Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons
Chapter 898 - 776: Finale and Rewards
The protective shield in the sky that took a heavy strike.
Even though it was filled with cracks and about to shatter, it still stood firm.
Watching this scene.
Kane knew that all his previous worries were unnecessary.
The defense mechanism Facundo had set up on his own corpse was simply not something that could be cracked by anything below the tri-color level.
Unless one unlocks the defense mechanism by normal means.
To try and force it with violence, unless it's with tri-color level attack strength, otherwise, it's completely futile.
And Kane believed that with Facundo's level of protection over his own corpse, there would be other countermeasures at that level.
From the start to the end, these undead never had the slightest chance of obtaining this corpse.
Everything they did, even cutting off their own foothold in this world.
Defying the rules set by the Mist, launching massacres all around.
All these efforts were meaningless from the very beginning.
A kind of inexplicable sorrow.
Lucerne, upon hearing Kane's words, suddenly turned his head.
The black mist-like spiritual body began to burn and boil like flames.
His voice carried anger, as well as hysterical madness.
Roaringly asked, "You know, don't you? You know why this happened, don't you?"
"Tell me quickly, why is this?"
Looking at the near-crazy Lucerne, Kane shook his head in pity.
"What a pity, the protective shield broke not because you broke it, but because of your deaths."
Upon hearing Kane's words, Lucerne immediately figured it out.
He thought about the recent situations, recalling Facundo's personality. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"Damn Facundo, he was playing us all along."
Compared to Lucerne's madness, the pale and severely injured Mateo had already collapsed weakly on the ground.
As the weakest among the three undead, from the very beginning, he had little chance of getting the body.
The current scene only made him despair, even his soul dimmed.
"Ah, damn it all."
"Blood God! Let your child embrace your warmth!"
Mateo suddenly began to pray fervently.
A red light descended, and crimson flames burned fiercely upon Mateo.
Yet within those flames, an inappropriate expression of happiness and enjoyment appeared on his face.
Kreya frowned and wanted to step forward, but Kane stopped her.
Kane's eyes sparkled with golden light as he shook his head at Kreya: "It's dangerous, and he's beyond saving."
Divine Gaze warned Kane.
Don't touch, and you'll be fine.
Amidst the burning crimson flames, Mateo turned to ashes, scattering into the air.
"You all must die!"
Mateo's self-sacrifice did not affect him.
Lucerne's soul burned brightly, and he gripped the giant scythe, his body began to swell.
The gray robe on his body was instantly shredded, hanging in tatters over him.
Only then did everyone see his true form.
No different from an evil spirit on the outside.
The broken energy veins around, and the residual energy within, began to madly converge into him.
An all-or-nothing gamble.
"Going down together?"
"You are not qualified."
As Kane spoke, his whole body began to change dramatically.
A pair of dragon horns grew from the top of his head, and a slender, starry sky-like dragon tail grew from his tailbone.
The exaggerated form of Starlight Dragon enveloped Kane.
A massive Holy Grail appeared above Kane's head, tilting as a blue waterfall poured over him.
Immediately, Kane entered his most powerful state.
In this form, Kane's attacks resembled those of the tri-color.
Invincible gold.
The immense pressure made Lucerne, who was nearly mad, tremble, and even caused a sliver of calm in his soul.
"You were also playing with us all along?!"
He roared, charging in frenzy.
The collapse of reality and cruelty tore apart his last bit of calm.
Just then, Longbei, beside him, suddenly gulped down a potion.
The dual-colored spiral liquid flowed into his mouth.
Enhancing his body, giving his physique a new transformation.
His previously cumbersome body became agile.
Transforming his figure into a bolt of lightning.
The lightning flashed.
Boom!
A thunderous sound echoed in the air.
The figure trailing lightning, Longbei, slammed stubbornly into a distant wall.
"You little bastard! Enjoyed your time just now, huh? Want to run now?"
Longbei's figure maintained around 5 meters, his left hand suddenly expanded.
The huge palm pressed the Skeleton Monarch's skull, slamming it into the wall.
Taking advantage of the chaos, the Skeleton Monarch attempted to sneak away using his abilities.
But Longbei, who had been watching him closely, discovered it.
After irritating Longbei for so long, running was not an option.
So he decisively gulped down the potion he had every class.
Becoming the first field test subject for this potion.
The soul fire within the Skeleton Monarch's cranium burned fiercely, staring incredulously at Longbei who suddenly appeared beside him and asked.
"How is this possible, how could you be so fast?"
Too fast, as a thief, he couldn't even react.
If he was this fast back then, he wouldn't have been harassed without being able to retaliate.
Is it some strange rule?
Then why not use it earlier?
The Skeleton Monarch's head was filled with a thousand questions.
"Spare me, I'm willing…"
"Okay."
"Ah…?"
Just as the Skeleton Monarch was about to plead for mercy, Longbei agreed.
Which left the Skeleton Monarch, who had prepared countless pleas, momentarily speechless.
Before he could confirm, Longbei grabbed his head and tossed him aside.
"Come on! Let's play some more."
