Reborn: Super God of War

Chapter 135: Hero Mode

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The first wave of Spellcaster of Light took 11 minutes to clear!

Everyone sat on the ground and bit on loaves of bread to recover.

“Guys, try this.” Bu Yi took out a bag of white fruits and distributed it.

[Forest Fruit]: Food. Recovers 1,500 mana in 20 seconds. After chewing for more than 20 seconds, a bonus 3 Spirit will be granted for 10 minutes. (Chewing time: Eating while sitting on the ground without other actions.)

The food was cheap and had a good recovery effect. It was much cost-efficient compared to potions. Some players would save their budget and only use food to recover, keeping potions for a critical time.

Food as such that could boost the attributes was rare.

The bonus spirit was a waste on physical classes. Qiu Yuan, Dejected Night, Innocent Killer and Bu Yi were all chewing on the fruit.

Lin Jie looked at them and coughed. He said, “My mouth is a little dry.”

Just as Bu Yi was about to give him the fruit, Qiu Yuan smiled secretly and threw him a bag of water. “Go on, drink it. We have plenty more.”

Lin Jie, “...”

“Humph. Trying to flirt with my woman?” Qiu Yuan hugged Bu Yi and chewed on the fruits while laughing.

After the recovery, the team went on. The monsters in Shadow were not very strong. As long as the equipment was good and there were no big mistakes, it could be cleared easily.

With a strong puller like Unexpected Childe in the team, the pressure was even smaller. All the Shadow Walkers were pulled away by him, and the rest only had to focus on the Spellcaster of Light.

As the small monsters in the main mission dungeon, Spellcaster of Light would drop [Broken Badge] other than silver equipment. 15 Broken Badges could be forged into a Light Badge that could be used to gain points, EXP, coins, or rare items.

As the team advanced, the army of Shadow Walkers pulled by Unexpected Childe grew to more than 200. When they finally faced the Boss Light Spellcaster, there were more than 500 of them! It was a huge challenge to a hunter with so many Shadow Walkers behind!

Every step he took, he must calculate the route of the monsters. It was extremely difficult for him to land in the right place. Even Lin Jie himself could not do better.

Light Spellcaster Eire was a classic western beauty. She had blond hair, blue eyes, and a great figure. Her eyes were enchanting indeed.

[Light Spellcaster Eire]: Level 15 Overlord, HP: 120,000

“All the team exploring Belief Church are stuck at the first Boss,” Zheng Ziliang opened the files and said seriously, “But, some team managed to enrage her, and they got wiped out by her rage skills and passives.”

“Now, they are taking it to the extreme. The team had many high crit classes like bandits and hunters. Although it was not very stable, if they caused critical hits many times, the first Boss could be killed that way.”

“The team from Dark-Robed Knights had beat the Boss to 5%. But the passive skills recovered 50% of the HP.”

Lin Jie nodded and said, “Unexpected, bring the Shadow Walkers here.”

“Sure!” Unexpected Childe brought his ‘followers’ in a big loop and approached Eire.

Netherblue’s eyes lit up, and she said, “Fu Sheng, these monsters could help us hit Eire?’

Lin Jie shook his head. “Nope, they can enhance Eire’s ability. Light Spellcaster Eire will devour all of them, and then we will enter Hero Mode with Eire’s attribute doubled and 45% more control effect.”

Everyone was rendered speechless... They would think that Lin Jie went nuts had they not known him.

“Bro, we don’t need to enter Hero Mode, do we?” Dejected Night glanced at everyone and said with a puzzled voice, “The most important thing now is to get the first killing.”

“Nope, we will get the first killing of the Hero Mode.” Lin Jie shook his head.

“Jie, I also feel the same way.” Zheng Ziliang frowned. “The first kill is more important.”

Mixed Breathless said in a deep voice, “I think we should do the stable way.”

Qiu Yuan added, “Fu Sheng, don’t get too extreme. We could get the first killing then go for Hero Mode, right?”

Bu Yi looked at Lin Jie and said softly, “I’m on your side.”

That was true indeed. The first kill was the most important thing for now. Everyone was standing in front of Light Spellcaster Eire. Whoever killed it first would get a huge boost in fame.

But Lin Jie cared more about skill points!

In The New Age, for skills to level up proficiency was required. All of Lin Jie’s skills were only level 3, with proficiency up to 100,000. Even if he trained days and nights, he would take more than a year to level them up.

Players could easily level their skills to the third level. But to reach the fourth, it was extremely difficult!

In Lin Jie’s previous life, for seven straight years, his Forward Charge had only reached level 6! With 1 skill point, it could level up straightaway!

