MMORPG: Rebirth Of The Strongest Assassin-Chapter 44: First Boss Kill
Yone could understand their concerns at a glance, but didn’t bother to explain that Eclipse Online was unlike any other game they played.
As a matter of fact, hell mode was so terrifying that his party members would most likely lose hope after this point onwards.
[Rock Babies ] ( Minions) ( Lv 2) : Little rocks that fight alongside their father.
Everyone drew a deep breath as they saw the twenty Rock Babies scattered around the boss, their hearts wavering at the sight. But what they didn’t know was that Yone was already aware of this and was confident in coming here, or else he would have never risked it.
Subsequently, Yone began giving commands," Tank, I want you to take care of the rock babies by agroing all of them and dogging as many attacks as possible. Cleric, focus all your heals on the tank while occasionally casting Renew on one of the melee assaulters."
"Life, I want you to keep track of the boss’s movements and destroy any rock he is about to build up between his hands by targeting the middle point in the air between his palms. As for you two assaulters, just kill the rock babies and I’ll take care of the boss alone till you finish all of them."
Finishing his words, Yone went into absolute invisibility as he said in the party chat," Life, send an arrow to the rock babies and start the fight. Silent Wall, ready your shield and Unmovable Wall ultimate to tank all of them for six seconds while taking 70% less damage. Do not follow me into the boss only after killing all the rock babies."
Life didn’t waste a single moment before she stretched her bow and took agro by aiming at the boss himself, not even the rock babies as Yone instructed her, since she thought that directly hitting the boss is more effective than its minions.
At the same time, she kept casting a side glance at Yone, ensuring that no rocks had detected his stealth. Little did she know that his stealth was absolute, and nothing could detect him for four seconds.
The battle started, and Yone quickly went to work as he was already behind the boss and thrust his dagger right at his leg. With the addition of the +5 attributes he got from the weapon and his level 6, his movement speed and attack speed were on a whole new level as the boss’s attack missed him any time he tried to attack him.
He was leading by example as he chipped the boss’s HP by 20% in just under a minute, assisting other players morally.
His team on the other hand didn’t laze around as although their skills weren’t comparable to their capabilities seven years into the future, they still cleaned about 50% of the minions in a bit over a minute, with the Cleric’s mana not falling under 50% and Life managing to dismantle any gigantic rock the boss tried to create.
Moreover, after Life found out that the one responsible for her suffering this past thirty minutes by trapping her into an endless loop of scouting the sky for any aerial attacks was the rock boss in front of her, her rage rose to new levels as she even dished out damages of tens at rapid succession.
-10!...-14!...Critical Hit!...-7!
With the two melee range damage dealers leading the attack on the baby rocks, the smaller minions were easily dealt with." Rage and Swift Slash, come attack the boss with me, and Silent Wall just protect the cleric and the hunter". Saying that, Yone attacked the boss using his Active Skill: Frozen Night, dealing -450 critical hit on the spot as even the rock’s hand that was about to create a rock momentary froze, given his passive inflicted on him.
Rocky Rock roared and used the earthquake stomp skill, a shockwave rippled across the ground, damaging every player in the party
-100
-80
-107
A string of damage appeared above the players ahead leaving at a critical shreld which Calm Sea instantly burst into action, used Save the Day on Yone as he tanking the boss, Renew on Silent Wall since he didn’t take a lot of damage given his attributes and then used her regular spell Heal to full the rest of the part.
’Damnit, this needs to end fast,’ Yone cursed as he saw Calm Sea enter the critical threshold of 2% mana with barely any ability to heal anymore.
Evasion!
20%... The boss HP was going down at a speed visible to the naked eye, but everyone felt the urgency as his next slam was about to hit them one more time after sensing that he could never create his rock and wipe the party out.
17%...13%...9%...
Reaching a critical level, Yone yelled in the party chat," Everyone hide behind the Silent Wall as he uses his ultimate. Calm Sea, use all your remaining mana on the tank and ignore me."
Right after his words, Yone gritted his teeth as he slightly bent his knee and jumped on top of the boss’s shoulders as he used evasion once it was off cooldown, and then followed by another Frozen Night.
Dang! Bam!
-570!...Critical Hit!
[Rocky Rock] (Chieftain-rank)
Level 3
HP 475 / 10000
Right after the number was shown on top of the boss’s head, Rocky Rock crumbled into tiny stones as he scattered into the ground with several items dropping.
A system notification rang through everyone’s ears, but no one was paying attention to it as their whole focus was on the damage they had last seen before the boss’s HP plummeted to zero.
What the fuck was that absurb damage!???
Suddenly, a thought popped into their minds simultaneously,’ Does Requiem even need a party? He literally just soloed the first boss of a fricking HELL MODE DUNGEON!’
Shock! Awe and Respect all hit them at the same time!
All kinds of emotions mixed in together, making them feel a sense of hopelessness yet also joy. It was hard to explain, but all they needed to know was that Requiem was an expert, not a lucky player!
Level up!
A notification was heard again, and everyone leveled up once since they had been at level 2 while even Yone saw his EXP bar rise by a good 20% chunk, making him smile uncontrollably.
Not because of the EXP, but more because he felt that he now had enough of a bargaining chip to rope some of the players in his party to his guild in the future, especially after the display he just showed!
