Golden Shovel Survival: One Lucky Star and One Colorful Hex

Chapter 174 Karthus: I'll Teach That Kid a Lesson with a Requiem
"Isn't this six characters?"

Seti I's voice was mockingly ruthless. The last notes still lingered above the city walls when he crashed to the ground like a meteorite. The shockwave he generated exploded from the point of impact, shaking goblins within twenty meters, causing their internal organs to shift and their eyeballs to pop out of their sockets, tracing crimson arcs in the air.

The muscular man, clad in metal plate armor, stood up, the Noxus wolf head emblem on his shoulder armor still dripping blood.

As he moved his wrist, sparks flew from the metal wristband, revealing a cursed tattoo on his forearm: the four ancient characters "Fist Suppressing Mountains and Rivers" twisted and wriggled, as if a living creature was roaring beneath his skin.

Having been granted an advanced intelligence scroll by Mo Lang, he grinned and looked at the Goblin King with an excited smile.

In order to play the long game, Mo Lang did not release all the three-star, five-cost units, for fear of alerting the royal-level players and scaring them away.

But a single three-star Sett is enough to intimidate the Goblin King and the Frost Goblin Queen.

"How is this possible? How did this kid get a three-star, five-cost hero comparable to a royal-level hero so quickly!" Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Sett No. 1, the Goblin King trembled all over, his face filled with disbelief.

"Frost Sister, run! This is a battle we can't possibly participate in!" The Goblin King turned to look at the Frost Goblin Queen, only to find that she had already run five hundred meters away.

The Goblin King was instantly bewildered.

Just as it was about to run away, a sharp sound of wind tearing through the air came from its ear: "Your own life is in danger, and you're still thinking about your sister?"

At that moment, the Goblin King seemed to see his great-grandmother waving at him.

boom!
Jinfu delivered a terrifying punch, like the Rising Dragon Fist of Mount Lu, which sent the Goblin King flying. The Goblin King's massive body flew backward like a puppet with broken strings, only managing to stop after crashing into three giant totem poles.

puff!
The Goblin King spat out a mouthful of blood, its chest armor shattered into dust, and its body was almost smashed through by the punch!
Before it could react, a dark shadow closed in again, its fists pounding wildly on the Goblin King's body like a storm.

The Goblin King was completely powerless to resist, and its health bar kept disappearing.

In the blink of an eye, the Goblin King was reduced to a pile of minced meat.

"Why haven't those emperor-level figures appeared yet?"

The Frost Goblin Queen was so frightened by this scene that she felt a chill run down her spine. A King-level being was no match for an Emperor-level being; she was utterly powerless to resist.

"Want to run?"

Sett glanced at the Frost Goblin Queen with a cold smile, pushed off with his feet, and launched himself out like a cannonball, the shockwave blasting the goblin minions along the way into pieces!
"Frosty Prison!"

Upon seeing this, the Frost Goblin Queen immediately waved her staff and unleashed a skill.

In an instant, twelve ice spikes burst forth from the ground, instantly imprisoning Sett in place. The surface of those ice spikes was covered with barbed runes, emitting a chilling aura, as if to freeze Sett in place!
"Fortunately, it worked."

Seeing this, the Frost Goblin Queen breathed a sigh of relief and started running again without stopping.

"How can the power of ice freeze a man's passion!" Sett's passionate voice rang out.

Then, with a loud "bang," Sett, who was about to be frozen, burst out with a powerful aura. His heartbeat sounded like a god beating a drum, and then the ice on his body exploded!

"..."

The Frost Goblin Queen's lips twitched. "So this is turning into a shonen anime?"

Unfortunately, this was her last thought.

Because Sett's Ascension Charm was triggered, his body radiated golden energy like a Saiyan, increasing his speed several times over, even surpassing the speed of sound. He rushed towards her, then grabbed the Frost Goblin Queen's slender waist with both hands, leaped up, and then plummeted downwards!
With a deafening roar, the Frost Goblin Queen felt as if her internal organs were about to be shattered, and her health was reduced to only one-third.

Before she could even recover from her dizziness, Sett's fists, crackling with golden energy, rained down on her, demonstrating what it meant to have her health bar disappear.

"Sigh~"

Upon seeing this, Mo Lang couldn't help but gasp. As expected of Sett, who was known as the "Powerhouse," his punches were rock hard.

The remaining monsters were easily dealt with by Mo Lang's high-level turrets and defense towers, without needing to deploy any low-cost cards. Thus, the second and third waves of monsters all fell to Sett's fists.

Mo Lang also received feedback from Zhang Sheng and others that sending out reinforcements would not increase the difficulty of their monster siege.

This relieved Mo Lang, who immediately sent out all his low-cost pieces to support other players.

Having three stars and five resources is enough for my side.

"Sett, come up here, let me have some fun down here."

By this time, Draven, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, was already itching to join in.

"I want to go up there too, otherwise watching you guys show off from up there is even more frustrating than not having three stars myself." Swain was also somewhat tempted.

Mo Lang had previously opened a lot of advanced wisdom scrolls, all of which were used by the number one five-cost characters.

"Go ahead and attack if you want. I don't deign to fight the weak."

With his eyes closed, hands clasped together, and legs crossed, Blind Monk Number One floated in the air and spoke calmly.

These words silenced the other three members of the organization.

What does it mean to "disdain fighting the weak"?
"You bald monk, you just love to show off."

Ornn, who had been silent the whole time and focused on forging iron, couldn't help but glance at the Lee Sin sideways before continuing his assembly-line forging life.

fighting?

I only like blacksmithing.

"..."

The blind monk glanced at Ornn and then fell silent.

Even if your own artifact needs to be forged by someone else, you can't afford to mess with Ornn.

What's more, the other party was wearing a mirror and there were two more of them than me!
Can't beat it.

Can't beat it at all.

Mo Lang did not interrupt the debate about his chess pieces.

He's always been easygoing; let whoever wants to go, go. Just don't scare away the top-tier players by having them all go at once.

……

……

On the other side, the many royal-level monsters of the Shadow Isles arrived late, because according to the system's rules, they could only appear in the later waves of monsters.

"Hecarim is just a human kid, is it really necessary to call us all out?" Karthus was speechless, feeling that the other party was making a mountain out of a molehill.

"So you'll be the first one up later?"

Hecarim glanced at Karthus sideways, his tone quite displeased.

"Let him be the first one up. I want to see if that kid is really that amazing."

Karthus said nonchalantly, "I'll teach that kid a lesson with a Requiem."
