Run! Hurry and run! Xiao Yu panted heavily from all the running, and when he finally could not take it anymore, he leaned on his staff and took deep breaths.
“Hey, why aren’t you running anymore? I have to warn you, those Adventurers are right behind you.”
A hoarse voice could be heard from the top of his head, so Xiao Yu lifted his head to take a look. It was that huge bird named Ace Pilot.
Currently, that huge bird was casually standing on a tree branch, looking down on the Goblin below.
“F*ck, what are you so proud of? What’s so great about being able to fly.”
Xiao Yu complained in his heart. The battle power of bird-type monsters was much lower than Wild Beasts like jackals, tigers, or leopards. The only outstanding thing about them was their flying ability, so it was impossible to train them to high levels. However, if one just wanted to show off their presence in the game, then this was quite a good choice as at least it was low risk.
“How many people do they have?”
“Originally, there were five, but now only three are left, though there may be people in stealth mode.”
“There won’t be anyone in stealth mode,” Xiao Yu said to himself. “One’s speed would decrease after using Stealth Move, so if it was long-distance chasing, then they would definitely not use Stealth Move. Then, if there are only three people, I can take care of them.”
Xiao Yu took a look at Fearless. Although he had advanced to Rare Elite, truthfully speaking, his battle power was still extremely limited.
“Fearless, go and hide. Later, find a chance to attack their healer.”
“Understood, Boss.” After finishing, Fearless directly headed into the forest.
Xiao Yu summoned Fire Elements and waited. After a few minutes, the forest suddenly split apart and three anxious Adventurers in a hurry appeared within Xiao Yu’s line of sight.
“Huh, what’s this? Why isn’t the Boss running anymore?”
“This means it’s you who are chasing me.” As Xiao Yu spoke, he raised his staff. “Go and die!”
Flame Missile Storm!
“Not good, the Boss is about to release an ultimate skille!” Leftover Fighter reacted the fastest and smashed his Hammer of Judgment towards Xiao Yu. The damage dealt by the Hammer of Judgment was low, but there was a stun effect, so from his point of view, he thought that he would definitely stun Xiao Yu and also interrupt the channeling of magic. However, when the Hammer of Judgment landed on the Goblin, only a -18 popped up from Xiao Yu. Besides that, there was no effect at all.
“Huh, why was he not stunned?”
“Your Paladin skills are too trash. Looks like it’s my turn.”
Charge! Supreme Sword directly dashed towards Xiao Yu and punched the Goblin’s face.
“Huh, why is there no effect?”
“Haha, idiots, I’m already a Boss. Did you think your pitiful skills could stun me!?” As Xiao Yu spoke, he raised his staff. With such a close distance, Supreme Sword had nowhere to dodge at all as the Flame Missiles bombarded him like a machine gun. Supreme Sword tried using his shield to block a few shots, but after the shield broke from the explosions, the numerous fireballs instantly knocked him off his feet.
-9, -10, -9, -8, -7, -11—numerous red numbers popped up from his head continuously. Before Leftover Fighter could heal Supreme Sword, he had already died from the bombardment. After dropping a few pieces of equipment, he was dead.
Hell Baron’s Father said, “F*ck, this Boss is so strong. What the hell? How do we fight it?”
“You’re still thinking of fighting? Hurry and run!” After speaking, Leftover Fighter instantly turned and escaped, instantly disappearing.
Before Xiao Yu had finished channeling the second Flame Missile Storm, the remaining two players had already run away and could no longer be seen. “F*ck, they’re quite fast in running away.” Although the damage dealt by the Flame Missile Storm was quite high, the channeling time was too long. Since they had escaped, just let them be. When Xiao Yu turned and was about to leave, he suddenly realized that there seemed to be two pieces of equipment on the ground. One of them was normal trash, the other shone with green light and could actually be used.
“Manster’s Fur? Isn’t this Derek’s? Looks like he died.”
Xiao Yu did not hold back and directly equipped the bear skin. His HP increased greatly and he shouted a few times towards where Fearless had headed towards, but there was no reply.
