Online Games: From Professional Gold Farmer to Night King

Inside the King's Relics copy.

"Watch out! The boss is about to go berserk again! Retreat!"

The moment the words left his mouth, a golden-red light flashed across the BOSS's body, and then his entire body turned into a black hole, sucking everything around him into it.

All pets and players within a 50-meter radius were sucked in and were under control, completely unable to fight back.

"Be swallowed by darkness, intruder!"

"boom!"

Dark energy erupted, and a black shockwave spread outwards.

In just a few seconds, all 20 people were instantly killed. When they opened their eyes again, the entire team had been teleported out of the instance.

You can indeed use resurrection coins to revive in the dungeon, or revive at the resurrection point and then run over to the dungeon.

However, all of this is based on one condition: not everyone can die in battle. Otherwise, it will be considered a failure, and there will be no chance to use resurrection coins.

"Damn! This Dark Gura is ridiculous! The mechanics are absurd enough, but his ultimate skill is a massive 50-meter area-of-effect control and burst damage ability. Who can withstand that?"

Wang Yue plopped down on the ground, pouting with a wronged expression. "Waaah~ We've been playing for five days, and we still can't beat them. The other teams are almost catching up with us. If this keeps up, we might just lose the first kill to someone else."

"Alright, sweetie, if even we can't beat this boss, who else in the other guilds of Suzaku City can?" Yu Mengmeng picked up Wang Yuelai and patted her head to comfort her.

"That's true~ But we can't just keep dragging this out, can we? That would take forever~ Given this boss's mechanics, even if everyone were level 80, we still wouldn't be able to beat it~"

Wang Yue's words silenced the rest of the team, as everyone pondered how to fight this BOSS.

The Dark Gura boss is not a "dark" attribute boss in the traditional sense, but rather possesses a "devouring" attribute derived from the dark attribute.

When Gula receives elemental damage for the first time, he will trigger the "Elemental Devour" passive. For a certain period of time, he will only be able to take damage of no element or of that element, and all other elemental damage will be nullified!

This means that as long as someone with elemental attributes makes a move, the other elementalists can only watch helplessly.

That's not all. In addition to this, everyone present will also enter the "Dark Erosion" state, taking true damage equal to 1% of their health every second.

Even if you just stand there and don't move, you still have to keep drinking potions, and priests have to keep using healing skills, which consumes a lot of potions.

Of course, this problem is not unsolvable. You can still deal damage by continuously consuming elemental potions.

That's why the team members were able to reduce Dark Gura's health to 10%.

As a result, the BOSS's ultimate skill, "Dark Absorption," is a control skill with a terrifying range of 80 meters. Not only can it pull nearby enemies in, but it also renders them stiff and unable to move.

Once the duration is up, it will unleash its power and instantly kill everyone.

I had considered running out of range before, but it was no use, because the BOSS would recover 5% of its maximum health after killing a player.

Even if you only kill three or five, your health will recover by about 30%.

The most outrageous thing is that as soon as the BOSS's level drops to 10%, "Dark Absorption" will be triggered immediately. After a few times, everyone has completely given up.

Ouyang Qingtian frowned, his mind racing as he pondered the BOSS's mechanics, especially its final ultimate attack.

"Have you noticed something?"

"Sister Qingtian, what happened?"

Ouyang Qingtian glanced around and reported what she had observed. "Have you noticed that the damage dealt to those instantly killed by the BOSS this time is much higher than before?"

Everyone was taken aback, but upon closer inspection, it seemed to be true.

"Sis, you're not suggesting that this boss has a 'growth' mechanic, are you? That the more you kill, the more damage it deals?"

"Snapped!"

Ouyang Qingtian slapped Ouyang Lie away. "Idiot! How could I have such a stupid brother like you!"

Ouyang Lie covered his head, looking at Ouyang Qingtian with a wronged expression, but dared not say a word.

"Previously, the BOSS grabbed 13 of us, dealing around 14 damage. This time, it grabbed 19 of us, and the damage skyrocketed to 18-19! This is clearly not right! If I'm not mistaken, the damage of this BOSS's ultimate attack is affected by the number of players being controlled; the more players controlled, the higher the damage, and vice versa!"

"Oh! I see! So, if one person can withstand the BOSS's burst damage, then we just need to retreat when our health drops to a little over 10%, leaving that person to tank the BOSS's skills alone. That way, we won't get instantly killed, and the BOSS won't regenerate health, right?"

"That's it!"

Hearing that a solution had been found, Wang Yue immediately jumped over, her spirits high. "That's easy! Just leave Brother Zhan Dun here, right? He has over 8000 defense and nearly 80000 health. No one else can stop him, right?"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the Fiery Shield.

The Fiery Shield raised its head and patted its heavy shield heavily. "Big sister, don't worry, leave it to me, there won't be any problems!"

Looking at the confident Fiery Shield, Ouyang Qingtian pondered for a moment, then gently shook her head.

No, you can't.

"Huh? Why can't I? I'm definitely the only one among us who can handle it!"

Ouyang Qingtian sighed. "It's true you're the tankiest, but don't forget, you're supposed to tank when the BOSS's health is about to drop to 10%. That means you need to bring the BOSS's health below 10% yourself. Do you have the damage output? Your attack power isn't even enough for the BOSS to heal!"

"The distance is too far, and we can't control the pets and summoned beasts to attack. In other words, after we leave, you alone will be able to reduce the BOSS's health to 10%, which is obviously beyond your capabilities."
