103: Chapter 99: Wang Kai Died 103: Chapter 99: Wang Kai Died “No, I’m about to shoot the BOSS dead!”
I Want to Be Immortal released another arrow, having discovered the power of his “Full Moon Shooting” move, he felt the urge to solo the BOSS.
Unfortunately, with only Basic Bow Skill, it was difficult to hit the target from such a long distance, and moreover, Lin Yutian was already surrounded by zombies, so the arrow didn’t even graze the skin.
“Retreat quickly!
If we don’t, it’ll be too late!”
After speaking, Xiao Jie turned and ran along the village wall towards the eastern wall, and I Want to Be Immortal had no choice but to follow.
“Retreat, apprentice, don’t fall here!” Yang Baichuan also shouted, and at his signal, the militia began to retreat in two directions.
Xiao Jie and a few others were also mixed in, retreating along both sides of the village walls.
While running, Xiao Jie looked towards the line of fire he had set up.
By this ti, the flas had rapidly spread, igniting the entire U-shaped enclosure wall with fierce flas that reached the sky; even so of the houses on both sides started to catch fire.
As soon as the zombies poured through the gate, they hit the half-moon-shaped fire wall.
The soulless zombies, in their fury, had only increased their speed and desire to attack, but their health was still only around 50.
Driven mindlessly towards the sea of fire by the Corpse Chasing Mage, they were instantly turned into charred corpses in the flas, charging continuously in rows, and Xiao Jie saw system prompts crazily scrolling by.
System Prompt: You killed a soulless zombie using environntal damage, Experience Points 5!
System Prompt: You used environntal damage…
System Prompt: You…
System…
There were so many system prompts that Xiao Jie had to turn them off, focusing only on the experience bar.
Seeing the experience bar visibly increasing, Xiao Jie felt a surge of excitent.
Haha, this wave was absolutely thrilling.
Xiao Jie was extrely pleased with his plan at this point.
He had calculated that intelligent monsters were not easy to deal with, but soulless zombies and regular zombies were brainless.
The Corpse Chasing Mage couldn’t fight in person and could only drive the horde to charge, so naturally, they would rush forward even if it ant a mountain of knives or a sea of fire.
A mountain of knives was hard to manage, but a sea of fire was feasible.
Now it seed that the plan was a success.
An absolute heavy blow to the enemy.
As he ran, Xiao Jie’s body shone with a golden light as he levelled up.
Aweso!
He didn’t have ti to be happy, nor could he manage his attribute points; the monster attack on the village was not over yet.
The smaller monsters were just appetizers; the BOSS was the real feast.
Seeing that the appetizers were almost finished, it was ti to get ready for the main course.
By the ti Xiao Jie got to the east side of the village wall, he imdiately jumped down from the top of the wall and rushed to the central square of the village through the streets.
Although the fire wall was effective, with the horde continuing to charge forward and the Ghost General clearing the way, they finally broke through the fire wall facing them and headed towards the village interior.
Since no one was dealing with the fire walls on both sides, the zombie flanks kept being devoured by the flas, greatly weakening the horde’s impact.
When Xiao Jie and the others got to the square, they saw the villagers, along with the remaining militia, ford a line of defense and were resisting the zombie onslaught.
Thanks to Xiao Jie’s wave of a fire wall attack that burned hundreds of walking corpses, the zombie tide suffered heavy casualties, otherwise they definitely wouldn’t have been able to hold out.
Now, with everyone working together, they were still managing to hold on.
Scores of villagers and militia ford a defensive line, firmly blockading the entrance to the square from the village’s main street, fighting together against the zombies.
When Xiao Jie and the others, a group of more than twenty, arrived at the battlefield, they imdiately beca a fresh force.
Yang Baichuan shot down a zombie with an arrow and shouted, “Old Tie, can you still hold on?”
“Hmph, I won’t die even if you’re dead.” Tie Qianli used Breaking Army Sword Skill to chop down two zombies and responded loudly.
In fact, he had lost a third of his health in the brief encounter with the Ghost General just now, and was rely putting up a brave front.
