Chapter 382

At the very least... she was still alive.

Su Ming felt some worry in his heart, but he had to return to the Heavenly Tower Realm to have a way to save her.

"I weighed it, and your plan is indeed better." Jiang Lan said suddenly while they were traveling.

Her voice was crisp and capable, and she was wearing a black robe.

Even with the concealing black cloak, it was hard to hide her curvaceous, mature figure.

When she lowered her head, no one saw that her eyes had become somewhat cold.

She suddenly felt that after experiencing so many years of business battles, she had almost become as pedantic as those old men and company bosses in high positions.

Being with these young people today, she could finally find back some bloodiness...

She had been too bound by convention in the past, not daring to take risks, but now, she wanted to return to the mindset of a class-changer.

"Now that the family is destroyed, there is no one to rely on."

"I also truly need to find back some combat techniques."

Jiang Lan knew well the situation of her and her sister now; without strength, they couldn't protect themselves at all.

She gripped her firearm tightly and ran at the very front.

After Jiang Lan led everyone across a ruined cemetery, a terrifying scene came into view.

Ahead, a large pit for burning corpses came into view!

A circular corpse pit with a diameter of ten meters and a depth of about five meters was filled with the rotting corpses of villagers infected with corruption, all of which had been charred.

Flies and insects danced wildly, and maggots were everywhere; the wriggling pus seemed to have already gained life.

This corpse pit was not wide, but it was disgusting enough.

Although these remains had been burned, it was clear that the corruption virus within the corpses hadn't been completely eradicated.

Bone ash and charred flesh were all over the pit, emitting a strong, foul odor.

Even Su Ming felt a surge in his stomach.

"This pit is the BOSS area; the BOSS hasn't appeared yet."

"After you are ready, take a step forward, and you should be able to disturb the BOSS." Jiang Lan said.

"Sister, since the BOSS hasn't been triggered, then how do you know this is the BOSS area?" Jiang Yunqing held her staff and asked with some doubt.

Jiang Lan took out a small pendant from her waist, which was flashing with red light.

"This pendant was a gift from Father on the day before my eighteenth awakening day."

"To help me achieve good results in the novice dungeon."

Her eyes fell into memories as she said.

"When approaching the BOSS area, it will gradually tremble violently; if you enter the BOSS battle area, it will emit red light."

"However, it can only take effect on E-grade and below dungeons."

"Hidden BOSSes can't be found either; it only works on ordinary BOSSes, but it's enough." Jiang Lan said, putting away the pendant.

"It's good that the BOSS hasn't been triggered; this way, no one will rush over to get in the way." Yan Ze said, taking out his bow, killing intent already surging in his eyes.

If the BOSS's location had already been discovered, then the Zhang family and other rogue players might also think that everyone would use the method of killing the BOSS to escape, and they would set up an ambush in advance.

So for everyone, this was a good thing.

Su Ming took out a dark blue arrow quiver and handed it to Yan Ze.

This was equipment he had obtained earlier after slaughtering an archer.

After sublimation, it reached mid-tier platinum.

"This arrow quiver is called Endless Blue Radiance; you can infinitely draw arrows by consuming mental energy, and the arrows inside will all carry water-attribute enchantment attacks."

"And, after equipping it, this arrow quiver can also provide a 5% critical hit chance."

Yan Ze nodded, took it, and tied it to his back.

Now the relationship between the few was such that there was no need to say thank you.

Su Ming gently placed Ji Yao behind a tree, letting her sit leaning against it.

Then he himself walked to the corpse pit and drew his Frost-Flame Death Scar broken sword.

"Are you ready?"

Su Ming looked around at everyone and asked with a sharp gaze.

Everyone nodded; although Yan Ze and Jiang Yunqing's mental energy hadn't recovered much, there was no time to delay, and they had to start the battle immediately!

Su Ming took a step forward, and the majestic aura of his whole body immediately disturbed the BOSS here.

Clang-clatter!

The next instant, a dazzling fire-cracking light erupted from the burning corpse pit.

Intense high temperature sprayed out, smoke and stench rolled, and countless remains made crisp sounds.

Pitch-black charred bones twisted and wriggled, gathering toward the center.

Finally, it actually condensed into a rotting giant composed purely of countless corpses.

The corpse giant was over six meters tall, its whole body covered in pus and maggots.

Because it was composed of charred and rotting corpses, its whole body was covered in dense human heads, as well as human hands, feet, and arms hanging on its body, as terrifying as the leg hair of a spider.

【World BOSS has appeared, coordinates...】

Suddenly, this news was notified to all server players.

Su Ming immediately scanned the BOSS's data, praying there was no second phase, so they could slaughter it as fast as possible!

Otherwise, after hearing the news of the world rules, other players would soon rush over!

【Source of Corruption: Burning Corpse Giant (BOSS)】

【Corpses infected with corruption were discarded in this deep pit, but the villagers did not know that burning could not eradicate the corruption in the corpses... Thus, the corruption inside the corpses gathered in one place, and over the years, it eventually infected everything, spread out, and became it.】

【Level: 28】

【Current HP: 100%】

【Strength: 652】

【Constitution: 425】

【Agility: 131】

【Spirit: 2】

【Luck: 10】

【Skills】

【Source of Corruption: It is the source of the corruption; it can command all rotting villagers, and the blood, pus, and remains within its body are all attached with the corruption virus; once contaminated, one is immediately infected.】

【Mouth of Fire Sores: It was born in fire; it can spray green burning-corpse poison flames from its mouth, and the flames carry rotting damage.】

【Brittle Flesh: Negative passive skill; its whole body is composed of charred remains, so its body is extremely brittle, weak to blunt weapons and impact damage, and it has no self-healing ability.】

【Rotting Wailing: It kneels and wails, emitting a rotting sonic attack that can cause those who hear it to feel severe pain throughout their bodies and have their skin ulcerate.】

【Giant Hammering: Its hands clasp together into a hammer, lift high, and smash down violently.】

【...】

The Second-Turn BOSS was indeed as he had expected, not very powerful!

It even had a negative passive that weakened its combat power.

That made things easy to handle. ===== CHAPTER 384 =====
