Chapter 20: There’s No Way He Could Have Beaten That Boss
BruiserBear was exactly what his name suggested—a towering brute nearly two meters tall, thickset, and built like a freight train. He looked like the kind of guy who bench-pressed steel for fun in real life.
Without hesitation, he charged at Isaac with his Hyenaman Club raised high.
"Boss, huh? Let's see how you like this!" BruiserBear roared, bringing his weapon down with full force.
CRACK!
A single number popped up above Isaac's head:
-1
Everyone fell silent.
"...What the hell?! Just 1 damage?!" BruiserBear stared at the Hyenaman in disbelief. "What is this guy's DEF?!"
"Wait a second, is that... 1150 HP?!"
Compared to their own puny 300-400 HP, Isaac's four-digit health bar looked absolutely terrifying.
Isaac's physical defense was 28. The average level 5 player, armed with a 1-star Hyenaman Club, had an attack stat of around 20-23. The -1 was basically the system's minimum forced damage.
