Chapter 41 – Purgatory: Demon Slayer Messenger


Roar! Roar! Roar!

Endless zombies surged towards Nottingham City from all directions.

The professionals within the city grabbed their weapons and fought back fiercely.

At this moment, Zhang Yue, who had just finished dinner, logged in.

In just ten minutes, he killed 50 zombies.

The third wave of the Zombie Tide was successfully repelled!

Next, they just needed to wait an hour for the tide to recede, and they could complete the world mission and challenge the Second World’s BOSS!

Before that, Zhang Yue submitted the level 15 King Grade bounty mission [Zombie Crisis] he had completed during the day.

“Ding~ Congratulations on completing the lv15 King Grade bounty mission [Zombie Crisis]. Rewards: Experience Points +, Gold Coin +1, Psionic Energy +w (with ten thousand times amplification), Equipment [Demon Slayer Ring] +1, Skill Book [Lightning Spell] +1, Elite Grade Pet Egg +1!”

Whoosh!

Two beams of golden light descended on Zhang Yue’s head.

“Ding~ Congratulations on reaching level 19…”

“Ding~ Congratulations on reaching level 20… Next level requires more experience points!”

Opening the status panel, Zhang Yue saw he still had 110,000 experience points left!

Just 10,000 more experience points to reach level 21!

However, Zhang Yue allocated all 110,000 experience points to the Silver Armored Scorpion.

Under the Necromancer’s profession effect [Death Reduction], pet leveling experience was halved.

The Silver Armored Scorpion’s level instantly soared from 15 to 18!

In the past two days in the Second World, Zhang Yue had killed thousands of zombies and captured over twenty Common Grade zombies through [Soul Harvest].

He had evolved them into two Elite Grade zombies.

With the Elite Grade Pet Egg from this mission, he still needed 7 more Elite Grade pets to upgrade the Silver Armored Scorpion’s quality from Elite Grade to Rare Grade!

No rush, take it slow.

With the profession effect [Undead Evolution], the Silver Armored Scorpion would eventually evolve into a Mythic Grade pet!

Zhang Yue spent a million Psionic Energy to upgrade the Lightning Spell from D-grade to A-grade!

[Super Lightning Spell] (A-grade)

[Effect: Summons a lightning bolt to attack a single enemy, dealing 300% magic damage]

[Special Effect: 30% chance to paralyze the enemy for 1 second (paralyzed state prevents any action)]

[Cost: 95 Mana]

[Cooldown: 5 seconds]

“Not bad, another single-target burst skill.”

Saying this, Zhang Yue took out the only piece of equipment from the rewards: the Demon Slayer Ring.

As expected, it was of 3-star quality!

Without hesitation, Zhang Yue used One-click Refinement, consuming 90,000 Psionic Energy to upgrade the Demon Slayer Ring from white to gold!

[Inferno · Demon Slayer Messenger] (lv20, Gold)

[Quality: 3-star]

[Profession: Mage, Beast Tamer]

[Magic Attack Power: 155]

[Additional: Intelligence +10, Spirit +10]

[Attribute: Demon Slayer (Each attack burns 200 Mana from the enemy. If the enemy’s Mana is insufficient, it deducts an equal amount of Health)]

[Description: A legendary ring that sealed a demon, coming from hell and heading towards darkness…]

In comparison, the lv7 1-star [Glory · Lord’s Battle Ring] Zhang Yue was wearing seemed too low-grade!

So, he immediately replaced it.

The moment he wore the dark red [Inferno · Demon Slayer Messenger], which seemed to flow with blood, Zhang Yue felt his entire body’s blood rushing to his right hand.

His attack power instantly soared from 373 to 518!

Bounty missions were indeed the fastest way to level up and increase strength!

Additionally, he gained 4 Gold Coins.

Gold Coins in the Second World were slightly devalued compared to the First World, but 4 Gold Coins were still worth about 50,000 yuan!

However, with the 1 million yuan given by Liu Yao, Zhang Yue no longer needed money in reality.

These Gold Coins could be used in the Otherworld!

Soon, the Zombie Tide receded.

The long-awaited system notification finally arrived for Zhang Yue.

