Chapter 268 Tiger Shark King (1/2)
The ocean was the largest, most mysterious, and bountiful territory. In the real world, human technology also developed very rapidly, but humanity was still unable to completely explore the ocean.
The New Age was similar, as countless secrets were hidden within it. Lin Jie was reborn, but his knowledge of the ocean was far from the degree of ”transparent”, at most what he knew was just superficial.
Crying Bay, a region that had not been explored before, even in his previous life. As for Naga Island, it had never even been heard of before, so this ocean area was also unknown. Thus, there would definitely be plenty of treasures.
”It should not be far.” Lin Jie took a closer look and at the bottom of the pitch-black ocean. There was a very obscure light that was revealed due to the moonlight. The light was very subtle, but with Lin Jie's eye power, it was not difficult to see that.
In the ocean, the players' movement speed was extremely slow, even with the help of Naga's Trident, Lin Jie still spent almost ten minutes to move closer to the treasure chest. However, there was no mission monster spawned in the surroundings, which made Lin Jie exclaim that his luck was not bad.
'It's near!'
The light that was pure white like the moon shone from the depths and jumped around in front of Lin Jie, dazzling to one's eye like an Elf in a moonlit night. Lin Jie carefully cleared the silt, and a corner of the treasure chest was exposed—Gradeless Treasure Chest! It was actually a Gradeless Treasure Chest!
It was at the surroundings of the Town of Meyer's Spirited Lake of the Undead when Lin Jie had activated the first Gradeless Treasure Chest, and it had given him a super high-level item, Feather Drop Gem, which he is still using till now. Meanwhile, now, he finally encountered the second one!
Thinking back carefully, with Lin Jie's swimming speed, he still spent almost ten minutes to be able to sink down to that position. If it was a normal person, then most probably he would need to surface to breath after a few minutes, unless he also had high-level [Proficient Underwater Battling].
This treasure chest was also hidden very secretly, so if one were to follow the normal flow of the game, then, most probably, it would only be obtained by players at least two years later. Also, that person must also be able to find Naga Island.
Lin Jie rubbed his hand excitedly. ”Come on, baby… F*ck…”
Zeng!
Cold gleams shot from all sides, ten light rays, like bright silver great swords, appeared from afar. The surrounding seawater violently surged up, like spirals or maybe one's guts, as if it was going to pull Lin Jie in! Lin Jie took a closer look, how were those silver swords! They were obviously a shark's teeth!
Identify!
Lin Jie stayed calm in the hour of peril. There was quite the number of plate armor exclusively for Paladins in his backpack, and he just wore them all. Within the punishments of equipping other jobs' equipment, Movement Speed reduced by 300%, and one's load and weight would increase by 150% was included. Lin Jie's body instantly became heavy and sank towards the bottom!
Splash, splash—
The water vapor on top of his head was like hitting a drum, which shook him up until he was in a trance. At the same time, the monster's attributes were also revealed.
[Tiger Shark King] (Gold Overlord Boss)
Level: 40
Health Points: 400,000
Attack: 678-900
Defense: 150
Armor Ignore: Skin of Tiger Shark (Your attack has 11% chance of being deflected), Tiger Shark's Sharp Teeth (70% Armor Ignore), Tiger Shark Devour (When your Health Points are below 70%, there are chances of being killed instantly)
Note: The Tiger Shark King of the deep sea is a ferocious beast that has attacked countless of merchant ships and is the predator of the ocean with the title of the Sailors' Nightmare. Its teeth can easily pierce through decks and armors. Also, the smell of your blood will further excite its actions. At the same time, the Tiger Shark King is a living creature that pays great emphasis on one's territory, so if you leave its territory quickly, it might let you go.
”Overlord!” Lin Jie was surprised and elated—surprised that he had actually encountered an Overlord in the wild! Overlord Bosses mostly appeared within dungeons, and the reason was very simple; the maps of the dungeon were normally not very big, and the Boss was the leader.
What was an Overlord? An entity with countless underlings and a harem, which dwelt 3,000 ladies fair, that was an Overlord! When players met monsters, which were Overlords, as default, they would presume it had an additional skill to summon underlings.
No wonder in this place there was no other Tiger Sharks, it turned out it was the territory of the big boss! Realization dawned upon Lin Jie, and his Trident was placed in front of his chest, aimed right at the Boss' sharp tooth that was gleaming with cold light.
Kill!
Besides killing, there was no other choice!
By killing it, not only could Lin Jie obtain the experience points and loots of a Gold Boss, but he could also activate the Gradeless Treasure Chest. Such a huge benefit was before him, luring him. Even if he had to be badly battered in the fight, he also had to kill!
Ang—
The Tiger Shark King let out a fierce roar. Its body may be enormous, but its agility could be compared to a monkey swimming in the sea. Thus, its speed could even be compared to leopards. It flung its fishtail, and its body charged towards Lin Jie vigorously like a battleship at full speed!
”Feather Drop!” Lin Jie instantly took off his plate armor and activated Feather Drop, which made his weight as light as a feather. The movements of the Tiger Shark King's attack was too huge, which made the water flow extremely rapidly and pushed Lin Jie away.
Shield Cut! Army Obliteration!
When Lin Jie's attack landed on the back of the Tiger Shark King, there was a strange feeling from his hand. It was as if he had attacked a slippery loach, and his attacked was diverted, landing at the side.
Attack Deflection!
-1,565!
-1,602!
-1,594!
-3,000!
Shield Cut was canceled out, but the damage from the attack of Army Obliteration was real and solid. The effects of Naga's Trident were still very powerful, even if it faced an Overlord, the damage which was dealt was also quite high!
The severe pain made Tiger Shark King tremble all over, and fresh blood flowed continuously.
As a Gold Boss, all living creatures had their dignity. Hence, Tiger Shark King let out sound waves, which spread through the sea. In the next instant, Lin Jie saw up to 100 sharks swimming from the distance, rapidly nearing Lin Jie.
'Despicable, shameless!' Lin Jie scolded in his heart. 'Being a formidable Gold Overlord Tiger Shark King, a Boss where one of its teeth is already one head higher than me, it actually summoned underlings immediately. Does it even still have a sense of shame?'
