Chapter 251: Chapter 250: King of Beasts, Husky!
Before this, the Shadow Predator was only equipped with the Level 45, 6-star quality [Predator Set].
The underperforming Shadow Predator had hardly gotten any opportunities to shine recently, almost ending up as forgotten as the Skeleton King, collecting dust in the pet space.
Now outfitted with a Level 60, 8-star S-rank Eternal Set, the Shadow Predator was instantly transformed—like replacing an old rifle with a cannon, or turning a pheasant into a phoenix.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[Shadow Predator] (Physical-Type · Epic-Grade)
[Level: 60]
[Physical Attack Power: 9,480]
[Physical Defense: 4,600]
[Magic Defense: 4,490]
[Health: 83,700]
[Mana: 18,600]
[Skills: Night Reaper (S-Rank Rare), Shadow Ambush (S-Rank), Shadow Hunt (S-Rank)…]
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Although it couldn't compare to the Extinction Black Dragon,
The Black Dragon had a unique passive ability, Level 5 Black Dragon Bloodline: +100% to all attributes.
However, for the current stage, the Shadow Predator's stats were already exceptional.
Returning to the Ninth World, Zhang Yue activated the World Boss Challenge.
WHOOSH!
A white light descended, and Zhang Yue landed on a desolate island.
On the island stood a massive creature resembling Godzilla—a super behemoth.
It was the Ninth World's final boss and the strongest Beast of the Beast Kingdom—
[King of Beasts, Husky (Physical-Type, Level 60, 9-star SSS-Rank Boss)]
As the King of Beasts, Husky was in the same level and rank as the Sky Centipede Zhang Yue had previously encountered. However, its stats were far superior.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[King of Beasts, Husky] (Physical-Type · 9-star Boss)
[Level: 60]
[Grade: SSS Beast] (+150% suppression against humans)
[Physical Attack Power: 15,500]
[Physical Defense: 7,550]
[Magic Defense: 7,300]
[Health: 7.4 million]
[Skills: King's Roar (S-Rank), Apocalypse Beam (S-Rank), Death Stomp (S-Rank)…]
[Description: As the King of the Beast Clan, King Husky exudes an aura of dominance and command that is unparalleled. Facing Husky means standing against the entire Beast Clan…]
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
BOOM!
BOOM!
The King of Beasts, Husky, approached Zhang Yue step by step, shaking the earth with each stride.
As an SSS-level Boss Beast, historical records indicated that the success rate for challenging the Ninth World's Boss was the lowest among all worlds.
Typically, even a hundred-man team would struggle against Husky.
Soloing it? Unheard of.
But Zhang Yue was determined to break records and set a new precedent.
Once Husky entered attack range, it struck first.
BOOM!
Opening its blood-stained jaws, it shot a powerful blue beam from its mouth.
Zhang Yue dodged the attack with a teleportation skill while counterattacking with his staff.
Simultaneously, he summoned the Extinction Black Dragon and Shadow Predator to join the fight.
Even with an A-rank Eternal Set, facing an SSS-rank Beast resulted in an 80% suppression effect, limiting Zhang Yue's damage output to only around 15,000 per hit.
At this moment, the primary damage dealer was still the Extinction Black Dragon with its SSS-rank Eternal Set.
Before activating the World Boss Challenge, Zhang Yue had intentionally sent the Black Dragon out to grind on small Beasts, fully stacking its unique passive [World Destroyer], gaining a 150% damage boost.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
A series of S-Rank skills—World-Ending Dragon Blast, Explosive Piercing, and Combustive Strike—landed on Husky, each inflicting 170,000 to 200,000 points of massive damage.
Of course, the Shadow Predator, now equipped with the S-rank Eternal Set, was no slouch either.
As an assassin specializing in single-target bursts and critical hits, The Shadow Predator shone in this one-on-one battle.
With the S-rank Eternal Set nullifying 100% of suppression effects, Husky could still suppress the Predator by 50%.
Even at half its potential, the Shadow Predator landed one critical hit after another, dealing over 140,000 damage each time.
Without the suppression, the Predator's single-target damage could have easily surpassed the Black Dragon's.
In comparison, Zhang Yue himself was pitifully weak as the owner.
Fortunately, he wasn't the weakest—
That honor went to the Hell Skeleton King.
With pets dishing out damage ten times his own, Zhang Yue simply gave up trying.
Every nine seconds, he cast his ultimate SSS skill, Voidless: God-Slaying Curse.
Under the relentless bombardment of the Black Dragon and the Predator, each dealing tens of thousands of damage per hit,
Husky, with its 7.4 million HP, couldn't withstand the assault.
Its health bar plummeted rapidly.
The battle ended in less than a minute.
ROAR!
With a sorrowful cry, Husky's massive body collapsed.
At the same time, a pleasant system notification echoed—
[Ding~ Congratulations on slaying the Ninth World Boss, King of Beasts, Husky, and clearing the Beast Kingdom. The portal to the Tenth World, Sky Castle, has been unlocked]
[System Announcement] (Ninth World):
[Ding~ Congratulations to the player [Zero] for clearing the Ninth World…]
Just as Lin Tian, Wu Haotian, and the rest of the Destiny Hall members arrived in the Ninth World, they heard the announcement.
Everyone was stunned.
"Holy crap! We just got here, and the Guild Leader already cleared the Ninth World?"
"Monster!"
Li Yue sighed, "If we don't work harder, I feel like seeing the Guild Leader online will become a luxury."
Warrior Night Owl lamented bitterly, "I'm running low on energy. What do I do now…"
Before he could finish, Zhang Yue suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Here's your bonus for this month."
The next moment, everyone received a notification simultaneously: [Ding~ You've received 100,000,000 energy transferred via [Demon Contract] from player [Zero]]
"One hundred million energy?"
Everyone was ecstatic, their eyes shining with excitement.
Zhang Yue continued, "We're launching a guild competition. The top three players to clear the Ninth World will each receive 100,000 in prize money and 1 billion energy."
This announcement sent everyone into a frenzy.
"No Guild Leader is this generous!"
"So generous! I'd sacrifice everything for Heavens Hall."
"I'd wash your clothes and mop your floors, Guild Leader."
"I'd even have a little brother for you…"
"Okay, that's too much!"
For Zhang Yue, who had a fortune in the trillions and measured energy in quadrillions, these rewards were trivial.
With reinvigorated motivation, the Heavens Hall members rushed out of the city to hunt Beasts.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yue activated the portal to the Tenth World.
[Ding~ Welcome to the Tenth World, Sky Castle…]
