Chapter 237: First Killing of Son of Darkness
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
[Son of Darkness] (BOSS)
Level 30
Health Points: 220,000
Attack: 819-1,545
Defense: 420
Additional Effect: Dark Skin (Absorb all Dark-type damage, receive additional defense equivalent to magic defense. Harden (When Son of Darkness is not attacking, absorb physical damage.)
When a dragon-like claw appeared from the python’s stomach, it was hard to tell what kind of creature it was. It had an extrely huge body, with part of it still inside the Epidemic Pond.
Each ti Venom Lei Zhika’s health points dropped by 10%, it would summon either a Boss or a normal monster. The summoned Boss could be a Son of Darkness or Pupilless Succubus. The forr was a Boss focused on physical attacks, while the latter one was focused on magic attacks.
If the summon was a normal monster, it could be Shadow Mite, Holy Beetle, or Flaming Zombies. The number was between 30 to 70.
“MTs stay back!, chanical Gargoyle co and tank,” Lin Jie yelled. “Everyone stop attacking now! Priests and Paladins charge and do damage with your heal!”
Son of Darkness was a very special Boss. It could be told from its extrely high attributes. It was even higher than the dragon Boss in Moratti Shrine. Not only that, the additional skills almost made it immune to both physical and magical damage.
Dark Skin not only absorbed Dark-type damage, but it also raised the defense of the Boss by 420, Together with its original magic defense, it was over 800! Even Dostic Fat Cattle with the Dark Gold Shard could not deal more than 20 damage to it. The Harden seed to be useless, but the attack speed of Son of Darkness was very slow. It only attacked once every 20 seconds. Within these 20 seconds, any physical damage could heal it for 10,000 health points.
It was indeed annoying!
Of course, the players could choose to not kill it. However, if the Son of Darkness did not receive any damage for an hour, it would automatically commit suicide and pass the buffs to Lei Zhika.
Son of Darkness was once considered as an impossible Boss. In Lin Jie’s past life, many teams would restart the dungeon if they encountered Son of Darkness in Epidemic Pond.
Players only found hope when the thod of killing it was by using healing skills. All the DPS would retreat, and the healers would go to the frontline, using Holy Light on the Son of Darkness.
Holy Paladin Codena Sophie had the most fun. Her class was extrely good at individual healing – they had no group healing – and a BUG-like skill, Lay on Hands!
[Lay on Hands]: When Holy Paladins heal others, the target will receive healing equivalent to the caster’s 200% health points.
The reason why Paladins were annoying was that they had attributes like a cockroach. They had four ‘lives’ in total. Divine Shield, Lay on Hands, potions and their original health points! Thus, the main attribute of Paladins was Endurance. There would be a priest in the team normally, so all they needed to do was to provide Lay on Hands at the right timing.
Codena Sophie was an expert in the Paladin ranks, and she had added all the stats to Endurance. He would usually go around with a shield and pretend to be an MT. Other than the lack of securing aggro, the tanking ability was really not bad. The main reason why Lin Jie had added him into the party was that he could use the Lay on Hands and Lin Jie was ready to sacrifice him if needed.
“Believe in the holy light!” Codena Sophie shouted and healed the Son of Darkness.
-10,248!
The five-digit damage shocked everyone.
Codena Sophie had close to 2,500 health points. With the addition 100% of Holy Light against Dark-type monsters and the skill of Lay on Hands, it was indeed incredible but achievable damage.
Seeing its health points dropping by a small portion, Son of Darkness shook its snakehead with force and hit toward Sophie.
-1,845!
The attack almost killed Codena Sophie. However, he used the Divine Shield discreetly and started to heal himself.
“Now! Attack!” Lin Jie yelled. In an instant, all sort of attacks were thrown to the Boss. Son of Darkness; health points dropped by 30,000! Son of Darkness went back to Hardened state after its attack.
Right then, Unexpected Childe did not manage to stop his attack in ti, and an arrow hit the Boss. The Boss healed 10,000 health points imdiately.
Unexpected Childe kept his weapon and apologized, “I’m sorry.”
The rest of the team locked on the Boss. It was not a good ti to bla teammates now. Rectifying the wrongs was good enough. Teamwork was the most important thing in the team!
The three Priests were: I’m No. 1, I’m No. 3, I’m No. 4. They had the most fun here. All three of them were interested in Qiu Yuan, Bu Yi, and Netherblue respectively the mont they joined the party. Each ti they healed the Boss, they would always share the love with their girls.
Bu Yi used her healing spells desperately. She felt very helpless as she was an Ascetic Priest. Her main skill was Power Word Shield instead of healing. She obviously was having a hard ti against a Boss that required healing as damage.
