After clearly seeing the poison he was afflicted with, Wang Xian breathed a sigh of relief. He only had 150 HP at most.
Smack!
Wang Xian raised his shovel and once again delivered a heavy blow to the Five-Venom Beast's snake head.
-38
Another red damage number appeared.
At the same time, a pattern resembling a spiral appeared in the Five-Venom Beast's status bar.
Wang Xian immediately grinned when he saw it. The Five-Venom Beast had been stunned by his shovel attack.
This was one of the differences between the digitized Blue Star and online games.
In online games, to stun an enemy, you needed a corresponding skill.
The digitized Blue Star was different. Besides skills, enemies could also be stunned by external forces, just like the current Five-Venom Beast BOSS.
Besides stuns caused by external forces, other similar status effects caused by external forces included blindness, suffocation, and so on.
However, for status effects like stun, there was a prerequisite: breaking through defenses. If you couldn't even break through its defenses, how could you cause a stun?
The Five-Venom Beast BOSS had fallen into a stunned state. Wang Xian wouldn't pass up such a good opportunity. He held his shovel and rained blows down on the Five-Venom Beast BOSS's snake head.
-38
-38
-38
Three consecutive red numbers appeared above the Five-Venom Beast BOSS, and its health dropped to 206 points.
It was worth mentioning that wild monsters, including BOSSes, below level 30 would not regenerate health after entering combat if they didn't have any healing skills.
Also, all BOSSes had a "protection mechanism."
This "protection mechanism" would prevent the BOSS from entering that specific negative status effect again for a period of time after recovering from it.
Therefore, trying to keep a BOSS in a stunned state using external forces to achieve a no-damage kill was impossible.
"Hiss—Hiss—Hiss—"
The Five-Venom Beast BOSS recovered from its stunned state, letting out a piercing hiss filled with endless rage.
Wang Xian chose to ignore it and gave the Five-Venom Beast BOSS another shovel blow.
-19
Clearly, this shovel blow had not hit the Five-Venom Beast BOSS's snake head.
In this manner, Wang Xian repeatedly struck the Five-Venom Beast BOSS with his shovel, while the Five-Venom Beast BOSS could only let out angry hisses, completely helpless.
There was no other way; the Five-Venom Beast BOSS's attack methods were too simple. Besides lunging attacks, it only had scorpion tail attacks.
When faced with the Five-Venom Beast's lunging attack, Wang Xian could dodge it with a simple roll, regardless of his image.
As for the scorpion tail attack, its speed was too fast to dodge, so he could only tank it.
Fortunately, Wang Xian's HP was high enough. After being hit by the scorpion tail venom once more, he successfully killed the Five-Venom Beast BOSS.
The entire process seemed very easy, but don't forget that Wang Xian had tricked the Five-Venom Beast BOSS, reducing its HP from 2000 to 377 points.
Even so, Wang Xian only had 50 HP left. If he had been hit by the Five-Venom Beast BOSS's scorpion tail one more time, he would have been the one to fall.
Moreover, once Wang Xian fell, the Five-Venom Beast BOSS would exit combat and begin to slowly recover its health.
What was even more critical was that by then, the Five-Venom Beast BOSS would have developed resistance to the insecticide, making it impossible to trick it again.
"Ding! You have killed the Level 5 BOSS, Five-Venom Beast, and gained 1000 experience points."
"Ding! You have completed the BOSS's first kill, and have been rewarded with a special reward, the title: [BOSS Nemesis]."
"Ding! You have leveled up, your attributes have increased, and you have gained five free attribute points."
"Ding! You have reached Level 6 and gained 6 free attribute points from the [Growth] talent."
A series of system prompts sounded in Wang Xian's ears.
BOSS Nemesis?
In his previous life, the rewards for the first kill of a BOSS had always been a mystery. The person who received the reward had never revealed what it was.
In this life, Wang Xian had obtained the reward for the first kill of this BOSS. He wanted to see what this reward actually was.
Title: [BOSS Nemesis (Unique)]
Attributes: 1. Soul Drain. 2. Luck. 3. Evolution.
Soul Drain: Upon killing a wild BOSS, randomly gain 0-1 free attribute points.
Luck: Upon killing a wild BOSS, the chance of obtaining items increases by 1%.
Evolution: Upon killing a wild BOSS, gain 1 Evolution point. When Evolution points reach 100, the title's effects will be enhanced.
Good heavens!
This title's attributes are quite formidable!
At the same time, Wang Xian finally understood. No wonder there were rumors that the guy who got the first BOSS kill reward in his previous life was very enthusiastic about killing all sorts of wild BOSSes, not letting go of any level of wild BOSS. He even often went to low-level monster areas to snatch wild BOSSes from low-level players.
So, it was all because of the title BOSS Nemesis!
Let alone that guy, anyone who obtained this title would become enthusiastic about killing all sorts of wild BOSSes.
"Ding! World Announcement: Dragon Country player 'Immortal King' has completed the first BOSS kill and received a special reward!"
"Ding! World Announcement: Dragon Country player 'Immortal King' has completed the first BOSS kill and received a special reward!"
"Ding! World Announcement: Dragon Country player 'Immortal King' has completed the first BOSS kill and received a special reward!"
Three deafening voices suddenly echoed from the sky.
This was the sound of the world announcement.
The world announcement no longer sounded directly in one's ears but was announced in this manner across the entire Blue Star.
Upon hearing this sound, Wang Xian's expression froze. Then, he slapped his forehead with his right hand. How could he have forgotten about this matter!
The first BOSS killed after Blue Star's dataization would be announced to the world!
It seemed that without waiting for players to reach level 10 and unlock the rankings, Blue Star would likely be flooded with all sorts of public opinion and even erupt in various disturbances.
Thinking of the disturbances that occurred after the rankings were unlocked in his previous life, Wang Xian sighed slightly.
This was not something he could prevent.
"Why am I thinking so much? I should see what kind of surprise the world's first BOSS to be killed will bring me!"
Just like in online games, after killing monsters and BOSSes, Blue Star, after being dataized, would drop various items, such as equipment, currency, skill books, and so on.
Previously, the earthworms and rats that Wang Xian and his father killed didn't drop any equipment because their levels were too low.
Wild monsters below level 10 would not drop any items.
BOSSes were different!
Any BOSS, regardless of its level, would drop items when killed.
