Chapter 1091: Sacred Armament (1/2)
”Shit! The Black Crow Tribe is here!”
The vice leader of Sacred Oath, the Level 197 magic knight, swore grimly, ”We cannot allow them to disrupt our boss fight!”
After slashing the boss's scepter and executing Barrier Break, Hickey said in a low voice, ”Take two thousand players with you and kill them all. No one is allowed to disrupt our plans and steal our boss, especially Black Crow Tribe!”
”Yes ma’am!”
The vice leader immediately raised his spear and ordered, ”Third legion, follow me! It’s time for some house cleaning! Don’t leave a single Black Crow Tribe player alive!”
Hundreds of cavalrymen immediately charged toward the Black Crow Tribe. They were followed by a not-insignificant number of archers as well.
It was a one-sided slaughter. The Black Crow Tribe guild was utterly inferior to Sacred Oath, so they were taken out in just the blink of an eye. Their dwarven guild leader took one spear hit to the heart and died as well.
……
Time passed quickly, and so did the boss's HP. Less than 20 minutes later, the boss only had 5% left.
Still hiding in the underground, I was stuck between the choice to steal or give up the boss. If I stole the boss, I would be making an enemy out of Sacred Oath. However, metaphorically speaking, I was incredibly reluctant to give up the food in my mouth.
It was at this moment Hickey was sent stumbling toward my position by another Current Blast. While accepting the heals of her priests and drinking a health potion, she abruptly glanced in my direction and smirked knowingly. ”I knew it…”
Shit! I hurriedly backed away and prayed that it was just a fluke.
Unfortunately, Hickey really did discover my position. She abruptly charged toward me and cried, ”Breaking Slash! Show yourself, Chinese boy!”
Bang!
It was either revealing myself now or taking a sword to the face, so I immediately returned to the surface and clashed swords with Hickey!
Chiang!
Sparks flew everywhere, and neither of us was able to get the upper hand over the other person, at least damage-wise. However, due to the difference in our Strength stats, Hickey and her mount were sent stumbling.
After that, I raised my arm and growled, ”Come out, Divine Dragon!”
The Ancient Divine Dragon awoke from my pet space. It appeared with a ton of pretty special effects and in its adult form and pressed its large head affectionately against my arm. The mount seat was literally right next to me, so I grabbed the vine, climbed up my dragon’s back and instantly gained a massive boost of stats.
Hickey stayed her hand after forcing me out of my hiding spot. She stared at me and asked, ”I heard you offended a lot of people, Chinese boy?”
I smiled. ”Not at all!”
”Hmph!”
Hickey shot a glance at the boss's HP before turning her gaze back to me. ”I heard that something big happened at Elephant City a few days ago, and unless I’m mistaken, you are the person behind it. No one else has the power to enrage those Indian experts that much. Still, you shouldn’t have come to Iron Skull Wilderness!”
I raised an eyebrow. ”Why not?”
Hickey replied indifferently, ”Your presence will bring chaos to these lands and disrupt our peaceful life.”
I shot the boss's HP a glance myself before replying, ”Huh. It almost sounds like you’re terrified of the Indians.”
”Hmph. It’s none of your business!”
Hickey abruptly backed away from me and ordered, ”Stun him with Shock Arrow and focus-fire him now! He mustn’t be allowed to escape this valley!”
A rain of arrows flew toward me. It was too coordinated to be an impromptu order. She must’ve coordinated this in the guild channel while we were speaking!
My eyes narrowed as I locked onto the boss and Charged. Despite the size of the Ancient Divine Dragon, I vanished from my original spot so fast that it almost looked like I had teleported. I hit the boss at the same time I heard the rain of arrows thudding into the ground I was standing at mere moments earlier. Thank goodness I managed to react in time, or not even I with my resistance would be able to avoid getting stunned.
……
Right now, the poor Great Undead Magus Juve only had less than 2% HP left. After I lowered his Defense drastically with Purple Frost Concentration, I executed Universe Break + Burning Blade Slash for massive damage—
221837!
142838!
183773!
1657964!
My super high damage stunned everyone. The last hit of the Burning Blade Slash even triggered the Purple Ying Sword’s septuple damage effect, killing Juve instantly. Although the experience didn’t go to me, a ton of equipment was exploding from the boss's body. Suddenly, a system announcement rang and stopped our hearts temporarily—
Ding~!
System Announcement: Attention all players, Great Undead Magus Juve has been killed by player ”Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand”, and has dropped the Sacred Armament, ”Fire God Helmet”. The current location of ”Fire God Helmet” is: Zephyr Valley (11277, 2838). The Sacred Armament will drop if the player holding it is killed. If the player logs out of the game, the Sacred Armament will automatically drop. The player with the Sacred Armament also cannot use any invincibility skill, teleport to a city, or fly. Once a player has held onto the Sacred Armament for 10 hours, the item will automatically become bound to the player.
……
It was nighttime, but I was able to spot the fiery red helmet amid the dropped items perfectly. It had to be the legendary Sacred Armament! Haha! What an interesting map this is! I never thought that the final boss would lob a bomb into the players’ laps after he died!
Pa!
I moved like the wind, grabbed the scorching hot Fire God Helmet, and put it in my bag immediately. The action triggered another system announcement—
System Announcement: Attention all players, player ”Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand” has claimed the Sacred Armament ”Fire God Helmet”. Its current coordinates are: Zephyr Valley (11277, 2839). Kill the player for a 100% chance to get the Fire God Helmet to drop!
……
What an abominable system announcement! What should I do with this bomb, I wonder? Flying was forbidden while the Fire God Helmet was still in my possession. For 10 hours, my Ancient Divine Dragon would be no better than a land-bound snake...
Ten yards away, Hickey shouted in an urgent voice after she came to her senses, ”Spread out and kill Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand now! Quickly!”
