[Server 0308888 - Fengdu Town] ["Who Wants to Be a Plantman"]: This is indeed a rule I set, but right now I can't control the range of my skills. If anyone snags the final hit, I, Plantman, promise here that I won't target anyone specifically, but collateral damage is unavoidable. Don't worry—our guild's Suture Saint has a resurrection spell and can bring everyone back. Fair price: 100 silver coins, no cheating customers.
Suture Saint immediately shouted in the team chat: "Sweet! Plant Girl, you secretly take them all out later, and I'll resurrect them. We split the profits fifty-fifty!"
Little Sister Wu: "So jealous! We're both healing classes, but when will I ever get a resurrection spell!"
Suture Saint said with a chuckle: "I got my resurrection spell from opening a chest dropped by a map boss, but it was a golden chest! You still have two more chances!"
The highest-level boss, the Goblin Abyss Overlord, drops golden chests.
Second, the first-kill of a hell-difficulty dungeon also drops a golden chest.
But whether you actually pull the spell from it is all up to your luck.
Honestly, just from watching Suture Saint open the Mysterious Merchant's chests, you could tell who was the lucky one.
At low levels, resurrection spells were incredibly rare.
"Don't lose heart. One of the bosses in the nightmare-difficulty dungeon might also drop a resurrection spell."
As Chu Fu finished speaking, she raised her staff, [Kinda Toxic].
Toxic Spray!
First, stack 5 layers of poison on the boss.
Then, Slow Curse and Plague Spread.
The moment Plague Spread came out, members of the Rongxun guild immediately retreated. Priests raised their wands to dispel the miasma, and some even popped antidote potions.
The strategy guide summarized by Feng Minhui of the Huan Yu Workshop—Huan Yu never got to use it, but Rongxun Studio actually had it ready.
That wave, their losses were relatively small.
But did Chu Fu intend to let them off?
Come out, little darling!
With a summon, Chu Fu released the Charm Mushrooms she had grown in her Spirit Herb Pouch.
Because of mass cultivation, a whole swarm of Charm Mushroom sprites appeared, and every single one of them could cast Charm.
When the Charm Mushroom was placed on the ground, it immediately drew the attention of Rongxun Studio's players.
"These mushrooms are so pretty!"
"They must taste amazing!"
"Hehe, I think I see little people dancing."
Not just them—the Goblin Tribe Chief, two meters tall with bulging muscles, also hopped over, yanked it out of the ground, and shoved it into his mouth.
That immediately poisoned everybody involved.
But it wasn't over yet.
The moment the Charm Mushroom appeared, all the goblins within 200 meters (fixing again) came charging over with a roar.
Originally, the goblins within 100 meters had already been cleared.
Now, an even larger swarm of goblins from beyond the perimeter were lured in, stampeding toward the spot.
Chaos reigned once more.
Players were even being killed by goblins.
The boss's location had gathered roughly a thousand players, most of them from Rongxun Studio, and the rest were scattered independent players from zones 026-029.
Because the studio was deliberately hogging the boss, independent players didn't dare try to fight for it. Of course, there were still some stubborn ones who came to watch the excitement.
As for players from zone 030, they hadn't shown up at all.
They'd already given up.
With Plantman being such a monster, how could they possibly compete?
Right now, all these people were crowded together, shrouded in Plague Spread.
The most terrifying part came when players and goblins started dying.
The very next moment, the corpses began to swell.
"Bang!"
Toxin sprayed outward, splattering everywhere.
Not just that—the Charm Mushroom also activated. A cloud of purple mist spread out, releasing dense spores.
The spores landed on the corpses, and mushrooms began sprouting from their mouths and eyes.
It was a horrifying sight.
In just thirty seconds.
The boss's area was littered with corpses.
Players were dying in large numbers.
Meanwhile, players on the map were still typing messages.
"Wow, the big shots from zone 030 are this merciful? That means us independents can fight the boss too? I didn't go earlier—coming now!"
"Don't come! Don't fall for her nonsense. She's flying up in the sky killing us like we're sitting ducks!"
"Come here, and that's 100 silver coins for treatment."
"Damn it! Who picked up my equipment! All my gear!"
Amid the players' screams, the boss's health dropped to 50%.
Chu Fu raised her staff.
[Malicious Detonation!]
In an instant, all the poison stacked on the boss exploded.
BOOM.
The boss lost a full 9% of its health.
The higher the boss's level, the more it weakens percentage-based skills, but a 9% drop was still terrifyingly potent.
What's more, a 50-meter area of the ground turned into a pool of poison.
Fortunately, Jiaojiao, as a teammate, wasn't affected. She stood right in the poison pool, trading blows head-on with the boss.
"Heh heh, little boss, hitting this grandma doesn't hurt at all!"
Jiaojiao had zero pressure.
Chu Fu kept reapplying poison, kept detonating.
At this rate, the boss wouldn't survive more than a few rounds.
The boss's health dropped to 20%.
That was Xie Lin's execution threshold.
[Holy Light Judgement!]
The rest of the party was also unloading their skills.
[Thousand Needles, Ten Thousand Holes]
[Mecha Self-Destruct (Mechanist Lv. 15 skill)]
[Gu Worm Frenzy (Gu Master Lv. 10 skill)]
[Soul Calamity (Torment Warlock Lv. 10 skill)]
[Steel Force Infusion (Martial Artist Lv. 10 skill)]
[Puppet Gigantification (Puppeteer Lv. 10 skill)]
Chu Fu abandoned the Charm Mushroom and pulled out a Watermelon Bomb instead.
Throwing!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The watermelons slammed into the boss, each chunk dealing 10,000 damage.
Watermelon Bomb's damage was starting to fall behind.
Of course, it was still great for crowd control, but it clearly wasn't cutting it against the boss.
At this point, within 50 meters of the boss, no one was left except Jiaojiao, Xie Lin, and Granny Wu Yingchun.
The boss was taken down without any doubt, the last hit secured by their team.
[Server Announcement: Players "Who Wants to Be a Plantman," "Rocket on a Wheelchair," "Are You Calling Me Blind?," "Jiaojiao," "Suture Saint," "Shafu Liangu," "Wu Yingchun," "Little Sister Wu," "Zhimengzhe," and "Bitter Melon King" have completed the first-kill of the Level 13 Field Boss "Goblin Tribe Chief"! Reward: All stats +2, Silver Chest ×2!]
The entire server was shaken.
Outside Fengdu Town.
At the location of the Level 18 Goblin Warlord.
A thousand-player raid was assaulting the boss.
"Damn, how are they this fast? It's only been three minutes since the server merged! How did they already take down a boss?" Jiang Yixing was panicking!
"Hurry up, speed up! There's no way they can get over here!"
"Exactly, besides this boss, there's also a Level 15 boss! Based on their route, they wouldn't come here."
"But Xingxing, this boss is way too strong. It's driving a war chariot. We've already lost 3 main tanks, and if this keeps up, we'll run out of tanks."
