Chapter 411: Returning to the Old Place, Old Witch's Clothing Store

【You have arrived at the 【Graveyard of the Lost Heart】, you decide—】

【1. Dig Grave, see if there are any good burial goods.】

【2. Feel the atmosphere here is a bit strange, leave in a hurry.】

【3. Look around to see if there is anything, and pay respects to the Undead by the way.】

【4. Choose to dance at the grave of the Lost Heart. 【God of Fear and Plague? Option】】

【5. Purify this area! 【Brave Option】】

Five options, huh.

Hmm, digging a grave is definitely not an option, choosing to leave directly in option two might be fine, but I'm afraid I'll miss this event.

Option three. If there are no special options, perhaps this is the best one.

As for the last two special options.

Why is the special option for the God of Fear and Plague to dance at a grave!

Dance at your head!

And the Purify option for the Brave. Tell me how to purify it!

If you don't say it, how would I know how to purify it.

Is it the kind of purification like divine arts, prayer, or putting the Undead to rest, or is it the kind of purification that kills all the Undead here? Yun Mu's index finger tapped rhythmically on her chin, a thoughtful expression appearing on her face.

I really don't know what to choose.

Let's leave the options there for now and observe for a while before making a decision.

"Whose graveyard is this?" Laidun gripped his War Hammer vigilantly, his gaze constantly sweeping the surroundings.

He warned: "This is in the polluted area of the Portal, it's hard to say what kind of changes the corpses might undergo, we had better be careful."

"Mm, I know." Yun Mu nodded gently.

Passing through the stone fence on the outskirts of the graveyard, Yun Mu and the others walked into the interior of the graveyard together with the Dwarves.

The environment here looked somewhat eerie, the pale gray mist was impenetrable even to Yun Mu's sight, and visibility was reduced to only about five or six meters around her.

Tombstones of stone or wood were placed randomly, the writing on them seemed to have been there for a long time, polished by the Wind or the Damp environment until the specific style could no longer be seen.

The surrounding environment gradually became silent, and gradually only the sound of her own footsteps remained in Yun Mu's ears.

"Hm?"

Sensing something was wrong, Yun Mu looked back and discovered that other than herself, she couldn't see anyone else at all.

I don't know when it started, but Brenna, Lucy, and the Dwarves had all disappeared! It's a bit eerie... She didn't feel afraid, just couldn't help but get some goosebumps.

Damn it, if there are enemies, just come out already.

Who are you trying to scare by doing this!

Yun Mu thought to herself in disdain.

There was no other way, she could only search for her teammates in the mist.

However... "Finally coming out?"

Several stumbling figures surrounded her, and seeing this, Yun Mu became happy instead.

That's right, just like this! Having monsters appear directly is better than the environment just now.

【You have encountered enemies—【Stumbling Zombie lv60 (Master)】 【Strange-acting Skeleton lv60 (Master)】 【Chattering Ghost lv60 (Master)】 【Imp that cannot accept reality lv60 (Master)】】 【Stumbling Zombie lv60 (Master) Max HP: 100 Race: Undead·Demon

Attack 0, Spell Strength 0, Defense 0, Resilience 0, Dodge 0, Speed 0, Precision Correction 0, Critical Hit 0% Traits: None Skills: None】 【Strange-acting Skeleton lv60 (Master) 【Chattering Ghost lv60 (Master) 【Imp that cannot accept reality lv60 (Master) 【Battle Start!】

【Current Turn Number·1】

【Player Yun Mu acts first!】

"Hm?"

One hundred HP, but all other attributes are zero?

No traits, no skills, so how are they supposed to act?

Yun Mu subconsciously felt something was wrong, she first checked her own team... Sure enough, other than herself, there were no teammates by her side.

In that case 【Skip Turn!】

Let's see what these guys are up to first.

【Chattering Ghost begins to act!】

【Skip Turn!】

【Strange-acting Skeleton begins to act!】

【Skip Turn!】

【Stumbling Zombie begins to act!】

【Skip Turn!】

【Imp that cannot accept reality begins to act!】

【Skip Turn!】

【Current Turn Number·2】

【Player Yun Mu begins to act!】

Ah, this.

On the action panel, five consecutive "Skip Turn" message notifications left Yun Mu numb.

These guys really don't have any skills.

Then what should she do? If she wanted to, one skill could instantly kill these Undead with 0 Attack, 0 Defense, and 100 HP, but in the current situation, it was obvious these guys were just here to be fodder.

