“Let your very life be the punishment you receive! I’m going to use your skull to adorn my ice throne. Let your soul howl in the ice hell for ten thousand years!” The voice of the Frost Naga Boss transformed, becoming as harsh as Siberia’s cold wind.
The two long knives in her hand ruthlessly swooped down on Song Jian’s head.
Clang-
A crisp clash of metal rang out as Song Jian blocked the Frost Naga Boss’s double blades with his Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword. Looking up with a slight smile gracing his lips, his eyes held no signs of enchantment.
“You… you actually…” The Frost Naga Boss’s face showed surprise. She hadn’t expected this human to resist her charm.
“Why did he behave in such a way before? Not good, this is a trap, he’s luring me closer to him!” The Frost Naga Boss had a sudden realization as she laid eyes on the dozens of meter-tall robots beside Song Jian.
“Danger!” Just as the warning flared in the mind of the Frost Naga Boss, a Self-destructing Robot charged towards her.
Whoosh-
With the movement of this robot, all the Self-destructing Robots started hurtling towards the Frost Naga Boss.
“I was afraid that if you were too far away, something unexpected could happen,” Song Jian said with a smile. Song Jian, blessed with the “Thick-Skinned” talent skill was basically immune to all charm and control skills. The reason he acted like he was enchanted before was to lure the Frost Naga Boss closer to him. After all, she was a lord-level Boss and her strength was insurmountable. From such a great distance, he had no assurance that the Self-destructing Robots could get close to her.
Boom!
The explosion sounded and a strong blast rushed towards Song Jian. Song Jian quickly raised his hand to shield his face. Right before he did so, he saw the Frost Naga Boss, only two meters away from him, with a damage number of 500 floating above her head.
Boom boom boom-
The explosions continued one after the other. All the Self-destructing Robots burst open. Under Song Jian’s control, he was fully immune to their explosions, showing no concern while in the centre of the explosion.
“Did I waste 18 Self-destructing Robots? Well, she is the first lord-level Boss I’m hunting, so using some extra robots could be considered her send-off,” thought Song Jian.
Soon, the explosions ceased. Surrounded by countless shards of ice like a veil of dust, Song Jian couldn’t help but grin. He’d defeated a level 18 lord-level Boss so easily. He was eager to see what items she dropped. Maybe she even dropped a piece of golden equipment?
Just as he was entertaining these thoughts, the ice dust began to fade. Song Jian felt a sense of wrongness and hurriedly scoured the system prompts.
“No, this Boss isn’t dead yet. The system didn’t display any battle experience gained!” An illumination flashed through Song Jian’s mind, casting his face in shock.
Just then, Song Jian saw a gigantic ice coffin materialize, with the entire body of the Frost Naga Boss ensconced in thick ice. Besides the one robot that managed to damage her with 500 points, all the remaining Self-destructing Robots were in vain and didn’t even inflict a modicum of damage.
Frost Barrier! This was the Frost Naga Boss’s lifesaving skill, with an incredibly long cooldown period and which could only be used once per battle.
“What is this skill?” Song Jian stood dumbstruck, gazing at the wreckage of the Self-destructing Robots, filled with regret.
Crack-
The ice coffin dissolved instantly. The boss, her face as frosty as ever, charged towards Song Jian, twin blades in hand.
Swish swish swish-
The Boss swung her blades rapidly, striking Song Jian repeatedly, leaving afterimages in the air due to the sheer speed.
Thud thud thud thud-
Blood sprayed from Song Jian’s body as his Vitality Points abruptly dropped by over 300. At this moment, a massive Desert Scorpion Beast Illusion manifested in front of Song Jian, letting out a roar at the Frost Naga Boss. Its gigantic stinger aimed at the Boss, causing a piercing howl to echo throughout the air. Song Jian hit the ground hard, rolling several times before managing to regain his footing.
Wiping the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, Song Jian’s eyes flashed determinedly. He’d placed too much faith in the Self-destructing Robots and did not expect her to possess a skill that could resist all damage.
“Luckily, the special effect of the Scorpion Beast Helmet has recovered, or else I’d be in danger,” Song Jian ruefully thought. Now, however, was not the time for regrets. The Desert Scorpion Beast Illusion was not a match for the Frost Naga Boss. Furthermore, its attacks were like tickles to the Boss. The gigantic scorpion stinger struck the boss like stabbing ultra-strong alloy, only leaving behind white spots.
“A phantom, not to be feared, as irritating as a fly,” the Frost Naga Boss tried to attack the Desert Scorpion Beast, but discovered it was as though they existed in different dimensions. She could not attack it, and out of necessity, she had to passively withstand its onslaught.
She abandoned further attacks on the Desert Scorpion Beast, and locked her focus on Song Jian not too far away. Both her hands, now holding a bow and arrow, drew and aimed at Song Jian.
Zoom zoom zoom-
A series of ice arrows shot towards Song Jian. He waved his sword to block, shattering the arrows. But with every arrow he shattered, a fraction of the ice power seeped into his body.
Tai Chi Sword Skill!
Song Jian waved his sword, a faint Tai Chi illusion appeared in front of him, continuously blocking the rain of ice arrows.
Watching Song Jian nimbly parry the ice arrows, Frost Naga Boss displayed a strange smile that left no doubt of her confidence in winning.
At this time, her two hands, each clenching a shield, were raised high up, covering her forefront and blocking the Desert Scorpion Beast’s attacks. She constantly aimed her arrows at Song Jian.
“You can withstand the damage from the ice arrows, but how will you withstand the frost power? See how I deal with you once the freezing effect gets triggered!” The Frost Naga Boss had already started daydreaming about tormenting her frozen prey, bursting into loud laughter along the way. However, the Frost Naga Boss soon realized that Song Jian seemingly had high resistance, as the freezing effect didn’t trigger even once.
Then, with a “zoom,” an ice arrow which collided with the Tai Chi illusion in front of Song Jian suddenly changed direction, hurtling towards the Frost Naga Boss at a faster pace.
Thud-
The ice arrow plunged hard into the Frost Naga Boss’s shoulder, with damage points above too floating from her head.
“How is this possible? Why is his resistance so high that he’s never been frozen?” Looking at the ice arrow slowly melting in her shoulder, the Frost Naga Boss was consumed with fury.
