Chapter 325: White Tiger Shaman!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The dark flamed Level 52 Boss Skelewing Dragon had wings, and specialized in long-ranged Magic Attacks! Warrior Classes did not even have a chance of getting close to it. This was because when attacking, the Boss kept itself airborne so warriors could not even touch it from the ground—due to this very reason, Skelewing Dragons were the most problematic obstacle for Qin Ruo ever since he joined Honor and Glory!

When Qin Ruo saw this monster from afar, the first thing that came to mind was to turn around and leave the damn place, change his battle plan, and look for other warp portals to enter the fifth floor of the Graveyard of the Gods.

However, Violet Orchid and Judge told him at the same time that this was not possible…

The warp portals nearby the Tomb Region were all quite a distance from each other, it would take about half an hour just to reach the next one!

Not only that, the Bosses guarding the Tomb Region’s warp portals; Skelewing Dragon, Two-headed Skeletal Dragon, and Dark Lich, all three had the ability to fly! The scariest of them all was the Dark Lich—it had the ability to summon Tier 4 Boss entities… As for the Two-headed Skeletal Dragon, it was slightly weaker, but Qin Ruo would surely not be willing to go up against it.

From his experience with a Cerberus, the advantage of having three heads in a battle was clear to him, he swore never to even go near these damn creatures with more than one head. Additionally, the Two-headed Skeletal Dragon’s battle power was of a Tier 5 Boss level!

Qin Ruo could sense that the Skelewing Dragon was everyone else’s choice, he finally accepted his fate begrudgingly: Passing through the Barren Domain to the Tomb Region would surely have its gains and losses.

Even though they managed to save Violet Orchid, their successful and somewhat unpredictable progress into the fifth floor of the Graveyard of the Gods also indicated the sharp rise in level of difficulty…

With the three warrior Class players, Steel Dude, Subjugator and Judge, being unable to take part in the battle, Qin Ruo and Black Rock evidently had skills that were not up to par, even with the Amethyst Orc it was going to be difficult for them to display strong battle powers.

In short, this battle was going to be an interesting one!

***

Around the Skelewing Dragon were a group of Tier 5 level Skeletal Dragons.

They were regular monsters that were often found in the Tomb Region but among all the Undead monsters, they were considered unusually strong. Aside from having close-ranged attack abilities, their successive attacks were powerful and dealt high physical damage.

It was considered unlucky for regular Tier 4 players to encounter even one Skeletal Dragon. To encounter a group of them could be described as a tragic scene waiting to unfold.

A group of Skeletal Dragons in addition to a Level 52 Skelewing Dragon Boss—they were practically invincible. Even for Supreme Champion players this would be considered an incredible feat to attempt.

After assessing the situation, Subjugator’s eyes swept over the group of regular elites in the party and looked at Violet Orchid who was the team leader of the party, he then suggested, “What if we sacrifice a few people to draw the Skeletal Dragons and the Boss away? Even if they were to make it to the fifth floor, they would not be of any use anyway…”

“…”

Subjugator’s suggestion was ruthless, but that was the fact of the matter. With the Amethyst Orc unable to fully utilize its powers, there was no way to defeat the Tier 5 Skelewing Dragon Boss; Besides, even if the regular elites were to enter the fifth floor, they truly would not be of any use at all—Violet Orchid understood this point even more so than Subjugator.

However, her fellow comrades in the party had been by her side for a long period of time, even when Tiger Cub encircled and trapped them for more than two hours they never left her side. What they went through together made her unwilling to make such a request—they barely made it through that battle, yet having to sacrifice them even before they stepped foot onto the fifth floor was something that made her heavy-hearted… She just could not do it.

On the other hand, Violet Orchid knew better than anyone else that Subjugator’s decision was the most viable one…

It was the first time ever that Violet Orchid was torn about what to do, silently she stood in front of the party, looking in the direction of the warp portal and the big group of Skeletal Dragons and Skelewing Dragon surrounding it, as she waged a war within herself.

When she logged off to seek for help, Violet Orchid found out that the fifth floor of the Graveyard of the Gods was in dire need of a Radiant Priest to escape from a desperate situation. With that in mind, she had to quickly enter the fifth floor and convene with Scarlet Bauhinia and her group to reduce the fatality of the Angel Faction’s fifteen clans;

On the other hand, she really did not want to send her loyal comrades-in-arm to be sacrificial lambs in order to do that…

As she was deep in hesitation, Qin Ruo quipped from beside her:

“Is there a problem with Subjugator’s suggestion?”

Violet Orchid heaved a sigh and lightly shook her head.

“He is right, but…”

“I know, you do not want the others to sacrifice themselves for this.”

Qin Ruo glanced at the dozens of Angel Faction players standing behind Violet Orchid and sighed to himself. ‘If it were other monsters, the Bauhinia Clan members will surely not think twice and go into battle so that they can smoothly progress onto the fifth floor.’

