Chapter 160: The Power of Money Strikes, Arranging the BOSS Clearly and Explicitly!
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
A Death Decay spell was cast, and within a 25-meter radius, it inflicted 400+ magic damage every second, lasting for 15 seconds.
The total damage caused by this skill exceeded 6000+, which was comparable to the Bone Teethe spell the BOSS flung out.
In 15 seconds, the BOSS could kill 210 Skeleton Warriors with its Bone Teeth.
But on Zi Liyuan’s side, there were a whopping 1200 Shadowy Skeleton Mages, each casting Death Decay; in the middle of the BOSS’s Undead Army, countless areas became barren with white bones.
Zombies had high health and couldn’t be insta-killed by the first wave of skills, but Skeleton Warriors were fragile, and even with elemental resistance skills boosting their Magical Resistance, they still could not escape their fate as cannon fodder.
So, as a round of Death Decay smashed down, innumerable gaps appeared in the BOSS’s Undead Army, leaving behind mounds of bones on the ground, indicating that seconds before, the area had been crowded with skeletons.
As for the Elemental Skeleton Summoning, which Zi Liyuan had long abandoned—the skeletons that could only cast trivial spells like Shadowflame, Ice Arrow, and Poison Arrow didn’t even deserve to be called Skeleton Mages. In such a massive Undead Army battle, they didn’t even have a place as cannon fodder.
The Elemental Skeletons summoned by the BOSS were even less impressive than the Skeleton Warriors and died even sooner; what could they do, being even more fragile than the Skeleton Warriors?
“You want to compete in Undead Armies? Let’s see you put your head on the line!”
With a mocking gaze at the frenziedly flickering spectral fire in the Necromancer’s eyes, Zi Liyuan quietly locked on with his Spirit, using Death’s Gaze to scout, and fired two Shadow Arrows, one after the other.
The two arrows, like fiery meteors racing across the battlefield, carried a vast amount of death energy, and struck the paired Ghost Spirits from the left and right.
The violent surge of death energy immediately eroded the Ghost Spirits’ ephemeral soul forms, tearing at their spirits.
“-1642013” “-1641896”
With a piercing shriek, the two rare Boss Ghost Spirits burst into countless soul fragments, and then, the next moment, vanished without a trace.
Insta-killed!
This stealth attack was unexpectedly profitable!
Zi Liyuan’s Level 15 Shadow Arrow had an explosive damage of 1.63 million+, and with the set bonus replicating it, it was a powerful finishing move.
Originally, Zi Liyuan intended to stealth attack and kill a Vampire, but since the four Vampires were standing by the BOSS, and the BOSS was guarded by a Bone Shield, he was afraid that the Bone Shield would automatically defend during the stealth attack. Thus, he aimed at the two Ghost Spirits on the outer perimeter instead.
The attack was far from over, as Zi Liyuan targeted the BOSS’s location once again, releasing the skill “Shadow Arrow Rain” after a short countdown.
This somewhat tricky skill, upon reaching Level 15, could fire 18 Shadow Arrows at once, each dealing a staggering 80,000+ damage. The resulting targeted assault was incredibly dense.
And this time, the attack’s targets weren’t the BOSS, but rather the other eight Ghost Spirits and four Stone Demon Puppets it had summoned.
With this wave of attacks, both the Ghost Spirits and Stone Demons suffered injuries, with their health mostly depleted by a quarter.
Yet, this wasn’t enough; accompanied by Lao Tie and the Man-Faced Demon Spider, Zi Liyuan broke through the defenses of the skeletons and zombies, reaching the forefront of the battle and colliding head-on with the enemy Undead Army.
As Zi Liyuan advanced, the BOSS hesitated not a bit to lead the mini-bosses in retreat and started replenishing its Skeleton Cannon Fodder losses.
