I have an Apocalypse City-Chapter 518 - : Leading the Strangeness

Chapter 518: Chapter 518: Leading the Strangeness

“What? That’s a level 25 Lord BOSS. Even if it’s injured, it…” Li Xiu’s eyes widened in shock. Though he admired Song Jian’s strength, that was a boss of his level. Even if all of them attacked together, they might not be able to defeat it.

“Brother Song, isn’t this a little too risky?” Wang Qi looked at Song Jian with worry.

“No problem. If attacking the smaller monsters triggers the boss’s aggro, I’ll handle the boss. If not, just proceed as you suggested,” stated Song Jian.

For this operation, Song Jian felt that he was providing a safety net and also showcasing his strength to these guild players.

In his opinion, a level 25 Lord boss pose little threat to him. He had even eliminated several level 30 bosses with first stage combat power.

“Let’s bait one beast to test it,” finally suggested Wang Qi.

“Should I do it?” Wang Qi turned towards Song Jian and asked.

“Stay calm, boss. Don’t make a move!” Wang Qi’s face changed drastically. He had witnessed Song Jian’s baiting skills; there were many more small monsters here than there were on the road previously. If Song Jian were to bait the monsters, the entire garage of monsters might go wild.

“I’ll bait the monster instead,” Li Xiu sighed and offered.

“Alright, you handle it,” Song Jian shrugged, not really bothered.

Li Xiu held the orb and locked on the nearest monster. Its image immediately appeared in the orb.

As his lips parted slightly, Li Xiu gently expelled a musical note. The sound was akin to a woman’s moans. Almost everyone turned to him with odd expressions, causing Li Xiu to blush from embarrassment.

This was also why he hadn’t volunteered to bait the monsters before. Using this skill was simply too embarrassing. He was reluctant to use it in front of everyone else.

“Abyss language?” Song Jian’s eyebrows furrowed as he turned to look at Li Xiu.

The musical note released by Li Xiu resonated in the ears of the targeted zombie. It’s previously blood-red eyes gradually showed bewilderment. Wordlessly, it started to walk towards Li Xiu in what appeared to be an aimless manner.

“Perfect!” Wang Qi couldn’t help but exclaim. Turning his head, he said to Li Xiu, “Li Xiu, I didn’t realize you had this trick up your sleeve. From now on, you are our guild’s professional baiter!”

“Li Xiu, where did you learn that? That sound… it made my bones go soft. Fortunately, you’re not a woman…” A nearby player snickered as he put his arm around Li Xiu.

“If I were a woman, I still wouldn’t want you. Get lost!” Li Xiu grumbled and pushed him away indignantly.

If not for wanting to show off in front of Song Jian, Li Xiu would absolutely not use this trick with so many people watching.

Observing the orb in Li Xiu’s hands, Song Jian appeared deep in thought. Li Xiu’s move seemed similar to Abyss Temptation, but its power was evidently weaker. It could only control monsters for a short period of time.

When the small monster approached them, the zombie boss in the distance suddenly turned its head to look over.

“No good, we’ve triggered the boss’s aggro!” Wang Qi’s heart dropped. This was a situation that nobody wanted to confront.

Indeed, the boss who had been standing quietly unleashed a roar and charged towards them with its spear.

On the way, it knocked away the small monsters in its path and quickly arrived in front of them.

Seeing the ferocious boss, everyone instinctively retreated a step, and then all their gazes turned to Song Jian. freeweɓnøvel.com

Sung Jian gripped his sword and sprung into the air. He unfurled a pair of steel wings that shimmered with a metallic luster from his back. He made a twirl mid-air and ruthlessly swung his sword towards the boss;

“He…he can fly!? He has wings….” Li Xiu exclaimed in surprise, looking up.

“Stop gawking, start directing attention away from the boss’s minions!” Wang Qi smacked Li Xiu on the back of his head and shouted.

The fight between Song Jian and the boss attracted the surrounding small monsters. At least a dozen or so of the monsters roared and ran towards Song Jian, only to be drawn away and taken down quickly by the other players;

Song Jian, who was facing both the boss and the minions’ attack, directed all his sword skills at the boss;

Flash Thunder Strike!

Sword Silk!

Sweeping Sword Style!

Spiritual Sword Control Technique!

…

Song Jian had many sword techniques at his disposal. After one set of combos, the boss’s Vitality Points were reduced by more than two thousands, but Song Jian’s Vitality Points were also reduced by half.

“These damn monsters are too dense and annoying…” Song Jian said, frowning at the swarm of monsters surrounding him.

His fight with the boss wasn’t confined to a single spot. During the battle, he was bound to attract more nearby minions. Even though the other players were pulling them away one by one, there were always a dozen or so monsters chasing behind Song Jian.

Even if each small monster only took away ten or so Vitality Points, coupled with the boss’s damage, the toll was starting to add up over time.

Frost Shield!

Song Jian activated his shield, and the monsters’ attacks set off countless tiny icicles;

The eight hundred defense points held up for less than ten seconds, but these ten seconds allowed Song Jian to reduce the boss’s Vitality Points by more than a thousand.

Insight!

A bright light flashed in Song Jian’s eyes, and a blood-red crosshair appeared, scanning the boss’s body;

He quickly found his target – a spot on the boss’s wounded leg, where a purple gem was embedded. The gem was full of cracks, as if it were about to shatter. The crosshair lingered on the gem for a few seconds before vanishing.

During the subsequent fight, Song Jian noticed the boss was always unconsciously placing its injured leg behind and its movements seemed forced. It was as though a tiny stone was stuck in a tight mechanism, causing an overall sluggish performance.

The boss also knew its vulnerable spot and would always keep its center of gravity low and guard it diligently. Attacking this spot proved to be a challenge.

Song Jian focused on the boss’s wound, attacking it multiple times, only to have the boss dodge every attempt;

“This guy’s intelligence isn’t much lower than that of humans. It’s noticed that I’ve found its weak spot,” Song Jian squinted at the boss whose blood-red eyes were flashing cunningly.

Spear Thrust!

The boss suddenly roared and thrust its five to six-meter-long spear towards Song Jian. Its speed increased drastically, leaving several afterimages in the air.
