Absolute Destiny Game-Chapter 429 - 44 Jiao Walking Skill

Watching the giant Monster Jiao that was over 10 meters long, Xiao Jie was shocked, not expecting that this creature could actually undergo super-evolution.

Not only did its body swell up to more than a dozen times its original size like a balloon, but its level had also increased along with it.

This reminded him of the Ancient Evil Corpse he had encountered in the Ancient Tomb.

Similarly, after transforming, its level had gone up.

It seemed that after the Fish Demon turned into a Jiao, it resulted in a kind of qualitative change, different from the likes of Niu Dali whose enhancement was merely in size and strength.

At this moment, others were also surprised, but despite their surprise, they were not too panicked, 26 levels only, not a significant threat to the five high-level players over level 30.

"Kill!" Hao Mie said coldly.

Everyone prepared to continue the fight.

The Monster Jiao let out a deep Roar from its mouth, "Kill me... you wish... I... kill you!"

Although the transformation was powerful, it seemed to have also taken away some of Li Jinlin’s wisdom. Although it had the shape of a demon, its speech was initially clear. Now, however, it was disjointed and muddled, giving off more of an advanced beast-like impression.

Xiao Jie didn’t even have time to reflect when he saw the Monster Jiao standing upright and letting out a strange, low chant.

Magnificent—Hoo!

Jiao Walking Skill—Tide Rise!

Suddenly, from the ground all around them, rapids appeared out of nowhere. The water swiftly rose, reaching over half a meter deep in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Jie jumped in fright, instinctively leaping into the air and landing on a tree trunk. He quickly realized it was just ordinary water with no killing power, but its range was vast, transforming hundreds of meters of surrounding grassland into marsh in an instant.

Understanding the Monster Jiao’s intentions immediately, Xiao Jie noted that although the Skill had no attack power, it could change the terrain, eliminating its short-legged weakness and optimizing its mobility.

Sure enough, the next second saw the Monster Jiao dive into the water, evading the Flying Knives and Arrow attacks.

Xiao Jie kept his gaze fixed on the surface of the water, watching a dark wave under the water rush swiftly toward Flipped Cake.

"Flipped Cake, be careful!" he urgently warned.

Flipped Cake quickly retreated, ordering his Pet to attack. Beside him, the Big Wild Boar let out a Furious Roar and charged toward the direction of the moving waves.

Bam! The collision between Jiao and boar stunned the Big Wild Boar, who retreated dizzied, while the Monster Jiao was knocked out from the water.

Shaking its head, the boar immediately initiated a second charge. The creature lacked combat tactics, launching itself head-on in a charge, relying on its thick skin, high Blood Volume, and face-to-face toughness to take hits and draw the boss’s attention.

The Monster Jiao, disoriented from the collision, let out a strange low chant just as the boar charged for the third time.

Magnificent—Hoo!

Jiao Walking Skill—Wave Sky!

A whirlpool wave lifted the boar straight into the air, and the Monster Jiao’s mouth stretched wide open, as if it had an extending feature, expanding in all directions with a gaping maw several meters wide.

Combat Skill—Snake Swallowing Elephant!

With a single gulp, it swallowed the Big Wild Boar whole.

"Damn it, my baby!" Flipped Cake screamed in misery.

Xiao Jie, arriving behind the scene, was also startled. Was there a one-hit KO Skill?

But then he felt a surge of elation as he noticed a huge bulge in the Monster Jiao’s belly, writhing and struggling.

Apparently, the boar wasn’t going to die immediately after being swallowed; digestion would take some time.

He was immediately reminded of the ferocious Chameleon Dragon from the Monster Hunter game he used to play.

That creature would become slow and sluggish after swallowing its prey; could this boss have a similar mechanic? If true, that would be helpful.

However, he did not rashly rush forward, unsure how many could be swallowed by that devouring Skill.

Although it seemed not to be an instant kill, if swallowed, one could potentially survive by taking down the boss before digestion, but he wasn’t willing to bet on that, nor did he want to entrust his fate to others.

Raising his hand, he launched a Meteor Soul Chasing Dart, hitting the Monster Jiao right in the face.

-45!

Xiao Jie immediately drew Li Jinlin’s enmity upon himself. The Monster Jiao had lost all human semblance, rearing its head as it prepared to charge.

"Careful! It’s going to spray!" Xiao Jie shouted, quickly evading.

The next second, boom—a black water Jet shot out from the Jiao’s mouth.

The stream was so powerful that, even though Xiao Jie dodged, it instantly split a large tree behind him in two.

That was some serious power! The tree also had Durability, usually varying between two and three hundred, which means that the Monster Jiao’s Breath was at least around 300 in power. Xiao Jie could only withstand it two or three times at most.

As the second Breath came shooting over, Xiao Jie hastily dodged again.

Fortunately, the enmity soon shifted as other players’ distant Attacks drew it away.

The Breath kept spraying, targeting some and sweeping over others.

Thankfully, most people were quite far away, activating their Lightweight Body Techniques and dodgings successively. No one was hit.

"Just like this, it became difficult to deal output," the moment you paused in place, the Black Flood Dragon’s breath would sweep over immediately.

