National Awakening: My Left Eye Copies My Right Eye and Sublimates

31: The leader appears and takes the lead!Pushing forward eight hundred meters, the diverging paths had now merged into a single, complete passage.

Looking ahead, the tunnel still stretched out, seemingly endless.

Gusts of cold wind blew, and various terrifying roars were carried to Xia Qi’s ears.

About five meters in front of Xia Qi, a burly zombie blocked the center of the tunnel.

Compared to other zombies, this one was over two meters tall, with a sturdy build, looking like a hulking giant.

He cast an Insight skill, and the monster’s information appeared.

【Iron Skin Zombie (Boss)】

【Rank: 15】

【Strength: 200】

【Agility: 150】

【Physique: 250】

【Intelligence: 80】

【Skills: Iron Mountain Lean, Iron Claw】

Xia Qi encountered a Boss monster for the first time, and it even had two skills.

Its four-dimensional attributes were also much higher than those of the Copper Skin Zombie; with 200 Strength and 250 Physique, it was quite impressive.

”This is a Boss monster. The nightmare difficulty dungeon really has some tricks. If we get to the later Bosses, their attributes will probably be even stronger.”

”Estimated that only A-Rank Talent teams around Rank 25 would be able to handle it.”

It was normal for a nightmare difficulty dungeon to have this level of monster.

Generally speaking, B-Rank professionals, even when their Rank exceeded the Zombie Mine dungeon by five Ranks, could still only clear the normal difficulty, and attempting elite difficulty would put their lives at risk.

As for nightmare difficulty, with all members possessing A-Rank Talent, a four-person team would need to exceed the dungeon’s Rank by ten Ranks, otherwise, the danger would still be considerable.

At the same time, equipment, skills, and other aspects all needed to keep up.

Otherwise, casually entering the dungeon would be suicidal.

Someone like Xia Qi, who dared to solo a nightmare difficulty dungeon at only Rank 10, was historically either a suicidal madman or just Xia Qi.

Feeling the fluctuation of the Insight skill, the originally quietly standing Iron Skin Zombie was startled awake.

It slowly turned around, its burly body stomping on the ground, and the entire mine seemed to tremble slightly.

”You...die!”

Struggling to utter two words, a violent aura surged towards Xia Qi.

Its long fangs revealed a chilling glint, and a sense of oppression swept over Xia Qi.

”Thunder, come!”

His azure eyes instantly turned cold, and Xia Qi decisively launched his attack.

Xia Qi understood the principle of striking first to gain the initiative.

Roar!

The power of lightning, as fast as a flash, struck the Iron Skin Zombie. The opponent’s body merely trembled, then it charged forward as if nothing had happened.

Iron Mountain Lean!

Like a heavy truck, the Iron Skin Zombie, relying on its powerful physical constitution, forcibly withstood the power of lightning and charged fiercely towards Xia Qi.

”Not good!”

His gaze shifted slightly, and Xia Qi, without thinking, activated Thunder Breathing and Bullet Speed to evade the attack.

Crash!

The Iron Skin Zombie crashed directly into the mine wall, the strong impact causing the mine to shake slightly, sending down countless brokenstones.

Xia Qi, standing several meters away, felt the power of the aftershock, and a serious expression appeared on his face.

The power of Iron Mountain Lean was quite formidable; if he were truly hit by the Iron Skin Zombie.

Xia Qi felt that even if he didn’t die, he would be severely injured.

The Iron Skin Zombie shook its head. Although it had some intelligence, it was clearly not much.

It didn’t understand why the enemy, who was clearly right in front of it, suddenly appeared several meters away.

Xia Qi, completely unharmed, took advantage of the Iron Skin Zombie’s momentary daze, not missing any opportunity, unleashing Frenzy Lightning one after another.

The Iron Skin Zombie’s defense was clearly very strong, but unfortunately, a large part of its body was made of iron, and the power of lightning raged within its body. Although it looked fine on the outside, it had already suffered internal injuries.

Boom!

Another bolt of Frenzy Lightning struck.

The Iron Skin Zombie’s proud iron skin was directly torn open by the violent energy, and for a moment, flesh and blood splattered.

”You, die!”

The Iron Skin Zombie, having stabilized its body, launched another attack. This time, the power was noticeably weaker than the last.

Easily dodging, Xia Qi simultaneously continued to gather lightning energy to bombard it.

As bolts of emotionless lightning struck the Iron Skin Zombie, it felt as if its entire body was being gnawed by tens of thousands of ants, an unbearable torment.

Lightning was not only powerful but also had a paralyzing effect. It could withstand one or two bolts, but with more, the lightning elements within its body continuously raged through its Physique.

Its overall movements began to slow down.

”Roar!”

A huge roar rang out. This time, the Iron Skin Zombie’s target was not Xia Qi, but deeper into the mine.

In this confined mine terrain, sound transmission was unidirectional.

Soon, countless smaller roars also began to sound, followed by the roars growing louder and louder, even approaching their ears.

”Damn it, it’s calling for backup!”

Xia Qi frowned. He hadn’t expected this Iron Skin Zombie to know how to call for ganks.

If it couldn’t win alone, it started calling for help.

Sure enough, in less than a second, Xia Qi saw a Copper Skin Zombie quickly rushing over.

Behind the Copper Skin Zombie, more zombies appeared, charging towards them.

”Quick battle, no prolonged fighting.”

Facing the unscrupulous Boss monster, the Iron Skin Zombie, Xia Qi also went straight for the kill.

Thunder Breathing was pushed to its limit, and bolts of Frenzy Lightning almost continuously slammed into the Iron Skin Zombie.

”Run!”

Feeling the threat to its life, the Iron Skin Zombie charged back into the zombie horde without looking back.

Seeing this, how could Xia Qi let it escape?

You run, I chase, you can’t fly away.

Xia Qi, outputting with no regard for energy consumption, was not something the Iron Skin Zombie could withstand.

After more than a dozen bolts of lightning dispersed, the Iron Skin Zombie crashed to the ground. In front of it, its companions were less than two meters away.

But it couldn’t wait for its companions to arrive; it had already departed.

【Killed Rank 15 Iron Skin Zombie, Experience +15000】

【Obtained Iron Ore X11】

【Obtained Elementary Energy Essence X3】

【Obtained Iron Zombie Fang X5】

”Only fifteen thousand experience, that low?”

Xia Qi, who had spent a lot of effort to kill the Iron Skin Zombie, was somewhat dissatisfied. This was equivalent to the experience of four Copper Skin Zombies, but the time spent killing it was ten times that of a Copper Skin Zombie.

He spent nearly a minute to eliminate this Iron Skin Zombie, and the energy consumption was not low.

Fortunately, Boss monsters, in addition to experience, also provided many extra Materials, and they were quite valuable.

Energy Essence was widely used; basically, all sub-class Talent users needed Energy Essence, and the market was always in short supply.

Fangs could be used to make weapons, and their price was also considerable.

With money as motivation, energy consumption was acceptable, so Xia Qi didn’t mind it anymore.

Although the Iron Skin Zombie was dealt with, now, hundreds of Copper Skin Zombies had already surrounded him.

Looking at the hideous-faced zombies, roaring for revenge for their Boss, Xia Qi instead revealed a slight smile.

”Come on, today, none of you will leave alive!”

Lightning surged around him, and in the next second, Xia Qi launched his attack.
