Even though I’m level 20, the most damage that I managed to inflict was only 540+. This 868 points of damage must definitely belong to a level 25 player!
“Careful, don’t let them steal our target from us!”
Zhou Pengtai hurriedly chugged down potions to recover his HP. While doing so, he also made sure to remind Xue Feng of their objective.
However, upon speaking those words, everyone except Li Xing looked at him with disdain.
The look of disdain was especially visible from the two brothers, Mu Long and Mu Lin.
The reason behind their scorn was easy to comprehend. After all, if their savior had really intended on stealing the boss, why would they not let the Thorn Python kill them first before attacking?
Why would they go so far as to save them?
Moreover, what would they complain about even if the boss had been stolen from them? After all, the level 20 Thorn Python was not even their true objective.
Brilliant arcs of flame would illuminate the battlefield from time to time.
The HP of the Thorn Python was dropping rapidly, and every time it was hit, wisps of burnt smoke could be seen, accompanied by frenzied hisses!
871!
888!
923!
As the terrifying damage values popped out within their vision, Xue Feng’s party was at such a loss of words that they had even forgotten to consume their potions.
They stood there in a daze as if they were watching a performance.
Gradually, Zhou Pengtai’s expression also calmed down.
Damn.
Who knew that there would be a level 28 big shot in this dungeon too?
Forget it, as long as we don’t lose the level 25 Boss as well, it’ll all be fine.
Although Xue Feng had already recovered half of his HP, he did not intervene.
He had already given up.
However, like the others around him, he was extremely curious about who this mystery player was. After all, the python’s massive frame had completely obscured their savior’s figure.
Moreover, it also seemed like the savior had appeared from behind the Thorn Python. This prompted Xue Feng to wonder whether there were other passageways that he was unaware of.
While Xue Feng was deep in thought…
Bang.
A heavy boom rang out.
The Anaconda’s pool of blood burst into blue flames and turned into nothingness as its massive body slammed into the ground.
As white light began to dissipate.
Behind the Anaconda’s body, Xue Feng, Qiao Yi, and Mu Long, who had been rescued, were all looking forward to meeting their savior with great anticipation and gratitude.
Zhou Pengtai and Li Xing’s gazes were filled with curiosity and wariness.
As the Anaconda’s body completely dispersed the white specks of light that filled the air, a green and golden ray of light could be seen,
Once of the curtain of light had faded…
The party finally met eyes with their savior, who was a Mage.
Xue Feng as well as Zhou Pengtai, trembled violently like an earthquake.
This kind of shaking even seemed to have affected their voices.
At this moment, a series of shocked and astonished voices suddenly rang out.
“Huh?”
“Why is it you!”
“L-Little Su?!!”
…
The moment Su Chen’s figure appeared from behind the curtain of light, Xue Feng’s party, including Qiao Yi were all stunned.
Qiao Yi, who knew Su Chen’s true identity, was well aware of his strength. After all, he was the first and ever newbie among the hundreds of millions of players who had managed to solo the Wolf Lord.
He had also experienced his strength firsthand back when they were deterring the Mountain Bandits.
However, the strength that Su Chen had displayed this time had gone way beyond what he had previously displayed!
After all, the opponent this time was no Mountain Bandit with low Defense. This was an honest-to-good, level 20 Boss!
Is he for real!?
If Qiao Yi was already shocked to such an extent, the others could only be said to be faring even worse.
“This… This is impossible!”
Zhou Pengtai’s eyes were filled with shock. He could not imagine that the big shot he had acknowledged earlier was only level 13…
Wait a minute!
Since when did this guy reach level 15? !
Was this a joke?!
Xue Feng looked at the figure with his mouth agape.
In the end, he was too stunned to say anything.
At the same time, however, a smile was starting to form on his face that was growing wider and wider. After all, this meant that he had made the right decision to accept Su Chen into his party!
His plan could still proceed as planned!
Mu long and Mu Lin were even more shocked. They subconsciously looked at their own hands, wondering why they were unable to match Su Chen’s damage, despite being higher level than him.
Li Xing stuttered, “D-Didn’t you fall into the snake pit with Zhang Ming? H-How are you still…”
Li Xing immediately regretted his words.
As everyone present could clearly observe, Su Chen had more than enough strength to survive the ordeal in the snake pit. Sure, he might not be able to kill the Bosses…
Wait a minute, Su Chen is level 15…
“Don’t tell me you killed both level 15 Bosses alone!?”
Xue Feng noticed Su Chen’s level and he immediately exclaimed.
Upon hearing this possibility, Zhou Pengtai’s eyes instantly turned green.
“Yes, that’s right.”
Su Chen, who was still some distance from the party, heard the question and nodded correspondingly.
Everyone was shocked by how casually he had responded.
“Regardless, thank you for your assistance, Lit… No, Brother Su!”
Xue Feng exclaimed with a wide grin.
“Yes, Brother Su is really strong. I already knew that, but this still far surpasses my expectations!”
Qiao Yi grinned as well,
Mu Lin and Mu Long expressed their thanks too.
Although dying did not mean game over, the fact of the matter remained that they would lose both levels and potentially equipment too if they had died. It would undoubtedly be a huge loss.
Especially since it was so difficult to level up within Ark.
Zhou Pengtai and Li Xing remained silent throughout. In fact, Zhou Pengtai acted as if he was chatting with someone else via the chat feature. In short, he was turning a blind eye to the situation before him.
“Alright, so regarding the spoils… Huh? This boss is considered to be a party kill?”
Xue Feng was addressing Qiao Yi and the others when suddenly, he noticed that the system was asking him, the party leader, to distribute the rewards for defeating the level 20 Boss!
This…
Xue Feng clearly recalled Su Chen leaving the party.
These equipment should belong to Brother Su. After all, I should’ve received a notification had Su Chen killed the Boss while he was still part of the party.
After checking the system logs, Xue Feng realized that Zhang Ming and Su Chen had “left” the party due to different reasons.
There were several ways to leave a party in [ Ark ].
The first was for the party leader to disband the party or for the party members to leave voluntarily.
The second was if a party member had died and was not resurrected by a Grandmaster [ Gourdmaster ].

The third was when party members were too far apart. In such a scenario, the party member that was away from the party would be considered as having “left” the party. However, once they returned within the party leader’s range, they would automatically be re-added into the party.
Xue Feng finally made sense of the situation. Had he read the system prompt earlier, he would have quickly deducted who their mystery savior’s identity was.
However, it was normal not to have noticed. After all, he was too caught up in battle to be aware of the system’s happenings.
Everyone quickly reacted, but other than being pleasantly surprised that they had gained experience, they did not have any other thoughts. The biggest cut to the bounty had definitely belonged to Su Chen after all, and the rest would be up for Xue Feng to decide.
At this moment, however, Zhou Pengtai who was still pretending to be chatting with someone suddenly leaped forward..
