MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks Chapter 123

Chapter 123 - Fall of the King

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Fire Swords suddenly pierced through the party members, reducing every party member’s HP by 90%.

“Hahahaha, do you see the power of a Superior Fire Elf now? You people are no match for me!”

Shakra’s body fused back together as it let out a maniacal laugh.

Shakra only had 1,000,000 HP left, with no DEF. In other words, any attack that hit him would deal the maximum amount of damage.

[-4912]

[-3212]

[-1223]

Everyone started to attack all at once.

With Li Yi’s single critical hit arrow, he had chipped off more than 4,000 points of HP. Though alongside his party members, they had managed to deal more than 100,000 HP worth of damage within just 10 seconds.

There was not much to the fourth stage as approach to it could vary and was entirely up to personal preference. Yet the strategy that Pretty Good Mood had opted for was burning the boss down 1 .

“Bam!”

Shakra’s body exploded once again and countless Fire Swords, again, started to pierce through the party members’ bodies. However, when he fused back together once more, his depleted HP was somehow recovered by nearly a half.

Every time a Fire Sword pierced through a body, Shakra would gain a portion of the HP. So one should not underestimate this last 1,000,000 HP because once they actually faced it, they would realize that this 1,000,000 HP phase was way scarier than 10,000,000 HP.

“Do you want to sacrifice your life to Shakra? Tall and Mighty, rise from the dead!”

Shakra laughed maniacally as he pointed at Chen Yang’s corpse. Then, Chen Yang stood up, waved his staff and summoned 2 Fire Elementals, sending an attack towards the party.

This was Shakra’s best spell — controlling a player’s corpse!

Unless the party had no deaths in the first three stages, this would not happen. Otherwise, in this stage, the party members that died would all be controlled by Shakra and therefore, becoming the party’s enemy.

“F*ck him, why was I targeted?” Chen Yang screamed, but he still could not control his body as he summoned another Fire Elemental.

Turning into an enemy, the summoner’s abilities was increased significantly. Originally, players were only allowed to summon one pet at a time, but since it was not limited now…

“F*cking hell, if I could summon pets like these while I wasn’t being controlled, who the hell could even match me?” Chen Yang started to imagine.

“Everyone dive 2 in and nuke Tall and Mighty!” Pretty Good Mood shouted. Everyone in the party immediately shifted their target and focused solely on completely wrecking the horror version of Chen Yang who had more than 100,000 HP.

“Do you want to sacrifice your life to Shakra? Qing Pingle, rise from the dead!”

From time to time, Shakra rotated between transforming itself into Fire Swords that pierced them and controlling the players’ corpses. This had caused the party members to be up to their necks trying to keep up. After more than 10 minutes, not only did Shakra’s HP not go down, it had returned back to 1,000,000!

“Do you want to sacrifice your life to Shakra? Tall and Mighty, rise from the dead!”

The poor Chen Yang who had just fallen once more did not even have time to catch a break before he was once again summoned by Shakra. He could not help it. Who was the one who told him to have summoner as his class? With unlimited Fire Elementals, it was naturally the boss’ first choice.

“Mood, you guys focus on the corpses and I’ll focus on nuking the boss,” Li Yi raised his hand and suggested.

“Alright!” Pretty Good Mood nodded his head.

The fourth stage was truly headache-inducing. Other than burning down the boss, there really was no better option.

Li Yi stood alone against Shakra. With a loud roar, his Violent Bear King used the Enhanced Charge and lunged forward.

[-4210]

[-1202]

Li Yi and his Violent Bear King’s combined attack was extremely terrifying, seeing that Shakra’s body was forced to split rapidly. Even after the Fire Swords Pierce, Li Yi’s relentless attacks did not falter as he still continued to deal massive amounts of damage.

At this point, the surviving HP of the remaining members were all below 90%. As well as at this phase, the players’ corpses could also be revived and that made the situation excessively dangerous. The party’s two mega healers, Wu Old Wolf and Little Elf from the Magical Realm were drenched in sweat as they desperately threw out heals. They kept rotating between using the Mana Fountains 3  and Advanced-Level Mana Recovery Potion, but the heals were still not enough.

“Bam!”

Shakra’s body once again split into Fire Swords, piercing the group and causing Little Elf from the Magical Realm to scream in pain.

Half of the party members still had not been healed…

As the Fire Swords pierced through, the party members with 10% of HP left did not die but rather had 9% of their overall HP taken away. That had left them barely alive with 1 point of HP left to survive.

Li Yi immediately stopped and went back to helping his party fight off the corpses.

He could not afford to be greedy. If the piercing attack hits once more, all the party members with low health would die.

Repeatedly rotating between these situations, every attack sent the party closer and closer to the edge of their seats. On the other hand, Shakra’s HP was slowly decreasing as well, from 900000 HP, 800000 HP, 700000 HP… 200000HP!

