Chapter 13: The Golden Slime

【Proof of Challenge】(Special Item)

Number of uses: 0/1

Feature: Not discardable

Description: The true brave should not be afraid of any challenge, go to the challenge space, and challenge their own limits! The item disappears after use.

The Proof of Challenge is a special item that, except for the occasional purchase from the Mystery Merchant, most of the time, it can only be found in chests with a small probability, which is very rare. Its actual value may not be comparable to a piece of Black Iron Equipment, but it may also be worth a higher level of Bronze Equipment, or even Legendary Equipment, depending on the time of use and the player's level and strength.

Its function is to send the player to a challenge space independent of the world, where there is only one player, and the longer the player can hold on, the higher the reward will be obtained until the player dies at the end of the challenge.

Generally speaking, the maximum reward for challenging a space is determined by the highest level of equipment that the current player can obtain. Therefore, if Lin Chen enters the challenge space now, unless he completes the challenge achievement, the highest reward he can get is the black iron equipment, which is not worth it.

Lin Chen put away the challenge certificate and didn't use it indiscriminately, he estimated that if he went to the challenge space now, he would probably not even get a reward for a piece of black iron equipment. Of course, such a good thing should wait until the right time and be fully prepared before using it.

He then recrafted the torch and continued to happily search for the Slime Raid experience.

The drawback of the slime's fear of flames is fatal, making Lin Chen's brush up of the slime basically unharmed, and his experience really rises rapidly. At his current leveling speed, it is estimated that after another ten minutes of brushing the slime, he can level up again.

Well?

Lin Chen stopped, because in front of him, a huge yellow creature appeared in the forest, shining in the sun. From the outside, it looks a little similar to those green slimes, but the colors are different, and there are hundreds of slimes on top of their heads.

Is it a boss? He thought excitedly, and threw out a reconnaissance spell—

Golden Slime (Bronze Boss)

Level: 5

Health: 1250

Magic Attack: 24-30

Physical Defense: 26

Magical Defense: 27

Skills: Corrosion, Splitting

Description: The evolution of the weak monster slime, with a golden outer membrane, also known as the Golden Jelly, is also considered a hegemon in the Misty Forest, at least until the arrival of a more powerful monster. It may look cute, but those who anger it often end well, and as for what happened, a plump widow can tell you that her husband has been completely dead since he went to the Misty Forest......

Sure enough, it's a boss!

When the map boss is killed by the player for the first time, it will explode 100% of the equipment of the same level, which means that the bronze boss that is killed for the first time will definitely burst out a bronze quality equipment, which is one level higher than the black iron quality equipment.

However, Lin Chen didn't get excited for long, and he began to worry.

What is the saying? The farthest distance in the world is when I am right in front of you, and you don't know that I love you. And at this moment, Lin Chen's feeling is that the most bitter thing in the world is that the BOSS stands in front of him, but he doesn't dare to take any action against the BOSS.

I can't beat it!

If there is a boss who is the king of the tusked boar and the tusked rabbit, he is still confident that he will challenge it with his rich skills and excellent positioning, but with this iron sword in his hand, he really can't do anything in the face of this golden slime.

The corrosive ability of an ordinary slime almost killed him, and the more powerful golden slime, even the lowest-level boss is a boss, and he has absolutely no way to deal with it with ordinary means.

The scorching flame is the weakness of the slime, but it is not the weakness of the golden slime, Lin Chen has already tried it, and the golden slime is indifferent to the proximity of the flame. And on its huge body, there is a petrification phenomenon that cannot be slapped in the face, which does not affect the boss's actions at all.

The meat that is almost in the mouth, and no one will be willing to give it up directly.

Lin Chen sighed, if only he could have a long-range attack method.

Ranged Attack Methods......

He glanced at the torch in his hand, maybe he could use the torch in his hand as a throwing weapon, although the hit rate of throwing things at the target was very poor, but the target of the golden slime in front of him was huge enough, and it was slow, as long as he was not stupid, he would not miss all the time.

He decided to confirm his idea, made another torch, and hid behind a large tree not far away.

Aim! Throwing!

"Smack!"

Well, his first throw was a little off the rails and landed on a side stone, and the fall made the torch completely scrapped.

Lin Chen was not discouraged, remade a torch, and threw it again. This time, it was an accurate hit.

The torch parabola landed on the Golden Slime's body, and some smoke came out with a "squeak" and quickly extinguished, but it also did damage to the Golden Slime.

“-18”

The damage is not high, but it is not low, and most importantly, it can ensure the safety of Lin Chen himself.

The Golden Slime moved angrily, searching for the enemies hiding around, but Lin Chen had already left the area, and it was impossible for it to detect.

He's racing against the clock.

Although Lin Chen believed in himself, he was definitely a big step ahead of the players in this novice village, and stepped into the misty forest first, but he was not too superstitious about his advantages. He knew that even if other players didn't have adventures, they could be upgraded to one or two levels at this point, and it wouldn't be too much of a problem to team up and step into the Misty Forest.

I don't know how long those players are before they go deep into the Misty Forest, deep into his position.

In short, he must race against the clock to kill the boss before other players find out about it and get the first kill reward.

If you use torches as a throwing weapon, you will need at least 70 torches, even if you hit 100% without considering the boss's health regeneration. He was conservative and decided to prepare 200 torches in case anything happened.

It took him almost half an hour to prepare all the materials.

He rested a little, quickly returned to where the golden slime had stayed, and without hesitation, he took out a torch and lit it and threw it, constantly attacking.

Some torches are extinguished in mid-air, some don't hit the golden slime and are scrapped directly after falling, and those torches that successfully hit the golden slime can basically cause more than ten points of damage to the boss.

These are to be expected.

But Lin Chen soon discovered a problem, and there were two deviations in his prediction of this battle. The first is that although the Golden Slime moves slowly, it is in terms of his shape, which is scaled to the same size as an ordinary slime, and now the Golden Slime looks at his slow movements, but in fact, the real movement speed is not much slower than his. The second is that he didn't think much about the skill of the golden slime, a skill called "split", after the golden slime received a certain amount of damage, it could split into a small individual and interfere with Lin Chen's actions.

Golden Lime Lv.5

Health: 200, Magical Attack: 18-22, Physical Defense: 18, Magical Defense: 19

Skill: Corrosion

Description: Naughty monsters split from the Golden Slime, they look like a juvenile version of the Golden Slime in appearance, but they are not slimes at all in terms of speed. Of course, in all seriousness, they don't belong to the slime species in the first place, so even the names are slightly different.

Lin Chen was in danger, this golden slime's HP had only been knocked out by half, and his own HP was already less than a quarter left.

While dodging the boss's counterattack, you have to guard against the attack of the golden lime. Before the boss knew it, he had actually split into four golden limes, and the movement speed of the golden lime was even faster than that of the boss, which really gave Lin Chen a headache.

Could it be that walking by the river all year round is finally going to get your shoes wet this time?

Lin Chen threw out another torch and successfully hit the boss again, but he couldn't dodge it because of this, and was hit by a golden lime.

“-17”

His life gauge has been lost again, and he is at a very dangerous point, and he has no combat recovery potions in his backpack, and he has begun to consider whether to give up the strategy against this boss.

At this moment, his vision suddenly widened, and a small camp appeared in front of him.

"Ding!"

"System Prompt: Explore a new location [Abandoned Camp]."
