Villains die by talking too much, monsters perish because of high intelligence.
Necromancer: Blackblade was clearly a high-IQ monster. From its few words, Su Mu had already found its weakness.
Su Mu said, "Blackblade, Crimson has already completed the research on its equipment."
"The weapons I use are common in Crimson's territory."
"Your plan has long failed."
Hearing this, Blackblade's body immediately flickered with fearful black flames, the long knife in its grasp trembling.
"Impossible!"
"Humans cannot represent Crimson!"
"Your weapon is just a fluke!"
Su Mu knew words alone wouldn't sway Blackblade, so he decisively took out the Crimson Soul Pearl.
The Crimson Soul Pearl glowed with a crimson light, and in Blackblade's eyes, it was especially compelling.
"Crimson Soul Pearl!"
"Human, are your words true?"
Blackblade's mind immediately became confused.
If the person holding the Crimson Soul Pearl was recognized, and such weapons that counter undead creatures were common in The Crimson Clan's hands—then the plan would definitely fail!
Just as Blackblade was lost in thought, Su Mu had already aimed his Demonbreaker Crossbow at Blackblade's body.
Holding several bolts, Su Mu manually activated the crossbow's rapid-fire function.
The Skeleton Lizard summoned by Blackblade as a shield was instantly killed.
One bolt after another shot toward Blackblade.
This time, Blackblade had no chance to block or dodge.
The bolts, enhanced by the Demonbreaker Crossbow's effects, pierced Blackblade's body, and purifying flames burned over it.
"Ahhh! Human, you are definitely not Crimson!"
"Crimson does not ambush!"
Hit by the Demonbreaker Crossbow, Blackblade cried out in panic, waving its hands and palms as if trying to extinguish the purifying flames burning on its body.
But for the undead, trying to extinguish purifying flames only makes things worse.
However, Blackblade was no ordinary monster.
Seeing that it couldn't dispel the flames, it swung its long knife, cutting off all the burning bones from its body.
The shattered burning bones fell to the ground, and Blackblade freed itself from further burning.
"The Crimson Clan does not ambush."
"But I will."
Su Mu declared that it was still his turn.
Bolts fired again in rapid succession.
Even if Blackblade summoned skeleton shields, several bolts still struck it.
All summoned skeletons were also pierced and destroyed by the bolts.
"Human, despicable."
"My body can no longer harm Crimson, but I will take you down with me!"
Seeing the purifying flames burning its body, Blackblade realized it could not escape death.
The Blackblade in its hand swung violently, and a cloud of black mist appeared behind Su Mu.
The black blade of the sneak attack aimed to cut Su Mu in two.
"Just waiting for that move."
"Crystal Bracer, activate."
A perfect glass shield enveloped Su Mu's entire body.
The sneaky black blade shattered against the glass shield, which also broke, then disappeared.
Protected by the glass shield, Su Mu could still fire bolts at Blackblade even after being attacked.
When the purifying black smoke burned away Blackblade's last shred of will, the level 15 elite monster finally died by Su Mu's hand.
"Plan failed, my deepest apologies."
"Lord, please punish all things once more."
Blackblade's body was completely consumed by the purifying flames, and its dissipating soul seemed to speak a last farewell.
But Su Mu only cared about Blackblade's loot.
[Ding, congratulations Survivor, you have defeated the elite monster Necromancer: Blackblade.]
[You gained 2500 experience points.]
This experience was a whole thousand points more than Crimson Boar King, the boss.
Su Mu thought he should go back and humiliate Crimson Boar King again.
Because it was an elite monster, the loot was relatively few — only three items dropped.
But after examining them, Su Mu found each was more valuable than the last!
[Weapon: Spirit Manipulator Blackblade.]
[Quality: Rare.]
[Level: 1]
[Special Effect: Sneak Attack Blade, Undead Control (Single Target)]
[Secondary Entry: Unfilled]
[Description: The weapon used by Necromancer Blackblade. After being purified, some of its death aura faded, making it more suitable for human use.]
A rare-grade weapon dropped directly?
This was definitely the most valuable weapon Su Mu had ever obtained, aside from those from special reward chests.
If it got a Secondary Entry added, even a Silver-tier one, it could rival his current level of Demonbreaker Crossbow.
"Just what I needed — a melee weapon. You're it."
Su Mu put it aside for the moment, then looked at the other loot.
[Blackblade Cloak]
[Quality: Fine]
[Level: 1]
[Special Effect: Reduces hostility from undead creatures.]
[Description: The clothes of Necromancer Blackblade, originally shrouded in阴气 (dark aura). After purification, it's more suitable for human wear.]
Not a bad piece of gear either.
Su Mu then turned to the last piece of loot.
