Chapter 323: The Loot King Must Die

~6 min read 1,165 words

"What? These skeletons are actually so insidious?"

"They killed players, then deliberately dragged out the time, causing all the treasures from the defeated Golden Ghost King to vanish without a trace?"

"Yes, that is exactly what just happened on the second floor."

"Damn it, I'm going to kill these damned skeletons!!"

At this moment, a sound like a pig being slaughtered rang out.

It was the German Shepherd being held back by four or five people; he wanted to rush forward and fight the Golden Skeleton monster to the death.

The Golden Skeleton monster had stolen his treasures.

The Golden Skeleton monster might have even killed Uncle Tian, who was guarding him—

After all, Uncle Tian was a major asset to him within his family, and now he was just dead.

Everyone gasped in shock.

"These skeletons already possess considerable intelligence. Just now, when they saw the Cyclops King was low on health, they suddenly slowed their attack progress; it turns out they were digging a trap!!!"

At this moment, some people in the crowd who considered themselves somewhat smart analyzed the situation, and these words were heard by some Golden Skeleton soldiers.

"That kid, I've marked you; so you think you're the smart one, huh? Wait until we deal with this big fool, and you'll be next!"

Some Golden Skeletons pointed at the person who had just made the analysis and said.

Terrified, the analyzer's face turned pale. "Brothers, no, my stomach hurts, I have to withdraw first."

Everyone sighed with relief, though they didn't feel ashamed, as these Golden Skeletons were indeed too fierce.

Everyone instinctively put some distance between themselves and the monsters.

The Golden Skeletons cursed and shouted that once they finished off the Cyclops King, they would deal with the crowd.

Those with less courage had already started fleeing.

"Damnable!!"

"Why? Was it you? Come out!"

The Cyclops roared, suspecting that someone in the shadows must have summoned these Golden Skeletons!!

The words he shouted led some to analyze that he might be speaking to that hidden Undead Mage.

"Fine, since you want me to come out, then I will come out!"

Jiang Li directly switched his class equipment, donning a set of warrior gear that looked like cheap street-market goods, holding what appeared to be plain white equipment.

Jiang Li suddenly leaped out from the darkness, startling everyone.

"Damn, the Loot King is here."

"The Loot King???"

"Don't you know? It's Jiang Li; this kid is incredible. He snatched the Dark Elves from Li Mengying and the others in the Gauntlet Dungeon, and later in the First Transmutation Dungeon, he was even more amazing, actually snatching the drop from the Five Elements Jin Gang Skeleton King, directly earning an Eternal evaluation!!!"

"What? The one who killed the Five Elements Jin Gang Skeleton King was him?"

"That's right, it was him."

"But he's doomed too; his behavior has aroused public anger, and the Education Bureau has decided that in one week, he must challenge everyone who participated in the dungeon run with him at that time, fighting them in succession to prove his strength."

"Isn't that a death sentence? Look, his bow is slightly better, but the rest of his gear is all plain white..."

"Eh, that bow of his looks like Golden equipment?"

Jiang Li activated Wind of Nature; ignoring the surrounding chatter, he shouted loudly: "Golden Skeleton grandpas, remember your grandpa's name; I am Jiang Li, nicknamed by the people, the Loot King!!!"

As soon as the words fell.

The Wind Sword in Jiang Li's hand transformed into a whistling projectile and flew straight toward the Cyclops King.

The Cyclops King was already fighting with eyes red with rage.

He was even somewhat delirious.

He thought that a small shrimp suddenly appearing among the humans also wanted to kill him.

"Hmph—"

"I, the mighty Giant King, even in the Dark Abyss, am a general of one region; how can I allow a tiny human to tarnish my prestige!"

"Fire"

"Flame"

"Charge"

"Crash"

The Cyclops King unleashed his ultimate move.

【Skill: Flame Charge.】

【Description: Transform into a wild bull; within one hundred meters, trample everything. Enemies affected by the trample will suffer a stun effect, unable to perform effective attacks.】

"Hmph—"

The onlookers in the distance felt somewhat gleeful at his misfortune.

They believed Jiang Li was finished.

If hit by Flame Charge, then attempting to attack would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Moreover, if an existence of the Cyclops King's level unleashed Flame Charge, the power would certainly be extraordinary.

Indeed, after going berserk, the Cyclops King's body grew three sizes larger, now completely becoming a massive giant about twenty meters tall.

His entire body was engulfed in flames; he roared once, resembling a transformed wild bull.

At this moment, Jiang Li received a mental message from over a hundred Golden Skeletons, telling him to dodge.

But—Jiang Li's gaze was sharp as an eagle's.

"Do you think I will die so easily!"

He silently transmitted a sentence to all the Golden Skeletons in his heart.

Thus, the golden skeleton stood motionless in place as if stunned.

"Die!"

The Cyclops King shifted his steps.

That shifting tread was as if a sky-supporting, earth-standing giant were striking the ground with a massive hammer, the muffled boom alone enough to make one vomit blood.

"Boom—"

"Boom boom boom!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom!!!"

Jiang Li seemed stunned as well, still holding his bow-drawing posture; his angelic wings of Natural Wind had already spread and were flapping slowly.

Not far away, a small portion of the onlookers also turned pale with terror, for dizzy icons had appeared above their heads just as they had above Jiang Li's.

This meant the Cyclops King's attack would engulf them as well.

Yet now it was too late to flee; in their dazed state, they could not budge their feet at all.

Flame Charge—produces a daze effect within its attack range.

The Cyclops King moved; wherever he passed, all the golden skeleton soldiers turned to dust.

"This was originally reserved for that person! Now I must deal with you, a mere ant!"

The Cyclops transformed into a twenty-meter-tall flame barbarian bull and charged straight at Jiang Li.

"Hmph—"

Jiang Li merely snorted coldly.

Just when everyone believed Jiang Li was doomed,

when the flame barbarian bull had charged to within less than five meters of Jiang Li,

the entire body of the flame barbarian bull suddenly became coated in frost, and its movement slowed for an instant.

Though it lasted only one second, it indeed occurred.

At that very moment, Jiang Li directly activated the Natural Wind in his hand.

A white streak that cleaved through the air along its path shot straight toward the Cyclops King's head.

"Pfft!"

The Natural Wind transformed into a sharp arrow and pierced three inches into the Cyclops King's forehead.

It was precisely these three inches of damage that consumed the Cyclops King's last sliver of health.

"No—"
