Chapter 379: Got you?

This is a standalone high-rise building. There are no other buildings nearby, and they are all lower than this building. If other monsters want to come up, they can only enter through this building. However, the stairs have been destroyed by the white flames in advance, so they can take a short break and replenish their energy.

Anno glanced at the quest list; he still needed to kill some monsters and a mini-boss.

Although they were very efficient at killing monsters, there were three tasks to complete in this wasteland. The monsters in the wasteland were not like those in the sand dunes during the day, where they would all swarm out at once. The monsters here were of higher level and mostly acted independently, making the task quite difficult.

After replenishing their strength and energy, Anno and his team continued firing from the high-rise building.

Below, a bright area was created by players using incendiary bombs and flares to distract the monsters. With the players drawing fire, even monsters hiding in the shadows could be accurately spotted and killed.

"I'm almost out of bullets, just two left," Obsidian said in the consciousness network.

Mingxiao put away his gun. "I missed."

Poponia's last gunshot marked the completion of the mission's final monster kill, leaving only the yet-to-appear mini-boss.

Anno checked her ammunition; she only had one shot left, and the other members of her family also only had one or two shots left.

With three tasks piled up, it would be quite an achievement to complete them before running out of ammunition.

Poponia and Mingxiao's points were clearly insufficient to support the equipment consumption of their six-person team.

However, once they complete these tasks and earn points, they can continue to replenish their ammunition.

Anno launched the drone and crouched on the edge of the rooftop, searching for the mini-boss.

After receiving the intelligence, Sitar told them in the consciousness network: "This BOSS is small in size and has the ability to shapeshift. It will blend into the player group and ambush players."

After he finished speaking, his gaze quickly locked onto a certain spot below, "There."

Following Sitar's guidance, Anno saw a figure in a black combat suit weaving through the players. His hand transformed into a sharp blade, piercing through the players' bodies, killing them instantly without them even having time to see who had killed him.

After killing the player, the shadowy figure turned into a wisp of black mist and disappeared quickly, reappearing in another location the next second.

If it weren't for Anno and his team's exceptional dynamic vision, they wouldn't have been able to spot the BOSS at all.

Poponia had more ammunition, so Anno had him lock onto the shadowy figure and fire a shot at him.

The bullet passed through the shadowy figure's body, and the moment it hit him, he turned into a cloud of black mist, seemingly without causing him any harm.

It seems that shooting won't kill this boss.

“What are his weaknesses? Do you have any information?” Anno turned to look at Sitar.

Sitar's tall figure was hidden in the shadows. He quickly glanced down and said, "His weakness is light. He can turn into black mist. In fact, he took advantage of the night scene to create a kind of visual illusion, which even fooled us."

After hearing this, Mingxiao and the others felt that this ability sounded somewhat familiar.

"This is somewhat similar to the methods of Lord Vanguard..." Mingxiao muttered softly.

Caesar is a member of the Phantom Clan, possessing strong abilities to create clones and mental powers, which gives rise to real shapeshifting abilities. This is a true visual effect, unlike Tanvel, which is a mental illusion.

Anno's consciousness intersected with theirs for a moment, and he understood Caesar's ability and the solution.

A phantom is still just a phantom. The fact that it can produce a realistic effect means that the real entity is nearby and can be caught if you get close.

This derivative ability also made Caesar invincible on the battlefield, like a god of war, because the enemy could not lock onto his true form.

However, as members of the same clan, Mingxiao and the others were very familiar with each other's abilities.

"Looks like this game has collected quite a few combat abilities," Tanvel said into the headset.

Sitar gazed down, his hand reaching for the long sword at his waist. He glanced at Anno, his expression hidden in the darkness, though his eyes flickered slightly.

Anno's attention was focused on the BOSS that was moving among the players below. It had already killed quite a few players, and judging from their panicked reactions, this BOSS could probably wipe them all out.

After killing another player, the BOSS suddenly looked up in Anno's direction.

But in an instant, Anno felt it was an illusion.

After quickly devising a strategy in his mind, Anuo went downstairs with Mingxiao and the others.

Using the climbing ropes, they quickly reached the battlefield below. The players already knew there was a powerful monster behind them, so they all gathered together. The bright firelight surrounded them, leaving the monster nowhere to hide.

Anno nimbly leaped down from the building, drew her long sword from her waist, dealt with a monster that pounced on her, and threw a small ball to the ground.

This is a bouncy ball that bounces and jumps randomly within a three-meter radius around the holder. It's designed to prevent monsters that can turn invisible from getting close and attacking. It will sound an alarm if it hits any living thing, making it perfect for finding this boss.

Anuo and Mingxiao ran quickly around the area. After they flipped over a car that was blocking her way, the bouncy ball sounded an alarm and flashed red light.

Almost instantly, before anyone could be seen, Anno swung his sword.

"Clang!"

A crisp clang of sharp weapons clashing rang out. The dark figure blocked Anno's knife with his hand, then grabbed Anno's knife and pounced on her. The moment he tackled Anno, his body began to grow larger.

Without hesitation, she pulled a dagger from the straps on her thigh and stabbed it into the shadowy figure's body. The figure was extremely strong, pressing down on her body so she couldn't move, and remained unmoved even after being stabbed.

Anno saw a pair of enormous wings unfold behind the dark figure and exclaimed excitedly, "I've caught you! The king will definitely reward me!"
