The Boss King actually disguised himself as a novice village chief?!
Chapter 340 - 290: The Beginning of Suffering

Chapter 340: Chapter 290: The Beginning of Suffering

"How is he here?" Nie Erxi Legend muttered, puzzled.

"I get it!" the Undead teammate exclaimed. "Game feature! They’re throwing powerful NPCs into the mix to challenge us. I’ve been itching to measure myself against him."

Every Undead who had joined the ranks of the New Nobility treated Lind as a hypothetical enemy. What’s the goal when gearing up? Obviously, to revel in the thrill of defeating different bosses.

Compared to the Undead’s excitement, the NPCs were simply astonished.

Could it be that the Blood Clan had acquired Duke Lind’s blood? This was a big deal. They might face an incredibly powerful enemy because of it or even because of that...

"Aaaaah, attack!"

The Undead in the team suddenly charged forward.

"You guys!" The captain of the Riven Soldier squad had long known that the Undead were not easy to command, but seeing them already charging into the center of the battlefield, the captain was helpless.

A person’s reputation precedes them like the shadow of a tree. In recent times, stories of Duke Lind had been too many, causing unease and fear in their hearts when facing him.

The Undead rushed up to Red Spirit Lind.

His expressionless face, like the other Red Spirits, only had the most basic combat instincts.

Red Spirit Lind suddenly lifted his left foot and stomped on the ground, unleashing the Bonecrusher strength from the path of the Snake Catcher. As his foot hit the ground, it shook the tiles with unceasing force, causing an explosion.

In the booming blast, the first Undead to reach Lind were knocked off balance, and their health points were halved in an instant.

Nie Erxi Legend, who was halfway up, heard his companion’s terrified shout: "What the heck is this skill?"

The dust was suddenly swept away by a storm, and Red Spirit Lind took a step back. His chest and throat swelled, spewing out a surge of toxic mist.

All the teammates in the front were wiped out.

A slick combo, and the Undead known as Raven City’s T1 unit, were instantly taken down.

"This is too strong, how are we supposed to play?"

The last sounds Nie Erxi Legend heard were his teammates’ complaints as they died. He couldn’t afford to worry about them anymore as he looked ahead at the figure striding out from behind the curtain of poison, its red and gold form intermingling.

Red Spirit Lind continued to walk forward with an unhurried pace.

He didn’t have flashy special effects emanating from his body, and though he always maintained a human appearance, he exuded an extremely terrifying oppressive force.

The gold armor wrapped in red light shone brilliantly in the sunlight.

Nie Erxi Legend, with swords in hand, tried to close the distance and force his opponent into melee combat rather than let him use those various skills. But from behind Red Spirit Lind, burning wings of flame suddenly unfolded, carrying him swiftly into the sky.

Locking onto Nie Erxi Legend’s position in the air, he fluttered his Flame Wings and came crashing down.

Explosion!

Health points depleted.

Now he understood how those crater-like pits on the ground were made.

When Nie Erxi Legend came back to his senses, he had already been resurrected.

He couldn’t help but complain like his teammates: "How are we supposed to play this!"

They hadn’t been enjoying the thrill of the game for long, skiving off by virtue of their numbers. Now, facing Red Spirit Lind, it seemed like all those skipped lessons had to be made up for here.

"There’s a Red Spirit Lind here too!"

"Oh come on, there’s one over here too!"

"And there’s one here as well!"

The clearing operation in Fox Hole Village and Town encountered its biggest obstacle—level 20 Red Spirit Linds, unarmed, appeared in every area.

He awaited each Undead to come for their ’make-up classes’.

Seemingly, the only option for the Undead trapped in the maze was to dutifully ’attend their classes’.

...

Fox Hole, Hedgehog Tavern cellar.

The slender, fair hand appeared even more pale under the glow of the candlelight.

The hand was pinching an aphid, the very insect bred from the residual blood of Lind.

The Crimson Lady had not noticed Lind’s presence before; she had been tracking the old Hunter, Charles.

Although she had never been to Black Marsh Kingdom, she had heard from monarchs about the existence of the organization of Hunters, those bastards with the goal of hunting down the Blood Clan, who had surprisingly tracked her to Rand Kingdom.

Fortunately, the Hunters were of mediocre strength, giving her plenty of time to play them to death.

But the appearance of Lind shocked her, his powerful aura made her dare not get close.

"Lind Armand."

Everyone living on this land would hear his name, and within the past year, Lind’s actions in taking control of Mountain Demon Castle had been swift; everyone knew that Rania Hedwin was now Lind’s canary.

Yet he continued to claim allegiance to the Queen outwardly.

"The monarch must be very pleased with him!" The Crimson Lady looked at the aphid in her hand, thinking that with Lind’s body, perhaps a second monarch could be brought back to life.

It was no longer merely "planned" for the Blood Clan to unify Rand Kingdom.

Moreover, they would have an even more legitimate claim to Rand Kingdom than Queen Rania.

Of course, for the Crimson Lady, Dragon Power was above all else; she was tired of being the warden of the vineyard, she wanted to attend the ball too.

"Just keep fighting with Lind Armand," the Crimson Lady licked her lips with the tip of her tongue. With her power, she could not possibly obstruct the army outside, but Lind’s ability was so strong that he alone had forcibly halted the progress of the extermination troops outside.

The only downside was that replicating Lind’s blood was not easy. Lind only needed to feed an aphid a drop of blood to easily create a Red Spirit, but she had to use her own blood, the precious Blood stored in the cellar, as well as various Magic Potion ingredients and magic enhancements, to finally barely mimic some of Lind’s power.

All the precious Blood remaining in the cellar had now been squandered.

She had to compensate for the insufficiency of power herself.

The breach of Fox Hole was bound to happen sooner or later, but she could return to the castle with this merit and claim her own glory.

Transformed into a Red-Winged Crow, the Crimson Lady flew out of the cellar, circling above Fox Hole, looking down at the battlefield she had created.

Suddenly, a Wind Blade swept through, nearly striking the Red-Winged Crow.

In a flurry, she flapped her wings to stabilize her form in the air, only to see that a Red Spirit Lind, strolling leisurely, had already looked up at her.

This is bad!

These Red Spirits were already difficult to control, and Lind’s Red Spirits were even more so.

They possessed a strong territorial sense; if an enemy did not enter their range, a Red Spirit Lind would not act and would even ignore if the enemy left, but as soon as one entered their territory, they would immediately attack.

Now, in her panicked and haphazard flight, the Crimson Lady had carelessly intruded upon the territories of multiple Red Spirit Linds.

Ordinarily, the Undead would not pay attention to a crow flying overhead, but it was completely different if that crow showed a health bar.

[Crimson Lady Tracy, Level 23]

[Health Points: 2700/2850]

"Crimson Lady!"

"What the heck is that?"

A figure with wings ablaze with Flames rushed toward the crow.

It was "Teacher Lind."

Then another Lind also flew out.

As all the Undead looked up, the Red-Winged Crow was chased by the flying figures and bombarded with flames; fireworks exploded in the sky.

The health bar of the mysterious Crimson Lady rapidly decreased, visibly depleting.

In the end, the Crimson Lady fell towards the ground.

"Teacher Lind is so strong."

It turns out that even the BOSS is no match for Red Spirit Lind; the suffering endured before suddenly seemed reasonable.
