Chapter 42 – Second World BOSS, Zombie Emperor


A Great Start.

The first Lightning Spell triggered a 30% paralysis effect, causing the Zombie Emperor to be paralyzed for 0.5 seconds.

Taking this opportunity, Zhang Yue launched a combo.

Fireball!

Ice Spike!

Flame Missile!

Boom boom boom boom!

-754! -67 burn! -50 frostbite!

-1242 crit! Freeze! -50 frostbite!

-418! -770 crit! -770 crit!

After a series of combos, the accumulated damage reached over 5000, instantly taking down one-fifth of the Zombie Emperor BOSS’s health!

Su Jinyan, who was standing nearby, couldn’t help but be astonished: “Zhang Yue, how did your damage increase so much all of a sudden?”

“Did you forget? The Tyrant King dropped a 3-star equipment.”

Hearing Zhang Yue’s explanation, Su Jinyan was still incredulous, thinking: Is 3-star equipment really this powerful? It must be a 3-star equipment with Golden Attributes!

Just as Su Jinyan was thinking this, the Zombie Emperor had already recovered from Zhang Yue’s Ice Spike freeze.

It swung the massive chainsaw in its hand, slashing the ground.

Boom boom boom boom!

A streak of electric light formed a straight line, directly striking at Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue quickly used Blink to dodge the attack, but the Supreme Guild professionals watching from behind were not so lucky.

The electric light pierced through the crowd, causing a large area of skill damage as high as eight or nine hundred, instantly one-shot killing more than a dozen Supreme Guild professionals!

Liu Yao looked at the Supreme Carefree next to him, who was charred inside and out by the electric light, and couldn’t help but say, “Damn! That was close! Thank goodness!”

Just as the Zombie Emperor was about to launch a second attack.

Su Jinyan quickly cast a spell, and a Fireball hit the Zombie Emperor’s chest with a “boom.”

-23! Immobilized!

The Zombie Emperor’s defense was too high; Su Jinyan couldn’t deal any damage at all.

However, her immobilization control precisely interrupted the Zombie Emperor’s attack!

Taking this opportunity, Zhang Yue summoned the Silver Armored Scorpion and used the Fatal Earth Guard’s Fatal Guard skill to transfer 50 points of his defense to the Silver Armored Scorpion.

The Silver Armored Scorpion launched a Charge Assault, crashing into the Zombie Emperor.

-157! Stun!

Even as an Epic Grade Mage, he couldn’t deal any damage to the Zombie Emperor.

Yet Zhang Yue’s defensive Ironclad Scorpion could inflict three-digit damage on the Zombie Emperor.

Seeing this, Su Jinyan felt even more that Zhang Yue was unfathomable!

What she didn’t know was that the Silver Armored Scorpion’s A-grade Charge Assault came with true damage equal to 15% of its maximum health!

Taking advantage of the Zombie Emperor being stunned by the Silver Armored Scorpion’s charge, Zhang Yue, whose skills were all on cooldown, continuously attacked the Zombie Emperor with basic attacks.

-498! -50 frostbite!

-498! -50 frostbite!

-1047! -50 frostbite…

Since the BOSS had no mana bar.

The Demon Slayer effect of Inferno · Demon Slayer Messenger could directly give Zhang Yue an additional 200 points of damage per attack.

Coupled with the 100 points of damage effect from Magic’s Wrath, even Zhang Yue’s basic attacks dealt significant damage!

Su Jinyan controlled the timing of her skill releases.

Just as the Zombie Emperor was about to break free from the stun and launch an attack, she immediately used Radiant Bind to immobilize the Zombie Emperor!

Zhang Yue continued to chip away with basic attacks.

After both of them had exhausted their control skills, the Zombie Emperor suddenly stomped on the Silver Armored Scorpion, then slashed its back with a chainsaw.

-372!

-351!

Seeing this, Liu Yao in the rear quickly urged the nearby Priest professionals: “Hurry up! Heal that scorpion!”

Seven or eight 16th-level Priests from the Supreme Guild entered casting range, waving their wands to cast healing spells.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Seven or eight green lights fell on the Silver Armored Scorpion’s head, instantly restoring it to full health with each 100-200 points of healing.

At this moment, Zhang Yue, whose skills had just come off cooldown, launched another combo.

Accumulating over 5000 damage, the Zombie Emperor’s health bar dropped significantly!

Su Jinyan continued to control.

Zhang Yue chipped away with basic attacks.

Liu Yao cheered them on…

After repeating this process several times, Zhang Yue finished off the Zombie Emperor with a Fireball, dealing 1472 crit damage and clearing the last bit of its health bar!

Boom!

As the tall body of the Zombie Emperor fell to the ground.

The hearts of nearly a hundred Supreme Guild professionals in the rear finally relaxed!

“Ding~ Congratulations on killing the Second World BOSS [Zombie Emperor], Experience Points + (Contribution 75% + Last Hit 20%), Psionic Energy +w!”

The next moment, hundreds of announcements echoed throughout Nottingham City.

