Chapter 143: Blood Fiend, Guardian
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Just as they were standing in the air, a blood-red ferocious head the size of a small mountain slowly emerged from the Blood Sea.
“That’s the Blood Fiend! Everyone, attack it from afar! Don’t let its blood touch you!”
The young monk beside Zhou Chen said loudly. He was forming hand seals as he spoke.
The swordsman standing on the flying sword had already used his sword arts. Sword lights shot towards the demon head, creating gashes on its blood-red face.
The Taoist-robed youth’s attack was a little slow. He was holding a talisman in his hand and chanting as he approached the Blood Fiend.
‘I have to show something too.’ Zhou Chen, as a person who focused on close combat, felt a little awkward at this moment. The others had already prepared for the fight. Only he and the woman were hiding in the monk’s golden light shield.
However, the golden light barrier was approaching the Blood Fiend. Zhou Chen could launch some attacks.
Roar!
The Blood Fiend launched a counterattack at this moment. It opened its ugly mouth and roared. The Blood Sea began to surge wildly, and bubbles rose into the sky.
“My golden light shield can’t hold on much longer…”
The moment the Blood Fiend unleashed its might, the young monk was the first to feel the effect. As for the swordsman and the Taoist-robed young man, they were also affected by the large number of blood bubbles that floated in the sky and were unable to attack with all their might as they had to dodge the blood bubbles.
“If you have any methods, quickly use them!” The young monk was struggling to hold on and was starting to feel the strain. The golden light barrier he used became slightly dim, and he reminded Zhou Chen and the veiled woman not to slack off.
“Get me closer to that thing,” Seeing that the monk was not pretending, Zhou Chen immediately asked him to move the golden light shield closer to the Blood Fiend because his long-range ability was breathing fire, and its range was limited.
As soon as Zhou Chen finished speaking, he felt the golden light shield begin to move faster towards the Blood Fiend.
When he was close enough, he spat out flames that enveloped the Blood Fiend.
The veiled woman beside him waved her hand and scattered a few strange flower petals at the huge demon.
After their attacks and the young monk’s golden seal struck the Blood Fiend, its body, which had been damaged by the swordsman and the Taoist-robed young man’s talismans, immediately became more severely damaged. It showed signs of collapse, but it did not completely collapse.
“Just a little more…” Zhou Chen knew that they were just one step away from defeating the Blood Fiend. There was not much fire energy left in his body, so he could only use other methods to attack.
“Holy Light!”
Zhou Chen first used the Holy Light that he had not used for a long time, hoping that this ability that was specialized in dealing with evil creatures would have some effect on the Blood Fiend. Then, he took out a bottle of potion and threw it at the Blood Fiend.
This bottle of potion was an explosive potion he had bought in the previous dungeon world. At that time, he had only bought it because he had too much money. Now, this potion was finally useful.
The Blood Fiend finally dissipated, and the Blood Sea also disappeared with it. The five of them realized that they were standing on a stone platform.
There was a bottle of pills on the stone table. Beside the pills was a white door of light.
Zhou Chen looked at the pills which were marked by the system.
[Blood Essence Pill
After eating this pill, all your attributes will increase by 1.
Note: You can only eat one Blood Essence Pill in your lifetime. Eating more will only bring harm.]
“There are five… Blood Essence Pills. Let’s each have one,” The young monk picked up the bottle under the gazes of the other four people. He took a glance inside and began to split the pills.
Zhou Chen swallowed the pill immediately. He felt a wave of heat surge through his body, making him feel like his body had become stronger.
‘The things in this White Jade Capital are really good. This Blood Essence Pill can match the attribute gains from at least ten Survival missions.’ Zhou Chen immediately felt that it had been a very good choice to come to this place. Just this Blood Essence Pill was enough to make this trip worth it.
After getting the Blood Essence Pills, everyone quickly walked through the door and began the next test.
This time, their opponent was also a huge creature, but they were in a huge hall now. Their opponent was a humanoid puppet that was ten meters tall and covered in bronze.
“This should be the guardian puppet of the White Jade Capital’s treasure vault. As long as we defeat it, we can get closer to our goal!” The young monk charged at the bronze puppet and punched it with the Vajra Fist.
His fist collided with the three-story tall puppet, but he was the one to be sent flying.
“This puppet’s defense is too strong. Benefactor Liu, we need your help,” The monk looked at the swordsman. The guardian puppet did not even budge from his punch.
The swordsman did not answer him, but he had already begun to use his sword art. Sword light formed around him and shot towards the huge puppet that was walking over step by step.
After this attack, marks instantly appeared on the body of the huge puppet, but the expression of the swordsman was a little unsightly when he saw this because he realized that the damage he dealt was almost insignificant. He might die of exhaustion before he destroys the puppet.
“Let me try too,” The Taoist-robed young man who had been observing for a while took out a talisman. After chanting a few words, the talisman automatically flew towards the puppet. Then, there was a thunderclap, and a violent lightning strike struck the puppet.
The effect of the lightning strike was more obvious. The puppet’s body became slightly charred, making everyone focus their hopes on this Taoist-robed youth.
However, the young man shook his head, “This is my only Lightning Strike Talisman.”
Seeing this, they looked at Zhou Chen and the veiled woman who had yet to make a move.
“My flower poison is definitely useless against it. I can at most use vines to restrain it,” The veiled woman shook her head, indicating that she was powerless.
“I should be able to deal with it,” When they looked at him, Zhou Chen immediately expressed his thoughts. “But it will waste a lot of time. Everyone, please help.”
Zhou Chen observed the large puppet for a while and determined that he was better suited to dealing with this iron dummy due to the passive skills of Rebound and Brutal Strike.
With that said, he charged at the huge puppet and faced its huge fist.