Was it possible that he had escaped? Xiao Yu did not plan to stay too long, so he continued heading forward.
However, just when Hell Baron’s Father and Leftover Fighter were still fearful after running far away, a rustling sound could suddenly be heard, like something was quickly moving through the woods, disturbing birds and making them fly.
“Not good, something is coming!” The two of them were quite nervous as they were afraid that it was some monster charging towards them. However, no one expected a few female Hunters riding Moonsaber Leopards to rush out of the forest.
The Moonsaber Leopard in the front directly dashed towards the two of them before abruptly stopping just one meter before them. Hell Baron’s Father could even feel the hot air breathed out from the Moonsaber Leopard’s mouth, so he subconsciously lifted his staff.
“Don’t make a move, it’s Night Elves!” Leftover Fighter hurriedly stopped Hell Baron’s Father and at the same time did a Knight’s salute towards the female Hunters in front of him. “Good evening, respectable ladies. May I know what you have come here for? Is there anything we can help you with?”
The female Hunter in the front looked at Leftover Fighter with a cold expression.
“We are hunters from the Night Elf Council. We are here to hunt down those villains that have killed Archdruid Manster•Moonwalker. What are you doing here? Hurry and answer… humans!”
“Ah, we are here to chase that bast*rd too, but we were not his opponents and our comrade was killed. He is right in front, just follow this path and continue heading straight.” Leftover Fighter pointed at the direction they had escaped from.
The female Hunters exchanged looks and the one leading them nodded. “Then thank you, Paladin. Take your comrade and leave quickly. Night Whisper Forest is not safe at night.”
After finishing, she fiercely kicked the mount she was riding and the four female Knights suddenly increased their speed, instantly disappearing within the dense forest.
“OMG, those female Night Elves were so pretty. Were those leopards the Night Elves’ race mount? They’re much more good-looking than the army horses of humans. If I had known this earlier, then I would have chosen the Night Elf race when I was choosing a race,” said Hell Baron’s Father enviously.
Leftover Fighter said, “Don’t worry, after raising our Reputation with the Night Elves, we can buy them too. Isn’t the chance in front of us now a good opportunity? Why don’t we catch up to them and help them defeat that Goblin Boss. We could raise our Reputation and might even be able to get some equipment since NPCs do not pick up equipment.”
“You’re right!” Hell Baron’s Father replied. The two of them hurriedly turned and followed those Night Elves, running towards the direction they had escaped from.
Not long after, Xiao Yu also knew that female Hunters were nearing him. Of course, it was Ace Pilot that had told him this too. Although he immediately increased his speed after hearing that, it was a pity that no matter how fast those two small and short Goblin legs tried to run, it was impossible to win against Moonsaber Leopards with four legs. After running for a short while, a black figure flashed in front of Xiao Yu’s eyes and a female Hunter instantly appeared in front of him and blocked his path.
Immediately after, another three female Hunters charged out from the forest behind and surrounded Xiao Yu. They were all holding moon-shaped glaives. The Moonsaber Leopards were also glaring with hostility. The mounts in this game were not only mounts, but could also battle when necessary.
“F*ck, looks like a battle cannot be avoided!” Since Xiao Yu could not escape, he could only raise the Staff of Storm in his hand. However, it was not like he had no chance of winning—he was still a small Boss. The four female hunters in front of him looked fierce, but three of them were level 17 normal units and one was a level 19 Elite, so it was not impossible for him to win.
Kaya•Shadow Hunter (Night Hunters’ Leader) asked, “Are you the Goblin that killed Manster•Moonwalker? Hmph, who would have thought that an Archdruid would actually die by such a despicable monster’s hand. Prepare to die. Today, I will annihilate you in the name of the Moon Goddess Elune.”
“Punish me in the name of the Moon? F*ck, do you think you’re Sailor Moon?”
Xiao Yu could not help but remark secretly before revealing a hideous smile. “Hmph, catching me will not be that simple.” Xiao Yu suddenly raised the staff in his hand. Let’s battle!
