Chapter 144: Chapter 140: Harvest(3K)_l
Translator: 549690339
The Orochi is furious!
The massive body, hundreds of meters long, is thrashing wildly in mid-air, shattering countless buildings.
In its mismatched eyes, a visible orange rage is shimmering, yet…
No matter how it speeds up, it seems unable to catch up.
“Is this…?”
“Domain!”
This human lord’s general, so young yet commanding the power of a domain?!
The tribal chiefs and elite monsters of the Spider-Woman Tribe, the Chief of Man Niu and the others, lacking education and experience, died without knowing why. How could the great Orochi not recognize it? It can identify it with a single glance.
General Dead Bone has ascended to the elite level, far more powerful than when they last met. The Orochi did not care much, simply considering it a tasty meal to be devoured.
But now…
Amid the Orochi’s fury, there is surprise and astonishment.
“This general is so terrifying, they must not be allowed to live!”
However, only a domain can counter a domain, and the Orochi cannot use a domain.
No matter how powerful its body, how vast its energy, it is still unable to move freely when stuck in the quagmire of a domain.
It can only watch helplessly as the Spider-Woman dancers, the Chief of Man Niu… one by one, fall.
Each failure feels like a slap in its face.
The Orochi continues to rage!
The entire space is shaking, making rumbling noises.
But under the coverage of the domain, the pressure and power cannot affect the other soldiers. They continue to follow General Dead Bone, slaughtering chaotically.
Dead Bone’s expression remains serious. He is not as optimistic as Bone Two and Bone Three are, precisely because he realizes that the Orochi is difficult to handle. Therefore, he chose to take advantage of the situation and deal with the other powerful monsters first.
In this way, whether to advance or retreat, there is room for choice.
After dealing with these, Dead Bone shifts his gaze back to the Orochi. His eyes, radiating a faint blue glow and depths unfathomable, meet the distant, vertical pupils of the giant snake.
Energy sparks explode in mid-air.
Dead Bone flies to a high-rise building, away from the main battlefield. As it no longer suppresses fiercely, the furious Orochi springs into the sky, where its gaze falls, the space even seems to become viscous and heavy.
Dead Bone’s entire body sinks down.
“A power similar to gravity.”
Taking advantage of the power of the domain, it effortlessly shifts, quickly freeing itself. In the blink of an eye, it appears at the side of the Orochi, sweeping out wave after wave of Shadow Slash.
However, at that moment, the already massive body of the Orochi suddenly grew larger. It enlarges against the wind, transforming into a colossal creature encircling gigantic buildings, at least hundreds of meters long.
The Shadow Slash from Dead Bone does wound the giant snake, but the wounds are insignificant in comparison to the massive body of the snake. Moreover, the wounds heal in no time.
Boom—
With the power of the domain, Dead Bone dodges the Orochi’s world-shattering attack. He stretches out his hand, points from afar, and invisible cursed power falls down.
Slow, weaken, drain, weakening armor, and so on and so forth!
Dead Bone stacks his curses continuously. They work, but not significantly enough. The Orochi still radiates an incredibly strong energy that seems to make the space viscous.
If it weren’t for the domain and the pressure on the boundary, Dead Bone wouldn’t even have the ability to cope with the Orochi.
It is still too weak, its power insufficient!
“Let’s have Duo Lai try it.”
In the distance, Duo Lai, who has freed his hands, also sends out thunderbolts and flames from afar. However, his effectiveness is even more disappointing, doing virtually nothing to the Orochi.
If this stalemate continues, Dead Bone undoubtedly will be the first to give out.
As an elite body utilizing the domain—even if Dead Bone uses the hidden backup power that has been accumulated for over a month, he still can’t hold out for long.
Once the domain is gone, there’s no way to restrict the Orochi.
Should one play it safe and make a strategic retreat, or…? But the Orochi’s existence makes the Skeletons uneasy.
General Dead Bone turns his gaze to the Lord.
This time,
Lord Shepherd indeed has a solution.
“The Orochi crosses space to arrive, and it is not without weaknesses.”
Last time, Dead Bone and the God Monster took action, destroyed the Totem, and stopped the arrival of the Orochi.
This time, the Orochi has arrived, but…
At this moment, several Storm Falcons that have been stored in the Lord’s Seal earlier are flying over the ancient city after the tribal powerhouses are wiped out. After scanning around, they soon locate the anchoring point of the Orochi’s arrival.
– The giant wooden totem located in the Spider-Woman Tribe.
Most of the giant tree has come alive, becoming part of the Orochi’s body, but the base remains.
Around the base, tribal monsters of various kinds are lying on the ground in suicide postures. The blood flowing from their bodies is constantly converging towards the base.
“As expected, the Orochi’s gigantic body requires a constant supply of energy.”
“Duo Lai!”
“Captain Duo Lai has received the message!”
The Ever-changing Badge transforms into a pair of white wings, attached to Duo Lai’s back. In the next moment, he turns into a stream of light, leaving the pursuing monsters far behind, and arrives above the Spider-Woman Tribe in no time.
Then, it’s Duo Lai’s forte.
Bombardment!
The badge transforms into a staff, held in his hand.
Giant orange fireballs fall from the sky, followed by a second, a third, and a fourth one.
He faithfully carries out the principle of steady output, to the end.
Bright flames rise, illuminating the dark underground space. Even the entire underground trembles and rumbles, causing worries of a potential collapse.
The Orochi is furious!
It roars out, but its body keeps shrinking, returning to the normal hundred-meter size, and still can’t stop continuing to shrink down, coming to a halt at several dozen meters long.
