Chapter 465: Gruesome Raymen
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Inside the steel pipeline, the party led by Li Yi was left with 312 men and they were all out of Light Amulets.
Staring at the strolling multicolored raymen up ahead, they were at the ends of their rope, out of ideas to tackle the issue at hand.
If Mislead and Pseudocide were useless, what other ways could they use?
Li Yi was cracking his head and was unable to recall the strategy to kill raymen. The way to play this thing was not mentioned in Qian'er's book of strategies. It only recorded tactics against the five bosses in Glory.
Li Yi took a peek at the Raymen's HP through Divine Looking Glass. Each of them has three million HP and was at Elite level. Killing one was no issue but facing over a hundred raymen with this little party members was a problem.
If they were to go at it with brute force, they needed at least 5,000 men.
"Guild Master, can't you come up with anything?"
Little Drunk Cat's No. 1 Ice Wizard, Wang Wang Dumping was still depending on Li Yi.
"Why don't I just attempt Mislead?"
"No..."
"No no..."
Li Yi's words immediately stirred the crowd to raise and shake their hands about. His earlier virtuosic Pseudocide left the entire party dead. They were not ready to face this treatment the second time.
The party members' spirits were dampened, so was Li Yi's. Qian'er's book did not mention a thing about this group of raymen and only wrote about tackling bosses. He has also never read any other strategies pertaining to Glory dungeon.
Li Yi waved his hand, "Step back, I'm going give it another go."
Li Yi has only one Light Amulet left in the party, while the others had used theirs up.
Flower Underpants brought them to step back. Li Yi transformed into Lightning Leopard and crept near with Stealth.
Raymen were loitering about, unaware of Li Yi's presence. Li Yi tested this for a long time before setting his mind at rest to sprint ahead.
The length of time in Beast Soul's Possession state was too short. Even with his current Level 20 on the skill, he could only remain in it for two minutes.
"Intruder!"
"Who dares disrupt Lord Yuge's rest? Die!"
"Die!"
Li Yi was discovered when he passed by the first rayman. These raymen has sensitive Sensory so nobody could go pass them with Stealth.
With a laser beam shot over, Li Yi dispersed his transformed state and activated God Mode and Violent Bear's Protection to launch a series of Eliminate against the first rayman.
Raymen's laser beams were quick and ruthless. It could not be avoided if a dodge was not predicted prior to the laser being shot.
Li Yi was firing shots while retreated diagonally, evading the majority of the beams but still keeping his eye on that rayman.
Bp! Bp! Bp! Bp! Bp!
Elimination Arrow was a ranged skill, an enhanced version of Powered-up Arrow. One shot was a string of attacks. Li Yi could deal high damage so the HP bar on the rayman's head was decreasing with at least 30,000 per hit.
However, a rayman's HP was still too high at 3,000,000.
Li Yi's 100,000 HP was not able to hold out for long, he managed to knock off at least half of the rayman's HP when several hundred lasers blasted him to smithereens.
An uneventful death.
With a flicker of white light, Li Yi used Light Amulet to resurrect thirty meters back.
Without many of them who were able to take these raymen head-on and Stealth out of the question, they were in a stalemate.
Li Yi helplessly shook his head.
"Guild Master, let me try."
Pretty Good Mood walked over and behind him, followed his 90,000,000 HP pet, Scarab King.
Li Yi nodded. Although he did not put much confidence in Pretty Good Mood, he could still gain some knowledge from battling with raymen.
"Ol"Cab, you're up!"
Pretty Good Mood ordered Scarab King to crawl ahead while he hid behind it.
Tch tch! Tch tch!
Scarab King trilled with delight as it stepped and stopped, stepped and stopped, crawling ahead at snail's pace.
It could not be helped. Scarab King was practically blind. Unless a prey entered within its sensory range, it traveled as quick as a snail.
After the few days of practice, Pretty Good Mood grew some brains and had Scarab King move ahead while he remained behind at a maximum distance of twenty meters to lower all risks to a minimum.
Tch tch! Tch tch!
After a minute, Scarab King has crawled less than thirty meters...
When it finally got into the attack range of raymen, the group of monsters immediately laid siege.
"Intruder!"
"Who dares disrupt Lord Yuge's rest? Die!"
"Die!"
Tens of lasers fired over. Scarab King let out a few trills before its body turned transparent and dispersed away.
Raymen's attacks were directed at Pretty Good Mood without paying any attention to this insect.
"Guild Master, conclusion of experiment: Scarab King is useless," Pretty Good Mood lay on the ground as he sent this message.
Li Yi covered his forehead with his hand. He had already predicted this ending. A pet like Scarab King was at a disadvantage during PK as almost every class has a skill that could handle this high HP pet. It was only able to utilize its full potential against dummy bosses.
"Let me try!"
Confused Fox offered to try and after Li Yi nodded in consent, old big brother was up.
"Flash!"
Confused Fox bolted into the crowd of raymen as he raised his staff to initiate Chill Nova. The result left him devastated as raymen were immune to Chill Nova. Not one was frozen.
Ineffective!
"Freezer!" Confused Fox forked out a Wizard's survival skill, similar to a Summoner's Phantom Footprints, but this Freezer skill froze users in ice so users were restrained in motion when the skill was active.
12 seconds later, Confused Fox found himself on the ground after Freezer effect vaporized.
"Brother..."
"Say no more, rest in peace."
"Sigh, sigh..."
Confused Fox's corpse disappeared.
"Let me have a go!"
Flower Underpants was eager to try.
"Whoever who wants to attempt, take turns. There's no rush!"
Li Yi nodded to whoever was itching to try. At a loss, they must first find the weakness of these raymen. They could not just sit here and do nothing.
They might as well give it a go.
Party members, one by one made their move. With different classes, came different processes. However, the ending remained the same — dead.
All 312 of them, and in the end, Li Yi was the last one standing. All who attempted, died.
"Powered-up Arrow!"
Tch tch tch tch tch tst—
Li Yi stood a hundred meters away as he unleashed a Powered-up arrow to hit on one of the raymen.
"Kill the intruder!"
A light beam struck but Li Yi reacted fast and tumbled to the ground, evading the attack.
Raymen's attack range was far and wide as Li Yi's, striking more than a hundred meters away.
Li Yi turned to run back.
"Those who dare invade Lord Yuge's territory, even a God, must die!"
The group of raymen pursued Li Yi while firing laser beams at him.
With Violent Bear's Protection and God Mode used up, Li Yi was quick to flee out of the pipeline and back to the metal fortress.
"Hero, why have you returned?" The Paladin NPC who gave Li Yi and the rest the talk on the history of Ancient Civilization Ruins ran over.
"Die, intruder!"
A laser beam was shot. Li Yi managed to evade but not the Paladin NPC who was struck in the chest.
Bp!
[-1211]
This Paladin NPC has quite a high DEF!
"Holy Light, lend me your power!"
Before Li Yi was done gasping in admiration, the Paladin NPC was infuriated as he raised his sword to pounce over...
"Holy Light Adjudication! Holy Light Trial!"
[-633233]
[-564675]
At the shimmer of golden rays, tens of raymen were no match for the Paladin NPC. They were wiped out in a blink of an eye...
This way worked!
Li Yi was filled with glee.
