[Congratulations on reaching level 29! Health +50, Mana +30, Strength +2, Constitution +1, Agility +1, Intelligence +2, Spirit +2, Skill Points +1.]

...

Wang Xing sat cross-legged on the boulder. The long and tedious monster-hunting left him feeling bored, so he closed his eyes to rest.

He was only brought back to his senses by a system notification.

"So... level 29 already?"

I checked the time; it was still morning. I had killed over a thousand snake-like monsters, and only an hour or two had passed.

This location does seem to be a monster spawn point, with a constant stream of poisonous snakes emerging from the fog and bushes.

To date, Wang Xing has killed over a thousand!

"At this refresh rate, I probably won't even need tonight. I'll reach level 30 before noon today! If I reach level 30 by noon, won't my ranking be in the top 100? Maybe even the top 10!"

Whether it was because Wang Xing was too smug or because the monsters had really been wiped out, this continuous respawning only lasted for less than five minutes before the number suddenly dropped to only three to five per minute.

"That's it? What happened to the endless stream of power? What happened to leveling up 30 levels by noon?!"

Wang Xing leaped off the boulder and landed steadily on the ground.

"I want to see what's inside this thick fog. A gathering of thousands of monsters isn't normal; something's definitely fishy!"

As they ventured deeper into the dense fog, the number of green and red snakes in the vicinity increased, although not as fast as before, but still considerable.

Just as Wang Xing was about to continue grinding monsters and leveling up at this location, a churning sound accompanied by a hissing noise came from ahead.

"Is there something?"

Take quiet steps and slowly walk deeper into the area.

After walking about a hundred meters, a large pit appeared in front of us.

When Wang Xing looked into the pit, the scene before him instantly made his scalp tingle and goosebumps rise all over his body.

Snake ball!

A giant snake-shaped ball!!!

Inside that large pit, which was about forty or fifty meters wide, a snake-shaped ball, about ten meters in size, was formed!

Judging by their numbers, there must be at least thirty or forty snakes, each as thick as a bowl!

One of the large black snakes was particularly eye-catching; while the other snakes were only as thick as a bowl, this one was as thick as a water bucket!

"Is this... mating? I've heard that snakes become highly focused on reproduction when mating, rather than paying attention to their surroundings. This might be a good opportunity to get closer and see what their attributes are. If they're strong enough to fight... hehe... then don't blame me!"

Wang Xing slowly approached, and when he reached the edge of the pit, he immediately checked the monster's attributes.

【Striped Python】(Elite)

Rating: 34

Health: 55000

Attack: 850

Defense: 400

Magic Defense: 300

Skills: Bite, Entangling Strike, Iron Tail

...

"Elite monsters? If there are thirty or forty elite monsters, the Night Raven's attacks should be able to kill them all in a short time. I just wonder what level that black one is..."

Wang Xing then checked the attributes of the large black snake.

[Black Scale Serpent King]: Commander-level BOSS

Rating: 35

Health: 3000000

Attack: 1100

Defense: 500

Magic Defense: 450

Skills: Death Strangulation, Bite, Lash, Venomous Breath, Male Serpent Guard

...

"hiss..."

"Three million HP! 1100 attack power! Although its defense isn't very high, its HP and attack are quite good. However... with that much HP, the Night Raven can still one-shot you, but its skills... are a bit troublesome..."

Wang Xing clearly remembered that when he killed the Minotaur King Uta, Night Raven was instantly killed by the BOSS's burst of skills.

With the players from the Overlord Blade Alliance acting as shields, Wang Xing could easily stand behind and fight the boss.

But now he's all alone. If Night Raven is killed, even if he's summoned again, he won't be able to use the Bloodlust Berserk skill.

Without this burst skill, it would be difficult for Wang Xing to safely kill the BOSS.

Especially the "Male Serpent Guardian" skill, which is clearly a summoning skill. If it summons a dozen or twenty elite monsters at once, Wang Xing won't be able to withstand the siege of so many elite monsters.

"The boss is easy to kill, but I'm worried about getting the Night Raven killed instantly! Plus, it has summoning abilities, which makes things even more difficult. Looks like I'll have to do what I always do: find a good spot to trap the monsters! If I can hold my position and prevent the elite monsters from attacking me, then killing the boss will be a piece of cake!"

After figuring it out, Wang Xing immediately began looking for suitable locations to block the shot.

However, the surrounding area was shrouded in thick fog, making it impossible to see distant objects. Left with no other choice, Wang Xing had to explore the terrain while searching.

However, after searching around, it seemed that there was no terrain that could block those six- or seven-meter-long elite snakes, including the giant rocks that had been used to trap monsters and level up.

After all, the boulder was only a little over two meters high, and these elite snakes, each five or six meters long, could easily climb up it.

As for trees, Wang Xing hadn't forgotten one thing: snakes can climb trees!

After walking around, Wang Xing eventually returned to the location of the large pit.

Searching around the large pit, sure enough, there was a cliff on the north side of the pit, which should be the other side of the valley wall if nothing unexpected happened.

The rocky cliffs above offer several hiding spots for Wang Xing.

Even if he couldn't hide, he could at least prevent the elite serpent from getting close to him for a while.

"Finally found it!"

Wang Xing put away his weapon and, relying on his high agility, easily climbed up the rock wall until he stopped at a protruding rock about four or five meters above the ground.

"This should be about right!"

"Night Raven, attack!"

"Gah~!"

At a command, 30 night crows immediately launched an attack on the snake ball below, and 30 shadow bullets hit the giant pythons one by one.

"Hiss hiss hiss~~!!"

The moment the attack was launched, the snake ball, several meters in size, split apart, and dozens of pythons as thick as bowls crawled up the pit, heading straight for Wang Xing's position.

The black-clad leader BOSS raised its head to look at Wang Xing, its cold vertical pupils revealing a chilling killing intent.
