Online Games: From Professional Gold Farmer to Night King

"38000 HP! 240 attack power! Plus 50 defense! Goodness... with these stats, I doubt even the thirty-odd members of the Black Mountain Clan could kill it?"

Although Wang Xing had long guessed that the BOSS would be powerful, he never expected it to be this powerful!

However, upon further reflection, Wang Xing seemed to understand what the Black Mountain family's strategy was.

It's nothing more than relying on those few tank warriors with high physical attributes to block the wolf king's attacks with the advantage of their shields, while the priests heal and the ranged classes attack from a distance.

If several shield warriors coordinate well, with each shield warrior taking turns blocking damage, and then several priests focusing on healing, they can indeed slowly whittle down the wolf king to death.

Presumably, previous players also killed the Wolf King in the same way, and more than once, which is why the Black Mountain Clan was so confident in bringing more than thirty players to kill the BOSS.

However, they had a front line to draw the wolf king's attack, but Wang Xing didn't!

With the wolf king's attack power, a single, casual attack could kill him instantly.

"It takes almost an hour to run here from the starting village. I have to kill it in the remaining few tens of minutes, otherwise it might be taken by another player's team."

"What should I do..."

"Bloodlust" is indeed very powerful, but its duration is too short. Even without a cooldown, Wang Xing can only reduce the Wolf King's health by less than 20,000 at most after using it, and the final result is still to kill him instantly.

Therefore, killing the wolf king cannot rely on burst skills, but requires sustained damage output!

In an instant, the strategies he used to employ when fighting bosses in PC games flashed into his mind.

"Positioning!"

Just like when he killed the Gale Wolf, all he had to do was find a spot out of the Wolf King's reach, hide there, and then control the Night Raven to attack.

Although the Wolf King has a high burst damage, it is, after all, a land monster and cannot attack the Night Raven with normal attacks; at most, it can only use skill attacks.

The Night Raven's thousands of health points are enough to withstand several skills, and the rest is just slowly whittling down the Wolf King with Shadow Bolt.

With that in mind, Wang Xing began searching for tall trees.

After scanning the area, they finally found a large tree, about ten meters tall, about a hundred meters to the east of the wolf king.

The tree trunk was more than half a meter thick, and the fork at the top was about 6-7 meters high. There were also several branches as thick as an arm at the bottom, and Wang Xing could easily climb to the fork in the branches.

Once the location was confirmed, Wang Xing began to slowly move eastward toward the Wolf King. When the distance was about right, Wang Xing immediately ordered Night Raven to launch an attack.

Just as the night crows attacked, Wang Xing quickly ran towards the tree and climbed to the top in less than five seconds using both hands.

When I turned around again, a sharp silver wind blade shot straight at me.

Wang Xing dodged the wind blade attack by leaning back, and then immediately crouched down, using leaves and branches to block his position.

The wolf king ran to the tree, leaped up, and with a flash of white light in its claws, fiercely clawed at the tree trunk.

stab~

Wang Xing could feel the tree swaying. Looking down, he saw several scratch marks, four or five centimeters deep, less than a meter below where he was crouching.

It's obvious that the wolf king's attack range is at most 5 meters, which is still quite a distance from his position.

Seeing that the wolf king was out of reach, Wang Xing was completely relieved and commanded the night crows to launch wave after wave of attacks on the wolf king.

At first, the wolf king would allow the night crows to attack without fighting back, because of Wang Xing.

But as time went on, the wolf king seemed to realize that the night crows were too much of a threat and turned to using his skills to attack them.

A sharp wind blade was lashed out, sending a night raven flying two or three meters away. It swayed and staggered before regaining its balance and preventing itself from being knocked down.

-558

A huge damage value floated up from the Night Raven, and its health dropped to less than half.

Just one more time and this night crow will surely die.

Seeing the attack damage reaching 600, Wang Xing couldn't help but swallow hard.

If that wind blade were to hit him, it would be enough to kill him twice and still have some left over.

With the powerful attack of this wind blade, even if a shield warrior blocks it, he will still lose nearly 200 health points, which shows how high its damage is.

At this moment, Night Raven's Shadow Bolt cooldown ended, and seven Shadow Bolts landed on the Wolf King again, taking away nearly 800 health points.

At this point, the wolf king's health had dropped by about 10%. At this rate, it would take about three or four minutes to kill the wolf king.

However, there is a prerequisite: that no unexpected situations occur.

However, Wang Xing seemed to be very lucky. The teams all knew that the Black Mountain family had booked the venue, so they did not approach that location.

It would take them at least half an hour to discover that the Black Mountain family had been killed and to get there, which would be enough time for Wang Xing to kill the Wolf King.

As for the casual players around, if they get too close, they'll just be cannon fodder for the Wolf King. Wang Xing is happy to see people come over to act as cannon fodder and draw damage.

Time passed second by second, and the wolf king was still helpless against Wang Xing, only able to tear at the tree in despair.

However, the tree was too thick. Although the wolf king had bitten off more than 20 centimeters of it, there were still 30 to 40 centimeters of it connected.

By the time the wolf king bites down the tree, it will probably have already been killed by the night crows.

As for attacking the Night Ravens, under Wang Xing's command, the seven Night Ravens also learned to share the damage, with each Night Raven taking a hit and then taking turns.

The cooldown time for Wind Blade is 30 seconds, and by the time you've used it 7 times, three and a half minutes have already passed.

Even if Wang Xing manages to kill a few night crows in the end, he can summon them again to continue the siege of the wolf king.

And so, under Wang Xing's almost cheating positioning tactics, the Wolf King met a humiliating and tragic end with the Shadow Bullet.

[You have defeated the Bloodthirsty Wolf King (BOSS), gaining 10000 experience points.]

[Congratulations on reaching level 7! All attributes +1, free attribute points +5, skill points +1.]

...

[Ding~ Congratulations on defeating a BOSS-level monster. The system will issue a public notification. Would you like to hide your name?]

Wang Xing was taken aback, then immediately chose no.

"As a professional gold digger, what I care about is fame! Why would I hide it!"

The next second, a line of golden text floated through the air.

[System Notification: Congratulations to player Nightfall for defeating the Bloodthirsty Wolf King BOSS. Reward: 1 Gold Coin, +10 Reputation.]

(PS: "System Notification" is a notification displayed in gold font on the local public channel, while "System Broadcast" is a system voice announcement.)

...

Within the Wild Boar area, Black Mountain Archer is leading dozens of players from his clan towards the Wild Wolf Jungle.

They traveled while killing monsters along the way.

Just as the group easily killed an elite tusked boar, collected their spoils, and continued on their way, a line of golden characters appeared before them.

[System notification...]

The moment the Black Mountain Archer saw the system notification, he froze on the spot, unable to recover for a long time.

"He...he really did it! He killed a level 10 boss all by himself!"

"I've never heard of the name 'Nightmare' before. Who exactly is he? Is he some legendary player who's just changed his alias and started over?"

"Or is it... just a lucky solo player?"