“Haha, good to hear you’re not dead.
Cover !”
The archer militia began to arrange their shots, firing volleys at the breach.
Facing the close-at-hand horde, Xiao Jie simply switched to dual blades and began to harvest frenziedly.
The other players also switched to lee weapons and joined the battle.
Dongfang Sheng, wielding a long spear, took the opportunity to strike with a Long Spear Thrust, imdiately retreating right after, scared to get surrounded by monsters, always staying a pace behind the other villagers.
The advantage of the long spear was its reach, allowing him to poke at the enemies behind the NPCs without worry.
Xiao Jie didn’t play as safe, swinging his dual blades continuously into the horde.
With his 30 points of Agility, as long as he was slightly cautious, he had no threat from these walking corpses and zombies.
The mont he was about to get surrounded, a Helical Slash would instantly kill his way out while also reaping two heads.
Ye Luo was even more elusive, turning on Sword Dance and dishing out damage.
With added Inner Strength, the Flowing Cloud Sword Skill’s damage doubled, making slicing through the zombies as easy as chopping vegetables.
However, the most impressive performance at that mont wasn’t by Ye Luo, but I Want to Be Immortal.
He had donned a suit of iron armor and ard himself with a giant axe in one hand and a steel shield in the other, a veritable heavy tank.
In the thick of the zombies, he initiated an unstoppable rampage, relying on his extrely high defensive power and inherent toughness in his attacks; he completely ignored the zombies’ clawing and biting, not even needing to dodge.
Sweeping Strike!
Sweeping Strike!
And more Sweeping Strikes!
Each swing of his giant axe toppled a swath of zombies, and every Splitting Stone Slash brought down his enemies, a killing machine against these soulless zombies with just a few dozen health points.
With a flash of gold, I Want to Be Immortal also reached Level 9.
He hacked a path through the zombie horde with a few swings of his axe, ran out, drank a blood bottle to refill his health, and said excitedly, “Hahaha, this is so great!”
Just as he was about to turn back and continue the slaughter.
Xiao Jie called out, “Where’s your dog?”
I Want to Be Immortal suddenly froze, Scar?
Looking around, there was no sign of Scar.
Scar had been following him previously, and just now, they had been cutting through the zombies together, apparently falling in the lee.
It couldn’t be helped, Hunting Dogs were quite powerful as early-ga support in monster battles, but as the ga went on, they beca less useful, especially in chaotic lee like this.
Hunting Dogs simply didn’t have enough health, and could easily be killed if one wasn’t careful, after all, not every dog was as skilled at survival as Rou Qiu.
“Damn it, my dog’s dead again!” I Want to Be Immortal bellowed, charging once more into the corpse group.
“Don’t rush in too recklessly!
Don’t forget you’ve only got one life, and if you die, no one will be there to resurrect your brother,” Xiao Jie urgently cautioned.
It couldn’t be helped, this guy always got too carried away in a fight, and although he was well-equipped, he wasn’t invincible.
Plus, his high encumbrance ant he couldn’t even run away from a BOSS if he needed to.
Telling him not to rush in might not have worked, but as long as Xiao Jie brought up his brother, the guy would definitely calm down.
Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Jie shouted, I Want to Be Immortal imdiately pulled his punches.
This was a death ga for goodness sake!
Why the hell was I going all out?
He decisively stopped charging into the pile of monsters and instead made sure to maintain the sa battle line as everyone else, ensuring he wouldn’t get surrounded and killed.
Xiao Jie breathed a sigh of relief, thinking how much of a worrywart this kid was, then chopped down two walking corpses and quickly surveyed the battlefield.
Suddenly, a group of figures rapidly approaching from afar tightened his heart.
Not good, Corpse-eating Dogs!
About a dozen Corpse-eating Dogs had circled around to the right of the square, attacking towards the rear of the defensive line.
This was bad.
These Corpse-eating Dogs were much fiercer than the walking corpses, and these creatures could even self-destruct.
