Thriller Paradise

Chapter 509: Island of Devil’s Maw (15)

“Hmm… I better stay back!” Feng Bujue hesitated for only 2 seconds before deciding to move away from this place. The Bell of Jin Gang had never rung with such intensity before. No matter what kind of monster that showed up next, Brother Jue had no confidence he would win it. Furthermore, defeating a monster in Thriller Paradise would not drop any reward, and so for monsters that were unrelated to the main quest, indeed there was no reason to purposely taunt them.

Therefore, after some contemplation (actually Brother Jue was waiting for the system to give any hint), he chose to run away. But of course… the system had other plan for him…

Buzz…

A humming sound suddenly came from behind Feng Bujue. Following that strange noise, a giant, invisible barrier appeared. This barrier was like an up-ended bowl and practically ‘covered’ the whole area. At that moment, Brother Jue was about to turn away and run, he had already started to use Geppo. With the buff from Void Steps, the Geppo was particularly effective, Feng Bujue was like a cannonball that had been shot out. And so… his face landed squarely on the barrier and caused him to lose 9 percent Life Points…

Even though Feng Bujue had the OP ability of zero-time simulation, under that circumstance, even though he had predicted the result, he could not physically stop it.

“Hmm… so I am not allowed to retreat…” As Feng Bujue rubbed his face, he said darkly. Because the amount of Life Points lost was still within his acceptable range (the loss that he received from the poisonous fog had recovered before this), so he was still quite calm.

“So a fight is inevitable…” Feng Bujue turned around to face the boss that was slowly surfacing out from the shit swamp, mumbling, “Nightmare mode has no limitation on the player’s fighting ability, do you think I will be afraid of you…”

Hu long long long…

In these few seconds, the hidden boss’ upper body reached out from the whirlpool. It looked just like the shape of a human but about 5 times larger. The whole body was covered in dark brown stain so one could not tell its appearance for sure. But from the rest of the body… it was quite telling that this boss was a female.

At that moment, the effect of death alert ended and the bell stopped chiming…

Feng Bujue activated the second effect, “to observe the details of a monster (Other than Boss leve).” And… he got nothing.

“As I expected… this is no normal monster.” Feng Bujue thought to himself. [The Bell of Jin Gang’s first effect has just been used on Leideson so I cannot check whether this is an NPC or not but… based on her appearance, there’s a 99 percent chance this is a boss…]

“Oh—” Suddenly a pitiable and long wail interrupted Feng Bujue’s thought. The boss’ cry echoed around the entire swamp. But… the invisible barrier had modified the sound wave when they reached it so when the wailing reached the other players’ ears, they only heard it as the howling of the wind. That meant that… no one would come here to support Brother Jue.

......

“Is that an announcement that the curtain has been raised…” Feng Bujue stepped a few times in the air to fly higher. Several seconds later, he studied the boss closer and the comment was, “Hmm… at least she has a good figure.” If the other players were there, they would be shocked by Brother Jue’s heavy kink but since he was alone, he could be as disgusting as he wanted.

“I hate this so much…!” The boss used her brassy tone to say the first words out of her mouth. The desolation of the tone aside… the moment she spoke, there was an extremely disgusting smell that issued from her mouth. It was like a poisonous dragon that rushed at Brother Jue. The latter leaped away without hesitation and moved even higher in altitude. Obviously, Feng Bujue had made his choice. Instead of dying in the mist of shit, he’d rather die suffocating from the poisonous gas…

“Eh? How come I’m fine?” When he was 20 metres in the air, Brother Jue had a startling discovery. “Oh, the barrier has blocked the poisonous gas out!” This small surprise did not sustain him for long, at most only 3 seconds…

3 seconds later, with a whoosh, a ball of shit the size of a big pot flew at him…

At that moment, Feng Bujue had just steadied himself. His mind was still churning. Facing this sudden scary attack, his reflex was rather slow. It was not that he had no way to counter this attack but he really did not want to use some of the ways available to him. For example, the zero time simulation told him that: the best strategy to deal with this attack with the least amount of exhaustion was—to curl up the body and block it.

Was he going to do that?

Well, you could guess the answer…

Therefore, Brother Jue reacted under the premise that he would not be ‘polluted’. Of course, that meant that… the difficulty, the risk and the exhaustion would all increase but he had no other choice. Brother Jue instantly activated Body Enhancement Spell-Upgraded and used super high speed to unleash a series of consistent and mini Geppo and forced his body to twirl around in the air. Finally, he successfully used an impossible pose… to swerve around the edge of the shit ball and just barely evaded the attack.

“Hey beauty, what’s your name? Can you please put down the shit and we can talk this out?” After avoiding the first attack, Feng Bujue quickly tried to communicate with the boss; even though the chance of that was low, there was still a probability that this boss battle could be resolve without a fight and if there was a chance, he had to give it a try.”

“I… I am…” The boss’ voice softened as she seemed to be remembering and thinking. “I am… Lotus Soul… The most beautiful… and the purest soul at the kingdom of the dead…”

[You have to be kidding me!] Feng Bujue mocked internally. [If you tell me you are Ragnaros who has undergone a sex change and who has fallen into a shit hole, I might have believed you (A boss from WoW, a giant fire demon that had its lower body covered in a swirl of firestorm. He stood inside a volcano during his boss fight)…]

“He… ha ha…” It appeared like this Lotus Soul suffered from some mental issue. She suddenly chuckled to herself. The horrible stench evaporated from her skin and rose upwards. “Traveller from another world… do you know when is the most beautiful moment in the world…?”

“Do tell…” When Feng Bujue replied, he kept adjusting his position to avoid the horrible gas.

“The most beautiful moment is when something precious is born or created.” Lotus Soul replied but before Feng Bujue could add anything, she followed it up with another question, “Then do you know… when is the ugliest moment in the world?”

At that moment, Feng Bujue had a very bad feeling, he knew this was a rhetorical question, the boss would herself reveal the answer. And the answer… would be sad and despairing and mostly likely be accompanied by an insta-death attack…
