Frost Sion

The final boss of the Frost Forest is the Goblin Lord Frost Sion. From the fact that it has a name, we can tell that this dungeon boss is taken more seriously than the hidden boss in the newbie village.

Sion's physique doesn't seem much different from an ordinary goblin, but his fierce face looks more cunning and scheming, at least he doesn't have a strikingly funny blue nose like the ordinary goblins. That's because Frost Sion's entire skin is this azure blue, and if he turns his back without showing his face, he could even pass for a cute pet.

But all players know he's not cute at all. The ice blade in Frost Sion's right hand is as tall as his short stature. When swung, it brings gusts of cold wind, and the attack range is much farther than what players can see. Due to his special attack methods, the main tank (MT) who is the primary target of his aggression often gets controlled here. Therefore, in the strategy for the Frost Forest, it is recommended that the team includes two MTs, which significantly reduces the pressure when facing both the first boss, the Goblin Patrol, and Frost Sion.

As for Ye Kai, he's not the type to follow strategies like ordinary players. Seeing that his four teammates had arrived, he simply said "Let's go" and charged forward with Jun Mo Xiao leading the spear. This was also because the quality of this team was really high. If it were Tian Qi and his group, more instructions would have been necessary, and they would have needed more attention in actual combat, unlike Lan He and his team who were more reliable.

Lan He and his team didn't talk much and just followed into the fray. Jun Mo Xiao charged ahead, immediately attracting Frost Sion's attention. This guy's movement speed was twice as fast as an ordinary goblin's, his short legs moving like wheels, and in an instant, he had already rushed to Jun Mo Xiao.

The next second, Frost Sion was already tossed into the air.

So strong!

Lan He and his team silently watched and praised. Although it was just one hit, given Frost Sion's speed and agility, it wasn't easy to land a hit on him. Even engaging the boss was a challenge. Take Lan He's MT, Deng Hua Ye, for example, during their last trip to the Frost Forest, he only managed to hit the boss on the third attack, and then a small combo established the aggro. That was already considered a great achievement. For average teams, it's common for the MT to get disabled without establishing good aggro, and often the aggro ends up on the healer who is healing the MT out of desperation.

Jun Mo Xiao tossed Frost Sion into the air, followed by a series of skills to perform a mid-air combo. But Frost Sion, being a named boss, had his ways to deal with potentially endless air combos. Suddenly, a blue light flashed in mid-air, and he disappeared. Lan He and his team weren't surprised; Frost Sion had a skill similar to instant teleportation.

While searching for where he had teleported to, the four heard a "puff" sound of being stabbed, and when they looked over, they saw Jun Mo Xiao's war spear poking at Frost Sion...

Lan He and his team were stunned, then looked back at the original spot, where there was still a Jun Mo Xiao.

Shadow clone, huh... Of course, they could tell. They had seen such skills many times, nothing surprising. What amazed them was that Jun Mo Xiao could immediately follow Frost Sion's teleportation. They knew Frost Sion would show some signs before teleporting, similar to a mage casting a spell, from the position indicated by his gestures during the chant, one could largely guess where the spell would be cast. But after all, it was an instant cast spell, the signs were just for a brief moment, yet Jun Mo Xiao could still clearly capture the opponent's teleportation location. Wasn't this something only theoretically possible?

Of course, Frost Sion's instant teleportation had a cooldown. After using it once and failing, he was thoroughly beaten by Jun Mo Xiao, completely at a disadvantage. Probably, as a boss, he had never been so embarrassed before. He tried to use his blade, cast spells, but was always preempted by the opponent.

"Everyone, go." Lan He realized they seemed to be watching a solo duel video again and quickly called everyone to charge together.

The battle with Frost Sion was a fight on the edge of aggro. For expert teams like Lan He's, which only had one MT, it was crucial to finely judge the aggro between the MT and Frost Sion to avoid over-aggro (OT). But now, under Jun Mo Xiao's powerful damage output, which didn't miss a beat against Frost Sion, the four had no such worries. Even if Frost Sion's main aggro wasn't on them, they could still occasionally miss their hits. Frost Sion's movement was too fast, and he wasn't the kind of dumb boss who would just stand there and take hits from the MT after aggro was established.

Teleportation! Again! Lan He and his team cursed, Frost Sion would use his instant teleportation as soon as its cooldown was over, but today he met his match. Jun Mo Xiao's use of shadow clones to perform instant teleportation was no slower than his. In the end, only Lan He and his three teammates were left frustratedly hitting their keyboards, turning around to chase back and forth. This scene had been repeated many times.

"Be careful, he's about to enter the red blood state," Ye Kai suddenly said in a deep voice.

"Okay." The four responded. The seriousness of the red blood state was something they had all noticed. When Frost Sion was in the red blood state, his spellcasting would be in an unstoppable state, so normal attacks couldn't interrupt it, and his casting speed was even faster. He had a spell that could instantly summon several ice tornadoes, which was extremely lethal to the players surrounding him.

"Retreat!" Lan He suddenly saw a fierce light in Frost Sion's eyes, his big ice blade swung out a few blade flowers, and the ice tornado was about to be summoned. He quickly shouted and was the first to retreat from Frost Sion's side. The other three, not being melee attackers, didn't need to be so nervous, but they also focused and adjusted themselves. The ice tornado had no specific aggro target; once summoned, it would scatter and spin randomly.

But then they heard a loud bang, the ice tornado didn't come out, and Frost Sion was slammed to the ground.

A back throw, Jun Mo Xiao used a back throw, a skill that could break through the unstoppable state.

"Why run, didn't you learn Rending Slash?" Ye Kai asked in surprise.

Lan He knew the question was directed at him. Rending Slash was a skill of the Magic Swordsman, which could also break through the unstoppable state. Since it was a skill below level 20, Lan He, who had changed his class to Swordsman, could also learn it, and generally, Swordsmen would learn at least one level of it, not for damage, but specifically to break through the unstoppable state.

Skills that could break through the unstoppable state could indeed interrupt spells cast in that state, but the problem was, this was Frost Sion! The Frost Sion that often caused the MT to aggro onto the healer! Who would dare to bet the whole team on whether their skill could accurately hit?

Lan He actually wasn't so uncertain, but because there was a possibility that a single mistake could ruin the whole situation, he chose to be cautious, and as a result, he was called out. Lan He felt a bit embarrassed, so he shamelessly answered, "Hmm, I didn't learn it."

Boos were heard, but the three eventually understood Lan He's feelings and didn't boo for too long.

"You should learn it, breaking through the unstoppable state is very useful," Ye Kai said.

"I know... I didn't have enough skill points, so I didn't learn it for the time being. I'll go and learn one level later," Lan He said, his face flushing, feeling like he was being taught basic knowledge...