If a few of them detonated in the crowd, it would be disastrous.
“Quick, shoot the dogs!
Don’t let them get close!” Xiao Jie cried out, instantly switching to his bow and unleashing Continuous Arrows.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Four arrows consecutively hit the sa target, instantly killing one dog.
But the situation was too chaotic; hardly anyone could react in ti.
Fortunately, Yang Baichuan had been commanding the archers from behind, and he responded imdiately.
“Fire the arrows!
Stop them.”
As he spoke, he drew his bow and nocked an arrow.
Continuous Arrows—Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Four arrows took down two dogs, and a volley from the archers also took down two.
Just as the remaining Corpse-eating Dogs were about to break through, Yang Baichuan roared, “Black Tornado!”
“Woof!”
A roar sounded, and a large black dog, leading a pack of Hunting Dogs, charged out.
It was Yang Baichuan’s beloved pet, and accompanying it were seven or eight other Hunting Dogs, all trained by Yang Baichuan.
They collided head-on with the oncoming Corpse-eating Dogs, imdiately tearing into one another.
However, the Hunting Dogs were lower level and in the blink of an eye, several were injured or killed, relying only on their desperation to buy ti and create opportunities for their masters.
The archers took the chance to focus fire and shoot down the Corpse-eating Dogs.
Xiao Jie was also firing arrows frantically; he definitely didn’t dare to approach and chop at those creatures.
“Rou Qiu—go!” At this point, he couldn’t worry about sparing his pet; every unit was part of the combat power.
However, Rou Qiu seed to understand how dangerous the Corpse-eating Dogs were but didn’t dare defy Xiao Jie’s command, so it simply lunged toward a nearby walking corpse—after all, he was ordered to attack but had not specified the target.
It entangled itself with the walking corpse in a fiercely aggressive manner.
Xiao Jie ntally cursed, You really are a dog.
Another arrow flew.
His biggest fear still ca to pass, “Bang!” A Corpse-eating Dog, on the brink of death, suddenly exploded, spreading a cloud of poison mist.
Several Hunting Dogs in the vicinity were infected in an instant.
Now the Hunting Dogs stood even less of a chance, “Awoo!” A mournful howl rang out, and Black Tornado, affected by the corpse poison, was bitten on the neck by a Corpse-eating Dog, unable to move.
In an instant, it was torn apart by several Corpse-eating Dogs right there on the spot.
“Black Tornado!
No!”
Yang Baichuan’s eyes blazed red with rage, his body engulfed in red fury.
[System Notification: Your ally, Hunter Yang Baichuan, has entered a state of Fury.]
Yang Baichuan continuously fired his great bow, each arrow surely killing a monster.
His precise and fierce shooting was like a ballista, and though the furious state lasted only a few dozen seconds, it was enough to annihilate all the Corpse-eating Dogs.
Xiao Jie watched, inexplicably shaken, these NPCs in Ginkgo Village truly were hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
With the threat of the Corpse-eating Dogs gone, he too re-engaged in the frontline battle.
At this point, the front was still deadlocked.
The villagers could hold their defense but lacked the strength to counterattack, managing only to wear down the enemy gradually.
Although they had killed a large number of the corpse group, the villagers had also suffered many casualties.
As players, they had fought hard but would never engage in a life-threatening frenzy, always staying towards the rear of the team.
But these villagers didn’t have such thoughts, each fighting to their last breath.
One after another fell, beaten to death by the surrounding corpses.
Xiao Jie used a Helical Slash to cut down two walking corpses but bumped into Zhou Tong.
“Hey kid, have you seen my stupid apprentice, Wang Kai?
I saw him with you guys earlier, but as soon as the fighting started, he disappeared.”
“Wang Kai, he—”
Xiao Jie was about to brush him off with a couple of words when the image of Yang Baichuan’s godly rage suddenly ca to mind.
A thought struck him instantly.
If the death of a dog could trigger such fury, perhaps the death of an apprentice might have the sa effect.
His tone imdiately turned profoundly sorrowful.
“Wang Kai, he—died.”
