The white body with purple patterns of the strange beast lit up with a series of blood-red sparks and rays.

"Stand back!" The female player in charge of leading the players shouted loudly as she ran back.

​​

The players quickly began to move away from the boss, taking advantage of the opportunity when the beast was channeling the spell.

Craaack

The sound of a charged lightning bolt rang in the ears of every player or NPC nearby and, after channeling for two or three seconds, the boss finally raised its head and roared to the sky.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

A shower of red lightning bolts the size of a small child's arm shot out from the strange tiger's body, randomly striking everything within ten meters of it.

The most surprising thing was that houses, the ground, billboards; everything the red lightning touched were destroyed. Although the houses were not completely destroyed, they had varying levels of damage; collapsed roofs, destroyed doors, a half-broken wall, etc.

Destruction effect!

To destroy an object in the virtual world, no matter if it was a player or a monster, it had to possess a skill or an object with the Destruction effect. This also explained how the boss managed to destroy the city gate so quickly.

You should know that the gates of Eminentis City were a construction with at least 5,000,000 health points! It was precisely because of this that although the players were worried about failing, they at least believed that the gates could hold off the monsters long enough to reorganize a new raiding party and fight again.

However, no one was counting on the fact that in the middle of the wave of attacks, a monster would appear with the ability to destroy buildings and environments, completely ignoring the health bar of the objects!

...

The red rays released by the boss also hit more than a dozen players who did not manage to escape in time; all of them were killed without exception and without even being able to fight back.

Roar!

The saber-toothed tiger roared loudly as if to demonstrate its might after killing all the defenders blocking its path. Immediately after that, taking the opportunity of all the players shuddering in panic, the boss began to run deeper and deeper into the city.

"Stop for me!"

A shout that was filled with fury and shame shook the souls of all the players. However, none of them managed to identify the person.

Wooosh!

All the players saw was a flash of blue lightning flashing past them and chasing the boss at a terrifying speed.

This person was Nangong Lei, who finally broke free from the wave of monsters holding him back. Although he was furious at what happened, Nangong Lei left several people in charge of guarding the gate without allowing a single more monster to pass through. Only after making sure that the 4th wave of monsters was close to being defeated, Nangong Lei rushed into the city to hunt down the monster that broke through.

Swoosh!

The boss's speed was fast, but Nangong Lei's speed using his movement skill was even faster. After chasing for about twenty seconds, Nangong Lei finally overtook the strange purple and white tiger and got in its way.

"Damn beast! I said stop!" Nangong Lei's eyes were wide open and he roared as if he had gone mad.

As if understanding his words, the boss roared again, trying to intimidate its enemy. However, its roar had little or no effect.

"Hahahaha!" Nangong Lei began to laugh out loud. Deep blue lightning began to cover his body slowly, from his feet to his head. When Nangong Lei's body was completely covered, he talked coldly, "Let me see if when I crush you, you can continue to roar!"

[Ding!.... Possession of the Lightning Spirit activated. For the next sixty seconds your Attack Speed increases by 500%, your Movement Speed increases by 200%, you return 50% of the damage received as lightning damage, your attacks have a 20% chance to stun the enemy for 2-4 seconds. Lightning resistance increased by 20%.]

Possession of the Lightning Spirit was Nangong Lei's most powerful skill. This skill, like Yang Tian's Immovable Bastion skill, was a skill closely linked to his power in the real world. In reality, Nangong Lei did not want to use it as his mind would be overloaded so he would probably have some problems in the real world for a day or two while the side effects passed. But in the face of such a monster, he had no choice.

Knowing that time was his enemy, Nangong Lei immediately started to attack.

At a speed that could only be described as shocking, Nangong Lei appeared next to the boss and, with his skill that allowed him to attack with both hands at the same time as a bonus, in conjunction with his terrifying attack speed, Nangong Lei began to swing his daggers.

