Chapter 249: Great Disaster Approaches
Since Kurei didn’t want to go, then there was nothing more to say; it’s time to battle!
Zane had also deliberated deeply.
The Shadow Lord had not taken the initiative to attack from the beginning; he just kept sending out minions to harass.
There must be something amiss.
During the earlier guidance, Fachi had mentioned that Xieu and Xiin had forcefully broken into the Dark Fortress and heavily injured the Shadow Lord.
Since it was a heavy injury, it shouldn’t heal so quickly.
Moreover, the Boss’s capabilities leaned towards summoning minions; just seeing the three Gold Grade bosses that appeared earlier indicated that he was probably just bluffing!
Understanding this, the difficulty of victory decreased significantly.
In high-tier PvP, Summoners were almost the weakest profession aside from Priests.
Of course, weak here referred to the average winning rate of the profession.
This profession’s common fault was its own fragility; skilled players might be able to use summoned beasts to multitask and protect themselves, but in doing so, their precision would greatly decrease, often leading to losses against truly skilled players.
Similarly, as long as someone restrains the summoned creatures, the rest could output damage to the Shadow Lord without restraint!
Not everyone could operate perfectly in dual-login like Qichan and Starry.
“Wishcaster—Blessing!” Before Zhao could start, he resummoned a buff and conveniently boosted Gal’s attributes a bit; he couldn’t let him be a mere Platinum Grade NPC.
Feeling the swelling power within, Gal said gravely, “Is this the power of a Wishcaster… Very good! Once I slay the Shadow Lord, I will overlook anything you did!”
“…” Zane was full of black lines; Big Brother, why are you so confident? Plus, speaking like this makes me fear you might get attacked first!
At that moment, the Shadow Lord raised an eyebrow and questioned Kurei, “Is this your choice?”
“Yes! You slaughtered so many innocent civilians; there’s nothing for us to talk about.” Kurei replied with disdain.
“…” The Shadow Lord seemed to sigh in regret, “After becoming Undead, your strength will likely not be able to advance as rapidly as it is now.”
What…?
Zane caught his implication—he was going to turn Kurei into Undead!?
“You will pay for your arrogance!” Seeing the Shadow Lord still being prideful, Gal snorted coldly, tightly gripping the hilt of his sword, and charged forward!
Whether it was due to skills or extreme anger, his current speed was at least 300%! His movements were nearly impossible to track with the naked eye!
However, just as the blade was about to strike down, Gal’s body seemed to freeze, unable to move.
“What… what is happening?! Bastard, what did you do to me?”
“Pathetic… a human who has drunk Rainbow Water? It seems that has already infiltrated deeply.”
“Damn it!! Die for me!!” No matter how Gal shouted, he could not advance a single step.
Although he didn’t know what was happening, the Shadow Lord’s attention had been drawn to Gal; it was the perfect opportunity for a sneak attack!
“Kurei!” Zane called out urgently; if Gal couldn’t deal damage, there was no choice but to let him output; with the Undead Fire Sword, the officer’s damage would surely be greater than Starry’s!
“Okay!” Kurei immediately nodded to indicate understanding and slowly raised the Undead Fire Sword.
As the sword was lifted, the temperature in the air continued to rise, and the flames of the Undead began to surge from the sword!
In an instant, the dark sky was filled with raging flames, and as the Undead Fire Sword officially slashed down, endless fire gathered at the sword’s tip, transforming into a red aurora!
“Wishcaster—Spirit Heart!”
Undead Fire Heaven!!!
The Shadow Lord’s pupils shrank sharply, clearly realizing the gravity of the situation; perhaps he had really underestimated humans, underestimated the combination of the Azure Flame’s Absolute Sword and the Wishcaster.
But it was okay; he still had contingencies!
“Corrupted Beast, come to me!” He glared at the Stitch Monster and commanded in a low voice.
The Stitch Monster immediately blocked all attack paths with its massive body.
With its natural tough physique, a high blood volume of 500,000, and over 1000 in physical defense, it was the ideal tank.
“This is bad!” Zane thought to himself; the cooldown for Undead Fire Heaven was 12 hours, and under the critical strike granted by Spirit Heart, it could reach a 1000% multiplier; hitting the Stitch Monster would result in major losses!
Boom—!
-769432
-235671
-79920
A roaring explosion followed a moment later, with scorching air bursting outward, making one feel as if they were engulfed in flames.
Three terrifying damage numbers floated in the air.
The Stitch Monster was actually one-shotted!!!?
Not only that, but the Undead Fire Heaven continued its relentless assault toward the Shadow Lord behind it, inflicting a terrifying 230,000 damage.
Even the shadows behind him were shaken to death!
Looking again at the Shadow Lord’s health, he still had 88% left; that meant a total health of 2,000,000!? What the hell was going on!
He then scrambled up from the ground, wiped the dust from his eyes, and breathed heavily.
“Dammit…” The Shadow Lord lost his composure, his expression turning fierce. “If you’re so eager to die… I’ll grant your wish!!”
As he spoke, he slammed his right hand onto the ground, enveloping everyone present in a massive purple magic circle!
A faint dragon roar emerged from underground; the circular magic array had a radius of at least 100 yards, surpassing the maximum distance of Blink!
“Ding!”
System Notification: Player “Moonlit Bamboo Forest” has left your party.
“Ding!”
System Notification: Player “Burial” has left your party.
“Ding!”
System Notification: Player “Hunting You Is Beautiful” has left your party.
What’s going on? Exiting the party at this time?
Endless Sea was livid. “Those three are all Assassins; they want to grab the gear of the three Gold bosses before they die!”
Sure enough, in the next instant, the three figures vanished without a trace!
“++, those little people!” Swordfire was flushed with rage, wishing to tear them apart right then and there to curse them, but with the current scene, it would be difficult to identify their locations!
“MD, don’t they fear death? Even if they get the equipment, they can’t escape this ultimate move!” Kongsuy also huffed in anger.
“Hehe, as long as not all of it is lost, it counts as breaking even; this deal isn’t too bad.” The sinister Western smirked faintly, raised his long body, and gradually became transparent. “I’ll go play with them!”
In the sudden turn of events, players’ true natures were revealed.
Fenghua, with her left hand on the bow, looked anxiously at Starry. “Starry, protect the NPC or the equipment!?”
The Shadow Lord’s magic circle seemed to be triggered; he had already flashed to 40 yards away!
Chasing him now was pointless; with a total health of 2,000,000, it couldn’t be solved in a short time. The biggest immediate problem was how to deal with this abominable magic circle!
Occasional long dragon roars came from within.
It should have been guessed long ago that the Shadow Lord had the ability to copy, so… what was stopping him from copying a Bone Dragon?
Dizzy—dizzy
Pressure—pressure
The ground trembled again, and countless fragments scattered across the nearby ground as the wings of a Bone Dragon unfurled!
