Chapter - 23 Basinshore (3)
[You have successfully slain a Grisly Brown Bear (Superior). Experience in killing a monster. You have received 20400 Experience points.]
Zirx earns a little bit of experience after killing the monster by himself some of the experience was divided into his teammates.
He turns around to see if the bear has still more health. "Oh!" Zirx was shocked as he touches his chin, he expects that there will still a quarter of health before the bear died. But he found out that it only has 5% remaining health.
Most of his skill has cooldown by now. Rushing towards the bear to help his teammates...
'What was that the bear still has 200+ health but when he combo it, it was devoured,' Phantom Voyage turn his around to inspect Alphablast they both used their skill to assist Zirx but their damage is not that high to devour 200+ of the Grisly Black Bear 'what a monster.' He sighs with relief in his mind, he was able to see guys like this.
"We will take a rest after that we will back hunting until we get to the lair of the Zenith monster."
Even they kill two Emissary they didn't find any good thing at all. They are also near the Zenith rank monster liar.
From time to time they encounter some Grisly Bear. Of course, they easily kill them. Though they still haven't got anything else decent item nor a material. Zirx gain at least 26% of the experience needed to level up as his teammates they earning adequate experience.
...
Now that they are near the lair of the Grisly Berserker. Observing the perimeter there is no one else except the Grisly Berserker who is napping on the top of the boulder. The terrain is a bit advantage to them there is a higher ground with a height of three meters where the archer can assist the front liner.
"How come he is bigger than I expected, I know it will be big but not this big." Deltaflight was kinda trembling. The Grisly Berserker was two and a half meters tall the body big, sturdy, and was full of hair. There is a scar on its back its looks like a claw of the grisly bear.
Grisly Berserker (Zenith): Level 15
4,000/4,000
Swoosh
Alphablast is the one who fires that arrow Zirx gave him a signal when he will fire. Deltaflight stood in front of the bear but he was 10 meters away he needs to dodge the first charge if he wants to survive. Zirx provides 2 intermediate health potions to Delta flights he will drink them if there is an unexpected situation happen. They also found a shield when they open a treasure chest it was a unique shield the stats were high enough to thwart the bear attacks it has a passive skill that can absorb damage up to 300 damage. It also has a 10% damage reduction towards to beast monster.
The distance between the bear and the archer was 25 meters it was not far away nor it easy to near. it was the perfect distance to display their skill in archery. The arrow lands in the back of the bear that napping body. The bear received digit damage so the bear opens its eyes and look at the one who fires the arrow and sneered. He went back to sleep due to light damage the arrow didn't even leave a wound on its body. Alphablast frowned upon seeing the sneered of the bear as for the rest they chuckle when they saw the bear sneered.
Piercing Shot
-15
Alphablast looks at the bear with a cold gaze. He used Piercing Shot to vent some anger at the bear. The bear now looks back at the archer. The bear received two-digit damage to Alphablast. It gets up, walks slowly with four legs. The Grisly Berserker smashes the tree nearby. This is the end of Basinshore at the back of the boulder was a river which they can use to corner the bear it was the perfect spot for the archer. They also slay the bear at 60 meters that were close to this area so that the Grisly Bear cant request for ally if he was in danger.
Swoosh
Arrows and knife lands in the body of the bear. The bear was now starting to get serious.
Boom
A loud noise echo in the area. The tree was crushed into a pieces. The ground trembles after the noise echo. Deltaflight wipes the cold sweat on his forehead. 'Phew! That was dangerous! I need to be extra careful from now.'
Zirx uses Haste Step to aggro the bear and evades the attack carefully. He also activates Moonlight Burst Strike both of his dagger shine with a bright light the light was not pure white there is a faint crystal blue on the edge of the dagger. The dagger lands in the lungs part of the bear. Double Stab! The dagger light has gone when he used a skill other than Moonlight Burst Strike. The dagger in his right stab the lungs twice. After stabbing twice the dagger has emitted light again.
Blazing Charge!
Deltaflight charges to get the attention of the bear so Zirx could flawlessly harm the bear.
Primal Strike!
He bumps into the body as he raised his sword to slash down the bear.

The damage was too low. To get the attention of the bear
Rapid Shot
-8(5)
The bear look at the sides where the charge, slash, and arrow came from. The first thing the Grisly Bear saw was Deltaflight. He smashed his hand to mash Deltaflight. Deltaflight block with his shield.
-149
It's just a normal smash yet it was powerful enough to kill a mage or priest in one hit. That's what was Deltaflight thinking. Fear is starting to bloom in his heart. Bash! He runs away to drink a health potion. After he used Bash he drinks a beginner health potion.
The bear was a stab again but now it hit in the head. The bear look at his back, he saw Zirx in there.
Zirx duck to evade the paw that's coming from his left side. Zirx needed to avoid all the attacks carefully because with just two to three hits he will die as for the Archer just a normal slash or even smash they might die.

