Heroes' Prison

Chapter 275 - 270: Ghost Axe

Huang Yi’s heart sank. The Black Wolf had been so cautious that even on his own turf, he dared not let his guard down and had put a life-saving measure on himself early on!

"Enemy attack!" The Black Wolf suddenly bellowed, the sound echoing in all directions!

An instant later, the entire oasis seemed to bubble like boiling water, the noise thunderous, as all the bosses from Green State charged over!

This time, Huang Yi had truly stirred up a hornet’s nest!

"I declare, Guifu Heilang—dead!" The next moment, Huang Yi immediately launched Judgment against the Black Wolf!

However, to Huang Yi’s shock, after he initiated his Judgment, there was no response; no dark clouds in the sky, no lightning—it was as if his skills had become ineffective!

"Humph! Did you think your skills could break through my barrier?" the Black Wolf sneered with confidence, seemingly fearless. Once his subordinates from outside arrived, he would be basically safe.

Huang Yi was instantly put on the defensive. He had not expected the Black Wolf’s barrier to be so special, somewhat similar to that of a Respawn Point, isolating all skills, even making his exclusive skills ineffective!

However, Huang Yi wasn’t in a hurry now and continued to attack the golden barrier covering the Black Wolf.

This golden barrier couldn’t last forever; it either had a damage threshold, which upon reaching a certain amount of damage would cause it to disperse, or it had a duration limit, after which it would automatically vanish.

"Humph! Lucky for me I’m naturally cautious, or I would have been killed by an ant like you!" the Black Wolf glared coldly at Huang Yi and snorted, "With your ant-like attack power, you can’t hope to break my Vajra Barrier!"

Huang Yi didn’t respond, attacking the barrier with every second he had! His hammer struck down on it, dimming the golden glow with each hit.

"Boom!" Just then, the surroundings lit up—the straw hut was destroyed by brute force, and a ferocious level 80 werewolf boss rushed in, quickly locked onto Huang Yi, and swiped a paw at him with a swift and fierce velocity, instantly displaying the strength of a level 80 boss!

"Pfft!" Although Huang Yi tried his best to dodge, he was still hit by the wolf claw, sent stumbling back a few steps, and his health points immediately plummeted!

But after his job change, he had gained a new talent, Death Penalty Exemption, which prevented him from being instakilled, leaving him with a sliver of health points, and for the next minute, his attack power would increase by 100%!

"Last Stand!" Huang Yi immediately used his life-saving skill, ensuring he wouldn’t die for the next 10 seconds!

This was the moment he had been waiting for!

Now, with his health at its lowest, his attack power was at its strongest, and he smashed down a Heavy Judgment on the Black Wolf’s golden barrier!

"Boom!" The previously solid golden barrier shook violently, its radiance dimming significantly.

The Black Wolf, who had become complacent upon the arrival of the werewolf boss, was startled by Huang Yi’s fierce attack. At this rate, the barrier would not last much longer before being shattered.

"Thud! Thud! Thud!" Just then, three more werewolf bosses rushed over, starting to attack Huang Yi from all sides, and even more bosses were charging from the distance, soon to arrive.

When they did, they would form an impenetrable wall to protect the Black Wolf, preventing Huang Yi from getting close.

"Shadow Dance!" The next moment, Huang Yi turned invisible again, this time for 10 seconds, and attacking wouldn’t break his invisibility!

"Thump, thump, thump!" Huang Yi disappeared from view, and while the surrounding werewolf bosses couldn’t see him, the Black Wolf’s barrier continued to be hit repeatedly and rapidly dimmed. Huang Yi’s attack power was no small matter now, and the barrier was quickly breaking!

"Eye of the Heavenly Wolf!" Just then, a werewolf mage holding a magic wand suddenly thrust his wand into the ground!

Following that, the gemstone at the top of the wand emitted a faint blue light, which slowly morphed into a bizarre eye scanning over toward Black Wolf’s bedside.

The next moment, Huang Yi’s figure was abruptly revealed—he had only used a common stealth ability, not absolute invisibility, and could be spotted by some stealth detection skills or items.

"Imprisonment!" The werewolf mage immediately waved his wand at Huang Yi, sending a beam of light that hit Huang Yi and suddenly stopped him in place, immobilizing him.

"Special Pardon!" Huang Yi swiftly removed his negative status and continued attacking the barrier over the Black Wolf.

By then, the barrier was extremely dim!

After such a delay, virtually all the bosses from the oasis had gathered around, surrounding the Black Wolf tightly, making it impossible for Huang Yi to get close.

"Oh you fallen souls, please enter into a sleep!" At that moment, an old and eerie voice suddenly came from a distance!

