Chapter 416: Critical Danger

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The reason why Lin Jie spent so much effort to enter the Hero-Level was to first obtain the reward of “Whole Team’s Skill Point +1” for the first clear of all Hero-Levels, and secondly was the special items dropped in the Hero-Level.

The stronger the monster, the higher the drop-rate, which was the common rule in The New Age.

Such as killing Sea Mage Laney in his complete state, not only would the complete “Sea Condensing Spell”, which Lin Jie had learned, would be dropped, one would even be able to obtain the various special items of the Poseidon Shrine, which included the fragments of Sub-Legendary equipment, mission clues, and so on. Meanwhile, the reward for killing the weakened state of Sea Mage Laney would be tens of times worse than killing him in his complete state.

Killing the Boss under Hero-Level would not only cause it to drop equipment with attributes 10% to 30% higher than Normal-Level, but there were also chances of dropping special items. The Savage Horse Mount was one of them. That was the only normal way to obtain a Battle Mount before Level 50 that one would be allowed to ride and battle.

However, Lin Jie had no thought of picking it up as the battle with Mona was reaching the crucial stage!

The Normal-Level Mona would only have 200,000 health points after entering the sixth stage, but the Hero-Level Mona would have Immunity to damage in the fifth stage. Therefore, starting from the sixth stage, Mona would have a total of 400,000 health points!

“Dispel evil and protect justice, I am the king of the Knighthood!” Mona stood firm with his head raised and took off his mask, entering the battle mode. The attacking method of the Boss in the sixth stage was no different from a Warrior, he may no longer be allowed to ride a mount, but his ability was even more powerful.

Clang!

The Knight’s long spear split into four and stabbed into the wasteland, gathering to form four intersection points that let out Holy Light. When players got close to it, their speed would be decreased by 40% while the Boss’ damage would increase by 40% when he was nearby the spear, and the effects were allowed to be stacked.

Mona thought he was the king of the Knighthood after being brainwashed, so he believed it so deeply he was unable to break away from it. To put it in simpler terms, that was he over-fantasized about himself! The Boss in the sixth stage would enter the Mad status where a type of Royal Blessing would be enhanced every 10 minutes, so he got stronger as he battled. The longer the fight continued, the more powerful the battling powers of the Boss.

What was more dangerous was the players that died now: The Heavenly Shield, Netherblue, Red Dust, and Star Kill were all unable to be revived. Also, everyone had started to show their exhaustion from the long Boss fight, and the mana of the Healing jobs was less than 10%. If this went on, the MT would not receive support from the Healers and would easily be killed by the Boss.

Lin Jie waved his hand and shouted, “Drink the superior-grade magic potion!”

The superior-grade magic potion he meant was the modified Mana Restoration Potion that Seven Ears had made. The effects were different from the normal Magic Potion that directly recovered one’s mana, but the effects were: Increase one’s basic Mana Recovery by 25 every second for 10 minutes. For every 1% of Mana lost, one’s Mana Recovery speed would increase by 1.5%.

Once the superior-grade magic potion was drunk, the mana of the Healing jobs and Magical jobs increased rapidly. As long as they kept their mana around 15%, the mana recovery from the superior-grade magic potion would totally be enough to cover for the consumption of mana in channeling spells.

“Inksnow, Breathless, take turns tanking. No.1 and No.3, each of you focus on one tank and only dispel the bleeding debuff! Camel, you be on standby with bandages,” commanded Lin Jie loudly while he used the Life-Steal of the Bloody Demonic Ring to recover the lost health points. Now, Bu Yi had to put full focus on the MTs, so she did not have enough energy to heal Lin Jie.

After Mona entered the sixth stage, his attributes increased greatly, but the attacking method changed from AOE to single-target attacks. Don’t think that would reduce the difficulty of killing the Boss, but instead, the pressure on everyone increased more than two times!

