Chapter 122: Paralyzing State, Again!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Taking a deep breath, Li Yi gripped Deaths Descent in his hand tightly. The aura then coiled around him and spread throughout his body. This sword had given him a lot of courage and it proved itself time and time again that he could do it.
Deaths Descent made him have no fear. After this fight, he must strengthen it so that he could use it in the future when he levels up. He secretly made a promise in his heart to upgrade Deaths Descent.
Deaths Descent seemed to have sensed his intentions. The demonic aura that was originally lingering around his body became even more abundant, as if it was responding to Li Yi.
Li Yi’s eyes froze, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
“Hey buddy, are you excited too?”
After so many battles, Li Yi had grown attached to Deaths Descent. Unknowingly, Deaths Descent had also become more attuned to his needs.
Now that he was facing a hurdle in his life, Li Yi’s heart stopped for a bit. What he could not do in his previous life, he would do in this life.
“Everyone, are you ready? I’m going to attack. Stay in the formation that we’ve discussed.”
Li Yi stomped on the ground, flew up like a cannonball, and charged towards the boss!
“Charge!”
“-24,512! Block!”
He did not expect to be blocked once again. The Heroic Spirit once again used a strange movement technique to block Li Yi’s attack.
The Heroic Spirit’s eyes were fixated on Li Yi. The corners of its mouth were slightly open, as if mocking Li Yi for his feeble attempt of an attack.
The boss’s long spear trembled and quickly pointed at Li Yi’s body.
“Starlight’s?Blessing!”
Li Yi quickly turned sideways to avoid the attack.
His eyes were focused on the Heroic Spirit in front of him. The Heroic Spirit looked stunned as to how Li Yi avoided the attack.
The corners of Li Yi’s mouth slightly curled up
“Using the same moves against me is useless.”
Purple lightning in the boss’s eyes flashed widely, as he was expressing anger. Li Yi took this opportunity to grab onto his magic weapon and slash at the Heroic Spirit.
“Combo!”
“-30,301!”
“-59,330! Critical Hit!”
“-9,020! Block!”
“-2,340! Block!”
“... Block!”
After a few attacks, the Heroic Spirit returned to a defensive position. This reaction time was something even Li Yi could not compare himself to. This kind of reaction was difficult to achieve even for highly skilled players. After all, one would have to switch back from attacking to defending in an instant.
Whether it was reaction speed or body agility, the requirements to achieve such heights were very high.
The Heroic Spirit’s combat ability had increased by tons compared to the other dungeon.
Of course, this was expected of a veteran warrior, as long as there was an opportunity to attack, he must have the confidence to kill all in his path.
“Snow Chaser! Help me block his movements. Everyone, we must attack together. Be careful of the lightning around you.”
Hearing Li Yi’s instructions, Snow Chaser immediately went up to the Heroic Spirit and unleashed a barrage of Fireballs. The other Mages began to attack as well. Somehow, the lightning around the boss seemed to sense that he was being attacked from a distance. It then immediately moved and chased after Snow Chaser and the others.
Clutch King held Snow Chaser and started to dodge the lightning skillfully. After a few rounds of the lightning strikes, they were finally safe.
However, the others could not keep up with the lightning strikes. Many Mages were taken away by the lightning strikes, and in an instant, only half of the team from the ten were left.
Clutch King hid in a corner with Snow Chaser in his arms. Once they were safe, only then did he put Snow Chaser down.
“That was close.”
Clutch King looked ahead with a serious expression, but Snow Chaser’s face was a little red.
“Thank you.”
The tacit understanding between the two of them had improved, so there was no need to say anything else.
Very soon, the two of them returned to the battlefield. Snow Chaser helped her teammates recover, and Clutch King protected Snow Chaser from being struck by lightning again.
Li Yi could not waste the advantage that Snow Chaser and the others had created for him just now.
He activated his Invisibility and began his fight with the Heroic Spirit again.
The two of them fought back and forth. The collision of their weapons created bright sparks. A wide variety of attacks accompanied by deafening sounds of blows resounded around the hall.
Due to the bouts of lightning strikes, it was very difficult for the team members to get closer to Li Yi and the Heroic Spirit. Most of them could only rely on long-range attacks to assist Li Yi.
“-10,020! Block!”
“-9,340! Block!”
“... Block!”
The Heroic Spirit’s attacks landed on Li Yi’s body. Fortunately, he had armor. Otherwise, the damage would have been enough for him to be sent back to the Resurrection Point.
Li Yi endured the Heroic Spirit’s damage and used Raging Bood Roar. Finally, after many attempts, the Heroic Spirit received a short stun.
It was a good opportunity to strike him down. Li Yi raised his magic weapon and prepared to slash, but his body was immobilized by some kind of weird energy.
Li Yi was shocked.
“Sh*t!”
Li Yi recalled something that he had overlooked and was frustrated. He missed the optimal opportunity to attack as the Heroic Spirit woke up from his stunned state.
He raised his spear and sent Li Yi flying with purple lightning.
Li Yi was smashed into the wall!
“Bro, you good?!”
Clutch King and Snow Chaser rushed over to Li Yi’s side, and Snow Chaser hurriedly cast a Healing Spell on him.
“Woah, I’m fine.”
Li Yi fell to the ground and slowly got up.
“I was careless.”
Li Yi looked at his hands that had purple sparks of lightning, he recalled that the Heroic Spirit weapon had a paralyzing effect.
‘I was too careless to notice that detail.’ Li Yi, who has now been hit, slowly got up to check his condition as he thought to himself.
[System Notification: You are now affected by a paralysis attack. Agility reduced by 10%, paralysis status reduced by 10%.]
When a player gets hit by the paralysis status and receives the same attack later, the paralysis status would stack. After it gets fully stacked, the player would be completely paralyzed and unable to move.
This was the most troublesome part about this boss. It had been too long since he last fought this boss till he had forgotten about this setting.
During this period of time, Li Yi’s condition had been the best. All kinds of resistance and damage resistance had given him the confidence to be able to face these situations alone.
However, he had forgotten that his advantage came from his own HP, and his own resistance was not enough to contend with this boss.
It really was not right for him to mess up at such a crucial moment because of his own negligence. Li Yi looked at his team members who were still fighting back with all their might, but only half of them were still fighting back with all their might under the command of Sun Conqueror. Clutch King and Snow Chaser were more or less injured.
If Li Yi had not insisted on challenging this dungeon with them at level 25, they might have already been in the same boat as the others.
“Bro, you’re not alone, you still have us.”
“That’s right, we’re behind you in this Carefree Dream.”
Hearing Clutch King and Snow Chaser’s comforting words, a warm feeling spreaded?in Li Yi’s heart.
“Okay, I’m fine. Snow Chaser, up my HP. Let’s continue.”
“Clutch King, you’re with me this time. We’ll go fight him together.”
“Okay, bro.”
