Chapter 417: The Formidable Pseudo Commander-level

416 Chapter The Formidable Pseudo Commander-level

Boom—

Whoosh~

At this moment, everyone's attacks arrived one after another.

Boom—

The Flame Guard's shield in hand barely trembled, yet it burst with a swath of earth‑yellow light, making the shield appear to have doubled in size.

It directly blocked all frontal attacks.

Undoubtedly…

Everyone's attacks did not deal much damage.

Meanwhile…

Healing jumped.

"…"

Everyone fell silent.

The earlier healing already completely exceeded the damage from everyone's Focus Fire.

And… that healing just now was off.

"That's the sum of the Earth Shield Guard's and Crimson Lotus Warrior's healing…" Bai Pangpang said blankly.

The Pseudo Commander-level BOSS, although its stats far surpass the Elite Boss, still has its healing calculated as an Elite BOSS.

Therefore, the Flame Guard's healing at this moment is also calculated as an Elite BOSS.

But this burst of healing reached the sum of the Earth Shield Guard's and Crimson Lotus Warrior's healing…

Alright…

It seems that this Flame Guard only has ten percent of its health remaining, but that amount equals the combined ten percent remaining of the Earth Shield Guard and Crimson Lotus Warrior, and its total health cap is also the sum of theirs.

Hence, under the premise of Elite BOSS healing, it can restore so much health in one go.

Swish~

At the same time, two cold flashes lit up behind the Flame Guard.

Chen Guan and Shen Yang! The two slipped behind the BOSS and struck simultaneously.

Although the two's stealth is virtually nonexistent to the BOSS… exceeding ten levels, the BOSS's Hate Value is being held by Su Sheng.

As long as the BOSS doesn't turn around to detect their Invisibility, they will have damage that breaks invisibility.

Puff—

The two's successive combo attacks, combined with weak‑spot judgment damage, barely reduced the freshly restored health.

Swish~

At this moment, the greatsword in the Flame Guard's hand ignited with flames.

The greatsword traced a fiery red arc, slashing down toward Su Sheng.

Defensive Stance!

Shield Raise, Block!

Falling Demon Body re‑activate!

Boom—

-8897!

One slash, eight thousand!

Su Sheng twisted his brow.

He only has just over forty thousand health remaining, plus mount bonus and Priest bonus.

That means… this thing can kill him with five slashes.

And it's still while in the Falling Demon Body state.

But a level‑60 Pseudo Commander-level… isn't unreasonable; Su Sheng is only level 48, a twelve‑level gap.

"Keep dealing damage!"

"Priest, raise health!"

Fortunately, this time there are two Priests; Su Sheng's own Taunt skill, combined with his damage, keeps the Hate Value almost fixed on Su Sheng.

The others output as hard as they can, not worrying about overtime at all.

Bai Pangpang and Huang Mingxin, the two Priests, used various healing methods, taking turns tossing health onto Su Sheng.

However, the coordination between the two seems a bit chaotic.

After Su Sheng activated the Falling Demon Body, one Healing Technique from Bai Pangpang fell, and Bai was left stunned…

Su Sheng was a bit helpless about this, but fortunately the Fireworks Blessing of the Suan Ni just turned around, promptly applying a Fireworks Blessing that offset Bai Pangpang's mistake.

The two Priests' Healing Techniques, continuous healing, require Su Sheng's Falling Demon Body to be properly coordinated.

Otherwise, he can't hold up!

Li Wenwan got lucky, triggering the Phoenix Flame effect, suppressing the BOSS's healing.

Everyone immediately took the opportunity to deal damage.

But only for five seconds.

It seems the Flame Guard's fire resistance is high, and later it hardly triggered the Phoenix Flame state.

The group almost gave their all, barely matching the BOSS's healing.

To suppress health, they can only rely on special states.

