Nan Zhu glanced at Jeston's information and felt a wave of dizziness. Covering her face, she complained to Chen Ran and Li Ji beside her:
"I'm speechless. Is this the kind of boss Columbia fights? Isn't this way too easy?"
Chen Ran, who was standing to the side, had obviously also seen Jeston's skills and mechanics, and nodded in agreement with Nan Zhu.
Li Ji simply smiled and didn't explain to the two of them the difficulties of the prison.
Although Jeston is a freebie in this level, the mobs are no pushovers.
Boxer Prisoner, Legendary Convict, Prisoner Archer—once these creatures are unleashed, their damage output becomes absolutely insane.
In particular, the Boxer class gains a 50% increase in direct attack power and ignores 80% of defense.
If a group of boxers swarms over there, let alone Saria, even if you put Hoshiguma there, she could be beaten to death by a flurry of punches.
"This boss is so weak, I'll go first this time!"
Nan Zhu confidently turned to Zuo Le and Hei Jiao and said, then immediately deployed himself on the ground, preparing for the first battle.
[With such confidence, don't let yourself get smacked of fermented bean curd again, Teacher Nanzhu.]
[Nanzhu: You are the challenger!]
[Will Nanzhu Laoshi win?]
[But logically speaking, they shouldn't be able to beat it, since it's a boss after all.]
[What's wrong with the Boss? Zuo Le just killed all the mobs and the Boss on the map with a single attack, so why can't Nan Zhu Lao Shi? Who do you think you are!]
While the comments were still full of sarcastic remarks, Jeston had already begun to walk with elegant steps.
A delicate, small iron sword floated in the swirling wine glass. After taking a sip of wine, Jeston flicked the glass, sending the sword flying towards Nanzhu.
However, with only 800 attack power, Jeston doesn't seem to be able to deal any effective damage to Nanzhu.
It seems like it was just a kind-hearted person trying to reduce the blood pressure of the martial artist.
"For a martial artist, this level of damage is practically negligible."
Nan Zhu was quite confident in himself, and he took a quick look at Jeston's first form skills.
It's just three simple sentences: +50 spell resistance, perform ranged attacks, deal spell damage, and the third attack will have a powerful strike that stuns for three seconds.
Even among the bosses they fight later in the game, this is a rare monster from the mortal realm.
They're not even as scary as some elite monsters.
For example, if a berserk host with an attack power of 1750 had the health of a boss, wouldn't it be much scarier than Jeston's form?
Not to mention that Nan Zhu also comes with 10 magic resistance, and its attacks deal physical damage.
This phase for Jeston was essentially meaningless to him.
At the moment of engaging the enemy, Nan Zhu's health was almost reduced to 50%, making it the perfect time to activate her skills.
Nan Zhu quickly activated his skill, and an invisible blade of light sliced through the air, striking Jeston's exposed iron and prison guard uniform with a sharp explosion.
Nan Zhu's skill increases attack power for a certain period of time and turns attacks into double hits. Combined with the martial artist's innate normal attack healing, it can restore its own health more quickly.
In addition, his talent for armor penetration allows him to deal well with enemies that other martial artists cannot handle.
As expected, Jeston's health bar was reduced to 0, and Jeston himself seemed to have his strength drained away, collapsing to his knees.
But just as Nanzhu was waiting for his skills to recover, he suddenly remembered something...
That's the boss in front of us; it seems he doesn't have any invincibility frames!
"Damn, I'm used to bosses having invincibility frames when they enter their second phase, which gives them a chance to turn things around... I forgot that this damn boss doesn't have invincibility frames or phase transition times!"
Before Nan Zhu could even regret it, he saw Jeston's hands turn into black iron swords and attack him without hesitation.
In the second phase, Jeston, who had increased his attack power by 800, managed to cut off nearly a third of Nanzhu's health with just one strike.
This significantly increased the speed of the Nanzhu Survival Sword Technique.
But as he said before, once a martial artist loses their skills, their survivability will decrease significantly.
It is especially deadly when facing such a high-attack enemy, whose skill cooldown time is relatively long.
