BXBX NOVEL Chapter 37 - 37: 37, Kill level 8 boss_l
“Let’s go, go, go. No more leveling up! We’re going to organize a team to clear the instances!” The Red-Eyed Black Dragon enthusiastically suggested, shoving his long sword back into his backpack.
“What now?” asked the gorgeous Swift, glancing at him. “Did Nemesis assign you another task?”
“How did you know?” Red-Eyed Black Dragon froze.
Before Swift could answer, the Sky Dragon lolita standing next to them chimed in with a broad smile. “When we saw you with that brown-nosing expression, uncle, we could tell who you were chatting with.”
Red -Eyed Black Dragon:
“Besides,” the lolita added, “you’ve never been this proactive with the guild leader’s tasks!”
Faced with ridicule from his teammates, Red -Eyed Black Dragon finally had enough.
He waved a hand dismissively. “Alright, let’s head back to the village.”
Without waiting for his team, he headed straight for the beginner’s village.
While on his way back, he opened his private chat to forward the chat logs between him and Nemesis to Emperor Blood Slays the Sky, his boss.
In addition, he added, “Guild Leader, I think we should stop following the ‘Chaotic Evil’ route.”
“I’ve discovered an excellent opportunity to collaborate with Nemesis. We would have more opportunities if we took the ‘Righteous’ path…”
Meanwhile, Su Yu arrived at the area where the level 8 wild monster, the Forest Brown Bear, roamed.
There were already bits and pieces of players in the level 8 area.
The players grinded from midnight till 10 am. They were the “dedicated ones.”
These leading players had already reached level 7, two levels higher than Su Yu.
But Su Yu didn’t care as everyone had only 12 hours of game time every day, so it barely mattered whether you level up earlier or later.
He wandered around the monster zone and found a place hidden from other players to start farming monsters.
He had become much more audacious with his leveling methods compared to before.
Prior, he used to fight one monster at a time, and his leveling speed was alright.
Now, he could draw three or four bears at once, using the [Flash Chain] with the spell scroll to quickly strike them down, tremendously boosting his efficiency!
Regrettably, the Forest Gray Bears were scattered around, wasting most of Su Yu’s time to find them.
If he could stay stationary with enough monsters in front of him, he could level up within a minute or two.
But having to pull monsters, it took him nearly 40 minutes to go from level 5 to level 6.
After 40 minutes, Su Yu successfully leveled up to 6.
His magic potential naturally increased to 63 points.
However, instead of stopping to check his status, Su Yu continued to attract and slay monsters.
His plan was to keep grinding till he was level 7, then he would move on to the level 9 monster zone.
After about 20 minutes, a bear roar considerably louder than the rest echoed throughout the forest.
“It’s here!” Su Yu’s eyes lit up.
He looked towards the source of the roar.
A massive dark brown bear, much larger than the typical brown bears, appeared in the clearing ahead.
[Forest Brown Bear leader Iv8 (Outstanding)]
Health point: 1200
Another outstanding quality boss!
Su Yu focused his attention on handling this boss.
Simultaneously, the ult roar of the Brown Bear Boss echoed across the wilderness. The dedicated leveling players heard the roar.
The players glanced towards Su Yu’s direction with “holy” faces:
“Hmm? Who’s the unlucky guy that triggered the level 8 boss?”
“Haha! You can ask people for help if you triggered a low-level boss, but if you triggered a level 8 boss, you can’t even run. It’s half an hour of wasted gaming time.”
“Yes! Let’s lit a candle for that unlucky guy.”
Players chatted nonsense among themselves, their hands never resting, continuing to fight the grey bears in front of them.
—13
-15
-17
A series of numbers appeared above the [Forest Gray Bear Iv8], indicating the decreasing health points of the bear.
However, after waiting for a moment, the players sensed something unusual.
The roaring did not stop!
“That’s not right! Why hasn’t that player died yet?”
“Not only did they not die, I heard the boss howling in pain? Monsters usually howl like that only when they lose 30% of their health in a very short time!”
“Who is fighting the Grey Bear Boss?”
Aoo__Hmm
While the players were shocked, the death-cry of the Grey Bear Boss reached their ears.
The players were dumbfounded. They all stood on their toes and looked towards Su Yu:
“What happened?”
“It’s been less than 8 seconds! The boss is down?”
“Did someone use a cheating device to kill the boss in seconds?”
Because they were too far away, they couldn’t see what was happening on Su Yu’s side.
As a result, many of the dedicated players stopped leveling and ran towards Su
But when they reached there, all they saw was the corpse of the [Forest Brown Bear Boss]. There was no trace of any other players.
The players examined the magic inflicted damage on the boss’s corpse and were in complete disbelief:
“What happened? Has the game system bugged and a Grey Bear Boss bug died?”
“Is it possible that a player killed it? I heard that Nemesis was in beginner’s village number 6, did he kill it?”
“I don’t think so! Even if Nemesis killed the boss, we should have seen him, right? Have any of you seen a player called ‘Nemesis’ or an anonymous player passing by?”
“Me neither.”
“Didn’t see him.”
The dedicated players all shook their heads.
At this moment, Su Yu dispelled [Invisibility Skill], and his figure reappeared behind a big tree, visible to all players.
“The spectators are such a bother. Let’s go to the level 9 monster zone.” Su Yu sighed a little, heading for the area where the level 9 monsters spawned.
Just a while ago, he faced off against the Gray Bear Boss.
Normally, with Su Yu’s 63 points of magic potential, it would take no more than 3 seconds to kill a 1200 health boss.
But during the fight with the Gray Bear Boss, the boss had used [Iron Fur] to reduce the damage taken and [Berserk Recovery] to gain a lot of health, so the whole fight dragged on for 8 seconds.
But it didn’t matter. Su Yu still efficiently disposed of the boss.
After the Gray Bear Boss was killed, Su Yu saw the nearby players rushing over, so he cast [Invisibility Skill] and left the area.
Having done a good job, he left without taking credit. He had his fair share of achievements but cared not for fame.
The drops from the Gray Bear Boss were notably generous as it was the first time this boss was killed on the server.
From the boss, he got the Cloth Armor Tunic [Brahma Wind Robe
(Outstanding) Iv8], Chainmail Gloves [Terror Scale Hand Guard (Outstanding) Iv8], Skill Scroll [Frost Nova (Outstanding)], Skill Scroll [Sliding Shovel (Ordinary)], and [Forest Brown Bear Boss’s Paw (Outstanding)]X1. Su Yu could use the Cloth Armor Tunic and [Frost Nova]
[Sliding Shovel] was a skill for archers, a representative skill for those pursuing the “physical skill” path in the future.
Su Yu casually learned the [Frost Nova] scroll and promoted it to a Rare quality.
[Frost Nova (Rare)]: Deal 100% spell power of frost damage to all enemies within 15 meters and freeze them for 4 seconds. Instant cast, cooldown time is 30 seconds and the mana cost is 30 points..
