Chapter 292: Chapter 96 Feng Saves MeSalted Fish had a dazed expression, "Fuck, where is everyone?" Down the corridor, the shouts of two people could be heard from afar, "Run fast! We can’t beat it." At this point, the two who had been possessed had been slashed over by the chaotic strikes from the crowd, but two of the crowd had fallen as well. Seeing this scene, they hurriedly scattered in all directions, and in the blink of an eye, the group dispersed, leaving Salted Fish and Heavenly Soldiers behind to face the boss’s attack alone, Salted Fish trembled with anger, feeling a chill in his heart, "Damn it, what the hell! This is the first time I’ve fought a boss with such bravery, and you fuckers run away first!" Well, I should run as well! A feeling of reluctance to fight suddenly overtook him, and there was little left to say with only him remaining. He leaped up, ready to flee. The knight by his side, however, was very cooperative, picked up his long spear, and charged towards Yinlingzi, seemingly trying to secure a slim chance of survival for him. But it was already too late. When encountering a tiger, there must always be someone to cushion its fall, and now he was that person. Although Yinlingzi was blocked by the knight, it did not stop it from casting spells. With a wave of its hand, a mass of sinister energy instantly enveloped Salted Fish’s entire body. Power of the Ghost King—Sinister Shadows Proliferate! Salted Fish saw the screen before his eyes turn black, and in an instant, the surroundings completely changed. No longer in the ancient tomb, he found himself in a terrifying scene where bones piled like mountains, blood flowed like seas, and corpses were strewn everywhere. In the sky was a bloody moon, and there were hundreds of ferocious evil ghosts all around, all level 99 monsters, clawing and surrounding him from all directions. Evil Ghost (Horror Nightmare): Level 99. Life Value 100. Salted Fish was startled, knowing this had to be some sort of illusion technique. How could a mere level 28 boss possibly summon such evil ghosts? He decided to ignore them and rushed towards the direction of the exit in his memory, leaping twice consecutively, only to suddenly hit an air wall and fall down. Salted Fish understood immediately that he had obviously hit a wall, invisible to his eyes. When he turned around again, the evil ghosts had already surrounded him from all sides. Don’t be afraid, it’s all an illusion! Salted Fish comforted himself inwardly, the next second an evil ghost grabbed him. -5! Fuck, isn’t it fake? Why am I losing blood? Groups of evil ghosts lunged to bite him, and his blood volume plunged rapidly! Watching his blood bar drop, Salted Fish could no longer care for much. Secret Technique—Wind Roll Cloud! He released his big move towards the hordes of lonely ghosts, with each sweep knocking down a swath of evil ghosts to the ground. After releasing five Wind Roll Clouds in one breath, when all the evil ghosts had been slain, the scene suddenly brightened, and he was back inside the ancient tomb—no evil ghosts around, and his blood volume clearly unchanged. However, he found himself stuck in a corner of the wall. Behind him, Yinlingzi had already taken care of the knight and was pouncing towards him. Secret Technique— System prompt: You lack Inner Strength. It turned out that he had exhausted all his inner strength with the consecutive big moves just now. Facing the Ghost King’s pounce, Salted Fish let out a cry of unwillingness. "Fuck! Fuck!" "Run!" Hearing that dreadful cry, those who were fleeing to the outside of the ancient tomb ran even more desperately. Thankfully, the safe areas on the floor of the mechanism passage had been marked when they had come in, so everyone fled along these marks. Some who couldn’t wait dashed to both sides, unfortunately triggering a trap and arrows rained down instantly, with two more unlucky souls shot to death on the spot. The person leading the way was about to reach the exit. Unexpectedly, there was a loud rumble, and some mechanism was triggered. "No good, it’s the Dragon-breaking Stone!" At the exit of the ancient tomb, a huge thick stone had sealed it shut. "Quick, break the Dragon-breaking Stone!" Several players who had arrived first immediately switched to hammers and axes and started furiously pounding on the stone door. A few strikes later, the durability bar of the Dragon-breaking Stone instantly appeared. 4945/5000. "It’s over, we won’t make it!" While smashing, the group thought in horror; with 5000 points of durability, it would take at least ten minutes to break through. It was like city defense armor; even a big hammer would only knock off a few points of durability, and ordinary swords were even less capable of breaking it. But from behind them came the shout of Dida La, "Move aside, watch me!" The crowd hurriedly made way, waiting for the Master of Magic to open the door. Five Elements Magic—Fiery Flame Magic Ball! First Stage Charge—Second Stage Charge—Three-stage Charge! Boom! A giant ball of fire blasted onto the Dragon-breaking Stone, instantly reducing more than 100 points of its durability. Indeed, the Master of Magic’s destruction power was impressive, yet it was still futile. With 5000 points of durability, it would take 50 Fiery Flame Magic Balls, and only those with a Three-stage Charge would work, which was not much faster than hacking away. (Damn it! If only I had majored in the Earth Element and minored in the Fire Element!) Dida La thought despairingly. There’s a spell in the Earth Element called Fossil to Mud that could turn the Dragon-breaking Stone into a fragile mud board, and then it could be easily shattered. But at this moment, they could only be trapped here. And from down the hall behind them, the creepy laughter of Yinlingzi could already be heard. "My two Daoist friends, why rush to leave? Why not offer your flesh and merge with me to ascend together? Wouldn’t that be wonderful?" Dida La clenched his teeth! "Bai Ze, looks like we have to go all out!" Yet Bai Ze gave an awkward smile, "Hehe, sorry about this, Dida