Translator: 549690339
The two Red-tailed Beasts behind Jierna looked somewhat strange. They were covered in thick shells everywhere else on their bodies, looking like a giant beetle, and only their tails were covered in red fur. As they ran and swung their tails, it looked like a ball of burning flames.
Jierna was a level 15 elite BOSS, and the two Red-tailed Beasts behind her were level 10 elite BOSSes. Facing such combat power, even Song Jian felt somewhat tricky.
âBefore entering the maze, you never mentioned that you had such enemies!â Song Jian sighed, took a step forward, and stood in front of the goblin merchant Canaan.
âThis woman is a madwoman, she wants to move the Prayer Altar in the Kantelu Ruins to her own home, and she will chase and kill anyone she sees in the maze!â Canaan screamed loudly, looking at Jierna with fear and resentment in his eyes.
âThe Prayer Altar is mine, and you useless lot dare to compete with me!â Jierna raised her battle-axe with one hand and pointed at Canaan, shouting, âLittle green-skinned dwarf, 1 spared you last time, but 1 didnât expect you to be so small in stature yet so ambitious, so you really dare to compete with me for the Prayer Altar?â
âYou madwoman, you killed all my guards, the Prayer Altar is an artifact of the Kantulu Clan, just leave it there, canât you just go there once a month to exchange items? Why do you have to dismantle it and take it back? Are you not afraid of damaging it?â The goblin hid behind Song Jian and screamed loudly.
âIf I set my eyes on something, it belongs to me. Why should 1 share it with you trash? Die, Red-tailed Beasts, kill these two!â Jierna carried her battle-axe and walked step by step towards the two.
Song Jian took out a bottle of Weakness Potion from his package and threw it at the two Red-tailed Beasts. With a âbangâ sound, the potion bottle exploded, and the two Red-tailed Beasts were enveloped in a cloud of green dust, causing a thirty-point damage floating above their heads.
Broken Wing Dance!
Song Jian, holding the Guardianâs Sword, charged at the two Red-tailed Beasts.
âEh, little dwarf, you found a pretty good bodyguard this time. Dare to fight head-on with my two Red-tailed Beasts. Those bodyguards you had before, they were so scared they ran away when they saw the Red-tailed Beasts, hahaha!â Jierna seemed to think of something funny, pointed her battle-axe at Canaan, and laughed out loud.
âJierna, have you found a way to move the Prayer Altar yet?â Canaan suddenly asked.
Jierna was startled, a trace of embarrassment flashed in her eyes, and she shouted angrily: âEven if I havenât found a way to move it, I wonât allow you useless lot to use it! In case the altar is destroyed due to too much energy consumption, that would be my loss. As for the method to remove it, 1 will find it sooner or later!â
âJierna, you donât even understand the principle of the Prayer Altar, yet you want to move it. Youâre simply deluding yourself!â Canaan sneered.
âEh, little dwarf, you dare talk to me like that?â Jierna showed a surprised expression, glanced at Canaan, and then her gaze fell on Song Jian, who was fighting with the two Red-tailed Beasts.
âSo, you found a powerful bodyguard, no wonder you have become so bold, hmph!â Jiernaâs eyes flashed with a murderous intent, waved her battle-axe, and charged at Song Jian: âLet me shatter your courage once more!â
Song Jianâs third strike of the Broken Wing Dance sent both Red-tailed Beasts floating in the air.
Rapid Sword!
While the two Red-tailed Beasts were floating, Song Jian used his âRapid Swordâ skill, increasing his attack speed greatly, waving his sword quickly and cutting through the beasts.
The Red-tailed Beasts, which had already reduced their defense by 35%, were completely defenseless in their floating state. Even ordinary attacks could cause considerable damage, let alone Song Jianâs sword which also had Invisible Sword Qi attached.
System: You deal 45 points of physical damage to the Red-tailed Beast, combo point+1, damage increased by 110%
System: You deal 56 points of physical damage to the Red-tailed Beast, combo point+1, damage increased by 120%
The Broken Wing Dance made the Red-tailed Beasts float in the air, and then connected with other attacks, which caused combo points, increasing the damage. However, the Broken Wing Dance was only level one, and the third strikeâs floating effect could only last for a short second. Soon, the two Red-tailed Beasts would fall down.
Just as the Red-tailed Beasts were about to hit the ground, a silver light flashed on Song Jianâs left index finger, he slashed forward, causing both Red-tailed Beasts to let out painful cries, a damage number close to two hundred floated above their heads.
As the Red-tailed Beasts landed, Song Jianâs âRapid Swordâ state had not yet disappeared. Sword light flickered, continuously slashing at the Red-tailed Beasts, and for a time, the two level 10 elite BOSSes couldnât fight back.
âDie!â Just as Song Jian was constantly chopping away at the two Red-tailed Beasts, a yell accompanied by a surge of powerful force came rushing at him.
Seeing Jierna, who was covered in red armor, lunging at him, Song Jian had no time to dodge, so he could only hold his long sword horizontally in front of him;
Just as he raised his sword to his chest, Jiernaâs battle-axe had already arrived.
âBang-â
With a crisp sound of metal clashing, Song Jian felt a sharp pain in his chest and a tearing pain in his right hand holding the sword, almost unable to hold the sword.
Blood spewed from his mouth, and Song Jianâs body was knocked back.
âDare not fight one-on-one?â Song Jian climbed up from the ground, angry, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, yelling at Jierna.
âOne-on-one?â Jierna was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing, âDid your human mind break? These Red-tailed Beasts are my pets, and also a part of my power. Why should I give up this power to fight one-on-one with you? Hahahaha!â
âPets are also part of your power, huh? Well, thatâs what you said!â Song Jianâs eyes flashed with a cunning look.
Soon, a Hexagram Star summoning array appeared under Song Jianâs feet.
âWhoosh!â
A large group of dark red blood crows flew out of the summoning array and pounced on Jierna.
These blood crows were at least level 8, and some had even risen to level 10. Obviously, Song Jianâs summoned creatures had not been idle during his absence.
Thirty blood crows crowded into the narrow, five-meter-wide, three-meter-high corridor. They were not used to such a cramped environment. As soon as they appeared, they swarmed towards Jierna;
Seeing that Song Jian had summoned so many blood crows, Jierna was startled. However, after seeing their levels, a disdainful look flashed in her eyes.
âRed-tailed Beasts, kill this garbage!â
