YM778.TV Chapter 25
He would first run through the area to lure the monsters, reach the designated location, start clearing the room with AOE, and finally run to the next floor...
The only difference was...
The designated point to trap the monsters into. The first floor has the narrow canyon, while the second floor has a wide room. Due to its vast layout, killing them would be more difficult. Not to mention that the hallways and corridors would be teeming with Goblins patrolling the area.
Fortunately, Lin Ye already came prepared. He had researched and learned the Goblins’ habits and their movement patterns.
Even to the point of knowing when the moment these Goblins stuck out their butts, he knew what they were going to sh*t.
As he completed the area, his mind was racing along with him. He managed to optimize his time down to five minutes and found a more “brainless” and safe route for other challengers to use.
This other plan could ensure the annoying Goblin Soldiers would not surround the challenger while they were luring the other monsters.
Without noticing, he was already on the third floor...
Similar to the second floor, the area was filled with narrow corridors and winding staircases, but the most significant difference was that the Goblins here were densely packed. And there are traps strewn all over the dungeon, from Earth Spike traps to hidden arrows, which is a challenge to predict.
However, this still wasn’t a problem for Lin Ye.
After comparing the research notes he found and creating a series of simulations and improvements in his mind, not only did he find a way to reduce the time required to lure the monsters, but he also ensured that he would not be surrounded by the goblins and step on as few traps as possible.
After all, the Hp loss from stepping on traps could be recovered with a few bottles of health potions.
However, if he were to be surrounded by goblins at the same time, he would waste a lot of time and probably exceed the time limit for the third floor, which of course, would affect the final score ...
After that, he reached Goblin Underground City’s fourth floor.
This last area required the “quick kill monster gathering” strategy.
This was the most straightforward area he had been in so far. All he had to do was run in a straight line, and when he reached the bronze gate for the next floor, he would use his AOE skills to kill the Goblin Giants and the mobs guarding the entrance.
Because it was so simple and worked splendidly, there was nothing else to improve on.
The Boss’ guardian, the Goblin Giant, is the most challenging and time-consuming thing on this floor. Lin Ye focused all his might on attacking the creature and wit to think of a way to efficiently get around his skills’ cooldown time, hopefully killing them off faster.
For other challengers… it will be a different story.
This was an extremely complicated task. Even when he was planning for himself, it was enough of a challenge, let alone thinking of the different variables and skills other players have that would affect the making of the plan. He could feel many of his brain cells dying just from the thought of it, and even then, he might not even be able to find the best solution for everyone.
However, as a gaming bigshot, Lin Ye was already used to this kind of thing.
‘
It’s a matter of decreasing its Hp, isn’t it?
‘
‘
It’s simple!
‘
He’ll have to put his theory to the test now, would he?
After Lin Ye played with the Goblin Giant like he was playing with a monkey for about seven minutes, the Goblin giant was finally free from its suffering and was sent to heaven with a Reversed Healing Spell.
Lin Ye also figured out the weakness of this three-meter tall guy.
It wore a lot of furs which were weak to fire. It has a big body with a clear weak spot like all men. So all he had to do was…
Hammer its third leg.
…
‘
Okay, I’ve cleared the first four floors.
‘
‘
All that’s left is the final Boss battle.
‘
With that thought, Lin Ye slowly pushed open the five-meter-tall bronze door in front of him and stepped in confidently. Then, he was devoured by the black-like portal, and everything around him was distorted.
The scene changed, and Lin Ye arrived at the last floor of the Goblin dungeon, the Goblin Palace.
And the sight that greeted him was the Goblin King, sitting high on its iron throne.
The Goblin King was three meters tall, wore golden armor, held a golden spear, and was muscular. The red cloak on its back made him look domineering. It completely contrasts the malnourished Ordinary Goblins despite the rewards they hoard all day.
[Name: Goblin King]
[Level: 5]
[Qualification: Gold ★★★★★]
[Skills: Earthquake, Dragon Spear, Morale Boost, Fly, Rage, Muscle Contraction, Summon Goblin Army...]
[Description: The dungeon Lord has excellent strength and terrifying attack power. Its movement speed is slightly slow, but with its solid muscles and hard golden armor, as well as its Golden Spear with an extensive attack range. It doesn’t care about the disadvantage of slow speed. When it meets an enemy, it aims to kill them with one shot.]
“Human! You dare to trespass my–”
‘I’m sorry, I’m in a hurry. Can you die immediately?
‘
‘
Reversal Healing Spell!
‘
Boom!
[Prompt: Used Reverse Healing Spell on Goblin King. Caused 98 points of reverse damage!]
“Damn it...”
The Goblin King stood up angrily from its iron throne, furious that someone had interrupted it. It raised its spear and jumped into the air. Like a meteorite falling from the sky, it smashed towards Lin Ye’s body with unstoppable force.
‘
Incoming!
‘
Just as he predicted, the Goblin King would use a wide-range AOE skill at the start of the game!
The ground cracked!
It was theoretically possible to get out of its attack range, but it required a very high speed.
Other than agility-type Classes like Assassins and Archers, it was almost impossible for the other Classes to meet this requirement at level 5, even with the added attribute points.
Therefore, the best way to deal with this move was to immediately roll to the side, avoid the opponent’s landing point, and then quickly lie on the ground to reduce the second wave of damage that would sweep the entire field after it hits the ground.
If you choose to take the wave head-on, congratulations; you will lose at least two-thirds of your Hp.
If you were stubborn, didn’t even want to dodge the landing point, and wanted to take the Goblin King’s first shot...
Then that would be the end of you.
Just wait for the funeral.
Unfortunately, Lin Ye wasn’t an average person. He had a God-tier talent that could reverse all damage, so he didn’t need to use a standard way to deal with this move.
‘
Universe Reversal, activate!
‘
The ground shook as the spear first hit the ground.
[Lin Ye +1521 Hp!]
The second wave force hit the air!
[Lin Ye +479 Hp!]
‘
Eat my punch!
‘
Wam!
[The Goblin King’s Hp – 14]
[Knee Strike!]
Boom!
[The Goblin King’s Hp – 10]
‘
Reversed Healing!
‘
Boom!
[The Goblin King’s Hp – 98]
After finishing this set of attacks, Lin Ye immediately dodged and cleverly avoided the Goblin King’s horizontal slash. Then, he stood on the stone steps not far away and quietly watched as the final boss used “Summon Goblin Army.”
“My people! Heed my call, come here, and behead my enemies!”
Buzzzzzz!
With a dull sound, a six-pointed star array appeared on the floor in the center of the palace.
Then, under the golden light of the six-pointed star magic circle, twenty level 5 Goblins suddenly appeared on the battlefield and surrounded Lin Ye and the Goblin King.
Lin Ye glanced around and found that other than the goblins he battled before, two Goblin Priests could wield magic attacks. They were both 5-Star Silver level and were on par with the Goblin Giant that guarded the fourth floor.
It was challenging for people to kill these goblins. They were on the same level as a beginner-level boss. It was a challenge to engage with them in a one-on-one battle, let alone attack all of them at once.
And he had to capture their king, which was on a higher level than its minions.
It’s not surprising to hear that most people would give up on the last requirement and head straight to the dungeon’s exit behind the Goblin King’s iron throne.
The highest score you get if you decide to exit now is an S rank.
But... Lin Ye wasn’t an ordinary player.
He had already planned and calculated his every move for this dungeon.
‘
Lock on. Goblin King, Reverse Healing!
‘
“Go!”
