"Clank!~" The plague zombies fell to the ground one after another, dropping a pile of gold coins and white equipment. The drop rate of elite monsters wasn't low, but there was nothing particularly good.

"Whoosh!~" Seeing the dropped items, Qiuqiu flew over like a fly to meat, a red beam of light sweeping across the ground, leaving it clean and empty. The item distribution threshold set by Qin Shuang was "excellent," so all these items ended up in Mu Feng's pocket.

"I'm dizzy!~ I finally understand what it's for!" Qiuqiu's unexpected move left Baihe speechless. What a bizarre pet.

Under Mu Feng's protection, they managed to kill several waves of small monsters without much trouble. The team's coordination improved, and their efficiency clearly increased. After passing through a narrow passage, they finally arrived at the first boss of the Demon's Lair.

This was a huge monster, about five to six meters tall, a flesh golem made of stitched-together corpses. Its body was covered in terrifying sutures, and many horrifying faces could be seen on it. It was aimlessly wandering around the large cave.

Flesh Golem: Level 25 Gold Elite Boss, 200,000 HP! A joke creation by the Demon Researcher, made from the flesh of countless humans, it possesses terrifying power.

"I think we should share our trump cards, otherwise we might as well reset the dungeon and prepare for the hard mode..." Seeing the Flesh Golem's HP, Mu Feng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. A Level 25 Gold Elite Boss, no wonder the Starlight guild decided to come back after reaching Level 25.

"Miss..." Xueyue Baihe hesitated, looking at Xueyue Qin Shuang and gently shaking her head. Everyone has their secrets; could they really tell Mu Feng, whom they had just met today?

"After completing my Heroic Difficulty class change, I received two special rewards: Skill Charge and Elemental Overload! All elemental spells can be charged for three seconds, with each second of charging increasing damage by 100% and the overload chance by 10%. As for Elemental Overload, there's a chance that after casting a lightning spell, an identical spell will be automatically cast." Taking a deep breath, ignoring Baihe's hint, Xueyue Qin Shuang revealed her Heroic special rewards.

"Take my most commonly used single-target skill, Lightning Bolt, for example. It originally takes 1.5 seconds to cast, but now I can charge it for three seconds, totaling 4.5 seconds, to achieve the damage of four Lightning Bolts cast in 6 seconds, with a 30% overload chance!" Qin Shuang further explained her rewards.

"I understand." This so-called overload was similar to Mu Feng's Instant Shadow, except it only applied to lightning spells.

"Since that's the case, I'll share mine too..." Baihe didn't expect Qin Shuang to reveal her special rewards so straightforwardly, so she had to do the same.

"My ability is Mana Coordination. When Mana Coordination is activated, my spell damage and critical hit chance are linked to my current mana percentage, with a maximum increase of 100% damage and 20% critical hit chance. At the same time, my mana cost for casting spells will also increase by 100%!"

"Thank you for your trust. My special reward is more complex, but in short, it activates a state that adds new effects to my skills." In return, Mu Feng also revealed some of his secrets. He was inwardly shocked; these two were super powerful spellcasters!

"I think we can take down this boss!" After analyzing all the information, Mu Feng was confident.

"How?" Qin Shuang asked curiously.

"Against such a powerful boss, Dasha will eventually die, but we still have a chance to kill the boss! We need to attack with all our might! This is the simplest but most demanding method in terms of output. It's about pushing the boss to the limit with maximum output!"

"Pushing to the limit?" The three women, including Dasha, didn't quite understand what it meant.

"Facing a powerful boss, the tank will eventually fall, and the healer's mana will eventually run out. But if we can kill the boss before the tank falls, we win. For this, we must push our output to the limit!"

"I get it, it's a race against the boss to see if it kills Dasha first or if we can take it down first!" Qin Shuang fully understood Mu Feng's intention.

"Exactly! No matter what happens, Chuchun, don't heal us three; just focus on keeping Dasha alive. As long as Dasha doesn't fall before you run out of mana, you've done your job! As for us, we need to go all out with our attacks! No matter what the boss does, we have to handle it ourselves and not distract the healer."

