Chapter 302: Chapter 302 - 302 The Rich Lady, Famished (II)

302 The Rich Lady, Famished (II)

“Then, let’s enter.”

“With Mumu’s army of spirit souls, we might not be able to do much, but it won’t be a problem for us to keep ourselves alive.”

“It really won’t be a problem.”

“I still have the Protective Barrier scroll that dad gave me.”

“It can last for two hours,”

“Ensure everyone’s safety.”

Lin Ye: “???”

“Two hours?”

“You have 12 Protective Barrier scrolls on you?”

The defensive barrier scroll was the invincibility scroll that the Rivertown Professional Alliance had given to Lin Ye, Bai Zhi, and Su Mumu. After using it, it could summon a golden barrier and make the person inside invincible for ten minutes without taking any damage. However, they couldn’t leave their spot either.

The rarity of this item was no less than that of equipment with a reduced cooldown. It was a strategic item that could not be bought even with money.

He didn’t expect Nolan to have so many…

Nolan nodded.

“I actually have 30, but the Protective Barrier scroll has a hidden usage limit. After using 12 of them in a row, you have to wait for a day to cooldown before you can use a new Protective Barrier scroll again.”

Lin Ye held his forehead, speechless.

“Thirty…”

“Your family is so rich…”

“Let’s not talk about it anymore. Rich lady, I’m famished, you know.”

Shangguan Yan raised his nose, clearly proud.

“Yes indeed! Nolan’s family is very rich. They are richer than three Huang Tianqis combined.”

“And there are exclusive channels where we can get those rare items and consumables. However, we can’t get high-quality equipment and skill books.”

“The high-level secret dungeon that drops those items are all in the hands of Professionals.”

“They don’t like to be exposed either.”

Lin Ye was speechless.

‘That’s why I ran away from my wedding’ my *ss!’

‘She’s beautiful, sweet, and comes from a rich family. She has fair skin, is rich, beautiful, and a genius. She likes to wear a red cheongsam that shows off her legs. If it were Mumu, I would faint from the rush, but you actually dislike it?’

Nolan opened her bag and took out ten protection barrier scrolls. She distributed five scrolls to Lin Ye and Su Mumu.

“Oh.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

“I wanted to give you these Protective Barrier scrolls before.”

“But in the end, you went back to Hive not long after you arrived at school. I had a lot of things to deal with, so I forgot about them…”

Su Mumu’s head was full of question marks.

“Uh… This thing…”

“Lin Ye?”

(?_??)

Lin Ye didn’t stand waiting and directly accepted the Protective Barrier scroll that Nolan gave him. He put it in his bag and said to Su Mumu, “Take it.”

“We’ll definitely have a use for these defensive barrier scrolls in the future.”

“Did Bai Zhi get some too?”

Bai Zhi nodded her head lightly.

“Yes…”

“Sister Nolan gave it to me when school started…”

‘Alright.’

‘As a result.’

‘Our team is finally formed.’

A single main damage dealer, two support pendants, two group pets lady Bosses, in addition to an almost invincible army of spirit souls, they were like the four Hive Brothers.

Then, there was also the God-tier talent “luck goddess,” who could get high-grade weapons, equipment, and skill books, and the God-tier rich lady “Nolan” who could get rare items and materials.

‘We have become a true cheater team!’

…

After deciding on their tactics and preparing their life-saving items, everyone entered Cain’s Dream and stepped on the white and flawless city streets.

In an instant.

The system notification popped up.

[Prompt: You have made your choice!]

[Prompt: The dungeon’s mission target has been changed-kill Cain!]

“Foolish, mortal!”

...

“You are challenging the dignity of the gods!”

“Go to hell!”

Along with Cain’s angry voice in the sky, countless Platinum 5-star Ogre Soldier souls rushed out of the white buildings in the dream Ogre City. All of them were Elite monster panels.

Lin Ye and the others started to fight back… Oh, no, it was the army of spirit souls that began to counterattack.

Shangguan Yan and Nolan’s bodies were too fragile. Against these supermodel monsters, without taunting jobs like healers to attract aggro, it was likely that they would be hit by several damage skills at the same time and die instantly.

Lin Ye had to save up his mana to deal with the final Boss and be in his best condition for battle, so he didn’t really attack.

So, he relied on Hidden Moon’s Phantom Moon jellyfish.

It was enough to replenish the HP of the army of spirit souls that the siege of these secret realm monsters had lost.

He didn’t need to use any other healing skills.

