Chapter 636: Chapter 636: The Real Monster
“I should activate the Array first.”
Li Yao activated the Array directly, a flicker of concealed light flashed, but before it attracted anyone’s attention, it disappeared again.
The players engaged in the battle didn’t notice, but a decayed force began to manifest.
However, it was not normal decay.
In the normal course of events, the decay of corpses would be synonymous with putrefaction, but the operation of the decaying force now had a different effect. The bodies of the monsters and players did not decay, but instead turned ash-grey.
Threads of grey gas slowly emerged. As the gas was released, it slowly circulated according to a certain rule, rather than dispersing like ordinary gas.
“We’ve been fighting almost all night, from when the monsters were too numerous to count to now only a few remaining,” the voice of the Beast Speaker echoed across the square. “We’ve suffered heavy losses, but we are about to win. Only two bosses remain now, and the other scattered monsters are of little consequence. Once we take down the two bosses, not only will we not incur losses, but we’ll also gain massive experience and mountains of Warcraft materials for us to gather.”
The players now were a bit numb. They began with a hesitation to level up and then turned into a reckless frenzy after dying numerous times. Now that their passion had burned out, only numbness remained.
The only motivation for them now was to take down the two Warcraft bosses. Even though the two bosses together were tougher than the Ogre Priest they encountered not long ago, they were truly prepared to face death without fear.
“Kill!” A radiance appeared in the Beast Speaker’s hand and he tore a scroll with a purplish glimmer.
At the same time, Prosperous Era’s Young Master and Prosperous Era’s Cousin also tore the purple scrolls in their hands.
Countless semi-transparent magic shields emerged, increasing all the player’s health by approximately a third, and they also gained an extra shield that reduced any damage by 30%.
“They really are crazy. Prosperous Era is truly going all in,” Tanuki exclaimed as he almost popped his eyes at the sight of the three rays of light.
“What’s happening?”
“Damn, how did our health increase so suddenly?”
“They’re so rich it’s scary. What kind of insane item is that? Its effects are too powerful.”
It should be noted that Prosperous Era’s player base was at least ten times larger than Starfire’s. Three scrolls could cover tens of thousands of people, which was no small feat.
“Oh, I got it. This is what they call a Legion Battle Scroll.” Tanuki gasped in surprise.
“Did you figure it out? What is it?”
“Stop beating around the bush.”
“You’re not being fair, little Tanuki.”
The audience and their friends were not happy, especially the members of the guild. After learning about such a powerful item, they won’t be able to rest in peace.
Tanuki smiled and said, “They didn’t send me the specific attributes of the Scroll. All I know is that it is a Legion Battle Scroll. Perhaps you are not unfamiliar with a Legion Scroll; it is a wide-ranging magic scroll. This type of scroll is a kind of buff.”
Tanuki took a deep breath and continued, “What makes the Scroll from Prosperous Era precious is the word ‘Battle’. You should know that with ordinary scrolls, if you die, the effect is lost. But with the word ‘Battle’, so long as the buff duration isn’t over, even if you die and resurrect, the effect will still be active.”
Everyone gasped. Many people knew very well that even ordinary Legion Scrolls were not easy to obtain. These things were priceless, not something you could get just because you had money.
Even more, the highly valuable Legion Battle Scrolls; Prosperous Era actually brought out three at this critical moment.
Just the effects they could see, an increase in health and damage resistance, were already impressive, and everyone knew there were other unknown attributes too.
Looking at the square, previously flashing white, it is clear how terrifying the Legion Scrolls are by noticing how much the battle lines stabilized since their activation.
“They are indeed a super guild.”
Li Yao shook his head. He had never underestimated these guilds. These superguilds had extremely wide-ranging connections. They could get involved in even the rarest tasks, something that absolutely could not be compared with Starfire.
“However, let them rejoice for half an hour. Next…”
Murmuring to himself, Li Yao jumped directly off the wall of this guild’s city.
Li Yao blended into the shadows, swiftly traversing the mountain roads of Stone Claw Peak.
Some ten minutes later, Li Yao arrived at a peak that was filled with the smell of decay. The mountain was home to flowers, grass, and trees that had decayed for uncountable years. It was unknown how many years they have been withering.
Li Yao looked up from the bottom of the mountain and saw a small plateau at the top. He activated his wings and landed on the platform.
At the end of the platform was a dark cave.
Li Yao didn’t take this lightly. He slowly approached the cave step by step. As he neared the cave, the smell of decay and ashes intensified.
As Li Yao continued, he turned a corner and the view in front of him suddenly cleared, a huge cave now before him.
The cave was filled with a strong smell of decay, making everything look hazy. Li Yao quickly used a Breathing Purification Potion; otherwise, his health would decrease by 1% every second.
Even stranger was that this cave appeared to be some gigantic nest, shaped like a huge pit.
Layers of white bones covered the base of the cave. Li Yao could distinguish that these bones belonged to a variety of different creatures.
The number of these bones was incalculable, making for a terrifying and bizarre sight.
What was most unusual was that at the bottom of the large pit in the cave, where it appeared like a bird’s nest, many relatively fresh and even un-decayed corpses lay.
These corpses gave off a strong smell of ash and decay. The smell was like a tether, leading to two egg-shaped formations as tall as two men, situated in the center of the nest.
On the other side, two gigantic, about 30-40 yards in diameter black holes, their destinations unknown, could be seen.
Deepest inside the cave, two mounds of flesh captured Li Yao’s attention the most.
“I was right, Centipede Decayed Worms.” Li Yao broke into a smile. If these two monsters weren’t present, it would indeed be troubling.
The two flesh mounds were actually like giant centipedes. They seemed to be deeply asleep.
On their bodies, coursework flashed with a dark, gloomy light. Li Yao investigated and indeed, they were skeletons. Using the Eye of the Creator, Li Yao saw the monsters’ level and rank: level 60 Warcraft Superior Bosses.
Li Yao didn’t make any rash moves, but patiently stayed where he was.
He could remain unnoticed at the edge by using his skills, but it was impossible to enter the nest undetected.
Li Yao patiently waited for the right moment. Rumor had it that every day at 4 Am, these worms would return to the depths of the earth to collect earth fire. Especially when a Decay Worm Egg is in the worms, apart from the air of decay, they require massive elemental energies.
However, they have no elemental abilities and can only rely on earth fire to absorb the elemental power of earth and fire to accelerate the hatching process of the worm eggs…
