Chapter 1095: Chapter 153: Why is this BOSS targeting the healers first?

This time, Longjing Tea did not teleport everyone out.

He precisely controlled the Delicious Wind Goose and Lin Yiyi, positioning them right next to the Flame Demon.

— Of course, he wouldn’t assume that their eight-person team, lacking even a single Wizard specialized in destructive spells, could launch a sneak attack and instantly take down that seemingly powerful BOSS.

And based on the basic logic of general BOSS battles—dodge what comes and turn fire on what appears; in the face of multiple BOSSes, they should undoubtedly shift focus first, prioritize taking down the easiest enemy to prevent more variables from arising in the battle.

The Shadow Demon had already burrowed into the shadows.

Not so easily killed.

But the Flame Demon was different...

With the Decree from Longjing Tea, Lin Yiyi appeared in front of the Flame Demon in the blink of an eye.

The solid steel club in her hand transformed into a spear—after a brief charging period, it struck like lightning toward the enemy’s chest!

— But the Flame Demon did not resist at all.

When the steel club pierced his chest, it was burned red by magma. But when Lin Yiyi tried to pull it out, it became nearly impossible... The extremely viscous magma glued the semi-melted steel club in place.

Sizzle...

Lin Yiyi failed to strike a second time and attempted to grip the steel club to pull it out.

The palm of her hand sizzled as if it were meat searing on a hot iron plate.

At that moment, three small gems at her cuff suddenly lit up one after another.

First, a high-voltage current burst from her cuff, creating a hole in the lava humanoid’s chest with a crackling electric spark on the Flame Demon’s body. Then, a surge of cold air entered the hole.

Lin Yiyi suddenly let go of the iron rod—

With the strange force that emerged, it stabbed further into the enemy.

Under the intertwining of extreme heat and extreme cold, the refined steel rod exploded suddenly—with the cold air, embedded within the Flame Demon’s body. The electrical sparks also jumped back and forth among these iron shards...

— The Disruptive School’s [High Voltage Touch].

— The Disabling School’s [Cold Touch].

— The Idol School’s [Lock-opening Spell].

These were all lowest-level spells.

All so basic they could be used at will by a "Wizard Apprentice."

But when combined by Lin Yiyi, their power was enough to inflict severe damage on the demonized fallen in an instant!

The Flame Demon let out a pained wail and fell to his knees.

And behind him, the silently-arrived Delicious Wind Goose was already slashing down with a solemn expression the moment she was teleported.

This was Delicious Wind Goose’s strongest strike—

— [Hammerhead Strike]!

The short sword rippling with pure white sword qi, descended upon the back of the Flame Demon’s head.

It fell like a hammer onto an anvil, emitting a bell-like deep booming sound!

In the instant the battle began, the two cooperated to eliminate the Flame Demon instantly!

At that moment, the Shadow Demon chose to switch targets—

He didn’t assist the Flame Demon, but instead became a blade with spikes, assaulting the humanoid-controlled Chocolate!

Chocolate inherited the high-speed reflexes of feline creatures.

Before her mind could react, her body instinctively tensed and leapt backward—

However, the shadow blade unfolded even faster than her, piercing Chocolate’s body with just a slight stab.

Just then, Chocolate’s body suddenly stiffened.

As if frozen on the spot, she completely lost the ability to resist.

And at that moment, the previously hidden Shadow Demon appeared in front of Defu.

His left hand, transformed into thick shadow thorns, pressed against Chocolate’s belly, impaling her.

Her small stature was such that the Shadow Demon merely lifted his left arm, hoisting her entire body into the air.

And the next instant, Chocolate’s back burst open!

Countless crazy shadow thorns, akin to insects, crawled out from her back. They were identical to the thorns formed by the Shadow Demon’s left arm, just slightly narrower.

Despite lacking vocal cords, those shadow thorns jostled each other and emitted a screeching, sour sound, akin to nails scraping a blackboard.

Chocolate, having previously ingested the Holy Sheep Milk and thus possessing a rapidly self-healing body, became nourishment for those ever-proliferating thorns.

