Boom! Boom!
Boulders as big as millstones fell from high altitude one after another, making loud noises when they hit the ground.
After the boulder hit the ground, it shattered into pieces and disappeared without a trace.
Gu Ming flexibly used his body skills to dodge the falling boulders.
The damage caused by the boulder after being hit is very high. If it is hit four or five times, it may die directly.
Fortunately, the boulders did not fall continuously. They only lasted for half a minute each time, but they would come in waves every three or four minutes. Coupled with the summons of the fallen undead every five minutes, this immediately slowed down Gu Ming's output.
Soon, he was accidentally hit by boulders several times and had to temporarily withdraw from the battle circle to recover the blood.
"In this case, with my displacement, it is difficult to completely avoid the boulder..."
Gu Ming frowned and muttered to himself.
He did not lose heart, but instead had a burning fire in his eyes.
He refused to admit defeat in the face of setbacks and forced himself to perform stronger and better operations. This was an important reason why he became a billion-mouse idol in the first place!
"I'm hiding!"
"I'll hide again!"
Facing the boulder falling again, Gu Ming used [Shadow Frog Step] to its extreme, jumping left and right dexterously.
Unknowingly, I discovered a few more operating techniques for this skill.
Just after he narrowly escaped being hit by a boulder again, he suddenly received a prompt from the system.
"Congratulations, your [Shadow Frog Step] has been upgraded to [Shadow Step]!"
"Has your skills been upgraded?"
Gu Ming felt happy when he saw this prompt.
Oh, let me go, I forgot that this happened!
Originally, his [Shadow Frog Step] was already on the verge of upgrading. Faced with falling boulders, he continued to use this skill, and finally accumulated enough proficiency in this skill to successfully advance to the next level.
From the original C level, it was upgraded to B level!
Gu Ming took the time to quickly glance at the skill introduction of [Shadow Step].
Compared with [Shadow Frog Walk], this skill consumes less energy and has a shorter CD. Players can also continue to turn it on, and the skill will be released when actively attacking.
At the same time, [Shadow Step] is performed faster, and the method of use is completely different from [Shadow Frog Step].
To put it simply, the skill of Shadow Frog Step comes from [Frog Step], which is dropped from the toad monster. After using it, the player needs to jump left and right like a frog.
Even when Gu Ming advanced to the [Shadow Frog Step], he still didn't get rid of the left and right jumping footwork.
But [Shadow Step] has no such restrictions, you can jump however you want!
It can be said that his displacement ability has been greatly improved!
"And the name Shadow Step is obviously much better than Shadow Frog Step!" Gu Ming was ecstatic.
The most important thing is that skills such as [Three Chains of Swords] and [Shadow Wind] are all upgrades from the assassin's professional skills, and other players can also obtain them through special missions.
But [Shadow Step] is an upgraded skill of [Frog Step], which is derived from the proficiency of Gu Ming's Mind Eye skill.
Only one player, Gu Ming, has this skill!
This is the footwork that belongs exclusively to his Lone Star Destiny!
Gu Ming was thinking about these things in his mind, and when he saw that his health bar was full, he started to kill the Balrog again with confidence.
Boom! Boom!
With the roar of the Balrog, the tomb shook again, and the boulder fell head-on.
But this time when he used [Shadow Step], he completely lost the restraint of jumping left and right. He moved forward, backward, left, and right, dexterously, and easily avoided the falling boulders!
With skill upgrades and his advanced operation, as long as you are careful when the boulder falls, it will no longer be a threat!
When Gu Ming got the chance, he activated the [Shadow Wind] skill at the same time.
Although this skill is still a little far away from being upgraded, there is no doubt that Gu Ming can accumulate a lot of proficiency by taking advantage of the opportunity to attack the Balrog.
I have to say that Yan Mo is a good comrade who sacrifices himself for others...
Not counting the [One Sword, Three Combinations] that Gu Ming learned through gold, the process of fighting against the Balrog made him understand the [Basic Fire Resistance], and he also upgraded [Shadow Step]. This is definitely the best target!
With the help of [Shadow Step], although Gu Ming's progress was much slower, it was enough to complete the kill within the stipulated time.
