Chapter 288: Since you won

On the other side.

The ruins where Lin Mo was.

The surroundings remained desolate.

Only the sound of wind and sand brushing against rocks.

Lin Mo sat idly on the ground, chin propped on his hands.

Beside him.

Da Bai lay obediently.

"Still not coming?"

Lin Mo frowned slightly.

"Damn it."

"I've said it all this far—do these people really all have the patience of turtles?"

In the skill bar.

【"Fireball Spell" snorted, looking smug.】

【"From my perspective, they're surely terrified by that earth-shattering strike I just unleashed."】

【"Boring. So boring!"】

【"Ice Spike Spell" also snorted.】

【"Lacking even the courage to face their master—pathetic trash!"】

Listening to the skills' complaints.

Lin Mo was somewhat exasperated.

He'd originally thought he could sit here comfortably and wait for them to deliver his exclusive weapon.

Now it seemed it wouldn't be that easy…

Just then.

He noticed a small red dot appear on the mini-map on his panel.

"Huh?"

"A new boss spawned?"

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.

"Whatever."

"Since you all won't come."

"I'll go kill a boss to pass the time."

Thinking this,

Lin Mo stood up and patted Da Bai's neck.

"Let's go, Xiao Lei."

"Stretch your legs."

Da Bai rose, shaking its fur.

Lightning flickered.

Lin Mo mounted Da Bai with ease.

"Depart."

…

Moments later.

Lin Mo arrived at the location of this boss.

The place resembled an ancient battlefield ruin.

Broken flags and scattered weapons lay everywhere.

At the center of the ruin.

Stood an enormous monstrous entity.

【Soul General (Boss), LV. 0】

Lin Mo looked up.

The Soul General stood over ten meters tall.

Its body was clad in heavy armor, scarred with countless sword and axe marks.

Beneath its helmet were hollow eye sockets.

In its hand it held a greatsword as tall as itself.

Even standing still, it radiated a grim, martial aura of war and steel.

"Aggro it, Xiao Lei."

Lin Mo patted Da Bai and gave a casual command.

"Roar—!!!"

The Soul General yanked its greatsword from the ground and let out a deafening, earth-shaking roar.

With its roar,

the ground of the ruin began to violently tremble.

Soil churned.

Countless pale white bony hands emerged from beneath the earth.

Immediately after,

hundreds upon thousands of undead soldiers, wielding broken weapons, surged forth like a tidal wave.

Dense and countless.

"It brings minions?"

"No wonder it's called a General."

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.

Then he told Xiao Lei:

"Xiao Lei, take care of them."

The next second,

Da Bai's eyes erupted in brilliant lightning.

Boom—!!!

The already dark clouds above instantly transformed into an ocean of thunderstorm.

Thousands of lightning bolts gathered wildly within the clouds.

Swish-swish-swish-swish—!!!

Countless lightning swords rained down like a deluge, piercing through the entire undead army.

Each lightning sword struck the ground and triggered chain explosions.

Wild Thunder power ravaged the undead army.

The undead soldiers who had just crawled from the earth turned to dust the moment they touched the lightning.

Meanwhile,

a spectral image of the Thunder God coalesced in midair.

In its hand, a spear of lightning gathered.

Boom—!!!

The spear shot forth, piercing straight through the Soul General's body.

A single thrust shattered its entire upper half.

With the combined power of two high-tier skills,

the battlefield was cleared in an instant.

"Bah, weak. Too weak."

"Can't even compare to a raid boss."

Lin Mo sighed.

Just then,

a golden light enveloped Lin Mo.

【Congratulations! You have slain the LV. 0 Soul General!】

【Level increased to LV. 0!】

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.

"Level 40?"

Let's be honest, the upgrade speed of this Wanguo Battlefield is really fast.

After all, there are boss-level monsters everywhere.

Plus, I'm soloing and getting all the experience to myself.

And when I entered, I was already halfway to level 39.

I casually wiped out two bosses and immediately leveled up to 40.

Lin Mo glanced at his character panel.

"Level 40, you can learn a new element now."

"I had planned to take Wind..."

Lin Mo clicked his tongue.

"What a shame."

"I forgot to bring the skill book for Wind Blade."

"Forget it, I'll learn it after I get out."

Lin Mo pulled his thoughts back.

He reached out and patted Bai's fluffy neck.

"Not bad, Xiao Lei."

"Clean and efficient—exactly my style."

"I'll give you an extra chicken leg tonight."

Hearing his master's praise,

Bai's massive body shuddered slightly, he lifted his head proudly, tail swaying in midair.

【"Cough…"】

【"Thunder Strike" stood calmly in the skill bar.】

【"I merely seek efficiency—I have no time to waste."】

【"As for the chicken leg… I demand it be thunder-attribute thigh meat!"】

Lin Mo smiled.

"Alright, alright, no problem."

Then,

Lin Mo glanced at where the Undead General had died—no golden glow of a unique weapon dropped.

What a shame.

Aside from the guaranteed first-kill drop, this boss's drop rate for a unique weapon was truly heartbreaking.

Lin Mo shook his head.

Then he opened his panel, checking if the Ying Kingdom brats had replied.

At that moment,

A kill notification popped up in the Tianzhu Kingdom's info bar.

【Congratulations to the Tianzhu Kingdom zone: they have successfully slain LV. 0 Bloodthirsty Werewolf Commander (BOSS), coordinates: X: 1588, Y: 9422】

Looking at the notification,

Lin Mo thought for a moment, then curled his lips.

"Fine, you lot would rather grind a boss than reply to me?"

"Big heads, aren't you?"

Then,

Lin Mo resettled himself and patted Bai's back.

"Xiao Lei."

"Since they won't come find us,"

"Then we'll go find them!"
