Chapter 222: Ogre

That figure stood nearly three meters tall, wielding a bone from an unknown animal, its body covered in bulging muscles, both robust and twisted.

An ugly face, sharp teeth, drooling thick saliva as it stared at Su Sheng and the other three.

This image…

Ogre…

Su Sheng frowned; the final BOSS was an ogre, and judging by the surrounding skeletons, the one that devoured the Dwarves of its own kind must be this ogre BOSS.

"Spawn the monster, it should be the final BOSS; after defeating this BOSS your mission should be complete," Su Sheng said, sword and shield in hand.

Taunt!

Fallen Ogre (Elite Boss)

Level: 44

Attack: 1888

Defense: 1999

HP: 777777

Skills: Heavy Strike, Consecutive Heavy Strike, Super Heavy Strike, Earth Splitting Strike.

Description:....

"???" Su Sheng stared at the ogre BOSS's stats, completely baffled, wondering why it seemed so unserious.

"Food!"

Regardless of its seriousness, the ogre's massive bone club roared and slammed down.

Defensive Stance! Shield Raise!

Swish~

Fireworks Blessing!

Tens of thousands of white shield points instantly covered Su Sheng's health bar.

Bang~

Su Sheng trembled all over!

The Defensive Stance shattered outright! He stepped back a pace.

-567!

Of course it was damage to the white shield points!

Damn!

Su Sheng looked at the combat prompt.

Heavy Strike!

Whoosh~

At this moment the ogre's club swept across, accompanied by a sound that tore the wind; one must admit Teng Long Company's technology, even the air pressure felt incredibly realistic.

Shield Raise! The Defensive Stance wasn't ready, so Su Sheng performed a simple Block.

Bang!

-711

Got it! Same result again!

He glanced at the combat prompt, still Heavy Strike.

Fine, you're the BOSS, you're impressive.

It seems this ogre's normal attacks are all Heavy Strikes; that Heavy Strike counts as both a skill and a normal attack, no wonder each hit breaks defense, even though the ogre's attack isn't higher than its own defense.

However, looking at the massive bone club in the ogre's hand—nearly two meters long—it looks unwieldy, yet in the ogre's grip it whirls like a tiger, so each swing being a Heavy Strike makes sense.

But it's not a big issue; each of the ogre's hits merely strips away a layer of shield.

One hit doesn't even reach a thousand; the shield value supplied by the mythic lion is well over ten thousand, and it will take a while for him to chop it down.

The only frustration is that you can't dodge; each Heavy Strike almost always includes a knock‑back "soft‑control" effect, which is very irritating.

It's not that Su Sheng lacks skill, but his Agility is insufficient; the ogre's massive size and the weapon's wide attack range make it impossible for Su Sheng, despite his techniques, to evade.

Without activating Lion Hunt stance, Su Sheng's Agility is only 71 points: shoes grant 50 Agility, Cloak of Invisibility adds 20, and his own base gives a bit, totaling 71.

If a knight can't ride a mount, the class itself is clumsy.

It's unclear what later phases hold; whether the ogre will have other tactics, keeping Lion Hunt as a Bottom Card is wiser, since this ogre BOSS can't be dealt with yet.

Then let's have a real man's head‑on clash!

Since he can't dodge, Su Sheng simply stops dodging and takes the damage, brawling with the ogre.

War Rhythm! Activate!

Lion's Claw!

Restraining Blade!

Meanwhile, the Zhu Meng trio behind them—Mage Zhu Meng Junjie, Fangshi Qingyuan, and Priest Xiao E—also provided ranged support.

Su Sheng and the ogre stood in place, trading blows, occasionally triggering a Rend that suppressed the ogre's regeneration, and with Zhu Meng Junjie's output as a senior mage behind them, it wasn't lacking.

The ogre BOSS's HP began to drop steadily.

HP, ninety percent!

"Ogre, I'll smash you into a meat patty!! Then eat you!"

The ogre BOSS let out a roar, wildly hammering Su Sheng with its massive bone club.

Boom Boom Boom~

Su Sheng gloomily realized he couldn't move.

-778

-891

-871

-691

With each blow from the troll, Su Sheng was in a staggered, off‑balance state, able only to lurch backward.

The knock‑back effect is not a forced control; it's like floating, a soft control, and even using Lion Roar cannot instantly restore balance.

The troll swung the club rapidly, strike after strike; before Su Sheng's body could regain balance, another hit came, and he kept lurching backward.

So this is the continuous heavy hits, right…

Su Sheng felt helpless, unable to resist, so he thought, "Fine, enjoy it."

Thus Su Sheng watched the huge bone club in front of him hammering him again and again.

Of course, a flurry of moves—fierce as a tiger!

The troll Boss swung his weapon rapidly about thirteen or fourteen times in one breath, blasting Su Sheng back nearly fifteen yards.

Hmm… that just broke the Suanni's Fireworks Blessing Shield.

Su Sheng's health…still full…

During the 30‑second vacuum, Su Sheng's health was indeed knocked down a bit.

After the 30 seconds passed, the little Xiao Jia Huo perched on Su Sheng's head yawned lazily, raising a claw.

A brand‑new shield instantly enveloped Su Sheng.

Then, while the shield lasted, Su Sheng's health was refilled by Zhu Meng Xiao E.

Su Sheng even felt tired on behalf of the troll.

"Everyone, keep pushing…" Su Sheng yawned.

…

Eighty percent…

Boom boom boom…

Seventy…

Boom boom boom…

Until the troll Boss's health reached fifty percent.

The troll finally switched tactics.

"Troll, I'm going to eat you!"

The troll Boss swung the massive bone club at extreme speed, and this time the club even shimmered with light.

That strike wasn't simple; it must be the super heavy hit.

Su Sheng glanced; the Suanni's little Xiao Jia Huo shield still had over seven thousand left.

Just to be safe, let's respect the troll's elite Boss template.

The knight's resolve!

The shield gained another layer of thickness.

At the same time, Su Sheng, holding his Shield, stepped into a bow stance and performed a Shield Raise,

Defensive Stance—though it might be shattered by a club, out of habit Su Sheng instinctively activated it.

Boom!

Sure enough!

The moment the Dragon Scale Shield contacted the troll's massive bone club,

Su Sheng himself was jolted, then flung sideways.

He then rolled on the ground twice.

"Peh peh~"

Although prepared in advance, he still couldn't block it.

Su Sheng glanced at the combat prompt.

Combat Prompt: Hit by Fallen Troll Super Heavy Attack.

Damage taken -8971.

Entered unbalanced state!

Whoa~

Not bad, a single club cracked open the remaining Suanni shield.

Too bad, that was the only time.

Seeing that, Su Sheng felt the troll Boss's fifty‑percent Health Axis burst was less than a single continuous heavy hit.

But the downside is, it's Su Sheng.

Swap in another player, and they probably couldn't endure the continuous heavy hits.

A carp tried to rise… got embarrassed… armor was too heavy.

Su Sheng honestly got up, then performed a Shield Rush… Shield Strike… and kept hitting the Boss.

After the troll Boss's fifty‑percent Health Axis "single axe" move, the raid rhythm returned to its previous pace.

The troll Boss's health continued to drop.
