Chapter 111 - Dragonkind Assassins; Extreme Attributes
Chapter 111
Lin Moyu put aside his preconceptions.
Taking advantage of his superior numbers, he eliminated the Dragonkind monsters outside the fortress step by step.
After an entire hour, there were finally no more Dragonkind monsters left standing outside the fortress. Another Dragonkind horn was dropped.
Bai Yiyuan requires 10 Dragonkind hearts, 10 Dragonkind blood essences, 10 Dragonkind horns, and five Dragonkind cores.
Up to this point, he has only obtained five Dragonkind horns. As for the other materials, they haven’t dropped yet.
The materials Bai Yiyuan requires are very difficult to obtain. Lin Moyu realized that one dungeon raid won’t be enough.
After he cleared the Dragonkind monsters outside the fortress, he took another break and checked his spirit force.
Coupled with the spirit force provided by the spirit set, his total amount of spirit force has reached 3,300 points. At this time, he has 2,200 remaining, which is exactly two-thirds of the total amount.
After he changed his approach and stopped drawing a massive amount of Dragonkind monsters, he didn’t consume much spirit force, and even regained a bit.
Lin Moyu’s gaze fell on the towering fortress, and an idea popped up in his head.
On the outwall, there are two types of monsters, namely Archers and Mages.
He has already fought the Mages, but has yet to fight the Archers. However, when thinking about it, they shouldn’t be easy to deal with either.
A few Skeletal Warriors rushed forward. Lin Moyu stared at the fortress without blinking.
When they were 300 meters away, a Dragonkind Mage and a Dragonkind Archer on the outwall discovered the Skeletal Warriors.
The Dragonkind Archer nocked an arrow and pulled the string of its bow, and then the sound of an arrow shooting through the air rose.
At the same time, wind ejected out from the Dragonkind Mage’s stave. It unleashed the skill Wind Binding.
At the moment the Dragonkind monsters started attacking, Lin Moyu ordered the Skeletal Warriors to run back.
The arrow missed. But Wind Binding, as if it had grown eyes, still hit a Skeletal Warrior.
The Skeletal Warrior immediately stopped in place, unable to move.
A second Skeletal Warrior quickly ran over, hugged the bound Skeletal Warrior, and then escaped.
The Dragonkind Archer and Dragonkind Mage that launched the attacks jumped off the outwall and quickly gave chase.
After they were lured out, the Dragonkind Mage and Dragonkind Archer were quickly besieged by the Skeletal Warriors.
[Dragonkind Archer (hell rank elite monster)]
[Level: 31]
[Strength: 8,000]
[Agility: 10,000]
[Spirit: 3,000]
[Physique: 8,000]
[Skills: Rain of Arrows, Binding Arrow]
Just by looking at the names of its skills, it became evident that the Dragonkind Archers also have a control skill.
Lin Moyu felt that his choice wasn’t wrong.
The monsters here have control skills. With enough of these monsters present, the Skeletal Warriors will be rendered useless.
If the number is small, the Skeletal Warriors can still be of use.
Anyway, the Skeletal Warriors’ attributes are quite high, and the damage they can deal is very impressive.
After the two monsters were lured out, the Skeletal Warriors promptly surrounded them.
The two monsters were eliminated in just a few seconds.
[Killed level 31 Dragonkind Archer, EXP +620,000]
[Obtained Dragonkind blood essence]
“It turns out that Dragonkind blood essence can be obtained from Archers.”
The Mages provide horns, while the Archers provide blood essence.
The level 30 Spearmen provide nothing.
Lin Moyu continued to lure out the monsters on the outwall and eliminate them step by step.
After half an hour, the outwall was empty.
“It’s finally over!”
At this time, he already has eight Dragonkind horns and four Dragonkind blood essences.
Lin Moyu clapped his hands and strode into the fortress.
The fortress isn’t big. Just like the dungeon’s name suggests, it is an outpost.
Strangely, apart from the Archers and Mages on the outwall, there were no other monsters in the fortress.
Just as Lin Moyu was wondering about this, a Skeletal Warrior was suddenly attacked.
The attack possesses amazing power, dealing the Skeletal Warrior serious damage.
The sudden attack alarmed Lin Moyu. He instinctively willed for the Skeletal Warrior to be retrieved into the summon space.
The Skeletal Warrior was successfully retrieved into the summon space.
Fortunately, the Skeletal Warrior was not restrained, but was simply attacked.
At this moment, it looked quite miserable, numerous cracks covering its bones, as if it were going to break at any moment.
In less than two seconds, the Skeletal Warrior was nearly killed.
If Lin Moyu had reacted a few seconds later, the Skeletal Warrior would probably have died.
Lin Moyu was shocked, “What a powerful attack.”
This is the first time a Skeletal Warrior has received such grave damage from a single blow.
Even the world rank boss Lionman Tyrant wasn’t able to cause such great damage to the Skeletal Warriors.
Most importantly, he doesn’t even know where the attack came from.
The Skeletal Warriors didn’t detect the attacker.
Despite their keen senses, the Skeletal Warriors still weren’t able to detect the attacker. This is something Lin Moyu hasn’t encountered before.
