"Burp …"
The ogre leader burped and rubbed his stomach. Suddenly, he picked up a long javelin from the wall. That javelin was probably a weapon seized from the human soldiers. Then, in front of me, the ogre leader picked at the meat between his teeth with the javelin and raised his eyebrows slightly, as though he was trying to show off to me.
"Damn you …" I cursed under my breath.
There were two monsters here. One was the boss, the ogre leader, and the other was the ogre mage. In order to avoid any mishaps, I carefully used Eyes of the Stars on the ogre mage. It was better to be safe than sorry. Small characters like these were usually the ones that could turn the tables on me!
[Twin-headed Ogre Mage] (Gold Rank Miniboss)
Level: 105
Magic Attack: 540-820
Defense: 400
Health: 300000
Skills: [Wild Bloodlust], [Elemental Healing], [Barbaric Barrier]
Bonus: Twin-headed Ogres have the ability to interact with natural elements, and after dedicated training, they can grasp the power of the elements. Their wild nature allows them to easily use wild elements, making them the best of the barbarian tribes in terms of spell usage …
I couldn't help but be shocked. A priest-type monster had actually appeared. Not only was it skilled in magic attacks, but it could also heal. It seemed that this quest wouldn't be as easy as I had imagined. I had to kill this ogre mage first.
The other big boss, the ogre leader's stats, shocked me even more.
[Twin-headed Ogre Leader] (Dark Gold Rank Boss)
Level: 105
Attack: 1250-1650
Defense: 750
Health: 250000
Skills: [Wild Charge], [War Trample], [Thunderous Strike], [Berserk Rage]
Bonus: The leader of the Cannibal Tribe. He once swept away the elite Heavenly Wolf Cavalry with his battle axe. The bloodthirsty and ferocious two-headed ogre leader led his tribe to invade the Radiant Territory. That bloody war made the humans remember this terrifying beast, and countless human warriors trembled in fear at the mention of it …
"Phew … another Dark Gold Rank boss over Level 100 …" I sighed, thinking about how to deal with these two bosses standing side by side.
In the team channel, Qin Yun's voice could be heard. "Scholar, how is it going?
Is there a boss inside? "
"Yes, two …"
"Ah?
Two?! "Ling Xue seemed very excited.
"Yeah, two … One is a warrior type, and the other is a mage and priest type."
Ling Xue smiled and said, "Then you can lure them out …"
I thought for a moment, then sent the stats of the two bosses to the party channel. Then, I said, "If I lure it, the ogre mage will attack me from afar, and the ogre leader will use Charge. That Wild Charge might stun me, so when I lure the ogre leader, Ling Xue will use the Wind Spirit Beast to sleep it for half a minute. Then, we'll focus our firepower on the 300000 HP ogre mage!"
"Mn, alright!" Ling Xue expressed her deep approval of my strategy.
And so, I set my sights on the two bosses. One was a Dark Gold Rank boss, and the other was a Gold Rank miniboss. Everyone would choose the latter as their first target!
Whoosh …
My body flashed red. Without warning, I used Intermediate Bloodthirst. Then, I took out my Star Chasing Bow and fired an Ice Arrow at the ogre mage. Then, I turned and ran out of the stone wall without hesitation. Behind me, I heard a gust of wind. I looked around and saw that the ogre leader had caught up to me.
The ogre leader took out a thick battle axe from somewhere and activated Wild Charge. The skill's range was far beyond my imagination. Even though I had retreated at the first moment, I was still locked onto by the skill!
When I was about ten yards away from the stone wall, my body suddenly trembled. The ogre chieftain's Wild Charge had stunned me. Immediately after, I saw the blood-red axe swing down. At the same time, lightning flashed, and countless balls of lightning gathered on the axe's blade!
Kacha!
The ogre leader's axe slashed across my shoulder armor. I felt a sharp pain, and my HP instantly dropped by 2135!
Qin Yun used a timely Heal to pull my HP back up. At this time, the ogre leader let out a roar, and its body shone with bloody light!
Ding ~!
Combat Log: Twin-headed Ogre Leader used "Berserk Rage". For 30 seconds, critical rate increased by 100%, Attack increased by 25%, HP increased by 50%, and Defense decreased by 50%!
