“Go! Attack at once, kill the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf!”
The system had returned to normal when Chen Mo received the System Notification. Lofty Glacier had also collected his thoughts. He knew something unusual had just happened, and it clearly had something to do with the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf!
Lofty Glacier yelled furiously without caring about his image.
Although the Players that were hired were displeased by Lofty Glacier’s furious roar, they too knew they were running short on time. They immediately charged at the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf under Lofty Glacier’s lead.
“It’s too late.”
Chen Mo glanced at the Players that were rushing into the Wolf Valley. He tossed the sphere of Icy Stone Water at the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf.
Roar!
The Three-Headed Fiery Wolf’s eyes flickered with excitement. He subconsciously let out a furious roar while the head in the middle bowed and caught the Icy Stone Water.
To Chen Mo’s surprise, the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf raised his head and swallowed the Icy Stone Water that was emitting an icy aura into his stomach!
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The Three-Headed Fiery Wolf uttered three furious roars while his body was trembling, as if he was suffering from a great pain!
Flames were bursting out of his body. The flames engulfing the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf burned even more vigorously as if someone had just poured fuel on them!
“Is that masked Player going to kill the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf just like that!?”
The Players in the distance were in utter disbelief. They could clearly see the pain that the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf was enduring. They would not be surprised if the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf suddenly fell to his death amid the vigorous flames.
“It’s very likely! That guy is most likely here to steal the Boss Monster!”
The same thought crossed the minds of many Players. If the masked Player managed to kill the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf, the effort that Glacier Corporation Group had put in so far would end up as the cat’s paw for him!
They would also do the same thing if they had the chance!
While the Players were discussing among themselves, Chen Mo was the only one that could observe the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf’s changes.
The Three-Headed Fiery Wolf was evolving!
The Icy Stone Water was his weakness, but it was also the material he needed to evolve!
The Three-Headed Fiery Wolf’s body was undergoing tremendous changes amid the raging flames!
Wings! A huge pair of wings had grown rapidly out of his back!
Boom!
In just a few moments, the wings had fully grown over ten meters long. The Three-Headed Fiery Wolf beat his wings, blowing the flames away and revealing its body that had clearly grown stronger.
“Did the Boss Monster just evolve?”
The Players at the entrance of the Wolf Valley were stunned.
Lofty Glacier who was leading the Players that Glacier Corporation Group had hired felt his heart skipping a beat. Would their secret weapon still work after the Boss Monster evolved?
Chen Mo would be very surprised if he saw the thing in Lofty Glacier’s inventory.
Inside Lofty Glacier’s inventory was also a sphere of Icy Stone Water, but it was different from the one Chen Mo had. Lofty Glacier’s Icy Stone Water was not a quest item, nor was its uses restricted.
The Three-Headed Fiery Wolf was even more savage after consuming the Icy Stone Water. He glanced at Chen Mo before beating his wings to lift off.
“Attack! Don’t let him get away!” Lofty Glacier yelled.
He must stop the Boss Monster from running away at all costs!
Lots of fireballs, icy arrows, bolts, and projectiles flew into the air and went right at the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf. Lofty Glacier also used the Icy Stone Water in his inventory without any hesitation.
He tossed the Icy Stone Water at the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf amid the colorful projectiles.
Most of the attacks only inflicted around thirty to forty damage on the evolved Three-Headed Fiery Wolf, despite the Players were mostly had a full set of Green Equipment. If their equipment was slightly worse, they might even struggle to break through the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf’s defense.
Snap!
The Icy Stone Water smashed into pieces after landing on the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf. The Three-Headed Fiery Wolf turned around and glared at Lofty Glacier.
He was extremely familiar with the Icy Stone Water. If he did not evolve, the Icy Stone Water would significantly weaken him!
Whoosh!
He beat his wings and unleashed three flames of different colors resembling fire dragons at the Players that Glacier Gaming Club had hired!
-3000!
-3000!
-3000!
…
Damage indicators with values over 3000 floated above the Players’ heads!
“F**k me!”
“What kind of damage is that!?”
The crowd exclaimed.
It all happened within an instant!
More than three hundred Players were wiped out just like that!
Every Player, including Chen Mo, was dumbfounded!
Chen Mo knew the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf would become stronger after he had evolved, but the damage was too insane!
He had formed a pact with the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf. He could easily ask the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf to eliminate anything as he pleased every time he stumbled into the Boss Monster!
The Players in the distance and the people watching the live broadcast were lost for words to describe their feelings.
They were looking forward to witnessing something spectacular tonight, but it was clearly beyond what they had expected.
“Glacier Corporation Group has made a fool of itself!”
Everyone shared the same thought as they recovered from the shock.
They had invested so much time and effort in spreading the news about their plan of killing the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf, but the Players had all been killed instantly by the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf instead. One could not possibly imagine a louder slap to the face than that!
“Headline! It’s going to be the headline tomorrow!”
Many reporters started writing a draft right away.
A mysterious masked Player! The ridiculous strength of the evolved Boss Monster! Glacier Gaming Club was entirely wiped out!
The plan of getting the first kill on the Hidden Boss had ended up in such an unbelievable outcome. There was nothing more attention-grabbing than the headline!
After taking out more than three hundred Players within an instant, the Three-Headed Fiery Wolf beat his wings and rose into the sky. He circled the Wolf Valley once before disappearing into the horizon.
“The masked Player is gone too!”
The crowd noticed that the masked Player was already gone when they shifted their attention to the Wolf Valley.
“Xiao Yu, your Glacier Corporation Group has really suffered great losses.”
In the virtual bar, the members of Nouveau Riches Club glanced at Blue Fantasy upon collecting their thoughts.
Blue Fantasy remained silent. She was still staring at the screen with great astonishment, even though the masked Player was already gone.
Meanwhile, a bunch of young workers in Canglan Tech’s Inspection Center was soaked in a cold sweat.
Every monitor in the Inspection Center was filled with red alerts when the system froze briefly, scaring the crap out of them.
Even though the system had returned to normal, they were still performing numerous checks on the system cautiously.
“Sister Bing, you are here, something went wrong with the system just then.”
A young beautiful lady with a cold expression walked in. One of the young workers immediately went up to her and reported.
Tang Bing stared at the character that the screen was being locked onto in astonishment after hearing the report from her subordinate.
Everyone, including Tang Bing was familiar with the character.
The people of Canglan Tech were curious why the Player did not use the Icy Stone Water when he first got his hands on it, but now, not only did he use it, he almost crashed the system too.
“It’s fine, calm down,” Tang Bing waved her hand, signaling everyone to calm themselves.
The young workers let out relieved sighs. They initially thought Tang Bing was going to give them a great scolding. They were surprised to see Tang Bing in such a calm mood.
“Sister Bing, what should we do with the Player? Should we give him a warning?” one of the workers suggested.
The guy had almost crashed the entire system!
“Nonsense, the system might even reward him for it, let alone giving him a warning!” Tang Bing looked at the worker.
“Ah? But why?” the members of the Inspection Center were dumbfounded.
“Isn’t it obvious!? The game is still in the beta stage. The guy just helped us to find a shortcoming of the system!” Tang Bing grunted.
The team immediately came to a realization. They clearly remembered the announcement stating that if anyone managed to find a bug in the game, they would be rewarded accordingly.
“What reward will he get then?” someone asked.
“How would I know? The system will decide!” Tang Bing shook her head. The team was still too young and naive.
However, Canglan Tech had carefully filtered these people to ensure that the information was kept confidential.
Only the A.I. Twilight would know how severe the system freeze was, thus she would reward the Player accordingly after she had done analyzing the fault that occurred.