He quietly cast Bone Armor again to protect himself.
A few seconds later, another Skeletal Warrior was attacked, and the damage was equally severe.
Lin Moyu immediately collected the Skeletal Warriors into the summon space.
Subsequently, the rest of the Skeletal Warriors converged around him.
An unknown enemy is the most scary.
“Until now, two Skeletal Warriors were attacked, within a span of 10 second, hundreds of meters apart.”
“The attacks were nearly identical, both from behind.”
“Either the enemy’s movement speed is very fast, or there is more than one enemy.”
“In any case, I first have to find the enemy.”
The current situation seems a bit tricky.
Lin Moyu’s gaze became sharp. Once again, the difficulty of the hell rank dungeon exceeded his expectations.
For him, the difficulty of the hell rank dungeon lies not in the monsters’ combat power, nor their numbers, but mainly lies in their control skills.
This makes the Skeletal Warriors unable to do their part.
The Skeletal Mages and Skeletal Warriors surrounded Lin Moyu.
Before he can identify the attackers, Lin Moyu won’t continue to move forward.
Lin Moyu’s breathing gradually became even, and he steadied himself.
After more than 10 seconds, other Skeletal Warriors were attacked.
Three Skeletal Warriors were attacked at the same time.
“Go!”
They were prepared.
When the Skeletal Warriors were attacked, Skeletal Mages activated their skills.
The counter-attacks were unleashed within 0.1 seconds of the attacks.
Skill: Frozen Tempest!
Skill: Cyclone Storm!
Two kinds of attack skills — a range of 10 meters — were unleashed. There was no need to lock on the target.
Within the scope of these skills, ice fell like rain and a tornadoes raged.
With the two combined, ice shot through the air like arrows.
At this time, a few hazy shadows appeared in view.
The enemy was finally exposed.
The nearby Skeletal Warriors instantly unleashed their skill, and large blades exuding a red radiance slashed through the air.
Skill: Berserk Strike!
Amidst shrill cries, the hidden monsters were finally fully revealed.
These are Dragonkind monsters equipped with a dagger and black armor.
Assassins?
As he looked at the monsters, a word popped up in Lin Moyu’s mind.
In the next moment, Detection flew out.
[Dragonkind Assassin (hell rank elite monster)]
[Level: 32]
[Strength: 10,000]
[Agility: 10,000]
[Spirit: 2,000]
[Physique: 5,000]
[Skills: Stealth, Fatal Blow.]
These attributes are really extreme.
Both strength and agility have reached 10,000 points, spirit is pitifully low — 2,000 points — and physique is only 5,000 points.
With these extreme attributes, combined with the skills Stealth and Fatal Blow, they can instantly erupt with astonishing combat power.
As a result, despite how tough they are, the Skeletal Warriors were severely wounded by a single blow.
Furthermore, when they launch their skill while in stealth mode, the stealth mode won’t be interrupted.
These monsters are extremely powerful.
Unfortunately, Lin Moyu discovered them.
The skill Stealth was interrupted when they were attacked.
Now that they were exposed, their advantage evaporated.
Their weak physique has become a fatal flaw.
Under the attacks of the Skeletal Warriors and Skeletal Mages, three Dragonkind Assassins were killed in an instant.
[Killed level 32 Dragonkind Assassin, EXP +640,000]
[Obtained Dragonkind heart]
Lin Moyu felt a slight sense of joy in his heart, “It turns out that Dragonkind hearts are dropped by the Dragonkind Assassins.”
Mages drop horns, Archers drop blood essence, while Assassins drop hearts.
Now only the source of Dragonkind cores remains a mystery.
Lin Moyu looked into the depths of the fortress.
The fortress is shrouded in darkness and silence.
At the deepest part of the fortress, there is a square, which is the last point of the dungeon.
On the path ahead, there aren’t any Dragonkind monsters.
Nevertheless, Lin Moyu is certain that there should be many Assassins lurking in different corners, waiting for an opportunity to launch a surprise attack.
Lin Moyu didn’t disperse the skeletons, but had them form an array — Skeletal Warriors outside, Skeletal Mages inside, and Lin Moyu in the dead center.
The team advanced along the fortress.
As Lin Moyu expected, he encountered another surprise attack along the way.
Skeletal Mages reacted quickly and used AOE attack skills to force the Assassins out into the open.
Subsequently, Skeletal Warriors concentrated their attacks and unleashed tremendous destructive power.
Although the Assassins ambushed Skeletal Warriors and dealt them serious damage, but to Lin Moyu, they were much easier to deal with than Mages and Archers. Because they have no control skills.
Lin Moyu quickly retrieved the wounded Skeletal Warrior into the summon space. So long as it isn’t dead, it will be restored after a while.
At last, the team reached the end of the dungeon and met the boss.
Behind the square, there is a rock wall engraved with a Dragon design.
The Dragon is soaring in the sky, looking quite lifelike.
In the center of the square, there is a stone statue.
The stone statue is about 10 meters tall and has the appearance of a Dragonkind monster.
Following Lin Moyu’s arrival at the square, the entire fortress began to shake.
The stone statue cracked, and rock fragments dropped like raindrops.
The boss began to resuscitate.
