Chapter 13 – Field Boss.

"Fourth person just died, only 1 player is remaining." – said May.

The entire group was running down on the grassy hill, towards the battlefield.

[Warning! You have entered field boss territory!]

[Field boss monster can now find you and attack you!]

[Warning! Field Bosses are stronger than regular bosses. Fighting it alone is not advised.]

"This is also a new thing, right?" – asked Forge.

"Yea! There wasn't anything like this in beta." – said Kitty.

"Last guy just died!"– said May.

As the last player, the group finally arrived at the area where boss was resending in.

[The field boss monster: Wild Wolf Pack Leader has noticed your presence.]

[Wild Wolf Pack Leader – Level 44 – Field Boss Monster] – [HP: 91%]

"Hey! Its barely lost any HP!" – said Hype.

"Don't panic and stick to the plan. Forge and Avalanche take the incitive to pull its agro. As soon as they do that everybody then start attacking it!" – said Quicy.

"Roger!" – said both Forge and Avalanche.

The wolf saw the group and beginned charging straight at them. The group as well was charging straight at the wolf, with Forge and Avalanche in front and everybody behind them.

Suddenly Avalanche detached from the group and beginned running ahead of the group, alone.

Moment later he and the boss itself came face to face.

"[Taunt] [Shield Block]!"

The giant wolf launched it claws at the blue orc player, but the attack was stopped by shield.

As soon as this happened, Forge rushed with his wings out towards them and hit the wolf with his hammer, landing a solid hit, but barely making boss HP bar move.

"Oh common! That was solid hit!" – said Forge after noticing boss monster HP barely changing from the hit.

After that the giant wolf tried attacking Forge, but its attack didn't do much damage to him as well.

[Beetle Armor]

[Passive] [Skill Level: 4/4]

[Increase user base [Physical Defense] and [Magic Defense] by 2.5%/5%/7.5%/(10%), also increases your negative status resistance by 2%3%/4%/(5%).]

(I don't have tank related active skills. But my passives and high defense armor will do the trick!)

(But this guy is quiet problematic. It's not like I'm not dealing damage or he have way too high defense. The bastard just have tons of HP.)

The wolf tried attacking again, but before it could do that, the massive amount of attack beginned hitting him ranging from magic to psychical attacks from multiple directions. Before wolf noticed, the entire group was spited up and beginned attacking it in different ways.

"Don't stop attacking! This guy is something like raid boss!" – said Quicy.

With massive amount of attacks the boss monster was dropping down, slow but steady rate.

[Wild Wolf Pack Leader – Level 44 – Field Boss Monster] – [HP: 80%]

[Wild Wolf Pack Leader has used: [Mighty Howl]!]

"?"

A loud howl could be heard spreading though the entire area.

[Party member Forge has been affected by [Mighty Howl].]

[Party member Avalanche has been affected by [Mighty Howl].]

[Party member Hype has been affected by [Mighty Howl].]

[Party member May has been affected by [Mighty Howl].]

[You have been affected by [Mighty Howl].]

[You have temporarily lost 20% of all of your stat points!]

(What the?! Can't move!? This must be the stun effect that Kitty told me about!)

Each person that was fighting against the wolf at the close range has been stunned, this gave the wolf monster the chance to strike, however instead of attacking it jumped on the cliff nearby and howled once again.

[Wild Wolf Pack Leader has used: [Pack Call]!]

"Guys! We got company!" – said Quicy after noticing many wolfs spawning from the different direction.

"Fuck!" – (I can move again, but the god dammed debuff still remains! The debuff lasts for 45 more seconds.) – though Avalanche.

"Incoming!"

[Wild Wolf – Level 44]

The players beginned fighting against the horde of the summoned wolfs.

"Use your AOEs! These bastards are weak but many!" – said Quicy.

"[Fire Ball]!"

"[Magic Explosion]!"

"[Power Shot]"

"A giant freaking hammer!" – said Forge while beginning spinning around.

"What?" – said entire group.

All the monster near the Forge beginned flying left and right into air.

"Huh, well that works." – said Kitty.

All of the remaining wolfs were dealt with shortly after and right after that, the boss monster jumped down from the cliff onto the battlefield once again.

"Don't waste your AOEs skills! He could summon the horde of wolfs again!" – said Quicy.

The battle itself reaped once again, with Forge and Avalanche taking hits while being healed from afar and others attacking the wolf again. After depleting boss monster HP to 60%, the phase with stun and summon would reaped once again and again after its HP drop to 40%.

