"Can … can we do it?" The lone ranger asked in surprise. Even Ye Yeshu, who was much stronger than him, couldn't imagine it.
After all, this was a level 50 Epic boss. A Grandmaster of Combat and two Assassins couldn't form an offensive and defensive formation. If they blindly interfered, they wouldn't be able to do anything. If they were killed by the boss, it would be a miracle.
Wang Yu said, "Yes, I can hold him back, but my attacks can't keep up. You guys just deal as much damage as you can."
It wasn't the first time that Wang Yu had encountered a situation where he couldn't deal damage. After all, the boss's attributes were much stronger than Wang Yu's.
No matter how good Wang Yu's skills were, when faced with a boss whose attributes were higher than his, all he could do was slowly grind it to death.
Leon the Assassin, in particular, had thick skin. Compared to a Warrior boss, he was even more helpless. Wang Yu was at his wit's end. Three people were always faster than one.
The lone traveler said worriedly, "You must hold him back …"
"No problem."
As he spoke, the Assassin caught up to Wang Yu again. He raised his dagger and stabbed at Wang Yu's throat.
The back of the waist, neck, heart, and head were all prime targets for Assassins. The Assassin class was all about killing in one hit. It had always been this simple and brutal.
At this time, Wang Yu's Afterimage Punch was off cooldown. He used his afterimage to block the Assassin's attack. Then, Wang Yu circled behind the Assassin, switched his weapon to a dagger, and stabbed at the Assassin's back.
As the saying goes, an inch longer is an inch stronger. Correspondingly, the longer the weapon, the more its attack speed was limited.
Against a boss that was far more agile than him, Wang Yu didn't dare to use a long weapon. If he used gloves, Wang Yu wasn't confident enough to fight the boss bare-handed. The best way to deal with this was to fight daggers with daggers.
The Hitman Assassin was first hit by the afterimage, then stabbed in the vitals, losing nearly 200 HP. The enraged Hitman Assassin Assassin did not even turn his head as he stabbed backwards with his dagger.
Wang Yu blocked the Assassin's dagger with a backhand. At the same time, he used the momentum of the Assassin's dagger to tilt his body to the side and flash to the Assassin's side. Then, Wang Yu turned from the Assassin's side to the Assassin's front, and with a backhand thrust, he stabbed the Assassin's chest.
Another weak damage popped up. Wang Yu's heart sank to the bottom … Motherf * cker, stabbing the heart only caused such a small amount of damage. This Assassin was really hard to deal with.
Before Wang Yu could put away his dagger and retreat, the assassin's dagger came down again. Instead of retreating, Wang Yu moved forward. His dagger lightly flicked up and caught the assassin's wrist.
Hitman's attack was halted by Wang Yu's attack. Wang Yu took the opportunity to wrap his hand around Hitman's wrist, using the dagger in his hand to block Hitman's attack.
The assassin was slightly taken aback. With a flip of his free left hand, he pulled out another dagger to stab Wang Yu. Wang Yu lowered his head, grabbed the assassin's arm with both hands, and pressed down. The assassin was immediately pressed down, and his right hand stabbed empty air.
Wang Yu used his right hand to block Hitman's right hand, and with his left hand, he pulled out another dagger. Just like before, he once again blocked Hitman's left hand.
At this time, Hitman's arms were crossed, and Wang Yu's dagger was stuck at a very strange angle. The four daggers were stuck together, and it was impossible to break free with brute force. Hitman's wrist couldn't move at all, and he could only move his arm.
If Hitman threw away his dagger at this time, he would definitely be able to break free. But in Rebirth, if a boss voluntarily threw away a weapon, it would be considered a dropped item … Even an AI NPC couldn't throw away a dagger under the system's mandatory settings.
A pitiful Level 50 Epic boss was being forcefully held back by a Level 35 player.
"Attack him!" At this moment, Wang Yu gave Lone Ranger and One Page Book the command to attack.
The two Thieves grabbed their daggers and ran over with Quickness. Backstab, Slit Throat, and all sorts of other skills were thrown at Hitman.
…
A string of damage values floated up above Hitman's head.
Hitman flew into a rage. He swung his arm, trying to kill the enemy in front of him.
But in the system's settings, if the weapon couldn't hit the target, the target wouldn't take damage.
It was just like when Wang Yu used wrestling skills to throw people. The victim would only receive damage from the fall, but not from Wang Yu himself.
At this moment, no matter how much strength Hitman used to swing his arm, Wang Yu seemed to be glued to Hitman's arm. He swayed left and right with Hitman's arm, floating up and down, dispersing the Hitman's strength one by one.
"Damn it, I won't let you go!"
Hitman was like an elephant that had fallen into a swamp. He had all his strength, but he couldn't use it at all. He was so angry that he cried out.
Lone Ranger and One Page Book were also very good at playing. When they saw that Wang Yu was firmly entangled with the boss, and that their attacks weren't doing much damage, they simply gave up on their skills and used their daggers to attack Hitman.
Assassins were Agility-type classes. Their attack speed wasn't inferior to Archers.
…
The two of them quickly swung their daggers. Five minutes later, Hitman's full health bar actually showed a small gap.
"How much longer can Niu Ge hold on?"
Seeing this scene, the lone traveler was delighted and asked Wang Yu.
If Wang Yu could keep holding Hitman's aggro, then it wouldn't be difficult to kill him.
Although Wang Yu was currently being tossed around, his expression was very relaxed. When he heard Lone Ranger's words, he even took the time to reply, "As long as you want …"
Wasn't that right? If this was in real life, it would take a lot of Stamina to keep a person occupied like this. But in the game, there was no such thing as Stamina. A player's Stamina was basically unlimited. After being tossed around by the boss for so long, Wang Yu didn't feel tired at all.
Moreover, even if there was a Stamina setting, with Hitman tossing a big guy around, who knew who would die of exhaustion first?
"Then you have to hold on," Lone Traveler answered. Then, he and Yi Yeshu continued to swing their saber again and again.
Epic-level bosses were difficult to deal with because they had many trump cards. If Hitman was killed by three smurfs, he would probably be laughed at by his peers.
"Ha!"
Just as the Lone Wanderer was getting into a frenzy, the Hitman Assassin bellowed. Red light flashed out from his body as he activated Overlord Body. One Page Book and the Lone Wanderer were sent flying.
Wang Yu and Hitman were face-to-face. He immediately saw the prerequisites of Hitman's skills. He decisively threw away his daggers and retreated to the side.
