Chapter 504 - Two Tigers

[Player Dark Wing has shattered the phantasm of zombie Yuge. He has successfully entered the depths of the tomb, and will receive an additional 5 Skill Points as a reward!]

When Li Yi decreased zombie Yuge's HP to 90%, zombie Yuge has turned to run away.

Little Elf from the Magical Realm was the first to enter the depths of the tomb, followed by the mysterious player Ouyang Qian in second place while Li Yi himself made it in third place!

In the ancient and serene passage that has yellow hued square tiles that lined the ground, zombie Yuge ran. Occasionally, it would let out a few growls.

System Notification: [Reduce 10% of zombie Yuge's HP in 2 hours!]

Li Yi grabbed his bow and chased zombie Yuge.

The tomb's passageway has many bends and curves. Sometimes, the ground would crack, while other times the top of the passageway would drop some stones. On top of that, countless zombie monsterlings blocked the way, making the chase extremely difficult.

After running for a certain distance, zombie Yuge would stop and wait before running away again after it took several hits from the player. Players were also allowed to attack it when it was running.

It was still a fixed damage value of 2000 for every hit!

The zombie monsterlings that spawned along the way were not tall. They were most annoying when they appeared in dozens because they could easily block the passageway. Li Yi's solution to this problem was to attack them whenever possible, and if it was not practical to do so, he would run backward for a while and wait for the zombie monsterlings to form a straight line. Only then would he barge his way forward using the Rocket Propellant.

After a long way of chasing and attacking, zombie Yuge finally ended up in a dead end.

There was no way forward. This was the end of the tomb, and the scene was surprisingly set at the laboratory where Yuge would do his experiments in.

The bottles and jars were still there when zombie Yuge stumbled its way in. Then, it proceeded to grab random bottles and jars to chug them down its throat.

Zombie Yuge was merely an empty flesh. Even though it has a self-consciousness, but they were limited to physical responses. Due to that, it would escape in a panic despite possessing godlike-powers in its body.

Zombie Yuge did not retaliate. Instead, it acted like a mindless fly that would run away the best it could and would not stop eating random things.

It did not cost Li Yi much effort to get rid of it.

The medications did not cause Yuge to become stronger. Instead, it was Bleeding at a faster rate.

"Ah… Ah… Ah…"

Zombie Yuge's HP has dropped to 80% before it finally drank a bottle of medicine that was actually useful. Its body quickly expanded and has transformed from a tattered and broken zombie to a 30-meters-tall black giant.

All of the muscles in its body bulged together. Zombie Yuge was now an entirely different person than how it looked before.

Wham! Wham! Wham!

The Mutated Yuge clutched his own fists to forcefully slam against the ground. It only took three slams for a large hole to appear, and it proceeded to jump into the hole…

The second stage was over! The time limit was removed, and it was safe for now.

However, in contrast to the first stage, there was no System Notification that appeared this time. Naturally, there will be no additional rewards in this stage.

Instead of jumping down to continue the pursuit immediately, Li Yi has approached the pile of bottles and jars.

It was against the norm to have no rewards at all when the second stage has been successfully cleared. Since the System did not automatically give the players the reward, there was only one other possibility left - the players would need to seek for it themselves.

After searching around the bottle and jars for a while, a ping from the System Notification was heard.

Ding!

[Congratulations, you have obtained 1x Invincibility Potion.]

After consuming the Invincibility Potion, the player would experience a 20-second Invincibility Mode. This was one of the most powerful potions in the King of Pantheons, and only Legendary Apothecary Masters could brew this potion.

The reward was an average one, but it was certainly better than nothing at all. Li Yi finally nodded in satisfaction and finally leaped down the huge hole that Mutated Yuge has punched through…

The surroundings were pitch black as he fell. After approximately 20 seconds, his fall started to slow down. Li Yi has finally landed steadily on the ground.

"Roar! Roar!"

Mutated Yuge stood far away, roaring incessantly. Behind it was two NPCs that were both tied onto a pole. It certainly was Great Lord Moigne and Shirui the Dark Pope.

This was the scene of the final battle.

Thwack!

Li Yi tried to shoot at Mutated Yuge with an arrow. A damage value of [-7864] appeared.

The damage value has finally returned to normal and was no longer fixed in stone.

"Roar!"

Mutated Yuge jumped to an impressive height and slammed down at Li Yi with both of its fists.

[-32145]

Li Yi crumpled to the ground immediately…

Mutated Yuge ran back in glee. Li Yi activated the Light Talisman to stand up from the ground once more.

The NPCs have gifted them with two Light Talisman that he has yet to use until now. After exhausting one of them, he still had another Light Talisman in his hand.

After using the Light Talisman, the Dark Honor status on him upgraded in kind. The resurrection rate of 5% has now increased to become 10%.

Li Yi frowned before turning into the Lightning Leopard with a shake of his body. He immediately used Stealth in an attempt to circle around Mutated Yuge to approach the cylindrical pillar that Moigne and Shirui were tied to.

The Mutated Yuge has too high of a damage value and speed that directly attacking it would be a reckless thing to do. Li Yi's idea was to go forward and converse with Moigne and Shirui. After all, those Bosses that seemed invincible would always expose their fatal flaw after a few words with the NPC.

Li Yi had never expected this plan of his to fail too.

Before he could finish taking his third step in Stealth Mode, Mutated Yuge has sensed his presence. It charged at him with lightning speed and forcefully slammed him with its two fists. Li Yi found himself to be lying on the floor again…

This time, Li Yi has laid on the floor for a very long time to wait for Mutated Yuge to turn its head around. When that happened, he took the opportunity to resurrect himself and retreated to his original position.

He had now exhausted both of his Light Talismans. Even though the probability of resurrection of the Dark Honor has increased by 20%, Li Yi no longer had the courage to test his ideas recklessly.

It would be an absolute tragedy if he were to die for the third time and had failed to trigger the Dark Honor to resurrect himself. He did not have a third Light Talisman on hand to revive himself.

Just when Li Yi was frowning and contemplating how to attack, a person dropped down from the sky. The person was wearing blue clothing that fluttered with the wind and has a Cresent Flute in hand. It was the Little Elf from the Magical Realm.

Did the Mirror Dimension disappear already?

Li Yi was taken aback. Similarly, Little Elf from the Magical Realm also took a double take when she saw him.

Li Yi turned to look at Mutated Yuge. Only then did realization hit him like a truck.

The Mirror Dimension was gone after they had cleared the previous two stages. Following this, all players that have successfully passed the stages would arrive here and work together to kill the Mutated Yuge.

"Ah!"

Li Yi could not help but hit his own palm when he realized that he has wasted two Light Talismans for nothing.

"What's going on? Are we no longer in the Mirror Dimension anymore?" Little Elf from the Magical Realm walked towards him.

Li Yi gazed at the Mutated Yuge helplessly. He kept on shaking his head and muttered, "Initially, I thought we're still in the Mirror Dimension. That belief has continued until I was shot by an arrow in the knee twice…"

Little Elf from the Magical Realm studied him for a moment and quickly picked up on the situation. She asked, "We're forming a party for the fight now, right?"

"Mhmm."

"Can't we solo this?"

"That thing has an attack power of 30,000. I don't know if you can handle it, but I know I had failed to withstand its blow. Feel free to try though, there's a chance that you might actually make it."

Little Elf from the Magical Realm chuckled. "If you failed, there's no doubt that I will not even stand a chance against that. Let's wait for the rest of the battalion."

Li Yi nodded. "That's the only thing we could do."

Then, he got closer to her and said, "Director Yang."
