It's been 10 minutes since I have gone inside but I never expected that I am still in 5% in the dungeon. Also, the GraveEaters are still here with more power and more HP. I killed them for a least 16 times already.
"GraveEaters(Elite)"
Level 40
HP: 13,000/13,000
Attribute: Undead, Darkness
Thanks to the lingering effect of the Decade Spiritual Tea, my fatigue did not raise fast enough despite the countless usage of the skills.From the looks of it, the GraveEaters are now in their limits. As they kept on consuming the dead and the other mobs for their own revival, it made me able to survive without ceaselessly killing monsters without stopping. I only need to employ my strategy on killing these monsters. At first, my combo is Earth Fissure, Freezing Prison, and Thunderbolt but now I added the Splash potion series in the battle as they can also give decent damage against them which I really needed. In actuality, they were one of the most life saving skills, they also have no cooldown and only consume mana. But even so, I dare not abuse it. Using a multiple potions with the same effect is quite useless unless you want to cover a wider range of damage as the effects do not usually stack. The enemies are also getting small as time pass by. From what I can see around, there are no more enemies worth to beat, only the GraveEaters left.
"Let's finish this crap!" I growled and quickly rushed towards them while quickly changing my weapon into a hammer.
"Berserk!"
"Critical Aura!"
"Absolute Defense!"
I am not gonna lie here, in reality, my mind is clearly fatigued. But since I was already used to it, I will keep it up. Seeing me change the tactics, the GraveEaters was in a sudden panic. From the repeated techniques I did earlier, of course, these monsters gain knowledge on what to do the next attack begin but after my new pattern that they don't recognize, I can sense that they did not even have the slightest idea on how to block me. In the end, they charged to me straight without any kind of plan. Just a mind of a monster I see.
"DIE!"
As I get near the nearest GraveEater, before it can do any harm at me, I quickly swing the weightless hammer hard which gained weight as it launches to the GraveEater.
BANG!
As if a glass, the GraveEater lost all life it has within and shattered to pieces before flying in a distance.
-15,000! Critical!
I did not bother looking at the result log, I quickly do another casual full powered swing.
BANG!
This time, it did not result into a kill but it still drained half of its HP. Since I have not finished my assault, I once again swing the hammer on the unfortunate fellow and before he can react, he met his demise.
-LEVEL UP!
Oh, I did not notice that but crap, I got distracted and a GraveEater pounced on me.
"Sh*t!"
-9, 143
From my 13,000 HP, It fell drastically, making me panic. Dang! I shouldn't have gotten distracted! Before the other GraveEaters find their way to me, I quickly used the Ninja skill, Substitute.
Substitute can replace me and will instead catch all the damage I will take before sending me away from the enemy. It was convenient if not for the cooldown of 20 minutes. As my HP is slowly falling, I will use this now.
"Substitute!"
A faint glow envelopes my body before I realized that I was teleported a few meters away from the attacks and there stood a replica of mine. While they are preoccupied, I quickly healed myself with Healing Heart and Rapid Regeneration which rapidly put my health back to full bar.
The Magician skills are all done in cooldown now, let's do this!
"Freezing Prison!"
As the GraveEaters are all frozen on the spot, I quickly cast the Poison Splash and Flame Splash all together and throw it to the monsters. Since Flame Splash is a Flame type attack, Freezing Prison melted causing them to break free. But due to the additional effect of Poison which is slowing enemies down, I did not need to use Petrify Splash to deal with them. With consistent damage, I quickly need to attack them now. Changing my weapon into a Staff, drank another bottle of Wizard Potion and chant the necessary chant.
"Lord of Lightning, heed my call to strike my foes with divine retribution that smites the darkness that lives within! Thunderbolt!"
CRACKLE!
The power of the Thunderbolt was very strong and can be considered as a destructive Tier 2 skill upgrade of the Shocking Lightning. What made me more happy is the fact that it was enhanced further by the Wizard Potion I just drank earlier.
ZZZZZZZ!
The electricity continues to travel in their undead body until their HP fell to zero. This time, they did not crawl back to shadows but instead fell and turned to dust.
Huffing and puffing, I knelt powerlessly on the ground. That was still a mere Elite Monster, what is more on the Boss Room? Well, I already have an idea how hellish it is but still I need to go on. My Fatigue Level is already 42%. Still far from 100% but I still feel a bit heavy and groggy. As I swept the drops on the floor without bothering to look at them, I quickly made my long strides towards the Boss Room.
There are no more monsters on sight which made me happy a bit since I have no time to deal with them if ever they appear. Within two minute walk, I finally arrived at the boss room door.
And as usual to all Abyss Mode Players in my last timeline, there is a mini boss waiting.