But immediately after, Huang Mingxin tossed another quick continuous healing; Su Sheng's Falling Demon Body hadn't ended, so the continuous healing was applied, and the skill failed outright.

Numb...

Smoke Swirl!

Su Sheng can only attempt to have the suanni under control; the Prison Cage Talisman's CD isn't ready yet.

But this Pseudo Commander-level BOSS's Control Resistance is too high; a five‑second Stasis only lasted about 1.8 seconds.

"A‑Sheng! I'll resist for a bit!"

At this moment Wu Zhaodi appears before Su Sheng and raises the Tower Shield.

Taunt!

The Guard Knight's Taunt skill greatly amplifies Hate Value aggro control; just one Taunt almost pulled the aggro to Wu Zhaodi, and immediately a Heroic Strike with a similar aggro‑pull effect took the Boss's Hate Value.

Boom!

One slash!

-12371!

One slash close to 12,000!

That means the Boss only needs three slashes to cleave the 30,000‑HP Wu Zhaodi!

Wu Zhaodi's current stats are basically top‑tier main‑tank level so far.

She can only tank two slashes; the third will be fatal!

Swish~

Another slash!

-12299!

Two slashes and Wu Zhaodi is left on low HP!

"Pull back!"

Su Sheng rushes forward again: Awakening Lion Charge! Lion's Claw! Taunt + Heroic Strike!

Just barely pulls the Boss's Hate Value back, and the Boss's third slash swings at Su Sheng!

Fang!

Facing the blazing blade light, Su Sheng single‑handedly raises his Shield while slashing diagonally with the other hand!

The same Fiery Guard raises his Shield to Block, the blade cutting down from the side.

Puff~

-13033!

Unexpectedly for Su Sheng, this thrust pierces the Fiery Guard's Shield, embedding and dealing over ten thousand damage.

At the same time, Rend activates!

-50

-50

"Quick! Damage!"

Su Sheng's eyes brighten; he glances at the combat hint: Divine Thunder Magic Light Break Effect!

The Break Effect triggers, actually piercing that Shield!

Right, that Shield isn't a real piece of armor; it's a condensed spell.

So… the Break chance isn't that low, why did it take so long to trigger just once?!

But right after that, Su Sheng's brows twitched slightly; since that's the case… the probability of breaking the formation isn't that low, so why did it take so long to trigger just once?!

Let's hurry and hit the BOSS!

After a tense raid, the BOSS's HP drops to 6%!

After a tense raid battle, the final boss's health fell to 6%!

Su Sheng quickly reminds them.

Having learned from the previous Yin Yang Earth-walking Dragon, Su Sheng naturally wonders whether this Fiery Guard's 5% HP has a Health Axis Mechanism.

Having learned the lesson from the previous Yin Yang Earth-walking Dragon, Su Sheng naturally had to watch whether this Hellfire Guard's 5% health would trigger an HP Axis Mechanism.

Coincidentally, Li Wenwan's ultimate erupts, triggering Phoenix Flame!

"Seize the time to damage!"

Without Su Sheng's reminder, everyone instantly starts spamming damage.

"When HP reaches 5%, you all run out, no lingering!"

"When health reaches 5%, you all leave immediately, don't linger!"

But the group merely nods; escaping the tomb isn't new.

But everyone gave a slight nod; escaping from the tomb wasn't the first time they'd done it.

-9791!

At that moment, a damage spike jumps out from the BOSS's head!

Instantaneously, HP drops!

It's Chen Guan!

A single finishing move pierces that much HP! And it's a back‑hit, too—just a shame there was no critical!

A single finishing strike ripped out that much blood! And it was a backstab, too—just a shame there was no critical hit!

"Dad!" Su Sheng doesn't even turn his head.

Prison Cage Talisman!

Snap~

Snap—

The earth‑colored shroud trapped the Burning Guard right in the center.

Immediately after, the others no longer needed to greet anyone and, in a flash, ran straight out of the tomb chamber.