'Like, c'mon we can't kill this guy if this is only our damage. But if we used our skill the bear might charge to us,' Phantom Voyage look at Alphablast when he thinks about it. 'if only I have a lifesaving skill I will fire skill rather than a normal arrow.'
Swoosh
Boom
-345
Deltaflight lost half of his health when he was thrown away, he was almost consigned to the grave if he didn't block the attack properly.
Wolf Spirit!
Howl can be heard when the wolf has summoned it abruptly rush to tank the bear so the archer can be safe and they would not die. The wolf gnaws flesh at the bear. Deltaflight drinks another beginner health potion to replenish his health he only has 5 beginners and 2 intermediate if might not be enough if they did not fasten their pace.
Zirx took out a magic scroll he is leisurely using the magic scroll as if it was 1 silver per scroll. The magic scroll he will use is a lightning type so it has high damage against a single monster or player. Activating the magic scroll, it becomes lightning a shape starting to appear it was a sword the blade has a length of 25 inches and hilt was 7 inches. The blade was floating around his body it can attack 5 times
Esoteric Lightning Edge!
Arh-wooooo...
Crying in his last second the wolf die because he was beaten up to a pulp, it was going to disappear anyway so Zirx dint mind it. Delta flight was still far away from the bear he just replenishes a few of his health so he needs time to fully absorb the potion.
Slash! Stab! Thrust!

-150
-166
He did not expect that the damage was not high. 'Is this because the defense of the Grisly Berserker was so high?' The only thing he could think was the defense is so high that even a magic scroll could only do was so so.
He only deals 700+ damage but the bear has received a paralysis effect for 5 seconds which.
The archer now can fully use their skill to deal damage.
...
30 minutes have passed the bear now has 65% health remaining.
"Archers go away from that area, get down, left that high ground it will be destroyed by any moment!" Zirx shouts in a panic because that place will be destroyed when the 2nd growl happens. It would not be a good idea to stay there because the bear will target that after growling.
Both of them followed what Zirx said they run down and go to the left side of the high ground.
It was trembling the ground was trembling after, no, the place where Phantom Voyage and Alphablast sniping was the only one trembling.
Roar!
Boom
A roar came from the mouth of the Grisly Berserker. Looking at the high ground it was destroyed, the bear was also standing there.
"Used Blazing Charge to hinder the bear. Get its attention by any means! Zirx instructs Deltaflight to hinder the bear so the arches can run. He looks at the archer and said "Run! Don't attack find a good spot to snipe properly."
Zirx kick the bear in the leg. Slash! Deltaflight slashes it. The bear raised one of its arms the claw of the become red as the colors of its blood it was a light red. It was a skill. "Dodge!" Both Deltaflighy and Zirx shout in panic, but in just a second they calm themselves they know that panicking will become their end so they steeled their mind.
Berserker Hand
The Grisly Berserker entered in berserk mode this is why it is called Grisly Berserker it can freely enter and exit berserk mode.
Zirx remembers when he was grabbed by that hand his body explodes into pieces. Deltaflight can not dodge it in time he needs to use his life-saving skills.
He activates the skill that the shield provides.
The shield becomes bigger as the hand gets closer it was not fully blocked his hand starts to numb after receiving the Berserker Hand.
-473
A chill crawl from his back when he saw that the damage he gets from the bear. It was high enough to kill him if he doesn't have high defense, health, and a damage absorber he will surely die.
Zirx summoned the wolf again he was saving it. He let wolf tank again so Deltaflight can drink a health potion properly. Deltaflight immediately drinks an intermediate health potion his health back at 65% enough to last for the next few attack.
Now that the bear is busy with the wolf both of the archers fire their best skill to deal damage to the bear.
Fiery Fire Arrow
Twin Gorge Arrow

'Phew! I guess I can do damage now.'
...
20% health remaining.
...
5% health remaining. The bear grabs Deltaflight he was lifted he knew he would die so he used the skill that can be used. Bash! Defiling Thrust! That's the only skill he has left he looks at Zirx with mixed emotion and said. "How about compensating me after I revived?" He chuckles. "Heh! No worries I will."
Deltaflight explodes only Zirx and the two archers left. Rupturing Strike his stamina is almost depleted if he used Moonlight Burst Strike he would die from exhaustion due to not having any stamina left. He drinks a health potion he has only 30% health remaining he just needs to be careful so he would not die. He throws a knife an arrow follow it.
He took out a second magic scroll. Phantom Voyage and Alphablast was startled by Zirx. He just casually going to use another magic scroll that can be bought up to 10-20 silver each.
Fiery Missiles
Swoosh

Thud
The bear was hit by the missile it was a small missile the size of it was just like an arrow but it was fierce it directly hit the hear of the bear a clean hole was left until the corpse fall.
