Capítulo 16: Chapter 15 - Wild Boss [Goblin Merchant Lorraine]
The next day, the twin went into the computer room after breakfast and saw several retired professional players huddled together to watch a replay of a match through one monitor.
"His tactic is still shallow, his operation is rough. After being pressured, his effective speed decreased, probably due to panic," the twin heard Yu Wenzhou speaks up.
"Here, right here," Han Wenqing leaned forward and paused the video. The video paused to when Lord Grim was releasing a Dragon Tooth. "If he had saved this skill at this time and used Falling Flower Palm instead, then…" he then played the video back only to pause it after ten seconds. "Here, he could use Dragon Tooth to win against Lunge."
The video continues but not long after it was paused again. "Here, Knee Strike is good."
This was Zhou Zekai. He had come into the room earlier to do some 'hand exercise' when he saw several former captains analyzing a video so he ends up joining in.
"Agreed. This Knee Strike is good but his follow up wasn't as good," Ye Xiu added as he played the video again to show Lord Grim using Collapsing Mountain. "If he used Backward Slash, then he could've connected more attack combos."
By now, the twin knew whose video they were reviewing. The twin looked at each other, with Li Haoxuan revealing a helpless smile. He carefully pushed the wheelchair towards the group of men before he cleared his throat.
"We're here. I thought we were going to review them together, God Ye… why did you start without us?" he asked.
"We were bored, and we saw Old Ye here looking through a replay so we decided to join in," Yu Wenzhou answered as he gave the two children a warm smile.
"You two finally here? Come closer," Ye Xiu ushered Han Wenqing who was sitting beside him to move slightly. After making enough space, the gestured for the twin to come and sit down before the monitor.
After that, the reviewing finally begins and Li Haoxuan can't help but feel as if he's being shot at as more of his mistakes were pointed out.
Li Zhihuan fared better since he played as a cleric. There was nothing much to say, and the former captains agreed that his opportunity seizing and operation is good. He just needs more tactics and more experience in a match.
At 8:45, they stopped their reviewing session and went to the testing room once again. The rest were already there, getting themselves prepped up.
"Today, we've opened all of the maps. The experience point you receive has been increased by five-folds, so hopefully, you guys can hurry to reach the maximum level and test the rest of the map," the head of the project said. "The PK arena will be closed off for now because we found several bugs when we upgraded the system earlier. We hope to get it up and running as soon as we can. You can try to PK in the wild but I suggest when you do, use dummy equipments. If you die and your weapon drops and disappeared due to bugs, we will not be held responsible."
"What about the item drop?" Ye Xiu asked. Although it is good that they can level quickly, but if the drop rate is still the same then it would still be a loss for him. After all, it meant that the number of runs he can do in a dungeon will be less.
"Item drops are also increased by five folds."
After being assured, Ye Xiu then let himself being prepped up with the equipments and easily entered the game.
"Hey, what about the login screen? Did you guys change it? If I'm stuck in the login screen again for half of the day, I'm going to be very mad! Do you know how boring it can be to stare at the login screen for a good hour? Have you tried it? No? If not maybe you should try it! Then you'll understand what I mean," Huang Shaotian complained before going into the game.
Meanwhile, Li Haoxuan was still helping his brother into his seat and made sure he's comfortable. Before he left to go to his own seat, Li Zhihuan pulled on his arm.
"Later, I'll wait for you at the entrance of the Frost Forest Dungeon," Li Zhihuan said before he let go of Li Haoxuan's arm.
"Got it. I'll be there in a jiffy!" Li Haoxuan said with a grin on his face.
When Li Haoxuan got into the game, he saw that Ye Xiu and the rest were waiting for him. Thinking that they wanted to go run the Skeleton Graveyard dungeon again, Li Haoxuan started to be worried. "God Ye… I—"
"You'll go to Frost Forest today and starts leveling with your brother. If you see Goblin Merchant Lorraine in the wild, kill him and see if he drops an [Unidentified Stone]. After that, grind the dungeon as usual. If you encounter hidden bosses, immediately alert me," Ye Xiu gave out his instruction to Li Haoxuan in one breath.
"Okay!" Li Haoxuan felt relieved and he turned to leave.
"Xiao Xuan," Ye Xiu called him again and Li Haoxuan glanced back at the older male. "Don't get used to Myriad Manifestation Umbrella. I am merely lending them to you to get you used to the operation of an Unspecialized. Your weapon will be different in the future," Ye Xiu told him.
"God Ye, are you trying to develop a new one?"
