Chapter 1394: Chapter 577: Slaying Within Three Minutes_2

"You’re done!"

Wang Tao chuckled and swiftly dodged the Giant Zombie’s swinging hand, then flapped his Flame Wings and flew towards the other side of the Giant Zombie, launching a Shockwave at its head.

Although Wang Tao had the upper hand, he did not dare to be careless. He did not wish to clash head-on with the Giant Zombie’s fists.

Swoosh!

The Giant Zombie immediately raised its arms to shield its face. The Shockwave was blocked by its arms.

Zombies’ weaknesses are in their heads; a Shockwave hitting its hand did not cause much damage. However, the Curse Effect of the [Heart of Darkness] did not care where it hit; as long as the target was struck, the curse would be applied!

Thus, another curse appeared over the head of the Giant Zombie.

[Curse: Execute]

"Ah?"

Seeing this third curse, Wang Tao was a bit stunned.

Isn’t it, is my luck today really this good?

When using his Dark Attack Ability, he could at most inflict three simultaneous curses on a target. If none of these three curses vanished, then the fourth curse could never emerge.

Therefore, when facing a formidable enemy, the quality of the first three curses is critical.

If the initial three curses are those of little effect and long duration, it could be quite frustrating, as they would significantly reduce the efficiency of the hunt.

For instance, a [Curse: Pain] inflicted on a zombie which would make hits feel more painful—and somewhat effective against humans—would be utterly useless against zombies that feel no pain, essentially wasting the curse. And what is more agonizing is that this curse lasts for ten minutes...

If the initial three curses are all potent, then Wang Tao’s hunting efficiency would surge dramatically.

And today, these three curses were just incredibly fortunate!

This Giant Zombie was a Sixth Rank Lord with an abnormal Healing Ability, some intelligence, and relatively agile body. Wang Tao wasn’t even sure he could kill it; he just wanted to give it a try.

But now, with these three curses appearing, Wang Tao felt that if he couldn’t take down the Giant Zombie quickly, it would be a total waste of his luck today!

[Curse: Corruption] reduced the Giant Zombie’s Healing Ability and lasted for ten minutes; [Curse: Deadly Poison] caused continuous HP loss in the Giant Zombie, indirectly reducing its healing power and lasting for 3 minutes!

These two curses were the perfect counter to the Giant Zombie’s outrageous Healing Ability.

[Curse: Slaying] would instantly slay the Giant if its HP fell below 20% within 3 minutes. This effectively meant the Giant Zombie had 200,000 less HP!

The Cursed Kill was powerful, and Wang Tao rarely encountered Slaying on his first assault; after all, it cut down 20% of HP instantly.

However, for Wang Tao, the essential point of Slaying wasn’t just reducing the enemy’s HP by 200,000 but cutting down the ’last’ 200,000 HP!

The Giant Zombie’s Healing Ability was strong; the lower its HP, the more it healed. Even with Corruption and Deadly Poison, once the Giant Zombie’s HP dropped significantly, Wang Tao was no longer confident he could suppress it.

But now, with the Slaying Curse, things were different. It did not give the Giant Zombie a chance to heal! With less than 200,000 HP remaining, its formidable Healing Ability was worthless!

Roar——

The Giant Zombie let out another roar, louder than before. Wang Tao could distinctly feel an angry emotion emanating from it—it had detected the [Curse: Execute].

Corruption and Deadly Poison, although counter to the Giant Zombie, would not directly end its life. But this Slaying Curse could genuinely threaten it!

Therefore, it got angry and intended to crush and devour this delectable prey before its eyes!

However, anger was futile; after all, Wang Tao could fly.

Although his Speed had been greatly reduced by the Freezing aura, flight still had its advantages, especially since Wang Tao was much smaller compared to the Giant, making it like the Giant Zombie was trying to swat a mosquito—it could only hear Wang Tao flying around its ear, but could never hit him. This incensed it even more.

