Chapter 568: Pouncing Towards The Goddess

Bu Yi seemed to be in a good mood. She, who was normally quiet and gentle, had revealed her cute and lively side, which elevated Lin Jie’s mood too.
He pointed to the huge gem in the Land of Moonfall and said, “I need to go there, after stepping into the range of the gemstone, I will receive over 350 points of damage per second, and the damage might increase as I get nearer to the center.
“350 points of damage?” Bu Yi’s face turned serious—the difficulty of this mission was much higher than she had expected!
350 points of damage per second, so in 10 seconds, he would receive 3,500 points of damage. With the Movement Speed of normal Warriors, about five minutes would be needed to reach the destination, which was a total of 300 seconds. In other words, Bu Yi had to heal at least 100,000 health points! Also, the Damage Dealt by the map might increase.
Lin Jie saw Bu Yi’s pretty face frowning, so he tried to lighten the atmosphere and said, “Don’t worry, I will activate Invincible-type skills when I get close to the center, which is where the highest damage is dealt. So, to us, that part of would be the easiest. You only need to heal me continuously until then.”
Bu Yi thought for a moment, her hands clutching onto her magnificent Stars wand. “Just healing you normally is definitely not enough, I’ll do extreme healing! The healing effect a Berserker receives will increase when in critical health, so I need to keep your HP below 20%. I will try my best to reach the maximum healing effect, but as for how to control yourself to not be instakilled by the map, it is something that you need to consider,” she said.
“Got it!” Lin Jie raised his eyebrows as he did not expect Bu Yi to be quite intimidating once she got serious.
“Hehe, then try your best!” Bu Yi smiled and seemed to be a little embarrassed for her being that serious just now.
“Alright.” Lin Jie nodded and turned around resolutely. He had to face the whole Brilliant Circle of Life! However, with Bu Yi’s help, he would definitely succeed! As for a reason—there was none, just pure trust.
The two of them exchanged glances. Under Bu Yi’s encouraging gaze, Lin Jie ran forward and entered the light released by the Brilliant Circle of Life.
-350!
-350!
…
Waves of damage values popped up, but Lin Jie was not afraid at all as he ran swiftly towards the Goddess of Moon. He did not activate any skills as if he was not wrong Then, the closer he was to the center, the higher the Damage Dealt would be. Therefore, he had to save his skills for later! While advancing at high speed, Lin Jie’s body had nearly turned into a shadow that was difficult to be seen. He frequently flapped his wings on his Holy Light Winged Armor to increase his speed as much as possible.
Bu Yi, on the other hand, was panting slightly. If one observed carefully, they would be able to see the sweat dripping down her tender and white face. She carefully stared at Lin Jie’s movements as when Lin Jie moved, her footsteps also followed as she gradually moved to allow Lin Jie to stay just within the range of her healing, but not any closer. The reason was very simple. She also had to receive damage from the Brilliant Circle of Life! Bu Yi saw that her health points decreased gradually, and when her health bar was lower than 20%, she drank a Slow Restoring Health Potion. At the same time, she released a Heal Renew Spell, which would heal her continuously, not caring about herself anymore.
Ascetic Priest had a passive skill: Light Activation. The effects could only be triggered when one’s health points were lower than 20%, and the target’s health points were also similarly lower than 20%. It would allow all healing and shield-type spells to have an additional 10% to 30% effect. Thus, what Bu Yi had to do was not only help heal Lin Jie but to also heal to the extreme—each and every point of mana had to be converted into the maximum healing!
The distance Lin Jie was from the Goddess of Moon had decreased by 30%, but his health bar had almost dropped to the bottom! That made Lin Jie nervous as he knew Bu Yi wanted to do extreme healing, but he never thought it would be that extreme! When Berserkers’ health dropped below 20%, it belonged to a critical state, so the effects of healing received would increase. Meanwhile, in that 20%, each 5% was a critical point, and when one’s health points reached 5%, the healing effect would increase by 50%!
‘Is it possible she wants my HP to go reach 5%?’
5%, it was no different from dying! Unless Lin Jie used Sea King Scaly Armor, it was also difficult for him to accurately control his health points to such a degree. He could not help but want to turn his head to take a look at Bu Yi, but another thought filled up his mind—if he did not believe in even Bu Yi, then who could he believe?
“F*ck it!” Lin Jie’s eyes turned cold, and he charged forwards once again. Meanwhile, his health points decreased rapidly and finally reached 5%!
At the same moment, when his health bar decreased, a Holy Light spell shone onto him!
+1,957!
Lin Jie’s heart thumped. ‘Such a high healing amount!’ However, behind this high amount of healing was playing a gamble with the death reaper! Only by using all conditions that could increase the healing effect could there be such an absurdly high healing value!
This was like dancing underneath the death reaper’s scythe or walking the fine thread between life and death!
As the healing spell descended upon Lin Jie, a faint Defense Shield was attached to him. That was the additional effect of Stars—the shield had the durability of 15% of the healing amount, but it was broken in the next second. As the distance between the center of the Brilliant Circle of Life and Lin Jie reduced, the damage also increased above one could take. It was a Level 80 map, a place for players who had advanced their jobs to clear, how could a lowly Level 59 Warrior take it?
