Chapter 117 Setting Fire to the Forest
Setting fire to the forest and the thick smoke from the raging fire will surely wake up this great monster.
Shen Jue took out a torch and a wad of flammable cotton.
Light the cotton wads on fire and toss them into the air.
The torch flew towards the dense forest. The flame collided with the leaves, producing only a few sparks; the fire did not ignite. (In the real world, you can't set forests on fire.)
Just then, a gust of wind came from somewhere and happened to ignite the spark, turning it into a small flame.
Shen Jue originally wanted to add fuel to the fire. But she saw a small flame that was not blown out by the wind. Instead, it spread little by little with the help of the wind, turning into a small fire, which then burned the leaves and became a large fire.
Shen Jue watched all of this unfold quietly.
She put on a mask, unfazed by the smoke and dust.
The fire burned ever brighter, and smoke billowed into the sky.
The flames surrounded Shen Jue and the giant monster.
The huge monster, who was fast asleep, suddenly felt something was wrong.
Why does it smell like something's burnt?
The big monster sniffed, and then discovered...
Indeed, something was burnt, and it was his own fur that was burnt.
The reason it didn't feel pain was partly because of its thick skin and partly because it was impervious to water and fire, and flames couldn't break through its defenses.
But why would fire suddenly fall from the sky out of nowhere?
The giant monster was somewhat confused, but the feeling of being burned all over was not pleasant, so it decided to deal with it first.
So, the big boss started spewing profanities, and the steam he exhaled was like dry ice, with a built-in cooling effect.
Shen Jue was also sprayed with the spray.
Shen Jue was stunned. Could it be done like this?
She reported that there was a boss here who was physically overpowered.
The great monster extinguished the fire, and then discovered that its forest had an uninvited guest.
The uninvited guest was clearly Shen Jue.
At this moment, the big boss remembered that it had a quest to complete in this instance.
If you encounter a player, either kill the player or be killed by the player.
The only difference is that it dies, but can be resurrected.
When a player dies, they are truly dead.
Thinking of this, the big boss suddenly opened his eyes, revealing his fierce nature, and stared intently at Shen Jue.
He watched as the big boss stared intently at him, a mere little karami.
To be honest, she was a little timid too.
She might not be confident of defeating the boss alone, but she can call Qingfeng out. With two of them fighting one, how could they possibly lose?
The boss, whose prototype was unknown, stood up.
Then, Shen Jue watched as the boss, who was originally only two meters tall, suddenly became ten meters tall.
Shen Jue: ...
Okay, okay, so you're playing a height scam on her, huh?
Originally, she and Qingfeng wanted to fight this boss in close combat, but now they realized that close combat was impossible. The boss could easily slap her into the ground and she wouldn't be able to be pried off.
We can only resort to ranged attacks to wear them down.
Once awake, you can search for the big boss's weaknesses from all angles, 360 degrees, without any blind spots.
"Let's do it!"
The sun is shining so brightly here, we can't waste such a great opportunity.
Since ordinary weapons cannot break through its defenses, her light arrows can become ethereal and inflict negative status effects on the boss.
Little by little, once the boss is affected, there will be no shortage of opportunities to strike.
Shen Jue first used a light arrow to apply status effects such as weakness and slow to the boss.
Although the boss isn't fast to begin with, the weakness and slowing effects of the light arrows only reduce its attack speed.
Sometimes, the speed of an attack can determine the victory of a battle.
Just now, this big boss was trying to spit on her and Qingfeng to freeze them.
As a result, it was hit by her slowing light arrow, which allowed Shen Jue to detect any movement it made in advance.
This situation lasted for some time.
The big boss finally realized something was wrong.
Big Boss: It reported that someone is cheating!
How did this weapon end up in the hands of players at this stage? Something must be wrong, and I need to report it.
What the big boss didn't know was that it was facing a super-powerful player who had unlocked several side quests and obtained rare rewards.
It's not surprising that such a player would possess this weapon.
If this boss weren't so well-rounded in its defenses, Shen Jue wouldn't have used the bow and arrow.
Because other weapons are useless against it; even the upgraded Thousand Stars cannot break through this monster's defenses.
Even more outrageous, when she used Thousand Star, this big boss actually looked at her with a mocking expression.
Shen Jue originally thought that the boss would prove him wrong, but unexpectedly, he was the one who was proven wrong.
Aside from the Thousand-Cross Bow, there really aren't any other weapons that can counter this boss.
No wonder the boss didn't react at all when she took out her weapon; it turned out she was certain she couldn't break through its defenses.
Shen Jue guessed that this boss might not know that he possessed a weapon that could freely switch between reality and illusion.
While pondering, Shen Jue released five more light arrows. Her mental strength had been trained to the point that she could now successfully control five flying arrows.
That's so cool.
The giant monster tried to dodge the arrow of light, but it found itself unable to. The arrow of light inexplicably shot into its own body.
Although it did not cause any real damage, its body became heavier and its movements became slower and slower. It even had some difficulty waving its hand to crush the player, Shen Jue.
Moreover, this player was very clever, constantly depleting its stamina by attacking and then running away. After several exchanges, the boss had used up a lot of its stamina, while Shen Jue remained unaffected.
Fighting this tough boss with its thick skin and high health requires a slow and steady approach; it's a long battle that demands careful attention. A moment's carelessness and you're out of luck.
This is also a difficult challenge for Shen Jue.
Because of the long-term mental battle with this kind of boss, her mental strength was also very tired.
Fortunately, I made a lot of spirit restoration potions before entering the dungeon, and one sip brought me back to full health.
After nearly a day of fighting, this boss is still not exhausted, which is truly beyond Shen Jue's expectations.
This boss is quite resilient. During the battle, she often gleaned information from the boss's battle emotions.
