Capítulo 15: Chapter 15
Boom! Boom!
Fireballs the size of human heads, burning with black flame, fell towards the Hobgoblins.
Hobgoblins could only cry, as they couldn't retaliate. Those who tried to run away were blocked by the undead Hobgoblins and were beaten to death.
Some Hobgoblins were dealt with by the four people.
Only Aldrich was humming, looking at the battle with a grin on his face. 'More Undeads for me.' As he could collect more and more C-rank undead, he was sure he could beat the dungeon very fast.
[Undead Shaman Hobgoblin]
[Trait: Undead]
[Species: Great Goblin]
[Title: Demonic Shaman]
[Mana: 7500/7500]
[Skill: (Demonic Fireball), (Whip of Curse), (Strong Barrier)]
[Demonic Fireball: The fireball burns demonic energy as its fuel. Those who get damaged by the Fireball will be cursed. Life energy will be absorbed 5% per minute. Consume 100 mana per cast, 20 mana to maintain the flame and not let it extinguish. (If the fire is extinguished, the curse will end.)]
[Whip of Curse: Getting hit by this whip absorbs 20% mana from the enemy. If this whip is blocked by a barrier or other defense, the barrier will explode and any defense will fail against its strike. Consume 300 mana per cast.]
[Strong Barrier: Creates a barrier that can absorb any attack. Consumes 100 mana per cast, and 50 mana per 30 seconds to continue the barrier.]
The skills were pretty good and consumed very little mana. Aldrich was delighted when he saw this.
Time continued to fly.
While everyone was busy dealing with hobgoblins and shaman hobgoblins, Aldrich was sitting on the ground. He didn't take the dungeon seriously.
But others didn't complain, as his undead were very useful against enemies. Whether it be distraction, taking damage, or supporting, they could do it all.
So, even after dealing with hundreds of enemies, tens of Shamans, and countless sneak attacks, there were no casualties. No one was even injured.
It was a historic moment for three people who cleared the dungeon every week to reach the boss room with no casualties and injuries.
"Phew. We arrived." Roland looked at the door and gulped.
"We can do this." Arthan was filled with fighting spirit.
"Don't be overconfident. We know how this goes, right." Arthur warned.
Artha was silent, Aldrich didn't bother to comment while his undead stood in front and opened the door.
10 Shaman Hobgoblins, 50 Hobgoblins, and a gigantic Hobgoblin with a battleaxe, whip, and dual swords were in this room.
The Gigantic Hobgoblin towered at 10m, had four arms, five eyes, and very dark green skin, its appearance looked like it came straight from a child's nightmare.
"Man, this is rough like always," Roland commented with a sigh.
"Let's go. Aldrich, you handle every minor enemy. We will deal with the boss."
Aldrich nodded.
Swish!
Artha rushed with great speed. Roland charged ahead, followed by Arthan and Arthur.
The three of them nodded at each other as if they had a plan in their mind.
Aldrich's 10 Undeads, composed of 5 Shaman Hobgoblins and 5 Hobgoblins, charged at the army of Hobgoblins supported by Shaman Hobgoblins.
"If only I was here alone…" Aldrich was excited to deal with this dungeon again and collect that humongous Hobgoblin as his servant.
The undead fought with the Hobgoblins. Undead Shaman Hobgoblins struck with their magic.
Whip lashes on the hobgoblins and fireballs exploded. The clubs wielded by the hobgoblins battered the weakened Hobgoblins every second.
Shaman Hobgoblins were useless. Their fireballs damaged the undead, but the curse didn't affect them.
The whip broke bones, but the curse... Nah, it didn't work.
As one undead crumbled, three rose. The whole area was bombarded with different magic by both undead Shaman and Shamans.
The most harmed ones in this magical battle were the ordinary Hobgoblins who were cursed. Their life was slowly sucked away, and their energy too. They became weaker and weaker.
But undead Hobgoblins became more energetic as the curse activated on them. The curse worked in total opposite.
With each curse, they would become stronger. Because they were undead with no mana, life couldn't be absorbed and neither mana.
But the demonic energy in them spreads strength in their bones. The Hobgoblins were killed with ease in under 5 minutes.
Only the Shamans were left. They became desperate and bombarded the area with countless fireballs.
The barrier reformed and blocked the fireballs. But as the explosions subsided, the barrier opened.
The flames were weak as they were only there to curse the enemy. So the undead weren't affected by them.
The Shaman Hobgoblins looked terrified. Fireballs fell on them. Their barrier shook with each explosion.
That wasn't all, they couldn't open the barrier. If they did that, the flame would spread and curse them.
They were also living, not undead, and also had mana. Their mana and life would be consumed if they were cursed.
As the Undead Hobgoblins reached the Shamans and hit their clubs at the barrier, along with the whip that was continuously hitting the barrier, cracks spread on them.
The barrier broke… And the Shamans who had no experience head-on were massacred with ease.
