Chapter 74 Chapter73-Beheading with a Single Sword
Due to the massive level gap, the members of the Blue Sea Guild couldn't even detect the true attribute information of Queen Medusa.
All the results were question marks.
Blue Sea was in a state of chaos, instinctively turning to look at John.
Only after seeing John's calm demeanor did he somewhat relax.
"Humans, why have you trespassed on Queen Medusa's territory?" Medusa's alluring voice rang out again.
But this time, as she hadn't applied the Soul Rip effect, it didn't have much impact on everyone's mental state.
Still, everyone's eyes couldn't help but steal glances at Medusa's tempting body.
It was normal.
After all, which man could resist such a naked beauty?
For a moment, everyone praised the game "Godslayer" in their hearts.
It was like welfare for the male players!
Under everyone's heated gaze, Medusa didn't show any signs of shyness.
As an Undead Lord, she couldn't understand humans' concepts about sexuality.
The reason for maintaining a human form was merely for hunting.
"How is it? Does she look tempting? Can't you help but want to pounce on her?"
John turned to Blue Sea and jokingly asked in a low voice.
Blue Sea nodded seriously, "Of course, I can't believe that you have no desire for such a naked beauty."
John slightly smiled, "My sexual orientation is very normal. Of course, I can't be without reaction. But I suggest you not be too engrossed. After all, this is just a game. Also, what you see now isn't the real Medusa."
Blue Sea was taken aback, asking subconsciously, "What do you mean?"
John rolled his eyes and replied irritably, "She's a Lord of the Abyss, an undead boss. You can't really think she looks exactly like a human woman, right?"
After that, John turned to Medusa, "How about it, isn't it time to show your real face? With your current look, there isn't any advantage in fighting."
The Queen Medusa on the altar became more curious about John.
Her vertical, snake-like pupils fixated on John, "Human, who are you really? How do you know me so well?"
John shrugged, stretching out his slender right hand.
Energy instantly gathered in his hand, coalescing into a long sword.
"Divine Blade..."
Seemingly perceiving the threat of the Divine Blade, Queen Medusa finally showed a change.
A dazzling, colorful mist surged from the altar, instantly enveloping Medusa's enchanting body.
The mist gradually spread, until it shrouded the entire altar.
Unable to see Medusa's naked figure anymore, everyone felt a twinge of regret.
But then, a terrifying hiss echoed.
The next second, the colorful mist slowly dissipated, revealing a monstrous serpent tens of meters long on the altar.
Its body coiled around the altar, with its head held high.
What was more terrifying was that the face of the serpent was that of a beautiful woman.
However, the previously flowing long hair had all turned into hissing small snakes.
"Everyone, close your eyes, don't look directly at her!" John ordered sternly, simultaneously waving his hand to cast a simple illumination spell.
The blinding white light caused everyone to instinctively close their eyes.
With his eyes shut and tears pricking his eyes, Blue Sea quickly asked, "Why can't we look directly at the boss?"
John calmly replied, "Remember the Eyes of Medusa on the cave walls after we entered? That's Medusa's inherent ability. Once she returns to her original form, the Eyes of Medusa will be activated. Anyone looking directly at Medusa will be turned into stone."
John paused before continuing, "It's not like those eyes in the mural. If you had looked directly at Medusa, by now, all of you would've respawned at the fountain!"
On hearing this, Blue Sea shivered with fear.
Then, another problem struck him, "But if we all close our eyes, how are we supposed to fight the boss in front of us?"
John was momentarily speechless.
Big brother, you can't seriously think that keeping your eyes open will help you defeat a level 200 Lord-level boss, right?
"I'll handle Medusa. You guys aren't ready to fight her at your current levels. Step back."
On hearing this, Blue Sea's expression turned a bit sour.
As the guild leader of a top 10 global guild, he had his pride.
John's blunt words somewhat hurt his ego.
However, he knew John was telling the truth.