“Ding~ Congratulations on completing the Second World mission. The Second World BOSS channel is now activated. Defeat the world BOSS to proceed to the Third World!”

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Liu Yao led a group of professionals from the Supreme Guild, successfully repelling the Zombie Tide, and received the system notification about attacking the Second World BOSS.

However, the group of 16-17 level players gathered together, facing a dilemma.

“The strategy says the Second World’s Zombie Emperor BOSS is a level 20 3-star. With our current level and strength, it might be tough to beat!”

“But the drop rate for common monsters in the Third World is significantly higher. We need to get there early to develop better!”

Just as Liu Yao and his team were at a loss.

Suddenly, Liu Yao received a Feixin message from Zhang Yue: “I’ll help you with the world BOSS.”

“Holy crap!” Liu Yao excitedly slapped Supreme Carefree unconscious: “The big shot is going to help us with the world BOSS!”

Liu Yao immediately replied: “Great, where?”

Zhang Yue sent his location to Liu Yao.

At this moment, Su Jinyan sent a Feixin message to Zhang Yue: “Want to team up for the world BOSS?”

With the 3-star ring [Inferno · Demon Slayer Messenger], Zhang Yue was confident he could solo the Second World’s BOSS.

However, with the help of a Forbidden Mage, the chances of victory would be even higher!

So, Zhang Yue replied: “Sure.”

Soon, the three parties met in Nottingham City.

A level 20 Mythic Grade Necromancer, a level 19 Epic Grade Forbidden Mage, and a level 17 Elite Grade Sword and Shield Warrior.

Plus a group of level 16 common professionals.

Zhang Yue created a team, inviting Su Jinyan and Liu Yao, forming a hundred-member group.

To attack the world BOSS, a maximum of a hundred members could team up.

Following that, they opened the BOSS channel and entered the world BOSS domain.

Whoosh!

With a shift in vision, they appeared in a city shrouded in darkness, resembling a ruin.

In the distance, a giant zombie, seven to eight meters tall, stood in the city.

lv20 Zombie Emperor (Physical Type · 3-star BOSS)!

The blood-red ID floating above the giant zombie’s head intimidated the level 16 professionals from the Supreme Guild.

Previously, a level 17 3-star Zombie King could easily crush them, and now, this was a level 20 3-star BOSS!

At this moment, Zhang Yue faced the BOSS and said to the Supreme Guild members behind him: “Don’t move.”

Then, he turned to Su Jinyan beside him and said: “You also stay back, don’t get too close to the BOSS, it can one-shot you.”

Su Jinyan nodded: “I know.”

After speaking, Zhang Yue summoned the Silver Armored Scorpion and launched an attack on the Zombie Emperor!

Roar!

With a deafening roar, the Zombie Emperor turned its head sharply.

“Humans, do you also want to taste the flavor of death?”

“Holy crap!” Liu Yao was startled: “A talking zombie?”

At this moment, Supreme Carefree was worried: “This morning, when we fought the Zombie King in the Secret Realm, Zhang Yue’s damage barely broke its defense.”

“This Zombie Emperor is also a 3-star BOSS, and its level is three levels higher than the Zombie King. I’m afraid Zhang Yue won’t be able to damage it.”

Hearing this, Liu Yao was stunned: “Damn! Why didn’t you analyze this earlier? I have no more revives left!”

Supreme Carefree adjusted his glasses: “When he invited you, you agreed too quickly, and I was knocked out by you.”

“It’s over, we’re dead!” Liu Yao suddenly took out a scroll: “Ah! Luckily, I brought a Return Scroll, now I’m not afraid!”

Everyone: “…”

On the field, Zhang Yue first checked the Zombie Emperor’s stats.

750 attack, 320 defense, 100,000 health!

Zhang Yue weighed his 518 attack.

With a “boom,” a Super Lightning Spell summoned a lightning bolt from the sky, striking the Zombie Emperor.

-794 Paralyze! -50 Frostbite!

Seeing the damage numbers above the Zombie Emperor’s head, Liu Yao, who was holding the Return Scroll and ready to run, suddenly widened his eyes.

“Holy crap! Awesome!”
