Chapter 464: Cleansing the Spectres

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Nicely done!” Zhang Yang cried out. He had the [Heart of the Death Knight] equipped, and would only experience half of the intended stun duration. However, since his character level was already 20 Levels beyond the item level, the equipment’s effect would be reduced. Thus, Zhang Yang had experienced 1.2 seconds of the 2 seconds stun.

After a slugfest, Zhang Yang defeated the giant orc and obtained a few pieces of [Inscribed Cloth] and a few silver coins.

When Zhang Yang looted the item, he found the [Inscribed Cloth] odd, considering the fact that the orc only had a short loincloth on. After he finished up with his business there, Zhang Yang called out to Felice. “Let’s go!”

“Mm.” Felice answered obediently.

Zhang Yang appreciated her words. If only Sun Xin Yu and Han Ying Xue would obey Zhang Yang so obediently, then he could ask them to warm his bed for him. That, or he could just ask them to be nice to each other. He would rather have that, than the constant cold war between the two of them.

Zhang Yang went on and found an old gigantic house that was built from stacking gigantic flat boulders like Legos. The house was so huge that it could be a hall, rather than a house.

Creek…

Before Zhang Yang could go closer to the house, a female orc opened the door and walked out of the stone house. This female orc was much larger in size and height compared to the previous orc that Zhang Yang had just killed. Unlike the male orc, she wore a super-sized bra that held her overly large wrecking-ball sized breast. If she were to have a bra size, it would be beyond human measurements. Perhaps, Silky Soft Holdings could specially manufacture a bra with a ZZ cup size… Or perhaps…not… They would be bankrupt if they were to cater for beasts.

Zhang Yang was not even trying to hide. The female orc turned around and quickly noticed Zhang Yang presence. She growled with a thunderous roar and charged at Zhang Yang. Her roar was so deafening that it hurt Zhang Yang’s ear. When she got closer to Zhang Yang, she cracked a sinister smile and cried, “Fresh meat! Human meat! Best meat! I kill! Eat fresh!”

Zhang Yang charged forward with the bear. With agile maneuvers, Zhang Yang bent over and lay down on the bear’s back to evade one of the incoming punches, and sliced at the female orc’s thigh. It was not that Zhang Yang wanted to attack her legs, the monster was just too huge, and Zhang Yang had no means of jumping any higher than her thighs.

“Hah!” Felice grunted as she changed into a Dragonhawk and fired Fire Missiles to the orc. In just a short minute, Zhang Yang and Felice had killed the Man-Eating Female Orc. Even though he had lost over 70,000 HP, he could recover all his HP loss with a simple activation of {Berserker’s Heal}. Compared to anyone else, the monster’s basic attack of 9,600 could have killed anyone easily without them having a chance to attack. A normal party would have to bring in at least 5 members before they could even consider attacking the monster.

Zhang Yang moved forward and found many more stone houses like the previous one. Usually, there was only one orc inside. Other times, there were two and, more rarely, three at a time. If Zhang Yang had to fight two orcs at the same time, he would need to use either {Shield Wall}, or {Berserker’s Heal}. If he had to fight three orcs at the same time, he would need to use both skills to survive.

Aptly scaled to their difficulty, the orcs had given Zhang Yang a luxurious amount of experience points, which was shared with the bear and Felice. The bear had reached Level 99, and Felice had gained 3 Levels. Zhang Yang alone had only managed to raise a tiny microscopic bump on his experience bar. After Level 100, the experience needed to level up was just too much. Level 96 players would take 1 whole month to reach Level 100, for god’s sake!

The Valley was not huge to begin with, and Zhang Yang had only taken 3 hours or so to reach the deepest part of the valley. There, at the edge of a thick forest, Zhang Yang could see a spring. The pool of water was not far from the smelly green colored river, yet it maintained a beautiful, clear color. Zhang Yang soaked his sweaty hands into the pool, and he could see beautiful starlights glistening at the bottom of the pool.

Zhang Yang took out the flask that he had obtained and filled the glass bottle up with the water. The quest notification popped up, and notified a change in the quest.

[Calming Ethereal Holy Water] (Quest Item)

Item Expiration: 4 Hours 59 Minutes 59 Seconds.

Crap!

There was even a time limit for the item! Zhang Yang had greatly appreciated Felice’s help in killing the monsters. Thanks to her, they had managed to this spring in 3 hours! Without her, they might have taken close to 6 hours to kill their way there! If they had taken that long to arrive to the spring, the elite monsters that they had killed on their way here would have respawned after 5 hours. That meant Zhang Yang would have to kill the monster on the entrance of the valley again, which would only further delay the time taken to return to the old man! The quest item could have expired and he would either have to double back, or the quest might even be deemed a failure!

Zhang Yang kept the bottle of holy water in his inventory and rushed out of the valley. With no monsters around to block his way, Zhang Yang had only taken 20 minutes to leave the valley and reach the graveyard.

“Old man, I’ve brought back the water.”

Douglas limped his way around and said, “Well. I never expected to see you so soon! You have indeed proven your words!”

Zhang Yang took out the bottle of holy water and gave it to the old man. He was slightly annoyed at the man, when he had previously mentioned the number of warriors who have gone and never came back. Zhang Yang was the first person to arrive at this place. What warriors were he talking about?!

‘Ding! You have completed the quest: Calming Ethereal Holy Water. Obtained 5,000,000 Experience Points!’

“This is but the first step, young warrior. What you have to do next is to sprinkle the water on the bones of the fallen warriors. With that, they can finally rest in peace.”

‘Ding! Douglas has a quest for you: Cleansing the Spectres. Will you accept it?’

[Cleansing the Spectre] (Difficulty Level: C)

Description: Use the holy water and sprinkle it on the Spectres in their graves to grant them peace.

Progress: Cleansed Spectre 0/100
