Chapter 1310: Chapter 113: Killing the Fish and Collecting the Corpse (Two in One)_2
"Alright."
Su Ran felt that this Golden Scale Spearfish King was a bit out of the ordinary. Although its attributes weren’t as impressive as the one he had previously slain, the intelligence it displayed far surpassed that of the quest BOSS. If he could capture it as a pet, it would be excellent.
Unfortunately, it was not the right time—this Golden Scale Spearfish King was destined to be Wu Liuyi’s prey, and death was to be its final resting place.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."
A series of Ice Arrows were successively released by Su Ran, piercing through layers of seawater and targeting the front, middle, and back areas of the Spearfish King. If he could hit the target and luckily induce a frozen state, that would be ideal.
At that moment, Su Ran felt some regret. In this marine environment, fire-based spells couldn’t exert even the slightest bit of power. His instant-cast Fireball was out of the question here. Fortunately, he had both ice and fire spells in his repertoire, which allowed him not to be hindered by the terrain. With the Ice Jewel, the power of the Ice Arrow Technique was undiminished!
"Splash."
The Golden Scale Spearfish King didn’t panic at the incoming Ice Arrows. With a flick of its tail fin, a wave undulation spread outward, greeting the incoming Ice Arrows and effortlessly disrupting their trajectories. Not a single Ice Arrow could threaten it.
In other words, Su Ran’s entire barrage of attacks proved to be futile.
"Overturning Water, where are your pets? Summon them and let’s kill it!"
Wu Liuyi was anxious. He didn’t expect the BOSS to be so challenging. At this rate, the two of them had no hope of defeating it!
"Get lost. All my pets are land ducks. Summoning them here would just be an embarrassment."
Su Ran gave Wu Liuyi a look of contempt and continued to unleash Ice Arrows. At this moment, his stubbornness took over, and he wanted to see if all these Ice Arrows could be dodged by the Spearfish King!
"What about your Jiaolong? Summon it quickly! Are you saving it for the New Year?"
Wu Liuyi almost had an aneurysm from frustration. "If you don’t summon it now, we’ll be waiting to die and respawn!"
"Hey, it’s not that serious. It’s only a level 40 Gold BOSS, we still have a chance of killing it."
Su Ran didn’t tell him that he had previously slain a Golden Scale Spearfish King. However, with Wu Liuyi here, it was true he couldn’t go all out.
Nevertheless, spurred by Wu Liuyi’s reminder, Su Ran was now interested. He wanted to see if the Eternal Poison Jiaolong would become stronger in the sea environment.
But if it were to drown, that would indeed be embarrassing.
If the name of the Jiaolong were to be so tarnished, it would be a great loss.
As it turned out, Su Ran’s worries were unnecessary. The Eternal Poison Jiaolong, upon being summoned, didn’t show any signs of discomfort. Instead, the seawater around it turned into a dark green hue. Under such an effect, Wu Liuyi was stunned.
"Ha ha, this is what a powerful Jiaolong looks like! Let’s see if this old spearfish still dares to be cocky with us!"
Wu Liuyi excitedly clenched his axe, but before he could tear his gaze away from the Eternal Poison Jiaolong, a powerful force struck his abdomen, sending waves of excruciating pain through his brain. Wu Liuyi endured the pain, swinging his dual axes like a madman at the long spike, and a series of thudding noises soon followed.
The youngster had gone from joy to sorrow.
Su Ran couldn’t bear to watch Wu Liuyi’s pitiable state. He deserved to suffer for being distracted during a fight!
"Whoosh!"
Under Su Ran’s command, the Eternal Poison Jiaolong immediately spewed out a Poison Gas Bomb. As it passed, the seawater changed color, displaying how potent the toxin contained within the bomb was.
The Golden Scale Spearfish King was extremely wary of the Poison Gas Bomb and immediately let go of Wu Liuyi to dodge to the side. Little did it know, Su Ran had been waiting for this moment. With the splash skill activated, the controlled Ice Arrows created three phantoms, effectively blocking the Spearfish King’s escape route.
"Splash, splash."
Facing these magical attacks, the Golden Scale Spearfish King attempted to repeat its earlier defense, its tail fin shaking continuously, but before it could generate the wave undulation, a furious cry erupted, and two axes, coupled with a fierce onslaught, brutally chopped down on its back.
"Haha, die for me, you bastard!"