There were 4 Bosses in Belief Church. 1 skill point would be rewarded only after both of the dungeon’s criteria were fulfilled — First Clear and Hero Mode.

Right then, the Eire moved! She did not care about the internal conflicts of the enemy. She cast a dark hexagram, and the Shadow Walkers behind Unexpected Childe went flying towards her... Her white robe changed into a black color, and her face changed like a dead zombie.

[Light Spellcaster Eire]: Level 15 Enhanced Overlord, HP: 240,000

“Get ready!” yelled Lin Jie.

“What... what a bad temper!” Qiu Yuan stepped angrily on the ground.

Water scratched his head, smiled wryly, and said, “Since the expert says go, then we go!”

Forward Charge!

Forward Charge!

Mixed Breathless said no more and had his defensive stance ready.

Forward Charge!

Eire was now back facing the team, so Mixed Breathless used the Shield Strikes to drew the aggro.

Since it had already happened, they should be thinking of solutions instead of complaining! Since they believed that Lin Jie had his reasons, then they just had to do it!

Netherblue took out her Explosive Longsword and used Forward Charge with Lin Jie. Behind Eire, Star Kill’s poison-coated dagger flashed as it went into her head!

“Challenger! You will regret this!” A small ray of light glimmered above Eire’s palm.

Star Kill’s pupils constricted, and he quickly kicked on Eire’s stomach.

Interruption skill, Kick!

Interruption failed!

“Eire is immune to interruption, brace for impact!” shouted Mixed Breathless.

Boom—

The Flare exploded! The sudden typhoon hit towards the team!

“Power Word Shield!” chanted Bu Yi in a squeamish voice.

Everyone was immediately covered in the glowing Power Word Shield. The Flare from the Eire was blocked by it.

Bu Yi’s mana was drained by half in an instant. She drank a Slow Restoring Mana Potion and used quick-click to cast the Power Word Shield on three people.

The Power Word Shield’s defense value was about 270. Facing the Enhanced Overlord,, it should instantly break, but due to the Light Enchanted Scrolls’ augmentation, the received damage was significantly reduced. Thus, the shield could take the entire hit. When the shield was damaged, it could be restored to full by using another Power Word Shield.

Coupled with the quick-click method, the efficiency was tripled, and the mana cost was reduced by three times.

The quick-click was a must-know technic for the Ascetic Priest. The best Ascetic Priest in Lin Jie’s previous life could do nine clicks!

“Damage!”

The aggro was steady for now. Arrows and magic spells were sent towards Eire, dealing lots of damage.

The moment Eire’s HP fell below 20% of its max, she raised her right hand, and the passive skill Light Protect was triggered! The skill recovered 50,000 HP, so she instantly regained her full health.

“Continue!” yelled Lin Jie yelled.

The Broken Blade went for Eire’s heart, but she avoided it easily. Eire had high intelligence, and she would protect her weak parts.

The team carried on and continued attacking.

Eire’s HP fell below 20% again, so she used Light Protect! This time was worse, as 80,000 HP was recovered, and all the excess HP was converted to shield.

Qiu Yuan could not take it anymore, and she howled, “How can we ever beat her? Fu Sheng, unless we can insta-kill her, we will lose. We can’t drag the fight!”

Eire’s healing effect was much stronger in Hero Mode. Not only would it get triggered at 20% HP loss, but also the excess HP would be converted to shield. The terrible passive skills had wiped out the team’s hope.

They would eventually lose!

“Continue,” said Lin Jie in a low voice.

“You...” Qiu Yuan was about to explode from anger, but Bu Yi stopped her. “He will give up if he can’t beat her. I will blame him with you later. Focus for now.”

As time passed, Eire’s HP did not drop, and her shield became thicker and thicker! It had almost reached 500,000!

How to beat it?

“I’m... I’m out of mana!” shouted Bu Yi.

When Eire healed for the tenth time, everyone was on the verge of giving up.

Boom—

Eire cast Flare again, dealing 180 points in damage to everyone. After 2 seconds, another Flare was cast.

“Fu Sheng, we will be wiped out like this,” said Mixed Breathless. “You guys go first.”

Eire’s infinite heal and shield, as well as her AOE damage every two seconds, was already a problem to them. It would be worse if she used Wrath of Heaven and her rage skills!

“Be tortured!” Eire gathered Flare in her hand again.

Mixed Breathless would be killed anytime soon!

Although knowing that it would be useless, Star Kill still used a Kick on Eire’s stomach!

The Flare disappeared!

Interruption success!
