The Negative Energy Shot was very powerful!
Chu Ge’s heart suddenly tightened. The German Shepherd had probably around 50 points of health left. Although the German Shepherd did not die from the Negative Energy Shot, it had been seriously injured and lost at least 30 points of health. This Negative Energy Shot was a lot more potent than Chu Ge’s fireball. It was probably because the Negative Energy Shot was used to deal with professional magicians.
Chu Ge had 130 points of health, which meant he could resist around four Negative Energy Shots. He quickly calculated the injury data in his mind and then rushed up onto the high platform.
“Go up and attack!” Chu Ge yelled and kicked twice on the buttocks of the two dogs. As they were close to the Boss and had witnessed the demise of Da Hei and Er Hei, this time, Lai Fu and Daniel finally understood what Chu Ge wanted. They barked wildly and rushed forward. Then, they continued to bark far away from Chu Ge while surrounding Auguste. Their barking was like a rumble of roaring thunder, and their aura was like a tiger. However, they did not attack Auguste. The two dogs kept darting their eyes towards Chu Ge. They were waiting for their owner to take the lead.
Sh*t, they sure were useless!
Chu Ge almost spurted out a mouthful of blood. The two dogs were so useless. If he knew this was going to happen, he would have bought four German Shepherds instead. However, there was no medicine for regret. One of his dogs was already dead and another injured. If all his dogs died, he would not be able to fight. Therefore, he had no choice but to rush up himself.
However, Chu Ge was grateful that although the dogs did not attack and had only rushed up and barked, they still managed to attract some attention from the Boss. Perhaps their barks had a bit of a mocking effect, as Auguste suddenly raised his staff and pointed it at the bulldog.
Auguste said, “Darkness will cover your eyes!”
A black light flashed in the bulldog’s eyes. Daniel let out a scream as if he was crazy. Then with a bang, he slammed into the wall and killed himself.
When the tugou saw this, he became scared and hid far away.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Ge rushed up next to Auguste, then fiercely swung the Zanbato in his hand. After the Zanbato hit Auguste, bursts of ripples appeared on Auguste’s body. A translucent cover like an Absolute Terror Field appeared around his body.
Was this the Protective Shield? It looked pretty amazing.
After getting hit by Chu Ge’s Zanbato, Auguste shifted his attention from the dogs to Chu Ge. Then, he pointed his staff at Chu Ge.
Negative Energy Shot!
A gray ray of light was shot onto Chu Ge’s body. He then felt his body turn cold as if his blood was about to freeze. Chu Ge couldn’t help but tremble.
“So this is the effect of the Negative Energy Shot? It indeed had a ‘negative energy’ effect,” Chu Ge thought in his heart. However, he did not stop his movements. “Poised to Strike! Open for me!” Chu Ge shouted.
Chu Ge put all his energy into his swing. Under this attack that contained great force, the translucent barrier twisted and bent inward. An ear-piercing explosion sounded like glass breaking. With a bang, the shield disappeared. Although Chu Ge had broken through the shield, his attack was also successfully blocked.
Not waiting for Chu Ge to swing his Zanbato a third time, Auguste was one step ahead as he raised his staff first.
Auguste said, “Darkness will cover your eyes!”
The world in front of Chu Ge’s eyes turned black, and he was suddenly unable to see anything.
“Not good. What I was afraid of has arrived!” Chu Ge thought.
There was only darkness in front of Chu Ge. Even though the Blind Curse lasted for only ten seconds, Chu Ge knew that a lot could happen within those ten seconds. It was long enough for Auguste to shoot a few Negative Energy Shots at him and kill him.
Fortunately, Chu Ge had already made a plan for worst-case scenarios like this. In case he was blinded, he had planned for what to do. Chu Ge suddenly pulled out the Kobold’s Magic Candle!
“Disperse Darkness!” He roared. Chu Ge was not sure whether this thing could restore his sight or not. Although the equipped skill was dispersing darkness, he was not sure what effect it would have on the Blind Curse. But it couldn’t hurt to try. Before, he thought that he had very little chance of being blinded. However, who would have thought that he now had to face it and, in the end, go all out?
