Chapter 207: Death Shade
Translator: alyschu
Right, if we continuously move back and forth, Dominating Heaven Blade will think that we are fighting the boss. He wonât be able to sit still and his curiosity will get the better of him. With our attack power, it wonât be an issue for me and Lin Yixin to instantly kill him the moment he rears his ugly head!
Murong Mingyue was speechless when she saw me and Lin Yixin excitedly running back and forth while keeping a look out for Dominating Heaven Blade. âShould we forget about it? Even the ceiling knows that you guys are planning an ambush. How could Dominating Heaven Blade not know this?â
Lin Yixin smiled lightly. âNo problem, heâll come!â
I also nodded. âYes, heâll definitely come!â
Mingyue asked, âWhy are you two so sure?â
Lin Yixin stopped, then looked up, her smile still intact. âSimple. Dominating Heaven Blade really needs this Divine Martial Token to raise his guildâs morale! Think about it, how many people want this Divine Martial Token? Even Candle Dragon from Dawn City couldnât resist mobilizing its forces for it. Since thatâs the case, the value of this Divine Martial Token will be even higher. This token is a symbol of absolute strength!â
I nodded. âRight. If we get the Divine Martial Token that everyone in Floating Ice City wants, tons of experts will come join us!â
Murong Mingyue looked relieved. She suddenly asked, âThen if we get the Divine Martial Token, how are we going to allocate it? Will it go to Snowy Cathaya or Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls?â
I looked at Lin Yixin. âLetâs roll for it?â
Lin Yixin pursed her lips before breaking out into another smile. âForget it, Iâll consider this a return in favor. You helped me get the Moonlight Sword last time so I wonât be taking any drops this time. The Divine Martial Token will go to Lu Chen. Heâll decide who it goes to.â
I was in a happy and shocked daze. Happy because Lin Yixin was so generous, shocked because I felt like her last sentence had some hidden meaning.
Murong Mingyue gave me a meaningful look and sent me a PM: âLittle brat, what did you do to make Beauty Lin act so nice to you? Also, did you notice? She was sounding you out. What a clever girl. That was a beautiful mind attack!â
Somewhat embarrassed, I said, âI didnât do anything, I just treated her sincerely...â
Murong Mingyue shot me a glare. âHmph!â
Lin Yixin looked at me, then looked at Murong Mingyue. âAre you guys PMing each other?â
âNo, no!â
We answered together on reflex.
Expectation flooded Lin Yixinâs clear eyes as she gave a carefree laugh. âLook, Dominating Heaven Bladeâs coordinates have changed. Heâs on the seventh floor now, oh, no, heâs on the eighth now. Heâs thinking about whether or not to come in now...â
I drew my sword. âDonât be too anxious, heâs probably going to release his pet to probe around.â
âThen what do we do?â Lin Yixin said with wide eyes.
âWhat else? Kill his pet then run at Dominating Heaven Blade and kill him. Him still being in the Devil Spirit Hall means we can't fully concentrate on killing the boss.â
âMn!â
We waited for a long time, like we were out fishing. But this Dominating Heaven Blade was a cunning fish. He calmly waited for 5 whole minutes before he took the bait. It was because he knew that if he didnât come out now, the boss might be dead already, and the Divine Martial Token would escape his clutches.
âHeâs here!â
Accompanied by a buzzing sound, Dominating Heaven Bladeâs Tiger Head Hornet charged in at top speed!
I quickly struck the Tiger Head Hornet on the head!
1452!
It didnât die right away but Lin Yixin also swung her Moonlight Sword at nearly the same time!
1798!
Fuck. Lin Yixinâs attack power was higher than mine because of the Moonlight Sword. This was a terrible feeling. My Ghost Ice Soul could no longer keep up with my demands. I needed a higher-grade weapon as soon as possible.
The loot tables of Heavenblessedâs common mobs were so damn poor, and the bosses were so hard to come by. Dropping a weapon was hard in itself, and there were so many different types to begin with. Spears, swords, sabers, fans, flutes, axes, bows, and more. Hoping for a sword to drop was just a pipe dream!
Lin Yixin raised an eyebrow. âQuick, Dominating Heaven Bladeâs running away!â
Dominating Heaven Blade knew that he fell into our trap the moment the Tiger Head Hornet died!
I ran up to the eighth floor and decisively used Charge once I spotted the leader of the Domination Clan.
Whoosh!
I charged straight like an arrow and stunned him. I raised my sword and perfectly unleashed my combo. Pardon + Desperate Gambit!
MISS!
2974!
I deleted almost 80% of his HP in that strike. Dominating Heaven Blade soon recovered from his stunned state but didnât bother to stay for a chat as he continued to flee after chugging an HP pot.
This made me smile. A beautiful figure flew past me. It was Lin Yixin activating her own Charge. Against a double Charge combo, Dominating Heaven Blade had no way to survive.
Crack!
The Moonlight Sword flashed with light and Dominating Heaven Blade fell to his doom beneath its blade.
