Chapter 463: Blazing Titan
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Spider King had shrunk, and so did the value of each percentage of its HP. Although the HP displayed was no different from its previous form, the current Spider King was not as tough as before.
In contrast with the prior Spider King, the current one had reduced HP and its attacks were weaker. As such, its threat to the party had been halved.
Unending Unmatched Charged forward, drawing Spider King’s aggro. He moved slowly but carefully and managed to pull its head around, causing its butt to face the party.
Block! Block! Block!
Unending Unmatched blocked each of Spider King’s swipes, and now that its laser beam had been weakened, the damage it dealt to him was only around 40 thousand, which was no longer considered a threat.
The battle had begun in earnest. Golden Gun Cannot Fall rushed to Unending Unmatched’s side and observed with full attention. This was to ensure a swift replacement should any accidents occur.
Spider King’s HP plunged, and in a minute, its HP was already at 92%.
“Warning! Warning! Pressure overload! Core temperature has exceeded threshold values! Entering Self-defense Mode.”
When Spider King’s HP had reached 90%, it began to spit out spider silk. Its targets were not the players, but itself. In a blink of an eye, its body was wrapped by a thick layer of spider silk, and it had turned into a spider cocoon.
“Deflective Energy Shield activated...”
A layer of red light enveloped the pulsing spider cocoon. The absurdly strong Spider King had chosen to activate its Deflective Energy Shield at that moment.
Dozens of players had reacted too late. The moment their attacks landed on the spider cocoon, they were immediately reflected at an amplified strength. The reflected attacks had taken down eight players.
“Stop! Stop!”
Li Yi shouted two commands in rapid succession, finally ending their attacks. There were too many members in the party, and those who were unaware of the current situation took up the majority. As such, leading them flawlessly was nearly impossible.
The cowardly spider cocoon was constantly growing, and even those who were clueless could tell that it was not a good sign.
‘Since we can’t attack, are we supposed to watch it repair itself?’
Right as everyone was confused at the current situation, Li Yi rushed forward. After circling the cocoon a few times, he found a crevice under the spider cocoon and dug his way in.
Unending Unmatched and Golden Gun Cannot Fall did not loiter around. They immediately followed Li Yi and entered the cocoon as well.
Inside the spider cocoon, Spider King had bundled itself like a ball and was pulsing like a heart. With every pulse, its body grew in size. Furthermore, it had already regained the HP it had lost and was already back at 100%.
“Dismantle it!”
Li Yi issued his orders and spurred Unending Unmatched and Golden Gun Cannot Fall into action. They followed the indicator on Spider King’s head and set off to dismantle the screws.
There was usually no crevice to dig into when Spider King entered this state. Fortunately for them, they had gone through the trouble of dismantling Spider King before this, and it was due to their efforts that the crevice had appeared.
They needed to stop it during its metamorphosis phase. Otherwise, once the metamorphosis was completed, it would enter in Berserk Mode for three minutes. Nobody would be able to stop if it were to ever happen.
Clink! Clink! Clink!
The screws on Spider King’s body were constantly removed, but due to Spider King’s deep slumber, they did not lose any HP this time. Their current endeavor was devoid of any danger.
Tch—
Three screws had been taken down. Spider King’s body wailed in protest, and its HP was reduced by 20%.
“Keep on dismantling it!”
Clink! Clink! Clink!
Another three screws had been removed, and explosions erupted across the surface of Spider King’s body. Clouds of smoke drifted through the air, and it crumpled not the ground.
At that moment, the Deflective Energy Shield surrounding the cocoon vanished, and the cocoon cracked. At Li Yi’s order, the party resumed their assault once more.
Clink! Clink! Clink!
The indicator on Spider King was displaying blue, blue, and white. Both Unending Unmatched and Golden Gun Cannot Fall were removing blue screws, whereas Li Yi was hidden from everyone’s sight and was plucking out a red screw.
This time, he did not follow what the indicator had displayed.
‘Big-tits Qian, I’m pinning all my hopes on you!’
Li Yi prayed silently while he dismantled the screws.
Red screws, red screws, red screws, regardless of what Unending Unmatched and Golden Gun dismantled, Li Yi would only dismantle one type of screw, the red-colored ones!
Whether they could take down Spider King was all dependent on these red screws...
Another three red screws had been taken out.
“Warning! Warning! Pressure overload! Control core destroyed! Temporary loss of control! Temporary loss of control! Releasing ultimate weapon! Annihilate! Annihilate all intruders! Counting down from 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5...” read the cold, electronic voice of the ruthless Spider King.
Snap!
Unending Unmatched took down a screw, and one of the iron panels on Spider King’s surface slid away, revealing a hole underneath.
At that point, Li Yi was already sweating in desperation. However, the moment he saw the whole, he gleefully shouted, “Head inside the hole!”
Unending Unmatched entered the hole without any shred of hesitation. However, by the time Li Yi and Golden Gun Cannot Fall had made their way there, Spider King had already unleashed its ultimate weapon.
Spider King’s body turned white, and it unleashed a barrage of omnidirectional laser beams.
Li Yi and Golden Gun Cannot Fall died on the spot. The laser extended past the cocoon and engulfed the entire battlefield. It lasted for a minute, and nobody could resist its might...
