Chapter 289: Fierce Battle on the Floating Bridge
The Boss's frenzy quickly disappeared, but it was already close to the shore.
What surprised Xu Youming was that after reaching this position, the boss stopped moving forward.
Instead, it quietly slid into the water. The shallows could not hide the Boss's powerful figure, and half of its body was exposed.
After entering the water, the Boss's speed increased significantly, and when its tail whipped, the waves it created became more turbulent.
The boss's tail itself would not cause any harm if it did not touch Xu Youming, but the lake water here was not ordinary lake water.
Caught off guard, Xu Youming was drenched by the lake water.
Sizzle
A harsh sound was heard, and he found that the durability of his equipment was visibly decreasing.
The black lake water not only causes terrible harm to players, but also damages equipment. It is simply a nightmare for players.
Half of the profits players get from killing wild monsters are used to repair equipment, and the other half is spent on supplies.
If you encounter a monster that can corrode your equipment, you won't even think of taking action.
The lake water poured on Xu Youming's body, causing a total of 3,000+ damages, but it was not a big threat to him now.
Just looking at the Boss rolling in the distance made him feel a little tricky.
This position should be the Boss's limit. When Xu Youming tried to continue retreating, the Boss also retreated contrary to his usual behavior.
Once he is out of the Boss's attack range, the Boss will swim to the surface of the lake.
His idea of using the range to cripple the Boss was immediately shattered.
Now, we can only find a way to lure the crocodile back onto the floating bridge to avoid corrosion of the equipment.
In desperation, Xu Youming could only walk towards the Boss.
Sure enough, when approaching within 100 meters of the Boss, a fierce light flashed in the opponent's eyes, and the swinging of its tail stopped.
It opened its bloody mouth, suddenly jumped out of the water and pounced towards Xu Youming.
Xu Youming's tiny figure seemed extremely fragile in front of the huge Boss.
Seeing the Boss launching an attack, Xu Youming naturally did not dare to confront him head-on, and immediately activated [Shadow Chasing], trying to pass under the Boss.
However, Xu Youming obviously underestimated the Boss's speed. With a loud bang, the Boss's body fell behind Xu Youming.
The boss's sharp claws also grabbed Xu Youming, and a damage of 10,000+ floated up from above his head.
Xu Youming didn't dare to fight back at this time, but just ran away with all his strength.
The boss still had the slowing effect and was unable to catch up with Xu Youming in the first place.
After being attacked twice, Xu Youming finally escaped from the Boss's attack range.
At this time, his health was only about 50%.
The end in front is still several hundred meters away, which is enough for Xu Youming to continue kite flying for a while and also to restore the lost blood.
What worried him the most was the durability of his equipment. After just these few attacks, it had dropped by 5%.
The equipment had just been repaired before Xu Youming came. The value of these equipments was beyond imagination, and the price of repair was also very high.
He was able to offset the previous equipment losses with his gains.
He has never made a losing deal since he entered the game, but today might be an exception.
If he wants to kill this Boss, he will have to run a few more times, and it will probably consume 20% of his energy here guarding the Demon Crocodile.
After leaving the Boss's attack range, the battlefield was once again dominated by Xu Youming.
Under the continuous attack of arrows, the Boss's health began to drop rhythmically.
Not long after, Xu Youming retreated to the end of the floating bridge, and the Boss's health was less than half left.
Xu Youming took on two more attacks, came behind the Boss, and began to pull him back.
As long as the Boss's health is reduced to below 25%, he will be able to implement the final plan.
As soon as Xu Youming returned behind the Boss, the Boss went into a rampage again.
This time it is no longer about improving defense, but about growing numerous tentacles on the crocodile's back.
The pitch-black tentacles swayed in the air like water columns, and their tips were as sharp as spears.
Xu Youming Xu Youming now not only has to face the Boss's sharp claws, but also has to be attacked by these tentacles.
In the dark night, the tentacles were like ghosts demanding death, constantly shuttling back and forth between Xu Youming's sides, and he would be hit hard if he was not careful.
Every time he was hit, he would lose about 5,000 damage. For a moment, Xu Youming's blood volume began to drop rapidly. Various defensive skills were activated one after another, and the critical situation was alleviated a little.
At the same time, intermediate resurrection pills were used continuously, bringing the blood volume above the safety line.
The attack distance of these tentacles was as high as 100 meters. After Xu Youming escaped from the attack range, he looked extremely embarrassed.
Xu Youming stood 150 meters away, looking at the tentacles swaying constantly, still feeling a little frightened.
He didn't expect that the boss's attack range could suddenly increase so much. If his reaction was a little slower, his life would be lost here.
Xu Youming casually threw an intermediate resurrection pill into his mouth and began his hunting.
After losing their target, these tentacles began to switch to defensive mode. When Xu Youming's arrow flew over, several tentacles went straight up to try to block the arrow.
However, the Boss knew nothing about Xu Youming's archery skills. Every time he seemed to be able to block it, the Wind Spirit Arrow would always pierce into the Boss's body at a tricky angle.
Are you kidding? I was no match for it at close range. Now that we have distanced ourselves from it, I can’t expect it to suppress me.
The mobile turret immediately turns on output mode.
To be on the safe side, this time Xu Youming directly consumed the Boss's health to below 20% before starting to change positions.
From here to the end, it is enough for him to kill 30% of the Boss's health. Now there is only 20% left, so he is determined to win.
Everything is ready, except for the final operation.
If you want to turn the Boss into your stepping stone, you must let it die at the end of the floating bridge.
Xu Youming already had a plan in mind. After changing his position, he began to drain the Boss's health.
Fortunately, there was no rampage of the Boss this time. After retreating nearly 200 meters, the Boss's health was less than 10,000, and Xu Youming also stopped attacking.
Pull the Boss all the way to the end.
Standing at the end of the floating bridge, Xu Youming turned around and looked. The Boss had lost its deceleration effect, so its speed suddenly increased a lot, and it was already coming behind him with a fierce look in its eyes.
