Chapter 328: Death Castle (Part 2)

Duyan Chuanzhang: "Damn it! Why don't we also enter the castle to help them kill the World Boss? Otherwise, I suspect we'll be worn to death!"

North Wind Spirit: "Better to hold on a bit longer; after all, the Prophet's prophecy is still quite accurate."

Southern Fist King: "But I still feel a bit unconvinced. Can we who don't have the ability to break through to 30 points really not help at all?"

Gege de Xiao Siji: "No, according to my brother's Divination, as long as the boss successfully consumes a player's blood, its strength will increase by 1%, so please do not feed the boss."

Fire-Cannon Gunner: "Fuck, is this boss that fierce? Does it have no weaknesses?"

Huahua: "Then shouldn't we just be a bit more careful? At worst, we'll just stay in a safe position to defend."

Gege de Xiao Siji: "There are many mechanisms inside this castle; only players whose total attributes have been raised to 30 points won't be killed instantly."

Loves Eating Sugar's Little Orange: "Then what should we do? With wolves in front and tigers behind, I don't want to be trapped to death here!"

Yangguang Xujie: "Everyone, a new batch of attribute-increasing items has been listed. Those closer to 30 points can claim them for free."

Northern Peerless Gun King: "Great, I was just worrying about having no way to increase my attribute points. Quickly reserve a Body-Strengthening Fruit for me; my physique is only 5 points away!"

………………

Information kept scrolling across the World Channel; players who went to kill the World Boss inside the castle were still blocked at the stair entrance by a large group of monsters.

A player holding a Skull Staff complained: "Damn it, just how many of these monsters are there! By the way, the people outside should be able to try coming in to occupy this hall. Should I go call them in?"

At this moment, Ma Linlin said: "No, I have already sensed it. There are many mechanisms and traps here, as well as many mysterious pipes. If they just come in like this, it will likely be feeding the boss!"

"Then what should we do? We can't just be trapped to death here!"

"We have to think of a way to break the deadlock!"

…………………

Just as everyone was distressed, Zhu Zhiquan activated Hell Lament, causing the monsters coming down the stairs to feel a wave of dizziness, and their charging movements stopped abruptly.

Then, Zhu Zhiquan took the lead, raised the Jingtian Pozhen Gun, and was the first to enter the staircase, quickly killing the surrounding monsters and clearing an area free of monsters directly within the stairs.

"Damn it, kid, are you crazy! Aren't you afraid I'll accidentally kill you with one slip!" said a player holding a firearm.

Chen Ligang, on the side, saw the breakthrough point and immediately jumped onto the stairs, continuously pushing the front line toward the upper floor together with Zhu Zhiquan.

Others also reacted one after another and pushed the front line forward together.

But just as they were pushing toward the upper floor, a group of monsters with bodies made of solid stone and bushes growing on their backs smashed through the ceiling and landed heavily on the ground.

Its height was about five meters, and on its bush there was also a small-sized treant holding a wooden spear, who, like a knight, directed it into the stairwell.

The crowd frowned and immediately split two people to the rear to be responsible for blocking this Treant Knight.

At this moment, the Treant Knight threw the wooden spear in its hand at them; that seemingly ordinary wooden spear easily pierced through a player covered in iron armor.

The intense pain made this player unable to help but wail, and the priest in the team immediately pulled them to the center to perform Yùhé.

Other melee players also tried to block these knights one after another, but the monsters under the Treant Knights were too strong; just their charging alone was more than the players could handle.

However, the good news was that because of their large size, only one could enter at a time, and on top of that, the speed of these things was slow as death.

Even if one's retreat was cut off by such behemoths, it wasn't that scary; as long as the players' pushing speed was fast enough, they could easily shake off this group of guys.

Thus, the mages in the team released control skills on the knights in the back, and the rest of the people poured all their firepower onto the monsters at the top of the stairs.

But when they were attacked by the Treant Knights, the monsters coming down from the stairs had already regained their senses and launched a charge at them once again, causing the progress to become extremely difficult.

Chen Ligang urged Zhu Zhiquan at this time: "Brother, what is that move of yours called? Can you release it again?"

Zhu Zhiquan could only shake his head helplessly, while the Jingtian Pozhen Gun in his hand also danced continuously; streaks of Thunder Dragon appeared from the staff from time to time, devouring the monsters approaching nearby.

"Are you out of Magic Power? It doesn't matter." At this time, the priest in the middle of the team had just finished healing the heavily injured player and immediately covered everyone with a layer of Buff, and then a status called Void Spirit Seizure appeared on everyone's panel.

Void Spirit Seizure: Within five minutes, you can recover your own Magic Power by absorbing the opponent's blood.

After providing the buff to everyone, the priest began to remind everyone to absorb the monsters' blood to recover their own Magic Power.

After hearing the priest's words, the fervor in Zhu Zhiquan's eyes became even more intense; he immediately ignored a monster's attack and pounced on its body, biting wantonly.

At this moment, four or five claws pierced into his body in succession, but it still couldn't stop him from feasting; at the same time, under the professional effect of the Fierce Battle Ghost, the wounds on his body healed rapidly as he ate.

The Magic Power in his body that was originally about to dry up rose a bit more; Zhu Zhiquan opened the panel and saw that his Magic Power had recovered to 4 points.

Immediately, Zhu Zhiquan activated Hell Lament again, causing a large group of monsters to suffer from dizziness, and the crowd was able to clear the monsters at the top of the stairs in an instant.

At this, the entire squad was overjoyed and hurried up several steps.

But the Treant Knights in the rear were not willing to let them leave just like that and immediately threw wooden spears at the squad, wanting to exert pressure from the rear.

"Wind Demon Bullet." A player holding a sniper rifle fired a Magic Power bullet, which then formed a spiral wind bullet along the way, occupying the stairs behind.

The wooden spears thrown by those Treant Knights were all carried back by this wind bullet; only hearing a 'Bang!', the monster under a Treant Knight was hit by the wind bullet, and those carried wooden spears were also firmly stuck into its body.

"Awoo~" The monster hit by the wind bullet wailed and collapsed with a crash, causing the Treant Knight riding on it to also fall off the stairs.

And because the Treant Knights behind had their mounts die in front, plus their size was too bulky, they were completely unable to pursue the player squad.

Just when the squad members all thought they could pass through the stairs smoothly, suddenly a sound of machinery starting came, followed by the sound of a chainsaw in the stairwell ahead.

Zhu Zhiquan grabbed a leopard parasitized by a Vine, and at the same time opened the Nightmare Demon Eye to look in the direction of the sound.

Only to see a circular saw as tall as a person rushing down from the top of the stairs; the sharp circular saw cut the monsters along the way in half.

Seeing that the circular saw was getting closer and closer, Zhu Zhiquan relied on the blessing of Void Spirit Seizure to quickly recover Magic Power, then pulled out the Five-Star Sword at his waist and injected Magic Power into it.

Just when the circular saw was half a meter away from him, Zhu Zhiquan had already finished injecting the Magic Power and swung a sword Qi toward the circular saw.
