Chapter 98: The Owl Beast Clan's Riot! Zhou Xiaoying Panics!

Falling from over forty meters high, even someone with a physique as strong as Luo Chenyu couldn't help but cough up a mouthful of blood at this moment.

Fortunately, 【Defensive Stance】 was activated.

He got up, quickly collected the BOSS's dropped items, and retreated at top speed.

More and more rocks were falling—this was no place to linger.

As he left.

He checked the kill notification log for the BOSS.

"Ding! You have slain the Level 50 Hard Mode BOSS 【Night Owl King】, gaining 500,000 experience points!"

"Ding! Because you have slain the offspring of 【Owl Beast King】, the 【Night Owl King】, you have drawn the enmity of the Owl Beast Clan. The Owl Beast Clan will pursue you endlessly within the borders of Yangshan!"

The two messages left Luo Chenyu momentarily stunned, then overjoyed.

Pursuit?

The 【Night Owl King】 is quite the well-connected one!

However…

Isn't this simply delivering goods right to my doorstep?

So, he immediately changed direction and ran toward the outside of Yangshan.

Crouching outside and waiting for monsters to deliver themselves, and if he encountered monsters he couldn't handle, he could still retreat in time.

Along the way, countless Owl Beasts attacked.

Wind Blades, Wind Knives, Gale Art… crazily attacking Luo Chenyu.

The damage wasn't much, but it made Luo Chenyu ecstatic.

So many monsters—absolutely thrilling.

Fighting his way out of the encirclement, he arrived at a hill on the border of Yangshan.

His gaze swept into the distance—mountains and plains were filled with the figures of Owl Beasts, and the sky was packed with them.

One man!

Fighting the entire Owl Beast Clan alone!

Refreshing shields and one-shotting monsters—that was what Luo Chenyu was doing now.

In his "free time," Luo Chenyu also opened the skill panel to check the evolutions of a few skills.

【Steel Shield (Greed)】: Damage absorption increased from 30× Constitution to 40×. The 50% defense bonus after the shield disappears has been raised to 100%. The shields of teammates can also be controlled independently. Other effects have also been slightly enhanced.

Most importantly, the shield's duration has become infinite.

From now on, he could use the Greed effect to stack shields in a "foolproof" manner, achieving the concept of an infinite shield.

PS: This skill description will continue to be simplified!

……

【Savage Charge】: A mutated active skill. Charge rapidly in one direction, ignoring all obstacles in the path, dealing massive charge damage to the final target and causing brief stun.

Skill Cost: 100 MP!

Cooldown: 30S!

Stun Duration: 2S!

Maximum Charge Distance: 150M!

Extra Effect ①: After the charge ends, immediately gain a damage-absorption shield equal to twice the HP cap, lasting 10 seconds. This shield can stack with 【Steel Shield】 and can be detonated. While the shield persists, gain a thorns effect and cause the target to lose 50% HP recovery.

Extra Effect ②: After the charge ends, gain a charge-up effect, increasing the next attack's damage by 100%, and additionally adding true damage equal to 10% of one's own max HP!

……

"Hiss!"

Luo Chenyu sucked in a cold breath—the second extra effect was simply too brutal.

After charging, damage doubles, and it also comes with true damage that ignores defense and ignores shields.

From now on, his burst damage would be even more stable, and even more ferocious.

As for the blessing of 【Life Goddess's Sanctuary】, the level was still LV. 3, but Luo Chenyu felt it was about to level up soon.

He also didn't know at what level 【Life Goddess's Sanctuary】 could complete its evolution.

……

Yangshan had completely descended into chaos.

Countless Owl Beasts came rushing from deep within Yangshan, among them no shortage of high-level elite monsters and BOSSes.

The more monsters, the happier Luo Chenyu became.

And he discovered a BUG that couldn't quite be called a BUG—as long as his 【Steel Shield】 was active, after ten seconds, the damage generated by refreshing the 【Steel Shield】 skill could all be inherited by the "Greed" effect.

This was the true infinite stacking!

Even though the Owl Beasts' damage was extremely high, his shield was steadily increasing.

"At this rate, who could possibly kill me!"

Luo Chenyu laughed.

【Steel Shield】, at this moment, had thoroughly become a BUG-like existence.

In just over half an hour, his shield had stacked up to over a million.

And that didn't even count the durability that had been chipped away—that number was even more terrifying.

Yangshan Parking Lot.

Several dozen people had gathered, including Zhou Xiaoying's squad.

At this moment, they stared dumbfounded at the Owl Beasts covering the mountains and plains, discussing in astonishment.

"The Owl Beasts of Yangshan are rioting—so many monsters rushing out from the depths, what on earth is it for?"

"This matter can't be separated from the collapse of Jianfeng. Jianfeng is the roost of the Night Owls. I'm afraid the commotion just now was a powerful expert fighting the 【Night Owl King】!"

"A level-50 hard-mode BOSS, its strength has already reached Tier 4, and it can fly too. Even Tier 5 professionals generally can't do anything about it. Who could fight it in its own home? Is there a professional like that in Longshan City? Never heard of one."
