Chapter 287 - Bastard and the B*tch

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Strategized positioning was key to taking down Jackalling General.

“All of you, one on the left, one on the right, one in the front and one at the back. I’ll be up and about on the outside. You guys stand there and don’t move. Lock Jackalling General in when it attempts to Sweep, then Dodge when it swings its ax. Pay attention when it begins to attack my pet. We don’t have a main tank so there’s no one who can Taunt. The only way to go about this is to dismiss my pet. Once Aggro is diverted, Ice, fasten a shield on the person taking the hit.”

The strategy to killing Jackalling was complicated. It could not be easily explained through words. These five party members would have to begin their attack and coordinate tightly before they could consider taking it down.

“Do you guys get it?”

“A lil...”

“Yeah...”

The four women’s confidence was shaken after witnessing Jackalling General’s abilities.

“Let’s do it. As long as you dodge and keep the Charge coming, it’s an easy win.”

Li Yi ordered Violent Bear King to Charge and the four women stood in their four directions respectively following his instructions.

“What kind of idiot dares ambush me? Tired of living, huh?”

Jackalling General began with its opening speech before Sweeping its ax at Violent Bear King. This time, the four women immediately closed in without needing Li Yi’s instruction.

A -2,000 damage counter appeared on top of Violent Bear King’s head. The four women were able to dodge in time, Li Yi who was 40 yards away, was unscathed.

Jackalling General raised its ax up high for the chop, cueing the four women to run back to position. Li Yi and Fire Ice took the opportunity to heal Violent Bear King during this interval. Once its HP was full, Jackalling General’s ax hammered down.

[-5112]

[-5234]

Two continuous chops left Violent Bear King on the brink of death. Fire Ice and Li Yi’s healing enabled it to withstand a third hack with difficulty.

“Dismiss!”

With a swing of Li Yi’s arm, Violent Bear King disappeared.

There was no cooldown period for a Pet Archer to interchange between pets. However, the same pet could not be summoned twice in a battle. In other words, once Violent Bear King was off the stage, it could not be summoned again. Of course, this rule applied only to regular Archers. Li Yi, on the other hand, was not restricted by this.

“Camouflage!”

Li Yi was able to break away from the battle. At the sound of his whistle, Violent Bear King appeared beneath him once again.

Only Camouflage could overcome the restriction from repeat summoning of pets in battle, not even Pseudocide was able to achieve this.

Seeing Jackalling General about to pounce at Little Elf from the Magical Realm, Fire Ice pointed her staff to lock an 8-second invincible Holy Light Shield on her.

Jackalling General raised its ax up high, ready to strike. Wham! It crushed the 8-second invincible Holy Light Shield in one hit.

The ax held in its hands had a shield-piercing effect!

Chain Arrow Skill! Exterminate!

Before Jackalling General’s ax landed on her, Li Yi used Mislead on Violent Bear King to initiate an attack. The others followed through on his earlier instructions, refraining from making any attacks and staying where they were.

“Shit, shit, arf arf arf...”

Jackalling General turned his Aggro on Violent Bear King, pouncing over with Charge.

Violent Bear King let out a thundering roar as it swung its paws left and right, pulling high amounts of Aggro from Jackalling General. It was then, Jackalling General suddenly switched its target to Charge at Fire Ice.

“Nobody move!” shouted Li Yi.

The four women stood where they were. Jackalling General did not attack Fire Ice. It continued to Charge. This time, its target was Xu Man, then Moonlight Ocean, followed by Little Elf from the Magical Realm...

The four women did not waver throughout the entire process, with only Li Yi firing arrows rapidly while keeping his distance away from the AoE. He even switched to his orange-colored bow in order to kill Jackalling General.

With a bottle of Advanced-level Fury Potion consumed, buffs cast and Violent Bear’s Protection applied, Li Yi easily dealt at least 10,000 in damage, causing Jackalling General’s HP to take a quick dip.

“Turn on Miracle, go for it!”

Li Yi commanded the four to start their attacks when Jackalling General’s HP dropped to less than 200,000.

“Miracle of Wind!”

The increase of 30% on their ATK SPD and casting SPD allowed them to encircle Jackalling General and to hurl attacks furiously.

“Damn you bastards! Watch me take you out in one go after my ten-second rest.”

At the 180,000 HP mark, Jackalling General rested its whole weight onto its ax as it stopped to catch its breath. It was at such a time, its HP would recover. Once the ten seconds were over, Jackalling General would go berserk on top of having its HP full. Nobody would be able to stop it then.

Although the party led by Li Yi was lacking in DPS, he himself could handle the work of three members. Coupled with Little Elf from Magical Realm’s Epic skill, dealing 200,000 damage in ten seconds was manageable.

Jackalling General was dead, in less than a minute.

“That was easy.” Moonlight Ocean smiled.

“Half of it came from luck. If you don’t believe me, see you if you can get lucky the next time,” Li Yi snorted. He pointed at the Jackalling’s corpse, “The best item this dog shit can drop is that ax. A Violent Warrior’s JP weapon. If you manage to loot that, it’s worth at least 20,000 Gold Coins.”

“Allow me!”

Little Elf from the Magical Realm went up to loot. She rummaged for a while before her face froze.

It came out a rare... empty hand!