The Skeleton Monarch, who was smashed into another wall by Longbei, crawled up.
He twisted his bones, making a cracking sound.
"You said it, then I won't be polite."
Although the Skeleton Monarch has no dignity, Longbei's disrespect was too much.
He lifted his giant iron hammer, aiming it at Longbei.
Then suddenly vanished and ran outside.
Look down on me if you will, but survival is paramount.
After a brief performance, the Skeleton Monarch decisively opted for escape.
His actions were smooth and graceful, extremely skillful.
However, before he could smash through the wall and escape, a circle of black and white flames surrounded the entire space.
The hues of the black and white flames reflected upon everyone.
Having witnessed the power of these flames before, the Skeleton Monarch's figure materialized instantly, stopping in front of the blaze.
Then he turned around and rushed towards Longbei without hesitation.
Unable to escape, he'll die with dignity.
A fist wrapped in lightning met him.
It swiftly struck his skull.
Seeing his punch send the Skeleton Monarch flying, Longbei shook his fist.
"This feeling is fantastic!"
He couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Meizike floating in the sky.
Offering a strong endorsement of his potion.
Meizike merely nodded slightly, confident in the power of his potion.
A ghostly green figure was thrown over, but before Longbei could discern its shape...
A massive dragon tail like the starry sky appeared at the impact point, swatting it back again.
The figure flew back like a ball.
A black mist-like soul body was grabbed by Kane's starry dragon claw.
He looked at the evil spirit's head.
Kane shook his head regretfully.
"Weak."
"Is this your anger and discontent?"
The dragon claw exerted slight force.
Lucerne's evil spirit body exploded.
Turning into ghostly green starlight, scattering in the air.
"Apparently anger doesn't solve problems after all."
Observing Kane had taken care of it.
Longbei couldn't continue playing around anymore.
"Skeleton head, die."
A mass of lightning transformed into an arrow, directly colliding with the Skeleton Monarch's chest.
A gigantic arm composed of lightning, grabbed the Skeleton Monarch's head and slammed it into the ground.
With the skeleton head's impact point as the center, dense cracks spread out like a spider web, and electric plasma rushed out from the crevices.
Lightning also fiercely poured from Longbei's palm into the Skeleton Monarch's skull.
Dazzling electric light flashed throughout the space.
When the light subsided.
The Skeleton Monarch's figure was gone, leaving only a jet-black remnant.
Longbei patted his body and stood up.
Still holding the Skeleton Monarch's crown, placing it onto his own head.
"How does it look? Does it have majesty?"
Everyone rolled their eyes and ignored him.
Kane bent over, pulling out the giant scythe slanted in the ground.
The giant scythe Lucerne used turned out to be a rare weapon.
A two-meter-long handle seemed made from some animal's bones, polished to a jade-like appearance.
Inside, wisps of ghostly green aura roamed.
The top was a large skull, with an open mouth from which the scythe blade extended diagonally.
The blade was a blend of blood red and ghostly green hues.
Compared to metal, it looked more like some energy body.
Kane couldn't resist touching it; it was indeed metal, quite peculiar.
Having gone long without receiving equipment, Kane couldn't resist identifying it.
[Night Harvest]
[Scythe]
[Quality: Gold]
[Attributes:]
[Death Rule - Power Increased]
[Necromancy - Attack Increased]
[Extreme Armor Piercing]
[Endless Bleeding] (Wounds caused by this weapon cannot heal in a short time.)
[Skill: Soul Harvest] (Infuse magic power to enable the next attack to directly damage the opponent's soul.
Has a breaking effect on soul defense.)
[Description: A replica crafted based on the scythe of the Death God, although its power is far inferior. However, at the same level, it's still a rare weapon.
The hope is its next owner uses it for combat instead of as a magic staff; otherwise, it might be displeased enough to stop working.]
This attribute is definitely at the gold stage, marking it as superior.
But this weapon clearly emphasized close combat; though it enhances magic, its hand-to-hand effectiveness is unmatched.
The undead truly misused the precious weapon by treating it as a magic staff.
Even the weapon found it intolerable.
No wonder it was so weak.
Kane shook his head and handed the weapon to Kreya.
Clearly, the weapon suited Kreya incredibly well, especially as she became more adept with the Death Rule.
Plus, she also had prowess in necromancy.
Although he wasn't sure when Kreya learned it.
"An extraordinary weapon, practically tailor-made for you, use it well."
Upon hearing Kane's words, Kreya accepted the scythe, swinging it twice.
After a simple demonstration, Kreya became somewhat familiar with the weapon, and her mastery improved.
The Weapon Master isn't just for show.
"Buddy, check out if this is a top-tier equipment."
Seeing Longbei trot over excitedly, Kane assessed the crown he handed over.
"Decent equipment, quite normal at the gold level."
"Though the attributes aren't very suitable, wearing it still won't hurt."
Listening to Kane's evaluation, Longbei contentedly placed it back on his head.
Strength doesn't matter, the appearance is top-notch.
As a Prince of the Platinum Country, one must have a crown, right?
