Chapter 561: Crimson me of the ‘zing me’


    Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion


    After taking out ‘Snowman’ Snow, the four of them arrived at the second floor of the cabin.


    As the special note of the first boss had stated that Snow was just one of the three generals serving under ckbeard Ditch, Zhang Yang and thedies knew that they would still have to defeat two more general bosses before they could actually face ckbeard Ditch himself!


    The monsters on the second floor of the cabin were also simr to the monsters on the first floor of the deck. Other than the pirates of different races and species, there was also a new type of monster: Pirate’s Parrot.


    [Pirate’s Parrot] (Elite, Beast)


    Level: 125


    HP: 1,250,000


    Defense: 1,300


    Attack: 7,381 - 11,381


    Skills:


    [Dive]: Charges down from the sky, causing 150% Physical Damage to the target. Causes the target to fall. The target will be able to get back to their feet after 1 second.


    [Parrot’s Infection]: Infects the target with a virus, reduces target’s damage dealt by 10%. There is a 10% rate of causing the target to have a fever once every 3 seconds. The target will descend into a chaotic state and cannot attack. Lasts for 15 seconds.


    Note: Parrots are the symbol of pirates, how can a pirate ship be a real pirate ship without a parrot on it?


    The irritating thing about these parrots was that they woulde in a pack of 3 or 4. Because they were small, they could attack one target at the same time. Furthermore, these parrots certainly belong to the Agility-Type ssification. Their movements were extremely agile. Zhang Yang could not keep up with their speed, and was not even able to use his Supporting Attacks.


    Fortunately, Zhang Yang and thedies were powerful enough to take it all. Zhang Yang could still endure the assaults from 3 to 4 monsters at the same time. Zhang Yang and thedies proceeded forward without much of a problem, although the parrots greatly hindered them. It took them more than 3 hours to arrive at the end of the floor. Finally, they came face to face with the second boss, Crimson me!


    Surprisingly, this pirate looked like well-dressed, muscr, middle-age man with a high cor around his neck. He looked more like a cocky general instead of an atrocious pirate!


    [Crimson me of the ‘zing me’] (Violet-tinum, Humanoid)


    Level: 130


    HP: 13,000,000


    Defense: 3,540


    Attack: 17,739 - 21,739 (Determined as Physical Attack, but cause Fire Damage)


    Skills:


    [Parrot Summoning]: ording to rumors, before Crimson me was a pirate, he used to be a parrot seller. He has an amazing ability ofmunicating with parrots. Summons parrots based on the number of yers on his aggro list.


    [Roaring me Transformation]: Transforms into ‘zing me’. Increases 20% Fire Damage dealt. Immune to all Fire Damage and Status Restriction Skills received. Reduces 50% Physical Damage received. However, increases Frost Damage received by an additional 100%.


    [zing Drift]: When Crimson me enters its {zing me Transformation} form, his body will be flowing with zingva. All enemies that touch him will receive 10,000 Fire Damage.


    Note: One of the three generals under ckbeard Ditch. The user of ‘zing me’ Devil Fruit. Has the power to control fire.


    Zhang Yang was surprised and happy at the same time, after taking note of the {Roaring me Transformation} Skill on the boss description. He knew that there was a very high chance that the boss would drop a fragment of the [Roaring me Inheritance] upon defeat!


    Did theye across King Solomon’s mine or something?


    Back in the mountains of ‘12 Zodiacs’, it was still reasonable to get few pieces of Yellow-Gold equipment that were dropped by earlier bosses like the Tiger King. It was simply because there were 12 bosses back there. However, they also got a few pieces of Violet-tinum Tier equipment and one Violet-tinum Tier [Mount] for every boss they slew! That alone was already more than enough for them toe to the ind!


    Now, this boss was even more generous. He even dropped a fragment for a ss B [Inheritance].


    A ss B [Inheritance]! Any guild would like to have their hands on [Inheritances] of such ss. They had actually stumbled across 2 ss B [Inheritance] in a row, like freebies! What kind of luck would that be?


    Well, this was definitely a treasure trove!


    Even if the quest actually ends here, Zhang Yang was already contented. After all, he and his little party ofdies had already gained more than enough for the trip.


