Deathly Forest (3)

Deathly Forest (3)

Under a sky filled with after images of claws, I remained calm and focused. Even though I was greatly pressured, I managed to stay safe and sound. Occasionally, I would use my sword to fend off the attacks which I could not avoid. Sometimes, I would use some skills to deal a large amount of damage against the boss.

Claws and swords intertwined, creating countless dazzling sparks.

Afterward, under Shi Feng's command, Lonely Snow would occasionally interrupt the Hell's Roar, while Cola would hold back Felt whenever we were in danger, and Blackie would use Evil Whip to contain Felt's movements.

In such a way, Werewolf Felt's HP continuously decreased, 60%... 40%... 30%...

"Everyone stand in a straight line facing the Boss! Quickly!" Shi Feng hurriedly shouted when he saw Werewolf Felt's HP nearing 30%.

No one had any hesitation; we knew that the Boss was about to go berserk. We immediately took action, forming a straight line against Werewolf Felt, while also maintaining a 30-yard distance away from it.

The moment Werewolf Felt's HP reached 30%, its fur started changing colors. Within a moment, its fur had become snow white, and two streams of blood leaked from its eyes. Its chest also started to quickly expand, as if it was a swelled-up frog.

Shi Feng immediately ordered me to step up in front of the other party members.

"Cola, use Protection Blessing on DarkNorth!" Shi Feng loudly shouted.

Protection Blessing was able to reduce the damage taken by a party member by 50% for a duration of 6 seconds. It was a lifesaving skill with a 5-minute Cooldown, and right now was the perfect moment to use it.

Cola immidiately began chanting divine texts. Streaks of golden divine texts rushed at me.

Protection Blessing!

Suddenly, my body was surrounded by countless golden divine texts, giving off a dazzling golden glow.

At the same time, Drowsy Sloth, at the rear of the line, continuously cast Recover and Life Prayer, pulling my HP back up to full and returning me to my best condition.

Seeing me ready, Shi Feng warned me. "Prepare for a battering attack. Prepare to parry."

"Absolutely do not leave our back." Seeing Werewolf Felt's line of sight shifting towards us, Shi Feng held the Abyssal Blade across his chest as he commanded those at the back.

Hearing Shi Feng's words, we all tensed up.

Suddenly, Werewolf Felt moved. Its expanded chest started moving upwards, moving past its throat and to its mouth.

HOWL!!

Within an instant, everyone felt as if their hearts stopped beating. It was as if the world had turned gray and silent. The soaring birds in the sky had also turned motionless.

We all could clearly see the multitude of gray-colored waves being emitted from Werewolf Felt's body. Streak after streak, it continuously expanded.

At this moment, Shi Feng moved.

Phantom Kill!

The instant the dark gray ripples arrived in front of my body, his doppelganger had blocked in front of me. At the same time, the doppelganger used Parry.

Subsequently, the gray ripples made contact with the doppelganger. However, they were blocked by the doppelganger's Parry, whereas Shi Feng's doppelganger retreated a step back. He only stabilized his body after colliding with me.

Just after the doppelganger stabilized himself, another wave of ripples came smashing.

The ripples passed through the doppelganger's body this time, causing his HP to instantly decrease by 300 points. Behind him, I also received some damage.

However, the ripples did not stop with just one wave. When the third wave of ripples passed through the doppelganger, his body had instantly disintegrated. A damage of -100 points also appeared above my head. Subsequently, wave after wave of dark gray ripples followed.-100, -100, -100, -100, ...

My HP continued to decrease until only 90 points remained. When the final wave of ripples was about to get rid of me, Shi Feng quickly shouted. "NOW!"

Hearing his command, I used Parry against the ripple. I was greatly stressed as a single mistake would cost us our lives.

HONG!

I retreated several steps backward. However, I did not receive any damage. The people behind me were also relatively unharmed.

