Part-time BOSS

At this time, after two days of crazy leveling, Murphy has reached level 19.

He added 10 attribute points to agility, and finally learned the combat skill - Assassin's Steps, which now added a skill of evasion.

Another 10 attribute points were added to his physique. In this way, his blood volume finally exceeded the two thousand mark, and he was no longer the squishy melee who would die at the first touch.

Standing outside the entrance of the ice crack, Murphy hesitated, whether to continue moving forward or to return to the city.

Below the ice crack is a more dangerous adventure area - the Snowman Kingdom. There is a map for adventurers above level 30 to team up for adventure. There are not only snowmen and snow monsters, but also ancient snowmen and snowman kings.

, if you are lucky/bad enough, you may even encounter the legendary ancient snowman. That thing is a monster above level 70, with combat power comparable to that of a storm giant lord. It is said that there is a very small chance of dropping legendary equipment and skill books. Woolen cloth.

Just as he was hesitating, he heard a roar—roar!

A huge snowman five to six meters tall suddenly emerged from a snow cave not far away and rushed towards them with rumbling steps.

This is--

Ancient Snowman: Rare elite, level 43, HP 13300.

Murphy was surprised and happy. This thing is a small gift bag in the Snowman Mountains. It will occasionally be refreshed in small quantities in areas with a large number of snowmen. They are larger in size and have higher health. Of course, the drops are also better.

Generally, a five-person team of at least level 30 or above is required to challenge.

There is a high probability that blue quality equipment and materials will be dropped. Unfortunately, I don’t know if it’s because of bad luck or if I went to the wrong place. Murphy has been brushing snowmen for so many days without encountering them. I didn’t expect that he would finally encounter them. .

Roland automatically started to direct the battle before he gave the order. Roland was at work most of the time these two days.

Roland (vassal knight): "All crossbowmen disperse and fire freely! Lazidanan - gradually retreat and prepare to take on the monsters!"

Under his command, twenty-eight crossbowmen (two of whom had been killed in the previous battle) immediately formed a formation and started shooting. The crossbow strings made a heart-breaking stirring sound, and then with a roar, Fire the steel crossbow arrows one by one.

The dense crossbow arrows all shot towards the ancient snowman crazily.

The ancient snowman was tall and fat, making him an excellent target. He was shot into a hedgehog in the blink of an eye. The thick fur on his body was obviously not very effective in defending against heavy crossbow attacks. Each arrow could shoot three or four arrows. With ten points of damage, one-third of the health bar dropped after just a few rounds of volleys.

The snowman roared and screamed, rushing into the crossbowmen's team regardless of his own safety, and killed a crossbowman with one punch. Just as he was about to hammer all the way through, Lazidanan and two highland warriors rushed forward.

Two axes and one spear hit the snowman at the same time, and then quickly dispersed and retreated.

The ancient snowman roared and punched Lazidanan.

boom! The block was successful. After all, Lazidanan was also a level 39 Royal Guard, the peak level of a third-level soldier. In terms of defensive power alone, there was no one in this team that could surpass him.

It's a pity that the mobility is poor.

Lazidanan thrust out a spear, and the two highland warriors also attacked again. The crossbowmen continued to focus their fire. Seeing the ancient snowman's health reduced to 30%, the ancient snowman finally became angry, roared, and his eyes instantly turned blood red. .

No, the monster is furious!

"Lazidanan, retreat quickly!"

Lazidanan immediately began to retreat, but after releasing the shield defense state, he was immediately punched by the snowman and rolled out.

Every time I play, the ancient snowman steps on it with all his strength.

Frost treads the ground! boom!

Frost appeared on the ground and spread rapidly forward. Lazidanan and the two highland warriors were instantly frozen in place.

The ancient snowman roared and rushed towards the three of them.

Not good. Murphy thought to himself, this guy obviously wants to take care of him before he dies.

At this time, a hero needs to appear, and Murphy rushes forward with the dragon-slaying sword.

Storm Blade! With a swing of the giant sword, he first sent out a sword energy to slash the ancient snowman's back, attracting hatred.

Assassin's pace! Turning sideways, he easily dodged the ancient snowman's heavy blow when he turned around.

Lunge - Upward!

