Omega Summoner

[You have entered the hidden dungeon Calcite Bedrock.]

[Cersei invited you to the Evergreen Raid party. Do you wish to accept? Yes or No?]

[You have accepted the party invitation. Equal experience distribution has been set for the party.]

“A hidden dungeon! This must be a bonus dungeon and that token that looked like a rock must be a drop from the Stone Golem during the extreme cycle. This means that I no longer need to pay since this dungeon is a separate entity from Spiral Peak.” Adrian thought as there was not a system notification that prompted him to pay a fine of five gold.

Adrian did not even need to ask as he only focused on the path before him. Sirius and Saena were following beside him. Sirius had his battle ready stance while Saena had an aloof expression. Kanlaon was flying above them and since he was in his soul form, he could pass through the stalactites but his mana was consumed doing so.

They marched until they are in a location where boulders that are five feet in height was seen.

“Stop and get ready for battle.” Mariposa stated.

The members of the raid that were above level 100 readied their battle stance while the eight below level 100 was doubtful. Cersei was already chanting something and Adrian already summoned his bow Psyche Armament. Sirius already told him that enemies are near through their soul link.

It seems that Sirius could now speak using their soul link but he could still not utter words.

“What should I do master? Should I bombard them?” Kanlaon asked.

“Nope. You will only move when we are in real danger. It seems we could easily handle it anyways.” Adrian replied.

Adrian then inspected the monsters that were camouflaged as rocks.

Monster: Rock Recluse Spider

Level: 105

HP: 1,000,000 / 1,000,000

MP: 100,000 / 100,000 𝙡𝒊𝒃𝓻𝒆𝒂𝓭.𝙘𝓸𝓶

Description: An arachnid species that is said to be part stone and part spider. It lazily sleeps all day but wakes up when intruders set forth in their territory. It is slow but it has high health and tough defense.

“Damage dealers get ready to take down the enemies. Tanks be vigilant and soak up the damage. Healers be ready to cast your recovery spells.” Mariposa stated as she summoned one of her soulbounds which was a large praying mantis.

Adrian also told Sirius to join the attacks. The Rock Recluse Spider only have their backs made of rocks but their underbelly looked soft. Adrian told Sirius to aim for those parts while Saena will support him.

Sirius immediately dove to the shadows and reappeared with only his head and claws on the underbelly of one of the Rock Recluse Spiders that stood up. Sirius then clawed the underbelly to deal damage and also made spikes of shadows to pierce the underbelly of one.

[Your soulbound Sirius has dealt tremendous 21,321 damage to the Rock Recluse Spider due to hitting a weak spot.]

Adrian was a bit disappointed with the damage because if Sirius were to hit weak spots he should at least deal fifty thousand in damage.

“It is the level suppression. It seems to affect them more. I hope my soulbounds reach level 99 in this raid but that is a wish not a reality.” Adrian murmured as he started shooting arrows at the Rock Recluse Spider that the tanks cornered.

“Only use low cooldown skills as the boss for this place is much more difficult.” Mariposa commanded. 𝘭𝒾𝑏𝑟𝑒𝒶𝒹.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Adrian only used arrows made of mana to strike at the Rock Recluse Spiders. The tanks were getting the aggro of the spiders. Two tanks and healers are needed per spider. Since Saena is a healing soulbound, Adrian was assigned to the person with just one healer.

Adrian just poured his arrows towards the Rock Recluse Spider. Sirius was also focusing on the Rock Recluse Spider that Adrian attacked. The two tanks that is in Adrian’s group had an easy time tanking the enemy because of Sirius attacks that would switch its aggro to him.

Sirius will take aggro because of his high damage and then one of the tanks will use a taunting skill to switch aggro to him. Due to this, the Rock Recluse Spider that they are fighting became confused. It seems their current enemy has low intelligence thereby is easily confused.

It took about ten minutes to kill one Rock Recluse Spider. It was easily handled as the spiders do not have a high attack damage. All the Rock Recluse Spider does is ram its body towards its aggressor or spit out small pebbles towards the tanks which they could easily block.

[You have gained experience points from defeating a Rock Recluse Spider.]

Adrian’s group was the first one to finish off one of the spiders. Mariposa’s soulbound which is the giant praying mantis is distracting the other Rock Recluse Spiders so that not all of them would charge towards them. It seems that they are also treating this raid as a training exercise as Mariposa would sometimes correct them when they make a mistake.

Adrian was paired up with a Hydromancer which is also the reason of their fast kill. Elemental advantages still play a part even in the most basic mobs. Since the spiders are mostly made of rocks, they are immediately weakened when water is applied as it softens their hide.

When their bodies becomes softer then it is easier to damage them. Adrian would sneak one or two piercing arrows so that it deals massive damage to the Rock Recluse Spiders. The other teams finished about two minutes after Adrian’s group and the longest being fifteen minutes. Adrian’s Netheros Bane also played a part in weakening the monster as taking 20% of its stats is big.

Adrian’s group moved to another enemy and they did the same strategy. Although repetitive, it was a good way for the members of the raid to grow trust. The tanks that are in Adrian’s group did not even go down below 90% of their health due to Saena’s percentage healing. Coupled with their defense raising skills and Saena’s healing, the tanks in Adrian’s group are almost immortal. This was also akin to the skill of the tanks so Adrian was convinced that this was a professional tank.

It did not take long for the whole group to clear the whole floor of the Rock Recluse Spiders. The time was not that short because of the sheer number of the Rock Recluse Spiders that numbered up to 30. The drops of the enemies were actually just scraps of stone that was chunked from the Rock Recluse Spider’s body. The spiders did not even drop coins just worthless rocks.

“Get ready! The next room is a mini-boss. It is not that powerful compared to these one but it has more attack options. The mini-boss is called the Rock Recluse Spider Queen. Her body is as big as a small hill so be careful getting close to her.” Mariposa warned them as if she already knew the dungeon by heart.

“A mini-boss already. We just finished one layer and a mini-boss is already next. This dungeon is more than meets the eye.
