Chapter 900: The Monster with Over 30,000 HP

Facing this situation, the clone hesitated a little, but apparently his chaotic mind had begun to wake up. Even though the power of the neuralyzer was very formidable, it had been quite a while so it was about time for its effect to come to an end.

The remnant of his combat awareness slowly emerged. He no longer instinctively and single-mindedly lock on to Sheyan as the main attacking target. He started to calculate whether attacking Sheyan was worth it. The illusion of the clone and his dark gold leech could only cause 1 damage to Sheyan due to 'Stronghold', while the clone could attack Sheyan once every 1.5 seconds to cause 20-30 damage points without weapons. The damage per second was approximately 15+1+1 = 17 points.

Sheyan's maximum HP was close to 3,500. It would only take around 220 seconds to empty his HP!

(TN note: Author can't math)

The calculation showed that attacking the non-retaliating Sheyan was more cost-effective than attacking his dark gold leech.

Therefore, the clone focused fire on Sheyan without hesitation. Using the life of his summoned creature in exchange for putting the target in a critical state - he would win in this trade no matter what!

However, the clone forgot something.

He forgot a cruel fact.

Sheyan did one thing before this, and that was to bury his wife in the ground - no, to bury four bottles of genetical-extract mixes in the ground. It's about time for harvest.

At the place where the mixes were buried, a large amount of soil suddenly rose. It was originally the size of a small mound, but it continued to rise rapidly into a 7-8 square meter grave. The grass that originally grew lush on top of the mound withered and turned into black ashes, scattering onto the soil.

The black ashes did not disappear, but slowly gathered together to form some mysterious, twisted black words. They stuck to the soil like insects. It was very mysterious, and very strange.

Then, cracks began to appear on the huge grave, and the black mysterious words flashed and floated in the air.

Next, a hand with bulging bones and green veins as thick as small snakes stretched out of the ground. There was a thick layer of snake scales on its surface. The hand pushed the ground hard and a large amount of dirt flew as a burly figure jumped out of the grave.

Based on his build, he was definitely an Uruk-hai, but his skin had a layer of thin scales that glowed with light. His mouth protruded and had a strange cleft palate, revealing a thin, split tongue red in colour. He looked a bit like a snakeman.

The creature held a snake-like magic staff in his left hand. The top of the staff was engraved with what seemed to be two gemstones, but they would blink once in a while! They seemed to be living things!

The black glowing words floating in the air flew towards the staff. This creature was a very special existence. It was grown from the extract of a kind of sea snakes that lived in the cold climate of high latitudes zones. Sheyan got a few of them from the London Zoo.

The name of the grown creature was "Snakeoid Uruk-hai (Elite)". His attack leaned towards ice damage with an accompanying speed reduction property. He was the secret weapon carefully selected by Sheyan for this battle.

The Snakeoid Uruk-hai roared furiously towards the sky. Sheyan took one look at him and laid down his orders. The Uruk-hai lifted his staff, and the staff proceeded to glow with a black light. After about three seconds of chanting, an piece of ice that emitted white smoke shot out from the staff towards the dark gold leech summoned by the clone!

The force of this attack was quite astonishing.

It should be noted that the basic blueprint of Sheyan's grown creature was an elite Uruk-hai, whose attack power and HP were quite considerable.

In terms of combat strength, an Uruk-hai could single-handedly kill at least ten half orcs, while an elite Uruk-hai could kill around 3 Uruk-hais. The elite Uruk-hai's combat strength was at least equal to a normal, fully-armed Growth Hunter. And that was not counting the special ability given to it by Sheyan's mix.

The ice hit the 0 defense dark gold leech and caused a staggering damage of 744!

That number looked abnormally high, but if you think about it, the attack was a spell that needed a three-second cast time. It carried a risk of being interrupted. Therefore, the high damage was quite reasonable.

A thin layer of frost emerged on the body surface of the dark gold leech. When the leech moved, it would make a creaking sound like a warrior wearing full body heavy armour. Its movement speed got even slower.

