The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe-Chapter 397 - 364: Coasting (Part 2)

One cannot help but admit, this is the most troublesome boss he has ever encountered.

Moreover, the opponent wasn't facing him 1-on-1, but rather being besieged by Wangzai Little Buns, Swinging in the Wind, and himself together.

Under such circumstances, maintaining an unbeaten status was truly unimaginable.

At this moment, Wangzai Little Buns and Swinging in the Wind flew over from a distance.

More than ten nautical miles were nothing to them, taking just a few breaths to return.

However, both of them looked rather miserable, with countless wounds on their bodies.

Hand Rubbing Diamonds flapped his wings and quickly reached their side, his gaze turning to Guluns before he spoke: "That boss shouldn't be feeling good either, look at him, he hasn't actively attacked."

Hearing Hand Rubbing Diamonds' words, Wangzai Little Buns and Swinging in the Wind also shifted their gaze onto Guluns.

Sure enough, Guluns at this time was standing within that Thunder Shield, staring intensely at the three, yet he didn't launch further attacks.

Wangzai Little Buns squinted slightly, then shifted his gaze to Hand Rubbing Diamonds and Swinging in the Wind beside him, and asked slowly: "How are you two? Can you still use that move?"

Upon hearing Wangzai Little Buns' inquiry, Swinging in the Wind was silent for a moment, then shook his head gently: "At least half an hour before I can use that move again."

Hand Rubbing Diamonds continued following Swinging in the Wind's words: "I can use mine again at any time, but, as you know, my combat technique requires time to brew. If you can't entangle the opponent before I throw that punch, there's a high chance he can dodge it."

Upon hearing Swinging in the Wind and Hand Rubbing Diamonds' words, Wangzai Little Buns also fell silent.

It seemed they could only delay the time temporarily.

Wangzai Little Buns took a deep breath: "My last move also consumed a lot, and the subsequent battles have left me quite injured. If I want to use it again, I need a quarter of an hour to recover."

Upon hearing Wangzai Little Buns' words, Hand Rubbing Diamonds grinned: "We're not in good shape, and the opponent may not be much better. Let's engage him momentarily and slowly recover; if we recover while he's still not recovered, we'll try to take him down."

Upon hearing Hand Rubbing Diamonds' words, Wangzai Little Buns and Swinging in the Wind no longer said anything, once again attacking Guluns.

Just as Wangzai Little Buns and Hand Rubbing Diamonds speculated, at this moment, Guluns' condition was quite bad.

After enduring the big moves of the three, Guluns outwardly seemed unharmed, but the consumption of magic power internally was intense; he even suffered a magic backlash.

The magic power within him was quite chaotic, and it would take a short period to completely restore order.

This was also why he was staring at the three yet hadn't engaged in an attack.

Because he wanted to delay time.

Once the magic within him stabilized, he could once again use the 10-time magic stack, which is the trump card he had used just now.

This magic stack is his secret weapon, allowing for 10 times magic stacking.

He could stack defense magic, and likewise, he could stack attack magic 10 times.

He hadn't done so because when the 10-time magic stack is executed, a severe chaos and backlash occur within his magic power, making it impossible to cast magic for several breaths.

Several breaths don't seem long, but in such high-stakes combat, if one's safety cannot be ensured, it is deadly.

Thus, he chose to reserve the 10-time magic stack for defense magic, as a means of protecting himself.

Instead of using it as an attack against the three.

Because he wasn't confident about obliterating all three opponents, and if even one of them remained, they could seize the opportunity to take him out.

At the moment, he still doesn't plan to use the 10-time magic stack for attack magic, only wanting to have an extra ace once he recovers.

Even if the three opposing him deploy that combo again, there will be no way to deal with him.

After all, the previous encounter had already proven this.

The concern now was whether the three opponents could use that move again before his recovery.

If they could execute that big move before his state fully recovered, Guluns couldn't guarantee his survival.

Finally, the four engaged again.

Just that compared to before, this exchange seemed petty.

The magnitude of their clashes diminished significantly, and the intervals between attacks slowed down. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

As time passed, more cold sweat appeared on Guluns' forehead.

With one more minute, his internal state would stabilize, and he could once more execute the 10-time magic stack.

He hoped the three wouldn't unleash that big move within that timeframe.

Finally, as a minute passed, Guluns wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead, revealing a relieved smile.

It was evident now that the cooldown for that move of the three was much longer than his recovery time.

With that, he at least had confidence in remaining unbeaten under the trio's offense.

Now, he fully pinned his hopes on others in the battlefield.

In Guluns' view, since he kept the most troublesome three enemies occupied, if the remaining Legendary Tier couldn't deal with the other Undead Creatures, then they truly were useless.

As for using the 10-time stack on attack magic to exchange life for life, Guluns wouldn't do something that foolish.

Unless all the remaining Legendary Tier were dead and he was left with no hope, he might then use that 10-time stacking on attack magic.

Otherwise, it would be impossible; his life mattered the most.

At this point, the three players engaged with Guluns frowned slightly.

All three had quite sharp combat instincts and naturally noticed the change in Guluns' state immediately.

Wangzai Little Buns frowned and said: "Damn it, it seems the boss has recovered."

Upon hearing Wangzai Little Buns, Swinging in the Wind, and Hand Rubbing Diamonds' expressions turned somber.

After silently attacking Guluns for a while, Swinging in the Wind spoke up: "If the boss has recovered, even if we team up again with that move, the result might be the same—there's no way to deal with him."

"It seems solving the battle is impossible; we can only stall him, pinning our hopes on the other players on the battlefield."

Listening to Swinging in the Wind, Wangzai Little Buns nodded heavily, acknowledging Swinging in the Wind's viewpoint.

From then on, the three decided not to use such a dangerous big move, instead persistently entangling Guluns, as if going through the motions.

Guluns seemingly caught on to Wangzai Little Buns' intentions, similarly going through the motions cooperatively.

The four occasionally glanced at other parts of the battlefield, observing the situations elsewhere.
