Chapter 305: Chapter 305
After hastily bandaging his wounds, Du You stared at the magic array, preparing to face the next one. Even he himself did not know if he could withstand the upcoming one.
Without hesitation, Du You set up a large number of mucus swamps on the ground while simultaneously dispelling the previously arranged ice-fire explosions.
He certainly did not want to be swept up by the flames. If he caught fire himself, it would be better to concede. The purpose of using the mucus swamp was to slow down the enemy. Du You realized that the largest threat to him was not those with strong defense, but those with high speed.
Those with strong defenses, at least he had a chance to grind them down, but those with high speed, he simply did not have the ability to dodge. It’s better to set up slowing measures in advance than to momentarily reduce the enemy’s speed.
With the assistance of the Death Scorpion’s wind and sand, at least, it was better than nothing.
After waiting for a while, the magic array indeed arrived as expected, and the red light burst out once more.
A massive figure emerged. This figure is countless meters high. With such a large figure appearing, Du You felt a twinge of fear. Du You knew that against such large creatures, his mucus swamp might not have much effect.
Hopefully this creature is just large in size and not fast. It would be best if it didn’t have any long-range attack capabilities. Otherwise, he would have to use his trump card, Du You thought silently.
When the light solidified, Du You laughed: "I’m in luck, it turns out to be this creature."
In front of Du You was an enormous chunk of flesh, a giant composed of rotting flesh and blood. Large quantities of blood and various viscous fluids flowed from it, making it extremely disgusting to look at. Despite this, Du You was extremely pleased.
This was an undead creature, and moreover, it was of a corpse type, which was naturally slow in speed. It didn’t matter if the mucus swamp was useless, he never intended to use it for an attack anyway.
The Death Scorpion silently retreated, and Du You simultaneously began to gather the Holy Light Arrow Array. "Xiaozi, aim for the zombie’s head. Make sure not to ignite the mucus, otherwise, we’re done for," Du You sent out an order.
Xiaozi nodded her head. A Thunder Light Orb fell, striking the giant’s head. Its head dipped, but the damage was not substantial, only a black, scorched trace was left on its surface.
As expected of an undead of the corpse type, its defense was truly terrifying. Du You didn’t bother to test his Disintegration Spell anymore, with such a level difference, his spell would essentially be ineffective, not to mention that the enemy was adept in defense. The Holy Light Arrow Array burst forth simultaneously, a surge of light, like a flood rolling towards the enemy.
Zombies are zombies, the enemy’s speed, although increased a lot due to its level, was still rather slow, and Du You was able to hit it. Countless Light Arrows hit the target directly, without wasting any of their power.
This giant zombie creature’s whole body started to emit black smoke, as if it had been scorched by fire, a pitiful sight. With one burst, large chunks of flesh fell off.
Du You knew that his Holy Light Arrows couldn’t do this. What really made a difference was the Holy Light Power contained within. It was incredibly effective against creatures with undead attributes.
The corpse creature continued towards Du You as if it had felt nothing. Du You had no choice but to retreat while attacking, simultaneously beckoning the Death Scorpion to quickly approach him.
After the Death Scorpion was near him, he grasped onto it with its pincers and quickly retreated. Next, they would use the hit-and-run strategy. That’s because the enemy was slow and possessed no long-range attack abilities. Otherwise, why would he have called this a lucky draw?
No matter when it comes to battle, luck is also part of one’s strength. Okay, this was essentially the most likely chance for better performance in a critical examination, but it could also be the trickiest problem that could potentially lead to a poor performance.
Du You led the giant corpse creature further back. He wasn’t sure how far he had retreated, whether it was half an hour or more. In any case, this battle had nearly entered a phase of attrition.
When Du You’s magic power was almost exhausted, he finally wore off the last bit of death qi in the corpse creature. The corpse now only had a bit of flesh and skeleton remaining. It collapsed onto the ground, emitting large amounts of black smoke.
"A level 19 creature has been dealt with. That was exhausting. Coming up next is the last one of the second tier. It’s up to you now."
Du You signaled Xiaozi and took her back into the summoning space. During the previous battle, Xiaozi’s energy and magic power had been completely used up and he himself had only 2% of his magic power left. This was just a bit that he had just recovered.

What troubled Du You the most was not his magic power, but the considerable consumption of his spiritual power. The recovery speed of his spiritual power was not as rapid as that of his magic power. Previously in order to guide the Holy Light Arrows and prevent them from dropping before reaching their target, wasting magic power, his spiritual power had been over-consumed making his head feel dizzy.
The Death Scorpion nodded, walking towards the magic array. This was his last move. He wasn’t sure how effective it would be against a level 20 creature. If it didn’t work, he would really lose.
The light exploded, and in no time, a massive figure appeared. This figure was no smaller than the previous one. Fortunately, this one wasn’t undead, otherwise poison would have had no effect.
What appeared this time was an anomalous beast similar to a mammoth. Each hair on its body resembled steel needles, and the tips of its ivory tusks were spiraled like drill bits, complete with blood grooves.
A transparent flow of energy circulated around its body, separating it from everything around it. The great beast gave the ground a fierce stomp, causing the ground to quake and crack as if from an earthquake. This shockwave directly shattered the encroaching Death Scorpion, its body’s sand couldn’t even maintain its shape.
The Death Scorpion landed on the ground, staring at the monster. Its dark golden body turned black.
If the mammoth knew the Death Scorpion, it would definitely not dare to approach it now. Unfortunately, it didn’t recognize it, so it ignored this little creature and kept moving forward.
After a moment, the now pitch-black Death Scorpion suddenly transformed into a black beam of light, shooting forward.
The mammoth seemed to sense the danger and attempted to attack, but it was too late. The black light was too fast. The mammoth wasn’t a speed type and couldn’t keep up. Moreover, the creature was too small, causing the mammoth to completely miss when it swung its trunk.
The next moment, the mammoth felt a sharp pain in its ear. This was the location the Death Scorpion had attacked, for there was very little protective energy flow here, and the scorpion was mostly likely to break through.
Even if it was just a bit of skin, the poison had entered. This suicidal attack method could not be stopped, not even by the protective mechanisms of this world.
