Chapter 799: Natural Emulation
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Dark Emperor, Prado’s body was composed of the Dark element. This meant that he could reduce 90% P-ATK and M-ATK damage and only Light Spell could inflict 200% damage on it.
Out of all the classes that players could choose in King of Pantheon, the only class that could use Light Spell was the Light Priest.
The Light Priest class was not an attack-type but a pure healbot. They were experts in healing and unleashing a few beneficial buffs. It was difficult to rely on them to fight monsters.
Although Light Spell could inflict 200% damage to the Dark Emperor, Prado, with the pathetic ATK a Light Priest had, even a 500% increase would not take off much HP.
Attacks from other classes would not do much to the Dark Emperor. Moreover, at the average level players were currently at, gathering a group of Light Priests was not feasible. The level gap was obvious. With Prado at Level 180, players lower than Level 170 would not be able to deal much damage.
Li Yi had contemplated this for some time before the Legendary Summoner, The Mountain came to mind.
Before The Mountain had yelled out Territory — Natural Emulation, he had always assumed that The Mountain would use the Natural Summoner’s Level 98 skill. It was only when he heard straight from the horse’s mouth that he knew, he was wrong...
Li Yi learned about the Level 98 skill from a lie that The Mountain told in his past life, He claimed that Natural Emulation was a special skill that Natural Summoners could learn at Level 98. Many people had been deceived by this false information.
Li Yi was one of them.
So Natural Emulation was a Natural Summoner’s Territory Skill, not some Level 98 skill. The so-called Level 98 skill was nonsense The Mountain had made up.
“No wonder he went ballistic when I talked about the Level 98 skill. I guess he’s told someone about it?”
Upon reflection, Li Yi thanked his lucky stars. The Mountain must have bragged to someone before or he would have been suspicious of Li Yi for talking about a Level 98 skill out of the blue...
A Natural Summoner’s Natural Emulation was quite impactful. Summoners with this move could emulate all lives formed by the elements.
The white beam that struck the Dark Emperor, Prado immediately bounced off and hit The Mountain instead. In a blink of an eye, The Mountain changed.
His body started to grow, and his appearance began to change. In mere seconds, another Dark Emperor, Prado, an exact copy of the original appeared.
Natural Emulation could imitate all forms of elemental life. As the Dark Emperor, Prado was a creature of the Dark element, it could be copied and transformed into by The Mountain.
In fact, The Mountain used this very move to defeat Deathwing. He emulated and transformed into Deathwing, using this form to blast the real Deathwing to death. Thus, clearing the dungeon.
With the copy a success, all of The Mountain’s attributes were the exact same as the Dark Emperor, Prado’s — HP, STR, appearance, and skills.
“Come out, Shieldmaiden, Valkyrie!”
Heeding The Mountain’s call, a Shieldmaiden riding on a white horse stepped out of a dark portal and appeared before him.
This was the Dark Emperor, Prado’s ultimate skill, Shieldmaiden Summon.
Back in ancient times, the Dark Emperor, Prado found a god’s corpse to make its puppet and that corpse was the Shieldmaiden, Valkyrie.
Valkyrie rode on a white horse, clad in silver armor from head to toe and armed with a silver spear. When she moved, the horse’s hooves would produce stars, creating a dazzling scene.
“Authority — Crush!’
Valkyrie raised her spear and charged at the real Prado. Her white horse neighed along as she, in body and weapon, pierced through the real Prado.
“Bp!”
[-167543676]
The penetration tore the real Prado’s body apart. It wasn’t long before it reassembled.
A spear of 160 million damage!
“True Overlord Arrow!”
“Bp! Bp!”
Meanwhile, Li Yi had placed Mislead on Alleria before drawing his hand for two rounds of True Overlord Arrows, placing all twenty-four King Puppets’ aggro onto her.
The Dark Emperor, Prado’s HP was as high as 3 billion and because it was immune to 90% P-ATK and M-ATK, they relied upon The Mountain’s Natural Emulation to take care of it. Li Yi’s duty was to stop the twenty-four King Puppets from disrupting The Mountain.
“Authority — Crush!”
The Shieldmaiden, Valkyrie clenched her silver spear tightly as she delivered one attack after another toward the real Prado.
The power she wielded was not Territory but a higher power that only a god possessed — Dimensional Authority!
Crush!
One spear attack on a locked-on target would ensure the target was crushed. Were it a normal body, a spear attack would result in instant death. However, the real Prado’s body was made of the Dark element.
When The Mountain summoned the Shieldmaiden, Valkyrie, the real Prado was still in stage one, where he would control the twenty-four King Puppets to do its bidding. It had not come to the stage where it would summon the Shieldmaiden, Valkyrie.
