Although not being able to kill monsters in groups affected the speed of advancement, it was still relative! Zhang Yang's Attack Power could still be considered top-notch at the current stage. Of course, compared to Sun Xinyu and Wei Yan'er, it was still somewhat inferior!
However, with the Golden-eared Bear King as his mount, Zhang Yang was still a humanoid weapon. More importantly, his defense was strong. Along the way, he did not need to sit down and eat snacks to recover. When he ran out of Health Points, a single Rage Recovery would solve all problems. He was like a perpetual motion machine. This efficiency was not something that pure damage dealers like Sun Xinyu and Wei Yan'er could compare to!
After more than two hours, Zhang Yang rushed to the second checkpoint. Another boss blocked his way.
[Third Boss Balag] (Silver Boss, Humanoid)
Level: 82
Health Points: 820,000
Armor Points: 900
This was a green-skinned Orc. He was tall and burly, holding a huge mace in his right hand. From time to time, he would swing it a few times, smashing the nearby rocks into pieces. The Orcs were the most primitive of the four major races in the Alliance, but they were also the toughest. Balague was wearing a pair of shorts made of animal skin, and was almost naked. His long hair was more than a foot long, and it fluttered in the wind. The muscles all over his body were like lumps of meat!
However, Zhang Yang did not need to prepare for a mere Silver boss. After summoning the Mystic Water Turtle, Zhang Yang immediately used Shattering Spear to start a fight with the boss!
Balag was a Warrior-type monster. In addition to normal attacks, he could also use Whirlwind Slash and Destructive Strike! However, the cooldown time of a boss' skills was different from a player's. Balag's Whirlwind Slash was used every 20 seconds, while Destructive Strike was 30 seconds long. However, the 50% healing reduction effect also lasted for 30 seconds. There would not be any interruption!
Unfortunately, Zhang Yang did not need to heal at all. He could kill the boss with a single Health Point bar!
In less than two minutes, Balag surrendered to Zhang Yang's sword. He dropped a few Silver and Bronze equipment, as well as an alchemy formula that could be used to make Level 4 Healing Potions.
Although Level 4 Healing Potions could be bought directly in the shop, the price was too expensive. It was not as cost-effective as making one's own! Most importantly, Zhang Yang had Gold Comprehension, which allowed him to create a mutated potion. Who knew what kind of effect the mutated Level 4 Healing Potion would have?
After defeating the Boss, Zhang Yang switched his mount back to the big white bear and continued up the mountain.
The monsters along the way were all Elite monsters. As Zhang Yang fought the monsters, he collected the herbs along the way. This mountain was rich in Purple Heart Orchids. They could be used to refine Flame Potions and increase a Fire Mage's Attack Power.
After four hours, he had collected a total of 132 Purple Heart Orchids. He had also arrived in front of the third Boss.
[Second Leader Kruni] (Gold-ranked leader, humanoid creature)
Level: 83
Health Points: 1.66 million
Armor: 1500
After entering a Level 80 map, the value of a Gold-ranked boss would obviously decrease. If this was a Level 70 map, Krooney's Health Points would definitely be more than 8,000,000. However, in a Level 80 map, the Purple Gold bosses would be the main force, and the Gold-ranked bosses could only play a supporting role!
Curoney was actually a short goblin. Like the orcs, this race also had a green appearance. However, his body was even shorter than the dwarves. How did the dwarves get the title of "dwarves" in the first place?!
The characteristics of the goblins were that their noses were especially long and pointed, just like Pinocchio's. There was not a single strand of hair on their heads, which could be used as a mirror!
This Kruni was guarding the mountain path, dragging a giant axe that was even taller than him in his right hand and carrying a shield in his left. It was obvious that he was a tank!
Zhang Yang summoned the Blackwater Turtle. He was now full of confidence. He had the courage and strength to fight a Gold-ranked boss alone!
Spear of Destruction!
-5380!
It was a critical hit!
Krooney suddenly let out a roar and rushed towards Zhang Yang with his giant axe. He shouted, "Human, how dare you ambush the great Kruni! Kruni will cut you into pieces and make soup out of you!"
Zhang Yang turned around and rode on the Blackwater Turtle, quietly waiting for the boss to arrive.
-6024!
-7423!
-1976!
A normal attack from the Blackwater Turtle, a Tear, and a slash from Zhang Yang instantly dealt 15,000 damage to the boss!
"Damn it, you've hurt Kruni!" The boss screamed and swung the sharp axe in his hand.
Block!
-383! Block Reflection!
-1516! Shield Slam.
Unfortunately, if Zhang Yang could gather the five pieces of the Titan set, Shield Slam would be able to deal double damage, and his attack power would increase by a lot!
Block!
-582!
The boss's Armor was too high. Zhang Yang naturally used five layers of Broken Armor. However, when he was on the second layer, Kruni suddenly raised his shield and blocked his attack! Moreover, with Zhang Yang's high damage reduction, he was still hit by Block Reflection and dealt 582 damage. This meant that the basic attack power of the boss's Block Reflection was at least 5,000!
