Chapter 150: Chapter 150: Vertical Pupils

Translator: 549690339

The rocket launcher was destroyed!

However, Song Jian couldn’t care less about that right now. Enduring the sting in his eyes, he opened them as the shockwave from the explosion gradually disappeared, and the surroundings became darker, returning to their nighttime appearance.

The three-eyed Zombie was lying on its back, convulsing. All three of its eyes were tightly shut, with black liquid seeping from the corners, flowing down its cheeks. It looked as if three wriggling earthworms were crawling on its face. “It’s still not dead?” Song Jian was astonished. He knew that he had concentrated all of his Invisible Sword Qi on the rocket launcher, so the power of this strike was equivalent to that of a rocket launcher plus the power of a hundred Invisible Sword Qi.

Even if the BOSS still had more than 80% of its Vitality Points, Song Jian believed that no monster could withstand such a terrifying blow.

Slowly approaching the BOSS, Song Jian seemed to sense his closeness. The BOSS’S body began to struggle, letting out low, hoarse roars. Its right claw scraped the floor, leaving a series of marks, and an aura of rage still emanated from it. But in Song Jian’s eyes, all he could see was its impending doom.

The BOSS opened its two main eyes, revealing red glows emanating from the pupils. However, there was now a black crack in the center of each eye, splitting the pupils in two.

The vertical pupil on the forehead also slowly opened, its original silver color now transformed into a dark, bottomless hole.

The BOSS struggled to sit up, but no matter what, it couldn’t stand. It seemed that its lower body was paralyzed.

Hum-

Silver Sword Qi, three meters long, burst forth from Song Jian’s left index finger and stabbed toward the BOSS’S forehead. The silver Sword Qi pierced into the vertical pupil and protruded more than a foot out from the back of its head.

The BOSS’S entire body began to shake violently. Its body stiffened, its momentum reaching a peak for an instant before it quickly weakened.

“Heli-”

A puff of breath came from the throat of the three-eyed Zombie. Its breath rapidly faded, and its body went limp, seemingly hanging on Song Jian’s Sword Finger. Its right claw fell feebly.

Whoosh-

The three-meter-long silver Sword Qi disappeared, and the BOSS’S upper body fell backward.

System: You used the Sword Finger skill to kill a LVio three-eyed Zombie (Elite) and gained 1280 Experience Points.

System: your Experience Points are now full. Please complete the promotion task as soon as possible; otherwise, your level will not be able to continue to increase.

After seeing the system information prompt, Song Jian paused and hurriedly opened his personal attribute interface. Sure enough, the experience bar behind level 10 had reached 99%. It was only a tiny bit away from advancing to level 11, but it seemed like an insurmountable chasm.

“I must become a professional to continue leveling up?” Song Jian’s face turned ugly. If that were the case, it would be difficult for him to maintain his level advantage. After all, player levels were now rising, most of them reaching level five or six, and some even reaching level seven or eight. Furthermore, these people had not completed the Safe House main quest. Once they started completing the Safe House main quest, their levels would skyrocket in a short period because killing all the monsters within one kilometer of the Safe House would be enough to raise their levels by two or three.

Song Jian himself had gone straight from level seven to level ten after completing the Safe House creation task.

Glancing at the main quest, he still needed to find seven combat mentors. Song Jian shook his head, closed the mission panel, and walked toward the corpse of the three-eyed Zombie.

At this moment, the body of the three-eyed zombie began to burn with transparent flames, and some of its limbs had turned into black ash. However, the speed of the BOSS turning into ash was obviously slower than that of ordinary monsters;

Next to the body of the three-eyed zombie, several items emitting various colors of lights were scattered. Among them, an item emitting a silver light caught Song Jian’s eye;

“Silver quality item, what great luck!”

Although he knew that hunting unique zombies would yield good rewards, Song Jian didn’t expect the three-eyed zombie to actually drop a silver item. After all, Song Jian had hunted down many level 10 elite BOSSes, but the loot was not entirely satisfactory;

“Could it be that only when hunting them in their fully recovered state at night can these BOSSes drop good stuff?” Song Jian speculated in his heart;

However, this battle was really fraught with danger, nearly costing Song Jian his life. The attack power of the three-eyed zombie was just too ferocious. Before Song Jian even got close, he had already lost more than 200 Vitality Points;

If it weren’t for the fact that he had risked his rocket launcher in the end, it would have been hard to say who would have died;

Thinking of this, Song Jian looked at the rocket launcher lying in his inventory with a distraught expression. The material of the launcher couldn’t withstand the full force of the Invisible Sword Qi. Although it barely completed one attack, the rocket launcher was damaged, rendering it unusable;

At this moment, the attributes of the rocket launcher were marked with “damaged, unusable,” and it couldn’t even be placed in the equipment slot;

The effectiveness of the rocket launcher was exceptional, and it was one of Song Jian’s most powerful weapons. Now that it was damaged, Song Jian’s overall strength had weakened;

Song Jian now pinned his hopes on the items dropped by the three-eyed zombie BOSS, hoping they would somewhat make up for his losses;

“What is this?” Song Jian first picked up the item emitting silver light. This object had a metallic shine and was only about a third of the size of a palm. It looked like a half-opened eye;

“Vertical Pupil (Silver), External Equipment, Position: Forehead; Equipment Effect: All attributes +1, Special Effect 1: Piercing Illusion (Passive), enables the user to see through illusions, invisibility, and other false states up to level 6; Special Effect 2: Gaze of Death (Active), deals continuous damage (15+60% Physical damage +15+40% Mental damage) for 5 seconds; Skill Range: 15 meters; Skill Consumption: 50% Spirit Points; Special Effect 3: Weakness Removal (Passive), protects the head, increases head defense by 100%, your head will no longer be a weak spot on your body; Usage Requirement: Level 10; Can be brought out of the game: Yes”

“External equipment, what kind of equipment is this? There isn’t a slot for this in the equipment section!” Song Jian closely examined the “Vertical Pupil” in his hand;

The attributes of this item were very strong, with all attributes increased by one, which was equivalent to gaining seven attribute points and similar to consuming seven Attribute Fruits. This was a huge gain;

The three additional special effects were also very practical. The first one, Piercing Illusion, allowed the user to see through illusions and hidden effects such as invisibility, so they wouldn’t fear thieves’ stealth ability. Although it could only break through false states below level 6, Song Jian believed that no player would put all their skill points into this kind of auxiliary combat skill at this point;

The second skill, “Gaze of Death,” was the ultimate move of the three-eyed BOSS, causing both physical and mental damage to targets simultaneously, with a combination of a fixed and percentage-based damage. Although it consumed a lot of energy, its power was terrifying. With Song Jian’s current attributes, he could cause (45+36) points of damage per second to a target. Even if the opponent’s defense and resistance were taken into account, the total damage shouldn’t be lower than 50 points. With five seconds of continuous damage, the total damage would be more than 250 points. Song Jian believed that no player could withstand this attack from him at present;

The third special effect provided complete protection to the head, so Song Jian no longer had to worry about other players sniping his head. Without the weak point, Song Jian believed that no player could defeat him in one hit;

“I’ve hit the jackpot, not bad, not bad at all!” Song Jian wore an excited smile on his face as he held the metallic “Vertical Pupil” and examined it over and over again;

“But, how should I use this?”
