Chapter 195: Killing Four Lord Bosses in a Sneaky Attack
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Fireworks filled the sky, fel energy rampaged, flames roared fiercely, and green fire scorched the heavens.
Zi Liyuan was in a dire state at the moment. He had been relying on the Skeleton Army and the Zombie Army to single-handedly challenge the Demon Army.
However, the enemy didn’t play by the rules, bullied the lesser with the greater, and cleaned the field with AOE skills.
Skeleton Warriors, Ghost Skeleton Mages, minor Zombie monsters – all summoned creatures outside of the palace turned into ashes.
That forced Zi Liyuan and his companions to retreat back into the palace, they didn’t even manage to block the great doors, which were breached by the Demon Army.
But with the palace as a barrier, especially with Demonic Runes engraved on it immune to fel corruption, the AOE skills of the four Bosses couldn’t damage the outer walls of the palace.
The palace doors were large but their width was ultimately limited. On top of that, demons were generally huge in size, allowing at most ten of them to pass through shoulder to shoulder.
Therefore, the Zombie Army could completely block the doorway from the inside, recklessly hindering the influx of the Demon Army.
At the same time, Zi Liyuan once again took out ten Level 80 Lord Boss corpses from his Spatial Backpack, with twenty Vulture Skeletons each grabbing one, hiding above the palace gate.
What followed was a war of attrition.
The Demon Army and the Zombie Army began their deadly trade-off.
But it seemed that the Zombie Army suffered far greater losses than the Demon Army’s mortality rate.
However, Zi Liyuan and his three companions were not worried at all, especially with the Spider Queen stationed not far from the door. Her Dual Blades created afterimages, clearing a five-meter space around her.
Whether it was the bustling demons entering the palace or the pressing zombies, all were mercilessly slaughtered into pieces.
Zi Liyuan’s face turned somewhat dark at the Spider Queen’s passive resistance at this moment.
But it couldn’t be denied that the Spider Queen was extremely powerful. She alone blocked a third of the entrance.
She presented a solid rock for the Demon Army, splitting it in two, inadvertently forfeiting their most advantageous position.
The four Lord Bosses, standing guard at the entrance of the great hall, looked as sullen as if they had eaten something terrible.
The two sides seemed to have entered into a tacit stalemate.
Zombies died faster than demons, but dead demons, too, would rise and join the Zombie Army, baring their fangs and ripping into their recent allies.
In fact, the Zombie Army’s losses were far from as rapid as they seemed, and Zi Liyuan occasionally threw a few corpses from his Spatial Backpack to replenish their numbers.
Overall, the Demon Army was constantly being worn down while the number in Zi Liyuan’s Undead Army didn’t decrease by much.
After retreating to the palace, Zi Liyuan replenished the Ghost Skeleton Mages to over 2000, which also began to gradually increase the Demon Army’s mortality rate.
The scope of death and decay made the Demon Army wary, as no creature liked to die for no reason.
Even with high resistance, the Demon Army couldn’t withstand the cursed onslaught of hundreds of death decay spells.
The four Lord Bosses looked at each other, but none of them were willing to lead the charge.
Even though the Spider Queen was only Level 65, the oppressive might of her Legendary BOSS bloodline exerted great pressure on them.
In a one-on-one PK, none of the four Lord Bosses dared claim they could win.
But storming the palace to force a kill wasn’t possible either, the other side was not weak, especially with the ability to instantly kill doomsday guards, which frightened them even more.
Despite all four Lord Bosses being Fourth Order Level 100, not even the one with the longest health exceeded the number 5000W.
The level disparity did not close the gap in strength between the two sides.
Hence, the four Lord Bosses quite tacitly organized their personal guard troops to assemble.
Doomsday guard hero teams, composed of BOSS units, sounded the horn of charge, a resolute declaration of facing death, leading the Demon Army as they attacked through the main entrance.
What met them first was a gray-brown Bone Spear.
The Bone Spear, rich with the breath of death and terrifying lethality, pierced the chest of the first doomsday guard that charged into the great hall.
Simultaneously, two arrows of death struck one after the other, both embedding themselves in the ill-fated doomsday guard.
The next instant, a vast dark force burst forth, quickly claiming the life of the doomsday guard.
Before the body of the doomsday guard hit the floor, Zi Liyuan’s Magic Wand pointed, and the already burly body of the guard swelled rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, a thunderous explosion echoed throughout the hall.
Death’s essence swept through a twenty-meter radius at the entrance. All monsters within this range, whether Demon Army or Zombie Army, fell down like dumplings, motionless.
The small BOSSes that followed the doomsday guard’s charge, each performed an emergency stop. It was indeed a tight squeeze.
After the brief explosion, the doomsday guards that followed into the hall, their eyes blood-red and breathing heavily, rushed towards the Spider Queen without care.
“Tsk tsk, these doomsday guards really are fearless in the face of death, knowing they’ll die yet still delivering themselves,” said Zi Liyuan, his eyes slightly narrowed. His gaze had not left the four Lord Bosses outside the palace from the beginning.
These four were the appetizers, and others were merely pre-dinner snacks, many not even amounting to that.