    If the system is so generous, as if the girl that you adored for N years suddenly epted your ‘mating call’, would you still pretend to be a decent guy? Of course you would just take the shot!


    Zhang Yang let out a battle cry and charged towards the boss.


    "Snow... that imbecile..." the boss humphed coldly as zing mes started igniting across his entire body. It seemed that he was already transformed into his {Roaring me Transformation} form. Just like the first contact with the previous boss Snow, Zhang Yang swung his [Sword of Purging Devourer] while Crimson me swung his fist. It seemed that this boss was as brave as thest boss, Snow. They were both powerful warriors who did not fear meeting their enemies head-on. Things were a little different for Crimson me. Instead of being covered with frost, the zing mes on his body instantly formed a barrier that looked like a forcefield around his fist.


    Boom!


    The fist and the de shed with each other. Zhang Yang was sent a few steps back by the impact of that punch. Crimson me charged in and threw another ming fist at Zhang Yang, not even giving him a moment to catch his breath!


    The great battle started off. Wei Yan Er, Han Ying Xue and Daffodil Daydream were already in their positions.


    However, Daffodil Daydream felt out of ce. She was able to cause double damage to Snow in the previous boss battle. But now, she could only stare at the boss, throwing ineffective fire attacks at Crimson me. All she could do in order to help was to summon out her Battle Companion to provide some support on their damage output. Meanwhile, she could only stand at a corner and make sure that she was still alive by the end of the battle.


    On the other hand, although all Fire Attacks that Felice had on her were ineffective against the boss, the littledy could still transform into her humanoid form. She could still attack the boss effectively with her normal attacks. Although her damage output had been heavily affected, it was way better than Daffodil Daydream who could not do a single damage to the boss.


    Pak! Pak! Pak!


    The boilingva on the body of the boss was dripping all over the floor, forming a sea ofva beneath his legs. Those mes that sprouted off the magma could cause 10,000 Nature Damage to whoever who touches them. Although 10,000 damage wasn’t that much, receiving 10,000 damage every second could still be terrifying. Even Zhang Yang wouldn’t dare to stand still and let the mes burn him for nothing. So he moved around agilely while kiting the boss along.


    Fortunately, theva required some time before it could turn the ground into a sea of zing mes that started scorching yers. Zhang Yang only needed to move to another spot once every 10 seconds. However, they could not afford to prolong the battle. Eventually, the entire floor avable to them would be up in mes.


    Daffodil Daydream was basically ‘riding shotgun’ for this battle while Zhang Yang, Wei Yan Er and Felice were all sharing the wheel to poor effect. Nothing was being carried out efficiently in the battle. The only one that could still promise a full effect from its Basic Attack was Thunderhawk.


    A brief momentter, the boss suddenly let out a roar, "My little birdies,e and meet your guests!"


    Shoof! Four elite Tier Parrots puffed out of thin air. They dive bombed Han Ying Xue.


    It could not be helped. After all, the monsters had been spawned right in the middle of the battle, without any sign of warning. Without a Tanker and other DPS yers blocking off the parrots, their first target would naturally be the Healer, Han Ying Xue.


    However, the words of the boss struck the four of them with the impact of a thunderbolt. So great was the impact that foam started leaking out of their mouths. They almost fell to the ground in epileptic fits, almost drowning in their own foam, right before the boss, there and then.


    Zhang Yang quickly activated his {Charge} and shed into one of the Parrots. The moment he came into contact with the Parrot, he stomped his feet heavily onto the ground and activated his {Thunder Strike}. That instantly reduced the movement speed of all four Parrots. 3 secondster, Zhang Yang’s {Horizontal Sweep} was ready to be dispatched. He activated {Horizontal Sweep} and swiped his [Sword of Purging Devourer] at the four Parrots. Instantly, all of the parrots received more than 50,000 damage and they immediately turned to Zhang Yang.


    Daffodil Daydream finally found her use for the battle. Felice had also transformed into her Dragonhawk form and started to attack the parrots with her AoE attacks. Everyone turned to eliminate the parrots. They all understood. If they do not kill the monsters as swiftly as possible, they would only be wasting Han Ying Xue’s efforts. The risk of being overwhelmed by a second wave of Parrots also grew, the longer they leave them be. If the second wave of Parrots ever gets summoned and reinforces the first wave, it would be thest straw that breaks the camel’s back.


