Chapter 10 (2/2)

…

The Fusion Corpse Demon was about four to five meters tall; it also looked just like a giant created from a large pile of flesh. It also had a layer of white bones wrapped around its fists, making it look like it was wearing a pair of gloves made of bone, which made it even more terrifying.

“Damn it, 18,000 HP!” After looking at the Fusion Corpse Demon’s terrifyingly high HP and his EXP bar that was about 7% short of advancing to Level 8, Liu Ming felt like beating the game planners up. However, just as Liu Ming calmed down and planned to give it a go, the situation changed again.

The Fusion Corpse Demon suddenly roared and ignored Liu Ming as it rushed towards the red stone that did not fall too far away.

Looking at the Fusion Corpse Demon that dashed towards the red stone, a thought popped up in Liu Ming’s mind. Sacrifice! Flaw! So that’s what happened. I have a solution!

Thus, Liu Ming rushed towards the Fusion Corpse Demon without hesitation and forcefully slashed its thigh with his sword, causing it to stumble and almost fall.

At the same time, it also caused some damage to the Fusion Corpse Demon.

Before the Fusion Corpse Demon could turn around and counterattack, Liu Ming walked past the side of the Fusion Corpse Demon and grabbed the red stone to place it inside his backpack before the Fusion Corpse Demon could.

[Congratulations, Adventurer, you have obtained the Sanguine Crystal (Purple)]

[Hint: Sanguine Crystal (Purple) is a special object that will drop right after one dies. (The effects will be removed after the death of the Leader-level Monster, Unsteady Fusion Corpse Demon.)]

After seeing the system prompt, Liu Ming knew that he had made the right bet. Hence, he dashed towards the exit of the underground palace without hesitation.

At this moment, the Fusion Corpse Demon happened to see Liu Ming running towards the underground palace’s exit with the Sanguine Crystal and immediately flew into a rage before roaring and chasing after Liu Ming.

Although the Fusion Corpse Demon could sprint quickly in a straight line, its turning speed was a little less than satisfactory.

After being teased by Liu Ming several times, the distance between the Fusion Corpse Demon and Liu Ming increased up to nearly 50 meters.

In fact, if Liu Ming did not deliberately maintain the distance between them after he was 50 meters away, he would’ve been even further from the Fusion Corpse Demon.

Soon, Liu Ming led the Fusion Corpse Demon to the trapped passage.

Although Liu Ming had triggered quite a few traps when he entered the underground palace, most of the traps were still intact. After all, Liu Ming was not reckless, and he couldn’t have possibly triggered all the traps.

However, the actual reckless figure, the Fusion Corpse Demon, had arrived and stepped on all the remaining traps.

The Fusion Corpse Demon looked rather cool as sparks went off in every area it stepped on along the way.

Similarly, continuous damage was dealt to the Fusion Corpse Demon.

Although the traps didn’t deal very high damage to the Fusion Corpse Demon, there was a large quantity of them.

When the Fusion Corpse Demon chased Liu Ming through the passage of traps, its HP decreased from 18,000 to 5,000-something.

However, Liu Ming still didn’t turn around to fight with the Fusion Corpse Demon. Instead, he used his longsword to slaughter the Phantom Spiders in the Phantom Spider cave.

…

Liu Ming, whose Attacking Power was more than 200 points, could kill the Phantom Spiders with greater ease. A few minutes later, tens of Phantom Spiders died in Liu Ming’s hands.

When the last Phantom Spider collapsed, a glistening beam of gold light flashed past Liu Ming’s body.

Next, another ray of light flashed around Liu Ming, and his original leather armor was instantly replaced by extremely domineering Knight armor.

Liu Ming had finally advanced to Level 8.

After looking at his stats—which had increased again—Liu Ming turned to look at the Fusion Corpse Demon that was getting closer and closer to him.

A huge battle was about to happen soon.
