Chapter 243: Chapter 210: Necromancer VS Dragon Vein Warrior

(Chapter 208: The same 200+ characters got repeated. Lao Xu didn’t notice at first, but now it has been fixed. Brothers, you can refresh chapter 209, there is now an additional 200+ words of plot at the end.)

No matter how Zi Liyuan looked, he felt that most of the Dragon Vein Warrior’s combat power came from his blood-colored equipment.

As the battle progressed, he became more and more certain that the opponent was showing off his prowess purely because of his equipment.

Helmets, armor, shoes, pants, gloves… Each piece of equipment was activated one by one, and powerful skills were deployed, which then transformed into buffs that stacked upon himself.

Zhuge Long’s strength also began to increase drastically after the explosion of skills. When the skills of his entire set of equipment had been used, a total of six different enhancement buffs had been stacked upon him.

His overall strength increased by 100%, and once the six enhancement states had been added, the duration of the first buff, which was about to end, was instantly refreshed.

The six enhancement buffs all had the same duration—10 minutes.

It could be said that this set of buffs allowed Zhuge Long to utilize them for a full 20 minutes.

20 minutes—that’s not a short time. Being able to burst forth with full power for twenty minutes without any side effects shows how powerful his set of blood-colored equipment is.

It is said that the equipment of a Dragon Vein Warrior grows with the warrior himself. This means that this guy is currently only Third Order LV80, but when he breaks through to Fourth Order LV100, his equipment will become even more powerful.

“I’m kind of tempted to strip off his set of equipment.”

From the beginning, when Lao Tie clashed with Zhuge Long and was slightly at a disadvantage—and that was only a contest of strength—

who would have thought that as the fight continued, Zhuge Long would keep getting stronger? By the time the six buffs were stacked, he was already able to thoroughly beat down Lao Tie.

Of course, this beating was only on the surface. With Lao Tie’s monstrous attributes, each collision, even if he was not advantageous in strength and was beaten back, didn’t actually cause much damage.

How could Lao Tie’s dual resistance be considered less than the Spider Queen’s?

Do you think Legendary BOSSes are just for show?

With Lao Tie, the Spider Queen, and the Spider Demon attacking together, Zhuge Long, who initially attempted a teleport assault without success, was continuously held back by the three great BOSSes and never got a chance to attack Zi Liyuan himself.

And that’s not all; Zi Liyuan had plenty of undead summons.

The Wraith Mage King led a team of Wraith Mages to occasionally focus fire with a death ray, making Zhuge Long too busy to be negligent.

Nearly two thousand Spectre Skeleton Mages were also not idling. As soon as their “Death Decay” skills came off cooldown, they would cast it underneath Zhuge Long.

Two thousand instances of Death Decay, even if Zhuge Long’s enhanced strength made it impossible to breach his defense, could still potentially cause mandatory 1 point of damage.

Aren’t mosquito legs meat too, no matter how small?

Perhaps it’s this critical 1 point of damage that becomes the last straw to break the camel’s back?

That wasn’t enough as, in the meantime, the Blood Race Ghost King led a large group of Vampires to make a blitz attack, causing disturbance to Zhuge Long in their moments of engagement.

At the same time, the Phantom King wasn’t idle. This was a BOSS capable of causing spirit and Spirit attacks. Although not particularly powerful, he could still break through Zhuge Long’s resistance and injure him.

As for the Zombie King and the zombie army, as well as the 20 Dread Knight Kings and the Dark Knight Squad, they had not yet taken the stage and were temporarily shelved by Zi Liyuan.

To unleash all available summons against just one Zhuge Long would be overkill.

There was no need, absolutely no need.

“I wonder how the growth-type equipment for Necromancers is and how easy it is to get. After this round of reaping, I can check out the information on this.”

Truthfully, Zi Liyuan has never been short of equipment.

With the long legs of his lucky goddess wife to embrace, equipment flows to him like a river, eagerly crowding into his arms.

Thus he has gotten into the habit of wearing whatever good equipment he gets since it comes so easily.

Of course, his first choice of equipment is still the set that comes with special effects.

Perhaps in individual attributes, the set might be inferior, but in overall effect, it’s definitely better than single pieces.

And do you think he has prepared only one set of equipment for himself?

Naïve!

He has a set of regular equipment on his person, a substitute set in his backpack for any immediate replacement, and three sets that push the limits of base attributes to their extremes.

The last three sets naturally correspond to three types of basic attributes, each one stacking a single attribute to the utmost limit that the current level’s equipment can increase.

For instance, the extreme set that only increases Spiritual Power is prepared for when he uses the Netherworld Crystal to modify skills, which requires an enormous amount of Spiritual Energy.

While Zi Liyuan was caught off-guard, once again a change occurred on the battlefield.

A roar as if from a Giant Dragon echoed, and a fierce force burst forth from Zhuge Long’s body, creating a shockwave that directly sent the three BOSSes flying.

The next moment, Zhuge Long uttered a peculiar chant, and as the chant left his lips, the previously ethereal wings of the Giant Dragon separated into a streak of light from his back.

The phantom of a Giant Dragon was slowly outlined above him and, in the blink of an eye, another mighty dragon roar sounded.
