Chapter 348: Chapter 262: The Scheming Undead Dwarf_2

“`

“We’ve prepared a super bomb made from the evil energy core of a goblin mecha, which if detonated, can obliterate a Spirit. Even if it doesn’t entirely obliterate it, it can contaminate the Spirit. Once contaminated by the evil energy, its destruction won’t be far off.”

Copperbeard·Skeleton Number One gripped his own skull and twisted it ninety degrees left and right as if trying to secure his head on his neck.

“How powerful is the explosion? How wide will the impact be?”

It’s best to avoid contact with evil energy whenever possible; once corrupted by it, a great deal of time would be required to cleanse it. In serious cases, it can even cause permanent damage to one’s strength.

So naturally, Zi Liyuan needed clear and detailed information first.

“It’ll definitely be more powerful than a full-force self-destruct from an Epic Boss; the impact range, I estimate, could be at least ten miles,” replied Copperbeard·Skeleton Number One, spreading his skeletal hands uncertainly.

“I’ve really got to hand it to you undead dwarves, creating a bomb of uncertain power.”

Why did it feel like these Undead Dwarves were so unreliable?

The uncertainty of the bomb’s power was comparable to the wiles of goblin salesmen.

At this moment, Zi Liyuan couldn’t help but worry whether the bomb would end up dragging him down with it when it exploded.

“Originally, we only obtained one damaged evil energy mecha. The energy core was salvaged with great difficulty—it’s the only one we have. We couldn’t exactly detonate it just to test its power, could we?” retorted Copperbeard·Skeleton Number One, still spreading his skeletal hands in helplessness.

“Fine, to bring down a Legendary BOSS, you’ve certainly gone to great lengths. Hand it over to me, and I’ll take care of the arrangements.”

Watching a cluster of Epic Bosses, along with the Legion of the Spectral Dragon and the Legion of the Dread Knight King, besiege the Legendary BOSS, Zi Liyuan’s gaze grew darker.

The surrounding death aura was gathering more intensely around the Legendary BOSS, signaling that another massive explosion was imminent.

Considering the likely devastation to his own Epic Bosses, Zi Liyuan promptly took out four Array Plates.

“No time to hesitate, let’s seal all nearby magic first. Even if we can’t completely prevent it from extracting the death aura from the Castle of the Undead, at least we can greatly slow down the speed of its gathering.”

Array Plates, Energy Barytes, and other materials for setting up arrays were taken out one after the other. Controlling a few vampires carrying the Array Plates, Zi Liyuan flew to the designated positions and immediately activated the skill.

In an instant, four areas, with the Legendary BOSS’s location as the overlapping center, stripped clean of all elemental magic.

The once gathering death aura, under the influence of the grand sealing array, became somewhat subdued. The Legendary BOSS struggled to mobilize it, its task becoming extremely difficult, and the rate at which the death aura gathered from the heavens and earth slowed by ninety percent!

“Four arrays, equivalent to counteracting the entire death aura in the Castle of the Undead. Originally they could have lasted half an hour, but now, they likely won’t last even fifteen minutes,” Zi Liyuan mused upon sensing the rapid consumption of the Energy Barytes.

Feeling the depletion, Zi Liyuan’s desire for this Castle of the Undead intensified even more.

However, as soon as he looked toward the battlefield within the grand array, his face immediately darkened.

In just a short span of time, nearly half of the Legendary BOSS’s health had been depleted, but his Undead BOSSes were also not faring well.

The health of the Epic Bosses had all dropped by more than a third—in particular, the Frost Giant’s health was nearing the halfway mark.

This was inevitable; after the Golden Behemoth was trapped, the Frost Giant took over as the main battle tank, enduring the brunt of the Legendary BOSS’s damage.

As for the Spectral Dragon replicas led by the Spectral Dragon King, they had already lost nearly half of their number.

The Legion of the Dread Knight King, led by the Nightmare Knight, also lost a third of their replicas.

Overall, the health of many Undead BOSSes under Zi Liyuan participating in the siege had all dropped by about a third.

“Damn it, even a half-crippled Legendary BOSS can be this tough; it’s simply preposterous.”

