Chapter 50
[File loading successful]
After his fourth death, Su Xingyuan began to think calmly about his life.
So when the man showed up, he saw that the black-haired boy not only did not show a solemn expression, but he simply sat down cross-legged, took out a piece of dessert from somewhere, and asked in a friendly manner: "Would you like to eat?"
The man who was about to give a speech: "?"
Wait, weren't you really excited about fighting just now? Why are you suddenly eating? ?
The savior's style is so disjointed, will it make him hallucinate some kind of mentally ill person with dual personality?
The enemy's strange reaction made the man even more cautious, fearing that it was a trap set by the enemy.
In order to prevent any unexpected events, he quickly said what he wanted to say and directly summoned the magic snake.
The gigantic monster appeared above the cemetery in the blink of an eye, and even brought up a strong wind the moment it took shape, lifting up all the long black hair behind the only hunter.
Even the man himself, seeing this scene, would feel a surge of adrenaline at the power and terror of the demon snake.
What a perfect and powerful creation this is, and the owner of this creation is himself!
He looked at the black-haired boy with great pride, trying to find some emotion such as fear from the expression on his face, but found that the other party remained calm, even numb.
Especially when eating, the feeling of watching monkeys is even stronger.
He was even able to stuff another piece of dessert into his mouth and remain unmoved by the demon snake's roar.
"……?"
This was not quite what he had imagined.
The man's expression became a little stiff, and he began to doubt involuntarily whether the savior could really grow so quickly. Even the demon snake that saw him could remain calm and unconcerned, as if it did not take his hard work seriously at all.
If the man knew that this was the fifth time that Su Xingyuan had fought this cemetery BOSS, he probably wouldn't feel strange anymore.
As long as it is repeated a few times, even a terrifying two-headed demon snake can be seen by players as a small spicy strip with brighter colors.
Moreover, the player has tried the previous save file. Before the magic snake was formed, the monsters that it used as materials and nutrients had their health locked and could not be defeated at all. So the plot during this period was no different from a cutscene for the player.
So he was just eating some snacks while the cutscene was playing, that's not too much, right?
Su Xingyuan was not only very calm, he even regretted not putting a barbecue grill in his backpack.
The man in black robe who subtly saw the black-haired boy's mood at the moment: "..."
The unhappy feeling suddenly reached its peak.
He immediately gave the order:
"Demon snake, tear him into pieces!"
As soon as the words fell, the four eyes of the two-headed demon snake suddenly lit up with the ferocious light unique to wild beasts.
This is the signal for the battle to begin.
The moment the words fell, the black-haired boy, who seemed to be unprepared, suddenly flipped backwards without hesitation. At the moment his body was in the air, he avoided the high-speed magic slash spit out from the snake's mouth without any mistake!
Two fierce purple magic slashes overlapped and hit him behind him, and he fell from the air at this time, calculating that he would land exactly on the intersection of the two slashes on the ground.
Then, he gently wiped the dessert crumbs on the corner of his lips with his thumb, raised his eyes, and gave a smile without any emotion to the magic snake and its controller behind it.
Believing that these two attacks would at least make the black-haired boy look very miserable even if they would not kill him immediately, the man's pupils shrank as he looked at the scene in disbelief.
He had absolute confidence in the speed of the demon snake. After just observing, he also had a rough idea of the speed of the black-haired boy and determined that the other party could not avoid this attack.
But the reality was that he not only dodged it, but also did not hesitate at all.
It was as if the demon snake's attack trajectory had been predicted long ago!
Is it a skill, or simply prediction?
The man's brows frowned unconsciously.
The absolute confidence that could keep the boy here forever suddenly had a flaw and became a little uncertain.
"Demon snake, attack with all your strength!"
He must be killed as quickly as possible!
The more uncertain we are, the less we can allow for any unexpected changes!
The command made the two-headed snake even more manic. It made a hissing sound in its throat and began to swing its body.
Despite its huge body, its movements were extremely agile. In just a split second, the snake's tail lashed directly towards the black-haired boy on the ground. It was so fast that it even left a trail of afterimages.
Before this, the black-haired boy stood still without moving.
When dealing with this kind of enemy, moving randomly and irrationally, or using skills indiscriminately will only lead to your death sooner.
One strike from it could drain his HP completely, so he couldn't be attacked by any enemy. He had to clear all distracting thoughts, fully mobilize his five senses, look at everything in the battle with absolute calmness, and then -
Accumulate sufficient conditions for the subsequent counterattack!
