"I, Ordas, am the one true God of Frost and Snow, Ruler of the Earth. Mortals, shudder before me!"
The boss of Frost Labyrinth, Ordas, raised his Staff up high. Many bolts of ice and frost descended from the sky, covering the earth.
By then, Li Yi had cleared away about a dozen waves of weak monsters. He could already see the madman Ordas yelling and roaring away over there.
He was not about to go over there just yet, because there were two Elite-Level Frost Giants guarding the path ahead.
He had to defeat the two Frost Giants before he could challenge Ordas.
The Level 15 Frost Giants were Elite-Level monsters with rather formidable ATK. When they went berserk, even a Level 15 Armored Warrior wearing a full Frost Equipment Set could not take two hits from it. Its only weakness was that it was vulnerable against magic attacks.
Li Yi tried to shoot an arrow at it, but it only took 1HP from the Frost Giant.
He did not have to bother sending Blue Pig up either. Although it was Level 10 now, it still would not be able to hang in there without a healer-class by its side to replenish its HP.
Li Yi continued to shoot at a leisurely pace, slowly pulling the Frost Giants, bit by bit.
In his previous life, he had farmed the Frost Labyrinth dungeon so many times that it made him want to puke. It was safe to say that he was intimately familiar with everything inside this dungeon, and that was also the reason why he dared to try and solo this place.
Li Yi finally got the attention of the Frost Giants, and the two blockheads roared as they rushed at him.
The Frost Giants were just too large. When they ran, even the ground around them would shake. If Li Yi was even grazed by them, he would surely die in an instant.
Li Yi called back Old Pig, turned around, and suddenly began to run.
He did not run particularly fast. Instead, he ran at the perfect pace, leading the two Frost Giants on a wild goose chase around the forest.
This method looked simple, but when you actually got around to performing it, it was the furthest thing from easy.
He could not run too fast, or else he would leave the battle. At the same time, he could not run too slowly, otherwise the slightest touch would kill him. The most difficult part was that he also had to turn around occasionally and shoot his arrows, because if their aggro meter was not high enough, the blockheads would give up on chasing him, and run back to their stations on their own.
Frost Labyrinth was only a Level 10 dungeon, but even in the past life, less than 20 people in the whole game could pull aggro like this.
Li Yi ran and stopped in intervals, constantly pulling them, and finally managed to lead the blockheads to his destination.
The Elf Lake in Aegean Forest.
The surface of the lake had already frozen over. It was fine when Li Yi ran across it, but when the Frost Giants ran onto the surface of the lake, their steps crashed through the ice and they fell in…
"Roar--"
"Roar--"
After the Frost Giants fell in, they could not get back out.
"Done!"
Li Yi released a long breath. Without even a glance at Frost Giant, he ran back as fast as he could so that he could challenge Ordas.
This bug he used to trap the Frost Giants would not last too long, otherwise they would simply respawn beside Ordas once more.
"Arethena, Arethena, do you see this? Do you see it? Everyone is bowing down to me, they are… calling my name… Our… God… Ordas…"
Ordas raised his Staff up high, murmuring to himself with an expression of intoxication.
"Old Pig, go!"
Old Pig snorted once and ran up to Ordas, immediately using its Enhanced Tackle.

"Who's there? Who dares to raise their hand against the great God?" Ordas lowered his head and saw the Mutated Small Wild Boar. He immediately flew into a rage, raising his Staff up high, and summoning forth a Frost Arrow.
[−0]
It was immune!
Old Pig was completely unharmed.
Li Yi's arrow reached Ordas.
[−18]
[−39]
[−12]
Why did Li Yi spend a day and a half catching a Mutated Small Wild Boar? What was his aim? Was it not precisely for this moment?
The Mutated Small Wild Boar was a rare Ice Attribute monster, which meant that it was naturally immune to ice attribute attacks. On the other hand, while Ordas' attacks were OP, when he went up against the Mutated Small Wild Boar that was immune to ice attribute attacks, he instantly became a piece of worthless trash.
Enhanced Tackle, Tear. The Mutated Small Wild Boar's ATK may not be much, but its ability to gain aggro was relatively impressive. It caught all of Ordas' attention, allowing its master Li Yi to attack as he pleased.
Ordas had 110,000 HP, so it would not be that easy for even an entire party to defeat him unless they were using this method.
Now, this made things a lot easier…
"Flurry of Dancing Snow!"
When Li Yi knocked off half of Ordas' HP, Ordas' body slowly floated out. As he barked once in a deep voice, countless Frost Arrows fell from the sky.
This was an AoE attack, so be it long- or short-range fighters, they would all be in his attacking range.
Li Yi's HP fell continuously. He had to drink a Red Potion in order to hang in there.
"No, this can't be real, it can't be real. How can a mortal… injure me?"
Ordas held his head, screaming. Li Yi drew his bow and let loose the arrow.
"This… This can't be… Arethena…"
Four hours later, Ordas grasped at his heart in immense agony and collapsed to the ground.
"I finally settled it…" Li Yi wiped away his sweat.
His body shone with a golden light. He had leveled up once.
System Notification: [Congratulations, you have achieved the first kill of Wild Boar King Boss. Announce name to general public?]
Li Yi chose [No], and the spam of red words began once more.
Floating red words covered the whole scene!
[Player ** has achieved the first kill of Level 15 Boss, Wild Boar King. Recorded in Pantheon Hall of Fame.]
[Player ** has achieved the first kill of Level 15 Boss, Wild Boar King. System reward 200 Gold Coins obtained!]
[Player ** has achieved the first kill of Level 15 Boss, Wild Boar King. System reward 500 points Reputation Value with various major cities obtained!]
[Player ** has achieved the first kill of Level 15 Boss, Wild Boar King. System reward 20000 EXP obtained!]
[Player ** is the first in the server to clear the Frost Labyrinth Instance Dungeon. Reward 1 Skill Point, special title King of Frost obtained.]
[Congratulations, you have reached Level 12.]
[Your Reputation Value with various major cities has reached 1000 points. The attitude of NPCs in various major cities toward you has changed from Friendly to Intimate.]
[By clearing the Normal Frost Labyrinth Instance Dungeon, you have earned the right to enter Hero Mode.]
The spam of red words from the system repeated more than twenty times. All the players in the area were dumbfounded, but forget that, even Li Yi himself was getting slightly excited.
There was a ton of system rewards, but he was only happy with the Skill Point.
That was a precious Skill Point, the type you get only one of every time you level up. In terms of importance, it was not too far away from a peak-level equipment, because you only had a chance of earning them when you were the first to clear a dungeon, or when you received an extremely high-difficulty quest.
In the previous life, when Li Yi entered King of Pantheon, the game had already been running for more than a year. He could not manage even one first kill, and although he had been lucky enough to obtain a few Skill Points, he was still quite a ways behind some super players.
'This time, is it my turn to leave you guys in the dust?'
Looking at Ordas' corpse, Li Yi rubbed his hands together twice, forcefully. He walked up, reached out his hand, and looted the body.
Although he was an infamous Trash Hand in the past life, this boss' corpse here was a first kill, so he should probably… get something good, right?
Li Yi reached out his hand and ran it down Ordas' body several times. His expression changed instantly…
[3 Silver Coins obtained…]
[Ice Crystal Necklace obtained (quest item, guaranteed drop)]
[Frost Pearl x1 obtained…]
[Frost Arrow Rare Book obtained…]
