Chapter 543

The first wave of attack is an area-of-effect sonic assault that ignores certain defenses to deal mixed damage.

The second wave is explosive damage, dealing physical damage.

The third wave is an energy surge, dealing terrifying absolute damage and finishing damage (similar to execute damage, but stronger).

Luo Chenyu studied this skill through 【Insight Eye】, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

For this attack, just focus on the final segment's damage.

Then…

A Tier 10 Puppet King certainly cannot break through the defenses of 【Steel Shield】 and 【Eternal·Thunder Shield Wall】.

And…

Luo Chenyu had another idea in mind.

He would directly tank the first wave's sonic attack and the second wave's explosive damage!

"Here it comes!!"

Luo Chenyu's lips curled slightly; instead of retreating, he advanced, using 【Leap】 to appear directly before the Tier 10 Puppet King.

"Hit me!!"

Outside the AoE range, he planned to tank the third segment of damage!

Exactly!!

Activate 【Defend】 and tank it!

Boom!!

The energy projectile shot forth, striking the energy barrier formed by 【Defend】, and instantly reflected all energy back.

Just one strike.

It drained 5% of the Tier 10 Puppet King's health and inflicted stun!

The damage left Luo Chenyu stunned.

If he'd been hit directly, his shield value would've been shattered!

"Kill it, then turn it into a demonic puppet!"

Luo Chenyu admitted—he was tempted.

This Tier 10 demonic puppet had high stats and excellent skills; it was a qualified frontline tank with decent output.

As a "HR," this subordinate was worth having!

If so…

Then let's send it on its way.

With the Purple Illusion Sky Hammer in hand, 【Savage Charge】 combined with the second stage of 【Sky Crushing】!

Purple Void Thunder·Soul Manifestation·Sky Crushing!!

A terrifying great hammer struck.

Boom!!

Waves of energy surged, carrying away the last of the Tier 10 Puppet King's health.

Its body shattered into fragments under the terrifying force.

Finally, it turned to dust!

The trial countdown in the sky abruptly stopped.

At the same time.

A series of notification messages appeared before Luo Chenyu.

"Ding! You killed the Level 220 Tier 10 Puppet King 【Finality·Indestructible Wood Puppet】, gained 5.52 billion XP, and received an additional reward: Wood Element Resistance +20%!"

"Ding! Your pet 【Phantom Heart (Red)】 gained 5.52 billion XP, due to…"

"々｀ Ding! You successfully cleared the 【Indestructible Wood Puppet Array】 trial, reward calculation in progress!!"

"Ding! You triggered the special title 【Godslayer】 effect, Constitution +1000 points!"

"Ding! You triggered the 【Killing Field】 special effect, all attributes +3000 points, absolute damage reduction +20000 points!"

"Ding! …"

The settlement continued.

But…

Luo Chenyu frowned tightly and reviewed the message log again.

"Where's the demonic effect of 【Killing Field】?"

"Why no notification? Why no sign of the skill activating?"

At this moment, Luo Chenyu recalled: since he charged into the 【Indestructible Wood Puppet Array】 to kill monsters, there had never been a single prompt about demonic puppet transformation.

That means…

These Indestructible Wood Puppets cannot be affected by 【Killing Field】.

The demonic puppet effect is nullified!!

"Could there be something different about this place?"

Luo Chenyu couldn't figure it out.

But…

There was no time to ponder further.

The surrounding environment had already begun to change.

All shattered logs reappeared, filling the entire 【Indestructible Wood Puppet Array】, as if the battle had never occurred.

Before Luo Chenyu's eyes, the settlement panel now displayed three.

"Ding! Settlement successful!"

"Ding! You have successfully passed the 【Indestructible Wooden Man Array】 trial, in 113 minutes and 37 seconds, base rating C!"

"Ding! Your correct pathing rate during the trial was 0.2%, rating reduced by 1000%!"

"Ding! You defeated over 10,000 monsters during the trial, rating increased by 5000%!"

"Ding! Your maximum damage during the trial exceeded 10 billion, rating increased by 1000%!"

"Ding!..."

"Ding! You have ultimately achieved an SSS rating in the 【Indestructible Wooden Man Array】 trial, awarded: Indestructible Wood Spirit Pearl +1, Mu Yi · Divine Crystal +1!"
