"Heavens, where did you get such a powerful pet, Lu Chen?"
He Yi's mouth was agape as she stared at me with dazed eyes. "It's so strong, so strong. This pet egg must have dropped from an Immortal Rank boss, right?
You … you didn't actually kill an Immortal Rank boss, did you? "
Murong Mingyue was also staring at me in astonishment. "Lu Chen, you really are a super OP. I can't believe you managed to kill an Immortal Rank boss at this stage …"
I grinned. "What are you two imagining? I've never killed an Immortal Rank boss before, and any Immortal Rank boss right now can one-shot me. This Phantom Wolf King is the Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf's new form after it fused with the Loyal Guardian Soul. Yeah, it's just dozens of times stronger than before …"
"Fused?
Evolved? "
The two girls were dumbfounded, so I had no choice but to quickly explain what happened to Mengchuan and Dada. Both of them were heartbroken by the death of their loyal dog, Dada. Thankfully, Dada's soul had fused with the Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf, so it wasn't too bad.
… …
As a result, the two girls took extra care of the Phantom Wolf King. Moreover, the cub's cub form was very attractive, especially to mature beauties like He Yi and Murong Mingyue.
Murong Mingyue protected the Phantom Wolf King by her side and smiled. "Alright, Lu Chen, go aggro the mobs. I'll take care of the cub's safety."
"Mn. Sis, let's activate party sharing mode!"
"What party sharing mode?" Murong Mingyue was confused.
I almost vomited blood. "It's common sense in games. When a party has more than one party, you can activate experience sharing mode and distribute the experience according to your DPS, damage taken, and healing. Eve and I will activate Martial God, and you can create another party and activate Bright Mirror to increase healing by 100%. As long as you heal enough people, you'll get even more experience."
Murong Mingyue nodded happily. "Hehe, that's great! I didn't know it was like that!"
The party split into two teams. He Yi and I were on one team, and Murong Mingyue was on the other.
The Stormy Waves War Boots boosted my movement speed by 80%. These Undead Roland Soldiers were only 10% -20% slower than me, so it wasn't too difficult to aggro them. The biggest problem was how to endure their attacks. The choke point was too wide, and my pets couldn't be attacked. I would have to endure the attacks of at least 5 mobs at once, and their DPS was in the tens of thousands. This was no laughing matter.
However, I can rest easy with Murong Mingyue around.
…
"Hehe …"
The group of Undead Roland Soldiers let out low growls and followed closely behind me. I focused all of my attention on my movement and zigzagged through the mobs in a beautiful zigzag pattern. I drew aggro without touching the mobs, and my perfect distance control ensured that I was always safe. Fans of the book loved to read this: Undead Roland Soldiers.
Rustle rustle rustle...
I sprinted all the way back to where I was. Behind me, a swarm of Undead Roland Soldiers had caught up to me. There were at least 700 of them, and they were swarming toward me like a tidal wave.
After I got into position, I turned around and leaned against He Yi. I whispered, "Get ready to fight. Pets, don't attack. Just hold your positions."
"Mn," the girls replied in unison.
The first wave of Undead Roland Soldiers charged toward us amidst a cacophony of roars. I swung my sword and unleashed Thousand Ice Slash at the mobs. I was going to freeze them first!
Over 70% of the mobs were frozen, and a string of damage numbers popped up above their heads. Even though the mobs were Level 165, they still lost a huge chunk of their HP to my Thousand Ice Slash. The 40% arrow damage of the Cyan Netherworld Sword was just too powerful.
At the same time, He Yi fired Green Wave Slash at the mobs. Her Whirlwind Sword let out a shrill hum, and a green sword energy engulfed the group of mobs. Thanks to Martial God's Encourage, her attack power was not to be underestimated.
Burning Blade Slash rained down on the mobs, and the dozen or so mobs at the very front instantly dropped to low health. He Yi followed up with a few more slashes, and four Undead Roland Soldiers collapsed to the ground one after another. Just like that, He Yi and I one-shot them all.
Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh...
The Phantom Wolf King leveled up four times in a row. The EXP it received was simply too bountiful, causing its leveling speed to skyrocket.
However, the mobs were attacking me like crazy!
Five Undead Roland Soldiers attacked me at almost the same time. Sparks flew from the Crimson Rock Dragon Armor as the mobs' levels were higher than mine, and two critical hits even hit me. 2091!
“4228！”
“4012！”
“1979！”
… …
I had lost over 20k HP in just two hits, but my War Crush had also dealt a collective damage to a dozen or so mobs around me. The Cyan Netherworld Sword's Blood Rage allowed me to absorb 10% of the damage and convert it into HP. I had instantly recovered over 10000 HP.
The Undead Roland Soldiers flew into a rage and raised their swords. It was their unique skill, Dying Strike. This skill had a high chance of ignoring a target's Defense, so they slashed at me in a frenzy and reduced my HP to a third or so.