"This is boring." – said Hype while killing the wolfs.

"What are you talking about this time?" – asked Kitty with annoyed look on her face.

"Well, I'm not saying it's easy. This guy can stun, have a AOE jump attack, then when he takes some damage, he jumps on the cliff and just summon bunch of wolves. It's quiet boring, we all are just repeating the thing over and over again."

"It was hard on the start and all and I can see why those guys kind of died easily to it. But after we get to know its pattern, the fight became bit "Meh". Not going lie." – said Hype.

"Hype. If this is going to raise any sort of death flag or something, I'm going to kill you." – said Forge.

After the last wolf has been dealt with the boss monster jumped once again on the battlefield, at first it seemed like the battle circle would repeat once more. However, from the boss monster body, red smoke begin to emit, before moments later its entire fur would turn bright red.

[Wild Wolf Pack Leader has gone on rampage!]

"Oh, what now?! Last time it was berserk and now rampage! What the heck is rampage status?!" – said Forge.

"Welp, time to kill Hype." – said Kitty and Forge.

"You can kill him later! For now, focus on dealing with him!" – said Quicy.

[Wild Wolf Pack Leader has used: [Wolf Rampage]!]

The giant wolf leaped towards Forge and attacked him. Forge tried counterattacking, but before he could do that the wolf already leaped towards Avalanche and then to the next person, repeating the process until everybody was once hit.

"Is everybody alright?!"

"Yea, that bastard took around 30% of my HP." – said May.

"[Lesser Area Heal]."

"Thanks."

"Okay, I think I agree now with killing Hype after that." – said Avalanche.

"Agree, but first kill that wolf!" – said Quicy.

The party quickly got their grip and beginned fighting against the wolf once again, but this time the fight was noticeable harder. The wolf attacks were now faster, making it harder to parry or block for Forge and Avalanche. It sometimes it also jumped into different areas and beginned attacking the player closed to it, sometimes it being the supp or range DPS, damaging them heavily.

[Forge] – [HP:29%]

"Could use a heal about now!"

"[Lesser Heal]!"

"Thanks."

"Guys, I'm running out of MP potions!" – said Try.

(We can't suffer any more damage.) – though Quicy.

(There is a chance he will do that annoying bouncing attack again and that is the most dangerous.)

(However, it will be no longer a threat if you know how to deal with it.) – though Quicy.

[Wild Wolf Pack Leader has used: [Wolf Rampage]!]

"Guys! Don't stick together! Get away from each other as fast as possible!" – ordered Quicy.

"What?" – said Forge.

"JUST DO IT!"

The party fallowed Quicy order and spitted off, however moment later the wolf would begin its rampage once again, starting off from Avalanche, then jumping to Forge, however after that it didn't jumped at any other person.

(What the? Did she realized boss pattern after seeing it once?) – though Forge.

"Thanks for finding out the boss pattern, BUT CAN SOMBODY HELP ME! HE IS FOCUSING ALL OF HIS ATTACKS ONLY ON ME NOW!" -said Forge while getting beaten up by the wolf.

The battle between the wolf and party would continue, with wolf monster sometimes showing new attack patterns, however after being seen one or two times by Quicy, she then instructed her teammates to do move or do specific thing, countering the wolf attack pattern.

[Wild Wolf Pack Leader has been slain!]

[Wild Wolf Pack Leader will respawn after 36 hours.]

[You have received rewards for the contributing in defeating Wild Wolf Pack Leader.]

"F-finally! That bastard died." – said Avalanche while falling on the ground.

"That was literally a raid boss fight! Fuck me! I literally I'm out of MP and MP potions. We did not came prepared enough for this!" – said Try.

"Well, at least we got him. But next time we need more supports and tanks or something, this was not good idea going in with just 8 people." – said Kitty.

"Anyway, did you got the stuff too?"

"Yea."

"Same."

[Field Boss - Wild Wolf Pack Leader Chest]

[You have received bonus chest for defeating the boss monster with 40 or less party members.]

[You have received bonus chest for defeating the boss monster with 20 or less party members.]

"I got 3 of those."

"Same here."

"So there was a bonus at the end. That's at least good to know." – said Kitty.

"Maybe, anyway lets rest a bit, before- "– before Quicy could finish her sentence, her shoulder was grabbed by Forge.

"?"

"We need to talk. Two of us. Now."