After that, the group advanced along King’s Lane in Ogre City, killing a few unknown secret dungeon Bosses along the way. Finally, they arrived at the last gate to the palace.

The Baishi general and the Heishi General were still standing on the steps. The only difference was that they had become extremely handsome, unlike the undead-like rotting ghouls from before.

...

Also, their attribute panels had risen from 1-star Diamond to 3-star Diamond. They were many times stronger than Smoke Teacher.

This was because, above Diamond, every increase in star level was a qualitative change, far beyond the increase in star level during Platinum-level.

For example,

The difference between a 1-star Platinum and a 9-star Platinum was from one to nine, and the difference between a 9-star Platinum and a 1-star Diamond was from nine to twenty.

From 1-star to 2-star Diamond, it was 20 to 70. From 2-star to 3-star Diamond, it was 70 to 200.

They were even more difficult to deal with now than when they were in the ghoul state.

This was especially so for General Heishi, who had various healing and shield skills. If they did not find a way to limit his healing and shield abilities, the army of spirit souls that could deal close to 10,000 damage in one round of skills would be reduced to more than 200 to 300 damage. They would need to stall for at least ten minutes before they could kill the two of them.

Su Mumu was speechless.

“Lin Ye!”

“These two guys can’t fight!”

“A sip of milk can add more than 10,000 points of their HP, and it also has a shield that can resist all kinds of damage. The speed at which the souls deal damage is not even as fast as the speed at which they recover health!”

Lin Ye raised the blade in his hand.

“I know!”

“Let the army of spirit souls continue to attack!”

“I’ll kill the high-damage Baishi General first!”

Six-Winged Angel’s Blessing! The time of Silence! Reversal healing set!

BOOM!

‘Great ruin!’

‘It didn’t die!’

General Baishi was speechless.

General Heishi General was speechless.

The two of them had a tacit understanding. They gave up on the pumpkin-headed soldier that they had bullied the weakest. They first used purification and dispel to deal with the debuff on their bodies, then gave themselves a big mouth of HP to pull their health back to a safe 80% or more.

Then, they ran towards Lin Ye, planning to kill the most powerful enemy that could threaten them first.

Lin Ye decisively used his Flickering Stone and flashed to the top of the palace gate’s beam, not giving the General Heishi, who only had melee damage, a chance to hit him.

Then, he took out the Ancient King of Iron’s summoning card and summoned this big guy in front of him to resist the long-range magic attack thrown by General Baishi.

It was an unstoppable curse skill.

He would take it head-on.

After it hits him, he uses Phantom Moon jellyfish to strengthen his HP.

When his Aqua Tide’s skill was ready, he would use the skill’s dispel, not giving General Baishi the chance to stack his damage and debuff.

Then, using the Ancient King of Iron’s human shield fighting style, Lin Ye’s damage output was maxed out. Combined with the crazy damage output of his spirit soul army, he successfully beheaded General Baishi before his healer skill cooled down.

The remaining general, Heishi’s, damage output was severely lacking. He was like a sandbag that could be easily beaten.

Not to mention.

It was also unlucky enough to receive the negative status of ‘reduced healing’ and ‘silence’ from Stars Godly Glory.

This increased the speed at which everyone killed it.

[Prompt: You have killed “Cain’s enslaved General, Baishi”!]

[Prompt: You have killed “Cain’s enslaved General, Heishi”!]

[Prompt: The key to the entrance of Ogre Palace has been obtained! You can now open the gates to the Ogre Palace!]

Looking at the system prompts, Shangguan Yan sighed in relief.

“F*ck!”

“We’ve finally killed him!”

“These two conjoined twins were really disgusting!”

“Healing, shield. dispel invincibility, and curse weakening AoE… It’s just as overpowered as your skill set. Lin Ye…”

“Don’t worry,” Lin Ye said.

“The truly disgusting part is yet to come.”

“Cain is at least three times more difficult to deal with than these two generals.”

After a pause, he took a deep breath and slowly said,

“Nolan.”

“Get ready.”

“The final Boss stage should be up ahead.”

“After I open the palace gate, tear open the Protective Barrier scroll immediately. Don’t think about saving resources, or the ‘open gate kill might wipe you out’!”

Nolan, who was holding the Protective Barrier scroll, nodded seriously.

“Okay.”

“I’m ready,”

“Open the door,”

Lin Ye pushed open the gates of the Ogre Palace. With the dull sound of the gate rubbing against the ground, Cain, who was sitting on the throne in the hall, appeared in front of everyone.

And…

The final Boss panel given by the system…
