54 -51: One-on-one Duel, Group Fight
No good, this is probably going to end badly!
The moment Xiao Jie saw that enormous rat, his scalp tingled instantly.
A Level 9 giant rat, with a large group of big rats behind it, and here I am at only Level 3, how can I fight this?
As expected, this game is full of surprises, who would’ve thought an old granary would burst forth with such a swarm of monsters.
But it’s too late for regrets, there’s only one thing to do now!
“Run!” Xiao Jie yelled, turning on his heels to flee.
Joking aside, facing a Level 9 beast alongside a cluster of little monsters, if I get surrounded, I’d be killed in an instant.
I Want to Be Immortal clearly hesitated for a moment.
Although Xiao Jie had said before to run if he screamed to do so, the past two days of monster hunting and leveling went so smoothly that he completely forgot about that, until he saw the giant rat leading a pack of pig-like big rats charging out of the granary, and then he rapidly turned to run.
But it was already too late.
In the blink of an eye, the giant rat was upon him, launching a fierce pounce.
I Want to Be Immortal hurriedly rolled to dodge, yet due to the giant rat’s massive size, the pounce covered a vast area.
Despite there being no invincible frames during a roll, I Want to Be Immortal managed to avoid Bone Chomper’s huge fangs but was sent tumbling by its bulky body.
-18!
Luckily, the collision damage wasn’t too high, but don’t forget that I Want to Be Immortal only had a total of 150 blood volume.
Broken Teeth bravely charged forward to protect his master.
However, the difference in size meant he couldn’t restrain the opponent and could only bite the massive body a couple of times, with the aggro still on I Want to Be Immortal.
I Want to Be Immortal had just stood up when the giant rat pounced again.
I Want to Be Immortal instinctively used the right mouse button to block, then was sent flying along with his axe.
-35!
Broken Teeth was thrown by the impact.
At this moment, Xiao Jie had already run about twenty or so meters away.
Turning back, he saw I Want to Be Immortal in dire straits just as the giant rat was about to pounce for the third time, and he hurriedly released an arrow.
Whoosh!
This arrow hit the rat right in the face, resulting in a critical hit.
-19!
A red number burst forth, and the giant rat let out a scream of pain, but Xiao Jie didn’t stop, he continuously shot arrows at the giant rat.
Then the second arrow, and the third one followed, hitting the giant rat in succession.
However, the subsequent two arrows did less damage, -11, -9!
The giant rat’s tough skin and flesh meant that unless a vital spot was hit, the damage was rather average.
These three arrows directly drew the beast’s aggro.
Seeing the giant rat chasing after Xiao Jie, I Want to Be Immortal finally scrambled aside, pulling out a blood bottle and pouring it into his mouth.
However, his crisis was far from over, as several big rats surrounded him as well.
Woof woof woof!
Rou Qiu timely dashed forward, howling furiously at the rats.
A few of the rats immediately changed their target, pouncing towards Rou Qiu, who smartly turned and ran, leading a troop of big rats like a train.
But still, two of them charged towards I Want to Be Immortal.
I Want to Be Immortal, barely recovering from the fear of a near-death experience, saw two large rats coming at him from front and back and erupted in rage.
Fuck, if I can’t beat a giant rat I’ll be damned if I can’t handle you big vermin.
One Cut, Two Pieces!
He didn’t dodge or avoid facing the biting rat up front and swung his axe straight at it.
-13!
-61!
The axe fell, instantly killing it!
He himself was bitten and lost more than a dozen drops of blood.
As the second big rat pounced on him, Broken Teeth leaped in with a Flying Pounce, locking its throat and engaging in Beast Frenzy, pinning the big rat down and tearing it apart fiercely.
While I Want to Be Immortal struggled against a pack of big rats with the help of his two dogs, the battle between Xiao Jie and Bone Chomper continued.
Facing the terrifying giant rat, he dared not face it head-on.
Relying on his 18 Agility points and the speed boost from the Mountain Cat Boots, he immediately started kiting.
Retreating along the path they’d cleared of monsters before, thankfully they had slain all the straw men along the way, and the road ahead was open farmland, so he didn’t have to worry about his footing.
Surprisingly, Bone Chomper wasn’t slow, those four stubby legs supporting the hefty, heavy body still moved at a quick pace, but still fell short of his speed.
“I’ll kite the BOSS; you guys speed up clearing the little monsters!”
