Online Game: My Decay Drives the Entire Server Crazy

He tore open the scroll.

A blinding golden light erupted from the scroll, illuminating the entire main city. After the golden light faded, a tall figure appeared in the center of the square—a three-meter-tall body covered in golden armor, with six white wings spread behind it, holding a giant sword burning with flames. Its eyes were golden, pupil-less, and exuded a suffocating pressure.

[God-Level NPC: God of Light]

Level: 60

HP: 500,000

Skills: Holy Judgment, Light’s Verdict, Light of Purification, Angel’s Descent, God’s Wrath.

When the players across the server saw the boss’s panel, they were all stunned—

”Five hundred thousand HP? Five skills? This is ten times more ferocious than the Abyssal Lord!”

”It’s over, it’s over, Brother Ye is truly finished this time.”

”Qin Wentian is too ruthless, he even managed to get something like this.”

The God of Light opened its golden eyes, scanned the square, and finally locked onto Lin Ye.

”Are you the target?” Its voice was deep and resonant, echoing through the square like a bell.

Lin Ye looked up at it, a smile still on his lips: ”It’s me. What about it?”

The God of Light raised its giant sword, golden flames burning on the blade: ”Accept the oracle, slay the target—Ye.”

It slashed down with its sword.

The giant sword, carrying a whistling wind and golden flames, slashed toward the top of Lin Ye’s head. The power of this strike was enough to kill any player below level 50 instantly.

”Holy Shield!” Su Qinghan hurriedly cast a shield on Lin Ye.

The giant sword struck the shield, and the shield shattered instantly. Lin Ye’s HP dropped by two-thirds, and he was sent flying, crashing into the statue in the square.

”Brother!” Fatty Wang screamed in terror.

Lin Ye crawled up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes grew even brighter.

”Not bad.” He laughed, ”But that’s about it.”

He raised his hand and applied 100 stacks of Decay Debuff to the God of Light.

[System Prompt: The target [God of Light] is a God-Level NPC, with extremely high resistance. Decay Debuff effect reduced by 50%. Current stacks: 100, dealing 0.5% of the target’s max HP as true damage per second.]

The God of Light’s HP bar dropped by 0.5%, barely noticeable. It remained expressionless and slashed down with its sword again.

Lin Ye dodged the sword and applied another 100 stacks of debuff. 200 stacks, 1% per second. The God of Light’s HP bar began to drop slowly, but the speed was very slow.

”Too slow.” Lin Ye frowned. His debuff only had half the effect on a God-Level NPC; it would take 1000 stacks to deal 5% HP per second, taking 20 seconds to kill it. And he couldn’t take a single hit from the God of Light.

”Need to change tactics.” He thought for a moment and switched the effect of the debuff from ”damage” to ”attribute castration.”

[System Prompt: The target [God of Light] has been afflicted with [Full Dimension Attribute Castration]. Current stacks: 200, all attributes reduced by 10%.]

The God of Light’s attack speed and movement speed were noticeably slower. Its sword speed changed from lightning to a gust of wind; although it was still fast, Lin Ye could now barely dodge it.

”Effective.” Lin Ye’s eyes lit up, and he continued to stack the debuff.

400 stacks. 600 stacks. 800 stacks.

The God of Light’s total attributes were reduced by 40%, and its attack and movement speeds were nearly halved. Its sword could no longer catch up to Lin Ye, and every strike missed.

”You...” The God of Light spoke for the first time, its voice filled with a hint of shock, ”What is this power?”

Lin Ye laughed: ”My Talent. Perpetual Energy Level Decay. Ever heard of it?”

The God of Light fell silent. Of course it had heard of it—that was a forbidden power that had existed since the ancient era, something even the gods feared. It hadn’t expected a human player to actually master such power.

”You win.” The God of Light put away its giant sword and knelt on one knee, ”I concede.”

Players across the server were stunned when they saw this scene—

”world channel”

”Player ’Wocao Wuqing’: Holy crap! The God of Light conceded?! A God-Level NPC conceded?!”

”Player ’Brick-Moving Expert’: Brother Ye beat a God-Level NPC into submission?! This is too ridiculous?!”

”Player ’Invincible Sword God’: It’s not submission, it’s fear. Didn’t you see that the God of Light’s stats were cut in half? If it kept fighting, it would just become a target dummy.”

”Player ’Yes Little Follower’: Brother Ye is awesome! Even a God-Level NPC is afraid of you!”
