Chapter 404 [(*^▽^*)]

After Wang Fu understood the meaning behind his gaze, the corner of his mouth twitched. It seemed that was indeed the case, but that didn't stop him from disliking the two women. All he had with them was a sincere and pure friendship!

Xue Rui, "Are these positions okay?"

Wang Fu, "Does your prop have a large coverage area?"

Xue Rui looked at the ground floor and said, "If I stand in that position, I can cover two-thirds of the ground floor."

Wang Fu nodded, "That's a good idea. How about we lure the elite monsters to the first floor?"

Xue Rui's eyes flickered slightly. "What do you mean?"

Wang Fu winked at him, "Haha! I think you can understand what I'm thinking. What comes to mind, everyone?"

Zhou Qiao rolled her eyes behind his back, while Zhao Wan smiled gently without saying a word; neither of them had expected this.

Zhou Feng was taken aback for a moment, then said somewhat uncertainly, "First floor...first floor..."

"By the way, when the elite monster went berserk before, it never forgot to avoid load-bearing walls. If it's on the first floor, will it be more restrained when it attacks?"

After Zhou Feng's reminder, everyone suddenly understood! That's it! This will prevent elite monsters from using their full strength!

Xue Rui: "Then it's settled. Apart from the three who go to lure the elite monster, the rest of you should all hide, just in case. Once I succeed, the elite monster's speed will naturally slow down, and then everyone can use all their strength to kill it!"

I don't know if three hours will be enough. Sometimes it takes more than three hours to clear a dungeon and fight a boss in a game, let alone an elite monster like this.

Last night's event involved item consumption, and although it was eventually discovered, it still dealt significant damage to the elite monsters, which allowed them to kill them.

Wang Fu led the remaining people into hiding. They had hidden themselves many times before to ensure they wouldn't be discovered by the elite monsters.

Meanwhile, Huajiao, Fang Hong, and Zhou Qiao quickly headed up towards the location of the elite monster, which was still chasing one of the male players.

The player looked exhausted. If it weren't for the item, he would have been caught long ago. Just then, he quickly stepped on a table, jumped up, grabbed the hole above, and escaped.

The hole was originally created by the elite monster stomping its feet to make it easier to go up and down, and now it's also the player's escape route. He originally thought the elite monster would still chase after him, so he ran away as fast as he could, not daring to look back at all. But when he didn't hear any movement behind him for several minutes, he realized that the elite monster didn't seem to be following him anymore.

The elite monster had originally planned to chase after him, but just as he was about to go up, Huajiao and the other two appeared below. The elite monster hesitated for a moment, then decided to give up on escaping upwards and jumped directly into the cave.

Except for the 43rd and 44th floors, all the floors below had a hole he made with his foot in the same location. With this jump, he went straight down to the tenth floor!

Meanwhile, Huajiao and her companions had already jumped out of the broken window. The elite monster soon caught up with them, and by the time it jumped out of the window, the three of them had already reached the third floor.

After the elite monster grabbed onto the third-floor window ledge and climbed in, the three of them jumped directly into the hole and leaped to the first floor.

Xue Rui is now in the best position. There are things blocking the view, so he is not likely to be accidentally injured. Moreover, the camera-shaped prop in his hand can capture two-thirds of the area.

He's holding the camera right now, maintaining the shooting posture, and absolutely cannot move!

After the three of them appeared, they immediately split up and hid. Of course, they didn't dare to hide too well; they just wanted the elite monsters to feel the strong vitality of this floor.

This way, he could stay on the first floor if he couldn't find anyone, and Xue Rui would have the opportunity to maintain his speed for ten seconds, reducing the elite monster's speed to one-tenth of its original speed.

Xue Rui took a deep breath. Just then, the elite monster appeared on the first floor. He jumped down from the third floor and slammed his knees hard on the ground. The force of the impact cracked the ground, and the cracks covered the entire floor like a spider web.

The crack stopped just at Xue Rui's feet, and Xue Rui was standing against the wall, which was the edge of a load-bearing wall. Behind him was the outside of the building.

This shows just how exaggerated the spiderweb-like crack is.

After arriving on the first floor, the elite monster did not search around. Instead, it stood still and looked around with some confusion. It even sniffed, as if it were trying to smell the life force of a living person.

"It smells so good..."

The way he sniffed was truly perverted, and he even had a drooling smile on his face while sniffing, with saliva dripping down his chin and onto the ground, emitting a putrid stench.

