Chapter 63

As the figure gradually became clear, Yang Ye and I quickly recognized it.

"Damn, what is this thing doing here?" Taozi asked in confusion.

"I don't know. It just mentioned Lord Ye Li. Could it have been demoted?" Yang Ye replied.

"Perhaps no one would willingly give up being a boss to become an elite monster."

"Haha, from the look of it, it must have been driven out of its lair by Ye Li or something. Hahaha, Dao Ya must be pretty pitiful," Yang Ye laughed loudly.

Indeed, the figure that appeared in the magic array was none other than Dao Ya, the former boss of the Werewolf Plague dungeon. For some reason, he had been demoted to an elite monster.

At this moment, Dao Ya looked like one of the smaller monsters, exuding a fierce aura. His eyes were bloodshot, black mist surrounded him, and his mouth was open wide, revealing white, sharp teeth. He aimed them at Yang Ye and the others, but his body was not as intact as in the nightmare dungeon; one of his wolf hands was missing.

Seeing that his grand entrance lines had not frightened the intruders, but instead made them laugh, Dao Ya became very angry: "You foolish bunch! Don't think I, Dao Ya, am as easy to bully as before!!"

"Wow, it's quite smart and can get angry!" Taozi laughed.

"Xiao Ye, what is this thing? It's all black and shiny," Wu Di asked, having looked at it for a long time without recognizing what it was.

"It's a werewolf boss. In other dungeon difficulties, it's a boss, but here it's an elite monster. Be careful," Yang Ye said.

There was a reason to be careful. Under the "scan" of the miner's helmet, Yang Ye saw that Dao Ya's attributes had been enhanced, and his skills had all changed—

Dao Ya, the leader of the Dao Ya tribe blackened by the Abyssal Aura—Dao Ya (Abyssalized)

Level: 17

HP: 200,000/200,000

...

Skills:

Blackened Fang: This black venom is injected into your body from my white teeth! Dao Ya, blackened by the Abyssal Aura, has learned a new skill. His fangs will be poisonous, and enemies hit by Blackened Fang will enter a poisoned state for 10 seconds.

Wild Pounce: Wolves do not fear lambs; they are just food, like you! Pounces on a target from a distance, knocking the target to the ground. Pounce deals damage and allows Dao Ya to absorb 5% of the target's blood, restoring 5% of his own HP. This skill cannot be dodged, and the target is random.

Howling Scream: Aww, aww, aww... baa baa baa. Dao Ya emits a terrifying howl, dealing damage to the surroundings and causing a fear effect. Units under the fear effect cannot control themselves for 2 seconds.

Additional: Abyss Mode: Dao Ya, blackened by the Abyssal Aura, has undergone significant changes in appearance, with all attributes increased by 5%, skills enhanced by 3%, and random hate refresh.

Ignoring the simple attribute increase, the most annoying part was the random hate refresh in Abyss Mode. This meant that at any uncertain moment, it would OT and attack a target that had just attacked it. If it just slowly approached, it could be pulled back, but if it pounced directly, it would be troublesome.

"This thing is a bit tricky. Its skills have changed. Be careful, Taozi," Yang Ye warned.

"Understood." Taozi put away his playful attitude; he was no longer a level 30 hidden profession spatial mage.

"Newbies, be careful too. You've played the game before, and we've fought bosses together before. Although it's not exactly the same, you should know the general pattern, right?" Yang Ye added.

"No problem. Let me know if anything happens," Li Yanxin said. Although he seemed a bit carefree, his reflexes were actually the fastest among the group. In the past, he always had the best equipment and the sharpest skills.

"Newbie, take care of me," Wu Di, the weakest, chose to be a priest, but being a priest also required skill... possibly even more difficult than other professions.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you!" Chengzi patted his chest, looking righteous.

Wu Di gave him a disdainful look, "Get out of the way, you'll just get me killed." Chengzi's archer? Forget it! To be honest, Chengzi loved playing archers in every game, and his ID never changed, always "Rotten Chengzi." Despite playing many archers, his skills were average, neither good nor bad. He claimed to have his own attack pattern, but the game didn't have a mechanism to support it, so his skills didn't stand out. Who knows?

"Alright, the boss is here. Don't talk so much. We used to play so enthusiastically, and we can do it now too!" Yang Ye said, then swung his blade, using the Flash of the Royal Blade, and took the lead in front of Dao Ya.

The others stopped talking and followed closely behind, forming a well-organized team.

...

"Little lamb, have you ever seen the teeth of a wolf? Hehe, come, let me give you a taste!"

