32: Who can kill me now?

Chapter 32: Who Could Still Kill Me?

This was Lu Ran's first time using the Blood Spear skill.

He hadn't expected that for his first use, while other Undead Mages could only charge Blood Spear for a maximum of eight seconds, Lu Ran had charged his for over ten hours!

Rip~

As if tearing a piece of cloth, the space above Lu Ran's head suddenly ripped open, forming a gaping hole.

The inside of the hole was pitch black, making it impossible to see clearly.

The next second.

Something resembling a long spear shot out.

But the spearhead was much longer than a regular spear's, flat and double-edged.

The entire spear seemed cast from fresh blood, a crimson hue, yet deeper in color than the Blood Spears of ordinary Undead Mages, with black infused in the red, shining brightly!

On the surface, the difference wasn't significant.

But Ye Hongyi and the others instinctively shifted their bodies to the side.

They were well aware of the power of Lu Ran's Blood Spear; they weren't in a party, so Lu Ran's skills hitting them would count as enemy unit damage!

Lu Ran could instantly kill any of them!

Lu Ran stared at the Blood Spear for a moment, then, after a slight pause, whoosh~

It pierced through the sky, gone in an instant!

At the same time.

Countless awakened ones were still attacking the Eight-Armed Vajra, though their output was clearly much weaker.

Someone shouted in frustration:

"This speed is too slow! Don't hold back on the big skills, and don't be stingy with the small ones either!"

"How long will this take?!"

"Many people have died! Stop dragging it out, damn it!"

"It's less than a quarter health left! Everyone, push harder!"

...

But just then.

Bang!

The Eight-Armed Vajra's raging body suddenly seemed to freeze, stopping motionless.

The scene immediately became somewhat eerie.

But soon, someone noticed something was wrong.

"What the heck, where's its health bar? Where's the Eight-Armed Vajra's health bar?"

"Huh? Dead? It's dead already?"

"How did it die? Who killed it?"

"Holy crap, this is insane, it still had almost a quarter of its health!"

"Seven million health, just gone like that?"

"Is this... a bug in the Datafication World?"

...

The scene erupted into chaos.

Because many people saw it clearly.

The Eight-Armed Vajra's slowly decreasing health bar, which was less than a quarter, suddenly emptied instantly!

Something must have instantly dealt seven or eight million damage to the Eight-Armed Vajra!

Directly one-shotting the Eight-Armed Vajra!

But in this world, even the Global top powerhouses, top hidden professions, let alone a single skill, even if they unleashed their full set of skills in one burst, it would be impossible to deal such high damage!

But whether they believed it or not, after its health bar was emptied, the Eight-Armed Vajra's massive body could no longer support itself and crashed to the ground!

What awaited it was, ten minutes later, its corpse would decompose and disappear!

On the other side.

A few seconds after Lu Ran released the Blood Spear, he received a notification:

【Congratulations! You have successfully slain the Level 50 Wild BOSS, Eight-Armed Vajra!】

【Congratulations! You have gained 5,000,000 experience!】

【Congratulations! You have received equipment rewards!】

【Level Up!】

【Level Up!】

【Level Up!】

A series of notifications made Lu Ran's head buzz.

"Five million experience, holy crap!" Lu Ran was startled.

This Wild BOSS was too good!

He directly leveled up three times!

Because according to Liu Xinxin's original estimate, Lu Ran would at most level up one and a half levels by grinding for a whole day.

But now, by instantly killing a Wild BOSS, he leveled up three times on the spot!

Lu Ran's level reached eighteen!

It had only been a few days since he awakened!

"Lu Ran, how was it?" Lei Tai asked eagerly.

"It gave five million experience, I leveled up three times! And, there are equipment rewards, let me see." Lu Ran immediately opened his backpack.

The benefit was that in the Datafication World, to avoid large-scale wild battles over equipment drops or preventing the owner from picking up equipment, the person who lands the final blow directly receives the equipment reward in their backpack.

Moreover, as a 'welfare BOSS' in people's eyes, the killer's name would not be announced.

Otherwise, a level-teen Undead Mage instantly dealing nearly a quarter of the Eight-Armed Vajra's health would simply be terrifying!

"Five million experience, this saved us a lot of time." Lei Tai said excitedly.

"Yes, it's a pity that Wild BOSS spawns are completely random—random time, random location, random level. Otherwise, farming Wild BOSSes would be a good way to level up," Liu Xinxin said.

"I'll send people to various main cities to gather information and keep an eye out. If a Wild BOSS appears, we can immediately teleport there; there will be enough time." Ye Hongyi mused.

Of course, the prerequisite was that Lu Ran had a well-charged Blood Spear.

At least several hours of charging would be needed to be absolutely certain.

Lu Ran's backpack had already been emptied yesterday; all surplus equipment had been put up for sale on the exchange.

At this moment, only one piece of equipment lay quietly in his backpack.

【hades' crystal skull】

【Part: Helmet】

【Quality: Titan Epic】

【Level: Unlimited】

【Class: Unlimited】

【Intelligence: 250】

【Stamina: 100】

【Magic Defense: 170】

【Physical Defense: 170】

【Additional: Increases Undead-type skill base damage by 5%】

【Additional: Provides passive 'Yin-Yang Dual Realms'】

Lu Ran didn't quite understand it, so he simply shared the equipment attributes publicly for the big shots to examine.

"Titan Epic!" Lei Tai was the first to exclaim.

Seemingly knowing Lu Ran didn't understand.

Liu Xinxin directly explained: "Epic equipment is also categorized. Ordinary Epic is just called Epic, but if it has a prefix, its quality will be greatly enhanced. Titan Epic is one such category."

So that's how it was; Lu Ran really didn't know these things.

Ye Hongyi then added: "Ordinary Epic only has one additional attribute, while Titan Epic can have two. One of yours even boosts Undead-type skill damage; although it's only a 5% increase, applied to your Blood Spear, that's a geometric progression in power. Excellent, excellent, it perfectly suits your abilities."

Next, the others looked at the other additional attribute.

"What kind of passive is this Yin-Yang Dual Realms?" Lei Tai asked curiously.

"Lu Ran, equipment with active skills, passive skills, etc., will all display in your skill panel once you equip them. Equip it, then open your skill panel and take a look." Liu Xinxin prompted.

Lu Ran did as he was told.

Immediately, Lu Ran's head was covered by a crystal skull, yet it wasn't horrifying; the crystal skull was translucent and had a strange beauty to it.

And with the distortion, Lu Ran's face inside couldn't be seen.

It was as if a real crystal skeleton stood before them.

"You can hide the helmet's appearance display; otherwise, it looks a bit eerie." Qin Wuyao was closest, staring at Lu Ran, when suddenly Lu Ran's head turned into a crystal skull, giving her a fright.

Lu Ran chuckled and chose to hide it.

Only then did he open his skill panel.

In the passive list, a skill indeed appeared, active passively.

【Passive: Yin-Yang Dual Realms】

【Cooldown: 24 hours】

【Effect: When the awakened one suffers a fatal attack, they will not die immediately. Instead, their HP will be locked at 1, and they will enter the Yin-Yang Dual Realms state. This state grants immunity to all attacks for ten seconds. After ten seconds, 30% of HP and MP will be restored.】

Seeing this, Lu Ran raised an eyebrow and thought, "Combined with the summoned creatures from the Treasure Gourd, who could still kill me?"

At the same time.

Lu Ran also received another notification:

【Your equipment, hades' crystal skull, has entered the global equipment rankings at 5th place. Would you like to display your personal profile information?】