"Damn, I was just saying he was bad, but this is too much of a struggle."
For some reason, Nan Zhu suddenly felt a sense of shame.
Compared to bosses like Patriot and Talulah, who can threaten both high ground and ground simultaneously.
At first glance, this Jeston looks like a toy for warlocks and supports. Once you take down his first phase, killing him in the second phase is a piece of cake for the warlock.
However, the lack of a skill cooldown time for transitioning between phases is not very friendly to one-on-one operators who are good at fighting crickets, and is even somewhat malicious.
"Damn, I sent it."
Nan Zhu cried out in grief and indignation, and then, with Jeston's hands plunging into the ground, he was sent to the next round.
[Hahaha, I just finished commenting on someone's food and I got attacked with fermented bean curd.]
[Is this feasible, Lao Nan?]
[The host dedicates "See You Again" to Lao Nan.]
"No way, who can beat this thing's two phases?! It just doesn't make sense, does it?"
As if in response to his question, the system immediately broadcast the progress of the other operators.
Blackhorn failed to clear Jeston's second stage.
[Southern Candle failed to clear the second stage of Jeston]
Zuo Le has successfully completed both phases of Jeston.
"?"
[Hahaha, the slap in the face came so fast! This is our Zuo Le!]
[You can't beat him ≠ Zuo Le can't beat him.]
[Sigh, I couldn't beat either of those katana users. Luckily, Zuo Le uses a Tang sword; he can't get along with you katana users.]
Nan Zhu looked at the notification and comments floating in the sky and felt her face getting hot.
Although they are all katana users.
However, as a six-star martial artist, he fought on par with the five-star Fire Dragon S Black Horn.
That's embarrassing enough!
"No, we have to play seriously!"
Seeing Nan Zhu's confident expression turn into one of regret, even Li Ji, watching from the sidelines, could only chuckle twice.
Despite everyone saying that Jeston is bad, there aren't many melee units that can single-handedly handle two phases of combat.
Even Surtr is only a hair's breadth away, unable to achieve a single-target dual-phase Jeston.
To be honest, even if Saria were standing here right now, she still wouldn't be able to beat Jeston.
after all……
In the story, no matter how powerful you are, it's all fake.jpg
……
The second challenge takes place in a snowy field, where a tall figure in a black military uniform stands in the center.
Beneath the pitch-black helmet, countless tubes spread out, covering the entire body.
The heavy breathing sounded like a broken bellows.
Even a glimpse from afar sends chills down one's spine.
"The Emperor's Blade," the hunters, commonly known as the inner guards.
Unlike last time, this time Nan Zhu, who said he would fight seriously, gave up after only reading the skill descriptions.
"The kingdom will definitely fall to my feet, and no matter how fast I fight, I'll unleash a collapse fear before I die... Isn't that certain death?"
He doesn't have any evasion talent or invincibility mechanism. If he gets hit, he's doomed. This boss can't be defeated in a one-on-one fight!
Even when assembling a full force to fight this boss, one must carefully adjust the distribution of kingdoms.
"Ursus has really hit the jackpot, managing to draw such a rift at home."
After reviewing the mechanics, Nan Zhu sighed, quickly stepped forward, and began his attack.
And the result was exactly as he expected.
Although he was able to take down the inner guard in the first phase, he would still be forced to leave the field by the full-screen collapse fear after the inner guard finished the first phase.
"What a disgusting mechanism... Who is this mechanism targeting? There's no way anyone can get past it, right?"
[Nanzhu failed to clear the first stage of the Inner Guard level]
Zuo Le failed to pass the first stage of the inside defense qualification.
The system's announcement appeared on the big screen once again, and Nan Zhu breathed a slight sigh of relief after seeing that Zuo Le had also failed to make it through the first stage.
"As expected, no matter how resilient Zuo Le's shield mechanism is, it can't withstand the effect of the guaranteed field. Finally, it's a draw!"
Just as Nanzhu couldn't help but sigh again, a barrage of comments flooded the screen.
