Chapter 234: Shadow Wraith Servant
What play is this?
Although he said that, the Magic Crystal Cannon was already glowing red, and just being nearby could feel the intense heat. If what he said was true…
This cannon could potentially create a massive explosion, and none of the people present would escape.
Seeing that Starry hesitated, Fenghuayue also didn’t act recklessly.
“Hey… did you all figure it out?” Nita seemed to smile self-mockingly.
Then, with his right hand clenched into a fist, he decisively pressed the button.
In an instant, the magic crystal decomposed into energy, gathering at the cannon’s mouth, while the barrel could not withstand such high temperatures and began to warp!
Once the barrel ruptured… such a close-range energy explosion…
This person had gone mad!
But Nita felt no regret, instead he shouted crazily, “Ahhhh!! I’m fed up with being enslaved by the undead! Come with me to hell!”
Before the undead magic could backlash, the explosive cannon fire devoured the deranged warrior commander first.
-14268
-1825
Everyone within a 10-yard radius took explosive damage without exception.
[Starry] promptly activated the Ice Flow Shield, blocking in front of Fenghuayue, and at the same time put away the Star Cat.
Both of their health points were below 2k.
The Shadow Warrior took a few thousand damage from the explosion, which was not fatal compared to its total health of 47k.
However, the shockwave from the explosion directly knocked them to the ground.
For the time being, it seemed impossible to harass them.
By the way, Fenghuayue was bounced onto a convex area of the city wall, while [Starry] pressed down on her.
Feeling the softness behind her, Chen Chen’s face turned red.
“Miss, what’s wrong? Your face is so red? Could it be… that time of the month?” Kurei worriedly questioned. This was a critical moment in battle, and if she couldn’t hold on, it would be better to leave early.
“I… I’m fine, just a little excited.”
“Excited?” Kurei was taken aback, then realized, “I understand! Miss, you’re excited for the upcoming battle, aren’t you?”
Wow, you got it all figured out.
“Yes… that’s it.” Bi Chen nodded.
In fact, she was just very comfortable leaning against Fenghuayue.
“….Starry” knew exactly what Bi Chen was thinking, gritting her teeth, “No **! Turn off the sensory sharing!”
Hehe! This isn’t a random **! It’s just following the instincts of the body. Bi Chen attempted to argue internally. Moreover, being in a connected state cannot be easily turned off!!
“I don’t care!!”
“Starry… this isn’t the time to be chatting with others… you pressing on me makes it hard for me to move.”
“…Ah, sorry!” [Starry] finally realized she hadn’t gotten up yet.
……
Although there was a deviation, the result was good; a Magic Crystal Cannon just self-destructed.
Moreover, ten Shadow Warriors were blown down as well.
This also meant that the pressure on the players climbing the wall significantly decreased.
Of course, within less than half a minute, a player seized the opportunity while the Shadow Warrior was distracted and climbed up with effort!
“Hahahaha! I’m the first to stand on the city wall…” Jian Huo Ranyuan laughed wildly until he saw Starry and Fenghuayue…
His voice abruptly stopped.
How is that possible!? He should be the first one up here!
“Uncle, if you keep dawdling, you’ll get killed!” Fenghuayue reminded him.
Only then did Jian Huo Ranyuan react, hurriedly dodging to the right to avoid the attack, while more and more players climbed up from behind.
“Block them!” At this shout, almost all the Shadow Warriors moved.
Meanwhile, Starry looked at the guy commanding them.
Check Attributes!
Shadow Wraith Servant (Leader-level Boss):
Rarity: Gold Grade
Level: 38
Health: 250,000
Magic Attack: 1201-1578
Physical Defense: 432
Magical Defense: 679
Skills: Shadow Erosion, Abyss Embrace, Blink, Life Drain
Description: A shadow mage hidden in the darkness, quietly taking your life when you’re not paying attention.
It really is a boss.
Shadow Erosion is that armor-piercing move; I’ve seen it before.
What’s particularly concerning are the skills that follow; I don’t know in what form they will be launched. Moreover, the boss’s magic attack is as high as 1578, which definitely wouldn’t be bearable for the attributes of the Star Hunter.
The Shadow Wraith Servant obviously noticed them too.
“Hmph… seizing an opportunity and then defending further is quite an intelligent decision.” True to its name, its voice carried a chilling feeling.
“What does it matter if you defend further?” [Starry] raised an eyebrow, unafraid.
At the same time, she flipped the Qiu Yue Sword in her hand, executing the Frenzied Sword Technique!
The sword body shook wildly, and received boundless power in return—it was the Qiu Yue Strike!
The boss did not dodge, clearly not taking Starry’s attack seriously. Based on his experience, adventurers at this stage couldn’t even harm Shadow Warriors; it was not a concern.
As for the previous explosion, it was just a human soldier taking advantage; he’ll need to report to the lord to improve the magic next time.
The invisible sword energy pierced through the night sky, flying straight to the Shadow Wraith Servant’s front.
The next moment, in the dim light, it erupted with a terrifying five-digit damage!
-36720
A critical hit + Qiu Yue Strike + Frenzied Sword Technique, actually dealt 15% of the boss’s health in one move!
Not only that, but he was pushed back by the sword energy, nearly losing his balance.
“You… there are actually such existences among adventurers!” The Shadow Wraith Servant exclaimed incredulously at the cracked damage.
[Starry] did not reply; at this time, it was best to press the attack while the momentum was high, ideally suppressing him so he couldn’t use his skills.
Thousand Flash Step!
Moving under the skill’s boost, the distance to the boss gradually closed, while Starry was faster than Fenghuayue’s arrow raining down.
-1558
The Armor-Piercing Arrow hit the enemy a step before her.
The effect of armor reduction appeared, and looking at the panel, only about 300 physical defense remained.
Finally, the Shadow Wraith Servant panicked, a strong radiance flashing from his body.
This prelude was all too familiar to Chen Chen; it was Blink!
Waiting for this move!
Almost simultaneously, Starry activated Charge, coinciding with the position of Blink!
The boss had just turned and hadn’t had time to launch an attack,
Bang!
The rapid afterimage flew in, leaving him in a dazed state.
Frenzied Triple Slash!
-6637
-10041
-13620
The high damage effect of the triple slash was exceptional; the boss was at least rendered immobile for a quarter of his health!
Meanwhile, Fenghuayue’s arrows continued to provide support, depleting a fifth of the boss’s health in the time of one face-off!
“Come help quickly…” he started to say, but before he could finish, the Star Cat’s Frost Claw froze him into an ice block.
The preceding sounds were drowned by cannon fire; the Shadow Warriors were busy dealing with players, with only a few noticing the situation here, intending to rush over.
“I’ll hold them off!” Fenghuayue quickly changed targets.
“Alright! The situation is urgent, and it’s wise to have the long range Fenghuayue buy time now.
As for Starry, she pushed herself to maximize damage through the interplay of skills and normal attacks.
Chaotic numbers flew, and the 250k health was instantly halved.”
