This is a small square located at the center of the ogre tribe, decorated with a bonfire.
The twin-headed ogre mage, much slimmer than a typical ogre, was manipulating magic flames, roasting a whole wild boar.
Dripping fat, the aroma wafted everywhere.
The twin-headed ogre chieftain, clutching a jug of wine, sat next to the bonfire. One head was continuously gulping down alcohol, while the other extended its neck, drooling putrid saliva, staring intensely at the roasting wild boar.
As the saying goes, a mountain cannot contain two tigers, unless one is male and the other female.
The setup of this Chicken Neck dungeon, the main bosses guarding the final stage, is a pair of male and female.
Zi Liyuan cursed inwardly, feeling that he had been tricked by White Crane Academy.
This Level 40 dungeon was definitely carefully crafted to specifically test those prodigious students!
At this very moment, Zi Liyuan had to face this tricky situation, trying to find a way to take down these lovey-dovey beasts.
Meanwhile, at White Crane Academy’s altar, an unknown change was also taking place.
Nine virtual projections appeared above the nine-layered altar, all of them looking down at the altar with surprise on their faces.
It was as if their gaze could penetrate the altar’s defenses, clearly viewing the details inside the connected dungeon.
“Who would’ve thought, onjust the third day, someone has triggered the Talent Challenge. Old He, quickly activate the altar’s projection, let’s see how gifted this student is.”
“What’s the rush? Activating the altar’s projection isn’t supposed to consume Spiritual Energy, is it?”
Headmaster He Bai, while activating the projection function of the altar, impatiently retorted.
“How can we not be anxious? This is a student who has triggered the Talent Challenge on the third day, we’ve not encountered such a gifted student in over a decade.”
“Indeed, the last student who managed to do this has now become a Lord in the Sea of Realms.”
“Hurry up, even if it costs some Spiritual Energy stop complaining, Old He, it’s like you’re ready to ascend to the heavens on a crane.”
“Cut the crap, all of you can ascend on cranes, and I would still stick around on Blue Star to enjoy my bliss!”
Headmaster He Bai channeled Spiritual Energy within his body, pouring it into the altar with vigor, and instantly a projection of the dungeon appeared before their eyes.
The projection showed exactly the moment when Zi Liyuan began his assault on the two Heroic Bosses.
“Eh, he’s a Necromancer, how odd…”
“Profession at Level 25, main skill at Level 6, summoning so many skeletons, his Spirit must be close to 200 points.”
“Skeleton Summoning stream, and even the summoning skill has mutated, but why does the skeleton deal such high damage?”
“Didn’t you see the aura on the skeleton? It’s definitely an aura that enhances damage.”
“At most a Level 6 aura, but that still couldn’t account for such high damage. The only explanation is that this kid must have learned skills to enhance skeletons.”
“In the skill tree of an awakened Necromancer, one can unlock Skeleton Domination to boost the fighting power of skeletons.”
“Level 6 Skeleton Domination can add up to 12 points of damage, but each skeleton is taking out about 50 points of the chieftain’s health. I’m afraid the damage might have breached 120 points.”
“Mutated Skeleton Summoning, Skeleton Domination, Bone Strengthening, offensive type auras, damage amplification, all Level 6… Goodness, this kid is really willing to spend a ton of experience on leveling up skills.”
“This kid is aiming to go down the Skeleton Sea route, to be an army of one, an Undead Legion. That’s fairly impressive on Blue Star, but after entering the Sea of Realms, the further you go, the more difficult it will get.”
Nine peeping old men were chatting idly while sighing; but by the end of their talk, they all clicked their tongues, not too optimistic about Zi Liyuan’s prospects.
Occupations associated with death are very easily seduced and corrupted by the Evil God. Things are slightly better on Blue Star, but once you enter the Sea of Realms, the problems become very severe.
Moreover, if a Lord of the Sea of Realms wants to develop, they need to control powerful forces: not just their own strength, but also that of their subordinates.
Every Lord of the Sea of Realms cultivates high-end combatants, but Death- related professions following the Skeleton Summoning path have a huge early advantage that begins to wane from the mid-stages and grows increasingly serious down the line.
After all, the most powerful Undead being that skeleton types can summon is the Spectre Bone Dragon.
Apart from its Aging Curse being somewhat decent, it’s absolutely the weakest among its peers in combat power.
As for the vast numbers of the Skeleton Sea, they have a hard time even piercing the defenses of truly powerful beings.
At this moment, Zi Liyuan was completely unaware that his battle footage was being monitored by nine creepy old men.
Right now, he was somewhat in disarray, being targeted by the twin-headed Ogre Mage for a Blast Fire Spell.
A real Blast Fire Spell!
Flame Blast, Fireball, Chain Fireball, Sacrificial Burning, Blast Fire Spell—all these combinations hit him so hard that not only was he left covered in dust and ash, but under the meteor shower, a large part of his Skeleton Army was obliterated.
The most problematic thing was that his initial plan to pull the two BOSSes apart and take them down one by one had failed.
Once the distance between the two Ogres exceeded ten meters, they would move closer to each other and perform an interaction that cleared all skeletons in the vicinity.
What’s more outrageous is that when Zi Liyuan tried to take down the twinheaded Ogre Mage first, the twin-headed Ogre Chieftain performed a “protective wife” act!
Mandarin Ducks in Unison (Silver): A male and female make a life and death covenant, sharing destiny. They share life, and if one’s life percentage drops below 5% of the other’s, the Mutual Life effect is triggered, restoring 2% health per second for 15 seconds.
The love of Ogres touches the heavens, but this frickin’ god-tier skill is absolutely nauseating!
It was just this skill that caused Zi Liyuan’s original strategy of focus firing one BOSS to collapse, forcing him to awkwardly whittle down the health of both BOSSes at the same time.
This made an already difficult BOSS battle even harder.
The twin-headed Ogre Chieftain was manageable, with it clearing the Skeleton Army within a 20-meter radius at most.
But the twin-headed Ogre Mage was really annoying. Its meteor strike skill covered a hundred meters in radius, and the falling fireballs were dense enough to instantly wipe out a large portion of the skeletons!
This was extremely frustrating.
If it weren’t for him having reached Level 25, with several main skills upgraded to Level 6, allowing him to summon 32 skeletons at once, his summoning speed would not be faster than the two BOSSes’ clearing speed.
What frustrated Zi Liyuan the most was that every time he managed to get a full squad of skeletons, the twin-headed Ogre Mage inevitably timed its cooldown to cast meteor strike and clear the field.
Once a large number of skeletons were slain, that damned twin-headed Ogre Mage would cycle its output on him, causing explosive damage.
Don’t think that because Zi Liyuan has leveled up to 25 with a life value of 12800 and Magical Resistance of 297 points, he wouldn’t lose half his health from one combination of attacks.
Had it not been for his stockpile of high-quality potions, he might have been punting to death by this BOSS.
