Chapter 79: Chapter 79: A Loud Boom!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ten seconds later, Ling Yi’s blurry figure finally arrived at the main road’s fourth stage.

[Current Area: Swamp Forest]

[Monster Information: Mud Imp (lv20-lv25), Shadow Imp (lv20-lv25)]

After going down from Hot Wind Golden Peak, he would arrive at the dark and damp Swamp Forest.

As the name suggested, there were many swamplands at this stage, and walking through them would be very uncomfortable.

So, Ling Yi planned to fly through the swamp, and he had no plan to land.

He summoned a [Starfall] when he was 100 meters above the ground.

“Star…fall!”

His [Starfall] skill had risen to 4 Stars!

The higher his mana, the bigger the meteor would be.

As his Star-Rank increased, his casting range would also increase, and the flaming star would appear higher in the sky.

After copying the Ice Queen’s mana attribute, his mana had reached 400 points!

Even though Ling Yi had expected it, he couldn’t help but still be surprised by its sheer size as it appeared in the blue sky.

The 400m-long flame star was like an actual meteor, its huge flames covering an area of a few km!

It fell to the ground extremely fast, making deafening rumbling sounds.

“F*ck!”

When such a giant rock fell, the flaming tail could shoot dozens of meters high.

Ling Yi was afraid he would be hit by it, so he quickly flew higher and further away from the targeted area.

After putting some distance, he turned around to watch the scene unfold.

When it hit the ground, suddenly, it was as if a giant light bulb had been lit up. A dazzling orange-yellow light suddenly bloomed in the targeted area. And if anyone looked directly at it, there’s no doubt that it would burn their retinas.

Boom!

As an earth-shattering sound rang through the land, shock waves rapidly spread through the vicinity!

It swept past Ling Yi’s body, hitting him against the sudden pressure. He stretched out his hand to block his face from the current, and with his half-opened eyes, he looked down at the forest that was instantly covered in flames.

Boom!

Boom!

The loud sound was far beyond Ling Yi’s expectations. The rising flames instantly shot up to a hundred meters in the air!

The forest seemed to be filled with flammable and explosive substances, and the entire swamp forest exploded terrifyingly!

Ling Yi flew further away to a safer distance as he continued to watch the fiery scene.

Now that you think about it, there’s a high level of marsh gas in the swamp, and once it comes in contact with an open fire….

Ling Yi had always focused on using his skills whenever he needed them. He never considered the environment’s characteristics, so the “after-explosion” was completely unintentional.

Looking at the raging fire, which reached several kilometers from where the meteor landed, he felt a little guilty.

This fire doesn’t look like it’ll be extinguished so easily… I don’t know how long it’ll last…

[You’ve killed the Swamp Imp (level 20), +1 EXP]

[You’ve killed a Dark Imp (lv23), +4 EXP]

[…]

In addition to the experience, the materials dropped by the monsters were also automatically added to his rucksack. Since there were so many of them, a large portion of them had been automatically saved by God’s Path system into a temporary mailbox.

It took Ling Yi quite a while to collect all of them, even with [Hardworking Bee].

Then, his eyes caught sight of the only monster that survived in the middle of the fiery field. It was the fourth stage’s Boss, Poison Bog King.

It looked like a pitch-black liquid monster from a distance, similar to a massive piece of black plasticine.

It stood as steady as a mountain in the middle of the fire as if it was immune to it.

Ling Yi used his [Eye of Truth] to look through its stats.

[Name: Poison Bog King (lv25)]

[Type: Boss Monster]

[Attributes: strength 75, mana 150, agility 75, endurance 225, physique 225]

[Skills: Fluid Form (6 Star) (Passive), Advanced Damage Reduction (6 Star) (Passive), Venomous Body (6 Star) (Passive), Chaotic Muddled Touch (7 Star)]

[Current Status: Heavily Injured (21%)]

Looking at its stats, it seemed to be a “meat shield” kind of Boss.

It only had one active skill.

“Huh? Heavily injured?”

Looking at the unmoving Poison Bog King in the fire, Ling Yi found it hard to associate it with the ‘heavily injured’ state.

“Mmm… I’ll just have to fight and see then,”

He summoned the Ice Queen, and after exchanging a look with her, they rushed towards the boss together.

The fourth stage’s battle quickly began!

Meanwhile, somewhere else on the main road…

The players of District 66 were stunned when they first heard the loud boom. All of them unconsciously turned their heads towards the sound out of reflex. However, once their thought connected to what it was, they sighed.

“It must be those mysterious players, huh? No doubt about it.”

“Yeah. It looks like they’re going back to the main road!”

“But isn’t this noise a little too loud? We’re a few kilometers away from them, and we can still hear it. What’s going on over there?”

“Who cares.”

“If you don’t work hard to level up, you won’t be able to get good rewards for the tower in a few days.”

The news of a group of players trying to stalk the (now confirmed) mysterious duo was broadcasted worldwide yesterday morning. It also retold their massive failure that led to the group’s suicides.

Hence, many organizations temporarily gave up on the idea of searching for these newcomers.

It’s not because they didn’t want to look, but because they had no other choice.

In District 66, these two players were already invincible! It wouldn’t matter how many people they sent. The results would be the same.

The players of District 66 were well aware of the massive gap between them and this mysterious duo, so no one dared to provoke them again.

Even now, when they saw the huge commotion that was undoubtedly caused by those two, they were shocked but forced themselves to focus on their grind.

However, there were always exceptions….

Luo Yao was one of them.

Sensing the huge attack, her heart began to fluctuate uncontrollably.

“Mengya, if the Ice and Flame Star Duo are willing to go to District 87, do you think they can beat it?”

The Ice and Flame Star Duo was the nickname given to the mysterious newcomers, one for the guy who casts fiery meteors in the sky and the other for his ice wielder partner. Thus, they were called the “Ice and Flame Star Duo.”

When Qin Mengya heard her question, she knew what the girl she was residing with was thinking.

“You’ll never know unless you try,” She replied helplessly.

Luo Yaohad been very concerned about this matter these past few days and would only utter a few words from time to time.

It was getting on Qin Mengya’s nerves at this point.

“Since you’re not even level 10 yet, go find them and see what they’re like. You’ll be lucky if they’re willing. But if they refuse, then you can give up on asking them.”

Luo Yao furrowed her brows and nodded, “Okay, I’ll go find them now.” She said firmly.

But of course, she couldn’t come unprepared.

To avoid being frozen by the other party and wasting her time in God’s Path, she bought a poison pill from the store for this occasion.

[Poison Pill (E)]: Throw it into the target’s mouth, which will take effect after the target swallows it or crushes it with their teeth. The target will be poisoned (Poison Level 1).

It was initially used to poison monsters, but the effects also apply to other players, and it’s a common item used for suicide.

Luo Yao planned to hide one in her mouth when she met them later so that she could quickly commit suicide if she’s threatened to be frozen.