"This roar really is powerful. I even thought we were finished," Blackie wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Stop daydreaming, all of you! Quickly attack the Boss; it's in a Weakened state right now!" Shi Feng quickly commanded, seeing them stare blankly at the boss.

Hearing him, we quickly rushed at the boss and unleashed our skills.

25%... 20%... 15%...

All of us revealed smiles of excitement when we saw that Felt was about to die.

"Don't be careless. Blackie, use your Evil Whip. Lonely Snow, prepare to interrupt with Charge." Shi Feng commanded as he dodged Werewolf Felt's attack.

Just when Werewolf Felt's HP fell down to 10%, its third big move finally came.

Death Berserk!

This move would increase Werewolf Felt's Attack Speed by 100%, its Movement Speed by 40%, and its Attack Power by 100% until it died.

After activating Death Berserk, Werewolf Felt's fur started turning red; in a moment, it had become blood-red in color. Adding in its crimson red eyes and sharp fangs, Felt looked remarkably like a Blood Fiend.

Seeing this, we quickly retreated under Shi Feng's order. Afterwards, Shi Feng started to kite the boss.

Every time Werewolf Felt was about to catch up, Lonely Snow and I would Charge at it. We would the use our skill to reduce Felt's movement speed. When our skills were on Cooldown, Blackie would use Evil Whip to constrict Felt once more.

7%... 6%... 5%... 3%...

System: Your party is the first to clear a Hell Mode Dungeon. Rewards increased by 100%; loot increased by 100%.

System: Cleared Hell Mode of Deathly Forest. Rewarding 8,000 EXP

At this moment, Werewolf Felt exploded, dropping out over 10 items. Additionally, I leveled up to level 4. The EXP provided by the boss and system reward caused me to need 70% more EXP to reach level 5.

There were a total of 15 pieces of equipment. Amongst them, there was only a single Secret-Silver Equipment, which was the Crimson Blade. There were also 6 pieces of Mysterious-Iron Equipment and 8 pieces of Bronze Equipment. The Bronze Equipments dropped by the Bosses of Hell Mode were all of the highest quality. The Bronze Equipments dropped by Elites were far from comparable.

Amongst the six pieces of Mysterious-Iron Equipment, there were two pieces of the Dark Color Set meant for Cursemancers. The remaining four pieces of Mysterious-Iron Equipment were the set pieces for Guardian Knight, Shield Warrior, Berserker and Elementalist.

Due to my contributions, I received the Mysterious-Iron Equipment for berserkers.

The other five items were a Forging Design, a Potion Recipe, a rare skill for Cursemancers [Hell Flame], a notebook, and a skill book of one of Werewolf Felt's skill [Death Stare].

"Shi Feng, can I get [Death Stare]?" I immediately asked him upon remembering the effects of the skill.

Shi Feng readily agreed, seeing that I was a great help in this raid.

Upon receiving the skill book, I immediately learned it.

[Death Stare] (Active Skill)

Would cause 75% Attack Speed and Movement Speed reduction to all surrounding enemies for 10 seconds.

Cooldown time: 30 seconds

I became very excited upon learning the skill. Although I am not the fastest player in the game, with my skills, I would greatly reduce their speed. I want to laugh loudly imagining my opponent's faces when their speed became comparable to snails.

"Brother Feng, what are we going to do afterward? Grinding mobs?" Blackie was eager to try out the new skill he learned.

"That's fine as well. We'll grind and do Quests in Dark Moon Valley. The monsters there drop quite a lot of ore" Shi Feng said after some thought.

Shi Feng turned to look at us, asking, "Will you guys follow us or do Quests on your own?"

"Big Brother Feng, how could you leave me out of grinding mobs? I've already planned to follow Big Brother Feng in the future." Cola smiled like a fool as he gently caressed his new shield.

"Big Brother Feng, can I join as well?" asked Drowsy Sloth

"Of course you are all welcome to join." Said Shi Feng, causing Drowsy Sloth to become quite excited

"How about you, DarkNorth?" asked Shi Feng
