Yang Tian casually pulled out the shield on his back and walked slowly to meet the boss. "Well, I should at least be able to resist? Like until nightfall?"


    Hearing Yang Tian’s doubtful but confident tone, Xie Yao didn’t know how to react.


    On the one hand, she felt strange since let alone resisting the attacks of a level 15 Lord grade boss until nightfall; Xie Yao didn’t believe that a yer could resist the attacks of a Sun grade boss for a minute before being killed.


    After all, the average yer’s level was still too low to fight a level fifteen boss. Only a few special existences could make the incredible challenge of going up against a beast of a higher level and grade. Until now, Xie Yao had only seen Xie Feng and Gu Qianxue aplish such a feat and even then, the reason why Gu Qianxue could do so apart from her powerful ss skills, was mostly due to luck.


    Therefore, she found it hard to believe Yang Tian’s words no matter how much she tried to trust him.


    "Well, just watch." Yang Tian’s voice brought Xie Yao out of her thoughts.


    "Although my reflexes and reaction speed are inferior to your big brother’s and although my attack isn’t even worthy ofparison..." Yang Tian raised his silver shield to the height of his left shoulder at the same time as he leaned forward and firmly held a bronze sword in his right hand." But, if ites to defense.... I don’t think there is a yer in the entire Chinese battle zone who can surpass me yet!"


    Immediately after Yang Tian uttered those words, the Imperial Triton Soldier swung its spear in a straight line towards him.


    "Earth Armor!"


    At Yang Tian’s war cry, a pale yellow glow rose from the ground and covered his entire body from his feet to his head.


    <i>ng!</i>


    The tip of the spear struck Yang Tian’s shield and due to the monster’s superior strength, Yang Tian’s defensive positionpletely copsed.


    "FK me and my low STR!" Yang Tian cursed loudly as he took a step back.


    Seeing this, Xie Yao couldn’t help but sigh. In the end, it was how she thought things would be; it was impossible for him to hold on for so long. However, what happened next made Xie Yao’s eyes shine with disbelief.


    The Imperial Triton Soldier seized the opportunity when Yang Tian lost his bnce and stabbed forward with its spear again.


    -50


    A figure of only two digits slowly rose above Yang Tian’s head. Xie Yao’s eyes widened as she watched the red-colored figure slowly fading away.


    "Krr..." The Imperial Triton Soldier growled as it also stopped its movements for a moment as if it couldn’t believe what it was seeing.


    Yang Tian sneered and took the opportunity to attack the monster with his sword doing a normal sh.


    -40


    "..."


    The corner of Xie Yao’s mouth contracted several times as she watched the two pitiful damage fading away at the same time. At first, she was incredibly surprised by Yang Tian’s resistant defense; Xie Yao was even on the verge of apuding and praising him. However, all her surprise was suddenly drained away after seeing the physical attack damage Yang Tian caused.


    Too miserable! Too low! Even considering that the only magic attack Xie Yao could use was Magic Bullet, a spell that caused only 80% of the total damage, it was superior to Yang Tian. Yang Tian’s damage wasparable to that of level five or six yers, even if Xie Yao took into ount that Yang Tian’s level and grade was lower than that of Imperial Triton Soldier, his damage was simply too pitiful!


    As if to test her thoughts, Xie Yao couldn’t help but take the bone staff that Xie Feng had gifted her not long ago and cast a Magic Bullet in the direction of the boss.


    -282


    ...


    "Oh well." Seeing the situation, Yang Tian shrugged his shoulders seemingly unconcerned. "My forte is in defense after all. Nothing can be done about it."


    The Imperial Triton Soldier continued to stab Yang Tian’s body with its spear relentlessly and endlessly. The monster did not care about its pitiful damage, because it was a considerably low-grade monsterpared to other bosses, the beast’s intelligence was practically nil; therefore, the monster used all of its spear abilities to stab its enemy.


    -65


    -62


    -59


    -55


    -60


    Yang Tian simply stood there and let the Imperial Triton Soldier attack him. He watched as his health bar slowly dropped. Slowly but surely, the boss took approximately 700 health points in ten seconds.


