Reborn: Super God of War

Chapter 591: I Will Marry You

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The special mechanism and powerful skills of the Ice Queen made her a powerful Boss to deal with for all sorts of teams. What Fat Cattle had done, using an AOE skill to hit the Ice Shards, had never been tried in Lin Jie’s previous life.

No, more accurately speaking, perhaps someone might have thought of this same method before. However, the problem lay in who could manipulate the paths of the Ice Shards that accurately? Both the people who maneuvered the Ice Shards and those who needed to strike it down must not commit any single mistake in their actions.

No matter what, it was true that Lin Jie had never heard of anyone using such a method before in his previous life.

One should not be deceived by how easy it seemed for Lin Jie to flick the Ice Shard towards Domestic Fat Cattle. What was required of him was not just the micro-skill Feint—at the same time, he had to divert 70% of his attention to Baili Changcheng. After all, Baili Changcheng did not have the ability to match up to Lin Jie’s skills now, so he had to be the one to match Baili Changcheng’s skills.

Both of them needed to coordinate quickly to send exactly two Ice Shards in front of Fat Cattle. In addition, Fat Cattle needed to exhibit his skill perfectly. Only by doing so would both Ice Shards be shattered completely.

“Sure!” replied Baili Changcheng, who also used the Feint skill to send the Ice Shards flying along Fat Cattle’s way. At the same time, the shard which Lin Jie aimed at Fat Cattle arrived. This series of actions seemed like perfect coordination between two experts—both had the same temperaments, and there was no need for any exchange of words between them!

Completing this set of actions made Baili Changcheng rather proud secretly. He was one of the few experts among the Elemental Sword Artist job. From what he perceived, although he was still not as great as Lin Jie with regards to equipment, he seemed not far apart in terms of his skills!

-20!

-40!

With an awesome continuous shot, Childe hit two Ice Shards. At the same time, Fat Cattle also struck down two Ice Shards.

‘Eh?’ Baili was somewhat shocked. Where did the second piece of Ice Shard that Fat Cattle hit come from? He looked at Lin Jie’s actions and suddenly had an epiphany. Lin Jie was dealing out his strikes smoothly, just like normal. A single gust of Wind Rider Blade Aura blocked a far away Ice Shard. At that moment, he called off the Blade Aura abruptly, and held up Broken Blade in front of his chest horizontally, hence stopping a nearer Ice Shard in front of him. Meanwhile, the wings behind his back also controlled a third Ice Shard’s direction. When the three pieces fell into the same path, he then passed them on to Fat Cattle.

With these actions, Fat Cattle was able to have 50% success rates in striking down the Ice Shards accurately! After all, all those Ice Shards, which were moving in haphazard directions, were now brought into a straight path—how difficult would it be to hit them?

Meanwhile, when Baili Changcheng was directing the Ice Shards, one of the pieces would always be around where Childe was aiming his arrows, and hence was shot down by him.

‘We are not coordinating with one another—he was the one who’s taking the bulk of the work, and trying to complement us!’ Baili Changcheng noted in awe secretly. He thus adjusted his attitude and concentrated intently on his actions.

In a short while, the 50 Ice Shards from the Ice Queen’s first round of attacks were turned to dust. She suffered 1,280 points of total damage, which was 280 points higher than the originally predicted damage amount!

“Nice,” complimented Lin Jie. He was steady in his breath, but on the other hand, Childe, Baili, and Fat Cattle were all panting heavily. All the other team members immediately crowded around them to send their regards.

“Fat Cattle’s so awesome!”

“Childe was really accurate, and it was really hard on Baili too.”

Baili let out an awkward smile. “Lone Wolf’s the one who’s really taking the bulk of the work.”

“Is it? He doesn’t look like it.” Bu Yi chuckled as she threw a look at Lin Jie.

At that moment, the Ice Queen’s second attack wave reached!

It was the Ice Piton Spur, whereby an Ice Piton would appear randomly and hit a target, followed up by three or six times more of the same attack!

In Lin Jie’s previous life, he had heard countless complaints about this disgusting skill. After the Ice Piton managed to hit a target, that area where the player was previously standing on would literally be transformed into a miniature bramble field. The hit target would then be penetrated with the following Ice Pitons... Worst, the Damage Dealt by hitting the Ice Pitons was not as high as hitting the Ice Shards. Hitting one Ice Piton would only take away two of the Boss’ health points. As such, many guilds would rather face a Restricted Curse than to handle these 10 minutes’ worth of attacks.

