Chapter 72: Undead: Red-robed Female Ghost King!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It could be seen that although she was still a student, Jiang Tingting had good social skills.
For example, when she saw Lin Chen this time, she did not mention that she had called Lin Chen to interview him previously and was rejected by him.
This successfully avoided the awkwardness between the two of them.
Then, Jiang Tingting happily followed Lin Chen to the Trial Tower.
She had thought that this would be a one-on-one experience with Lin Chen.
Unexpectedly, when she reached the door, she realized that Zhang Chunlin’s team with four girls was also there.
“Haha, I knew Boss would definitely bring Senior to clear the Trial Tower.” Zhang Chunlin smiled smugly, looking very proud.
“Is there anyone among you who hasn’t passed the Trial Tower?”
Lin Chen asked.
Then, the four girls raised their hands together.
“Jiang Youyou, continue to follow Zhang Chunlin. The rest of you, come to my team.”
Lin Chen said indifferently.
Soon after, the three girls abandoned Zhang Chunlin.
Even Jiang Youyou would have left if Lin Chen’s team was not full.
“Lin Chen, we’re the actual classmates, right? Why didn’t you bring me along?” Jiang Youyou asked unhappily.
Lin Chen replied, “You obviously need to stay and have your boyfriend bring you… Chun Lin, get Seven and Xiao Mei to come over. It should be enough to clear the trial. I’ll bring them in first.”
With that, Lin Chen led the team into the Trial Tower.
There were a total of 100 levels in the Trial Tower. The highest-level Boss was only Level 120. To Lin Chen, who possessed three pets, every time he entered, he would instantly kill the monsters. Su Yijun and the others had never tried to clear it so quickly. This was the first time they felt so good.
How was this a trial tower?
They were clearly climbing!
As long as they knew how to climb the tower, it was fine.
Hence, the few of them fell behind Lin Chen and surrounded Jiang Tingting to ask questions and gossip.
The questions made Jiang Tingting blush.
“Wow, the City Lord is so handsome. He insta-killed a Level 30 Boss?”
“As expected of the strongest man on our Blue Planet!”
“Haha, the most ferocious man on the Blue Planet… Tingting, to be honest, did I do anything to you in the City Lord Manor just now?”
“That’s enough!”
Jiang Tingting could not stand the siege of these three women and quickly stopped them.
Otherwise, these three dirty women might have said something else.
Just like that, Lin Chen killed monsters in front while the four women behind chatted and climbed the tower. In less than ten minutes, they arrived at the last level.
This level had a Level 120 Boss.
It was a very powerful existence!
How strong was it?
To explain, Liu Mengyao, Zhang Chunlin, and Bai Shuyi had once formed a team and came here. In the end, it took them ten minutes to defeat this Boss.
One had to know that these three people’s equipment was not weak.
However, Liu Mengyao, who had the best equipment, was a Priest.
Zhang Chunlin was a Knight.
Therefore, it was up to Bai Shuyi to deal damage alone.
As for Bai Shuyi’s damage output, she was a physical attack type, with only physical damage.
As for Lin Chen?
He had dual physical and magic damage output!
He didn’t even use a Forbidden Spell. He just used Super Slide Kick. Then, he used a series of consecutive moves and ended with Enchanted Half Moon Slash to instantly kill this Level 120 Boss. In total, it took him a little more than a minute.
The Trial Tower had been cleared.
The four girls received EXP and leveled up to Level 80.
Lin Chen also got EXP.
However, 500 million experience points could no longer allow him to level up.
“We cleared the level just like that?”
“Wow, City Lord, you’re so handsome. Do you have a girlfriend?”
“City Lord, City Lord, look at me. My name is Su Yijun. Please get familiar with me…”
The three girls moved closer to Lin Chen. Their behavior made Jiang Tingting hold her forehead and quickly pretend that she was not familiar with them.
As for Lin Chen, he did not respond and instead directly ended the trial tower’s dungeon.
The team returned to the entrance of the Trial Tower.
At this moment, Zhang Chunlin was still on the way to find teammates and had yet to return.
“You… cleared the 100th floor just like that?”
Jiang Youyou was dumbfounded.
“Alright, you guys continue… Senior, remember to go to work in the City Lord Manor every day. I’ll leave now.”
Lin Chen left the team.
Ignoring the fact that Su Yijun and the others were still shouting, Lin Chen flapped his wings and left Sky Moon City.
The sky was about to turn dark.
However, Lin Chen deliberately waited until night time to leave the city.
After leaving Sky Moon City, he flew towards Dragon Sea City.
It was midnight.
A black shadow landed in the Jinhua District of Dragon Sea City.
This black shadow was Lin Chen.
At this moment, he was frowning.
The entire neighborhood was in ruins.
The residential buildings with more than ten floors were also pushed down.
Lin Chen could still sense some monsters entrenched here. These monsters also saw Lin Chen, but something interesting happened here… When the monsters saw Lin Chen, they did not rush forward like usual…
On the contrary, they looked terrified and curled up in the corner without moving.
Level 65 Wind Beast…
In front of the current Lin Chen, that was too weak.
Because of this, these monsters did not dare to be impudent.
It was very similar to some online games. After the level was higher than the monsters, the monsters would not become red-named and actively attack.
Lin Chen walked slowly in the neighborhood and finally arrived at the building he used to live in. However, this place had been razed to the ground and nothing existed anymore.
