Grab the BOSS, the abnormal mermaid king

Gurgle—

Large bubbles rose from the lake.

The target was unclear.

But through the surface of the lake, a huge shadow could be seen.

It should be a BOSS.

It was just that this Merman King remained underwater, never coming ashore.

There were also no rocks nearby to approach it.

“Poof—!”

A small jet of water appeared.

Lin Xuan’s eyes widened.

Holy cow!

This Merman King was actually provoking him!

Lin Xuan waved his right hand and released a Soul Fire towards the Merman King.

The eerie green flame was shot down by an ice arrow from a distance before it even reached the lake's surface.

Lin Xuan frowned slightly.

He looked towards where the ice arrow came from.

Not far away, five figures were sprinting towards him.

Their equipment glowed with special effects, including orange, purple, and even golden light.

And judging by their weapons, they had warriors, mages, and priests among them.

Clearly, they were a well-coordinated team that had been together for a long time.

“Quick, a BOSS has spawned here!” one of them shouted excitedly.

“With such a large body, it must be the Merman King!” another echoed.

“Haha, good luck, we encountered a BOSS as soon as we entered the Relic,” the one who looked like the captain among the five also laughed.

The five quickly arrived beside Lin Xuan, looking excitedly at the lake.

However, they didn't mention a single word about the ice arrow from earlier.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan chuckled inwardly.

From the looks of it, he had encountered people trying to steal his BOSS.

“Brother, you should leave. We’re lucky, so we won’t make things difficult for you,” a professional assassin holding a dagger said to Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan hadn't even replied yet.

A female professional among the five chimed in, “That’s right, you dare to enter the Relic alone.”

“It’s only because our team is kind, otherwise we would have cleared you out long ago.”

“Stop talking nonsense with him. If he doesn’t leave, just clear him out.”

“You guys chat, hehe, there’s a foreign girl with white hair over there, she looks like a Summoner, I’m going to get acquainted.”

The professionals spoke one after another, completely disregarding Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and chuckled, “If you want to steal the BOSS, just say so. Why all the nonsense?”

“What do you mean ‘steal the BOSS’? Did you even trigger combat just now?”

“If you can’t speak properly, then…”

Whoosh—

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xuan stopped wasting words with them.

Soul Fire was instantly released.

Immediately after.

Over five hundred Skeleton Soldierss appeared.

“How dare you! You actually dared to attack us!”

“So it’s an Necromancer, no wonder he dared to enter the Relic alone!”

“Stop talking nonsense, go!”

The few of them had ample combat experience and worked together seamlessly.

The Skeleton Soldierss were cleared out by more than half before they could even touch them.

However, Lin Xuan didn't have time to dawdle with them.

The speed of entering the underground space of the Relic depended on how quickly professionals killed monsters.

He didn't want to waste time.

“Whoosh—!”

The assassin from the five-person team stealthily approached him from behind.

The dagger cut through the air.

It stabbed towards the back position corresponding to Lin Xuan’s heart.

-9600!

The moment the nearly ten thousand damage value floated up, Lin Xuan had already Flash-ed backward, appearing behind the assassin.

“How is that possible? You triggered a critical hit, and you’re not dead!”

The assassin looked disbelieving.

Lin Xuan chuckled in his eyes, releasing a Bone Cage to lock the assassin inside.

Followed by Soul Fire and Grasp of Death.

Under two attacks, the assassin was instantly left with critical health and knelt on the ground.

“He actually didn’t die.”

Lin Xuan was also a bit surprised, but he quickly understood.

These few people in the team should all be level seventy-nine professionals.

Their equipment was probably all set gear.

And the assassin had just used a life-saving skill.

In the distance, the priest in the team saw the assassin's critical health and quickly cast a healing spell.

Lin Xuan finally realized his own weakness.

He lacked offensive skills too much.

Except for Splitting Mount Hua, other skills couldn’t instantly kill people.

Of course, this might be related to his focus on developing a summoner build in the early stages.

“From now on, when I level up, I’ll prioritize unlocking burst damage skills.”

In the distance, Irena and Silly Cow had already noticed the battle here.

They were just about to rush over.

Lin Xuan waved his hand.

He wanted to deal with these few people himself.

The Summon Undead skill had already refreshed.

With a rumble, the first batch of Skeleton Soldierss exploded.

Immediately after, another batch of Skeleton Soldierss appeared and exploded again.

Under two waves of Corpse Explosion, the five-person team was almost entirely at critical health.

Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.

It seemed these few were indeed an elite team.

They all had life-saving skills.

At the same time.

Although Lin Xuan had cleared out a large crowd at the entrance.

It was only the first wave after all.

In this world, hundreds more people had gradually entered.

Some people saw the conflict here and intended to bypass it.

But upon seeing the huge shadow lurking beneath the lake, they instantly realized there was a BOSS.

BOSS monsters in the Relic represented speed, the most important resource.

At this time.

At least three teams were already rushing towards them, wanting to fish in troubled waters.

Even Irena was already in battle with one of the teams.

Lin Xuan saw this and no longer held back.

However, among the five people who retreated with critical health, recovering while clearing Skeleton Soldierss, the captain quickly waved his hand.

“Little brother, stop quickly!”

“More connections mean more paths. How about we coexist peacefully?”

“The teams rushing over are all foreign forces. If we fight among ourselves, it wouldn’t be good if they reaped the benefits.”

“Whoosh—!”

Soul Fire, Grasp of Death, and Bone Cage skills were released.

Lin Xuan showed no mercy to them.

Seeing his attack, the five-person team quickly dodged.

The female professional priest among them looked furious.

“Why are you like this?”

“When foreign forces come, we should unite against them. You really don’t know what’s good for you!”

“That’s right, little brother, how about we cooperate?”

“Heh heh, cooperate with you?” Lin Xuan smiled, “You’re not trying to unite against outsiders; you’re afraid of dying.”

Boom—

Around the Fish King Pool, the sky and earth suddenly turned pitch black.

Immediately after.

Countless snowflakes fell.

The lake water near the shore also began to freeze.

Everyone who approached here saw their vision change dramatically in an instant.

Dozens of professionals discovered.

They had entered a space of ice and snow.

“This is, an alternate dimension?”

“This is a Domain? Have we encountered a World-Class BOSS?”

“Look over there, with such a large body, it’s a Queen Ant!”

“Why are there so many Undead Mermaids?”

“Why can’t we get out!”

“Not good, it’s a professional’s super-large awakening skill!”

After the professionals entered, there was a moment of panic.

However, some quickly cleared their thoughts.

But no matter how they tried.

They couldn't leave this space.

They could only start killing thousands of Undead Mermaids within the Frost Domain.

At the same time.

Lin Xuan had already transformed into his Lich King Form.

After pulling all nearby professionals into the Frost Domain, he did not enter to kill them.

Instead, he stayed outside, preparing to kill the BOSS first.

In the Longmen Grottoes Relic, to explore deeper.

One BOSS of each level must be killed.

This BOSS was his, and no one could take it from him.

“Hmm, such a big commotion, yet it’s still in that position.”

The ice effect brought by the Frost Domain almost spread over half the surface of the Fish King Pool.

But that Merman King BOSS underwater was still lurking beneath the original lake surface.

This situation seemed as if it was guarding something.

(I’m sick, the remaining one or two chapters will be posted during the day.)
