"Damn, this healing speed is much faster than my Priest skill!"
Lin Xiu was a little surprised. No wonder the Boss was immune to low-level debuffs.
Its physique was too strong.
Under his watchful gaze, the Plague Mantis cleaned up its mouthpart and antennae. After doing everything, the Boss turned around and stared at Lin Xiu with its compound eyes.
Glancing at his half-depleted mana bar, Lin Xiu could not help sighing in his heart.
It seemed that he would not be able to participate in a long battle before he completely solved the problem of his low mana limit.
Chirp chirp!
The Boss rubbed its wings again, like a horn that had started a battle, and rushed towards Lin Xiu with an indomitable aura.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Xiu's gaze became firm again.
"Since I can't use my skills frequently, I'll use normal attacks to kill you!"
After saying that, Lin Xiu once again released a double jump, dodging the Boss's attack.
Just as he was about to use a barrage of attacks on the big mantis, the body in mid-air suddenly stiffened, and a burst of intense pain came from within his body, making him almost unable to even hold onto his weapon.
"Pfft… Ah!"
A fishy sweetness surged up his throat, and his entire body trembled violently as if he had suffered a stroke. Before Lin Xiu could react, a warm current surged up, making him spit out a large mouthful of deep red blood!
[Hint: You have received damage from the Hidden Boss's Plague Origin skill. Your HP has been reduced by 55 points.]
A System notification suddenly sounded in his mind. Lin Xiu, whose body kept falling, finally understood the source of the problem.
He wanted to adjust his body in the air so that he could maintain a standing posture when he landed.
However, the excruciating pain that was like a knife cutting through his entire body caused his thoughts to slow down and his body to lose control.
"F*ck, I was tricked!"
His body fell heavily on the ground, his internal organs were shaken until they seemed to have shifted, making Lin Xiu so painful that he almost bent into a shrimp.
He struggled to stand up, but at the same time, he kept persuading himself to calm down.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but Lin Xiu still controlled his painful body to roll to the side.
Whoosh!
The sharp front claw that was like a sickle suddenly fell, stabbing into the ground where Lin Xiu had been lying.
The Plague Mantis lost its patience after its attack missed. It immediately released the area-of-effect skill, Earth Shaker!
Lin Xiu, who had rolled to his feet, had not even had the time to consume the two Blood Storage Fruits. He had just opened his System Backpack when he felt the surrounding earth shake.
The two front claws of the Hidden Boss in front of him kept hitting the ground. The terrifying shock wave made Lin Xiu instantly freeze on the spot, falling into a stunned state where he could not move or attack.
Seeing the situation, the Plague Mantis immediately became excited. It spread its eight legs and fiercely pounced toward Lin Xiu!
It opened its sharp and terrifying mouthpart, revealing its upper and lower jaws and whiskers.
As for Lin Xiu, he was unable to attack or dodge because he had entered a stunned state. He could only watch helplessly as the other party pounced on him.
Two seconds was very short, only enough for one breath. Two seconds was also very long, enough for the Hidden Boss to attack several times.
It seemed like an extremely long time had passed. When Lin Xiu completely woke up, an unbearable pain spread throughout his entire body.
He immediately released his Savage Roar skill to reduce the impact of the pain on him. At the same time, he glared at the Boss that was close to him. With the help of the Double Jump skill, his body quickly rose and pushed him ten meters away.
Lowering his head to check his injuries, Lin Xiu was surprised to find that his Silver Thread Forged Armor had been torn apart by the Boss while he was in a stunned state just now. The flesh inside was a mess, and blood was flowing out. It was obvious that he had suffered a serious injury.
In order to survive, at the crucial moment, he put on all the seven or eight pieces of equipment that Wan Zhuoyun had traded for. While his physique increased, his defense also increased effectively.
Lin Xiu's interface defense had already reached an astonishing 28 points.
Therefore, the Boss's bite only dealt 65 damage to him.
However, even so, Lin Xiu's HP had dropped to less than half, and he still had a bleeding debuff.
"I have to finish it off within 30 seconds. Otherwise, I definitely won't be able to withstand the next time it uses the Plague Origin skill!"
Understanding the current situation, the nervousness and sense of danger in Lin Xiu's heart had already risen to the extreme.
He had no time to waste. If he missed the chance, what awaited him was a thunderous blow from the Hidden Boss.
If he really died here, how could he help the family regain its glory? How could he investigate his father's disappearance? How could he face his mother who had raised him?
At this moment, Lin Xiu's adrenaline was soaring. Although in the era of data, this state would not increase his attributes, it was enough to make Lin Xiu's perception more sensitive and weaken pain to a certain extent.
"Bastard, die!" Lin Xiu roared. Under the threat of death and the boost of adrenaline, his speed and condition reached their peak.
Chirp chirp!
The Plague Mantis flapped its wings again, then moved its eight legs and charged over like a raging bull.
Jumping with all his might, Lin Xiu easily dodged the opponent's sickle swing, and the axe blade in his hand ruthlessly chiseled into the opponent's skull!
He already had no possibility of retreating. Under every second, Lin Xiu used up all the strength in his body with each attack.
With 19 points of Agility, his body was like a dancing butterfly. He dodged the attacks of the praying mantis without any error and continued to deal damage to the Boss.
This kind of fighting style that almost risked his life allowed him to no longer be restrained in battle.
Even if he had to squeeze out the last bit of magic power, he would deal a heart-wrenching blow to the Plague Mantis!
As time passed, damage figures kept appearing above the mantis's head.
Lin Xiu seemed to have entered a state of flow. Before the Hidden Boss could raise its arm, he could already guess the direction of the other party's next attack.
His clothes were soaked in blood. Lin Xiu was like a God of Death on the battlefield. Every attack was not sloppy, like a veteran who had been on the battlefield for a long time.
Under Lin Xiu's frenzied attacks, the Hidden Boss did not even have the chance to parry.
It continuously waved its front legs, wanting to cut Lin Xiu in half. However, the other party was as slippery as a loach. Every time he swung its claws, the target disappeared without a trace before the claw landed.
The Plague Mantis's HP kept decreasing, and it felt extremely aggrieved. It kept using its skills, but it was still useless.
It could only watch helplessly as its HP kept decreasing!
As time passed, a mournful cry could be heard from time to time in the dark cave.
The Boss's huge body stomped on the ground, but it did not touch Lin Xiu at all.