… …
Shocked, I hurriedly retreated. But the ogre leader was too fast. It swung its axe like a gust of wind sweeping away fallen leaves and sent me flying!
Thump!
I spun 720 degrees in the air and rolled in front of Ling Xue. I had lost more than half of my HP in an instant. The ogre leader had a 100% critical rate right now. No human could withstand such a powerful attack!
Fortunately, the Wind Spirit Beast Sisi had flown in front of the ogre leader. It chirped twice and flapped its wings. With a flash of purple light, the ogre leader fell asleep!
The Wind Spirit Beast's Sleep Spell also lasted for 30 seconds, just enough to cancel out the effects of Berserk Rage.
Pleasantly surprised, I hurriedly said, "Ling Xue, the Wind Spirit Beast's Sleep Spell can't be used carelessly. You can only use it when the boss is in Berserk Rage!"
"I know ~ ~" Ling Xue looked down at me in amusement. She stretched out her hand and said, "Get up?
Our scholar looks so handsome when he's rolling on the ground ~ ~ "
I glanced at the snow-white legs peeking out of Ling Xue's war boots and couldn't help but feel aroused. I played a hoodlum and supported Ling Xue's legs to stand up. The softness and smoothness of her legs were quite enjoyable!
Ling Xue stared at me with her beautiful eyes and teased, "You're asking for a beating again … What are you waiting for? Kill that ogre mage already!"
I immediately turned around. Ling Xue followed me. At this time, the ogre mage was charging up a large-scale spell and glowed with gentle green light. In the next moment, a ball of green light landed on Ling Xue's shoulder.
“1124！”
Ling Xue had the Earth-grade armor of the Snow Unicorn, so her Magic Resist was ridiculously high. Therefore, the damage she received wasn't very high. Qin Yun focused on healing me and carefully circled around the sleeping ogre leader in case the boss woke up and used War Trample to one-shot her.
I slid to the right side of the Ogre Mage, giving Ling Xue the space in front of me. My Ice King's Sword flashed, and a Total Annihilation + Shield Break Slash combo came flying out. The sharp sword immediately exploded with starlight on the boss's body!
“4569！”
“4732！”
“4854！”
“9861！”
Four shocking numbers jumped out of the boss's head. The ogre mage's Defense was only 400, so it was negligible in front of my 1902 Attack. The damage I dealt was also ridiculous. In an instant, I dealt more than 20000 damage. Moreover, Total Annihilation even canceled out the boss's next magic attack!
Ling Xue smiled and quickly moved forward. She swung her Lightning Sword and also used Total Annihilation + Water Moon Slash!
“2783！”
“2801！”
“2714！”
“3679！”
In comparison, Ling Xue's Attack was much weaker. However, that was only relative to my Attack. Compared to the current first-rate swordsmen, Ling Xue's Attack was at the peak!
After all, a swordsman's Strength Growth was 10 stars, and a Dragon Speaker's Strength Growth was 12 stars. There was an extra 20% Strength Growth, and the higher the level, the more obvious the difference!
After a round of attacks, the ogre mage had lost more than 35000 HP, and his total HP was only 300000. Therefore, before the ogre leader woke up, the ogre mage had to endure five rounds of powerful skills from me and Ling Xue. His HP bar was almost halved under our unparalleled attacks!
Seeing that the ogre leader's stun effect was about to disappear, the Wind Spirit Beast cried out anxiously. However, there was nothing it could do. Sleep had a cooldown of 5 minutes, so we had to wait for 5 minutes before we could sleep the ogre leader again!
Ling Xue hit the ogre mage until he cried out in pain. She turned around and asked me, "What do we do?
Who's going to kill the ogre leader? "
I said without hesitation, "I'll kill the ogre mage. It'll be faster that way. You go and stall the ogre leader for now. His Attack is too high, and your Defense will definitely be broken through. You have to be careful!"
"Mn, got it ~"
Ling Xue raised her sword and ran toward the ogre leader. I shouted in the party channel, "Qin Yun, pay attention to Ling Xue's HP. Don't let her die!"
Qin Yun nodded with a smile. At the same time, she cast a curse on the ogre leader's head. However, Qin Yun's level was too low, so she could only reduce the boss's movement speed by less than 3%. That was the best she could do.
