Chapter 99: Instance Boss Battle (Part )
Ke Mingye adjusted the electromagnetic pulse glove on his right hand, and a clicking sound was heard as his fingers intertwined.
He slowly raised his eyes and stared at the two-meter-five-tall figure standing at the bow.
The captain was wearing a dark red pirate robe with a worn leather coat underneath. In his left hand was a silver-white long knife, and in his right hand was a black metal musket.
In addition, he was wearing a red and black pirate pointed hat on his head. Only his right eye was open under the brim of the hat. A cold blue flame was burning in the empty eye socket, and under the thick beard was a grinning mouth.
[Boss Name: Ghost Pirate Captain——Glivar Chris]
In the sun, the pirate captain's shoulder armor gleamed with the unique color of steel. A rainbow parrot standing on his shoulder whispered, "Glivar, I will take you back to that sea."
Ke Mingye looked at Captain Gliwa, then turned back to look at the magical girl Hongyue who was entangled by twelve pirates behind her.
He thought for a moment whether he should go back to help, but Captain Grivar had already pointed his musket at him and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
Ke Mingye reacted quickly and squatted down. The heat wave passed over his head, and the gunpowder hit the barrel behind him. The entire barrel exploded, and the aftermath of the violent current pushed Ke Mingye four or five meters away.
Seeing Captain Gliwa rushing towards him with a silver-white sword in his hand, he had no choice but to shoot a spider silk towards the mast and flew up along the silk.
Captain Gliwa was still shooting at his back with his musket. Ke Mingye knew that he couldn't fall from the air, otherwise he would be instantly beaten into a hornet's nest, so he shot spider silk at the crossbeam of the mast.
He held the spider silk and circled around the mast, climbing up diagonally. Finally, he stepped on the surface of the mast with both feet, used the force to jump up, and came to the crow's nest used to overlook the sea.
Ke Mingye hid in a blind spot of the crow's nest, leaning against the mast and the floor of the crow's nest to block the fire from the muskets. The raging flames kept brushing against his cheeks, causing blood to flow from his ears.
"The intellectuals said that the focus of this copy is the parrot."
Ke Mingye thought about it, lowered his eyes, and observed the three pirate minions he had just knocked down.
It can be clearly seen that their bodies are slowly regenerating and will soon regain their combat effectiveness.
"It seems that even if we cause damage to the captain, he will most likely regenerate slowly like the crew members, so it will be difficult to really kill him."
"There's no need to defeat the boss, just grab the parrot from his shoulder. It should be the parrot that provides them with the power to move."
Ke Mingye turned his head and jumped down from the crow's nest while Captain Gliwa was still changing ammunition. He slid down by holding on to the mast, then rolled to the deck.
He raised his head sharply, lowered his right hand, and shot a spider web at Captain Glivar's shoulder, trying to catch the rainbow parrot.
But the spider web was cut off by the silver-white sword in an instant and fell weakly to the ground.
After Captain Gliwa loaded the ammunition, he lowered his face again and pulled the trigger continuously at Ke Mingye's body.
Ke Mingye rolled to the right to avoid the gunshot. The splattered gunpowder brushed past him and the burning waves in the air eroded his skin, leaving a dazzling burn mark on his neck.
He took a deep breath and used the spider web shooter to jump back and forth on the pirate ship, sometimes leaping onto the sails, sometimes hugging the mast, and sometimes standing on the top of the forecastle.
During this time, he kept trying to shoot spider webs at the parrot on the captain's shoulder, but each time he failed. Captain Gliwa protected the parrot with a long knife and cut off every oncoming spider web.
At this moment, Captain Gliwa approached a wine barrel while suppressing his figure with firepower, threw the barrel hard towards Ke Mingye's next landing point, and then pulled the trigger at the barrel.
Ke Mingye reacted and leaped back while crossing his arms over his chest, but he was still blown back several meters by the shock wave caused by the exploding wine barrel, and his feet left a dark groove on the ground.
The captain took advantage of the situation and rushed over, leaning forward slightly to gain leverage, and slashed towards Ke Mingye with his silver-white machete.
Ke Mingye was unable to dodge, so he had to lift up the metal glove on his right hand and release the glove's second skill, causing the surface of the glove to be covered with layers of violent electric currents.
Then he suddenly stretched out his five fingers forward and firmly caught the captain's sword.
The next moment, the metal palm collided with the silver-white blade, and a violent arc of electricity spread out by friction, transmitting from the blade to the captain's entire body, paralyzing him and making him unable to move for a full two seconds.
But Ke Mingye was also blown dozens of meters away by the huge force from the knife and crashed into the thick mast. His health points in the upper right corner of his vision dropped sharply.
Then the mast suddenly broke, bringing down the sails and the crow's nest, almost burying him.