As luck was not on their side, their opponent was none other than the highly intelligent Tier 5 Boss and a group of agile Wind-type monsters Skeletal Dragon. If they were to send out only a small number of people, they would be slain immediately. In order to draw the attention of the skeletal dragons and maybe even slow down the Boss, they needed at least twenty people to complete the mission.

Even Qin Ruo could not bear losing and sacrificing all the regular members—Sometimes the correct choice was not always the right one…

After much thought, Qin Ruo let out a sigh and reached into his bag looking for something to give to Violet Orchid.

“This!”

Only with the item in her hand, Violet Orchid felt surprised as she stared at the rather ridiculous Mana Core. Her heart skipped a beat as she lifted her head at looked at Qin Ruo, unwittingly her speech became quite pressing, “How many pieces do you have in total?”

Qin Ruo smiled and lifted three fingers. “One piece costs two thousand points. At first I thought that it was quite expensive, now that I see it, it does not seem too bad. I should have exchanged even more then.”

“No way, this belongs to you. With this, you can go to the fifth floor and venture out on your own… who knows maybe you can even get a Divinity… Keep it for yourself.”

Violet Orchid replied and wanted to return the item to him.

Qin Ruo took a step back and pointed at the warp portal.

“Sister Violet, did you not want to bring everyone to the fifth floor? If you do, then use it… This is a Tier 5 Magic Boss with two Tier 5 Minibosses, with us in the battle, it should be more than enough to vanquish the Skelewing Dragon.”

Violet Orchid was momentarily enticed by his words.

Two Tier 5 Minibosses would certainly be able to ensure everyone enters the fifth floor of the Graveyard of the Gods safely. When that time came, the fates of these people would no longer be in her hands. Even if they were to meet their end on the fifth floor after experiencing its cruelty, everyone would surely still be satisfied—After all, among the hundreds and millions of players, barely one in ten thousand was able to even step foot onto the fifth floor.

The excitement was short-lived as Violet Orchid knitted her eyebrows and said to Qin Ruo, “No! It is better for you to use this item yourself, if I were to enter the fifth floor I will have to be with my League. If you follow us, you will not be able to get a Divinity, so it is only right that you hold on to this Mana Core!”

“Pfft, I still have one more with me don’t I? Besides, it’s going to take another half an hour before I can summon the Amethyst Orc, isn’t it just going to be an utter waste for me to have two Monster Summons? I will not even be able to control them… Just use it Sister Violet, when we reach the fifth floor of the Graveyard of the Gods we will each go our own ways anyway. Until then, this Boss will help me to protect you so that you can group up with Brother Slayer, right?”

“Alright, it’s decided then!”

“Summon it! If we drag this out any longer the Amethyst Orc’s time is going to get shorter and shorter.” Qin Ruo pushed on relentlessly. Under his persuasion and advice, Violet Orchid finally gave in and agreed with a nod.

She lifted her hand…

In front of dozens of people with astonished looks on their faces, a ray of holy light shone forth from Violet Orchid’s hand and formed a ray of light blazing like a meteor flaring twenty meters away!

The Sealed Mana Core disappeared from Violet Orchid’s hand.

A White Tiger with upturned eyes and a battle pattern of the letter ‘M’ engraved on its forehead materialised in front of the party, on top of it was a Half-Beast which had gray fur from head to toe. The presence of the summon exuded an abnormally holy vibe, so much so that the Tomb Region’s gloominess seemed to be lifted and dispelled from where it stood.

White Tiger Shaman:

Tier 5 Light-type Miniboss, specializes in using Light magic as well as Priest skills like Dispel, Heal, and Bless… 100000 HP, 2000 MP.

It actually turned out to be a Light-type Boss. Qin Ruo and Violet Orchid exchanged looks of alarm mixed with hints of excitement and delight.

“Damn!”

“Another Tier 5 Miniboss? How do you guys do this!”

Subjugator and the rest of the party filed out one by one, unable to contain their excitement and surprise as they stared mesmerized by the shaman riding on the white tiger. They started to clamor loudly at this sight.

“Qin Ruo, you are such a tricky fella, you said you only exchanged two pieces of Sealed Mana Core!”

“Shit, I can’t believe you hid this magnificent thing from us. This won’t do, when we reach the fifth floor I’m sticking with you guys! Two Tier 5 Minibosses, damn it, I feel so fricking safe right now!”

“Why don’t we play a game, the person who wins will have the right to ask Qin Ruo to reveal one of his secrets, what say you all?”

“Agreed! Haha!”

Laughter broke out from the group…

From afar, Tiger Cub and his group who were waiting for the Angel Faction party to attack so that they could find an opening to overturn the battle, had their jaws dropped on the ground at the sight of what they just witnessed.

Even the well-renowned Savage Cub who had seen so much, felt unspeakably dispirited at the sight of the two Tier 5 Minibosses that were summoned in the very same party. For the first time ever, Tiger Cub felt that he should stop trailing after this particular party.
