You Might Die If I Cast My Healing Spell Novel - Chapter 181

181 The Forgotten Sinner (II)

“Do you need me to pay anything?”

Lin Ye shook his head, “No need for now.”

“If I need a large number of Bloodsouls to buy things, later on, you can give me some Bloodsouls as a reward.”

“If I have enough Bloodsoul, you don’t have to give me anything. I’ll bring you along for free.”

!!
Most of the excitement on Lingdang’s face disappeared, “Ah?”

“You only want Bloodsouls?”

“Don’t you want…?”

Lin Ye was confused at what she was trying to get.

“What?”

Lingdang’s face turned redder and redder.

“It’s nothing!”

“I suddenly remembered that there are still a few things that haven’t been dealt with!”

“I’ll be leaving first!”

“When you’re done scouting, come to the Qing Cult’s Holy Church to find me!”

After that, Lingdang quickly left, leaving Lin Ye standing there with a strange expression on his face as he looked at her slim back.

‘Huh?’

‘Is that lady really thinking that way?’

‘We’ve only been in contact for two to three days, right?’

‘However, to be honest, I was also quite curious if there was any reproductive isolation between humans and otherworld creatures and if they could make some strange driving posture like the black-robed public order squad.’

For example, a cat’s tail–

*Cough cough!*

After getting rid of the crazy idea in his mind, Lin Ye calmed down again. He took out the map that the silent witch gave him and focused on the “secret tunnel” marked on it.

As long as he used the secret passage, he could bypass most of the normal Bosses and directly kill the inheritance Bosses.

If not…

Before meeting the second inheritance Boss, Lin Ye had to fight at least three normal Bosses. He also had to run around the map for a long time, which wasted a lot of time on the road.

The Bloodsoul and rewards given by these three normal Bosses were not even as good as the rewards given by a secret land Boss in the later stages.

But…

There was a benefit to killing them.

That was to get the permanent buffs and passive aura that only worked here in Hive.

For example, faster HP recovery, increased physical attack power, increased Magic Defense, additional poison damage with every attack, reduced damage received by a certain amount, and more.

This gave rise to two styles of fighting.

The first one was the silent witch’s “speed push skill”. Basically, she could ignore the normal Bosses and go straight for the Boss. After killing all the inheritance Bosses, she would then leave the stage at lightning speed.

The second method was the “conventional method” that all Professionals in the lower planes would do. They would fight their way through step by step, get enough attribute points, gather a set of Hive-like exclusive equipment, and gather all of Hive-like exclusive buffs. Then, they would kill their way to the final secret dungeon Boss and complete the Hive-like dungeon.

The former was faster.

All he needed to do was to kill the eight inheritance Bosses, including the cursed one.

The latter was very slow.

But the process would be more stable than the former.

Furthermore, the effects of the area curse would continue to decrease. When a special secret land Boss was killed, the Hive-like area curse would completely disappear, never to appear again.

In the battle of the inheritance trial, the existence of area curses was completely different.

However…

The word “stable” referred to the fact that the challenger would have the “guarantee” to be able to defeat the Boss.

It was equivalent to a kick at the door.

In order to gain the acknowledgment of the Boss and defeat them without any injuries, even if you could get all the buffs and remove all the area curses, you would still not be able to pass the stage without any injuries.

This was the difference between the two.

If one has a poor Awakened Talent, bad skill set, and horrible agility attribute, it is not something that could be reversed by a little attribute bonus.

This was why challengers from advanced civilizations like the silent witch would never choose the second option. They would definitely be able to defeat the Inheritance Boss. The only question was whether they could defeat the other party without suffering any injuries.

Even if he was just a little bit away from achieving the condition of ‘no injuries…

They could also choose to commit suicide if they made a mistake. They could use a Statue-like item to resurrect themselves and kill the key normal Bosses. They could then take away the Buffs that were useful to them and start another inheritance trial.

This included the Cursemancer, who had a ‘Duel Invitation’.

They could also rely on the resurrection ability of the Portrait item to repeatedly challenge the trial.

It wasn’t like Lin Ye’s Duel Invitation, which could ignore the effects of the portrait item and instantly kill the opponent without giving them a chance to revive.

