MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks

Mimiron had extremely high ATK, so one thrust of its spear meant that despite being armed with an Orange Quality Shield in hand, Alleria still took over 200,000 in damage.

Alleria had only 1 million HP, so five strokes from Mimiron would be enough to take her down.

Li Yi stood in the distance, first using Meteor Arrow to take 30 million HP from Mimiron, followed by a combo of other arrow skills.

The higher the combo numbers, the more additional damage they dealt.

After Mimiron swung his spear at Alleria for the third strike, Li Yi ordered Alleria to pull back. At the same time, he intensified his attacks, using three consecutive Overlord Arrows and successfully pulling Mimiron’s aggro.

“Intruders, taste the rage of giants!”

Mimiron roared as it charged at Li Yi.

Li Yi activated his Rocket Propellant and darted behind an obstacle, dodging Mimiron’s Charge with ease.

When a character was in the middle of a Charge, knocking into any item would immediately interrupt and cancel the move, so the best way to avoid a Charge would be to hide behind an object.

Mimiron used Charge three times in a row, and Li Yi avoided him each time without even breaking a sweat. By then, Alleria had already healed herself completely with her Healing Spells. Without even waiting for Li Yi’s orders, she rushed forth to assist him.

Li Yi used Mislead on Alleria and shot a few arrows at Mimiron, successfully transferring its aggro to Alleria.

Beating the Strength and Glory Dungeon did not require a high level of technique, because it was quite easy to defeat each of the bosses inside. As long as the players had the power to defeat these bosses before they went berserk, it was a downright cinch.

Twenty minutes later, Mimiron fell to Li Yi’s arrows.

The Great Knight collapsed, and its corpse glowed slightly. Something occurred to Li Yi, and he quickly ran forth and touched it to loot it. “Ding!”

[You have obtained a Blue Kodo.]

It dropped a mount!

Li Yi looked at the Blue Kodo Mount Emblem, shocked but overjoyed.

The Ancient King Quest Dungeons had a very unique feature, in that other than the gatekeeper boss, no monsterlings or mini boss ever dropped trash items. They either dropped legendary items or nothing at all.

Mimiron’s mount, the Blue Kodo, was a possible drop, but the chances were low.

[Blue Kodo (Epic-level Battle Mount)]

[On-ground SPD: 120%]

[Additional Special Skill:

[Endure (passive): Increases DEF by 18,000]

…

The mount had very basic attributes, but its additional special skill was especially useful.

18,000 DEF was not much use to Li Yi. After all, he was no main tank, so an increase in DEF did not matter to him. Only main tanks would treasure this mount.

The Blue Kodo Mount was locked upon attainment, so the only one Li Yi could trade it to right now was Sister Cat, who had come into this dungeon with him.

However, Sister Cat’s class had even less use of it than Li Yi had.

Li Yi showed Alleria the Kodo Mount Emblem and asked, “Babe, can you use this?”

“Ding!”

[You have successfully given away the Blue Kodo Mount!]

A golden light surrounded Alleria’s body, and the Kodo Mount Emblem disappeared from Li Yi’s palm.

System Notification: [Alleria’s Affinity towards you increased by 20000 points!]

[Alleria has shown you goodwill, so her hiring fee has been reduced by half!]

The two messages sent Li Yi over the moon.

He had given away a useless mount, and in return, he increased Alleria’s abilities and her Affinity as well, thereby reducing her fee. He had essentially killed two birds with one stone; it was a win-win situation.

Alleria summoned the Blue Kodo Mount and stood in front of Li Yi. It was as though she was riding a mountain.

The Blue Kodo was simply too huge.

Li Yi leaped lightly and landed on top of the Blue Kodo, ordering Alleria to advance.

The Strength and Glory Instance Dungeon had seven mini bosses, five of them compulsory. The rest were optional.

If he defeated all seven mini bosses, even if they did not drop anything special, he would still receive some bonus EXP upon completing the dungeon.

However, Li Yi was not here for the EXP. He just wanted the One-eyed Giant Gaea’s fealty.

From morning to night, Li Yi used more than twenty whole hours to take down the five mini bosses. Finally, he stood before the One-eyed Giant Gaea.

The One-eyed Giant Gaea was more than fifty meters tall. The slightest twitch of its feet set the ground off, vibrating.

As Li Yi was preparing to solo the giant, The Cat that Sings ran over to him from the distance, panting heavily.

“F*ck, you really are something else. I just took a little nap, and you’ve already reached the gatekeeper boss.”

The Cat that Sings was not wearing her mask, so her pretty features contrasted drastically with her foul language.

Li Yi could not help but sigh. Their Almighty Creator really was fair…

The Cat that Sings pointed at the One-eyed Giant. “Why do we do to that big d*ck?”

“Pull it with the main tank and then two of us will deal damage. Get ready to jump as soon as you see it lift its leg to avoid its Earthquake, and that should do.”

“Anything else?”

“Nope.”

“Seems simple.”

Li Yi nodded. “Alleria, go!”

Alleria rode the Kodo and charged in. Li Yi cast Mislead on her and pelted Gaea with two arrows.

The One-eyed Giant Gaea chased Alleria clumsily, stretching out its arms and grabbing her as though it was playing catch. After that, it immediately wound up and tossed her up as though she were a shot put ball.

Alleria was tossed into the sky and became a meteor, vanishing in an instant…

The Cat that Sings was surprised. “What did that d*ck just do? Where’d your blow-up doll go?”

