Chapter 165: Killing People; Detonating Corpses; Fighting Over The Boss
When Skeletal Warriors are fighting a boss, it always takes them quite a while to beat it.
That's because bosses have extremely high health.
The health of bosses is dozens of times higher than that of Knights of the same level.
Even if they have the same physique attribute, if they're subjected to identical attacks, it will take dozens of times as much time to kill bosses as it will take to kill Knights.
Knights are tanks. In boss raids, they are usually at the very front.
Without Healers providing treatment from behind, Knights stand no chance against bosses.
It's not that their attack power is inferior, but that there's a vast difference in health.
As such, the role Skeletal Warriors play when facing class users is much greater than when fighting bosses.
After several skill-powered strikes, the Knights were already at their limit.
Skill: Extreme Defense!
The Knights unleashed their final life-saving skill.
The Healer promptly released his skills to treat the Knights.
Even so, this is only a stopgap.
They have been surrounded by a bunch of Skeletal Warriors and can't escape.
The second volley of magic attacks fell.
Screams sounded. The Healer's skills were half a beat late, and a Mage collapsed."
Wang Zihao saw Lin Moyu raise his hand through a gap.
He remembered the terrifying skill he saw Lin Moyu use in the Battle-Space.
"No!"
His scream was drowned by an explosion.
After the blare, only the two Knights were still alive.
Their Extreme Defense skill saved their lives.
But that just prolonged their lives by a little.
They looked at Lin Moyu with fear on their faces, unable to understand how a level 27 class user can be this powerful.
After they saw the military badge on Lin Moyu's chest, they realized they were done for.
Two-star lieutenant, that's equivalent to at least 20,000 military merit.
How many Demons, how many Maneaters do you have to kill to reach this military rank?
This is a representation of strength.
It seems they fell into a frying pan covered with poisonous thorns.
At this time, the team of eight from the Dynasty Guild was fighting the Battlefield Ghost King.
This team is clearly stronger than the team with Wang Zihao.
The Great Knight at the head of the team is a level 42 high-level class user who has undergone the second awakening.
The team also has a Great Mage and a Great Elder, who is responsible for healing, and they are also high-level class users.
The other class users are level 39. As such, defeating the level 39 Battlefield Ghost King shouldn't be a problem.
Mo Yun harassed them from midair, but it wasn't very effective.
The level 40 Great Mage faced Mo Yun, tying her hands.
His skills are very powerful. Mo Yun's shield of light can only last two attacks before breaking.
Moreover, he has mastered several AOE offensive skills. Mo Yun was fully restrained and couldn't achieve her goal.
Although this may slow down the boss raid, but as long as the Great Knight stands strong, the boss can be ground down.
Mo Yun grew anxious.
Suddenly, she received a party invitation from Lin Moyu.
She joined Lin Moyu's party without hesitation.
"It's over that fast?"
Mo Yun lowered her head and noticed Lin Moyu and Ning Yiyi running this way, accompanied by a few skeletons.
The skeletons are holding... corpses!
Those are the other team's Knights!
Mo Yun turned behind and looked toward the distance.
She only saw dead bodies piled up on the ground.
"He really killed them all!"
Mo Yun's heart trembled.
Despite how haughty and cold she is, Mo Yun has only killed monsters so far. She has never killed people before.
She heard Lin Moyu talk about killing people earlier, but she didn't quite believe it.
But now she has witnessed it with my own eyes! He really killed people!
While she was distracted, a huge fireball exploded beside her.
The Unicorn underneath her let out a grunt and was flung away together with her.
Although they weren't injured, but they were out of sorts.
After the Great Mage knocked Mo Yun back, he revealed a cold smile, as if mocking her for overestimating herself.
Suddenly, he saw something flying towards him.
Is this a corpse?
The Great Mage wasn't certain. The dark figure seems to be dripping blood.
The corpse landed at the Great Mage's feet, and the smell of blood spread.
"The Dynasty Guild's clothes! This is one of ours!"
The Great Mage's eyes shrank, and a chilling sensation welled up inside him.
But it was already too late. The corpse exploded with a loud bang.
The Great Mage's Magic Shield shattered, and he was flung in the air.
The rest of the team was also impacted by the explosion.
Then, another corpse flew over and exploded above the team.
The health of the Knights is the highest among the class users.
As such, using Knight corpses for Corpse Explosion will unleash the greatest power.
After two consecutive explosions, apart from the Great Knight, the team was annihilated.
Only the Great Knight, who was located far away, beyond the range of the explosions, was safe.
Mo Yun stared blankly, feeling numb inside.
She and the Unicorn trembled, unable to believe their eyes.
Things were resolved so easily...
The team responsible for attacking the boss, which she had no way to deal with, was easily wiped out.
"How is this possible?"
"Was I hit by a spirit-type skill? Am I seeing an illusion?"
"Did they really die just like that?"
Figurative question marks popped up on Mo Yun's head.
The Great Knight, who was fighting the boss, shouted, "Great Elder, heal me!"
He called twice, but he still wasn't treated.
The boss's attacks are very fierce, and without the help of a Healer, he won't be able to hold on for long.
Without treatment, he had no choice but to activate his life-saving skill, Extreme Defense.
His defense instantly increased to the limit. The boss was no longer able to cause him much damage.
