After the Shadow Walker monsters died, they lost all their strength and deflated like balloons, turning into balls of light that were the size of fists. Looking across the Shadow Corridor, the corpses of the monsters were strewn everywhere.
What a great haul!
This was the good thing about Main Plot Dungeons. The Boss was powerful with high drop-rate, and the small monsters were vicious, with hundreds of them spawning at once. The Shadow Walker monsters dropped items such as
Shadow Particle
,
Soul Powder
, and other types of channeling materials. There was even a small chance of them dropping Anti-Darkness Potions to increase their resistance against the shadows.
They received a total of 90 gold coins, over 300 Shadow Particles, as well as over 100 Soul Powder from the thousands of monsters. These totaled to a value of around 200 gold coins. That barely made up for the cost of casting Cursed Rain. Other than those items, they obtained over 60 bottles of Anti-Darkness Potions.

At the end of Shadow Corridor is the Shadow Queen. Her clothes… wow, are so revealing. However, you guys should not stare, especially not at her sensitive body area.
Lin Jie warned his teammates.


Fat Cattle and Zheng Ziliang, these two rascals, would definitely not be able to resist the Shadow Queen.
Shadow Queen was actually not a believer of the Holy Light Temple. She was just an extremely beautiful woman who had caught the eyes of Caesar the Great. The most absurd thing was that every time Caesar the Great sent a lackey over to deliver her a present, he would end up
falling in love
too. In the end, almost every man in the City of Light ended up favoring the Shadow Queen.
As such, she had been banished. After being exiled by the women in the city, she had been recruited by the Holy Light Temple. She had shocked everyone with her great talent in Dark Shadow Magic and subsequently became the Shadow Queen.
After hearing his words, the eyes of Zheng Ziliang and Fat Cattle lit up.
Hehehe, yes, we know. We will try our best to let our eyes wander.


After you enter battle mode, if you look at any parts other than those below her knees, you may enrage her. Whoever sets off her Enraged Mode and cause the team to die will have to pay for it.
Lin Jie sneered.
Only when the two heard about the possibility of causing the team to die did they switch to a serious expression. The looks on their faces showed that they understood and would make sacrifices for their team.
The few girls looked at them scornfully. It’s just looking away from the Boss, right? Why were they making such a big deal over it?
At the end of the Shadow Corridor was where the second Boss, Shadow Queen, resided.
Everybody was stunned the moment they entered the map.
There was a beautiful bed made of amethyst, exquisite furniture, and a luxurious chandelier. The area looked as if it was built on a cosmic galaxy, just like the Shadow Corridor, and it looked fantastical. The Shadow Queen was lying on her bed with only a thin and translucent fabric covering her body. Her delicate and elegant body was enough to make people’s blood boil with lust. On top of that, the way everything was just barely showing made her even more seductive…


It was a good thing Lin Jie had warned his teammates to look away from the Shadow Queen. Otherwise, before the battle even began, those guys would have lost half their blood from a nosebleed.
[Shadow Queen] (Boss)
Level: 40
Health Points: 750,000
Magic Attack: 1,541-2,121
Defense: 500
Note: Any gaze at her will cause the Shadow Queen to be enraged.

Humans, are you here to admire my beauty?
asked the Shadow Queen in a seductively sweet voice. However, everyone listened to Lin Jie’s warning and refused to lift their heads, only staring at the Boss’ calves and nowhere else.

Hmph, you don’t even dare to look at my beauty!
The Shadow Queen scorned, and shadow flames burst out from her body. Her magic attack was increased by 30% and would last until the end of the battle.
However, Lin Jie knew that it would not simply be a 30% increase in attack if they were to actually look at her body. The Boss’ chanting speed and Movement Speed would greatly increase. That would be the real terror!


The Shadow Queen was different from other Bosses as she had three different states. Her normal state, enraged state, and a transformation at the last stage.
Unlike the Boss Guardian Eller, she did not change her state solely based on her health bar. As long as one did not look at her sensitive body area, she would not be enraged. She would only undergo her last transformation when her health was in danger. Without a doubt, her sensitive body area was determined by her. Other than the part below her knees, she would think that they were looking at her sensitive area.
This was also one of the reasons Lin Jie had dared to challenge her straight.
The Main Plot Dungeon Holy Light Temple instilled the idea to
search for clues
in players. This meant that they had to make use of the language, props, and missions in the game to search for the clues that could defeat the Boss. There was naturally a method to kill the Shadow Queen. In his past life, players had found a clue and come up with this way: to bring female players into the dungeon. On top of that, those female players would have to punish the NPCs who tried to woo the Shadow Queen before entering the place, whether it was to kill them or beat them up.
With that, the team would attain the Shadow Queen’s acknowledgment, and she would maintain a normal state throughout, with a 45% decrease in stats. Although her skills would remain as powerful, the difficulty of killing her would drop greatly.
Of course, the reward for killing the Boss would decrease too.

Go! Remember to look at her feet to see her position. Don’t lift your heads,
commanded Lin Jie. The main tank immediately rushed forward and launched Shield Strike, attracting all the aggro.
Shadow Arrow! -1,854!
Shadow Arrow! -1,968!
The Shadow Queen revealed all of her strength. The two shadow arrows hit The Heavenly Shield and Mixed Breathless and depleted their health bars by half! Following her arrows immediately was s Spirit Scream, which sent the two Shield Specialists into a state of petrification.