Yun Mu always felt that if she killed these guys instantly, it might lead to some terrible consequences.

But if she doesn't act... just waste time with this group of guys like this?

She couldn't leave unless the battle ended!

"Phew, let's try to see what happens if I don't fight."

Yun Mu continued to choose Skip Turn.

【The Chatterbox Wraith begins its action!】

【Skip Turn!】

【The Eccentric Skeleton begins its action!】

【Skip Turn!】

【The Tottering Zombie begins its action!】

【Skip Turn!】

【The Fact-Denying Imp begins its action!】

【Skip Turn!】

【Current Turn Count: 5】

With both sides skipping, the game's battle turns quickly reached the fifth round.

Just as Yun Mu was getting a bit tired of this, a miraculous thing happened!

She saw that at the third position on the opposite side, the monster that always acted first—the Chatterbox Wraith—had a change in its facial expression.

Although this change was very small, it might even have been an illusion.

But as a Transcendental, Yun Mu saw it, and she was very certain it was not her illusion!

"Skip Turn!"

Yun Mu skipped her current action turn again without hesitation.

The next second.

【The Chatterbox Wraith has fled the battle!】

【The Eccentric Skeleton begins its action!】

【Skip Turn!】

【The Tottering Zombie begins its action!】

【Skip Turn!】

【The Fact-Denying Imp begins its action!】

【Skip Turn!】

【Current Turn Count: 6】

【Player Yun Mu acts first.】

The game's battle turns reached the sixth round, and on the opposite side, the Chatterbox Wraith had already fled the battle! And perhaps because it saw its teammate run away, the Eccentric Skeleton's movements seemed to have become even more bizarre.

Yun Mu continued to skip turns, and sure enough, this time it was the Eccentric Skeleton's turn to run away! The game's battle turns had now reached the seventh round.

Keep skipping, skip again!

【The Tottering Zombie has fled the battle!】

【The Fact-Denying Imp has fled the battle!】

【Current Turn Count: 9】

The enemies in front had all disappeared, yet strangely, the battle did not seem to have ended. Yun Mu did not see the familiar results screen; instead, the battle prompts on the Game Panel continued to refresh.

【Skip Turn!】

The Skip Turn prompt automatically popped up above Yun Mu's head, followed by 【You have encountered an enemy—【Lost Heart (Lv65, Master)】】 【Current Turn Count: 10】

【【Lost Heart (Lv65, Master)】 gains a massive boost! (10 * 10%)】 Yun Mu: Huh?

【Lost Heart (Lv65, Master) Race: Wraith/Demon

Max HP: 700 (+100%)

Attack 160, Spell Strength 176, Defense 180, Dodge 220, Speed 76, Precision Correction 210, Crit 96% (+100%)

Traits: Lost Heart (After the battle starts, randomly deprive the enemy of one skill or trait every turn; when the target has no traits or skills left to be deprived, the Lost Heart will deprive them of their very existence), Silent (When the Lost Heart's attack crits, the crit target will be deprived of one skill or trait)

Demonization.

Skills: Wail, Bury Alive, Dig Grave, Dig Heart】 Are you kidding me, bro?

So after those four guys run away, a thing like you appears!

If she guessed correctly, this boost effect was 10% multiplied by the number of turns she spent defeating those four guys?

Damn it, why didn't you say so earlier! Looking at the crimson "+100%" number above the Lost Heart's head, Yun Mu gritted her teeth in anger, feeling cheated deep down.

Is this guy something one person can fight?

700 HP, Attack and Spell Strength as high as 170+, possessing 180 Defense and 220 Dodge, 76 Speed, 210 Precision, and a Crit rate as high as 96%!

This is the Lost Heart.

【Lost Heart activates trait: Lost Heart.】

【Your active skill: Mental Shock has been deprived by the Lost Heart!】

Yun Mu suddenly felt that the memories and experience related to Mental Shock were rapidly disappearing from her mind.

When she realized it and wanted to recall them, she found that she had completely forgotten how to use Mental Shock.

Hmph, it doesn't matter; she has plenty of traits and skills, this guy couldn't deprive them all in a lifetime.

It's just 700 HP, watch her finish it off in minutes all by herself! To be safe, Yun Mu decided to start with her ultimate move.

【Atlas Painting!】

【Rolling Boulder!】

A skill that cannot be dodged, and the higher the enemy's HP, the more powerful the damage.

It can deal Yun Mu's Spell Strength, plus additional damage equal to 35% of the enemy's maximum health!

