Qin Xiaoyou: “Could I be a reincarnator?”

???

Chen Wuming almost doubted if his ears were broken: "Three hundred years? Do you take me for a sucker? If you were Shadow helping me fight, that price might be fair."

Qin Xiaoyou: "Then two hundred years will do. This is a Bloodline, after all."

Chen Wuming didn't reply for the moment.

He glanced at another group of people not far from the dead forest; they were the Government personnel who had discovered the Boss at the same time as him.

"They aren't planning to make a move?"

"It looks like they're waiting for someone."

"Could it be they found someone to help?"

"Could it be Shadow?"

"What are you thinking? This place is over three hundred kilometers away from the teleportation array! With only twelve minutes left, they'd have to teleport from the Magic City Ruins… Even Shadow couldn't pull that off!"

The members of the Knights Templar were whispering among themselves.

Clearly, their understanding of Qin Feng's speed was still stuck in the previous phase.

Once, Qin Feng had helped them fight some Bosses.

So they deduced that the speed of Qin Feng riding his flying dragon was roughly equivalent to the speed of sound.

But they didn't know…

That was not Osirio's maximum speed!

Furthermore, after that, Qin Feng's level increased, which also caused Osirio's level to rise, resulting in higher Agility and even greater speed!

At this distance, Qin Feng could arrive in just about ten minutes.

With two minutes left, wouldn't instantly killing a Platinum-grade Boss be a breeze?

…

Unfortunately, the Knights Templar players knew nothing about Qin Feng's speed.

Chen Wuming, riding his leopard battle beast and wielding a long halberd, began to ponder.

The importance of a Bloodline went without saying.

Chen Wuming could not give up.

He looked at the Bloodline Boss a few dozen meters ahead:

— —

[ Undead Shaman · Huilunde (Lv20) ]

[ Rank: Platinum (Bloodline) ]

[ Existence Countdown: 12 minutes 29 seconds ]

— —

That was a humanoid Undead Shaman nearly three meters tall, holding a skull shaman staff. It was very likely to drop a Bloodline suitable for Priests!

"If our Priest had a Bloodline, my safety would be greatly guaranteed…"

Chen Wuming's class was 'Templar Knight', and he was the team's main tank.

The stronger the healer, the safer he would be.

"Regardless, we must try."

Chen Wuming thought for a moment and still opened a private chat with Qin Xiaoyou.

He asked: "Where did you get that strategy guide? Is it authentic? If it can help us get the Bloodline, I can give you a reward of two hundred years of Lifespan."

At this moment, Qin Xiaoyou was in the Knights Templar 'Noble Garden' Hideout, lying on a rocking chair and sunbathing.

She quickly replied: "Don't ask where it's from. Undead Shaman, right?"

Immediately after, she described the general appearance of the Boss.

For a moment, Chen Wuming was amazed!

This woman wasn't even at the scene, yet she knew what the Boss looked like?

"Awesome, then tell me, how do you fight this Boss?"

Chen Wuming was genuinely interested now.

"Phase one is very simple. In phase two, it will spawn many, many bone towers. You can't destroy all of these bone towers; you have to leave one."

After a three-second pause.

Chen Wuming replied: "That's it?"

Qin Xiaoyou: "Yeah, that's the only difficult part of this Boss. Everything else is very simple."

In her memory, when Qin Feng took her to clear this Boss, they seemed to have wiped several times, mostly because of the bone tower mechanic.

The Boss would summon over a dozen bone towers. Each bone tower would continuously release bone spikes, attacking surrounding players, putting immense pressure on healing.

So the towers had to be destroyed.

But if all the bone towers were destroyed, the Boss would fixedly release a full-screen skill with extremely high damage!

In Qin Xiaoyou's memory, when they finally defeated the Boss, there was one bone tower left on the field, and they had another warrior hold the aggro and tank the bone spike damage…

But this hazy, abstract memory was, for Chen Wuming, clearly of no use whatsoever.

"Forget it, might as well treat a dead horse as if it were alive."

"Anyway, I don't have much Lifespan on me, so the loss won't be big if I die."

