Bang!
Azar finally manages to land a powerful hit that pushes Tank back by a meter, the wooden floor underneath Tank cracks from the blow as the latter holds his shield firmly while staring at the boss. He was the only one that had not yet realized what had happened as he was too engrossed in the battle.
"You bugs, you inexcusable f-ing bugs!" Azar suddenly shouts as all of his mana was blasted from him, it covered his whole body in a half a meter radius as it spiked above his head. His muscles bulged out as his armors started cracking, before long the whole armor broke in pieces as a now 5-meter tall orc stood in front of Tank and the others.
"The fck?" Shadow suddenly curses as he looks at the boss absent-mindedly, "He got stronger by getting angry, are we in DBZ or something?"
"Whatever it is, this should be it, I don't believe that he will last long with all that mana being used." Wolf suddenly says as he charges toward the boss with the others.
[ Warning, the enemy has entered a Berserk state. ]
The system suddenly notifies Reign and the others as they run towards the boss while preparing to attack him, the notification wasn't really surprising as they had already guessed that the power-up the boss had received was due to a berserk state. His mana was wild as it changed to a darker green color.
The boss had suddenly grown to be at least double stronger compared to how he was before, even Tank had a solemn look on his face as he wasn't certain that he could continue blocking his attacks as he did before. He wasn't stupid and knew that the boss hadn't gone all out previously.
"I'm going to rip you bastards apart, your skulls will decorate my hall as wine cups as your bodies will rot and be presented at the gates as a warning to anyone that dares attack me, the mighty Azar!!" The chieftain yells in fury as he swings his glaive towards Tank who blocks the attack.
'Heavy!" Thinks Tank as he could feel the power behind the attack, even with his skill still activated he had slight trouble when defending against a normal swing.
'Double, no perhaps his strength has even tripled!'
[ Shield Rupture ]
Tank suddenly uses his skill and forces the glaive back as Azar's arms shake for a brief moment before stabilizing, even when using a skill Tank was barely able to force him back, if he was to attack him with a powerful skill now he wasn't certain if he could do the same as before and block it completely.
Suddenly the boss twirls his glaive behind his back before performing an upwards slash towards the approaching Reign, the power behind the swing brought a fierce wind towards Reign as he pointed both of his swords to greet the attack.
[ Raging Wind ]
[ Rage of the Kirin ]
Clang!
[ Sword of Flames ]
[ Shadow Burst ]
Wolf and Shadow suddenly appear next to Reign as the three use their skills in order to match the boss. An intense gust of wind blows from the powerful impact as the three had managed to successfully contend against the boss, even so, their faces had a solemn look as they stared at the boss.
Pain coursed along their arms as they had not gone completely unscathed from the previous impact. The berserk state of the boss improved all of his stats by a large margin and they knew that they had to attack fast and not allow him to counterattack them.
Reign suddenly uses his lightning charge as he appears next to Azar's right leg, his katana was swung with all of his might as it neared the leg. Suddenly the boss shifts his weight completely on his right leg as a powerful burst of mana explodes from it, blowing Reign back as he uses his arms to cover his face as cuts appear on them.
"Dammit, his reaction speed is insane!" Curses Reign before disappearing from the spot as the glaive comes down on his position.
Bam!
[ Flame Slash ]
Wolf sends his flaming sword slashes ahead as they hit the boss, the powerful mana covering him however managed to weaken the attack greatly as shallow cuts appear on his body, barely drawing any blood. The flames were extinguished even before they could burn the chieftain's body by the mana that was seemingly devouring everything that was thrown it's way.
Beast suddenly started shooting his balls of light from afar as he dropped his bow. Because he had seen how Tank was improving his ability previously he decided to waste some of his precious fusion time and used the bow from afar in order to summon the tornado, even though his body was different during the fusion he was still capable of drawing the bow and managed to activate the skill.
Now however he had gone back to using the power of his lion as he stopped and prepared for a big attack, since the boss was currently greatly enhanced and his fusion time was nearly over he decided not to spare anything and drew out every ounce of light that the lion had absorbed in order to launch a terrifyingly powerful attack.
Laura had already used the skill from the necklace as numerous pentagrams shone all around her. Tens of demonic weapons spawned as she sent them flying towards the boss. This was currently her strongest attack, by drawing the pentagrams and using the necklace she was able to unleash a terrifying barrage of attacks that could destroy anything in front of her.
Thanks to the properties of her demonic energy her attacks were able to wound the chieftain, even the seemingly all-devouring mana around the boss were unable to completely absorb the demonic energy and soon the boss had to defend himself against the attacks.
Of course, the way he defended himself was different compared to what most would have done. As was the saying, the best defense is a strong offense.
The boss once again used his punch to crack the space in front of him and blow half of the attacks away before sending a slash towards the other ones. A 5m long glaive light was sent flying towards the attacks as they were all stopped and broken by it. It was evident that the boss was more than capable of dealing with them right now.
Suddenly a powerful ball of light that burned the air around it was sent towards the boss after the glaive light had disappeared since the boss had just finished his attack he wasn't ready for it and had to hastily swing his glaive in order to meet the attack head-on.
Bam!
A huge explosion suddenly took place as the glaive and ball collided, the powerful attack was not only formed from all the light that the lion had absorbed but a good chunk of Beast's mana as well. Even with the boss being in his berserk state he was still injured from the powerful attack, the mana covering his body had slightly lessened as the hand that held the glaive was burned by the intense light.
Immediately after launching the attack, Beast was covered in a ball of light as the fusion had ended, without waiting even for a moment he took out his bow and notched a red arrow on it before imbuing a great deal of his mana in it.
Tank on the other hand stood in front of the boss as he wasn't going to allow him to stop Beast from launching his attack. The powerful Rank A arrow was the most powerful attack that Beast could launch right now and it was above even the ball of light he previously launched.
Shadow and Reign appeared behind the boss as they targeted his legs again, Greenie was in the midst of swinging his hammer from behind the boss while Wolf sent a huge fireball towards him.
Laura on the other hand had once brought the dark tome out, not only did Tank's actions previously stop Beast, but she and the others also decided to stop for a moment and allow Tank to shine, their trust in him was great and he was able to show them why as he managed to finally evolve his ability to rank A.
But since that had passed she was ready to use the second skill she had managed to learn from the tome. A weird mass of dark mana was formed above her hand as she started chanting the skill as per the instructions of the dark tome.
The boss was busy with Reign and the others and he couldn't deal with the two ranged attackers, unfortunately. But Wolf suddenly stopped attacking and retreated a bit as he showed a ferocious smile after talking to Reign for a bit.
He held his sword in front of him while pointing it upwards as it suddenly emits an intense aura. It wasn't mana pressure but simply the power and pressure that came from a powerful monster that belonged to the top of the food chain.
"Dragonification," Wolf utters as he stares at the boss with intense bloodthirst.
Boom!