Spirit Immunity!
Mixed Breathless cast the skill to hold off the Boss’ attack.
The Heavenly Shield was petrified for 5 seconds before he regained control. He had an immunity skill as well, but since Mixed Breathless used it already, there was no need for his. Otherwise, if the Boss were to use Spirit Scream again, the two main tanks would not be able to resist her attack. That would be the end for them.
The team members had great chemistry at this point.
The Shadow Queen’s normal state was a Dark Priest who specialized in shadow skills. However, she was a Spellcaster of Curse as well. Her attacks were high, but they were not very threatening. The only thing to watch out for was that her attacks gave a random 1 to 5 stacks of
Lurking Shadow
.
[Lurking Shadow]: Adds a curse on the target. Every stack can cause your next attack to increase by 10% critical damage and 20% attack damage. No matter how strong the main tank was, with consecutive stacks of this curse, they would still be killed instantly.
The next attack was Spirit Control. The Shadow Queen would randomly pick a player outside a radius of 10 yards and cause them to head towards her uncontrollably. Once the player touched her, she would enter a state of enrage. She would then use Shadow Sacrifice to kill this player instantly. The resultant explosion would deal damage that was equivalent to that player’s highest health to the rest of the team members.
Once a player was put under control, they would have to
kill
him before he touched the queen in order for him to return to normal. Otherwise, there was a chance for the entire team to be wiped out!

Lost Camel, become my sacrifice!
The Shadow Queen pointed at him, and Lost Camel’s name immediately turned red. His body turned grey, and he ran straight towards the Shadow Queen.

Kill him!
roared Lin Jie and charged forward. His Army Obliteration, along with Shield Cut and the other team members’ long-distance attacks, instantly
killed
Lost Camel. The grey color left his body as he returned to normal.
With Lin Jie’s terrifying high damage output, nobody could
live
to reach the Shadow Queen. He let out a sigh of relief. Of course, the other members of Savage Blade were glad that this person was abnormally strong.



Codename Lone Wolf, become my sacrifice!

Lin Jie’s body trembled, and his skin turned grey. He charged forward with Wild Charge and Holy Light Winged Armor at an insane speed. He was so fast everybody saw a flash of shadow fly by their eyes as he headed for the Boss.

Ice Control, Extreme Freeze!

Fortunately, Baili Changcheng’s reaction was quick, and he managed to cast a spell in time to freeze Lin Jie. At that moment, the distance between him and the Shadow Queen was less than 1 meters apart.
The Heavenly Shield quickly followed up and used his shield to push Lin Jie back. He roared,
Concentrate your attacks!
Upon his command, a few rushed up and surrounded Lin Jie. Everybody there focused their attacks on Lin Jie with all their might. After a series of slashes and explosions, they were finally able to save Lin Jie from the queen’s control.

Jie, take off your defensive equipment. They are as thick as your skin. There’s too much pressure for us,
said Zheng Ziliang. Everyone’s damage against Lin Jie was less than 500 points, and this guy actually had over 5,000 health points!
Lin Jie nodded and immediately unequipped his Kiara Beast King Armor and Boots of Mad Dog. His stats were indeed a little too terrifying. One false step, and he would have gotten his entire team wiped out.
If they did not manage to control Lin Jie in time and let the Boss set him off in an explosion, every member would have suffered over 5,000+ damage. Nobody would have survived.
As the Boss’ health bar dropped, she began to use her Spirit Control more often. At last, the Shadow Queen reached her most terrifying state!

Lost Camel, Red Dust, Domestic Fat Cattle, Wantless, Bu Yi, become my sacrifices!


Mass Shadow Arrow!

Mass control! Mass Shadow Arrows!
Other than the five players who were called out, everyone else was attacked and had their health bars dropped by half! At the same time, those five people headed towards the Boss at high speed. The hardest part was here! They had to release the five people. Otherwise, there would be five sacrifices, and everyone would die.

Death Grip! Water Surge! Hunter’s Forward Charge!

Lin Jie unleashed his prowess. He grabbed one of them with Death Grip while he attacked another with Water Surge and charged towards another to control him. He was dealing damage as he drank his health potion to heal the damage caused by Shadow Arrow.
Zheng Ziliang’s Mechanical Gargoyle grabbed another of the five players and threw him far away before biting him to shreds!
Star Kill took control of the last player and used a Bandit’s skill to instakill him.
While everybody was busy trying to release the five people under control, the Shadow Queen continued to cast her mass Shadow Arrows unrelentlessly. Each hit dealt over 2,000 damage! The healers were unable to keep up. Netherblue and Star Kill died as a result. In order to protect Bu Yi, who was a Holy Priest, Zheng Ziliang tanked two shadow arrows and died as well.
Their team members had decreased!
However, the Shadow Queen continued to call out players and put them under control!

Codename Lone Wolf, become my sacrifice!


Fck…

Lin Jie’s trembled, and he was once again under control! Normally, those who were put under control once would not be called again. His luck was just terrible!
Other than Lin Jie, Gray Wind, and Zheng Ziliang, the two Holy Paladins, I’m No. 3, and I’m No. 2, were called. The five of them placed down their weapons and headed towards the Boss.

I’ll go and hold them get.
The Heavenly Shield and Mixed Breathless gave each other a look and nodded, before rushing furiously towards them.
