The Lich King, Ner’zhul’s black vapor continued to spread, and within a short span of ten seconds, it had covered half of the great hall.
Li Yi was unsure of the consequences of touching the black vapor. What he did know, was that, should the black vapor continue to spread, he would be getting the short end of the stick.
The moment his True Overlord Arrow was fired, the fiery phoenix that it unleashed had forcibly driven back the black vapor toward its source. The fiery phoenix slammed into the Lich King, Ner’zhul with a cry.
When the phoenix cried, it meant that it had struck its target!
[−3766544]
A red-font damage counter appeared above Ner’zhul’s head, and the black vapor that was emitted from the helmet fizzled out.
“True Overlord Arrow!”
Seeing that his initial attack was effective, Li Yi pressed the attack. When it came to Ner’zhul, aside from his True Overlord Arrow, no other skill was effective.
All the monsterlings had been drawn away by Freya, and Alleria was firmly keeping Nar’iz occupied. Due to this, Li Yi could completely focus on Ner’zhul and not be troubled by other matters.
What made Li Yi suspicious, was that the Lich King had not returned fire even though he was protected by his black vapor. All he did was flee like a wild dog from his True Overlord Arrows.
With his insane mana regeneration and the aid of the sacred potions, Li Yi had no trouble fulfilling the requirements for spamming True Overlord Arrows.
Due to this, without even being able to retaliate, the Lich King had been downed by Li Yi.
Ding!
Several rays of light burst out of Ner’zhul’s corpse and scattered onto the floor.
“I am the Lich King. I possess an indestructible body. Just you wait, I WILL return…”
After muttering his final words, Ner’zhul’s body disintegrated into black vapor and returned to the coffin.
“My master! No…No!!”
Nar’iz wailed, and now that her master had died, she too had transformed into a black vapor that faded away.
Once the Lich King died, all the undead under its command also dispersed.
Clang!
The other Vampire Queen’s Devouring Short Sword that Nar’iz was holding dropped onto the ground.
“Aooooooooo—”
The undead that had gathered around Freya let loose their howls, and regardless of whether they were Blademaster Skeletons or zombies, they all turned into dust and scattered in the wind after Ner’zhul died.
Ding!
[Congratulations! You have leveled up!]
Ding!
[Congratulations! You have leveled up!]
Ding!
[Congratulations! You have leveled up!]
Three continuous rays popped out of Li Yi’s body. After successfully defeating Ner’zhul, he had advanced by 3 levels, and he was now Level 175!
“A Lich King that doesn’t retaliate?”
Li Yi clutched his Orange Quality Bow and stood still while he tried to process the situation.
Even he had found the events that transpired to be a bit unbelievable.
After all, the Dwelling of the Undead was one of the renowned Seven Secret Places in the Pantheon World, and the dangers that lied within it were nothing to scoff at. However, the battle he had just experienced was devoid of any danger, and he had easily breezed past it.
To be frank, the battle Li Yi had just gone through was not easy at all. However, due to various reasons, Li Yi was able to easily slay the Lich King.
The first reason was that when Li Yi had first arrived at the Dwelling of the Undead, he had stolen the Lich King’s Lord of Disaster.
This caused the Lich King, Ner’zhul to lose a significant portion of his offensive prowess.
Secondly, he had the God-tier Mount, Freya to aid him in rounding up the monsterlings. With her help, he no longer had to worry about being surrounded by monsterlings and was able to face the boss in a one-on-one battle, which had greatly reduced the boss battle’s difficulty.
Thirdly, Li Yi had learned the god-like skill, True Overlord Arrow. Without it, he would definitely not have been able to pierce the black vapor that was emitted by the weird helmet.
Had it not been for these few factors, could Li Yi have easily defeated the Lich King?
Regardless, the Lich King had been vanquished, and not a single monsterling was left in the Dwelling of the Undead. It was now time to gather the spoils.
Li Yi picked up the loot dropped by Ner’zhul and Nar’iz, and without even a moment’s pause, he quickly flew out of the palace hall in search of treasure chests.
The Dwelling of the Undead had numerous treasure chests scattered about, and now that were no monsterlings, Li Yi could open whichever chests he wished!
Ding!
[You have obtained the Skill Tome for Crimson Catastrophe.]
[You have obtained a Skill Tome for Horse-incapacitating Arrow.]1
[You have obtained a Shattered Emerald.]
…
While Li Yi was busy looting in the Dwelling of the Undead, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was filming a promotional advertisement for Shangri-La in a television studio.
The rate of Shangri-La’s progress was astounding. After a thorough discussion within Wang Enterprise, they had decided to invest the entirety of their funds into the program, in order to foster a ‘Virtual and Real’ entertainment empire.
Had this been in an era where simulation was still a far cry from reality, Wang Enterprise’s decision would have sounded comical. However, it was now an era where the line between simulation and reality had become hard to distinguish, and as such, Wang Enterprise’s decision was definitely the right call.
In the real world, Wang Enterprise was having a tough time advancing their business. They were constantly pressured by their rivals and they had no chance of bouncing back. Had they not recognized the opportunity provided by Shangri-La, the company would have been on the brink of collapse.