“I... can’t do enough healing,” Bu Yi said gloomily.
I’m No. 1 smirked and healed Bu Yi. “Co, I’ll heal you.”
Lin Jie smiled and asked, “Where is the second brother?”
“LOL! Every man has their own second brother!” The three brothers said together.
The three of them were straightaway blacklisted by the girls because of their inappropriate behavior.
Qiu Yuan said in a fierce tone, “Only heal the Boss. Whoever wastes another healing spell, all of you will lose your second brother!”
The three of them felt threatened imdiately and focused on the healing.
“I’m running out of mana.” Bu Yi drank the Mana Potion that was prepared earlier. She reminded Lin Jie, “If this goes on, we will run out of mana when the Boss is dead.”
Lin Jie took a batch of Middle-Grade Natural Recovery Potions and distributed them to everyone.
The potion could recover both health points and mana. The best part was that it shared the sa cooldown ti with a healing potion. The team was very fond of the potion and drank it imdiately. It was like gaining a few hundreds of mana points for free! With the Middle-Grade Natural Recovery Potion, the team could last longer in the battle.
Son of Darkness used to be the hardest Boss in Epidemic Pond. With the right technique, it was nothing to Savage Blade. When Codena Sophie used his Lay on Hands again, it fell onto the ground.
Ding~
—”Congratulations on your first kill of Son of Darkness, do you wish to release an announcent?”
Just like Belief Church, Epidemic Pond had a first kill reward for every Boss too. The different thing was that players would et different Bosses at a different stage, so it was extrely difficult for one to have all the first kill.
Yes!
—’System announcent: Congratulations to player “Codena Lone Wolf”. His team “Savage Blade” has obtained the first clear of [Son of Darkness]. They are rewarded with 70,000 EXP, 2 gold coins and 100 Guild of Light Reputation points.”
—’System announcent: Congratulations to player “Codena Dark Blue”, she has obtained the first clear of Son of Darkness. She is rewarded with 70,000 EXP, 2 gold coins and 100 Guild of Light Reputation points.”
The system announcent was all over the place. Although the public was prepared to see the Savage Blade get the first kill, everyone felt disappointed when they saw the announcent.
Savage Blade had their own concerns too. Lei Zhika appeared from the Epidemic Pond. Its face was extrely pale from the corrosion, covered in it was a little bit of blush. It was like a drunkard’s face.
“Keep all the equipnt for now, we’ll distribute them when we are done!”
“Yes!”
Everyone was ready for another fight and did not have the ti to look at the equipnt.
Lei Zhika shook his body and put his hands into its stomach. He pulled out a handful of potions and threw them at the team!
“Catch the potions! Dodge all the dark-grey Instant Death potions!” Lin Jie shouted. That was the scariest part of Lei Zhika!
“Kia, Kia, Kia...”
The weird laughter was like a death warning. There were dozens of colorful potions flying all over the place. The Heavenly Shield stood right in the front, and just as he was about to use it, the shield disappeared!
Extre Corrosion Potion. It can change the durability of equipnt to zero imdiately, and it would be unable to be used anymore. The change in the durability was considered as an abnormal stat, it would last 60 seconds!
“My shield was gone too!”
“Use your backup shields!”
With the disappearance of the three MTs’ shields, the defense power of the team dropped, and all of them were losing health points swiftly.
“Do not change your shield!” Bu Yi yelled and waved her wand. The air began to shake, and the potions were nullified. It was the Mass Dispel!
The shields were back again.
Then, the worst situation occurred. Lei Zhika took out 10 bottles of Instant Death Potion and threw them in the front. The three MTs were warned by Lin Jie earlier and imdiately dodged aside. The potions dropped into the Epidemic Pond.
The water surface began to boil, and a green sli appeared.
There was a countless number of black bubbles in the sli’s body, and its body was expanding, like an inflating balloon.
“Retreat! NOW!” Lin Jie scread at the team!
Everyone quickly rushed to the exit portal. Lin Jie took out Silent Killer and shot the sli. The Silence effect caused the expanding sli to shrink, and then it started to expand again.
Zheng Ziliang used his chanical Gargoyle as a shield and shouted at the MTs, “Exit! Now!”
With the cover of Lin Jie and Zheng Ziliang, everyone entered the exit portal safely. Then, the chanical Gargoyle was touched by the Corrosive Potion, and it disappeared straightway. It could only be summoned again in 2 hours ti. The mont Lin Jie exited the dungeon, the sli’s body exploded.
Countless Instant Death Potions were sprayed everywhere!
