Chapter 183: A battle with the Lich Spearman (2)

Right after the woman and those two gluttons were dragged inside the dungeon. He had wanted to enter too but the Level 30 monster instantly made a move and attacked him with another spear and a round of long flaming arrows.

(A/N: He was referring to mutated harpoon skill.)

Long Haoran did his best to defend while trying to approach the dungeon’s door but as if the lich had read his thoughts it kept him from doing so and pushed him back using the knockback force of those flaming arrows before the monster occupied the spot.

It stood there and was probably waiting for the woman to return to kill her off because of the weapon.

The lich knight caught up with Long Haoran using his [Dash Strike].

The tip of its Gold-Grade Spear wrapped in flames stabbed Long Haoran’s back. "Pest, I got you." It smiled smugly under its black mask.

Long Haoran sensed the hot temperature behind him and quickly enlarge his pan to block it.

The sound of metal colliding reverberated in the surroundings and spared Long Haoran from getting impaled.

It worked. Long Haoran was surprised. The temperature was not unbearable anymore and the damage he received reduced by a huge chunk.

The lich also noticed this. It became pissed off and launched another attack.

[Abysmal Fire Combo Strikes- Stabs the target numerous times and deals damage of 50% Strength on each strike]

The sudden chain of attacks with the fast strikes hitting the pan caused Long Haoran’s hand to loosen slightly his gripped on the pan and made his lost his balance. He was knockback ten meters away.

The lich quickly leap and raised its spear to aim at the man’s head.

Long Haoran stabilized himself and took out the ladle. His eyes flashed with ruthlessness.

The lich who was about to pierce him with the spear’s blade only felt the air around him become colder before he saw chains emerged out of nowhere and coiled around his limbs and soon wrapped around his body. "What is this!"

[Ice prison is used.]

[Ice prison- Restrain the target using chains of ice for ten seconds, and deals magic damage equal to 50% of the inheritor’s Int.]

The damage indicator screen floated above the monster’s head and only reduced its HP by a small amount.

The lich’s wrists was also squeezed and crushed by the chains and the spear on its hand slipped to the ground.

Despite it being covered in flames, Long Haoran disregarded the pain and grabbed the spear and stored it inside his inventory before dashing passed the imprison monster who was enraged by his audacious action towards the entrance of the dungeon.

Sadly, the ice prison didn’t even last for five seconds before he heard an explosion. He craned his neck and saw the monster had already escaped and run towards him. "You pesky ant! Give me back my weapon or I’ll make sure you’ll die a slow and painful death!"

It released five abysmal harpoons but Long Haoran took advantage of it, blocked the pan, didn’t put strength in his legs and he let himself be pushed forward.

He was sent flying, rolling on the ground for more than ten meters but it shortened the distance to the dungeon by more than half.

The lich saw the guy’s action and became angrier. The flames on its legs intensified enhancing its speed.

Its AGI stats were much higher than Long Haoran and outrun in just a few seconds. Even without the weapon, it was still a big threat and Long Haoran knew it too. A little bit more...just six meters more and he can enter the dungeon...

Long Haoran panted while looking ahead.

Unfortunately, a silver grade spear appeared on the lich knight’s hand and executed [Cyclone’s Slash].

Long Haoran was taken aback when he saw another spear. He still have spare weapon.

The lich spun its body horizontally along with the spear.

Long Haoran had no choice but to stop running and blocked it.

Clang-

Force of the impact pushed him back once again, making his efforts in vain. This monster is annoying. He said so while spitting the blood on the ground and stealing glances at the dungeon’s door. He needs to hurry up. Those three may have been in a dangerous situation right now.

"Don’t make me laugh. This ground will be your grave. I will make sure of it. You’re the first weak prey that ever lasted this long but..." The fire in the lich’s eyes burned wildly and dash towards him releasing a series of attacks.

Combo Strikes, Cyclone Slash, Leap Attack, Force Strike, Raging Spear, Critical Strike. All of these rained down on Long Haoran, giving him no break in between. He raised his pan to defend it all his might until his palm had bruises.