-680!
A huge damage value popped up from the top of Lin Jie’s head! The higher the damage, the harder it was to control Lin Jie’s health points. If one were careless, they might die.
In the Land of Moonfall, two small figures were trying their best in exchange for a shred of hope! Lin Jie’s Holy Light Winged Armor flapped faster and faster as he charged towards the Goddess of Moon crazily.
Lin Jie’s eyes were calm and cold as he rushed towards the target. At first, Lin Jie did not dare to do such a thing, as if he was not careful, he might lose his life anytime. However, Bu Yi had told him that she would be his most trustworthy partner. He trusted her, so all he had to do was to charge forward! His health points were like a roller coaster. They dropped to the bottom in an instant, and Lin Jie was about to die, and then Bu Yi’s healing reached Lin Jie, increasing his health bar rapidly once again, and he escaped death.
-1,025!
…
The damage deducted was increasing higher and higher—the distance between Lin Jie and the Goddess of Moon also became shorter. There were less than 100 yards left!
“Holy Light Winged Armor! Death Rage! Wind Walk!” roared Lin Jie, and with a stomp of his feet, a whirlwind with the smell of blood suddenly appeared and disappeared.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Everywhere Lin Jie went was filled with fierce, bloody wind. His speed was too fast for his figure to even be seen, and in the blink of an eye, he had traveled forward by a huge distance!
Meanwhile, that was the most fearsome place!
The Brilliant Circle of Life had formed shadows. Some were Warriors holding crescent sickles with crescent armors, some were Mages holding crescent magic books channeling magic spells, and so on. These shadows attacked Lin Jie—that was the exhibition of intelligence formed by the Brilliant Circle of Life from absorbing the power of the Goddess of Moon to the maximum.
“Ten Shields Spell! Lin Jie, you can do it!” Bu Yi’s faint voice could be heard from behind, then layers of Power Word Shield enveloped Lin Jie.
“Dark Chaotic Hole!” Lin Jie lifted his Broken Blade high. The two seconds of Immunity were enough for him to break through the encirclement of the monsters! The attacks of the monsters all missed, and Lin Jie ran towards where the Goddess of Moon was, and he stretched out his hand to reach for the diamond-shaped gemstone shining brightly.
Ding~
—’You have accidentally discovered the sealed Goddess of Moon when exploring the Star Elves’ Tomb.’
—’Just who is it who dared blaspheme against a god!’
—’You angrily murmured and swore to save her. Your actions have moved the Goddess of Moon. Your mana has increased by 500 points, and your Mana Recovery Speed has increased by 100%. You have received an additional 50 points of Wisdom.’
Lin Jie raised his brows, who would have thought that the rewards would be so rich from just getting close to the Goddess of Moon!? Just how abundant would the reward be if he rescued the Goddess of Moon?
At that moment, a giant-like figure appeared in front of him. It had two curved horns and looked hideous. That Giant opened its mouth wide, and chaotic energy was shot towards Lin Jie. “Foolish human, leave!”
“F*ck, there’s actually another obstacle right now!” Lin Jie could not help but curse. He was so close to succeeding, but then such a powerful monster appeared right out of thin air.
From the build, skills, and dignified words of that monster, it was obvious that its status was high, so how could Lin Jie possibly take that attack?
No, he had to endure it!
“Clomaros’ Seven Kills, Death Ray Kill!” Lin Jie pointed his Broken Blade, and it was not towards that huge Boss, but—towards the Goddess of Moon!
[Clomaros’ Seven Kills•Death Ray Kill]: Slice through the light in the name of the God of War, fight till death! Designate a target to activate Death Ray Kill and deal 50% damage to the target. In the next two seconds, you can be immune to all damage and control effects besides the designated target. The skill cooldown time is 10 minutes. After you use Death Ray Kill to lock onto a target, your Clomaros’ Seven Kills skills will deal an additional 20% damage and control effect.
Whoosh—
The light seemed to be sliced through in that instant. White light surrounded Lin Jie, like it was silk, enveloping him into something like a silkworm cocoon. The attack by that Giant landed on that cocoon, but no damage could be dealt!
Thud!
Lin Jie’s head banged onto the gemstone. Instantly, a fresh aura of life and gentle moonlight shone onto him.
That illusory Goddess of Moon was smiling as she looked at Lin Jie. She was really a god that was too beautiful to be described by words: Majestic, beautiful, holy, and sublime aura filled the whole place—one could not even dare to look at her!
Although exhaustion could be seen on her face, the dignity of a god was still fully intact. Her finger tapped onto Lin Jie’s forehead gently, and an ethereal voice could be heard. “Young adventurer, I am very thankful for you to have come here. The Star Elves have stolen my power and bound my body, but you can help me escape! Now, please enter the Moonlight Space, I will use the last of my powers to seal the Star Elves’ Keeper and weaken it. If you can defeat it, I will give you astonishing rewards.”
