34: Lord of the Dead
Seizing this opportunity, Black Rock had already charged into the monster horde.
A mouthful of Dragon Flame spewed forth, instantly incinerating the two Specter Cavalrymen in front of him into charcoal ash.
Li Changkong stood behind Black Rock, skills continuously flying from his hands, landing wantonly on those cavalrymen.
Although these cavalrymen were indeed magnificent in Aura, Li Changkong discovered that they were not invincible once the battle began.
In just a moment, most of these cavalrymen in front of him had been eliminated.
The constant notifications in his ear allowed Li Changkong to experience the thrill of grinding monsters.
Just as Li Changkong thought he could easily wipe out these cavalrymen, the remaining cavalrymen swiftly opened a Dao, as if welcoming the arrival of something.
A furious roar came from within the knight group, and a cavalryman twice the size of the other knights appeared before Li Changkong.
This cavalryman was covered in rolling Black Qi, and the weapon in his hand was a large halberd.
The knight on horseback was over three meters tall, and Li Changkong could only look up at him.
The Evil Qi on the knight's body was extremely dense, almost solidifying into a physical form.
Therefore, the moment he saw the Knight Commander, Li Changkong instinctively retreated two steps; this was a shiver that came from the depths of his Soul.
Name: Undead Commander (Blue Boss)
Rank: 34
Skills: Cavalry Charge, Fearless Charge, Knight's Shield
The Rank of this Undead Commander in front of him was only 34, indicating that this should not be the final boss, but a mini-boss.
Even so, Li Changkong dared not show any contempt.
Instead, he immediately gathered his spirits and focused his attention on this boss.
With Black Flame blocking in front, Li Changkong did not need to engage in close-quarters combat.
The Undead Commander's strength was also not weak; as he charged over, a faint shield formed on his body.
The opponent was, after all, a Blue Boss, and a Level 30+ Blue Boss at that, making him not easy to deal with.
Li Changkong not only cast his Aura over Black Flame but also continuously cast Holy Light Spell from behind.
However, after half an hour of battle, the Undead Commander finally fell to the ground.
Looking at the Undead Commander lying on the ground, Li Changkong felt somewhat relieved.
Killed Undead Commander, gained 3000 experience points.
Obtained equipment, Knight's Vow.
What surprised Li Changkong was that another piece of equipment dropped this time; the boss's equipment drop rate was higher.
This equipment was armor, but it was heavy armor, which was not very suitable for Li Changkong.
Due to the uniqueness of his profession, Li Changkong was able to equip all types of equipment.
However, heavy armor was too cumbersome and not suitable for Li Changkong's multi-profession switching.
Nevertheless, this Level 30 blue equipment, if sold, would probably be worth over a hundred thousand.
After putting the equipment into his Storage Ring, they continued to advance into the depths of the plain.
Following the guidance of the Treasure Map, they quickly arrived at a plain with very few monsters.
Unlike other plains, the grassland here looked particularly strange.
The ground was not green grass but a reddish turf.
The color of the grass was like fresh blood, and under the dim moonlight, it appeared even darker red.
Faintly, it also gave people a sense of eeriness.
Upon reaching this point, Li Changkong already felt that something was amiss.
But now that they were very close to the Treasure location, Li Changkong naturally could not back out at this time.
However, this patch of grass was calm and peaceful, and there was no sign of a Treasure Trove anywhere.
"Could my Treasure Map be fake?"
At this moment, Li Changkong couldn't help but fall into self-doubt.
Just as he finished speaking, a burst of mist suddenly rose around them.
This mist looked very thick from the outside, making people feel a sense of vigilance.
It was unclear whether this red mist was inherently red or if it was a reflection of the grass on the ground.
The next second, Li Changkong saw a figure appear in the red mist.
This figure was exceptionally tall, looking like a giant.
But what was most peculiar was that this figure had no head, and from its appearance, it was exceptionally terrifying.
The giant also held a large saber in his hand, a saber even taller than Li Changkong.
Its head seemed to have been severed for some reason, appearing exceptionally bizarre.
In Chinese mythology, it seemed that only the God of War, Xingtian, had such a form.
Name: Lord of the Undead (Purple Boss)
Rank: 35
Skills: ???
The attributes of this giant appeared before Li Changkong, but he was still at a loss.
Due to the Rank difference already reaching ten levels, Li Changkong could not discern what his skills were.
However, the moment he saw this boss, Li Changkong felt fear.
He had not expected that guarding this Treasure location would be a Purple Boss.
Before Li Changkong could even make a move, the Lord of the Undead had already raised the long saber in his hand and bravely charged towards Li Changkong.
Under the faint moonlight, the long saber also shone brightly.
Black Flame, seeing his master under attack, immediately spread his wings to help Li Changkong block this blow.
But the Lord of the Undead was, after all, a Purple Boss, and his strength was even above Black Flame's.
With just one strike, Black Rock's body was sent flying over ten meters away.
And Black Rock's health bar, under this single strike, directly dropped by half.
This boss had already locked his aggro onto Li Changkong and did not go for a follow-up attack.
The next second, the long saber in his hand was already swinging with great force, cutting directly towards Li Changkong.
At this moment, Li Changkong already felt a hint of death's threat approaching him.
Although he wanted to dodge, at this moment, he felt as if his entire Qi was locked, unable to move at all.
It was only when the passive of his Purple Gold Boots activated that he barely managed to escape this attack from the opponent.
However, the passive of the Purple Gold Boots only refreshes once every few hours, which meant he had already lost his chance to escape.
A fierce look had already appeared in the Lord of the Undead's eyes.
Seeing that Li Changkong had actually dodged his attack, he became even more furious.
Before Li Changkong could react, he swiftly unleashed a second strike.
On the worn long saber, a red light surged, carrying the threat of death as it slashed towards Li Changkong.
At this moment, Li Changkong felt as if he had already smelled a hint of death.