All the cores fell from enemies were collected by Aldrich. He placed them all in his storage ring.
He also stored undeads to maintain the number 10.
Undead Shaman Hobgoblins moved to fight with the boss monster. Aldrich didn't move and continued to watch the battle.
---
**Mighty Unique Shield**
A peak D-rank skill. Its defensive power can even block C-rank attacks. However, the one whose attack needs to be blocked is a peak C-rank monster.
His shield can't withstand the attack. But his intention wasn't to block it.
Roland threw the shield at the boss. Its size expanded. This was due to the special effect of the shield, which could increase or decrease its size by ten times.
Clang!
The shield collided with the axe. The shield fell down. Roland jumped and grabbed it. The boss monster stared at Roland and struck its whip.
Roland jumped back, dodging the attack. But immediately afterward, the sword landed on him.
He blocked it with his shield. His arms nearly broke. He pulled back the shield and fell back.
At this time, Arthan used his peak D-rank skill. "One with the Sword."
His figure emitted magical energy. He, like a bullet, flew to the boss monster. He stabbed the sword into the legs of the boss monster.
Stab!!
The sword pierced it and created a small hole in it!
The boss monster screamed and fell on its knees. Artha also cast her D-rank skill, Ultimate Penetration, stabbed at the back of the boss monster.
Blood gushed out. The face of the boss monster darkened.
**Mighty Spear Stab!**
The spear created a huge hole in its chest. The monster roared!
Shockwaves pushed all four of them back. Blood trailed its body. And it threw the dual sword at them.
The sword was so fast that they could barely avoid it.
"We need to do this again."
"Yeah."
They had a smile on their faces. Drinking mana potion, they charged at the monster again.
This time, Undead Shaman Hobgoblins appeared and cast skills.
Whip and fireball descended at the boss monster. 10 Undead Shaman Hobgoblins utilized their skills simultaneously.
One after another…
Life and mana were sucked out from the boss monster.
Due to the injury, the boss monster couldn't stand and ran away.
It roared continuously and threw all its weapons. All of them were blocked with ease.
Unless the boss monster utilized its strength and struck at them, the barrier won't break.
Cursed!
The boss monster was cursed. A single shaman can't stack the curse effect, but multiple of them could.
The curse the boss monster was facing was multiplied by 10.
Although the life should be sucked out 50% and mana 200%, the boss monster endured the attacks and became weaker.
After 20 strikes… the boss monster fell.
Easy!
It was so easy that the four members were stunned.
Gasp! Gulp!
They gasped for breath and gulped down their Slavia. It was so awesome.
Although the boss monster was killed with their help, they couldn't help but think how fast the boss monster was killed.
Even after its leg injury, it would have taken more than 10 minutes of combined attacks for them to kill it. The undead killed the boss monster in mere 2 minutes.
The dungeon was cleared. It held the fastest record in the history of mere 5 hours. The closest record to it was 7 hours. The dungeon was defeated 2 hours early!
'This is simply outrageous!' Arthur roared in his heart. 'If the number of undead increases, won't he simply be invincible in the dungeon?' Arthur sighed. 'He really needs to be killed.' Arthur was determined to kill him.
As they exited the dungeon, Roland and Arthan came to Aldrich.
"Wow! That was awesome, Aldrich. Without your help, it would have taken more time and potions," Roland wrapped his arms around Aldrich.
"Even I couldn't help but be amazed by you. Your skill is really awesome," Arthan also praised him.
Arthur came towards him. His undead disappeared the moment they exited the Dungeon, so Aldrich was defenseless.
"Awesome," Arthur only said this.
Aldrich didn't care and walked ahead. But right at this moment, Arthur took action and stabbed his spear into Aldrich's back.
It was so sudden, nobody reacted. Aldrich's back arched and he looked behind. "You?"
"You need to be killed!" Arthur smiled.
The sneak attack was successful, or so it thought.
But, right at that moment, Aldrich's body swayed. His figure disappeared.
"I knew something like this would happen.. Thankfully, I had bought a D-rank skill, Illusion. Although this skill doesn't work on monsters, it works on humans," Aldrich was far away from him.
"You?" Arthur frowned. "But still, no one can save you."
Roland and Arthan charged at Aldrich.
"Brother!" Artha was stunned. She didn't know something like this would happen.
She didn't understand why they were attacking Aldrich, who had great potential. She rushed at them.
"Brother, why are you doing this?!" She appeared before Aldrich and faced the two of them.
"O my sister," Arthan smiled. "Who wouldn't be tempted to get millions of coins and enhanced C-rank equipment," Arthan said.
"Even I was tempted," Roland, despite his caring attitude a bit ago, looked evil.
"No wonder we can't trust humans. Everyone is greedy after all," Aldrich sighed.
But there was no emotion on his face. He looked cold. He sneered. "But only you three are no match for me."
"Really, let's see what you are capable of then!" Arthur arrived.
Three Supers versus Two Supers. A match of life and death began.