    "Actually, I lied." Yang Tian said as he took out a big red potion from his inventory to recover the HP he lost, but he didn’t drink it and continued, "I don’t think I can resist until nightfall...Because even if I stand in this ce without moving for my entire life, this triton couldn’t defeat me."


    Twenty seconds after the Imperial Triton Soldier had started attacking Yang Tian, the health bar had dropped a little less than half. This surprised Xie Yao very much! The total HP Yang Tian had lost was already over 1500 points but still, his health bar was barely close to half.


    +2000!


    Yang Tian drank the big health potion and all his health was fully recovered in just a second.


    While Xie Yao gasped in surprise as she realized that Yang Tian really wasn’t lying with his deration, the Imperial Triton Soldier continued to attack steadily.


    Health potions had a ten second cooldown before they could be used, furthermore, if a yer used a small potion, then they could not use a medium or big potion of the same type until the ten second cooldown was over. In short, the maximum amount of health a yer could recover was two thousand points each ten seconds. Of course, there were special potions or items that had no cooldown and could be used inbination with other potions, just like those used by Xie Feng when he faced the Guardian of Hell in the Beginner’s Vige; however, such items were too precious and were not something that could be purchased casually just because one had the necessary gold.


    In the initial stages of the game, recovering two thousand health points every ten seconds might seem like a lot considering that practically no yer possessed such a high amount of HP. However, when the average level of yers hovers around 15 and 20, even the big red potions would no longer be as useful as they were at the current stage.


    "My total HP is 3350 and my skill Earth Armor absorbs 90% of the damage of everyone who attacks me as long as the level difference between me and my enemy is no more than 2 levels." Yang Tian exined as he took out another big red potion to recover his health. "Although the big potions are expensive considering that the gold we can obtain is currently limited and probably very few people can afford to spend them like this, I have approximately 10 slots of my inventories full."


    Ten slots! Considering that potions could be stacked two hundred at a time per slot, Yang Tian had a total of two thousand big red potions in his inventory!


    Based on Yang Tian consuming a potion every twenty seconds, he could stand there without moving for almost twelve hours without fear of being killed! Of course, this was all based on his Earth Armor skill being able to resist for such a long time, which Xie Yao did not believe was possible.


    Moreover, as Yang Tian exined; currently, the number of people who could use big red potions considering how expensive they were, could be counted on the fingers of both hands.


    "How long until your brother rushes here?" while Xie Yao was deep in thought, Yang Tian interrupted her.


    "Ah, yes." Xie Yao snapped out of her daze and replied. "Big brother Xie Feng just killed thest boss 3 Suns. He should be here soon."


    "That’s good." Yang Tian nodded and let out an inaudible sigh of relief.


    Although his defense was terrifying, his Earth Armor skill could only resist there for twenty minutes before going into cooldown. Yang Tian possessed a more powerful defensive skill, but he did not want to use it yet as it would probably be needed inter stages. Moreover, that skill was problematic as it was directly linked to his Esper power in the real world, so the mental consumption was massive.


    Therefore, unless there was really no other option, Yang Tian was unwilling to use it.


    Soon, Xie Feng appeared in sight and ran towards the Imperial Triton Soldier at full speed.


    Seeing that ck and white mask, crimson spear and dark cloak that only belonged to the man she loved, Xie Yao’s eyes brightened like night stars and a smile appeared on her face.


    "Well, it’s finally over." Yang Tian finally rxed his nerves. Even he himself did not realize how confident he was in Xie Feng’s power attack, which was surprising considering Yang Tian’s independent personality.


    The Imperial Triton Soldier noticed the intruder approaching as well, so with a grunt it turned around and swung its spear.


    Xie Feng had a chilling look under his mask. If it wasn’t for Yang Tian and his absurd ability to resist, Xie Yao would probably have been killed by this beast. Xie Feng had to restrain himself from using Wind Cmity and destroying the Imperial Triton Soldierpletely. After all, Wind Cmity was a powerful skill that could only be used once a day.


    Yet, because of what he himself considered a mistake on his part, the Imperial Triton Soldier put the life of the most important person to him in danger, and Xie Feng could not tolerate such a thought.
