Chapter 358: Chapter 334: Fierce Battle with Baron Nash

Da Fei wasn’t a first-timer when it came to naval battles, but wading into a water battle on foot without a ship was indeed a first! The pitfall of water battles was their extreme impact on the troops’ Move Speed. If this BOSS had the force to churn seas and overturn rivers like regular Sea Monsters, the troops might not even be able to stand firm against the waves, let alone fight.

But after all, games are made for players to enjoy; there wouldn’t be an unbeatable BOSS. This immobile BOSS must have been designed with such considerations in mind. As per the old rules, send in the Illusion Army first, followed by the main force! Then, a blast of red light on Da Fei’s screen!

— System Prompt: You have entered Baron Nash’s alert range. Battle commences!

The battle has started! Da Fei was startled! This alert range was really far, twice as far as a Secret Archer’s range! Don’t tell me its attack range is twice that too—if that’s the case, it would indeed be a Human Cannon!

A thunderous roar echoed through the hall, a shockwave swept across the room! Then, the green and red lights on Da Fei’s troops turned into a screen of light that soared upwards and flew into the giant maw of the large meaty worm!

— System Prompt: Baron Nash has stolen the "Lizard Man Healing Staff" competition BUFF! Baron Nash’s strength has been enhanced!

— System Prompt: Baron Nash has stolen the "Dogman Arson Staff" competition BUFF! Baron Nash’s strength has been enhanced!

— System Prompt: Baron Nash has stolen the "Blood-sucking Tooth" competition BUFF...

— System Prompt: Baron Nash has stolen the "Corrosive Blood Frenzy Attack" competition BUFF...

— System Prompt: Baron Nash has stolen the "Alchemy Crucible" competition BUFF...

Damn it! Watching a slew of messages scroll across the screen, Da Fei was stunned! Although mentally prepared for BUFF theft, he hadn’t expected them to be stolen from such a distance! And without the protection of the BUFFs, the troops instantly became sluggish, with their Life Value and Stamina plummeting at a visibly rapid pace!

All in! I’ve got 115 Banshees, 50 Druids, 200 Secret Archers, plus a few dozen Forest Goddesses left, making up a total of 400 level 4 soldiers. Pretending the BOSS’s Defense and defensive skills negated my Attack and Arrow Skill bonuses, and pretending they only deal 10 points of actual damage, a round of attacks plus Invincible Luck’s double damage could deal 8000 damage to the BOSS! Not to mention that I have 44 Elite Cannon Emperors averaging 20 points of damage each, and 5 Storm Druids, who could contribute another 2000 damage with their attacks, I could deal a total of 10,000 damage in one go!

I want to see just how much Life Value this bare-pole BOSS has, and how many rounds it can withstand! Or, rather, how many seconds my troops can hold out, and how many rounds they can survive the BOSS!

Charge! Forward!

Just as BOSS stole all of Da Fei’s BUFFs, the hall’s sewer entrances around and the ceiling’s trapdoors opened one after another, torrents of green slime poured in, and in an instant, the entire pool became viscous, slowing down Da Fei’s troops’ charge yet again!

Damn it!

But that wasn’t all, bubbles in the slime began to burst forth, countless Slime Monsters emerged from the water, completely surrounding Da Fei’s troops!

Da Fei’s eyes narrowed in shock! Damn, I’ve been had, I thought this BOSS was just a Commander!

Just then, Da Fei’s Reconnaissance Skill sounded another alarm! At the same time, a huge red dot suddenly appeared on the radar map!

— System Prompt: Warning! A competing player is approaching you! Prepare for battle!

What! Da Fei turned around in alarm and sure enough, saw a player contingent appear on the path he’d come from! Japanese!

Damn! At this moment, Da Fei wanted to weep tears of frustration! In my entire gaming career, I’ve always been the one ambushing others, stealing other’s BOSSes, but now I’m the one who’s been ambushed, and not just once! And by the very sticks and dwarfs I can’t stand the most! Oh, heavens and earth, bless me with a Titan Divine Thunder to strike them down!

