The rock dragon was sent flying and Adrian managed to deal damage equal to 5% of its current health. The damage might not be much but it was greatly helpful in this situation. The more health that they could diminish in a short amount of time then the higher their chances of succeeding. Adrian did not check his skill yet as he rushed to Sirius’ location.

Monster: Calcite Rock Dragon (Awakened)

Health: (25.8% out of 100%)

Status: Category II Toxicity, Weakened (20%), Berserk, Curse of Infestation

“The decrease in health is still too slow.” Mariposa stated.

“Everyone! We will now focus on attacking the boss monster. Focus all your resources on damage. Healers will focus on healing the tanks that will soak the damage while those who can deal damage will burst the boss. We will lose in a test of patience with the boss.” Mariposa commanded while activating a skill.

“Hive Mind.” Mariposa stated.

A mark appeared on Mariposa’s and it connected to all her soulbounds including the giant royal guard bees that was summoned by the giant queen bee. If anyone were to see what she was seeing then it could be described as multiple field of visions and thoughts. Thankfully, insects are simple minded creatures so she does not overlord her brain capacity.

The Hive Mind skill is a special skill that is given to an Insectomancer when they reach level 100. It allows them to command their soulbounds or any insect that they summoned without verbally issuing the command. She moved the royal guard bees to attack the rock dragon.

Now that she was personally commanding them, the giant royal guard bees were moving much more different than before. She was also using the giant queen bee to buff the royal guard bees so that they deal more damage. A flurry of attacks would be dealt to the rock dragon that just emerged from the crater that formed when he was sent crashing down.

While the other players were bombarding the rock dragon, Adrian tried reviving Sirius using his skill Rewind. Adrian was supposed to do that but Kanlaon spoke to the former using their soul link.

“Master, big brother said not to revive him. He already felt the backlash of his skill so he will not be able to be useful to this battle.” Kanlaon told him.

Adrian did not cast the skill and replied with, “Okay. I understand. Where are you right now?”

“I am currently surfacing. The lava lake is much deeper than I anticipated. I also brought something cool as a souvenir. It is very shiny.” Kanlaon replied.

Adrian then composed himself as it was not ideal to charge recklessly anymore. He did not want not expose his revive skill to others. That skill will definitely invoke chaos if the members of top guilds know about it. A revive skill was too much of an allure for any professional gamer.

Adrian needed to mold his Vortex skill somehow in order for it to only damage the rock dragon. In order to do that he needed to control the small exploding star that he generates using the skill. The last time he practiced that, he was swallowed instead and now he knows what his enemies that were sucked inside the black hole feels like.

“Anyways, hurry up and surface Kanlaon. Saena help the tanks. I will fight the rock dragon with all I have.” Adrian stated using his soul link.

“I should not hold back on the skills that I already used in the siege. Plus, that freaking rock dragon is a monster that I alone could not defeat. The other members are doing a fine job reducing its health. The rock dragon looks irritated though so it might release another skill.” Adrian muttered to himself.

The health of the rock dragon suddenly plummeted below 20%. Adrian who was running towards it was suddenly blown away because a shockwave is once again generated by the rock dragon.

“You mere insects are giving me a harder time to crush you like the bugs you are. You might have escaped my attack earlier but now will be different.” The rock dragon shouted.

The white armor in his arms suddenly morphed into two thick sharp white claws. The rock dragon decided that pulverizing the intruders was far lenient of a punishment. He wanted to skewer then using his very own claws made of hard crystal.

The rock dragon was about to charge at a tank player that used its taunt skill at it. But it suddenly felt sluggish for a second. Adrian is then accelerating towards the rock dragon using his Chrono Shift. He even further boosted it by using Quantum Repulse to increase the force pushing him from behind.

It did not take long for Adrian to reach the rock dragon’s body and he immediately punched its body. The force was adequate but only enough to knock the rock dragon back by an inch. The rock dragon was about to retaliate but Adrian used Quantum Cascade earlier on and set himself as a target with Saena as the epicenter.

Adrian was pulled towards Saena and he timely evaded the rock dragon’s sudden swipe. It might consume lots of mana but being safe from damage was better than getting damaged heavily. The other raid members did not let go of this opportunity and fired of attacks at the rock dragon once again.

Adrian once again chugged mana potions to restore his mana so that he could use skills. He once again charged at the rock dragon as it was being distracted. He did not do what he did earlier but instead used his new skill to appear behind the rock dragon.

Mana Cost: None

Cooldown: None

Soul Essence Cost: Dependent on the user

Nether Energy Cost: Dependent on the user

Restriction: An active charge of Blink must be consumed for this skill to be used.

Currently, Adrian only had ten soul essences and fifty nether energy so it would not be as powerful as before. Still, the attack did quite a lot of damage and decreased the health of the rock dragon by 1.5%. The rock dragon turned its head to meet the attack head on so the small increase in damage is probably the strike on its face.

The raid party was not pouring all their resources into damage which decreased the health of the rock dragon little by little. It did not take long for the rock dragon’s health to drop to the 10% mark. The raid party members can see their success just around the corner but it might have been too early to be happy.

The rock dragon once again produced a roar and its body started shining once more. Its green glowing eyes became red with anger. Adrian checked the status of the rock dragon just to be sure what was happening.

“It actually enhanced its berserk mode! This is a first that have heard of this. Even the forums have no information on a berserk boss increasing its Berserk to Berserk II. Does this mean that its stats are tripled?” Adrian mumbled.

The rock dragon’s armor shined brightly and it even grew a spike ball tail that is similar to its tail in its dragon form. Adrian saw this and immediately took out his One Chance Talisman that could block deadly damage. Adrian did not blink when using this talisman as he saw the carnage that the rock dragon did before his very eyes. 𝒍𝒊𝙗𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅.𝓬𝒐𝓶

The rock dragon could now easily tear apart the giant royal guard bees and it even managed to kill another tank player. It was clear as day that the boss became much more powerful than before and he did not want to expose his revival skill so the epic talisman is the best option.

A golden light enveloped Adrian before he jumped towards the rock dragon. The rock dragon was no longer responding to the taunts of the remaining tanks but it could still deflect skill shots that were fired towards it. The only thing that could damage it now was close combat attacks but those close to it suffered being torn apart.

Suddenly, a dragon head surface from the lava and roared. Kanlaon was now ready to join the battle and immediately used its breath attack towards the rock dragon. The rock dragon did not bother evading and the others thought they could now win but a dome made of white crystal emerged from the ground to shield the rock dragon from the attack.

The raid members thought that Kanlaon’s attack dealt heavy damage to the rock dragon but they suddenly saw a white crystal dome when Kanlaon’s attack died down. The dome then cracked and the rock dragon continued its slaughter. They thought that hope was lost but a black, gray and white mist suddenly covered the battlefield.

“Nether Domain” Adrian muttered.
