Chapter 161: 161: A Wave of Fat, Strength of Five Heroic Bosses!
Zi Liyuan always kept this handy device in his Spatial Backpack as a precaution against the significant threat of flying monsters, which are difficult to defend against due to the scarcity of countermeasures. Unexpectedly, it became useful at this very moment.
However, the device was not cheap; it cost him 200 Dragon Coins, but the biggest expense was the Spiritual Power crystals.
The item was purely consumable: each crystal could only power the array plate for 30 minutes. Once the Spiritual Power within the crystal was depleted, it would shatter and need to be replaced with a new one.
An intermediate-level Spiritual Power crystal cost 10 Dragon Coins each, and Zi Liyuan had purchased a hundred of them as a reserve.
Watching the spectre and vampire crash onto the ground with a “smack” as if hitting an iron wall, Zi Liyuan’s eyes gleamed with a playful malice.
“Thinking you could attack me directly by flying? Naive! Zombie bosses, it’s feeding time~!”
Rare Zombie Bosses VS Spectres + Vampires
100 VS 12
If not now, when would be a better time to swarm them?
And how could Zi Liyuan simply watch the show unfold?
With a raise of his hand, he threw two Shadow Arrows, and under the guidance of the Spirit, a streak of gray-black light flashed by.
“-1640122” “-1640311”
Two frightening damage values burst forth in succession; after letting out a mournful scream, a vampire exploded into a sky full of bat corpses, plunging to the ground like dumplings and dead beyond any doubt.
The level 61 Vampire, a hero BOSS template with 3 million health points, was instantly killed under the attack of two Shadow Arrows.
“The base summons of Death-class professionals are indeed weaklings. It just remains to be seen whether the Bone Dragon can take the hits or not.”
After annihilating one vampire, Zi Liyuan aimed at the other three, and under the lock of the Spirit, he cast Shadow Arrow Rain.
Eighteen Shadow Arrows, dense as rain, shot out furiously.
The vampires, stripped of their ability to fly, were slowed down. Being besieged by a Zombie Boss, where could they find the space to dodge?
The dark energy within each Shadow Arrow continuously battered and eroded the vampires’ lives.
“-81290″…
Damage values exceeding 80,000 kept bursting above the heads of the three vampires, their health plummeting, cumulatively suffering 1.45 million damage.
But it didn’t end there. Shadow Blaze, Shadow Burn, Shadow Sacrifice… a series of shadow fire spells rained down madly on the three vampires.
These spells were all shadow fire-based, belonging to universal skills that dealt slightly lower damage. However, Zi Liyuan had leveled them up to LV15.
Originally these skills were acquired to diversify his tactics a bit. Ultimately, he planned to use a Necromancer Profession Skill Fusion Scroll to merge and mutate the abilities.
Employing them at this moment, they still caused substantial damage.
Furthermore, the cooldown time for Shadow Arrow was only 30 seconds. By cycling this skill into the rotation, he could perfectly compensate for any insufficiency in the damage from other spells.
With the Zombie Boss legion swarming in, and Zi Liyuan casting various spells in rapid succession, the lifeblood of the spectres and vampires began to plummet wildly.
Meanwhile, on another part of the battlefield, it was just as one-sided, an utter rout.
The Demon Spider, taking the fight head-on, slashed out countless blade shadows with its two arm-blades, each strike landing on the Necromancer.
Lao Tie went straight for the rear, the spikes on his iron fists, with their ferocious power, continuously piercing into the Lord Boss’s body, crushing countless bones beneath its robe.
All eight of its leg spikes were also busy, transforming into eight residual shadows, frantically stabbing at the Boss’s skeleton head.
A skill to split armor, a skill to bisect, frenzied slicing… one after another, skills burst forth unabated, leaving the Necromancer powerless to defend and only able to endure the brutal assault.
As for the four Stone Demons guarding by the Boss’s side, they were standing like door gods, simply watching their master being abused without being able to do anything.
It could only be said that Lao Tie and the Demon Spider were too much for the four elite Boss-template Stone Demons to shake.
The Necromancer was naturally not going to just wait for death; it threw out curses and other spells with negative effects as if they cost nothing.
Despite weakening Lao Tie and the Demon Spider’s attributes by a full 30%, they could still only take hits.
They couldn’t compete in high-end combat power, couldn’t compete with the Undead army, had their field-clearing ultimate techniques sealed, and their high-power spells disabled. After failing to kill instantly, the only thing waiting for this Necromancer was a dead end.
[Killed Necromancer (LV61, Lord Boss), experience +200W]
[Congratulations to the player for completing the Third Order Silver Hero Class Change Dungeon, level lock resolved.]
[Congratulations to the player for using Hero Boss blood to activate and complete the Third Order Silver Hero Class Change Dungeon, an additional +20% base attribute enhancement received (stackable with similar rewards).]
[Congratulations to the player for successfully advancing to the third class, for completing the Third Order Silver Hero Class Change Dungeon, and for receiving Necromancer Profession Skill Fusion Scroll x1, Zombie Heart (Silver) x1, Spectre Heart (Silver), Blood Race Heart (Silver) x1, Corpse Witch Heart (Silver) x1, Fear Heart (Silver) x1.]
A series of system prompt sounds kept ringing in Zi Liyuan’s ears as he looked at the defeated Necromancer, feeling quite pleased.
And following the death of the Lord Boss, all the monsters it had summoned were swiftly enveloped by a layer of deathly energy and the next moment, sent back to the netherworld.
“Very good, this advancement’s rewards are finally not so stingy.”
He was too lazy to check his level unlock; instead, he opened his Spatial Backpack right away to look at the rewards he had received.
He had already used a Skill Fusion Scroll once and, although it was a nice treasure for him, he skipped over it and looked at the other items instead.
Zombie Heart (Silver): When used on a zombie, it grants the zombie a Silver Hero Boss template, evolving it into a Zombie King, with a level that stays consistent with the host.
Spectre Heart (Silver): When used on a spectre, it grants the spectre a Silver Hero Boss template, evolving it into a Phantom King, with a level that stays consistent with the host.
Blood Race Heart (Silver): When used on a vampire, it grants the vampire a Silver Hero Boss template, evolving it into a Blood Race Ghost King, with a level that stays consistent with the host.
Corpse Witch Heart (Silver): When used on a Corpse Witch, it grants the Corpse Witch a Silver Hero Boss template, evolving it into a Wraith Mage King, with a level that stays consistent with the host.
Fear Heart (Silver): When used on a Dread Knight, it grants the Dread Knight a Silver Hero Boss template, evolving it into a Dread Knight King, with a level that stays consistent with the host.
“Well done, really well done. Apart from the Bone Dragon, this is a complete set of standard summonables for the Death-class occupations. Suddenly gaining five Hero Boss powers is thrilling!”
With high-end powerhouses like Lao Tie and the Demon Spider, but a lack of mid-tier power, as long as he could get the summoning skills for these types of summons, he would immediately have the strength of five Hero Bosses.
This was a temporary solution to the gap in mid-tier power; no longer would he have to make do with a mishmash of rare Zombie Boss legions.
