Chapter 649: Soloing the Gold-back Wolf King
After ending his conversation with Jinli, Jiang Feng had gained some new understanding of Combat Rating.
The higher one’s Combat Rating was, the more powerful one would be overall.
“Hehe, have both of you ever tried killing a boss? Should the three of us give it a try?” Jinli said with a peal of small laughter after she taught Jiang Feng about some of the common knowledge in the Great World of Tianji.
Niumou nodded. It was obvious that he was quite eager.
Even if they did not get a high evaluation after killing a boss, the items that they could get would be quite good. Especially if they could get secret manuals from a boss.
While these things would not directly drop from the monsters’ corpses, there was a chance to obtain some things once someone had gotten a certain evaluation within Tianji’s system.
For example, after killing the Tyrannosaurus Boss, he obtained the highest SSS rank evaluation from it. Naturally, he received the highest Lower-Heaven Rank Secret Manual teaching the Tyrant Fist.
“I don’t mind giving it a try, that being said we should wait a bit. Since there are so many players here, we must be careful or not only would we not be able to kill the boss, we’ll end up losing our lives,” It was quite dangerous fighting a boss. Especially when it was in a situation where there were plenty of players around. If they could not defeat the boss, they could at least still escape. But if they killed the boss, the players nearby would definitely try to kill them and steal their stuff.
The drop rate in the Great World Tianji was 100%. Meaning that if he was killed, everything inside his backpack would belong to whoever killed him.
That was why plenty of players, when leaving Tianxing Town, would only bring a sword and they would never bring a backpack, as they were worried that if they died, they would drop it.
Or it was better to say that they only had some potions, food, and drinks in their backpack.
Jinli nodded and said, “True. If we were killed, our weapons and backpacks would all be dropped and we would also lose 1 star and 100 points of combat rating. It isn’t worth it. We should observe the situation for a while.”
After the three of them had finished conversing, they walked toward the grass around the valley and prepared to observe the Gold-back Wolf King that had left the valley.
They then saw that the man that had escaped the valley earlier did not receive anyone’s help. The Gold-back Wolf King jumped and slammed him to the death on the ground with his claw. His backpack was dropped, lying silently on the ground, tempting them.
The man should not be too weak if he dared to fight the Gold-back Wolf King. Not to mention that he and his four party members were farming monsters just now. There must be a lot of items within his backpack and they would be worth something. Someone would no doubt be tempted.
It did not take very long and a party of five slowly opened up a formation and surrounded the Gold-back Wolf King.
Other than this party, there were three other parties. These three parties were all three-men parties, just like Jiang Feng’s party.
That meant that there were five parties at the scene.
Roar!
When the Gold-back Wolf King saw that someone wanted to kill it again, it roared out angrily and jumped into the air, and then attacked a dark-skinned man with a broadsword.
The black-skinned man was going to escape, but the Gold-back Wolf King’s front legs suddenly became filled with chi as it violently slammed its paw over.
The black-skinned man was shocked as he tried to dodge.
Unfortunately, even though he managed to dodge the Gold-back Wolf King’s claws, he was still struck by the chi from his left and struck him away, taking away half of his HP.
The black-skinned man had just wanted to crawl up when the Gold-back Wolf King’s giant body fell upon him and slammed him to death in one strike. He also dropped his backpack.
In less than five seconds, another player was once again killed by the Gold-back Wolf King. All the players at the scene were shocked and they slowly took a step back.
“We can’t kill it, retreat!” When the party’s party leader saw this, he frowned and chose to give up and quickly retreat from the Gold-back Wolf King’s aggro.
The captain was very smart.
Originally, he thought that they could kill the Gold-back Wolf King with five of them. Unfortunately, a party member was immediately killed before even being able to fight back. As there were still other parties within the area, he chose to give up after giving it a thought.
As a five-man band could not do anything against the Gold-back Wolf King, all the other parties other than Jiang Feng’s party had given up on killing the Gold-back Wolf King.
Their power was much weaker when compared to the five-man party. They must have a death wish if they still wanted to try to kill the Gold-back Wolf King.
“Sigh… I didn’t expect that the Gold-back Wolf King would be so powerful. While it didn’t use any secret manual, just its inner chi alone is not something we could handle. Let’s just give up.” Jinli shook her head when she saw what happened.
“Alright. I will kill some more monsters in this area, see you again.” Jiang Feng nodded but his eyes slightly narrowed at the Gold-back Wolf King that was walking back into the valley.
Letting a boss go? No way!
To him, a boss was a moving treasure trove. Give up? Not for him!
Jinli and Niumou said their goodbyes and left.
In order to stop others from getting suspicious, Jiang Feng looked for a Gold-back Wolf and began fighting it.
As for the two dead players’ backpacks, they were picked up by the party leader of the five-men parties. As for the other three parties, one of them had left while the other two were still farming the Gold-back Wolves.
“Expeditious Steps!”
When no one was paying him any attention, he used Expeditious Steps and quickly ran into the valley like a phantom.
The valley was huge. Only when he had run to the end of the valley did he see the Gold-back Wolf King that had retreated.
At this time, there were four backpacks next to the Gold-back Wolf King.
“Haha! The man that tried to escape didn’t pick up his party members’ backpack! They are all mine now,” Jiang Feng laughed excitedly when he saw it.
Howl!
His voice attracted the Gold-back Wolf King’s attention. When the Gold-back Wolf King saw that there was another intruder, it quickly rushed toward Jiang Feng.
“I should do this quickly so that no one would come over when I am fighting!” He mumbled to himself as he rushed over with the Qingfeng Sword in his hand.
“Transmute Monster!”
Ding. Tianji System Prompt: Transmute Monster Failed!
The moment that he used Transmute Monster, the Gold-back Wolf King’s body was stunned for one second.
And in that second, Jiang Feng brutally stabbed the Qingfeng Sword in his hand into the Gold-back Wolf King’s eye. And then, he began to move the chi in both of his hands and stabbed it deeper, dealing a total of 145 points of damage.
The Gold-back Wolf King’s total HP was around 1,1000. The damage he dealt just now was critical damage, but he did not cause any critical damage.
The low damage was nothing to the Gold-back Wolf King.
Howl!
The Gold-back Wolf King howled in pain, and then its claw cleaved at Jiang Feng.
When he saw that the Gold-back Wolf King’s claw was almost on him, he quickly activated his Chi Shield.
Chi Shield was an advantage given to him as he used his real body to enter the game. As long as his real body did not enter the game, he would have no such advantage.
Boom!
-269
The Gold-back Wolf King’s paw struck on the Chi Shield, throwing Jiang Feng away and the Chi Shield was immediately destroyed as he had expended 200 points of chi.
And just when he was thrown out, the Qingfeng Sword was pulled out, dealing another critical damage.
“Exploding Fist!”
Before he could even land on the ground, he used Exploding Fist on the back of the Gold-back Wolf King so that he would not be stomped by the Gold-back Wolf King when he fell onto the ground. He saw what happened to the man that escaped as well as the Black-skinned man. Naturally, he did not want to end up just like them.
Boom!
The Exploding Fist immediately struck at Gold-back Wolf King’s blind eye, dealing a terrifying amount of damage.
His Xingyi Fist was considered to be Master level in the Great World of Tianji. While he was not sure what level of Secret Manual it would be in terms of damage, his guess was that it would be no weaker than the Lower-Heaven Rank Tyrant Fist.
After stopping the Gold-back Wolf King from coming over, he landed on the ground and quickly got up, and once again attacked toward the Gold-back Wolf King.
