Chapter 503: Zombie Yuge
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Why are you attacking me? Why?”
The King of Souls did not retaliate. Instead, he kept on asking Li Yi on why he would attack him.
The King of Souls’ Damage Reduction was too high. The highest limit on the Orange Bow that could be achieved with the Armor Strip could barely shave 100 HP off its health.
Under normal circumstances, the Orange Bow could only deal 1 HP of damage.
“Hahahaha, I finally understand. All of you are jealous of me! The gods are high and almighty, and they possess eternal life. However, this is a privilege only exclusive to the gods, and I have violated your privileges. This is why you had come to kill me.”
The King of Souls had gone insane. Suddenly, its body had opened up on swallow Li Yi into the void.
The scene has changed again. In the belly of the King of Souls, Li Yi saw snippets of the battle that has happened between the King of Souls and a god.
It was an extremely beautiful yet frosty female god that has a pair of black wings on her back. She fought by playing a Crescent Flute, and the tyrannical King of Souls was defeated not long after that. He was then sealed into the coffin in the tomb by the female god.
The female god placed the Crescent Flute on top of the coffin of the King of Souls. After that, she left without a trace.
As time passed, the Cursing Sect has arrived here in the tomb and took the Crescent Flute. This had inadvertently destroyed the seal on the King of Souls…
The background story of the Glory Instance Dungeon was completely displayed before Li Yi.
Boom!
The coffin of the King of Souls slammed open. A completely black zombie clambered out of the coffin. This was the body of Yuge, the King of Souls. This was the final boss in the Glory Instance Dungeons.
The zombie Yuge roared and glared with its pitch-black eyes. It abruptly flung a projectile of black gas at its surroundings.
Li Yi rolled to the side and managed to dodge it by a hair. That projectile of black gas proceeded to hit the wall behind him. Something strange happened immediately.
The wall swayed automatically for a while before a face appeared suddenly on the wall.
“Thank you for giving me life, thank you for giving me life, master!”
The wall laughed in an exaggerated fashion. It trembled and snapped into focus, and proceeded to shoot bricks at Li Yi.
At the same moment, zombie Yuge shot the second projectile of black gas. The situation was critical as Li Yi was attacked from the front and the back.
Li Yi leaped with all his might and managed to successfully dodge the attacks. At the same time, he launched an attack against zombie Yuge.
Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!
All four of the arrows landed accurately on zombie Yuge. A [No effect] appeared above zombie Yuge’s head.
F*ck me, it was in Invincibility Mode…
Li Yi immediately picked up on what was going on after checking zombie Yuge’s status. Whenever zombie Yuge would grant other items with life, Yuge would automatically enter into Invincibility Mode. It would stay within Invincibility Mode until all of the lives created by zombie Yuge was killed.
Li Yi abruptly made a turn in mid-air to shoot at the wall instead.
Thwack! Thwack!
[-10000]
[-10000]
The wall that grew a face howled in pain as damage values appeared above it.
Meanwhile, another projectile of black gas hit a suit of armor that was positioned at the corner of the wall…
“Thank you for giving me life, thank you for giving me life, master!”
The armor wobbled on its feet before charging at Li Yi, holding a spear in its hand.
Thwack! Thwack!
Li Yi used Fly to avoid the attack. Throughout this ordeal, he has been shooting at the wall continuously. When he had caused approximately 100,000 damage points, the face on the wall finally shattered and disappeared.
Li Yi immediately turned his head to attack the armor. Simultaneously, zombie Yuge shot out another projectile of black gas.
Godd*mnit!
Zombie Yuge’s black gas had the ability to create life indefinitely regardless of the type of the item. It had even brought a wall to life! If he were to allow zombie Yuge to do as it pleases, the whole tomb would probably turn into a living being sooner or later…
“God mode!”
Behind Li Yi, a virtual image of the Hunter Goddess appeared. The phoenix-shaped, Orange-Quality bow began to spurt out flames.