Chu Ge did not recover immediately, but the darkness in front of him was replaced by a halo. It was the effect of the light projected from the Kobold’s Magic Candle that was shot onto his retina. The halo radiated in all directions, as within his field of vision, he was able to vaguely see the outline of a black figure, making strokes and drawing something at him.
His body felt cold again. Chu Ge knew that it was another Negative Energy Shot without having to think about it. “The black figure must have been the Boss!” Chu Ge thought as he poured a bottle of potion into his mouth. Then, he swung his Zanbato towards the black figure!
The Zanbato landed on the human outline.
When Chu Ge heard a scream, he became spirited. The attack was a hit! His fear of death and his desire for victory made Chu Ge swing his Zanbato again and again like a crazy person. Screams sounded one after another, and then they slowly faded. When the darkness in front of Chu Ge’s eyes had dissipated, and he had regained his sight, Auguste was already on the ground.
Chu Ge shook his head, and he was finally able to see clearly.
The person who had fallen onto the ground in front of Chu Ge was Auguste, who had blood all over his face and eyes full of discontent. All the skeletons and zombies he had summoned fell to the ground as well. Da Hei and Er Hei were dead, while Lai Fu was barking crazily. However, these things did not matter anymore.
Chu Ge sat on the ground. He felt like his body had lost all its strength.
“Whew, that was close. I almost died!” Chu Ge thought.
He still felt the coldness on his body, but it had subsided a lot. It seemed that a bottle of Health Potion was not enough to offset the damage caused by two Negative Energy Shots.
If Chu Ge had failed to find the location of his target and was hit with two more Negative Energy Shots, he probably would have died.
Thinking up to his death, Chu Ge could not help but become a bit scared. However, he felt more of a near-death excitement. He experienced the thrill of killing a strong enemy at the moment of life and death.
“Damn, aren’t you awesome? Aren’t you a necromancer? Aren’t you supposed to be very powerful? In the end, you were still cut down by me!” Chu Ge kicked Auguste’s body with his foot, venting out his feelings a little bit.
“Now, it is time to receive the loot!” Chu Ge thought as he reached out his hand to touch the Boss’s body. It had been challenging to deal with this Boss, so the things he dropped had to be pretty good.
The loot Chu Ge discovered did not disappoint him.
Auguste dropped a total of four treasures.
The first item was a [Mid-grade health potion (supplement)
After Use: This potion instantly restores 50 points of health.] This was an excellent life-saving item. Chu Ge had just used a small bottle of health potion, and now he received a medium-sized health potion. In the end, it was not a loss.
Although Chu Ge’s body still felt cold, he was not willing to drink this potion. He cherished it as he put it in his bag. This thing could save his life at a critical moment.
The second item was a [Necromancer’s Slavery Staff (weapon/staff)
Blunt Damage: 12.
Attacking Speed: Slow
Attacking Distance: 123
Equipment Skill: Enslaves a dead spirit 1/1. This staff can enslave and control a dead soul to work for you. However, you cannot enslave a dead spirit that has more vitality than you.
Additional Attribute: Magic Strength +2
Item Introduction: This staff is made of white bones and Moonstone. The energy contained in the Moonstone is the key to controlling the dead spirit.]
This staff looked magnificent and valuable. It was unknown what process this staff had gone through to be created, but the bony body of the staff looked to be as smooth as jade. There was an abnormally white crystal inserted at the top of the staff. This crystal emitted a bit of soft white light. From just the outer appearance of the staff, it looked stunning, and this beauty was not ordinary. Chu Ge felt extremely happy as he held it in his hand.
The third item dropped was [Corpse Resurrection (skill book/magic)
After Use: This book enables you to learn the magic skill “Corpse Resurrection.”
Learning Requirement: Vitality 14 points, intelligence 12 points
Item Introduction: This is a magic book that has records of the skill “Corpse Resurrection.”]
It was magic. Finally, a magic skill book had dropped! Chu Ge became very excited. He had worked so hard in this Instance Dungeon just so that he could get this.
