Chapter 108: The Mantis Stalks the Cicada?

Everyone knows Mo Wen Qianchen is strong, but they also know he is rich.

If we could take down Mo Wen Qianchen…

Add some damn luck, and if that epic equipment drops directly, we'll get rich.

If it were just Mo Wen Qianchen alone, these ten or so people of his manor would never dare to think of attacking him.

After all, even Qiancheng Muxue's Thousand-Person Team couldn't stop Mo Wen Qianchen.

But now Mo Wen Qianchen is soloing a level 35 Elite BOSS! It's practically a heaven-sent opportunity.

Finally, the manor general gritted his teeth and directly ordered in the team channel: "Xiao Ye, keep an eye on him; if there's a chance, we ten will rush in and take down both the BOSS and Mo Wen Qianchen."

Ten or so manor players saw their leader's decision, and their hearts raced simultaneously.

At this stage, speaking purely of personal strength, there's no doubt Mo Wen Qianchen is absolutely the game's number one player.

After all, who else would dare to charge alone into a major guild's Thousand-Person Team, or even the Thousand-Person Team that is one of the top ten guilds.

And now their manor is about to hunt this number-one player.

As long as they succeed, they will definitely make the manor famous overnight.

"Seek wealth in danger; let's do it together, boss!"

"Good! Let's fuck him!"

"Kill Mo Wen Qianchen and get rich!"

"Only children make choices; we want both Mo Wen Qianchen and the Elite BOSS."

"Okay, boss, I'm watching him; he just chugged a Blood Bottle, so we might actually have a chance!" Manor's Xiao Ye was also excited.

"Keep watching! When the BOSS's health drops to the last ten percent and it erupts, that's our chance." The manor general instructed.

Since Mo Wen Qianchen dares to solo the BOSS, it means he has some confidence, but the manor general doesn't believe Su Sheng can do it without taking damage.

Especially when facing the level 35 Elite BOSS's enrage.

At the same time, he ordered others to be careful, not to aggro monsters or expose themselves.

…

Su Sheng also indeed didn't know that someone was currently scheming against him.

After all, the small monsters wandering the outskirts, although they hindered the manor's endeavors, also hindered Su Sheng's vision at the same time.

Furthermore, the assassin called Manor Xiao Ye was also at a distance from Su Sheng, hiding among the horde of small monsters.

A level 30 lowly demon corpse still couldn't detect the stealth of the level 21 Manor Xiao Ye.

Facing the level 35 Elite BOSS alone, Su Sheng couldn't possibly have the energy to pay attention to wandering wild monsters; as long as they don't come over to disturb him, it's fine.

Moreover, this area belongs to the BOSS zone; under normal circumstances, ordinary small monsters wouldn't wander over here.

…

The manor's people were waiting.

Su Sheng was hard at work attacking.

As time passed, the Corpse King BOSS's health steadily decreased.

Watching Su Sheng perfectly handle the BOSS's Health Axis skill mechanism each time, Manor Xiao Ye showed an expression of admiration.

Of course, admiration is admiration.

What should be taken, he still has to take.

At the same time, he kept feeding updates on Su Sheng and the BOSS bit by bit to the manor's leader.

When the BOSS is attacked, its health bar is displayed directly above its head, and players at a certain distance can observe it.

Although there are no specific numbers or percentages, one can estimate the visible health bar with the naked eye.

The manor general and others were a bit far away and couldn't see the specifics.

However, the nearby Manor Xiao Ye could see it very clearly.

When the BOSS's health approached fifteen percent, upon receiving the report, the manor general instantly became energized.

"Xiao Ye, sneak over and prepare for an ambush."

"We're coming right away, everyone, charge now, ignore the wandering monsters, and charge straight in!"

Subsequently, the manor general led the charge, going in first.

Although there were wandering small monsters, there were still gaps between them; it wasn't tightly packed with no spaces.

As long as they ignore these monsters and charge straight in, although they will eventually draw the hatred of many monsters,

but as long as they charge in, sacrificing just one or two people to specifically handle the hatred will do.

As long as they can take down the BOSS and Mo Wen Qianchen, everything will be worth it.

…

"Huh?"

As Su Sheng landed a sword strike on the Corpse King BOSS, his brow twitched.

"An assassin!"

At first, Manor Xiao Ye was relatively far away, and Su Sheng really didn't notice him.

But once he got close to Su Sheng, Su Sheng still noticed him right away.

One couldn't say there are no assassins capable of using Invisibility to get close to Su Sheng, but there definitely aren't more than a handful; clearly, Manor Xiao Ye is not among them.

After glancing at his own health, Su Sheng revealed a faint, sarcastic smile.

From the start, Su Sheng had braced himself mentally, knowing that other players might come to this area while he was tackling the BOSS.

That's why, to cope with such a situation, Su Sheng tried to keep his health line within a safe range as much as possible.

With the life-drain of the Wolf Fang Pendant and regularly drinking Blood Bottles, Su Sheng's health of over four thousand stayed consistently above three thousand,

But, having progressed smoothly and being about to take down the Corpse King BOSS, with no mishaps in sight, Su Sheng still thought his luck was extremely good.

However, it now seems obvious that someone did come.

Not only did they come, but the other side also wanted it—mantis stalks cicada, oriole waits behind.

Just…

Su Sheng gave an evil, charming smile, probably also knowing their thoughts, waiting for the boss's final burst, and when the boss went berserk, to kill themselves and then take over the boss.

But it's a pity they don't know that this boss's burst summons a swarm of minions.

At that moment, a commotion broke out among the peripheral monsters.

Su Sheng knew it was the assassin's teammate rushing in.

The boss's HP was at eleven percent.

Whoa!

At that moment, a group of players charged into the arena, over ten people.

The boss's HP was at ten percent.

Roar!

Instantly, the Corpse King boss began to roar.

The boss went berserk.

The shogunate's people instantly rejoiced.

And just then, Su Sheng abandoned the boss and turned to strike with his sword.

Heroic Strike!

-597

-601

Two damage numbers appeared in the void.

Shogunate's Xiao Ye was still dazed, and instantly turned into white light.

Battle notification: your party received a hostile attack from player Mo Wen Qianchen…

Party notification: your teammate 'Shogunate's Xiao Ye' has fallen…

This left the shogunate's people completely bewildered.

What the heck?

How did Mo Wen Qianchen discover Xiao Ye?

But they no longer had time to think.

Clatter~

Swarms of rotting corpse minions crawled out, instantly separating the shogunate's people from Su Sheng again,

These minions were not the scattered wandering monsters from before, but dense swarms.

To get through, they had to clear monsters all the way.

Although they were level 20 minions with mediocre stats, there were a lot of them.

As for running?

When the shogunate charged in, those low-level demon corpses behind had all been provoked and were now rushing from behind.

For a moment, the shogunate's people were caught between advancing and retreating.
