The shells chaotically rained down from above and the players would have to return fire using the cannons in this situation or they would be constantly bombarded with attacks.

If they had not killed the four elite monsters in the first stage, they would fly up into the sky and bombard the players just like the boss as well...

The Metal Skin Bird’s bombardment was too overwhelming. No matter how much Pretty Good Mood shouted, this stage was so much more ridiculous than Llamasden’s final stage as seven more people had perished after him.

The Metal Skin Bird had a max HP of 2,000,000, but when its HP started to deplete, it exploded in the sky.

The Dwarf King’s HP had been fully restored back to 10,000,000. It ejected out of the Metal Skin Bird with a parachute-like item in its hand as it glided down back onto the ground.

“Hit it. Hit it with all you have!” Pretty Good Mood immediately commanded the party to attack as soon as he was Battle Resurrected back into combat.

The parachute had to be destroyed as this would allow one to deplete the boss’s HP due to falling damage. As the boss touched ground, he would then run towards the Metal Skin Bird, fixing it so that it could fly up into the sky once again. This process would repeat until everyone was exhausted.

This was where Li Yi’s role came in once again.

His ATK range was 30 yards further compared to the normal Archers. The moment the Dwarf King had ejected with his parachute, Li Yi started to shoot it and the parachute was destroyed with just 5 arrows.

“Beautifully done!”

The Dwarf King kicked his short legs and screamed as he fell to the ground.

“Thud!”

The Dwarf King’s head was buried into the ground as the HP that was shown on his head immediately reduced by 4,000,000.

“Everyone release your main skills and give it all you got!”

“Violent Bear’s Protection!”

Li Yi was the first one to rush up and attack the Dwarf King with all his might.

Since the Dwarf King’s head was stuck in the ground, he was in a state where he could not attack. Now, this would determine how difficult the third stage would be based on how much HP they could chip off.

Everyone risked their lives as they used all their skills. The Dwarf King’s HP dropped swiftly as about 1,000,000 HP was reduced in a blink of an eye. After that, it was left with about 4,120,000 HP as he pulled his head out from the ground.

They had managed to take off 2,000,000 HP and Pretty Good Mood praised his team endlessly. One had to know that the party he led was only able to deal about 1,500,000 HP from all the previous trials. How could he keep his excitement, especially since he was able to deal 500,000 more HP than the previous attempts?

They had successfully entered stage 3!

“Damn it. Damn it all. I was almost killed by you lower beings. It seems like I have to fight all of you seriously now. Come on out Dardanelle the modified Ironclad Tyrannosaurus Mount.”

As the Dwarf King whistled, an Ironclad Tyrannosaurus Mount came running towards them from the horizon. Then, the Dwarf King jumped up onto it.

The Dwarf was riding a small tyrannosaurus as he waved his warhammer about freely.

Stage three was very difficult to deal with as the Iron Clad Tyrannosaurus Mount was incredibly fast. Not to mention that the Dwarf King had incredibly high damage output as well. So much so that the main tanks would even need to use Block to tank it.

According to Pretty Good Mood’s strategy, all 10 main tanks would have to go to the frontline and surround the Dwarf King, forcing him to be immobile.

Li Yi placed the Violent Bear King on passive as it would not be able to tank the Dwarf King’s continuous hit.

“Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!”

The main tank, Set Fire When There’s Wind blocked the four attacks without breaking a sweat.

The key main tank was no other than Set Fire When There’s Wind when they challenged Llamasden. However, he had no choice but to be placed on the second line when the Holy Shield Paladin Golden Gun Cannot Fall was recruited into the Little Drunk Cat due to having lesser HP than the Paladin.

“Damn it. Damn it all. Do you really think you can block Shakra off just like that? In your dreams!”

The Dwarf King raged as he knocked the main tanks back with his warhammer. He managed to get out from the encirclement.

“Surround him quickly!”

All 10 main tanks rushed up immediately but they were too late. The Ironclad Tyrannosaurus Mount was too quick as it had already run away.

“Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!”

Another four party members died from the four hit combo attack. Chen Yang was unlucky as he was one of them.

“Damn it. Damn it all. This flesh is too old and it can no longer utilize Shakra’s full potential.”

As the Dwarf King panted, the main tanks rushed up to him and surrounded him once more.

They continued the fight as no main tanks and healers had died!

The main tanks were all very skilled as each and every one of them was able to block the Dwarf’s brutal attacks.

The Dwarf King’s body turned redder as his HP decreased, signaling that he was about to go berserk.

The Dwarf King would go berserk in the third stage. It was unavoidable and they could only push through it!

This stage was coined as a nightmare as countless of guilds had perished under the berserked Dwarf King.

The Dwarf King’s body would be painted in red from head to toe and with each of his warhammer strike, he would deal at least 3000 damage. The players would lose at least 1000 HP from four consecutive attacks even if they blocked it.

What was even more ridiculous was that the time gap between these attacks was 2 seconds apart. Anyone would be floored if they were to take eight hits at one go.

Pretty Good Mood’s solution to this problem was to spread out the damage!