Yet, even so, the Orochi still boasts a power and energy far surpassing the single skeleton in front of it.
As soon as it had this thought.
General Dead Bone swung down a seemingly ordinary sword, merely wrapped in a shadowy glow.
However, beneath his sword,
was a forty-meter sword aura;
nine layers of Shadow Accumulation condensed;
tens of layers of Decline of the Grief curses gathered at once;
the massive power-up brought by Wailing Death consuming endless dead bodies;
and the power gathered from countless skeletons, resentful spirits, abominations, and other undead creatures on the battlefield.
All things considered, there was a hidden and unfathomable power beneath the surface of the artistic conception, which revealed itself during the encounter.
The tiny pupils of the Orochi expanded in an instant.
Behind it, one solid black stone building after another crumbled to dust.
What also shattered was the enormous body of the Orochi.
It vanished in a tide of black fog as swift as the wind.
“Crack-”
‘Prompt: You have killed the projection of the Fallen God’s Servant, causing injury to the servant ‘Orochi’.’
‘Prompt: As you killed the projection of the Fallen God’s servant, the Blood Totem cleanses itself.’
Duo Lai had previously only managed to destroy the totem without having the time to use her heroic powers to cleanse it.
But with the fall of Orochi, whether it was cleansed or not was irrelevant as the base of the totem was already completely dissipated.
Thin droplets of Light of Heaven and Earth fell, forming a large light ball.
At the same time,
With the extinction of Orochi, the monsters, which were previously frenzied and fearless in the face of death, had the red bloodlust in their eyes fade away. Some monsters began to flee in all directions.
Even so, the battle continued for over two hours, only barely ending when many Skeleton Generals were exhausted.
The streets of the ancient city were in ruins, covered with the corpses of all kinds of monsters.
Copious amounts of Soul Sand and Remnant Souls were left behind.
Duo Lai was picking up as much as she could, even though she could only indulge herself with these Soul Sands, wasn’t it great to be happy?
Mu Yuan believed it was.
Duo Lai derived happiness from it, and he, Mu Yuan, saved the effort of picking up the Soul Sands, which was a double blessing.
Perhaps because there was too much Soul Sand, scattered all over the place, making it difficult to pick up, Duo Lai squeezed out some extra potential and intuitively learned how to skillfully harness the power of gravity.
Wherever she went, the grains of Soul Sand, which looked like fragments, floated up one by one. They occasionally contained dust and pebbles, requiring filtering. The method was much faster than finding and picking them up by hand.
Soon, these Soul Sands and Remnant Souls were gathered by Duo Lai and ultimately brought to Mu Yuan.
“Coo~?”
Duo Lai was asking how much these Remnant Souls would be worth.
Mu Yuan gave it a look, and with an arithmetic ability much stronger than Duo Lai’s… no, infinitely stronger than Duo Lai’s, he estimated the value of these Remnant Souls in a blink of an eye.
“Eight Rare Remnant Souls, sixty-five Three-star Remnant Souls, Two-star Remnant Souls…”
“The total value should be over a hundred Soul Crystals.”
“It’s a pity none of the Rare Remnant Souls I want are here.”
Jackal Warrior, Lizard Swordsman, Serpent Shaman or anything like them, he looked disgusted. He would rather sell them for money.
As Lord Shepherd, without any investor, gold owner dad, or backer, he could only rely on fighting monster tribes to earn a few hundred Soul Crystals of hard-earned money.
“And there’s all this!”
Duo Lai again quickly turned out her pockets, revealing one piece of loot after another, piling up a small mountain in front of them.
Mu Yuan originally thought that Duo Lai’s habit of picking up everything had flared up again, but upon closer inspection, he found…
There was something!
Indeed, the equipment worn by many humanoid monsters was not bad, with 80% of the standard equipment of soldiers. It was a hassle to sell and even with cross-dimensional transportation fees and other costs, it was hard to make a profit… but he had a smithy here, and he could just melt and recycle some usable ore.
At the top of the loot mountain were several weapons that looked quite impressive.
Shadow Battle Axe, Shadow Short Blade, Elemental Hand Crossbow, Thorny Spear.
A total of four pieces of Rare Equipment!
These monsters were equipped more lavishly than his troops in his Tianyuan Territory. They indeed deserved to die.
“And this!”
After turning out the loot, Duo Lai also brought out the most precious gift ball.
Perhaps because there was no purification by the Lord or Hero, and the totem pole had completely broken, the ball was somewhat different from the past. While there was a single quantity, the size was significantly larger.
“I wonder what will come out of it.”
“The specifications of the Totem Pole are not much different from those of the Snake man tribe.”
He had previously thought that the snake people were crudely carved, but he didn’t expect that the Big Serpent was naturally crude in appearance.
However, the Spider-Woman Tribe is the overlord of this place and can throw the Snake man tribe several blocks away, and the gift should be somewhat better, right?
Under Duo Lai’s eager gaze, Mu Yuan reached out and lightly tapped it.
Hum
A ripple spread out, and the half-meter diameter light ball disintegrated like countless crystals. In the next moment, rays of light burst forth.
At the same time, there were also the pop-up messages that sounded by his ear.
‘Prompt: You have obtained 10* Soul Crystals.’
‘Prompt: You have obtained Miracle Blueprints “Guiding Landmark (5/5) (Common)”.’
‘Prompt: You have obtained Miracle Blueprints “Breakthrough Dojo (Rare)”.’
‘Prompt: You have obtained a complete building “Magic Furnace (Excellence)”..’