Of course, it wasn’t that easy for Wang Tao either. Facing the frequency of the Giant Zombie’s attacks, Wang Tao had to devote a lot of time to dodging, reducing the opportunities he had to attack.

If it weren’t for Wang Tao’s diverse means of attack, capable of both ranged and melee and even flight, then he would have already been unable to fight.

It must be said, this Giant Zombie was truly agile and intelligent. Had it not been so clever, and had intelligence similar to the other Giant Zombies Wang Tao had encountered before, it would have been dead already. Even with its defiant Healing Ability, it would have been useless!

But... that was about it.

Wang Tao had decided to take down the Giant Zombie within three minutes, so he basically held nothing back.

He drank all the Potions and used all the techniques available to him. In fact, Wang Tao didn’t even dodge every attack anymore, choosing to go all-out on offense whenever he felt he could inflict significant damage on the Giant Zombie, relying on the Omnipotent Shield to take the hits and trading blow for blow with the giant.

This strategy couldn’t last long, and it wasn’t many hits before the Omnipotent Shield broke. Indeed, the strength of this Giant Zombie was not something that ordinary people could withstand.

However, the effect was significant, as the Giant’s HP continually decreased.

After the Omnipotent Shield broke, Wang Tao became cautious again, even ready to switch to the Iron Shatter Spear at any moment. The Sharp Giant Blade dealt high damage, but the Iron Shatter Spear had a Blood Sucking Effect, and if he happened to get hit by the Giant Zombie, he could rely on the spear to regain HP.

As the Giant Zombie’s HP fell, it became even more Frenzy, reaching out to grab Wang Tao while stomping on the ground with the other hand.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Wang Tao was initially confused, questioning the point of the Giant Zombie stomping while he was flying in the air.

But soon he noticed that as the Giant Zombie stomped, the ground and the nearby cliffs began to tremble slightly, then the trembling became more and more intense, like an earthquake!

And with the ground and cliffs shaking, the goose feather-like snow in the sky also began to sway — the air was trembling!

Wang Tao, who was flying smoothly, suddenly felt like he was being squeezed by the airflow, struggling to maintain balance, especially since the Freezing aura made his body stiff... This gave Wang Tao the feeling he could fall at any time.

"Damn, it can do this too!"

Wang Tao truly hadn’t expected the Giant Zombie to pull off such a move, caught somewhat off guard.

But... it was already too late!

Staring at the Giant Zombie’s more than 200,000 HP, and the ticking seconds left on the Cursed Kill, Wang Tao cracked a smile.

If the Giant Zombie had started with this tactic, then Wang Tao probably wouldn’t have been able to get close.

But now...

Whoo—

Wang Tao flapped his wings furiously, yet still struggled to maintain balance. After dodging another attack from the Giant Zombie, the chaotic airflow finally knocked Wang Tao down, sending him plummeting towards the ground.

The Giant Zombie immediately bent down slightly, reaching out its huge hands toward Wang Tao like Five Fingers Mountain, ready to crush him if caught.

Wang Tao ignored the Giant Zombie’s hands and instead, looked into its murky eyes... their eyes met.

In the Giant Zombie’s eyes was a tumultuous and violent aura, enough to drive an ordinary person insane at a glance. In Wang Tao’s eyes... burned an intense flame.

A Fusion technique of Starfire Prairie and Mental development — Hellfire!

Click—

The Giant Zombie’s body suddenly stiffened, and those violent eyes seemed to calm down.

[-52342]

[182464/1000000]

[-182464]

[0/1000000]

First, a damage number of over 50,000 appeared above the Giant Zombie’s head, the damage from Hellfire.

And this damage brought the Giant Zombie’s HP below 20%, triggering the Curse: Execute. The 180,000 HP of the Giant Zombie was wiped out in an instant.

Boom—

The Giant Zombie thudded to the ground, collapsing right in front of Wang Tao, who had just landed.
