I'm at Level 30, But I Can Slay Level-9999 Beasts in One Hit!
Chapter 49 The First Challenge: Horde of Zombies

Chapter 49: Chapter 49 The First Challenge: Horde of Zombies

Ye Xuan instantly engaged in battle with these monsters; he didn’t have any chance to catch his breath, and he didn’t even have time to identify the attributes of these monsters.

This is characteristic of the exam challenges posed by King Yan, which is to create difficulties for the students under various conditions.

Although for ordinary monsters, one could kill them without knowing their attributes; however, when facing some high-level monsters, not knowing their attributes and skills could be extremely troublesome.

And it could possibly be life-threatening.

The most critical thing is, this first level is the simplest, only intended as a warm-up.

But...

Just the warm-up level alone includes 100 lesser monsters.

During the wild silver-grade secret realm instance they faced earlier, the first warm-up round only had twenty or thirty goblins.

The most crucial point is, although there was no chance to use identification, as a common advanced placement exam question, most students know that the monsters in this warm-up level are all level 17.

King Yan truly lives up to his reputation.

Ye Xuan, now embroiled in the thick of battle, is not most troubled by the combat, but by the monsters themselves.

The foul stench of these monsters, although it had been purified; but these creatures, covered in maggots, could visually make one extremely uncomfortable.

Tang Rou quickly followed, ready to protect Ye Xuan’s condition at any moment.

Not all Priests are the same.

A lousy Priest, aside from applying buffs, basically wouldn’t do anything else. Likewise, it meant that a team with such a Priest could only challenge ordinary instances.

A truly excellent Priest, on the other hand, sees buffs as just the basics. After applying buffs, they are always ready to reinforce shields, assist team members in resisting damage; for those team members losing health, they smartly utilize several healing skills to help them regain health and save lives;

Even the most skilled Priests have many very special abilities;

For example, the use of the Purify skill!

Nominally, Purify is a skill to remove abnormal states; however, this skill actually has another effect, which is if an enemy is in the midst of attacking a teammate, and the attack hits the teammate, using Purify at that moment can put the teammate in an invulnerable state to survive the fatal attack.

Therefore, an excellent Priest can greatly enhance a team’s potential, allowing a team to possess the ability to challenge levels above their own.

Tang Rou is such a Priest; from the time she became a Priest, she has read a large amount of Priest literature to study their techniques, and practiced extensively.

Although she might not compare to those truly advanced Priest experts in Huaxia Country right now, her goal is to catch up to and even surpass them.

Now, Tang Rou is also focusing her spirit, daring not to be the slightest bit careless.

However, she soon found out that her high level of alert seemed somewhat superfluous.

Because for this first wave of monsters, Ye Xuan faced no difficulty at all.

In his hand, the Purple Gold Dragon Roar Sword merely made a casual sweep, and a snow-white Sword Qi spread out directly.

"Ah! Ah!"

With just this one sword strike, he instantly split the several monsters in front of him in half!

A one-strike kill.

And he directly killed more than a dozen monsters.

After reaching level 18, Ye Xuan’s base attributes reached over 400, Tang Rou’s buffs exaggeratedly added more than 380 strength, and with the equipment effects and state effects on him, his strength soared over 1000.

Just a single normal attack was enough to instantly kill level 17 monsters.

After killing the dozen or so monsters in front; Ye Xuan stepped down and leapt to a height of 5 meters.

With that move, he dodged all the zombie monsters behind him.

These zombie monsters still intended to grab someone.

But Ye Xuan, mid-air, directly flung his sword towards Tang Rou’s direction.

Only a crisp metallic collision sound was heard!

The sharp Purple Gold Dragon Roar Sword landed directly in front of Tang Rou.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Xuan’s body, against all reason, flew towards the direction where Tang Rou was.

It turns out...

There was actually a very sturdy rope on that sword!

He was actually using this rope to completely evade all of the lesser monsters and retreat back to Tang Rou’s side.

At this moment...

The zombies he had killed, a dozen or so of them, suddenly exploded.

These creatures’ dead bodies actually created a cloud of poison fog.

The area within a 10-meter radius was suddenly enveloped in poison fog.

This was another ability of these zombies: "Poison Fog Mechanism!"

It would automatically trigger with each zombie’s death.

The critical point was...

This group of zombies was originally clustered together, and after the explosion, the other zombies behind them were also caught up in it.

"Boom!"

Chain explosions.

Puf puf puf!

A large amount of green poison fog began to spread across the entire Underground Palace Square.

Of course...

There were still some zombies, with teeth bared and claws waving, using the cover of the poison fog to rush towards the two people.

"Slow Healing!"

Tang Rou’s complexion changed, and she immediately applied a status effect to both of them.

The poison fog would cause a poisoning effect, making a person lose health continually; the amount of blood loss depended on the monster’s attributes.

Although the blood loss at the beginning of poisoning wasn’t much, the poisoning effect had a characteristic that as the duration increased, the layers of poisoning would accumulate and the speed of blood loss would become faster and faster, until eventually the blood loss accelerated!

Slow Healing could delay this state; because it could continuously restore health.

Of course, relying solely on Slow Healing was not enough to counteract such poison fog, it required purification to remove the poisoned state.

But being in the poison fog would continuously apply the poisoned state, and after purification, the poisoned state would quickly return!

However, Tang Rou was using Slow Healing + Purification + several other low-level healing skills combined, striving to prevent her teammate’s poison layers from stacking too high. Under such circumstances, they were able to continuously resist the poison fog.

This was an experience Tang Rou had learned from past battles.

Ye Xuan originally wanted to wait until the poison fog cleared before making a move, but seeing Tang Rou’s handling of the situation, he couldn’t help but admire her, truly worthy of being Blue Cloud Academy’s number one Priest.

Therefore, he did not hesitate and directly charged through the poison fog.

Although he quickly entered a poisoned state, he didn’t care about it in the slightest.

In the blink of an eye, his longsword had killed a dozen or so zombies that were rushing in under the cover of the poison fog.

"Protective Barrier!"

Ye Xuan shouted loudly at Tang Rou.

Tang Rou, who was fully focused on maintaining the status of the two, did not hesitate after hearing the command and directly activated the Holy Light Shield, enveloping both of them within!

Meanwhile...

Ye Xuan directly took out several round objects from his inner space and threw them towards the group of zombies.