“Elimination Arrow! Elimination Arrow! Elimination…”
[-10000]
[-10000]
Only then did Li Yi discover that all attacks towards the forms of ‘created life’, no matter how powerful they were, could only cause a fixed amount of damage. The armor crumpled to the ground, and Li Yi continued to fly in the air to shoot at the projectile of black gas.
Thwack!
With every shot, a fixed [-10000] damage value would float out from the black gas. When it was about to hit another wall, Li Yi finally managed to forcefully disperse it.
“Okay!”
After taking a deep breath, Li Yi went on to summon the Lightning Leopard and launched a barrage of fearful attacks at zombie Yuge.
Without support from his ‘created life’, zombie Yuge’s Invincible Mode finally disappeared. However, its Damage Reduction was still abnormally high, and Li Yi could only take 2000 HP per hit at a time. There was no way that he could cause higher damage to it.
Zombie Yuge arched its neck to the sky and howled before its entire body turned into a shadow. It charged at Li Yi, and with just one paw, Li Yi’s body was completely shackled by the black gas. Li Yi was actually hit with a Dark Binding skill.
[-9855]
The attack power of zombie Yuge was also incredibly high!
The Dark Binding could not be broken using Survival Instinct, and neither could Dark Devour dispel the skill entirely. It depended on a certain level of probability.
Fortunately, luck was on Li Yi’s side. He had successfully dispelled the Bind effect using Dark Devour, and when he quickly retreated, he continued to shoot at zombie Yuge relentlessly.
Zombie Yuge’s HP was shown as a percentage. Even the Divine Looking Glass could not accurately ascertain the specific number of zombie Yuge’s Health, and Li Yi had no teammates with him in this round of combat. He could rely on no one but himself.
At this moment, zombie Yuge clawed in a frenzy and roared, “Wake up, O’ Lanluo hero that is most loyal to me! Kill him, kill him!”
Wham!
The top of the coffin situated in the eastern corner of the tomb flew open. A red zombie clambered out from within it.
With a wave of his hand, Li Yi dispersed the Lightning Leopard and summoned the Violent Bear King.
Li Yi frequently encountered the red zombie monsterling on his way to his present location. This thing knew how to self-destruct, which has made defending against it an essential task.
The Violent Bear King slammed into the red zombie with a Berserk Charge. With a furious yowl, the red zombie exploded.
Boom!
[-18765]
The damage value appeared above the head of the Violent Bear King, and it was thrown dozens of meters away from its original position by the blast of the red zombie’s explosion.
The battle right now was in a rhythm so rapid that immediately after the red zombies have disappeared, zombie Yuge launched two other black gas projectiles that were directed towards Li Yi and the Violent Bear King.
Li Yi managed to duck away from the attack, but the Violent Bear King was still stunned by the explosion that the black gas has hit it when it was struggling to get up on its feet.
“Thank you for giving me life, thank you for giving me life, master!” The Violent Bear King stood, its body growing to more than twice of its previous size. It was hit with Life Creation and was thus tricked into betraying its master.
It did not take long for Li Yi to realize how terrifying a Violent Bear King in mutiny could be. The Violent Bear King rushed towards him with ‘Berserk Charge’ and proceeded to stun him with Sweep…
Li Yi barely survived the attack even after he had chugged a bottle of Divine Essence. He quickly retreated into a safe corner and summoned the Mutated Small Wild Boar.
For now, the Violent Bear King no longer belonged to him, and it will remain to serve zombie Yuge until the end of the battle.
Initially, Li Yi wanted to order the Mutated Small Wild Boar to attract the berserk Violent Bear King using Taunt. However, he did not expect for zombie Yuge to throw two black gas projectiles at that exact moment. Thus, the Mutated Small Wild Boar was also recruited by zombie Yuge and had temporarily become hostile towards Li Yi…
“Flame Dragon’s Howl!”
Li Yi stomped on the ground and had managed to throw off both the Mutated Small Wild Boar and the Violent Bear King away from him. With a wave of his hand, he summoned the Lightning Leopard.
The Lightning Leopard has such a high speed that zombie Yuge’s black gases could not touch it.
Using Stealth, the Lightning Leopard managed to sneak up to zombie Yuge and has proceeded to scratch it furiously.
