Chapter 554: Gold, Critical Hit

“Tsst!”

After having its energy shield destroyed and its body covered in poison liquid in an instant, the Quasi-Boss Cave Spider Queen was very angry.

It had not been moving while standing on the boulder platform, but now, it had started to move quickly.

It opened its mouth filled with dark red poisonous teeth before letting out a violent shriek. A ball of white energy began forming very quickly inside its mouth. It was unlike the small-radius energy ball that it had been releasing earlier.

A tinge of green that was the same color as the poison liquid released by the Cave Spider Queen was mixed within the bright white ball of energy being condensed inside the Cave Spider Queen’s mouth.

It was clear that, after becoming angry, the Cave Spider Queen was preparing to use its “Ultimate” skill.

Even though it was highly likely that an ultimate skill like that would kill all living creatures within its attack range, including its own species, it no longer cared.

The Cave Spider Queen moved very quickly. On the wall angled at 90 degrees, it moved just as agile and quickly as it did on the ground, resulting in most of the two rounds of Spray Beetles attack missed.

After three seconds, the white ball of energy inside the Cave Spider Queen’s mouth turned green and its body suddenly stopped moving.

It was clear that by then, its “Ultimate” skill’s preparation was complete.

“Tsst!”

The Cave Spider Queen opened its mouth and shrieked. It glared hatefully at the group of Spray Beetles underneath it.

However, as the Cave Spider Queen strolling about on the boulder wall glared hatefully down at the group of Spray Beetles, unbeknownst to the Cave Spider Queen, 700 meters away from it on top of a cliff, a pair of eyes were also staring straight at it.

“Now!” Feng Luo’s finger was placed on the trigger of the sniper rifle. The gun tip of Wings of Death was constantly moving as it followed the movements of the Cave Spider Queen. However, because the creature was moving so fast, Feng Luo was not confident that he’d make the shot.

The moment the Cave Spider Queen’s constantly moving body ceased moving, Feng Luo’s finger pressed quickly on the Wings of Death trigger.

“Bang!”

A 14.5mm B-Grade Double Armor-piercing Round with added acceleration from the “Energy Accelerator” reached the speed of 1,500m per second as it flew in the air. Within half a second, it had traveled across half the space of the valley.

From a tilted upward angle, it struck the side of the head of the Cave Spider Queen.

“Will it succeed?” After his shot hit the target, Feng Luo stared at a spot above the Cave Spider Queen’s head.

The Destruction Coefficient of Wings of Death was B-, and under the effects of the Legend of Black Gold ring, it had reached B. Additionally, there was the 40% bonus of the Double Armor-piercing Round. With all of those factors combined together, this shot’s destructive capacity even exceeded Ghost Weep.

If it were a melee type Quasi-Boss, it might have been able to block the first shot in this situation. However, an Energy Type monster like the Cave Spider Queen did not have such tough defenses.

“Boom!”

“-720!”

The first explosion of the Double Armor-piercing Round created a blood hole on the tough head of the Level 40 Cave Spider Queen, and the hard alloy core within the bullet accelerated due to the explosion and continued on to penetrate into the hole.

The bullet succeeded in breaking through the defense of the Cave Spider Queen.

The only question was whether the shot was enough to deal a Fatal Damage and disrupt the Cave Spider Queen’s “Ultimate” skill.

“-5655!”

After the bullet entered the Cave Spider Queen’s head, a damage number appeared in Feng Luo’s sight.

It was not red, it was only yellow.

The moment Feng Luo saw the color of the damage number, his heart sank.

To affect and cancel a Boss monster’s attack, the attack had to inflict a Fatal Damage.

If the attack did not deal a Fatal Damage, then the Quasi-Boss’ ultimate skill attack was probably going to instantly clear out at least a hundred beetles.

In particular, the hateful eyes on its abdomen were clearly staring straight at the Spray Beetles under 24K’s control. There was no need to talk more about the ultimate skill’s intended target.

“No, it’s not yellow. It’s a gold damage number.” However, as Feng Luo’s heart sank, his eyes suddenly twitched.

He noticed that the damage number was not a yellow Weak Point damage; instead, it was a more eye-catching golden damage number with a red border.

Gold! Critical Attack damage.

Critical hit. For most players, it was something that one may encounter by luck only.

Most of the time, one may not even deal a critical attack in one week’s time, not to mention achieving one on a Quasi-Boss monster. As such, most people wouldn’t even think about it.

However, Feng Luo was different. He had dealt critical attacks before. It was not the first time he dealt a critical attack on a Quasi-Boss monster. He had even succeeded in dealing gold critical attacks on Boss monsters before.

However, the critical attacks that he got in the past were mostly due to luck.

It was not luck this time. Instead, it was his stats; more precisely, it was his equipment’s stats.

The rare attribute of Wings of Death: When dealing Fatal Damage on non-humanoid creatures, there is a 30% chance of dealing a “Critical attack.”

The attribute was also effective on Boss-class monsters.

The previous shot was a critical damage; moreover, the gold damage numbers had red borders, this meant that it was not just a critical attack, but a Fatal Damage critical attack.

Since it was a Fatal Damage, it was natural that it had canceled the Cave Spider Queen’s ultimate skill attack.

“Boom!”

The green poisonous ball of energy inside the Cave Spider Queen’s mouth exploded the moment the Cave Spider Queen lost control of it and spat it out.

The powerful impact of the blast evaporated a bunch of Cave Spiders within a 20-meter radius. Even a Commander Grade Cave Spider that was close to the blast location lost its energy shield completely while its body was thrown by the shockwave into the beetle group beneath it. In an instant, it was charged down by a group of Bladed Beetles.

“-9867!”

Of course, the Cave Spider Queen was not exactly feeling great. Although the poison from the explosion did not affect it, the pure explosion damage had distorted its mouth entirely. One side of its poisonous teeth had been blown to bits.

Above its head, a damage number nearing 10,000 appeared. It was probable that it would not be able to continue using energy type attacks for a while.

However, although it was quite severely injured, this Quasi-Boss that had now entered a state of rage had decided to ignore the group of beetles that it had been hating. It raised its bloodied head suddenly, and the six purple eyes on the ghastly and odd face on its abdomen moved as they stared hatefully towards Feng Luo’s direction.

“It’s coming!” Feng Luo thought. However, his face did not indicate that he was panicking, as this was within his expectations.

Most Boss-class monsters, apart from possessing amazingly powerful long-range and area-of-effect attacks, they’re also incredibly perceptive in knowing who was attacking it.

Even though Feng Luo attacked from over 700 meters away, he still knew that if he were to deal a Fatal Damage, it was highly likely that he would have to take on the aggro of the Cave Spider Queen.

The aggro of a Quasi-Boss monster also meant the aggro of hundreds or even thousands of its minions.

“Eh? Why…” However, what happened next took Feng Luo by surprise.

He initially thought that the consequence of his shot was that the Cave Spiders would ignore the beetles and crawl up the cliff towards him so that they could cut him up to avenge their boss’ anger.

Feng Luo was also thinking about how he should deal with the situation according to his plan.

However, the situation that ensued exceeded his expectations. All of the Cave Spiders inside the valley, including the Elite and Commander Grade Cave Spiders, did not change their behaviors at all, continuing their battles against the beetles.

Instead, a large figure that was over ten meters long began moving. It crawled along the 90 degrees vertical cliff wall, all eight of its over seven meters long limbs swung and moved so fast that vague afterimages were left behind. It was moving towards Feng Luo at a frightening speed.

The Quasi-Boss Cave Spider Queen moved itself.

This was a treatment that caught Feng Luo by surprise.
