Chapter 117

Assassins naturally possess stealth skills, while also being capable of anti-stealth.

This skill is similar to the Mage's Eye of Mage Professionals.

Or the Eagle Eye of Archer Professionals.

Both have anti-stealth capabilities.

Relatively speaking, an Assassin's capability in this area is stronger; after all, it is their specialty.

Ning Yiyi used her skills to guide the way, revealing the Dragon Assassins one by one to be quickly cleared out.

Originally, clearing these monsters would require using Skeleton Warriors as bait, at the cost of them getting injured.

This time, turning passive into active made it much easier.

All the minor monsters were cleared out, leaving only the BOSS.

The statue of the Dragon Guardian stood there, terrifying and majestic.

Lin Moyu cast Bone Armor on himself and Ning Yiyi again, whispering, "Go stand on the city wall. Don't get close to me."

Ning Yiyi asked in confusion, "Why?"

In her mind, whenever Lin Moyu fought any monster, the Skeleton Warriors acted as meat shields, so he himself was never in any danger.

This was also the usual playstyle of a Summoner.

Lin Moyu said softly, "He is different. I am the meat shield."

Chapter 119: I Am the Meat Shield, So It Can Be Fought This Way

Ning Yiyi didn't understand, but she was still very obedient.

Standing on the high city wall, she could only see a faint shadow of Lin Moyu.

Ning Yiyi decisively activated a skill, greatly enhancing her vision.

"I can finally see clearly."

She giggled and sat down.

She originally wanted to take out something to eat, but her storage space was locked down, so she couldn't take anything out.

After rummaging through her pockets, she finally pulled out a sweet potato.

"Good thing I was prepared." Ning Yiyi carefully peeled the sweet potato skin and ate it slowly bit by bit.

If Lin Moyu were here, he would recognize that this was the very sweet potato he had given her.

He wouldn't have expected Ning Yiyi to keep it until now.

Fortunately, with storage spaces, there was no need to worry about food spoiling inside.

Lin Moyu had already set up his battle formation.

With his previous experience, he was much more proficient this time.

The Skeleton Mages stood in a circle along the plaza, surrounding the Outpost Guardian in the center.

The Skeleton Warriors were all recalled.

Lin Moyu stood right in front of the stone statue, clad in his Bone Armor, completely unconcerned.

After reaching Level 23, the defensive power of Bone Armor had been enhanced once again.

With a defense equivalent to 69,000 Constitution, even if he stood still and let the Outpost Guardian attack him, it would take a very long time to break.

The stone statue vibrated, its outer shell cracking and peeling off.

The entire plaza rumbled, and the fortress trembled.

Watching Lin Moyu recall all the Skeleton Warriors, Ning Yiyi became even more curious, "Why did you put the Skeleton Warriors away? Are we not fighting?"

Just as she believed Lin Moyu could clear the Hell difficulty, she had no doubts now either.

She was just curious, like an inquisitive baby.

The Outpost Guardian fully awakened. Soul Fire ignited in Lin Moyu's palm, striking directly at its soul.

The Skeleton Mages attacked at the same time Lin Moyu made his move.

All kinds of spells rained down on the Outpost Guardian.

The Outpost Guardian let out a scream, followed by a roar toward the sky.

Lin Moyu pressed his palm down, and red light filled the sky.

Red shackles suddenly appeared above the Outpost Guardian's head, and its roars ground to a halt, becoming intermittent.

The slow effect was comprehensive; not a single movement could escape it.

Right after, a white light erupted from the Outpost Guardian, diluting the Slow Curse and restoring a lot of its speed.

Lin Moyu felt that the Slow Curse had been weakened by at least several times.

Now, it was only slowing it down by about three or four times at most.

A world of difference compared to the skill's original 34.5x effect.

The Outpost Guardian rumbled violently, its entire body glowing.

Skill: Group Repel.

Lin Moyu stood firm. His Bone Armor bore the brunt of the skill, and the knockback attribute failed to take effect.

The Outpost Guardian was infuriated, leaping high into the air with an angry roar.

The large blade in its hand came crashing down.

"Ah!"

Ning Yiyi let out a startled cry from the city wall.

Lin Moyu didn't even dodge. With a blade far larger than himself coming down, any normal person would have been smashed into minced meat.

The Bone Armor shone brightly, firmly blocking the large blade. Lin Moyu was completely unharmed.

The Group Stun skill also failed to take effect.

At this moment, a group of skeletons appeared around the Outpost Guardian.

There weren't many, only about twenty.

