On the map, over a hundred red dots suddenly appeared. At that moment, my heart nearly stopped. This was the beginning of an unbelievably unfair situation. There was no doubt about it, this was unfair!
âLook, check what level those monsters areâ¦â I asked while I fought the BOSS, âMeng Chang Jun only has 20% health left. Dong Cheng, Dancing Forest, Tang Xue, make sure your firepower doesnât run out. Li Mu, Little Wolf, and Wan Er, you guys need to think of a way to hold off those monsters. We have to slow them down. Weâll finish the BOSS in 10 minutes!â
â¦â¦
Li Mu raised his sword with both hands, his face green, âGuild Master⦠theyâre all Lv 91 Valkyrie Tier BOSS-es. How are we supposed to block them?!â
âWhat?!â
I quickly turned around, and my eyes were about to roll out of my head. It was just as Li Mu had said. All of the monsters that crawled out of the graves were all Lv 91 BOSS-es. Motherf*cker, these were all Meng Chang Junâs mercenaries, strategists, and intellectuals. Right now, theyâve all crawled out, and every single one was worth a thousand normal soldiers. Was our little [Zhan Long] team going to die like this!?
One after another, familiar names seemed to pop up. The few that stood at the very front had arms covered with blight and their names listed above their heads ââ
[Feng Xuan] (Valkyrie Tier BOSS): Meng Chang Junâs Mercenary
[Su Dai] (Valkyrie Tier BOSS): Meng Chang Junâs Mercenary
[Wei Bao] (Valkyrie Tier BOSS): Meng Chan Junâs Mercenary
â¦â¦
âF*ck, why are these names so familiar?!â I gaped.
Li Mu was also gaping, âThis⦠Feng Xuan, Su Dai. Arenât those famous ancient people? Isnât this bullsheet?â
I was suddenly slammed into the wall by Meng Chang Junâs Dragon Spear and nodded, âItâs extreme bullsheet!â
Dong Cheng Yue yelled as she cast a spell, âSaying this stuff now isnât gonna help us. Hurry up and think of something! Otherwise once these zombies attack, weâll definitely be annihilated!â
Li Mu shouted, âThen what do we do?â
Little Wolf didnât have a plan either, âBoss, think of a plan already!â
I gritted my teeth, âIâm already in this state. How am I supposed to think of a plan!â
Wan Er gripped her Dragonâs Kiss, her eyes extremely cold, âFor the sake of the team, weâll just have to make sacrifices. Little Wolf and Li Mu, you guys charge with me. Weâll lure the BOSS-es away, and lead them to one of the corners of the palace. Letâs let Li Xiao Yao, Matcha, and Dong Cheng safely kill the BOSS. Even if we were to die, then itâll be worth it!â
Li Mu nodded, âAlright!â
The three people rushed to the other three corners of the palace. Just as expected, they separated the 100+ BOSS-es to three different corners while I continued to circle Meng Chang Jun. My Flaming Tiger God had already died four times. The losses this time were just too great. On top of that, Matcha had been using [Fierce Ram] and [Justice Provocation] in order to help me survive!
â¦â¦
âF*ck, Iâm doneâ¦â
From a distance, Li Muâs voice traveled over. He had been surrounded by the zombie mercenaries and fell to his knees. In the distance, Little Wolf and Wan Erâs luck was much better. They were Assassins, and so once they lured the BOSS-es away, they would suddenly disappear, completing their task without taking any damage.
Dancing Forest wasnât too far away from me. She set up a [Beast Trap] and in the next moment, Meng Chang Junâs War Horse neighed as it stepped into the trap. It was stunned for 3 seconds. Wan Er and Little Wolf charged forward, then used [Absolute Step] to run away. I, on the other hand, let my two swords dance, dealing out as much damage possible. Once all of my skill cooldowns finished, the BOSSâs health kept on dropping lower and lower. It was almost completely killed. Otherwise, Li Muâs ghost will have to wait a long time before it can be revived.
I carefully watched Meng Chag Junâs health. I even had to use [Seven Star Teleportation], or else my healing would never be able to catch up with the damage I was receiving!
âShua!â
Once I stepped into one of the spots, Meng Chang Junâs Dragon Spear stabbed through thin air. He roared in anger, âDammit. You wily little scoundrel, I will cut you into a thousand pieces!â
Unfortunately, I had to activate my [Seven Star Teleportation] every time to dodge [Horse Rush]. At worst, I could also use [Blade Rush] to dodge the attacks. In the distance, Dancing Forest and Dong Cheng Yue used ice type skills to slow down the BOSS, making it easier to kill him.
To be honest, Meng Chang Jun had summoned 100 mercenaries. But, now that they were all lured away, these mercenaries werenât a big problem. These mercenaries didnât have as high an AI as Meng Chang Jun, and canât automatically run over to attack. Otherwise, it wouldnât be a 10 man SSS Tier Quest, but a 100 man God Tier quest. These 100+ Valkyrie Tier BOSSes werenât something that normal parties of ten could deal with.
I stared at Meng Chang Junâs health. My heart beat faster and I smiled, âThis Saint Tier BOSS wonât drop a Saint Tier equipment for me, will it?â
Wan Er bit her lip, âIs it that easy to drop a Saint Tier Equipment? The reward for being MVP of the City War was a Saint Tier equipment. I feel like the drop rate should be extremely lowâ¦â
âYea, letâs just pray to Lady Luck then! Little Wolf, go lure those BOSSes away from Li Mu. Let him revive so he can get some experience!â
âAlright!â
The BOSSâs health felt lower and lower. We all basically stared at it as it dwindledââ
7%!
6%!
5%!
â¦â¦
All the way until there was only 1% left. There was only 10,000 health left, and the ten of us had completely recovered our firepower. Finally, with one of my attacks, Meng Chang Junâs horse cried out and fell to its knees, throwing its owner to the ground. Meng Chang Jun yelled out, âMy fate is set, Iâm afraid I cannot continue my cause!â
âShua!â
A ray of light fell on me. Because I was the one that killed the BOSS, I was able to rise all the way to Lv 83. At the same time, Meng Chang Junâs dead corpse dropped several equipments, all of which were dazzling!
Li Mu picked up his sword and walked over, while he grinned, âSacrificing myself for the sake of the teamâ¦â
I nodded, âOk, once we get a sword, weâll give it to you first!â
âThen Iâd feel a bit rude!â
âThen give it to me firstâ¦â
âWowâ¦â
âItâs so hard to please youâ¦â
â¦â¦
I walked up front and moved Meng Chang Junâs battle cloak out of the way. There were three pieces of equipment piled underneath. There was a red and green colored wrist guard, an unusual mage cloak, and a pair of leather leg guards. I first picked up the wrist guards. There was a bizarre energy that emanated from it. I waved my hand over the wrist guards, and the stats appeared. Heh, it was a Valkyrie Tier equipment, good stuffââ

