Chapter 436 Coming and Going in the Mist

Chapter 34 System Boss

System Bosses have always belonged to the masses, not to any particular individual. So, although Jian Nan You and his group were unmistakably there for the Boss, and Gu Fei and his friends were there for Jian Nan You, it didn't affect the Boss attacking Gu Fei first.

Everyone was wandering around in the vicinity. Jian Nan You's seven people stood back-to-back in a circle, revealing no openings. Sword Demon entered stealth mode. Only Gu Fei stood so arrogantly and clearly in the mist. If the Boss didn't stab him, it would be a disservice to the high intelligence boasted by the system announcement.

NPCs don't emit murderous intent, so this Mist Shadow Assassin circled around and pounced on Gu Fei from behind, without him noticing. As an assassin, his work of hiding himself was done very well. He didn't make a single sound moving at such high speed. However, it was precisely because of moving so fast that flaws emerged.

High-speed movement caused air to flow, commonly called wind.

Perhaps for ordinary players, this bit of wind didn't amount to anything, but for Gu Fei, he keenly caught it, keenly turned around, and keenly blocked this attack!

To deal with Gu Fei, an NPC without murderous intent actually had a natural advantage for a sneak attack. Slowly walking behind him and stabbing him might have been more effective than his current lightning-fast method. Unfortunately, this was probably something the NPC designers hadn't considered.

The Mist Shadow Assassin failed to land a blow and instantly retreated back into the mist. Gu Fei blocked this attack but couldn't neutralize such a large impact. His whole body was already sent flying backward. He also turned into a black shadow, flying in the mist.

"There!!!" Three of the Jian Nan You seven who could see this direction shouted wildly. Everyone turned their heads to look in this direction and saw a figure rushing out of the mist, not running, but flying.

"Be careful!" Jian Nan You shouted. Their seven-person circle rotated, with him facing the black shadow head-on. The knight cast an endurance blessing on him, and two priests were ready to cast healing spells. Jian Nan You held his shield in front of him, wanting to take this opportunity to see how high the Mist Shadow Assassin's damage was.

As a result, the flying black shadow didn't fly all the way to them. It fell halfway, and it didn't look like it was rushing in to attack. Because his butt was facing Jian Nan You and the others.

After landing, the person staggered back several steps before standing firm. Then he turned around and waved at them, "Don't panic, don't panic, it's me, it's me."

"Damn!!!" The seven shouted in unison.

At the same time, Glue Hand's arrows and Fire Burning Clothes' spells had already been launched. Gu Fei took a step to the side to dodge, and Black Water also wanted to rush out, but was stopped by Jian Nan You, "Don't mess up the formation."

The soft-handed one in the core of the seven shouted quickly, "He's not the Boss, the Boss isn't like this."

Jian Nan You said without turning his head, "Not the Boss, but better than the Boss."

The soft-handed one was confused. He didn't understand the mystery of Jian Nan You's words at all. The person in front of him had a smile on his face, wearing a black mage robe, but holding a sword in his hand. He had also moved quite agilely to dodge the arrows and spells just now. The soft-handed one suddenly understood that this wasn't a Boss, but a monster. At least the Boss followed the professional system. What kind of mess was this guy?

Glue Hand and Fire Burning Clothes wouldn't just attack once. Arrows and spells followed one after another. But facing the joint attack of the two, Gu Fei was very calm and composed, easily dispelling them with a wave of his sword. When Fire Burning Clothes cast a large-scale spell, he moved to a different position, gradually approaching the seven-person circle.

"Tighten it up!" Jian Nan You suddenly ordered. He thought that Gu Fei had instant movement. If he suddenly flew out of the gap in the middle and then did a 900-degree Twin Flame Slash, everyone would be wiped out. Even if they had enough health, don't forget that it was 900 degrees, which was two and a half circles. Half of the people would be hit three times by his Twin Flame Slash. Could anyone survive?

Everyone understood and immediately leaned back tightly. Anyway, the main attackers now were Glue Hand and Fire Burning Clothes. Just give these two enough space. So, the few squeezed back-to-back, and the soft-handed one in the middle was a little out of breath. Jian Nan You glanced back at him, "Hold on."

The soft-handed one showed a firm look and nodded decisively. He felt that the moment to test him had finally arrived.

When Gu Fei saw their actions, he stopped. Indeed, his original plan was to rush in directly after getting close and solve everything with a Twin Flame Slash at once. He didn't expect the other party to see through his intention and squeeze out the space in advance…

In this case, he could only kill them one by one from the outside. Gu Fei was about to attack again when he suddenly heard a shout, "Behind you!!!"

Gu Fei was startled, knowing that the assassin was behind him again. This shout must have been a warning from Sword Demon. Turning around, he saw the gray shadow rushing out of the mist and stabbing at Gu Fei. This time he saw clearly that the Mist Shadow Assassin's movement was far faster than Waist Dancer's in fast mode. It was definitely a genuine powerful Boss.