As soon as they appeared, they unleashed their skills.

Skill: Berserk Strike!

Shrouded in the red light of the skill, large blades hacked down onto the Outpost Guardian.

Its scales shattered, and the Outpost Guardian screamed in agony.

The Soul Fire never stopped.

As Lin Moyu's strongest single-target damage skill at present, Soul Fire had never let him down.

Its damage was even higher than the skills of the Skeleton Mages.

After unleashing their skills, the Skeleton Warriors began to attack frantically, strike after strike.

Ten seconds later, the Outpost Guardian's skill cooldown ended, and it unleashed its skill once more.

At the exact moment the skill erupted, Lin Moyu recalled all the Skeleton Warriors.

Once its skill subsided, another batch of Skeleton Warriors appeared.

Also twenty of them, but a different batch.

A fresh batch that hadn't used their skills yet.

They also activated their skills, dealing another wave of damage.

When the Outpost Guardian went to activate its skill again, they all vanished once more.

Ning Yiyi was dumbfounded.

So a BOSS could actually be fought like this.

So a mage could actually act as a meat shield.

So summons could be used so flexibly.

So the defensive power of the Bone Armor on her was actually this strong.

Ning Yiyi's eyes curved into crescents, sparkling with starlight, completely filled with Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu continued like this, round after round.

The efficiency was much higher than last time.

In just ten minutes, the seemingly powerful Outpost Guardian was worn down to death by Lin Moyu.

It collapsed to the ground in resentment.

[Killed Outpost Guardian, Experience +1,650,000]

[Obtained Gold-grade weapon: Hell Outpost Magic Sword.]

[Obtained Gold-grade armor: Hell Outpost Magic Robe.]

[Obtained Gold-grade jewelry: Hell Outpost Ring.]

[Obtained Dragon Crystal Core *2]

[Ning Yiyi obtained Class Change Certificate]

[Hell Outpost Magic Sword (One of the Outpost Set): Gold-grade weapon, all attributes +500, Mage-type skill amplification +50%, usable at Level 30 and above]

[Hell Outpost Magic Robe (One of the Outpost Set): Gold-grade armor, all attributes +300, Mage-type skill consumption reduced by 20%, usable at Level 30 and above]

[Hell Outpost Ring (One of the Outpost Set): Gold-grade jewelry, all attributes +100, fatigue recovery speed increased by 30%, usable at Level 30 and above]

[Dragon Crystal Core: Extremely rare material, can be used to craft various items]

Looking at the attributes of the Magic Sword and Magic Robe.

Lin Moyu felt that after he reached Level 30, he could replace his Spirit Set with the Hell Outpost Set.

Although the Mage-type bonuses were useless to him, the all-attributes boost was substantial, making it much better to use than the Spirit Set.

Ning Yiyi leaped down from the city wall with a whoosh, ran quickly to Lin Moyu, and threw herself into his arms.

"What's wrong?" Lin Moyu was a bit flustered, not understanding what had happened.

Ning Yiyi cried out happily, "The Class Change Certificate! The Class Change Certificate! I got the Class Change Certificate!"

"Isn't the Class Change Certificate a guaranteed drop?"

Lin Moyu found it strange. Why was she so excited about a guaranteed drop in a Hell-difficulty Dungeon?

Realizing she seemed overexcited, Ning Yiyi quickly let go of Lin Moyu, took two steps back with a flushed face, and lowered her head.

To suppress her embarrassment, Ning Yiyi quickly changed the subject, "Even though it's a guaranteed drop, it's not that simple."

"For example, a Hell-difficulty Dungeon requires at least 12 people, and up to 18 or even 24 people."

"Clearing it once only drops one Class Change Certificate, which is randomly given to someone who doesn't have one yet."

"In other words, if it's a fixed team, to get a Class Change Certificate for everyone, a 12-person team would have to clear it 12 times."

"An 18-person team would have to clear it 18 times…"

"Running a Hell Dungeon is tiring and dangerous. Having to run it over a dozen times would drive anyone crazy."

"Thus, the Class Change Certificate becomes the hardest step in the Second Class Transfer, leaving countless people stuck here."

Lin Moyu thought of the Dungeon quests in the academy.

They had to clear the large-scale Dungeon, Tyrant Desert, which similarly had countless people stuck.

The two situations seemed very similar.

Lin Moyu didn't think too much about it. Now that the BOSS was defeated, the Dungeon restrictions were lifted.

Lin Moyu took out the Hell Outpost Dagger and handed it to Ning Yiyi, "This is for you."