However, Lin Chen found something in the ruins…
A game helmet!
Lin Chen had forgotten to take it away previously.
At that time, Lin Chen thought that the gaming helmet should be useless.
Now, Lin Chen felt that regardless of whether it was useful or not, he should keep it.
He put the helmet on his head to take a look, but it was out of battery.
Lin Chen could only put the helmet into his storage ring.
Then, Lin Chen took off on the spot and flew around Dragon Sea City. He killed some Bosses above Level 120, including a Dark Demon Dragon that had actually leveled up to Level 140.
It seemed that this Dark Demon Dragon had eaten a lot of people.
After all, the Dark Demon Dragon’s normal level should only be Level 80.
The monsters in the eyes of the people of the Blue Planet and the demon beasts mentioned by the invaders actually ate humans as food… Not only humans, but even the invaders, elves, sea demons, and so on were all on the menu of the monsters.
As for these monsters, Lin Chen knew that they were basically being raised.
Then, they would definitely eat people.
Moreover, if they ate humans or members of other races, these monsters could level up or even advance.
It was not difficult to explain why the Level 80 Dark Demon Dragon had become Level 140!
However, even if it was Level 140, it could only be killed by Lin Chen.
After cleaning up Dragon Sea City, Lin Chen devoured the souls of many demon beasts, allowing his soul experience to reach 280,000!
He was only 20,000 experience points away from reaching another level in soul cultivation.
However, there were no more Bosses above Level 120 here, so Lin Chen ran towards Shanghai.
Shanghai
Before the game invaded, it was the most prosperous city in the Blue Planet’s Dragon Kingdom.
But now, those buildings that were hundreds of meters tall had all disappeared.
There was a desolate and gloomy feeling everywhere.
There were even some places that revealed a sinister aura.
Especially in the original area of the East Sea.
This used to be the center of prosperity.
But now…
There was only gloom.
As Lin Chen walked, many low-level monsters avoided him. As he walked, he unknowingly arrived at the river.
At this moment, a wooden boat suddenly appeared out of thin air by the river.
Then, an old woman smiled and asked, “Young man, do you want to cross the river?”
The old woman smiled sinisterly.
However, this old woman looked like someone from the Blue Planet.
There was actually someone here?
Moreover, she could still support a boat on the river…
This was obviously unscientific!
Lin Chen immediately felt that something was wrong.
Then, he perked up…
It was obvious that he had encountered a supernatural event.
Then…
In other words, the old woman in front of him was actually not human.
However, she was not transformed by demon beasts.
Instead, she was… an undead!
“Your wooden boat is actually just a wooden stick. Can it really carry me?” Lin Chen replied to the old woman.
In the next moment, the old woman’s true form was revealed.
She was indeed an undead!
“Hmph, you actually saw through it at a glance. Then… hand over your life!”
The old woman’s voice changed. It became a voice that did not sound like a human.
“That’s right. How can an undead speak? It must be a demon beast controlling you from behind… Hehe, evil creature, why aren’t you revealing your true body?” As soon as Lin Chen finished speaking, he slashed at the river with Enchanted Half Moon Slash!
BANG!
The river water exploded.
Then, an ugly thing that looked like a water ghost kept screaming.
However, at this moment, the undead old woman had turned into a malicious ghost. Her hair was disheveled. Her hands even had scarlet nails that were a few centimeters long as she screamed and rushed towards Lin Chen.
That shrill cry almost made Lin Chen lose his mind…
Lin Chen suddenly remembered that undead attacked souls!
“This is actually a Ghost King?”
Lin Chen realized that something was wrong.
Ghost King!
In the next moment, the Water Ghost escaped and dived into the water again.
It left the red-robed female undead behind and continued to attack Lin Chen.
However, Lin Chen did not attack the female ghost.
He only used extreme speed to dodge the female ghost’s attacks.
Then, Lin Chen began to chant…
Forbidden Spell, Undead Eternal Life!
As Lin Chen continued to chant, although the red-robed female undead continued to attack, Lin Chen’s soul became more and more stable without any flaws, causing the female ghost’s soul attack to be unable to find a place to attack.
The red-robed female Ghost King was still unwilling to give up.
Since the sound wave attack failed, it kept chasing after Lin Chen, wanting to enter his body and attack.
Lin Chen kept dodging. Finally, a strange light flashed in Lin Chen’s eyes.
At the same time, he stopped chanting.
Because…
The Forbidden Spell was completed!
Lin Chen stopped running and stood on the spot. He opened his hands and let the red-robed female ghost enter his body. However, in the next moment, the female ghost’s shrill cry sounded again.
Screams tore through the silent night sky of the Shanghai’s East Sea Beach!
“It seems that you must have devoured a lot of undead too. You actually ate from a First Rank undead to the Ghost King Realm, and you was at the peak… Could it be that you were killed when the game descended, and then you kept devouring undead, and finally grew into a Ghost King?”
At this moment, Lin Chen looked at the female ghost in front of him. His tone was calm but carried a trace of confusion.
The female ghost stood in front of Lin Chen, looking obedient.
Indeed.
Just now, she had already become an undead under Lin Chen!
The first undead that Lin Chen had was her.
Ghost King Realm!
This was also the reason why Lin Chen had never attacked the female ghost before…
He was afraid that he would kill the female Ghost King with a single hit..
