Crotch Lord, beneath your feet!

Just when everyone was wondering where the BOSS went, Wang Yu suddenly shouted.

Get out of the way!
When Crotch Lord heard Wang Yu’s warning, he swung his shield to the side as he crashed onto Peak Of Perfection’s body.
Peak Of Perfection was a small-sized man so it was impossible for him to withstand Crotch Lord’s blow. Therefore, he was instantly sent flying. The moment Peak Of Perfection was pushed aside, a clover appeared beneath Peak Of Perfection’s feet. Shortly after, Clover Reaper raised his dagger and emerged from the ground.

Fck you… Why did you crash into me…

Peak Of Perfection was sent flying out of nowhere and just when he was about to scold Crotch Lord, he saw Clover Reaper emerging from the ground. At the sight of this, Peak Of Perfection broke out in cold sweat.
Fck! This BOSS was way too vicious! If he wasn’t pushed to the side by Crotch Lord, Peak Of Perfection would have died from that one stab…
There were two weaknesses at a man’s crotch. Regardless of which part was struck, the pain would be unbearable.
When Clover Reaper missed his stab, he turned his arm and jumped towards Peak Of Perfection, who wasn’t very far away from him.

Fck!
Crotch Lord raised his shield to use [Hinder] as well as [Taunt] towards Clover Reaper.
The effect of [Taunt] was forceful so Clover Reaper’s body was forced to turn in another direction. The dagger was struck ferociously on Crotch Lord’s shield.

Dang…

Following the crashing sound of metals, Crotch Lord’s [Hinder] points were emptied and the durability of the shield was halved too… Crotch Lord was on the verge of tears as his shield was about to become a consumable.
A shield was one of the hardest weapons to obtain. The shields on the market were either too lousy or too expensive. When Crotch Lord obtained his god-grade shield, he was naturally not going to spend more money to buy good shields. He could still use rubbish shields to block against small monsters. However, fighting a BOSS with that was equivalent to fighting a BOSS with consumables.
Crotch Lord’s reaction was rather fast. At the moment the shield on his right hand was struck by Clover Reaper, he hurriedly switched his master hand to his left hand. Following which, he used his left hand to grab Clover Reaper.
[Forceful Seizing] was a Guardian’s level 40 secondary grappling skill. The judgement was extremely incredible as the Clover Reaper was pulled to the front of Crotch Lord.
Fearless shouted when he saw this,
He is caught! Hurry up and attack him!

Boson and Frost Blade, who weren’t far away, were already on their way towards the back of Clover Reaper even before Fearless shouted.
At this moment, Clover Reaper, who was pulled to the front of Crotch Lord, took out a green globe and pressed it on Crotch Lord’s face.

Bang!

Green pollen exploded together with the sound and Crotch Lord was covered in green.
Boson and Frost Blade, who rushed over to help, were also covered in the pollen… When the pollen scattered, Clover Reaper was already gone. On the other hand, Crotch Lord and the two others were poisoned as their healths were constantly decreasing.
Spring Halo waved his staff as he threw out his [Dispersion Technique] to remove the poison on Crotch Lord and co. Fearless, on the other hand, started executing his crowd healing technique to bring back the health of the three of them.
While everyone’s cooperated well, it was evident that they were shocked. This was because they started to realise how the BOSS disappeared.

Did the BOSS just use [Earth Elemental Technique]?
a terrified Peak Of Perfection asked.
Fearless nodded as he answered,
It seems like it. I cannot believe a mere Gold-grade BOSS would have such a troublesome skill!

In <<REBIRTH>>, the most terrifying skills were naturally the legendary ultimate moves of each job class. Those that could destroy heaven and earth or those with frightening damage output. However, the [Earth Elemental Technique] could claim the title of being the most troublesome skill in the game.
Everyone knew that Assassins were the most disgusting because they knew how to use [Stealth]. However, there were several anti-stealth techniques in the current stages of the game. From the low-cost limestone powder to the high-cost True Eye, all these were tools which could make an Assassin’s [Stealth] useless.
After an Assassin went into [Stealth] mode, even though the figure was concealed, the body was still there. Once the Assassin was struck, he would reappear and could die from the attacks. However, for the same skill which allowed one to go invisible, the [Earth Elemental Technique] was much more powerful. This was because [Earth Elemental Technique] allowed the user to walk underground.
In the game, the ground beneath a player’s foot was definitely a great hiding spot. Even if an enemy used their job class’ ultimate move, hitting the ground would simply be a waste of MP, let alone normal attacks. Because of this, the [Earth Elemental Technique] was considered a technique which gave the user absolute protection. Think about it. How scary would it be if an enemy, in an absolutely safe spot, could still pop out every now and then to attack others?
Peak Of Perfection was just like Fearless and Spring Halo in the sense that all three of them participated in the beta testing. Those who participated in the beta testing of the game would have a far deeper impression of [Earth Elemental Technique] as compared to others.
To be honest, Wang Yu was not the only one who managed to take on 1000 enemies by himself. Back in the beta testing of the game where everyone was around level 20, there was an Assassin called Earth in the European server. Back then, Earth took on an enemy guild of over a thousand members all by himself. The guild of a thousand members was so frightened that they dared not leave their guild. Earth was then addressed as a legend in the European server.
And that Earth was an Assassin who knew how to use [Earth Elemental Technique].
Back then, the footage of how Earth took on the enemy guild all by himself using the [Earth Elemental Technique] was displayed all across Europe, America, Asia and the national servers. Even Peak Of Perfection, who was never too concerned about gossips, heard of how impressive the [Earth Elemental Technique] was.
Because of this, [Earth Elemental Technique] surpassed [Call of the Abyss] as the most disgusting skill in the beta testing.
At this moment, how could anyone not panic when they realised that the BOSS in front of them knew how to use this despicable skill? One must know that regardless of how strong Earth was, he was still just a player. His attacks were definitely much weaker than a BOSS.
Peak Of Perfection panicked as he cried out,
Crotch Lord, put your shield on the ground for me to stand on. You guys must make sure I am safe. Otherwise, we will not be able to complete the quest.

Just when Crotch Lord was about to throw his shield onto the ground, Fearless shook his head and said,
We don’t even know where the enemy is so how can we draw a circle on the ground to put our most important figure there? Old Bull, go protect Boss Peak and let us handle this reaper guy.

A level 40 shield was as big as a door. Standing on the shield was indeed a good way to protect himself from the [Earth Elemental Technique]. Fearless was pretty impressed that Peak Of Perfection could think of this so quickly.
However, this was way too passive. By doing this, they would be severely restricting Peak Of Perfection’s range of movement. Once Clover Reaper confirmed that he needed to kill Peak Of Perfection, Peak Of Perfection’s position would be way too obvious.

En!
Wang Yu hurried over to Peak Of Perfection’s side.
As Peak Of Perfection saw that Wang Yu was coming over, he asked Fearless with an unpleasant tone,
Why isn’t a tank coming to protect me? What use can a Pugilist be?

Since it was for protection, a tank would be more suitable for this task. In Peak Of Perfection’s mind, a Pugilist was not any better than a low health Priest.
Fearless rolled his eyes at Peak Of Perfection before saying,
You don’t know sht!