“No way! Nothing? Wh-what the hell?”

Fire Ice was not the least bit surprised, “It’s quite common. If you were to ask Guild Master Dark Wing to loot, there’s a 50% chance he’ll come out empty-handed.”

Little Elf from the Magical Realm was silent. “...”

Xu Man glanced at the time before asking, “Dark Wing, how long it’ll take to defeat the Bastard and the B*tch?”

Li Yi held up all his fingers as an answer.

Xu Man jumped, “Ten hours? No can do. I have to leave in two hours. I have a conference to get to, how annoying.”

Li Yi shook his head, “I mean, ten minutes.”

“10 minutes?”

“Let’s get a move on and stop bickering now. We still have to clear the Jackallings down the three passageways.”

The five continued on their journey.

Many players who were not familiar with the strategy would have spent a long time to get to the end of the passageway, only to find the entrance locked.

To get to the male and female bosses was simple. As long as the Jackallings outside the dungeon were dead, the male and female bosses would then open the door.

If one had not played this dungeon before, searching for the Jackallings would be time-consuming. However, this was no issue to Li Yi. He led the four women to wipe out all the Jackallings in no time.

“... This one’s sneaky, hiding in the wall.”

“This one’s even sneakier, it knows Stealth. If it wasn’t because we know their actual location, who would be able to find it?”

The fuss stirring between the women left Li Yi in laughter.

It was not long before the five arrived at the end of the passageway. The entrance door was already open. Lawson, a Paladin in silver armor and Mel, a High Clergy were having an affectionate exchange.

Lawson, “The Jackallings seemed to have retreated...”

Mel, “...”

Lawson asked with deep emotions, “Mel, do you have any regrets?”

Mel, “...”

Lawson embraced Mel, “You are equally important to me as the Holy Light. No, no, you’re more important than the Holy Light. You’re my everything. I will do anything for you, Mel...”

Mel, “...”

The two were locked in a deep embrace as they began to tongue each other. If the players did not interrupt, they would carry on with their exchange of saliva...n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Bastard and the B*tch!” The four females snorted.

Xu Man asked Li Yi, “How do we play this?”

“Surround Paladin Lawson later. Remember, you must surround him and do not let him close to Mel or it’s the end.”

“Surround?” The four females were in a daze.

“Did you see how passionate Lawson is? This Mr. Paladin complies with the Paladin rules to a tee so he will not lay a hand on women. As long as you don’t initiate any attack, he will not fight you.”

“Wow... No way?” Moonlight Ocean gasped with surprise.

“You’ll know it when we begin. Lawson moves really quick so you need to block him off. If the two get close, it would trigger a buff of 300% increase on ATK and HP.”

Xu Man was astonished. “Apart from this, is there anything else we need to pay attention to?”

“Nope.”

“Impossible, this is a 7-star dungeon. It can’t be this easy?”

Li Yi sheepishly replied, “Well, it’ll be hard if I didn’t team up with four chicks.”

“Address me as older sis,” Little Elf from the Magical Realm corrected him.

“Let’s do it!”

At the sound of Li Yi’s orders, the four women barged in and encircled Paladin Lawson.

“Son...”

“Mel, don’t be afraid, I will always protect you, to my last breath!”

Paladin Lawson erected a Holy Light Shield. And it was then, Li Yi made his move. He positioned Violent Bear King beneath his feet, launching Mislead before shooting at Mel.

Mel’s Aggro was fixed on Violent Bear King. She held a dagger and pounced forward. This High Clergy of the Cursing Sect played a Cyclone Thief character.

“Mel, don’t be afraid. I will always be by your side.”

Paladin Lawson tried leaping to left and to the right in order to get to Mel, alas, the four women left no openings in their encirclement, trapping him in.

“One of the rules a Paladin must obey is not to strike a woman, I... I...” Lawson twirled in circles in pain. He was out of ideas.

“Hahaha, it really works! Yay!” Xu Man struck a victory pose at Li Yi.

Mel drew close to Violent Bear King, swiftly launching a chain of attacks, taking out 10,000 HP of Violent Bear King’s HP. Fire Ice promptly cast a shield on it, raising its HP back up.

Paladin Lawson had 3,000,000 HP while Mel had 2,500,000. The two had healing skills. The Paladin was proficient in Holy Light Healing while Mel would use Bandage during Stealth when low on HP.

Violent Bear King could take on Mel’s attacks, taking a load off Li Yi. He only needed to focus on dealing damage.

The regular way to play this was to have two main tanks, each pulling one boss respectively. One main tank would battle it out on the spot while the other would lure Mel to a corner where Lawson could not see her. The healers would take turns to heal. DPS played an important part in winning this battle.

Li Yi’s ferocious attacks reduced Mel’s HP at a fast rate. When her HP was less than 1,000,000, she started to go into Stealth for Bandage.

“Freezing Trap!”

Li Yi placed a Freezing Trap behind him. A dull grunt was immediately heard from Mel, followed by revealing herself. Her channeling time of Bandage was disrupted.

Mel’s Stealth and Bandage move had a distinguishing feature. She would only execute this move at the back of her target so countering this was not all difficult.

Li Yi continued his attack. It was not long before the black robe over Mel’s body was torn open, revealing a pair of fair and smooth legs as she collapsed in death.
