God-level Hero-Chapter 453 - 425: Trap the Fishman Boss by Closing the Hatch Door
Chapter 453: Chapter 425: Trap the Fishman Boss by Closing the Hatch Door
Da Fei certainly wouldn’t go blathering about the chaos in the rear that tarnishes the image of his resolute and heroic self within the team—it wouldn’t help the situation anyway.
What to do now? Head back? The problem is the team is besieged on all sides by Fishmen and can’t move at all for the moment! Forcing a breakout would be costly, and things might even fall apart!
Damn it, this boss’s timing for a sneak attack is just devastating! Without Blood Eagle, I wouldn’t even know how the ship was taken! Do I rely on Blood Eagle now? But if Blood Eagle goes into battle, it’ll be fighting independently without my bonuses—will that work?
At this point, this giant Fishman, twice the size of a human, has already leaped onto the bow of the ship. The five sailors left on guard, taken by surprise, drew their swords to meet the attack! Now with everyone else gone, these sailors, left without a leader, could only fight based on the AI’s automatic system, just like fighting against wild beasts.
No choice left, Blood Eagle must take action! The five sailors on the Octopus are all high-class "strong skilled sailors" employed from Dockworker’s Home, matching the level 4 soldiers, while Blood Eagle with 60 Attack and 20 Basic Damage also meets the standard of level 7 soldiers. All they could do now was gather everyone’s power and resist for a while, given that the Octopus also had a durability of thirty to forty thousand—it might just hold out until the team could come to rescue.
As Little Fei, with all skills activated, dove from the sky, the giant Fishman was already engaged in combat with the sailors; a sailor fell to the ground from the sharp bone spike in the Fishman’s hand in a single encounter!
Da Fei was startled, the damage was so high! A hit that could instantly kill a level 4 melee soldier with fifty to sixty health must be at least at the level of a level 7 soldier!
— Bang! Little Fei swooping down inflicted 40 points of damage on the Fishman’s head!
Da Fei’s heart tightened! 40 points of damage was just the result of doubling the Basic Damage from the Dive, or perhaps the Fishman’s Defense had negated some of the damage. From this, it can be deduced that this Fishman’s Defense must be at least 60 points! Such a high Attack and Defense Fishman was definitely not something a few sailors could defeat. It looks like the worst-case scenario is upon us!
The attack by Little Fei immediately drew the Fishman’s attention; it turned and looked up, but Little Fei had already flown up high!
Agile and nimble! This is the fundamental difference between raptorial aerial creatures and big Flying Soldiers like Griffin Angels! Although Griffin Angels can leverage flying to strike first, once engaged they have to stay on the ground and can’t immediately fly away; ultimately, the Griffin Angels’ mode of combat is still defined as ground troops. This means that ordinary Griffin Angels, ghost Griffins, and Green Dragons don’t have aerial combat capabilities, and they are equally helpless against a flock of crows. Flying is just a mode of movement for them, not a mode of combat!
Currently, faced with Blood Eagle flying high, the Fishman was somewhat stupefied, allowing the remaining four sailors to hit it with 3 and 4 points of damage.
Annoyed, the Fishman turned back and made a thrusting stab, but the movement was noticeably slow, and a sailor deftly dodged—"Miss!"
Da Fei’s eyebrows twitched—could it be, the symptoms of being slowed by Petrification Aura?
If that’s the case—
Da Fei immediately shouted, "Da Bing, quickly hand over the Captaincy to me! Hurry!"
Da Bing, somewhat startled, didn’t ask further and immediately transferred the Captaincy to Da Fei.
After taking over as Captain, Da Fei immediately selected those sailors—now he could command them!
Oh yeah! This indeed confirmed Da Fei’s speculation during the last competition. At that time, Deirdre had gone on an Independent Expedition, but with Little Fei following along, Da Fei could still command them. Da Fei had then speculated that Little Fei, linked by bloodline, was like the player’s avatar on the front line. Now the situation was similar, becoming Captain gave Da Fei the authority to command the sailors, even without being there, as long as Little Fei was present!
Now there was nothing to discuss. Gaining command, Da Fei immediately directed the sailors to run towards the cabin. The strategy now was one word—delay! Save as many soldiers as possible! As for Little Fei, with the Dive Skill in cooldown, diving down to tough it out was suicidal. All it could do was to keep hovering above the Fishman’s head, continuing to annoy it with Petrification Aura.
Under the influence of Petrification Aura, the Fishman watched helplessly as several sailors turned around. However, even so, its running speed was astonishing—indeed, Fishmen could move briskly even underwater, and once on shore where there’s no resistance from the water, their speed was beyond human imagination. The expression "come and go like flying" was apt.
Unluckily, one sailor was caught up by the Fishman, again killed with a bone spike in an instant!
And finally, the remaining three sailors rushed into the cabin doors, and just then, these three fools slammed into each other at the door, jamming it, and none managed to get through!
Damn!
But it doesn’t matter! The Fishman immediately charged from behind, stabbing another one with a bone spike and instantly solving the little problem of entering the door!
Damn!
At this point, the Fishman had already blocked the cabin door, making closing it impossible. However, given the size of this Fishman, could it even get in?
The Fishman immediately answered, yes, it could! It took a deep breath, lowered its head, bent its legs, and forcibly squeezed in! Moreover, the mucus covering its body acted like lubricant on the cabin walls, seemingly not affecting its movement much?
