I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 165 I'll Slay Gods If They Can't Stand In My Way, I'll Slay Buddhas If They Can't Stand In My Way

Li Mingyu's baseless accusations against Jiang Chen, fueled by jealousy, led his team into a death trap...

Skeleton warriors often need a considerable amount of time to defeat bosses, mainly because bosses have extremely high vitality.

Compared to knights of the same level, BOSSes have dozens or even hundreds of times more vitality.

Although the knights have similar physical attributes and deal roughly the same amount of damage each time, it takes much longer to defeat a boss.

When a knight fights a boss of similar strength, he will likely be defeated unless he has a healer to support him.

This is not because the knights lack offensive power, but because there is a huge gap in their vitality.

This is why skeleton warriors perform better when facing other classes, but are relatively weaker in boss battles.

With the continuous release of skills, the knight is nearing his limit.

The knight had no choice but to use his last survival skill: extreme defense.

At the same time, the healer swiftly unleashed healing skills to help the knight recover.

Nevertheless, this was merely a delaying tactic; the knights were already surrounded by skeleton warriors and unable to escape.

The second wave of spell attacks descended, screams and explosions echoed across the battlefield, and a mage fell to the ground.

The knights' lives are dwindling, and the healers' skills are still a step behind.

The moment Li Mingyu glimpsed Jiang Chen raising his hand through the crack, he realized the terrifying skill about to unleash. No!

Screams and explosions mingled together.

After a loud bang, only two knights remained alive.

Although their ultimate defensive skills temporarily saved their lives, they only bought them a short time.

The two knights stared at Jiang Chen in fear, unable to comprehend how a level 27 professional could be so powerful.

Upon seeing the sergeant's badge on Jiang Chen's shoulder, they immediately understood that their fate was sealed.

A two-star lieutenant requires at least 20000 military merits, which represents countless battles against demons and monsters…

How many demons and man-eating monsters must one kill to obtain this rank?

This is a testament to strength.

They'd hit a brick wall, and one covered in deadly thorns at that. Meanwhile, another team from the Imperial Heaven Guild, consisting of eight professionals, had begun attacking the Battlefield Demon King; they were clearly much stronger than Li Mingyu's team.

The team leader is a second-tier advanced professional who has reached level 42.

The team also includes a high-level mage and a veteran healer, and the other members are all level 39, so defeating the level 39 battlefield demon king is not a problem for them.

Yi Ning tried to interfere with them in the air, but the effect was not obvious.

A level 40, second-job archmage immobilized Yi Ning and activated a restraining skill.

His skills were incredibly powerful; Yi Ning's protective light orb could only withstand two attacks before being broken. Moreover, the archmage possessed multiple area-of-effect skills, which firmly suppressed Yi Ning, preventing her from achieving her intended effect.

Although this would slow down the boss fight considerably, as long as the knight could hold out, they could wear down the boss eventually. Yi Ning felt increasingly anxious when she suddenly received a party invitation from Jiang Chen, and she joined his team without hesitation.

She asked, "Was it resolved so quickly?"

Yi Ning looked down and saw Jiang Chen and Lin Cai'er walking over, followed by several skeletons, each carrying...

Corpse!

These corpses belong to the knights of the defeated party.

Yi Ning looked into the distance in shock and found that there was no one standing there, only a pile of corpses.

"They were all really killed!"

Yi Ning's heart trembled.

Although she usually appears arrogant and aloof, she has never witnessed real killing before. She used to dismiss Jiang Chen's stories about murder, but now she has seen it with her own eyes.

As she was still in shock, a huge fireball exploded around her, blasting both the unicorn and herself away. Although they were not injured, they were in a sorry state.

The Grand Master sneered, as if mocking Yi Ning's powerlessness.

But suddenly, he saw something flying towards them. Was it a corpse?

The high priest was unsure; he only saw a dark object with blood dripping from it.

The corpse fell at the archmage's feet, and the stench of blood filled the air.

"These are the uniforms of the Imperial Heaven Guild; they belong to our people!"

The Grand Master's eyes narrowed, and he felt a chill run down his spine.

But it was too late; the body exploded with a deafening roar.

The archmage's magical shield shattered, and he was thrown into the air.

Not only it, but the entire team was hit by the explosion.

Then another corpse flew over.

It flew above the team and detonated in mid-air. Knights possess the strongest vitality of all professions.

It is also the most powerful for exploding corpses.

Two consecutive explosions wiped out the entire team, except for the Knights.

Only the knight, who was far enough away to be outside the blast radius, was unharmed.

Yi Ning was stunned, her whole body went numb.

She and the unicorn trembled in disbelief.

It was resolved so easily…

The BOSS team, which she had no chance against, was easily wiped out.

"How can this be."

"Could it be that I've been hit by a mental skill and am experiencing hallucinations?"

"Are these people really dead?"

A series of question marks popped up, and Yi Ning couldn't understand it. The Grand Knight, who was tanking the BOSS, suddenly shouted, "Elder, heal him quickly!"

He called out twice, but no healing spell landed on him.

The BOSS's attacks are extremely fierce; without a healer, he won't be able to withstand them for long.

Without treatment, he had no choice but to activate his life-saving skill, Extreme Defense.

