The first level, and we’ve already encountered a Tier One full-level elite monster? With 2000 life points and 50 physique, no one except Lundestadte can take him on one-on-one. Lin Rui had an ominous feeling about the upcoming purge; it was definitely not going to be easy.
But the Great Lord Lin was never one to uphold the sanctity of a fair duel. With a wave of his hand, he said, "Lundestadte, send him flying. Everyone, attack with full power."
This was the first time Lundestadte had used a skill since entering the palace.
Golden light filled the palace corridor, and the Demon Mutator was directly sent flying into the air, stunned for a second, hovering for two seconds.
All the fanatics leaped up, their steel staffs hammering from every direction at the demon’s enormous body, its flesh falling like a blood rain across the space.
The Hot War Zombie Girl leaped up, the light from her blade dancing nimbly through the air, and the Fur Ball latched onto the demon’s body, leaving scratch marks all over.
A black bone arrow over three meters long shot out from the rear, piercing completely through the demon’s body. A Skeleton Warrior carrying a sword and shield climbed out from its massive frame.
[Ding, your subordinate Audrey, the Black Queen Apostle, has slain an elite-level monster—Terror Demon Egg. As the Lord, you receive 10% experience. Experience +600]
Experience +600, quite a substantial number. Killing monsters in this palace even boosts experience gains.
In the back, two Woodland Fairies covered their mouths in shock. A powerful elite-level troop couldn’t even manage to use a skill in resistance?
The muscle-bound warriors of the territory are quite brutal, aren’t they?
So, who’s the real demon here?
Looking at the elite-level Mutator smashed into pieces, the two little girls fell simultaneously into deep thought.
Audrey, however, was very happy because it was her summoned creature that got the final blow.
Killing small creatures is what these muscle men can show off, but when it comes to slaying elite monsters, it’s up to her, Audrey, the territory’s most powerful caster. Note: second to only one.
The undead army soon finished clearing the battlefield. This elite monster was quite generous, dropping two green enhanced-level accessories and, crucially, a fine-level bracelet.
[Soul-Calming True Spirit Bracelet]
[Quality: Fine-level (Blue)]
[Spiritual Recovery Speed +30/hour]
[Trait: Casting spirit magic will additionally enhance overall damage based on soul value, each soul value increasing by 0.5%]
The two green enhanced-level accessories both increased physique, which Lin Rui directly distributed to Lundestadte and Sean, both worthy of this reward—one for tanking, the other as the main damage dealer.
The fine-level bracelet was a rare treasure, especially for enhancing skills’ overall damage per soul value, making it very suitable for Audrey.
But unfortunately, she’s notoriously lazy, relying on her subordinates for killing mobs, and doesn’t even use a damage element skill.
Lin Rui could only hope that the +2 intelligence attribute would improve her sloppy trait, and slowly collect skill books for her.
After clearing the first level, the army gradually entered the second level of the palace.
As soon as Lundestadte appeared, he was swarmed by Chaos Demons, his health plummeting.
"Lord, the second level contains a large number of Tier One full-level Excellence level monsters."
"Release Invincible Slash, oh, Radiant Slash."
A dazzling golden light erupted from the second level below, and even standing on the first level, Lin Rui could see the endless golden light illuminating the entire palace from the direction of the stairs.
When Lin Rui walked down the stairs, demon fragments littered the floor, and Lundestadte stood like a golden sun, bathed in a rain of blood.
Limbs and torn flesh were everywhere, countless demons fell in a rain of blood.
Audrey covered her mouth in surprise, this Rare Level Dog Knight was absurdly strong, severely threatening her position in the territory.
Lin Rui also glanced at the monster horde, beyond the bone-spurred Bloodsuckers, many tall, no less than two meters, robust warriors clad in blood-red plate armor had appeared among the crowd.
Each brandished a blood-colored hand axe and held a half-human-high square shield.
Tier One Excellence Level troop, Terror Cult fanatics!
Each was comparable to a Sun Flame Knight; more terrifying was that all were Tier One full level.
Unlike the sturdy Sun Flame Knights, these plate armor knights were both sturdy and offensively potent. Their traits were added to their attack, making their assaults exceptionally powerful, with their only consolation being a lack of high life values.
But a Tier One full level 50 physique still granted them 750 life value. This life value was not much lower than Lusen, Duncan, and others.
If they landed a strike with their axe, even a knight with a Knight’s Shield would lose a lot of blood.
"All knights to the front, withstand the damage. Fanatics, follow my command, start clearing the Terror Cult fanatics from the nine o’clock direction clockwise. The undead army moves forward to block the Bloodsuckers."
The watching undead zombies also finally joined the battle. Though undead zombies could not defeat Bloodsuckers, their thick skin and muscle allowed them to stall the Bloodsuckers for a while.
The battlefield was filled with the clash of blades and swords, Snow White’s long blade whirled up and down, slicing through Bloodsucker after Bloodsucker, the crimson blood staining her white tight top, her short skirt, and black stockings plastered with scraps.
Audrey finally got serious, raising one undead warrior after another from the ground.
Under Lin Rui’s guidance, Makabaka’s bone arrows successfully claimed a slew of heads. Paired with Audrey’s Soul Summoning Skill, the undead warriors’ numbers quickly soared.