What to do! What to do? What else to do? I’m already over my head! Maybe I won’t even live to see the dwarfs stab me in the back, I’ll just drown in this pool of slime bubbles!

Da Fei gritted his teeth, Fight! Damn it, I refuse to accept this! At the very least, I have to clear a bloody path, to get close enough to the BOSS for a shot! Even if I die to the BOSS, I will not fall by the hands of dwarfs! The Hero’s Proof I’ve collected will not be cheapened by dwarfs.

Da Fei’s troops launched an attack on the Slime Monsters swarming from all directions. Now, without the ability to suck life or the Divine Wand to resist the acid corrosion, Da Fei’s troops’ Life Value rapidly plummeted under the damage of the triple plague and corrosion.

Selvia’s Healing Light enveloped the troops. However, the Banshees were beyond healing, and Da Fei was prepared to sacrifice all the Banshee Army in the first wave. But before their sacrifice, they must utilize their concentrated firepower to clear a path for me!

...

Japan Mitsubishi Team Command Center, a scene of noise and excitement!

We’ve found Da Fei! Da Fei is stuck in the mire!

Watching Da Fei’s struggling figure on the large screen on the wall, Igarashi laughed excitedly, "There’s a Chinese saying, ’beat a dog when it’s down’, and it couldn’t be more apt, haha, whahaha!"

Tsukamoto reminded, "President, we must not carelessly enter that pool, so Mr. Gao Chang must not act rashly."

Igarashi laughed, "Why would my eyes focus on a dog in the water? My target is this Baron Nash, the BOSS! Because the construction period for this competition was quite tight, this BOSS has not been tested for difficulty. Of course, the main reason is the developers probably never thought anyone could reach here. If we can take down this BOSS, we can definitely reap a huge harvest!"

Tsukamoto immediately said, "This Da Fei is still making a last-ditch struggle towards the BOSS, we can use him to exhaust the BOSS’s strength, and then Mr. Tsujiyama, Mr. Yamazaki, hurry here and join Mr. Gao Chang!"

Igarashi gestured grandly, "No! All our players on this map abandon entanglements with the Chinese and converge here, we must gather all of Japan’s full strength to take down this Baron Nash!"

"Hey!"

At this moment, Haidao Yigong’s cheers came through: "Da Fei’s Banshee Army is wiped out!"

The entire command center erupted in applause!

Igarashi, relieved, mused: "Dying this early doesn’t really serve our interests, but then again, amateur players are just amateur players; this is as far as they go."

Tsukamoto stated gravely: "However, for an amateur player to possess so many Banshees, that’s something worth noting. Especially these remaining banshees, they’re obviously Elite!"

Igarashi’s face darkened: "In the end, it’s because our logistics group didn’t do their job. Even a Human amateur player could obtain so many Advanced Hell troops and even so many Elite troops; what are they used for? If this were the military, they could disembowel themselves in apology! Starting today, the logistics group’s overtime is extended by two hours!"

"Hey!"

...

Now, Da Fei’s Banshee Army could not receive healing and was completely annihilated. Amidst the seemingly endless horde of Slime Monsters, their sacrifices did not clear a path for Da Fei to approach the Boss. Da Fei sighed in frustration; even with his Invincible Luck, he couldn’t make it to the Boss, couldn’t even land a hit.

And at the entrance of the sewer behind him, that Japanese player was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, posing in a way he thought was pretty cool, leisurely watching Da Fei struggle in his dying throes.

Da Fei clenched his teeth so hard they itched; that wretch is probably filming me now, isn’t he? If only I could Instant Teleport or fly, I’d turn around and slap that irritating dog dead! Just wait, when I get to the National War Zone, I’ll have plenty of chances to deal with you!

Wait! Fly? Holy fuck! How could I forget, my Artillery Emperor can fly! My Forest Goddess can fly! As long as they’re in the same battlefield, they can fly! Although it’s not possible to fly out of the battlefield to slap that little Japanese, at least they can hit the Boss!