The lich cackled maliciously detecting the fatigue of its prey. "You want to defend all day. Then eat these all you can!"

Long Haoran panted. Beads of sweat rolled on his scalp and his HP was also continuing to drop. Anyone would feel despair at this point but despite under incredible pressure, he was still able to think clearly and have a glance on his inventory.

His eyes quickly skimmed through the slots and when he saw the pot, a glint flickered in his eyes.

The cackling Lich saw the gap on the man’s defenses and aimed his spear there. "You’re dead."

Suddenly black liquid was splashed on him. "You pes.." He was about to curse but when he heard sizzling noises, he looked down and saw the area that were splashed were melting and even extinguished his flames.

A searing pain spread and the lich screamed and tried to wipe the liquid but no avail his hand had also melted. "What is this?"

[-2000]

[-2000]

[-2000]

[-2000]

"..."

Long Haoran looked at the drops of black liquid left at the bottom of the pot before mumbling, "No wonder that artifact was damage." Even this Level 30 monster couldn’t stand its toxicity.

But...

It was not the marvel at the woman’s poison master potential. Long Haoran used the opportunity to land a hit.

Bang-

The lich was occupied by Li Chunhua’s ultimate poisonous soup and couldn’t react on time. It was pushed back.

Long Haoran hurriedly sprinted towards the entrance.

"I won’t let you!" The melting Lich regained his footing and raised his hand in the air and a magic appeared under Long Haoran’s feet.

The temperature in the area rose several notches and soon enough soil thorn in the shape of spear popped. Long Haoran dodged them.

The lich smiled and summoned another batch of magic circles above him.

"I already said you’ll die here today! Don’t think you’ll leave here unscathed!"

[Abysmal Fire Harpoon Array]

The harpoons shot towards Long Haoran. Long Haoran blocked but this made him pushed forward and to be hit by the thorns leaving wounds but he didn’t stop running. Just a little more...

More harpoons came towards him.

His HP dropped.

Just a little bit more...

"Just give up."

Give up? It was never in his vocabulary. The determination in Long Haoran’s eyes remained strong.

[You used Karmic Lotus Petal Dance- Creates a whirlwind of Lotus Petals that deals fire, and poison damage equals to 3% of the inheritor’s Int and a certain chance to cause 3-seconds paralysis on the target.]

The lich stopped chanting and had to retreat when it saw a tiny tornado coming in its direction.

How can this guy have some high-level spell when he isn’t chanting or waving a magic staff.

But...

[Teleportation Talisman- Epic Grade]

The talisman was torn and the lich disappeared on the spot.

Long Haoran was about only one meter away from the dungeon when a shadow emerged. It was the lich.

"That was a good exercise." The lich laughed wickedly and the spear was thrust in his stomach.

Long Haoran’s pupils constricted and he was too late to block it. However, when he though he would perished, he did not feel pain at all and what’s more bluffing was his HP only dropped by [-50] points.

The smile on the Lich disappeared as a lamp appeared above its head.

[Luminus Talis Lamp: Mana Charging: 900%/100%]

[All of your stats have been dropped by 90%]

"Impossible! Did you do it?" The lich checked his stats and was angry at Long Haoran.

But Long Haoran was also confused.

"It wasn’t him. It was me." Li Chunhua emerged from the back of the lich and grabbed its neck. "Did you have fun?" Her eyes were shining with rage and so was her voice. If she was any second late, this guy would have succeeded in killing Chef Long.

Relief washed over Long Haoran when he saw she was perfectly fine before his eyes gave the lich a cold look. "Don’t touch him. He’s mine." He yanked the lich out Li Chunhua grasp and gave it a rough beating.

Li Chunhua and two summons cheered from the sidelines and even took out some snacks before laying a picnic mat on the ground. "Go Chef Long! Go Chef Long!"

"Kya!" Go Go Handsome Brother! Beat him to a pulp!

"Ji ji ji!" Go Go Handsome Chef! Beat him! Beat him! Stomp on him too!
