Chapter 199 Lin Tian's Reflection and the Third Wave of Undead Catastrophe
......
Back in his own territory in Luoxia City, Lin Tian stayed alone, his mind replaying the events of Gray Rock City.
To be honest, I was a little scared at first.
It's not that I'm afraid I can't win, it's that their attack methods are just too damn underhanded!
Completely lacking in sportsmanship, not even bothering to trade blows or damage, they just flank you from behind and steal your base, trying to swap accounts with you! Who would have thought?
He had always thought that as long as his attributes were high enough and his skills were powerful enough, he could easily sweep through anyone he encountered. No matter how many monsters came, they would just be easy prey.
But Liu Ji taught him a good lesson—absolute power sometimes can't defend against those unpredictable, underhanded tricks hidden in the shadows.
This kind of talent that directly targets the soul is simply impossible to defend against!
"I was careless..." Lin Tian muttered to himself.
He figured that he couldn't just focus on stacking intelligence and spell damage anymore; he also needed to pay special attention to his soul.
We need to find a way to get something that can enhance the strength of the soul, such as getting more soul crystals to absorb.
Also, for rule-based sneak attacks like [Soul Swap], simply relying on attributes to withstand them might not be safe enough; you need to be careful about whether there are any special protective measures or items.
After this experience, his vigilance has increased significantly.
In the past, he was so powerful that he didn't care much about his surroundings or the people around him.
Now he understands that no matter how lively or safe the scene seems, you have to be careful.
In unfamiliar places and with unfamiliar faces, one should think things through carefully.
He may not be inclined to harm others, but he will never be without the instinct to protect himself.
In addition, he also realized the importance of "establishing authority".
It's not enough to just be strong; you also need to instill fear in people to the core, so they won't dare to have any wicked thoughts.
Just like how we dealt with Liu Ji this time, we have to be ruthless when we act, so ruthless that everyone can see clearly that the consequence of daring to extend one's claws is that the person and the account will be completely deleted, with no room for redemption.
We must use this kind of utter destruction to frighten away all those potential, malicious individuals and completely extinguish their wishful thinking.
Ultimately, this incident served as a wake-up call for him, but it also turned out to be a blessing in disguise, making him more clear-headed.
Far from feeling frustrated, he felt his mindset had become more stable and his goal clearer—to become stronger, and keep becoming stronger! Stronger than ever!
He's so powerful that no matter what kind of monsters or demons they are, no matter what kind of schemes or tricks they play, they're all just paper tigers in front of his absolute strength. He can break them with a single poke, without even making a sound!
......
[Server-wide Announcement: The final wave of the Scourge – the third wave of attacks – will officially begin in 60 seconds!]
[Warning: This wave of undead carries the ultimate will of death, far exceeding the strength of previous waves, and will include a "Undead Leader" who will rule over a region.]
All players, please fight with all your might for survival!
[Countdown: 59...58...57...]
The deep, suffocating sound of the bugle rang out once again atop Luoxia City.
Everyone knew that what was bound to happen would eventually happen.
Lin Tian stood atop the highest watchtower of the city wall, the wind causing the hem of his robe to flutter loudly.
He squinted at the distance. The sky, which had been relatively clear on the horizon, now looked as if a bucket of ink had been poured over it and mixed with green paint, pressing down in a dark, lush green.
A stench, a mixture of putridity, sulfur, and some inexplicable resentment, wafted through the air and covered people's faces.
"Damn it, the third wave... are they planning to turn this place into a graveyard and level it?" A player below swallowed hard, his voice trembling slightly.
It's no wonder he was a coward. The undead that came this time were completely different from the previous two waves of weaklings.
The skeleton soldiers leading the charge had skeletons that gleamed with a metallic sheen like black iron, and the broken swords and daggers they carried had transformed into bone blades that emitted a ghostly glow.
Mixed in among them are the bloated, dripping, viscous-suppressing Plague Bodies, and the wailing banshees floating in mid-air, emitting piercing screams.
This lineup is so luxurious it's mind-boggling.
But what stands out the most are those few "small hills" in the wave of undead.
On the left was a gigantic, enormous fat man, almost as tall as a city wall, with rotting flesh hanging down, revealing the stark white bones and wriggling maggots beneath. A huge mouth split open on his stomach, constantly spewing out green poisonous mist—the [Rotting Beast].
Judging by his size, one stomp of his could probably collapse half a wall.
The one on the right is even more outrageous, completely pieced together from countless bones, with two balls of ghostly blue soul fire burning in its eye sockets, comparable to searchlights, and carrying a bone blade the size of a door panel. Its walk causes the earth to shake—[Skeleton King].
Just by looking at its appearance, you can tell it's a tough one.
There was another intangible entity, a huge cloud of billowing black smoke, within which countless agonizing, distorted human faces could be vaguely seen wailing. Wherever it passed, even light was sucked away, exuding an eerie aura—[Aggregate of Vengeful Spirits].
"Three...three level 35 bosses?!" The player with the scouting skill shouted in a split voice.
The news spread like a virus within the defense line, and panic spread instantly.
Level 35! For players whose average level is just over 20, this thing is practically the ultimate weapon of destruction.
Zhang Tianya, carrying his precious giant shield, had a dry throat and roared, "Everyone hold your ground! Don't break formation! Trust Boss Lin Tian!" He said this, but his own palms were sweating profusely.
With this lineup, how many players would need to kill to make it enough?
On Li Weiwei's side, the girls in the mage group also turned a little pale, and their hands gripped their staffs tightly.
Their fireballs might be effective against ordinary undead, but against a boss of that size? Probably just a tickle.
Just when everyone was filled with anxiety, Lin Tian, who was on the top of the tower, made a move.
He didn't even bother to fully raise his staff; he just casually pointed it at the most densely populated area of the undead.
"boom!!!"
Two huge slits were torn open in the sky!
This isn't a metaphor; it really cracked open!
From the azure astral rift, violent fragments of stars and destructive energy rained down like they were free, instantly turning that area into a death zone—[Starstorm]!
And it was two at once!
One second the undead were charging forward with bared teeth and claws, the next second they were like being thrown into a giant meat grinder. Bone fragments, rotten flesh chunks, and twisted spirit fragments were blasted everywhere, and the damage numbers were so dense that they were impossible to see, just a blur of white light.
This is not over yet.
With a casual flick of his left hand, Lin Tian created a massive, visible gravitational vortex within another pile of undead—[Universal Gravity Pull]!