    Fortunately, these parrots were not immune to Fire Attacks. They did not have the ability to reduce Physical Attacks by 50% as well. After the four of them focused their full firepower on the Parrots, the Parrots were taken down, leaving nothing but scattered feathers all across the floor.


    It was really frustrating to see the boss’ Fire Damage Immunity and also the ability to reduce Physical Damage by 50%. It was a huge dampener to the firepower of the entire party. However, as a Violet-tinum Tier boss, the Attack Power of Crimson me was not particrly high. The HP bar of the boss was reduced down to 50% beforeva had even covered half of the ground.


    But, the {Roaring me Transformation} of the boss was truly visually awe-inspiring.


    Zhang Yang and Wei Yan Er could feel that they were plunging their weapons into a pile ofva. It was soft, and there was hardly any sensation of their hard weapons hitting other hard surfaces. It was just like a kid pping away at a pile of mud! Every time a de slid across the boss, the body of the boss would break like how a stic bag would. Lava would ooze out of the cut and drip onto the floor. Every single drop of theva was boiling hot!


    Wei Yan Er seemed to be a little interested in the boss, "Interesting, this boss is like ava man!"


    "The boss would probably be dropping a piece of a fragment for the [Roaring me Inheritance]. So you better think it through carefully. Or else you will regret it after I hand it over to other members of our guild!"


    "Tsk! I’m not a child anymore! Why would I be crying over that kind of trivial matter?" Wei Yan Er frowned a little while she looked at Zhang Yang. Still, her expression did betray a hint of uncertainty.


    Zhang Yang did not specifically demand for Sun Xin Yu, Han Ying Xue and the other gang members to get a ss S [Inheritance] or a ss A [Inheritance]. There was only a total of 6 ss S [Inheritance] in the entire server. So it would be wise not to waste time on that. Meanwhile, although ss A [Inheritances] were not as unique as ss S [Inheritances], you would stand a better chanceing across a dancing panda in a bamboo forest.


    In his past life, only Imperial Sky, Crimson Rage and The Radiance had yers with ss A [Inheritance] in their guilds. Furthermore, Imperial Sky had two yers with ss A [Inheritance], making them indisputably the Number One guild in the entire game!


    Unfortunately, Sun Xin Yu had always been a loner. Although she was the only Thief with a ss S [Inheritance], she had never joined any guilds. Otherwise, Imperial Sky’s position could have been challenged!


    All that considered, it would already be enough for Zhang Yang’s party members to get at least a ss B [Inheritance]. Getting a ss A [Inheritance] would require luck. Insisting on getting a ss A [Inheritance] would only make one miserable. After all, everyone had witnessed the power that high ss [Inheritances] could offer. No one would be generous enough to sell a fragment of ss A [Inheritance]!


    After a flurry of attacks from Zhang Yang and his small party, the boss managed to pave two thirds of the floor in the cabin withva. That was the moment thest hit struck and the four of them took down Crimson me. The boss dropped a few Violet-tinum Tier equipment and a few Yellow-Gold Tier equipment. The Violet-tinum Tier equipment did not have any reductions in their Required Levels, as this boss was not a Top Tier boss. Zhang Yang shoved everything into his inventory. As predicted, the fragment for the [Roaring me Inheritance] appeared on the ground!


    It was a ss B [Inheritance]!


    Even Han Ying Xue was a little shocked, then she said, "Well, this ce sure is a ce full of surprises and treasures! We have gotten two invaluable fragments of [Inheritances]! I wonder what other treasure awaits us further ahead!"


    Getting a fragment of an [Inheritance] was as good as getting a full set of it. The fragments would resonate and call out to each other. It would only be a matter of time before yers can get the full set. Two fragments of two different [Inheritance]? Zhang Yang still couldn’t believe that they were greeted with such generous gifts upon killing the first two bosses.


    Zhang Yang nodded absent-mindedly, more confused than ever. He had never heard of an ind with such a name in his previous life!
