Super God of War Chapter 432 - Death Singer

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Just was Chaos In The Sky was celebrating and preparing to collect his loot…

"Army of the Dead!"

Kaboom— Kaboom—

The ground shook violently and was blown open by the Dreadlord, exposing complete, damaged, and broken piles of skeletons. With a roar, the strange dark energy condensed into a large patch of green light. A loud sound was heard as the light turned into countless fireflies and dropped down.

When a firefly came into contact with a corpse, it was as if a mushroom was grown on it, and a patch of long dark-green rotten flesh would appear. They were disgusting and pungent. At that moment, the surroundings were filled with light green poisonous fog.

Kacha— Kacha—

The sounds of grinding teeth could be heard as Flesh Eaters with dark-green rotten flesh began to climb up! It did not matter if their bodies were broken. The Flesh Eaters devoured each other to form complete bodies. They dragged their long, gigantic hands and roared with anger.

Chaos In The Sky was about to lure away the Boss and check if Codename Lone Wolf was dead. Unexpectedly, the situation changed. His heart trembled as he rushed to retreat. He stared into the messy ground with wide eyes, hoping to see what exactly was happening.

Character Z waved his blade and created a whirlwind again, which cleared the dirt in front of him. Just then, a green shadow pounced on him. The Flesh Eater's ugly face inched closer, and its rows of dirty teeth bit him!

Slap!

-684!

Character Z instinctively struck and decapitated the Flesh Eater.

At that, Character Z relaxed. 'Apparently, it's a bunch of noisy pieces of trash…'

However, to his surprise, the body of the Flesh Eater exploded.

"Self-Destruct?" Character Z panicked, only to find out that there was no damage. Instead, his body was covered in the corpse's sticky goo, which lowered his Attack Speed by 5%. Other than being disgusting, it was nothing.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Just then, a series of explosions resounded from the ground, or better the corpses littering it, followed by a rain of goo—it was a shocking sight!

After that, the Dreadlord's body slowly appeared. It was covered in the goo from the corpses, and its Movement Speed was significantly slower. It was randomly landing strikes with its skeletal fist. The hundreds of Flesh Eaters began to buzz, which was a special sound given out by the Undead, and their skill "Taunt". With each punch, the Dreadlord killed dozens of Flesh Eaters. However, the goo from their corpses kept staining its fist, slowing the Boss' Attack and Movement Speed.

Finally, after the deaths of 200+ Flesh Eaters, the Dreadlord was unable to move from being drenched in the corpses' goo.

Suddenly, Lin Jie's calm voice sounded out of nowhere. "You want to kill me with the Dreadlord? Nice, I'll let you two have a taste of a Boss' strength."

At that moment, the pupils of Character Z and Chaos In The Sky constricted into the size of a pea. They were utterly shocked. The countless fearsome Flesh Eaters had moved aside and formed a path. Like the king of the Undead, Lin Jie walked out slowly. Death Singer's eyes were glowing in a strange dark green light, while Bloodsweeping Cloak was fluttering behind Lin Jie. Coupled with the Flesh Eaters' threatening presence, Lin Jie looked extremely powerful and intimidating.

"Flesh Eaters, attack!"

With a command, Lin Jie controlled hundreds of the Undead corpses! All of them charged forward wildly and exploded. Character Z was surrounded and trapped in the goo of the corpses like a butterfly in a spider web.

Boom—

Behind him, the Level 60 Dark Gold Highlord, Dreadlord, shook its body and got rid of 1/3 of the goo on it. Lin Jie's eyes flashed, and he immediately used Wild Charge. He zoomed past Character Z and disappeared from sight.

'I'll leave the rest to the Dreadlord,' thought Lin Jie as he stored his Death Singer and equipped the Feather Drop Gem instead. He used Holy Light Winged Armor and leaped down the mountain with haste.

In Lin Jie's previous life, everyone referred to Death Singer as "divine equipment". According to the number of corpses around, it could call upon a large number of Flesh Eaters! Those Flesh Eaters would have terrible stats, but with the Taunt skill, they were a good choice to be used as cannon fodder to buy the owner, at least, 2 seconds.

In actual fact, the Flesh Eaters had low intelligence. If one were to make them use Taunt, they would all just stand together and Taunt until they got wiped out by the boss. If they could be controlled individually, Lin Jie would even be able to take on the Dreadlord.

The real reason Death Singer was known as divine equipment was the Flesh Eaters' second skill: Self-Destruct.

Self-Destruct: When a Flesh Eater actively explodes, it will deal damage that is equivalent to its maximum health value (100 points) to targets in a 5 yards radius. When a Flesh Eater is killed, it will shoot goo from its body in a 20 yards radius, which would reduce Attack Speed and Movement Speed by 5%. When it is stacked 20 times, the target will be trapped. The effect lasts for 10 seconds at most, depending on the target's Strength Judgement.

