To prevent this group of Players from escaping, Chen Yi also joined the battle.
He started with 5 Fireballs. The Fireballs repeatedly charged towards the Reinforced Shield in front of the Zombie Doctor. Chen Yi's Intelligence had more than doubled, and his damage far surpassed his previous capabilities.
[Fireball dealt 74 damage to Reinforced Shield]
[Fireball dealt 80 damage to Reinforced Shield]
[Fireball dealt 46 damage to Zombie King (Impact Damage 22, Burn Damage 24)]
Below the Reinforced Shield, the Zombie Doctor shrieked in anger. The Zombie King casually threw away the corpse in his hand.
Wu Shiyong, who was on the verge of despair, decisively revived. His body, which had been smashed by the Zombie King, with broken ribs, shattered arm, and multiple bone fractures throughout his body, suddenly recovered as if time had reversed.
If the Zombie King hadn't let go of the corpse, after the 1-minute countdown reached zero, Wu Shiyong would have either revived or died on the spot.
But what was the difference between reviving in the Zombie King's hand and dying on the spot?
After reviving, Wu Shiyong immediately ran outwards: "Game World, I forfeit this mission!"
Normally, one could only carry one Resurrection Coin. Now that he had used it, he had no safety net. Wu Shiyong's face was filled with bitterness.
He hadn't even collected his share from the underground base, and he had used up his Resurrection Coin for nothing. Forfeiting the mission also had penalties, but all of that was better than losing his life.
"Faster! Faster! Faster!"
Wu Shiyong stared intently at the countdown on his panel. Just as it reached 1, the ground suddenly shook violently, and he was determined to be in combat.
"Damn it!"
Chen Yi moved quickly, his Fireballs occasionally hitting the Reinforced Shield to attract aggro. He didn't stop drinking mana potions.
If you find this book good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing it next time.
He Dasen roared: "Front line, push forward!"
"Oh!!!"
Even the Tanks with buffs couldn't withstand the Zombie King's attacks. The gap in strength was too great; the Tanks were directly sent flying.
After one Tank was sent flying, another Tank stepped forward. With the buff's enhancement, their HP only dropped by about 1/3.
"Roar!"
The taunt skill had no effect, and the Zombie King swatted the scratching Warrior away with a single punch.
Mu Qingna seemed very powerless. She had finally obtained a special profession, but this boss was basically immune to crowd control.
She had used her charm on both the Zombie King and the Zombie Doctor, but the status panel showed they were immune. She could only use Mind Impact and scratch away alongside the Gunners.
Unable to transfer aggro, the Zombie King's agility was even higher than Chen Yi's. In a short while, it arrived in front of Chen Yi.
Chen Yi's expression changed slightly. Flames exploded between them, but the powerful Impact Force couldn't make the Zombie King retreat.
Repelling Fire Ring had no effect!
As a fist as tall as a person slammed down, Chen Yi, who didn't have time to cast again, blocked with his staff.
"Peng!"
With a loud noise, Chen Yi flew out like a bullet.
Flying back dozens of meters, Chen Yi sat on the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. A bottled Red Potion appeared in his hand out of nowhere.
Fortunately, his Stamina had been raised quite a bit, otherwise, this punch would have basically made him lose his combat effectiveness.
[Zombie King dealt 86 damage to you]
The previous response decision was a mistake; he shouldn't have used Repelling Fire Ring.
Not only did it fail to repel the Zombie King, but it also wasted casting time. The staff's Durability dropped by 13 points in an instant, barely holding on.
Durability 4/19.
Repelling Fire Ring was very ineffective against large-bodied, high-strength enemies.
He took the lesson to heart and glanced at Wu Shiyong, who had run further away, but paid him no mind.
Chen Yi did not choose to return to the battlefield directly but hid on the other side of Dave's house to meditate.
The Zombie Doctor shifted its attack target to other Mages. For Mages who hadn't increased their Physique, the Zombie King could be said to be one punch, one Resurrection Coin.
"Draw aggro!"
"How do we draw it? The boss doesn't fall for taunts or charms, and increasing firepower doesn't change its target."
"Where's that guy named Yi?"
"He was just knocked flying, probably spent a Resurrection Coin."
Mu Qingna, unable to attack effectively, had been calculating the damage dealt to the Zombie King. Even if 27 Players dealt 10 damage per round, that would be 270. Based on the current number of attacks, it had at least taken 1000+ damage, but the boss still looked very healthy.
The front line couldn't hold aggro, and the back line couldn't outrun the Zombie King.
Looking at the Zombie King that appeared before her, Mu Qingna muttered to herself, "Is this really a boss not exceeding level 20..."
Beside her, the Gunner, like Mu Qingna, couldn't withstand the Zombie King's second attack.
As the battle progressed, the players present dwindled. By the time Chen Yi recovered his full status, only a tank who looked like he was about to cry remained on the spot, fighting the Zombie King.
After Chen Yi drew aggro, the tank immediately fled, abandoning the quest.
Although many players appeared to have died, in reality, apart from one or two unlucky individuals who truly died, the other players, after paying their Resurrection Coins, chose to abandon the quest and exit this world.
The Zombie Doctor's shield showed multiple cracks, and the Zombie King's movements were no longer as agile as before, but this was still not an enemy Chen Yi could easily deal with.
"Mwahahaha... Your companions have all run away, why aren't you running?" the Zombie Doctor taunted.
'If only I had a companion...' this thought flashed through Chen Yi's mind.
He then shook his head, abandoning the idea. These players were unreliable; it was better to go it alone than rely on them.
Chen Yi raised his staff again, "You're wrong about one thing."
The Zombie Doctor froze, "Hmm?"
"They weren't my companions from the start!"
Fireballs repeatedly exploded on the shield.