As Shakra’s HP hit 10,000 points, the party members anxious breaths became increasingly rapid.

The most dangerous phase had arrived.

“Rise from the dead everyone! Muahahahahaha… Sacrifice your lives to the great Lord Shakra!”

Shakra pointed down at the ground, instantly forcing every dead player to stand up. They then sent all sorts of attacks the party members’ way.

This phase was completely absurd because, at this point, Shakra’s body would go into an invincible state so players could not attack him. On the other hand, every single player that died would have their corpses revived repeatedly. Whether or not a party could deal with this phase would determine the success or failure of the strategy!

“Guild Master, it’s all up to you now.” Pretty Good Mood was out of ideas as his gaze shifted towards Li Yi.

Based on his plan that he had crafted with Li Yi, this phase would be completely left up to Li Yi to resolve!

Li Yi had long prepared himself for this moment. As Shakra was still laughing maniacally, he sneakily used Camouflage to leave the battle. After unequipping the Violent Bear King, he summoned the Mutated Little Wild Boar.

The skill Camouflage could be called the Ultimate Bug-Exploiting Move. Other than Li Yi, which archer could have managed to swap out pets in the middle of a boss battle?

“Go, Old Pig!”

The Mutated Little Wild Boar grunted before it immediately used its ultimate suicidal skill as soon as it entered the battlefield. Then, it furiously used Taunt repeatedly on the revived player corpses.

All of the players’ corpses were all aggro’d over, including all the pets that were summoned out. Instantly, the entire area was cleared and that took a huge load off the remaining party member’s shoulders.

“This is why lowly lifeforms are lowly lifeforms. Even after they’re revived, they still can’t get the job done. Only lifeforms created personally by the hand of God can truly be considered noble and unmatched!”

Shakra came out of his invincible state and all of the player corpses fell once more. His Siphon skill then appeared, sucking up 99% of all the remaining party members’ HP and Mana.

Everyone only had 1 HP and 1 Mana left!

“Accept your death and punishment!”

Shakra’s HP surged to over 30,000 points. His body was starting to explode and fuse back. Through repeated exploding and fusing back, he used the fragmentation to attack the remaining party members.

Right then, Li Yi instantly pulled out a Cursed Scroll (Shrink) and waved it in his hand. Poof poof poof poof…

All the party members instantly shrunk to the size of a thumb which also made their ATK drop down by 10 times at the same time.

Shakra was flying around midair exploding himself over and over. Every time he exploded, he would damage himself, dealing around 1000 to 3000 HP of damage each time. On the other hand, since the party members were the size of thumbs, the fragmentation could not even hit them…

Although the damage output was slower, the risk was reduced exponentially. Those who were out of mana could recover mana, whereas those who were low on HP could restore their HP. Once they were fully recovered, they could finally start counterattacking.

If one got hit by Shakra’s explosions, it would basically reduce their HP by 2,000 to 3,000 points. More importantly, that was the reason as to why Li Yi went to fight the black and white bosses — it was to defeat this phase.

With the aid of Cursed Scroll (Shrink), this phase was completely effortless. Yet without it, it would be extremely difficult.

Siphon, Explosion, Siphon, Explosion…

The Shakra in this phase could only be described in two words — totally absurd!

“Feels so f*cking good…”

The party had a rule that in the midst of a battle in an Instance Dungeon, only the commander may speak. However, because of how effortlessly this current phase went, at least 7 or 8 players let out a squeal of euphoria.

To be able to mindlessly deal damage without even moving in such an absurd phase, how was it not euphoric?

The entire party’s admiration towards Li Yi had once again increased by a level.

There was no longer any pressure, for their shrunken state would remain for half an hour. Despite their ATK being lowered by 10 times, they could just go into autopilot dealing damage. They could completely not give a sh*t about the boss’ furious explosion attacks.

Over time, Shakra’s HP slowly decreased from 100,000… 90,000… 50,000… 10,000…

“How can you lowly lifeforms manage to defeat a lifeform created personally by the hands of God? I refuse to believe this! I refuse to believe this!”

When Shakra’s HP dropped to around 5,000, he started to go completely insane. He inhaled deeply a few times which caused his body to continually expand. With a final bang, he tried to execute his final self-destruction.

The explosion radius this time was so huge that even when they were in a shrunken state, they would still not be able to avoid it. However, Li Yi had already made preparations for this.

“Ice!”

“Curse Purification!”

With Fire Ice’s feminine shout, Li Yi’s cursed state was removed. He then immediately used Violent Bear’s Protection to block off Shakra’s self-destruct completely.

[-5500]

Shakra’s terrifying self-destruct attack took off 5500 points of LI Yi’s HP, nearly one-shotting him.

Shakra’s remains dropped to the ground as the system notification tone rang.