Chen Wuming felt a bit annoyed.

He confirmed with Qin Xiaoyou repeatedly: "Is this Boss really very simple in phase one?"

Qin Xiaoyou confirmed repeatedly: "Very simple! Trust me."

She was very confident.

Recently, memories like the dream she had last time kept appearing in her mind.

Some scenes, even though she hadn't seen them before, matched up with real-life scenes!

Like this 'Undead Shaman' Boss this time!

This made her very suspicious—could she be a reincarnator, just with her memories sealed, and only now starting to break the seal?

This made her a bit expectant…

If that were really the case, she would definitely be able to find a way to heal her legs!

"Alright, then we're charging in."

Chen Wuming believed her words.

Riding his leopard battle beast, he charged first toward that 'Undead Shaman'!

Flying Fire Meteor!

The long halberd in his hand was like a shooting star, flames erupting from the shaft as he thrust it right into the middle of the Undead Shaman's pelvis.

-1998 (Weak Point Attack)!

The Undead Shaman had been walking with its back to them, but suddenly being attacked in a critical area, it became instantly enraged!

As a group of people followed Chen Wuming to surround and attack it.

From the hollow skull eye sockets of the Undead Shaman, ghastly white ghost fire emerged, and it squeezed the skull shaman staff in its hand.

Clang!

A ghastly white bone cage trapped the main aggro target—Chen Wuming—along with his mount inside.

"What is this thing?"

"Attack the bone cage and let me out."

Chen Wuming commanded calmly on the team channel.

He had seen plenty of similar Boss mechanics; for this kind of cage that trapped people, you just had to break it.

However…

When Chen Wuming's team members focused their fire and shattered the bone cage trapping him, suddenly a ghastly white bone spike erupted from the ground!

It first pierced and killed the leopard battle beast Chen Wuming was riding on the spot!

Then…

Poor Chen Wuming suffered a 'Thousand Years of Death', his entire body impaled by the bone spike!

"I… damn it!"

-8.7w (Weak Point Attack)!

Chen Wuming died on the spot!

If Qin Feng had seen this scene, he probably would have shaken his head…

That bone cage must not be attacked.

You can only wait half a minute for it to disappear naturally.

But after being trapped in the bone cage, the Boss's aggro would shift, so this Boss required three warrior-type classes to take turns holding aggro.

Once the bone cage was forcibly broken, one would suffer the same fate as Chen Wuming…

At this moment, Chen Wuming was directly impaled by the bone spike, split in two, and hung four or five meters in the air. His corpse was instantly corrupted into white bone, spraying Deep Blue ghost fire at the surrounding players!

"Holy crap, the Guild Leader split open!"

"Holy crap, the Guild Leader's corpse was turned into a monster!"

"Holy crap, the Guild Leader's corpse is breathing fire!"

Chaos ensued in the team channel.

Meanwhile, Chen Wuming had already respawned at the Gold-grade 'Noble Garden' Hideout, looking completely bewildered.

He quickly commanded in the team channel: "Don't panic. Gaoshou, you take over the on-site command! If another bone cage appears, don't attack it; have another tank go up and take the aggro!"

However, bad news soon came from the front line.

Reborn Gaoshou Healer: "Damn it! This Boss heals itself! How do you stop its healing effect?"

Reborn Gaoshou Healer: "This thing just healed to full health! It seems to have gone berserk, one-shotting everyone!! Damn it, we can't beat it, run!"

Chen Wuming felt annoyed.

This is what Qin Xiaoyou called 'very simple'?

Simple my foot! Many mechanics are the opposite of other Bosses; a proper raid would take at least two or three hours, right?

And when he found Qin Xiaoyou…

"What? You didn't even pass phase one? Then you guys are just too noob."

"The strategy I gave you is absolutely authentic!"

Qin Xiaoyou said solemnly, while also looking a bit disdainful: "Seriously, speechless! Such a simple Boss, and you guys managed to wipe in phase one; too noob."

???

Chen Wuming began to doubt his own life!

What right do you have to call us noobs when you're in a wheelchair in real life?

I'm the one who bought that wheelchair for you, hey!