Gu Fei quickly shifted a few steps to the side. The Mist Shadow Assassin arrived in front of him, raised his arm, and thrust out a dagger, a gray, dull dagger. But this time Gu Fei was prepared, and it wasn't difficult to block this attack. And this time the opponent didn't seem to use much force. He immediately retracted his hand after a failed attack. The person suddenly flipped into the air and waved his arms. Everything was dazzling to ordinary people, but Gu Fei's eyesight was far beyond ordinary. He could clearly see every move of the opponent's attack. He flicked his wrist and pointed his sword into the air, with sword flowers blooming and clashing against the opponent's thrusting attacks. After a series of clanging sounds, all the attacks were blocked.

Although Gu Fei's attack wasn't as fast as the Mist Shadow Assassin's, his skills were much higher than this rigid robot. The direction of each sword thrust was adjusted in the simplest way. In short, the Mist Shadow Assassin's attack speed was fast, and the range was large; while Gu Fei's attack speed was slow, but the range was small. In the end, the time it took for both sides to launch each attack was almost the same. Neither side could do anything to the other in a head-on confrontation.

In fact, Gu Fei had a way to pierce through the opponent's attack with one strike. But the problem was that this wasn't a real fight, but a Boss fight. In a real fight, a sword to the throat would be fatal, and it would be over. Now, facing a Boss, no matter where you stabbed, it was absolutely impossible to kill it instantly. And the system NPC wouldn't flinch because of one hit. Next, Gu Fei could only be strangled by the opponent in this dazzling rain of daggers. So, he could only honestly have a head-on fight with the opponent.

This head-on fight was a low-level method, but it was extremely exciting in the eyes of other laymen. The two sides wielded their weapons and completed countless confrontations in an instant. The Mist Shadow Assassin's attack stopped abruptly. He suddenly flipped back in mid-air, not knowing where he got the strength from, and flew back. After landing, he jumped and disappeared into the mist again.

Gu Fei wiped a handful of sweat. Although it was only a short fight, it took a lot of energy. He reached out his left hand and pulled an arrow from his right shoulder, threw it on the ground, and turned to face the seven-member group again.

When Gu Fei was attacked by the Mist Shadow Assassin, Fire Burning Clothes and Glue Hand also wanted to take advantage of the situation, but were stopped by Jian Nan You. He was worried that this attack would attract the Boss's aggro, and the Mist Shadow Assassin who was originally attacking Gu Fei would pounce on them. Having Gu Fei was already terrifying enough. Now, attracting the Boss as well would be courting death.

The others thought it made sense. In the end, Fire Burning Clothes launched a small fireball, and Glue Hand released a tracking arrow, both with low damage but foolproof. They would never accidentally hit the Boss. They would use this to interfere with Gu Fei and help the Boss. Who would have thought that Gu Fei would completely ignore them, focusing all his attention on dealing with the Mist Shadow Assassin? The intention of interference was obviously not achieved.

Although this round passed safely, Gu Fei knew that his situation was very bad. He could be said to be under attack from both sides. He couldn't be so arrogant anymore. Gu Fei thought, temporarily giving up the idea of cleaning up the seven, and turned around and ran into the mist. This might not matter to the Boss, but at least he could avoid being harassed by these seven guys.

Always small fireballs and tracking arrows. Even if the damage was low, he couldn't last long!

After Gu Fei hid in the mist, he took out a piece of bread and ate it, while thinking about how to deal with the Mist Shadow Assassin. This guy's fast movement and fast attack were fine, but if he was willing to fight Gu Fei face-to-face, Gu Fei felt that he would always find a chance to think of a way. The problem was that this guy was coming and going in the mist, suddenly appearing to attack you a couple of times, and retreating immediately after missing. After such repeated tossing, Gu Fei felt that he couldn't afford it. He was still human after all, not a robot that could calculate and run according to the program without fatigue, without ever being careless or negligent.

"Be careful, they're moving in the direction you're retreating." Sword Demon sent a reminder.

"You be careful too!" Gu Fei said. Sword Demon had spoken to give a warning while in stealth, so those guys definitely knew that there was already a thief sneaking around. But they were calm and collected, probably because it was just a sudden sound and they didn't hear Sword Demon's location. They must be on high alert now. As long as Sword Demon made another mistake, they would definitely be blasted out.

Gu Fei hadn't seen any effect after eating this small piece of bread when he saw a shadow in the mist. Knowing that those guys were coming over again, he quickly dodged.

"What's the situation?" Han Family's Young Master and Brother You had finally arrived and immediately sent a message to inquire.

"Be careful! The Boss is around here, be careful of his attack." Gu Fei reminded.

"No way! We just arrived and he's attacking us? Didn't Jian Nan You and his gang aggro him?" Han Family's Young Master said.

After a moment of silence in the channel, Sword Demon said, "Thousand Miles is aggroing him!"

"Wahahaha, as expected of a master, how is it, dueling the Boss again?" Han Family's Young Master's words contained mockery. From the fact that Gu Fei had just reminded them, it could be judged that Gu Fei was probably not getting any advantage from the Boss this time.

Just as this message was sent, two rapid clanging sounds came from the mist in the front left. Han Family's Young Master and Brother You turned their heads and saw a black figure flying out.

This time, Gu Fei didn't even try to stand firm. After retreating several steps, he fell backward at the feet of Han Family's Young Master and Brother You.

"Tsk tsk tsk, masters are different, huh? Face planting with a dash, and backward dash?" Han Family's Young Master said to Brother You.
