Chapter 29: Success or failure?
Carrying the purchased props, Xu Youming returned along the original route. After killing two bamboo green snakes that blocked his way, he finally saw the boss lurking there.
If Xu Youming hadn't remembered this location, he might not have been able to find the Boss at a glance, because the color of its body was too similar to the surrounding bamboo poles.
Controlling the distance to the limit, Xu Youming sprinkled realgar powder on the cockroach arrow, hoping that this thing would not let him down.
The bow was bent like a full moon, and the green-glowing cockatoo arrow suddenly flew away, passed through the bamboo forest, and nailed the Boss's head.

slow
After the Cocktail Arrow hits the Boss, it not only causes damage, but also gives the Boss a negative state, slowness.
The Boss, who was originally moving very fast, seemed to be half a beat slow in reaction at this moment. He turned his head to look at Xu Youming who was attacking him, then started crawling towards him with his tongue spitting out.
Whoosh——
The second arrow followed closely, and Xu Youming also began to retreat. Although the Boss's speed was affected by the realgar powder, he was still faster than Xu Youming.
The only lucky thing is that there are no other monsters in the Boss's territory, otherwise he would be in great trouble if attacked from both sides.
After shooting three arrows in succession, Xu Youming began to swallow a mouthful of Bamboo Leaf Green, and the consumed mana began to recover instantly.
At the same time, 2 points are restored per second, which is exactly the same as Xu Youming's consumption. Within the current attribute restrictions, Xu Youming can shoot an arrow at most once every 2 seconds.
The limiting effect of Realgar only lasts for 5 seconds on the Boss, so Xu Youming must continue to hit the Boss in order to keep this delay going.
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
-82
-85
-86
…
Arrows flew through the bamboo forest and all hit the Boss's head without exception. Xu Youming tried his best to increase his output.
In the end, due to the speed difference, Xu Youming was caught up by the Boss. At this time, Xu Youming had finished his first pot of Bamboo Leaf Green Tea.
Chi——
-158
The Boss jumped up and attacked Xu Youming's waist, but did not trigger the poison.
Seeing this scene, Xu Youming did not dare to be careless. He took a sip of realgar wine, and his blood volume increased rapidly.
At the same time, start retreating during the gaps between the Boss' attacks and try to avoid being attacked.
When the Boss attacked again, Xu Youming had already retreated several meters, during which time he shot two more arrows. In the end, he started to fight the Boss in exchange for injuries.
Fortunately, realgar wine and hemostatic grass do not conflict with each other. After Xu Youming drank the realgar wine, he also ate a piece of hemostatic grass, and his blood volume could be restored by 3 points per second.
On average, the Boss could attack him once every 15 seconds, and he would lose about 400 HP per minute. At this rate, Xu Youming could only hold on for two minutes.
The calculation result was generated in Xu Youming's mind in an instant. This was an instinctive reaction formed after years of calculating the trajectory of arrows.
No, this approach has no hope of success.
The boss still has more than 20,000 health points, and he must hold on for another 10 minutes, otherwise he will die.
run!
This is the only plan that works.
Of course, it’s not about just running away, but about staying as far away from the Boss as possible.
At this point, you can no longer attack the Boss. You just need to run as far as you can before the Boss's slowness disappears.
Attacking once every 5 seconds can increase Xu Youming's speed a lot, at least faster than the slowed-down Boss.
Of course, Xu Youming did not control the distance to the limit, because doing so would inevitably waste more time.
For him, time is as important as life. Once the realgar powder is used up, his situation will become even more difficult.
He can only choose a more compromising distance to minimize the risk.
18 meters is the distance with the highest success rate after his calculations.
After two minutes, Xu Youming successfully created 18 meters between himself and the Boss, and then the continuous attacks began again.
Arrow after arrow flew, and the Boss got closer and closer. Finally, when the Boss's health was reduced to about 3,000, it came in front of Xu Youming again.
After being warned, Xu Youming did not leave immediately, but continued to exchange blood with the Boss.
He had limited time, so he could only use his health points to delay time as much as possible. Only when his health points were only about 100 points did Xu Youming start running again.
It's not that he is arrogant, but he has no other choice. Every second is precious to him.
After opening a distance of 18 meters, Xu Youming turned around and shot an arrow, repeating the previous operation. His health was almost restored, and when the Boss came to him, his health should be full.
With repeated attacks , the Boss's health continued to decrease. When he got close to Xu Youming again, his health was only about 8,000.
But this was also the most dangerous moment for Xu Youming. His realgar powder was only enough to last for 15 minutes. 11 minutes had passed and he had 4 minutes left. It was not certain whether he could defeat the Boss.
There was no other way, Xu Youming could only try his best. When his blood volume was about to run out, Xu Youming turned around and ran away.
This time, he chose to stop when he was 12 meters away, as time did not allow him to move 18 meters away.
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The arrow flew across the sky and landed on the Boss. Finally, 15 minutes were up and the Boss arrived in front of Xu Youming.
At this time, the slowing effect on the Boss completely disappeared, and all of Xu Youming's props were also used up, but the Boss's health was still a little over 4,000.
By repaying blood with blood, I can only reduce Boss 4000's blood volume at most. Victory or defeat cannot be calculated at this point.
Chi——
The green figure pounced, Xu Youming felt a pain in his waist, and his health dropped by 150 points . At the same time, the arrow in his hand was released, causing 82 points of damage to the Boss.
While attacking, he took two steps back.
Immediately afterwards, the Boss's figure swung quickly, chasing closely behind Xu Youming, and a new attack was ready to be launched.
Snap——
-165!
Xu Youming shot the second arrow while jumping. This arrow caused a rare critical hit, giving Xu Youming a glimmer of hope.
However, the next attack from the Boss directly brought Xu Youming into the abyss, and streaks of toxic damage floated up from above Xu Youming's head.
When he was ready to remove the poison, he found that the snake gall in the package had been used up.
Looking at the Boss with less than 1000 HP left, Xu Youming couldn't help but sigh at the cruel fate.
After all the planning, I was ultimately defeated by luck. If I hadn't been poisoned this time, I would have at least had room for maneuver.
This time, it's all over.