They were all ghosts after all; everything about him reeked!

Xue Rui silently counted in his mind, four seconds... five seconds...

Although the elite monster didn't see any delicious food here, the aroma made his mouth water, so he didn't plan to leave. He knew that many delicious snacks were hidden here, and he wouldn't be satisfied until he found them.

Especially since he doesn't have a very high IQ right now and relies on instinct most of the time, staying here is also out of instinct. The concentration of life force here made him give up the two small delicacies that were making familiar noises above!

Xue Rui was a little nervous. Seven seconds... eight seconds...

The elite monster took a step forward and began searching for what he wanted on this floor. As he walked, he bumped into a wall. He instinctively threw a punch forward, punching through the wall in front of him.

Xue Rui narrowed his eyes. This wall wasn't a load-bearing wall, but judging from his expression, would he really avoid a load-bearing wall?

Surely he'll avoid it, right? If he doesn't, he'll collapse the whole building, and then the final boss will appear, won't he?

Wait a minute! If the BOSS appears, won't they all die right now? After all, the dungeon BOSS is allied with these elite monsters and ordinary ghosts. How could they possibly kill the elite monsters and weaken their own combat power?

But it's already this late, and everyone else is waiting. Is he really going to give up now for his own sake? No way. If the BOSS really does show up now, they can just keep hiding. Anyway, the building will return to normal at six o'clock.

Xue Rui silently counted down the last two seconds, nine seconds... ten seconds! Time's up!

The elite monster who was still strolling around suddenly felt his body was very heavy. He could normally take several steps forward with just a little effort, but now it felt like he was stuck in the mud!

Xue Rui immediately appeared on the first floor and shouted, "Make your move!"

He was holding a Beretta pistol, a gift from Lin Leyou. This time, he had loaded it with explosive bullets and aimed it at the elite monster's vulnerable spots on its face, such as its eyes, nose, and mouth, before the monster could react.

He practiced his marksmanship at the Bureau's special shooting range in the real world, and he also used it a lot in dungeons. Now, while he can't say he's 100% accurate, he rarely misses!

The first shot hit the elite monster's left eye with perfect accuracy, and... as expected, even the strongest person has a weakness, and this eyepiece was his weakness. An explosive bullet was fired at it.

The bullet pierced his left eye, and just as the elite monster instinctively tried to dig it out, the bullet exploded!

"Awooo—!!"

The elite monster let out a miserable wail. At that moment, the explosive bullet exploded directly in its eye socket, blowing its eyeball, along with some brain matter and even some of the skin and flesh outside the eye socket into pieces that were scattered all over the first floor. The bones, however, were not shattered; they were too hard!

Great, now we have the materials Wang Fu needs for that prop. He can collect them by simply wiping his finger on the ground!

At this moment, the elite monster covered its exploded left eye with both hands, twisting its body and staggering around on the first floor, howling in agony.

The roar shattered the few remaining panes of glass around them, and some of the remaining mirrors also broke. Xue Rui didn't care about that. He stared at the gaping mouth, paused for a moment, and then fired two shots in quick succession!

At least one of the two bullets should have penetrated the hole, right? If the marksmanship is good, it's not impossible for both to go in at the same time. And the final result...

Naturally, both bullets went into the elite monster's mouth at the same time. The explosive bullets detonated as soon as they hit the flesh, and now... the elite monster's tongue, jaw, and even a small part of its neck were blown apart!

The rotten bits of meat were scattered everywhere, and an unbearable stench of decay permeated the first floor. Fortunately, all the doors and windows on the first floor were broken, allowing the stench to dissipate.

Without a tongue and throat, the elite monster could no longer roar or speak, or even make a sound. It could only silently clutch its head and wail.

Xue Rui, "Attack where he's injured!"

Everyone aimed their weapons at his injured chin and head. After all, his severely injured eyes were covered by his hands, so the only place they could hit was his chin, which had been blown off.

The wound was quite large. They tried shooting at the outside of the skin, but it didn't work at all. They just didn't expect that shooting from the inside would be so effective!

The damage caused by Xue Rui's three explosive bullets was really severe, and it used very few points. However, they didn't have a chance to hit his eyes, let alone his mouth!

After all, the elite monsters would detect players approaching them in advance, and they wouldn't dare to get too close to ambush them, because once they were discovered, it meant death!

It could only be Xue Rui. Somehow he went invisible and appeared just in time for the elite monster to react, plus his speed has now been reduced to one-tenth of what it used to be.