Dao Ya, leering, bit down on Yang Ye. Of course, Yang Ye was prepared. He slashed Dao Ya's tongue with his blade and used the Flash of the Royal Blade to slightly shift his position, avoiding the attack.

"Ugh, I gave you such an honor, and you refused? You've made me so angry! Fine, if you don't want it, I'll give it to someone else!" Dao Ya roared, scratching the ground with his hind legs, preparing to pounce.

[Dao Ya is about to use Wild Pounce! His target is Rotten Chengzi!]

In the miner's helmet, Yang Ye saw Dao Ya's next move, but he didn't plan to warn Chengzi. He just softly shouted, "Be careful!"

"Hehe... Rotten Chengzi, I can smell your flesh!"

As soon as he finished his line, Dao Ya pounced on Chengzi, who was still processing Yang Ye's warning—

"What? Be careful of what? Damn... the boss is flying over, damn, don't pounce on me! Damn, damn, damn... my purity... waa, I won't be able to get married..."

This skill couldn't be dodged. Dao Ya instantly pounced on Chengzi and started biting him, while Chengzi cried and looked like a violated young wife, making Yang Ye and the others burst into laughter.

"Damn, Chengzi, your first time... hahaha..." Wu Di laughed wildly, casting a healing spell on Chengzi, though it wasn't much, it still had an effect.

"Hahaha, screenshot saved!" Yang Ye also laughed, quickly taking a screenshot and saving it carefully.

"Nothing to say, recording started. I'll record this great and wonderful moment," Li Yanxin grinned and started recording.

Taozi watched silently.

Fortunately, Dao Ya's skill was relatively quick. Chengzi, who had been pounced on, stood up calmly, looking indifferent. He patted himself off, picked up his bow, and fired several arrows, which sharply pierced Dao Ya's body. The hatred for the one who killed his father and took his wife was unparalleled...

It must be said that Dao Ya was relatively fair in this aspect. Everyone except Taozi was pounced on. Taozi, who silently saved a video and several screenshots, remained calm—

In the future, one screenshot for a legendary item, one video for a house.

Wu Di, who had just been pounced on, got up, cursed a few times, healed himself, and re-entered the battle.

"You... are all so evil!" Dao Ya roared again, his voice full of anger.

[Dao Ya's hate has refreshed! The next target is Ye Guang!]

[Dao Ya is about to use Wild Pounce, targeting Ye Guang!]

"Damn, Xiao Di, heal yourself!" Yang Ye quickly shouted. Wu Di's HP had just been reduced by the pounce and hadn't been fully restored. Another pounce might really kill him.

"What?" Wu Di was confused, but before he could think it through, he saw a huge figure charging at him, making him scream—

"Damn, boss, didn't you just pounce on me?!"

This line made the originally tense group burst into laughter, suppressing their laughter, they all rushed to help. Wu Di was a priest, after all.

"Flash of the Royal Blade!"

"Space Collapse!"

"Brave Guard!"

"Triple Shot!"

A series of skills were cast, finally shifting the focus away from Wu Di after Dao Ya's skill was used. Wu Di, with only a sliver of HP left, quickly got up and retreated to heal...

Fighting Dao Ya was thrilling. Yang Ye had never been so excited fighting a single person from the Seven Night Guild or a wild boss. After much effort, they finally defeated Dao Ya safely.

"The last line was so classic..." Yang Ye said.

"Right, right, I've recorded the video. Hehe." Li Yanxin grinned.

"Screenshots and recordings saved. Delete them, and I'll delete them," Chengzi said.

Taozi, who had silently saved another recording and screenshot, finally spoke: "I have a copy for everyone. No arguing, one by one. Screenshots for legendary items, videos for houses. As for the recordings, I haven't decided yet."

Such malicious intentions made Yang Ye and the others furious, and they realized it!

"Damn, hand over all the loot, and I'll spare your life!"

"Right, right, or you'll have no place to bury your body!"

"Right, right, hand it over quickly!"

"Hehe, Brother Taozi, I'll buy mine for 3 copper coins, and can you give me a copy of everyone else's?" This was Li Yanxin, the only one not standing with the group, betraying the organization!

"Damn!" The four of them said in unison.

After the nonsense, the four of them continued forward. The further they went, the fewer items they saw on the ground, and the scenery became darker and less clear. The uncomfortable aura also grew stronger.

Until they stepped into the training ground, the aura reached its peak, and the sky was filled with black mist, like the black smoke after a war. The surroundings were dead silent, with no insect or bird sounds. The previously slightly exciting battle background music disappeared, leaving a deathly silence.

Suddenly, countless white flames rose from the torches, illuminating the entire training ground in a ghastly white. A tragic and terrifying howl suddenly rose, making everyone's hair stand on end...
