Chapter 2072 The King of Melee Undead

Angel glanced at the time; the contact with the Wrathful Sin Beastmen had lasted less than two minutes, and all the Wrathful Sin Beastmen and Skullcrushing Tarantulas had been completely wiped out.

The problem that the more Sin Beastmen are destroyed, the stronger the Sin Beast Generals and Sin Beast Kings become through the Soul Forge has also been solved by the Undead King's characteristics.

The Undead King's Corpse Explosion will destroy the soul flames within the corpse, giving the Sin Beast no chance to burn the corpse and obtain soul flames.

Theoretically, Depp could wipe out all three groups of Sinful Orcs by himself, but the explosion would be so large as to damage the dragon veins, which would be against the natural order, so it can only be used after splitting up the enemy.

"As expected of the Undead King, who is known as the enemy of life, if the hybrid spider monsters in the Lustful Original Sin region had not surpassed you in terms of life level, we would not have been forced to flee for our lives in such a sorry state."

Angel was generous with his praise.

As usual, Depp rolled his eyes with a fiery gaze. As a former top-tier corporate slave who held multiple jobs but only received one salary, he was allergic to praise. He would feel that the other person wanted to take advantage of his labor as soon as he heard praise.

"The bombing isn't over yet; the beast general has survived."

The instant-death effect is so powerful, but it naturally has many limitations. It's generally not very useful against boss-type enemies. Things like [Fatal Execution] are just cheating.

Instant-death skills only have a momentary effect on enemies above LV200. To truly achieve instant death, you need to constantly reduce the enemy's instant-death resistance, which is incredibly troublesome. After the appearance of crops from Helheim, this process became a bit easier, but you still have to feed them to the enemy.

This is why Depp only kept three quick-to-use, low-cost instant-death skills.

After a round of explosions, all the Sin Beastmen below the level of Sin Beastmaster were wiped out, leaving only the three LV350 Wrath Beastmasters who were initially surrounded, and their spider mounts were also half-dead from the explosions.

The Sin Beastmaster was quite capable; he immediately covered his and his spider mount's eyes to prevent them from seeing that eerie, blissful face.

However, their defenses were not thorough enough. The tarantulas they rode had huge egg sacs hanging from the rear. Small skull-crushing tarantulas inside were caught in the sacs, instantly killing the entire spider egg.

This large bag of egg sacs contained a large number of small skull-crushing tarantula corpses, and the force of the corpse explosion destroyed half of the tarantula mount's body in an instant.

The angry beasts were clearly very attached to their spider mounts, howling as they held their dying mounts.

Upon seeing this, Angel immediately took out the Silver Goat Skeleton Shotgun, intending to fire another shot.

This is the source of Angel's extremely high wickedness value, which is his vicious behavior, such as hitting the monster child in front of the monster parents.

Although the mission is indeed to eliminate the monster family of three that caused the destruction, this action will accumulate bad karma points.

However, Angel thought it was a good thing, as it suited his desire to have good karma points without doing bad things.

With just that one shot, and one that was deliberately missed, the tarantula mount howled in agony in the arms of the enraged beast general.

The enraged beasts' eyes were bloodshot with fury. Due to their unprecedented rage, their bodies swelled rapidly, their skin burst, and their power reached an unprecedented peak, while Angel's wickedness value soared.

"Everyone has a happy future~" Angel hummed as he loaded his gun, intending to go again. Opportunities like this, where you can gain bad karma points without doing anything wrong, are rare.

"Wait, wait, wait!" Depp quickly reached out to stop him.

"Why did you give them the chance to go berserk? Couldn't you cripple them first, and then execute the other one in front of everyone?"

“…That wouldn’t be right.” Angel hesitated for a moment before politely declining. “Who are you to say that!?”

"What I did could only be considered rubbing against you or verbal harassment, but what you did was... a crime committed in the act of a husband."

Depp remained silent and charged directly at the three enraged beasts.

The three enraged beasts had extremely keen hearing and could naturally hear Depp's malicious words. They immediately realized their mistake and bit their own tarantula mount to death.

This wasn't just to prevent Angel and Depp from humiliating them and to give their companions a good thrashing; there was another reason.

Three enormous, furnace-shaped soul flames erupted from the body of the Angry Beast General, burning the spider mount in its arms to ashes, and one of the soul flames returned to the furnace.

【Angry Beastmaster - Earthshaker Gorush LV350-LV365】

【Angry Beastmaster - Mad Dog Mogrum LV350-LV365】

【Angry Beast General - Skull Crusher Kahnzula LV350-LV370】

After absorbing the soul flames of their mounts, the three angry beast generals' levels mostly increased. The most astonishing change was that a bulge grew on the top of their heads, with sharp horns that seemed ready to burst out at any moment.

In the realm of the original sin of anger, they will qualify as candidates.

Depp charged alone toward the three enraged beast generals whose levels had been greatly increased, while Angel remained stationary, opening the grimoire in his left hand to prepare his magic.

This situation was somewhat strange. The mage-type Undead King Depp charged ahead, actively approaching three enraged beast generals who were clearly melee fighters, while the strength-type goat orc Angel lagged behind, preparing to use magic.

Of course, in terms of theoretical strength, Angel, who ranks second in the guild, does not have any weaknesses. While his four attributes are balanced, he has a special profession that can reduce other attributes and highlight one attribute while keeping the total attribute points the same.

In addition, there is top-tier equipment, and a massive amount of vice points that corrupt the profession, increasing its lethality.

However, in terms of overall strength, Depp is superior to Angel, because Depp has a huge advantage that cannot be compensated for by attributes, profession, or skills.

That is, technology, judgment, and strategy.

The moment the three enraged beasts approached Depp, they each launched incredibly powerful attacks: Earthshaker Gorush's Earthshaker Stomp, Mad Dog Mogrum's Corrosive Gnawing, and Skullcrusher Kahnzula's Lion's Head Hammer.

"Isn't this head Huo Luo's?"

The three wrathful beasts only saw a blur before the mad dog Mogrum's bite landed on the arm of the skullcrusher Kahnzura.

In pain, Kahnzula the Skullbreaker loosened his grip on the Lion's Head Hammer, which was then seized by a skeletal hand and slammed into the inside of Golash the Earthshaker's knee. As a result, Golash's stomp changed direction, turning from a landing into a kick aimed at Kahnzula the Skullbreaker and Mogrum the Mad Dog.

In the blink of an eye, all that was left in front of Depp was the kneeling Earthshaker Gorush, while the Mad Dog Mogrum and the Skullbreaker Kahnzura had crashed into the mountains and were no longer moving.

Angel shrugged, unsurprised. In fact, apart from his special racial trait as the Undead King, Depp was not suited for the Lustful Region at all.

Because Depp is an extreme one-on-one fighter, he is most effective when facing three or four opponents.
