Bone King: Welcome the Birth of the King.

Chapter 387 Time Strategy? A Plan to Cope
【HP:1112/1125·MP:897/918】

"Based on previous observations, the Heaven of Growth and the Heaven of Wide Vision should not possess the means to attack the air."

Tang Zheng gradually rose up, looking down at the two Heavenly Kings below, trying to calm himself down as quickly as possible.

no way!
The two Heavenly Kings in any space are difficult to deal with. If he stubbornly continues to fight, he will definitely lose in the end.

"The two alternate dimensions that were transformed were the so-called 'Diamond Realm' and 'Garbhadhatu Realm,' but the transformation was completely unnoticed during the process..."

Tang Zheng's mind was currently filled with various pieces of information he had gathered from the two different dimensions, and he needed to analyze these pieces of information to extract useful clues.

He considered his intuition to be pretty good, after all, he had the bonus from the [Dragon Race Transcender] class.

The spatial transformation went completely unnoticed!

The only possibility is—time-related abilities!
Does the 【Two Realms Mandala】 also possess time-related abilities or effects?

If that's the case!
Tang Zheng's expression darkened, and a sense of helplessness rose within him.

The two spaces keep switching!

This process will inevitably disrupt his attack rhythm, especially during intense battles when the opponents suddenly switch roles, and the attacks released will most likely be immune to by the switched Heavenly King.

To detect the spatial transformation process, you must have a "time strategy," but you need to be level 70 or above to prepare for it!

You need to learn specialized skills or acquire the corresponding equipment.

This is the same as the prerequisite for learning [Superior Magic], and Tang Zheng does not meet any of these conditions.

"The process of transformation must follow certain rules."

Tang Zheng continued to recall the details of the entire process, pondering deeply:
"Zhang Zengtian and Guang Mutian are immune to physical damage. One is a warrior and the other is a summoner. They are clearly designed to counter warrior players."

"Dhritarashtra and Vaishravana are immune to spell damage. Based on previous observations, one is a magic tank with a large area-of-effect (AOE) damage, and the other is a support-specialized boss with certain mechanics."

"These two Heavenly Kings are specifically designed to counter mage-type players!"

Tang Zheng pondered the different fighting styles of the four Heavenly Kings and vaguely felt that the shift to another dimension might be due to the difference in his own attack methods.

If you are a pure warrior player, the Heavenly Kings you need to deal with are the Heavenly Kings with increased physical damage immunity and the Heavenly King with wide vision.

under these circumstances.

Perhaps there won't be a situation where the other dimension is transformed.

"Let's give it a try!"

Tang Zheng looked down at the two Heavenly Kings running towards him, took out a pocket watch from his prop box to check the time, and continued moving through the air.

He decided to hold off on launching an attack for the time being to determine whether the situation of changing dimensions would still occur.

"In addition, there is a mechanism for the Heavenly King weapon to drop."

Tang Zheng controlled his flight speed, circling the entire spacious square, the scene of the pipa falling from the hands of Dhritarashtra flashing through his mind:
"After losing his weapon, the buff on the Heavenly King will disappear, and he may even be in a weakened state for a short time, but this should be an opportunity to attack."

"What happened with the selection of those classic texts?"

"After Growth Day picked up its weapons again, the opening remarks also changed."

If someone from another world were faced with this situation, they would probably be completely baffled, but Tang Zheng was no stranger to the familiar routines from those games in his previous life.

The opening remarks spoken by the four heavenly kings are very likely from Buddhist scriptures!
"After shooting down a weapon, you need to select the corresponding Buddhist scripture. According to the pattern, if you select the right one, you should receive a certain buff."

As Tang Zheng thought about this, he suddenly felt the same helplessness he felt when he bit into a steamed bun and found that there was no filling inside, and after taking another bite, it was still the same, until he finally realized that it was just a regular steamed bun.

His understanding of Buddhist scriptures was limited to knowing that there were scriptures with names like the Diamond Sutra.

"If I wanted to learn now, it would be too late to look up information."

Tang Zheng inwardly scoffed, realizing that this path was clearly a dead end.

As expected, we still have no choice but to confront them head-on!

Tang Zheng felt a throbbing pain in his temples. The problem was that even if he went head-to-head now, he wasn't confident of winning.

Follow the gameplay of the dungeon!
His biggest concern was whether, once the health bars of the four Heavenly Kings were reduced to a certain level, he would face a situation where he had to confront all four Heavenly Kings at the same time.

Summoner, Warrior, Mage Tank, Support!
Once these four kings team up, a 1v4 situation will arise. Just thinking about it makes Tang Zheng's scalp tingle.

A strong sense of crisis!

This caused Tang Zheng's heart to clench uncontrollably a few times.

