The raid party went towards the next area by heading down below. The only walked about fifty meters and they already saw the entrance to the next area. The next area was even bigger than the previous one. The ceiling was about 100 feet in height with stalactites still seen scattered throughout.
Inside the cavern is a small looking rock hill that is twenty five feet in height. The giant rock hill was unmoving but Adrian knew that this was the mini-boss that they are going to face.
Monster: Rock Recluse Spider Queen (Mini-boss)
Level: 108
HP: 10,000,000 / 10,000,000
MP: 1,000,000 / 1,000,000
Description: An arachnid species that is said to be part stone and part spider. It lazily sleeps all day but wakes up when intruders set forth in their territory. It is slow but it has high health and tough defense. Like any queen of a species, its primary goal is to reproduce and create a swarm for it to conquer areas. It can use magic of the earth category in order to protect itself.
“It is three levels above the normal Rock Recluse Spider but it is five times the size of a normal one.” Adrian murmured.
“Just bombard it with skills as this mini-boss is not mobile. It will shoot rocks at us like a machine gun when it fires back so the tanks must soak up all the damage. It can also regenerate by inhaling the scattered rocks in the area so be mindful. The only weak spot of this boss is when it exposes its mouth.” Mariposa ordered.
The whole group once again did the offensive in their groups of six. Adrian immediately used the second skill of his bow Psyche Armament. His arrows now do piercing thereby negating the armor of the Rock Recluse Spider Queen.
The only limitation of this skill is the Soul Gauge that is currently sitting at 100 stacks of Soul Essence. One arrow with piercing effect cost about five essences and Adrian will not regenerate soul essences when the second skill is active. Effectively, Adrian could only fire twenty arrows with piercing effects towards the mini-boss.
Whenever Adrian shot an arrow, another arrow would follow after it. The arrow was fired by Alder the elven young man who introduced himself earlier. Although he did not state it, Alder looked like he was competing with Adrian as the former will fire his arrow in the same area where Adrian’s arrow will hit.
Both of their arrows are magical in nature thus it could damage to the mini-boss. From Adrian’s observation, Alder’s class is close to a Magical archer. But when Adrian directed his gaze towards him, Adrian could see little creatures with different colors next to Alder.
“It seems he has a hidden class. Those look like elementals. He uses them to empower his arrows with attributes but it seems that he is not aware of them. Still it is pointless to compete, this is not even a competition.” Adrian thought.
It did not take long for the Rock Recluse Spider Queen to drop towards 60% health. It then opened its mouth and pebbles that numbered in hundreds were spit out like a machine gun. It can even turn its body around to redirect the attack so that it spreads.
“It will continue to attack for ten minutes. Tankers get ready to soak the damage while the healers will keep you alive.” Mariposa commanded.
The tankers then readied their shields and cast their defensive skills. Adrian then saw the opportunity to fire off his Shooting Star skill at the mouth of the mini-boss. Adrian drew the bow to its utmost limit and a bright shining light was collected on the arrow head.
When the Rock Recluse Spider Queen’s mouth is in his line of sight, he fired the skill. Like its name, the shooting star blitz towards the mouth of the spider queen. The spider queen did not react in time and closed its mouth. The skill entered the mouth and the spider queen cried and it sounded like scratching a blackboard with your nails.
Those who are annoyed by the sound covered their ears while others just look disturbed. Adrian though was wide eyed because of the insane damage he just dealt.
[You have dealt a devastating 522,783 damage to the Rock Recluse Spider Queen.]
While the spider queen was still in pain and thrashing about, Mariposa ordered her giant praying mantis to attack the mini-boss. The giant praying mantis was as agile as Sirius and made its way to the mouth of the spider queen where it slashed at it with intense bloodlust.
The giant praying mantis was about ten feet tall and its scythe like claws was as big as its body which it has for of them. The wailing spider queen uttered a horrible screech once more and its eyes turned red. It seemed that they manage to trigger its berserk state despite it only being at 55% health.
The spider queen started to speed up towards them and was attempting to ram its aggressors to death. Adrian who saw this immediately sprinted away from the direction the spider queen is ramming. .𝒎
“Tanks get ready to cast Rebound simultaneously. It would need all of us in order to knock it back.” A burly man that had shining equipment stated.
As if taking the orders from their commander, the ten tank players all huddled together with their shields upfront.
“Damage dealers get ready to bombard it when it is knocked back.” Mariposa ordered and summoned another soulbound that looked like an armored dragonfly.
“Master, that soulbound that the Insectomancer summoned has some draconic properties.” Kanlaon said via their soul link.
“Interesting. It seems she is not the rank one summoner for nothing.” Adrian thought.
“Tanks. Get ready to cast on my command.” The burly man stated as his grip on his shield became tighter.
The Spider Queen was charging towards the tanks without even thinking of the danger. It was even screeching while doing so. When the spider queen was about one meter apart, the burly man shouted to activate the skill. The timing could not be more perfect as the moment the spider queen’s body reached them, the body of the tanks glowed in a golden color.
There was a sound of a collision and then the huge body of the spider queen was sent backwards. Adrian saw this as an opportunity and immediately activated Orion’s Wrath which is the third skill of the bow Psyche Armament.
Adrian flew to a height of eighty feet and use twenty Nether Energy to enchant each of his three attacks. The shooting star that shined like a brilliant platinum light became tainted with black and gray energy. Adrian fired the three Nether Shooting Stars in succession in order to deal immense damage to the spider queen.
Every person in the raid could feel an oppressive energy when Adrian shot those arrows. The even saw a silhouette of horns and wings on Adrian but they were brought back to reality by a shout. .𝒎
“What are you doing spacing out!? Hurry and use your skills to kill the mini-boss.” Mariposa shouted.
All of them also used their damaging skills even the healers. A rain of different colored skill shots bombarded the spider queen and it finally shrieked one last time before the armored dragonfly emitted sonic attacks using its wings to finish it off.