It was only after a dozen spears from Valkyrie the real Prado’s body began to change. The Dark element of its body expanded like dark clouds over the entire hall.
This was Prado’s second form. In this stage, its body would appear in Invincible mode as its summoned puppets to attack players. If the players were to come in contact with the dark cloud, they would also become a puppet until the end of the battle.
With the hall’s surface turning black, countless puppets crawled out of the ground, joining in the battle.
Giant Puppets, Dwarf Puppets, Human Puppets, Orc Puppets, Wolf Puppets, Bug Puppets... The puppet army, numbering in the hundreds, encircled the hall.
“Come out, puppet army!”
While The Mountain was transformed, any skill Prado could use, he could too. Hence, the moment Prado initiated Puppet Army Summon, he followed suit.
At the appearance of another puppet army into battle, it was a slaughter between the two puppet armies.
The aid of a large number of puppets lessened the pressure on Li Yi’s shoulders. Alleria even found the time to cast heals to recover HP.
“No wonder you specifically called for me. You really checked me out and saw through my bluff. Sigh, indeed, the walls have ears. I’m at a loss...”
Shaking his head, The Mountain ordered the puppets to attack.
Li Yi smiled without saying a word. He eased his attack, cautiously avoiding the surrounding dark clouds to avoid getting caught in them.
The Mountain became Prado, so he was unaffected by these things, but it was a different story for him. If he were to accidentally come across the dark clouds, he would turn into a puppet.
Courtesy of The Mountain, the originally super difficult second stage went by effortlessly. With several hundred puppets of equal ability fighting alongside and the Shieldmaiden’s help, the puppets summoned by the real Prado was quickly subdued.
After the puppets, excluding the twenty-four King Puppets, were cleared, Prado’s body began to reform, its HP had returned to the shocking 3 billion.
Thus, began the Shieldmaiden’s Crush Authority again. The real Prado summoned its own trump card, the Shieldmaiden, Valkyrie then.
It was a peculiar scene in the battle with The Mountain’s Shieldmaiden attacking the real Prado while the real Prado’s Shieldmaiden attacked The Mountain. The two Shieldmaidens took turns activating Crush. It was definitely a sight to witness...
Alleria’s HP was full by then and she went to kite the twenty-four King Puppets away from the real Prado.
If these twenty-four puppets were too close to the real Prado, the real Prado would recover HP rather quickly. Kiting them to a distance would prevent that situation from happening.
As a Manipulator, Prado was not equipped with any powerful skills. Unlike a Summoner, the way it attacked was pretty dull, as it was between summoning puppets and transforming into dark clouds.
The Shieldmaiden’s Crush Authority was straightforward but practical as one attack would wipe close to 200 million HP. Prado, with only 3 billion HP would not be able to survive for long against the Shieldmaiden’s attack even if it was capable of healing itself.
Soon, the battle came to an end.
From start to finish, it took 19 minutes!
The real Prado collapsed, prompting The Mountain, who had returned to his original form, to fall from the sky on his ass in an ungainly manner. He shrieked out of pain from the long fall.
The death of the Natural Emulation target would put a stop the state of Natural Emulation.
The twenty-four King Puppets collapsed in a disorderly manner. It was then that the Emperor Sword in his backpack flew out and floated above Prado’s corpse.
Li Yi was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Although there was a high chance in submission in group dungeons, the percentage was not a guaranteed 100%. He would be damned if it did not submit to his rule this time. He would have to wait another two weeks before he could clear the dungeon again.
Tst tst tst tst tst —
Just as Li Yi held his breath and waited with bated breath, Prado’s soul appeared and stared blankly at the Emperor Sword. It was in a daze for some time before kneeling to declare its loyalty.
Tst —
With the Dark Emperor Imprint emerging on the Emperor Sword, the sword then flew back to Li Yi’s hand.
This scene was not visible to The Mountain. Only those who had accepted the quest could witness it.
The Tomb of Kings’ first kill was achieved but The Mountain chose not to publish the information. He immediately cancelled the moment the System Notification popped out.
Compared to Li Yi’s love of flaunting every now and then, The Mountain seemed to keep a low profile.
He achieved a Hall of Fame record, obtained 50 Achievement Points, +10 Skill Points, and 20,000 Reputation Value for all major cities in Invincible Continent.
The Mountain scratched his head and asked Li Yi, “Is my part done here?”
Li Yi nodded.
Ding!
System Notification: [The Mountain has quit party.]
The Mountain waved his Orange Quality Quarterstaff at Li Yi. “The next time we meet may be a battle between us.”
Li Yi smiled. “You might not be my match.”
Due to his forceful exit from the party, The Mountain disappeared from the dungeon 10 seconds later.
Li Yi let out a long sigh before walking to Prado’s corpse. He extended his arm out to loot.
Ding!
