Chapter 234: Armor-breaking Slash

No matter what, this guy is just an Elite Boss.

Although the mechanism is a bit disgusting, fortunately it didn't fully trigger the mechanism trap.

Su Sheng, with his exaggerated attributes, plus Huang Mingxin's healing from behind, and his own re‑mounted Fireworks Blessing Shield on the lion‑like creature atop his head.

Holding up against one Boss and two minions is naturally no problem.

The Boss's HP begins to slowly decrease.

But Su Sheng still remains vigilant.

Boss HP is close to ninety percent; the HP Axis Mechanism should trigger soon.

Boss HP, ten percent…

Su Sheng is surprised to find that this Bandit Leader makes no extra moves.

Could it be that ten percent HP is not the HP Axis Mechanism?

Behind, the cautious and vigilant three women are also a bit bewildered.

What the heck? No HP Axis trigger?

Could the HP Axis be at twenty percent?

"Keep outputting, Focus Fire on the Boss; ignore those two minions for now."

Since that's the case, Su Sheng doesn't hold back.

The three women quickly re‑enter the attack range and engage in battle.

Judging by the healing, this Boss's HP should be in the millions.

No wonder the Main City Boss behind has such a thick HP for an Elite Boss.

But that's not a big problem.

Su Sheng and Li Wenwan's Rend and Phoenix Flame alternate almost continuously, suppressing the Boss's healing mechanism throughout.

Under these conditions, the Boss's HP drops very quickly.

Very quickly!

Eighty percent!

But Su Sheng's vigilant HP Axis Mechanism still hasn't triggered.

What the heck?

Su Sheng eyes the two remaining minions, speculating that they are related to those underlings.

"Step it up; since there's no HP Axis mechanism, let's push its HP down to ten percent and see."

Arrows and fire magic, combined with Su Sheng's Long Sword, cause the Boss's HP to swoosh down.

Don't be fooled by how easily the four of them fight; it's because Su Sheng can fully withstand the pressure, and also thanks to Li Wenwan and Su Sheng's abnormal suppression of healing.

Otherwise, under normal circumstances, this Boss would require at least a hundred‑person raid to defeat.

And there are mechanism traps; although Su Sheng doesn't know the specifics, triggering the mechanism is definitely not easy.

HP, seventy… sixty…

Still no special Boss mechanism triggered, but next is fifty percent.

Although the HP Axis Mechanism hasn't triggered so far, at ten percent, it's uncertain whether any special mechanism will activate.

After all, this Boss has such a mechanism trap designed; it can't be said that there's absolutely no HP Axis Mechanism.

Lin Huan, Li Wenwan, and Huang Mingxin, having fought so many Bosses with Su Sheng, naturally have great synergy; the moment the Boss's HP reached fifty percent, they immediately fell back.

Sure enough!

"Damn kid, go die for me!"

Hate Value instantly cleared.

But Lin Huan and the three women have already run far away.

They directly left the Boss's attack range.

Helplessly, the only target the Boss can lock onto is Su Sheng.

The Long Sword in hand erupts with terrifying blade light.

A curved blade light, over two meters long, slashes down fiercely.

Su Sheng blinked (Author: I want this move, so cool.), slightly adjusting the Shield's angle.

This skill is somewhat similar to a Warrior's Rage Slash.

But its power is probably high.

After all, it has been held back so long, only triggering the HP Axis once.

However…

Puff~

The blade light, like an illusion, when it touched Su Sheng's Shield, the expected force and damage did not arrive.

Then the blade light passed straight through Su Sheng and dissipated.

It dealt no damage at all.

Huh?

Tiger head, snake tail?

That's not right, this blade light is so intimidating.

Combat Tip: Hit by the Bandit Leader's Armor-breaking Slash, armor reduced by 80%.

Enter Vulnerable State, damage taken increased by 30%.

Duration: 20 seconds.

I'm going…

Su Sheng saw this, his face darkened slightly.

Alright, armor reduced by eighty percent, fragile damage increased by thirty percent.

In other words, these 20 seconds are equivalent to wearing no armor at all, even more, I actually owe him a bit of defense.

And at that moment, one of the two remaining lackeys instantly turned bright red in the face.

"For the leader, kill!"

Swish~

That ordinary bandit lackey, after a roar, turned into a red streak of light and shadow charging over.

Speed extremely fast, estimated to be comparable to Su Sheng in hunting state.

Boom!

Then the lackey directly slammed into Su Sheng's face and exploded with a boom.

Su Sheng looked bewildered.

-25000

A huge damage jumped out from above Su Sheng's head.

Su Sheng looked at his remaining health of just over a hundred points, bewildered.

Just a little more, and the Phoenix Flame Earring's Pseudo Nirvana Skill would have triggered.

Su Sheng's health was 12020 after Huang Mingxin's buff, close to fifteen thousand.

Plus, Xiao Jia Huo just added a shield of over ten thousand, plus his own condensed knight's resolute shield value and tenacity.

Just enough, he still had a little over a hundred health left.

Aside from the Dragon Scale on the dragon scale shield, basically all survival skills were used; originally he thought his defense plus health would still leave over ten thousand shield value.

This fifty percent HP Axis Mechanism burst should not be able to instantly kill me, right?

Heaven knows, this guy actually pulled such a move.

These lackeys are actually meant for self-destruction…

Su Sheng was speechless, then combined with the Bandit Leader Boss's Armor-breaking Slash.

Such horrifying damage.

No, there's still one lackey left.

Su Sheng quickly looked at the remaining lackey; fortunately, he didn't go crazy and charge over to self-destruct.

"Hahaha, good! As expected of my brother, rest assured I'll definitely kill this guy and avenge you!" the Bandit Leader Boss laughed loudly.

Su Sheng curled his lips, glanced at that last lackey.

With still fifty percent health, that lackey is probably also meant for self-destruction.

Or maybe just clear him out?

Su Sheng hesitated a bit.

Good grief, a month has a few hundred copper plates? What are you playing with your life for.

Swish~

Healing Technique, continuous healing, Holy Healing Technique…

Healing Technique!

A bunch of healing skills instantly landed on Su Sheng.

Huang Mingxin saw Su Sheng's low health, immediately rushed into casting range, and dumped her own healing technique and the healing from her staff weapon onto Su Sheng.

Especially the Holy Healing Technique from the 40th-level job change to Holy Light Priest, which instantly greatly raised Su Sheng's health bar.

The healing amount also counts toward contribution value.

And don't forget, the Boss's hate value is currently cleared.

So, Huang Mingxin threw out a bunch of healing techniques.

The Bandit Leader Boss's hate value instantly locked onto Huang Mingxin…
