Lu Li did not open the treasure chest immediately. Instead, he squatted down and touched the slippery ground. [Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Talk △ Net w

Sticky!
His first thought was that it was a Sludge Monster. He had dealt with too many of these monsters today. This sticky feeling was unique to the Sludge Monsters.
The Sludge Monsters did not have feet, so they left such marks when they moved on the ground.
The cave was very dark, but Lu Li could still see that the marks left by the Sludge Monster were different from those left outside. It was obviously a huge monster here.
Could it be the boss?
Lu Li had never known that there was a boss in the Skulk Rock. The Sludge Monsters in this small map had never been provoked, so naturally, no one had discovered this hidden cave in the rock.
However, other than the marks on the ground, there was no trace of the boss. Was the boss not at home?
Lu Li could not help but come to this ridiculous conclusion.
Most of the bosses in Dawnlight were not designed by the designers to stand there and wait for players to kill them. They had their own way of doing things.
Sometimes, you could even understand that they had their own lives and careers like normal people.
However, it was obvious that the boss was not at home. He did not dare to waste any more time. He quickly went to the treasure chest and used his Unlock skill on it. At the same time, he instructed the people outside, "Pay attention to the surroundings. I suspect there is a boss here. Once it is discovered, help me buy 30 seconds."
As expected, the moment Lu Li used his Unlock skill, the entire Skulk Rock area began to shake.
This shaking was not considered an attack, so it would not interrupt the Unlock skill. However, it would affect the channeling time. Lu Li forced himself not to care about what was happening. His focus was on the treasure chest.
The feeling of the earth shaking became stronger and stronger.
"Boss, we feel like something is coming out of the mud," the people outside said with trembling voices. The movement was too scary. It was as if an ancient beast had awakened from a deep sleep.
"The boss wants us to buy 30 seconds. Everyone, get ready to attack and buy time for the boss." Someone finally remembered their mission.
They had no intention of escaping. They were all prepared to fight to the death.
"Don't be silly. Hurry up and run. Just leave two Mages behind to stall them." Lu Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why didn't these people use their brains? It wasn't like they were fighting a Boss. Was there a need to leave a hundred people behind?
Everyone seemed to have woken up from a dream. They followed the path that was cleared when they came, leaving behind two mages.
Skulk Rock was actually a very large area. Everyone thought that they had cleared out most of the monsters here, but now they realized how naive they were. One by one, the Sludge Monsters emerged from the mud and gradually filled the entire area.
As the Ooze Monsters crawled up from the bottom, more and more violent movements could be heard.
One could only imagine the size of the Boss lurking in the depths of the Skulk Stone. Or perhaps, the mud of the Skulk Stone itself was a part of the Boss.
Judging from their auras … There was no way this guy was only level 50. If the monsters were all over level 50, then the Boss wouldn't just be level 50.
Lu Li felt that the two rocks that formed the cave were about to split apart. He was like a small boat in a storm that could capsize at any time, but he still tried his best to stabilize himself.
His Lockpicking was fast and slow at times, but he was very determined.
It was already past the halfway mark!
At this moment, time seemed to be moving very slowly. Lu Li had the illusion that it would take him a few minutes to complete a Lockpicking.
The mud had already seeped into the cave through the cracks …
"Boss, let's come back next time. We'll have more people to kill this Boss." The people outside had already seen the appearance of the Boss, which was why they felt even more despair.
It was a huge monster with a radius of tens of meters. From the part that was exposed, it had the appearance of a Sludge Monster.
Just the part that was exposed was enough. There were at least tens of thousands of Sludge Monsters gathered together. What was even more shocking was that the Sludge Monsters that had drilled out of the quagmire were still wriggling towards it.
They squirmed onto the Boss' body, continuously increasing its size.
Merge or devour?
That wasn't important. What was important was that the Boss didn't just stand there and devour the monsters. Instead, it moved as it devoured. It charged towards the boulder at a strange speed.
The two Mages desperately cast their spells at it, but it didn't budge at all.
It only had one target, and that was the thief that had stolen its belongings. The thief that had snuck into the mud while it was resting.
The treasure chest that the Troll Elder had hidden here had obviously changed owners.
Lu Li didn't look up. The voices in his ears had already disappeared.
Then, a soft 'ding' sound announced the return of the world. The treasure chest had been opened!
Lu Li pounced forward and opened the treasure chest the moment the Boss covered the boulder. He grabbed the item inside, then transformed back into a leopard and ran. Before transforming, he threw two bombs into the cracks.
After the Boss covered the boulder, it began to forcefully close the cracks between the boulder.
It definitely wasn't stupid. At the very least, it knew the principle of catching a turtle in a jar. As long as it closed the two boulders together, the thief inside could only enter its stomach to repent.
The bombs exploded one after the other.
Amidst the chaos, a rift that was even wider than before was forming.
The bombs were thrown by Lu Li, so they didn't deal any damage to him. However, the rocks that shot out weren't kind. They hit his body and dealt a string of damage.
This kind of natural damage was calculated according to the level of the map.
The explosion in a level 50 map dealt a huge amount of damage to Lu Li. His HP dropped by a large amount.
Fortunately, the second bomb was thrown a little further away, so it didn't affect as many people. Otherwise, he would have died on the spot. There was no way he would have been able to rush out of the chaos.
"Retreat!" Lu Li didn't forget to remind his teammates.
The two Mages who stayed behind were dumbfounded. They were the ones with the lowest levels in the group and were prepared to risk their lives to cover the retreat.
They didn't expect the Boss to ignore them. Just when they thought that Lu Li was dead for sure, they saw him using bombs to open up a path.
After Lu Li transformed into a leopard, he had shrunk a lot. Compared to the huge monster that was chasing him, he seemed even smaller.
