Upon hearing this, the Sword of the Fallen Angel's eyes lit up. "Understood!" He raised his hand and unleashed a fireball, instantly setting the bottles on the liquor cabinet ablaze and exploding. In a flash, all three people behind the bar were engulfed in flames.

There was no way to defend anymore. The three fire men screamed and charged out together, only to be hacked to the ground by the crowd.

Easy peasy.

There are three pieces of loot in total.

The bard's mandolin.

The Warrior's shield.

And the rosary of the Monk.

Xiao Yu still didn't make a move this time. He couldn't use the shield or the mandolin. The Monk's prayer beads were somewhat useful, but he thought of something better.

The first three bosses each dropped three items, meaning that nine out of ten people in the team could get some loot. Therefore, the last person naturally has priority in getting the loot from the fourth boss.

As the team leader, he naturally decided the order of loot distribution. As the final boss, the Priest in the church would undoubtedly have the best loot, so he didn't make a move this time either, intending to collect even better treasures.

The three items were quickly divided up, just as Xiao Yu had predicted. Now, everyone except him had requested one item.

Now, only the last boss remains.

The group left the tavern and went straight to the door of the small church at the end of the village.

Even from a distance, Xiao Yu's Undead Sensing could detect the divine power emanating from the church ahead.

Rushing into the church to kill people was obviously out of the question, but that didn't stump Xiao Yu.

He then instructed everyone to pick up some stones and smash the church windows.

A few stones were thrown in, and sure enough, the Priest in the church couldn't stand it anymore.

"Who dares to desecrate the dwelling place of my Lord?"

"Who dares to trespass into my tribe's territory?"

"Who dares to bring such vile slaughter and filth of the Undead into my sight? Evil spirits, you will be purified!"

With a deep and majestic voice, a figure appeared in front of the church doors.

A Priest, a Priest who looked very young, probably only in his early twenties at most, faced a group of ferocious Undead with an unusually calm expression.

This Priest was unusually not wearing heavy armor; he wore a simple black Priest's robe and held a wooden staff, looking completely unthreatening.

However, Xiao Yu knew it wasn't that simple. As the final boss of this dungeon, this guy's combat power was definitely not weak.

"Charge! Charge! Everyone, charge!" With Dr. Xiao Yu's shout, a horde of Undead swarmed forward.

Barrier against Evil!

The Priest slammed his staff on the ground, and a golden, hemispherical barrier immediately protected him.

With a sudden thud, Xiao Yu was sent flying, and others suffered the same fate; everyone was blocked.

"It's a level two divine spell Barrier against Evil, that lasts for about ten minutes," the Sword of the Fallen Angel exclaimed. "No evil creature can enter."

"Holy crap, how are we supposed to fight this?" Everyone was dumbfounded.

Xiao Yu's mind raced. He knew something about this Barrier against Evil; it could keep all evil creatures out—of course, if the evil creature was powerful enough, it could forcibly break through the barrier.

The problem is that everyone present is just a bunch of level two Undead minions, a far cry from being powerful. They simply don't have the ability. So, they can only wait for the Barrier against Evil to expire.

But surely they won't just wait for the barrier to expire, will they?

Sure enough, the Priest raised his staff Big Water Cunt.

"Rest in peace, departed one. Let go of your inner obsessions and return to where you belong." -- The Let the Dead Return to Death!

Xiao Yu thought to himself that this was bad. He was too familiar with the spell's incantation. "The Let the Dead Return to Death," a spell that specifically targets the Undead and is completely undefendable; one can only withstand it. As he had said before, if one were strong enough, one could resist this spell, but the problem was that he was far from being strong enough.

Sure enough, a flash of white light appeared, Big Water Cunt lay directly on the ground.

"Rest in peace, departed one. Let go of your inner obsessions and return to where you belong." -- The Let the Dead Return to Death!

The same incantation, the same gesture, but the target was different. A flash of white light, and even the Sweet and Sour Ribs knelt down.