Yet now, things were different.

Mixed Breathless activated Bull Power, Life Growl, and Strong Physique buffs, stepping directly into the Ice Queen’s attack area. The Ice Piton Spur skill immediately fired off, and within the blink of an eye, it shot Mixed Breathless up high into the sky. Countless Ice Pitons followed after this attack.

-193!

-264!

Mixed Breathless’ health bar decreased by 2/3 in that instant. Truth to be said, the damage brought about the dense crowd of Ice Pitons was indeed fearsome.

Bang!

With an order from Lin Jie, all sorts of attacks were blasted at the Ice Pitons! Arrows, spells, and Blade Auras covered the whole place. The Ice Pitons’ weakness lay at their roots, and each Ice Piton had 2,000 health points. However, this was nothing to be worried about with the powerful damage output by the team! The Ice Queen’s health bar decreased by 600 points immediately, but the Ice Piton Spur attack had not ended—this meant that the Savage Blade team’s turn to deplete the monster’s health bar had not ended yet! In almost no time, the Ice Queen’s health bar got depleted until around only 30%.

Lin Jie had definitely not predicted such high efficiency.

The Ice Queen’s special attack mechanism and her first Ice Shard skill would mislead a majority of the player teams. Moreover, now was the period for many players to try to level up. As such, many players would rather attack the Boss in a slow, but steady and conservative manner.

Players would most probably be flooded with pessimistic thoughts like, ‘What if we did not hit target/commit a mistake’, etc. This resulted in many of them following the rules and progressing the dungeon bit by bit, unlike how the Savage Blade team was violently blasting their way through now.

However, one must dare to try out their ideas!

To be very honest, this time round, Domestic Fat Cattle had indeed made a huge contribution. Lin Jie wanted to take down this dungeon very much, and as such, he was overly cautious and lost all thoughts of experimenting. If not for Fat Cattle’s idea, he would not be inspired to think of a better way to complete this dungeon.

The Ice Queen’s health bar was now left with only 2,000 points! The rapid rate of deteriorating made her feel threatened, and she started pleading in a sweet but sickly voice, “Brave men... Please save me. I am the daughter of the City of Light’s Duke. Should you save me from the Ice, I will marry you, and become your Follower, giving you all that I have!”

Ding~

—’The Ice Queen pleas for you to help her...’

“Wth, marry me when you are so ugly?”

“Oh, just finish her off quickly!”

“I feel like puking.”

It was actually all the better that the Boss kept her mouth shut. Once she spoke, she suffered even greater attacks!

One should not underestimate the comment by the Ice Queen. After all, she had the intelligence of a human being, and at the last minute, she would resort to such trickery to tempt the players.

As long as the players did not make any decision after one second of seeing the choice, the Boss would presume that they had been successfully seduced, and hence turn them into her puppets. All those being transformed would be given a boost of 20 times their current stats, but they would start attacking their own teammates. This was a really sinister Subvert-type skill.

If Lin Jie had not made Qiu Yuan and Gray Wind curse the Ice Queen previously and retained her ravishing looks, all male players in the team would probably have been seduced. After all, they would have been facing an extremely beautiful girl pleading for help imploringly—how could any normal guys resist it?

This was the reason why the system created the Boss to be such a sexy and good-looking female. Under normal circumstances, male players would make up 80% of a team, and almost 95% of male players would be interested in a beautiful girl. As such, once the male players had been seduced, it would mean that almost half of the team members had been controlled.

Yet this Boss was definitely a tragic figure, for she was facing the Savage Blade team. After being blasted with countless curses, she was even uglier than the Undead or Rotting Corpses. Her sickly-sweet voice just topped it off and made her even more disgusting. In no time, she was being reduced to ashes.

“But why...” murmured the Ice Queen as she vanished with her sinful Ice Crown.

Ding~.

—”Your team has killed the Ice Queen. You receive 2,000,000 EXP and 500 Guild of Light Reputation Points.”

