Chapter 463 The Appearance of a Legendary Boss

A few minutes ago, just as Ogre Prince Rocca had been thinking his plans were about to succeed, he had let his guard down. Consequently, Lin Jie had quietly inched towards the Alonum Ore Bottle that was the height of a man.

‘Princess Herya, you needed the water in this bottle?’ Lin Jie asked softly. He had taken a liking to the Mermaid Princess. Putting her extraordinary beauty aside, she had given him a priceless Mystic Skill Book. If he could help the Mermaid Princess regain her original state and capture the Sea Mage, he could even strike a relationship with the Poseidon Shrine.

During the time where the Mermaid Princess became Lin Jie’s follower, she had never once made any sound. Other than summoning the Naga Shield Soldier whenever Lin Jie was in danger, she did not appear either.

‘Yes, brave Warrior. Please go closer.’ The Mermaid Princess’ thoughts were transferred into Lin Jie’s head. ‘I need the Water Source Essence to recover my strength. However, with your current ability, you cannot go searching for the water source in the vast and dangerous ocean. But now, I’m feeling the Water Source Essence’ taste.’

Lin Jie was overjoyed. As he listened to the Ogre Prince’s monologue on the background story of the Munjo Underground City, he slowly moved closer towards the bottle. When he was approaching it, the air suddenly became humid. Droplets of water condensed on Lin Jie’s armor like the early morning rain. It was lovely.

“Haaaah…” Lin Jie opened his mouth and took a deep breath, sucking in the water vapor in the air. There was a sweet taste in his mouth, and his throat felt refreshed. It was a comfortable feeling, even more, amazing thane expensive alcoholic beverages! He could not resist taking in a few more gulps.

‘This is… Morning Dew! It’s the pure water source that existed before the land of The New Age got corrupted. It’s very beneficial for us mermaids, but it went extinct. Who knew it would be found here!’ Mermaid Princess Herya exclaimed in happiness. She then realized that her sudden outburst was inappropriate and immediately shut her mouth. She said softly, ‘Brave Warrior, I’ll be absorbing the Morning Dew now to regain my strength. Please divert his attention. Be careful.’

Lin Jie raised his eyebrows in surprise. Not only was Herya beautiful with a euphonious voice, but she was also even caring. ‘What perfect girlfriend material! If Ziliang sees her, what would he think…’ Lin Jie then shook his head, getting rid of all these random thoughts before heading towards the mural.

The mural was four yards wide, with eight pictures carved into it! Each one of them depicted the Wind Rider Sword Saint’s Anti-Slash. While they looked similar, each one of them captured a different footstep, stance, and even angle of the sword—this was Anti-Slash’s true core! Being able to portray such a precise picture of Wind Rider Sword Saint’s technique, one could see that the designer of The New Age was well-informed on sword techniques.

If a unique master swordsman, like Character Z, were to see this, they could even be able to learn a new technique.

But in the eyes of the “unrefined” Lin Jie, this was nothing much. All he heard was a system prompt message, indicating the change in Anti-Slash.

—’You have activated the special effect of Anti-Slash: Active!’

Active: You gain an Active Point for every 10 Combo Attacks, and each point can be used to reset the cooldown of Anti-Slash!

“Hahahaha! I see, the follow-up action of Anti-Slash cannot be canceled by operation at all, and the only way to cancel it is with Anti-Slash itself. With this, I can reach 99 combos! The remaining secret should be held by Rocca!”

Lin Jie squinted his eyes. If he was right, the last secret should be within the [Wind Rider Sword Saint’s Training Handbook]! He would be able to get it after killing the Ogre Prince!

Presently, the Ogre Prince was wearing the Munjo crown and in an insane mode! He lashed out with his right hand and sent out a Wind Rider Blade Aura filled with destruction energy, shattering the armor shelf into pieces instantly. The armors flying everywhere in the air were crushed into a huge ball by his powerful energy, forming a huge purplish-black armor! At the same time, the hundreds of Dark Gold weapons on the weapon shelf were swept up into the air, combined together, and formed a huge giant axe!

“Demigod, give me your strength!” The Ogre Prince cackled. With a slash of the giant axe, an “Axe Aura” was sent out that stretched as far as a river. It instantly tore the body of the Demigod apart. Then, he grabbed the Demigod and ate it bloodily.

The Ogre Prince’s body expanded as the Demigod’s strength ran wild inside in him. Suddenly, there was a loud burst. Holes appeared on his body as he exploded. The power from the Demigod was too great, and he could not contain it.

Bang! Bang!

In the treasure vault, a few of the Alonum Ore Bottles began to explode and shatter. All of the potions and pills turned into energy sources, which rushed towards the Ogre Prince’s wounds, healing him and increasing his strength! The holes on his body closed at a visible speed, but a small wound was left behind.

All the precious items in the treasure vault were materials for the Ogre Prince to increase his strength! He continued to absorb the Demigod’s power, and when his body could no longer take it, he would devour the items in the treasure vault to heal himself.

After 10 minutes, the Ogre Prince had increased in size by three folds. He was close to bursting through the treasure vault! The Barbarian Demigod that was long dead was unrecognizable after being eaten by him, without a single drop of blood left.

“Haha… hahahaha!”

The Ogre Prince laughed. He flicked his powerful fingers, and a wave of energy shot out like a cannon, instantly smashing through the wall and forming a bottomless hole. He turned to Lin Jie and smirked, the muscles on his brain pulsating.