The flow of air and the approaching sound brought a subtle intuition about the distance. The black-haired boy did not pay any attention to the huge snake's tail, but took out a bamboo fishing rod.
Then, he jumped up instantly, pulled his arms back, and threw the fishing line directly upwards!
The fishhook, which was exerted with great force, suddenly pierced through the strong wind and, just like it did to the dragon, was deeply embedded in the scales of the demon snake!
[100% attractive to aquatic life]
The magic snake's attention was instantly drawn to the little gadget on its body. It swung its body frantically, and the fishhook with the fishing line embedded in its body was swinging, carrying Su Xingyuan, who was already in mid-air, away from the spot, and once again avoided the huge snake tail that swept by with a nearly perfect timing!
Congratulations on achieving a perfect dodge! 】
[Within ten seconds, your agility will increase by 20%! 】
Perfect dodge the second stack.
Almost instantly, his speed increased a lot, and this time, the man even found it difficult to keep up with him!
“Damn it!”
The man gritted his teeth. Even though the situation was clearly on his side and the black-haired boy didn't even hurt the demon snake at all, he still couldn't help but sweating around his ears.
He stared closely at the high-speed moving young hunter: "The speed increased again within a few seconds... What kind of ability is this!"
The more you attack him, the faster he becomes, and the harder it is to catch him!
It was as if the longer the battle lasted, the more advantageous it was to him, completely overturning the man's inherent understanding of humans fighting monsters.
Countless thoughts flashed through the black-robed man's mind at once, but among these thoughts, only one was particularly clear -
This black-haired hunter who is called the savior must be completely killed in this cemetery!
Otherwise, when he fully grows up, he will definitely become the biggest hidden danger for the demons coming to this world as predicted!
Seeing that the snake's tail couldn't hit him and the fishhook was still tightly hanging on his body, the magic snake suddenly became more irritated. Deep purple magic power condensed in its mouth again and rushed towards Su Xingyuan from two different angles!
The speed of the magic slash is so fast that it does not give people any time to react. It can hit the target almost as soon as you see it appear.
At this moment, the black-haired boy's extremely pure turquoise eyes were filled with a sharp purple.
However, beneath the purple light was not panic, but absolute calmness.
In the eyes of the man who created the magic snake, Su Xingyuan only had one chance. He could only keep dodging. As long as he was hit by the magic snake's attack once, he would die.
However, his attacks were unable to inflict sufficient damage on the demon snake, creating an almost unsolvable dead end.
But what the man in black robe could never have imagined was that the one who really had countless chances was not him who seemed to be sure of winning, but Su Xingyuan who could die if he was not careful.
In this case, players just need to be steady.
He reeled in the fishing rod without any hesitation.
In an instant, the black-haired boy was thrown out due to inertia!
The magic slash passed in front of his eyes, but only cut off a few strands of his hair!
[Congratulations on achieving a perfect dodge! 】
[Within ten seconds, your agility will increase by 20%! 】
Perfect dodge the third stack!
The black-haired boy who was falling straight to the ground suddenly opened his eyes. Even in a state of weightlessness, there was no expression of collapse on his face. Instead, he looked at the man who was watching the battle from behind with incredible accuracy, like a cat that suddenly locked onto the movement of its prey.
For some reason, after meeting those green eyes, the man suddenly had a bad premonition in his mind, and his heart began to beat uncontrollably.
Soon, he vaguely realized the reason for the chill in his spine.
In such a battle environment where the enemy is so powerful that there is no room for distraction, the black-haired boy was able to divert his attention and accurately capture his position at the moment of falling. This only means one thing -
He still has some energy left.
——And now, he is going to fight back.
The fishing rod appeared seamlessly in his hand again and hooked one of the snake heads at the last moment before he fell to the ground, abruptly slowing down his fall.
Then, the black-haired boy adjusted his posture in the air in an instant without any start-up time, calculated the angle and landed on the huge middle and rear body of the demon snake.
At this time, the man in black robe noticed that his landing point happened to be the snake's body.
The man's breathing suddenly stopped.
Even a bystander couldn't take care of every detail, so how did the black-haired boy do it? ?
Won't his brain power be exhausted? !
Each movement that seemed to be simply for dodging seemed to have another purpose, connecting backwards step by step.
So what he is doing now is...
"Demon snake! Throw him away!"
——It’s too late.
After three perfect dodges, his agility exceeded 100, which directly increased the black-haired boy's speed to the highest level ever!
Even though the snake's reaction speed was extremely fast, its overly large body restricted its movements to a certain extent. When it wanted to attack, the black-haired boy had already reached the most vulnerable part of its body!