Wu Liuyi, seeing his sneak attack succeed, showed no mercy, and immediately unleashed a Falling Leaf Attack, sweeping it across the belly of the beast, leaving a vivid red mark and blasting away 300 points of its health.
Meanwhile, a Poison Gas Bomb and Ice Arrow flew in succession, hitting the Golden Scale Spearfish King together, the damage numbers popping up in quick succession and successfully poisoning the boss.
The Golden Scale Spearfish King, in both shock and rage, twisted its body and easily shook off Wu Liuyi’s hold. Its body flashed with light, and suddenly, multiple dark shadows spawned around it. Upon a closer look, they were Black Scale Spearfish, a total of twenty!
This was precisely the boss’s Summoning Skill, Fish Tide!
"Can’t beat me, so you start calling for your lackeys, how shameless!"
Wu Liuyi spat in disdain, but unexpectedly, due to the resistance of the water, he failed to spit it out and ended up spraying himself instead, leading to an awkward moment.
He wiped his face haphazardly and quickly charged forward, a Full Moon Sword Qi burst forth, and not even the sea water could weaken the sword aura, blowing away the entire school of fish with impressive visual effects.
"I want to join the fun too!"
Seeing Wu Liuyi wreaking havoc, Su Ran couldn’t help but feel itchy to get involved and immediately unleashed a Surging Waves, causing an earthquake-like disturbance in the water. The newly assembled Black Scale Spearfish were all washed away, floundering like drunken fools, completely losing any semblance of coordination.
The Perpetual Venomous Serpent wasn’t idle either, immediately spewing out a Plague Toxin. With the fluctuation of the water, it began to spread, and within a short while, a large area turned red. Not one of the twenty Black Scale Spearfish escaped, all stained red, looking quite festive.
With the addition of the Perpetual Venomous Serpent, the situation had completely reversed. Even with the Golden Scale Spearfish King’s Fish Relying on Sea Power skill, it was unable to turn the tide of the battle. After a fierce fight of about ten minutes, a pile of fish corpses floated around the duo, and only then did the fighting pause.
"Haha, what a thrilling battle, a level forty golden boss beaten by just the two of us!"
Wu Liuyi, animatedly chugged a potion, almost choking on it, but he didn’t care in the slightest, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the loot the boss dropped, as well as all the dead fish.
"Don’t get too excited too soon, get your Spatial Bag out quickly. If you can’t fit the bodies, you’re gonna be bummed out!"
Su Ran disapproved of Wu Liuyi’s bragging and bluntly put him in his place. If there was to be a disappointment, at least there would be a psychological cushion to prevent a huge letdown.
"Bummed out about what? Even if they can’t be used for the quest, at the very least we got a bunch of gear, a small fortune, wahaha!"
Wu Liuyi didn’t have the time to pay attention to the dead fish, he dove straight for the loot that had burst forth, picking them up with great delight. Killing bosses and collecting loot was an enduring hot topic in the online gaming world, and also the fastest shortcut to increase one’s strength.
"Holy cow, two golden equipment pieces! If they’re identified with top-notch attributes, we’re rich!"
He had been playing the game for so long but had never witnessed such a grand scene, especially being personally involved in a huge drop, the visual impact was overwhelming, making Wu Liuyi feel like he was in a dream, everything seemed so unreal.
"Haha, look what we have here, a silver necklace, what a thrill!"
"..."
Su Ran, watching Wu Liuyi act as if he had gone mad, shook his head helplessly, feeling like the man was a country bumpkin. Only three pieces of equipment exploded, the rest were potions, and he was this joyous. If Wu Liuyi were to rob the Imperial City’s armory, wouldn’t he be overwhelmed with excitement?
"Here you go, this is your fair share, equipment is split equally!"
Wu Liuyi, very generously, divided the loot into two piles, "Overturning Water buddy, you choose first, they are both about the same value, it’s up to you!"
"It doesn’t matter, either pile will do."
Su Ran didn’t even bother to look and just took the pile closest to him, wanting to see if any of these dead fish would trigger a reaction from the Spatial Bag. If the bodies could be collected, that would make the quest much easier.
"Next up is the main event, watch closely, Overturning Water buddy!"
After the build-up, Wu Liuyi finally pulled out the Spatial Bag.
But before he could do anything, the Spatial Bag slipped out of his control, floated on the water surface, the opening autonomously unwinding with a massive sucking force emerging. All the dead fish were sucked inside, and then the Spatial Bag returned to its shriveled appearance, falling back into Wu Liuyi’s hands.
