I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 1111: Dark Rising’s Unfavorable Campaign
Previously on I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second...
This is completely illogical.
If you were holding a weapon that could dominate the world, would you let it rot in your hands or allow it to fulfill its value? Any normal person would know how to choose.
The bounty to defeat the Four Great Corpse Kings is the will of the Three Realms and Six Paths. To put it bluntly, it’s a will even stronger than the Celestial Dao. The rewards for completing this task are unimaginable.
Even if it’s not for the task’s rewards, the idea of having the Four Great Corpse Kings at one’s disposal is enticing enough. Lin Yi, who usually fights alone, has no reason not to consider this.
Luo Bingxin hovered above the battlefield, expressionless as she watched the Four Great Corpse Kings massacre and slaughter indiscriminately, crushing the Dark Rising Organization single-handedly.
Hekong and Blood Dance were indeed among the Seven Heroes, and their combat power was top-notch in the Three Realms and Six Paths. But when facing the Four Great Corpse Kings, all they could feel was deep helplessness.
Attacks that were nearly unstoppable usually had little effect on the Four Great Corpse Kings.
Not even the shield surrounding the Four Great Corpse Kings could be breached.
This is an actual World Boss.
The slightly stronger fighters could retreat while fighting to save their lives, but the less powerful ones didn’t even have a chance to escape.
"Come quickly, Tremble, we can barely hold on!"
Once the information system was repaired, everything indeed became more convenient.
When Hekong and Blood Dance used their Dark Rising Rings, they could broadcast the battlefield situation in real-time to Tremble, allowing Tremble to make correct decisions instantly.
However, to Tremble, it seemed better if the information system hadn’t been repaired.
Such a horrific battle situation transmitted to the Dark Rising information system could discourage the other members.
Anyone with a bit of intelligence knows what outcome leads to facing such terrifying opponents as the Four Great Corpse Kings. Members of the Dark Rising with mediocre abilities would be crushed ruthlessly.
Excluding the two heroes and other strong Dark Rising members, the remaining members weren’t even there to face the World Boss; they were merely providing nourishment for disappointment to the Four Great Corpse Kings.
When the Four Great Corpse Kings caught a Dark Rising member, they would directly snap the person’s neck. That person wouldn’t even have time to use Divine Power or Taichu to heal their injuries before being drained dry by the Corpse Kings.
"Tremble, are you listening? Do you have any better battle plans now?"
Hekong’s urgent voice brought Tremble’s thoughts back.
Now he understood one thing; the appearance of the Four Great Corpse Kings at the Dark Rising Headquarters wasn’t accidental. It must have been the plot of that cunning Immortal King using the brainless Luo Bingxin.
Given the current situation, the Four Great Corpse Kings are the mountain the Dark Rising Organization has to overcome. Even if Tremble wanted to abandon rescuing Hekong and the others, it’s no longer possible.
The Four Great Corpse Kings are something Dark Rising must face sooner or later. Instead of being passive when the time comes, it’s better to gather all forces now and seal the Four Great Corpse Kings away.
"We’ll reach the battlefield in about ten minutes; hold on a bit longer. Once we arrive, we’ll seal the Corpse Kings together."
After replying, Tremble began to issue orders.
The document detailing the Four Great Corpse Kings was sent to all members who possessed the Dark Rising Ring.
The Eastern War God had already arrived at the battlefield.
He and his men were hiding in the shadows, observing the entire battlefield situation, and understanding the situation clearly. His admiration for the Immortal King reached its peak.
Most of the time, the Immortal King appeared approachable, even bully-able. He tolerated the leaders of various Divine Beings acting wantonly under his nose. Over time, members from various factions even started to believe the Immortal King was easy to bully.
Only those Divine Beings close to the Immortal King knew how terrifying he truly was.
With just a few tricks, he could make his two enemies fight each other, reaping the benefits as a bystander. What a brilliant tactic!
At this moment, the Eastern War God even began to anticipate the confrontation between Dark Rising and the Four Great Corpse Kings, wondering what the final result would be.
The cold of the undead continuously corroded the bodies and minds of the Dark Rising members.
The pervasive chill could only be resisted by channeling Taichu or Divine Power, which was a significant drain. Over time, the speed and momentum of the Dark Rising members began to falter.
In contrast, the Four Great Corpse Kings, with their infinite stamina, grew more ferocious in their killing, the bloody scent in the air greatly stimulating their bloodthirsty instincts.
No member of Dark Rising considered retreating, even with the disparity in strength.
They knew the impact of this battle on Dark Rising.
They also understood that this battle would be recorded by the rings they carried. If they faltered, it would be impossible for Dark Rising to regain its former glory.
Experts of the Fire Element fully mobilized their Divine Powers, condensing terrifyingly hot suns in the sky, which they then hurled down, hoping to leverage the elemental counteraction to inflict damage on the Four Great Corpse Kings.
Unfortunately, the fire attack he was so proud of turned out to be a joke in front of the Drought Demon.
The terrifyingly high temperature was glaringly obvious, even on the chaotic battlefield.
Among the Four Great Corpse Kings, only the fire-attribute female Drought Demon bothered to glance at the move, while the other three continued fighting and consuming the blood essence of Dark Rising powerhouses.
The nine Fireballs in the sky, resembling nine suns, upon appearing, greatly suppressed the chilling aura of the battlefield.
"I’ll help you!"
An old man wielding a staff, bent over, watching his teammate fight so vigorously, didn’t idle. He abruptly thrust his staff into the ground, linking his Divine Power and Taichu to the earth.
From the moment the old man exerted his power, his shriveled muscles unexpectedly regained youthful fullness, and the entire planet began to tremble in response, as if echoing the old man’s enthusiasm.
"Among the countless living beings in these Three Realms and Six Paths, how did creatures like you come to exist? Today, even if it costs me everything, I must cooperate with my teammates to leave these four scourges here forever, paving a wide path for my Dark Rising army to overthrow the rule of All Gods!"
"Rise!"
With the old man’s shout, the earth began to rumble.
Huge, round stone pillars rose beneath his staggering teammates, lifting them into the sky, temporarily removing them from the Corpse Kings’ sight.
Whenever the Corpse Kings attempted to pursue, giant stone hands would emerge from the ground, continuously slapping down towards the location of the Four Great Corpse Kings.
Meanwhile, the stones would transform into various weapons or tools, used to attack or restrict the actions of the Four Great Corpse Kings.
"Brothers, let’s attack together and break their defense!"
With the old man fully committing, the momentum of the Dark Rising Organization seemed to return.
"Old timer, I’ll help you!"
Hekong suddenly exerted himself, charging into the sky and spreading his wings beneath the nine suns before rapidly spinning.
