“Hahaha. How do you feel, insects? Do you regret what you did?” Every time a player was killed, the boss would laugh crazily. Right then, Jiang Fei’s group was left with only himself and seven other Clerics. The other players had all been eliminated.
“Be careful of the circle of flames! Don’t worry about anything else. It all depends on you guys now!” Jiang Fei shouted at the Clerics behind him. The boss had less than 30% Health Points. It was about to enter the state of Frenzy.
“Come on! Let’s see who will die!” Jiang Fei exclaimed.
“Darned insects! You infuriate me!” As its Health Points reached 20%, the Dragon of the Broken Wing entered the Frenzy state.
In an instant, a golden flame appeared around its body. Simultaneously, it stopped using group skills. Instead, it focused on attacking the single target before it.
-72,145!
“Clerics! Painful Suppression!” Jiang Fei shouted loudly.
After entering the Frenzy state, the Dragon of the Broken Wing’s normal attack was able to deal 70,000 damage to Jiang Fei. If it used Saber Lash now, Jiang Fei would surely be killed.
“Got it!” A Cleric immediately cast the spell on Jiang Fei.
Painful Suppression was akin to a damage barrier. It allowed players to receive 50% less damage. In fact, it was a forceful damage reduction that could not be ignored unless the attacker had a special attack attribute.
After obtaining Painful Suppression, Jiang Fei could relax somewhat. The boss’ normal attacks were now dealing less damage to him. Although its Attack Speed increased by 50% and it put a lot of pressure on Jiang Fei and his Cauldron of Spirit, there were still a number of Clerics behind Jiang Fei. Therefore, Jiang Fei did not have to worry so much about recovering his Health Points.
However, Jiang Fei was still in a grave situation. A Cleric’s Painful Suppression only lasted five seconds. With seven of the Clerics, he could only have up to half a minute’s worth of the effect. That meant if Jiang Fei did not kill the boss in half a minute, the boss would end his life instead.
It was a classic state of rushing a battle. The final victory belonged to the party with the highest Attack Power. However, Jiang Fei was the only attacker left in his group. He needed to rely on his Attack Speed to kill the boss before he was killed instead.
“Screw you!” Jiang Fei suddenly recalled that he still had a trump card in his hands. Since the guild could not possibly defeat this dungeon without him, there was no point in holding back.
As he thought of this, Jiang Fei immediately retrieved his Dragon’s Bane and fired it at the boss.
When the boss’ Health Points had reached 20%, it already had less than 20,000,000 Health Points. Therefore, there was no way it could survive an attack from the Dragon’s Bane. Jiang Fei had forgotten to use it earlier because he wanted to test if Lady Casanova and the rest could handle the boss on their own.
“Ding! You have eliminated the Dragon of the Broken Wing, Roweiss! Obtained 12,000,000 Experience points. Obtained 50 gold coins!”
A system notification could be heard as the first boss in the Golden Dragon Nest dungeon had been killed. However, as the Experience points were split amongst a hundred players, there was not much to go around. Regardless, it was still a significant amount of Experience points.
“Damn! We actually beat it…”
“Yeah! Guild master, you’re amazing!”
“Long live our guild master!”
“Brother Fei, you are invincible!”
…
As the boss fell to the ground, the players started cheering loudly in the group channel. After all, the boss was an Overlord. It was a huge achievement for the group as a whole despite Jiang Fei’s previous grand achievement of killing a Celestial being.
“Clerics, please save us!”
“Help me, Cleric! It’s so cold here on the ground!”
…
After celebrating, the dead players started calling out for help so that they could be resurrected.
“Clerics, recover your mana and save the dead players!” Jiang Fei said and sighed in relief. At the same time, he picked up his Dragon’s Bane and put it away.
After about ten minutes, all the players had been resurrected. As the players looked at the boss’ corpse, their eyes glimmered. Unlike Jiang Fei who had already killed a Celestial being, this Overlord was the strongest monster these players had ever seen. Had their guild master not been around, they would not have dared to attempt the suicide mission of killing it on their own.
After all, an Overlord monster was too terrifying for most players. From the way the players were killed off earlier, they were definitely no match for this boss which lacked basic intelligence. If the Overlord was a member of the opposing faction, it would not even be affected by Taunt or the aggro system. These players would definitely be killed off one by one as if it were a game of cat-and-mouse.
“Guild master, let’s see what it dropped!” Lady Casanova said as she laughed.
“Yeah, come on! I can’t wait!” Little Rain called out.
“You have already used up all of your guild contribution points. It would not matter to you whatever the boss dropped…” Cutie Pie said sarcastically when she saw how excited Little Rain appeared.
“It doesn’t mean I can’t look at it…” Little Rain rolled his eyes.
“Alright! Let’s find out what this boss dropped!” Jiang Fei started feeling hopeful as he saw how excited the other players were.
As Jiang Fei flipped the corpse over, a black beam appeared.
“Damn! What is this thing?” Everyone including Jiang Fei was stunned. They had never seen an equipment that glowed with a black light.
“This is…” Jiang Fei seemed even more surprised when he saw the item’s attributes.
“Guild master, what is it?” The other players asked curiously when they saw Jiang Fei’s facial expression.
“Why would such a thing exist…” Jiang Fei murmured as he sent the item’s attributes to the rest of the players.
