Chapter 34 - 34 BOSS: Family, who understands.
As the sky filled with icy needles, they immediately enveloped the flame rats below.
Under the attack of Yao Zhixue and the mysterious being she summoned, the skin and fur of these flame rats were easily penetrated, splattering droplets of fresh blood and bits of flesh.
The coldness entered their bodies, drastically reducing the speed of the flame rats.
“Well done!”
Amidst his praise, Zheng Cheng lunged forward once more.
Merely with agility and strength, he was able to overpower these flame rats.
Watching Zheng Cheng cutting down one rat after another amidst the swarm, Yao Zhixue could hardly believe her eyes.
What was happening?
A priest… wielding a large cleaver, weaving in and out among a group of creatures?
Are you sure this is a priest?! He looks more like a butcher!
“Squeak-!”
Suddenly, the ratman—who had been watching the scene from afar—moved.
It’s as if he knew, once his underlings were done for, he would have to face Zheng Cheng and Yao Zhixue on his own.
While his underlings were still available, he surprisingly drew out a… bonestaff from his waist!
A flaming red bonestaff!
“Squeak squeak-!”
This strange chanting echoed from the mouth of the ratman.
The flaming red bonestaff in his hand started to emit a red halo.
Instantly, the three flame rats attacking Zheng Cheng went berserk.
Their furs stood on end, their eyeballs turned crimson red, and a crimson glow surrounded their sharp teeth.
Despite Zheng Cheng’s attack, they rushed forward without hesitation.
With one strike, Zheng Cheng killed the first berserk flame rat.
Simultaneously, the other two took this opportunity to launch a fierce attack.
“Damn! The BOSS is a mage!”
Zheng Cheng cursed under his breath, what was happening with these flame rats, why did their speed suddenly increase?
Bloodlust?
Berserk?
Among all the bosses, those with ranged magic abilities are the most difficult to deal with.
They use their minions to lock down the Professionists, while damaging them from afar.
Effortlessly overpowering the Professionists.
Or even the entire Professionist team.
No wonder it is so difficult to get through the Flame Rat’s Nest, which is a Hell-level instance.
A ranged magic wielding BOSS can wipe out half the team in one fell swoop!
“Whoosh!”
While he retreated, Yao Zhixue raised her hand again, summoning an ice wall to rise from the ground.
The two frenzied flame rats immediately crashed into it.
“Squeak squeak-!”
Not far away, the ratman raised his staff again.
Three more flame rats shrieked. Their bodies enlarged and their speed recovered, they rushed towards Zheng Cheng like three electric cars.
“Bang!”
Almost at the same time, a faint blue-green flame ignited on their bodies, illuminating their figures like ghosts.
The fastest fire rat clawed towards Zheng Cheng’s chest.
Zheng Cheng took a deep breath, grabbed the ice wall with one hand, and jumped onto it.
He swung his knife and plunged it straight into the flame rat’s head!
“Squeak-!”
The flame rat let out a shriek and was killed on the spot.
Zheng Cheng’s hand trembled, his mind felt like it was pricked by a needle, causing him to stagger and almost fall to the ground.
“Zheng Cheng!”
Yao Zhixue shouted in alarm. The ice goblin next to her waved its hand, causing a blizzard to rise from the ground, immediately blowing away the two flame rats that were about to pounce.
“I’m fine!”
Zheng Cheng yelled back, “Don’t come over! There is something fishy about this blue flame!”
In the blizzard, Zheng Cheng dismembered the flame rat with a back-handed slash, revealing yet another roast flame rat tail in his hand.
Agility +1!
Up until now, he had devoured sixteen roasted flame rat tails.
Agility points have reached 20!
This place is after all a magic crystal vein. The blizzard had only lasted for a few seconds before dispersing.
Zheng Cheng’s eyes were locked on the Fire Rat near him.
Beside him, there were two even larger Fire Rats guarding it.
“Shoot the horse before you shoot the man, catch the king before you catch the thieves!”
He muttered to himself, took advantage of the height of the ice wall, and charged towards the Fire Rat.
20 points of agility made him much faster than these Fire Rats.
He almost turned into a phantom, and rushed out more than ten meters in an instant.
“Squeak-!”
The Fire Rat also noticed Zheng Cheng’s actions, and started squealing. The two Rats guarding him immediately charged at him with no regard for their own lives.
But the Fire Rat himself, quickly backed away.
Taking advantage of the innate agility of the Fire Rat tribe, he was surprisingly quick.
As he was retreating, he raised his hand again.
The two charging Fire Rats suddenly enlarged their bodies and the aqua flame on them reignited.
“Damn!”
Seeing this, Zheng Cheng secretly cursed, “Trying to kite me?”
He abruptly stopped, and as the two Fire Rats leaped towards him, he immediately raised his hand!
Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique!
“Puff!”
“Puff puff!!”
“Squeak, squeak, squeak-!!!”
Almost instantly, the Fire Rats that leaped at him, bodies bristling and bathed in aqua flames, immediately sprayed a large amount of black and red liquid from their hindquarters.
Bright red fresh blood spurted out like a fountain, splattering all over the ground.
Both of the Fire Rats immediately fell to the ground, convulsing wildly. Their lower bodies were in total chaos and a horrible sight to behold.
“What…”
Zheng Cheng looked confused, “Why are these two Fire Rats reacting so strongly?”
“That’s it… the Fire Rat BOSS’s skill must be some kind of bloodlust ability that accelerates the blood circulation of the underlings to increase their speed and attack power. ”
“But if the blood circulation speed is increased, my Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique would act as a catalyst..
“Anal fissure…
“Squeak-I!!”
Just as he thought of this, the Fire Rat that was running away in the distance let out a horrible scream.
His lower body also sprayed out black and red liquid, and his skinny little legs were shaking violently.
Every step he took left a puddle of fresh blood behind. He bent over and hunched over, looking like a little old man.
He supported himself against a wall with one hand, and harshly glared back at Zheng Cheng.
From Zheng Cheng’s point of view, he could even see tears in the Fire Rat’s eyes.
Who can understand, right? I was just eating hotpot and singing, and suddenly these masked bandits came to rob me~!
So aggrieved!
Seeing that damned human chasing after him again, he quickly turned his head and tried to escape.
He stumbled after taking one step due to the excruciating pain from his lower body and fell to the ground.
“Squeak-”
“Squeak, squeak-!”
With the constant gushing of the viscous liquid, wave after wave of agonizing pain shot through his lower body as if it were tidal.
This made his entire body shudder uncontrollably, and he couldn’t even move a finger.
“Squeak-!!”
He let out another scream and found that the damned human had already run in front of him.
A large knife directly slashed down on his own head!
“Puff!”
Consumed by pain, the Fire Rat twitched again.
“Kite me! Let’s see how you kite me now!”
Zheng Cheng slashed at the Fire Rat’s head again and again with his knife, not stopping until he decapitated it and truly killed this BOSS.
A large amount of black, ink-like soul power immediately surged out of it and entered Zheng Cheng’s body!
