Chapter 22 First Nightmare Clear— Legend Reward! The Light attribute was burning him. “So painful…… Damn human, I’ll kill you!” Ziles looked at Su Ming with resentment. He stretched out his twisted hand and a large amount of devil fog gushed out, forming evil spirits. They suddenly flew towards Su Ming. 『Evil Spirit Onslaught!』 Summon evil spirits with 50% of summoner’s attack power and 500 HP. Lasts for 30 seconds. Ten evil spirits reached out their sharp claws and tore through Su Ming’s body. -438! -438! However, Su Ming was only hitted twice. The『Frost Breaker』shield was shattered. Sharp icicles swept through the nearby area of 10 meters. The evil spirits suffered a heavy blow and disappeared into thin air.
『Berserk!』 Su Ming did not hesitate to activate this buff of his. Critical chance +100%! Critical damage +200%! “Hehe, see if I don’t smash your rotten face.” He took out his staff and ruthlessly smashed it at Ziles. Bang bang bang…… -326! +200! -326!
+200! …… Even if the Boss had 650 physical defenses, Su Ming’s attacks still dealt more than 300 damage each time he attacked. He even recovered his health during the process. Four strikes within a second! Ziles’ HP was slowly depleted. Su Ming only used healing skills on the Boss. On the one hand, it could cause damage and generate Berserk points. On the other hand, he relied on『Battle Endurance』to maintain his health at a safe level. Even though the healing technique only had a single digit of damage… …The Boss’s HP was at 96.5%. 94.2%… …91.2%…
…… As time passed, Ziles’ HP continued to drop. Su Ming skills being put on a cooldown has increased the Berserk point, allowing him to be able to maintain『Berserk』for almost indefinitely. He only has a one second cooldown for every two activations of『Berserk』. -5! -326! -326! -326! …… Su Ming’s attacks continuously landed on Ziles’ body.
In just three minutes, the Boss’s HP dropped to 15512. However, Su Ming’s HP did not decrease at all.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred! “Hand over your life!” Ziles’ suddenly used a combination of skills. A black fog appeared on its body, forming a mirror avatar with 50% of its attributes. The next moment, the avatar’s arms turned into tentacles. Its fingers were like a beast’s teeth as they fiercely bit Su Ming’s arm. 『Life Drain!』 The beast teeth glowed red. -1118! +56! -443! +22!
Not only did Su Ming receive two massive damage, but he also generated two recovery numbers.『Blood Reflux』was activated and the Boss’s life steal effect’s efficiency was reduced by half. “Damn it, why can’t I absorb your health?” Ziles and his avatar said in disbelief. Su Ming ignored the Boss’s exclamation. He summoned the holy light elemental to heal himself. Then, he directly activated『Berserk』, and then he swung his the back of his stick at the enemy. In less than half a minute, he emptied the remaining HP of the boss. “I am the Water Demon King, the only king from ancient times until now—Ziles! Humans, fear…… One day…… My body will descend again……” Before Ziles was about to die, he spouted threats, and his body slowly disappeared. The sound of “ding ding ding” continuously resounded in Su Ming’s ears. In a blink of an eye, the spoils of war piled up on the ground into a small hill, emitting colorful lights. The system announcement rang out crazily. “Ding! World Announcement:”
“Congratulations to the player [Cang Hai] on killing the Water Demon King, Ziles. A reward will be given for the first Lord Boss kill. EXP gained: 2000. +1,000 reputation points. Received 10,000 gold. Legendary Degree +1. Free attribute points +10.” “Congratulations [Night Blade]’s team member [Cang Hai] for successfully clearing the Nightmare difficulty『Water Demon Palace』. Congratulations to [Night Blade] for getting the first Nightmare difficulty Boss kill. EXP gained: 2000. +1000 reputation points. 5,000 gold coins. Free attribute points +5.” “……” All the online players have been bombarded with a series of system notifications. The two announcements were popped on the screen twelve times, as if pouring cold water on the hot oil once was not enough. The Blue Star players went into a turmoil. “F*ck! I’m not convinced how the damned Dragon Kingdom can obtain the first world announcement.” “The strongest player can only hail from our country! The Dragon Kingdom must have cheated; I want the officials to investigate!” Facing the announcement, the foreign players were in disbelief. “What a silly comment! Where did come from? Don’t tell me that aliens who brought this game belong to your country, haha……” “I thought [Tian Xuan] could get the first kill. I didn’t think it would be the [Night Blade] guild.”
“This player called Cang Hai, is he the leader of the Night Blade Guild? How powerful.” The regional players were extremely happy, but they did not expect that the guild that received the first kill reward would be the ranked 14th guild, [Night Blade]. At this moment, the other town of Holy Light Kingdom, Copper Eagle Town. This was the home ground of [Tian Xuan]. It was also the only big guild with an official background. They mobilized the top ten experts from the guild and formed a strategy group. Three of them were ranked in the top twenty on the world leaderboard, and there was also a top commander among them. The target of this strategy team was to tackle the Nightmare difficulty dungeon『Dark Forest』. At this moment, the exploration progress of their team had just reached 70%.