This time, we didn't use the terrain to our advantage. We directly used our own strength to kill the boss. This was more than enough to prove that our strength had improved by leaps and bounds after we obtained a bunch of equipment recently!
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!" With three slashes, the green magic on the tip of the ogre mage's staff was destroyed. At the same time, the ogre mage's aggro was drawn to me. The ogre mage let out an ear-piercing roar and swung his staff at my shoulder!
"Pa!"
The Withered Wood Staff hit the Gold-grade armor and was immediately bounced back, losing no more than 100 HP. This Gold-grade boss' physical attack power really wasn't that great!
On the other side, Ling Xue was fighting the ogre leader head-on. Ling Xue dealt almost 2000 damage to the boss, and the boss dealt around 1500 damage to Ling Xue. Ling Xue had around 5000 HP, so three hits would be enough. Therefore, Qin Yun could only quickly heal Ling Xue while taking care of me.
I swung my Ice Sword, and a golden sword light flashed. Shield Break Slash dealt over ten thousand damage to the ogre mage. After the pain, the ogre mage didn't counterattack. Instead, he raised his staff high and chanted a cryptic incantation. At the same time, a blood-red shield appeared around the ogre leader. These two bosses were cooperating from afar!
Ding ~!
Combat Log: Twin-headed Ogre Mage used "Barbarian Rampart" on the Twin-headed Ogre Leader, causing it to enter an invincible state for 10 seconds.
… …
Ling Xue was dumbfounded. She turned around and smiled helplessly at me. "That's nothing, they're cheating …"
I continued to attack. We had to kill this ogre mage as soon as possible. If we allowed him to do anything else, we might actually fail miserably!
Thud thud!
After two consecutive attacks, the Ogre Magician's body swayed a little. Then, it suddenly raised its staff, and a green light flowed around it. The next moment, a beam of light fell on the Ogre Magician's head, instantly restoring more than 5,400 HP!
Qin Yun's mouth fell open. She exclaimed in surprise, "Damn, his healing is much higher than mine …"
I laughed. Although the ogre mage's healing was high, it was definitely not higher than my attack!
A cold glint flashed past. It was another fatal blow. A damage value of over 10,000 appeared above the Ogre Magician's head. This time, it couldn't hold on any longer. It let out a deep roar and collapsed to the ground, its huge body the size of a hill!
Crash! Several pieces of equipment and a pile of gold fell to the ground.
Ling Xue raised her arm and blocked the ogre leader's attack with a Shield of Heavenly Fire. Then, she immediately said with a smile, "Pick up the items and come help me!"
I nodded and immediately swept the equipment and gold into my bag. A quick glance revealed that they were all Silver-grade equipment. There was nothing to be surprised about.
When I joined the fight against the ogre chieftain, the pressure on Ling Xue lessened significantly. She threw a Profound Ice Sword Aura at the ogre chieftain's face, stunning it for a short period of time. Not long after, the ogre chieftain's HP dropped to less than half under the continuous attacks.
As a Level 105 Dark Gold Rank boss, the ogre chieftain couldn't stand the humiliation. It roared and stomped its giant hooves on the ground, causing lightning to erupt. The next moment, the ogre chieftain used War Stampede, and an irresistible force dragged Ling Xue and me toward the boss's feet!
I immediately panicked. If we were to fall under the boss's feet, wouldn't we be trampled to death?
"Ling Xue, hurry up and let the Wind Spirit Beast sleep it!"
"Oh."
Fortunately, Ling Xue reacted quickly. Just as the Ogre Leader was about to land an Earthshaking Blow, the Wind Spirit Beast cast a Hypnotic Spell. The Ogre Leader was instantly hypnotized in mid-air and slowly fell to the ground.
Qin Yun took the opportunity to heal us back to full HP, but the next step was difficult. When the ogre leader woke up again, it cleverly used Berserk Rage, a 100% critical hit. In just two or three hits, Ling Xue and I's HP was almost empty!
Thump!
I hurriedly threw a Shadow Trap at my original spot. Then, I ran around a small stone house with my sword in hand. The ogre leader was furious and smashed the small stone house into pieces with a swing of his axe!
The Boss was just too fast. Before I could stand still, I saw a red light flash in front of me. "Kacha", I felt pain in my shoulder and blood splattered. The last bit of my health was gone. My body became light and I turned into specks of light.