"It's so fucking difficult..."
Ke Mingye spat out a mouthful of blood, lowered his wrist to the right, shot a spider silk towards the railing, and pulled it hard, bringing his body out of the position where the mast fell down.
"Bang!!!!"
The mast had smashed a long groove on the deck, and the cracks spread outward from the groove, spreading to the floor within a radius of ten meters.
Ke Mingye was about to get up from the ground, but at this moment, the parrot on the captain's shoulder suddenly sang loudly.
"The scarecrow had no eyes. The child gave it a pair of eyes, but it greedily took away everything from the child."
The strange nursery rhyme spread on the deck. Ke Mingye realized something was wrong and covered his ears with his hands, but it was too late.
The devilish sound filled Ke Mingye's ears and instantly controlled him.
He couldn't move, and goose bumps appeared all over his body. Ke Mingye could only sit by the railing, staring blankly at Captain Gliwa walking towards him step by step.
At that moment, Ke Mingye clearly saw the captain slashing his head with the silver-white sword, and even the pain of his skull being split had been transmitted to his brain.
But the next second, when he opened his eyes, he saw that his head was intact, and there was a mosaic made up of dense data covering his head.
The captain's sword chopped on the mosaic barrier, but it didn't move at all.
Then, the captain's body suddenly changed. He held his head and roared, and every corner of his body twitched wildly like a mosaic.
[Fault Judgment (C-level skill): After it is activated, the first damage received by any target within 3 seconds will be regarded as a fault, which will be repaired and the character who caused the damage will fall into a short state of fainting. ]
"I saved him, now it's up to you guys." Cai Bing said calmly.
"Your skill is quite useful." Fanquan commented.
While the two were talking, Cai Bing made the giant sword fly above the ghost ship, and at the same time made Fan Quan and Qing Meng fall off the sword, then controlled the sword to crash directly into the captain who was in a coma.
The next moment, the blade of the giant sword pierced deeply into Captain Gliva's chest, and blood gushed out.
The captain's body was pressed under the deck, and the surrounding floors cracked one after another. He was like Jesus nailed to the cross. No matter how much he screamed, he could not break free.
【Wonderful Hit!!! (A wonderful hit!!!)】
[Boss Ghost Pirate Captain's HP: 100% → 73.5%]
Qing Meng pointed the Thompson submachine gun at the captain who was pinned to the ground and pulled the trigger frantically.
"He's so fragile, can't we just deal with him a little bit of damage?" Cai Bing turned his head and asked Fan Quan.
"No, it will regenerate infinitely until the parrot dies." said Anti-Dog.
At this moment, on the captain's shoulder, the parrot flapped its wings and rose up.
Just as it was about to fly out of the ghost ship, Ke Mingye held his broken ribs, lowered his right hand and shot a spider web at the parrot, accurately sticking to its right wing.
"Got it!"
Ke Mingye raised his eyebrows, growled, and pulled the parrot into his hands, intending to crush it with his metal gloves.
But just as the parrot was being pulled towards Ke Mingye by the spider silk, it suddenly revealed its true form. Its body was torn apart, and it gradually transformed into a bald bird-like beastman, pouncing towards Ke Mingye with its fangs and claws bared.
"Mist grass?"
Ke Mingye was stunned for half a second, wondering what the hell he had just done.
His pupils, which had shrunk to the size of wheat seedlings, were now reflecting the blade-like claws, which were getting closer and closer...
The claws were about to touch his eyes, digging out his skin and eyeballs.
But at this moment, Fanquan said: "Eternal Return." [Eternal Return: Make a specific target around return to the position it was at 1 second ago.]
As soon as he finished speaking, the second paper figure on Fan Quan's shoulder turned into ashes.
At the same time, the bird-shaped beastman returned to the position it was in a second ago. Not only that, a huge vertical pupil suddenly blocked its forward path.
It was a gorgeous eye, full of brilliance, with a pink and purple halo radiating outwards.
"Eye of Medusa", Fanquan once used this trick in the game with Ke Xiaomo. If it weren't for this trick, he would have been caught by Ke Xiaomo.
Enemies that meet the gaze of the Eye of Medusa will be petrified in place for 2.5 seconds.
At this moment, the bird-shaped orc looked into Medusa's eyes, and its body was instantly covered with a layer of stone. Its petrified claws were very close to Ke Mingye's eyes and stopped in mid-air.
"Your automatic pickup is really not a problem." Fanquan said, "Don't pull everything on your face."
"That makes sense. I won't do it randomly next time..."
As Ke Mingye spoke, he loosened the broken spider silk and silently took two steps back, putting some distance between himself and the bird-shaped beastman.
