Chapter 1101: Magic Armor Boss. (4000 characters)

Boss!

Su Sheng watched the system notification about rising environmental suppression, then looked at this vast empty space, pondering as he spoke.

However, so far the altar is empty, with no movement at all, and the cavity behind it is even deeper.

"If nothing unexpected happens, we should be fighting the boss now; everyone get ready, don't be stingy with the magic resistance potions at this point." Su Sheng reminded them turning back.

The other four nodded; they naturally understood this reasoning, having refrained from using the anti‑demon potion earlier just for this crucial moment.

Now fighting the boss, if the situation looks grim, they will certainly not be stingy with the anti‑demon potion.

But it's still early; we haven't even seen the boss yet.

Su Sheng approached the cage; the people inside looked at him with hope.

"Are you an explorer? Are you here to rescue us?"

"Please, you must save us."

The NPCs in the cage chattered, while Su Sheng silently glanced at the boy, then at the large lock.

Knowing that to rescue them they would need a specific key item.

As for these Ying Jiang‑clad NPCs, Su Sheng couldn't be bothered to talk, then turned and joined the Dream Building Squad.

Afterward, Su Sheng led everyone deeper in.

Soon they saw a high platform and a massive gate.

The pure stone gate was completely sealed, but before it stood a stone platform with a suit of armor on it.

Exactly, only one suit of armor. Inside the armor was entirely a roiling mass of black energy.

Crack—

The moment Su Sheng and the others entered, the armor sprang to life.

Without a word, it charged at them, swinging its long sword.

Su Sheng hesitated not, tossing a taunt over.

Crack!

The black armor's hate value instantly snapped onto him.

Having hate, Su Sheng let out a breath of relief.

At the same time, the boss's attribute panel appeared.

Magic Armor (Elite Boss)

Level: 83

???

???

???

Description: A suit of magic armor purely driven by demon energy.

Elite Boss, not too bad; although it uses the Fourth Rebirth template and is of the Demon Race, its stats are a notch above regular monsters, plus it has a 10% demon energy suppression state.

But it's still within the Elite Boss range; with Su Sheng present, it should be manageable.

Shield up!

Defensive stance!

Crack!

The armor, filled with black demon energy, swung and struck Su Sheng's shield directly.

-40321

Su Sheng grimaced; over 40,000 damage, which didn't look very high.

But this is the boss's normal attack.

And this is after various damage reductions and with Su Sheng's defensive stance active.

Indeed, the buff strength of Dream Building Little Goose cannot compare to Feng Wu Jiu Tian's Holy Word buff.

So Su Sheng's HP is barely over 200,000 at this point, and besides, the only Holy Light Priest on the field is Dream Building Little Goose.

These five normal attacks could disrupt his attack rhythm; it's obvious Dream Building Little Goose can't heal back the HP.

However, Su Sheng thought it over.

Dismount!

Whoosh—

The boss swung another long sword; this time Su Sheng sidestepped directly.

At the same time, he waved his long spear, unleashing the Fang skill.

Dodge!

Hit!

Rend!

Su Sheng smiled faintly; the Rend effect worked, so the boss's difficulty will drop significantly!

Although the damage from his Fang thrust just now wasn't high.

Su Sheng wasn't disappointed either; as long as he could suppress healing and not fall as the main tank, defeating this boss was merely a matter of time.

Meanwhile, the lion‑like beast beside him was also helping attack.

Thus the boss's hate quickly stabilized on Su Sheng.

"Hate is stable, we can DPS!!"

Su Sheng roared.

Zhu Meng Junjie and Zhu Meng Qingyuan hurriedly flung their skills over, while Ali directly activated a charge and closed in.

Since the Boss's Hate Value isn't on him, as long as he watches for AOE skills, he can still get in close to deal damage.

Thus, the Boss raid battle officially begins!!

Out of mounted state, Su Sheng's movement is extremely agile; for this Boss's attacks, any normal strike mostly misses.

Seeing this, the four members of the Dream Building Squad breathed a sigh of relief, especially Xiao E, since she was the only Priest this time.