The sword slashed upwards. Unfortunately, the snowman was too tall and could not be cut off by cutting off his head. It was chopped directly on the stomach. The giant sword disemboweled the snowman and knocked out the last trace of the snowman's health bar. The snowman fell down with a roar. Go down.

(I'm going, it's over)

Mo Fei was speechless as he looked at the huge snowman lying on the ground. In fact, the amount of blood he actually knocked out was only about two or three thousand, less than one third. The rest were the crossbowmen of the kingdom. Continuous output of results.

Murphy curled his lips in displeasure. Although he had been practicing like crazy in the past two days, to be honest, he hardly took any action. There was no other way. The crossbowman's volley could solve everything. Neither can be done.

I originally thought that I could finally fight a small BOSS, but I didn't expect that I just lay down before I could enjoy it.

Alas, as a prince, it is so miserable that he does not even have the chance to fight happily.

He touched the corpse and took out a frost staff. Unfortunately, it was just a blue weapon, and it was an equipment for the legal profession.

Murphy was a little disappointed, but thinking about it, this kind of small BOSS drop in the wild is just like this. It's not a plot kill, so how can there be so many good things.

However, the ancient snowman's intrusion successfully aroused Murphy's interest. The ancient snowman is so weak. If he is the snowman king, he probably won't be much stronger. If he encounters an ancient snowman, he might be able to fight a dozen. .

The Ancient Snowman and the Ancient Snowman are probably just bigger in size and do more damage. With so many crossbowmen under his command, exchanging blood would kill it.

And the BOSS without a name is not a plot character, so you don’t have to worry about being killed by the plot, but you can try your luck.

He gave the order, and the large group of people walked towards the bottom of the ice crack. This wide slope went deeper and deeper, and the surrounding light gradually began to dim, leaving only the faint blue light shown by the ice walls on both sides.

He thought it would be a lonely underground adventure, but he didn't know that he had not gone far when he saw a bright world under the ice illuminated by several torches in front of him. The ice wall reflected the light of the torches, which was unusual. It was bright and dazzling, and it turned out that several adventurers were killing snowmen to level up.

The level of the snowmen in the Snowman Kingdom is relatively high, most of them are above level 30. However, like their compatriots outside, they are weak in long-range, weak in fire, and have no melee skills except for an easy-to-dodge ability to throw snowballs. Remote capabilities.

As long as there are enough archers and professions with fire-based skills in the team, the killing will be extremely fast. In the team in front of you, there is a Cursed Fire Master, a Sun God Priest, one shoots out huge fireballs, and the other shoots out streaks of fire. The snowmen were burned into torches one by one by the fire of the sun, and were shot at indiscriminately by the rangers and hunters in the team, and they all fell to death.

Judging from their skilled fighting methods, it's obvious that they have been here for a long time.

Murphy watched for a while and was about to go up to say hello. The adventurers also noticed them. Unexpectedly, the moment they saw Murphy, they immediately showed a horrified expression.

"Wocao, that's not good. He's a hero."

"Damn it, the team at the door didn't send an alarm. Hurry up and inform everyone that a hero is coming!"

Two people in the team immediately broke away from the team and ran towards the depths of the cave, shouting as they ran - "Heroes are coming, heroes are coming, everyone, pay attention, heroes are coming."

Murphy looked confused, what was going on in his heart? I am a hero, not a devil entering the village.

Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "You brave adventurers, why are you so nervous?"

The remaining adventurers all looked at each other, and the leader suddenly laughed and said: "There is no need to be nervous, we just feel that a prince is here, and everyone should come to pay their respects. Haha, the weather is nice today."

Yes, your sister, Murphy sneered in his heart, there is definitely something wrong here.

He waved his hand and was about to take the people away. The map in the frost crevice extended in all directions, so there was no need to take this road.

But the leading mage hurriedly stopped him and said, "Oh, your highness, don't leave in a hurry. There are monsters everywhere here, and there are also holes in the ice. If you accidentally fall in, you will be dead. I will help you with the details." Please refer to the detailed leveling route."

"Step aside!"

He said coldly, those adventurers really didn't dare to stop them, so they could only step aside.

Murphy continued to walk in, but he didn't know that he had not gone far when he saw a large group of adventurers blocking the way.

People No. 34 were obviously divided into several teams, and they didn't seem to be very familiar with each other. However, when facing the heroes, they were surprisingly unanimous and blocked the road in front of them.

