Heroes' Prison Chapter 85

Soon, the skeleton charged at Huang Yi again! Without a moment’s respite!

"Aerial Acceleration!"

"Flash Assault!"

...

Taking advantage of the Spirit Cat’s multiple Agility skills, Huang Yi did his best to dodge the skeleton’s attacks, narrowly escaping one perilous situation after another.

The skeleton’s charge lasted far too long, over a minute passed and it still hadn’t stopped, an unprecedented duration. If it didn’t stop soon, Huang Yi would even suspect it was a bug!

Finally, after the skeleton had been charging for two minutes, it came to a halt!

At this moment, the skeleton, in an almost human-like manner, leaned on its great sword, bent over gasping for breath, appearing extremely fatigued, so weary that it didn’t even have the strength to stand up and could only prop itself up with the sword.

Huang Yi hid in the distance, warily watching the skeleton, and didn’t immediately advance to attack. On the 13th floor, skeletons didn’t have the ability to go into a fury, but this skeleton on the 20th floor displayed it; he was unsure what ability it would use next.

Out of caution, Huang Yi decided to wait patiently.

After waiting a few seconds, the skeleton still made no move, seemingly having expended all its energy during that two-minute super charge, resulting in severe aftereffects of fury, debilitating weakness, to the point it couldn’t even twitch.

Huang Yi hesitated no more and immediately executed Blink Assault, charging fiercely at it, and he viciously scratched at its left ankle joint. The skeleton tried to dodge, but it was incredibly sluggish and couldn’t avoid Huang Yi’s attack at all.

In the next moment, the skeleton’s left ankle was completely severed by Huang Yi’s claw, turning into broken bones!

Huang Yi was shocked at this sight, not expecting the skeleton to have become this weak! Its bones were extremely hard; previously, even when he was in his Half-Beastmen form, he couldn’t break its bones with a Wolf Fang Club, let alone now in Agile Cat Form, where a mere scratch shattered the skeleton’s bones!

But what happened next was even more astonishing! After losing its left ankle, the skeleton’s bony structure seemed to follow suit as if losing its support, and all at once it fell apart, scattering into a pile of bone fragments, yielding the terrifying great bone saber it held and a crystal-clear rib!

The BOSS had died just like that!

It appeared that what was most formidable about this BOSS was its two-minute continuous charge after going into a fury. Once a player survived those two minutes, the BOSS would pose no threat anymore, becoming infinitely weak and could be killed with a single move!

Huang Yi finally relaxed his tense nerves after more than four hours, having somewhat safely passed the first challenge!

Now that he had disengaged from the battle with the skeleton, he reverted to his Half-Beastmen form and immediately checked the items the skeleton dropped.

The first thing he inspected was the great bone saber that had instakilled him numerous times!

The bone saber was about two meters long, with a broad blade surface, not knowing what kind of bones it was made from; it was lustrous all over, like mutton fat, with a very nice texture that felt smooth in his hands.

A level 22 Blue Weapon! This was even two levels higher than the Wolf Fang Club that Huang Yi had been using! He swapped out the Wolf Fang Club, stored it in his storage ring, and equipped the new Bone Blade.

With that, Huang Yi’s attack power immediately soared a notch, after all, it was a Blue Weapon that was two levels higher, the feeling was just different, holding it in his hand had a real quality to it, every ounce of strength could be felt.

Next, Huang Yi turned his attention to that crystal clear rib, a grade D material, which was fairly good. He didn’t pay much attention to it, directly storing it in the storage ring to be sold at the auction house later where it could exchange for a good amount of Gold Coins.

Huang Yi continued pressing forward, starting a new round of minor monster clearing. This time, with a new weapon, his clearing speed increased, each hit dealing about 100 more damage than before when he was using the Wolf Fang Club.

There was a significant increase in the number of minor monsters between the first and the second bosses, and it took Huang Yi almost 3 hours to clear them, finally reaching the second boss.

The second boss was an Undead Mage, which Huang Yi had also encountered on the 13th floor.

This boss was characterized by extremely high attack power and wide-area attacks that were very hard to avoid. Now here on the 20th floor, Huang Yi estimated that the boss’s attack power was even higher, and it was very likely that just like the first Skeleton boss, it could instakill him with a single blow.

Huang Yi didn’t rush to fight, he first logged out to eat something and relax his tense nerves for a while before re-entering The Second World.

By now, 10 hours had passed since the opening of this secret realm, leaving Huang Yi only 14 hours to grind this second boss!

Just as when he fought the Skeleton, Huang Yi started with some probing, died a few times, and figured out the boss’s initial skills.

The first was a skill called "Fire-Resistant Ring," which didn’t deal damage and was more of a control skill that could knock back anyone close to it. As soon as Huang Yi would get close, it would use this skill to knock him away.

The second was an instant cast skill called "Fire Rain," summoning dozens of fireballs falling from the sky like rain. If Huang Yi touched any of these fireballs, he would be instakilled.

The third skill was even more powerful, the "Sea of Fire," which required two seconds of chanting, then filled the surrounding area within a hundred meters with fire. This was an attack Huang Yi simply could not avoid, and upon successful casting, he would be instakilled without any chance of survival.

"Call of the Wild!" When Huang Yi once again stood in front of the boss, he immediately summoned a Hunting Dog and a Falcon.

The reason he hadn’t summoned these two creatures when facing the Skeleton was because it had very strong defenses, and even with these two summoned creatures, he couldn’t inflict much damage. Moreover, he had to divide his attention to control them, which could have dragged him down.

The second boss had extraordinarily high Attack Power, but its Defense wasn’t as strong as the first boss. If these two summons were well controlled, they could still play a role.

Moreover, this was part of Huang Yi’s strategy. Even if the Hunting Dog was instakilled, he would still have the Falcon. Flying in the air, the Falcon could avoid many attacks.

More importantly, now that the boss was of a Magic Attribute, the Falcon had its place. As soon as the boss chanted a large Spell Skill like "Sea of Fire," the Falcon could immediately swoop in to interrupt the boss’s spell casting.
