Game Over Not Over for Me novel Chapter 69

**Chapter 69: Blood-Eyed Dragon Turtle**

Once Finley had departed, Alden wasted no time and returned to the task at hand: hunting down monsters. His focus was razor-sharp, his mind set on the Blood-Eyed Dragon Turtle that lurked in the depths of Blackwater Lake.

He had already felled twelve Bloodback Mystic Turtles, and the thrill of the hunt coursed through his veins. Just six more, and the formidable creature would emerge from its watery lair.

As he continued his relentless pursuit, the only thing standing between him and his goal was the turtles’ respawn rate.

Time seemed to slip through his fingers like sand, and before he knew it, an hour had passed.

Suddenly, a sharp chime echoed in his ears, pulling him from his concentration.

“Ding. Due to your mass slaying of Bloodback Mystic Turtles, the Blood-Eyed Dragon Turtle in Blackwater Lake has awakened. Please evacuate immediately.”

Evacuate?

Not a chance in hell.

The Blood-Eyed Dragon Turtle was precisely why he had come here, and he would not back down now.

Ahead of him, the surface of the dark water began to ripple ominously.

Then, breaking through the surface, a colossal shell rose, easily the size of a basketball court.

**Blood-Eyed Dragon Turtle (Bronze): 45**
**HP: 6,850,000/6,850,000**
**Attack: 17,590**
**Skills: Water Cannon Barrage, Healing Body, Dragon Tsunami Roar, Ninepillar Smash, Blackwater Whirlpool, Bloodthirst Dragon Armor, Aquarrow Formation, Bloodeye Poisonmist, ultimate body, rage mode.**

Alden’s eyebrows shot up in disbelief.

Nearly seven million HP and an attack power exceeding 17,000? And this didn’t even account for its magical capabilities.

As a magic-type monster, its magical prowess was likely far superior to its physical attack power.

Yet, despite the overwhelming odds, Alden felt no fear creeping into his heart. Without the Goddess of Life’s Tears equipped, his own HP stood at a solid 530,000.

If he played smart and maintained his distance, he had a genuine shot at victory.

Drawing back the bowstring, he released the arrow with precision.

It sliced through the air, finding its mark.

**1/5**

**-16,369**

A massive damage number illuminated the air above the Dragon Turtle, followed closely by two green numbers.

**+5,258**
**+3,000**

The Bloodthirst Dragon Armor and its natural regeneration kicked in almost instantaneously.

Alden felt a shiver run down his spine.

He had known the Blood-Eyed Dragon Turtle could heal rapidly, but this was on another level entirely.

A player at level 45 wouldn’t even leave a scratch on it.

It would heal faster than they could inflict damage.

But the Wounded effect changed everything.

Even at level 30, it was feasible to find weapons or skills that inflicted that effect, significantly reducing a boss’s healing capabilities.

An idea sparked in his mind.

If he could acquire high-wound gear, he could take down world bosses from a safe distance.

World bosses were notorious for their terrifying regeneration abilities.

Even his Book of Life and Death couldn’t outpace their healing.

But with a strong Wounded effect, the tides could turn.

The only issue was that Wounded gear was exceptionally rare.

Achieving even a 30% to 40% stack before a second class change was already commendable.

But against a beast like this, even that wouldn’t suffice.

He forced himself to focus on the battle at hand.

His arrows continued to fly, each one a deadly whisper as it sliced through the air.

He maintained his distance, using his range to keep the Blood-Eyed Dragon Turtle at bay.

Approaching the lake without a solid plan would be nothing short of suicidal.

**2/5**

Instead, he relied on his regular attacks, shooting from afar. Thanks to his range boost, he could strike safely from a distance.

The massive turtle let out a thunderous roar, shaking the very air around him.

The lake began to churn violently as towering waves surged toward him.

Walls of water, each reaching ten feet high, crashed forward in a relentless assault.

It was an AOE attack.

Alden was quick, but dodging something of that magnitude was nearly impossible.

**-19,859**

A massive damage marker exploded above Alden’s head as the shockwave sent him hurtling through the air.

The brutal AOE strike was taking its toll, and he could feel his stamina waning.

**-16,398**
**-16,407**