Every time the Boss received damage, it would temporarily trigger the “Indomitable” effect, which would reduce 12% damage and increase attack by 20%, the effects of Indomitable would disappear after an attack. One should know that the Flat Cut damage of the Boss now was over 3,000 points. Once more than 3 Indomitable were stacked, the MT would most definitely die, and no one else would be able to tank the Boss’ damage.

Meanwhile, Mona’s attacks had an additional 30% chance of bleeding, which decreased 100 points of the maximum health points every second, and it lasted for 3 seconds.

If one got hit by it several times, their maximum health points would decrease greatly. The bleeding skill could be dispelled the moment it appeared, but the health points that were reduced could not be recovered. The only item that could recover one’s maximum health points was only the Middle-Grade Bandage that was created by “Demology”. It recovered 20 points of maximum health points every second, and its effect lasted for 5 seconds. It just barely offset 1 second of the bleeding effect.

Bang—

-3,281!

Mixed Breathless was hit by the Boss’ Flat Cut, his health bar decreased rapidly and dropped by more than half in the blink of an eye. Immediately after, a spear sliced his shoulder and blood was spilled from the injury, bleeding was activated!

“Divine spell, Healing!” I’m No. 1 hurriedly activated the divine spell to dispel the bleeding, but the upper limit of Mixed Breathless’ health points still decreased by 100 units. Lost Camel quickly bandaged Mixed Breathless, helping him to recover the upper limit of his health points.

Meanwhile, there were only three people who could actually attack the Boss: Lin Jie, Fat Cattle, and Wantless! However, they also had to use explosive skills such as Shield Cut, which could deal high damage. Although Army Obliteration had high damage, Lin Jie could not use it as if Tough was stacked 4 times, then the MT would be killed instantly.

Fat Cattle used Pyroblast while Wantless used Arcane Imitation to copy Pyroblast. They aimed for the 1-second space between the Boss’ attacks to deal the maximum output. Meanwhile, the others were arranged by Lin Jie to be on standby at where the four broken parts of the spear were.

Inksnow and Mixed Breathless’ health points fluctuated up and down like riding a roller coaster. Everyone could not help but always be on tenterhooks, worrying that once the MT died, the whole team would be wiped out! Lin Jie also felt lucky that he had pulled Inksnow in or else The Heavenly Shield would not have lasted, it would have been even harder to clear Mona.

-3,048!

-3,126!

Mona’s damage dealt was still formidably high, even if both Shield Specialists activated all kinds of Damage Immunity skills, the damage dealt to them was still 3,000+, showing the powerful strength of Shield Specialists’ high defensive powers. If Mona’s attack landed on Lin Jie, the damage dealt would be scarily high, at least over 4,500.

Therefore, no matter how strong an individual was, they would never be able to replace the whole team.

The two MTs cooperated flawlessly and even had a feeling of “like knows like” as they took the damage for each other and controlled the Boss’ aggro to them precisely. ‘When you can’t take the damage, I’ll tank; When I can’t take the damage, you’ll tank!’ The two of them both felt at ease, which was an unprecedented feeling.

“This team is not bad,” Inksnow could not help but say. Although Triumphant Midnight’s elite team was also very powerful, as compared to Savage Blade, where elites were picked from tens of thousands of players, Triumphant Midnight would seem to be much weaker.

Just at that moment, Mona’s body trembled as an aura knocked Inksnow and Mixed Breathless away into the air!

The second skill: Royal Forward Charge! Mona would activate Forward Charge towards all enemy targets, and whenever it hit its target, its next attack would be increased by 50% of basic damage—the skill lasted until Mona had used Forward Charge towards all people. If the Forward Charge hit consecutively, then from the seventh person onwards, they would basically be killed instantly.

How the Boss’ Forward Charge decided its target was by distance, the Boss would target players who were nearer first.

“Line up in a line!” shouted Lin Jie.

Wantless used Flash and appeared in the front, Fat Cattle behind him while Lin Jie stood in third place. The two MTs were the fourth and fifth people in the line, instantly forming a line for Forward Charge.

