At first glance, the attributes of this boss may seem ordinary, hardly befitting the title of a 1-star boss. But coupled with its pets, special weapons, and skills, this boss is undoubtedly a lethal powerhouse. p>

In the past life, the Troll Patrol made their name in the war between Drywood Fortress and Kael’Dan on the Eagle Nest Mountain. They annihilated countless players and left unscathed, showing his frightful power.

Many players were petrified of the short spear in the hands of the Troll Patrol. It was indeed a powerful weapon that claimed countless lives without fail.

Of the monsters that players despised, the Trolls ranked top. Firstly, the Priests, as they were remarkably hard to kill. Even on low health, they would transform into the spectral form of their deities, becoming incredibly powerful. The higher the level of the Priest, the more divine power they could summon, making them very difficult to deal with.

The second type was Hunters, specifically those that wielded short spears.

One of the most prominent was the Troll Chieftain of the Dark Camp. He was a branch of Hunters, known for their uncanny skill with the Dark Spear. Hunters were proficient in survival and assassination, making them very cunning and formidable in war.

The patrol was a hunter. It was only after the players’ levels increased and they invaded the Drywood Fortress that they managed to defeat him. A top-tier little artifact known from the “Little Amazon” was dropped, which left a deep impression on Li Yao.

Li Yao crept onto the platform and immediately cast a Wall of Mist to block the entrance to the terrace and cave.

The Patrol, who was gazing at the sky, felt something and immediately turned around.

The Bird of Prey, sitting on a giant tree grooming its feathers, screeched sharply, charging at Li Yao like a bolt of lightning.

Bang…

Li Yao’s Fire Eagle also swooped down, its Eagle Pouncing directly colliding with the Bird of Prey.

Both boss level pets clawed at each other fiercely. The metallic sound from the Fire Eagle resonated while the Bird of Prey was already covered in blood.

Both were boss level pets, but considering the Bird of Prey was a 1-star boss with a higher level, it had superior attributes to the Fire Eagle.

However, as a machine, although the Fire Eagle would still take significant damage unless its core was destroyed, it would not feel any pain slowing its movements, becoming a typical ‘the more it fights, the more courageous it becomes’ model.

Li Yao loaded up the Flame Crossbow, and as the boss raised its arm to throw the short spear, Li Yao quickly shot an arrow.

Smack…

The Patrol’s attack was abruptly cancelled. His short spear fell to the ground, and he collapsed to one knee, clutching his arm in agony and yelling out in pain.

Li Yao dared not take things lightly, truly realizing the terror inspired by this boss. The explosive power and damage of the short spear at a medium-short range were neck-chilling.

If it successfully threw the spear, one could only be instantly killed, even missing the chance to evade.

While Li Yao was running towards the boss, he quickly cast ‘Pet Heal’ on the Fire Eagle, then approached the boss.

He swiftly thrust his short sword into the neck of the boss…

-1450

Li Yao’s expression changed. Normal damage was around eight to nine hundred. The damage from cancelling an attack should be several times higher, at least two thousand. However, it was only a bit over one thousand, and even that was critical damage.

Something was amiss. Such a situation could only mean once thing – his damage had been modified and balanced by the system.

The Ancient God System did not operate under the premise of server maintenance. Changes and patches were usually stealthy, with no announcements of any fine-tuning made, leaving it up to the players to discover and explore.

In Li Yao’s memory, the balance to cancelling an attack should have been implemented several years later. However, he was not surprised; as he mastered the technique early on, it would make sense for the system to adjust earlier than expected.

Cancelling an attack indeed had many ‘bugs’ such as disregarding armor and inflicting several times normal damage. After the adjustment, it should have been reduced to weakening armor, retaining only the critical attack, and removing the multiplied damage.

Li Yao was not disappointed either. After mastering the technique, cancelling an attack was merely an additional skill. He still had many techniques up his sleeve, only not reaching their full potential in terms of attributes. Although the altered cancelling of attack took a little more time, it was still useful for Li Yao.

Roar…

The Bird of Prey watched as its master was attacked by Li Yao and couldn’t throw a single spear, it became so angry. Despite the constant attacks from the Fire Eagle, it flapped its wings.

Hurricane Roar!

The convergence of two swirling tornados unleashed a terrifying sound, driving towards Li Yao. As Li Yao backflipped, he released another Steel Arrow.

Smack…

Once again, the boss was unlucky and its attack was cancelled. Meanwhile, Li Yao activated Magic Spider Silk and teleported to another location.

The Hurricane Roar swept up stones wildly and passed through the spot where Li Yao had just been standing. It was truly a frightful scene.

The Fire Eagle was also enraged and made a swoop, grabbing the back of the Bird of Prey and slamming it into the nearby mountain wall.

The Bird of Prey was momentarily dazed. However, it used its will to initiate a furious spin. The Fire Eagle’s claws gripped its bone tightly, and before letting go, the two of them were spinning at a rapid speed.

Meanwhile, Li Yao was steadily dealing damage to the boss, whose attack was cancelled.

Bang…

Eventually, the Fire Eagle was thrown off and crashed into the mountain wall. Thanks to Li Yao’s ‘Pet Heal’, although the Fire Eagle’s health had been reduced by the Bird of Prey, it still had the upper hand in terms of health because it could continually replenish it.

The Troll Patrol naturally knew this too. But he was clumsily blocked from using his skills because of the cancellation of attack tactics Li Yao employed. He was constantly under attack, unable to fight back, and had no time to heal his pet.

The Fire Eagle was also irate and it and the Bird of Prey kept attacking each other. The whole terrace was ravaged by fire and wind spells.

Meanwhile, Li Yao was constantly on guard for the Bird of Prey’s sneak attack and the wide-range spell attack, leaving the Patrol in misery. He was repeatedly attacked by Li Yao and the Fire Eagle.

In the end, the Troll Patrol, who was not able to land a single skill, sadly dropped to the ground. His eyes filled with frustration and unwillingness. He had the power to easily kill any monster, but he was simply unable to use it.

The Bird of Prey also released a mournful cry in the air, frantically attacking Li Yao. But Li Yao had just toyed the Troll Patrol to death. Now, he only needed to deal with a pet.

Under the joint attack of the Fire Eagle and Li Yao, the Bird of Prey was also sadly defeated and lay next to its master.

“System: Player first kills wild boss level 15 1-star Troll Patrol. However, the player is detected to be on a stealth and reconnaissance mission, delay announcement?”

This was one of the human-friendly features of the Ancient God System. While NPCs might not know about the public announcement, players would. It would expose the location and progress of the player. Therefore, there was such a covert setting.

“Confirm the delay in announcement.” Li Yao didn’t need to think before responding. Outside the city, there were still countless members from the Blood Leaf Guild who abhorred him.

“System: Please select the delay time, between 1 hour and 2 days.”

After some thought, Li Yao said: “1 day.”…