-350... -349... -353... -352... -345... - 351

-346... -356... -350... -343... -350... -349

By using two skills at the same time, Nangong Lei could attack 12 times per second! Naturally, this was possible because Double Lightning Strikes allowed Nangong Lei to attack twice per second along with his attack speed increased by 500%. Although the mana consumption was a bit problematic, Nangong Lei was a professional player; there was no way he would make a mistake like draining all of his mana without taking care of the cooldown times of the potions.

In just one second, Nangong Lei's damage exceeded 3000. However, Nangong Lei knew that this was far from enough... Because unlike the other players, Nangong Lei, who was currently level fifteen, could actually identify the monster.

[Purple Wings Baroth -

Grade: EMPEROR

Level: 25

HP: 296,855 / 300,000

Description: A strange and very powerful beast with great affinity to lightning. Since it is not yet fully mature, its wings are not powerful enough to allow it to fly for too long. Upon reaching adulthood it can fly at heights of up to 10 meters.

Skills: ????]

Since Nangong Lei possessed the basic inspection skill, he could only obtain so much information about the beast. In reality, inspection skills were extremely rare; the fact that Xie Feng had acquired his Soul Eyes was a stroke of great luck for him and a great advantage in a battle that almost no player could take advantage of.

But, although Nangong Lei could not see the full information due to the large level difference, which increased the effect of the beast grade, he could see the terrifying amount of health that the Baroth possessed.

Suddenly, the Baroth's mouth opened wide and after a small crack, a reddish flash of lightning flew towards Nangong Lei.

Although Nangong Lei could avoid it with his current speed, he let the attack hit him.

-1222

-611

The first four digit figure was the damage Nangong Lei received and the second was the reflected damage that the Purple Wings Baroth received.

Nangong Lei drank a health potion and continued attacking without stopping.

When the boss attacked within the ten seconds that the red health potion was on cooldown, Nangong Lei would dodge in a hurry. When he could afford to be hit, he would let the beast's attack reach him to reduce the monster's HP even more.

The battle continued amidst roars, crackling lightning, and small explosions.

The only thing the players could see was a deep blue shadow flickering rapidly and hitting the boss practically one-sidedly. Nangong Lei was moving so fast that no player present could see his silhouette clearly. Nangong Lei's demonstration of power was a big wake-up call for everyone; every player present realized that even though Nangong Lei was defeated by Shiva earlier, he wasn't even using his full strength!

Actually, many players even began to believe that Nangong Lei could actually defeat Shiva if he used the strange skill that he was using to fight the boss.

After fifty seconds, Nangong Lei's face turned black as the bottom of a pot. Finally, after fighting for almost a minute, Nangong Lei was forced to admit that he could not currently defeat Purple Wings Baroth.

[Purple Wings Baroth -

Grade: EMPEROR

Level: 25

HP: 124,057 / 300,000]

After attacking without stopping for even a single second and after returning half of the damage he received when he was attacked, Nangong Lei managed to lower the boss's health bar by more than half. To achieve this, Nangong Lei almost died on several occasions when he was almost hit by the boss's skills which, since he did not know them, were unpredictable. However, thanks to the great increase in speed that his Possession of the Lightning Spirit skill gave him, he managed to evade the danger at the last moment.

Although it was a great achievement worthy of praise, it was not enough.

After ten seconds, Nangong Lei claimed approximately 35,000 more life points from the monster. At the same time, the effect of his Possession of the Lightning Spirit skill ended and it went into cooldown.

Nangong Lei's face became extremely pale; he was like a ghost, without a drop of blood. His body floundered as if he did not have enough strength and he barely managed to stand up.

The only reason why the Purple Wings Baroth did not kill Nangong Lei yet was that fortunately for him, his last attack managed to stun the monster.

[Ding!... Warning! Severe mental exhaustion detected! For safety reasons, you will be forcibly disconnected in 5... 4 ...]

At the same time that Nangong Lei was in trouble, an announcement from the system that was his savior but also represented his defeat, humiliation, and the hatred he would receive from all over China rang in his ears.
