Chapter 1289: The Most Needed…

8 seconds!

The Boss is at 8% health; this kind of team‑fight boss health isn't ordinary!

Especially now, the melee players' formation has been completely disrupted.

To empty this Boss's HP within 8 seconds would require a miracle.

And itself, in the eyes of the Golden Flower Princess.

Su Sheng being able to block the Boss's charge is already one miracle; how can there be so many miracles?

But even so, she is unwilling to give up and must struggle a bit more.

Swish swish swish~

The ranged players on the city wall all act, a barrage of attacks pouring down continuously.

Moreover, the Boss itself is selfish and also losing HP, so the Boss's health drops quite quickly.

This gave everyone a glimmer of hope.

And Su Sheng…

has never believed in miracles.

8 seconds!

He can only gamble now, hoping the goddess of luck is on his side.

Swish~

His spear in hand suddenly vanished, turning into a light long sword, which he swung…

Su Sheng couldn't help but furrow his brows; something felt off, and then he suddenly realized.

Swish~

The wrist guard also disappeared.

Black Rock. The Refined Steel Arm Guard's passive reduces attack speed by 5%; when using a spear, with Su Sheng's skill, that 5% is essentially negligible.

But now, Su Sheng is after speed!

Su Sheng needs to deliver as many attacks as possible within 8 seconds, thereby increasing the judgment count of the Hunting Skill.

However, Su Sheng knows deep down.

Facing a Commander-level Boss, the chance of triggering the Execution Skill: Hunting judgment within 8 seconds is pitifully low.

But it has to be tried…

If it succeeds, the crisis of the wall explosion is averted, and his newly‑leveled 85‑level skill trial can also clear another segment.

Swish swish~

He opens with a Heroic Strike double, and his long sword, still energized, follows with another double.

Four swords per second!

Add a Shield Strike!

In total, five attack judgments per second!

Although the damage is rather weak, Su Sheng isn't after damage! He wants frequency!!

Unfortunately, even though Su Sheng is a Hidden Class, he cannot dual‑wield; the off‑hand must be a Shield, or else he must make the Boss witness what a ten‑sword per second attack looks like!

Back in the days of the heroes, Su Sheng still recalls his best record with both arms was twenty attack judgments per second! Of course, he was then an assassin… combining skill effects and softened attack angles, mainly the dagger's reach, made it possible.

But now, Lion Hunt is active; although not an agility class, its terrifying agility stats still dominate attack speed… so Su Sheng's long sword feels exceptionally smooth!

Heroic Strike double is on cooldown, yet Su Sheng can still manage three swords per second, and with good combos can add another, reaching four swords per second!

But… not enough, far from enough.

One second

Two seconds

…

Five seconds

Six seconds

Seven seconds

Final second!

The Boss still has the last 3% of HP, and Su Sheng's unstoppable state has vanished!

Huh—

Su Sheng is shoved off balance, stumbling hard to the side.

Meanwhile, the Boss, with boundless momentum, continues to slam into the wall.

During these 8 seconds, Su Sheng's attack frequency was extremely high, yet he still didn't trigger the Execution Skill: Hunting's final judgment; although he was prepared, some disappointment remained.

But Su Sheng knows in his heart that this is entirely reasonable. How could a Commander-level Boss be so easily subject to a final judgment?

But just watching the Northern Players' wall being shattered?

That's a bit indefensible…

After all, he really does have a way!

His body is still out of control; the vanished wrist guard reappears on his wrist, and his long sword transforms back into a spear.

Falling Demon Body, Lion's Fury, all are active.

Then…

War Rhythm!

Go!

Red Flame Lion, open!

Divine Dragon Sight, open!

Bursting Halo, open!

Shield Triumph… open!!

Open!

Open!

Open!!

(Eight Gates Open! Night Kai~! Recently looking at Naruto archaeology. jpg)

Apart from the triggered Lion King Stance, all other buffs that could be activated have already been activated, although it's only the second siege wave and we've already used our bottom card…

But we really can't just stand by and watch the BOSS smash the Beibang players' city wall like that.

Zap~

Thunder Light dances on the long spear!

Demon God Lightning!!

The gorgeous thunderbolt shot out within half a second. After the thunderbolt was flung, Su Sheng's figure finally steadied.

Thunder Light instantly obscured the BOSS's figure…

Everyone widened their eyes, looking into the Thunder Light… could it kill it?!

But Su Sheng's mouth corner couldn't help but twitch.

Damn… this is definitely intentional!

Mission:

Regular units: 404/1000

Boss units: 1/3

Indeed… triggered, Su Sheng unleashed a burst using the bottom card. According to Su Sheng's calculations, the BOSS's remaining HP could be outright killed by pure damage, without letting the BOSS smash the Beibang players' city wall.

Result… I don't know if the damage could kill Su Song, but anyway the BOSS was judged slain by the Execution Skill: Hunting.

What the hell…

…

Thunder Light faded.

Where the BOSS stood, only two red rays remained, especially dazzling.

Killed it!

Golden Flower Princess widened her eyes, full of delight, her gaze locked onto Su Sheng, light sparkling in her eyes…

This man…

Created another miracle!!

If Su Sheng knew Golden Flower Princess's thoughts, he'd surely complain, where do all these miracles come from? He's just being played by this mechanism.

However… a Commander-level Boss, two red rays as loot, plus a pile of Gold Coins, and one purple, one blue, one green…

The loot is pretty rich, so I'll forgive you.

Su Sheng then walked over to the loot's location…

Although everyone present had basically participated in the assault, Su Sheng shamelessly went to pick up the loot…

Nobody on the scene spoke.

Su Sheng had the qualifications…

Anyway, without Su Sheng's heavy injuries and subsequent turnaround, they couldn't have taken down this boss.

Then… Su Sheng looked at the loot and couldn't help but break into a smile.

Well…

Satisfied!

Great Dao Fragment (Red)

Components: 28

…

Great Dao Fragment (Red)

Components: 30

…

Although the two red rays aren't any equipment, they are exactly what Su Sheng needs most…

Of course…

Su Sheng can't just take it himself, otherwise he'd expose his need for these fragments; his every move is being watched by many, and if he reveals this need, later if someone else has the fragments, it'll be hard to get them.

Thus, Su Sheng instinctively thought to get Huan Jie to step forward…
