Li Hanqiang idled in the Blue Ripple Pond for two hours before returning to the front line.

At that time, the Mountain Wolves were no longer appearing from the Space-Time Wormhole, though there were still dozens of them on the War Corridor. It looked like this wave of monster attacks was about to end.

“I have been waiting for this moment!” Li Hanqiang stepped up into the air and took out the Special Monster Summoning Token to use it. He then shouted loudly, “Brothers, please take note that the BOSS is coming. Whoever manages to kill it will earn a lot.”

As soon as he finished, a giant object came out from the Space-Time Wormhole.

[Evil Wolf with Bull Horns (BOSS), Level 10, 5000 HP, travels 5 meters per second. Able to steal 20 Chaotic Energy from the Chaos’ Core.]

The Evil Wolf with Bull Horns sprayed white fumes from its nostrils, standing at four meters high with all four of its hooves on the ground. It had red eyes and was covered in black fur. Its claws looked like the inverted buckets of an excavator, with two long black horns on top of its wolf head. These longhorns resembled those of bulls. They were extremely sharp and nearly two meters long.

As soon as it appeared, it made a thunderous mooing sound.

Everyone drew in a breath.

The BOSS really had appeared! Moreover, this Evil Wolf with Bull Horns was different from the Old Black Pig and the Steel-skinned Boar King as it was recognized as a BOSS by the system. Its attribute information clearly showed that it had 5000 HP even at Level 10.

Fanning Fiery looked up and was speechless. They would not be able to hit the waist of the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns even if they jumped. What could they do against such a monster?

Li Hanqiang quickly shouted. “Don’t just stand there, fight!” 

“We are unable to hit it!”

Both Fanning and Fiery waved their hands over and over again. The Evil Wolf with Bull Horns stood in the middle of the War Corridor, never moving where they were so they could not reach it at all.

The Evil Wolf with Bull Horns was really rude. It completely ignored the 30 points of damage per second from the Fire Tower and strode forward. It was just like a heavy tank and Li Hanqiang could almost feel the ground shaking.

“It’s over now. Am I considered lucky or not? Why did I use the summoning token!”

Li Hanqiang’s heart was in a passive state of panic as he predicted the outcome. Even with Dark Redemption and the others, as well as a single mutated Sword Tower, what could they do against the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns with its 5000 HP?

Just as Li Hanqiang was feeling desperate, the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns stepped on the Beast Hunter. He saw the biting clip of a crocodile’s mouth pop out from the ground as it latched onto the first front paw of the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns, which was soon followed by giggling laughter. A large net appeared out of thin air and covered the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns. A humanoid phantom appeared to be riding on the neck of the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns, punching and kicking around on the wolf head.

‘-30’, ‘-30’…

The damage figures immediately appeared over the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns.

‘Ding, the Level 2 Beast Hunter has successfully captured an Evil Wolf with Bull Horns. This monster is a Level 10 BOSS and will break free from the Beast Hunter in a moment!”

“Beast Hunter!” Li Hanqiang only felt a pleasant surprise. He looked over and saw that the Beast Hunter had already risen to Level 2 and its experience was 20/200. The information in the attribute information indicated that the injury per second had increased to 30 points!

Under the current situation, the Beast Hunter and Fire Tower could hurt the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns together for about 60 points of damage per second.

“One of a kind Beast Hunter, come on!” Li Hanqiang shouted, wishing that he had moved the mutant Sword Tower to the side.

60 points of damage per second was actually quite impressive and the HP bar on the head of the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns soon dropped bit by bit. However, the BOSS took only 20 seconds to break free from the restraints of the Beast Hunter. It fiercely kicked the crocodile clip away and shattered the large net on its back as it overturned the figure sitting on its head. With a loud moo, it continued on with great strides.

However, these 20 seconds were already enough to cause a total amount of 1200 points of damage to the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns. When the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns walked out of the Fire Tower’s attack range, it was left with only 3200 Hit Points.