—”Congratulations, you have leveled up to Level 60. You receive 5 Free Stat Points, 2 Fixed Stat Points, and 1 Speciality Point.”

“Congrats.”

“Congrats, Leader!”

Everyone laughed heartily.

“Ziliang, search the corpse,” commented Lin Jie.

Zheng Ziliang rubbed his hands as he walked over. The next moment, the whole team heard cling-clang noises.

The Boss had spawned three Dark Gold items and 13 Gold items! Other than that, there were also three Gems, a treasure map, and a lot of other materials spawned.

As the Ice Queen was a Boss to be tackled by a team, she would naturally spawn lots of quality items! Out of the three Dark Gold items, two were specialty items from the Ice Castle, and the remaining one was a snowflake ring made from crystal-like clear ice.

[Snow Ring] (Dark Gold)

Item Description: Required Level 60. This was the ring being worn by the Ice Queen before. All creatures within the Ice Castle would be fearful of this ring.

Strength: +50

Endurance: +50

Additional effects: Frozen, Trap in Ice.

[Frozen]: All your attacks will have a 15% chance of freezing your target for 2 seconds.

[Trap in Ice]: You command Ice to trap your target, and hence stunning them for 1 second or making them suffer the Speed Decrease effects for 5 seconds. Cooldown: 10 minutes.

This was a ring with excellent Crowd Control abilities. However, it was not complete. This ring would complement the rest of the items being spawned.

[Snow Gem]: Gem. It can only be engraved on the equipment of Gold or higher.

Item Attributes: It will increase Ice-Resistance points, and give your attacks a 2% chance of freezing your target. If used together with the Snow Ring, it will increase the Snow Ring’s additional effects by 100%. Meanwhile, the Snow Gem’s effects will also be increased by 100%.

There were a total of three Snow Gems, and all could be engraved upon the Snow Ring! Other than that, the treasure map [The Queen’s Incomplete Memory Treasure Map] also made up part of the set, and the treasure spot seemed very close to where the team was now.

Following that, the Savage Blade team cleared off two Ice Half-Centaur troops and reached the spot. During the journey, they managed to get a small silkworm. This was the Snow Silkworm, which was a very rare Potionery material. It also was part of the Snow Ring set.

After supplementing the three Snow Gems and Snow Silkworm with the Snow Ring, there was a drastic change in the Snow Ring’s attributes.

[Snow Ring] (Dark Gold)

Item Description: Required Level 50. This was the ring being worn by the Ice Queen before. It had the dignity of royalty.

Health bar: +300

Mana: +300

Strength: +70

Endurance: +70

Ice Resistance: +60

Additional effects: Ice Armor, Frozen, Trap in Ice

[Ice Armor]: You receive 100 Defense Points, while Damage Reduction is increased by 10%. When you face Ice-type attacks, you will enjoy an additional 10% Damage Reduction.

Everyone was so shocked that they let out gasps of excitement—these were way over the normal Dark Gold equipment’s attributes! Putting asides the 300 Mana Points, the 60 Ice Resistance Points alone were enough to scare off people! After all, the normal Resistance-type of equipment on the markets now could only increase one’s Resistance by five of 10 points only. As such, powerful MTs would have to own many sets of the respective Resistance-type armors, and all of them would only achieve what the Snow Ring could do by itself.

At the current stage of the game, 60 Ice Resistance Points could resist 50% or more Ice-type attacks.

Besides, the Snow Ring still had the Ice Armor effect, a superb Defense-type skill. With it, anyone could become the bane of Ice Mages!

“Old Shield, you and Breathless use this.” Lin Jie threw the ring over to The Heavenly Shield and mentioned, “The Snow Ring can be used interchangeably among players. Later the both of you share it among yourselves and aim to get the lowest damage for the team.”

The Heavenly Shield did not fake any pretenses and took over the ring immediately. He asked, “This means that there’s use for this ring later?”

“Yes. If not, the system would not give us this ring after what we have gone through,” commented Lin Jie jovially. “Don’t be too stunned by its attributes. In time to come, this will be a normal, everyday top-grade piece of equipment you see on the streets.”

“However everyday it gets, it is still top-grade equipment! Just look at how iPhane 60 is becoming an everyday object now, despite its recent release!” Qiu Yuan rolled her eyes.
