Chapter 52: Earth Spirit Oz
Zhang Yangâs party revived one by one. Luck was not something you can control. Thereâs really
nothing you can do about if something went bad and luck did not favor you.
On their second run, Hundred Shotsâ first <Silencing Shot> was already a miss, leading the team
âWhat the f*ck is going on!? I swear that this is just an easy boss, but how did we get ourselves
in this freaking shitty situation!?â
âFatty, I think itâs your karma biting back at you. This is probably a payback for peeping at your
neighborâs little sister.â Zhang Yang joked.
âGo to hell little Yang! Iâm a true gentleman! Why would I try to peek under a girlâs skirt?â Fatty
âBig Bro! Zhan Yu didnât say anything about peeking under a skirt. Did you just dig your own
grave?â Drizzler giggled away happily.
Zhang Yang frowned, suddenly feeling envious of Fatty Han. âWhy did you address him as Big
Bro and Iâm the uncle?!â
âLittle Yang, youâre the type that gets old quickly. Donât be jealous of Fatty Hanâs eternal
youth!â Fatty Han reached out his hand to pat Zhang Yangâs shoulder but his hands just went
through his shoulder like airÍž they are still in the soul state.
The five of them revived again and proceeded towards the Water Spirit Wattland. âIâm pretty
sure that all of us are used to the strategy by now. Winning or losing depends on luck now!â
Zhang Yang unsheathed his sword and pointed it to the air. âLetâs go!â
90%, the first <Hail Storm> was disrupted by Fatty Han.
80%, the second <Hail Storm> was disrupted by Hundred Shots.
There was no âMissâ this time while the bossâ HP dramatically dropped. In a while after,
Wattlandâs HP had almost reach its red zone.
âDonât let your guard down! What needs to be disrupted must be disrupted. What needs to be
evaded must be evaded! Donât get us all killed at 1%!â Zhang Yang warned. He was not looking
forward to repeating the process all over again.
âAlmost there! Ahhh! I can see it. The glowing luster of gold pieces! Ahhh!! Almost there!â
Drizzlerâs strange feminine cries filled the atmosphere, and her attacks got faster and wilder in
And the boss finally fell.
âDing! You and the party members around have killed Water Spirit Wattland. Obtaining 25,250
Experience points (50 points party bonus)!â
âAww yes! We are the best! YEAH!â Drizzler was jumping about in joy, much like a little girl who
had just won her first teddy bear in a circusÍž the rest of the party members just smiled happily.
Zhang Yang smiled with satisfaction. He was pleased to see the team working hard together,
achieving victory hand in hand. His vision of seeing the team together became clearer.
Zhang Yang then clapped his hand to get their attention. âAlright, guys! Itâs time to open the
âOh! I wanna touch it! I wanna touch it!â
âNo! I want to do it! Let me do it!â
Fatty Han knees felt weak as he heard the cousins fighting over the right to open the corpse.
âA-Ah girls? Stop fighting. Come, touch me! Iâm pretty nice to rub around. I assure you that
youâll be extremely satisfied after a session with me!â
Same rule, same game, and Little Snow won another round of rock-paper-scissors. Drizzler
looked sadly at her fist making the shape of a rock and sighed.
âHow could I always lose at this game?â
âThatâs because youâre a big idiot!â Zhang Yang sighed. He could not believe that she did not
Drizzler got up with her hands on her waist, angrily speaking with her cheek bursting with
anger. âWhere did I go wrong?!â
âThis game only needs one of your hands to play. Your playing hand was behind you but their
other hand was out in front. I donât know why your other hand would have the same gesture.
Thatâs why everyone could see through your act. Even a dummy could know what youâre
playing next in scissors-paper-stone! And if they canât see through you, theyâre as dumb as you
are!â Zhang Yang explained in his stoic face, holding back his urge to laugh out loud.
âKyaaa!!!!â No wonder Drizzler could never win her elder cousin sister in this game! No, she
never stood a chance because of this habit of hers!
âHan Yin Xue!! Iâm cutting ties with you!â Drizzler screamed from the top of her lungs.
âRight, and this is the⌠hmm I canât recall the times youâve wanted to cut ties with me.â Little
Snow replied her screams nonchalantly, ignoring her and reaching out for the corpse to open it.
The others may not show it but they had been waiting for the equipment excitedly.
[Frost Crown] (Green-Copper, Metal Armor)
âHey, little brat. Letâs forget about the system roll and settle this with a game of rock-paperscissors!â
âSneaky little kid!â Drizzler rolled her eyes and quickly rolled for the equipment. Zhang Yang
laughed and rolled for the item as well. He won with 84 points.
[Briskly Crown] (Green-Copper, Leather Armor)
Fatty Han gave up the equipment humbly and offered them to Hundred Shots again.
âDing! You have distributed 10 silver pieces!â
As the body started to disappear, Fatty Han got upset, âThatâs it? Two equipment only?â
âUh, yeah. Thatâs about right. Getting two equipment in a 5-man dungeon is already considered
quite good!â Zhang Yang nodded.
âAnd itâs all just hats! Tch! This boss sure has some weird hat collecting habits, huh.â
âThis first boss would only drop helms and boots. Weâre lucky enough to get all helms.â Zhang
Yang explained. âAlright then. Letâs proceed to the next boss and claim the âFirst Clearâ
The team was filled with thirst for victoryÍž everyone was eager to win the fight. Their morale
could never have been higher.