The Boss charged towards Wantless and stabbed his long spear forward, dealing 1,000 points of damage. He did not stop at all, and his spear pierced through Fat Cattle’s body. Immediately after was Lin Jie, Inksnow, and Mixed Breathless... Stabbing all the way, its speed also increased to the maximum. The sixth person was Bu Yi, who had stood at one of the four intersection points.

“With my power, dispel the evil!” shouted Mona as he charged towards Bu Yi vigorously.

Bu Yi dodged just at the right time with a light step to the side.

Mona’s charging speed was too fast, so he was unable to change his directions at that moment and banged onto the broken spear. He entered the stunned state, which lasted for 6 seconds.

Royal Forward Charge had wiped out countless teams as the teams struggled to clear Mona before the method of letting Mona bang into the broken spear was invented!

As the players would have debuff from the broken spear, everyone stayed away from it as a result. Once Mona activated Forward Charge, besides the nearest six people, the others would naturally die from the damage. That was the system testing the players’ ability to make use of clues.

Lin Jie’s eyes lit up, and he immediately started to attack crazily. In just six seconds, Mona’s health points decreased by 70,000!

Guiding Mona to collide into the broken spear was the only way to interrupt the Forward Charge. However, it must be in a straight line, or else the colliding force would not be enough to stun Mona but increase his Attack Power by 40% instead.

Mona, who recovered from his stunned state, stabbed the two hateful Shield Specialists as he fumed with rage before turning his attention and focusing on Lin Jie!

“F*ck...” Lin Jie was shocked.

Hero-level Mona would randomly trigger Forward Charge during battle and lock on the target, which was the unit with the highest damage output, naturally being it was Lin Jie!

In an instant, Mona had disappeared, and in the air, one could smell the disgusting burnt scent that was scorching hot. Those were the flames formed from the friction between the air and the overly high speed of Mona’s Forward Charge. A Fireball with roaring flames instantly appeared in front of Lin Jie as though a meteor had fallen from the sky!

“Jie, you are the main damage dealer, you can’t die!”

Just at that moment, the Mechanical Gargoyle descended from the sky and spread out its wings, protecting Lin Jie, who was behind it. However, in the next second, Lin Jie received the prompt message: “Innocent Killer has temporarily transferred the ownership of the Mechanical Gargoyle to you”. Then, the Mechanical Gargoyle disappeared, and Zheng Ziliang appeared in front of Lin Jie.

Contract Summoner skill: Switch Teleport!

Boom—

-4,857!

Zheng Ziliang’s head drooped down as he had become a corpse.

‘Lin Jie is the person with the highest attack damage output, he is the core of the team. I am just a Contract Summoner, I can die, he can’t!’

Heaven Plume was deep in thought as he stood at the intersection point, dying in dungeons would also result in loss of experience points and may even drop equipment. In his team, there were even embarrassing situations such as picking up and not returning the equipment of teammates that died, since everyone had an axe to grind.

Was this the difference between teams? Savage Blade was worthy of its name!

Zheng Ziliang’s death allowed Lin Jie to survive.

However, misfortunes never came single—Mona’s Forward Charge was randomly triggered so after killing Zheng Ziliang, Mona charged forward yet again, He was so close to Lin Jie that the latter was about to die instantly!

Ding~

—’The Mermaid Princess has digested the Blood Pearl, her level has increased to 20. The favorability of Herya The Mermaid Princess towards you has grown by 150, your Sea Riding skill has leveled up.’

—’Your skill [Water Beast Summon] can be used.’

“Summoned Beast•Sea Riding Skill!”

“F*ck, I am forever unlucky and only lucky for an instant, but ha, just the right moment!” Lin Jie was elated.

In the nick of time, a vigorous flow of water surged out from Lin Jie’s right hand!

Dragon’s head, snake’s scales, fishtail, and four limbs as large as the hands of a giant. A Naga Shield Soldier in deep blue thick and heavy armor held a huge shield and protected Lin Jie!

Naga Shield Soldier (Elite)!
