Chapter 403: Chapter 403: Armor-piercing Explosive Bullet

The BOSS’S final attack was increasing in speed as time passed, and a hint of crimson appeared on the spinning blade, the invisible force it generated was growing larger and larger.

One meter, three meters, five meters,…

In the end, there was nowhere left in the room to dodge the BOSS’S final attack. Out of options, Song Jian had to flee the room, sprinting towards the main door of the instance.

Boom-

The BOSS burst through the main door of the room, slicing the walls on either side and reducing them to a pile of rubble. The four teammates huddled in a corner, quivering with fear. If Song Jian hadn’t lured the BOSS away, they would undoubtedly be corpses by now.

“This… This is the power of a level 20 Lord-level BOSS?” Zhou Qing’s eyes were filled with fear. The terrifying figure of the BOSS had left an indelible shadow in his heart.

“Should… Should we go and help?” Wang Qi asked in a weak voice. The room fell into silence.

Melee fighters can’t get close at all.” Ma Yu cast a glance at Tang Rong, muttering under his breath.

“Yeah, we can’t get close.” Tang Rong was still shaken and almost got one-shotted by the BOSS earlier.

“I’m a priest…” Zhou Qing glanced over at Wang Qi. He was grateful he was a priest who stood far back; otherwise, with his cloth armor defense, he would have been one-shotted by merely touching the BOSS.

All eyes turned to Wang Qi.

“Captain Wang, why don’t you represent our team and offer some assistance?”

“Yes, we should help and not just spectate. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing when the spoils of war are distributed!”

“Captain Wang, your class is the most suitable, you don’t have to risk your life. Just stay at a distance and shoot, even failing to cause damage doesn’t matter. The main thing is for our team’s attitude to be shown.”

“Yes, yes, attitude, attitude is very important!-”

The three discussed among themselves while Wang Qi’s face turned pale. The blade of the BOSS had whizzed in front of him earlier, and even the force of it had caused his cheek to sting.

Under the expectant gazes, Wang Qi gritted his teeth, tightly clenched his weapon, and shouted in a low voice: “I’ll do it. I’ll go help him!”

With that, Wang Qi charged towards the BOSS.

“What a man! Respect.”

“With this kind of daring spirit, he really deserves to be the captain. If there’s a chance to cover the rear in the future, don’t fight him for it. He’ll get annoyed.” “Yeah, yeah, rear-covering tasks can all be given to the captain in the future. He can handle it for sure.”

Although Wang Qi felt afraid, he also knew that Song Jian was currently holding all of the BOSS’S aggro, and even if he fought desperately, he wouldn’t be able to draw its attention.

But still, he was afraid!

Everywhere the BOSS went was like the passing of a violent storm, the cages were twisted and disfigured by the force of the BOSS, pressing and extending the corridor by three to four meters.

Song Jian looked back, the duration of the BOSS’S skill was quite long; it had been more than ten seconds already, yet it continued spinning relentlessly. The invisible forces around it had formed into a robust tornado. The multitude of sword forces within the tornado collided with each other, sparking bright sparks.

If they continued running, they would exit the instance, and the BOSS would then turn its attention to Wang Qi and the others. Although Wang Qi looked terrified, he was still continually attacking the BOSS. Song Jian could not bear to cause trouble for them by leading the BOSS their way.

“I’m going all in!” Song Jian quickly weighed the options in his mind, gritted his teeth, and turned around to charge at the BOSS.

Tai Chi Sword Skill!

Waving his long sword, Song Jian amazingly collided with the sword-force tornado;

Boom-

With a loud bang, the entire game area trembled slightly. Song Jian felt a strong force surge towards him, forcing him to step back, but he soon stabilized, engaging his Heart’s Eye skill. His eyes radiated faint glints of light; Clang! Clang! Clang!

Song Jian’s Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword, always swung from an uncanny angle, tearing through the cyclone of blade energy that the BOSS generated. His sword clashed with the BOSS’S long black blade;

Once, twice, three times,…

Song Jian’s nerves were taut, like steel threads. His full attention was focused on every movement, every detail of the BOSS. Each clash of sword on blade was crucial; even a small deviation could cause Song Jian to lose all his progress, and be thrown into the air by the BOSS’S powerful energy;

lhe essence of the Tai Chi Sword Skill is the dissipation of force. The BOSS’S cyclone of blade energy was likened to a massive wave, and Song Jian was like a solid rock. Collisions constantly occurred, but with each clash, he shattered the waves of energy;

The proficiency of his Tai Chi Sword Skill was increasing at an astonishing pace. In a short span of time, his proficiency level had elevated to 100%;

If Song Jian were to open his skill bar now, he would notice a constant golden glow within the Tai Chi Sword Skill column. The 100% limit seemed to blur, as though the level cap was being constantly honed;

With every clash of sword and blade, the aura that the BOSS had built up slowly dissipated. Its once-fluid moves now seemed obstructed by a pebble, causing minor delays each time;

Suddenly, the cyclone of blade energy the BOSS controlled could not be sustained any longer. It dissipated with a “boom”, leaving behind a burst of energy. Song Jian’s Tai Chi Sword Skill also ran its course at this point, and without his guard up, he was thrown into the air by the energy and harshly smashed into the wall near the entrance of the game area;

Just then, Wang Qi was loading a bullet more than two fingers long into his gun. This was the Armor-piercing Explosive Bullet that Wang Qi had purchased from a wandering merchant for a thousand Doomsday Coins. You could not find this kind of bullet in the regular system shop.

This was one of Wang Qi’s last resorts. Although costly, the damage inflicted by this bullet justified its price;

At this moment, Wang Qi held the gun steady in both hands that appeared as still as if made of iron, his cheek pressed against the cold bolt of the gun. His right eye was peering through the scope, unblinkingly fixed on the back of the BOSS’S head;

Target locked…

Target hit location determined…

Energy charge-up…

Energy charge-up exceeds 120%…

Warning: This shot could deal 180% damage to the target, but will also inflict permanent damage on the firearm, reducing its maximum durability by 10 points permanently;

The cold, mechanical voice echoed in Wang Qi’s ears, but he remained unfazed;

Previously, he had fired at least a hundred rounds, but not a single one hit the BOSS amidst the blade energy whirlwind.

That’s why he brought out this bullet.

Wang Qi took a deep breath, finally pulling the trigger;

Bang-

lhe gun recoiled fiercely, the muzzle flashing with a light blue flame over a foot long;

Crack-

A clear shattering sound came from within the gun, causing Wang Qi’s face to go deathly pale. Despite the pain in his two arms, as if his bones had cracked, it was no comparison to the cold dread in his heart;

“Damn, seems like a low-probability event has occurred…” These thoughts ran through Wang Qi’s mind;

At that moment, the blade energy cyclone from the BOSS had been shattered by Song Jian’s Tai Chi Sword Skill. Song Jian’s body had harshly smacked into a wall, and the BOSS, roaring, tottered backwards;

“Thud-”

A crisp sound of impact reverberated, the BOSS’S body staggered briefly. Something seemed to have been shot out from between its brows, spraying a streak of blood;
