Online Game Twin Souls – Chapter 255

Chapter 253: Too Strange

Shout!

The black object with flames on its surface hovered above the Ice Lock Formation.

After 2 seconds, it suddenly broke apart into countless tiny particles and vanished.

Is this… a meteorite from the sky?

“Regarding the incident where I successfully sealed the boss but got hit by a meteorite”

The probability of being struck by a meteorite in Huawucheng is too low! There must be something fishy about it.

Could it be that player outside did this?

It must be, otherwise, it’s hard to explain this strange phenomenon.

There are still half a minute left, and we can’t attack the creatures inside the Ice Lock Formation while it’s being frozen, or it will affect the freezing effect. The current health level isn’t at a one-hit kill yet, so I need to deal with that guy outside first.

Wan Jian Bu San has come to the door, and although I can’t go out, some skills can still be cast across obstacles. Based on the position I saw earlier, it’s about 2 yards away.

Reverse Ice Wave!

The moment I cast it, I immediately focused on the battle information. For a whole 5 seconds, nothing appeared.

Did it hear footsteps?

I hurried to the window; looking again, that person’s figure had already disappeared.

Where did they run off to?

The Shadow Lord’s health is still at 130,000; in this last 20 seconds, I can’t let anything unexpected happen.

I’ll wait until his health is at 20,000 before I strike!

Wan Jian Bu San stared at the ceiling, thinking that the thing I’m most worried about right now is being ambushed again.

70,000

50,000

As time passed, the Shadow Lord’s life was almost depleted, and outside it had quieted down. Occasionally, vibrations could be felt from the ground, likely caused by that replicated Bone Dragon.

Speaking of which, the NPC who survived in the grave of Sirogas is really formidable, actually pushing the Shadow Lord into such a corner.

30,000

It’s close, it’s close!

22,000

Great! This time it’s stable! Wan Jian Bu San couldn’t contain the excitement; it was time to make a move!

The staff was aimed at the Shadow Lord’s head, I swung it strongly, Ice Blast!

Blue energy burst open, the damage of this skill is based on the target’s magic…

The ceiling collapsed, and what about the floor, how did it cave in??

At the moment of collapse, the remaining resilience of the Ice Lock Formation was completely gone, it had been destroyed.

The frost on the Shadow Lord’s body started to melt; I’m running out of time!

Just when Wan Jian Bu San was about to do something, a large hole broke open in the ground, and dark tentacles reached up from underground!

“No way… how did it dig into the house? Mo Se, go down a bit more! Hurry!”

From the unfathomable pit, a crisp loli voice came through.

“Shasha” the beetle responded and dived into the bottom, while the ice blocks followed down.

What?

Wan Jian Bu San found it hard to grasp the current situation.

Then, he got a clear view of the huge creature in the sky, along with the roaring breath coming towards him.

Boom!!

-12,347

Another player died in the Bone Dragon’s indiscriminate AOE.

But the Bone Dragon did not stop, firmly locking onto that giant beetle underground.

Bang!

Bang, bang, bang!!

“Ahhh!” The entire path was shaken, with 5 passengers briefly floating in the air for half a second.

“Stop exploding! If you keep exploding, I’ll go dumb!” Zane said tiredly, unsure if it was the sudden hatred caused by that divine strike which made Mo Qi unable to escape into the tunnel.

But even so, they had to temporarily hide below; there were too many buildings in the city, making it inconvenient to evade attacks. If they were to fight, it would be best on the plains outside.

Speaking of which, why has it felt a bit cold since earlier?

Although it wasn’t the first time landing on the ground, below that, the temperature felt a bit off.

Zane took out a spare magical lantern and lit it.

Wencheng, Kurei, Starry, Fenghua, the Shadow Lord… they are all here, that’s good.

“…It seems like… something strange has mixed in?”

Puh!

Seeing their sworn enemy, Kurei quickly drew out the Undying Flame Sword and was about to strike!

Starry and Fenghua also got their skills ready, while Wencheng was holding the Holy Light of Faith.

“Wait!” The Shadow Lord’s face was pale, with his health almost gone, he exclaimed urgently.

“What to do? You can’t possibly think we would let you go, right?” Though they didn’t know what had happened for him to suddenly become critically wounded, undoubtedly, it was the best time to kick a dog when it’s down.

“I can help you get rid of this Bone Dragon!”

“…I have to say, this suggestion is quite tempting, but there are better options.”

“No need, just kill me, and everything will be over.” Kurei shook his head.

It’s not that they didn’t want to finish off the Shadow Lord; with his current fragile health, any one of the passengers present could take him out.

But… if they are not mistaken, the Shadow Lord clearly had over 1,000,000 health before! Why would he come to specially deliver himself after self-harming?

Too strange, I’ll have to think this through.

“I… I can’t die yet! The research on the replicated dragon has entered a crucial phase; it’s a defiant journey that I have poured all my efforts into!” The Shadow Lord suddenly became agitated, almost spilling his ambitions.

“As long as it succeeds… as long as it succeeds! I can provide you with certain assistance, even against the Dark Faction!”

“Certain—assistance?” Zane elongated the tone, questioning.

“…This is my biggest concession; if you cannot accept this as well… make your move.” After the Shadow Lord finished speaking, the gleam in his eyes faded.

What he said seemed to not be a lie.

“What’s going on? Why are you here?” Zane hadn’t finished asking when there was another intense tremor from above, almost causing him to fall off the beetle’s back.

“Stop it first, then we can talk!”

“Impossible.” The Shadow Lord’s answer was quite straightforward.

Damn! What’s the use of keeping you then?

Just as Zane was preparing to signal an attack, the Shadow Lord added, “While I can’t make it stop, I have other ways to deal with this defective product.”

“…Kurei, what do you think?”

The girl communicated privately with Fenghua and Wencheng, while Starry connected telepathically.

Boss doesn’t necessarily come to deliver himself, hence in this situation, it should have intersected with other side quests or main quests.

For instance, the Shadow Lord might have been targeted by someone within the organization, or perhaps schemed against by his subordinates who had long harbored rebellious intentions.

They all thought it would be best to observe a bit.

However, Kurei was indeed an NPC; in the end, the Shadow Lord was still part of the Dark Faction, having previously launched attacks on various cities, bringing about countless soldiers and civilians’ deaths.

The conflict between Kurei and the Shadow Lord determined whether or not the Shadow Lord could survive, though the premise was that the boss really was at low health.

“Miss, I… every time I recall the tragic situation in Reed Water City, remembering how Lord Aijue and you fell beneath the Undead Iron Cavalry, I can’t help but yearn to eradicate these demons. Growing up, I’ve seen too many people displaced, losing their parents. And I, too, am an orphan taken in by Lord Aijue.”

“…” Although Kurei was only calmly stating this, Zane could feel the rage in his words—it was years of accumulated hatred, scars left in his heart.

After entering the game, Zane initially planned to make a fortune by farming gold and running dungeons. However, after the server launched… he found himself staring at the necklace resting on his chest, which had mysteriously followed him into the game, as well as a purple-haired girl who had only ever appeared in his dreams. “This isn’t a dream, is it?” “Of course not, Zane. Use this necklace to collect the souls of maidens. It’s the hidden class you’ve always dreamed of,” the purple-haired girl said with a mischievous smile. “But wait, what the…”
