Chapter 242: The Crimson Moon Demon Isn't Actually Strong
Chapter 242: The Crimson Moon Demon Isn't Actually Strong
The Crimson Moon Demon continued with its assault, its Unlimited Spikes skill living up to its name by delivering an endless barrage of strikes.
However, when Lin Moyu summoned all his undead legions, the number of targets multiplied exponentially. Consequently, the Crimson Moon Demon's attack power plummeted to less than one-tenth of its original strength, posing no significant threat to Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu surveyed the scene and noticed that the Crimson Moon Demon had retreated far away, hiding in a corner of the barrier. A plume of green gas billowed out from that corner, as if screaming for attention: I'm here, I'm here!
"Does it really think running can help?"
The barrier was like a prison, trapping not only him, but also the Crimson Moon Demon.
Skeletal Warriors, carrying Abyssal Demon corpses, happily followed Lin Moyu in pursuit.
The Crimson Moon Demon, unaware of its impending doom, huddled in the corner, silently enduring the poison's damage. The damage wasn't great, but it was persistent, causing considerable discomfort.
Furthermore, the Soul Blaze Lin Moyu unleashed earlier inflicted unbearable pain that reached the core, making it shiver uncontrollably.
Amid clicking footsteps, an Abyssal Demon corpse was flung at the Crimson Moon Demon.
Boom!A deafening explosion rose, and tsunami-like damage surged.
The Crimson Moon Demon let out a silent wail, and the ground shook.
The Corpse Explosion unleashed massive damage, causing nearby spikes to burst and splatter blue mucus everywhere, dyeing the earth blue.
Standing amidst the mucus, Lin Moyu's Bone Armor gleamed, blocking all damage.
The Crimson Moon Demon attempted to run again, moving underground, but not very fast. Another corpse was thrown its way.
Boom!
The ground shook once more, and the Crimson Moon Demon unleashed another silent scream.
One after another, corpses were thrown into the air and detonated.
After bearing 20 Corpse Explosions, the Crimson Moon Demon let out one last scream and died.
[Killed level 55 Crimson Moon Demon, EXP +2,750,000, military merit +10,000]
The level 55 lord rank Demon offered as much EXP as a boss and granted 20,000 military merit. Lin Moyu and Mo Yun each received 10,000 military merit.
Despite being a lord rank Demon, the Crimson Moon Demon was rather weak, though it had some peculiarities.
However, once its true body was located, it wasn't difficult to defeat it. Furthermore, if one could fly, it would no longer be a threat.
All in all, the Crimson Moon Demon had obvious weaknesses that, once exploited, made it easy to kill.
The Succubus Queen had sent the Crimson Moon Demon to counter Lin Moyu's skills, creating a difficult situation for him. However, his newly acquired poison-type skill turned the tide.
Alarm bells rang in Lin Moyu's mind. For the Succubus Queen's actions to be so targeted, she must have gathered extensive information about him. It meant someone of the human race had leaked his information to her.
"Was it someone from the Demon Worship Society?" Lin Moyu mused, considering it a possibility.
Mo Yun flew over and let out a long sigh of relief, "Finally, it's dead."
"Mhm." Lin Moyu replied tersely, then retrieved his undead legions, leaving only two skeletons by his side.
The battle raged for a full hour before ending. With both the Abyssal Demons in the air and the Crimson Moon Demon slain, the barrier began to collapse, unable to sustain itself any longer.
Ding! Ding! Dang! Dang!
A din erupted outside the barrier. Someone was attacking the barrier.
Lin Moyu and Mo Yun were taken aback and turned to look at the same time.
With a bang, the barrier shattered like glass and dissipated into the air, revealing the Immemorial Battlefield's light that hadn't changed for countless years once again.
The scarlet light from the two shot straight into the sky, vying over attention with the Immemorial Battlefield's light.
"You think we wouldn't be able to find you if you hid in a barrier?"
"The Primordial Runes belong to us Dragonkind."
A large group of Dragonkind class users, radiating billowing murderous intent, rushed over, comprised of five to six parties, totaling 30 to 40 people. They had been attacking the barrier, accelerating its collapse to some extent.
Lin Moyu wore a faint happy smile. The Dragonkind class users were really considerate—they came to deliver EXP, equipment, and military merit.
Just as Lin Moyu was about to make a move, a loud shout rang out.
"Protect our fellow humans!"