The Balrog showed no other attack methods during the remaining time.
The blood bar decreased smoothly.
With fifty minutes left, it only had one hundred thousand blood left.
With thirty minutes left, it still had 60,000 blood.
When fifteen minutes were left, it only had thirty thousand blood left.
At this time, Gu Ming took the time to summon the little zombie Liuli.
Be prepared to let her gain some experience and health when she kills her at the end.
Liuli is a special battle pet in the system, and the experience required for upgrading is no less than that of a ten-level player. If she can gain experience, Gu Ming will definitely not miss it.
The summoned little zombie girl had no fear of the terrifying Balrog. She exclaimed "Wow" and started jumping up and down to cheer for Gu Ming.
The mission time quickly came to the last minute.
Time goes backwards second by second.
Gu Ming concentrated all his attention and continued to deal damage to the demon.
The last five thousand blood, four thousand blood.
Trigger a critical strike, beautiful!
The last two thousand blood.
one thousand!
With thirty seconds left on the clock, Gu Ming completely killed the Balrog with one strike!
"Hoho-"
The Balrog statue began to tremble violently, and along with the shaking of the entire tomb, cracks appeared on the statue, and then began to crumble bit by bit, turning into pieces of rubble burning with red flames.
These stones quickly dissipated without a trace.
Only a red stone like a heart remained.
In addition, there is a drop of blood sealed within the crystal.
These are the items dropped by Balrog: Curse of Balrog (dungeon item), a drop of mysterious blood (bloodline awakening item).
Gu Ming quickly put these two things away.
He has gained a lot of experience, and the experience bar at level 17 has gone from 15% to 95%.
Although the little zombie Liuli failed to upgrade, Zombie Ancestor's health tank has accumulated to 92.56%.
Experience gives quite a lot.
But... Balrog is also a level 78 BOSS after all. After killing him, he dropped two mission items. Isn't it too petty?
Gu Ming checked the mysterious blood in his heart and complained in his heart.
Why did you drop some gold coins?
Just as this idea came to his mind, suddenly——
"Announcement: Congratulations to Lone Star Destiny for killing the Balrog and receiving the 'God Slayer' medal!"
Gu Ming: "!"
Damn it... Medal!
Medals are similar to achievement titles and are a special reward.
Obtained when players complete some special tasks or kill, they often have some special amplification effects, and their gold content is no lower than achievement titles!
Following the announcement, a medal appeared and fell into Gu Ming's hands.
[God Killer]: Decorative item, current level 1, wearing this medal, when facing enemy targets related to the devil, the damage will be increased by 30%!
Gu Ming had killed the Orochi projection BOSS twice before. The Orochi and the Balrog were actually of the same rank, but Gu Ming only killed the projection of the Orochi, and now he killed the Balrog's body.
That's how I got this medal.
I was wrong, Enma is indeed a good comrade!
This is more affordable than rewards such as gold coins and equipment!
The Balrog is the Demon God of the Abyss after all. Although he is sealed, his identity is there after all!
"I didn't expect that before I got the title of 'Evil God's Nemesis', I got a medal of God Slayer first... tsk tsk."
…
Outside the Catacombs.
The announcement message can be received by all players in the area, so the Olympus Guild players who were guarding outside the tomb saw this message immediately.
"God-Slayer Medal?"
"Lone Star Destiny!?"
"He, he killed the Balrog? Falk, how did you do this?"
These abyss players exclaimed.
As for Zeus, the president of the Olympus Guild, a prompt appeared in front of his eyes.
"Reminder: Your bloodline awakening mission failed!"
His bloodline mission is to awaken Balrog, complete Balrog's test, and inherit Balrog's bloodline... Now that Balrog has been killed by Lone Star Destiny, this bloodline mission will naturally fail.
For this task, after taking the professional advancement trial, he led a team to farm undead monsters in the underground tomb...
"Lone Star Destiny!"
It turns out that the Chinese player is Lone Star Destiny!
Mazefak!
"President, it seems we can enter the big tomb!" A player from the Olympus Guild said at this time.
Zeus: "Let's go into the big tomb... This big tomb will be his burial place!"