At the same time, Qing Meng changed her target, shifting her firepower suppression target away from Captain Gliwa and aiming at the petrified bird-like beastman.
The muzzle of the gun was spewing flames madly.
The body of the bird-shaped orc was like a stone tablet, constantly breaking under the ravages of bullets, and its chest, arms, and claws all fell to the ground like broken corpses.
"This thing is more fragile than it looks," Anti-Dog said.
On the other side, the magical girl Hongyue climbed up from the ground and rushed over to meet up with the others, but was grabbed by the ankle by Captain Griwa who suddenly woke up.
At the same time, Captain Gliwa suddenly picked up the machete with his other hand and chopped at Hongyue's waist.
But Hong Yue reacted quickly and used her sickle to counter him. The violent force caused the deck under her feet to break continuously, and her body was sunk into the deck.
"Someone come and save him, Mr. Paranoid is going to die!"
Magical girl Hongyue's cheeks flushed red as she growled at the four people with all her might.
Ke Mingye held his aching chest, unable to move.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the magical girl Hongyue who was in a stalemate with Captain Gliwa, but they were powerless to do anything.
The anti-dog and ice-cutting skills were on cooldown; Qingmeng was busy using the firepower of a Thompson submachine gun to suppress the bird-shaped orcs that had revived from the petrified state, and had no time to spare.
Ke Mingye took a deep breath and had no choice but to use a quasi-A-level item in his bag:
——"Permanent Magical Girl Transformation Card".
Then, his body was wrapped in cocoon light.
With a simple shrug, the cocoon of light shattered. Then a girl with blonde hair, blue eyes, a Santa Claus hat, a red cape on her shoulders, and a red dress appeared on the deck.
"No, man."
Cai Bing was stunned for half a second, and the lollipop in his mouth lifted up.
"So you are also..."
Fan Quan also held his glasses and stared blankly for a second, mumbling to himself.
The magic girl Little Red Riding Hood collapsed to the ground, waving her magic wand with great effort. In an instant, snowflakes condensed in the air, wrapping around the pirate captain's arm.
The snowflakes greatly buffered his force, and the silver-white machete suddenly lost the capital to collide with the sickle and was instantly defeated.
"You're the boss, right? I'm hungry, so I'll use your parrot as my meal tonight."
The magical girl Hongyue demonstrated her high quality with words. She looked down at the captain condescendingly, then slashed down with the sickle, cleanly cutting off Captain Gliwa's left hand.
With her right foot freed, she ignored the roar of Captain Gliwa and rushed over with her sickle in hand, the end of the sickle leaving a deep groove in the floor.
She attacked from both sides, holding her sickle and slashing at the bird-shaped orc that was suppressed by Qingmeng's gunfire.
The magical girl Little Red Riding Hood covered the wound on her abdomen, turned a blind eye, and continued to wave the crimson magic wand. Then a layer of ice and snow covered the body of the bird-shaped beastman who was trying to break free.
Immediately afterwards, the blood-red sickle and the submachine gun bullets were like two evil spirits chasing each other, as if competing for which side had greater destructive power, and they were almost frantically destroying the body of the bird-shaped orc.
At this moment, the fifteen pirates who had died in the rear returned from hell, led by Captain Gliva. They picked up their machetes, shouted slogans, and rushed towards the five players at the stern.
But at the moment when the pirates were about to approach, the bird-shaped beastman completely lost his movement under the attack of paranoia and clear dreams, turned back into the parrot with colorful feathers, and fell to the ground weakly.
The rainbow-colored bird feathers were blown by the wind, passing over the broken masts, the tattered sails, and falling into the navy blue sky.
The parrot died, and the ghost pirates supported by its power began to collapse.
The fifteen pirates were the first to be wiped out, followed by Captain Gliva.
He hunched forward, gradually knelt on the ground, stretched out his arms continuously, crawled forward step by step, and finally picked up the parrot with both hands.
With his eyes lowered and a smile on his face, he gradually faded away into a glow of firefly-like light.

Magical girl Hongyue looked at the copy settlement panel, raised the corner of her mouth, and said contemptuously: "See, this is the strength of the paranoid master, do you know what MV is..."
She was halfway through her words when she suddenly caught a glimpse of the magical girl Little Red Riding Hood not far away. She turned her head to look at her and froze in place.
Little Red Riding Hood raised her eyes and met her gaze.
In silence, the two magical girls looked at each other.
The magical girl Hongyue stared at her for two seconds with an expressionless face. She slowly turned her head and looked around, counting the players on the boat one by one with her raised index finger.
Then she stayed still for a second, looked at the magical girl Little Red Riding Hood again, and pointed her index finger at the tip of her nose.
"Spider-Man?"
I updated 8,000 words today! I guess it’s not too much to ask for a monthly pass.
