Chapter 56: Kill the Boss, Complete the God Severing Token!
Li Yi’s Combo and Heavy Strike caused a huge amount of damage to the Yin Scorpion King.
The Yin Scorpion King cried out in pain from the sudden attack.
A pair of huge pincers that were as strong as armor then gave off a pitch-black metallic clipping sound. The Yin Scorpion King’s steel-like pincers then smashed fiercely towards Li Yi with intense hatred.
Li Yi gave the Scorpion King a cold glance and easily twisted the pincers in a zigzag pattern.
“Boom!!”
The giant pincers smashed deep into the ground with a loud sound, almost as if it was stuck.
Li Yi’s eyes lit up. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the magic weapon in his hand was constantly flashing with black and golden light, as if it was waiting for this very moment of slip up. He aimed at the vital points of the Yin Scorpion King; backhanded with Combo and Heavy Strike as extra damage.
“-2,304! Weak Point Damage!”
“-3,876! Weak Point Damage!”
“-4,291! Critical Hit!”
Li Yi raised his sword and slashed down with a flurry of attacks. In an instant, the health of the Yin Scorpion King was rapidly reduced.
“-21!”
“-159!”
Li Yi used his shield to block the Yin Scorpion King’s pincers. As he launched his attack, he took a look at his health.
“Charge!”
“11,231!”
After blocking the Yin Scorpion King’s pincers, Li Yi immediately seized the opportunity to use his Charge skill.
With a bang, the Yin Scorpion King was knocked back a few steps. Immediately after, the Yin Scorpion King’s body emitted a scarlet glow.
Right then, Li Yi knew that its HP had already fallen below 10%.
Li Yi’s eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly took a few steps back.
The Yin Scorpion King roared angrily from the assault. Its pair of barbell-sized eyes emitted a violent red glow. Suddenly, its already huge body doubled in size!
Li Yi frowned slightly and whispered, “It’s going to go berserk.”
He retreated at a further distance again. At this moment, Li Yi felt as though that he had the worst luck in the world.
The Yin Scorpion King was not a special type. Therefore, the probability of it going berserk was actually really low. However, not only did this Boss go berserk, but he had encountered Bosses going berserk one too many times to call it a coincidence. So Li Yi really did think that he had the worst luck!
“Roar!!!”
An earth-shattering roar rang throughout the area, causing Li Yi’s eardrums to be pricked.
The Yin Scorpion King’s pitch-black carapace was now dyed with a faint scarlet color. It turned its head to look at Li Yi and raised its stinger. Its tail was suspended above, and dark green poison dripped from the sharp ends.
“Sizzle…”
The violent poison corroded the contacted ground and emitted billowing smoke.
Li Yi’s gaze turned sharp. From the rich experience he had in his previous life, he could understand that the Yin Scorpion King’s tail was extremely dangerous. If he was pricked by it, it may lead to him compromising his safety.
The Yin Scorpion King’s tail, which was emitting a sharp scarlet aura, began to spin rapidly, creating a hurricane. While the tail spun, the eyes of the Yin Scorpion King stared straight at Li Yi.
Seeing this action, Li Yi held the weapon in his hand tighter. His expression turned serious as he carefully observed the Scorpion King’s actions.
He guessed that the Scorpion King’s HP was very low at the moment, and his Raging Blood Roar and Charge were still on cooldown.
Therefore, he needed to carefully observe the Scorpion King’s movements to make a prediction and avoid the attacks.
This was the basic skill of any old player. Li Yi was a Demigod Berserker in his previous life, and this skill had long been honed to perfection.
The Scorpion King’s spinning tail came to a halt.
“Woosh!!”
A violent wind-breaking sound rang out, and a black-red light shot towards Li Yi at a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to comprehend.
Fortunately, Li Yi had prepared for this. The moment the Yin Scorpion King stopped, Li Yi started moving.
“Bang!!”
“-161!”
The stringer that carried the violent poison heavily struck the shield, when it came into contact with the shield, its friction burst into flames.
The enormous force pressed down half of Li Yi’s body.
Li Yi roared angrily, and he suddenly gained the energy to exert force to lift up!
The tail of the Yin Scorpion King was repelled by him in an ingenious when Li Yi defended himself successfully!