"I have a healing skill, I can heal!" Qin Shuang interjected.

"Try not to heal, as it will reduce output and prevent us from reaching the maximum. If someone's health is critically low, then heal them." Mu Feng thought for a moment and said.

"Understood!" Everyone nodded, understanding their tasks.

Chuchun cast three layers of Life Bloom and Rejuvenation on Dasha, restoring 290 HP per second. This was much stronger than Xiao Xi's current level 1 Nature's Blessing. Following Mu Feng, Xiao Xi and Qiuqiu had both reached level 7, but the Nature's Blessing skill hadn't been upgraded. However, Mu Feng believed that once Xiao Xi's skill level increased, it wouldn't be much worse than Chuchun's.

"I'm going in!" Seeing the boss walk to the center of the cave, Dasha shouted and charged at the boss.

"Are you here to play with me?" The huge flesh golem emitted a strange doll-like voice, striking Dasha with a single punch, instantly depleting his HP. At the same time, Chuchun's Nourish finished casting and immediately restored his HP.

Dasha's single-target hate was sufficient, and Mu Feng and the others didn't wait for the next Thunder Strike. They immediately rushed in to attack.

After completing the cast of Lightning Bolt, Qin Shuang began to charge, gathering powerful electrical charges around her. The lightning ball between her hands grew larger, and when it reached the maximum charge of three seconds, the area around her was filled with raging lightning.

"Whoosh!" A huge lightning ball with a silver trail flew towards the flesh golem. -1576! The quadruple damage was astonishing, and another Lightning Bolt followed, successfully triggering Overload! -1576! A wooden totem appeared beside Qin Shuang, and small fireballs from the totem struck the flesh golem. -123!

Xueyue Baihe's attacks were equally powerful. With Mana Coordination activated, her Arcane Blast dealt 1983 damage! Each Magic Missile also increased to nearly 700 damage!

-978! With Sacrifice activated, Mu Feng used Blade Dash to reach the flesh golem's back, then leaped up and struck with all his might, -1358! Followed by the Death Knight talent skill, Dark Slash, -345! This was the advantage of a Demon Hunter; all skills required no casting time. Mu Feng completed a three-hit combo in just one second, and the damage from auto-attacks and Sacrifice burn was also significant, -293, -247!

All three were Heroic class, and it was difficult to form a more powerful output combination in the world. Under their relentless attacks, the boss's HP dropped rapidly. However, Chuchun, who was continuously casting heals, was running low on mana.

Should I activate Soul Burn and Demon Power? Mu Feng was a bit hesitant. But thinking about how the two women had been honest with him about their rewards, he felt at ease and immediately activated Demon Power. Mu Feng was enveloped in terrifying black energy, and all his skills were enhanced.

-964, -975! Blade Dash now became a two-stage dash, causing damage on both passes.

-2715! Focused Strike was guaranteed to crit, dealing massive damage.

-687! Dark Slash's damage doubled. The huge damage numbers left the four team members with their mouths agape.

"My mana is down to half!" Chuchun shouted, her hands never stopping as she struggled to maintain Dasha's HP.

Mu Feng checked the boss's HP, which was still around 100,000! "Speed up!"

"Understood!" The two women intensified their attacks, and Baihe even took a mana potion to replenish a large amount of mana, increasing her damage.

"You're hurting me, I don't want to play with you anymore!" The flesh golem's voice sounded like a baby crying, and it knelt down in anger, pounding the ground with its huge fists while crying.

The immense force of the flesh golem caused the entire cave to shake, and large rocks fell from the ceiling. The rain of rocks put the five of them in grave danger!

PS: Equipment defense values have been corrected. Mu Feng's current defense is exactly 100 points. Monster HP has been corrected: normal monsters have 300 + level * 100 HP, elite monsters have level * 1000 HP, silver elite bosses have level * 4000 HP, and gold elite bosses have level * 8000 HP. Legendary bosses are rare and will be decided based on the situation.
