Chapter 71: As I Passed By
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Having lived two lives, he possessed an exceptional memory and the ability to never forget anything he saw.
The images transmitted back by the Vulture Skeletons all unfolded in Zi Liyuan’s mind.
Each candidate who had stolen the BOSS were deeply etched in the notebook of his memory.
If possible, they were all potential high-quality customers.
He swore it wasn’t about recording the grudge of them stealing the BOSS.
How could the assembly of mere elite Level 20-25 BOSSes ever stop Zi Liyuan in his tracks?
The Skeleton Cavalry Corps charged and rampaged. On the relatively wide streets, they were truly invincible, without equal.
However, as they continued to approach the city center, the levels of the surrounding monsters kept increasing. From the original Level 20, they had already reached Level 30, and the candidates around became increasingly scarce.
At the same time, the number of BOSSes that appeared also increased, and their levels finally broke through the Level 30 threshold.
When Zi Liyuan arrived at an artificial lake, he finally stopped for the first time.
A huge creature was swimming in the lake, resembling a plesiosaur but much larger. It was roughly twenty meters tall and forty meters long, but most importantly, it was a Hero BOSS template monster!
[Mutated Lake Monster (Hero BOSS)]
[Level]: Level 30
[Attributes]: Magic Damage 380, Physical Defense 80, Magic Resistance 75, Health 150K.
[Skills]: Slam, Water Arrow Technique, Tidal Crash, Ice Rain Storm, Sonic Screech
[Combat Power]: 450
“I didn’t expect to encounter a walking one hundred percent so quickly, just in time to test the effectiveness of the Skeleton Shark.”
The skills enhanced by the Skeleton Summoning variation included sea, land, and air forces. The army and air force had already been cannon fodder, and now the navy skeletons were finally put to use.
He casually dismissed the Skeleton Knights back to the Netherworld and summoned again. A grey-black summoning formation spread over the surface of the lake, and as the death fog spread, skeletons of sharks appeared in the water.
“Eh, are these really the skeletal frameworks of sharks? Why are they so small?”
From head to tail, they were only about one meter long, and their skeletons were very delicate. Only their mouths were massive, brimming with sharp, densely packed teeth, looking particularly fierce and formidable.
“Their attributes are average, but the bleeding effect that comes with the biting is not bad.”
Under the cover of the attack aura, 256 Skeleton Sharks, like arrows released from their bows, charged towards the BOSS in the lake.
“This is like small fish drying to bully a giant.”
Hundreds of one-meter-long Skeleton Sharks frenziedly tore at the fortymeter-long behemoth. With a casual slap, the creature stirred up towering waves, smashing nearby groups of Skeleton Sharks into smithereens.
“Eh, doesn’t this BOSS’s slap skill require a cooldown?”
After watching for about fifteen seconds, each time the BOSS’s forelimbs landed, the damage inflicted on the Skeleton Sharks far exceeded the damage value shown on its status panel, and it even came with splash damage.
“This slap is a passive skill, that’s ridiculous!”
The information displayed on the attribute panel was incorrect, meaning the results of the probe couldn’t be fully trusted.
“Goodness, is the cooldown of this BOSS’s skills so short?”
While observing, he calculated the situation with the BOSS’s skills. Within just two minutes, the BOSS had used almost all its skills at least once.
“Just five skills, and three are AOE for clearing the field, that’s just ridiculous!”
The boss’s simple round of group attack skills had hardly finished, and nearly half of the 256 shark Skeletons had died or were wounded, not to mention the survivors, each one injured and anemic.
“A level 30 hero boss is of limited strength. I reckon a careful trio at level 30 could take it down.”
With a slight sigh, a sharp and slender Bone Spear appeared in front of Zi Liyuan, exuding a terrifying aura of death and misfortune, and shot out.
“-17810”
Entering through the left eye and exiting the back of the head, a large blood hole appeared on the boss’s head, and a large amount of fresh blood spurted from the wound, instantly staining a large area of the water in the pond below red.
“This is boring, too simple.”
As the boss’s health rapidly declined from being beaten and bitten by the shark Skeletons, Zi Liyuan’s Bone Spear inflicted a heavy blow, truly a critical hit.
It didn’t take long for the colossal boss to be torn into pieces by the numerous shark Skeletons and sink into the depths of the lake.
Upon hearing the system prompt that he had gained 100 points, Zi Liyuan rode Lao Tie and swiftly skirted the lake shore.
He discovered that the opposite shore of the lake and his current location were like two different territories.
While his side was dominated by normal and experience-granting monsters, the monsters that appeared on the opposite shore were rare templates, and occasionally he could see one or two hero template monsters.
“Huh, someone got here even earlier than me.”
When he rushed to the opposite shore of the lake with the Netherworld Demon Puppet, yelling could be heard from the small woods by the shore.
This was a trio of warrior, hunter, and mage.
Right now, the three were killing a level 30 rare boss; they cooperated seamlessly, with the warrior drawing the boss’s aggro, while the hunter and mage dealt damage from a safe distance.
What surprised Zi Liyuan was the hunter’s shooting. Each time he drew the bow to a full moon and shot, his arrows struck the boss’s body with incredible precision, never missing and with a high chance of hitting vital spots.
Upon getting closer, the Eye of Death also fed back to him the basic information of the three players.
All three were level 35 and clad in a full set of blue gear. When they ganged up on the level 30 boss, they moved methodically, holding aggro tightly. Even when the hunter and mage dealt explosive damage and gained high aggro, the boss never escaped the warrior’s control.
As the Skeleton Army appeared, it naturally caught the attention of the trio, and the face of the warrior pulling the boss turned solemn, his movements slowing slightly. While dodging the boss’s attacks, he remained alert.
Both the mage and the hunter had stopped their offense against the boss and watched the uninvited guests warily.
But as the number of Skeleton Knights grew, and they seemed to be enveloping them, the trio’s expressions became increasingly ugly.
Facing a tough nut, it wasn’t about stealing the boss anymore; they might even be kicked out of the martial examination arena prematurely.
“Hey, everybody, I’m just passing through, ha.”
Zi Liyuan smiled charmingly, as the Skeleton Cavalry Corps marched with orderly steps, coming closer bit by bit to the mage and the hunter, showing no signs of stopping even as they were about to collide.
“We were blind to block your way, sir. Please don’t take offense; we’ll leave right away.”
The warrior decisively used a threat-clearing skill and threw a spherical object at the boss. The next moment, a transparent cage trapped the boss within.
After doing all this, the warrior leaped to the front of the mage and the hunter, protecting them as they retreated toward the edge of the Skeleton Army.
“I’m really just passing by. Why don’t you guys take the boss with you?”
Their swift abandonment of the boss tookZi Liyuan by surprise, especially since the boss’s health was below 2000 points and could be defeated in just a dozen seconds.
“On your turf, we were just helping you trim the boss’s health. Now that we’ve done a decent job, we won’t disturb you anymore.”
Just passing by, whoever believes that is a fool!