A trap like that was not strong against those with equipment that added a few dozens Stat Points. They could break out of the trap if they struggled with full strength. As for the Level 60 Dark Gold Highlord Boss, just shaking its body could get rid of 1/3 of the goo. It could break out of the trap in an instant, which was why Lin Jie had taken the opportunity to escape immediately.

However, the poor fellows, Chaos In The Sky and Character Z, one an All-Agility Sword Artist, and the other All-Agility Bandit had low Strength. They needed at least 5 seconds to break out of the trap. Facing the Boss with its aggro directed everywhere randomly, there was no doubt that these two pieces of trash were doomed!

What Lin Jie did not expect was that the moment the Dreadlord broke out and was about to kill the two people, a Sun Blade Aura descended from the sky and caused all the goo on their body to evaporate!

War of Light, Command Camp.

Commander Tyrese stood proudly in front of the army. She looked at Lin Jie happily and said with satisfaction, "Viscount, you succeeded in killing Varvis that evil Devil, congratulations! I am willing to give you additional rewards."

Lin Jie eyed her and pouted. "I'll say, Commander. You promised to give me the position as the City of Light's City Leader, when is that happening? I've contributed quite a lot to the Holy Church, right? You are patronizing me with just additional rewards, do you think that is right?"

"This…" Tyrese looked at him awkwardly. Paladins had to keep their promise and stay true to their words. She felt embarrassed and said solemnly, "You are the first person to apply to be a city leader through proper means, which is why we need to go through some procedures. If you were like other humans of alternate realms and fought for the title through war, it would not be as troublesome.

"To be truthful, your application was already handed over by Yatasha to the higher-ups and was approved. However, the groups in the empire rejected it. You still have to fulfill some conditions if you want to own the City of Light. Of course, I'll help you as much as I can. After all, it is my promise to you. Unless I die, I won't go against it."

Lin Jie sighed. He already knew that it would not be simple, but he did not expect that even Commander Tyrese would fail. He understood clearly that if he wanted to become a city leader, he still had to fulfill some conditions!

"These conditions you speak of, what are they?"

Tyrese said sternly, "One, sufficient resources. Two, enough manpower. Three, the current city leader, would have to die!"

"I'll take care of the resources and manpower. You don't have to worry. But the city leader… he'll have to die in an accident and not an assassination. Otherwise, it won't be justifiable for you to rise up as the city leader," whispered Tyrese with brightening eyes. "If he were to die, the empire's side would be able to choose a new city leader under the pretext of security problems. That's why he'll have to die quietly. This is something you have to consider."

Ding~

—"Do you accept mission [Accidental Death?]

Lin Jie was surprised. 'What a great mission name! Accidental death? How the heck am I going to handle this?'

It would be easy to kill the city leader directly. But to do it discreetly, that would be troublesome.

Lin Jie quietly left the game state and went online to find the manga known as Detective Conan, which was surprisingly STILL ongoing—with 9,000 chapters to boot—and download it. He was prepared to study it and create a perfect plan for the so-called accidental death.

"Viscount, I believe in your strength. You'll complete this mission. Now, you should—"

"There's no rush. Earlier, you mentioned additional rewards for me." Lin Jie put out his hand and said, "What rewards? You won't give something lousy, right? It should be at least be Legendary equipment, right?"

"Legendary, did you think it's easy to produce something like that? Even the equipment I'm using isn't Legendary." Tyrese shook her head. "The reward I wanted to give you was to bribe you and delay the things regarding the city leader. Now that I've given you the mission, I don't have to give the reward to you anymore."

Lin Jie's eyes widened. 'This damn Commander is too direct!'

"Commander, I don't need any equipment. Just tell me about any secret legend." Lin Jie rubbed his hands. "Just some harmless secret legend that won't trigger any mission or reveal hidden treasures. After you tell me, I'll leave immediately."

Tyrese slightly frowned. "What do you want to know?"

Lin Jie's expression turned serious, and he immediately opened the recorded video. It was a recording of Character Z's battle. The NPCs were already used to this ability of players, and they thought that it was a gift from the Lord God.

Lin Jie pointed at Character Z and asked, "The whirlwind that he used, what exactly is it? It doesn't seem to be a skill, right?"

"Oh? There's actually somebody who grasped the tip of the iceberg of the Seven Spinning Slash? This person is pretty talented. If he were to enter our Holy Church, his achievements would be great." Surprise flashed across Tyrese's eyes, and she asked, "You want to know about this secret legend?"

Lin Jie nodded. "Yes."

"This secret legend is more important than that of hidden treasure spots and the heroes' lives. I can't tell you. You have to rely on yourself to find out," explained Tyrese calmly. "I'm a Paladin who follows the rules of the Holy Church, I can't reveal this piece of information easily."

Lin Jie's eyes lit up, and he immediately bowed respectfully.

'A piece of information that a Paladin from the Holy Church cannot reveal? No problem, I know an old fellow who doesn't belong to your Holy Church!'
