Lu Li didn't open the chest immediately, he knelt down and touched the wet ground .

It was sticky!

The first thought that flashed through his mind was there were Oozelings around . He had fought so many of them today, and this feeling was very specific to thems .

The Oozelings didn't have hands and feet, so they left a trail of this slime as they wriggled across the ground .

The cave was very dark, but Lu Li could still see the trail . However, it wasn't the same the ones outside – it was huge .

Was there a Boss inside here?

Lu Li never knew that there was a Boss in Skulk Rock . This small map had never been properly explored, so no one had ever discovered this hidden stone cave .

However, apart from the trail on the ground, he couldn't see any traces of the Boss at all . Was the Boss not home?

Lu Li had no other option but to settle on this ridiculous conclusion .

Most of the Bosses in Dawn were not designed by the designers to be stupid monsters that stood around waiting for the players to arrive . They all had distinct behaviors and movement patterns .



Sometimes, it even seemed as though they had their own lives and careers, just like normal people .

It wasn't clear what this Boss was up to, so Lu Li didn't delay and quickly cast Unlock on the treasure chest . At the same time, he messaged the players outside, "Be aware of the situation around me; I suspect there is a Boss here . If you see it, help me stall it for 30 seconds . "

Sure enough, the entire Skulk Rock area began to shake the moment Lu Li began channeling his Unlock Skill .

This wasn't an attack, so it didn't interrupt his channel, but it did affect the time . Lu Li forced himself to ignore what was happening and focused on unlocking the treasure chest .

The shaking was growing stronger and stronger .

"Boss, we can feel something coming out of the mud!" the players cried out in terror . It was as though an ancient monster was waking up from a deep sleep .

"The Boss told us to stall it for 30 seconds . Everyone, get your attacks ready; we have to stall for the Boss!" someone shouted, finally taking charge of their task .

The players stood their ground and prepared themselves ready to fight .

"Don't be stupid – hurry up and run away . You just need to leave two Mages here," Lu Li couldn't help but laugh . These players weren't thinking straight; they weren't going to kill the Boss, so why would they need all 100 players?

Everyone suddenly realized that Lu Li had a point and began clearing a path to escape . Eventually, they had all left except for the two Mages left behind .



Skulk Rock actually covered a large area . They initially thought they had completely searched, but they quickly realized how naïve they were . One by one, the Oozelings in the ground burst out and were swarming everywhere .

Due to the shaking from below, their movements were becoming more and more frantic .

It was difficult conceive of the Boss that lurked in the depths of the quagmires in Skulk Rock . Or perhaps, Skulk Rock's mud was part of the Boss .

These mobs were higher than level 50, so the Boss would certainly be an even higher level .

Lu Li felt like the two rocks that formed this cavern would fall apart . It was as though he was in a boat in a storm that could overturn at any time, but he stood firm and pressed on .

His Unlock skill was slow, but he remained resolute .

He was past the halfway mark!

At that moment, time seemed to slow down . Lu Li felt like he had been waiting for his Unlock to finish for several minutes .

Something was already coming through the cracks in the mud…

"Boss, come again next time . We need more people to kill this Boss!" the players outside urged in desperation . This monster was a few dozen yards wide . From what they could see, its appearance was exactly like an Oozeling .

Moreover, there were at least a few thousand Oozelings gathering towards it . Even the Oozelings that had just come out of the quagmires were creeping towards it .

As they wriggled onto the body of the Boss, it continued to increase in size .

Were they merging? Or were they being devoured?

The Boss didn't simply stay put to continue growing larger . Instead, it began charging forwards towards the boulder at an unnatural speed .

The two Mages desperately cast their skills onto it, but it was unstoppable .

It only had one goal – to attack the Thief who had snuck into the area and was stealing their items .

The treasure that the Troll Elder had hidden here now obviously had a new owner .

Lu Li didn't look up, and the voices in his ear had vanished .

It wasn't until he heard a 'bang' that he returned to the real world – the chest had been unlocked!

Lu Li rushed forwards and opened the chest as the Boss engulfed the boulders . He grabbed whatever was in it and turned back into a leopard to run . Before transforming, he threw two bombs into the gap .

After the Boss engulfed the boulder, it began the force the gap between them shut .

It definitely wasn't stupid – it knew that as long as these two boulders were firmly pressed together, the Thief inside would have no choice but to give up .

However, two bombs exploded one after the other .

This created a crack that was slightly bigger than the one that existed before .

The bombs thrown out by Lu Li didn't cause any harm to him, but the pebbles that hit him dealt a string of damage .

This natural damage was based on the level of the map .

The explosion of a level 50 map did tremendous damage to Lu Li, and he lost a significant portion of his HP .

Fortunately, he had thrown the second bomb a little further away, so he wasn't as affected . Otherwise, he would have died on the spot . In the chaos, he rushed out and onto the muddy plains .

"Retreat!" Lu Li shouted .

The two remaining Mages were slow to react . They were relatively low-ranking and had already prepared themselves to die .

However, the Boss had completely ignored them . Just when they thought that Lu Li was done for, they saw him rush out majestically .

After Lu Li had become a leopard, his size was tiny compared to the huge monster chasing him .
