Chapter 36 – Lower Your Sword! (2/2)
“Yes boss!”
One knight and two musketeers stayed next to my corpse.
I chose not to revive, and I followed them in my soul form into the 4th level of the cave. The 4th level was occupied by Black-blood zombies, level 33 monsters with very high attack damage. But Liu Ying had brought 40+ people, all over level 20 and promoted, so killing the Black-blood zombies was a piece of cake.
……
I stood in the corridor of the 4th floor, and looked from afar. Mm, behind the crowds of Black-blooded zombies, there was a grey shadow sitting quietly. He was holding a staff, with loose hair, and his whole face was black. He didn’t look anything like a human nor a ghost, extremely frightening. Hovering over him were some eye-catching words——
【Mage Bi Ke]（Gold-ranked Boss）
Level：35
Attack：???
Defense：???
HP：???
Ability：???
Description: The evil mage Bi Ke, former mage of the Ba Huang City royal family. When he was young, he traveled to all 7 empires, and had quite a big reputation. Under unique circumstances, he came into contact with dark magic, and was immersed into the darkness. He could no longer be saved. Finally, he created the death medicine, and became one of the most wanted criminal of Tian Ling Empire.
……
I took a deep breath. It was a level 35 gold-ranked boss, so it was possible that it would drop gold-ranked equipment! That in itself was very tempting. In addition, no one had a gold-ranked equipment in the entire game; in fact, no one had even seen a silver-ranked equipment. The highest rank currently for equipment was bronze, so the major guilds would be challenging silver and gold-ranked bosses to gain high level equipment. This level 35 gold-ranked boss was quite a good catch.
If it dropped a gold-ranked equipment, that would be amazing!
But sadly, I was alone. But how could I possibly let them finish off this boss? Impossible. Also, next to Bi Ke was a bottle of green medicine. Without any doubt, that was the item I needed for this mission. If I got the medicine, then my mission would be complete.
From afar, Liu Ying also saw the boss, and couldn’t hold his excitement. He slashed with his sharp sword and killed off a Black-blooded zombie, before yelling, “Nice! There’s a boss, and it’s a gold-ranked one! Li Xiao Yao brought us here, and he gave us a grand gift!”
On the side, Piggy quickly ran and frowned, “Boss, don’t be so happy so soon..”
He muttered another few words, and quickly, a knight died from the claws of a Black-blooded skeleton.
I blinked my eyes, and quickly understood. In my soul form, players that were alive couldn’t see me, but other players who were dead and in soul form could see me. They sacrificed a knight to check if I was poking around or not! Cruel…
……
Well, I made a quick decision. I called out the system fairy, and disconnected from the game. You might have a devious plan, but I had my own plan. Who was afraid of who!
I took off my helmet, and brewed a cup of coffee. Then, I sat on my bed, and peacefully looked out into the starry sky.
On the other bed, Glasses also took off his helmet, and looked at me surprised, “Li guy, everyone else is busy leveling up, how do you have the leisure to drink coffee in the middle of the night?”
I smiled a bit, “Nah, I’m having a slight break right now. I’ll get back on later. I’ll play overnight today, and sleep in class tomorrow!”
Glasses also smiled, “Same here. Great minds think alike!”
After waiting for a good 30 minutes, I went back online.
Sha!
My soul was still at the 4th level, and the knight that had died had already revived. Of course, he wouldn’t wait half an hour just for me. Also, even though there were 40+ people, they may not even be able to finish up a level 35 gold-ranked boss. They knew that, so they needed to have their whole force available, or else the Mage Bi Ke might wipe out the entire group of [Wrath of the Heroes].
After waiting for nearly 4 hours, it was almost morning. Finally, Liu Ying and his group finished off all the Black-blooded zombies, and prepared to kill the boss!
“Careful everyone, the monks will go first and attack the boss to get their aggro. Healers heal the monk, and the attacking group will attack in 3s. Ranged attackers be careful who you hit, don’t cause any friendly fire!”
Liu Ying held his sword, stood aside and commanded his force.
On the side, a level 27 monk charged with his steel rod. As expected, he was completely bald, but he had full armor. Before reaching the boss, he stood still, and chanted something. Suddenly, his hands spread open, and a golden light enveloped the monk. It was a skill the monks got from their promotion——[Lower your Sword] LV-3! It lowered the attack of the target by 3%, and the monk securely got a lot of aggro!
……
Jie jie jie jie…
A gloomy laughter echoed throughout the halls. Mage Bi Ke laughed, and suddenly stood up. Magic power sparkled around him, and while holding a staff with a skull, he said, “You little ants. So you’re Ba Huang City’s pawn? Looks like it, come. I’ll open the doors of hell for you! I’ll kill you all!”
He raised his staff, and with a “bang”, a ray of lightning hit the monk!
591!
The entire guild of [Wrath of the Heroes] stared at the monk with their mouths wide open, “Quick, heal him! Go in, GO IN!”