Huang Yi turned to look, and the person who arrived was none other than Overlord! He must have seen the tremendous battle unfolding here and desperately came to help.

Overlord’s skill immediately took effect—all the surrounding bosses fell into a deep sleep, wandering off in all directions like sleepwalkers, moving sluggishly like puppets.

"Move quickly, my exclusive skill won’t last much longer; their souls are too difficult to control, and my energy is almost depleted!" Overlord urgently shouted.

"Hold on a bit longer!" At this moment, Huang Yi had battered the barrier until it was on the verge of collapse, its light dimming to the brink, and in Black Wolf’s eyes, the gleam of fear finally emerged—it smelled the scent of death.

"Boom!" At last, the barrier was shattered, and there was nothing left to stand between Huang Yi and Black Wolf!

Almost simultaneously, all the surrounding BOSSes woke up!

Overlord’s energy had run out, and he could no longer control their souls.

Huang Yi lifted his hammer and smashed it down on Black Wolf one last time!

One hit was all it would take, and Black Wolf would undoubtedly die!

"Thin Burial!" In that instant, a Werewolf Priest threw a life-saving skill faster toward Black Wolf, allowing it to survive for a few seconds without dying.

"Boom!" Huang Yi’s hammer came crashing down, but it carried no threat anymore—Black Wolf was not going to die within these few seconds!

The surrounding BOSSes all charged at him, baring their teeth and claws. Huang Yi’s Last Stand had run its course, and if any of the BOSSes hit him, he would be instantly killed.

"I declare, Guifu Heilang (Ghost Axe Black Wolf)—death!" At the next moment, Huang Yi activated his Judgment skill again!

Without the protection of that barrier, Black Wolf could no longer withstand his exclusive skill!

"Rumble!" The sky turned dark in an instant, and a clap of thunder sounded, with twin bolts of lightning striking down and drawing Huang Yi and Black Wolf into the skies, putting distance between them and the interfering horde of BOSSes!

The BOSSes charged in only to hit empty air; the spot Huang Yi had been fighting in was turned into a deep pit by their onslaught, but they had not harmed him!

"Now, no one can save you," said Huang Yi leisurely high in the sky, looking down at Black Wolf.

As he spoke, he turned his head to survey the scene below.

All the BOSSes were looking up at him, howling, while Overlord was nowhere to be seen, probably having employed his life-saving tactics to quickly flee the area. This reassured Huang Yi considerably—now he had no worries about his rear.

"You, don’t kill me, I, I can give you all my treasures!" Black Wolf’s eyes were full of terror, and his voice trembled as he spoke. He glanced at the storage necklace hanging around his neck and said, "All my treasures are on this necklace, I can give it to you, and I can also sign a guild contract with you, to guard your territory like that scorpion, I’m highly useful!"

"Your death is the greatest value," said Huang Yi. He swung his hammer directly toward Black Wolf.

"Thump!" Black Wolf took the hammer blow squarely.

In the next instant, his massive body exploded into sky-full of flesh pieces, leaving nothing behind.

Black Wolf, a level 108 Holy Domain Warrior who had dominated among his peers, was killed by Huang Yi!

This was his first true killing of a Holy Domain Warrior!

Now, to the Holy Domain Warriors, he was like an ant, almost negligible, but he, this ant, had killed a Holy Domain Warrior. How terrifying was that?

At that moment, a massive amount of experience poured onto Huang Yi, as four streams of warmth burst forth, propelling him from level 60 to level 64—instantly equaling a month’s worth of level grinding!

[System Prompt]: Congratulations! You have earned the [Special Achievement]—[Challenging the Holy Domain], Special Achievement Points +1, 1% chance to deal an additional 10% damage during an attack. [Challenging the Holy Domain]: Kill a Holy Domain Warrior before level 80.

Another special achievement!

This added yet another attribute to Huang Yi, a benefit which typically took extensive time to acquire. Huang Yi’s unique and special achievements together now totaled 10, unimaginable for the average player. For veterans like Dao Feng, Dragon Spike, and their ilk, special achievements were far more numerous, possibly reaching the dozens, giving them a significant attributes edge over others.

However, this special achievement paled in comparison to the main loot of the day—it was merely a bonus reward. What Huang Yi truly valued was the drops from Black Wolf!

After dying, Black Wolf had dropped only two items, one of which was the storage necklace around his neck.

The other was a waist chain he wore, from which dangled a pair of exquisitely crafted small broadaxes swinging in the air. Huang Yi’s gaze was fixed on these two axes because they were identical to the weapons once wielded by Guifu Heilang (Ghost Axe Black Wolf)!

And the legendary equipment his Treasure-sniffing Ability had sensed was none other than these two axes!

His legendary weapon had dropped!
