The buff is permanent, and you start the game with a fountain of water.

Huan Cheng immediately adjusted his strategy, focusing his main efforts on the BOSS.

Activating the Breath of Darkness and pushing his speed to the limit, he began to run recklessly through the dark forest.

The Dark Forest is vast, and with it comes a wide variety of monsters and bosses.

Not long after, Huan Cheng encountered his second bronze boss – the Rotten Skin Wolf King.

[Rotten Skin Wolf King]: Level 18, Grade: Bronze, Health: 100000. Originally an ordinary Rotten Skin Gray Wolf, it accidentally ate the Ghost Flower and unexpectedly evolved into the king of Rotten Skin Gray Wolves. As the wolf king, it has the privilege of summoning its pack to aid in battle.

The rotten wolf king was two sizes larger than an ordinary gray wolf. Its fur was rotting and falling off more severely, with the flesh turned inside out and emitting a foul stench. Its eye sockets were cloudy and red, and its fangs were covered with putrid liquid, making it look rather disgusting.

Huan Cheng didn't hold back and immediately used the Abyss Judgment.

-10000

The higher the monster's HP, the more terrifying the forced percentage attribute reduction effect of Abyss Judgment becomes, and Huan Cheng deals five-figure damage to the target for the first time.

Severely injured, the Wolf King disregarded the intimidating effect of the Abyss Breath and let out a long howl to the sky.

Visibly, a shockwave spread rapidly outwards from the wolf king.

-2106

Damage numbers appeared above his head, and he received a system notification that, due to the Abyss Body effect, he was immune to the 30% slow effect from the Wolf King's [Howl of Resentment].

Huan Cheng remained unmoved, drew his knife, and lunged forward, slashing at the exposed scarlet flesh of the Rotten-skinned Wolf King.

-1567

A red damage number flashed above the Wolf King's head.

Equipped with the Ancient Vine Armor, Huan Cheng's physical attack is 1319, and with the bonus of critical strike, the damage can reach 1978.

The wolf king was damaged by 1,500, which means that the wolf king's physical defense is around 400.

It is slightly inferior to the Corrupted Treant, which is also a bronze-level boss.

This is normal; the Corrosive Treant's advantages are its ability to quickly regenerate health and its relatively strong defense.

Its weaknesses are also obvious: slow movement speed and lack of resistance to fire attacks.

In a normal team strategy, fire mages should be the core damage dealers, and the game should be slowly whittled down.

Huan Cheng then used his overwhelming strength to forcefully push him down face to face.

The Rotten Wolf King doesn't have the weakness of slow movement speed, but relatively speaking, its defense is slightly inferior to that of the Treant.

"Woohoo!"

When Huan Cheng got close, the wolf king leaped up, using its two hind legs for support, and its front paws swung rapidly, enveloping him in a cold light.

-874, -944, -884, -874, -983

Five attacks in one go took away more than four thousand lives, startling Huan Cheng.

His health has just broken 10,000, and the Rotten Wolf King took away nearly half of his health in one move, which is truly terrifying.

Apart from him, it's probably hard to find another player in the current player base who can withstand this skill.

Just as Huan Cheng was about to use the Wind Slash to withdraw from the battle, the Wolf King took the lead and jumped away from the battle, staring at him menacingly from a few meters away.

The two faced off for a few seconds, then Huan Cheng smiled.

I'm waiting for a reply, what are you waiting for?

With a smug smile, he activated the Wind Slash, transforming into a black shadow and beginning his counterattack.

He slashed three times, taking more than three thousand lives.

"Woohoo!"

The wolf king, in pain, roared to the sky again, but this time it was not a howl of resentment, but a call to the pack.

The next moment, eight corrosive gray wolves surged in from all directions.

"Breath of Darkness!"

Activating the Breath of Darkness to slow the wolf pack's advance, Huan Cheng was surprised to find that, contrary to his usual behavior, the wolf king stood still as the pack surrounded him, looking at the gray wolves' attack with disdain.

"Hmm? It disdains to gang up on me with ordinary gray wolves?"