Just now, watching the Boss's damage, she didn't think she could provide such high healing; if her healing fell short and caused the Dungeon to fail, Xiao E would surely be upset.

However, Xiao E then stared intently at the Chairman's cloak; as soon as the cloak turned red, her healing would kick in immediately.

After all, when the cloak is black, the healing skill is disabled.

Xiao E, who's teamed with Su Sheng before, naturally knows this.

And with Su Sheng abandoning the orderly stance, even though his Health Axis is lower, his movement lets him dodge most of the Boss's attacks, making the foot‑combat mode preferable.

Of course, the drawback is obvious: his health is thin. If the Boss uses a big skill, it could instantly kill Su Sheng.

But for now it's not a big issue; Su Sheng has two Survival Tactics, so he can't be instantly killed.

However, the raid isn't proceeding smoothly.

Because this Boss's attributes are absurdly high; although it's an Elite Boss, it's at the Fourth Rebirth stage and suppresses everyone else by over ten levels except Su Sheng.

Fortunately, its abnormal resistance isn't very high; even though Magic Snake's venom can't be used, the Deadly Tear Fang combined with Fang Skill can be barely cycled.

During this vacuum period, the Boss's Health Axis can't be held down and slowly rises, given the level gap.

Although the Dream team is outputting hard, even Xiao E finds time to toss Holy Light Orbs, albeit with damage that's just a scrape.

But luckily, the suppression‑healing skill still works, and the Boss's health begins to drop bit by bit.

Watching the raid's pace, Su Sheng feels a bit helpless.

He doesn't know if today's playtime is enough to take down this Boss.

But for now, he can only do his best and leave the rest to fate.

Then, Su Sheng continues to focus on dodging the Boss's attacks…

With everyone working together, the Boss's health finally nears 90%.

The first Health Axis is arriving.

Melee Ali very consciously starts to retreat and create distance.

Su Sheng also happens to chain into a Lion Fang Skill, triggering a Rend effect.

Afterward, the Boss's health smoothly drops to 90%! The Boss's first Health Axis arrives.

The Boss stands silent, its body swathed in black Demon Energy from the magic armor, surging wildly.

At the same time, the long sword in the armor's hand also gains a Demon Energy effect.

Then the sword swings fiercely, slashing down at Su Sheng!

A pure blade aura made of black Demon Energy slides straight down toward Su Sheng.

Su Sheng immediately sidesteps to the right to dodge.

Since it's not a wide AOE but a directional attack, Su Sheng naturally tries to dodge.

But that black blade aura is like a shadow!

Seeing this, Su Sheng understands: the skill has a tracking effect, meaning he can only stand his ground.

And after that blade aura was released, the Boss's Hate Value was cleared; the Health Axis has a hate‑reset mechanism, which most Bosses share, so this was expected.

So Su Sheng must shake off this Health Axis attack even faster!

Seeing the mythic lion on the side, Su Sheng charges forward, flips onto his mount before the black blade aura hits, raises his shield for defense, and executes flawlessly.

When enduring a Health Axis skill, Su Sheng still has to flip onto his mount for safety; otherwise he'd be instantly killed, which would be fun.

After all, without the mythic lion's mount boost, Su Sheng's health isn't very high… Of course, that's Su Sheng's own feeling, and it fits the current situation.

Moreover, Fireworks Blessing and other Survival Tactics have all been thrown into the mix.

At the same time, Su Sheng drinks a Dragon Blood Elixir; the added 1000 constitution may be negligible for other classes, but for Su Sheng it makes a difference.

Attack and defense increase by 1000, health directly gains 10,000; at this point Su Sheng can't be careless—any available tactic should be used.

Boom!

Black blade aura hits!

-190821!!

Su Sheng's health was almost completely drained!

Su Sheng quickly drinks a Blood Bottle and pulls back: "Xiao E, heal!!"

But his hand moves swiftly; at the moment of retreat, a Taunt is tossed onto the Boss's head.

The Boss follows again.

Su Sheng simultaneously calculates the damage; without Fireworks Blessing or a Knight's Will‑type shield, he would have been instantly killed.