Just then, the One-eyed Giant Gaea lifted its foot and tried to trample Li Yi and The Cat that Sings.

“Duck!”

Li Yi activated the Rocket Propellant and rushed forth.

The Cat that Sings was a little slower. She had just activated Cyclone Step when the One-eyed Giant’s foot landed, stomping her right into the ground.

By the time the One-eyed Giant took its foot away, The Cat that Sings had already become a pancake. The funniest part was her face, where her pretty pink had been stomped out of shape. It was even sticking out, making for quite the hilarious sight.

It was an instant kill with one stomp!

“The f*ck?! That d*ck’s super strong, it f*cked me senseless in a second…” The Cat that Sings was still swearing as she lay on the ground.

Li Yi released his Territory and enveloped the One-eyed Giant in it. Although his Territory was almost at Rank 2 now, it still had no effect whatsoever on the One-eyed Giant’s speed. The most it could do was allow him to teleport within its range.

Alleria had yet to land from her fall. The One-eyed Giant may look clumsy and lumbering, but it was extremely large, and each of its strides took it further than a player could move in a hundred steps. At first, Li Yi could still outrun it with his Teleportation, but soon he had used up all of his teleportation chances and his Territory began to fall apart. The One-eyed Giant swatted him with a hand, instantly turning him into yet another pancake.

They had been wiped out…

“Corpse run…”

“F*ck, didn’t you say this thing’s simple?” The Cat that Sings released her soul immediately after Li Yi did.

The two of them used over a dozen minutes before they ran back to where they started.

Li Yi summoned Alleria again and looked at the One-eyed Giant, trying to remember how to defeat it.

“You sure you can do this? If you can’t, just call for backup. Gah, what a f*cking pain.”

“Shut up!”

Li Yi was already feeling frustrated, so the Foul-mouthed Cat’s swearing instantly ticked him off.

The Cat that Sings toyed with her dagger and glared at Li Yi. “F*ck, what’s with that tone? Who’re you talking to?”

Li Yi released his Territory and enveloped The Cat that Sings in it.

“F*ck, why can’t I move anymore? You… what the f*ck are you trying to do? F*ck… F*ck…”

Li Yi walked up to The Cat that Sings and took a dagger from her hand, stuffing it hilt-first into her mouth.

The dagger’s hotels hilt was very thick, and The Cat that Sings did not have a very large mouth. That was why the hilt stuffed her well, and suddenly the Foul-mouthed Cat could not swear anymore. All she could do was mumble.

Mmrgh mmgh mmgh… Mmrgh you…”

Now that he had some peace and quiet, Li Yi slowly went through his memories. In the past life, he was only familiar with the Night Emperor Instance Dungeon. He had not spent a lot of time on the others, and had mostly only read the walkthroughs on the forums.

There were too many dungeons in King of Pantheon, and he had long since forgotten exactly how to beat One-eyed Giant Gaea.

If he remembered correctly, this boss should be the “all brawn and no brain” type, and defeating it should not require any techniques. All he should need was a powerful main tank to take it head-on and then enough DPS to take it down.

So what was up with Alleria being tossed like a ragdoll?

“Ding!”

“You better f*cking let me go right now, or else I’ll really lose it!”

The Foul-mouthed Cat could not speak, so she typed messages at Li Yi instead.

Li Yi simply turned off the screen, infuriating the Foul-mouthed Cat into glaring at him viciously.

The Cat that Sings’ Territory Level was not even at Level 5, so she could not even twitch under the influence of Li Yi’s Territory, which was almost at Rank 2.

“Mmrgh mmgh mrgh…”

Soon enough, Sister Cat’s little mouth began to drip with glistening saliva…

Li Yi ignored her, frowning as he dug through his memories.

After a while, Li Yi summoned the Violent Bear King and cast Mislead on it, unleashing another arrow at the One-eyed Giant.

The One-eyed Giant roared and ran to it, grabbing the Violent Bear King with both hands and tossing it into the air just as he had done with Alleria.

He guessed right, they did need to sacrifice a main tank!

“Alleria, go!”

This time, Li Yi ordered Alleria to go forth and pull the One-eyed Giant’s aggro.

The White Elf Vagabond charged, riding her Kodo. With two uses of Shield Bash, she got a firm hold of the One-eyed Giant’s aggro.

It worked!

Li Yi was overjoyed. He then drew the Orange Quality Bow and shot at it relentlessly.

“Mmrgh mmgh mrgh…”

The Cat that Sings whined loudly, but Li Yi’s Territory was still in effect, so she was still immobilized.

Li Yi approached Sister Cat and began to negotiate with her. “Let me just get this straight. I’ll let go of you, but you are not to swear. If you swear, I’ll just do the same thing to you again.

“If you agree with these terms, nod. If you don’t, shake your head.”

The Cat that Sings nodded furiously. “Mmrgh mmgh mrgh…”

“There you go, good girl!”

Li Yi undid the Territory over Sister Cat and let her go.

“How dare you f*ck with me! I’ll f*ck your brains out!”

The Cat that Sings pulled the dagger out of her mouth and pounced at Li Yi wildly…

“Territory Release!”

When The Cat that Sings was right in front of Li Yi, the Territory spread out again and she was stuck motionless once more.

“Motherf*cking b*stard…” The Cat that Sings spat out another long line of expletives, wearing away the last of Li Yi’s patience.

“Looks like the dagger can’t keep you quiet. Alright then, this time I’ll stuff your mouth with something else instead!”

Li Yi began to take off his trousers.