Then it was——
“Shh!!”
With the weight and acceleration of the whole body, the dagger pierced into the scales of the demon snake like a needle!
[You attacked the [Demon Snake]'s weakness!] 】
[You delivered a [Critical Hit]!] ! 】
【HP-170】
Even if the attack hit the vital point and achieved a critical hit, this drop in health was basically insignificant to the demon snake.
However, Su Xingyuan had no intention of using only a dagger to deal with it.
It can only reduce more than 100 HP at a time, and this effect can only be achieved by hitting a critical hit. This means that in an extended battle, he not only has to dodge the attacks of the magic snake every time to stack his speed, but also has to hit critical hits as much as possible.
The tolerance rate is too low.
He initially positioned himself as an assassin, so of course he should play like an assassin, find the right opportunity, and directly launch a whole set of bursts, throwing all his abilities and trump cards at the only enemy.
Since the defense cannot be broken from the outside, why not try from the inside?
The blue flame silently attached to the dagger, and then, as the second dagger penetrated deeper into the snake's body, it directly penetrated into the body of the demon snake!
The same color of fire began to rise in the black-haired boy's left eye, turning into a completely different blue from his right eye.
He whispered:
“Heating up.”
The next moment, the blue flames that had penetrated into the demon snake's body suddenly burst out with scorching brightness, even penetrating the skin, allowing the naked eye to see that there was a force rampaging within the demon snake's huge body!
Su Xingyuan's intelligence value also began to drop sharply in an instant, and almost reached the bottom immediately.
However, the one who suffered the most was undoubtedly the demon snake that was burned from the inside out by [Crossing Fire]!
[You hit the [Demon Snake]'s weak spot! 】
[You delivered a [Critical Hit]!] ! 】
【HP-1000】
【HP-600】
【HP-300】
Almost instantly, the blood bar above the demon snake's head jumped down three times in a row, and because of the residual heat in its body, it was still continuing to drop!
[HP: 2730/5000]
A hissing sound of extreme pain came from the mouth of the demon snake.
In addition to the decrease in blood volume, it was also accompanied by the excruciating pain of being burned by flames, which completely affected its judgment and attack capabilities at this time.
The man in black robe took a few steps forward, and his face, which had been normal a few seconds ago, now turned deathly pale.
The outcome of the battle tonight exceeded his expectations one after another.
What kind of fire is that that can penetrate into flesh and blood like a poisonous insect?
And if the temperature is really so high, enough to severely injure the demon snake, why can it sneak into the flesh and blood silently instead of burning everything at the beginning?
His eyes involuntarily fell on the black-haired boy.
According to the information he had obtained, how many days had passed since the sudden arrival of this savior... How did he grow up? !
Such a growth rate is simply impossible!
The man in black robe tried to calm down and began to analyze the current situation.
Those blue flames should have consumed a lot of the black-haired hunter's magic power. The stronger the object, the more magic power it consumes. At this moment, the opponent obviously did not have that much magic power to keep the flames at a super high temperature.
That's why the flames only appeared for a moment.
His magic power has been exhausted!
Otherwise, the black-haired boy would not have missed such a good opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the enemy.
The rest of the battle would be very simple. A melee hunter without magic power was no different from a tiger with its teeth ground and claws clipped.
As long as the demon snake recovers...
[Activate skill: Flesh and Blood Sage]
[99% of physical strength has been converted into intelligence]
[Trigger Title: Desperate Speculator]
[——When your health is 1% remaining and your attack hits the enemy's weak point, your attack power will increase by 200%! 】
The blue flame with a terrifying aura appeared around him again!
"…Relax."
The man's expression was completely frozen on his face.
"boom!!"
This time the fire was more terrifying and more grand than the last time!
【HP-1700】
【HP-900】
The demon snake kept rolling on the ground, trying to ease its pain, but it was of no use.
The black-robed man's eyelids were twitching and his back was soaked with cold sweat. He was the creator of the magic snake, so he could naturally feel that at this moment, the magic snake had reached the end of its life!
The situation was completely reversed!
He clenched his back teeth and stared at his work and assets.
This man must be killed... there will be endless trouble... he must be killed! !
Even if the price is my own life!
He put two fingers together to make a knife and cut his aorta without hesitation. Blood gushed out immediately, and under the guidance of the spell he quickly recited, four identical magic circles formed around him!
At the same time, in the center of the two heads of the demon snake, a dark purple crystal appeared, which was continuously grabbing something from the man in black robe.