Hence,

Lin Ye’s current conclusion…

He would have to fight the second inheritance Boss first and figure out the opponent’s strength. After that, he would decide whether to use the ‘fast-push’ skill or the ‘conventional’ skill based on the difference in their combat power.

Following the directions on the Hive-like map, Lin Ye quickly found the secret tunnel hidden in the cave around the Hive-like town.

He walked along the dark tunnel in the cave and soon reached the innermost layer of the cave tunnel. There was nothing in front of him except for an uneven rock wall.

Normal people would see this as a dead end and would definitely go back.

However, there was actually a black portal that led directly to the sinner tower hidden behind the Rocky Mountain wall.

One only needed to pull out their weapon and swing it three times at the rocks to break the camouflage on the surface and reveal the true body of the black portal.

‘The f*ck?’

‘There was no hint or guidance at all?’

‘Who could have expected this? I wouldn’t have even known if it wasn’t for that witch!’

After complaining, Lin Ye decisively pulled out his blade, Hidden Moon, and waved it at the mountain wall three times. He shot out that black portal and then plunged into the portal.

Thump!

Begin teleportation!

…

[Secret Region: Sinner Tower]

[Monster level: level 10 – 12]

[Regional Curse: Dark Environment (this is a dark environment without any light. You can barely see your surroundings. You need to cast illumination spells and other methods to see your surroundings clearly.)]

[Revival Point: Front gate of the tower.]

…

With the system notification, Lin Ye opened his eyes and realized that he was in a dark environment. He could barely see the silhouette of the things around him, and he couldn’t see anything that was far away.

‘Ha.’

‘It was just a dark environment.’

‘I’ve long expected that there would be such a secret plane instance in the netherworld.’

So, his backpack was full of lighting props.

As he thought about it, Lin Ye opened his backpack, took out a light bomb, and threw it on the floor in front of him.

After falling to the ground, the light bomb exploded instantly. Countless Firefly-like white silver powder flew out from it and floated into the air.

Then, the silver powder glowed brighter and brighter until it illuminated the entire Sinner Tower.

Lin Ye immediately started to observe his surroundings.

This was a tower-like building that was more than ten meters tall. All the walls, floors, and ceilings were black and very simple and unadorned. There were no unnecessary decorations or carvings.

Other than the door behind Lin Ye, there were no other exits or stairs. It looked like a closed large arena.

‘The Sinner Tower?’

‘Sounds like a prison for prisoners.’

As he was thinking, the space in front of him suddenly distorted. A huge figure seemed to step through the void and gradually appeared in front of Lin Ye. The figure raised the big sword in his hand.

…

[Name: Forgotten Sinner (Dark Great Swordsman)]

[Level: Lv 12]

[Qualification: Platinum ★]

[Skills: Invisibility, Blend into the Darkness, Dark Power, Lunar Eclipse, Dark Sword Aura]

[Description: Wearing an Iron Mask on his head, his four limbs bound by heavy iron chains. He could easily cut off the chains with the greatsword in his hand, but for some reason, he was willing to stay in the abandoned Sinner Tower, gradually becoming a forgotten dust in history.]

…

“Hehe.”

“I’ve been waiting here for so long.”

“Finally,”

“A suitable person has appeared.”

“Well then, let me see what kind of ability you, a guy who has been recognized by the Cursemancer have!”

Then, the Forgotten Sinner suddenly raised his greatsword and cut off the heavy chains binding him. Then, like a hunting leopard, he charged towards Lin Ye, who was still in a daze.

[Prompt: The forgotten sinner has been freed from his restraints! All his attributes had increased greatly! [Dark Force effect has been activated!]

[Dark Force (Passive): Convert all your normal attacks into a special skill that causes dark-type damage. The original calculation method of normal attacks will be changed to the calculation method of skill damage.]

Lin Ye didn’t utter a word.

‘No way!’

‘Why are you the same as the Hex Teacher?’

‘Could it be that these Inheritance Bosses that were in Hive had skills attached to their normal attacks? Furthermore, were they passive skills that could not be deactivated?’

‘Huh?’

‘Then wouldn’t I be killing randomly?’