After the first boss, the element changed from water to earth. The next enemy is a huge earth
elemental with 7 to 8 smaller earth elementals around.
[Inflated Earth Elemental] (Elite)
[Deflated Earth Elemental] (Normal)
âSigh. These smaller minions are quite troublesome!â Zhang Yang frowned as he rubbed his
forehead. He missed the days where he could just kill off skill-less minions in Bangar Crypt.
âItâs pointless to kill the smaller ones. As long as the big one is still alive, it will quickly respawn
the dead minions! Still, we canât drag the battle too long or else the big one will
command the small ones to self-destruct. Each of those pesky little minions could cause 200
damage per explosion. Youâll actually get blasted and literally be at cloud 9!â
This chapter is scrapped from readlightnovel.org
âSoâŚwe are supposed to fully focus on the big one before it commands the small ones to
Shush! Zhang Yang rushed over with <Charge> along with Drizzler doing the same.
With Zhang Yang there to pull in the minions, the others did not have to worry about aggro
problemsÍž they just focused their attack on the elite monster. With such strong focus fire, it was
defeated fairly fast. The party then used all their AoE skills to clear of rest of the surviving
Hunterâs <Barrage> and Berserkerâs <Tornado Cleave> were AoE skills, and they were much
stronger than a Guardianâs <Thunder Strike>! But neither one of those skills could be compared
to Zhang Yangâs 200% damage <Horizontal Sweep>! Stacked with the powerful Grey-Silver
sword and the <Eagle Eye> skill, the final damage was truly remarkable!
âZhan Yu, I want your <Horizontal Sweep>!â Drizzler was feeling envious.
Drizzler tried to tempt him with something else to make him yield, âBut I can give you Little
Fatty Hanâs earâs suddenly twitched. Little Snow may not have the best beauty complexion but
that ridiculous body of a succubus was truly something worth. Furthermore, the in-game
appearance and real-life appearance are not necessarily the same. There was still a chance that
this lady might look like a goddess in reality!
âYou little brat! You must be sick of living for so long now! Are you so eager to die?â Little Snow
âDonât worry, Drizzler! Iâm here to protect you!â Fatty Han stood out with his chest up high.
âQuickly! Reveal her address!â
âSo what if she told you. China is such a big place! Can you really find it out?â
Zhang Yang laughed. âTch! Who knows? We might be in the same city!â
âWeâre living in Zhou Su City. How about you?â Drizzle asked.
Zhang Yang and Fatty Han froze at the same time. âWhat a coincidence! Weâre also living in
Zhou Su City!â Zhang Yang flinched. Zhang Yang did have some suspicion that they were living
âAh! This is destiny! This is fate!â Fatty Han began to feel extremely grateful.
Drizzle giggled happily. She blinked her big eyes and said, âLittle Snow is living at No.105, Shi Zi
Fatty Han began to chant the address like a mantra, fearing of forgetting the address later on.
Zhang Yang shook his head. If memory served him right, No.105, Shi Zi Street was the police
station! Thinking of it, he recalled the policewoman he met earlier that morning! The soft and
supple sensation of those melons. They were surely ranked number one if he compared them
with a previous encounter in his previous life!
Zhang Yang smiled evilly. The thought that he could Fatty Hanâs face when he would discover
the truth of that address made Zhang Yang refuse to let him know about the police station.
The party went onwards and after 20 minutes of fighting more small minions, they arrived at
the entrance of the second boss.
[Earth Spirit Oz] (Green-Copper)
There was a large brown-colored Earth ElementalÍž its size looked sturdy and enormous, being
as high as 15 meters tall. Even without a visible weapon, the spiritâs own gigantic body gave off
a certain kind of pressure.
âWhatâs the plan?â they all asked. They âknewâ that Zhang Yang was a beta player!
Zhang Yang walked up confidently. Several days before this fight, he had been squeezing all of
his brain juice to remember all of Marzerwayâs skills and fight strategy, which was why he
could casually explain everything as if he already knew it all.
âThis boss is basically a physical attack type. His attacks are like a bulldozerÍž very strong and
powerful, which means weâll need to depend on Little Snow for this round as well!â
Little Snow turned to Zhang Yang and winked seductively. âIn that case, I want some overtime
âCousin! Would it kill you to just stop behaving like a slut?!â
âHeh heh heh. Iâm used to it!â Little Snow then winked at Drizzler, sending a cold shudder all
âThis bossâ first skill is <Open Wound>. He will only cast this on the person with the highest
aggro, which is me. If he casts this skill on anyone else, that would only mean that I died! This
is a DoT attack, so I will lose 100 HP every second. The damage will not be affected by defense
As a Guardian, he absolutely hated skills that would ignore his defense attribute.
âThe second skill is <Smash>! This skill will also be cast on the person with the most aggro,
which is again, me! <Smash> itself does not do any damage but it stuns me for 2 seconds and
casts a debuff, increasing his attack frequency by 100%! This skill cannot be blocked or evaded,
which means I would have to take it head on! The most dangerous part is when Iâm hit by it. I
canât voluntarily move to block any attack. The boss originally has a very fierce attack and I
could get killed off any time!
Little Snow rolled her eyes glamorously and said, âWell then, I must ask for a raise!â
âCousin, can you please be a little more lady-like?â
âAnd where am I not a lady?â Little Snow threw another wink. Her glamorous and show-off
behavior made the other party members a little awkward to put up with.
