However, Su Yue had already anticipated all of this.
With a wave of his hand, the arrow shot out like a meteor.
While the zombies were still tumbling in the air, they were accurately struck by Su Yue's arrows and shot down one by one.
For ordinary people, the ambush by these low-level zombies might be a fierce battle.
However, for Su Yue, it was destined to be nothing more than experience and gold coins.
As the zombies fell one after another, their corpses quickly turned into wisps of white mist and disappeared into the air.
Sure enough, apart from the meager experience and gold coins, no substantial rewards were left.
The unexpected bonus was the whistle given to me by the bull demon; it actually works quite well.
During their long journey, Su Yue and Lu Wei encountered several such zombie squads.
However, thanks to their tacit cooperation, the process went quite smoothly.
The area is teeming with zombies, and they are quite formidable.
For Su Yue, reaching level 30 is only a matter of time.
When Su Yue finally arrived at the first target location marked on the map, the scene before him made him slightly stunned.
Five enormous zombie rats, each the size of a leopard, stood silently guarding the area, forming a circle as if protecting something.
In the center of the circle, a huge head gleaming with metallic luster emerged from a cave in the ground, appearing extremely eerie.
The head was tightly chained by a thick iron chain, like a giant beast being bound.
Needless to say, this is definitely a head that Orochi needs to save.
The zombie rats swirled and danced merrily around the enormous head of the Yamata no Orochi.
It looked like some kind of celebration ceremony, or perhaps some kind of mysterious ritual.
【Yamata no Orochi (Metal Element)】: Emperor-level Mythical Beast, LV30. (Abilities sealed)
Just then, a crisp system notification sounded:
[Ding! The "Save Orochi" quest has been updated! Please eliminate the surrounding zombie rats before depleting Orochi's (Metal type) energy!]
Just as Su Yue had predicted, the battle had a bit of a tower defense game feel to it.
However, to his surprise, the zombie rat leaders guarding the gate were only at the leader level.
However, Su Yue showed an excited expression.
It wasn't because these monsters were low-level that I was happy.
Rather, it was based on Su Yue's calculations.
If he successfully defeats these zombie rats, his level will rise to level 30.
At that time, he will possess the Water Spirit Orb and the Fire Spirit Orb.
He will unlock even more powerful new skills, bringing more possibilities to his battles.
Su Yue's appearance attracted the attention of the sealed Yamata no Orochi.
A hint of disdain flashed in its eyes, and its words revealed an arrogant and overbearing demeanor:
"Insect! Are you the only one? Have all the people of the Land of Cherry Blossoms perished? Do we really need a stranger like you to save this emperor?"
“Yes, Lord Lao! All the people from the Sakura Kingdom around here are dead. But my archery skills are still lacking, and I am afraid that I might accidentally injure you while rescuing you. Please forgive me…” Su Yue’s words revealed deep piety and caution.
Under normal circumstances, Su Yue would pursue a high rating for the dungeon.
We will do everything in our power to minimize the damage taken by the protected units.
However, it's perfectly reasonable for us to make a mistake once in a while, right?
"Hmph! You mere ants, go ahead and attack! Do you think you can possibly harm me, Your Majesty?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yue was overjoyed.
"Since you put it that way, then I won't stand on ceremony!"
He decided to no longer hold back his moves and power.
After all, the rating of a dungeon is not just about damage control; it involves many factors.
Since we're not going to do a no-damage run, we can try a speedrun!
Seeing the zombie rat spinning and dancing with its eyes closed, Su Yue immediately unleashed a killing move!
The Eye of the Demon King!
In an instant, a huge black eyeball appeared on the top of the zombie rat's head.
That chilling killing intent swept over them like a storm, engulfing all the rats.
Four mice were mercilessly swept into the air by this force.
Only the largest and fattest one, under Su Yue's deliberate control, escaped this fatal blow.
However, this did not affect Su Yue's attack rhythm, and he followed up with an arrow.
The arrow shaft transformed into a blazing red flame, containing a powerful and violent fire force that seemed intent on burning everything to ashes.
[Flame Storm] Fire Spirit Orb Level 20 Skill. Your arrows transform into a flame storm upon impact, dealing devastating area-of-effect damage to enemies.
The moment the flaming arrow touched the ground, it was like a magnificent sight of celestial maidens scattering flowers.
It instantly shattered into countless small pieces, scattering and flying like fireworks, releasing dazzling light.
Finally, it scattered into sparks of all sizes, which then bloomed individually, like cluster bombs, causing an explosion.
This was Su Yue's first use of the Fire Spirit Orb's attack skill, and its power was astonishing.
Countless shattered sparks were drawn into the Ghost King's eye, inflicting fatal scorching damage on the zombie rats.
The entire battlefield was engulfed by waves of flames, as if it were in a sea of fire.
The next second, Su Yue could almost smell the aroma of roasted meat in the air.
However, he did not stop there.
Instead, it continued to unleash a series of wide-area damage skills, pouring out like a saturation bombardment.
Under Su Yue's precise control, most of the arrows skillfully grazed the zombie rats' bodies and shot straight at the Yamata no Orochi.
Faced with Su Yue's chaotic and fierce offensive, Orochi was caught off guard and was under immense pressure within a few dozen seconds.
"Lord Lao, are you alright?" Su Yue, the instigator, asked.
"You ant! Can't you be any faster?!"
The Yamata no Orochi roared under Su Yue's relentless onslaught, its anger and helplessness intertwined...
