I raised my hand and activated my full Divine Energy Bar. Who's afraid of who?
Other book friends read it normally:!
In the night sky, streaks of golden seals rushed down from the sky, directly imprinting into the crowd. There were about 2000 people from the Black Crow Tribe here. In the dark, their vision would be affected, so it was obvious that they wouldn't be able to contend against me. Furthermore, I had the Ancient Divine Dragon, which was even more of a winning artifact.
"Little dragon, fly!"
Under my command, the Ancient Divine Dragon flew to about 40 yards away from me so that my sword aura could reach it. Burning Blade Slash tore through the earth as flames surged between the mountain ridges, killing all the archers, mages, and tamers who were lying in ambush. On the ground, the Phantom Wolf King and my apparition were engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy's pets. My apparition possessed 70% of my stats, and it was riding a divine dragon, so its strength couldn't be underestimated. It was more than enough to give the enemy a good beating.
In less than half an hour, only a handful of the thousands of people were left.
… …
"Ah!"
A hunchbacked male priest quickly retreated with shock in his eyes. "Fuck, is this kid even human? He's fighting all of us alone? How is this possible …"
Roar!
The Ancient Divine Dragon descended from the sky, and I landed in front of him with a thud. Then, I pressed the Purple Ying Sword against the priest's neck and pushed him to the side of a tree. Staring at him coldly, I smiled and said, "Boy, I have a skill called Cage Imprisonment. It can kill you until you drop to Level 0 in one go. If you don't want to die, then answer my questions. If you make even the slightest mistake, I'll return you to Level 0 immediately!"
The priest was so scared that he almost peed his pants. He nodded repeatedly and said in a Shandong accent, "Speak. I'll answer whatever you ask me. I won't lie …"
I pursed my lips. This guy is using a translation plugin with a Shandong accent. What a scam!
I nodded and asked, "How many people are there in the Black Crow Tribe?"
"About 9000. Right now, about 4000 are online."
"What other factions are there in the Ironhead Wasteland besides the Black Crow Tribe?"
"There are many, too many to count …"
"Forget it. I'll ask you one last time. Why did you come here? Why did you sneak attack me? Exactly why?"
"Because … because the boss has his eyes on your equipment, and the Black Raven Tribe's principle is to kill players who are alone, and one of our brothers has obtained a quest blueprint that can lead us to the Necromancer Ewen in the Hissing Wind Valley. Killing him will complete the hundred-man quest and we will receive a generous reward. So … the chief said that we must kill you no matter what, and not let you enter the core of the map!"
My gaze turned cold, "Okay, tell your chief to scram out of Hissing Wind Valley. If not, I will kill him every time I see him. If he doesn't mind, I am happy to guard your corpses here. Don't think that I won't do such a thing!"
The male cleric was almost scared out of his wits. He quickly nodded. "I understand. I understand what Young Swordsman has instructed me to do. I will definitely do as you say. As for the other readers, read as normal:!"
"Alright, go ahead!"
…
I couldn't help but smile as I watched the male cleric run away in a panic. These bandits only knew how to bully the weak. The moment they met a tough opponent like me, they immediately cowered.
I recalled the Phantom Wolf King and leaped onto its back. With a low shout, the Ancient Divine Dragon immediately soared into the sky and disappeared into the night. After jumping a certain distance across the map, I changed directions and killed my way out of the Black Crow Tribe. It wasn't that I was worried that I wouldn't be able to kill them, it was just that … I didn't want to be interrupted while I was killing a boss. It was a disgusting feeling.
… …
The perimeter of the graveyard was about three kilometers long, and it was filled with Demon Rank mobs. Corpse Eaters, Abominations, Skeleton Knights and more. Their Levels were all 245 +, and this meant that the Black Crow Tribe would have to expend a lot more energy if they wanted to charge into the graveyard. In fact, there was a high chance that they might even get wiped. After all, mobs that could deal over 30k damage to me could one-shot their magic knights.
There were no large guilds in the Ironhead Wastelands, which meant that leveling up and grinding for equipment was extremely slow. Moreover, there were many restrictions on replenishing supplies, learning skills, and support. It was no surprise that the game's development was far behind that of a main city like Sky City.
In comparison, I was a player who had grown up in Sky City. My Alchemy was at Rank 10, and I had all of my main skills at Rank 10. My advantage was far greater than theirs.
While I was deep in thought, I heard the dull sound of hooves in front of me. From afar, I could see that it was a group of undead cavalry wielding spears. Moreover, they were all high-level undead clad in silver armor. Their faces were ashen and their eyes were the color of blood. There was no doubt that these mobs were Asuras, and they had devoured countless of their own kind.
"That's that arrogant brat! Kill him!"
The Undead Horseman at the very front let out a hoarse roar as it raised its spear and unleashed a Barrier Break. Holy shit, even monsters know how to use Barrier Break!
Clang!