35% of 700 health, that is. 【-563!】 (Critical Hit!) Arghhhhh! The Lost Heart's body wriggled, its decayed mouth wide open, yet it could not emit a single sound.

A massive stone ball fell from the Painted World, and the Lost Heart could only catch it with its back.

As the bright red critical hit number popped up above its head.

The Lost Heart's health bar instantly dropped to only 137 points! It is worthy of being an Orange active skill. Of course, this is mainly due to the Lost Heart having too much health, allowing the Rolling Boulder skill to perform better.

It is a pity that the Lost Heart also has the Demonization trait, and Yun Mu's painting skills can only be used once per battle. Otherwise, I fear two stone balls would have smashed the opponent to death.

【The Lost Heart begins its turn!】

"Awoooooo—"

The Lost Heart's body floated into mid-air, and following a surge of intense spiritual power fluctuations, the Lost Heart's wail echoed in Yun Mu's mind.

So this guy wasn't unable to make a sound.

【Wail!】

【-256!】 (Critical Hit!) 【Your trait · Death Resistance has been Deprivation!】

【Pressure +15!】

【Current turn number · 11】

【Your passive skill · Mecha Piloting has been Deprivation!】

【Player Yun Mu moves first!】

【Yun Mu's current health: 104/380】

"Hiss, what kind of B-tier damage is that?"

Yun Mu raised an eyebrow, suddenly realizing things were not simple.

She looked at a certain piece of equipment hanging from her waist.

【Shambler Sculpture】

【Passive skill · From the Abyss】

【After the equipment wearer's health reaches zero, the Shambler Sculpture will devour their flesh and blood and summon a true Shambler.】

It's over!

It's all over!

If she is attacked one more time, her health will hit zero, and she will be taken away by the Shambler Sculpture! The problem is, she has no way to take the opponent out this turn.

Because the Demonization trait restores half of the opponent's health when their health reaches zero!

This means she must hit it one more time! Yun Mu hurriedly clicked on the Civilization Path attributes.

【Civilization lv4: Max health +80, Resilience +6, when receiving fatal damage, will not enter the death state, and health will be restored to half of the maximum.】【When fighting a race that has been fought before, damage +35%, damage received -20%.】 The problem is, the effect of Civilization Path triggers "after receiving fatal damage," while the effect of the Shambler Sculpture is "health reaches zero."

Judging from the literal meaning, the first to trigger will definitely be the Shambler Sculpture, but the triggering of the Shambler Sculpture means Yun Mu will die.

Yun Mu dying means the effect of Civilization Path might be able to activate.

Why say "might"?

Nonsense, she has never tested it, so how could she know! Did you think she was about to fall into a desperate situation? Actually, she was not.

Yun Mu smiled confidently.

【Construct into Reality!】

She held her staff, using the tip as a brush to paint a picture in front of herself.

The next second, holy light filled the sky, enveloping the Lost Heart's body.

Ahhhhh—

The Lost Heart wailed silently, its body constantly being scorched by the holy light.

【-208!】

【+21】 (From Lifesteal)

【Demonization!】

【+350!】

A light green healing number popped up above the Lost Heart's head, and then.

【The Lost Heart begins its turn!】

【Bury Alive!】

The Lost Heart spread its arms, and many bone hands suddenly emerged from beneath Yun Mu's feet, tearing together to drag her body into the ground.

【-361!】 (Critical Hit!) 【Your trait · Disease Immunity has been Deprivation!】

【Your equipment 【Mountainous Mountain Range】's passive skill 【Mountain Range】 triggered! The Lost Heart's damage was reduced to 72 points!】【Yun Mu's current health is: 53/380】

【Current turn number · 12】

【Your active skill · Claw Swipe has been Deprivation!】

【Player Yun Mu begins her turn!】

"Hehehe," seeing the game panel's message notification, Yun Mu smiled triumphantly.

"Lost Heart, I probably won't forget you for the rest of my life."

"Although you are indeed strong, I am stronger than you!"

This is the skill effect of the 【Mountainous Mountain Range】 equipment that was just upgraded.

When Yun Mu's health is above 10%, receiving damage that would reduce her health to zero will reduce the attack damage by 80% while simultaneously forcing her health to lock at 1 point or above! Lasts for one turn.

"This is my equation for victory!"

Yun Mu swung the Frost Cold Blade Tooth, and in the next second, an unrivaled ice blade swept forward.

【Frost Blade Ice Tooth!】
