Your secret game is absolutely poisonous!

Chapter 260 The Great Rune is in hand!
Greke, who performed the limb transplant.

The first demigod from the borderlands to be challenged.

It is located in an open square deep inside the castle.

Adventurers will enter the BOSS battle area through a secret passage.

There is a secret room inside this passage, where a Blessing of Miracles can be activated, allowing adventurers to rest and prepare for the challenge of the BOSS.

Just like dealing with evil spirits and omens.

Adventurers also have two options when challenging Grek to extend his limbs.

The first option is to go straight in and fight Grek one-on-one, or to call for help at the border.

The second option is to start a team, match with other adventurers, and form a challenge team to take on the challenge.

Of course, no matter what method adventurers choose, they will face considerable difficulties because the boss battle in Miracle City has a dynamic balance mechanism.

Adventurers enter the BOSS battlefield.

The difficulty they encounter is directly proportional to the number of people involved.

If the adventurer goes in and fights Grek one-on-one.

Then, just like in the game, there will only be one boss, Grik.

If adventurers call for help or form online teams, the more people enter the BOSS battlefield, the more minions will appear around Grek. If the teammates are not strong enough, the difficulty may be much greater than fighting alone.

After Mengbai arrives at the BOSS battle area.

She first tried to fight the BOSS one-on-one, but it turned out that with her current strength, it was still too difficult to defeat Grik.

Because Grik is a rare Tier 4, 1-star unit, although it is relatively weak among Tier 4 rare monsters, it is by no means an easy opponent. Mengbai is currently at most Tier 2, 2-3 stars strong, and it is very difficult to fight against it.

"No time to waste!"

"Vic has already gone to the royal city!"

"If I dawdle and waste several days here, won't I really fall behind him?"

read this.

Meng Bai no longer hesitated.

He accepted the team invitation as expected.

A four-person adventurer team was quickly formed.

They are Mengbai, Bi'anhua, Baihe Jushi, and Wanshan Guhong.

This time, the lineup includes Wanshan Guhong, who is currently one of the strongest adventurers in the border region. He wields a strangely shaped, wave-shaped longsword.

According to Wanshan Guhong's introduction.

This knife is called "Hound's Tooth".

Acquired from the "Sealed Prison of the Unclaimed Hounds" on the southern slope of Lake Yakir.

Although the weapon looks ordinary, the "Hound Sword Technique" it contains is very powerful, especially the accompanying Hound Footwork, which is an absolutely super practical skill.

This weapon is no less valuable than the Meteorite Staff of the Other Shore Flower or the Greatsword of the White Crane Hermit.

After learning about the power of the hunting dog Longtooth, Mengbai realized that the border area was far larger than she had imagined, and that even in the small Ningmgfu, there were many secrets and treasures to be found.

The other shore flower said, "It's getting late. I think we should get started now, since it's just the four of us!"

"can!"

"Just do it!"

The four of them passed through a hazy fog gate.

Finally, we arrived at a spacious and open area.

Standing in the arena was a large but hunched figure, followed by four Grik Knights. The former was clearly the famous Grik the Limb-Setter!
At this moment, Grek was standing in front of a huge, gray-black dragon corpse.

The dragon had clearly been dead for some time; its skin had long lost its luster and texture, and in some places, signs of decay were clearly visible. It was constantly emitting a strong, foul stench.

"Dragon, a fellow descendant of the strong, your power is beyond question, and you are qualified to become a part of my body..."

Grek, who had just had his limbs extended, muttered to himself in a somber and terrifying voice as he looked at the dragon corpse before him.

At this moment, Grek slowly turned around to face the adventurers. His face was pale and emaciated, and he wore a golden crown. As the cloak covering his body slowly slipped down, dozens of hideous, shriveled, and deformed human hands were finally revealed.

Most of these extra arms were attached to the back, shoulders, and arms.

It looks very strange that each hand can move.

Grek slowly said, "As for you mere faded beings, although you are quite arrogant and ambitious, your bloodline is too lowly, and you are not qualified to be a part of me..."

Is this the famous limb-setting expert, Greg?
Although Grek had dozens of arms grafted onto his body.

But most of these arms are meaningless and look more like bizarre decorations.

