Chapter 121: Thunder, Come and Fight!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Don’t just stand there, the Skeleton Soldiers are charging over!”
Li Yi’s furious roar brought everyone back from their previously relaxed state. The Skeleton Soldiers had already passed Li Yi and were charging towards the group behind him.
Li Yi alone could not pull the aggro of all the monsters. That was why half of the dozen or so monsters had passed Li Yi and were charging towards Snow Chaser that currently stood behind him.
Snow Chaser was caught off guard, and her high-level skill earlier distracted her enough to not be able to retaliate.
The Skeleton Soldiers were too fast, and Snow Chaser had no time to react. When the monster raised the rusty iron sword at Snow Chaser, a figure suddenly flashed in front of her and blocked the Skeleton Soldier’s attack with two blades.
“-3,345! Critical Hit!”
Clutch King took the blow head-on, withstanding the Skeleton Soldier’s attack and defending Snow Chaser. Snow Chaser hurriedly casted several Healing Spells on Clutch King.
“+521!”
“+324!”
…
“Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. These guys are very quick. You have to be careful.”
Li Yi was very satisfied with Clutch King’s reaction. This guy’s tacit understanding with Snow Chaser was improving. This was a step in a good direction.
“Tanker team, hurry up and charge forward. Don’t stop healing your members. These monsters are very fast. All of you have to be careful.”
“Team one, hurry up and charge!”
Sun Conqueror ordered the Tanker team to go in head first.
Everyone had to calm themselves down before they retaliated. They understood that these monsters were different from the ones they had encountered before. They knew better now than to treat them with ease.
Li Yi was at the front resisting four to five Skeleton Soldiers. These Skeleton Soldiers were too fast. It was very difficult for him to catch up with their moves. It was physically impossible for him to finish them off quickly.
Speed was his disadvantage, and he was facing the repercussions now.
“Starlight’s Blessing!”
“Combo!”
Fortunately, Li Yi also had a way to deal with these kinds of high-speed monsters. After activating Starlight’s Blessing, Li Yi’s attack speed increased by 30%.
“-13,542!”
“-24,541! Vital Strike!”
…
After Li Yi’s attack speed increased, he could now catch up with the speed of the Skeleton Soldiers. With nimble steps, he flashed in front of the Skeleton Soldiers and raised his magic weapon to slash vigorously.
In a blink of an eye, the Skeleton Soldiers collapsed in front of Li Yi and turned into nothingness.
Behind him, Clutch King used his advantage and the teamwork of his team to kill a few more Skeleton Soldiers.
It did not take long for these twenty or so Skeleton Soldiers to be taken care of. Even so, a few Mage players were still killed by the Skeleton Soldiers’ sneaky attacks.
Everyone also began to realize that even with Li Yi around, it was impossible to be completely safe. The terror of the nightmare mode once again made them realize how weak they actually were.
Li Yi saw that everyone was a little down from that episode, and he did not know what to say. He could only lead the team forward because that was what he knew best.
The first boss they were about to encounter was in the depths of the corridor.
Before they went forward, Li Yi asked everyone to check their remaining Potions they had left and their status. After everyone was good to go, Li Yi was about to carry on forward, but he found that Winnie was hidden in a corner. She was quiet and did not reply to any of the callouts.
This little girl might not have experienced such a scene before. She had always followed the team and easily entered dungeons knowing that she would be safe. Now, she was definitely trembling all over and scared out of her wits.
Li Yi shook his head. He had no intention of going forward to comfort her. Such a person would have to experience such a scene before having the want to learn and grow. Otherwise, they would only be a hindrance to the team later on.
Li Yi had Clutch King stand guard by Snow Chaser’s side. The three of them had the best teamwork after all. Were anything to happen, the three of them would be able to quickly react and assist the other party members.
This level of teamwork was the result of them grinding for EXP together. When it comes down to the big battle in the future, Li Yi was certain that they had much more to work on for them to succeed.
After opening the stone door, the Hall of Remembrance shook vigorously, it was louder than the thunderous roars they heard previosly.
The purple lightning was denser and fiercer than before.
Li Yi led everyone into the hall as they looked around at the familiar surroundings.
In the past, he had been defeated here countless times. This place could be said to be one of his greatest nightmares in his past life. It was only when he reached level 30 and above, he barely passed this stage in the game.
This time, he had only just reached level 25, yet he was here with a bunch of teammates who were not even level 25. It was obvious that he was feeling quite nervous about this whole situation.
Suddenly, purple lightning streaked across the sky. The sky turned dark, and bouts of Thunder shook the area.
Everything happened the way it did the last time. The only difference was that this time, the thunder seemed to have a life of its own. It did not disappear after a flash. Instead, it continued to howl in the hall, bombarding the ground with its presence.
Moreover, five purple lightning bolts were swirling around like hurricanes. The people behind Li Yi were stunned on the spot, and the weapons in their hands fell to the ground.
“Don’t panic! We can do it.”
Hearing Li Yi’s words, everyone picked up the weapons that fell to the ground.
Li Yi’s words were comforting, and everyone focused their minds to overcome this battle.
‘If Carefree Dream said it would work, it would work.’ Many of them had the same thoughts.
This was a kind of blind trust that they were willing to put themselves into for Li Yi.
Many of them saw Li Yi standing there with broad shoulders, he looked like a towering wall that protected everyone.
Li Yi turned his head to look at the people behind him. In their gazes, he saw the look of those who stood behind him in his previous life when they faced gods together with him.
That gaze was all too familiar to him. It even touched a certain part of Li Yi’s heart.
Last time, he had betrayed this trust. This time, he would not and would never do so.
From this moment onwards, everything shall change.
In a flash, five purple bolts of lightning, accompanied by familiar memories, flashed across the sky. The sound of the air being torn apart was an indication of a powerful force that shook the heavens and earth!
“It’s coming.”
In the center of the hall, an extraordinary figure slowly walked out accompanied by five bolts of lightning.
The figure wore armor that was surrounded by lightning, the long spear emitted purple electrical currents all around it. The eyes revealed a cold glimmer and the faint light behind the figure was mixed with purple lightning. The figure even looked like a thundercloud that could not be seen clearly.

Due to his outstanding battle achievements and extraordinary talent, Origins had killed him. The Ghana Empire regretted it and buried him in the Hall of Remembrance for future generations to remember him! After being infected by the runic energy, he obtained the power of lightning.]
“He has evolved.”
“He’s a perfect level boss! His attributes should be terrifying, right?”
“Don’t be afraid, he only has high HP. He can be killed!”
Li Yi’s words caused the panicking team members to calm down.
“Everyone, get ready.. We’re about to begin.”
