Chapter 92 The Blessing of the Ancient Conquerors, Learning War Throwing

As a seasoned professional at LV36, Li has a keen sense of experience and a sharp intuition, and her judgments are accurate in an instant.

The alienated ancient conqueror is indeed a mechanic-based boss. The strategy is to damage its body and then attack the human faces that emerge from its snake-like body.

These faces don't have health bars or defense; they only have durability, which decreases with each attack.

Moreover, they eat controlled food.

So the strategy is simple: the main pressure actually falls on the person who draws aggro, since they have to hold the boss's aggro while also dealing damage.

Of course, other people can also deal damage when you're in a team, but that could lead to aggro shifting.

In the game "Dark Fantasy", the BOSS's intelligence is not low, so even dedicated fairy players cannot guarantee that they will always draw aggro.

However, right now, since the main pressure is all on Li's shoulders, there's no need to worry about the BOSS suddenly going crazy.

Therefore, Youche and Qingling were in charge of the mechanics, while Li could just focus on defeating the bosses, which reduced the difficulty and suited their respective abilities.

"Haaah!!"

After a prolonged battle, Li faced the skeleton that had shrunk to half its original size and was now only left with one arm. Finally, she unleashed a flying kick, destroying the skeleton's body for what seemed like the umpteenth time.

You Che immediately locked onto the face that appeared and, with Qing Ling's help, dispersed it in one go!

"Guaaaaaahh ...

With a final wail, the ancient conqueror collapsed helplessly to the ground. Its body flashed with purple light and began to shrink rapidly, and the surrounding wasteland environment also dissipated.

In the blink of an eye, You Che and the others returned to the ruins they had left behind. The ancient conqueror had also reverted to his original human-sized soul form, and was leaning weakly against the obsidian, panting like a living person.

Upon seeing You Che and the other two, he slightly propped himself up and said, "—I'm sorry, I lost control."

See, it can talk now, can't it?

What should I do if I can't understand what my child is saying? They're probably faking it; a good beating will fix it.

Of course, jokes aside, there's no need to provoke him any further, so You Che stepped forward and politely said, "Respected ancient king of the South, it's good that you've regained your senses."

"I apologize for my abrupt words. I thought you were still unconscious, which is why—"

Li glanced at him sideways: You didn't say that just now.

You Che gave her a look: Don't you understand how to talk nonsense?

The ancient conqueror sighed and replied, "—It's nothing, it has nothing to do with you. It was indeed my lack of consciousness. To know the final fate of my kingdom is to have fulfilled a long-cherished wish."

This guy's attitude was quite good, which was very different from his image in the previous text and plot descriptions. However, this was also because he was clear about his position—and had just been beaten up by You Che and his gang.

He then looked at You Che: "Since you know my identity, you must not have come to this altar by chance. Speak, what do you want with me?"

Finally getting to the point, You Che's spirits lifted, and he immediately said, "It is like this, Your Majesty, countless years have passed since your time, and now, the dark races have once again launched an invasion against the various races on the continent—"

He succinctly recounted what had happened since the time of this ancient conqueror, including the arrival of the Dark Ages and two Dark Rebellions, as well as the beginning of the third.

Upon hearing that this was the third time the Dark Race had launched an attack on the various races of the continent, the ancient conqueror leaped more than a meter into the air amidst his purple flames, roaring furiously, "What have the four great nations been doing all these years! With the combined strength of all nations, can't they even destroy a Dark Race?! The Eastern and Western Kingdoms annexed my land, and this is how they've managed to fight?"

Yu Che remained silent. The events of that year were quite complex in the official setting, and even the official accounts hadn't filled in the details of the history.

He doesn't intend to comment casually.

After venting his anger, the ancient conqueror looked at You Che again: "—So, you came to me seeking my help?"

You Che nodded: "According to legend, in the final moments of the first Dark Turmoil, in order to fight against the army of the dark races, you sought forbidden power, but in the end, you were betrayed by your short-sighted subordinates before you could complete the ritual, so—"

The ancient conqueror laughed self-deprecatingly: "You don't need to make it sound so nice for my sake. Saying I was betrayed is actually my biggest problem."

"Why was I able to rise again after the fall of my kingdom? It was because I came into contact with the 'forbidden' and sacrificed my wife, who had been with me through thick and thin, to gain power."

Korea:"!"

"After that, I was invincible, unified the south, and then married and had children, expanding my family and establishing a new clan—and then came the invasion of the dark races."

This ancient conqueror tore away the embellishments of legend and revealed the truth: "In order to combat these natural disasters that were far more powerful than those of the past enemies, I sought help from the two countries in the east and west, ceding territory in exchange for reinforcements."

