Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge - Chapter 148

Chapter 148: Chapter 148: The Bosses Who Run When They Can’t Win

Watching Lao Tie brutally deliver his “Iron Fist of Love,” Zi Liyuan felt a moment of silence for the two Demon Wolves, and then two “Death Arrows,” one after the other, pierced straight into the mouth of the same Demon Wolf.

The LV15 “Death Arrows,” dealing 1.64M+ damage, instantly killed the Demon Wolf with 3M+ HP, virtually annihilating one-tenth of its total health in one go.

But that was merely the beginning; what followed was the Necromancer’s signature high-damage single-target ability “Bone Spear,” dealing over 800K+ damage, which was also considerably hefty.

These LV80 Lord Bosses had a total HP of around 20M, and Zi Liyuan’s three abilities had obliterated about a fifth of that.

Lao Tie, not to be outdone, had spikes on his Iron Fists of Love, which tore and ripped through the flesh, punching out bloody holes.

Lao Tie’s attack frequency was extremely fast, and the raw power behind each punch was equally terrifying. Combined with the spiked attacks on his back, his damage per second could reach over 90K+.

Damage per second wasn’t the most frightening thing; rather, it was Lao Tie’s overwhelming strength that had the two Demon Wolves pinned to the ground, hammering away. They couldn’t manage to get up, let alone turn over.

In one minute of control time, Zi Liyuan’s three waves of spell damage had taken nearly half the total HP of the same Lord Boss, while Lao Tie’s one minute of output had also caused over 5.4M+ damage to the Demon Wolf.

One could say that from full health to barely anything left, a LV80 Lord Boss experienced nearly 16M+ of its health bar evaporate in just a minute, beaten into submission by Lao Tie and laying on the ground without the will to struggle.

As for the other Demon Wolf, still pinned down with its head under control, it felt as if a mountain pressed down on its back, utterly powerless to struggle to its feet.

Before the controlled burrowing sandworm and Demon Wolf Boss could break free, walls of bones sprouted from the ground on all sides, containing the recently liberated sandworm within them again.

As for the Demon Wolf that had just broken free from the illusion, before it could recover, the alluring and bewitching visage of the Spider Queen filled its mind.

The Queen’s charm, once again, plunged this Demon Wolf Boss into 15 seconds of intoxication.

Fifteen seconds flew by in the blink of an eye, but waiting for the controlled Demon Wolf Boss was another casting of “Temptation.”

Another long 15 seconds of control, during which the Lord Boss turned on its own kind, began ferociously biting the Demon Wolf that was already worn down to a sliver of health.

Output, control, output, control; the pattern cycled methodically, and the first LV80 Demon Wolf Boss was ultimately hammered to death by Lao Tie.

The newly controlled and struggling Demon Wolf then took the place of its fallen comrade, with Lao Tie holding its head down, pushing it to the ground with the same loving caresses.

Meanwhile, the finally freed burrowing sandworm, whining and roaring, dared not approach and even showed signs of fleeing.

“Thinking of running? That won’t do!”

Endless streams of Skeleton Warriors, like ants, swarmed towards the Lord Boss, primarily to delay.

Whenever the sandworm tried to burrow underground, the Skeleton Horde employed various tricks to drag it out, even if it meant being crushed to pieces, just to prevent it from escaping into the earth.

Without regard for casualties, the sandworm became overwhelmed; it was surrounded by a dense sea of Skeleton Warriors, effectively becoming a white ocean of bones, unable to break free from the encirclement of the Skeleton Sea no matter how hard it struggled.

In the vast battlefield, 1,600 Soul Necromancers, relying on the “Death Withering” spell, cleared the field of numerous minions and then dragged hordes of Skeleton Warriors to besiege the Bosses.

To hasten the pace of the battle, Zi Liyuan stopped experimenting with his newly acquired equipment abilities and went all out with his firepower.

All sorts of curses and support spells were cast, boosting Lao Tie’s output capacity to the maximum.

What was originally just over 90k damage per second instantly doubled, reaching a terrifying 180k+.

The two Demon Wolves, powerless to resist, had no other fate but to be hammered to death by Lao Tie. It was just a matter of dying sooner or later by a few minutes.

As for the burrowing sand worm, the Lord Boss, from the moment it witnessed the first Demon Wolf’s tragic demise, it was bent on fleeing the battlefield. However, it was blocked by the Skeleton Sea, which cut off its escape route, forcefully keeping it there.

In less than six minutes, the four Lord Bosses who desired to ‘capture the king first to capture the thieves’ met their unwilling end before Zi Liyuan. Their bodies, riddled with stab wounds, were also bagged and stowed into the Spatial Backpack.

“Not a bad haul.”

The loot from the level 80 Lord Boss seemed a bit meager, not even a single silver piece of equipment dropped, but a silver hero-quality monster egg did!

“So whatever monster dies, drops its eggs.”

Having collected three hero-quality Demon Wolf eggs and a sand worm egg, Zi Liyuan felt that the favor owed could not only be repaid in full but that the others would still be indebted to him.

“I wonder if there’s a way to make monster eggs fuse and mutate. If I could get an Emperor-grade egg and contract it, wouldn’t I become invincible?”

Glancing at Lao Tie and then at his own talents, Zi Liyuan felt a surge of excitement. Since skills could fuse and mutate, why couldn’t pet eggs do the same?

“First, I need to collect more high-quality eggs. When I get back, I’ll ask Uncle Wang. If that doesn’t work, once I join the Dragon Academy, I can ask the teachers there.”

With his mind made up, Zi Liyuan began leading the Skeleton Horde, bit by bit, to clear their way toward the battlefield of the Spider Queen.

In nearly ten minutes, the Spider Queen, facing six Lord Bosses alone, had shaved off 10 million of its 30 million health points, whilst the six Lord Bosses, though injured, were not in much trouble, each maintaining a healthy level of health.

Zi Liyuan discovered that if he used the Spirit to control the summoned Spider Queen, it would act as if devoid of any intelligence, a pure killing machine with only the concept of brute force in its mind.

The bosses with their intelligence online completely outmaneuvered it.

As the Skeleton Army drew near, the frequency of the six Lord Bosses’ attacks on the Spider Queen drastically increased.

But alas, due to the disparity in templates and strength, and despite their level advantage, it was unrealistic for them to kill the Spider Queen in a short amount of time.

So, when Zi Liyuan arrived nearby with Lao Tie, the four mobile attacking bosses, without a word, turned and fled.

As for the two Lord Bosses serving as meat shields, they too wanted to flee, but the Spider Queen stopped them.

With two scythe-like arms, it hooked the two bosses, one on each side, and then six long spider legs pierced into the bodies of the bosses, forcefully pinning them in place, leaving them no chance to escape.

“Interesting, they run but don’t leave. Instead, they linger around a kilometer away. Are they waiting for more Lord Bosses to refresh and then continue to gang up for a sneak attack?”

Under the perception of the Spirit, the four fleeing Lord Bosses, using the sea of surrounding monsters to camouflage themselves, lurked a kilometer away from him.