As one side continuously moved forward to compress the space while the other rapidly retreated to replenish its cannon fodder troops, the confrontation between the two forces eventually forced the BOSS into a corner with nowhere to run, surrounded by the Undead Army controlled by Zi Liyuan with no room to spare.
“Without the depth of the battlefield, the summons you call forth won’t even have a place to stand. If you continue to summon, the summoned creatures will be rejected by the rule of force to the outside of the current battlefield.”
Without the sweeping spell Corpse Explosion Technique, the BOSS dreaming of quickly clearing Zi Liyuan’s summoned Undead Army was nothing but wishful thinking.
As for the same AOE skills “Toxic Burst” and “Toxic Nova,” these two Necromancer skills are useless against Skeletons and Zombies that are not afraid of poison.
If the BOSS were to use these two skills directly against Zi Liyuan himself, it wouldn’t matter either, as he had prepared a full set of 200 antidote potions.
Let’s see if they can make him overdose on potions!
After cornering the BOSS, Zi Liyuan once again took out a scroll from his Spatial Backpack and tore it open without hesitation.
A light yellow eggshell-shaped shield enclosed him.
A Third Order protective scroll, with a shield value as high as 300 million, lasting for 5 minutes, worth 500 million apiece—he carried 20 of them on him!
It’s just a small target of Dragon Coins, how could that be more important than his own life? Just a drop in the bucket.
Having the power of money, relationship networks, and accurate intelligence, if he couldn’t handle this BOSS neatly, he’d be a fool!
Zi Liyuan waved his hand grandly, and Lao Tie and the Demon Spider, one on the left and one on the right, charged towards the cornered Necromancer Lord.
Forcefully facing off in a fierce kill!
As for his own safety, with the shield and 100 Zombie BOSSes surrounding him, what was there to fear?
Murky green light dots suddenly converged beneath Zi Liyuan’s feet, and the next second, a “boom” erupted, instantly contaminating a twenty-meter radius with a massive amount of toxins.
The light yellow eggshell became tinged with light green from the murky toxins, and numerous cracks appeared on the shield; 22 million of the shield’s 300 million value were whittled away in an instant.
But that wasn’t the end; the massive murky green brilliance appeared once again, and in an instant, the continuous booming explosions were deafening, causing Zi Liyuan’s ears to throb with pain.
The recently turned light green eggshell flickered under the barrage of explosions, with even more cracks spreading across the shield.
The 300 million shield value, like a floodgate opened, began to deplete wildly, and when the explosion sounds ceased, only 157 million remained.
“I knew it, that guy definitely had a trump card up his sleeve, but I didn’t expect ‘Toxic Burst’ and ‘Toxic Nova’ to be capable of causing such massive explosive damage.”
These two spells managed to knock off more than 140 million of the shield value; charging in recklessly would’ve been suicidal.
While inwardly lamenting the boss’s cunning, Zi Liyuan took out another shield scroll from his Spatial Backpack, ready to shield himself again at any moment.
“Come on, keep hitting me, I want to see how Lao Tie and the Demon Spider crush you to death!”
Lao Tie has terrifying attributes, but not much health, virtually ignoring the damage from the monsters around him—it’s only when the Vampire uses a skill that it can break through his defense, causing a bit of damage, but not as fast as he regenerates from sucking blood.
The Demon Spider might not have Lao Tie’s terrifying attributes, but you can’t ignore the massive health boost from the Epic Boss template—30 million health, even longer than that of the Necromancer Lord.
The difficulty of killing the Demon Spider is not at all low.
Watching the Shadows and Vampires bypassing Lao Tie and the Demon Spider, Zi Liyuan took out an Array Plate calmly.
“Fly? Fly your freaking ass! Lie down and fight me hand-to-hand!”
Activated by the Spiritual Power, the Array Plate emitted a pale blue wave of light that swept across all directions.
Suddenly, a square blue space box, with Zi Liyuan at the center, descended from above and sealed off the airspace in a hundred-meter radius!
