Chapter 634: Chapter 601: Could This Be The Ultimate BOSS?
At the moment when Camille Victoria couldn’t help but scream for her mom.
In the midst of eerie battle music, terrifying BOSS sound effects, and Camille Victoria’s panicked screams, a barely audible sound slipped into her ears.
The next moment, the world suddenly went quiet.
The dim cave, the decaying soil, the ghastly, terrifying BOSS… all vanished without a trace.
A little girl with pink hair appeared before her, smiling and waving her hand: “It’s all good now, all that was fake, you’re safe now, you’re safe.”
Camille Victoria stared blankly for a moment and hastily wiped her eyes with the back of her hand.
Mavis considerately handed her a pink handkerchief embroidered with a twisty little fire dragon.
Camille Victoria took it subconsciously, but after wiping her eyes twice, she suddenly covered her face with both hands and crouched down weakly.
—She felt utterly humiliated! She couldn’t face anyone anymore.
She was also a fan of Mavis and had always liked her, but—
She never wanted to meet Mavis under these circumstances!!!
Not to mention the situation in the live broadcast room now, she didn’t even have to think to know that those people must be laughing like crazy.
Her mind in shambles, Camille Victoria blurted out: “That’s it for today’s live broadcast, see you all tomor-…”
At this point, she paused for a moment and then changed her words: “See you all… if fate allows!”
After saying this, she quickly ended the live broadcast before giving her viewers a chance to laugh, and after a brief farewell to her teammates, she went offline.
Of course, she just closed the live broadcast room and didn’t quit the game.
She still wanted to chat with Mavis.
As for the viewers in the live broadcast room, they were not disappointed at all.
Just watching the scene just now was enough to satisfy them.
Some people started to edit and upload videos immediately, some continued to chat happily in the live broadcast room, and of course, some went to watch other live broadcasts, as there were plenty of streamers still broadcasting, and excitement was never lacking.
For example, Warehouse Bird was still live streaming expert mode while challenging the BOSS.
However, the relatively simple King Slime had already been defeated by other teams, and according to the world announcement, it was a small three-person team.
So Warehouse Bird decided to give up on King Slime and challenge the Eater of Worlds instead.
But it didn’t go very smoothly.
Despite learning from others’ experiences, setting up long wooden paths in the ever-changing underground caverns for easy movement, and building up some resistance to the terrifying appearance of the BOSS, the battle was still extremely difficult.
The BOSS would randomly phase through walls, attack from all angles, and even spew slime at multiple angles simultaneously, which was just too frustrating!
But if they fought the BOSS on the surface, its speed would skyrocket compared to underground, making it almost impossible to defend against.
The most frustrating thing was that once the BOSS’s body was broken, it would instantly split into two or three, turning into multiple targets, making it almost impossible to handle for a single player.
Not to mention, he had lost such a useful weapon as the fire gun.
—This was a problem expert mode characters had to face: many map resources were limited, and once you died too many times, you could respawn, but the resources would not be replenished, making the battle even more challenging as you went on.
It might not be obvious right now, but in the later stages, it was highly likely that they would have to open more maps to meet the resource demands of challenging higher difficulty BOSS battles.
Warehouse Bird was not stubborn, after trying twice in vain, he immediately changed his strategy.
“Let’s explore the surroundings first, increase the strength of our equipment, hopefully get another gun, and then challenge the BOSS again. As of now, I can’t figure out how to defeat it.”
—He had a standard traditional combat mindset: get better equipment, fight stronger bosses, get even better equipment, and fight even stronger bosses, and so on in a cycle.
If they couldn’t defeat it, then it was just a matter of equipment.
After that, Warehouse Bird randomly chose a direction to explore.
First, there was the forest, followed by the corruption area, and then the ice plain. He didn’t waste time digging down but quickly searched for caves and deep pits and other special terrains, hoping to find treasure chests with powerful equipment.
However, most of the items he found along the way were supplies, and the only weapons he found were a magic wand that could summon Magic Thorns.
But he wasn’t used to wands, and the damage wasn’t very high either…
The only thing worth being happy about was finding a special accessory – the Snowstorm Bottle – in an ice chest.
It was just an ordinary glass bottle in appearance, but endless snow was falling inside the bottle.
Just like its name, it’s like putting a snowstorm in a bottle.
And its equipment effect is: allows players to “Double Jump.”
This unexpected gain piqued Warehouse Bird’s interest, after all, the increase in mobility is a huge boost to both exploration and combat.
Not to mention, with this thing, as long as he’s careful, he’ll almost never be killed by falling again, the practicality is unquestionable.
He even began to fantasize: Could there be any other types of bottles that could be stacked together for “Triple Jump” or “Quadruple Jump”?
After all, there are 5 accessory slots in a character’s equipment tab!
With great anticipation, he climbed over a small hill and saw a special “castle” built of blue-black bricks.
“This should be another special exploration point similar to the World Tree, right?” Warehouse Bird guessed, “This is some fortune!”
“I have a feeling that there will be more treasure chests here than in the World Tree! I’m about to get rich!”
“Bring out the guns! Bring out the swords! And a mount!”
He said while hurrying towards the castle, his face filled with the joy of a bountiful harvest.
However, as soon as he quickly entered the castle, the first thing he saw was an old man staggering.
Warehouse Bird walked up to initiate a conversation, and the old man kept to the simplicity of the game’s NPCs, saying directly, “If you don’t lift my curse, I won’t let you in.”
“What curse?” Warehouse Bird asked.
“You’re too weak to break my curse, and you won’t be able to fight my master,” he said.
“So, if I defeat your master, the curse will be lifted, right?”
“Yes, defeat my master, and I’ll let you enter the dungeon. But it is daytime now, and my master cannot be summoned during the day.”
“Oh…” Warehouse Bird was originally thinking about how simple and straightforward the game’s tasks were, but when he heard this, he blinked and asked one more question: “You mean your master is not here during the day?”
The old man nodded honestly: “If you want to challenge my master, come back at night.”
However, Warehouse Bird had no intention of waiting until the evening. Instead, he said, “Well then…sorry about this!”
After saying that, he immediately walked around the old man, rushed into the house behind him, planning to search and clean up the place while the master was away.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw a prominent underground entrance.
“This must be it, right?”
Looking at the steep slope below, Warehouse Bird jumped in without hesitation, then launched a double jump at a close distance to the ground, negating the fall damage and landing steadily.
“Double Jump is so useful! Could it be that after defeating the boss summoned by the old man, I’ll get other Double Jump items?”
While Warehouse Bird was jumping and thinking, he saw a treasure chest in the distance below.
“There’s really something!”
Warehouse Bird excitedly jumped up to open the treasure chest.
But just as his body leaped into the air, a gigantic skeleton head suddenly appeared and quickly spun towards him!
“Holy sh*t!” Warehouse Bird was startled by the sudden attack.
But even though it was so sudden, he swiftly activated the Double Jump, forcing his body to rise further, narrowly dodging the attack.
Not only that, in the span of a lightning strike, he also drew out his iron bow and shot an arrow at it!
This attack also allowed him to see the monster’s information –
[Dungeon Guardian] (9999/9999)
And the damage he inflicted with his arrow was – “1”.
At the next moment, the skeleton head reversed and flew back, hitting him in the air, unable to move any more, and killing him on the spot.
His soul out of his body, Warehouse Bird was dumbfounded after seeing that he only had 120 health points, while taking “1000” points of damage –
“Come on, bro, you’re just a guard, with 9999 health, maxed defense, hitting me once for 1000, and insta-killing me…”
“How strong must your master be?!”
“Could this be the final BOSS?”