“The Wind Rider Sword Saint is going to die… You are going to die too! Come on, you will be the first meal of Munjo Ogres’ return to dominate the world!”

[Ogre Prince Rocca] (Legendary Boss)

Level: 60

Health Points: 70,000,000

Attack: 3,947-6,836

Defense: 2,100

Special Feature: Devour! (Ogre can recover health by devouring any item)

“F*ck, legendary? 70,000,000 HP?” Lin Jie’s eyes grew wide in shock. He actually ran into a Legendary Boss while doing missions alone! ‘System, are you really messing with me like this?’

Lin Jie subconsciously took out a Random Teleportation Scroll and prepared to escape! No matter how strong Lin Jie was, it was impossible to fight against a Legendary Boss!

On top of that, the Ogre Prince’s health far exceeded his imagination at 70,000,000!

In truth, this was also due to Lin Jie himself. Had he learned the lesson from the battle with the Munjo Prophet and destroyed all of the pills the moment he had stepped into the map, Rocca would not be able to strengthen himself and would only have 1/3 of his current health.

“Wait, wait, calm down. Calm down!” Lin Jie was breathing heavily. He felt the earthquake-like tremors whenever the Boss took a step but tried to calm himself down, and all sorts of thoughts popped up in his mind.

‘One, I have not learned Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes, and there is no guarantee that I can enter Blade Peak Canyon a second time. The last key is definitely on this Boss!’

‘Two, Herya is absorbing the Morning Dew. As of now, she will die permanently when killed, just like the Zerg Queen. If I escape alone, not only will she be unable to regain her strength, she may also be killed!’

‘God damn it!’ All the downsides were not boosting his confidence! Lin Jie smiled helplessly and shut his eyes. When he opened them again, he became extremely determined.

Actually, Lin Jie only needed one reason! If he killed the Boss, he would be able to get the entire treasure vault! Although half of it was already taken by Rocca to strengthen himself, there was still a great amount of treasure left!

‘I can’t leave when the treasures are right in front of me.’ Lin Jie licked his lips. He was no longer afraid! ‘So what if it’s a Legendary Boss? Since it appeared in a solo mission, there must be a way to kill it! On top of that, the mermaid princess is here to aid me, I can do this!’

A Legendary Boss, also known as a Legendary, was not something a normal player could ever encounter in his life! The Ogre Prince waved his arm, and a fan-shaped Wind Rider Blade Aura descended like waves, covering a radius of up to 40 yards! This was a distance that could only be achieved by a Mage’s AOE skill! Furthermore, this was only a normal attack for this Legendary Boss.

‘Attack radius of 40 yards, enough to cover an entire team and high damage that can instakill. Undefeated Anger and Dark Chaotic Hole can hold it off for a few seconds, and nothing more.’ Lin Jie observed and analyzed carefully.

‘However, a fan-shaped Blade Aura has 4 blind spots. When Rocca swings his attack, there is an obvious delay, which is probably caused by the few bleeding holes. These wounds were caused by the energy exploding within him, and Rocca cannot control it. Seems like the biggest breakthrough lies in this point! Furthermore, this map is a place to test combo attacks. Along with the settings and murals within the dungeon, the way to kill him is clear.’

‘A few bleeding holes can cause a huge amount of Bleeding Damage. This damage should be enough of a threat for the Boss. The trigger condition should be to complete 99 Consecutive Strikes! Then, relying on the undestroyed parts of the building in the treasure vault, I will trap and crush Rocca. This should be the only way for low-level players to defeat the much higher-level Legendary Boss.”

‘But… it’s way too risky! The terrain, combos, and positioning must all be accurate. I can’t guarantee I will succeed.’

Just as Lin Jie was pondering, the Mermaid Princess was done absorbing Morning Dew. She regained consciousness, and a phantom image appeared.

Ding~

—”Your follower, Mermaid Princess Herya, has enhanced your Mystic Skill Book. [Water Beast Summon] transformed into [Heart of Mermaid], allowing you to summon Mermaid Princess Herya to battle for you for 5 minutes, with a cooldown time of 24 hours! When you use the right channeling materials, you can extend the time for the Mermaid Princess to be summoned!”

A layer of fog covered the icon of Water Beast Summon. It then slowly dissipated, revealing a glowing mermaid icon!

Lin Jie checked the Mermaid Princess’ skills, and he immediately gained a boost of confidence!

It would be difficult to kill Rocca using normal methods. But now… Lin Jie smirked as a bottle of yellow potion appeared in his hand. It was the [Inferior Poisonous Phoenix Dragon’s Tail Poison] that he had obtained from the Shadow Kill’s Grim Reaper, Tomorrow Night. It could cause a target to suffer 150 points of damage per second and reduce their health recovery rate to 0, until death!

In theory, with determination, Lin Jie could even kill Atlas Peak’s Demigod!

Lin Jie laced his Broken Blade with the poison and roared, activating Sea Scaly Armor! He channeled 99% of his health into it. After all, there was no difference whether he had full health or low health in the face of a Legendary Boss. It would be best to increase his stats to the maximum!

“Who knew that I, Lin Jie, would be hunting a Legendary Boss! Hahaha!”

In the Munjo Treasure Room, there was a long heroic cry as Lin Jie roared, charging straight at the Legendary Ogre Prince!
