Chapter 331 - The Escape Begins
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was not that Mike had not fought with Ragnaros before. It was just that Ragnaros has used this move once.
However, the last time he used it, the sky was covered with dark clouds, but it did not seem to be as strong as it was now.
The best proof was that after the battle ended, and when Mike went elsewhere, he did not hear anyone talking about the dark clouds in the sky anymore.
Now, after Mike had used the Space Travel Bracelet to move from Sarco City to the Volk Plains, he could still see the dark clouds in the sky.
This was enough to explain how dire the situation was.
It was very likely that the entire second world continent had already been covered by the dark clouds.
Mike looked at the dark clouds in the sky and did not want to waste too much time.
He was not sure if his strength was enough to defeat Ragnaros. After all, he was currently in a weakened state, and his opponent had added the restriction of using 50% of his strength.
Under such circumstances, Mike had to increase his strength to as much as he could.
First, the first thing he had to do was to use The Law to turn the skill Thousand Shadowed Slashes into a passive skill!
Mike took out The Law from his backpack.
This black book had been stolen 200 years ago.
Mike did not know why it had not returned to the Death God Arthas, but now was not the time to think too much.
He immediately used The Law. The black book emitted a black light, and in the next moment, countless options appeared in front of Mike.
Without any hesitation, Mike immediately changed Thousand Shadowed Slashes from an active skill to a passive skill.
Thpusand Shadowed Slashes (god-tier passive amplification): Every attack automatically carries 2000 sword auras!
Seeing the new effect of Thousand Shadowed Slashes, Mike was not surprised at all.
Logically speaking, a skill that received a god-tier passive amplification should be very strong, but the effect of Thousand Shadowed Slashes did not seem to have changed much.
However, Mike was very clear that this skill already had an enhanced effect. Before the Thousand Shadowed Slashes received a boost, it had already been weakened once.
This was because there was a limit to the use of The Law.
Converting an active skill that had a cooldown and needed to be charged up to cast a spell into a passive skill would weaken his original effect. Changing the weapon’s additional effect to one’s own passive skill would also have this kind of weakening effect.
This was because this effect originally required the use of a weapon to be effective, but after changing it to a passive skill, it could be used with other weapons, so there should be a weakening effect.
Other than these, pets skills, mount skills, special effects of equipment… everything other than passive skills that were converted to passive skills needed to be weakened.
This was because passive skills were the most cost-effective skills.
Many times, one would not even need to do anything for them to have the desired effect.
After converting the Thousand Shadowed Slashes into a passive skill, Mike did not modify other skills.
This was because the Thousand Shadowed Slashes was an active skill. There would be no god-class passive amplification effect, so there was no loss in converting it into a passive skill.
However, if the passive effect on the Greatsword of Meredith or the Sword of the King was converted into a passive skill on the character, then it would be seriously weakened.
Before obtaining a more suitable weapon, Mike temporarily did not consider converting these two pieces of equipment into a passive skill.
Currently, this was the highest level of strength that Mike could achieve.
In the sky, the dark clouds gradually began to churn.
Although the dark clouds above were dense, not a single drop of rain fell.
The entire land was as dry as a desert and it was extremely hot.
Mike quietly looked at the dark clouds in the sky and took out the Sword of the King and the Greatsword of Meredith.
The Greatsword of Meredith in his left hand, and the Sword of the King in his right hand!
Then, he transformed the Greatsword of Meredith into theUmbrella of Meredith.
With his current condition, the bud on his chest had not been taken out of his body. He was extremely weak, and it would be almost impossible for him to defeat Ragnaros.
What Mike needed to do now was to prepare for the most comprehensive defense.
He needed to use any blocking skill to repel the physical attack, and then use the Umbrella of Meredith to block the magic attack.
As for whether Ragnaros would have a special attack that was neither a physical attack nor a magic attack, that would be something that could only be discussed when the time comes.
Although Mike’s eyes were fixed on the sky, he also divided some of his attention to the private message window.
He was waiting for the good news of the completion of the potion to arrive.
Only then would Mike have a certain chance of defeating Ragnaros!
Before the message came through… A hole appeared in the middle of the dark clouds in the sky.
Although it was called a hole, it was actually the dark clouds that had spread out from the center.
At the edge of the clouds that parted there was a bright red flame.
An angry roar sounded from the middle of the parted clouds as if it was going to shake the entire continent.
“I’s you again… You pesky ant!!!”
A huge pillar of fire shot out from the hole, and it was aimed directly at Mike.
When Mike saw this scene, he revealed a smile. Although he did not have the capabilities to fight with Ragnaros now, he had enough self-protection ability.
The easiest way was…
Escape!
The next moment, Mike disappeared on the spot.
‘When he reappeared, he had arrived at the highest floor of the Tower of Challenges.
It looked to be the same as usual. There was nothing here.
‘When Mike arrived, a purple magic circle appeared on the floor.
Then, a black gas appeared from the magic circle. Arthas’s figure slowly rose from it.
“It’s you. Why are you here, kid? Have you killed all the followers of Ragnaros? Hehehe.”
Arthas’s laugh was usually very cold, cold enough that it made people’s teeth chatter from it.
However, Mike did not have time to waste with him. He immediately nodded and said, “That’s right. I’ve killed all the followers of Ragnaros. Now It’s time for you to give me a reward.”
Mike’s eyes were fixated on the black robe on Arthas. He was not worried that Arthas would deny it, because this cooperation was issued in the form of a mission.
As long as it was a mission reward, even a God could not deny it.
Arthas looked at Mike and revealed a satisfied smile.
He muttered to Mike as he slowly took of the black robe.
“You know, although this robe isn’t a divine artifact, I still quite liked it. However, since you’ve really completed the mission, of course, I’ll have to give you this robe as a reward.
“However, you might not believe it, but 200 years ago, there was a kid who made such a joke to me. He said that he once helped me deal with Ragnaros… what nonsense, he was clearly just a small useless human.
“I’ve long forgotten that kid’s appearance, but I still remember the joke that he said. I didn’t expect that someone would actually turn this joke into reality today.”