âHmph...â Lin Yixin picked up a pair of wristguards from the floor. âSilver-grade. I finally got an item after killing so many people. Candle Dragonâs people are no fun. They came to Floating Ice City from so far away but they didnât even leave a present before they left...â
I was speechless. âYou left behind a splendid PvP recording. I already uploaded the video of us killing Blue Sky Scar, Godâs Dance, and Tempest Shadow on the official forums. Candle Dragon wants a share of Floating Ice Cityâs pie, so we should properly humiliate some of their people. Hmph hmph, CGL Hall of Famers are nothing worth mentioning~~â
Lin Yixin glanced at me. âHitting someone already down? Too despicable!â
âAlright, letâs concentrate on killing the boss now!â
A weight named Dominating Heaven Blade off my mind now, I went back to the Devil Spirit Hallâs ninth floor with the girls behind me. This was a ring-shaped maze with a blood-red patch at its center. That patch of red was clearly the boss.
The monsters here were Bloody Ghosts as high as Level 72. They were a specter-type mob. Their piercing attacks didnât threaten me nor Lin Yixin at all. We also had a super healer in Murong Mingyue so our journey to the boss was pretty smooth; we killed our way there, summoned our pets, and got ready to face the boss.
......
We would arrive at the boss once we turned the corner.
I moved closer and stuck my head out for a look but quickly retrieved it with an ashen face.
âHow is it, how is it?â Lin Yixin asked.
My voice trembled. âA group of naked succubi are taking a bath there...â
A reddish hue immediately appeared on Lin Yixinâs face but she quickly grew excited. She nudged my shoulder. âThen letâs hurry and go check them out.â
Murong Mingyue also looked excited. âYeah, letâs check them out!â
I glanced at both of them. What the hell?!
We all walked out together. The spacious ninth floorâs core area didnât actually have any naked succubi girls. There was an armored undead warrior instead. Though maybe I shouldnât say undead because âheâ didnât even have a body. It was only a shade floating in the air. There was nothing inside but something was wearing that armor. Two bloody lights that shone from the helmet were clearly the bossâs eyes.
Death Shade Sagelight (Dark Gold Rank Boss)
Level: 80
Attack: 650~870
Defense: 700
HP: 180000
Skills:???
Introduction: Death Shade Sagelight was originally an honorable human knight on a mission. When the Night Creatures invaded, this human hero lost his life. An evil undead shaman took his body and refined it, turning him into an enslaved shade. Once his former relatives and lover turned to dust, the Death Shadeâs soul finally stopped resisting and thereby became a part of the Night Creatures. He guards the depths of the Devil Spirit Hall while secretly plotting to topple the human regime.
......
âFuck! A Level 80 Dark Gold Rank boss...â I complained with a hint of bitterness, âUpper limit of 870 Attack, thatâs stronger than any other boss Iâve ever gone up against. How are we going to fight this?â
Lin Yixin raised the Moonlight Sword. âWhat are you afraid of? With me and Sister Mingyue here, you think we canât kill this Level 80 boss? Get ready, weâll finish this in 10 minutes!â
âMn!â
I let out a low roar and Wild Roarâs effect covered us, giving everyone 15% more attack power. After that, I unhesitantly charged at the boss!
Whoosh!
I arrived at the speed of lightning and successfully stunned it. I was Level 71 so this Level 80 couldnât yet ignore my attacks. A bit lower than that and my hit rate would plummet, and this fight would be a world of suffering!
I raised the Ghost Ice Soul and suddenly pushed. âIce Ray!â
Puchi!
The longsword pushed aside the bossâs armor and focused all of its frost power on the âbodyâ underneath. Death Shadeâs movement speed would naturally decrease upon hit!
A pair of bloody eyes glared at me and Lin Yixin. Death Shade raised its longsword that was brimming with undead energy and shouted, âDamned humans. Youâve actually made it here. Youâre asking for it!â
Bang!
A violent strike landed on my shoulder. I felt a tearing pain and saw my HP plummet!
1402!
Murong Mingyue was shocked. âFuck, it took a huge chunk of HP from Lu Chen in one attack? W-what kind of boss is this? Isnât it too OP...â
I said hurriedly, âStop talking already, feed me!â
Lin Yixin took this chance to approach. A layer of moonlight covered her purple eyes and executed Moon Gaze with Extreme Break on the boss right after!
2754!
Tsk tsk, our Little Lin here has some superb attack power!
Hitching a ride on the Defense debuff from Extreme Break, I turned around and pounced back with my sword. Pardon + Desperate Gambit landed, shaving off a good amount of the bossâs HP.
MISS!
3457!
In the next instant, the bossâs HP plunged again. Extreme Break lowered a targetâs Defense by 80% and max HP by 25%. This meant that I dealt 3457 damage to its lowered HP. When the effect wore off, the remaining HP would be scaled back to 100% HP, so technically, my attack did more than 3457 damage there!
This was the Fruit Knife Goddessâs unique skill. Suppress the enemyâs HP first and then deal a flurry of attacks. This kind of drastic, rapidfire attack style was very original. Even pros at the level of Blue Sky Scar and Tempest Shadow couldnât withstand that kind of beating!
âAlright Lu Chen, you are back at full HP, hurry and aggro the boss!â
âMn!â
Our pets also began to attack at the same time, as per usual. Lin Yixin came over and spread her hands, revealing a bunch of HP pots. âHere, 20 Rank 6 Health Potions. Drink them at will, donât die now!â
âDo they come with a price tag?â
âNo, this is a donation!â
Nice, free pots!
After receiving the encouragement of a beauty, the Ghost Ice Soul continuously attacked without end. Three powerful players ganging up to kill the Level 80 Death Shade made it pretty easy!
