Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Chapter 224: Triggering The Boss's Appearance

When he saw the Soul Devour Insects abruptly turn around and leave, Lin Moyu was puzzled. Then, he saw a massive Soul Devour Insect flying toward him like a bolt of lightning.

"So big!" Accustomed to seeing smaller ones, Lin Moyu was taken aback by the sheer size of this one.

He instinctively cast Detection.

[Soul Devour Insect King (lord rank boss)]

[Level: 55]

[Strength: 80,000]

[Agility: 80,000]

[Spirit: 40,000]

[Physique: 100,000]

[Traits: Ignore Defense, Ignore Physical Immunity, Bite Everything]

When he saw the attributes, Lin Moyu was speechless.

The Soul Devour Insect King was a level 55 monster, a lord rank boss, only one rank below world rank boss, with its four attributes combining totaling a whopping of 300,000 points.

"I need to get serious!"

After some thought, Lin Moyu decided to wait for the Soul Devour Insect King to come to him before launching Corpse Explosion.

The ground was littered with the corpses of Soul Devour Insects, as well as the corpses of Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind class users. Coupled with the Damage Curse's boost, the odds were in his favor.

The Soul Devour Insect King stopped in midair, its massive eyes fixed on Lin Moyu. There was no murderous intent in its gaze, only cold indifference.

Countless Soul Devour Insects gathered around it and emitted sharp screeches, as if telling it what had happened. The area was filled with the earsplitting din of the Soul Devour Insects.

Lin Moyu creased his eyebrows, finding the noise grating. Suddenly, all the noise stopped. Lin Moyu quickly tensed up.

The next second, the Soul Devour Insect King let out a deafening screech, dispersing the light of the Immemorial Battlefield, raising sound waves that traveled far and wide.

Lin Moyu's Bone Armor glowed brightly, resisting the impact of the sound waves.

The skeletons, on the other hand, were all injured. The Lich Generals cast their Legion Heal skill simultaneously, healing the skeletons.

In the upper layer, although level 55 wasn't considered the pinnacle, but a level 55 lord rank boss, with a total of 300,000 points in attributes, could definitely defeat ordinary level 65 monsters.

Merely a screech from the Soul Devour Insect King was enough to kill someone.

The Bone Armor creaked, and its glow quickly dimmed. Lin Moyu promptly recast Bone Armor.

The Soul Devour Insect King opened its large mouth part, and the Soul Devour Insects willingly flew inside. The Soul Devour Insect King's figure grew even larger and began to expand.

On the ground, the corpses of the Soul Devour Insects turned into soul fragments that assimilated with the Soul Devour Insect King. The corpses disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

As its figure continued to change, the Soul Devour Insect King continued to screech, the noise traveling far and wide, reaching people far away.

"That's the Soul Devour Insect King. Shit, the Soul Devour Insect King is out! Run!"

"Every time the Soul Devour Insect King comes out, it raises storms of blood. Let's go. If we dally here, we'll be in trouble."

"It's not just us, the monsters need to run as well. The Soul Devour Insects eat everything they see. There's nothing they can't eat."

"I remember the Soul Devour Insect King came out just half a year ago. Why is it out again so soon? That's really weird."

"Strange. Since the Soul Devour Insect King is so amazing, it should drop a lot of good stuff, right? So why doesn't anyone go kill it?"

"Once, a team of over 100 Dragonkind class users attempted to kill it, but they only managed to drive it away."

Upon hearing the screeching, the countenance of human class users, Dragonkind class users, and even Abyssal Demons changed drastically, and they rapidly fled into the distance.

In addition to them, the nearby monsters also erupted into a chaotic frenzy, frantically fleeing into the distance.

Lin Moyu's eyes turned solemn.

On the ground, the corpses of the Soul Devour Insects had disappeared, with only the corpses of several Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind class remaining.

Within just a minute, the Soul Devour Insect King's figure had expanded by a large chunk, and the number of its insect legs increased from 18 to 36.

Each insect leg was five to six meters long, and was covered in sharp barbs. The rest of its body was also covered in barbs. In addition, its body was covered in glistening scales.

Lin Moyu looked pensive, thinking that she barbs could be used to his advantage. They could be used by Skeletal Warriors as stable handholds.

When the Soul Devour Insect King finally completed its transformation, dozens of eyes suddenly appeared all over its body, leaving no blind spots to exploit.

"The eyes can also be exploited. I can have the Skeletal Warriors target them."

"I wonder if the Bone Fangs can pierce its defenses."

At this point, panic was of no use. Lin Moyu was thinking about how to fight, how to slay the opponent.

Level 55 lord rank boss, that was 25 levels higher than him. But Lin Moyu wasn't afraid at all. After all, he had been killing higher-leveled monsters all along. It's just that this time the difference in levels was a bit extreme.

After the Soul Devour Insect King devoured all the Soul Devour Insects and absorbed the soul fragments of the Soul Devour Insects' corpses, it screeched and charged forward.

"So fast!"

In an instant, it had arrived in front of Lin Moyu, and its giant insect legs slashed as if weapons, unleashing tremendous force, flinging the nearby skeletons away, dealing them some damage.

The giant insect landed on Lin Moyu, and the Bone Armor burst forth with brilliant white light, blocking its attacks.

