Chapter 73 : Dimension-Crushing attack
Dimension-Crushing attack
There were no mana bars for monsters in Legend of Kaloran, so Sindigo's skills seemed endless, flinging one after another at the silver-haired girl as if they cost nothing.
Chen Zixuan didn't dare to meet them head-on, having no choice but to kite around Sindigo, using his 380 agility to circle her and dodge her magical attacks.
Spell after spell smashed the ground, sending rocks and dust flying, but none of them managed to inflict a scratch on Chen Zixuan.
When Sindigo's skills all went on cooldown, Chen Zixuan rolled close again, sneaked in a few stabs, then followed up with a 【Silverflash Pierce】, dealing considerable damage.
Afterwards, as soon as Sindigo's cooldowns refreshed, Chen Zixuan retreated to widen the distance, and again, spell after spell missed, striking only the ground.
Looking at the shallow pits all around—each one blasted out by Sindigo—even if Chen Zixuan looked calm on the surface, he still felt a cold sweat break out inside.
If those skills had all landed, even ten lives would not have been enough.
Luckily, he hadn't brought Gu Yanxi and the others. Otherwise, they all would have been wiped out for sure.
After several more minutes of chipping away, Sindigo's health finally dropped below 40%.
Chen Zixuan finally breathed a sigh of relief—after all, for an agile class like his, he still had a clear advantage over mages.
Just as Chen Zixuan burned his last bit of mana, unleashing 【Silverflash Pierce】 intending to finish off the Fallen Sorcerer, Sindigo suddenly flung back her hood, revealing a face old and gnarled as tree bark. He glared venomously at the silver-haired girl and rasped, "Vampire, can't you really let me go?!"
With things having progressed to this point, Chen Zixuan neither understood nor cared to think too hard.
He simply raised his hand and hurled his silver-serpent dagger; in a flash of electricity, it stabbed right into Sindigo's chest.
-1320!
A grey true damage number appeared as Sindigo's health bar was instantly emptied.
But in the next second, a bizarre situation unfolded.
Though black, viscous blood kept gushing from his mouth, the black-robed sorcerer's corpse did not collapse—instead, he stared wide-eyed at the silver-haired girl, and in a chilling voice rasped,
"Kill... me, and you must also pay... the price!"
His health bar was gone—why wouldn't he die?
The silver-haired girl's expression flickered, a sense of foreboding rising in her heart.
At that moment, Sindigo showed Chen Zixuan a wicked, brutal smile, and then, a jet-black beam shot out from her eyes like spilled ink!
The speed of light—how could a human react to that? Chen Zixuan had no time to dodge at all; the beam illuminated him inside and out in an instant.
It's over... The silver-haired girl slowly closed her eyes.
So this was the true final BOSS of the event. She had anticipated Sindigo might have something up her sleeve, but after so much caution, to be defeated at the last moment...
Yet, the expected pain never came.
A few seconds later, Chen Zixuan snapped back to himself. He hurriedly looked down and was shocked to discover he was completely unharmed—not a single hit point lost, not a single debuff.
Did it miss? Impossible!
Just now, Chen Zixuan had clearly felt that pitch-black light hit squarely in his chest.
"What did you do to me?"
The silver-haired girl suddenly raised her head and asked Sindigo coldly.
At this moment, after emitting that beam, Sindigo's aura instantly withered, as if entering a state of utter exhaustion. Even her chin whiskers began to fall off, and the wrinkles on her face deepened, creasing over and over like ravines.
It appeared that this beam had taken a massive toll on her vitality.
Yet, even in this sorry state, Sindigo grinned with a twisted sneer, her clouded old eyes filled with cruelty and malice.
"Vampire... though you've killed me... Lord U... Uriel will avenge me!"
Uriel—that was one of the four final BOSSes of the entire game, archangel Uriel?
At Sindigo's words, Chen Zixuan's heart turned cold.
Come on, don't do this! I just killed an level 18 newbie village mini-boss, and now the game's final boss is going to show up?!
How is a guy supposed to keep enjoying the game after this?
No, this old sorcerer must just be bluffing—one last threat to scare me before she dies.
With that thought, Chen Zixuan felt a little better. He gave a cold snort and said expressionlessly, "Are you done? Then you can die now."
"Don't rush... I'm going now... heh heh..."
Sindigo slowly nodded, a warped smile on her face.
With that, she suddenly raised her staff high and cried out hoarsely:
"Master of the order of the astral stars! King of angels ruling the flames of hell! I offer up my everything—begging you, use brimstone and hellfire to scorch these wicked heretics, and hurl their souls into the underworld, there to suffer torment for all eternity!"
"Really getting into character, aren't you..."
Faced with the almost maniacal Sindigo, the silver-haired girl arched her brows and sneered.
But in the very next instant, as Sindigo's body suddenly exploded into a cloud of black mist, Chen Zixuan abruptly sensed an overwhelmingly vast presence and pressure come crashing down, making his hair stand on end and his SAN almost tank to zero in an instant!
It was as if he had entered a fog-shrouded world; his surroundings fragmented, and a colossal full moon hung overhead, casting pure and lucid moonlight.
A soft laugh echoed out of nowhere, as if crossing all time and space, reverberating heavily in Chen Zixuan's mind.
Boom!
That entire world seemed to shatter apart in an instant!
The silver-haired girl felt as though slammed by a force, her legs turning to jelly as she collapsed in terrified spasms, her eyes reflecting endless emptiness.
Now, in Chen Zixuan's mind, only the simplest thought remained:
No way no way... No way no way...
Don't tell me the real boss is actually coming for a dimension-crushing attack?
At that moment, millions of kilometers away from the main city, inside a grand and majestic palace towering above the clouds, there suddenly sounded a puzzled "Hm?"
"Clearly the body is such a cute girl, but why is the soul of a boy?"
"Hee hee hee..."
The shadow seated at the long table in the great hall suddenly laughed with a twitchy, neurotic giggle.
The next second, it snapped its fingers, and an ancient, heavy notebook flew into its hand and was opened on the table.
"Oh well, they're doomed in the end anyway. Let me enjoy myself a little longer... wouldn't hurt, right...?"
