Zhan Long-Chapter 1007: Gonggong's Soul

In the basement of Ice Cavern’s third floor were level 180 Hybrid Demons called Gonggong Tribe Warriors. There were many types of them, namely Blade Warriors, Spearmen, Sword Soldiers, Cavalry, Archers, Chariots, et cetera. There were just Solo-blade Soldiers, Spearmen, and Sword Soldiers at first, and they were all easy to deal with. However, many Cavalrymen appeared eventually. Li Mu, Wang Jian, and the others charged through this mob of Hybrid Demons, while we relied on the Furnace God Cavalry's stun effect to kill the Cavalry-type monsters.

At the later stages, Chariots also appeared. Chariots were combined-type monsters. The ones pulling these were halberd-wielding Cavalrymen, and onboard them were Archers. On the edges were Spearman Soldiers. One Chariot was formed of twelve monsters. Their combat strength was really strong and they charged about. Our Furnace God Cavalry was unable to block them. This continued until Dancing Forest suggested using Scattered Shot to stun the war horse when we finally managed to prevent the Chariots from charging toward us.

……

In the corridor of the basement, dozens of Chariots surged about. Our Archers were not enough. Li Mu, Wang Jian, Old K, and the others led the Furnace God Cavalry to risk their lives. One Chariot charged at my five-man party and Dong Cheng Yue smiled. "Great! It's finally our turn!"

"What are you afraid of?” I consoled her. Butterfly in my hand shook as I activated Icy Wings to fly across. I brushed past the Chariot and slashed several times. However, the Spearman kept poking me with the spear. In the end, when the chariot was in front of Lin Wan Er, I activated Blade of the Champion's Champion of the Three Armies. I shattered the iron structure of the Chariot with a peng and forced it back, stunning it for one second. Dong Cheng Yue and Dancing Forest used AOE to cover the Chariot.

"D*mn!"

One of the Cavalrymen hollered in rage and charged at me with a halberd in his hands. He shouted, "How will the Gonggong Chariot be afraid of you rats?"

I shook Butterfly and slashed at him three times. This guy's luck was not good, for Dinghai was triggered. With a peng, the guy was stunned to the spot and I also recovered 50% of my health. I used the level 17 Double Hit and the glow stunned the players around!

One Second Hero held his Zhangba Snake Spear and asked in shock, "Guild Leader, how did you do that? This... was the light of a skill at least at level 16, right? My highest skill is only at level 15..."

I laughed. "Yong Jie, that's actually a level 17 skill light; the level 18 one would probably be even brighter!"

"D*mn!"

Li Mu was stunned. "My Double Hit is only level 16 and I am confident that I have trained it longer than you. How can yours be level 17?"

I did not hide anything. "The army system rewarded every general a residence. Within is a drill ground. While the players practice hitting the wooden dummies, the skill cooldown is reduced and the familiarity will increase by folds. I trained an entire night to get to level 17; do you think it was easy for me?"

Li Xiao Yao tried to tempt me. "Xiao Yao!"

I said, "No need to say more... Only the master can use the residence; even if others use it, their familiarity won't increase at all. You should just work hard yourself..."

"Okay..."

……

Although level 17 Double Hit was the same as level 10, they did 6 attacks and there were no changes, but the difference was in damage. Level 17 Double Hit dealt around 85% of one's basic attack. As for the one at level 10, it was at most 65%. The difference in damage was huge.

More importantly, the higher the skill level was, the brighter the light being used would be. The players were all younger than us, so we hoped that our skills would be brighter. It would also make flirting with girls much more efficient!

We continued leveling and the battles on the third floor got really intense. What made us happy was that these Gonggong Tribe Warriors could still drop Frost Demon Sets. This meant that our operation ‘collect Frost Demon Sets’ could still continue. After we complete this map, we would get at least 10 thousand sets. Along with Furnace God War Horses, these 10 thousand Furnace God Cavalry would sweep the continent for the next few months. They won't even be at a disadvantage when facing Hybrid Demons.

……

We fought from 8 in the morning to 8 at night. After eating supper, we continued to fight until 7 in the morning. Finally we came to the end of the map. This was an ice palace and at the sides of the hall were many ancient warriors. In the middle was a throne and on it was a majestic-looking general. Without needing to think, this was the legendary Water God Gonggong!

