Chapter 320: No dropped items?
The Bronze Throne could actually be damaged, startling all the NPCs who were aware of its value;
Qian Xiaohao was filled with a sense of utter despair. The Bronze Throne was a token, possessing it proved one to be qualified to vie for one of the only ten professions.
“Damn, I don’t know if we can still enter that place with the damaged Bronze Throne…” Qian Xiaohao was nearly choked with anger. His eyes, when looking at the imperial Dragon Demon Lord, were filled with murderous intent, as if he wanted nothing more than to hack it into pieces.
The Imperial Dragon Demon Lord looked surprised, even somewhat incredulous, as he noticed that he had squeezed and crumbled the handle of the Bronze Throne.
Just then, an ethereal spirit sword materialized above Song Jian’s head, and he slashed it heavily on the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord.
A wailing scream echoed as the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord fell from the Bronze Throne. His long knife swept sideways, forcing Song Jian to retreat. The Imperial Dragon Demon Lord staggered to his feet, looked at Song Jian, snorted coldly, surprisingly plunged into the crowd of NPCs. He grabbed the nearest priest-type profession, violently stabbing him in the heart. The priest’s head instantly displayed around six hundred damage points, instantly killing him.
The Demon Lord opened his mouth for a suction and the blood from the priest’s body promptly consolidated into red streaks of energy, rushing toward his mouth.
1 he Imperial Dragon Demon Lord, originally had only less than five hundred vitality points, recovered nearly three hundred points in just a few seconds. Dissatisfied with recovering only over two hundred vitality points, the Imperial Demon Dragon Lord discarded the dried-up corpse in his hand after sucking it dry. He snorted coldly and rushed towards another nearby NPC.
“Stop him, we can’t let him continue to restore vitality!” The NPCs cried out, causing chaos. They had been spectating for too long and had forgotten that the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord intended to wipe them all out here.
In an instant, everyone – players and NPCs alike – attacked the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord. Countless colorful pillars of energy exploded on his body, the sound of powerful strikes filled the air.
A black fog floated at the surface of the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord’s body, drastically reducing all the damage dealt to him to single digits. The combined attack of hundreds of individuals only caused a mere three to four hundred total damage to him.
“You all… will die!” The Imperial Dragon Demon Lord’s vitality points were down to less than five hundred, but his arrogance made it seem as if he was pressuring hundreds of players and NPCs.
In reality, it was indeed the case. The Imperial Dragon Demon Lord’s attack power had now reached a terrifying level. Even the Shield Warrior who initially blocked him had his shield split into two, reducing him to a near-death state.
The others were no match for him. Whoever came close was either slain in a single stroke or had all their vitality drained. It was bizarre, however, that no matter how much vitality the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord drained from NPCs, his vitality seemed to be permanently stuck at five hundred points and could not be increased any further.
Just then, a ‘crack’ sound came from the Bronze Throne. Chaos ensued within the Imperial Dragon Demon Palace. The only one who heard this crack was Song Jian, who had been standing aside and watching the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord with folded arms.
At first, Song Jian thought he had heard wrong and turned his head towards the Bronze Throne.
He was startled to see that small cracks had started to appear around the handle that was accidentally crushed by the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord. These cracks were spreading out with continuous ‘crack’ sounds.
But this sound was extremely weak. If it weren’t for Song Jian, who was standing right next to the Bronze Throne, no one could have heard it.
Like a frenzied maniac, the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord was killing left, right and center. Like a tiger amidst a herd of sheep, no one could match his power. Only then did people realize, to their astonishment, that someone had actually been able to battle with the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord for over ten minutes. It was virtually unbelievable.
“Boss, elite, lend us a hand. Do you really want to watch us all get slaughtered by this BOSS?”
“Yes, if the BOSS drops any items, we’re willing to give them all to you, okay?” “Help! This BOSS can deal over two hundred damage with a single normal attack. We can’t withstand it!”
The NPCs were too embarrassed to ask for help from Song Jian, but the players didn’t care about that now. Even the vitality points of a Level 10 professional player didn’t exceed three hundred. They couldn’t withstand the BOSS’S ordinary attacks, let alone using any skills.
But no matter how loudly the players begged for help, even pleading desperately, Song Jian just stood in place without moving, his brows furrowed as he stared intently at the Bronze Throne.
At this moment, no one noticed that the surface of the Bronze Throne was now covered in a dense network of cracks, like a spider’s web. This most precious existence in the eyes of the NPCs was about to be completely destroyed.
“Crash-”
The Bronze Throne suddenly crumbled into tiny particles, like sand, collapsing m an instant. Amidst a pile of blue dust, a palm-sized, dazzling bronze box appeared in front of Song Jian.
“There’s actually a treasure inside the Bronze Throne?” Song Jian’s eyes lit up. He rushed forward, picked up the palm-sized bronze box and immediately placed it in his inventory.
The moment Song Jian put the bronze box into his inventory, the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord seemed to feel something. After knocking an NPC away, he turned and looked at the Bronze Throne.
When he saw the Bronze Throne had turned into fine sand, a look of despair appeared on the face of the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord. He yelled hysterically, “No, it can’t be…”
“Crack, crack-”
The Imperial Dragon Demon Lord began walking towards the Bronze Throne. After only a few steps, his legs started to stiffen and a hint of blue appeared on the surface of his body. After struggling forwards a few steps more, the entire body of the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord was covered in blue, looking like a bronze statue.
Boom!
The bronze statue that the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord had turned into shattered, and horrific wails echoed throughout the Imperial Dragon Demon Palace.
At this time, a red light point suddenly appeared in front of the Bronze Throne. In an instant, this light point turned into a light door, with a five-minute countdown appearing above it.
“Did you just take something from the Bronze Throne?” Qian Xiaohao suddenly pointed at Song Jian and shouted loudly.
No one had seen the moment when the Bronze Throne had crumbled into fine sand. Everyone had been chased by the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord as if they were mice, afraid that they would be cut to pieces if they were one step slow.
However, after Song Jian took away the bronze box, an indentation in the shape of a box was left in the blue sand and caught Qian Xiaohao’s attention.
It was this detail that made Qian Xiaohao suspicious. He wondered if Song Jian had taken something.
Song Jian glanced coldly at Qian Xiaohao, made a throat-slitting gesture, turned around, and disappeared into the red light portal.
The players didn’t notice the actions of the NPCs; they all swarmed towards the corpse of the Imperial Dragon Demon Lord, continuously flipping over each bronze fragment, hoping to see if the BOSS had dropped any items.
However, to the disappointment of everyone, this powerful Level 15 Boss did not drop any items at all, leaving the players cursing out loud. This behavior gave the remaining NPCs pause and a look of astonishment spread across their faces.
