Chapter 7 - Chapter 6: Frostfang Victory

[神裔系统 - 弑神者]

主机:Kael Voss | 游戏内ID:Zhu Shen伙伴:Gareth | 游戏内ID:Shadow同伴:

芬里尔幼崽令人毛骨悚然的咆哮声依然在霜牙洞穴冰冷的石壁间回荡,浓厚的寒雾在它巨大的冰蓝色皮毛周围缭绕.空气寒冷刺骨,凯尔,加雷斯和莉拉呼出的每一次呼吸都化作白雾,脚下的地面也覆盖着一层滑腻的永久霜层.这里并非普通怪物的巢穴——而是北欧冰狼神后裔,一头年轻的神话巨兽的领地,其难度远远超出了普通10级新手玩家的挑战范围.

还没等众人摆出防御姿态,芬里尔幼崽便猛地绷紧后腿,以惊人的速度向前猛扑.它巨大的爪子锋利如冰刃,狠狠地砸在冰冻的地面上,激起的冰霜碎片四处飞溅.怪物的血盆大口张开,一股湍急的淡蓝色冰霜吐息喷涌而出,以势不可挡的速度直奔朱慎和暗影而去.

[冰霜吐息]!激活!效果:对击中的所有目标施加冰霜减速(移动速度-50%,攻击速度-30%,持续时间5秒);冻结地形10秒.

"闪避!"凯尔声嘶力竭地喊道,多年顶级虚拟战斗磨练出的反应速度瞬间爆发.他左手抓住加雷斯的胳膊,使出浑身力气将他向后拉去,两人在冰面上翻滚,做出一个急促而精准的闪避动作.寒气喷吐在他们身后的石墙上,眨眼间,整块岩石表面就被一层厚厚的,易碎的冰层覆盖,在压力下发出清脆的裂纹声.

如果他们被那次攻击击中,冰霜减速效果会让他们完全无法防御首领的下一次攻击.

"保持距离!别让它用近战冰霜技能把你困住!"凯尔气喘吁吁地说着,迅速起身,紧紧握住他的新手短剑.他的目光牢牢锁定在芬里尔幼龙那只闪着蓝光的右眼上——这是它唯一的弱点,他的[侦测Lv.1]技能已经清晰地标示出来.这是唯一能造成大量伤害并突破首领高防御的方法.

Gareth nodded silently, his cold, sharp gaze never leaving the mythic wolf. He quickly circled to the left side of Fenrir's Whelp, deliberately moving to draw the boss's aggro away from the rear and away from Lila, who was standing safely behind a rock. The giant ice wolf let out an angry snarl, spinning around violently and snapping its frost-covered fangs at Shadow; every bite carried the terrifying frost effect that could immobilize them in an instant.

Shadow's movements were as silent and agile as a real shadow. He darted left and right in a narrow space, dodging the boss's frantic bites and pounces with ease. Every time Fenrir's Whelp leaped at him, he slipped away like wisp of smoke, not letting the monster's claws or fangs graze him once. He was buying precious time for Zhu Shen to find an opening to strike the weak point—this was the perfect tactical cooperation they had calibrated to 99% sync before the game launched.

But the strength of the mythic boss far exceeded their preliminary estimates.

Just as Kael adjusted his posture to charge forward, Fenrir's Whelp suddenly twisted its body in an unnatural angle and swung its thick, icy tail. The tail cut through the cold air like a heavy hammer, slamming directly into Gareth's waist with a brutal impact.

67 DMG! (Red Damage Number)Status Effect: Frost SlowActivated! Movement Speed -50%, Attack Speed -30%, Duration 3 Seconds.

Gareth's body stiffened instantly. His legs felt as heavy as lead, filled with a piercing cold that spread from his waist to his entire body. He could not move a single step, his sword frozen halfway in his hand. Fenrir's Whelp seized this fatal opening, lowering its head and lunging straight at the immobilized Shadow, its sharp fangs bared to tear him apart on the spot.

"Shadow!" Kael roared, his heart skipping a beat. Without a second of hesitation, he rushed forward like a bolt of lightning, slamming his entire body into Gareth and shoving him out of the boss's attack range. The monster's icy fangs grazed Kael's shoulder fiercely, and a bone-piercing cold instantly spread through his limbs, freezing his blood almost solid.

59 DMG! (Red Damage Number)Status Effect: Frost SlowActivated! Movement Speed -50%, Attack Speed -30%, Duration 3 Seconds.

Both of the core combatants of Godslayer's Legion were trapped in the frost slow effect, their movements completely restricted.

Fenrir's Whelp let out a triumphant, savage snarl, taking a heavy step forward to deliver the finishing blow. The situation had turned desperate in an instant—any ordinary team of Level 10 players would have been wiped out and sent back to the novice camp right here.

