Chapter 199: Chapter 187: Pig Teammate! Bloodline Exhaustion, The Frenzied Escape of the Bosses.

Shen Yurou’s actions were quite smooth.

In the abyss, magma flows were rampant everywhere, thus producing a large quantity of demon iron ore.

The four of them had scoured so many palaces that they could say their hands were full of a mountainous pile of ore resources.

Since they needed to create various mechanical creations, Shen Yurou’s Spatial Backpack contained a smelting furnace.

So she randomly took out a few ingots specially produced in the abyss, let the stone golems hold them in the magma to see how they resisted corrosion.

Several types of metal ingots were not afraid of the high temperature and corrosion of the magma, so she decisively picked the most abundant type of ingots to start melting in the furnace.

The lavish Zi Liyuan had bought furnaces that used energy crystals to melt metals, those special kinds of furnaces.

Thus, in just a couple of hours, Shen Yurou had melted a large metal plate as thick as a fist.

Next was to use various existing machinery to polish the metal plate, bending its edges to make a simple metal raft.

With banging and cutting, sewing and patching, a metal raft without power that wouldn’t melt in the high temperature or corrosion of the magma was completed.

As for the power source, of course, it was the stone golems made by Number Two. After undergoing the dissolution and erosion by the magma, these round and plump golems transformed into model-like figures, becoming the epitome of weight loss in their field.

Summoning a total of four, each pulling a corner of the metal raft, they could embark on an exciting surfing journey on the magma flow.

As for the high temperature brought by the magma, it was no issue at all.

Shen Yurou had prepared quite a few high-temperature protective suits. She needed these when making some special mechanical creations. Now that everyone put them on, although the high temperature persisted, it was still within a tolerable range.

The four of them couldn’t care less at this moment. Seeing the magma flow slowly rising, they could only endure the torture of the high temperature, occasionally consuming a fire resistance potion.

Then they made some seats from materials that were poor conductors of heat and took their places on the crudely made metal raft, letting the stone golems drag and push them swiftly towards the city wall.

…

On the other side, with four royals taking the lead, the new recruits who had entered the abyssal rift were mostly driven by them.

Believing in strength in numbers, especially with all being elite members, a team of more than three thousand people was steamrolling through the demon minions made of Level 80 enemies, beating them into a retreat.

As for the loot, it wasn’t much; abyssal monsters were notoriously stingy with drops, and since most of the kills were minions and few bosses had been dealt with, the profits were very limited.

But this mission was mainly arranged by the academy. Any monster killed contributed points to all the new recruits, and they would eventually receive some Contribution Value.

Ying Xueji and her group, who didn’t exert much effort and planned to coast through the mission without taking risks, didn’t expect the sudden turn of events.

While the new recruits maintained their formation and advanced steadily, the sky was suddenly covered with a vast expanse of dark energy clouds. Then magic fire turned into small fireballs, raining down from the heavens, smashing directly into the recruits’ formation.

The sudden attack didn’t cause the elite new recruits to panic. Under the organization of their temporary commander, they quickly adapted to the arrival of the magic fire.

The Area of Effect skills released by the Fourth Order Peak Lord Boss did substantial damage, but there were quite a few healers among the new recruits.

After these healers were organized, they began to stabilize the whole team’s health, supporting the frontline tanks with various buffs to enhance their resistances.

However, the AOE attacks weren’t just one wave, but dozens.

A rain of demonic fire fell on the battlefield, and anyone drenched by it was afflicted with a demonic corrosion debuff that reduced all their attributes.

This turn of events finally made Ying Xueji and her group look serious, and they immediately unfurled a scroll that covered the entire battlefield.

The holy element of light turned into Holy Light that engulfed the field, driving away all darkness and decay, purifying all abnormal states.

It even inflicted all abyssal monsters with a debuff, reducing their attributes by 10%.

However, this effect didn’t last long. Almost at the next moment, a tremendous dark energy was released from underground.

The abyssal monsters in the battlefield instantly dispelled the negative effects brought by the Holy Light under the rampant dark energy.

At the same time, the sky was filled with meteorites burning with dark green flames, crashing down onto the battlefield.

The “boom” of impacts was incessant, smashing numerous large pits into the castle ground. Then the meteorites rolled and deformed, turning into hellfires climbing out of the pits. With demonic fire, they charged towards the formation constructed by the new recruits.

With hellfires as the spearhead and the Demon Army charging closely behind, followed by fourteen great demon Lord Bosses with their Doomguard escorts taking the stage.

As for the previous demon group attacking the new recruits, they obediently moved aside to clear the path as the regular army arrived.

Any that didn’t clear the way forward were crushed into pieces by the Demon Army.

“If the Fourth Order Peak Lord Bosses team up to cast spells, our new recruit team will collapse instantly. We must intercept and snipe these bosses,” said Zhu Wu, pulling out a large defensive scroll from his Spatial Backpack, ready to tear it open at the first sign of trouble.

“Are abyssal Bosses always this reliable? Coming out in a group like this, they seem prepared for a wholesale slaughter of us,” remarked someone.
