Chapter 33: First Kill
Translator:EndlessFantasy Translation
Editor:EndlessFantasy Translation
Out of Print and Orchid Elf's body had just disappeared from the dungeon when Li Yi extended a party invitation to both of them.
"Don't enter the dungeon yet.
"Enter when I call you in."
Without further explanation, Li Yi brought along Mutated Small Wild Boar and ran towards Ordas.
Under normal circumstances, only a party of at least Level 15, complete with Frost equipment set and proficient in tactics could defeat Ordas of Heroic difficulty.
No matter how well-coordinated the trio was, with their levels and equipment's inability to keep up the pace, defeating Ordas was impossible. Having Out of Print and Orchid Elf to remain in the dungeon would only cause them to die.
Of course, this was only one of the reasons. The other reason was that Li Yi did not want anyone to uncover Mutated Small Wild Boar's secret and the bug on avoiding Flurry of Dancing Snow that early.
Apart from Frost Arrow, Ordas's attack was mostly group attacks with incredibly high damage. Even equipped with the three-piece Frost set, it was hard to last three strikes. It wasn't just challenging on the part of the main tanker, there was high requisite on the part of the healer. Taking Orchid Elf for an example, she would not be qualified enough.
God Creator Guild needed to send out two healers to assist tankers so it was imaginable how tough a boss fight could be.
"Go, Old Pig!"
Mutated Small Wild Boar made an inaudible noise before charging forward.
Mutated Small Wild Boar would not be able to go up against Frost Giants but it would be a piece of cake against Ordas.
Ordas's attacks were of Ice attribute but Mutated Small Wild Boar was naturally immunized towards Ice attribute.
The word 'Immune' kept appearing on top of Mutated Small Wild Boar but Li Yi was not just going to stand there, he was going all out at the back.
"You foolish mortals, audacious God Slayers.
"Be prepared to be baptized in frost and snow."
Ordas raised his staff and a frozen lotus was released from his body to his surroundings.
Li Yi was attacking while retreating. At the same time, he was issuing orders at Mutated Small Wild Boar to retreat, attack, retreat, attack...
This was going back and forth to lure Ordas down the platform to the spot where the Frost Giant was. He then stopped his footsteps and went full force in attack.
Ordas's HP was dropping bit by bit yet his frenzied attack could do nothing to Mutated Small Wild Boar.
It was not long until his HP reduced to half. Ordas was enraged and slowly levitated, releasing the large-scale magic, Flurry of Dancing Snow.
Frost Arrows rained down but Li Yi stood where he was without moving. Not a drop of HP.
The place he was standing at was a special spot. A spot that would remain forever untouched by Flurry of Dancing Snow.
This spot was small, enough for one person to stand in and not a person more.
[-500]
[-478]
[-1278]
Li Yi continuously attacked in the midst of Flurry of Dancing Snow, doubling the damage. Once Ordas landed, his HP was left with one third.
"No, no, this can't be true, this can't be true.
"Mortal... How could you possibly harm me?"
Similar to normal Instance Dungeons, Flurry of Dancing Snow's inability to kill players curled Ordas. He kneeled onto the ground with hands over his head. His DEF was now at its lowest.
Full force attack!
His HP continuously decreased and once Ordas came to, he was left with just over 10,000 HP.
"Mortal, you will be punished."
Ordas pointed his staff at Li Yi and shouted, "In the name of God of Frost and Snow, I will seal you in ice, Dark Wing!"
Hearing Ordas referring his name, Li Yi immediately froze into an ice sculpture. This could not be helped, even a main account over Level 100 clearing this dungeon would be frozen solid should Ordas refer them by name. (TN: Main account is the gaming account mostly used by players. Typically, it would be the character played to the highest level and equipped to the highest grade.)
"I will crush you!" Ordas ran towards Li Yi, dragging his staff along with him.
Anyone crushed at this time would be instantly killed regardless of level.
Mutated Small Wild Boar came to full play once again, intensifying its ramming and tearing. It managed to regain Ordas's Aggro who was midway on the run.
"In the name of God of Frost and Snow, I seal you in ice, Old Pig!"
Ordas pointed his staff at Mutated Small Wild Boar. The word 'Immune" once again appeared on top of Small Wild Boar's head.
The ice covering Li Yi's body slowly melted. After about two minutes, he reclaimed freedom.
"No... No... This cannot be.
"I am God of Frost and Snow."
"How can I lose to mortals?"
"Arethena..."
Ordas clasped his hand on his chest, falling onto his knees.
Li Yi stepped forward quickly, taking out that Quest Necklace obtained from the Normal-Level Instance Dungeon and placed it onto Ordas.
"Out of Print, Orchid Elf, quickly come in."
Ordas's body was sizzling with chills. Li Yi took this opportunity to have Out of Print and Orchid Elf enter the Instance Dungeon.
"Leader, have you cleared the Instance Dungeon?"
Li Yi sent a private message to Delicately Cute.
"Not yet."
"Join my party."
"Don't pester me!" Delicately Cute wasn't in the best of mood.
"Someone by the name of Lin Yu told me to add you."
"Lin Yu? Lin Yu? Is she playing too?"
System Notification: [Delicately Cute has joined the party.]
Out of Print and Orchid Elf just got to Li Yi when they saw Ordas collapsed onto the ground with a thump.
If a Quest Necklace is not placed on Ordas upon his death, then he would come back to life and resume full HP and state. A lot of parties often overlooked that Quest Necklace left from the Normal-Level Instance Dungeon. Once they comprehended that folly, they would already be tormented and completely annihilated.
That Quest Necklace's name in full was Anethena's Relic.
The System spamming began again.
[Dark Empire has achieved first kill of Hero-Level boss, Ordas. Recorded in Pantheon Hall of Fame.]
[Player, Dark Wing has achieved the first kill of Ordas. System reward 200 Gold Coins obtained! System reward 500 points Reputation Value with various major cities obtained! System reward 20000 EXP and +1 Skill Point obtained!]

[Player, Delicately Cute has achieved the first kill of Ordas. System reward 100 Gold Coins obtained! System Reward 300 points Reputation Value with various major cities obtained! System reward 20000 EXP obtained!]
...
"Where's Lil Yu? How dare you lie..."
Delicately Cute was about to question Li Yi when the system spamming started.
System Notification: [Dark Wing has kicked Delicately Cute out of the party.]
"What... What's going on?" Delicately Cute was in a daze.
"Alright, the boss is taken down and we got the first kill.
"It's time to divide the spoils."
Dark Wing smiled at Out of Print and Orchid Elf, gesturing them to go ahead with looting the corpse.
He could take single-handedly take on a boss because he had that confidence but before Out of Print and Orchid Elf entered the Instance Dungeon, he did not even touch the boss. This was the most basic integrity in a party.
"This is your contribution."
"I have taken far too much." Out of Print shook his head and looked at the corpse of Ordas. He was completely stunned within.
"I will take any healer's equipment if it's dropped."
"I don't want it if it's anything else," Orchid Elf got the hint.
Li Yi laughed out loud, "Alright then, let's just take a look what's the loot."
"Out of you two, who's going to be looting?"
"Let me," Orchid Elf vied ahead, blocking Out of Print in the front.
And it was then when Li Yi's private message rung. It was from Delicately Cute.
"Add me into the party immediately, or else you'll be punished in accordance with the guild rules!"