"Luna! Get back! Hide behind the rock!" Kael shouted with all his strength, struggling to lift his sword. His fingers were stiff with cold, and he could barely wrap his hand around the hilt. Every muscle in his body screamed in pain from the frost, and he could not even take a step forward to block the boss.

But Lila did not retreat.

Her small face was tense and serious, but there was not a single trace of fear in her bright, clear eyes. She stared at the thick frost covering Kael and Gareth's bodies, then quickly lowered her head to look at the linen gathering pouch hanging on her waist—filled with the bright white Moonbloom flowers she had picked in the Emberwood Forest.

She clearly remembered every word Kael had taught her during their pre-game training: Moonbloom contains pure warm spiritual energy, which can neutralize all low-level ice and frost attribute debuffs. This was the only lifeline they had right now.

Without a single moment of hesitation, Lila reached into her pouch and plucked three plump Moonbloom flowers. She pressed them tightly in her small palms, crushing the petals and stamens into fine pollen with all her strength. Then she took a deep breath and threw the glowing white flower dust with all her might at Kael and Gareth.

The Moonbloom pollen landed gently on their frost-covered bodies, and a soft, warm golden light burst out instantly, wrapping around the two men and melting the cold frost away like snow under the sun.

Ding! Luna uses Moonbloom Pollen!Ding! Targets Zhu Shen & Shadow: Frost Slow Effect Removed!Ding! Luna gains Support Proficiency +10!

The bone-piercing cold and stiff restriction vanished completely in an instant. Kael and Gareth's bodies regained their full flexibility and movement speed, as if they had been pulled back from the brink of death.

"Perfect! Well done, Luna!" Kael's eyes lit up with fierce determination. This was the only opening they would get—they could not waste it.

Gareth did not waste even a split second. He charged forward at full speed, his novice sword raised high. Instead of attacking the boss's tough body, he aimed straight for the tendons on Fenrir's Whelp's front paws, slashing repeatedly with precise, ruthless strikes.

35 DMG!32 DMG!Fenrir's Whelp: Staggered! Leg Mobility Reduced by 70% for 2 Seconds!

The giant mythic wolf let out a sharp, painful whine. Its front legs buckled uncontrollably, and its upper body crashed downward heavily. Its glowing right eye—the fatal weak point—was now completely exposed, unprotected and unobstructed.

This was the moment of victory.

"Now, Zhu Shen!" Gareth roared at the top of his lungs.

Kael erupted forward like a bolt of black lightning. He channeled all his Strength and stamina into his right arm, activating the new skill he had just unlocked upon reaching Level 10: [Charge Strike Lv.1].

他手中的新手短剑闪耀着耀眼的金光,将所有力量凝聚于一击之中.凯尔高高跃起,身躯在空中扭转,用尽全力向下刺去——精准地刺入了芬里尔幼崽裸露的右眼.

128点伤害!(紫色伤害数字!弱点攻击!暴击!)

一声凄厉凄厉的嚎叫震动了整个霜牙洞穴,在冰冷的通道中回荡,震得墙壁上的霜块纷纷脱落.那头巨大的冰蓝色狼猛地倒在地上,身体不受控制地抽搐着.它那双闪着蓝光的眼睛迅速黯淡下来,环绕着它的冰霜气息也慢慢消散在寒冷的空气中.

叮!芬里尔幼崽(15级神话冰狼小首领)已被击杀!叮!朱申获得800经验值!叮!暗影获得800经验值!叮!露娜获得400经验值(协助通关奖励)!

温暖的金光笼罩着他们三人,涌入他们的体内,迅速提升了他们的能量水平.

叮!朱神升级!10级→11级!获得5点属性点!叮!暗影升级!10级→11级!获得5点属性点!叮!露娜升级!1级→5级!获得10点属性点!

洞穴里令人窒息的紧张气氛终于彻底放松下来.加雷斯跪了下来,轻轻拍了拍莉拉的头,他平日里冷峻的脸上露出了难得一见的温暖笑容."小家伙,你救了我们俩.要不是你的月光花,我们早就被送回新手营,失去一切了."

莉拉咧嘴一笑,双眼弯成明亮的弯月,兴奋地踮着脚尖."我刚刚按照你教我的做了!我就知道月花能帮我们驱散寒霜!"

凯尔缓缓走向首领的尸体,只见冰冻的地面上出现了一个闪闪发光的银色宝箱和几件闪亮的物品——这是击败整个余烬森林中第一个神话级小首领的丰厚奖励,是任何普通新手玩家都梦寐以求的奖赏.

他伸手摸到宝箱的锁上,宝箱咔哒一声打开了.