Li Yi has sprinted backward for a few steps before stopping abruptly to release the Powered-up Arrow!
Thwiiiiip!
The Spinning Arrow was fired and has shot through the bodies of the Violent Bear King, the Mutated Small Wild Boar, and zombie Yuge.
Li Yi retreated further back and continued to use the Powered-up Arrow. It did not take him long to finish dealing with the problematic Mutated Small Wild Boar.
At this time, Violent Bear King’s HP has more than doubled, making the battle against it one that was even harder to win. After the long-awaited death of the Violent Bear King after a very taxing battle, zombie Yuge once again shot another two projectiles of black gas.
Li Yi’s attack can only shatter one black gas at a time. There was no way that he could disperse the two black gas projectiles of zombie Yuge at the same time. With a wave of his hand, Li Yi has dismissed the Lightning Leopard.
There was something that he had wanted to test out. Would the zombie Yuge’s black gas projectile be equal to the number of battling units that he has?
After killing the wall that had turned alive, zombie Yuge howled and cast another projectile of black gas.
When pets were present in the situation, zombie Yuge would shoot out two whiffs of black gas. When there were no pets around, it would only shoot out one projectile of black gas!
Li Yi could finally be sure about this in his mind.
Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!
The high-damage Star Arrow flew towards the black gas and had quickly dispersed it.
The battle was already ten minutes long. Zombie Yuge still had 95% of its HP left.
It was way too overpowered! The quick momentum of the combat coupled with the incredibly high HP and extremely powerful skills were the formula for many accidental deaths of distracted players.
Thankfully, zombie Yuge did not have many skills to move forward. It only had a shadow movement that was similar to Charge. On top of that, its Speed was very limited, and it could never catch up to Li Yi if the latter decided to run about in the tomb.
Even though this was dangerous, the feat could still be done with outstanding persistence. Since there was no way that he could get through with this as soon as possible, he had no other choice but to shave the HP off bit by bit.
When Li Yi was busy fighting against zombie Yuge, many other players were broadcasting their latest situation in the Party Channel.
Currently, many other people were also engaged in battle alongside Li Yi!
Regardless of whether the previous phantasm scene was the same, all of the players would face the exact same Boss when they had finished watching the scene. They would all be fighting against zombie Yuge.
When Li Yi was attacking zombie Yuge, all other players were doing the same thing too. The only difference was that all of the zombie Yuges faced by the players were individual and independent beings.
No matter what Class the players were, the limit of each attack’s damage value was 2000. This meant that no matter what class the player was and how high damage that the player could deal, the player will still need to make nine attacks at the black gas to disperse it. Basically, all Class were forced to start from the same starting line when they stood before Yuge, and every class in the game would have the chance to actually kill it.
In the Party Channel, many of the dead DPS players were grumbling and complaining. Since they had no skills that they could use to heal themselves, losing their HP would be a final and irreversible result. However, the classes that could heal could always keep their HP high while they attack, and thus were deemed to be more advantageous than the DPS classes.
As time went by, the number of dead players by zombie Yuge’s hands had all but shot up. 30,000 people had entered the dungeon, but only 3000 were left still fighting after one hour had passed.
Li Yi ran around the area. He had given up on summoning pets and had instead went with the method that relied only on his skills to slowly but surely kill zombie Yuge.
91% of zombie Yuge’s HP was left.
Zombie Yuge has too thick HP…
When the players were feeling demoralized by the prospects, a red System message leaped into their attention.
System Notification: [Player Little Elf from the Magical Realm has shattered the phantasm of zombie Yuge. She was the first to enter the depths of the tomb, and will receive an additional 10 Skill Points as a reward!]
“F*ck me, how is this possible? I still have 95% left after a 1-hour long fight. How could she clear this so quickly?”
“I had the same experience too…”
Many players were dumbfounded.
At that moment another System Notification was displayed.
[Player Ouyang Qian has shattered the phantasm of zombie Yuge. She has successfully entered the depths of the tomb, and will receive an additional 10 Skill Points as a reward!]
“Ouyang Qian? Who’s that?”
Li Yi was taken aback by that information.