And at this time, it happened to coincide with the moment when the Flame Demon was about to be struck by the Delicious Wind Goose.

"—[Dodge quickly]!"

Because he was focused on the Flame Demon, Longjing Tea was slightly late in issuing a Decree, forcibly commanding Husky and Spicy Thirteen who were right next to Defu to dodge the thorns that kept proliferating.

Although he wasn’t quite sure of the thorns’ specific abilities...

Longjing Tea could tell that they should at least possess the ability to locate and control, and maybe even a trigger-happy instakill ability.

All in all, not making contact with them was the most correct choice!

While the two Wizards were pushing back, the kitten-formed Defu also roared and pounced at this moment.

In the absence of Lin Yiyi, she could serve as a temporary tank!

With an earth-shaking tiger roar, Defu’s body inflated like being pumped with air, transfiguring into a gigantic fierce beast that exceeding two meters in height even on all fours.

Defu’s eyes shone bright like stars, her paws ablaze with a light purple translucent flame, her mouth exhaling mist, her limbs long and powerful. She resembled less of a tiger or lion, but more like a colossal, otherworldly feline creature.

Her attacks were extremely swift; her claws struck alternately forward.

Rather than resembling the predation of a beast, it was more like some kind of boxing or claw technique.

She effortlessly shredded the shadowy thorns lunging at Spicy Thirteen and Husky... yet wasn’t immobilized as if by chocolate.

She once again leaped towards the Shade Demon—who maintained his posture unmoved, raising his right hand to form a shadow shield in front of himself.

And immediately, Husky began chanting an idol spell.

"The day the Goddess of Cup turned the golden cup upside down, the holy blood spilled across the palace—"

As a red halo spread outwards, the sandy ground gradually became moist.

Afterwards, dark red blood bubbled up from the ground.

A fountain of blood erupted without warning, soaking the Shade Demon and the chocolate he held aloft!

Chocolate’s body began accelerating its healing, while the skin of the Shade Demon emitted a hissing corrosive sound.

The situation seemed overwhelmingly favorable, with success on both fronts.

However, just at this moment.

A Hand of Sand suddenly emerged from the ground, grabbing Ah Dian who was at the very back of the group!

"She is your reliance that emboldens you to challenge me..."

As Poppy’s multilayered voice echoed in the void.

Ah Dian withered away at a visible rate... much like a wilting flower.

Her skin turned dry and cracked, not just water, but her very life force and energy were being sucked away by a strange power.

Longjing Tea’s expression suddenly stiffened.

...If the BOSS starts by cutting off the healer, how are we supposed to fight?

Despite the dire situation, he didn’t give up.

"—[Survive]!"

He issued a Decree towards Ah Dian: "Hang in there... [Awaken]!"

[Decree: Immortality], and [Decree: Clarity].

These were high-level silver-ranked Decree spells, consuming a lot of mana.

But their effects were quite obvious... Ah Dian’s health was locked, and her spirit forcibly invigorated.

Her trembling, desiccated and cracked fingers lifted up, casting a glowing light upon herself.

Longjing Tea, who had been casting spells frequently since the start of the battle, now had two-thirds of his mana burned away.

And at this moment, the battle had only just begun six or seven seconds ago...

Longjing Tea made up his mind.

"—[Look at me]!"

He issued a loud Decree, changing the effect of his next single-target Decree spell to an area effect: "[Survive]!

"—[Mutual Truce]!"

He loudly issued a Decree, using the spell once again.

An invisible force blasted the Shade Demon and Poppy away; and pulled Delicious Goose and Lin Yiyi, who were more than a hundred meters away, straight back. A wall of wind rose between the two sides.

Chocolate was thus rescued.

Her whole body shook as if struck by electricity, even her legs seemed to weaken. However, under the sanctified blood’s immersion, her abdominal wound was healing rapidly.

Yet Ah Dian was captured by that Hand of Sand to the other side.

But even this was within Longjing Tea’s expectation—

"You take over command!"

He slapped Spicy Thirteen who was by his side and used the final Decree spell on Ah Dian:

"—[I am you]!"
