Chapter 456: Monster Squad

Five points!

Li Xiao glared, and unwillingly threw the skill book in his hand to Su Sheng.

Heh heh… Su Sheng unceremoniously took it.

Several of the Ten Court Yanluo are from the Assassin branch.

Then everyone continued grinding monsters.

Li Xiao, full of anticipation, wondered whether these green snakes could drop another skill book.

But even after all the green snakes were cleared, none dropped a book.

Li Xiao could only accept his fate.

Next comes the second boss.

A level‑59 Elite Boss!

Hidden‑wing Half‑Jiao!

This thing inherits the green snake's traits, also spews poison, and its toxicity is stronger!

So melee against this boss is almost useless...

The core damage dealers remain Li Wenwan and Huan Yu Houyi.

Health Axis and the like are fairly clear; the only trouble is the 10% berserk.

This guy will forcibly transform into a Jiao and spread its wings!

Then it flies up, indiscriminately ranged‑attacking any target, ignoring Hate Value!

This is a full‑phase attack state triggered at 10% health!

Based on Huan Yu Houyi's previous experience, when the boss hits 10% health, the party should group up.

Su Sheng and Li Xiao focused on the boss's spitting, shielding the three back‑row attacks.

No unexpected events occurred; after expending a lot of effort, the boss was taken down.

The same boss's loot, being the second kill, was pitifully poor.

Mostly green, just like the old one.

But there was one purple item!

Everyone was surprised that there was a purple drop.

After picking it up, they found...

It was another purple skill book, Green Snake Toxin!

Li Xiao finally got his wish.

"Mo Wen Chairman, you don't have to fight me for this one." Li Xiao looked at Su Sheng.

"No, keep rolling the dice." Su Sheng chuckled.

"You already have one." Li Xiao was a bit frustrated.

"This thing's toxin can't be shared; one book can only be used by one person. You know who's under my command." Su Sheng chuckled.

If it were something else we could concede, but this skill can boost the Assassin Guild's strength.

Yan Huang has existed for so long that before the Hidden Dragon fully rose, the main force was still the Old Assassin Alliance… In other words, the Assassin Guild is Yan Huang's main force, so Su Sheng naturally can't give up this skill book.

"How about this: I'll give up the Divine Craftsman Stone for a chance at this dice!" Su Sheng thought it over; wanting both was indeed unfair.

Li Xiao fell silent; he also knew the state of the Assassin Alliance.

After a while, Li Xiao nodded.

"Alright!"

"But this time you go first!" Li Xiao, recalling the dice roll, said to Su Sheng.

"Fine."

Since it was decided, Su Sheng didn't hold back and rolled the dice outright.

Snap~

Six points! Instant kill!

"??!!"

Li Xiao, with a plaintive look, tossed the skill book in his hand to Su Sheng: "Are you sure you haven't opened it?"

"Heh heh, thanks, Deputy President Shen Xiao." Su Sheng grinned as he took the skill book.

The two special toxins can increase the damage of two assassins among the Ten Court Yanluo of the Yan Huang Assassin Team.

"Let's push forward."

Li Xiao said weakly.

From now on, the Dungeon only has the final wave of small monsters and the third boss left.

The last wave of small monsters is also the hardest to deal with.

Dragon‑human Guard. Puppet (Elite Monster)

Level: 59

Attack:??

Defense:??

Health:??

??

??

The Dragon‑human Guard is a humanoid puppet with a dragon head; its limbs are all dragon claws.

The reason it's hard to handle is… these little monsters are organized in formation.

Five people per squad, and each encounter is squad after squad; what's speechless is that the classes are still distinct!

One holds a shield for damage resistance, another wields a great sword for physical output, one does ranged bow damage, another uses a staff for magical damage, and there's also a small captain on horseback.

It's a pity there's no healer, otherwise it would be even more of a headache.

As soon as the fight starts, the big shield puppet pushes forward, and the big sword puppet and cavalry captain Kuku charge ahead.

The bow puppet and magic puppet deal damage from behind Kuku.

Moreover, that cavalry puppet is still in Dominant Body state.

Very exhausting!

Su Sheng also begins to feel pressure, and the perpetually coasting Suanni was hauled out by Su Sheng.

Although it's somewhat difficult, it's not unbeatable.

Yesterday Huan Yu's team had main tank Huan Yu Divine Might, led by Chairman Shen Wang, mission core Shen Xiao, plus healer Huan Yu Nuwa and a Huan Yu Mage Group Leader; the Dungeon Huan Yu Houyi did not show up.

Today, because Li Wenwan is a Mage, a Huan Yu Houyi was added to serve as physical output.

Yesterday Huan Yu's strategy was: Huan Yu Divine Might held the three advancing monsters, Huan Yu Nuwa tended to Huan Yu Divine Might's HP, the Mage output from behind, prioritizing blasting the big sword warrior puppet… its physical output was the highest, but it was relatively fragile.

Shen Wang and Shen Xiao simultaneously surged from the side, each dueling those two puppet mages and puppet archers; after slaying the two ranged puppets, Shen Wang and Shen Xiao turned back to support.

Just follow a similar strategy today.

But it means Su Sheng and Shen Xiao will have to bear some burden.

Because Su Sheng must hold on longer… also Shen Xiao needs to break points, having to kill two ranged ones.

But Su Sheng feels it should be easier… since Li Wenwan adds explosive output, and his own output is also decent; Focus Fire to instantly kill that big sword puppet shouldn't be hard.

Moreover, he can endure more than Huan Yu Divine Might, plus Xiao Jia Huo's Fireworks Blessing, and the new gear's once‑per‑minute invincible Block!

As long as in Combat State, continuous attacks can infinitely stack the number of magic sigils!

Sure enough… as the battle progresses.

Even Shen Xiao couldn't kill that magic puppet, so Su Sheng, together with Li Wenwan and Huan Yu Houyi, directly executed that melee highest‑output big sword puppet.

During this time, Su Sheng must withstand the output of that cavalry captain and the rear bow puppet; as for the shield soldier, ignore it—its damage is horrendous, targeting the defending knight; the only trouble is its Shield Strike can stun, and the stun chance is very high.

But with Huan Yu Nuwa's Purification, the problem isn't big; at the crucial moment Su Sheng also has a Lion Roar dispel that can save the situation.

After killing the big sword puppet, the next target is the cavalry captain.

The cavalry captain is roughly the War Knight class, relatively balanced, with thick health, decent attack, and decent defense.

Only after Su Sheng, together with Li Wenwan and Huan Yu Houyi behind, killed the cavalry captain did Shen Xiao finally kill that Mage.

Then he ran over to kill the archer puppet.

Don't even wait for Shen Xiao to turn back and support; until Su Sheng's side has killed all the big shield puppets, Shen Xiao still hasn't finished.

In the end, it's Su Sheng's side that has to coordinate with Shen Xiao to take on the archer puppet…

"Is it really that powerful, the Hidden Class?" Li Xiao muttered after chopping the bow puppet in front of him.

His tone also carried a hint of expectation...