I didn't retreat at all. Instead, I swung my sword horizontally and used Burning Blade Slash. If I didn't, I'd die even faster!
He Yi said anxiously, "Let me activate Royal Road. It'll increase my HP and Defense by 50%, so it won't be that dangerous …"
I didn't say anything.
Murong Mingyue vetoed her suggestion. "No, use Martial God!
Martial God has 200% Attack and can level up very quickly. I'm confident that I can heal Lu Chen's HP. Eve, all you need to do is focus on dealing damage. Leave your health to me! "
As she said this, Murong Mingyue used Greater Heal, which she had been accumulating for 3 seconds, and used Instant Heal on my head. Two numbers popped up above my head — + 17894!
“+9032！”
Holy sh * t! What an amazing healer!
Murong Mingyue chuckled and cast another Intermediate Heal on my head. This time, it was a critical hit — "+ 28204. Everyone else, read as normal:!"
What else could I say?
With such a powerful priest around, I didn't need to worry about anything at all.
I felt immeasurably happy as I swung the Cyan Netherworld Sword and fired sword beams at the mobs. Occasionally, a Silver Dragon Storm or Cyan Netherworld Dragon Soul would drop from my Undead Roland Soldiers, increasing our grinding speed even further. The Undead Roland Soldiers in front of us died one after another, and all kinds of magic stones, equipment and skill books littered the ground. However, we were too engrossed in the battle to bother picking up the loot at all. Cleaning up the mobs would have to wait until the battle was over!
Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh...
As more and more monsters fell to the ground, the level up light above the little wolf's head never stopped flashing. At the same time, the little wolf's body was also changing as it leveled up. Its body became more muscular, and the fur on its body was slowly transforming into golden, blood-red fur. In fact, young fangs were growing out of the corner of its mouth. The Phantom Wolf King was showing off its might as a wolf king. Of course, the two girls liked the little wolf king even more. If the little wolf was a little boy in the wolf tribe, then the current Phantom Wolf King was a real man in the wolf tribe.
Thud thud thud...
The Cyan Netherworld Sword kept piercing through the Undead Roland Soldiers' bodies. In less than twenty minutes, a large group of mobs had fallen to the ground. The Undead Roland Soldiers that were too close to us were affected by my Deterrence, so they weren't as hard to kill as before. After we were done with the Undead Roland Soldiers, I quickly absorbed their undead soul sparks and used AoE Absorption!
I looked at the ground and noticed that a couple of Roland set pieces had dropped. It was a pretty good haul. There were also some top-tier Dark Gold and Purple Gold – grade equipment that boosted Attack, Defense and max HP, and those that boosted 15 Tactics and above were even better. I also picked up a couple of good pieces of equipment. For example, a 3-star Purple Gold – grade mage robe that boosted max HP by 3000. It was practically the savior of low-health mages!
After I was done picking up the equipment, I remembered that I hadn't shared the quest with the two girls. However, it wasn't too late to do so. I was planning to clear out all the mobs here before turning in the quest, so I was sure that I would have enough.
After everything was settled, I took a look at the Phantom Wolf King. To my surprise, it had already reached Level 54. What a terrifying leveling speed! Fans of the novel loved to read: Fight!
I was even more shocked when I checked the wolf king's stats. [Phantom Wolf King] (Immortal Rank Boss) Level: 54 Attack: 5400 Defense: 4320 HP: 43200 Agility: 27000 Skills: [Phantom Form], [Claw of the Storm], [Purgatory Storm]...
Fuck!
A Level 54 Phantom Wolf King has over 40000 HP? That's a lot more than me?
If the Phantom Wolf King reached Level 150, wouldn't it have an upper limit of 150,000 HP? In addition to its powerful Defense, who could possibly kill it?
Moreover, its Defense, Attack, and Agility were also incredible. Right now, its Defense was over 4000, but it wasn't strong enough. By the time it reached Level 100, it should have 8000 + Defense, which should be enough to tank the mobs here. Moreover, it looked like the little wolf would reach Level 100 after killing another three batches of these mobs. Hehe, this quest is really rewarding. I bet that the little wolf will reach Level 120 by the time we finish this quest.
Yeah, I'll let the little wolf join the party when it reaches Level 100. It would be a waste not to use super AoE skills like Claw of the Storm and Purgatory Storm!
The two girls were speechless when they saw the little wolf's stats. Murong Mingyue rubbed the wolf's head and said, "My Ironwing Dragon is a dragon, but it's … it's so much weaker than the Phantom Wolf King. This is unfair …"
I smiled. "The Phantom Wolf King is a king. Your Ironwing Dragon may be a dragon, but it's just a side character. Don't worry, sis …"
Murong Mingyue puffed out her chest and said, "Hmph, go aggro the mobs already. I want my Ironwing Dragon to reach Level 130 as soon as possible. It'll definitely be very powerful!"
"Mn."
I was born to run errands. I gripped the Cyan Netherworld Sword and charged into the mob once more.
The days of smiling proudly in the martial world were blissful!