"Hell Knight Riguo"
Mini Boss
Level 47
HP: 200,000/200,,000
Attribute: Darkness
This time, it is not an undead monster. Its a darkness attribute. I still did not learn any skills in Lift Attribute like Holy Ray and Divine Tribulation which are all a skill of Holy Knight. But I don't need it, I can contend on that.
With a Katana on my hands, and a focus look on the mini boss, I quickly made my move. I drank the Dragon Strength Potion and quickly activated the three warrior combo.
"Berserk!"
"Critical Aura!"
"Absolute Defense!"
Casting those buffs immediately powered me up and I quickly sprinted towards the mini boss, entering its aggro range.
"Pu!"
The swift feet of the boss is considered as top class but I already knew its pattern so I don't need it to dodge its attack. I unleashed my Samurai Skill.
"Whirlwind Slash!"
Gust of wind blades appeared in the air as I swung my katana into the boss.
Su! Su! Su!
It caused a few amount of damage but not enough to fell its HP to 99%.Despite being hit by the Whirlwind Slash, the Hell Knight Riguo is still charging. Well, that is expected, this guy is a masochist and he loves pain that is why he became a hell Knight. According to the lore, when the war is over, Riguo wandered around the Resurgia Continent to look for opponents to prepare a good beating but due to the peaceful world, he was furious because his pain is no longer acting the same way he love to feel. This made Riguo mad and he decided to sell his soul to the Demons which allowed him to get stronger and at the same time, satisfy his craving into pain. This boss will scream after a decent attack or pain caused him most of the time to scream in delight on which is actually a bit odd creepy.
Hai, why do I have to face this bullsh*tty boss? Well, I have no choice. After contemplating on the way the character was built, I decided to rapidly kill this one out.
Hell Knight Riguo might be a mini boss but due to his nature to love pain, he usually allow players to hit him until 50% HP before he gets serious. The tactic here is to beat him up before he can respond. Usually, I do this with a spam of skills with my other party members but now that I am on solo battle, I guess killing it immediately proves to be harder than expected.
I did not waste any time and quickly changed my weapon into a magic sword and used Flaming Sword to imbue a flame power on the sword.
Entering the Aggro Range of the boss, I did not allow it to respond and quickly darted towards the boss. With my high Agility accompanied with the Dexterity stat, this is an easy job. I quickly charge my powers up before attacking.
Charging up is similar to the games where you charge up power by pressing the button of a controller without lifting your finger or rapidly tapping the said button. It acts similar though different in execution as I personally do it. I rarely do the charging attack as I will et vulnerable by attacks at that time but since this guy only attacks when its HP fell to 50%, I quickly charged up the power of the sword as I darted towards the boss before executing a rapid flurry of sword strikes.
PENG! PENG! PENG!
Sparks fly as I strike the hard armor continuously and the boss have no time to react and speak. But from his expression, I can see that he is screaming in delight. So disgusting. In the middle of my combo, I changed my Versatile Weapon into a Katana and used a Whirlwind Strike as a finisher.
BANG!
The power of Dragon Strength is quite good. It enhances my normal attacks like it was not a problem and even my skills have drastically gotten stronger. The boss staggers after my finisher and I quickly leap away from him and changed my weapon into a brass knuckles. Fighters usually use Brass Knuckles for strong execution of battle techniques but sometimes, Staffs are quite good to fight too. Its HP fell to 71% after the flurry of attacks. Of course that is just easy since its HP is not that high only 200,000.
When Hell Knight Riguo began to stand up, I darted back again and this time, Brass Knuckles are the way. Brass Knuckles are really goof for players who invested their AP in DEX and AGi which compliments a lot on this play style.
"Ha!"
Punching is much easier but you need much closer proximity on the enemy than the sword which has a decent distance from the enemy. Brass Knuckle fighting has a lot of risk being countered that is why Fighters naturally uses more of their senses and they should be able to tell when to retaliate and back off from a battle.
My flurry of punches was quite strong causing it to be knocked countless of times. I kept on punching him like there is no tomorrow and with my hands getting numb at the moment, I executed Triple Blow which is a Fighter skill that allows three consecutive punches with High Attack Ratio and Critical Rate. Quite good as finishers.
"Creak!"
Huh? When the last punch of the Triple Blow was executed, I suddenly felt amiss. Then I just noticed that Hell Knight Riguo's face is ruined beyond recognition. His HP fell from 71% to 0%.
"..." I forgot that his weakness is every part of his body that has no armor. From the looks of it, the creak sound I heard might be the bones destroyed to pieces by me. Looks like it was an overkill.
Drops were already in the floor and I quickly swiped off the drops without checking them. I can check then later after the dungeon.
Leaving the pitiful corpse of the Mini Boss, I quickly made my way to the familiar boss room. Previously, I already faced off with its boss. Orthrus is going to take revenge I guess now that his strength is almost on par now with me. I pushed the door of the Boss Room and there, Orthrus is currently waiting.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