His team's average level wasn't even 50.
Against a level 200 Lord-level boss, they had no chance of winning.
They couldn't even break through Medusa's defense.
Reluctantly, Blue Sea led his team to retreat to the edge of the stone door.
After his companions had retreated, John calmly raised his head.
He actually looked directly into Medusa's eyes, curiosity filling his gaze.
So, the legendary Queen Medusa looked like this in her original form.
"Human, you really are special. Why doesn't my ability affect you?" The incredible snake with a woman's face slowly coiled around the altar, moving slowly. Finally, she bent down to stare face-to-face with John, seeming quite surprised that John wasn't turned into stone.
John smiled slightly, "I don't know, I've always been a bit of an oddball. Quite a few control effects don't work on me."
Unexpectedly, Queen Medusa slowly shook her head, "That's not right. I can feel that my ability has been activated... strange..."
"Human, while I still have no interest in hunting, state your purpose. Why have you intruded my territory?" Medusa demanded.
John tilted his head slightly, replying nonchalantly, "We came here for something from you."
"What is it?"
"A key," John continued, "You may remember a human adventurer you once hunted, named Ethan. Among his possessions was a key, which I believe you claimed as your trophy."
Medusa pondered for a moment, then nodded. contemporary romance
She opened her mouth and gently spat out a finely-crafted golden key.
"You mean this? I vaguely remember that human, a competent mage. Pity that he was so weak in front of the magnificent Queen Medusa. Why should I give you what is now my trophy?"
John arched an eyebrow, a grin spreading across his face. "Did you think I came here to negotiate?"
This remark instantly infuriated Medusa.
"Prepare to be sacrificed to the abyss, you damned human!" She roared, rearing up and readying herself for attack.
[Warning, you have been targeted by a Lord-level boss! Warning, you have been targeted by a Lord-level boss!]
Despite the sharp warning sounds of the system, John remained unfazed, his smile unchanged. "Are you sure you want to do this? With your intellect, you shouldn't make such a foolish move."
Even though John's voice was calm, the underlying threat was clear.
This further infuriated Medusa, who was of higher intelligence.
She opened her mouth and swiftly spat out a multi-colored poisonous dart, which darted towards John like a lightning bolt.
Simultaneously, Medusa's gigantic body started moving, her tail sweeping in the air like a whip towards John.
The attack from a level 200 Lord-level boss was quite formidable.
The entire space shook violently, with rocks from the ceiling falling due to the tremors.
Despite having their eyes closed, Blue Sea and his guild members were frightened by Medusa's roar.
That's a huge commotion.
Blue Sea was shocked, and he was also worried about John.
Can he really handle such a terrifying boss on his own?
Not that he doubted John's power, but he didn't expect Medusa's attack to be this powerful.
Blue Sea speculated that if they were to face this level of attack, they wouldn't be able to survive even one round.
Back at the battlefield, John stared at the fast-approaching poisonous dart without any intention of dodging it.
He wasn't even bothered by the incoming tail.
He sighed softly, "Already pregnant and still courting death… Well, I guess I'll just have to oblige."
Just as the dart and tail were about to hit him, John's body flickered and he disappeared from the spot.
The dart hit the ground, corroding a large hole instantly.
The tail swiped through empty air, leaving Medusa surprised.
She then began scanning the surroundings warily, looking for John.
But the next moment, a tremor rippled through the air behind her, revealing John's voice.
The Divine Blade materialized once more, and from John's body, devoid of any energy fluctuations, a terrifying aura as vast as a sea of smoke suddenly erupted.
"This is... The Devil's aura..."
Medusa instantly sensed the energy far surpassing her rank, her captivating vertical pupils filled with horror.
Before she could finish her exclamation, John had already swung his sword.
As casually as one would chop vegetables, he beheaded Medusa in one fell swoop.
Queen Medusa's beguiling voice abruptly ended!
