Jiang Yuan had originally planned to go outside the mine to take a look, but unfortunately, the fifth-tier lord monster, the Black Horned Boar, appeared.
They had never been to the mine before, and their search for the lord was far slower than that of Ji Jinghui and his group. However, none of them cared, because it was better if Ji Jinghui and his group didn't come, as they could get more spoils.
"Black Horned Boar, Tier 5 Lord Monster, Strength: 54, Spirit: 17, Talent: Charged Charge".
After being detected by the Heavenly Eye, this fifth-tier lord monster was found to be a rare dual-element monster, which is undoubtedly very rare.
Jiang Yuan had only seen a handful of dual-evolvers among humans, and Leng Yue, who wielded the sniper rifle, was one of them. Dual-evolvers have a significant advantage. If Leng Yue didn't have dual-evolvers, it would be difficult for her to move around and shoot targets with a sniper rifle, which requires powerful physical strength to control. Soul energy, on the other hand, gives her even greater control.
"As expected of a fifth-tier lord, its strength is formidable!" Jiang Yuan took it seriously. This black-horned boar already had fifty-four points of strength, not far from the threshold of sixty-four. Once it became a sixth-tier lord, its strength would double.
"Xiong Yong, hold on!" Zhu Penghai shouted angrily, and then he and Qian Kai each stood on one side to protect Xiong Yong.
This fifth-tier lord-level black-horned boar is only four meters long and two meters tall. Although it is not particularly outstanding among the many huge monsters, its strength is undeniable. It is a ferocious monster that can really push your lungs out if it hits you. No one can afford to be careless.
"Black Tortoise Bloodline, activated!"
The black-horned boar began its charge, while Xiong Yong activated his bloodline, preparing to fight head-on. The large shield in his hand was no ordinary object; if he could block even one attack, he could gauge the true strength of his opponent.
But the imagination was beautiful, but the reality was cruel. The fifth-tier lord's black-horned boar charged straight through Xiong Yong's defenses, and while the three men were knocked away, the black-horned boar charged straight at Xiang Yeyun.
"Night Cloud, hide quickly!"
Qian Kai screamed hysterically, and Xiang Yeyun, who had just been casting a buff on the group, was caught off guard. The group had no idea that the black-horned boar was so ferocious, breaking through the group's strongest defense with a single blow.
Jiang Yuan wanted to go to the rescue, but it was too late. Ning Yanlan didn't react in time either, as she was currently preparing to attack the Black Horned Boar with ice spikes.
Yang Wenlin, who had been following Xiang Yeyun, suddenly found the courage to shield Xiang Yeyun upon seeing this scene. "Hand hardening!"
Like water placed in an ultra-low temperature environment, Yang Wenlin's arms quickly solidified, while the black-horned pig had already crashed into him.
Clang! The unicorn clashed with the hardened arm. Yang Wenlin, whose strength was less than four points, could not withstand such an impact. He and Xiang Yeyun behind him were sent flying more than thirty meters. If the mine tunnel had not been long enough, the two of them might have crashed into the mine wall and died.
"Ice spikes!"
As she unleashed her attack, Ning Yanlan disregarded how much spiritual energy she consumed and cast a shield on the two people who had already flown far away. That was all she could do.
"Don't let the black horned boars charge, or we won't be able to stop them!" Jiang Yuan shouted.
The Black Horned Boar's high burst damage comes from its charge. If its movement is restricted, its power level is only 54, instead of the current state where it can't even block.
"Snowfall Veil!" Upon hearing this, Ning Yanlan immediately cast a skill at the feet of the Black Horned Boar. However, given the level difference, the effect of Snowfall Veil was minimal, just like when facing the sixth-tier Vajra Great Shovel Boar last time. Nevertheless, it did have a slight slowing effect.
"Xiong Yong, you defend at close range and try to prevent it from charging! Qian Kai and I will harass it from the side!" Zhu Penghai rubbed his neck, which had almost been broken by the impact.
"Good!" Xiong Yong stood up; the attack hadn't injured him much.
"I can't go on, my leg is broken!"
Qian Kai's voice sounded unnatural, and his whole body was trembling. You could see that his legs had been bent slightly.
"I'll take it!" Jiang Yuan drew his sword and stepped forward, casually tossing a pill to Qian Kai. "Eat this, and if you can still stand, keep fighting!"
Once you embark on this path, there's no turning back. Jiang Yuan is ruthless to himself and ruthless to others. Getting hurt is not a reason for you to avoid the fight.
"Xiong Yong! Charge!"
Xiong Yong used a skill unique to shield warriors—Shield Bash. Holding the shield in his left hand, he braced his right shoulder and body against the shield and charged straight at the Black Horned Boar's head.
Shield warriors are undoubtedly the most dangerous class, but they are indispensable. An excellent shield warrior is often the key to determining the outcome of a battle.
Xiong Yong was faster than the Black Horned Boar, and in one swift motion, he slammed his shield into the boar's head. Jiang Yuan and Zhu Penghai emerged from under Xiong Yong's shield, and in a single exchange, the two attacked the Black Horned Boar from the left and right.
The powerful shield bash stunned the Blackhorn Boar for a tenth of a second, and in that short time, two attacks had already landed on its body.
The blood drawn from the iron scimitar piercing the black-horned boar's belly directly activated Jiang Yuan's bloodlust talent, and the long-lost sound of his heartbeat reappeared in his ears.
"howl!"
The black-horned boar thrashed about wildly, and another icicle shot into its body, making it even more frenzied.
"careful!"
Enraged, the black-horned boar charged straight at Ning Yanlan. Jiang Yuan grabbed the shield from Xiong Yong and charged forward using Wolf Step.
They could handle this fifth-tier lord-level beast themselves; it was a tacit understanding between him and Ning Yanlan, which is why he chose to take the shield with him.
As soon as Jiang Yuan got his hands on the shield, he regretted it.
What kind of lousy shield is this? It must weigh at least 300 pounds. But it was too late to regret it. Jiang Yuan could only play the fool for once.
"First-tier Berserk!"