And close combat was even more difficult. It was relatively easy to dodge the breath from a distance; the closer you got, the shorter the reaction time, the harder it was to dodge.

But no matter how difficult, they had to advance.

Hao Mie spoke in a deep voice, "Back row retreat, front row advance!" as he spoke, he rapidly approached the BOSS.

Xiao Jie, unwilling to be outdone and having the temperament of a master player, let it slide that Hao Mie had snagged the MVP yesterday. Today, he had already carried out the enemy-baiting action, which is to say, he had earned an extra merit. As long as he performed well, the MVP should be his turn.

Moreover, he had confidence in his own operations, so he also pressed forward.

Seeing this, Jiu Jianxian gritted his teeth and followed suit.

Even I Want to Be Immortal charged up, swinging his Giant Axe. He wasn’t dumb though; at least he knew his dodging ability was weaker, so he conveniently cut out a Shield and rushed forward with it raised.

The other four, however, stayed far away, comfortably acting as the back row output, shooting Arrows and throwing Flying knives from a distance, not caring whether they hit or not; they were contributing anyway.

As for the front row—whoever wanted to go up went up.

Even though they charged forward, the four of them weren’t foolish. They didn’t approach the BOSS directly but familiarized themselves with the BOSS’s attack skills from a distance first.

Li Jinlin kept unleashing breath attacks, and the four dodged around more than twenty meters away. This distance was relatively safe to dodge, but it also depended on who it was.

Boom! I Want to Be Immortal was hit squarely by a jet of black water breath, the massive impact blowing him backward.

Luckily, the Shield absorbed most of the damage. He thudded to the ground, and I Want to Be Immortal only lost a few dozen points of Blood Volume.

He checked the Shield’s Durability and saw that the Steel Shield in his hands had lost 278 points of Durability.

I Want to Be Immortal was taken aback. With a defensive power of 50 points, such a high Shield still took nearly three hundred damage in one hit. If he had been using one of those ordinary leather and cloth shields, the damage could have been 300-400.

He wanted to continue advancing but suddenly, a private message flashed by.

Ye Luo: Don’t go up. You can’t get the MVP; why seek death?

I Want to Be Immortal paused, his movements half a beat slower, realizing that made sense. He was just over Level 20; it wasn’t worth it to compete with several experts for the front row or to snatch the MVP.

He decisively switched to a bow and arrow.

Combat Skill—Full Moon Shooting!

While shooting, he hadn’t forgotten to send a private message to Xiao Jie.

I Want to Be Immortal: Be careful, Brother Feng, that breath attack must do over 300 damage. Don’t let it hit you.

However, Xiao Jie was completely unaware of the fleeting private message. His attention was entirely on the BOSS.

The three of them dodged the BOSS’s attacks while familiarizing themselves with the pattern of its moves, gradually moving closer.

meters... 15 meters... 13 meters...

The closer they got, the more difficult it became to dodge. The Monster Jiao’s firepower was truly fierce, its breath attacks almost unceasing.

Xiao Jie’s movement technique was released continuously. Dodging frequently, he gradually mastered the BOSS’s attack frequency. After all, this was still a game, and the attack patterns were traceable.

The Monster Jiao’s breath had three variations. One was fixed-point firing, with the highest damage, capable of piercing through a large tree in one hit but also the easiest to dodge.

The second was a left and right sweep, a fan-shaped spew with moderate damage and harder to dodge, but slightly weaker damage. It would take two hits to pierce a large tree.

The third type of breath was the most powerful and would continue spraying for a few seconds upon release. As the head moved randomly, the attack path was completely unpredictable, but there was a two-second Charging time before the breath, which was the best opportunity for output.

As he saw through the various breath attacks, Xiao Jie’s heart settled.

I’ve got today’s MVP in the bag!

He Rolled to dodge a sweeping breath attack and suddenly accelerated forward, preparing for close combat. At the same time, Hao Mie moved in almost simultaneously.

Seeing this, Jiu Jianxian, with a determined grit, followed as well.

He thought, standing proudly as a Level 34 Sword Master, how could he fall behind at this moment?

Still, he was somewhat uncertain at heart and simply chose to approach from behind the BOSS.

As expected, the Monster Jiao was distracted by the two men on either side and completely unaware of what was behind it. Jiu Jianxian landed a Blood Sea Flow attack on the tail of the Monster Jiao, his blood-colored Sword Qi slashing wildly, instantly dealing over two hundred points of damage.

While dealing damage, he kept an eye on the back of the BOSS’s head. Since the Monster Jiao had swallowed a Big Wild Boar, it had a hard time turning around, so Jiu Jianxian could dodge in time before the breath attack.

(Hehe, I’m so clever!)

"Careful!"

"Careful!"

Xiao Jie and Hao Mie warned simultaneously.

The next second, a golden Jiao tail swept out from the water without any warning.

Combat Skill—Dragon Tail!

Damn!

Jiu Jianxian hastily attempted to dodge using Qinggong, but the Jiao tail was incredibly fast and struck him in an instant.

With a slap, he was swept away.

After getting up to see a third of his Blood Volume gone in an instant, Jiu Jianxian was startled. Suddenly, a doubt surfaced in his mind—how did those two guys know what Skill the BOSS was going to use?
