Chapter 171: Pitiful, Weak, and Helpless Boss

Buzz—

Accompanied by a slight distortion of space, a blinding white light flashed.

Lin Mo and his group of twenty arrived at the next checkpoint.

When vision cleared again, everyone found the surrounding environment had undergone earth-shattering changes.

What came into view was a narrow snowfield canyon.

On both sides of the canyon stood glacier cliffs hundreds of meters high, their steep faces hung with sharp icicles.

Wild winds tore through the canyon, emitting shrieks like ghostly wails and wolf howls.

Snow filling the sky blocked the view ahead completely.

Just then.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Heavy footsteps came from the deepest part of the canyon.

With every step, the canyon floor trembled violently.

The icicles on the cliffs were shaken loose, rattling down.

The wind and snow were forcibly torn apart by a violent air current.

A massive bear, as huge as a small mountain, stepped out from the snow mist.

【Polar Bear, Level: 35】

Its body exceeded ten meters in size.

Its entire body was covered in snow-white fur as hard as steel needles.

In its two watermelon-sized eyes, bloodthirsty red light glowed.

A suffocating, violent oppressive pressure instantly enveloped the entire canyon.

Chu Lingxuan instinctively tightened her longsword.

The other students also felt their breathing become somewhat difficult.

Lin Mo wasted no words.

"Meng Qing, apply buffs."

Han Mengqing snapped back to her senses and activated instantly.

"Everyone, ready!"

Lin Mo's gaze sharpened as he coldly shouted:

"Full firepower, smash it to pieces!"

Boom—!!!

The moment his words fell, the Flame Demon phantom and Thunder Qilin appeared simultaneously.

The next moment.

Lin Mo waved his large hand.

Violent 【Flame Storm】 and 【Thunder Chain Prison】 instantly exploded beneath the bear's feet.

Immediately after,

the others were not idle either.

Ye Kong's 【Dimensional Chain Slash】, Han Mengyao's 【Winter Spear】, and the firepower of other geniuses poured crazily onto the bear.

"Roar—!!!"

The bear let out a painful roar.

Under the bombardment of twenty top geniuses, especially Lin Mo's insane firepower.

The bear's health bar was instantly cleared down to 50%!

At the same time,

the bear suddenly reared up on its hind legs, letting out a deafening roar to the sky!

A thick layer of solid ice instantly covered it completely.

【Notice: Polar Titan Bear has triggered the 'Absolute Glacier' mechanic! Defense increased by 90%!】

"A mechanic, huh?"

"I'll give you a mechanic!"

"Keep smashing it to pieces!"

Lin Mo shouted loudly.

Boom—!!!!

The sky suddenly changed color.

Dual-element high-tier skills and combo techniques formed a world-destroying Thunder-Flame Storm that engulfed the bear.

The others also crazily poured out their skills.

Under Lin Mo's dimensional strike.

The bear's health bar was forcibly shaved down directly to 40%!

And this,

also triggered another mechanic.

When health drops to 40%, the 'Absolute Glacier' defense mechanic is removed, switching instead to the 'Berserk' mechanic.

Crack—!

Accompanied by a crisp shattering sound.

The ice armor on the bear's body surface shattered directly into dust.

The so-called defense mechanism.

Was directly smashed apart by Lin Mo's unreasonable damage!

"Continue."

Lin Mo's gaze was cold.

The next second,

A sky-covering barrage of firepower drowned it once again.

"Aowu—"

The giant bear didn't even have a chance to resist; its massive body collapsed with a thunderous crash under the dazzling bombardment of skills.

【Third Trial, Cleared!】

【Time Used: 16 seconds!】

【After a ten-second countdown, teleportation will activate to enter the Fourth Trial.】

Watching the prompts pop up on the panel, the members of Long Xu Ban were all so excited their faces flushed red.

"Hahahaha! Beautifully done, Squad Leader!"

"To hell with the mechanics! This is the first time I've ever known a Team Fuben could be played like this!"

Wang Dawei was so excited he slapped his thigh wildly.

Ye Kong looked at Lin Mo's back, and the reverence in his eyes deepened another layer.

……

The subsequent battles were an absolute crushing display.

The Fourth Trial.

Facing a group of Frost Giants with split and lock-blood mechanics, Lin Mo simply didn't give them a chance to split.

High-tier skills of two elements plus combo skills slammed down.

Time used: 14 seconds, the entire group evaporated.

The Fifth Trial.

Facing an avalanche falling from the sky and ghost monsters hidden within the avalanche.

Lin Mo directly had 'Earth Shield Art' raise 【Wall of Sighs】 to block the avalanche.

Then he turned around and unleashed a barrage of firepower.

Time used: 12 seconds.

……

In the blink of an eye,

Everyone had arrived at the final BOSS trial.

Weng—

The teleportation light faded.

Everyone discovered that they were actually standing on a snowfield lone island suspended in mid-air.

The lone island wasn't very large, roughly the size of a single soccer field.

