Chapter 52: Mutation and Strengthening of BOSS
Even if they cannot take it down themselves, they will never let other city-states succeed, since it is right at their doorstep.
As for why the mutated BOSS near Xuantian City was discovered, it was because the various city-states in Jinjiang District began to have contacts and exchanges, and there were several waves of teams from Xuantian City heading to the same destination together.
People living in other city-states also have family members in Xuantian City. So people from outer cities came to Xuantian City from all directions and discovered the mutated BOSS.
Some teams in Xuantian City also began to consider joining forces to kill this mutant BOSS.
It is impossible to say that they are not afraid of the city lord, but the city lord of their city has always been quite Buddhist and has not shown up yet, so everyone feels this way.
Brother Wen is struggling over whether or not to participate in the killing plan.
"That mutant boss has been out for almost a week, and our city lord hasn't made any move. Could it be that he's really not in the city looking for his family?"
What A Liu said was also the question in Brother Wen's mind. Doesn't their city lord care about the mutated BOSS at all?
"Although they said they planned to kill the boss together, the one near our city is too powerful. It can take on two mutant bosses in other places."
This is the worst thing. I don’t know if the system is unhappy with Xuantian City, so it directly spawned such a powerful mutated and strengthened BOSS.
Even if all the team members in the city go together, there is no guarantee that there will be no casualties.
In this world, we don’t even know if we can have more children. Now, if one dies, there will be one less child, and we can’t replenish fresh blood.
So after the initial panic, some people will intentionally keep their teammates alive, not only because professional players are rare, but also because there will be no fresh blood.
"Brother Wen, it wasn't until I went to other cities that I realized how good Xuantian City is. Even if we don't participate in the plan to kill the boss, we have to protect the boss from being snatched away by people from other cities."
Brother Wen listened to her and nodded. He also formed a temporary team during this period, but his main purpose was to clear the area on the way back and forth.
Only after going to other city-states did they discover how powerful the NPCs of Xuantian City were. In their opinion, it was normal for NPCs to have their own thoughts, and they would not conflict with NPCs.
But the NPCs in other city-states are like the lowest-end robots, answering one question at a time and not saying anything more.

When the team in the city was considering whether to gather together to defeat the BOSS, Lu Jiu and his team finally returned to Xuantian City.
On the way back, they also saw residents of Xuantian City going to Jinghe District, and it seemed that they also had family members there.
Lu Jiu was glad that other residents went there, which would confuse people and make it even more difficult for them to figure out Jiu Ci's true identity.
After returning to the city, Zhuang Yun immediately said goodbye to them and went back to see his daughter. He hadn't seen her for two weeks and missed her very much.
Lu Jiu and Shen Jufeng also returned to the City Lord's Mansion and summoned a patrol NPC to inquire about the latest situation in the city.
The person who came was a male magician NPC. Seeing that the city lord Lu Jiu was neither humble nor arrogant, he nodded slightly.
"The city has been quite peaceful recently. A week ago, a mutated and strengthened boss appeared near the city-state, and no one dared to act rashly."
"Mutation and strengthening?" Lu Jiu was confused by this word. It was just mutation, but it was embellished with the word "strengthen". It sounded like it was not a simple wild monster.
"Yes, this one is even more powerful. Given the current level of professional players, they can only use the human wave tactic."
"Are there any teams from other city-states in the city?" Shen Jufeng asked. He was the deputy city lord and was qualified to ask the NPC about this situation.
The magician thought of the people from outside the city paying special attention to the behavior of NPCs like them, and smiled slightly, "Yes, but they are just watching now. After all, this is Xuantian City's territory."
The most important reason is that the BOSS is too strong.
It’s enough to know this information, “Thank you for your help.”
The magician simply smiled in response and continued on his patrol.
Lu Jiu held his forehead and said, "Please don't let it be a bug again." The previous two were bugs, which was really troublesome, and most humans really don't like the image of bugs.
"Sometimes the less you think about something, the more it will become." Shen Jufeng poured cold water on him mercilessly.
"Then go and take a look. Don't ask the NPC too much."
Shen Jufeng nodded. He was very interested in this mutated and strengthened BOSS.
Nowadays, people have become smarter and will not easily say where the BOSS is. It is also rare to mention where the BOSS is in the same city chat channel.
Generally, the location of the BOSS has a very obvious feature, that is, that area is out of tune with the surrounding area, as if it were a place specially set aside for them.
The place where the mutated and strengthened BOSS stayed this time was so conspicuous that it seemed wrong at first glance. However, they had passed by this place before, and it seemed as if a different area had appeared here overnight.
While the surrounding giant trees were still dark green, the giant trees in this area still had dark bark, and the leaves had turned dark brown. A few leaves would fall from time to time, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves.
The fallen leaves had already formed an area of about 40*40 meters. When Lu Jiu and the others arrived, there were other people guarding the area.
Most of these are team members within Xuantian City.
The two of them ignored these people, and they just watched them enter the BOSS area quietly.
The moment they stepped directly into the fallen leaves area, they heard a "whoosh" sound, and Lu Jiu subconsciously leaned back.
She clearly saw that several strands of hair on her forehead had been cut off.
When she stood up again, Shen Jufeng was standing not far from her, but she hadn't seen the BOSS yet.
"On your left, look carefully at where the leaf is moving." Shen Jufeng's words rang in his ears.
Lu Jiu focused his attention on that area, and then found something wrong. There was something moving there, and it was quite large.
It is obvious that this is the mutated and strengthened BOSS.
When the BOSS saw that its attack missed and its position was discovered, it climbed down from the tree lightly. Only then did Lu Jiu see clearly that it was a mantis.
And when it moves, the color of its body will change according to the environment.
【Color-changing Mantis】（Mutation-enhanced BOSS）
Qi and blood: 3200
Attack: 88-218
Defense: 66
Speed: 99
Effect: Air sickle - The mutant mantis is extremely fast and can use the air sickle once every 15 minutes. It can attack prey through the air, and the prey will suffer high damage when hit.
The strong point of this BOSS is its speed. The attack they just suffered was an air sickle. They didn't expect that this BOSS was such a tough guy and used his ultimate move right from the start.
There were other people around, and she and Shen Jufeng had already seen the information about what the BOSS was, so they exited the fallen leaves area.
"You guys are pretty good. This is the first time I've seen someone come in unscathed."
After exiting, these words rang in his ears. Lu Jiu looked over and found that it was the captain of a team in the city.
This man was wearing a suit similar to a combat uniform, with slightly longer hair tied in a small bun at the back of his head. He had the most popular young and handsome look at the moment.