An idea flashed into Huan Cheng's mind, and he immediately abandoned the wolf king and focused all his efforts on killing the ordinary gray wolves.

Ordinary rotten gray wolves posed no threat to him, and soon all eight rotten gray wolves met their end under Huan Cheng's blade.

"Ding! You have killed 8 level 15 Rotten Skin Gray Wolves, gaining 4762 experience points."

"You also get experience points from the summoned creatures that are killed by the boss?"

Upon hearing the system notification, Huan Cheng was overjoyed, and even the rotten and ferocious appearance of the Rotten Wolf King seemed to become handsome.

Bosses certainly offer high experience points, but they're hard to find!

It took Huan Cheng almost an hour to find the Rotten-skinned Wolf King.

If the Rotten Wolf King can keep summoning ordinary gray wolves, then its efficiency doesn't seem to be lower than killing a boss.

Thinking of this, Huan Cheng stopped attacking and just quietly watched the wolf king.

Eight ordinary gray wolves were killed, and the wolf king roared and charged at Huan Cheng again.

Same moves, same routine.

After enduring a full attack, less than two minutes later, the Wolf King roared to the sky again and began summoning ordinary gray wolves.

Just like last time, after summoning ordinary gray wolves, the wolf king strode arrogantly, looking down at the battlefield with disdainful eyes, without intervening in the battle.

"It actually works!"

Huan Cheng was overjoyed and excitedly charged towards the gray wolf.

Huan Cheng was unaware that he had inadvertently triggered a bug.

In the story, the wolf king is aloof and will not bully the weak.

However, under normal circumstances, there will be no one-on-one duel between a player and the Wolf King.

In team battles, even if the Wolf King summons gray wolves, he will fight alongside them to wipe out the team's backline.

But now, with the emergence of a prodigy like Huan Cheng, summoning a pack of wolves has become a laughable skill.

"Ding! You have killed 8 level 15 Rotten Skin Gray Wolves, gaining 4762 experience points."

Not long after, the eight gray wolves died suddenly, and Huan Cheng looked at the wolf king with eager eyes.

"Aww!"

He did not disappoint him. After a brief battle, the Wolf King once again used his summoning skill, and almost as if the scene had been recreated, eight gray wolves rushed out from all directions.

Ignoring his exhaustion, Huan Cheng braved the wolf pack's attacks, reaping the experience with a bittersweet joy.

"Ding! You have defeated a level 15 opponent..."

"Ding! You have defeated a level 15 opponent..."

……

Every few minutes, a system notification will sound.

After fighting for four hours, Huan Cheng was completely numb, mechanically swinging his sword in a daze. Suddenly, things changed.

After launching a series of attacks, the wolf king did not summon the pack of wolves, but instead turned and ran.

Huan Cheng was stunned for a moment, his rigid mind unable to react for a while.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, the scene of the goblin priest escaping flashed through his mind.

"Out of mana again? With such poor stamina, how did you become king?!"

With his head spinning, Huan Cheng muttered a curse in his mind and used the Wind Riding Slash to catch up with the Wolf King from behind.

Under the shadow of darkness, the Wolf King's movement speed dropped by thirty percent, making it impossible for it to outrun Huan Cheng.

Without mana, the Wolf King can no longer use Wolf King Summon, nor can he use his other powerful attack skills.

He could only retaliate with the most basic biting.

This posed no threat to Huan Cheng. The Ripper's Blade transformed into a merciless butcher's knife, relentlessly slashing at the Wolf King.

A few minutes later, the wolf king, having lost its ability to resist, let out a howl and collapsed dead.

"Ding! You have defeated the level 18 Bronze BOSS Rotten Hide Wolf King. You have gained 95000 experience and 20 reputation points."

"call--"

The moment the system notification sounded, Huan Cheng collapsed to the ground.

The two-hour battle, though not life-threatening, involved real wolf fangs and claws.

If he hadn't known that Yunxi was experiencing 50% pain, which fueled Huan Cheng's competitive spirit, he definitely wouldn't have been able to persevere.