"Captain, should we run or not?" Wesker shouted in alarm.

"Running away is pointless. I don't believe he has enough spell slots to exorcise us all."

In the past, Xiao Yu might have chosen to run away, but having learned about the spell slots beforehand, he felt somewhat more confident.

Since this Priest is just a boss in a newbie dungeon, what level could he be? And how many spell slots could he have?

I estimate that releasing three or five Let the Dead Return to Death would be the maximum. Once the spell slots are used up and the barrier disappears, let's see if he survives.

He was gambling, gambling that the opponent's spell slots wouldn't be enough to send them to the afterlife.

But we can't just sit idly by. "Sword of the Fallen Angel, blast him to smithereens!"

"Clear."

The Sword of the Fallen Angel launched Flame Missiles at them.

With a bang, the Priest was charred black from the explosion. This blow must have cost him at least three to five points of health, but as the final boss, the Priest's health was obviously not low.

Just as the Sword of the Fallen Angel was about to continue, the Priest pointed it at him.

"Rest in peace, departed one. Let go of your inner obsessions and return to where you belong." -- The Let the Dead Return to Death!

The Sword of the Fallen Angel also knelt down.

But the Priest didn't seem to have considered the issue of spell slots at all, and kept throwing out one Let the Dead Return to Death after another.

In the blink of an eye, everyone around Xiao Yu was dead, leaving him all alone.

The Priest looked at him with a Taunt gaze, seemingly recognizing his status as a commander, leaving him for last, and once again raised his staff.

"Rest in peace, departed one. Let go of your inner obsessions and return to where you belong." -- The Let the Dead Return to Death!

A warm, comforting feeling washed over him, like soaking in a hot spring, as if his entire body was melting. But Xiao Yu could only curse inwardly, "What the hell is going on? He's cast ten 'Let the Dead Return to Death, plus that Barrier against Evil from before—twelve spell slots in total! (Barrier against Evil is a level two divine spell!) Is this guy a level ten or higher Priest?"

Wait a minute, this is a newbie dungeon. What's the point of having such a high-level boss here? He's dead. He must have some equipment with added spell slots. Otherwise, if he really was level twelve, he could have just used a level four Mass Exorcism and be done with it.

(Mass Exorcism: Equivalent to an AOE version of Let the Dead Return to Death).

In that instant, Xiao Yu's eyes flashed, and he was back in the cemetery outside the village.

"Captain, how do we beat this boss?"

Everyone stared expectantly at Xiao Yu.

This boss, although it has only used two skills so far, gives people the feeling that it is completely unbeatable.

The Magic Circle against Evil can completely isolate Undead creatures, while the Let the Dead Return to Death can instantly kill Undead creatures; there's simply no solution to that.

No, there must be some way to beat this dungeon. The system wouldn't generate an unsolvable dungeon for players.

But how do we crack it?

Xiao Yu pondered deeply.

The Sword of the Fallen Angel, "Captain, should we retreat? This dungeon seems impossible to complete. That Priest must have at least twelve spell slots."

The Big Water Cunt, said, "Hey, I think there's something wrong with the number of players in this dungeon. If it were a 20-player dungeon, we could probably manage, but this dungeon definitely has the wrong number of players."

Upon hearing this conversation, Xiao Yu suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "That's right, how could I have forgotten about that?"

While the Let the Dead Return to Death is powerful, it is a single-target skill. As long as there are enough Undead, his spell slots can be exhausted.

Although there are only ten of them, who says they are the only ten Undead in the town?

Xiao Yu's plan was simple: use the two big zombies Big Water Cunt and Wesker, to create more zombies. The zombies' Corpse Poison skill could turn those who died from it into zombies. There were still many villagers in Poli Village, enough to create dozens of zombies. He could use these zombies to deplete the Priest BOSS's spell slots. After that, would he still have to worry about outlasting the opponent?

Once the Priest runs out of spell slots, everyone can swarm him and see if he survives.