Back in Li Yi’s past life, after Wang Enterprise had made a large investment into the Shangri-La program, they quickly developed Shangri-La, and within a year, they had created an entertainment empire that bridged the gap between simulation and reality.
With income from both the virtual world and reality, several promotional advertisements, billboards, and being a rising industry, Wang Enterprise quickly encountered several competitors. However, as Shangri-La’s foundation was already set by then, their copy-cats had ended up with massive loses. In the end, they were swallowed whole by Wang Enterprise.
The reason Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s net worth had such an astronomical figure back in Li Yi’s past life was due to the success of the Shangri-La program.
Back in the studio, aside from the hostess who had thick makeup on, there was also a middle-aged scholar sitting beside Tyrant Sword King the Fifth.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was particularly excited that day, as the middle-aged scholarly-looking person sitting beside him was actually Lin Qian’s father. He was the figurehead of the Lin Household. He was also the crocodile of the business world. He was THE Lin Wenyu.
Just a few days ago, Lin Wenyu had personally promised Lin Qian to Tyrant Sword King the Fifth, and that their marriage would happen within half a year.
As such, how could not he be excited? He was about to film a promotional video with his future father-in-law after all.
The filming had begun, and the hostess was all smiles. She queried, “So, Director Lin, I heard your family’s about to invest in the Shangri-La project?”
“Yes, the Lin Household is ready to invest 500 Million into Shangri-La.” When Lin Wenyu spoke, his tone sounded mechanical and his face was devoid of all expression.
No one doubted Lin Wenyu’s capabilities, as it was under his guidance that the Lin Household had gained the foothold in society it had today.
Within the nation, the Lin Household was considered to be among the Four Most Affluent Households!
“Director Wang, what can you tell us about Shangri-La’s future prospects?”
“Shangri-La has great future prospects…”
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth began his presentation. His talent at talking had always been the real deal, and even Lin Wenyu faintly nodded his head at certain parts.
This was his way of showing approval towards his future son-in-law.
When Tyrant Sword King the Fifth saw his approval, his heart instantly burst with happiness and he explained with even greater passion.
Although Qian’er had explicitly stated her dislike towards him, what did it matter now that he had gained her father’s consent?
After all, all her family members had given their approval and were avidly supportive of the marriage. Qian’er was the one who was strongly against it, and since that was the case, why did her opinion matter?
…
Li Yi had been looking for treasure in the Dwelling of the Undead for an entire night. It was only after he was forcefully booted out by the system that was, he finally satisfied enough to return to Shattered Frost City to check his spoils.
He had found countless Purple Quality equipment, and multiple kinds of rare gemstones, including the Rainbow Diamonds he so desperately needed. All in all, he had gotten over twenty of the diamonds, which now allowed him to upgrade the Evil God Summoning Scroll.
Despite that, the most valuable rewards Li Yi had obtained were the equipment that he had gotten from the two bosses.
The life-stealing short swords he had obtained from Nar’iz was one of the best weapons for Thieves, and when used together, they could regain 30% HP from the life-steal effect alone. In other words, when they dealt 100 damage, they would also drain 30 points of HP.
With those swords, any Thief would become a Vampire. In theory, as long as the Thieves who wielded the two short swords were able to achieve the minimum attack threshold, they would have an unlimited supply of health.
Li Yi feared that the Thieves would go crazy over the short swords should he put them on auction…
After all, just obtaining one-half of the blades was already tough enough, but Li Yi was lucky enough to obtain both in one go.
The Devouring Short Swords were extremely rare, and when compared to the equipment dropped from the Lich King, they were trivial.
The Lich King, Ner’zhul had only dropped three items, but not even one was trash. They were all amazing pieces of equipment.
The first piece, Lich King’s Dark Cape.
[Lich King’s Dark Cape (Legendary level. Non-soul bound. When character dies, has a 30% chance of dropping.)]
[Requirements: 3000 STR, Dark Paladin.]
[+3000 P-DEF]
[+3000 M-DEF]
[Special Effect: Increase ATK SPD by 10%.]
[Lich’s Flight (Special Skill): Consumes a rune to allow the user to take flight momentarily.]
[Lich’s Protection (Special Effect): All damage taken from the back is reduced by 90%.]
…
Lich King’s Dark Cape did not contain many attributes, but it’s most useful one was undoubtedly Lich’s Protection.
With that special effect, players would be able to permanently use Shield Wall. Even if they faced danger, they would no longer need to worry about enemy sneak attacks, as the cape automatically reduced damage taken from the back…
It was a super amazing cape, and Li Yi would very much like it. Alas, the item was only usable by Dark Paladins.
Without a doubt, this item was going to belong to Queen Jiao soon.
As for the second item, it was an extremely rare Tool.
[Lich King’s Dark Crystal (Legendary-level, Soul-bound upon equipping)]
[Requirement: Dark Paladin]
[Special Effect: Increase Dark Attribute damage by 100 points.]
[Special Effect: Increase Rune regeneration rate by 30%.]
[Special Effect: Increase attack range.]
[Lich King’s Fury (Special Skill): Upon activation, the player’s size will increase ten-fold. The player’s ATK will also increase by 50%, and damage taken will be reduced by 50%. Duration of skill: 1 minute. Cooldown time: 60 minutes.]
Once again, this item was going to be Queen Jiao’s…
