Chapter 385: Warrior-type, Summoning-type! A Special Mechanic?
As the two colored stone statues revived, the gilded radiance enveloping the space above brightened by several degrees. Atop the lotus pattern in the center of the great hall, a faint phantom materialized.
In that instant, the originally empty and silent plaza completely came to life.
"A 90% reduction in physical damage?"
Tang Zheng's eyes widened as he saw the information appear above the heads of the Growth Heavenly King and the Vast Eye Heavenly King. "Are you kidding me? How are warrior-type players supposed to fight this?"
Bang! Bang!
The massive, over five-meter-tall figures of the Growth Heavenly King and the Vast Eye Heavenly King stepped forward simultaneously, making the entire ground tremble. A majestic, oppressive feeling washed over him.
Tang Zheng looked at the two wrathful figures before him, two Heavenly Kings who resembled divine gods from legend. He suddenly felt like he was back in a game, confronting a boss from the protagonist's perspective.
However, playing a game and facing the situation in reality were two completely different things.
Tang Zheng's entire body tensed subconsciously. With such high damage reduction and no information whatsoever, a direct frontal assault was the worst possible strategy.
In a game, you have revival opportunities; in reality, you don't!
Use magic for a long-range attack!
Tang Zheng instantly decided on his strategy. Stomping hard on the ground, his figure retreated once more as he simultaneously activated a ninja skill.
"Ninjutsu: Shadow Clone Technique!"
The shadow squirmed!
Tang Zheng and his shadow clone flashed, retreating in perfect unison to first put sufficient distance between themselves and the two Heavenly Kings ahead.
The great hall was quite spacious, providing some tactical depth.
The Growth Heavenly King's body was entirely azure. Its ferocious gaze locked onto them as it drew a longsword glowing with red light and let out a sacred, wrathful roar:
"Your greed, hatred, and delusion shall be slain this day!"
"Your sins are all but empty illusions!"
The Vast Eye Heavenly King was entirely crimson. The serpents on its body, which had previously resembled mere ribbons, came to life at this moment, coiling and slithering on both sides of its shoulders.
Swoosh!
Tang Zheng had no interest in listening to the slogans of the two Heavenly Kings. He took a "Frogman Egg" from his item box and tossed it to his shadow clone.
This would allow it to exist for a longer period!
The shadow clone had completely inherited his MP stat, so the initial mana consumption could be handled by it.
[Shadow MP: 883/918]
"10th Tier: Overheat!" The shadow clone was the first to cast a spell.
Naturally, Tang Zheng had no intention of letting the enemy make the first move.
BOOM—!
In an instant!
With the shadow clone at the center, the air within a radius of dozens of meters instantly turned pure crimson. Indescribable light and heat expanded in a flash, creating a massive shockwave that erupted violently.
A terrifying blast wave, carrying temperatures of over a thousand degrees, engulfed the two Heavenly Kings in an instant!
The moment the shadow clone cast the spell, Tang Zheng had already closed his eyes to prevent his vision from being affected.
"Hah!"
"Hah!"
Two furious roars echoed from the direction of the two Heavenly Kings.
As the blinding red light vanished in a flash, Tang Zheng quickly opened his eyes and looked forward. The terrifying heat distorted the air, making the two massive, over five-meter-tall figures ahead appear slightly blurry.
The first thing he looked at was, naturally, their health bars!
Tang Zheng needed to confirm the amount of damage dealt by this attack spell.
The illusory red health bars above the two Heavenly Kings' heads showed a small empty segment, roughly 1%.
"The damage is that low?" Tang Zheng's expression suddenly turned ugly.
This was 10th-tier magic!
Or was it because the level difference between them gave the enemy a stat bonus?
Thud! Thud!
The Growth Heavenly King, holding its crimson longsword, suddenly broke into a run, its massive azure figure displaying a speed that far surpassed its size.
*Slay Greed*
The red longsword swung.
A golden slash, faintly flowing with the "Greed" rune, shot toward them from a distance.
[Shadow MP: 873/918]
"5th Tier Magic: Skull Wall!" The shadow clone reacted swiftly.
Crash!
A wall composed of countless white bones rose rapidly from the ground, the skeletons within it letting out terrifying shrieks.
BOOM!
The slash landed, and the Skull Wall shattered on the spot.
*Three Crimson Pythons*
At this moment, the Vast Eye Heavenly King also activated a skill. Three magic circles suddenly appeared before its body.
Hiss~ Hiss~ Hiss~
Three crimson pythons, each over ten meters long, shot out from the magic circles, slithering rapidly as they charged toward Tang Zheng and his clone.
"One is a warrior-type, the other a summoning-type?"
Seeing the two Heavenly Kings' attack patterns, this thought flashed through Tang Zheng's mind as he provisionally confirmed this piece of basic information.
BOOM!
After smashing through the obstruction of the Skull Wall, the Growth Heavenly King, longsword in hand, was now close. It raised its weapon again to slash down.
"Split up!"
A glint flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes as he issued a command mentally.
The shadow clone, which had inherited his full agility stat, immediately moved off to the side.
"*Slay Hatred*"
The Growth Heavenly King's cold gaze immediately locked onto the shadow clone, and at the same moment, it swung its longsword in the direction the clone was moving.
An attack flowing with the golden "Hatred" rune flew out!
[Shadow MP: 863/918]
"Skull Wall!" The shadow clone cast the spell again.
The wall of white skeletons rising from the ground once again blocked the attack.
It had to be said that as a defensive measure, this spell was extremely valuable, both in terms of its mana cost and its overall practicality.
Seeing the Growth Heavenly King pursue the shadow clone, Tang Zheng thought, "As expected. The Growth Heavenly King is prioritizing its attacks on the shadow clone that's dealing magic damage, while ignoring me, the one who hasn't attacked at all."
A sharp glint flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes. "In that case, the Growth Heavenly King should be susceptible to having its aggro pulled."
He glanced at his status panel.
Tang Zheng noticed that the skills used by the two Heavenly Kings weren't displayed on the panel, and he subconsciously furrowed his brow.
Hiss—!
The three crimson giant snakes didn't pursue the shadow clone, swarming toward Tang Zheng instead.
"As a summoning-type, the Vast Eye Heavenly King isn't affected by the aggro from the shadow clone's attacks?"
Watching the three crimson giant snakes, Tang Zheng didn't retreat any further, as he had already reached the very edge of the plaza.
The area behind him looked hazy and empty, but it was in fact a wall-like barrier.
He issued another command to the shadow clone!
[Shadow MP: 798/918]
"Magic Resistance Penetration - 10th Tier: Overheat!"
—BOOM!
Searing light and heat once again filled his vision. A fiery red glow instantly covered the entire plaza as a terrifying shockwave spread out.
Crash!