â¦â¦
I raised the Valkyrie Tier wrist guards and smiled, âThen Iâll follow up with my promise⦠Li Mu, this wrist guard is yours! I follow through with what I say, or else that level that you lost will be for naughtâ¦â¦â
Li Mu rubbed his nose, âNever mind. I was just saying. A Lv 82 Valkyrie Tier equipment, it isnât any old cheap equipment. Why donât we roll for this, whoever wins, gets it. That way I wonât feel bad!â
I patted my own wrist guards and smiled, âWhy would you feel bad? Right now, I have the Divine Dragon Slaying Arms equipped. Theyâre also Valkyrie Tier. Even though the defense is a little worse, the [Defeat the Dragon] special skill outweighs the cost. Iâll be using these wrist guards until Lv 100.â
Li Mu nodded, âWell alright then, I might as well!â
I continued to look through the equipment. That unusual Mage robe was as white as snow and sparkled. It was as soft as a girlâs skinâ¦â¦ eh, that was a bit exaggerated. To be honest, it just felt very nice in my hand. On top of that, you could tell that it had a lot of magic power imbued in it. When we shared the the stats, Thousand Suns over Snowy Lands and Dong Cheng both took a deep breathââ
[Robe of the Talented] (Valkyrie Tier)

â¦â¦
Raising the Robe of the Talented, I smiled, âYou two, why donât you ROLL again. Now that weâve entered the Grave of the Warring States, the people who want it the most are probably you guys. All equipments are dependent on the ROLL!â
Dong Cheng Yue carefully began the ROLL, and it stopped on 71!
Tang Xue was a little nervous. As soon as she let go, it landed on 49. At that moment, she cried, âSuch a good robe⦠well a loss is a loss. Looks like my luck today really isnât that good. Before, I never really ROLLed below a 50â¦â
I threw the Robe of the Talented to Dong Cheng Yue and smiled. âKeep it up! Thereâs still a last BOSS. It will be at least a Saint Tier. On top of that, its drop rate will be pretty high, itâll definitely drop something that is at least as good as this BOSSâs!â
Wan Er blinked a few times, âThe last BOSS should be the legendary Xin Ling Jun that saved Zhao?â
I looked at the Tiger Talisman and said, âYup, or else they wouldnât use this Tiger Talisman as the introduction. The last BOSS is undoubtedly Xin Lin Jun.â
Continuing on, I looked at the last piece of equipment. It was a pair of leather leg guards. Our luck was pretty great, it was another Valkyrie Tier equipment. As long as it wasnât Gold or Silver equipment, then it is all good!
[Pursue and Kill] (Valkyrie Tier)
Type: Leather

Endurance: +72
Strength: +69
Additional: Increases the userâs defense by 14%
Additional: Increases the userâs attack by 100 and attack speed by 10%

â¦â¦
They were a pair of extremely good leather leg guards. I looked at Little Wolf and Wan Er, âLittle Wolf, why donât you ROLL with Wan Er?â
âNo need!â
Wan Er stood up and smiled, âIâm wearing Lv 77 Valkyrie Tier leg guards right now. Why donât you give it to Little Wolf!â
Little Wolf was unable to contain his joy, âThen Iâll just thank the little miss!â
âNo need to thank me, youâre Li Xiao Yaoâs brother, so youâre one of us.â
âYup yup!â
Little Wolf took the leg guards. Since his level was a little low, he could only wait to put them on.
â¦â¦
After splitting up the soul gems and cards, we got another Guild Creation Tablet as well. Our luck wasnât bad this time. I pondered for a second, we could use the tablets to create [Zhan Long]âs third and fourth divisions. This was a necessary item!
We discovered an entrance under the throne behind Meng Chang Jun. Letâs head to the fourth floor, Xin Lin Jun is waiting for us!
I looked at the pitch dark hole and took a deep breath, âKeep it up! Weâll get through this night and finish this quest! If you canât take it anymore then say somethingâ¦â¦â