"Perhaps... it will fail!"

Tang Zheng's fingers trembled, and his expression was slightly stiff.

Even though he had made some preparations, this situation was still beyond his expectations. Was he being a bit "overconfident" because it was a completely high-level professional build?

Call ~
Tang Zheng took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, knowing that he absolutely could not let his will waver at this moment.

That's why he dared to come in!

This is because there is a backup plan as a countermeasure.

However, this "backup plan" is a last resort, a kind of surrender-like tactic. In short, it means giving up resistance and waiting for oneself to reach level 100!
If we can't win, then we won't fight.

Although Tang Zheng is currently only level 60, he can immediately take up a mid-tier job, requiring only the four mid-tier jobs he previously acquired, such as [Sword Saint] and [Holy Knight].

He then assembled a level 100 class build!

Then, in this alternate dimension, you will normally gain 150 million experience points every day until you reach level 100.

This would require staying in the alternate dimension for several years. As for the food issue?
He had just one sun anglerfish carcass in his prop box, enough to eat for a year or two if he was careful with his diet, not to mention he also had some other food reserves.

Water sources can also be dealt with using magic through the passive ability of "attribute conversion"!

of course.

This is a last resort, a desperate measure!

"Ah!"

Tang Zheng slightly grinned, a dark, flame-like light flashing in his eyes. He took a deep breath and looked down at the two Heavenly Kings:
"I haven't arrived yet..."

"They surrendered without even giving it their all!"

Calm down again.

The thought popped into Tang Zheng's mind: how did Ainz Ooal Gown obtain this world-class item?

Once the opponent enters the [Two Realms Mandala], according to the mechanics of this world-class item, the opponent should be Dhritarashtra and Vaishravana, who possess (-90% spell damage).

Facing these two Heavenly Kings.

Even Ainz Ooal Gown would find it difficult to deal with; otherwise, it would be a gross underestimation of the ownership of world-class items.

"The Death Bell..."

Tang Zheng could only deduce that the Bone King used his trump card, "Death Bell," to defeat the two Heavenly Kings.

leftover!
Ainz Ooal Gown only needs to deal with the other two Heavenly Kings, which makes things much easier. Without the spell damage reduction buff, he can deal with a Warrior and a Summoner.

That's Ainz Ooal Gown's area of ​​expertise.

Many spells can cause significant damage.

I don't think it's very useful for reference!
Just as this thought arose in Tang Zheng's mind, a flash of inspiration appeared in his head.

Swish!
Tang Zhengfei's body suddenly stopped in mid-air, his eyes shining. If this guess was feasible, perhaps it could be given a try.

only……

"You only have one chance." Tang Zheng's eyes became unusually serious, fixed intently on the Growth Heaven and Wide-Eyed Heaven below.
"Instead of using this trump card on the two of you, let's use it on those two troublesome kings."

Time passed little by little.

Tang Zheng continued to fly around the entire square.

The Heavenly Kings of Growth and Wide Vision pursued them on the ground, but the two Heavenly Kings clearly lacked the means to deal with flying, and could only circle around on the ground!
Interestingly.

Zengzhangtian's slash is a ranged attack skill, but Tang Zheng discovered that as long as the distance between the two sides is far, it will be effective.

The opponent will abandon their attack and instead pursue, which is an unexpected bonus!

An hour passed.

The cooldown of the "Shadow Clone Technique" has ended. "The current time has exceeded the total duration of the previous two battles, yet there has been no spatial shift."

Tang Zheng continued flying, took out his pocket watch again to check it, and seemed to be deep in thought:
"My previous guess was correct. The conditions for transforming into another dimension should be related to the player's attack method. No wonder the requirements for [Monk] type professions are higher."

"From a game mechanics perspective, players who focus on building monk-type classes will inevitably have a deeper understanding of Buddhist myths, legends, and historical records, making it easier for them to complete the game."

"So--"

"Tenth-Rank Magic: Heating!"

Tang Zheng raised his palm downwards and chanted a low shout.

Centered on Tang Zheng, the air within the entire area instantly turned crimson, and dazzling light and heat erupted from the sky.

It was like a missile exploding in mid-air.

Boom!

A powerful shockwave blasted towards the two Heavenly Kings below, knocking them back a short distance.

Growth days (93%)

Guangmu Tian (92%)

The health bars above the two Heavenly Kings both dropped slightly at the same time.

"4% of his health was lost."

Tang Zheng smiled slightly, for the magic attack of his main body was far superior to that of his shadow clone.

The same magic can only reduce the two Heavenly Kings' health by 1%, since the shadow clone only inherits 1/4 of his magic attack value.

After launching a magic attack.

Tang Zheng then stopped attacking and resumed circling.

