Time was running short, and Wang Tao couldn’t bother to explain much. After saying a word to his teammates, he directly jumped out of the plane.
“Good!”
He Jijun responded and then said to the others:
“Hold tight, I’m going to give you guys a thrilling ride!”
Buzzing—
He Jijun controlled the helicopter to turn on the spot, then headed straight for the Giant Zombie!
On the ground, Wang Tao shifted his gaze. He looked toward the Flame Monster not far away.
Having just emerged from the sea of fire, Wang Tao could now clearly see that it indeed had a humanoid shape, very tall, but obviously, it wasn’t human.
Wang Tao felt that this Flame Monster seemed to lack any offensive abilities, and coupled with his own fire resistance, he dared to face it alone.
Of course, if he misjudged, Wang Tao would immediately call He Jijun to retreat.
He was risking it all; after all, he was just one Ascension Crystal Core away, and now that there was a rare opportunity to kill a Level 4 Lord, he couldn’t give up. It’s just a pity that it was daytime and he couldn’t use the Night Demon Type 1…
Wang Tao gripped his Bone Knife and unleashed a shockwave at the Flame Monster.
[-1134]
Suddenly, after being attacked, the Flame Monster began running toward Wang Tao.
[-11]
[-12]
[-14]
[…]
As the Flame Monster approached, numbers appeared above Wang Tao’s head indicating HP loss.
The flames on the Flame Monster’s body weren’t fake; they had a burning effect!
But Wang Tao was fully covered by Entangled Iron Tree Roots which provided fire resistance, so he didn’t lose much HP. In fact, he didn’t even feel that hot.
Previously, Wang Tao didn’t have much of an idea about the fire resistance ability of Entangling Roots, since he hadn’t had the chance to use it. But now, he roughly understood.
The Flame Monster was fast but not as swift as the Level 4 Night Demon from before. Wang Tao could clearly see its trajectory and, once again, swung his knife at it, using high-frequency vibration instinctively this time.
Bang!
[-1]
Wang Tao felt as if he had struck a rock.
“It has a physical body?”
Wang Tao was somewhat surprised.
He’d thought that this Flame Monster might be an entity of pure energy or something, hence impervious to ordinary physical attacks.
But Wang Tao now realized, it wasn’t as he thought; the Flame Monster did have a physical body!
After being hit by Wang Tao’s knife, the Flame Monster humanly turned its head to look at his knife, then suddenly lifted its hand and lightly slapped towards Wang Tao’s chest.
Bang!
[-3773]
Wang Tao was sent flying backward in an instant!
Crash—
He crashed through a wall and fell into a warehouse that was still ablaze.
“Damn it!”
Indeed, the Flame Monster hadn’t shown any offensive abilities, but with a mere slap, it dealt over three thousand damage to the Entangled Iron Tree Roots!
Its physical constitution might not be as formidable as the Night Demon’s, but it was still not weak!
The only consolation now was that the physical constitution of the Flame Monster was seemingly weaker than that of the Level 4 Night Demon. If it were like that Night Demon, able to deal over ten thousand damage with a slap to the Entangled Iron Tree Roots, it would truly be invincible.
Swoosh!
Wang Tao burst out of the warehouse and collided with the Flame Monster at the entrance.
He held a knife in one hand and a gun in the other.
Pulling the trigger as he swung the knife at the Flame Monster.
[-1589]
[-1224]
Unflinchingly, the Flame Monster took both hits. Then, it slapped Wang Tao again.
Bang!
[-3823]
Wang Tao once more flew into the warehouse, this time breaking through another wall.
The damage was absorbed by the Entangling Roots, leaving Wang Tao unaffected. So, he quickly got up and charged at the Flame Monster again.
However, Wang Tao had no intention of clashing head-on. Upon reaching the Flame Monster, he swiftly used Instant Strike, then made a quick getaway.
[-1]
The Flame Monster lost another drop of blood.
“Instant Strike is indeed ineffective…”
The Flame Monster turned and ran toward Wang Tao.
Wang Tao wasn’t as fast as the Flame Monster, but he wasn’t much slower either. As long as he didn’t stop, the Flame Monster wouldn’t be able to catch him anytime soon. But Wang Tao needed to figure out which of his abilities could harm the Flame Monster, which made fights inevitable, so they had several close encounters.
[-1]
[-1]
“Continuous Slash doesn’t work…”
[-1]
“Energize One Hit is also ineffective…”
[-1]
“Various mental attacks also don’t work…”
[-2138]
“Eh? Indirect Attack actually works?!”
After sacrificing some of the Entangled Iron Tree Roots’ HP, Wang Tao roughly figured it out. Among the abilities he knew, only Shockwave, Air Bullet, and Indirect Attack could damage the Flame Monster!
Wang Tao was actually quite surprised; he didn’t expect that Indirect Attack could damage the Flame Monster, and its damage was much higher than both Shockwave and Air Bullet!
This was a pleasant surprise for Wang Tao.
Originally, he thought he could kite the Flame Monster by exploiting the fire resistance of the Entangled Iron Tree Roots and using Shockwave and Air Bullet.
But after engaging with it, he realized that both the speed and physical constitution of the Flame Monster were formidable! Even without offensive abilities, Wang Tao might not be able to withstand it.
This made Wang Tao quite uncomfortable, as relying on the low-damage Shockwave and Air Bullet, he felt he had no chance of killing this Flame Monster.
Unwilling to give up, Wang Tao wanted to try again, after all, he had so many attack abilities, perhaps others might work too?
And indeed, there turned out to be an effect—I- Indirect Attack could actually cause two thousand damage to the Flame Monster!