As one main tank took on four hits from the warhammer, the other main tank would follow up to take on the remaining four hits. They would rinse and repeat until it was exhausted.

As the Dwarf King’s HP was down to 2,000,000 HP, 5 out of 10 main tanks had already died. Their defensive encirclement was getting weaker by the second.

“Damn it. Damn it all. This flesh is getting weaker.”

The Dwarf King roared as it slammed its warhammer continuously, busting out from the encirclement.

Although the Tyrannosaurus Rex, which was covered in iron armors creaked as it moved, its movement was immensely quick. The Dwarf King’s aggro was totally out of control and it was impossible to shift the aggro even with Mislead or Shift Blame.

As the encirclement strategy was no longer viable, Pretty Good Mood immediately shifted his plan. “Activate Cheetah’s Protection!”

Li Yi screamed as he shifted his War Bear’s Protection aura to Cheetah’s Protection.

Cheetah’s Protection: [Increased the party’s movement SPD by 30%. If the players takes damage in this state, they would be stunned. Lasts for 2-10 seconds.]

The entire party’s movement SPD was boosted and this made it difficult for the Dwarf King to catch up to them. They were fortunate that the boss did now know any charging skills, or else they would be in a pinch.

All the members in this party were cherry-picked by Li Yi. Without exception, all of them were famous players at the end of the game. Players such as Little Elf from the Magical Realm, Wu Old Wolf, Gold Gun cannot Fall, and Set Fire When There’s Wind were able to survive on their own. Although their current skills and equipment were no match compared to their past life, all gold would eventually shine if they were polished over time.

Gold Gun Cannot Fall and Set Fire When There’s Wind charged towards the boss without hesitation to intercept the Dwarf King as they were at risk of being stunned.

Li Yi immediately deactivated the Cheetah’s Protection and switched to Spirit Ape’s Protection so that the party’s EVA could be increased.

“Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!”

[Miss!]

[-1600!]

[-123]

[-212]

Among these four hits, one of them missed and the other one was a critical hit. The remaining two strikes were blocked off.

Then, the remaining main tanks moved forward and surrounded the Dwarf King once more.

As 5 main tanks surrounded it, they had to move about in circles and it was much more demanding as compared to having 10 of them. Fortunately, they were able to circle the Dwarf King due to their amazing operational skill.

Cheetah’s Protection, Spirit Ape’s Protection, Breath of the Wind, Holy Light Protection. All sorts of skills were pushed to their limits. None of them made any mistake and all players were fueled with adrenaline.

To these players, they no longer cared about the equipment the boss would drop nor how the loots would be distributed. All they wanted to do right now was to kill and conquer the boss that stood in front of them!

Great friendship did not exist from the very beginning but it was gained through countless of fighting alongside each other!

When a party managed to kill a boss where the others had failed to over and over again, the incomparable pride would gradually sip into their body. When that happened, the name of the party was no longer just a name but a symbol of pride and honor.

Similar to the Platinum Hand, their members were still proud of their past achievements even though they had disbanded for as long as seven years. Why was that so? This was because they could not put aside the experience of fighting alongside each other. They could not forget the moments and excitement when they battled together!

“Be careful!”

Qing Pingle shouted as he pushed away a healer. Then, he laid down on the ground as he took two hits from the Dwarf King.

As the Dwarf King had gone full berserk, its DMG was even more powerful, so much so that even the main tanks would need to use Shield Wall to block the incoming attacks.

“Violent Bear’s Protection!”

Li Yi squirmed near the Dwarf King as he activated the special skill from the Fiery Boots to pull Fire Ice away, tanking the attack with his own body.

As Li Yi activated the Violent Bear’s Protection, he was able to surpass the main tanks for as long as 20 seconds. He took eight hits from the Dwarf King and with the help of the healers, his HP had only dropped by about two thirds.

4500+1100=5600 HP. He was a super tank!

Li Yi seemed to have angered the Dwarf King as the latter’s aggro was locked on to Li Yi. It stopped running about chaotically and started chasing after Li Yi instead. He attacked Li Yi to the point where it felt like it would not stop until Li Yi was dead.

20 seconds was more than enough.

Li Yi retreated while he slashed at the Dwarf King with the Vile Tongue Stake. Although the Dwarf King’s level was 41, which was outside of the Vile Tongue Stake’s poison effect, there was still a low probability of it being poisoned.

The Dwarf King’s HP was reduced down to 1,000,000 before the Violent Bear’s Protection ended and it had entered into its last stage!

“Damn it. Damn it all. You’ve angered Shakra and must be punished by death!”

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Dwarf King’s flesh started to disintegrate and the Iron Clad Tyranasaurus Mount Dardanelle had run away. The Fire Elf Shakra which was hidden within the flesh had started to surface.

Shakra was a fire element that was covered in fire from head to toe. It had existed for a very long amount of time, much longer than the Fire Devil Ivrit. According to the lore, he was personally created and destroyed by the God of Fire. He was then resurrected when Ivrit appeared.

“Lower beings. Feel the might of the Superior Fire Elf, Shakra!”

Shakra’s body turned into countless Fire Swords as it hurled towards the party members.

They had finally entered the final stage!
