Chapter 19 - Demon Knight

However, she was also very curious. Hades had entered the Eternity Continent at the same time as them. Why was he so much stronger than them, who were rich and had a union?

Moreover, Hades did not seem like a player who spent money. Otherwise, he would not have sold equipment in exchange for gold coins. Rich people rarely cared about gold coins.

"Alright, quickly pick up the equipment. I'll take my leave first."

James Williams' voice came from afar. Looking at the silver equipment, gold equipment, and gold coins on the ground, he could not be bothered to pick them up. Instead, he ventured deeper into the camp.

In fact, he had already made some settings so that all the spoils of war would belong to the leader. Hence, regardless of who collected the items, they would all end up in James Williams' backpack.

After hearing James Williams' words, the members of the Rose Union rushed towards the gold equipment crazily, and then picked them up happily.

[Ding! Congratulations on picking up 30 gold coins. According to the party distribution rules, they now belong to the leader, Hades!]

[Ding! Congratulations on picking up a damaged gold bow and arrow with Serious Injury Effect. According to the party distribution rules, it now belongs to the leader, Hades! ]

[Serious Injury Effect: After attacking an enemy, the enemy's HP regeneration would be reduced by 50%!]

[Ding…]

[Ding…]

Looking at the continuous game notifications coming from above her head, Tina felt a wave of resentment from her chest. She placed her hands on her waist and complained, "Damn Hades! He is clearly the one who killed these monsters and these items all belong to him, but he is too lazy to pick them up! Are we here as free labor to pick up after him?"

Laura, who was beside Tina, tugged at her. She had learned her lesson and started comforting Tina, "We'll be getting the first kill global banner without the need to do anything after all."

"But I've even spent 600,000 gold coins!" The more Tina thought about it, the angrier she got. She sat down on the ground and Laura had no choice but to speed up and try to keep up with Hades.

Meanwhile, James Williams did not hear Tina's complaints.

There were already hundreds of skeleton soldiers behind him. Some of them were melee soldiers, some were skeleton archers with bows and arrows, and some were even skeleton wizards. It did not bother him anyway since melee and ranged soldiers could not get close to him.

Occasionally, some skeleton soldiers who got close to him would be killed by his energy wave.

Along the way, James Williams did not waste time killing monsters. He merely attracted the monsters but did not fight them. His speed was very fast. When he arrived at the first cave, he used an area-of-effect skill and was prepared to kill the small monsters and the boss altogether.

Of course, if Tina saw this scene, or if the people from other unions saw it, they would definitely be shocked. Top players and professional players could not even clear this dungeon. However, James Williams had planned to lure the monsters and kill them along with the boss?

[Demon Knight]

[Type: Boss]

[Level: 15]

[Attack: 265]

[HP: 2,060]

[Skills: Demon Charge and Skeleton Demon Body.]

[Description: A respected light knight who was framed by a demon during a mission, resulting in his death. After that, he transformed into a demon and became a weapon that guarded Dark Swamp.]

Sigh... James Williams let out a deep sigh. A sad and tragic boss.

However, all of this did not affect him at all. Voodoo Domain! Voodoo Barrier!

The moment the domain-type skills and Little Orange's Energy Fluctuation were released, the boss's and the skeleton soldiers' speed reduced drastically. In addition to that, James Williams' Sisley Ring had also triggered the Electric Shock effect.

For a moment, lightning flashed in the dimly lit boss cave, and the gorgeous skills were reflected on the walls.

The Demon Knight was the first boss of the Dark Swamp dungeon. Its HP was not very high, but it was very resilient. Its Skeleton Demon Body skill allowed all the power of the skeleton soldiers nearby to be focused on it alone.

Moreover, if he was hit by Demon Charge, James Williams would be slowed by 50%. Moreover, the enemy's attacks would also deal an additional 10% damage to him. There were now more than 200 skeleton soldiers in the cave and every soldier who hit him would deal an additional 10% damage. He would die without a doubt.

"Arrogant human, you actually dare to come here alone. Face my Demon Charge!"

Boom!

The Demon Knight rode on the skeletal warhorse and broke through the Voodoo Barrier before charging over. Fortunately, James Williams was prepared and managed to dodge this attack. However, he failed to dodge some of the nearby skeleton soldiers' attacks. As a result, he instantly lost 700 HP.

However, at this moment, the Demon Knight only had more than 800 HP left. Little Green suddenly launched its attack, Corrosive Fangs, and instantly tore a large hole in the Demon Knight's chest. However, there was no flesh or blood inside.

- 456!

Looking at the astonishing decline in its HP, James Williams looked at his own health and thought of using his HP to increase his attack power.

- 120!

- 264!

- 186!

James Williams' health bar and the Demon Knight's health bar started to drop rapidly.

With a boom, the Demon Knight fell and turned into a pile of rotten bones.

James Williams took a deep breath. He only had one-third of his health bar left.

In the cave, the last words of the knight echoed, "Thank you, brave adventurer. My soul has been imprisoned in this cave for so many years. Thank you for killing me and freeing me. My soul is finally free..."

At this moment, equipment dropped to the ground.

There was a piece of black ore floating on the ground, as well as a pair of complete high-level gold boots.

[High-level gold boots: 40 points increase in agility. 30% more chance of triggering Evasion in battle!]

"Hiss..."

James Williams had not expected for a pair of boots with special attributes to drop. After all, his current pair of boots did not have any additional attributes.

'I can switch out my current pair of boots and sell it,' he thought to himself.

At this moment, Tina and the others finally finished picking up all the equipment and gold coins on the ground. When they were ready to go after James Williams who was in the cave, a notification sounded.

[Ding! Congratulations! Your party member, Hades, has successfully killed the boss, Demon Knight!]

Seeing the notification, everyone rubbed their eyes.

This...

Hades had actually killed the boss!

Tina could not believe this news. She even suspected that she was dreaming.

'Impossible! Is there a bug on Hades?' she thought.