Everyone in the party had been annihilated, leaving only Unending Unmatched, who had made its way into Spider King’s body alive!
Pull out the screws to make a hole. This was the most important step within Qian’er’s guide and success hinged on this crucial step.
Li Yi remembered the steps in the guide, but he did not know which screw he needed to remove in order to make the hole. Furthermore, due to his special circumstances, he could not mention it to anyone beforehand, and as such, he relied solely on luck.
‘We succeeded, someone made it through...’
Li Yi had died, but he was still peachy. To him, dying in a dungeon was not too big of a deal. First of all, he would not lose any equipment, and secondly, he would not lose his level. At most, the durability of his equipment would take a hit, but it did not bother him at all.
“Boom! Boom!”
Spider King rolled and writhed on the ground, but that did not stop Unending Unmatched. He aimed at the energy core within the body and hacked furiously. After all, the core was Spider King’s equivalent to the human heart, and each blow dealt to it would cause a 1,000% increase in damage.
“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Unending Unmatched relentlessly slashed at the core, and his teammates lying on the ground had their hearts in their mouths in anticipation.
“Keep it up! Keep it up...”
“Brother Unmatched, keep it up...”
“Lil Unmatched, stay strong, your brothers are counting on you.”
The biggest boon of being able to speak when dead was the ability to cheer others on...
“Wrryyy—”
After receiving their encouragement, Unending Unmatched let out a high-pitched feminine cry and put in even more effort to his attacks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Smoke surged from Spider King’s body. Against external foes, it was nigh invincible, but when faced with enemies who had made their way into it, there was nothing it could do.
“Warning! Warning! Energy core severely damaged! Initiating Auto-repair...”
A single blow from Unending Unmatched’s sword dealt 200,000 damage, but each tick of Spider King’s repair recovered 150,000 HP. Although its HP was gradually draining, it had a thick HP pool, and even after hacking for a long time, its HP remained at 40%.
The process was too slow.
Frustrated, Uneding Unmatched chugged down a bottle of Unlimited Fury Potion.
“Shield Bash! Double Retaliation! Double Retaliation!”
The possibilities were endless for Warriors who had gotten their hands on unlimited Fury.
After all, Warriors were only able to unleash three shots of Double Retaliation even at max Fury. Even an expert like Unending Unmatched could not unleash three Double Retaliations at one go. However, with unlimited Fury, this restriction had been removed, and now, he could unleash as many Double Retaliations as he pleased. His damage skyrocketed after consuming the potion.
[−564322]
[−653223]
[−342322]
The sky-high damage counter constantly rang out and Spider King’s HP took massive plunges. Its Auto-repair functionality was futile against Unending Unmatched’s damage.
[31%...29%...21%...15%...10%...3%...0%]
Crash!
Spider King crumpled onto the ground, with electricity sparking out from its body. It clawed desperately with its last ounce of strength and stopped completely.
With the energy core within it crushed, Spider King had been reduced to a heap of junk.
‘It’s over!’
[Congratulations! Your party has achieved the first kill of Glory’s gatekeeper boss, Spider King!]
The system notification rang out, and gold Achievement Panels appeared in front of the party members.
[Your party has successfully killed Spider King. As such, the party has been awarded the achievement, Blazing Titan.]
‘The achievement, Blazing Titan!’
Unending Unmatched made his way out of Spider King’s body and was greeted by the cheers of his party members.
Suddenly, Lil Moigne who was wielding Light Messenger had arrived at the scene. He cast a Group Resurrection Spell and brought all the dead party members to life.
During the battle with Spider King, players were forbidden from using resurrection. It was for this reason that Li Yi and the others who had Holy Light Amulet were forced to lie down until the battle was over.
Naturally, there were those who knew not of Lil Moigne’s arrival and made a tragic error. Many were unaware that Lil Moigne would resurrect them, so, when the battle had ended, they immediately used their Holy Light Amulet. However, the moment their screens were filled with the white light of their teammate’s resurrection, they could feel tears streaming from their eyes...
They had wasted their precious resurrection item for nothing.
“Spider King is the final intelligent lifeform within Ancient Civilization Ruins. It is the final guardian of the King of Lanluo, Lord Yuge. Heroes, please feel proud of your achievement!”
Players were already used to having NPCs appearing and babbling on after their battles. As such, nobody listened to Lil Moigne’s praise. Instead, their attention was focused on the shiny treasure chest in his hands.
It was the reward for beating Spider King!
Li Yi walked over to the battered Spider King, crouched down, and began to collect more components.
Ka! Ka! Ka!
An erratic sound echoed out, and Spider King’s tattered remains vanished whereas Li Yi had gotten his hands on three more components.
[Laser Cannon Mechanism, Broken Energy Core, Discarded Titanium Alloy]
Li Yi had finally gotten his hands on the final material to craft the superjet.
“Heroes, the road ahead is even more perilous. You are about to face a citizen of Lanluo who is known to challenge the pride of gods. This is a small token of my appreciation, perhaps it would aid you in your journey ahead.”
Lil Moigne set down his treasure chest and left without a single trace.
Dinggggggg!
At that instant, Li Yi’s mailbox rang.
Since Brother Windcloud Nine had lost, the system automatically selected the equipment on him and mailed them to Li Yi along with a hundred million Gold Coin
