Swhoosh!
Warsky bravely charged toward the edge of the three bosses’ aggro before fishing out a dagger from his pockets. Then, he tossed it using a ranged skill. The dagger hit the Mad Leopard boss's head squarely, and the latter immediately let out a howl of rage and stretched out its wings. As it turned out, the wings on its back weren’t mere decorations after all.
On Candle Dragon’s side, Candlelight Shadow swooped down from the sky on his fire dragon and smacked the Battle Tiger boss's head with his sword. This meant that I had no choice but to take on the undead general riding a Bone Dragon. It wasn’t like anyone wanted to kill a boss right now, mind you. The Dragonscale Battle Tiger and the Spear-throwing Flyers were already pressing us hard, and now we had to handle three bosses at the same time. Not even the fattest reward seemed good enough when the threat of ultimate failure was very real.
Swhoosh!
I threw my sword across the air and watched as Coiling Dragon Revolution smashed through the undead general and dealt a critical hit of 500k+ damage. Enraged, the undead general growled, "Are you challenging me, insignificant human?"
The moment I caught my returning sword, I immediately smacked its head with Dragon Slaying Slash. “Yes, I’m challenging you! Get the hint already!”
"Damned brat!"
The boss spurred its Bone Dragon into action. At the same time, he thrust his azure-colored spear at me and fired a beam that was at least 50 meters long! What incredible attack range!
I blocked the attack with the Cyan Dragon Shield and felt my arm turned numb. At the same time, a massive damage number rose from my head—
410,282!
Shit, the boss's level was too high. At Level 315, it might as well be a Lower Divine Rank boss. This wasn’t something I could deal with alone. I backed away as quickly as I could while sharing the stats screen I had captured with Dark Pupils in the guild channel—
Executor Lin Lie (Ancient Immortal Rank Boss)
Level: 315
Attack: 59,000~82,500
Defense: 90,000
HP: 700,000,000
Skills: Ultimate Strength Break, King’s Pledge, Rain of Stars
Introduction: Lin Lie was a Dragon Knight Captain of Dragon Domain, but tempted by the power offered by Lin Na, he willingly joined the Purgatory as an enslaver of the dead. When Lin Lie was alive, he was already powerful enough to win the praise of Dragon Speaker Binglan. After he received Lin Na’s dark dragon powers, he became an even scarier devil than before.
……
Li Chengfeng gasped audibly when he saw the boss's stats. "Dude, I’ve known people who squeeze stress balls to relieve their stress, but I’ve never seen someone who squeezed durians until now. I know you’re one generous sonuvabitch, but you realize that even gifts have a limit, right?"
I shouted while running for my life and freezing a group of Dragonscale Battle Tigers, "You think I want this!? Clear out the Spear-throwing Flyers atop the rampart as soon as possible! Lian Xin, dispatch 1000 mages and priests to help me! Sis, focus only on me and feed away like no tomorrow, or there’s absolutely no chance I can tank this boss! Also, I’m going to fight him in the air so that our brothers and sisters on the ground won’t be impacted by the battle!"
Lian Xin and Murong Mingyue nodded at the same time. "We’ll get it done. Don’t worry!"
Swhoosh!
The scales on my Guardian Dragon Armor fell away and took the form of the Ancient Divine Dragon instantly. I immediately pulled myself up its back and soared about 30 meters above the ground. Almost immediately, I was forced to activate Battle Astral Wind to survive a volley of spears from at least dozens of Spear-throwing Flyers. It was horrible. The good news was that I was in Lu Buyi’s party, so my Defense was buffed by 220%. The Spear-throwing Flyers were deadly, but not so deadly that they were a threat I couldn’t handle.
"Where do you think you’re going, brat?"
The boss laughed with bloody eyes. "Do you really think you can escape me?"
Me: "..."
The boss soared above my head and struck me for over 300k damage. At the same time, his Bone Dragon opened its smelly maw and bit me in the arm, nearly puncturing my Flying Dragon Wristguards completely. A tearing pain erupted from my arm as my HP dropped to just 50% or so. This was unacceptable!
The Chill of the Nine Provinces shivered in my grip as if it was getting angry. The Ancient Divine Dragon beneath me let out an actually angry roar. I should’ve known that the best prize of the WEL would be extraordinary. As a king of dragons, it found the idea of being looked down on by a Bone Dragon absolutely humiliating. Without hesitation, it bit an entire chunk of bones out of the Bone Dragon’s neck!
"Roar roar roar…"
The Bone Dragon roared in pain at the same time I received the system notice: Your mount "Ancient Divine Dragon" has intimidated the target’s mount and lowered their mount effectiveness by 40%. The effect will last for 10 minutes!
I was overjoyed when I saw this message: The Ancient Divine Dragon was now Level 199; a step away from reaching Level 200. Was this a taste of what the Divine Awakening stage would offer me? If it was, then it was amazing. In a 1v1, the ability to reduce the enemy’s mount effects by a significant margin was broken, shameless, and most definitely would be loved by every top expert who got one!
Li Chengfeng called out to me from afar, "Lu Chen, can you really tank the boss alone?"