All around was a bottomless endless abyss, and overhead was a black vortex crackling with lightning and thunder.

"Roar—!!!"

Just at the instant everyone had steadied themselves.

At the very center of the lone island, a colossal creature slowly unfurled its sky-covering wings.

【Frost Dragon (BOSS), Level: 35】

【Frost Dragon: Tiny humans, accept the abyss's winter chill…】

The scales across its entire body were as translucent as gemstones.

On its massive dragon head, two spiraling ice horns thrust straight into the heavens.

It lowered its head, and those dragon eyes stared fixedly at this group of tiny humans.

Dragon might pressed down on everyone's hearts as if it were tangible.

"Gulp…"

Wang Dawei swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "This thing looks like it's not easy to mess with."

Han Mengyao frowned tightly and quickly reminded:

"Squad Leader! It has a four-stage lock-blood mechanic!"

"When its HP hits 80%, 60%, 40%, and 20%, it will forcibly enter an invincible ice-sculpture state and summon a large number of guards. We must clear all the guards to break its invincibility!"

"Who cares about this and that, let's go!"

Lin Mo shouted.

Han Mengqing also extremely skillfully layered on a full set of BUFFs.

The next moment,

Two phantom images behind Lin Mo, no less imposing than the giant dragon, suddenly materialized.

The giant dragon had just opened its massive maw, preparing to unleash a soul-shaking opening dragon roar and incidentally spew a breath of extreme cold.

But the next second.

Lin Mo directly slammed down a string of fire and lightning skills.

Seeing this, Ye Kong and the others didn't waste words either, all unleashing their full firepower.

Rumble rumble—!!

The giant dragon's HP bar instantly plummeted below 80%!

Crack-crack-crack—!

The giant dragon's massive body was instantly covered by a layer of solid ice, entering the first phase of blood-lock invincibility.

【Frost Dragon: Humble insects, my guards will...】

The prompt had barely appeared.

Lin Mo snorted coldly and slammed both hands downward with force.

Boom—!!!

The thunderclouds and fire-colored clouds in the sky churned violently.

【Lei Ting·Purgatory Judgment】, combined with dual-element high-tier skills, descended like divine retribution.

In the void surrounding the ice sculpture, over a hundred giant dragon guards condensed from ice had just poked out their heads.

Under the extreme scouring of Lei Ting, they evaporated instantly, leaving not even a single shard of ice behind.

Crack—!

With the guards instantly wiped out, the invincible ice sculpture state on the giant dragon's body was forcibly dispelled.

The ice sculpture shattered.

The giant dragon abruptly raised its proud head, opened its blood-filled maw, and frantically gathered extreme cold blue light, attempting to unleash a blast of extreme cold breath.

However, Lin Mo's high-tier skills and combo techniques continued to deal damage.

The sky-filling meteor shower and raging thunder directly slashed the giant dragon's health down to 60% once more.

The giant dragon's massive body stiffened again, forcibly entering the second blood-lock phase and turning into an ice sculpture once more.

【Frost Dragon: Feel the despair of extreme cold! Abyss kin, for your king...】

The prompt text had only popped out halfway.

The second wave of over a hundred guards had just spawned in the wind and snow.

They were wiped out by Lin Mo's still-dealing damage fire net.

Crack—!

The invincible ice sculpture shattered again!

This time, a trace of shock and panic finally flashed in the giant dragon's dragon eyes.

It, a mighty Abyss Frost Dragon, had guarded this isolated island for years and tortured countless humans.

What the hell kind of firepower was this?!

It had just wanted to spread its wings and fly high, creating distance.

That ruthless Lei Ting fire net slashed its health down to 40% once again.

The giant dragon hadn't even had time to flap its wings twice before it was forced into an ice sculpture for the third time.

【Frost Dragon: Wait! How could someone as great as I... Believers, protect the sovereign! Quick, protect...】

"Protect your grandpa!"

Lin Mo waved his large hand.

The moment the third wave of guards showed their heads, they were instantly pounded into powder by hundreds or thousands of thunderbolts.

Crack—!

The ice sculpture shattered for the third time.

The giant dragon's massive body shuddered violently.

Amidst the sky-covering tide of skills, its health bar instantly plummeted past the final 20% threshold!

Crack-crack-crack—

The giant dragon turned into an ice sculpture for the fourth time.

【Frost Dragon: No! Abyss... help...】

Boom—!!!

The fourth wave of guards turned to flying ash.

Crack!

Accompanied by the final shattering sound.

Under the relentless bombardment of countless skills, the Frost Dragon exploded into a pile of ice shards, filled with frustration and despair.

From start to finish, it hadn't even managed to take a few steps forward.

Pitiful, weak, and helpless.

【Final Stage, Cleared!】

【Prompt: Team Fuben 'Dragon-Burying Snowfield' (Hell Difficulty) Strategy Complete!】

【Final Clear Time: 01 minute 50 seconds!】