Obviously he didn't intend to let them pass.

Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "What do you mean?"

A ranger came out and said, "This friend, can you give me some face and go to fight monsters elsewhere?"

"Why?"

A bald warrior said loudly, "Why else? You are a hero. If you kill the Snowman King, the adventure level of the entire area will be reduced, the refresh frequency of monsters will be reduced, and the number of BOSS will also be reduced. Then let’s work hard, we finally found these good places for leveling and treasure hunting, but we can’t let you ruin it.”

The adventurers all agreed, "That's right, is it easy for us to upgrade? All the good places outside are occupied by those big guilds. We finally found a good place, and you heroes came to join in the fun."

Mo Fei was speechless. Well, what these people said is really right. It’s okay to kill the ancient snowman or even the ancient snowman by yourself. These are all monsters without names, but the Snowman King most likely has a name (usually there is one). Only names count as plot characters, if you don’t have a name, it doesn’t matter.) If you are killed, plot events are likely to be triggered.

On a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, Prince Aidan heroically killed the Snowman King, causing the number of snowmen in the area to drop sharply. The adventure level of this map will most likely be lowered as a result, but generally speaking, it will recover after a while. .

Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Don't worry, even if the Snowman King is killed, there will be another BOSS sooner or later."

This is also a feature of this game. The monsters and BOSS in the same area are not static. The biggest variable is the hero, or the plot character.

If the plot character kills the BOSS in a certain area or destroys the monster nest, new monster forces will develop after a while.

For example, the bandit stronghold that Murphy destroyed before. Without the bandits, there will naturally be ghost skeletons to fill the vacancies of monsters. Over time, an undead elite will evolve from them to serve as the leader. If someone cleans out all these undead, There may be a beast colony, a cultist camp, a goblin tribe, etc. to settle there. In short, an area will not be left blank for a long time.

It's a bit like natural ecology.

If the Snowman King is killed by him, either a new Snowman King will be born, or an ice elemental lord from the elemental plane, or a frost giant lizard, white dragon, storm giant, etc. wandering over from other places. It will make a huge snowman kingdom fall.

However, the adventurers didn't buy it.

"But the Snowman King drops well and is easy to farm. We had to kill several groups before we figured out how to defeat the Snowman King. If you kill the Snowman King, don't expect a new boss within a few weeks. Even if I’ve spawned a new BOSS, but I don’t know how it will drop and whether it’s easy to defeat, so I’m sorry, brother, give me some face and go elsewhere to spawn monsters.”

This request can't be said to be completely unreasonable, but Mo Fei is still a little unhappy. Why are they just playing games?

Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "What if I say no?"

There are twenty-seven Kingdom crossbowmen behind Mo Fei. Coupled with him as a hero and a few melee soldiers, even a group of adventurers can fight. Although there are many adventurers in front of them, they are obviously not mutually exclusive. The subordinates are all small groups of three to five, and the levels are also uneven. There are many trumpets of more than ten levels, many in the twenties, and many in the thirties. There are only three large players above the forty level. Just five.

This is also a major feature of the game Cangqiong World. Since there is no concept of level suppression, players of different levels can completely fight monsters and upgrade together, and the interactivity is very high.

It’s normal for a big one to take a small one with him on adventures.

If they really fight, Mo Fei is not too weak.

At this tense moment, a new team of adventurers arrived. This team obviously ran out from deeper underground. They were all above level 30, and the leading female mage was level 41. class.

Seeing Murphy, he was a little surprised and said hello.

Xinbu (Mage): "Your Highness, do you still remember me?" But it was the female mage who worked together to clean up the bandit stronghold.

Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Hey, Xinbu, why are you here?"

Xinbu (Mage): "I'm here to brush up the Ice Storm skill book."

Murphy looked at the configuration of the team. There was a mage at level 40, a ranger at level 39, a conjurer at level 373, a warrior at level 29, and hey, there was even a level 40 man. It's a coincidence, isn't it, that an elementalist is needed to defeat the black dragon.

Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Well, it seems that for the sake of my friend, I will withdraw. However, you have to do me a favor. I will fight a BOSS tomorrow. Can you experts cooperate with me? , Don’t worry, your work will not be in vain, fifty gold coins each.”

Xinbu (Master): "No problem."

Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Then I'll see you tomorrow."
