GTA Chapter 60

This entry is part 61 of 236 in the series Online Game: God Tier Assasin, I am The Shadow!

Soul Purifier Faisal’s thunderous body flashed with blade strikes, as damage numbers continuously appeared above its head.

It attempted to counterattack immediately but couldn’t locate the person who had struck it!

The high-damage single-target lightning skill it was about to release couldn’t be cast because it had no target…

All it could do was raise its arms of pure lightning and unleash a wide-area attack skill!

Hundreds of lightning bolts gathered on the ceiling and rained down onto the ground.

These bolts took less than 0.3 seconds from gathering to striking.

If Qin Feng got hit, with his current defense and lightning resistance, it would mean instant death!

And Qin Feng’s 75% dodge rate wasn’t very helpful against these lightning attacks.

This was because bosses of platinum level or higher had hit corrections on all their skills and attacks.

“Soul Purifier’s hit correction must be over 100%.”

“In other words, its accuracy against anyone is at least doubled!”

For instance, Qin Feng currently had a 75% dodge rate, meaning normal monsters had only a 25% chance of hitting him.

But with this boss, its hit rate against him would be 50% or even higher!

In his previous life, Qin Feng had only fought this boss once, so he wasn’t entirely sure of its stats. All he had were rough estimates…

Fortunately, Qin Feng’s agility, enhanced by his class advancement and the Plague Blade, had reached 182 points.

His full-speed running could now exceed 40 meters per second!

As long as he paid close attention and dodged before the lightning fully gathered, he could avoid getting hit.

This technique was nearly impossible for players at the current stage of the game.

Even if they had double Qin Feng’s agility, they still wouldn’t be able to avoid this lightning storm without making a mistake.

But for Qin Feng…

His nine years of combat experience had trained him to dodge skills instinctively.

Later-stage bosses were much more absurd than this one.

This boss’s attacks were nothing by comparison!

“In my last life, we only survived this skill by relying on luck and the priests’ shields.”

“But this time, I won’t give the boss any chance.”

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

By the third second of the battle, **Blessed Release**’s damage, combined with the Plague Blade’s effect, had already depleted the first phase of the boss’s health, draining 250,000 HP!

When the Soul Purifier’s health dropped by one-third, a layer of lightning shield appeared around it, and three lightning orbs materialized in the sky, orbiting the boss.

Three lightning chains connected the orbs to the Soul Purifier.

The boss had entered a shielded phase!

The orbs had to be destroyed first.

In his previous life, this phase had wiped out Qin Feng’s entire team once.

After that, Qin Xiaoyou had thrown a tantrum, refusing to continue…

So, Qin Feng left her out of the raid.

And the raid succeeded without her, though Qin Feng had gained experience from the previous attempt. It didn’t help that Qin Xiaoyou wasn’t much of an asset anyway…

Dodging skills nearly killed her.

Healing?

Did she even have hands?

**Poisoned Dart!**

Qin Feng waited for **Shadow** to finish cooling down, then casually threw a poisoned dart, hitting one of the orbiting lightning orbs dead center!

After throwing the dart, Qin Feng returned to stealth…

While Qin Feng remained in stealth, the Soul Purifier continued launching wide-area attacks.

But dodging those lightning strikes was second nature to Qin Feng, and it posed no challenge at all.

One dart after another flew out.

One **Shadow Slash** after another struck.

Soon, the three rapidly orbiting lightning orbs were destroyed.

The boss entered the second phase!

**Blessed Release!**

**Shadow Slash!**

The lightning-wreathed boss was engulfed in shadowy blade strikes, with damage numbers erupting from its body!

Three seconds later…

The boss transitioned to the third phase!

Ring after ring of lightning spread outward from the boss, pulsing in waves from its core.

In his previous life, Qin Feng’s entire team had to equip full sets of lightning-resistant gear, along with four priest shields and constant healing, just to barely survive this phase.

But this time…

Qin Feng simply used **Shadow Slash** to dash to the ceiling of the hall, grabbing onto a beam with one hand.

He perfectly dodged all the lightning rings!

It must be said, this boss was indeed difficult, but Qin Feng had prepared thoroughly before engaging.

Five minutes into the battle…

The boss was going berserk, unleashing relentless lightning attacks.

Qin Feng activated **Black Light Shield**, converting his entire dodge rate into a 7-layer damage-absorbing shield. Then, with one last **Blessed Release** followed by **Shadow Slash**, he slashed through the boss, wiping out its remaining third of its health in an instant!

The Soul Purifier’s wild lightning attacks struck him, but the **Black Light Shield** absorbed every bit of damage!

Three seconds later, Soul Purifier Faisal’s lightning form dissolved into a cluster of electric orbs that scattered across the ground, and a system notification echoed in the minds of every player worldwide:

——

【Player ‘Shadow (Jianghai City)’ has achieved the world’s first kill of a Platinum-level boss, gaining 10 reputation points!】

——

As the system announcement spread, players around the globe were left in shock!

Just moments ago, many were discussing how Shadow might be struggling with his progression.

And yet…

Here he was, achieving the first kill of a Platinum-level boss?

“What the…? A Platinum-level first kill? Solo?”

“No way! I just got to the continent and I’m still dying endlessly in the city ruins. How is this guy soloing a Platinum-level boss?”

“We’ve been wiped three times trying to take down a Gold-level boss, and Shadow just soloed a Platinum boss? What kind of insane talent does he have?”

“Damn! It’s that Da Xia’s Shadow again? Does anyone know his real identity?”

“I say we nuke Jianghai City in Da Xia!”

“Great idea. Next time, don’t suggest it. You think Da Xia is that easy to mess with?”

“Haha, one nuke for me, one nuke for you—let’s all go out with a bang!”

Meanwhile, as Qin Feng’s first-kill announcement was spreading across the system…

In Shell Town…

Qin Xiaoyou had just been cleaved in half by a giant axe-wielding silver-level boss!

【You have died, losing 14 years of non-tradable lifespan!】

【You have died, losing 2 days of tradable lifespan!】

As she respawned in Shell Town, Qin Xiaoyou was dazed.

“Did… did I die again?”

A teammate’s angry voice erupted in the team chat: “You idiot healer! That boss had a giant axe, and you couldn’t dodge it?”

Already in a bad mood, Qin Xiaoyou snapped when she heard her teammate’s insult. “Who are you calling an idiot? You’re the tank! If you can’t hold the boss properly, how is that my fault? You expect me to dodge everything, huh?”

Her teammate yelled back, “How was I supposed to hold a wide-area attack, huh? You’re the one being stupid!”

【Player ‘Level 8 Cyclone’ has left the team!】

Soon, only three people were left in the team.

Qin Xiaoyou, Chu Yan, and Zhang Wei.

They had encountered a silver boss while grinding earlier, and this was the second time they’d been wiped out.

Zhang Wei couldn’t take it anymore and said, “The system just told me I’m hungry. I’m logging off to eat.”

Now, only Chu Yan and Qin Xiaoyou remained in the party, but soon after, they were both killed by the boss and respawned in the town square.

Chu Yan, a short-haired girl and archer, made her way through the crowd and approached Qin Xiaoyou, sighing. “Xiaoyou, maybe we should focus on leveling up for now? Otherwise, we’re going to run out of lifespan soon…”

“Alright…”

Qin Xiaoyou was on the verge of tears.

Why is this game so hard?

Then she saw the notification about Shadow’s Platinum-level first kill, and her frustration only deepened.

Why was it that all her teammates were useless noobs?
