Chapter 69: Mining a Block? You've Already Cleared the Twilight Forest?
Foreign viewers expressed deep regret that Galen Yu hadn't fallen to his death.
But seeing his smile once again, along with the Mace in his hand...
they seemed to realize what was coming next.
"No way, not again?"
"Alpha Yeti: I'm warning you, don't come any closer!"
"Damn, why do I feel like Galen Yu has more presence than the boss?"
"Just look at the two of them standing there. Who looks more like the boss?"
"I'm seriously done. Why is the Mace so strong? Can they nerf it already?"
"How are you supposed to fight a stat monster? This is the final boss; I hope the Alpha Yeti can put up a fight!"
"I'm starting a Boss Protection Association. Let's cherish the bosses and condemn Galen Yu together!"
"Where did this idiot come from? Protecting a boss? Why don't we throw you into a Hydra nest first? You can protect them there!"
"With that little bit of meat on him, he wouldn't even be enough to pick a Hydra's teeth."
"A protection association? Go condemn your mother! I'm truly witnessing a whole new species of moron today!"
A perfectly ordinary, average player versus a massive boss on the ice plains with countless minions and terrifying, diverse attacks.
When the battle begins, who will emerge victorious?
The answer was blindingly obvious.
[SYSTEM: WITHIN THE PRIMITIVE CAVE SOCIETIES OF YETIS, THERE IS ALWAYS ONE POWERFUL BEING THAT BECOMES THE LEADER.]
[SYSTEM: YETIS ARE CONSTANTLY ENGAGED IN MEANINGLESS STRUGGLES FOR THIS MEANINGLESS POSITION.]
[SYSTEM: ENTERED HOSTILE MICRO-CHUNK: YETI LAIR]
[SYSTEM: ALPHA YETI]
Spotting Galen Yu, the intruder, the Alpha Yeti let out a thunderous roar.
It spat out a flurry of ice bombs, hurling them toward him.
The bombs dealt continuous damage while inflicting a freezing effect, as clearly shown by the small yetis nearby that had been frozen into ice sculptures.
Having expected this, Galen Yu skated across the ice to dodge the attack, closing the distance to the Alpha Yeti.
The ice severely restricted player movement.
Once he reached the Alpha Yeti, the boss stopped its barrage as icy snowflakes began to swirl around it.
A charging state! It was about to unleash its ultimate move!
The disappointed audience widened their eyes again, their gazes filled with hope that an effective move against Galen Yu would finally appear.
Ice Rampage—the signature skill of the Alpha Yeti.
This massive creature, born from pointless infighting, had learned a bit of frost magic over its long life of combat.
It could continuously swing its arms to damage and knock back nearby enemies while hurling ice bombs in every direction.
It looked incredibly powerful; in such a confined lair, it seemed impossible to avoid getting hit.
So, Galen Yu placed a bucket of water at its feet to let it cool down.
"Go, big yeti! Bring Galen Yu to justice!"
"You emerged from so many yetis; you must be the strongest!"
"The ultimate move is coming! Galen—wait, why is the boss crying?"
"Huh? You're the Alpha Yeti! A single bucket of water made you cry?"
"Are you sure this thing is a boss?"
Its ultimate move interrupted by the flow of water, the attack-less Alpha Yeti sat on the ground, water droplets continuously splashing from it.
It looked so majestic and imposing, and it could even use frost magic.
Yet it was defeated by a single bucket of water?
Against a boss that can't attack, the rest was easy.
Mace, Peacock Feather Fan—the "strike from the heavens" playstyle.
Three swings later, the battle was over. It dropped Alpha Yeti Fur, Ice Bombs, and the Alpha Yeti Trophy.
[SYSTEM: ALPHA YETI FUR]
[SYSTEM: BY OBTAINING THE ALPHA YETI FUR, YOU WILL BE IMMUNE TO THE SNOW QUEEN'S MAGICAL FREEZING ATOP THE GLACIER.]
He turned the Alpha fur into armor, swapping out his Fiery set to put it on.