Baihe Jushi couldn't help but comment: "Although the ability to reattach limbs is very strange, it is indeed a very promising method. However, this guy doesn't reattach limbs of various top-level creatures or top-level strongmen, but blindly pursues bloodlines. I don't know what he's thinking."

The other shore flower couldn't help but say, "Yes, what a waste of this skill! What's the point of taking on so many hands? It would be better to just use the bodies and limbs of giants and dragons!"

Black Hammer King: "I've figured it out now, Grik is just a paranoid idiot."

Hei Yuan: "He deliberately sought out members of the Golden Clan as material for his bloodline, as if the more Golden Clan members he took, the more noble and powerful his bloodline would become."

Nanshanke: "He must have been stimulated by something, causing him to doubt the strength of his bloodline."

Time Traveler: "I think it's mostly trauma from the battle with the Valkyrie."

The grumpy chick: "What a waste! What a waste! I wonder if I can even take away this ability to reattach limbs. Otherwise, I would definitely replace my body parts with those of a Titan, a Behemoth, or a dragon!"

"..."

It turns out.

Grek has performed so many limb reattachments.

His strength did not increase.

Although it has reached the fourth tier, it is only a very weak fourth tier, not even comparable to some top-tier third-tier five-star rare units, or third-tier three-star or higher rare units. No wonder it is considered the weakest demigod by the Borderland Faded Ones.

When they sensed the adventurers' mockery and disdain.

"Your Majesty!"

Grek immediately lifted a heavy golden battle axe with both hands and slammed it heavily onto the ground, instantly shattering all the floorboards within a radius of several meters.

"I am the Golden King!"

Although it was imposing, the adventurers didn't take it seriously.

After all, these adventurers are no ordinary people; what kind of storms haven't they weathered?
The other shore flower directly raised her staff, and under the condensation of purple gravity energy, she instantly summoned three rock spheres, which were like three powerful cannonballs that blasted towards Grek.

"You're asking for it!" Grek roared in fury, quickly dodging the rock ball and charging towards the adventurers.

"I'll hold him back!"

Meng Bai drew a slender weapon.

This weapon was none other than Roger's rapier.

She ran her left hand along the elegant, slender blade, and streaks of red lightning coiled around it. As the lightning flashed, it quickly wrapped around her body, causing her armor to shimmer with red electric light.

"It's Vic's Dragon Thunder!"

The other onlookers recognized the origin of this move.

This is none other than the Prayer skill that Mengbai just learned, one of Dragonlance Vic's signature moves.

Meng Bai felt that after the "Vic's Dragon Thunder" was applied to his entire body, the heavy armor suddenly became weightless, and even the air resistance was greatly reduced.

Push off the ground with both legs.

It shot out as fast as an arrow.

This speed and agility surprised the other adventurers.

Grek was equally fast. He dragged his golden axe across the ground as he ran, carving a crack in the earth. Then, he swung the heavy axe with the force of splitting mountains and seas, cleaving it down on the faded one.

Meng Bai wasn't even equipped with a shield at the moment, so naturally she couldn't fight him head-on. Moreover, Grek's attack power was extremely strong, and even if she used a shield, she probably wouldn't be able to withstand it, so she could only take the evasive approach.

The instant you dodged.

Activate the Radiant Sword Array!

Eight magic swords coalesced.

At the same time, he stabbed at Greke.

Although the attack successfully hit Grick, it did not cause him much damage. Instead, it made him even angrier and more frenzied. He let out a long howl and a violent whirlwind immediately swept around him.

Slash horizontally to the left and right.

Each axe blow was incredibly powerful.

Each strike unleashed a storm of sword energy.

Under normal circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for Meng Bai to dodge such an attack. However, with the Dragon Thunder buff reducing her weight and increasing her speed, she successfully dodged both attacks. At the same time, she launched a Fire-Throwing Prayer with her left hand and then launched an attack.

"Greek is being held up!"

"Take care of the other grunts first!"

"We need to move quickly, Mengbai can't hold out for long!"

"..."

The adventurers have a clear division of tactical roles.

Using her nimble rapier and enhanced by the Vic Dragon Lightning, Meng Bai engaged in a battle of attrition with Grek, not seeking to inflict significant damage, but simply to keep him occupied.

The other three adventurers took the opportunity to immediately eliminate the several Grik knights present.

