Chapter 19: One Sword Instant Kill, Chen Beixuan Makes His Move
More than half of the people had already left, while a small portion remained to watch.
"Phew… finally made it!"
Seeing the boss in the open area, Zhou Han, who had rushed over, let out a long breath. Luckily, the boss was still there.
After resting for a minute, Zhou Han cast Identification on the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider.
[The level difference between you and the target is too great. Identification failed!]
Hmm?
Can't identify it?
This was the first time Zhou Han had encountered such a situation.
Although Identification was a starter skill, it was extremely useful.
After all, being able to grasp the target's information allowed one to formulate targeted combat strategies.
He wondered what effect it would have after being enhanced.
[You activated Talent · Infinite Enhancement. The skill "Identification" has been successfully enhanced twice. Please check!]
[Identification +2]: Ignores level differences and can view the attributes of any target. At the same time, it can identify the target's weak points. Attacking weak points deals 2 to 5 times damage.
As expected, it worked. Not only that, it also revealed weak points. Attacking weak points could stack with critical damage.
Zhou Han hadn't paid much attention to Identification before, since it was a support skill.
If he hadn't been unable to view attributes just now, he wouldn't even have thought of enhancing it.
If he had known it would be this useful, he would have enhanced it long ago.
Looking again, the target's attribute panel was finally displayed.
[Bloodthirsty Demon Spider]
Grade: Silver
Level: 20
HP: 2100
Attack: 513
Defense: 177
Skill 1: [Poison Mist: Deals 1000 damage per second to all enemy units within a 10-meter radius for 10 seconds. Cooldown: 25 seconds.]
Skill 2: [Bloodthirst: After dealing damage, restores HP equal to 60% of attack.]
Description: Highly toxic with strong recovery ability. Avoid prolonged battles. Head and legs are weak points.
"So this is a Silver-tier world boss? This weak?"
After reading the stats, Zhou Han couldn't help but complain.
These players were indeed too weak.
With so many people here, they couldn't even scratch the boss.
Zhou Han could easily take on ten of these bosses.
The Poison Mist skill dealt heavy damage.
But Zhou Han had poison resistance, along with a passive regeneration of 900 HP per second.
It posed no threat at all.
As for Bloodthirst, it could restore HP.
But with only 2100 total HP, it was nothing more than a glass cannon to Zhou Han.
Without wasting any time, Zhou Han walked forward with his iron sword.
He had to speed things up, because world bosses only existed for a limited time.
If not killed within the time limit, they would disappear automatically.
He couldn't let this opportunity slip away.
"Hey kid, you just got here, right? Don't go die for nothing. This boss isn't something one person can handle!"
Seeing Zhou Han walking straight toward the boss, a kind player immediately warned him.
He assumed Zhou Han had arrived late and hadn't witnessed the earlier massacre of players.
Zhou Han glanced at him, nodded, and continued forward without hesitation.
"Hey, is this kid not understanding what I said?"
"Heh, young people like to show off. But the price this time might be a bit too high!"
"Doesn't know what's good for him! If the boss were that easy, would we all be standing here?"
"Trying to act cool like this? That's a deadly price to pay."
"Even Zhou Han, the top-ranked player, isn't this arrogant. Look how low-key he is."
"Yeah, just watch. As soon as he gets close, he's dead!"
Zhou Han moved closer to accurately strike the boss's weak points.
The Bloodthirsty Demon Spider, seeing his intrusion, burned with rage and spewed out a cloud of poison.
"That's the green mist! He's about to die. I'll count—one second."
"Two seconds?"
"Three seconds? What's going on? He's not dead after three seconds?"
"Something's off! That's impossible!"
"This guy's got some skill!"
"Damn, that's a big shot! Totally misjudged him."
Facing the poison mist, Zhou Han showed no fear.
With a single swing of his sword, he unleashed Air-Splitting Slash.
Three sword energies shot out, blasting toward the spider's head.
-2769
With the weak point damage multiplier combined with the fivefold damage of Air-Splitting Slash—
Instant kill with one sword!
"Boom!"
[Damage Contribution]
1. Zhou Han: 100%
The massive body of the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider crashed heavily to the ground.
Even then, its body continued twitching from instinct.
"Th-this… what just happened? The boss is dead just like that?"
"What? Impossible! I've never seen someone this strong!"
"Well, now you have. My god, this is insane!"
"Instant kill? Are you kidding me? That boss was like paper in front of him!"
"This completely shatters my worldview!"
[Global Announcement: Player Zhou Han has successfully slain the World Boss. Reward: 20 gold, 2 Silver chests.]
Soon, the system announcement echoed in everyone's mind.
"Zhou Han killed it? Then this guy in front of us…?"
"He's Zhou Han? No wonder he had that confidence and courage. I actually mocked him just now!"
"As expected, the dominance of the number one player."
"So handsome, so manly… I wonder if he has a girlfriend."
At that moment, the corpse of the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider burst apart, and several streaks of silver light shot out.
They shimmered in the air for a moment before falling to the ground.
Silver light?
Did it drop Silver-grade equipment?
There were several pieces!
Was the drop rate of a world boss really this high?
It must be related to my damage contribution.
After all, I dealt 100% of the damage, and I also landed the final blow.
All these rewards belong to me.
Zhou Han felt a surge of joy.
"Holy shit, I saw five streaks of silver light. That's five Silver items!"
"Damn, I'm so jealous! I'd be happy with just one."
"With all this Silver gear, Zhou Han is going to become even more terrifying."
Seeing this scene, the players reacted differently.
Some were envious, others resentful.
Their eyes flickered, each harboring their own thoughts.
Standing in the center of the crowd, Chen Beixuan had watched Zhou Han's performance from start to finish.
His heart was filled with greed and resentment. Despite having a B-grade talent and being gifted, he was no match for Zhou Han.
He guessed Zhou Han must have obtained some kind of opportunity.
"Zhou Han, hand over the Silver equipment. There are so many of us here who got nothing. Do you really think you can take everything for yourself?"
After a brief pause, Chen Beixuan stepped forward and directly challenged Zhou Han.
Of course, he alone couldn't deal with Zhou Han.
So he skillfully exploited the greed in everyone's hearts.
As long as he took the lead, the crowd's emotions would be stirred, and they would unite against Zhou Han.
"Zhou Han, you've gone too far. Hand over the equipment!"
"Yeah, you're already the top player. We're all still in basic gear!"
"If you don't give us something, don't think you're leaving today!"
"He must have a lot of treasures on him. Everyone, block him—don't let him escape!"
