Chapter 66 - Crushing the Boss with Strength
Chapter 66: Crushing the Boss with Strength
“Small Artillery, Venom, attack with all your might!”
“Rimuru, block it!”
Lorne moved away from the center of the battlefield and stood far away, watching the fiery battle ahead.
In fact, the moment he used the skill to attack but had not dealt any damage to Lorne, the outcome of the entire battle had been decided.
The Demon Soul King was forced back by the three pets.
It could not last long against the 910 points of attack.
Soon, its health was depleted.
Lorne had no intention of using it as a merging target.
The Demon Soul King’s attributes were very ordinary in all aspects.
If not for the fact that it was in the Dark Forest, its life-recovery skill would have been useless, so it was just a monster with no outstanding qualities.
What was the use of it?
Without hesitation, Lorne commanded his pets to attack this ‘friend’ in the most brutal way possible.
“Wait… Adventurer…”
Sensing Lorne’s killing intent, the Demon Soul King fell from the sky and knelt on the ground without dignity. Then, it looked at Lorne with a pitiful expression and begged, “Master Adventurer, I’m just a lost soul, a pitiful person who died once. Please let me go. You will not gain anything by killing me. Why don’t you let me go and I’ll give you all my treasures?”
“Then what are you waiting for?” Lorne glared at it while asking.
“Yes, yes, yes. Please wait a moment, Master.”
The Demon Soul King waved its hands. In the next moment, countless gold coins rose from the soil in the forest and gathered in front of Lorne, forming a small golden mountain.
“These are the gold coins that I collected. It’s exactly 300 gold coins.”
300 gold coins meant 1.5 million alliance dollars. This harvest was much higher than killing a Boss.
That was not all.
In the next second, a few pieces of glowing equipment appeared in front of Lorne.
The Demon Soul King said, “These are the equipment dropped by the adventurers who passed by the forest. There were originally more, but after too long, many of the equipment have become unusable.”
That was it?
Lorne checked the details of the equipment and found that they were only ordinary Silver and Bronze items.
Lorne’s expression remained cold, “You don’t think these things can get me to spare you, do you?”
Although the items were not bad, it was not enough for an old monster who had lived for a thousand years.
With that, Lorne had Small Artillery raise the bow in its hand.
“Spare me, adventurer, spare me.”
Feeling the threat of death, the Demon Soul King trembled and quickly took out its last treasure. “Adventurer, there’s another treasure here, it’s something that was left behind a thousand years ago.”
It was a feather without any light. It was half a meter long and covered in black blood.
Although there was no effect, any player could tell that it was a very rare material.
Lorne held the feather in his hand and opened its information panel.
————
[Unknown Bloodstained Feather]
Quality: ???
Effect: ???
Effect: A bloodstained feather that seems to contain a very faint power of light. If you hand it over to the Radiant Church, you might receive a reward.
————
The Radiant Church?
Lorne just so happened to have a mission that required him to go to the Radiant Church.
However, what made Lorne pay attention was that the quality of the feather was unknown!
Any player would know that unknown quality represented infinite possibilities in the game.
Perhaps it was just an ordinary ornament.
However, it might also be an incredibly rare item.
To know the answer to all of this, he had to hand it over to the Radiant Church.
Lorne gathered his things.
Then, he continued to squeeze out the last of the Demon Soul King’s assets.
However, this cowardly Boss insisted that he no longer had any treasures.
It was simply because too many ancient things had been completely buried in the annals of history.
Just like how steel would rot, medicinal substances would spoil, plants would rot, and rocks would be eroded…
In addition, the Demon Soul King would always forget some ancient memories.
In the end, it only had this many treasures.
Lorne could sense that the boss was not lying.
Therefore, he did not waste any more time.
Instead, he asked, “After staying here for so many years, have you not collected the corpses of some monsters or the remains?”
In the battle a thousand years ago, too many great figures had died.
There might be someone who would leave behind some bones or something. When the time came, he would definitely obtain a very good surprise by using them to synthesize.
But at this moment, hearing this question, the Demon Soul King was stunned.
Corpse?
He wanted the remains of the dead!
The information in its memory was right. The undead mages of the fallen race liked to study the bodies of the dead the most.
This was a disgusting habit.
Although it did not understand why this human wanted the corpses, it was related to its own safety, so the Demon Soul King was naturally very active.
“Yes, of course. I’ll help you find them now.”
The Demon Soul King quickly checked the memory fragments in its mind and checked them one by one. In the end, it found some relatively well-preserved corpses.
One ball of light after another flew in front of Lorne.
When the balls of light disappeared, he saw a pile of rotting corpses and various items on the ground.
“Ding! Congratulations on obtaining: [Abyssal Graveyard Ghostly Bone Claw]!”
“Ding! Congratulations on obtaining: [Rotten Demon Wolf Leg]!”
“Ding! Congratulations on obtaining: [Light Unknown Bone]!”
“Ding! Congratulations on obtaining: [Mummified War Banner Cloth]!”
“Ding! Congratulations on obtaining: [Cracked War Horn]!”
“…”
Lorne accepted most of the materials. Apart from some equipment on the battlefield, there were also the skeletons of monsters.
Most of them were from recent decades. There were no materials from a thousand years ago.
But at that moment…
The Demon Soul King held a treasure chest and handed it over. It said respectfully, “Master Adventurer, this is what I found in the depths of my memory. Although I don’t know what’s inside, I feel that it’s very important. Now, I’ll give this treasure chest to you. I hope you can spare my life.”
Treasure chest?
Something that had been hiding in the depths of its memory?
To be able to remember a treasure chest like this, it should be a very special tool, right?
Lorne accepted the treasure chest, but was suddenly shocked because he seemed to sense something jumping in the treasure chest.
Sensing something amiss, Lorne stared at the Demon Soul King.
The Demon Soul King trembled in fear, but no matter what, it could not recall what was inside.
Left with no choice, Lorne let it open the treasure chest and investigate the content.
However, the moment it was opened, everyone’s eyes widened.