After reaching level 30, Bone Armor provided defense equivalent to 120,000 points in physique. The Soul Devour Insect King couldn't break through it right away.

Lin Moyu stood his ground, taking its attacks head-on.

"It finally came down."

This was what he had been waiting for.

Red light flashed. Skill: Damage Curse!

Skill: Corpse Explosion!

The corpses of the Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind class users detonated one after another. Seeing as it had been a while since they died, the corpses had lost most of their health.

But that was better than nothing. And after the curse's boost, the power of Corpse Explosion was still considerable.

The Soul Devour Insect King, obviously hurt by the explosions, screeched in pain without stop.

Just then, its entire body glowed, and all its eyes turned toward Lin Moyu.

Skill: Soul Devour!

Lin Moyu felt a force erupt on him, seemingly trying to pull him forward. But then the Bone Armor shone brightly, cutting off the force.

The Bone Armor was once again heavily damaged. However, Lin Moyu quickly reapplied it. The Bone Armor, as if a cheat item, firmly protected Lin Moyu.

Soul Devour was a group attack skill, affecting the skeletons as well. Their soul fires flickered violently, and their movements paused for an instant.

But that was it. Everything returned to normal after that. The skeletons' souls could not be devoured, rendering Soul Devour useless.

The Soul Devour Insect King was enraged and continued to attack like crazy. When the corpses finished detonating, the Soul Devour Insect King was merely injured, not dead.

Its level was high, and it was a boss monster, so its health was extremely formidable.

Regarding the wounds on its body, many Soul Devour Insects crawled out, repairing the wounds at a breakneck speed. The devoured Soul Devour Insects unexpectedly were able to heal the Soul Devour Insect King's wounds.

Meanwhile, the Skeletal Warriors and Skeletal Mages had already taken action. The Skeletal Warriors jumped onto its body one by one.

The Skeletal Warriors were supposed to use the barbs covering the Soul Devour Insect King's body as handholds for climbing, but when they climbed on top of it, they found that things were completely different.

The barbs opened up like flowers and split into numerous small barbs, knocking the Skeletal Warriors back down.

It was troublesome, very troublesome. If the Skeletal Warriors couldn't climb up, they wouldn't be able to exert much of their combat power.

With determination in his heart, Lin Moyu decided to use the Skeletal Mages to grind it down.

The Soul Devour Insect King's most powerful move was Soul Devour, dealing massive damage to souls. In fact, it was similar to Soul Blaze, in that it couldn't be defended against.

This was also the Soul Devour Insect King's most terrifying aspect. Unfortunately, this move was ineffective against Lin Moyu.

Other than that, the Soul Devour Insect King wasn't as powerful as he had imagined. This was especially true when facing his undead legions.

Lin Moyu willed, and eight more Lich Generals appeared.

Consequently, 10 undead legions, a total of 2,000 Skeletal Warriors and 1,000 Skeletal Mages surrounded the Soul Devour Insect King.

The Lich Generals received Lin Moyu's instructions. Subsequently, the Skeletal Mages unleashed their skills, and magic spells completely engulfed the Soul Devour Insect King. The Skeletal Warriors surrounded the Soul Devour Insect King and took turns using their skills.

Red light filled the sky.

Skill: Slow Curse!

The Soul Devour Insect King's movements slowed down immediately.

Lin Moyu wasn't going to give it a chance to escape.

Soul Blaze burned brightly. The Soul Devour Insect King was skilled in soul attacks, and Lin Moyu was just as skilled. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Firelight fell, and the Soul Devour Insect King let out deafening screeches. The grating noise set off sound waves once again, as if threatening to pierce through eardrums. But the Bone Armor blocked the sound waves.

The Skeletal Warriors were knocked back by the sound waves. But then the Lich Generals waved their staves and cast a skill.

Skill: Nullify!

In the blink of an eye, the abnormal statuses of the skeletons were dispelled. At the same time, the skeletons were protected from being affected by abnormal statuses for a few minutes.

The Soul Devour Insect King's 36 insect legs danced wildly, constantly attacking the Skeletal Warriors. However, the Skeletal Warriors' attributes weren't low either, and so it was unable to one-shot them.

The Lich Generals' Legion Heal was very powerful, enabling the Skeletal Warriors to attack the opponent without restraint.

Soul attacks were ineffective, while physical attacks posed no threat to the skeletons.

Subjected to the attacks of 1,000 Skeletal Mages and 2,000 Skeletal Warriors, the Soul Devour Insect King fell into a disadvantage, sustaining increasingly severe injuries.

All of a sudden, the Soul Devour Insect King spread its wings and took off.

Was it trying to run? Lin Moyu didn't think it was time for it to flee just yet.

In midair, it glowed brightly, the light forming a protective barrier that blocked the Skeletal Mages' magic spells.

At the same time, the health it had lost was rapidly being restored, and its form began to change. The 36 insect legs retracted and changed into arms and legs.

The Soul Devour Insect King stood upright, transforming into humanoid form, and the barbs on its body retracted and became like armor.

Lin Moyu frowned. The Soul Devour Insect King's aura had changed. It seemed to have transformed into a whole new monster.

Detection flew out.