Alright! Since the Artillery Emperor can’t be healed anyway, and they’re doomed to die with their high Life Value, I’ll let them fly to the Boss! If the Boss relies so much on Slime Monsters, maybe it’s just trash itself? Right! Whether it works or not, fly over there, let the Japanese see my strength, and I’ll scare the piss out of you!

Da Fei waved his hand grandly, and the Artillery Emperor and Forest Goddess took to the air, swooping at the Boss!

As expected, the moment they saw Da Fei’s Artillery Emperor taking flight, Haidao Yigong leaned on the wall in shock, while the Mitsubishi Command Center was in an uproar!

An amateur player, a Human player, not only had a huge Banshee Army, even numerous Elite Banshees, all this could be tolerated, but what was absolutely intolerable was the fact that these Elite Banshees could actually fly! Long-range flying troops! Every professional player knew what such troops meant! How could it be accepted by Japan, a territory designated for the Hell Race?

Igarashi trembled all over and roared in outrage: "Do you feel ashamed? Do you deserve the title of professional players? Do you deserve your professional salaries? Logistics group, overtime by 4 hours every day! No! All team members, 4 hours of overtime every day!"

"Hey!!!"

...

When the Boss was attacked by the break-through Flying Army, a loud roar echoed through the hall once more! The Liquid in the Blood Pool boiled instantly, all the Slime Monsters began to merge, forming a huge Slime Monster Boss!

It seems that after attacking the Boss, the battle will progress to the second phase, and the Boss will summon the big Boss, right? But Da Fei was already in despair! From the damage dealt by the Artillery Emperor’s sortie just now, the Boss had higher Defense than he had imagined! Absurdly high! The volley that was expected to cause a damage of 2000 did not even hit 200! It can no longer be described as a wall, this Boss!

And after the roar, the Boss started spewing bucket-sized jets of acid at the Artillery Emperor. An Artillery Emperor with only 200 remaining Life Value was unlucky to be hit and collapsed, screaming as it died!

Da Fei felt a sudden intense clench in his heart! These were the troops that he had painstakingly raised in the Abyss Blood Pool, enduring so much hardship! Fortunately, this was on the competition server, but if they had really died, how could he bear it? This meant that the Boss could instantly kill level 7 troops; there’s no point in fighting!

Now, the huge Slime Monster Boss had formed, and a gigantic Jelly Mountain rolling towards Da Fei’s troops!

At this moment, even the Mitsubishi Team Command Center watched the big screen with calm and undivided attention—if Da Fei couldn’t do it, neither could they!

Da Fei decided then and there, although it was summoned, it was still a Boss, right? If I can’t handle the main Boss, am I still unable to destroy you? Defeating you would at least reward me somewhat, right?

Da Fei immediately called the Artillery Emperor back, concentrated all firepower, and opened fire!

Arrow showers, Magic Bullets, Flame Chains rained down! Under the heavy bombardment, the Jelly Mountain shuddered tremulously!

Sure enough, stronger than the previous jelly, if one round of firepower can’t kill you, I’ll go for a second round! A third round! Probably, only three rounds of opportunity left. At this time, Da Fei gripped his Wooden Spear tightly and stared intensely at the Jelly, ready to charge in again for a weakening hit-and-kill—after all, that was the strategy just figured out!

The second round of firepower roared in, the Boss exploded with a bang, countless pieces of Slime flew in all directions, and they immediately wriggled and began to reassemble, looking to resurrect in no time—shit, died too early!

And just at that moment, a green mist drifted up from the pile of Slime, flying into Selvia’s Magic Wand! Those wriggling fragments instantly turned into green liquid.

—System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Anlicia used the Sea Soul Staff to absorb the soul of the Aggregate Slime Monster!

—System Prompt: You defeated the Aggregate Slime Monster, obtained a Hero’s Proof +1, received the competition item "Mysterious Alchemist’s Discarded Funnel".

What? Dead just like that? Da Fei couldn’t believe his own eyes! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
