Disastrous Necromancer

Chapter 119 - I Am The Meat Shield; It Turns Out That You Can Fight Like This

Chapter 119

Ning Yiyi was quite compliant for some reason.

Standing on the tall outwall, you can only see a rough figure of Lin Moyu.

Ning Yiyi launched her skill, greatly enhancing her eyesight.

“I finally can see things clearly.” She chuckled and sat down.

She wanted to take out something to eat. However, with the storage space being sealed out, she can’t take out anything.

She dug in her pockets and finally fished out a sweet potato.

“I fortunately had this prepared beforehand.” Ning Yiyi carefully peeled the sweet potato and ate it in small bites.

If Lin Moyu were here, he would have realized that this is a sweet potato he gave her.

Ning Yiyi unexpectedly had kept it until now.

Thankfully, with the storage space, there is no need to worry about food being spoiled.

At this time, Lin Moyu has already set up a combat formation.

With the previous experience, his approach has become much more refined.

The Skeletal Mages stood in a circle along the square, surrounding the Outpost Guardian in the center.

The Skeletal Warriors were put away.

Lin Moyu stood in front of the stone statue, the Bone Armor wrapped around him, not worried at all.

After having reached level 23, the Bone Armor’s defense was enhanced once again.

With Bone Armor’s 69,000 points of physical defense, even if he stands still in front of the Outpost Guardian, it will take a long time to defeat him.

The stone statue vibrated, causing the stone shell to crack and fall off.

Booming sounds rose in the square. The fortress trembled.

Seeing Lin Moyu put away the Skeletal Warriors, Ning Yiyi became even more curious, “Why did he put away the Skeletal Warriors?”

She believes that Lin Moyu can overcome hell rank difficulty; this doesn’t change anything.

She is just curious, as if a curious baby.

When the Outpost Guardian revived, Lin Moyu’s palm ignited with Soul Blaze, and he attacked the other party’s soul directly.

The Skeletal Mages started at the same time as Lin Moyu, and magic attacks rained down on the Outpost Guardian.

The Outpost Guardian let out a miserable cry, then faced the sky and roared.

Lin Moyu pressed his palm down, and red light filled the sky.

All of a sudden, a red chain pattern appeared on top of the Outpost Guardian’s head, and the roar cut off and became intermittent.

Slowing Curse affects every action.

Immediately after, white light appeared on the Outpost Guardian, weakening the power of Slowing Curse, restoring its speed significantly.

Lin Moyu felt that Slowing Curse has been weakened by several times.

At this time, the monster is being slow down by three to four times at most, which makes quite the contrast when juxtaposed with the skill’s 34.5-fold slowing.

The Outpost Guardian broke out with thunderous vibrations and erupted with light from all over its body.

Skill: AOE Knockback.

Lin Moyu remained still. With the Bone Armor’s protection, the skill’s knockback effect wasn’t triggered.

The Outpost Guardian flew into a rage, bellowed madly, and leaped high into the air.

The large blade in its hands fell with a loud bang.

“Ah!” Ning Yiyi — standing on the outwall — let out a cry of surprise.

Lin Moyu didn’t dodge. If it were someone else instead, the blade, which is much larger than a person, would have smashed them into mincemeat.

The Bone Armor shone brightly, blocking the large blade. Lin Moyu was unharmed.

The skill AOE Stun also failed to trigger its effect.

At this moment, a group of skeletons appeared beside the Outpost Guardian.

Their number wasn’t large — about 20.

However, as soon as they appeared, they unleashed their skill.

Skill: Berserk Strike!

Accompanied by red light, large blades fell on the Outpost Guardian.

The Outpost Guardian’s scales ruptured, and it unleashed miserable cries.

Soul Blaze rose incessantly.

Soul Blaze is Lin Moyu’s most powerful single target offensive skill, and it hasn’t disappointed him so far.

It is much more powerful than the Skeletal Mages’ skills.

