Chapter 644: Chapter 265 – A Sea of Flames (End of Month Plea for Monthly Pass)_3
“Such strength!”
That kick had cost Wang Tao 5,000 HP!
Wang Tao got up from the ground, saw that the Flame Monster still had three-quarters of its HP left, and his Entangling Roots had only half its HP left; he immediately began to transfer his own HP to the Entangling Roots!
In just a few seconds, the Entangling Roots’ HP was fully restored, while Wang Tao lost 50,000 HP.
Wang Tao didn’t feel any weakness at the moment, but he couldn’t dispel the Entangling Roots; otherwise, it would have been over for him.
Whoosh—
By this time, the Flame Monster had already charged in front of Wang Tao. Seeing that the monster was raising its foot again, a fierce-looking shield instantaneously appeared in Wang Tao’s hand.
Boom!
The Flame Monster’s kick landed on the shield, and while Wang Tao wasn’t injured, the impact numbed his hand a bit.
After attacking with its foot, the Flame Monster was much stronger. However, with Wang Tao using the shield, he wasn’t sent flying again, which saved him some time.
Wang Tao quickly stowed away the shield and slashed at the Flame Monster with a knife.
[-2319]
The Flame Monster kicked at Wang Tao again, but with his guard up, Wang Tao easily dodged the attack.
He raised the Bone Knife and performed another Indirect Attack.
But to Wang Tao’s surprise, the Flame Monster also dodged his strike. Moreover, its dodging posture was very similar to Wang Tao’s earlier one!
“Why does it feel like it’s imitating me?”
Wang Tao’s expression turned unsightly.
By now, he could almost be sure that this Flame Monster indeed possessed intelligence!
Never mind how high its intelligence was, the fact that it could learn Wang Tao’s techniques and use his own moves against him was causing Wang Tao a lot of discomfort.
What if it continues the fight and learns all of Wang Tao’s techniques?
“I have to end this quickly!”
Wang Tao gritted his teeth, and instantly, a tendril of Iron Tree Vine shot from his wrist. The vine wrapped around the Flame Monster’s body, preventing it from dodging, and then Wang Tao, holding the Bone Knife, began to wildly execute Indirect Attacks!
[-2386]
[-2287]
[…]
Though the Iron Tree Vine also contained the words “Iron Tree”, it did not have any Fire Resistance attributes. Wang Tao had tried before; the fire on the Flame Monster’s body could burn several hundred HP off the Iron Tree Vines every second.
So, unless it was a critical moment, Wang Tao certainly couldn’t afford to let the Iron Tree Vines die for nothing…
After being bound by the vine, the Flame Monster was stuck for a while. But after being slashed by Wang Tao several times, it finally broke free from the Iron Tree Vines.
Bang—
The Iron Tree Vines snapped!
Wang Tao quickly retracted it; this tendril was left with just a sliver of HP, barely surviving the Flame Monster’s attack!
Meanwhile, the Flame Monster had already lost half of its HP because of Wang Tao’s slashes. It suddenly raised its head, emitting a silent roar.
Then its flames began to burn even more fiercely.
[-23]
[-31]
[-28]
[…]
The Burn Damage Wang Tao was taking suddenly doubled!
Not knowing if the Flame Monster had any trump cards left, Wang Tao retreated immediately, putting some distance between them.
Whoosh!
“`
But as soon as Wang Tao turned around, he saw the flame monster charging towards him.
It was much faster than before!
Wang Tao had been able to kite the flame monster a bit before, but now, he was caught up in an instant.
Bang!
[-6783]
Wang Tao was slapped fiercely.
“The damage has increased this much!”
With a grimace, Wang Tao saw the damage number while being struck.
If the flame monster’s damage had increased by so much, Wang Tao might no longer stand a chance against it!
“Wang Tao, how much longer do you need?”
At that moment, He Jijun’s voice came through the headset, which was well protected by the entangling roots and thus still functional.
Wang Tao quickly looked up and saw the giant zombie in the distance swatting at the helicopter like it was chasing mosquitoes, with the helicopter in dire straits.
When Wang Tao looked over, he saw the giant zombie suddenly throw an abandoned sedan at the helicopter, which flew past, scraping the side of the helicopter and causing sparks to scatter, while two heavy machine guns fired at the giant zombie.
At this sight, Wang Tao took a deep breath.
“Give me three more minutes; I’ll be ready for pickup in three minutes!”
“Alright!”
He Jijun didn’t say much more, and even his tone was steady, without any panting.
Wang Tao shifted his gaze back to the flame monster that had already reached him, immediately using every potion available to him – the running potion, strength potion, mental potion, and the like.
These potions didn’t last long, but they had a long cooldown. They could only be used at critical moments, like right now.
As soon as the potions entered his system, Wang Tao immediately felt his physical condition improve significantly.
With a slight sidestep, he instantly dodged another attack from the flame monster.
Then he turned around sharply and kicked at the flame monster.
Bang!
[-1092]
He used Indirect Attack in that kick, which knocked off over a thousand HP from the flame monster.
The flame monster was sent flying, landing outside the sea of fire.
Wang Tao immediately rushed out of the sea of fire as well.
The flame monster landed among a group of zombies that had not left the perimeter of the sea of fire.
Then… in an instant, the zombies within a few meters of the flame monster were set ablaze. These zombies lost five to six thousand HP every second, and in the blink of an eye, they were burned to cinders.
“Damn it!”
Wang Tao was initially stunned and then seemed to understand something.
He had wondered why this flame monster seemed weaker, at least not as strong as the previous Level 4 Lord Night Demon. After all, he couldn’t take on a Level 4 Lord Night Demon alone, but he could handle this flame monster.
But now Wang Tao understood, it wasn’t that the flame monster was weak, but that its strongest ability was its flames! However, those flames were blocked by Wang Tao’s entangling roots!
The flame monster’s burning of the entangling roots caused only a few dozen HP loss per second. But when burning those zombies, it caused thousands of HP loss per second!
Realizing this, Wang Tao took a deep breath and then charged toward the flame monster.
But at that moment, the flame monster suddenly turned its head towards Wang Tao. The flames on its body expanded rapidly! They reached three meters high, five meters high, even ten meters high!
Then—boom!
A burst of flames exploded!
A huge fire erupted, covering the sky and the earth.
Within a hundred meters radius, everything was engulfed in a sea of fire!