He took this opportunity to turn around. He wanted to see what the Great Elder was doing.
He looked behind and then felt his blood run cold.
The team disappeared, replaced by skeletons, who were charging toward him.
"What is this?!"
"Where did these skeletons come from?!"
"Where has the team gone?"
His first reaction was to run away.
Buzz!
With a soft sound, a large tract of red light appeared overhead.
He noticed that the boss suddenly slowed down.
Not only the boss, but he himself also slowed down.
Both he and the boss have a red chain pattern on their heads.
"Crap, it's a curse!"
He entered slow motion. The Skeletal Warriors quickly rushed over and surrounded him and the boss.
Skeletal Warriors launched their skill, and their blades landed on him.
Restrained by the curse, he wasn't able to dodge.
He is still under the effect of Extreme Defense and so the Skeletal Warriors' Berserk Strike skill didn't deal any damage to him, it only greatly shortened Extreme Defense's duration.
An indescribable terror welled up inside him. He wanted to escape, but was trapped by the Skeletal Warriors.
The Skeletal Warriors proceeded to attack, and Extreme Defense's duration grew shorter and shorter.
Seeing that Extreme Defense is about to end, the Great Knight barked, "Group Protection!"
A sphere of light, which looks similar to a Mage's shield, appeared around him. It is a group protection skill.
Although it isn't as powerful as Extreme Defense, but it can be used in emergency situations.
This is his final struggle.
At this time, several corpses appeared above him, and he heard deafening explosions.
The first explosion caused Group Protection to collapse.
The second explosion dealt massive damage and shaved away most of his health.
The third explosion wiped out his consciousness, and he died.
When he died, the Battlefield Ghost King lost its targets. It let out a sharp cry and then focused on Lin Moyu.
The explosion of the three corpses dealt the Battlefield Ghost King significant damage. As a result, Lin Moyu became its primary target.
The Battlefield Ghost King suddenly turned into smoke, passed through the encirclement of the Skeletal Warriors, and reappeared in front of Lin Moyu.
When it turned into smoke, the power of the curse disappeared.
After it resumed its physical state, the curse was gone, as if it had been devoured.
Subsequently, its huge palm slammed down!
"Be careful!"
Mo Yun snapped out of her shock and quickly gave a warning.
Lin Moyu didn't dodge, but faced its palm head on.
He has full confidence in Bone Armor.
[Battlefield Ghost King (world boss)]
[Level: 39]
[Strength: 25,000]
[Agility: 20,000]
[Spirit: 20,000]
[Physique: 25,000]
[Skills: Nothingness, Bewitch, Health Absorption]
[Characteristics: Halved Physical Damage, Holy-Type Damage Increased by 50%]
Lin Moyu used Detection and gained a general understanding of the Battlefield Ghost King's skills and attributes.
It has high attributes. In particular, it surpassed the Skeletal Warriors in terms of the strength and physique attributes.
Coupled with the Halved Physical Damage characteristic, matched with the boss's formidable health, it'll probably take the Skeletal Warriors a while to kill it.
As long as it doesn't have any control-type skills, there's nothing to worry about.
Lin Moyu will no longer have to act as a meat shield.
Skeletal Warriors surround the Battlefield Ghost King and attacked it like crazy, while Skeletal Mages continuously released their skills.
Physical and magic attacks engulfed the Battlefield Ghost King.
Mo Yun was dumbfounded.
In the next moment, she joined the battle. The Unicorn underneath her launched attacks nonstop.
The Unicorn's attacks contain the holy attribute. Thanks to the Battlefield Ghost King's Holy-Type Damage Increased by 50% characteristic, the Unicorn's attacks have pretty good effect.
In just half a minute, the Battlefield Ghost King suffered more damage than it had suffered in 10-plus minutes of fighting the team from the Dynasty Guild.
It emitted an ear-piercing cry.
Skill: Bewitch.
Mo Yun's eyes suddenly lost focus.
Subsequently, the Unicorn's neighing awakened her.
Mo Yun broke out in a cold sweat. She was actually bewitched.
She looked at Lin Moyu again. It seems like he wasn't affected.
Not only he, but Ning Yiyi is also fine.
The Bone Armor shone brightly, blocking the Bewitch skill.
Skill: Health Absorption!
The Battlefield Ghost King used another skill.
Invisible chains landed on the people and skeletons alike, and the Battlefield Ghost King began to absorb health.
The Bone Armor shone brightly. The Battlefield Ghost King wasn't able to absorb the health of Lin Moyu and Ning Yiyi.
Mo Yun's Unicorn released a mass of light, firmly protecting her.
As for the Skeletal Warriors, they have no health.
The Battlefield Ghost King roared repeatedly, but to no avail.
Its health rapidly decreased.
It used Nothingness several times, but that only delayed the inevitable for a moment.
When the Nothingness skill was active, it was immune to physical attacks and could devour the power of the curse.
During that time, the Skeletal Warriors' attacks were rendered useless. But the Skeletal Mages' magic skills could still cause it damage.
When Nothingness ended, Lin Moyu would cast Slowing Curse right away.
Thanks to the skeletons, which have no health and the Bone Armor, which is immune to all negative statuses, the Battlefield Ghost King was completely restrained.
The Battlefield Ghost King grew weaker.
Mo Yun was excited, clenching her fists, "At last!"