The strength of the Grik Knights far surpasses that of ordinary Grik Soldiers, and their numbers are also relatively much smaller. At this moment, even the weakest of them are at the second-tier, second- or third-star level, so the appearance of four of them at once is certainly not to be underestimated.

If they were all just ordinary knights, that would be fine.

The most troublesome thing is that there is a large handheld horn inside.

When the adventurer engaged in battle with Grek, the knight immediately picked up his horn and prepared to blow it. Once he blew the horn, he would definitely summon a large number of reinforcements.

"no!"

"If so!"

"We are doomed to lose!"

Before Biyanhua, Baihe Jushi, and Wanshan Guhong could reach each other, they were immediately blocked by the other three Grik Knights.

A Grek knight drew his longsword and delivered a bloody slash.

The attack was blocked by the White Crane Hermit using his Greatsword.

The rock spheres, imbued with gravitational energy, emitted by the spider lily landed on the three knights, successfully repelling them but failing to inflict enough fatal damage.

"not good!"

"That's too late!"

The audience was on the edge of their seats.

Wanshan Guhong, wielding the Hound's Fang, took action. His figure transformed into a ghostly afterimage, passing between the three knights and arriving before the knight holding the horn in the blink of an eye.

The moment the knight was about to blow the horn.

Wanshan Guhong's long fangs, wielded with both hands, pierced the chest like a bolt of lightning. The latter was completely unprepared and did not expect the Faded One to have such strange movements and speed.

puff!
The blade pierced through the armor, creating a huge wound!
This sword strike not only severely injured the knight but also interrupted the horn's sound. He then pressed his advantage, unleashing a series of powerful sword strikes, and on the spot, he killed the formidable knight, Grek.

"Wow, that's so cool! Is that the hound's movement technique?"

"Such speed, such unpredictable movement! This move is definitely a divine technique for sneak attacks!"

"..."

After using his hound sword technique to take down the most threatening Grik Knight, Wanshan Guhong, along with Bi'anhua and Baihe Jushi, continued to deal with the remaining three Grik Knights.

Each of the knights is quite skilled.

But they could not possibly be a match for the three adventurers.

After all, these three adventurers were not ordinary people; each of them was a top expert with a great reputation in Miracle City.

Within minutes.

The three of them ended the fight.

At this moment, Mengbai has also reached her limit.

Vic's Dragon Lightning effect had temporarily worn off, and under Greik's berserk onslaught, Mengbai was like a lone boat in a storm, in danger of being crushed and torn apart at any moment. "You lowly maggot stripped of your blessing, you dare to challenge the Golden King!"

Grek's arms were flailing, and he stomped his foot, creating a whirlwind that sent Meng Bai flying. Just as he was about to swing his giant axe to chop the faded creature into pieces...

Three purple energy-infused rock spheres slammed into him.

Bang bang bang!
Each rock sphere may seem insignificant, but with the help of gravitational energy, it has an enormous mass. Caught off guard, Grik was knocked back several steps, while Mengbai narrowly escaped death.

"Damn faders..."

Grek then realized that several knights beside him had already fallen before the Faded Ones, showing that these Faded Ones were different from those who had challenged him in the past; they were quite capable.

Under the blessing of the "Vengeance Oath" of the Greatsword of the Skull.

White Crane Hermit briefly reached the third tier of strength. He rushed in front of Grek and slashed with his sword, but Grek easily deflected it with his golden giant axe.

But that's it!

Grek possesses fourth-tier strength.

Even though the White Crane Hermit had raised his overall attributes to the third tier, the difference in strength between the two was still enormous. This person posed no threat whatsoever. Not only did Grek easily deflect the full-force attack, but he was also about to launch a fatal counterattack.

Unexpectedly, at this very moment...

Wanshan Guhong flashed behind him with the speed of a hunting dog.
Taking advantage of Greke's distraction at the White Crane Hermit's place, he swiftly stabbed Greke's massive body with his sword, creating a deep wound from which a large amount of foul blood gushed out.

Meng Bai regained her footing and used her left hand to launch a fire-throwing prayer. A blazing fireball exploded on Grik, causing him to stagger once again.

Meanwhile, the second wave of rock spheres formed from the red spider lily has also been completed.

The bombardment caused considerable damage.

All four were top-tier experts. Although their raw strength was far inferior to Grik's, their tacit cooperation and teamwork allowed them to suppress Grik for a short period of time.