His defense instantly reached its maximum, and even the BOSS couldn't do much damage to him.

He took the opportunity to turn around and look, wanting to see what the Grand Elder was daydreaming about.

Looking back, I was immediately filled with a chill.

The procession had vanished, replaced by skeletons charging towards him.

"What's this!"

"Where did all these skeletons come from?!" "Where did the party go?"

His first reaction was to run away.

hum!

With a soft sound, a large patch of red light appeared overhead.

He noticed that the BOSS's speed had suddenly slowed down.

Not only the BOSS, but he himself slowed down as well.

Red shackles appeared above both his and the BOSS's heads.

"Oh no, it's a curse!"

He slowed down, and the skeleton warriors rushed over, surrounding him and the boss together.

The skeleton warrior unleashed its power, striking it.

Cursed and controlled, unable to dodge.

He was still in extreme defensive mode, and the skeleton warrior's Berserk skill did not cause him any damage.

This only greatly shortened the time for the ultimate defense. He was terrified beyond words and wanted to escape, but he was surrounded by skeleton warriors and had nowhere to run.

The skeleton warriors kept attacking him, and the time for his ultimate defense was getting shorter and shorter.

The ultimate defense was about to disappear.

He suddenly shouted, "Group protection!"

A ball of light appeared outside his body, looking similar to a mage's shield; it was a group protection skill.

While not as powerful as ultimate defense, it can be used in emergencies.

It was his last struggle.

Several corpses flew overhead.

He heard a deafening explosion.

The first explosion caused the group's protective measures to collapse.

The second explosion inflicted unprecedented damage, nearly killing him. The third explosion knocked out his consciousness, and he died a swift and decisive death.

With his death, the Battlefield Ghost King lost its target, letting out a sharp cry and instantly turning its attention to Jiang Chen.

The three corpse explosions caused it considerable damage, and Jiang Chen became its primary target.

Suddenly, the Battlefield Ghost King turned into dust, passed through the encirclement of skeleton warriors, and appeared in front of Jiang Chen.

The power of the curse vanished as it turned to dust.

After returning to its physical state, the curse disappeared, as if it had been swallowed up.

A huge hand slammed down on his head!

"careful!"

Yi Ning snapped out of her shock and quickly reminded him.

Jiang Chen neither dodged nor avoided it, letting it take the picture.

They have full confidence in their skeletal armor.

"Battlefield Demon King (World Boss)" "Level: 39"

Strength: 25000

Agility: 20000

"Spirit: 20000"

Constitution: 25000

Skills: Void, Bewitchment, Life Absorption

"Trait: Physical damage reduced by 50%, Holy damage increased by 50%"

Jiang Chen had already used his detection technique to check the attributes of the Battlefield Ghost King on the way.

I now have a general understanding of the various abilities of the Battlefield Demon King.

Its attributes are very strong; it surpasses the skeleton warrior in strength and physique.

In addition to the 50% reduction in physical damage, coupled with the BOSS's formidable vitality, the skeleton warrior will probably have to whittle it down for quite a while before it can be killed.

As long as he doesn't have any control skills, there's nothing to worry about.

Jiang Chen once again became a human shield.

Skeleton warriors relentlessly attacked the battlefield demon king, while skeleton mages continuously unleashed their skills.

Physical attacks, magical attacks—the battlefield demon king was overwhelmed by all sorts of skills.

Yi Ning was stunned; she couldn't believe they could fight like that.

The next second she joined the battle, and the unicorn kept launching attacks.

The unicorn's attack has a holy attribute, increasing damage against the Battlefield Demon King by 50%, which is quite effective.

The Battlefield Demon King suffered more damage in just half a minute than the previous team had in over ten minutes.

It let out a piercing scream that resonated in the ears and captivated the soul. Skill: Bewitching.

While suspended in mid-air, Yi Ning's gaze suddenly lost focus and became unfocused.

The unicorn's cry rang out at the same time, waking Yi Ning.

Yi Ning broke out in a cold sweat; she had actually been bewitched.

Looking at Jiang Chen again, he seemed completely unaffected.

Not only was he alright, but Lin Cai'er was too.

The skeletal armor gleamed, blocking the bewitching skill.

Skill: Life Absorption!

The Battlefield Demon King unleashed his skill once again.

Invisible chains fell on the group and the skeleton, and the Battlefield Demon King began to absorb their life force.

The skeletal armor gleamed, and the Battlefield Demon King couldn't absorb any life force from it.

Yi Ning's unicorn also released a protective aura, firmly protecting her. As for the skeleton warrior, it had no life force to begin with and couldn't absorb anything.

The battlefield demon king roared repeatedly, but to no avail.

Its vitality is rapidly declining.

It blurred several times, but could only buy time.

When the Ethereal skill is activated, it is in a state of physical immunity and can also absorb the power of curses.

That only means the skeleton warrior's attacks are ineffective; the skeleton mage's skills can still damage it even when it's in a phantom state.

Jiang Chen would also apply the slowing curse as soon as the ethereal state ended.

The lifeless skeletons and the skeletal armor that is immune to all negative status effects completely suppress the Battlefield Demon King.

The battlefield demon king is getting weaker and weaker.

Yi Ning was excited, clenching her little fist, "Finally done!"

Her excitement was palpable…