As expected of a boss. If a player wanted to achieve 5,000 points of Block Reflection, they would need 5,000 points of Strength! Zhang Yang currently only had 1,133 points of Strength. He was still far from that!
This was a battle between tank and tank, and Armored Warrior against Armored Warrior!
Tanks had always been called tortoises because their defense was as solid as a tortoise's shell! So, now it was a battle between two, no, three Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
Like Zhang Yang, the boss could use the skill Block to avoid damage. However, this skill had a long cooldown of 15 seconds, which was far inferior to Zhang Yang's 6 seconds cooldown!
A tank that didn't add skill points to Block was really not a good tank!
Kouruni possessed practically every skill a Fighter could: Oscillating Wave, Thunderous Bash, and Shield Bash. Fortunately, he didn't have the passive skill, Shield Guard. The damage he received would only be reduced by his armour, and he wouldn't receive the additional 20% damage reduction.
The boss' damage was still very high. A single attack could deal more than 6,000 damage. Even after subtracting the six-second Block Damage Reduction, it was still more than 2,000 damage per second!
In less than a minute, Zhang Yang's Health Points had fallen to rock bottom.
Rage Recovery!
+120360!
A super green healing number that could overshadow Han Ying Xue's jumped up above Zhang Yang's head, instantly bringing his Health Points back to full!
On the other hand, the boss's Health Points had fallen to 74% under the combined attacks of Zhang Yang and the Mystic Water Turtle!
In other words, Zhang Yang needed to hold on for four minutes before he could kill the boss!
Normally speaking, although a Gold Grade boss in a Level 80 map was greatly weakened and had lost a lot of Health Points, it was still not something that a player could solo! However, Zhang Yang had too many life-saving methods. Rage Recovery, Fountain of Life, Health Potions, Mutated Troll Health Potion, Shield Wall. If one attack didn't work, he could always reload and wait for another attack!
Especially the Fountain of Life, which recovered Health Points in the form of a percentage. Zhang Yang's Health Points were as high as 110,000, so 50% was 55,000!
Zhang Yang activated his skills one after another, drinking a Health Potion, Fountain of Life, and when the special effect of his necklace was triggered, he could absorb 5,000 damage. The poor boss really couldn't take it anymore. Zhang Yang forcefully cut down his Health Points to 10%!
Of course, Zhang Yang also paid a considerable price. Apart from Shield Wall, he basically used all of his skills.
"Ding! Krooney has gone berserk! "
After hitting 10% of its Health Points, the boss's body flashed and it entered a berserk state!
-15782!
Krooney instantly turned into a fierce man. With a swing of his axe, the damage dealt to Zhang Yang soared!
He had kept Shield Wall in case the boss went berserk! Zhang Yang decisively activated Shield Wall!
The special effect of Titan Barrier could extend Shield Wall's duration by five seconds. Zhang Yang's Shield Wall lasted for 15 seconds!
Slash! Mad Slash!
9%, 8%, 7% … 3%!
After 15 seconds, Krooney only had 3%, 50,000 Health Points left!
2%!
1%!
0%!
"Ding! You have killed Krooney. Obtained 1.66 million Experience Points! "
Thud!
The Goblin boss raised its two legs, threw its axe, and died on the ground, leaving behind a pile of loot.
Zhang Yang's gaze was immediately attracted by an axe that emitted a golden glow. He quickly reached out to loot it.
[Goblin Beheading Axe] (Gold Grade, One-handed Axe)
Attack Power: 732-1132
Attack Interval: 2.6 seconds
Damage per second: 358
Equip: Increases your critical hit rate by 1%.
Level Requirement: 80
Unfortunately, it was not the best 2.8 seconds! But it was still a Level 80 Gold Grade weapon. After appraising it, its damage was much higher than the Xuanming Sword!
From now on, he would use the Goblin Beheading Axe to kill a single monster and the Xuanming Sword to kill a group of monsters!
Zhang Yang put the Goblin Beheading Axe into his backpack and looked at the boss' other drops. Krooney's drops were really miscellaneous. There was a Chaos Bead that increased his backpack space, a Magic Scroll, and a Rune Blueprint.
[Magic Scroll: Extreme Excitement] (Consumable)
Use: Increases the Attack Power of party members (up to 10 people) by 30%, but reduces their Armor by 50%. Lasts for 30 seconds.
Level Requirement: 80
This scroll was very powerful when fighting bosses. Anyway, the damage output classes' Armor was pitifully low to begin with. It did not matter if it was reduced by 50%, but the 30% increase in damage was a real deal! In particular, all nine members of Zhang Yang's party had the skill Celestial Flurry, which increased their damage by 30% … This was no joke!
After using the Chaos Bead, Zhang Yang's backpack space reached 90 slots. Unfortunately, there were too few Chaos Beads. Even if players obtained one, they would use it themselves. Very few would sell it. Even if Zhang Yang wanted to increase his backpack space to 200 slots, he could not!
Now that he had learned Herbalism, and because he had an epiphany in Alchemy, he had all kinds of Mutant Potions on him. His backpack space was really not enough! (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
