Chapter 153: Blackened!

"What's the reason?"

Everyone looked at Su Sheng, puzzled.

"\"Look. \" Su Sheng pointed toward the woods over there.

As they looked in the direction Su Sheng pointed, they saw that in the area where ordinary forest monkeys usually were, some of the ordinary monkeys' corpses had not yet respawned.

Everyone froze, and then they all thought of something.

"\"Life sharing? \""

Chen Guan murmured softly.

Su Sheng nodded: "\"That spot isn't where the brothers were grinding monsters. \""

Because a boss had spawned in the middle, the Assassin Alliance brothers scattered around to clear monsters while staying on guard.

"\"We didn't kill those ordinary monkeys either, so there's only one possibility: the damage we dealt to the boss was distributed onto those ordinary monkeys. \""

"\"So it looks like this guy never loses HP. \" Su Sheng laughed as he analyzed.

"\"I actually thought such a weak boss had an immortal body. \""

Zhou Qiqi complained on the side.

"\"Now that we know its mechanic, it's easy to handle. \""

"\"I'll take him on alone; you bring the Assassin Alliance brothers to clear the ordinary monkeys around him, those following the Monkey King—they should be companion monsters, not wild monsters that spawn outside. \""

"\"As long as we clear those companion monsters, this pretentious Monkey King will be a toothless tiger. \""

"\"Alright, let's do it as you said, Brother Sheng. \" Chen Guan clapped his hands.

"\"Brothers, gather! \""

Afterward, Chen Guan began calling the Assassin Alliance brothers.

Shield Rush!

Su Sheng charged at the Monkey King again.

Boom!

-1172

Shield Strike!

-2001

Dizziness!

Su Sheng grinned, finding it interesting.

Deadly Lion Fang!

"\"Hit, eyes! \""

Weak Point Critical Hit!

-17920

-896 (Trauma)

Rend triggered!

Squeak!!

With Su Sheng's burst of attacks, the Monkey King's HP bar remained unmoved.

But one of the monkeys that had been leisurely following the Monkey King let out a miserable scream and collapsed directly,

As expected.

Seeing this, Su Sheng smiled faintly.

"\"Roar! \""

At that moment, the Monkey King recovered from the dizziness, let out an angry roar, and swung his arm at Su Sheng.

Squeak~

At the same time, the ordinary monkeys that had been following the Monkey King scattered, fleeing into the surrounding woods and started throwing stones at Su Sheng.

Su Sheng raised his shield, and it was effortless.

Next, the Huacui Squad and the Assassin Alliance members who had gathered began attacking those companion monkeys.

Squeak~

For a moment, everywhere was filled with the monkeys' miserable cries.

And the Monkey King's companion monsters were under attack.

The Monkey King instinctively wanted to turn his head to help.

But Su Sheng followed up with Taunt, Binding Blade, Fang!

Another combo was unleashed.

It directly dragged the Monkey King's hatred back, firmly.

Although the Monkey King didn't lose HP, the damage dealt to him was real.

"\"Brother Sheng is right, these monkeys are indeed companion monsters; killing them gives no experience! \""

Chen Guan stabbed a monkey in front of him to death with a dagger and shouted,

"\"How could normal wild monsters out in the field have no experience? \""

"\"Only the companion monsters of a certain monster yield no experience after being killed. \""

"\"Hehe, after clearing these companion monsters, this Monkey King will be easy to deal with. \""

Su Sheng was also continuously dealing damage.

Anyway, the damage I deal to the Monkey King not only pulls hatred but can also be transferred to those ordinary monkeys, speeding up the clearing of those companion monsters.

The Monkey King has many companion monsters; their stats are about the same as ordinary monkeys, and they look no different outwardly—except that killing them yields no drops or experience.

About three to four hundred spawn monsters were all cleared out in roughly 40 minutes.

Su Sheng habitually thrust forward with a sword Fang.

-3867!

Weak Point Damage, no crit.

-307!

Guard captain's sword, wound.

Although this wound effect only accounts for five to eight percent of the damage dealt.

However, Su Sheng felt the trigger probability was quite high; little by little, the damage was also quite considerable.

After one sword strike with no crit, Su Sheng felt a bit disappointed.

But right after, Su Sheng glared, and the Monkey King lost HP?

Looking up again, he saw that the Assassin Alliance brothers had all relaxed, and those spawn monsters had been completely cleared.

"Hehe, let's see how you act tough now." Su Sheng laughed, holding shield and sword, staring at the Monkey King before him.

Perhaps it was in response to Su Sheng's words.

The Monkey King turned his head and saw that all the surrounding monkeys and their offspring were already dead.

"Hou hou!" The Monkey King roared skyward, his hands pounding his chest like a mad gorilla... but it was clearly a monkey, even if it was the Monkey King.

Accompanying the Monkey King's movements, strands of black aura began to mysteriously emerge from his body.

Su Sheng glared, "My god, is it also getting darkened?"

Hou!

Indeed!

After a roar, the Monkey King, originally about two meters tall, instantly swelled to nearly double its size.

At the same time, black aura swirled around its body.

Demon Energy!

Its elongated arms swung toward Su Sheng in a double-peak-over-the-ears posture.

The momentum was tremendous.

Su Sheng hastily retreated.

Unfortunately, his speed was still a step too slow.

Boom!

After darkening, the Monkey King's fists fiercely converged on the spot before Su Sheng.

A ring of black aura instantly burst outward!

Su Sheng staggered backward.

-1171

Su Sheng's HP dropped sharply.

Su Sheng couldn't help but stare in shock, "What the heck?"

At first, the Monkey King couldn't break defense and only gave himself a tickle, but merely the recoil from its fist collision took over a thousand of his HP.

Is the darkening power really this strong?

Only then did he notice the Monkey King's stats had changed.

Demonic transformation. Jungle Monkey King (Elite Boss)

Level: 40

Attack:??

Defense:??

HP:??

Skills:??

Description: omitted

The originally weak Normal Boss unexpectedly turned into an Elite Boss, reaching level 40 with all stats unknown.

Su Sheng grimaced, "Can I darken myself too?"

Then Su Sheng felt his vision darken.

"?? Hmm?"

What the hell!

Look up!

I fuck!

Although confident in his own stats, and besides the Phoenix Flame Earring's life-saving effect, Su Sheng's heart was still filled with a sense of crisis.

Lion Hunt!

Hunting stance!

Agility instantly synchronized offense-defense balance values!

No good!

Still not fast enough!

Fall back!

Lock onto Chen Guan!

Shield Rush!

The Shield Rush skill just finished cooldown.

Swish~

Su Sheng instantly turned into a phantom and left the spot.

Chen Guan glared, "Don't come over!"

Bang!

-1078!

A damage number appeared above Chen Guan's head, his HP instantly dropped by more than half; thanks to his decent equipment, and also because the Shield Rush skill's percentage is low.

Otherwise, Chen Guan might have been instantly killed by Su Sheng.

Boom!!!

At that moment, the spot where Su Sheng had been burst with an explosion.