In the Sea of No Return Battle, we killed the Ocean Demon King and got the Water God Halberd. Who knew what this Water God Gonggong would drop for us.

"Let's draw the guard over and kill them first."

I said carefully, "Don't move, Xiao Wu draw the monster with Meteor Shot. 90 yards attack wouldn't draw too many else over."

Dancing Forest nodded and very quickly, we spent 30 minutes to kill 20+ Quasi Boss level guards. 500 of us spread out and prepared to kill the final Boss!

"Pa ta..."

When my Overlord Boots stepped on the icy stairs, a cold wind blew on my cape and terrified me. This was Water God Gonggong, someone who smashed right into Buzhou Mountain. If this guy smacked us, wouldn't my soul shatter? I looked at my stats before preparing to attack!

From afar, I locked onto Gonggong and used Great Realm of Desolation!

"Peng!"

"68774!"

Such strong defence, my two times damage actually didn't exceed 100 thousand.

Suddenly, Gongong raised his head and showed a half decomposed face. He looked really terrifying and at the same time, he slowly stood up from his throne. His left hand held a translucent shield and on his right was a shining sword. Actually shouldn't his weapon be the Water God Halberd? It was probably stolen so he was using this sword to replace it!

When Gonggong charged at me, I shared the Boss's stats to the guild channel--

Water God's Soul-- Gonggong (4 Star God Tier Boss)

Level: 182

Attack: 32500-42500

Defence: 35000

Health: 1.5 billion

Skill: Desolate Shield, Shocking Waves, Wave Slash, Smashing Buzhou Mountain

Introduction: Gonggong, the water god in ancient times. He controlled the floods in the world and is really vicious and brutal. As fire and water were enemies, after he lost he smashed into Buzhou Mountain. After many years, his body that was sealed shattered and only his divinity continued to defend the Ice Cavern. It was said that the person who kills Gonggong would be able to obtain the god weapon in his hands.

……

Looking at the introduction, the last sentence made everyone cheer. But the stats were also so strong. If he went all out to attack, it would be tough for players to survive.

I retreated and then said loudly, "Prepare, reduce his defence and then use speed reduction and stuns to restrict the Boss. I will tank. The other close combat players don't head forwards. Just use Blade Spin to damage the Boss from afar!"

Before my words finished, Gongong's Soul was right in front of me. It slashed down and it caused waves of damage. This was similar to Drunken Spear's Thousand Layer Wave but its damage was much higher. When the sword hit my armor, I felt like I was about to rip apart. My health started to drop. This Wave Slash was just too strong--

"67177!"

"71299!"

"71110!"

"67733!"

"72128!"

……

Actually. my health was just 250 thousand and would have been insta killed. Fortunately, Darling Duck and Thousand League Spring healed in time. They maintained my health at around 50 thousand. The Twin Dragon effect was used right away and I quickly used Cleansing Rain. Butterfly attacked and Dinghai effect was triggered. I healed twice to prevent getting insta killed--

"+53400!"

"+127982!"

……

Gonggong's Soul hollered in rage and slashed. Many energy waves spread out from around him and players within 20 yards were affected. Luckily I told everyone to spread out and only I hit. Another 90 thousand damage hit. Butterfly and Zhen Yue Sword slashed and I used Strength of a Thousand Men. I was going all out and risking my life and that also helped me to heal much health, maintaining my health at around 30%. At any time, I was at risk of being insta killed.

The blade flashed and I used Zhen Yue Warsong. One Second Hero waved the Zhangba Snake Spear and used Roar of Zhang Fei. Yue Yao Yan held Greedy Shield and activated Greedy Shield Formation. Players within 200 yards were protected. Me too, 120 seconds of 50% damage reduction, was saved!

Using this rare chance, players charged over. Those that were close to the Boss used all their skills. Those who couldn't get close used Blade Spin to attack. Dancing Forest, Dong Cheng Yue etc's ranged skills smashed down. All of a sudden, Gonggong's Soul health started to drop. However, he didn't stop and do nothing. He slashed and then used Desolate Shield which caused most players' attacks to be unable to break through his defence.

It became extremely hard to kill him. After 30 minutes, the Boss still had 50% health. Over 40 Furnace God Cavalries had also died too!
