Chapter 263: Chapter 160: Four Pieces of Golden Armor, the Overlord Level BOSS Appears

’Another Leader Soul and a piece of Tier Three Advancement Material dropped!’

’Could it be... that every Boss is guaranteed to drop these?’

Shen Xing narrowed his eyes as he looked at the loot information before him.

’If they really do have guaranteed drops, then killing all five Bosses would mean at least five Leader Souls, plus five Tier Three Advancement Materials!’

’Doesn’t that mean I’ll have several Tier Three soldier types when I get back?’

At this thought, his right hand couldn’t help but tremble a little.

Suppressing his excitement, Shen Xing continued to command his commanders to first clear out the remaining Dragon Tomb Watchers.

「Several minutes later.」

As the last squad of Dragon Tomb Watchers was wiped out by a wave of [Meteor Shower] from the Hellfires, the clamorous battlefield fell silent.

Only the heavy panting of the Beastmen and the sound of the Inferior Demons flapping their wings echoed in the air.

The ground was littered with the bodies of Half-Dragons, as well as the remains of many Beastmen and Skeleton Archers.

Grand Lord Shen took stock of his losses as usual.

In this battle, the total losses were: 102 cannon-fodder Beastmen, 11 elite Beastmen, 24 Skeleton Archers, 4 Hellfires, and 5 Inferior Demons.

Xia Wanyin lost 32 Light Elves.

The losses were significantly lower than in the previous battle.

"Lord, the cleanup is complete. This is the loot, please take a look."

Hellish Roar handed him a large bag.

[Acquired: Large Soul Stone*5]

[Acquired: Soul Stone*32,041]

[Acquired: Broken Elite Soul Fragment*1,312]

[Acquired: Bright Elite Soul*14]

[Acquired: Broken Boss Soul Fragment*25]

[Acquired: Glowing Boss Soul*1]

[Acquired: Black Dragon Scale (Purple)*2,851]

[Acquired: Black Dragon Scale (Golden)*54]

...

The number of Soul Stones obtained this time was slightly less than the last wave, which was related to the number of monsters.

But it was still an incredible amount. Over thirty thousand Soul Stones and more than a hundred Souls—he’d made a fortune!

Shen Xing nodded in satisfaction, then said in a low voice, "Keep moving forward. Target is the Rain Saint’s crib... scratch that, the remains to the northeast."

The army of more than two thousand moved out again, advancing in formation through the vast Dragon Tomb.

Along the way, Shen Xing checked the loot dropped by the Boss as usual.

Its attributes were similar to the items dropped by the last Dragon Blood Burrowing Worm.

The Soul could give poison-type or serpent-type soldiers an additional 10% Success Rate.

The Advancement Materials that followed were also for poison-type soldier types.

He had no such soldier types in his domain, so he could only put them up for consignment.

Next, he looked at the piece of Golden Armor.

[Silver Wing Scale Armor]

[Quality: Golden]

[Equipment Level: 15]

[Upper Body Protection: 189~242]

[Equipment Attributes: Agility +100, Constitution +80, Magic Resistance +15%]

[Equipment Effect ①: Flee (Upon being hit by a ranged attack, there is a 45% chance to trigger, increasing movement speed by 50% for 3 seconds. 10-second cooldown.)]

[Equipment Effect ②: Silver Wing Shelter (When activating a barrier-type skill, adds an additional 50% Durability.)]

(Note: Silver Scale Breastplate, 5 gold a piece~)

...

’Adds an additional 50% Durability to barriers?’

Shen Xing glanced at the Light Knight next to Xia Wanyin, recalling the sight of it casting Shield of Light just moments ago. He said, "This armor is a good fit for Guang. Here, you can have it."

Xia Wanyin took it and glanced at it, agreeing, "It is a good fit. I’ll take it then."

Shen Xing nodded slightly.

In any other team, even one with extremely close partners, a precious piece of Golden Armor like this would inevitably cause friction over how to distribute it.

But neither of them was the type to squabble with friends.

Since the equipment suited her soldier type, it was hers.

If it had suited him, Shen Xing would have definitely kept it, just like the scythe from before.

Meanwhile, after receiving the Scale Armor from the Lord, Guang murmured a "thank you" and immediately put it on.

SHIMMER...

A white light flashed, and the Scale Armor automatically fitted itself to its slender, Light Element body.

The silver-white scales glowed with a soft white light, and combined with the Spear of Light in its hand, it looked even more heroic and imposing.

Next, they continued toward the other skeletal remains in the Dragon Tomb.

The routine was the same: Shen Xing would first destroy the tombstones to awaken the Fierce Beast Souls within.

Then, based on the monsters’ skills and attack patterns, they would decide on troop allocation and battle tactics.

The third Boss they encountered was an "Earth-Splitting Bull." It was immensely powerful, and when it charged, not even the chains of Hei and Guang could hold it back.

In the end, Hei had to unleash its full power, activating its Death Domain and stacking it with the Cold Frosty Yin Qi from its Black Arrows to finally slow the bull down.

Then, Reina finished it off with a single Meteor Technique.

The fourth Boss was a "Celestial Cloud Fire Phoenix" wreathed in dark red flames.

That thing was the absolute worst. Not only was its flight speed absurdly fast, but it also had a wide-area flame Scorching ability.

At the drop of a hat, it would create a fire domain several hundred meters or even a kilometer or two in diameter.

’We can’t fight this. There’s no way.’

If Shen Xing hadn’t possessed the Epic-Level treasure, [Rain Saint], and used it to summon a massive downpour that perfectly counteracted its fire domain, he probably would have lost half his forces right there.

But even so, they suffered the most casualties at the hands of this "Celestial Cloud Fire Phoenix."

The two battles combined resulted in nearly five hundred casualties among his soldier types.

Fortunately, most of the fallen soldiers were recently recruited cannon-fodder Beastmen, so the losses were still within an acceptable range.

At this moment, Shen Xing looked toward the colossal tombstone in the center of the Dragon Tomb. Four intersecting cracks had already appeared on its surface.
