Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!
The Plague Black Water coiling around every Class User's ankles
was seared by the Scorching Dragon's Breath.
It turned into wisps of black vapor at the speed of light,
drifting away into the air and vanishing without a trace!
Everyone was free again!
They also saw that godlike figure soaring high in the sky!
That was right. In their eyes, anyone capable of wielding such terrifying magic and instantly dispersing all plague and gloom was already their Savior God!
High in the sky,
Lin Yi let out a long breath.
Damn, he had sped all the way here as fast as he could.
Good thing he had made it in time!
The Death Knight was still alive. Good.
The instant Lin Yi saw Death Knight Ravenardale, he did not hesitate.
He immediately hurled down an instant-cast Heavenly Flame Dragon's Breath.
He had been afraid that the Class Users ganging up on the BOSS below would steal the kill.
If one had to name his highest-damage skill at the moment, it was undoubtedly Heavenly Flame Dragon's Breath.
Moreover, the skill was incredibly direct, with no cumbersome wind-up before the attack.
It was simply an ordinary dragon's breath descending from above,
dealing a devastating blow.
Besides, Lin Yi was not some bloodthirsty maniac.
His control over the Fire Element had now reached the point where
his Heavenly Flame Dragon's Breath could destroy every monster
without harming the Class Users in the slightest.
That was why the thousand-plus Class Users who had fallen into despair had not suffered even the slightest injury beneath such terrifying Seventh-Tier Dragon's Breath!
After the dragon's breath faded, Lin Yi narrowed his eyes.
Hm?
It wasn't dead?
It had not even lost much health?
This BOSS had something going for it!
Lin Yi was somewhat surprised.
He had considered that a single Heavenly Flame Dragon's Breath might not kill the Death Knight.
But it should have taken at least half its health, right?
Now, it seemed that even several more Heavenly Flame Dragon's Breaths might not be enough.
Lin Yi stared at Death Knight Ravenardale.
Under the effect of the [All-Knowing Eye],
its information soon appeared before him.
[Death Knight Ravenardale (Mutation)] [Level: LV.200] [Rank: King Rank] [Race: Undead] [Health: 9.97 million/10 million] [Mana: 100,000/100,000] [Strength: 15800] [Spirit: 8000] [Agility: 8000] [Endurance: 15800] [Active Skills: Undead Army, Plague Tide, Deathly Void Slash, Grasp of Death, Charge, Corpse Explosion.] [Passive Skills: Undead Will, Undying Body (Mutation)] [Weakness: Holy Light Damage]
Lin Yi froze.
Level 200?
Wasn't it supposed to be level 60?
Why had its level suddenly risen so much?
Naturally, Lin Yi had also noticed the word "Mutation" on the information panel.
But he had never heard of such a mechanic in class before.
Hm, did it mean an enhanced version of a BOSS?
Still, a single Heavenly Flame Dragon's Breath had only dealt 30,000 damage to it. Lin Yi could not make sense of that.
Fortunately, with the [All-Knowing Eye], Lin Yi quickly discovered the clue among the Death Knight's skills.
The issue lay with the passive skill [Undying Body (Mutation)].
[Undying Body (Mutation)] [Type: Passive Skill] [Tier: Tier 7] [Effect: The power of the Abyss has strengthened your body, granting you extraordinary damage resistance!] [All damage received other than Holy Light damage is reduced by 50%, and the maximum damage received from a single hit is 9999.] [You recover 5000 Health per second.]
This passive skill was insanely overpowered.
The most terrifying part was that it could take less than 10,000 damage from a single hit at most.
No wonder a Heavenly Flame Dragon's Breath had only taken off so little health.
Even the dragon's breath's massive single-hit damage had only dealt 9999 damage. The health it lost afterward had all come from Burn Damage.
After looking over Death Knight Ravenardale's absurd passive skill,
Lin Yi suddenly felt fortunate.
Good thing he had upgraded his Wind Magic yesterday.
Otherwise, he really would have had no way to deal with this thing today.
Sure enough, compared to pushing a single element to the extreme, a balanced path of developing multiple elements offered a greater boost to combat power.
Lin Yi had previously found Wind Magic somewhat lacking.
Mainly because...
it was a little too weak.
Take the most basic Tier 3 spells for comparison.
Even without his current attributes and equipment, the three hits of Triple Flame Spear already dealt over 10,000 base damage.
Yet the nine hits of Gale Nine Consecutive Blades did not even reach 5,000 damage.
Though it struck quickly and hit many times,
it really was far too weak.
But things were different now.
Against a BOSS like Death Knight Ravenardale, capable of tanking massive single-hit damage, Wind Magic's multi-hit attacks were incredibly valuable!
Several minutes earlier.
Canglan City.
Professional Alliance Building.
Although the lobby remained orderly, with all kinds of Class Users continuously arriving to make inquiries and conduct business,
inside the conference room, countless Canglan City Professional Alliance higher-ups
were already drenched in sweat.
"We can't handle it!"
"Absolutely not!"
"Based on the data from all Mutated World BOSSES in the wilderness across Great Xia over the past century, their levels generally increase by at least three times!"
"In other words, the World BOSS in the Land of Silence is now at least Level 180!"
"I said long ago that once the only World BOSS around Canglan City underwent Mutation, it would become a ticking time bomb!"
"I never expected it to come so soon!"
Everyone attending the meeting looked ashen.
At that moment, the conference room's large screen displayed the fully Mutated Death Knight.
No one could come up with a plan to address the crisis.
In the end, the Canglan City Professional Alliance President seated at the head of the table made the final decision.
"I've already sent a request for aid to the Tianhai City Professional Alliance headquarters directly above us. They've dispatched a Sixth Turn Class User, and he is already on his way!"
"But even from Tianhai to Canglan, it will take him two hours."
"During those two hours, we will evacuate the civilians and hold back the Undead Army summoned by the Mutated Death Knight."
"If we mishandle this, it will be a major catastrophe for Canglan!"
The Vice President was a balding man. Upon hearing the President's decision to evacuate Canglan's citizens, he was instantly dumbfounded.
"But... President!"
"If we issue an alert now, it may cause panic among the citizens. If something else happens..."
Before the balding man could finish speaking,
he was cut off brutally.
"If the plague and corruption from the Land of Silence spread into Canglan, this won't be about whether you keep that official hat on your head. It'll be about whether you and I spend the rest of our lives working sewing machines!"
"Are you genuinely stupid, or do you just want a promotion too badly?"
The old President's gaze was icy.
He showed no mercy in his rebuke.
The balding Vice President was utterly humiliated in front of everyone.
"Issue a Level One Alert, then notify the City Defense Force to prepare to evacuate the civilians!"
"Do it now, immediately!"
As Canglan City's higher-ups made the decision to evacuate,
piercing alarm sirens rang throughout the entire city.
Countless Class Users also received regional broadcasts.
It was exactly like what had happened earlier in Jiangcheng because of the Molten Flame Demon Lin Yi had summoned.
They simply had no ability to handle monsters of such high level and rank!
They could only wait for the true powerhouses of all Dongjiang Province to arrive!