When the Skeletal Warriors’ skill terminated, they frenziedly brandished their blades.

After 10 seconds, the cooldown period of the Outpost Guardian’s skills ended, and it unleashed it once again.

At the moment it unleashed its skills, Lin Moyu retrieved the Skeletal Warriors.

Once its skills passed, a group of Skeletal Warriors appeared again.

The number was still 20, but it was another batch, a brand-new batch that hadn’t used their skill yet.

They unleashed their skill and caused a wave of damage.

When the Outpost Guardian activated its skills, the skeletons disappeared once more.

Ning Yiyi was stunned.

It turns out that bosses can be fought like this, that Mages can also serve as meat shields, that summoning can be so flexible, that the Bone Armor has such strong defense.

Ning Yiyi’s eyes narrowed into crescent moons and sparkled with starlight, fully focused on Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu repeated this tactic again and again.

This time’s boss raid is much more efficient than last time.

After just 10 minutes, the seemingly powerful Outpost Guardian died at Lin Moyu’s hands.

[Killed Outpost Guardian, EXP +1,650,000]

[Obtained gold rank weapon: Hell Outpost Magical Sword]

[Obtained gold rank protective equipment: Hell Outpost Magical Robe]

[Obtained gold rank accessory: Hell Outpost Ring]

[Obtained Dragonkind core x2]

[Ning Yiyi obtained awakening certificate]

[Hell Outpost Magical Sword (a part of the outpost set): gold rank weapon, all attributes +500, increases the power of Mage-type skills by 50%, usable after level 30]

[Hell Outpost Magical Robe (a part of the outpost set): gold rank protective equipment, all attributes +300, reduces the consumption of Mage-type skills by 50%, usable after level 30]

[Hell Outpost Ring (a part of the outpost set): gold rank accessory, all attributes +100, increases the recovery of fatigue by 30%, usable after level 30]

[Dragonkind core: an extremely rare material that can be used to make various items]

Upon seeing the attributes of the magical sword and magical robe, Lin Moyu felt that he can replace the spirit set with the hell outpost set after level 30.

Although the Mage-type bonuses aren’t of much use to him, but the attribute buffs are tremendous, much higher than those of the spirit set.

Ning Yiyi jumped off the outwall with a swish, ran toward Lin Moyu, and plunged into his arms.

“What’s the matter?” Lin Moyu was bewildered.

Ning Yiyi exclaimed happily, “Awakening certificate, I got an awakening certificate.”

“Isn’t it guaranteed to drop?”

Lin Moyu was baffled. Why would she be so excited about an item that is guaranteed to drop in the hell rank dungeon?

Realizing that she was overexcited, Ning Yiyi quickly let go of Lin Moyu, took two steps back, and lowered her head, face blushing.

Ning Yiyi promptly changed topics, “Although it’s guaranteed to drop, but it’s not that simple.”

“For example, to raid a hell rank dungeon, as few as 12 people or as many as 18 or even 24 people are required.”

“However, only one awakening certificate will drop per raid, and it is randomly assigned to a person who doesn’t have an awakening certificate yet.”

“That is to say, if it’s a fixed party of 12, in order for everyone to obtain an awakening certificate, they will have to raid the dungeon 12 times.”

“If it’s a party of 18, they will have to raid the dungeon 18 times…”

“Raiding a hell rank dungeon is both tiring and dangerous, and you have to raid it 10-plus times; that’s insane.”

“Obtaining the awakening certificate is the most difficult step when it comes to achieving the second awakening, and countless people are stuck here.”

Lin Moyu thought of the academy’s dungeon mission, where students have to go through the large-scale dungeon Tyrant Desert. Many people were stuck at this mission as well.

The two seem quite similar in this aspect.

Lin Moyu didn’t dwell on it. Since the boss was dead, the dungeon restrictions were lifted.

He took out the Hell Outpost Dagger and handed it to Bai Yiyi, “Here you go.”