La, but I’ve got to take off first." After saying that, he formed a magic formula, chanted a spell, and in an instant, his figure turned semi-transparent, then he directly passed through the Dragon-breaking Stone by wall penetration. "Damn, don’t go!" shouted Dida La, but Bai Ze’s figure was nowhere to be seen, and even on the voice chat there was only silence. Dida La could only look helplessly at the others around him. "Sorry, brothers, I’ve got to bail too." With that, he slapped a talisman onto his forehead and charged towards the Dragon-breaking Stone. However, with a thud, the moment his upper body passed through, he was bounced back out. Dammit, what’s going on?! Now Dida La was truly panicking. Even though it was all wall penetration, why could Bai Ze get through but not himself? Behind him, the fluctuating figure of Yinlingzi had already appeared at the other end of the tomb passageway. "Hehehe, this Ancient Tomb was constructed under my personal supervision; how could I allow you to leave so easily? When it was built, I specifically arranged an array on the tomb walls. How could an ordinary Wall Penetration Technique allow escape? Oh? Only this Daoist friend is left? Hehe, the Daoist skills of Xuanxu Palace are indeed exquisite, breaking through my array. Well, since it’s only this Daoist friend left, there’s no need to choose anymore." Dida La gritted his teeth, "Guys, hold him off for me, watch me take him down with one Big Move." However, after what had just happened, how could the others still trust Dida La? Seeing that the BOSS had set his sights on Dida La, nobody dared to stay, scattering and fleeing into the passageways on both sides. Dida La was furious in his heart, dammit! He finally felt a hint of despair, probably just like how Salted Fish felt earlier, damn it, it’s do or die! Five Elements Magic—Fiery Flame Magic! Boom, Dida La’s whole body burst into fierce flames, like a man on fire. This move could inflict damage on nearby enemies, hoping to repel the opponent and give himself a chance to launch the Big Move. Just as he was about to chant the spell, he saw Yinlingzi, utterly indifferent to the fierce flames swirling around him, charging at him with a sinister smile. ———————— Shengtun Lemon: Feng, help, quick, save me! Dream Loop: Feng, quickly find the Captain, if you don’t come save us, we’re going to be wiped out. Fierce Warrior: Feng, you’re not going to just watch us die, are you? Please save me, I’ll pay you whatever you want! Xiao Jie was chopping zombies when his private message box suddenly blew up. His heart sank. These guys, had they really run into trouble? He casually clicked on a player named Old Ship and asked. Hidden Moon Following Wind: What’s going on? Old Ship: A Ghost King popped out of the coffin, killed Salted Fish, the door’s been sealed shut, Bai Ze ran off, we’re all scattered, I’m hiding in a burial chamber scared out of my wits, you have to come save us, if you don’t, we’re going to be wiped out. Xiao Jie felt both relief and schadenfreude in his heart, glad that he hadn’t gone in—damn, these idiots didn’t listen to him, now they’re in trouble. As for whether to rescue them... "Captain!" he called out. "I already know." Hidden Dragon Do Not Use spoke in a deep voice, unsurprised. If Xiao Jie received a call for help, naturally, he would too. In fact, he had even more requests for help. "Shall we rescue them?" Xiao Jie asked with some hesitation. It’s not that he was heartless; if it really was the Ghost King BOSS, it would certainly be very powerful, and their group was all Physical, with limited damage to ghosts. The only two from the Magic System were already trapped inside; their arrival wouldn’t make much difference. What if he ended up sacrificing himself as well? "Of course, we should rescue them; after all, they’re also members of the Dragon Soaring Knights, and there are so many lives at stake. We should save whoever we can, we can’t just sit by and watch them die," Hidden Dragon Do Not Use declared decisively. He then said to the others, "Everyone, the Outer Circle is in crisis. I’ve decided to go save them. This isn’t an official operation nor a command; you can decide for yourselves whether or not to join. I’ll go ahead, anyone willing to save them, follow me; those who don’t want to, you may leave. There might be danger here later—Little White Dragon, contact the president and inform him of the situation here." After saying that, he rushed towards the second-floor passage. Xiao Jie was speechless for a moment; Hidden Dragon Do Not Use always claimed he didn’t want to take responsibility, but he really stepped up when it mattered! He himself had the thought to rescue them too, but he always had to consider the pros and cons, the risks involved. But looking at Hidden Dragon Do Not Use’s retreating figure, Xiao Jie clenched his teeth and dashed to follow. As he ran, he sent a private message to Ye Luo. Hidden Moon Following Wind: Ye Luo, how’re things on your end? Ye Luo: I’m fine, but it’s not looking good for the others. Sounds of scrambled footsteps echoed from behind, Xiao Jie and Hidden Dragon Do Not Use turned around to see that members of the Core Team had all followed, even the newbie Outer Circle members hadn’t been left behind. "Everyone!" Hidden Dragon Do Not Use wanted to say something more. But the crowd loudly interrupted, "No need to say more, Captain, we’ll follow you to the end!" "My brothers!" Hidden Dragon Do Not Use was deeply moved. Xiao Jie quickly said, "Let’s not get emotional now, if we don’t hurry, those guys are gonna be dead!" The group quickened their pace urgently. When they arrived at the Ancient Tomb Gate from the thief hole, they saw Bai Ze standing at the entrance, commanding the Heavenly Soldiers to break down the door. "What the hell, how did you get out? What about the others?" "I had no choice, man. That Ghost King can regenerate health, we couldn’t beat him, I didn’t even get paid, staying would’ve been death. The others are trapped inside." Xiao Jie thought to himself, mercenaries really can’t be relied on.
