Chapter 92: Being Too Smart
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Yamada, who was sitting at the top of the mountain, saw that half of the island had been completely destroyed, a smug smile appeared on his pale face.
...He didn’t know that his Withering Array had “mutilated”, but he was sure that the Annihilation Fireball that had overlapped five times could definitely kill Zhang Xuan !
Glancing disdainfully at the group of class advancement players from Long Xia Country outside the island, he stood up and planned to leave the dungeon.
“Now that the greatest threat has been resolved, there’s no need to pay attention to these shrimp soldiers and crab generals. When I nurture a new shikigami, these remaining guys will be eliminated sooner or later!”
To Yamada, all the class advancement players outside the island combined were less threatening than Zhang Xuan.
After all, if not for Zhang Xuan, they might still be restrained by the array formation and be unable to leave.
However, as soon as Yamada finished speaking, a ferocious ghost face suddenly appeared in front of him. Caught off guard, a hint of fear appeared in Yamada’s eyes. In the next moment, his figure disappeared.
“I saved an Undead Warrior. Not bad.”
Zhang Xuan muttered. Beside him was an undead warrior holding a huge bone shield.
[Shield: Undead Warrior (Servant)]
[Health: 100,000]
[Agility: 754]
[Endurance:
[Strength: —]
[Spirit:
[Passive: Assess 85% of the damage to up to 10 friendly units nearby until they dip 1
[Skill: Shield Attack]
[Shield Attack: When your HP is deducted at any time, you will receive cumulative damage (Maximum 50,000). When you reach the limit, you will counterattack, causing 200% of the cumulative damage. At the same time, you will apply a shield with 100% cumulative damage to all friendly units.]
[Servant Effect: Every 1,000 points of damage absorbed increases all friendly units’ damage reduction by 2%.]
In order to protect everyone, Zhang Xuan summoned this Shield Undead Warrior. From the skill, it was obvious that this evil spirit was used to resist damage.
Moreover, it clearly looked like it could only be used once. After all, compared to other evil spirits, this kind of evil spirit that was purely meant to be beaten was really useless.
Because Zhang Xuan wasn’t afraid of any attack, his initial thought was to use it as a one-time use item.
However, he didn’t expect his guess to be verified!
After the effect of the Withering Array was neutralized by Spirit Recovery, it became a heaven-defying damage reduction divine skill!
In fact, Zhang Xuan had already realized that the Withering Array would deduct HP according to the percentage of one’s spirit.
However, if one’s spirit was maintained at full strength, their HP would also be maintained at full strength. The upper limit of the damage they suffered during this period depended on the percentage of their HP. Yang Qingqing, who was attacked by the Venom Assassin, was an example.
On the other hand, Zhang Xuan’s only hidden talent, Spirit Recovery, could recover as much as 570 Spirit every second, and it had an extremely wide range.
With such a powerful Spirit replenishment, the deduction effect of the Withering Array was obviously useless. Therefore, Gu Shanshan’s mental strength was always at full capacity.
This meant that the damage of the Annihilation Spheres depended on the remaining percentage of everyone’s Spirit. That was why Zhang Xuan was so confident in the attack of the Annihilation Fireball.
Even if the Withering Array was different from his thoughts, he still had a strong Shield Undead Warrior. He didn’t have to worry at all!
At this moment, the Evil Spirit Sister appeared with the terrified Yamada. Zhang Xuan waved his hand, and countless Skeleton Warriors instantly surrounded him.
Suddenly! Yamada’s entire body trembled violently. Then, he actually forcefully shook off his fear. After all, he was in a pseudo-legendary class. Naturally, he had the skill to remove the control.
However, when he saw Zhang Xuan and the safe and sound people beside him, Yamada screamed involuntarily.
“How is this possible! You were clearly affected by the Withering Array. How could you withstand five Annihilation Fireballs!?”
Yamada, who had lost control of his emotions, couldn’t believe the scene in front of him. He would rather believe that he was dead too. What he saw now was the souls of Zhang Xuan and the others!
However, he wasn’t the only one. Gu Shanshan and the others had yet to react. They couldn’t believe that they had been saved by the Withering Array.
Pffft!
Under Yamada’s wide-eyed gaze, the long sabers of a few Skeleton Warriors stabbed into his body. Yamada’s remaining health points instantly decreased to zero.
“Why… you…”
“I have to thank you for the Withering Array.”
Before his life faded, Yamada heard Zhang Xuan’s teasing words. His eyes were filled with unwillingness and disbelief, but that was all.
With the death of the last Cherry Blossom Country class advancement player, the battle finally ended. The Skeleton Army retreated to Zhang Xuan’s side. He also brought back the corpses of a group of Cherry Blossom Country class advancement players.
Zhang Xuan had actually lost a lot of Skeleton Warriors in this battle. There were less than 60 left, but this loss was nothing to him.
Black vortexes appeared behind Zhang Xuan one after another, and brand new Skeleton Warriors were summoned.
Next, it was time to collect the spoils of war.
Although the greatest gain this time was the 10 evil spirits drawn, these class advancement players from Cherry Blossom Country who provided souls were all rare classes.
They definitely had one or two good pieces of equipment on them.
Seeing Zhang Xuan go forward to collect the various things that had fallen from the corpse, Gu Shanshan and the others gradually recovered from their daze.
“That’s… that’s it?”
“Heaven-defying, too heaven-defying.”
“Good lord, he killed dozens of rare class advancement players at once and a pseudo-legendary class player. Cherry Blossom Country will feel the pinch now.”
Swallowing his saliva, Liang Muzi couldn’t help but say, “In the countries of the current world, even if it’s an abyss invasion, such a ridiculous thing has never happened.”
The others looked at each other and thought that it was more than a pinch. So many rare professions were already the number of talents in the entire Cherry Blossom Country in a year.
Now that they had all been killed by Zhang Xuan, there would be a shortage of youth in Cherry Blossom Country for at least two to three years!
What made everyone feel the most ridiculous was that Zhang Xuan actually dared to collect the equipment dropped by the class advancement players after they died.
The professional weapons and equipment of Cherry Blossom Country were clearly different from those of Long Xia Country. Wasn’t this clearly telling Cherry Blossom Country that he was the murderer?
“Zhang Xuan, it’s better if you don’t pick up the things dropped by these dead people. It’ll be very troublesome if you’re discovered.”
As an ice fog flowed, Zhou Yi, whom he hadn’t heard from for a long time, appeared beside Zhang Xuan. She originally planned to go straight to Yamada, but she was stopped by two assassins from Cherry Blossom Country on the way.
When she killed both of them, she saw with her own eyes that the Evil Spirit
Sister had taken Yamada away.
However, Zhang Xuan didn’t care about Zhou Yi’s reminder.
“They should have been prepared to be killed when they provoked us in the beginning. If it weren’t for me today, we might have ended in a worse state..”