Of course, even if Grek with the limbs is the weakest demigod.

That also gives them an overwhelming advantage over adventurers at this stage.

The reason they are being suppressed at this moment is simply because the four adventurers are of extremely high skill level. Under the same conditions, it would be difficult for ordinary adventurers to achieve such tacit understanding and effect.

Greck was completely enraged.

He raised the giant golden axe with both hands and slammed it hard into the ground. The ground within several feet around the point of impact shattered, and golden energy burst forth from it.

"roll!"

Grek pressed down with both hands.

The area affected by the explosion and debris expanded more than two or three times over.

This attack is extremely powerful and has a very wide range. If adventurers don't have time to retreat, they could be instantly killed.

However, before embarking on this joint operation, the adventurers had challenged Grek several times in advance, so they knew Grek's moves and took evasive action in advance to avoid being hit.

While waiting for the explosion to end.

Biyanhua switched weapons and took out a golden halberd. She first activated a golden oath to enhance her own and her teammates' attributes. Then, the four of them surrounded her again like a pack of wolves hunting.

Gravity Rock Ball, Vic's Dragon Thunder, Vow of Vengeance, Hound Sword Technique!

Various abilities and methods were employed.

This also caused considerable damage to Grek.

"Wonderful!"

"fantastic!"

"Those four big shots fought so well!"

"Truly worthy of being a top expert in adventures in the border region!"

"Awesome! The battle at the border was so hardcore! It was textbook-perfect teamwork and combat!"

"..."

The adventurers in the Secret Realm Hall applauded the battle. Although the battle didn't have dazzling special effects, the combination of various combat skills, spells, and prayers was classic.

Four adventurers simultaneously ventured into the border region.

But now it seems that each has their own strengths, and each person can use several combat skills or spells to pray.

Their combat awareness and intellect are top-notch; they always make the right choices at the right time, managing to overpower the incredibly strong Grek despite being weaker.

But just as the adventurers were gaining the upper hand...

A sudden change occurred!

Two ferocious figures descended from the sky.

When the other adventurers saw the two monsters that had appeared on the battlefield, they were all horrified, for what appeared there were none other than two spider-like nobles with limbs, each wielding several swords and shields.

These guys must have been attracted by the noise of the battle.

The adventurers could sense shouts and howls coming from afar, as well as the sounds of people moving around nearby. It seemed that more and more soldiers and knights were heading in this direction.

Trouble!
"Kill them!"

Greck let out a roar.

The nobleman who had his limbs extended immediately launched an attack on the adventurer.

The four adventurers wore solemn expressions. They knew that the limb-splitting nobles were not easy to deal with, but four against two was not a big problem. The biggest difficulty in this battle was Grek and other reinforcements that might arrive at any time.

No more delay!
The battle must end within four or five minutes!
Grek was already seriously injured and his combat strength was greatly reduced. His immediate priority was to eliminate the two troublesome limb-splitting nobles.

As the adventurers launched their attack on the limb-bearing noble, Grek had already retreated alone to the side of the wyvern's rotting, stinking corpse. Without hesitation, he raised his giant axe and slammed it into his own left arm.

"what--!"

Grek screamed in agony as his left hand was severed, bleeding profusely. He then walked up to the dragon corpse and plunged the severed arm into its neck.

"What is he doing?"

"Could it be that you want to..."

Grek plunged the severed arm into the dragon corpse's neck and began to tear and pull frantically, separating the entire dragon head from the corpse and eventually fusing it completely onto his left arm.

really!

It's a limb restoration!
However, unlike in the past when they took over useless limbs of the Golden Clan.

Grek forcibly grafted a rotten dragon's head onto his left hand, and his previously weakened aura was significantly enhanced at this moment.

at the same time.

That rotten and smelly faucet.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up with an eerie light.

It roared from its throat and spewed out blazing dragon fire.

"I have succeeded..." Grek's eyes were filled with fervor upon seeing this.

The battle axe he holds in his right hand represents the honor of the First King, Gofrey, because Gofrey was once a powerful figure who swept across the borderlands with his battle axe, and this golden giant axe was originally forged for Gofrey.

The dragon head on his left hand represents the honor of Goldwin. In the ancient dragon war, Goldwin not only protected the Golden Tree and the royal city, but also completely subdued the ancient dragon clan and obtained the power of the dragons.

nowadays.