But that's normal; the opponent is a Fourth Rebirth‑level Boss.

Right now, as long as the Health Axis doesn't instantly kill him, there's still a chance.

As for Little Frenzy and Final Rage, don't forget Su Sheng also has two Survival Skills.

Even if he can't endure, he can afford one error; as long as he survives both Little and Final Frenzy, the final win will be a feast!!

This is the Easter Egg Quest Boss of the final map, Huangcheng.

But even if he fails, Su Sheng doesn't feel anything; after all, the failure is just the Eagle Sauce Server's.

After a chaotic scramble, the scene finally returns to normal.

The subsequent Health Axis outcomes are roughly the same—almost killing Su Sheng each time—but he props them up with various Survival Tactics.

It's understandable; although this is a Fourth Rebirth Boss of high level, ultimately the cause is Su Sheng and the Dream team over‑leveling too much to run this Dungeon.

That's why I feel this boss is so troublesome, that's all?

But after all, it's still just an Elite Boss, so its mechanics definitely won't be too twisted.

However, when the boss's HP was at 50%, facing that Health Axis Skill, Su Sheng still used a survival opportunity, but this time he didn't lightly use Lion King Stance, instead he triggered Demon Spirit's Form.

Just after triggering Demon Spirit's Form, Su Sheng chose to manually dispel the 60-second Demon Spirit state.

Because under Demon Spirit's Form, Su Sheng could hardly perform normal attacks or use skills, and he still needed to quickly stabilize the boss's aggro.

But after all, he got through the boss's Little Frenzy Health Axis, exchanging one survival skill for a Rage Axis, which was also in the plan.

Soon after, the boss's strategy continued back on track.

However, the Health Axis Skill after the Little Frenzy became an AoE range, but basically there wasn't much change, the damage didn't increase much, not enough to instantly kill Su Sheng.

The only thing to note is the melee output Zhu Meng Ali; he had to very carefully watch the boss's HP bar, narrowly dodging both Health Axis attacks.

But fortunately, after spending some time, he smoothly pushed the boss's HP down to around 10%.

However, at this point only about 40 minutes of game time remained.

"Chairman, will there not be enough time?"

Zhu Meng Junjie watched the boss's HP bar slowly approaching 10%, and couldn't help but speak.

"We should make it in time, let's give it our all!"

Su Sheng frowned and said, "For the final 10% HP, since the opponent is a Fourth Rebirth stage boss, I probably won't be able to trigger the Hunting Skill."

Earlier, when dealing with that Undead Ancient Dragon, Su Sheng had tried.

So, I must take advantage of Lion King Stance to burst out extreme damage.

Su Sheng had already narrowed his eyes, watching the boss's HP!

"Ali! Retreat!!"

Su Sheng unleashed another Deadly Lion Fang, triggering the Rend effect.

The boss's HP was also successfully pressed down to 10%.

Rage Blood Axis!

A huge-range, extremely high-damage AoE.

However, Su Sheng had no resistance, and his HP was directly emptied by the boss's skill.

But at this moment, the good show had just begun.

Armor-breaking Slash!!

Armor Break!!

Eighty percent!!

At the same time, Su Sheng activated all the various Monkey Play buffs he hadn't used before.

Five seconds!!

Su Sheng, relying on the 5 seconds of Lion King Stance and the stacked buffs, directly unleashed a series of extremely violent damage.

The last second!!

Thunderous surge!!

Don't forget, this time the Demon God Lightning skill is available! Last time when dealing with the Undead Ancient Dragon, I used it early to clear the Undead Calamity. But this time in the dungeon, it hasn't entered cooldown!!

Su Sheng's five-second burst, combined with the final Demon God Lightning strike, directly pressed the boss's HP down to 6%!

This is still because the boss's weak point is unknown, so no Weak Point Critical Hit occurred; if it had, the boss's remaining HP might have been instantly killed.

It's just a shame that this thing is just a suit of armor, and we don't know where its weak point is.

Seeing this scene!

Zhu Meng Junjie and the others' eyes lit up! An opportunity!
