Chapter 83 - The Weakest Beast King
“Huh…”
Ling Yi didn’t give chase after his attack landed. Instead, he quickly dodged to the side.
He didn’t realize how tiring this high-intensity battle was than what he had imagined.
In just a few seconds, he could already feel his physical strength depleting.
Even though he could stagger the Boss, if they fought back, he would probably lose in the end due to the lack of stamina. It wouldn’t be enough to last until his enemy burned to death,
He was able to kill the Wind God Butterfly so quickly last time, and the main reason for that was because the monster had used [Great Storm] with all its might that it tires itself out.
But compared to the Stone Man’s power output, he had to admit that the dust storm last time was a very powerful skill.
As Ling Yi continued to think, Stone Man turned around, glaring at him with its beady glowing green eyes.
Then, he picked up its giant ax and charged at him again.
Instead of running away, Ling Yi gathered whatever was left of his energy and charged forward.
He wanted to fight more monsters like this in the future!
…
After a minute or so, Ling Yi completely exhausted his physical strength. So, he handed the rest of the battle to the Queen.
She suppressed the Stone Man’s ax with her ice as soon as she entered the arena.
It didn’t take her more than ten minutes before she killed it.
[You’ve killed Giant Ax Stone Man (Boss) (level 30), +700 EXP]
[You have obtained… ]
After collecting all the spoils of war, Ling Yi opened the interface and looked at his current level.
[Level: 24 (2260/7500)]
If he only relied on killing monsters to level up, the challenge was enough to make people dispirited.
Fortunately, the exp could also be gained from God’s Path’s events, arena, and other aspects.
When these functions are available to them in the future, it would be faster for players to gain exp!
But since the amount exp per level will continue to grow the higher you get, the overall leveling speed should be about the same as now.
“Done,” Ling Yi said.
‘Since the monsters in these two stages have been cleared, then….’
He stood on a slope and looked into the distance.
A tall greenish-gray altar was located a few hundred meters away from where he was standing. The altar was about 100 meters tall, and it was said to have 300 steps.
On the platform at the top, there was a giant Golden Bell.
You can summon the Beast King of this area when you ring it.
“Tsk, tsk.”
Looking at the Golden Bell, Ling Yi was filled with mixed emotions.
Joy, pride, nervousness, apprehension …
Seeing that there was still 1 hour and 38 minutes left before his time to descend, he felt a little troubled.
‘The fourth and fifth stages’ Boss monsters have been eliminated. I have completed what I have set out to do for the day…. Should I continue to kill high-level monsters to level up? Or should I just call the Beast King out?‘
He had already re-read the information about the beginner-level Beast King on the forum several times.
Although the players could not see the Beast King’s attributes and skills as accurately, they managed to figure out the skills and overall attributes through the many expeditions they went on.
So, he was still quite confident that he would be able to defeat the beginner-level map Beast King, “Super Bubble Monster”.
‘Hmmm… It’s worth a try….‘
He’ll fight one sooner or later anyway, so he might as well call it out now.
With that thought in mind, Ling Yi leaped into the air and flew toward the altar at full speed.
It didn’t take him long before he reached the side of the giant Golden Bell.
According to the forum, all he needed to do was to push the bell hard enough to make it ring, and it would immediately summon it.
Ling Yi placed his hand on the surface of the Golden Bell, silently feeling the wave-like patterns indent on the surface. Then, without any hesitation, he pushed it with all his might.
Dong Dong Dong
“Let’s go!” Ling Yi quickly pulled the Ice Queen’s tender hand and retreated away from the altar.
He flew a safe distance, a thousand meters away, before landing on the back of a large rock.
Then, he turned around and looked at the sky above the altar.
According to the players, the Super Bubble Monster will descend from the clouds above the altar after the Golden Bell is rung. Then, it will scan the entire scene. If it finds any players, it will attack them instantly…
Ling Yi wasn’t prepared to fight this Beast King yet, which was why he retreated to a safe distance.
After the Beast King appeared, it didn’t matter if he wanted to fight or not.
The weather was clear, and the wind was gentle. Then the pure white clouds, like pieces of marshmallows, piled up directly above the altar under the blue sky.
Two seconds later, an orange-yellow beam of light suddenly descended from the clouds and shone directly on the altar.
Immediately after, a massive, furry, unknown life form slowly appeared from the clouds and descended on the light pillar.
Although he had seen the true face of this Beast King through various channels, he still couldn’t help but feel that it was ridiculous to see it for the first time.
This snow-white, furry ball-shaped creature… was a Beast King?
He had always imagined that the Beast Kings were like giants with majestic bodies, just like the five-crowned Dragon in District 87 or the sea-overturning Demon Whale that once caused global panic. Just their appearance alone was enough to make one’s heart tremble!
This ‘cute’ Beast King was utterly different from the other Beast Kings.
Ling Yi had reason to believe that God’s Path was being kind to the newbies.
“I should look up this weakest Beast King of all Beast Kings’ attributes.”
Super Bubble Monsters were publicly acknowledged as the weakest Beast Kings.
This was, without a doubt.
Ling Yi activated [Eye of Truth] and began to check its attributes from a thousand meters away.
[Super Bubble Monster (level 30)]
[Type: Beast King]
[Attributes: strength 300, mana 900, agility 300, endurance 600, Constitution 300]
[Skills: Bubble Summon (7 Stars), Bubble Shield (7 Stars), Advanced Damage Increase (8 Stars) (Passive), Rainbow Heaven (8 Stars)]
[Current Status: Healthy]
“Sh*t…” Ling Yi frowned as he read the panel in front of him. “As expected, it’s very all-rounded.”
‘Even its lowest attribute is 300 points. It’s still much higher than what a level 30 player would have.‘
‘But… It’s not too outrageous.‘
Looking at the Beast King’s attributes, Ling Yi couldn’t help but compare its attributes to the Ice Queen’s.
The Ice Queen’s five attributes were the same, and after his observation, he found that these five attributes were 15 times that of other monsters of the same level.
When she reached level 30, all her attributes would reach 450 points.
Some of her attributes were lower than the cute Beast King, but some also exceeded them. This Super Bubble Monster was at the bottom of the Beast King level, so he could roughly estimate that the Ice Queen’s strength was indeed on the same level as a Beast King.
Her power was between a Leader monster and a Boss monster.
Ling Yi turned to look at the Ice Queen.
Her soft and elegant little hand was still firmly held in his palm. He could feel how smooth and cool it was against his warm hand, which was soothing to the touch.
Since he was holding her hand, she couldn’t float very high, and her delicate snow-white feet were only a few centimeters above the ground.