A team of twelve class users rushed over from afar, seemingly intending to assist Lin Moyu.
A sharp glint flashed past Lin Moyu's eyes. Regardless of their true intentions, he needed to remain cautious.
He who struck first had the upper hand.
The two skeletons picked up an Abyssal Demon corpse each from the ground and hurled them into the air. The corpses reached the Dragonkind class users in an instant, followed by a flash of red light.
Skill: Damage Curse!
Skill: Corpse Explosion!
Two explosions ensued!
The charging Dragonkind class users dropped from the sky like raindrops; every single one that fell was dead.
A few who hadn't fallen, after being dazed for a moment, screamed in panic and fled without looking back.
Dragonkind class users might not be the sharpest tools in the shed, but they weren't completely stupid either—they knew when to run for their lives.
The human class users that were rushing this way lurched to a stop, looking blankly at the Dragonkind clan users falling from the sky like raindrops. They swallowed hard. Some even rubbed their eyes, thinking they were seeing things.
"Is my mind playing tricks on me? Can someone tell me if this is a hallucination?"
"I also feel like it's a hallucination. But it doesn't quite seem like one."
"Did a bunch of Dragonkind die just like that?"
"They really did. The skeletons seem to be stripping their equipment..."
"I'll be damned. That action, it looks really practiced!"
Lin Moyu's storage space was filled with different pieces of equipment, most donated by Dragonkind. They were all platinum rank equipment; whether they were useful or not, it was the right thing to pick them up.
The skeletons rushed over, skillfully stripping the equipment from the bodies. To reach such a scary proficiency, they must have repeated this action countless times.
The corners of Mo Yun's mouth twitched... She glanced at the indifferent Lin Moyu, who resembled a bandit at this time, from the corner of her eyes.
Lin Moyu gazed at the sky. It had been 10 days since he had acquired the Primordial Rune. His scarlet beam of light was gradually dimming, indicating that the fusion process was nearing its end.
During the 10 days, many people had come to snatch the Primordial Rune from him. If he were killed and the Primordial Rune was seized by someone else, that person would have to go through the same process he had.
This process resembled a rite of acknowledgment. Only by surviving for 10 days could you giant the Primordial Rune's recognition and the right to possess it.
However, for ordinary class suers, surviving for 10 days under these circumstances wasn't easy. They would need the help of a strong party or be exceptionally strong themselves.
Mo Yun was lucky to have encountered Lin Moyu; otherwise, it would have been difficult for her to last for 10 days. Making it through the first five days was already quite an achievement.
At this moment, Mo Yun still had three days left until her fusion was completed. With Lin Moyu around, that shouldn't be an issue.
"Let's go!"
After collecting the equipment, Lin Moyu headed deeper into the Immemorial Battlefield.
The location of the Divine Selection Secret Realm varied randomly each time it appeared, leaving much to chance. Generally, the closer one was to the core area, the higher the probability of it appearing. Ultimately, it all came down to luck.
Mo Yun, sprawled lazily on her Holy Spirit Unicorn, asked, "Are you searching for the Divine Selection Secret Realm?"
Lin Moyu responded with a grunt and said, "I want to obtain divinity."
Mo Yun uttered, "With your strength, it shouldn't be difficult to pass through the Divine Selection Secret Realm."
Lin Moyu was confident in his abilities, but the real challenge lay in finding the realm.
Some unlucky people could search for months or even a year and a half and still not find it.
Mo Yun's beautiful eyes turned, "Once I have fully fused with the Primordial Rune, I'll help you look for it."
As she spoke, Mo Yun tossed a Point Teleportation Stone to Lin Moyu.
Her Unicorn could fly and was very fast. Without the interference of the Primordial Rune, she wouldn't face much danger here. Her searching for the Divine Selection Secret Realm from the sky would be much more efficient than Lin Moyu searching on the ground.
"Thanks!" Lin Moyu accepted the Teleportation Stone without hesitation.
Mo Yun smiled sweetly, "I should be the one thanking you. After all, you helped me a lot."
Lin Moyu shook his head, "It's nothing much."
From slaying the Battlefield Ghost King to saving her this time, these were minor tasks to Lin Moyu, but not for Mo Yun. They were a great help to her.
Mo Yun thought for a moment, "Thank you anyway. If there's anything you need help with in the future, as long as it's within my capability, I won't refuse."
"Alright."