The addition of the Snakeoid Uruk-hai and the high frequency at which 'Saruman's Gaze' was triggered caused the DPS of Sheyan's side to rise to about 250! The time it would take to get rid of the dark gold leech had suddenly shortened!

The clone obviously felt a sense of crisis. Once his dark gold leech was killed, he would be at an absolute disadvantage in speed! He would fall into a very awkward situation! ! !

Therefore, the clone immediately changed his offensive target. He gave up on Sheyan who only had half his HP left, and started to attack the dark gold leech summoned by Sheyan instead.

The theoretical weaponless attack power of the clone was 120-150 points, but he had a 1.5-second attack interval. The attack power of his illusion was 36-45 points, and the attack power of his summoned dark gold leech was 60-75 points. Therefore, the total damage caused by the clone's side was slightly higher than Sheyan's side. However, they did not have 'Saruman's Gaze', and their attributes were reduced in the gene-curse cloud. Therefore, in actual combat, their damage output was merely equal to Sheyan's side.

However, when they started to focus fire on Sheyan's dark gold leech, Sheyan instructed the leech to employ the guerilla tactic of continuously hitting and running. He also instructed his illusion to stop attacking and to concentrate on blocking and parrying the clone's attacks. He could also act as a human shield and block attacks with his body if necessary. The Snakeoid Uruk-hai would keep attacking the opponent's dark gold leech with spells.

Sheyan's side was only slowed down by 50% by the opponent's dark gold leech, while the other party were slowed down by an additional 40% in the gene-curse cloud. Add to that the slowing effect from the Snakeoid Uruk-hai's attacks, the opponents found it difficult to even move.

The clone's side also had their attacks on the dark gold leech hindered by the interference of Sheyan's illusion, while the dark gold leech kept trying to sneakily run away even with the 50% reduction in speed. This made the clone side's attacking frequency pathetically low.

After nearly two minutes, the dark gold leech summoned by the clone swelled up like a balloon. It kept getting bigger and bigger until it burst into a rain of blood. It was finally killed!

Sheyan's pupil shrank. That's because at the moment, his own dark gold leech still had more than 16,000 HP left! This situation had actually exceeded the best-case scenario he expected, mainly because he got lucky with the Snakeoid Uruk-hai. It was actually born with a special ability: 'HP to MP conversion'.

'HP to MP conversion', like its name implied, was the ability to convert HP into MP. The Uruk-hais had an incredible amount of HP to begin with; even a mage had a HP of nearly 5,000 points. Sheyan could also specify one base attribute of the Uruk-hai to gain a bonus of 50% of his own attribute! It meant that the Uruk-hai received an additional 1700 HP from Sheyan! (TN note: refer to Chapter 873 Perfect reward)

No wonder the guy kept throwing spells like it was free!

Now, Sheyan ordered the Snakeoid Uruk-hai to target the clone. In this way, even if the dark gold leech did not attack, the clone would be slowed down by both the ice spells and the gene-curse cloud. In this state, he would never catch up to the dark gold leech.

Only the illusion of the clone could attack the dark gold leech now, but he only had 30% of the clone's attack power. To finish the dark gold leech's 16,000 HP under the interference of Sheyan's illusion was indeed a very difficult task.

It was then that the clone's most insane, most terrifying aspect showed itself.

He was a monster with over 30,000 HP!

Before this, Sheyan gave it a lot of thought, and finally decided to take off his Zergling Armour and leave it with Jinkuang. The reason was that although the armour could provide the mage-type Grown Creature with considerable MP regen, it also came with the mighty 'Zergling Rush' attack. Sheyan had to do everything possible to reduce the attack power of the clone, so naturally, he couldn't make such a mistake.

The Snakeoid Uruk-hai's HP had finally bottomed out. His MP was also completely exhausted.

Sheyan mercilessly ordered him to attack the clone physically. After he died, the other two genetical-extract mixes planted by Sheyan had also hatched.

This time, Sheyan did not intend to hatch an elite Uruk-hai. The two genetical-extract mixes contained the genes of cuttlefish. The two ordinary Uruk-hais grown from them somewhat resembled Davy Jones.
