Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 79: The Snowman King
[Ice Snowman King: The king of the snowmen, he often uses his warm heart to protect the young snowmen from the wind]

【Level: 10】

In addition to the higher level, the blood bar of the Snowman King, who is the BOSS, also has a golden dragon entwined. His body size has reached 4 meters, and the warning range has increased from 30 meters to 40 meters.

"Xiao Nuo, send me the boss's information."

Challenging the BOSS without a strategy is just a waste of time. Wang Yue watched the players from a distance and asked the game system to send the data of the Snowman King.

"The health is 2. There is only one skill in the first stage. When the health is below 30%, it enters the second stage. It will sprint and gain another skill."

While Wang Yue was reading the monster's information, the first group of players who came into contact with the Snowman King had died on the spot.

"What a tough monster! My green weapon can only do 2 points of damage."

"The flaming arrow was resisted, and even if it hit, it only dealt 5 points of damage."

"Don't use frost arrows, the boss is immune to frost skills."

"It hurts so much, I lost 20 HP even after blocking. Heal, heal! Ah, I'm dead!"

Players shared the news in nearby channels. More than a dozen players almost lined up to die. The warrior ignored the healer and rushed directly to the feet of the Snowman King, and then was kicked away by the opponent.

Even after getting into position, the Snowman King will periodically throw snowballs around. Anyone hit will die from receiving 100 points of damage, so they must always dodge the flying snowballs.

Fengye had told her team not to get close early on, and she was also observing the BOSS's skills, trying to retain her strength as much as possible.

"Are we not moving? The people in my company want to see the boss battle as soon as possible."

Gin has already received the urging message from the company. He cannot challenge it alone, so he can only ask the captain to act quickly.

"Wait a moment. I'm still trying to see if I have any skills in dodging snowballs."

Fengye also knew that she didn't have much time left, so she comforted her teammates while recalling the games she had played.

As the first BOSS in the Novice Village, the skills of the Snowman King are not complicated, but the problem is that the snowballs are random and you will be hit if you are not careful.

"There are no clues under my feet, no correlation with the monster's movements, and no regular pattern in the shape of where the snowballs land."

There is no way to dodge snowballs from a distance, so the only way is to get close and try while hitting them.

Maple Leaf asked Persia to put on a shield and act as the team's tank, and then asked Gin to keep an eye on Persia's health.

Persia was at the front of the team, followed by Assassin Fat Cat and Knight Gin, and Hunter Maple Leaf and Poet Pickle were at the end of the team.

The team approached the BOSS at a normal speed and successfully took over the BOSS after the previous team was eliminated.

After Persia successfully attracted the attack of the Snowman King, he circled around the BOSS and made the king's back face the team members.

The five people maintained their formation, with all their output coming from behind the monster, so they didn't have to worry about being attacked from the front by the monster.

"Fat Cat, keep your output steady. Our warriors are holding shields, and their damage is not as high as yours. It will be easy for the BOSS to find you."

After hearing Maple Leaf's warning, Fat Cat immediately stopped using [Backstab] and only used normal attacks to scrape continuously.

Persia relied on his shield and only took 12 points of damage after each successful block.

This amount of damage was not a big pressure for the healer. Gin used [Holy Light Healing] to keep Persia's health at 80%, and at the same time used his hammer to massage the Snowman King's back.

After 10 seconds, the King points his arm, which is covered with broken ice, to the sky. Ice energy rushes out of his arm, turns into a snowball, and falls in mid-air, smashing heavily at the players.

[Warning: Snowman Barrage]

After receiving the early warning, Maple Leaf saw countless red circles appearing on the battlefield. These red circles were deep and shallow, but they covered all the areas around the Snowman King.

"Look at the red circle under your feet. The dark area is a danger warning. Hide in the light area."

Maple Leaf's common sense of the game came in handy immediately. When she chose the light red circle to avoid it, not long after, the light red under her feet turned into dark red, and she had to change to another light red circle.

Because he was constantly dodging snowballs, Maple Leaf could only occasionally sneak a couple of arrows, causing a total of only 10 points of damage within the 10-second skill duration.

"The skills are gone, you all did a good job, and then just keep going like this."

Except for Persia, the other three were newcomers to the game. Not only did they quickly understand Maple Leaf's meaning, they also successfully avoided all the snowballs with their operations.

However, while dodging, Gin did not have the spare time to heal Persia, which resulted in Persia being forced to drink the [Basic Healing Potion], so he was not slapped to death by the Snowman King.

"Brother Jinjiu, remember to heal me twice in the next wave of skills. It doesn't matter if I don't deal damage. I can only drink one bottle of healing potion in 2 minutes."

"Okay, I'll make time to keep your blood safe."

Gin subconsciously adjusted his glasses, and continued to swing the hammer to attack after raising Persian's health bar.

"Captain, am I doing well?"

As a poet, Paocai not only has to maintain the [Thorns] status on Persia, but he also has to find time to cast the long-range spell [Wind Blade].

He contributed a lot of damage while dodging snowballs, which can be said to be a gifted person.

"Not bad. If you try harder, you can do half of my damage."

As the Maple Leaf team held out against the Snowman King for half a minute, other players who were watching also learned their tactics and joined the battle.

As more people gathered, there was less space to hide. Players became familiar with the dodging skills through constant deaths, and the BOSS's health soon dropped to 50%.

Now the Maple Leaf team leads the game in output. If they are still ranked first when the BOSS falls, they will have the right to distribute the spoils.

"I don't have enough mana, warrior, you are on your own."

Three minutes into the battle, Gin's mana finally ran out, and Pickle hadn't yet reached a level where he could learn the skill of restoring health, so Persia could only rely on healing potions to hold on for a few more seconds.

His studio members all chose to output in order to be more efficient in killing monsters, and other teams were unwilling to help in the fight for the spoils.

"Fat Cat, after Persia dies, your hatred should be at its highest. See if your stealth can avoid hatred."

Fat Cat responded by waving her dagger. She observed Persian's health and used [Stealth] the moment he fell down in tears.

The BOSS, which had lost its primary target, set its sights on Maple Leaf in the distance. Maple Leaf could only turn back, run a few steps, and struggle for a few seconds. In the end, she was caught up by the four-meter-tall monster in three steps and was punched into a tombstone.

After losing his fixed target, the Snowman King began to eliminate players one by one according to the hatred list.

Because the battle lasted too long, the ranged damage was much higher than that of the warriors holding shields. All you could see were the clumsy warriors following behind the BOSS, and every place they stepped on was the grave of their teammates.