Gofrey's battle axe.

The power of the dragon race is entirely in my hands.

My body also has countless arms with golden bloodlines.

Grek's eyes grew increasingly fanatical and manic, almost to the point of losing his mind. He believed that he could definitely avenge his previous humiliation and defeat the Valkyrie who had once humiliated him, because he would soon surpass everyone!

"My ancestors..."

Grek raised the dragon head in his left hand high.

It roared and spewed out a huge pillar of fire that was over ten meters high.

"Please bear witness!"

The adventurers of Miracle City were also greatly alarmed.

Everyone was stunned by Greck's bizarre and powerful abilities.

"The fact that a long-dead, rotting dragon corpse can be used instantly is insane!"

"It's a good thing that Grek took the wrong path and installed a bunch of useless arms on himself. If he had already inserted parts of the strongest creatures into his body, we wouldn't even be fighting!"

"..."

After showing off, Grek suddenly unleashed a burst of flame from his left hand at the adventurer. The dragon flames covered an area of ​​twenty or thirty meters, burning everything in their path to a bright red.

The two seriously injured nobles who had undergone limb amputation did not die at the hands of the adventurers.

Instead, they were engulfed by dragon flames and died on the spot.

The four adventurers had not expected Grek to be so ferocious and violent, so they immediately kept their distance and did not confront him head-on, each seeking cover to avoid the impact of the flames.

The flamethrower proved ineffective.

Greck flicked his dragon head and launched flames into the air.

Dozens of fiery meteor-like flames launched a near-carpet bombardment in a parabolic arc.

Each shot was as powerful as an anti-tank rocket, instantly covering the area where the adventurer was located. Even with cover, the adventurer was badly injured and left in a sorry state.

"This guy has gone mad!"

"Dragon Flame is indeed very powerful."

"But this power cannot be used indefinitely!"

"That's right. Such a wide-range, high-damage attack must have caused a lot of energy consumption. Once they're exhausted, that's our chance to make our move!"

All four adventurers calmly analyzed the battle situation and waited for the right opportunity.

However, the dragon's various attacks ended after a few seconds. The four adventurers immediately realized that their opportunity had come. They quickly drank the red and blue Holy Grail Dew to recover from their injuries and replenish their mana to full strength.

"It's now!"

"The last chance!"

The adventurer's Holy Grail Dew has run out.

They could no longer withstand another wave of relentless bombardment.

Meanwhile, a large number of Grik soldiers and Grik knights are about to arrive on the battlefield.

If this wave of attacks fails to kill Greke, the challenge will be 100% unsuccessful. After unleashing his fury, Greke also fell into a brief period of weakness.

Gravity Rock Ball!
Shining Sword Array!

Throw fire!

Grek was once again forced into retreat, and immediately began to slash wildly with his golden battle axe, creating whirlwinds in his counterattack, but he failed to hit the cunning adventurer even once.

Wanshan Guhong seized the opportunity of the air raid and used his hound-like movement technique to arrive in an instant. He slashed at Grek's right hand, which was holding a giant axe, with his sword. Although he could not cut off the arm, which was harder than steel, he successfully knocked the battle axe away.

Grek could only try to counterattack with his left-hand dragon head.

The White Crane Hermit swung his greatsword, the Sword Skeleton, and slammed it heavily into the dragon's head. The massive blade suppressed the dragon's head, creating another precious opportunity for the others to deal damage!

"go to hell!"

Mengbai and Bi'anhua simultaneously unleashed the Kalia Greatsword, the two magical giants piercing into Greik's massive body from different directions, almost at the same time.

Blood splatters!

This time it caused fatal damage!

Grek staggered backward, the madness fading from his eyes, leaving only confusion and bewilderment. He then knelt down helplessly and slowly collapsed.

"I am... the Golden Lord... One day... we will return home... together... to our homeland at the foot of the Golden Tree!"

You have defeated a demigod!

You have gained "Memories of Limb Reattachment!"

You have obtained "Greek's Great Rune"!

A tense battle.

The curtain has finally come to a complete close.

The four of them teamed up and defeated Grek in just one round!

Such achievements and performance were undoubtedly beyond everyone's expectations, making all the adventurers in Miracle City overjoyed and excited!