Holding a dark green crystal half the height of a person handed to him by Copperbeard·Skeleton Number One, Zi Liyuan felt the evil energy surging within and quickly stowed it in his Spatial Backpack.

Then he forcefully summoned back the Human-Faced Demon Spiders who were part of the offensive.

Lastly, he took out a skill scroll and placed it under the giant spider’s abdomen.

“`

“Charge in, grab the Legendary BOSS, then use this self-destruct scroll to give us an epic-level self-destruction!”

The self-destruct scroll, much like a Necromancer’s Corpse Explosion Technique, only required living beings or corpses to trigger a peak explosion—this was a genuine suicide skill scroll.

Zi Liyuan got hold of this thing, naturally intending to use it with the numerous BOSS corpses in his Spatial Backpack.

The Corpse Explosion Technique had limitations, and explosion power could be weakened, but the scroll had no such limitations and wasn’t subject to weakening. Even more, the strength of explosions from living beings or corpses would increase by 100%!

Such self-destruction, wasn’t it just like what Copperbeard·Skeleton Number One said, the power of an epic peak self-destruction?

No doubt about it, just do it.

Of course, self-destruction was an indiscriminate attack. Before blowing up, Zi Liyuan definitely needed to retreat all the undead BOSSes.

But this was also easy to handle, just directly disperse all the BOSSes back to the Netherworld right before the self-destruction, and all would be well.

“Ssss!”

The Spider Queen didn’t waste any words, simply nodded her head, then stretched out her eight spider legs and charged out.

“Old Tortoise, block for us ahead, get ready with defense skills, don’t get thrown away by the big explosion and then fall on us.”

After patting Old Tortoise’s mountain-like body, Zi Liyuan, with Fan Yuer and Copperbeard·Skeleton Number One in tow, hid behind the tortoise and cautiously peered out towards the battlefield.

Seeing the Spider Queen madly rush forward, she didn’t say a word. With her two long-bladed arms, she hugged the Legendary BOSS tightly in her embrace, then her eight spider legs, like steel hoops, clamped down on the Legendary BOSS.

The next moment, a massive blood-red energy appeared on the surface of the Spider Queen’s body.

The Spider Queen, originally of immense stature, started swelling up rapidly like an inflating balloon!

Zi Liyuan didn’t hesitate to sever a huge portion of the mental contracts from his mind, forcefully dispersing all the undead BOSSes back to the Netherworld.

And just as those BOSSes were swallowed into the swirling vortex of the Netherworld, a thunderous explosion rang out, echoing through the skies!

The entire Castle of the Undead trembled, dust filled the air, and even the clouds of death looming in the sky were ripped open by the blast, leaving a gap neither too big nor too small.

“Holy shit, what a formidable power!”

Looking at the large crater created by the self-destruction, Lord Zi made a comment and then waved his Magic Wand, summoning huge Array Plates before him.

Epic beast BOSSes, Black Dragon Sister, Spider Queen, Spectral Dragon King, Nightmare Knight…

One by one, the undead BOSSes made their appearance again, though their health had not recovered and they were still in the same battered condition as when the Legendary BOSS had taken them down.

“Continue killing!”

With a grand wave of his hand, the chorus of BOSSes roared in unison and launched another Charge towards the Legendary BOSS in the crater.

“You despicable Necromancer, I will tear you to pieces! Then piece you back together to make a Patchwork Monster! I’ll even turn your soul into an Eternal Lantern!”

The voice of indignant defeat echoed throughout the venue, as the Legendary BOSS slowly floated up from the crater.

At this moment, his body was tattered and rotten, flesh and bone decayed, various parts missing, and on his face, the ruined flesh was stuck to the skull, creating a ghastly and terrifying visage.

“Pfft, like big talk is hard to come by?”

Zi Liyuan sneered in response but quickly ducked his head back behind Old Tortoise.

It was precisely the moment he ducked back that a pitch-black blade of death shot past where he had just been.

Looking at the ground, which was now missing a large chunk as if sliced by a knife, Zi Liyuan broke into a cold sweat.

This damn Legendary BOSS was truly crafty, attempting a sneak attack while luring him to speak and show himself.

Had he not been vigilant, that strike just now would have certainly done him in!

“Damn it!”