Xiao Jie shouted while running wildly.
Seeing some distance had opened up, creating a safe space to attack, he immediately turned around and fired another arrow.
Xiao Jie was a professional player after all, kiting bosses on flat ground was absolutely a basic operation.
He timed the narrowing of the bowstring exceptionally precisely, releasing an accurate arrow each time just as the narrowing completed.
This manner of bow-kiting naturally reduced the hit rate, but thanks to the giant rat’s large size, he didn’t worry about missing.
It was just difficult to hit its vital points, so several arrows in a row all landed on the giant rat’s corpulent body.
Xiao Jie wasn’t in a hurry, since he was faster than the opponent, he could just kite it slowly.
Run a few steps, turn back and shoot an arrow, run a few steps, turn back and shoot an arrow.
Xiao Jie became more and more familiar with the rhythm, his arrows shot more and more accurately, and the giant rat’s health was slowly but steadily decreasing.
After kiting for several hundred meters, Xiao Jie saw that the forty Rough Feathered Arrows in his bag were about to be expended.
However, the giant rat’s health was also close to bottoming out.
Another arrow was shot, and Xiao Jie felt extremely good about this one, determining the moment it was released that it hit the mark!
Indeed, this arrow directly hit the giant rat’s face, the first time he had hit a vital point while running at high speed.
[System Message: Your Enlightenment State has been triggered, granting you a moment of “Satori”!]
A flicker of joy passed through Xiao Jie’s heart, but he had no time to check what the Satori had granted him, continuing to shoot arrows at the giant rat.
Another two arrows hit the vital points in succession, but when the last arrow was shot, the giant rat still hadn’t fallen, its health had dropped to just below 81 points.
Xiao Jie abruptly stopped running.
With health less than 81 points, what was there to fear?
Although the Bone Chomper was highly damaging, its attack method was simple: a no-brainer dive straight ahead.
As long as he dodged, he stood a chance.
The tension he felt before was, to put it plainly, all because of the death game’s troubles; with the beast having so much health, a melee would be dangerous if he made even a slight mistake a couple of times.
If it were any other game, Xiao Jie would dare to solo it. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Now that the giant rat’s health was bottoming out, Xiao Jie wasn’t afraid, confident he could whittle it down with a war of attrition.
By this time, arrows peppered the giant rat, making it look like a porcupine.
Seeing Xiao Jie stop, it furiously lunged at him.
Watching the behemoth giant rat pounce towards him, Xiao Jie performed a Hawk Roll to dodge, and as he landed, he struck the misslung rat squarely in the face with his blade.
-17!
The rat turned out to be somewhat intelligent.
After rising, it didn’t lunge again but instead raised its forepaws, lifted its rat head, opened its pair of huge teeth, and bit towards Xiao Jie’s upper body.
The precision of the height was incredibly subtle; if Xiao Jie attempted another Hawk Roll, he would surely get bitten in mid-air.
And if he rolled, the giant rat needed only to follow up with a pounce to knock him over.
Xiao Jie was not sure whether the giant rat was actually engaged in such a subtle battle of wits or if it had coincidentally performed such a maneuver, but he didn’t hesitate in the slightest.
Shield Block!
Thud!
The rat’s head collided with the shield, knocking Xiao Jie back two steps, but he did not fall.
The giant rat, seeing its attack miss, had no choice but to launch another pounce.
Hawk Roll!
Xiao Jie didn’t hesitate to dodge the straightforward pounce, which seemed intimidating but was too telegraphed.
With his reaction speed, changing tactics at the last moment wasn’t an issue.
The advantage of displacement skills became clear at this moment; having them versus not was completely different.
After landing, Xiao Jie struck again with his blade, seeing the Bone Chomper lift its forepaws for another air bite.
Xiao Jie thought to himself, that’s all you’ve got.
Shield Block!
He struck with another chop, the giant rat taking the hit and its blood volume dropping to less than 50 points.
The Bone Chomper, seemingly sensing the threat of death, let out an angry shriek and, lowering its head, charged at Xiao Jie like a wild boar.
This time Xiao Jie didn’t dodge but held back his blade, charging up his power, facing the giant rat’s charge with a single slash.
One Cut, Two Pieces!
The blade struck squarely on the giant rat’s face, splitting that ugly mouth in two.
-54 (9 extra damage)!
The giant rat kicked its legs out, flipped over, and collapsed.
