Thunderous Force!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The moment the Illusion World · Thunder set skill activated, lightning wrapped around Lin Mo's body as if he had become the God of Thunder.
[Ding ~ You have activated the set skill Thunderous Force. During the skill duration, Attack +30%, Defense +15%, Max HP +10%, all equipment affix effects doubled! Killing enemies will trigger Thunder Arrows!]
The next second, Lin Mo raised Illusion World · Thunder's Wrath and locked onto the army of Dark Death Guards rushing toward him from ahead. His eyes turned cold.
Soul Archer ultimate, SSS-rank Annhilation · Storm Arrow Rain!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Arrows poured down from the sky, covering a huge group of enemies ahead.
Under three rounds of arrow rain, huge blood-red damage numbers popped above the Dark Death Guards one after another.
-180678 (Critical)!
-181222 (Critical)!
-181024 (Critical)!
[Ding ~ Killed level 60 monster Dark Death Guard, EXP +280000!]
[Ding ~ Killed level 60 monster Dark Death Guard, EXP +280000!]
In an instant, all of the dozens of full-health level 60 Dark Death Guards inside the arrow rain's range were instantly killed.
A huge area was cleared out in a flash, leaving nothing behind.
Compared to before, the terrifying damage had increased by nearly three times, leaving even Lin Mo shocked.
"This tier 5 Thunder set is actually this overpowered?"
With Thunderous Force active, Lin Mo's attack power increased by 30%, rising from the already absurd 18280 points to an even more shocking 23764 points.
At the same time, equipment affix effects doubled: Physical Damage +50%, Armor Penetration +50%.
The SSS-rank Storm Arrow Rain already came with 40% armor penetration. Combined together, Lin Mo's attack now had a full 90% armor penetration effect. The damage he dealt practically ignored defense entirely and became true damage.
So, same as before, even though Lin Mo's mechanics were bad, nobody could match his hardware strength, gold equipment, SSS skills, gold titles, and everything else. His damage output was completely maxed out.
At the same time, every kill triggered the effect of [Thunder Arrow].
As dozens of Dark Death Guards in the huge area ahead were killed by the arrow rain—
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Dozens of lightning-covered arrows dropped from the sky with piercing thunder force, landing among the charging Dark Death Guards.
-134966 (Critical)!
-138624 (Critical)!
-136697 (Critical)!
For these level 60 Dark Death Guards with only 190,000 HP, one arrow left them nearly dead.
Two arrows killed them.
After dozens of Thunder Arrows fell, another dozen Dark Death Guards were instantly wiped out.
"The strength of this set skill really isn't bad," Lin Mo said with satisfaction.
As for the skill cost, it consumed 100 mana per second. Even with Lin Mo's 15,800 mana, he could only maintain it for two and a half minutes at most.
At first glance, the consumption really was ridiculous.
But in reality, the necklace equipment piece [Illusion World · Thunder Crystal Chain] had an affix effect that reduced skill consumption by 20%.
With Thunderous Force active, the affix effect doubled: 40% reduced skill consumption.
On top of that, Lin Mo also had a gold-quality title, [Resourceful], which reduced skill consumption by another 30%.
Once the two stacked together, Lin Mo's skill consumption was effectively only 30% of normal.
Thunderous Force's original 100 mana per second cost was compressed down to only 30 mana per second.
With that, the consumption meant almost nothing to Lin Mo.
Combined with mana potions, he could keep the set skill running nonstop.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Arrow after arrow shot out, killing one Dark Death Guard after another ahead.
The overwhelming damage made Lin Mo lose all fear toward the endless army of Dark Death Guards charging at him.
Instead, he felt endless excitement.
"Let the storm come even harder."
Under Lin Mo's command, Dark Gold · Strong-Maned Pig also activated the Peerless · Bloodbath set skill [Bloody Battle].
Whoosh!
As blood-red light burst from its body, Strong-Maned Pig charged straight into the monster crowd with its nine-toothed rake.
Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!
A huge group of Dark Death Guards surrounded Strong-Maned Pig, raising their giant swords and launching a furious barrage of attacks at it.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
The attacks looked fierce as hell.
Then came the damage.
-1!
-1!
-1!
-1!
With the support of the full tier 5 gold Bloodbath set, plus the 30% defense increase from the set skill Bloody Battle, Strong-Maned Pig's physical defense reached 28990 points, nearly triple the attack power of these Dark Death Guards.
Their attacks against Strong-Maned Pig right now were like poking an elephant with pig hair.
Before, when Strong-Maned Pig's HP wasn't very high, its talent effect, which reflected damage equal to 1% of its max HP every time it was attacked, was barely noticeable and almost ignored.
But now, with the 15% boost from the set skill Bloody Battle, Strong-Maned Pig's HP had already reached 1,179,900.
The reflected damage had become extremely impressive, so although the Dark Death Guards couldn't hurt Strong-Maned Pig, dealing only forced -1 damage per hit, every time they attacked Strong-Maned Pig, the reflected damage they took was massive.
-11799!
-11799!
-11799!
At the current stage, over 90% of the players in Inferno City only averaged two to three thousand damage output.
Strong-Maned Pig didn't even need to move. Just from reflected damage while being attacked, it could deal four or five times the damage of ordinary players.
Same as before.
Like its master, Strong-Maned Pig's mechanics were also terrible.
But its hardware was maxed out, and its strength was explosive.
So, with Strong-Maned Pig tanking at the front, Lin Mo unleashed full firepower from the back.
Ice Snow · Extreme Cold Grip!
Heaven Burning · Scorching Wildfire!
Heaven Execution · Seven Star Rapid Shot!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

-134966 (Thunder Arrow)!
How could the weak bodies of these mere level 60 mobs possibly withstand such a violent storm of attacks?
Not long after, the several hundred Dark Death Guards blocking the palace entrance were completely wiped out.
In the blink of an eye, only the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon remained.
Although during this time the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon had recovered from 30% HP to over 50% through auto regeneration, and there were only three minutes left in the dungeon challenge, Lin Mo was now filled with confidence.
"It's time to end this."
A cold light flashed through Lin Mo's eyes.
After waiting for the skill cooldown to finish, the next second, Lin Mo locked onto the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon flying low in the air, currently charging up dragon flames.
He unleashed an SSS-rank skill combo—
Ice Snow · Extreme Cold Grip!
Heaven Burning · Scorching Wildfire!
Heaven Execution · Seven Star Rapid Shot!
At once, one powerful arrow after another, carrying force like they could pierce heaven and earth, swallowed the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon.