As two of the strongest armor sets in the Twilight Forest, someone had once calculated that mixing the pieces was far more effective than wearing a single full set.
One could enjoy the burning effect from a single piece of Fiery armor while also benefiting from the freezing effect granted by the Yeti gear.
Giving enemies a taste of a double hell of ice and fire.
"The final enemy, the Snow Queen!"
Since he was already in the Snowy Forest, Galen Yu didn't plan to linger; he would clear it all in one go.
Returning to the glacier, he was indeed no longer affected by the freezing slowness.
At this moment, some viewers were still making their final struggle.
"Baka! Our Oakmoor hasn't even cleared the Hydra yet! How can you be fighting the final boss already?"
"No way! The first-clear reward must go to our Mark!"
"It's a pity the process for the Katana is so tedious, otherwise Kapil would have been the one to reach this step!"
"Don't panic everyone, it's not over yet! Anything is possible!"
"Think about it—the Yeti Fur is just to break the freeze. That means the Yeti isn't even worthy of being in the same league as the Snow Queen!"
"Exactly! As the final boss, she must have terrifying strength, far beyond what an ordinary person can handle!"
"She's a master of ice magic who rules over an entire glacier! How could she be easily defeated?"
"We still have a chance!"
He officially entered the glacier, taking in the scene of heavy falling snow.
There were no other creatures here, only ice, flying snow, and the exclusive bipedal birds—penguins!
Everyone knew that creatures like penguins lived in harsh environments and only existed in specific glacial regions.
They had no attack power and were cute and adorable, making them excellent pets.
Seeing this, the viewers became even more convinced.
The Snow Queen's strength must be horrific; Galen Yu would find her impossible to conquer!
Looking back at the previous seven bosses, none were like the Snow Queen.
She possessed a massive castle standing alone on the perennial glacier, and most importantly—there were no zombies!
Even those pervasive Crisis Zombies that spawned everywhere feared the cold and dared not step into this forbidden zone!
How could such a boss be weak?
As he approached the Aurora Palace, a notification sounded.
[SYSTEM: THE AMBITIOUS SNOW QUEEN IS THE MOST DANGEROUS DICTATOR IN THIS FOREST.]
[SYSTEM: SHE HAS SEALED HERSELF ATOP THE GLACIER WITHIN THE FORBIDDEN CHAMBER ON THE TOP FLOOR OF THE AURORA PALACE, ATTEMPTING TO ISOLATE HERSELF FROM ALL EXTERNAL THREATS.]
[SYSTEM: ENTERED HOSTILE MICRO-CHUNK: AURORA PALACE!]
Within the magnificent Aurora Palace, lined with solid ice.
At the very peak, inside the ice chamber filled with ancient chill, the Snow Queen waited to grant any uninvited guest eternal entombment in ice!
Even the introduction was so unique; didn't that prove everything?
Taking a deep breath, Galen Yu also prepared himself mentally.
Unlike the previous bosses, the Snow Queen was indeed very strong. For instance, inside the Aurora Palace...
There were golems, Ice Crystals, and Snow Guardians.
Controlled by the Snow Queen, they patrolled the palace with malicious intent toward intruders, never letting players walk away with their treasures easily.
The Snow Queen had once conquered many realms. For example, the controlled Snow Guardians were essentially weakened versions of Phantom Knights.
They had variants wearing Ironwood, Steeleaf, Knightly, and Arctic gear, and they even possessed invisibility.
If they carried Knightmetal Swords, that armor-ignoring true damage would undoubtedly be a nightmare for many players!
Bringing his condition to its peak, Galen Yu ate a Golden Apple he had previously looted from a treasure chest.
He switched to the Mazebreaker and began swinging to mine.
He had only just mined the first Aurora Block.
[SYSTEM: CONGRATULATIONS TO GALEN YU OF THE NINE PROVINCES FOR DEFEATING THE SNOW QUEEN AND BECOMING THE FIRST PLAYER TO CLEAR THE TWILIGHT FOREST!]
Galen Yu: "????"