[HP: 79/5000]
[HP: 460/5000]
…
[HP: 1000/5000]
The demon snake's health immediately returned to one-fifth.
The man in black robe also turned into a dried corpse, fell to the ground, and was blown away by the wind.
Su Xingyuan: “?”
The health points he had worked so hard to gain were suddenly increased again, which was only one aspect that made him unhappy. The most important thing was——
Why! Steal his head! !
He originally only thought about preventing his own team from stealing heads, but now he found out that he was wrong, even the enemy team would steal his heads :)
Just when the player, who had always been strong-willed, was about to press the load button, he noticed something unusual happening in his backpack.
Su Xingyuan pressed the pause button, glanced at the backpack, and then paused slightly.
...It's that egg.
He drew the pet egg in a lottery, found it unpalatable, and threw it back into his backpack. He never cared about it again.
The black-haired boy blinked, thought of something, and took the pet egg out of his backpack.
Almost the moment it appeared in his hand, the strong smell of blood and demonic energy in the air made it completely excited.
The next moment, it began to act like a whirlpool in the deep sea, non-stop and madly sucking up the magic power that originally belonged to the monsters!
Almost instantly, all the magic factors scattered around were sucked up by it. At this time, it set its sights on the magic snake that was in a seriously injured state and whose body had not yet fully recovered.
As if sensing something, the dark purple crystals in the two heads of the demon snake began to dim at the same time. It wanted to hide again, but it was too late.
The vortex expanded instantly, and the power stored in the crystal that provided it with magic and vitality was forcibly drawn out by the egg in Su Xingyuan's hand!
The Demon Snake's HP, which had already recovered, immediately began to drop.
The situation reversed again.
But this time, the players had an absolute advantage.
*
At this moment, at the Hunter Association headquarters.
Quick and heavy footsteps were heard, and Fang Mujian didn't even have time to knock on the door. He pushed it open and broke into Ning Baiquan's office.
"Something happened."
Fang Mujian got straight to the point.
Ning Baiquan raised his head and saw Fang Mujian's unusually hurried look, his expression suddenly became serious.
Fang Mujian is very cautious in doing things, so when he received a call from Su Xingyuan, even though he knew that the other party was very strong, he still couldn't help but check it out.
——Before making this call, Su Xingyuan had just been to a D-level portal. Coincidentally, hunter Jiang Yu, who entered the portal with Su Xingyuan, had just reported to the association that one of their teammates had been demonized in the portal and rushed straight towards Su Xingyuan!
Fang Mujian said quickly: "I suspect that the Xingyuan Hunter learned the name of Hope Cemetery from this battle. It is very likely related to monsters!"
He took a deep breath and said his guess: "Hope Cemetery... is the resting place of those buried hunters."
"Since living hunters can transform into monsters, what about the dead ones?"
He looked at Ning Baiquan with a stern expression. Obviously, the other party had thought of this as well.
Ning Baiquan immediately started to check the location of Su Xingyuan.
The computer showed that the last place the black-haired boy was was the Disaster Day Martyrs Memorial Cemetery in City C.
"Deputy Commander Ning!"
At this moment, another staff member walked into the office and said in a panic: "City C received a report from the masses that a huge flow of magic power appeared at the Martyrs Memorial Cemetery!"
"The magic power concentration is close to S-level, and it has formed a wind wall. The hunters in City C have no way of seeing what is going on inside, and they have no way of entering the cemetery!"
Ning Baiquan: "The magic monitoring device has no response?"
The staff shook their heads: "There was no response, otherwise we wouldn't have discovered it so late!"
Ning Baiquan's heart sank suddenly.
Others may not know this, but Ning Baiquan has received the report on City C sent by Fang Mujian.
"...Sure enough, it is a monster that mutated from a hunter. Only in this way can it avoid the association's monitoring."
He immediately stood up and made a decision: "Gather all the A-level and S-level hunters in City A who can fight now, and go to City C for support!"
"And... notify the Savior Protection Association."
That group of people wandered around various countries, searching for their savior for several years. Very few people knew their strength, but An Qian was a native of the country, and Ning Baiquan sat in this position, so naturally he had a certain understanding of the other party's strength.
That guy An Qian is guaranteed to be an S-level at least.
Moreover, he is an S-class hunter with extremely strong combat power and specializes in strong attacks.
Suddenly, the phone rang again. It was the one the staff member was holding.
After answering the call, the panic on the staff's face slowly turned into astonishment.
"Deputy Director Ning... the person in charge of the C City branch said that we don't need to send anyone over for support."
"The matter has been...completely resolved."