"En. Last night, the head of the Glory developer came over to see me. Today, they opened all maps for us to explore, this includes the have yet to be released level 90-95 map which they planned to release at the same time as the new system," Ye Xiu informed the younger boy. "There will be a lot of new materials and one of them interest me very much."
"Hopefully, we'll reach the max level today."
After saying that, Ye Xiu left with his team to enter the Skeleton Graveyard dungeon while Li Haoxuan is now free to go meet his brother.
When he reached the edge of Frost Forest, he could see the wild boss loitering around the area. He then sends a quick voice message to Li Zhihuan: "Zhihuan, come over to my place. Coordinates: 546,877. The wild boss, Goblin Merchant Lorraine is here and God Ye left instruction to kill it for an item called [Unidentified Stone]."
Not long after, Li Zhihuan came. At first, he was just walking towards Li Haoxuan but when he saw the weapon on Li Haoxuan's hand, he can't help rushing over. "The Myriad Manifestation Umbrella! Did God Ye lend it to you? Is this why you said that today will be easier?" Li Zhihuan asked in an excited manner.
"En," Li Haoxuan looked at Li Zhihuan up and down before he opened the panel to check his equipment. "Did you went off to buy new equipment yesterday?" Li Haoxuan asked.
"Yes, ah! Though it can't be compared with orange equipment, it's still better than the blue equipments that I had before," Li Zhihuan replied.
"Alright. I'll go and kite the boss. Since we are only doing a duo, you'll have a huge burden as the healer," Li Haoxuan said before he went to meet with the wild boss.
A wild boss is designed to be taken by a group of people. They have insanely high health and when they reached residual blood, their attack power increased.
Li Haoxuan was very careful as he begins his attack. After being beaten up badly yesterday, and after the review earlier this morning, he now has a better grasp of the unspecialized class.
Now, he knew how to pace his attack for them to be more efficient. Which skills to use for a follow-up and even thought up to 10 steps beyond what he is currently doing.
Fifteen minutes later, the boss finally reached residual blood and entered the Red Blood state. Goblin Merchant Lorraine's eyes turned red and the rate of him throwing his items became faster.
Li Zhihuan is also busy healing his brother but his healing rate can barely keep up. He watched as Li Haoxuan's health went from 60%... 40%... 25% and then to 10%.
Just as Li Haoxuan was about to be hit with a Molotov Cocktail from the wild boss, Li Haoxuan's health went up to 30% without Li Zhihuan's heal. This is the effect of great heal.
"Did I make it in time?" Ye Xiu's voice came from behind him. Li Zhihuan turned to see Ye Xiu and his group coming over and he let out a sigh of relief. "Don't relax yet! Quickly cast heal on your brother."
"Ah, right!" Li Zhihuan quickly casts another small heal to Li Haoxuan and Li Haoxuan's health went from 30% to 38%.
"Master, should we go and help him?" Qiu Fei asked as he watched Li Haoxuan battled the wild boss.
"Hmm… no need for now. But when Lorraine reached 5% of his health, you two can go and help," Ye Xiu said before he started to cast another healing spell.
With another great heal, Li Haoxuan's health which was reduced to 24% raised up again to 54%. "Xiao Huan, take this time to cast Heal," Ye Xiu instructed Li Zhihuan who nods his head.
After another 2 sets of heals and a Holy Heal, Li Haoxuan is finally out of danger as his health is raised up to 83%.
The boss's health is finally down to 5% and both Qiu Fei and Qiao Yifan joined the battle. They sent a party request to Li Zhihuan earlier to avoid accidental kill steal.
By now, both Li Zhihuan's and Li Haoxuan's mana has completely run out so they pulled back to refill them with blue potions before joining again.
Soon, the wild boss fell and they finally went to check out the loot.
"So, did it drop?" Ye Xiu asked Li Zhihuan who is the leader of the party.
"No," he answered with a shake of his head.
"It's alright. There will be more future opportunities. For now, let's go and do Frost Forest dungeon."
"Eh? You guys reached level 20 already?" only now did Li Haoxuan realized that Qiu Fei and Qiao Yifan has changed their class to Battlemage and Ghostblade respectively.
"Did you not remember? Experience point and Drop rate are increased by five folds. Three runs of Skeleton Graveyard is enough to get us to level 20," Ye Xiu reminded him.
"And God Yu?" Li Haoxuan asked, referring to Yu Wenzhou.
"He's accompanying Huang Shaotian."
"Oh… Can I go to the village and restock my potions first?"
"No need," Ye Xiu opened the trade interface and handed 50 blue potions to both Li Haoxuan and Li Zhihuan. "We can't waste any more time. We'll breeze through the Frost Forest dungeon. Let's go."
