Chapter 79 - Midnight Descends! Demonic Beasts Invasion!
Chapter 79: Midnight Descends! Demonic Beasts Invasion!
Before Su Muxue could feel the shock, Jiang Bai charged forward and leaped into the air. Without any protection, he pounced towards the Dark Dragon.
The Dark Dragon’s eyes were filled with rage. They were like blazing torches.
It roared, “Adventurers, if you dare to invade my territory, you will have to pay the price!”
It then started to rage.
Subsequently, all sorts of skills were unleashed.
Dragon Breath, Dark Storm, Dragon Form…
Storms gathered constantly around the Dark Dragon, becoming thick and pitch-black.
Even its body had doubled in size with the help of the Dragon Form skill.
Most importantly, the Dragon Breath could cause players to have all sorts of negative statuses.
[Dragon’s Breath level 5]
[Description: A move from the Dragon Clan. It has been strengthened by the Dark Dragon. Once a target is attacked by the Dragon’s Breath, their body will shudder and there is a high chance of receiving negative statuses, including stun, curse, and imprisonment!]
An interface appeared in the sky.
Jiang Bai also noticed the Dragon’s Breath’s description.
There were a total of three negative statuses.
For an ordinary player, if they came in contact with the Dragon’s Breath, they would feel dizzy. Then, they would become the target of the Dark Dragon.
When the Dark Dragon unleashed its Dragon’s Breath again, the target would be inflicted by curse and imprisonment statuses.
At this point, ordinary players basically could only await death.
However, Jiang Bai was not an ordinary player.
He had an immunity buff on him.
[Ding! Maise the God’s immunity buff is activated!]
[All negative statuses, such as imprisonment, curse, and stun, are ineffective against Maise the God!]
…
[Ding! Dragon’s Breath attempted to attach a negative status. Ineffective!]
…
[Ding! Dragon’s Breath attempted to attach a negative status. Ineffective!]
…
No matter how many times the Dark Dragon used Dragon’s Breath, the result would be the same.
Under such circumstances, the Dark Dragon completely went berserk and directly lashed out with its tail.
The Dark Dragon’s body was huge, and its entire tail was ten meters long. If a player was hit by its tail, their body might even be cut in half.
In this sword and magic world, the player’s sense of pain was weakened. In reality, players could only feel 5% of fatal pain. Hence, when their bodies were cut in half, they would not feel so much pain.
However, no one wanted to experience what it felt like to have their bodies cut in half.
The ferocious attacks of the Dark Dragon posed no threat to Jiang Bai at all.
Jiang Bai whispered, “I’ve already figured out its attack pattern.”
He smiled calmly.
The attacks of some big bosses had patterns.
For this Dark Dragon, whenever it swung its tail, the player would not receive any damage as long as they moved closer to its body.
The very next moment, the Dark Dragon swung its tail and destroyed the city wall behind it.
Boom. Boom. Boom.
Cracking sounds could be heard continuously.
Not only did the city wall crack, but all kinds of huge objects also crumbled.
The scene was chaotic.
The Dark Dragon had launched a devastating attack.
However, Jiang Bai successfully landed on the Dark Dragon’s back and wasn’t affected by its attack at all.
“All I need to do is stab it in the spine and it’ll be dead,” Jiang Bai thought as he took out the platinum grade forging material.
Since the Dark Dragon was a platinum grade creature, a normal knife couldn’t pierce through its scales in one go.
To ensure his success, Jiang Bai raised the platinum grade material and smashed it down onto the Dark Dragon’s back.
Although it wasn’t a knife, it still landed with a huge impact.
The Dark Dragon’s spine was instantly destroyed by the impact. It split apart from the point of impact.
If one could burrow into its body, then one could see that its entire spine had been snapped into two, with cracks continuously propagating!
To Su Muxue’s surprise, the seemingly ferocious Dark Dragon had completely collapsed.
At this moment, she let out a cry of surprise.
“The Dark Dragon is dead?”
“What?”
[Ding! Congratulations to Maise the God for killing the Dark Dragon!]
[Ding! Congratulations to Maise the God for killing the Dark Dragon!]
[Ding! Congratulations to Maise the God for killing the Dark Dragon!]
[Calculating dungeon rewards.]
[Due to this being the first time you’ve cleared the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon, the announcement will be made throughout the entire server!]
A series of system announcements sounded.
Even if Su Muxue was in disbelief, she could only accept the fact that Jiang Bai had killed the Dark Dragon.
She murmured, “What exactly did Jiang Bai do when he was standing on the back of the Dark Dragon?”
She had not seen the battle clearly.
After all, when the Dark Dragon unleashed Dark Storm, Dragon Form and other skills, the scene became completely chaotic.
Su Muxue was puzzled and prepared to ask Jiang Bai when he came over.
…
After a while, Jiang Bai walked up to Su Muxue, but he didn’t explain the fight in detail.
After all, some secrets had to be hidden.
He only told Su Muxue that the Dark Dragon had a weakness.
Su Muxue didn’t inquire further.
However, her love for Jiang Bai grew even stronger.
That was her love for men of strength.
Very soon, Jiang Bai received his first stage-clearance reward.
What made him feel helpless was that this reward had to be announced across the entire server.
He could imagine that once the reward was announced across the entire server, the world channel would be in an uproar.
“Let me first change the conditions for adding friends to my friend list,” Jiang Bai thought out loud as he changed his settings.
After that, those who found out that Jiang Bai had killed the Dark Dragon and wanted to add him as their friend were automatically rejected by the system.
However, Jiang Bai did not expect that the players on the world channel would want to watch the live broadcast and see how he killed the Dark Dragon.
Unfortunately for the other players, the live broadcast and the replay function would only be available in the middle and later stages of the game!
…
[Ding! The guild training grounds will be publicly open at midnight!]
[Reminder: The guild training grounds are the most important sources of EXP besides the main and side quests!]
[The guild training grounds are divided into high, middle and low levels.]
…
The sound of a system notification could be heard.
Jiang Bai already knew what a guild training ground was. His expression was very calm.
However, he was also a little surprised by the details announced.
When the system notification came in just now, it had specifically emphasized the word ‘midnight’.
Jiang Bai thought for a while.
After all, it was the memory of his previous life; he could not remember every detail.
“I’ve got it!” he exclaimed.
The word ‘midnight’ was associated with the invasion of demonic beasts!
Once night fell, the demonic beasts would invade every territory and cause destruction.
Not only would they destroy buildings, even NPCs and players would suffer fatal damage from their attacks.
Thus, when midnight fell, many people would find a place to hide and not dare to show themselves.
They would only dare to come out when midnight was over and it was early in the morning.
“But aren’t the Midnight Invasions only available at the middle and later stages of the game?”
“Could it be that my arrival caused a butterfly reaction and caused the Midnight Invasions to arrive early?”
“The arrival of the Midnight Invasions means that the difficulty of the game has been raised to nightmare level! This difficulty level is meant to test the skill of the players during the middle and later stages of the game!”
“Now that the invasions have arrived early, I’m afraid that these novice players will suffer.”
“However, this is the interesting part for me.”
Jiang Bai looked expectant as he waited for the Midnight Invasions to descend at night!