While injecting Purple Frost Concentration into the Bone Dragon’s head and suffering a stab to the side for my efforts, I replied, "Yeah. Don’t come closer unless my HP falls below 25%. Archers and mages, support me from afar. Also, get me a hundred priests to pocket-heal me!"
While galloping on the rampart with a giant shield in hand, Heaven’s Rain shouted, "Someone, get me a squadron of Dragonlight Cavalrymen to defend the edges of the fortress and protect the mages and archers behind you with Holy Shield Protection! Ranged units in the fortress grounds, continue attacking the Spear-throwing Flyers and reduce as much pressure as possible for big brother Lu Chen!"
Bang bang bang!
Meanwhile, I was blasting away Lin Lie’s chest with a merciless Burning Blade Slash—
351,893!
412,299!
471,724!
Although Lin Lie had 90k Defense, he still ate over 1 million damage because his Defense was reduced. I was equipped with a set of Divine Armaments, Sacred Armaments and Ghost Armaments after all!
On the walls, hundreds of Dragonlight Cavalrymen shot Lin Lie’s Bone Dragon with Shock Arrows or armor-breaking skills. In this case, hitting the mount was the same as hitting Lin Lie himself. Unfortunately, the attack power of an Agility-based ranged class was incomparable to a melee class, and they only managed to do between 1 to 10000 damage or so. The only ones who managed to penetrate the boss's Defense and do over 100k damage per hit were first-rate archers like Beiming Xue or Hymn of the Apocalypse.
On the other hand, the Holy Mages were absolutely kicking ass. Even the weakest among them dealt over 100k magic damage with just one Touch of the Dragonkiss. Lin Qian’s defense was of the metal armor type, and that type of mobs took additional damage from magic attacks. This was one area no archer could ever hope to compete with.
……
"You are courting death!"
Hurt by the barrage of magical spells, Lin Lie abruptly broke away from me and swooped toward the fortress even though I still held its threat. Then, he raised his spear and did a horizontal sweep across one section of the rampart. My heart clenched. That visual effect was Ultimate Strength Break!
Bang!
Hundreds of Holy Mages perished instantly. Ultimate Strength Break could pierce Magic Shields to deal unconditional true damage based on the Strength stat difference, and heavens only knew how much Strength Lin Lie had. All I knew was that his Strength was higher than mine, and that the Holy Mages never even stood a chance.
"Motherfucker!"
Furious, I slammed into Lin Lie from behind and hit him with a devastating Universe Break + Burning Blade Slash combo. Lin Lie immediately turned around and stabbed my Ancient Divine Dragon with his glowing spear. Once again, we were locked in an aerial battle.
Thankfully, my HP never truly fell below the 70% mark thanks to the priests healing me constantly with their holy spells.
……
Unfortunately, things didn’t swing in our favor for long. When the boss's HP dropped to 50%, Lin Lie abruptly shuddered and roared at the sky, "King who slumbers in the Purgatory, I beseech that you open your all-seeing eyes and awaken! I, Executor Lin Lie, request the power of kings—King’s Pledge!"
Beep!
Combat Log: Executor Lin Lie has used the skill "King’s Pledge”. Their Attack and attack speed are increased by 50%, they ignore 20% of their target’s Defense, and their attacks may freeze their target!
……
"Oh no!"
I yelled, "Watch out! Eve, Chengfeng, Little Gui, get ready to tank the boss's next combo!"
The boss was already charging toward me before I could finish my warning. He smiled maliciously as he said, "Come, brat! Have a taste of the power of Dragon Domain! Stormwind Spear!"
Are you kidding me? He got new skills after using King’s Pledge?
I immediately summoned the Cyan Dragon Shield and activated Cyan Dragon Scale to block the attack. Stormwind Spear was a five-hit skill imbued with the power of the wind. I would die if I didn’t do everything in my power to block it, especially since the boss's overall Attack had been increased by 50%.
Bang bang bang…
My body shook violently, and my arm felt like it was being crushed into many tiny pieces. 5 damage numbers appeared above my head—
609,283!
712,672!
MISS!
712,028!
629,383!
The good news was that Ghost Spirit Step Art nullified one hit for me. The bad news was that my HP still dropped to 25%. Lin Lie with King’s Pledge active was absolutely the equal of a Divine Rank boss!
Thud thud!
There were two soft crunching noises as the Ancient Divine Dragon and the Bone Dragon bit each other. At the same time, Lin Lie and I pressed our palms against each other’s chest and cast our skills!
"God Binding Art!"
But it was a miss. A death premonition immediately struck me.
Tenacity of the Dead!
+1,072,632!
Lin Lie’s ridiculing cackle grew even more mocking. "Die, adventurer of the later generation! No matter how strong you are, death is your only end today. Blazing Dragonrise, Enhance!"
Both me and my Ancient Divine Dragon became bathed in flames in the blink of an eye. Lin Lie was a Dragon Knight Captain of Dragon Domain, so of course he knew how to cast a simple Dragonrise spell. This one in particular was going to hit me three times in a row! My heart nearly stopped as I watched the damage numbers above my head!
