Deepest part of Wolf King Valley.
Su Yu stood behind a large tree, observing the distant Howling Moon Wolf King.
[Howling Moon Wolf King Lv10 (Rare)]
HP: 140000
The Howling Moon Wolf King was a giant wolf similar in size to a tundra wolf, standing 3 meters at the shoulder and 4.6 meters long. Its fur was like snow, exuding an extraordinary presence.
The most noteworthy aspect was its HP, a staggering 140,000! That's 1000 times that of a normal mob of the same level!
In Evolution, normal boss HP was usually about 10 times that of same-level mobs. Excellent quality was around 12-30 times, and rare bosses 33-100 times.
However, the Howling Moon Wolf King was special. It was a "World Boss" type for a monster siege event, its HP boosted to 1000 times, placing it in the top-tier Epic boss category.
Furthermore, the Howling Moon Wolf King wasn't alone. It was surrounded by 12 Elite Wolf King Guards (Lv10, 1400 HP), who were also normal boss templates.
Gazing at the imposing pack of wolf bosses, Su Yu's expression grew serious.
The Howling Moon Wolf King was not something he could handle.
The wolf king was massive. In the game, larger size generally meant faster speed.
Even if Su Yu used Ice Spells to slow down the Howling Moon Wolf King, the wolf king could still easily catch up to him. The "kiting" strategy was simply not feasible.
If the wolf king caught him, one swipe could send him offline to reflect.
Su Yu might be able to dodge a few swipes with his experience, but let's not forget the wolf king's 140,000 HP! During a prolonged battle, Su Yu couldn't guarantee he wouldn't get touched once.
One touch, and he'd be dead.
"Sigh! I should just leave it to the players in the village. But, can the players in the village really handle it?"
Su Yu had no confidence.
In his past life, there had been many monster siege events in Novice Villages and main cities. The success rate for players was roughly fifty-fifty.
But this time was different. This wolf king siege was happening too early!
If it weren't for Su Yu, this siege might have waited until tomorrow night, when the main player force had generally reached level 7 or 8, and the first batch of players were leveling in Wolf King Valley, triggering this monster siege.
At that time, players might have been able to hold their ground.
But now...
Su Yu shook his head. "Currently, only a few hardcore players have reached level 7, and they've all logged off."
"Most players are around level 4. The wolf king has a level suppression of up to 6 levels against them. The failure rate for this monster siege is at least over 95%."
"Forget it. I'll tell the Relevant Department, Emperor Blood, and Slaying Heaven about this. Hopefully, they can use their influence to get players to seek refuge in other novice villages."
Su Yu sighed, turned, and walked towards the entrance of Wolf King Valley, opening his private chat interface as he did.
But as Su Yu turned, he saw the steep cliff on the inner side of the Wolf King Valley entrance, his eyes slightly narrowing.
He knew this cliff.
When he was doing the Annie's Revenge quest, Snowflake had recommended this cliff to him, telling him to jump from it to use his high falling speed to evade the Star Forger Dragon King's fatal blow.
But because it was Snowflake's suggestion, Su Yu had rejected it without a second thought.
Now, seeing the cliff again, a bold idea surfaced in his mind. He seemed to have found a way to deal with the wolf king!
"The game just launched, so the monsters' aggro range probably hasn't been adjusted yet. Maybe I can use this cliff to kill the wolf king boss!"
Su Yu's eyes lit up!
The four hours of tedious leveling earlier had made Su Yu yawn repeatedly. Now that he had found a challenging target, a long-lost feeling of excitement surged through him!
However, before dealing with the wolf king boss, he needed to make thorough preparations.
For example, getting a set of equipment that increases movement speed, preferably with dual movement speed stats, and he also needed an Ice Arrow skill scroll.
Otherwise, he'd be caught and killed by the wolf king before he could even lead the boss to the cliff.
With that in mind, Su Yu no longer hesitated. He put on a full set of speed-boosting leather armor and sprinted towards Nolan Village.
Nolan Village was now swarming with people.
Players from other villages, hearing that a monster siege event had appeared in Novice Village No. 6, came to join the fun with a "just for participation" mentality, crowding the narrow village to its limits.
Su Yu pushed through the surging crowd in the village and managed to squeeze into the warehouse.
After entering the warehouse, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the interior of the warehouse was an independent dimension. Otherwise, with so many people crammed in, he wouldn't be able to buy anything.
Opening the warehouse's item search interface, he skillfully selected the keywords "Equipment," "Movement Speed," and "Chest Armor."
Soon, a long list of equipment appeared, with levels ranging from 3 to 5, and 90% of them were leather armor.
For example, the Traveler's Leather Jacket Lv3 (Excellent) (Defense +8, Movement Speed +0.3).
The movement speed increase from chest armor wasn't high, around 0.2-0.4.
But these chest armors were very cheap, generally costing only 10-30 Psionic Coins.
Because movement speed equipment was useless for leveling at this stage, even though it looked like an Excellent quality item, it was no different from a plain item for players.
Su Yu, with his deep pockets, immediately chose the five chest armors with the highest movement speed bonuses.
Buy, buy, buy, buy, buy!
The five chest armors were quickly retrieved from the warehouse.
After obtaining the five pieces of equipment, Su Yu used Star Point Hand on them one by one.
"Ding, would you like to spend 300 Psionic Coins to enhance [Wind Whisper Chestguard lv3 (Excellent)]?"
"Confirm!"
"Ding, [Wind Whisper Chestguard lv3 (Excellent)] quality has been upgraded to [Wind Whisper Chestguard lv3 (Rare)], gaining Defense +5, Additional Attribute: Agility +3."
This one won't do, next!
"Ding, would you like to spend 500 Psionic Coins to enhance [Red Wolf Leather Jacket lv5 (Excellent)]?"
"Confirm!"
"Ding, [Red Wolf Leather Jacket lv5 (Excellent)] quality has been upgraded to [Red Wolf Leather Jacket lv5 (Rare)], gaining Defense +5, Additional Attribute: Attack Speed +10%."
"Ding, [Uncle Anno's Leather Armor lv3 (Excellent)] quality has been upgraded."
The stats gained after each enhancement are random, so Su Yu could only keep enhancing them continuously, hoping for equipment with double movement speed bonuses.
All five pieces of equipment were enhanced, but none of them had the "double movement speed" he wanted.
Su Yu's expression remained unchanged, and he purchased another five pieces of equipment with the highest movement speed bonuses.
Finally, on his 8th attempt with Star Point Hand.
"Ding, [Wind-like Leather Armor lv4 (Excellent)] quality has been upgraded to [Wind-like Leather Armor lv4 (Rare)], gaining Defense +5, Additional Attribute: Movement Speed +0.3."
"Finally, it dropped!" Su Yu let out a long sigh of relief.
[Wind-like Leather Armor lv4 (Rare)]
Defense +9
Movement Speed +0.4
Movement Speed +0.3
