“Ugh, it’s appeared…” Hearing Bachiya’s words, everyone looked at the red slime wiggling out of the lava. It was over 10 meters in diameter, and it was even darker red than the other slimes. Its surface looked like rubies while red liquid flowed around inside it. It was surprisingly beautiful. However, its eyes were red with fury. “…”
Lava Slime Boss – Kakalika (Rare – Boss): A slime that lives deep in volcanos. Extremely strong.
“Brave warriors, go!!” Bachiya shouted. A layer of red flame-like light surrounded everyone.
“Congratulations. You’ve received Bachiya’s Cheers. +50 fire resistance, reduces all fire damage taken by 10, +10 Constitution. Lasts for 10 minutes.”
ThornyRose stood in the middle, not far from where the boss was. Six tanks took position to her left and right and formed a wall. The rest scattered around the arena. “Give priority to using water magic! Hurry! Get in position!”
As Kakalika climbed up, it opened its mouth and a 2 meter large ball of fire shot out. It was extremely fast.
“Dodge!” ThornyRose quickly dived out of the way. She sensed the blazing heat from the large fireball as it passed by her. Some of the melee players behind her were hit and sent back to town.
At this time, Ye Cang and GreenDew’s tidal wave struck simultaneously. Kakalika was pushed back over two meters. Steam whistled as the water evaporated off its body, making it even more angry.
“Ranged attackers, attack! Melee and tanks, surround it!!” ThornyRose had the hunters attack while the boss was slightly weakened from the water attack. She quickly organized the melee players and charged.
Countless melee players struck the boss, while arrows rained down on it. The fight was extremely intense, and there was a steady stream of people being sent back to town. Kakalika began to breathe out fire to mow down the mob.
Lin Le swung his sword while circling the boss. He swung his blade happily as if he were playing around. The girls around him all had bitter faces, not daring to get close to him. They had to choose between being killed by his blade or burnt by the flames.
“Lele! Don’t swing so widely, give the people around you some space! Use vertical chops!!” ThornyRose wished Lele would just run. While he was waving around such a big sword, no one dared to approach 3 meters around him.
“Eeeh…” Lin Le changed his attack. Like a machine, he raised his sword up and down. He pouted unhappily, feeling bored.
The boss began to turn faster, and the flame began fluctuating in size. The biggest problem was that it didn’t look like it would stop anytime soon. They couldn’t break through it’s crystalline surface. Even Lin Le’s anti-cavalry sword was having trouble. When he struck, it would heal right back. People were still continuously dying. In just these short 20 seconds, more than half of them were gone. Especially the melee players.
ThornyRose felt helpless. How could they stop it!? It was immune to their stuns. It only stopped for a moment when tidal wave hit, but that spell had a cooldown of 30 seconds so it couldn’t be cast continuously. If this went on, there would be too many deaths. She recalled Lin Le had a strong control skill and contemplated letting him try it. But she figured it wouldn’t work. She then recalled he also had a skill where he could sacrifice gold for stats. 1 gold would give 8 Strength and it could have up to 2 stacks.
“Lele, try out handcart homerun! Sacrifice some gold! Swing it counterclockwise.” ThornyRose shouted.
“Mm!” Lin Le quickly took out and crushed two gold. He began to emit a gold light. He reached out with his two large metal gauntlets, and a handcart appeared in his hands. He grabbed it tightly and swung. “Lele Homerun!!”
Lele swung his handcart counterclockwise. Bang~!
Kakalika was knocked back 4 or 5 meters. It finally stopped its skill and became stunned. The members of Thorns and Roses watched amazed. That was too amazing! He almost knocked the boss flying away. That handcart… Too awesome!
…
Meanwhile, back in Really New Village. Little Ye Tian and FrozenCloud who had sold quite a few things were taking a walk and watching the sunset. Little Ye Tian was sitting in the handcart, smacking her shield while shouting out some some catchy rhymes. She was like a little child, her legs swinging happily.
FrozenCloud was behind her pushing the handcart. Seeing Little Ye Tian, she couldn’t help but smile. When she was small, her older sister had also pushed her on the swings and she’d smiled like that. Suddenly, the handcart she was pushing disappeared. Little Ye Tian fell and hit the ground. She began to shudder, and then angrily roared into the sky. “Damn Lele! Bullying me again!!”
FrozenCloud smiled bitterly and helped her up.