Damn! Da Fei was devastated, this damned thing is hell-bent on total extermination! No choice now but to keep running deeper into the cabin, delaying every second possible! Now, only two soldiers left, I have to split them, playing a cat-and-mouse game with it to the bitter end!
Just as the Fishman squeezed through the hatch, a startling idea suddenly popped into Da Fei’s mind—what if he shut this hatch, would this Fishman with its low intelligence be able to open it? If it couldn’t, wouldn’t it be like walking into a trap?
Right! Fishmen are a cunning species, moving like the wind, and fleeing immediately if the situation turns bad, making it difficult to kill an ordinary Fishman, let alone a Fishman BOSS! Indeed, fleeing immediately when things go awry is a common trait among Sea Monsters, which is why they are notoriously hard to kill! But now, if this Fishman was trapped and Da Fei’s team went back to sneak attack it, that would be hitting the jackpot! It would definitely be the world’s first Fishman BOSS loot drop! A loot drop would surely yield special products! But what kind of special products can a Fishman have? Anyway, the rewards couldn’t be bad!
So, how to close the hatch? Isn’t that quite simple? Da Fei now has two soldiers, just let it chase one of them, and the other can immediately shut the door! In the cramped cabin corridor, it couldn’t possibly catch up to a sailor!
Therefore, the key question is, will it be able to open the door! Anyway, it was absolutely necessary to give it a try.
Now, the Fishman rushed into the cargo hold, chasing the sailor who had fled there. While another sailor who was hiding in the sailors’ dormitory rushed toward the hatch—snap, crackle, pop! Lock the hatch!
Oh yeah! It’s closed! It’s a pity the hatch couldn’t be locked from the outside, otherwise, why would Da Fei worry about whether the Fishman could open it? Anyway, there was still time, Da Fei immediately directed the sailor who closed the door to the sailors’ dormitory to drag out chairs and quilts to pile in front of the door, covering the hatch bolt.
And just then, a tragic scream came from the cargo hold, that sailor met a glorious demise. Now, there was nothing else to say, the last sailor who completed the mission of closing the hatch bravely charged towards the Fishman that was pursuing him—then Da Fei’s screen went dark!
Complete annihilation! But it’s okay, their deaths were noble, Selvia will come back and rescue you.
Now, Da Fei immediately switched to Little Fei’s perspective, only to hear a banging noise from the Octopus!
Da Fei laughed heartily! It was really trapped, this creature really couldn’t open the door! Alright, keep banging, I won’t wait for you!
Da Fei, full of vigor, shouted in the team: "I’ve caught a Fishman BOSS, if you have any ultimate moves you’ve been hesitant to use, hurry and unleash them to clear the field! We’ll return to the ship immediately!"
The team was astounded: "Brother Fei caught a BOSS? When?"
Da Bing immediately shouted: "If Brother Fei said so, then it is so, hurry! Da Wei! Use your ultimate move!"
"Received!" The always quiet Da Wei and his troops flashed with blood light! Simultaneously, a large ring of blood mist engulfed the heads of Da Fei’s Secret Archer Troop!
—Team Alert: Team member Invincible Wei used special skill "Blood Breaking Frenzy Attack" on Da Fei’s Secret Archer Troop, boosting the Secret Archer Troop’s Attack Speed by 46%, unaffected by any interrupting effects, and Invincible Wei’s troops lose 20% HP per second, unable to receive any healing effects!
In that moment, the Secret Archer Troop, as if injected with adrenaline, straightened their bodies, which were getting beaten left and right by the Fishmen up close, and started firing arrows rapidly, piercing and knocking back, clearing a space in the surrounding Fishman crowd in just a few seconds!
Just a few seconds later, a tragic scream from Da Wei’s troops as they fell dead!
The whole team was astounded, Da Fei’s eyes widened in surprise! Damn, there really was an ultimate move! Sacrificing oneself for the benefit of others, where did this Divine Skill come from? Everything about Da Wei was good, just the name wasn’t!
But now wasn’t the time to be surprised, after this brief bout of frenzy, the situation turned dramatically. Of course, it wasn’t the time to aim for no casualties now, what was needed was for the Secret Archers to shoot without any obstructions!
So, Da Fei shouted again: "All melee troops, all high Defense team members, get out there and break through with all your might!"
"Received!"
As the peripheral Secret Archers cleared a path, the team members bravely fought their way out, with no regard for casualties, blasting an opening in the enclosing Fishman circle! The team could finally retreat!
Hahahaha! Right, similarly disregarding casualties for a breakthrough, if it had been used from the beginning, then it would reflect poor leadership by me. But now, using it after capturing a BOSS, it shows timely and wise decision-making! I’m too awesome!
The team fought while retreating, nearing the Octopus, and at this moment, the Fishman crowd stopped pursuing and again kept their distance.
Good, hurry aboard! Da Fei’s Storm Druid, Secret Archer Troop immediately blocked the hatch completely.
Meanwhile, the banging sounds on the hatch startled the team: "Oh my God! Brother Fei really trapped a BOSS! How did he do it!"
"Brother Fei, truly a divine being!"
Brother Hao, even more excited, said: "Brother Fei is truly the Brother Fei I admire the most. Just secure this BOSS, and I will continue to reward the entire team with 10,000 yuan!"
The whole team burst into cheers!
Da Fei laughed loudly, indeed, no thrilling victory could lack the support of a Tycoon, haha, hahaha! (To be continued.