At this moment, the opening in front of the Yin Scorpion King opened up!
Li Yi naturally would not let go of such an opportunity. He took large steps forward and with the movement speed provided by his equipment, he quickly arrived in front of the Yin Scorpion King.
The eyes of the Yin Scorpion King shone with bright red light. A pair of large pincers that were as hard as steel swung down mercilessly at Li Yi.
Li Yi laughed coldly. Without even looking at it, he evaded the attack and took a step closer.
The black-gold aura that was wrapped around the magic weapon in his hand whistled as it rushed towards the Scorpion King’s vital points.
“Critical Hit!”
“Ding!!” The sound of metal clashing against metal rang out.
“-21,102! Critical Hit!”
The number that was displayed on the Scorpion King’s head was quite a large sum. After it let out a shrill scream, it collapsed to the ground and turned into specks of light before dissipating.
[System Notification: You have killed Level 16 Scorpion King (Boss). Obtained 30,000 experience points.]
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 700 HP, 7 HP Recovery/second]
As the system notification sounded, Li Yi’s body flashed with a blinding light.
“I’ve leveled up. As expected, the experience gained from fighting a Boss would always be much more.
“Thank goodness that the Boss’s berserk skills were not as scary as I thought it would’ve been.”
Li Yi said casually. Although, he did realize that the attack of the venomous Scorpion King after the berserk skill had directly hit his body, and this resulted in half of his HP being deducted.
However, this kind of skill was still too weak. To a player like him, it was basically child’s play.
Li Yi walked forward and looked at the items that dropped.
He went to where the Scorpion King had disappeared, there were a few gold coins that glowed with a golden light. There was a pair of leggings, a helmet, and half of a token that had a flame symbol on it.
Li Yi’s eyes lit up, and he quickly picked up the items.
[Equipment: Scorpion King’s Leggings]
[Rarity: Flawless]
[Physical Defense: 30]
[Magic Defense: 20]
[Flawless Attribute: Stamina +19, Strength +5]
[Equipment Conditions: Level 10]
…
[Equipment: Scorpion King’s Helmet]
[Rarity: Flawless]
[Physical Defense: 29]
[Magic Defense: 19]
[Flawless Attribute: Strength +17, Spirit +18]
[Equipment Condition: Level 10]
After checking the attributes of the two pieces of equipment, Li Yi nodded his head in satisfaction.
Right now, all he had equipped was a simple helmet, and his pants were still of excellent quality. The two pieces of equipment that dropped were good enough to be replaced.
Li Yi replaced the two pieces of equipment and kept the old equipment in his backpack. When he returned back to the city, he would pass them to Little Merchant to deal with.
After making some changes, Li Yi checked out the token in his hand.
The information on the token popped out.
[God Severing Token: Records the remains of an expert. Once you collect the other half of the token, you will be able to find these remains and obtain unimaginable power. This power could only be obtained by those who were fated to have it.]
“As expected, it’s the other half’s token.”
Li Yi’s heart was filled with joy, and his eyes were burning with desire. He then quickly took out the other half of the token.
The moment the other half of the token appeared, the two halves of the token began to shake when they were going to be connected.
Immediately after, they flashed with a fiery red light and floated to Li Yi’s chest.
The two halves of the token emitted wave after wave of a mysterious aura.
The token trembled. It was like two magnets that were being pulled to each other, it began to approach each other and slowly merged together.
After a while, the token that gave off a faint golden-red holy light quietly hung on Li Yi’s chest. Li Yi reached out and grabbed it.
“It’s a little warm.”
Li Yi felt the warmth coming from his palm and carefully examined the brand-new merged token. The flame symbol on it looked lifelike, it was like a burning ball of fire.
Then, a bullet screen with red words appeared in front of him.
[Soul Severing Token: This token is the key to a certain mysterious location. The space contains the remains of an expert.]
After reading these words, Li Yi began to flip through the token.
According to what he knew in his previous life, there should be clues on the item for such a crucial mission.
“Is this for… the broken God’s cliff?”
Li Yi flipped the token to the back, and a mini-map was clearly carved on it.
The mini-map recorded the location of the broken God’s cliff, and there was a red mark etched on it.