“There is a way, there is a way! The Beast Hunter is the strongest monolithic control tower out there. An Evil Wolf with Bull Horns with 3200 health points can be killed in just 40 seconds by the mutant Sword Tower, so it’ll all be alright!” Li Hanqiang felt his heartbeat stabilize and he laughed out loud, shouting from the top of his voice, “Everything is under control because of me, the Chaotic City Lord. Brothers, raise your spirit and kill this Evil Wolf with Bull Horns!”

“Who is your brother?”

“Don’t worm your way into being friends with us!”

“Even if we want to hit it, we can’t reach it!”

“Two batches…”

The group of melee knights yelled and scolded him in their hearts as they could only stare at the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns walking in the middle of the corridor.

Soon, the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns entered the mutated Sword Tower’s range and streaks of Sword Qi began to directly hack at it. Clang clang, clang clang! The damage numbers kept appearing on the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns’s head, all of them dealing ‘-80’ per hit!

Li Hanqiang liked this kind of defensive tower as it dealt true damage with no fluctuation, meaning it was stable and reliable. The tower also completely ignored all physical and magic resistance. If this had been a Basic Arrow Tower, it would have only done an estimate of ten damage points to the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns.

The Evil Wolf with Bull Horns’s HP quickly fell. In that short amount of time, Dark Redemption also began to attack. His Dark Arrows were quite powerful and could deal around 15 points of damage to the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns.

At last, the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns fell to the ground having only walked around twenty meters away from the mutated Sword Tower’s attack range.

A treasure chest fell next to the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns, and Li Hanqiang ran over to open it with a smile. However, there was only one item inside.

[Lucky Stone: Special item, bound. After use, it can greatly increase the chance of rare items spawning during defense reward after successfully defending Chaotic City No. 68 (this is a limited one-time effect). The item will disappear after use.]

‘Such a powerful BOSS and it only gives me such a gem.’ Li Hanqiang was slightly dissatisfied but in retrospect, should have been content as he was lucky to be able to kill the Evil Wolf with Bull Horns.

At that moment, the regional announcement also sounded to announce the end of the fourth wave of monster attacks. Li Hanqiang was once again evaluated to be a perfect city defender and received four Chaotic Stone Slabs and a small wallet.

The experience gained for defending the city was also distributed as a white light shined, leveling up everyone it appeared on. Dark Redemption went up to Level 18, while Li Hanqiang also upgraded to Level 10.

However, as soon as the city defense was over, everyone apart from Dark Redemption, Fanning Knight, and Fiery Blade Sage ran away at the first moment they could.

“Why do you need to run?” Li Hanqiang was a little unhappy with this. He was trying to develop these players into becoming medicine dealers like Big Trader. Who would have thought that he would not have been given the chance to speak?

Dark Redemption came over then and said, “I am withdrawing and am not accepting any city defense tasks for the time being. I have to start doing a few small events and carry out my tasks. My equipment right now is too garbage and can’t keep up. See you later!”

“Then I’ll see you later. I shall still keep the Fireball for you. Don’t forget to bring me any exclusive Chaotic City Lord props to be exchanged for it!”

Li Hanqiang secretly sighed. He realized in his heart that with the current level Dark Redemption was at, he would only get small amounts of experience when killing monsters attacking the city that were more than five levels below him. It was not worthwhile for him to participate in city defense tasks.

If he was Dark Redemption, he would not continue city defense tasks. He would start venturing around, which would allow him to level up at a faster speed than the city defense tasks would.

As Dark Redemption left, both Fanning and Fiery ran over to ask him for dividends.

“I’m telling you, other Chaotic City Lord have issued gold coins after successfully defending the city. Compared to them, you are a bit too stingy.” Fanning Knight continued, “At least give each of us one piece of gold coin to buy potions and repair our equipment.”

Fiery Blade Sage said, “If you are our brother, you will give us some gold coins.”

“If we are brothers, don’t mention gold coins.” Li Hanqiang lacked enough gold coins at the moment. How would he be willing to give any to those two idiots?

With the money-wasting passive skill, Change Tower, his gold coins were never going to be enough.

Li Hanqiang used the same method that he had used to dupe Big Trader. Fanning Knight and Fiery Blade Sage became very much convinced after they heard the idea, thus turning around and becoming potions dealers.
