Kill one monster, stack one poison, and I alone will poison my way across the world!

The 270 million poison damage, with the legendary BOSS's terrifying 220,000 stamina, only shaved off a thin layer of health.

however.

The excruciating pain clearly enraged the monster pieced together from countless severed limbs.

"roar--!"

Chimera Zero let out a deafening roar, and its thick, pillar-like forelimbs swung violently.

It was just a casual strike.

"boom!"

A visible ripple of green energy, like a materialized blade, swept forward with overwhelming force.

Wherever the energy ripples passed, the air emitted a piercing shriek, and the stone slabs on the ground were torn apart and crushed.

"Click-clack—"

The densely packed corrosive serpents along the way couldn't even withstand it for half a second, shattering into pieces like paper.

More than 10,000 snake guards were cleared out, with nearly half of them gone in the blink of an eye.

Su Chen's eyelids twitched violently.

Holy crap... this is a bit too much of a supermodel look, isn't it?

With a single strike, it wiped out thousands of snake guards. At this speed, it only needs to spin around in place and then deliver two more 360-degree sweeping strikes, and all 20,000 of my snake guards will be finished.

However, Su Chen was not flustered.

He raised the Thunder Touch in his hand and slammed it heavily onto the ground.

"Buzz—"

His mana was instantly depleted, and a ring of gray-green light rippled outwards from him.

[Hint: Unleash the skill "Corrosive Serpent Guard".]

The ground churned and rolled, accompanied by a teeth-grinding scraping sound, and the previously empty area was once again filled with a dense swarm of snake guards.

After upgrading the skill to level 2, his Corrosive Serpent Guard cooldown is now only 10 seconds!

As long as he doesn't die, the snake guards can keep spreading out.

Clearly, Zero also discovered that this disgusting human was the culprit.

Its pus-filled eyes locked onto Su Chen, and then its massive body leaped into the air.

A huge shadow instantly enveloped Su Chen.

Jumping slash!

The bone-spiky forelimbs, carrying terrifying kinetic energy, tore through the air and slammed straight down towards Su Chen's head.

"Depend on!"

Su Chen cursed under his breath, and with a thought, dozens of snake guards around him instantly twisted and intertwined, forming a simple shield above his head.

"Bang!"

Unsurprisingly, the defensive line formed by the snake guards shattered instantly before the absolute power of the legendary BOSS, like fragile glass.

The bone spur, still powerful, struck Su Chen squarely on the shoulder.

"Su Chen!"

The falcon, hidden in the distance, suddenly narrowed its eyes and let out a heart-wrenching roar.

The grizzly bear, the eagle, and the snake were also ice-cold, and an uncontrollable despair welled up in their hearts.

Finished!

That's a legendary level 80 boss!

Even a grizzly bear would die on the spot if it were hit so hard, let alone Su Chen, who is only a level 27 mage!

Su Chen is the future of Dahua. If he dies here, the entire team would be held responsible even if they were to die a thousand deaths!

"Eagle, cover! Viper, prepare for rescue, I'll draw aggro!"

Falcon's eyes instantly became bloodshot, and he was about to break his stealth and charge forward to fight to the death.

However, the next second.

[Hint: Triggering the passive effect of the equipment "Thousand Calamities Bone Necklace" - Calamity Resistance.]

[Calamity Resistance: Each time the wearer receives a single instance of damage, up to 30% of their maximum health will be deducted.]

……

The fatal blow that should have depleted Su Chen's health bar only reduced it by 30%.

"hiss--"

Su Chen gasped, and using the immense force of the attack, he quickly retreated.

That really hurts!

Without the Thousand Calamity Bone Heart Necklace, even with the Gargoyle Necklace activated and its 99% damage reduction, I'd probably still be covered in bruises!

While mentally ranting, he quickly shoved a bottle of high-level life recovery potion into his mouth.

The health bar began to slowly recover.

At the same time, Falcon, who was about to rush out, abruptly stopped in his tracks, momentarily doubting his own eyes.

"Did it...hold on?"

A level 27 mage withstood the leaping attack of a level 80 legendary BOSS and only lost less than a third of his health.

What kind of invincible defensive equipment is this?!

But Zero clearly wasn't going to give Su Chen a chance to catch his breath.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Its massive body rolled over like a road roller, its huge bone spikes swinging back and forth.

Under the absolute suppression of level and attributes, Su Chen's pitiful agility also seemed inadequate.

He was chased all over the altar, and didn't even have time to stop and unleash "Ten Thousand Poisons Explosion".

During this time, he made a slight mistake in his positioning and was stabbed twice more.

With his health bar about to run out, he was even forced to use his invulnerability skill to barely survive.

To outsiders, Su Chen looked utterly pathetic at this moment, like a mouse being toyed with by a cat.

But the falcon, hidden in the shadows and staring intently at the battlefield, suddenly sensed something was amiss.

"Wait... what's that monster doing..."

The falcon squinted.

Zero's movements were lightning fast, and his massive body could even leave afterimages when he moved.

But now, its movements have become noticeably slower.

The movements of wielding the bone spikes were still fast, but the speed of movement seemed to have been slowed down by a factor of two, and even turning around seemed incredibly heavy.

Time passed second by second.

Five seconds later.

"Thump!"

Zero's foot landed heavily on the ground.

Then, it seemed to be nailed to the spot, unable to take another step forward.

Its massive body was still heaving violently, its eyes filled with rage and bewilderment, but its lower body was as heavy as lead, stuck firmly to the ground.

"What's wrong? Why isn't it moving?"

The eagle opened its mouth wide in shock.

"It's a deceleration effect..."

Viper's tone was filled with disbelief, "But this is an 80-level legendary boss with extremely high resistance. What kind of slowing skill could freeze it in place?"

Not far away, Su Chen looked at the Chimera Beast standing there like a sculpture and a smile appeared on his lips.

[Trait 4 - Slowing Poisonous Miasma: Any enemy infected with the [Violent] status has their movement speed reduced by 20%. The slowing effect stacks by an additional 20% for every second the poison persists, up to a maximum of 100%.]

……

When farming monsters and running dungeons, you can usually kill them instantly at the start, so this feature is completely useless.

But now.

Faced with such a legendary BOSS with high HP and defense, this passive skill that forces a slow down finally reveals its ferocious fangs.

Forced to stand as punishment, how does that feel?

Zero was clearly aware of his situation.

It struggled frantically, its upper body twisting violently, its bone spurs wildly slashing at the surrounding air and snake guards, emitting futile sonic booms.

But no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't move forward an inch.

This feeling of being imprisoned by an unknown force completely ignited the legendary BOSS's rage.

"Roar!!!"

Zero suddenly raised its head, and the contorted faces on its chest simultaneously emitted a piercing scream.

The surrounding air began to distort violently, and a nauseating green energy gathered wildly around its massive body.

[Hint: The target is casting the skill "Psionic Ripple"!]