"At that time, my health was already declining. In order to be able to command the army in battle, I once again sought forbidden power, and this time I offered up all the bloodlines of my family."

Hearing him say these things, You Che remained calm, while Li was dumbfounded and almost couldn't help but speak, but she managed to control herself.

"During the ceremony, a few members of your family learned the truth and betrayed you halfway through the ceremony, instead sealing you inside the altar."

Yu Che helped the ancient conquerors, who were momentarily at a loss for words, finish the story: "After the invading dark races were repelled, the fleeing family members sought the support of other countries, splitting the Kingdom of Rihe and once again creating the current situation of multiple countries standing side by side."

The ancient conqueror sighed again: "It seems this will be the case. Among my sons, there is truly none who can shoulder the responsibility; it is no wonder the kingdom has fallen apart."

He looked at You Che: "So, although I don't know why you came to me, I'm afraid I can't help you in my current state—"

Yu Che then said, "You can do it. Although the initial ritual was only half completed, and you didn't personally gain unparalleled power, haven't you already obtained the crucial ability?"

The ancient conquerors were taken aback: "You mean—the power to change the environment?"

You Che nodded: "Exactly. Your power can temporarily change the world, and that's its most valuable asset, making it one of the trump cards for counterattacking the dark races."

Yu Che knew very well that the ability he used when he was transformed into a BOSS, turning the surrounding environment into a wasteland, was the greatest value of his remnant soul.

The power of the dark races largely depends on their environment, even for Bronya's clones at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Therefore, when she was in Juventus City, she was able to unleash exaggerated destructive power, defeating the same LV70 Duke of the Azure Wolf in one fell swoop, and even breaking through the Obsidian Defense Line barrier. Later in Watchtower Town, she also absorbed the dark power in the maze and almost turned the tide.

While other lower-ranking dark races cannot temporarily strengthen themselves to an exaggerated degree by absorbing dark power like she can, their combat strength can also increase significantly in the right environment.

Today, the occupied border regions have long been corrupted and assimilated by the dark races, but the ancient conquerors had the ability to temporarily reverse this.

However, activating this ability also comes at a price.

"—Do you know that, in my current state, attempting to reshape the land corrupted by the dark races on a large scale would result in my complete annihilation?"

The ancient conqueror looked at You Che and asked this question.

You Che didn't hide anything and nodded: "I know."

The ancient conqueror laughed: "If I remember correctly, this land beneath our feet is now the territory of the Western Kingdom, isn't it? They want to launch a counterattack, but instead of putting in the effort themselves, they want me to be the one to sacrifice myself?"

You Che didn't say anything more, but just stared into the empty eye sockets of the ancient conqueror.

After a moment, the ancient king waved his hand: "—You may leave. I will bestow upon you the power of blessing as gratitude for awakening me. As for the rest, go and find the current nobles and generals of the Western Kingdom!"

As he spoke, he pointed, and a beam of purple light flew out and merged into You Che's body.

[Status Change: Mysterious Mark → Blessing of the Ancient Conquerors]

[Blessing of the Ancient Conquerors: Increases damage dealt to Dark Races by 10%, and all damage related to "Poison" by 20%]

After doing this, the remnant soul of the ancient conqueror shrank back into the obsidian.

You Che didn't try to call him out again, but turned to Qingling and Li: "Let's go."

"Hey, hey, that guy didn't agree to help," Li asked, unable to resist as she walked outside the ruins. "So, we came all this way for nothing?"

Although she didn't have a chance to interject, after listening to You Che's conversation with the ancient conquerors, she understood what You Che wanted to do, and at this moment she couldn't help but worry about what to do next.

You Che just smiled and said, "Don't worry about it. He wouldn't have agreed on the first visit anyway. There will be other opportunities later."

Li paused, then said, "Oh? You even planned that out?"

You Che said, "I guess so. Anyway, this altar is just the beginning. There will be more to come when we get back."

Li raised an eyebrow: "Then I'd like to see just how far you've gone in your calculations."

You Che didn't reply, but gave her a meaningful smile, then called Youzi over, and the group prepared to return home.

Of course, before that, he did one last thing.

[Name: You Che]

Level: 15 (Experience Points: 300/1500)

Available skill points: 2

After defeating the ancient conquerors, the experience he gained leveled him up to Iv15, thus accumulating the necessary skill points.

Without further hesitation, You Che activated the key skill in the throwing skill tree!

The skill "War Throwing" has been learned, but the "Throwing" skill has been automatically replaced.

Yu Che smiled and said, "Alright, now there's no need to add any more points to the Street Fighter class."

Li, standing to the side: "?"