The Purple Ying Sword easily parried the undead cavalry's Barrier Break, and I followed up with Burning Blade Slash, dealing over 100k damage to the dozen or so undead cavalrymen in front of me. Tsk tsk, these mobs were way stronger than the Corpse Eaters we encountered earlier. The undead cavalry's stats appeared in front of me under Dark Pupils — [Blood Lion Guardian Knight] (Heaven Rank Miniboss) Level: 245 Attack: 17500 ~ 24000 Defense: 22000 HP: 1280,0000 Skills: [Barrier Break], [Undead Slash], [Frost Strike] Introduction: A fearsome evil spirit of the Ironskull Wasteland. These Blood Lion Guardian Knights used to be the personal cavalry of the human imperial palace, but when the capital was reduced to rubble, these loyal knights became the puppets of the undead. Grand Magus Ewen used undead magic to strengthen their bones, turning them into one of the strongest troops in the Hissing Wind Valley...
Thud thud!
I wasn't able to dodge the attack in time, and I was hit by two Barrier Breaks in a row. A searing pain radiated from my chest as I lost two chunks of HP in a row. This miniboss's attack power was just too scary — 62992!
“69383！”
I swung my sword and maneuvered my little dragon in a zigzag pattern. I used the undead cavalrymen in front of me to pin down the undead cavalrymen behind me so that I could take as little damage as possible. At the same time, I swung the Purple Ying Sword and used AoE skills to kill the enemies and recover my HP as quickly as possible.
Even though it was a miniboss, the Blood Lion Guardian Knights still had a ridiculous amount of HP. Moreover, their Frost Strike was a disgusting skill that reduced movement speed by 80%. Anyone who was hit by the skill would be frozen solid, and their movement speed would plummet drastically.
I kept looking into the distance as I killed the Blood Lion Guardian Knights. As expected, I had entered the core of the great graveyard. There was a small wooden house in front of me, and an old undead man was sitting on the ground in deep thought. Next to him was a staff that glowed with a bloody light. There was no doubt that this was the grand magus, Ewen. These twelve Blood Lion Guardian Knights were the grand magus' personal bodyguards. If I could kill them all, I could go after Ewen myself!
… …
I rejoiced inside when I thought of this. I immediately cast Icy Cyclone Domain and used my mobility to deal with a group of Blood Lion Guardian Knights. Coiling Dragon Revolution, Ancient Seal, Burning Blade Slash and other skills exploded one after another. No matter how high the HP of a miniboss was, it wouldn't be able to withstand this kind of torment.
The Blood Lion Guardians weren't tofu. They retaliated even though I had cut them down. They swung their spears and hit me with Barrier Break. Not only that, a dozen or so of them raised their arms and cast Trapping Net indiscriminately. No matter how fast my reaction speed was, there was still a chance that I wouldn't be able to dodge all of their attacks!
Pchht!
My body was trapped by the Trapping Net, and I couldn't move at all. Seven knights immediately used Barrier Breaks at the same time, and I didn't even have a chance to dodge. Intense pain radiated from all over my body, and I knew that these seven Barrier Breaks were more than enough to one-shot me.
But before the Barrier Break was over, I raised my arm and used Tenacity of the Dead!
A bloody light enveloped me and healed me for 25% of my HP. It was also an instant heal, but I immediately fell back to critical health. I stabbed my sword into the ground without hesitation and unleashed War Crush three times in a row. The knights immediately shuddered as their HP plummeted. Countless damage numbers and healing numbers flew up above their heads — 152727!
“+30545！”
“155900！”
“+31180！”
“165050！”
“+55010！”
… …
I recovered to full HP in an instant. The minibosses around me kept attacking me, and my HP bar was dangerously low. It was only a matter of time before I used an AoE skill to heal myself back to full HP. I didn't dare to use all of my skills because I wanted to save War Crush for later. That being said, 20% lifesteal was an attribute that only a divine weapon could possess. This was where the Purple Ying Sword's greatest value lay. I would've died a long time ago if I didn't have this attribute...
After killing for close to ten minutes, the HP of a dozen or so Minibosses was finally whittled away by me. They were so angry that they bared their teeth, but they couldn't do anything to me. My perfect positioning, my pets, and the Ancient Divine Dragon's [Summon the Wind and Summon the Rain] was more than enough to kill them. The other readers looked at me normally:!
"Roar roar …"
The two Quasi-Bosses fell to the ground at the same time and roared angrily, "Damned adventurers, just you wait. The great Holy Magus Necromancer will avenge us. Our loyalty to the Night Creatures will never change. Wait for the redemption of our souls!"
… …
My experience bar jumped up by almost 10% after the two minibosses were killed. By the time I killed another dozen or so minibosses, I had risen to Level 208 in a golden light. Moreover, I had 49% of my stats at Level 208 now. If I could kill another super boss like the Undead Holy Magus, reaching Level 209 wouldn't be a problem at all. I jumped off the dragon's back and picked up a bunch of equipment.
They weren't bad. There were three Heaven-grade items and one Immortal-grade item. The Immortal-grade item was an icy whip that could increase all tamer skills by 2 ranks. It was a godlike item, but unfortunately we didn't have a decent tamer. I could sell it at Sky City for an exorbitant price. I heard that Warsky Alliance and Candle Dragon were raising their own super tamers because they didn't lack money.
… …
It was at this moment a large number of red dots suddenly appeared on the map and flew toward me.
I shivered. They definitely weren't monsters, but players. The ground trembled a little. Fuck, it's cavalry. Who the hell has come to this barren land?