[Area Announcement] (Nottingham City): “Ding~ Congratulations to the professional [Zero] for defeating the Second World BOSS and clearing the Second World!”

[Area Announcement] (Nottingham City): “Ding~ Congratulations to the professional [Su Ya] for defeating the Second World BOSS and clearing the Second World!”

“Ding…”

At this moment, all the professionals in Nottingham City were in an uproar—

[Big Grey Machine] (Level 15 Knight): “It’s that Zero again? How is he so powerful? Could he be an Epic or Legendary Grade professional?”

[Reed Reed] (Level 14 Mage): “I wonder what this guy with the ID Zero looks like? I’d love to meet him!”

[So Outstanding] (Level 15 Assassin): “I’ve had the honor of seeing him once, just this afternoon! He’s quite handsome, but you upstairs shouldn’t get your hopes up. His relationship with the second young lady of the Su Family is quite special. Unless you’re confident you can surpass her?”

In a secluded corner outside Nottingham City, Chen Jun, who was secretly killing zombies to level up, saw these messages in the Nottingham City chat area and angrily stomped on a zombie’s head.

“Zhang Yue! Your days are numbered!”

In the World BOSS area.

After killing the BOSS, Zhang Yue and Su Ya approached the Zombie Emperor’s body to collect the loot.

World BOSSes, having been killed countless times by veteran professionals, had their value significantly reduced, far less valuable than BOSSes of the same quality that refresh in real-time.

As a 20th-level 3-star BOSS, the Zombie Emperor only dropped two pieces of 2-star equipment and a Warrior skill book · Heavy Slash.

And a few dozen scattered silver coins.

After dividing the loot.

Su Jinyan suddenly said to Zhang Yue, “Chen Jun’s whereabouts are currently unknown, and I don’t know where he is or what he’s doing.”

“But based on what I know about him, he will definitely find ways to retaliate against you! If I hear anything, I’ll let you know immediately. Zhang Yue, be careful from now on.”

“Got it.”

Su Jinyan exited the BOSS space through the blue vortex portal and returned to Nottingham City, logging off.

At this moment, Liu Yao ran over to Zhang Yue and said, “Thanks for helping me with the BOSS!”

“No problem.” Zhang Yue looked at Liu Yao, who seemed more genuine than annoying.

Helping him with the World BOSS was purely out of a slight pang of conscience for taking that million…

Liu Yao then asked, “Are you going to the Third World?”

“No.” Zhang Yue checked the time and said, “Logging off to sleep, I’ll go tomorrow.”

“Oh.” Liu Yao nodded and said, “I’ll transfer you ten thousand yuan, get yourself a late-night snack!”

For the first time, Zhang Yue didn’t know how to respond.

“Does your dad know he has such a spendthrift son?”

“My dad is even worse!” Liu Yao said, “He can lose hundreds of thousands in a night playing mahjong! He’s terrible but loves to play!”

Liu Yao made Zhang Yue understand what it means to be like father, like son…

Zhang Yue couldn’t be bothered to chat with Liu Yao, so he exited the BOSS space and logged off.

At this moment, a subordinate from the Supreme Guild asked Liu Yao, “Guild Leader, should we log off to sleep too?”

Liu Yao slapped the subordinate on the head: “Sleep your ass!”

“Follow me to the Third World to level up!”

With that, Liu Yao led a group of Supreme Guild professionals through the red vortex portal, directly entering the Third World.

On the other side.

Whoosh!

A flash of white light, and Zhang Yue returned to his rented apartment in the real world.

He called Zhang Zhao’s attending physician, Dr. Wang Hai, and learned that Zhang Zhao’s condition was stable. Zhang Yue then transferred two hundred thousand yuan to the hospital, instructing Dr. Wang to do everything possible to treat Zhang Zhao.

Afterward, Zhang Yue took a shower.

After showering, he prepared to sleep and get up early the next day to venture into the Third World.

Just then, Su Jinyan sent a Feixin message: “Zhang Yue, there’s an urgent matter to tell you!”

“I heard from the guild that Chen Jun has used his connections to gather a group of high-level veteran professionals to ambush you in the Third World!”

Before Zhang Yue could reply to Su Jinyan.

Liu Yao also sent a Feixin message: “Brother, help! Someone wants to kill me!”

“You’re the only one who can save me, bro!!”

Zhang Yue frowned slightly: “Can’t a guy get some sleep?”

With that, Zhang Yue closed Feixin, touched the mark on the back of his right hand for three seconds, and summoned the portal to log into the Otherworld.

Meanwhile, in the Su Family villa in Coastal City.

Wearing a light blue nightgown, sitting cross-legged on her bed, Su Jinyan looked at her Feixin chat with Zhang Yue and waited for a long time without receiving a reply.

Upon checking, she was surprised to find that Zhang Yue’s Feixin status had changed from the gray “offline” to the green “online” status!

This is a unique feature of Feixin when bound to the Otherworld.

Online means the person is in the Otherworld!

“Why did he log in again?”

Hesitating for a moment, Su Jinyan also logged into the Otherworld once more.