This time, the wait wasn't long.

Approximately 8 minutes!

The sky, which was radiating golden light, suddenly brightened by one degree.

Time stops!

Vajradhatu Mandala → Garbhadhatu Mandala

When the transformation between the two realms is complete.

Tang Zheng still didn't notice anything unusual. If it weren't for the change in the Heavenly King's appearance, he probably wouldn't have noticed anything at all.

"Middle String Falls"

A magic circle appeared on the ground, emitting a blue light.

boom!
Suddenly, darkness fell over Tang Zheng's head, and a massive rocky pipa, about ten meters tall, appeared above him, engulfing a large area of ​​space as it crashed down.

Since Tang Zheng was already flying in the air, the distance was extremely close, making it impossible for him to fly out of the attack range.

"Teleport"

Tang Zheng's figure vanished from his original spot in a flash and reappeared diagonally opposite.

"Huagai Green"

Dowentian held up his long umbrella, and the pointer at the top of the umbrella rotated to the green zone.

An invisible wave is descending!
Tang Zheng's flight was interrupted, and his body plummeted from the sky as if a spell had been forcibly broken.

"flight"!
Tang Zheng began chanting again, activating the magic.

however!
The magic of flight had no effect, as if the magic was no longer usable.

"It can even silence skills? Is that how you play it?!"

Tang Zheng glanced at the attribute panel and found that the "Flight" magic had turned gray in the magic section.

The body continued to fall from the sky!
"Shadow Strike!"

Tang Zheng twisted his body, transforming into a black shadow in mid-air, streaking across the sky like a black lightning bolt.

bang——

Tang Zheng landed smoothly on the ground, then launched himself away from his spot, rushing to Duowentian's side.
"Next, it's my turn."

Smash the weapons first!

"Huagai White"

Duowentian swiftly spun his long umbrella, and a white, transparent defensive barrier enveloped his entire body, emitting a soft glow.

Hey~
"Zixian·Bo"

On the other side, Dhritarashtra was also pulling the same string, unleashing a sonic shockwave.

"Shadow Strike!"

Seeing that Duowentian possessed defensive magic, Tang Zheng immediately switched targets, his figure disappearing once more. A black afterimage streaked across the ground, and the sound of air being torn apart during his rapid movement reached his ears.

Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye.

"Four Lights Combo - Break Through!"

Tang Zheng had already arrived in front of Dhritarashtra, and the Painful Ice Fang was swung in the same manner as before:
"Rapid slash!"

First, he used his martial arts to knock off Dhritarashtra's left hand, then used a skill to knock off his right hand, which was holding the pipa.

Release both hands.

The pipa fell from the sky!
Tang Zheng's eyes lit up, and his hand shot out like lightning, grabbing the fallen pipa magic item.

The fingertips pierced through the air, passing through the pipa magic prop as well. The fallen pipa seemed illusory, impossible to retrieve.

"Untouchable".

Tang Zheng's bright eyes narrowed: "If the plan to seize the weapons fails, then proceed with the second plan!"

Golden light surged!

Five illusory Buddhist scriptures appeared before my eyes.

Tang Zheng ignored the Buddhist scriptures and made no selections; he only knew the names of these scriptures at most.

Taking a gamble and choosing a option with only a 1/5 probability!
Based on the first instance, nothing will happen if you don't choose, but if you choose the wrong option, what if there are negative consequences...?

"Spell Without Incantation - Level 10 - Heating!"

With a thought in his mind, Tang Zheng didn't even need the preparatory action of chanting; the intense photosynthesis had already erupted.

【HP:1112/1125·MP:770/918】

The nearby Dhritarashtra was instantly enveloped in scorching heat, losing its buff and revealing the full power of its magical effects.

"evil creature!"

Dhritarashtra (88%) let out a majestic roar, but was repelled by the shockwave generated by the high temperature expansion and flew more than ten meters away.

The 5% damage dealt in one hit was unexpected, and the damage from losing the "damage reduction" effect was 1% higher than when dealing with the other two Heavenly Kings.

Could it be that after losing the buff, the Heavenly King can deal even more damage from this type of attack?
but!

Tang Zheng only glanced at it briefly before mentally starting to count down the seconds.

His real purpose in activating "Heat" was to create a knockback effect after the magic was released!

3 seconds passed!
The pipa that had fallen to the ground vanished into thin air and reappeared in the hands of Dhritarashtra.

"We cannot delay the weapon recovery time!"

Upon seeing this result, Tang Zheng lowered his eyelids slightly: "The plan to postpone the introduction of weapons has failed."

"If we adopt the plan we have deduced, we will only have 3 seconds to prepare, and it will need to be done on both Heavenly Kings at the same time."
