Seeing the members of Quan Zhen Sect just stand there, casually chatting, Little One finally understood what Sanguine Wall was talking about before they entered the dungeon. So they weren't being modest at all…
What Little One couldn't understand was that why this bunch of OP players weren't ranked on the leaderboards of competitive squads.
Perhaps these experts didn't yearn for fame… Little One now had a very deep impression of the members of Quan Zhen Sect.
Other than the cave, the layout of the second floor of the Twilight Temple wasn't that different from the first floor. However, the monsters on the first floor were aggro type while those on the second floor were the roaming type.
<Controlled Believer of Sunset Light (LV 45) (Elite)>
HP: 100000
MP: 50000
Skills: [Flame of Sunset Light], [Energy Support]
<Puppet Defender of Sunset Light (LV 45) (Elite)>
HP: 150000
MP: 10000
Skills: [Charge], [Shield Bash]
<Fallen Archer of Sunset Light (LV 45) (Elite)>
HP 80000
MP: 10000
Skills: [Multishot], [Crippling Arrow]
The three monsters were a classic team of archers and warriors paired with the magician monster, Believer of Sunset Light. [Flame of Sunset Light] dealt a large amount of damage and [Energy Support] was a healing skill.
Defender of Sunset Light was a tank who could use [Charge] and [Shield Bash], making it a capable crowd controller with strong defences.
The Archer of Sunset Light was the main damage dealer who was equipped with the [Crippling Arrow] crowd control skill which could decrease one's speed.
These monsters were in groups of three, roaming the entire hall.
<System notification: Your party has triggered the dungeon quest "Release". Kill all monsters in the map. Quest reward: 15% completion
Background information: An evil force has taken control of the believers of the God of Sunset Light and enslaved their souls. They hope that one day someone will free them from this torture.
Although these monster teams appeared to be difficult to deal with but compared to the continuous barrage from the beetles from the first floor, these scattered monsters were much easier to fight.
Regardless how well the monster's team was, they were based on a bunch of algorithms, hence when faced with players who had an advantage in numbers and intelligence, they weren't in a better position at all.
Moreover, the weapons of the party members had the blessing of the God of Sunset Light which multiplied the damage they dealt to these monsters. Basically, they could eliminate a team of monsters in a couple of strikes.
A short while later, everyone had killed their way to the other end of the temple.
There was a giant throne with an old man in red robes waiting for them on it.
<Insane Pope of Sunset Light, Harriot (LV ???) (Gold Boss) (Elite)>
HP: 800000
MP: 500000
Skills: [Bloody Barrier], [Judgement of Sunset Light], [Blade of Sunset Light], [Slave Sacrifice]
Background information: The increasingly peaceful lives of men has eroded their belief. Disappointed, Harriot brought the believers out of the fallen land. He always thought that peace caused men to lose their respect towards God and fall into the trap of evil Gods - lured to become slaves.
After looking at the introduction to Harriot, everyone thought to themselves: "So this old guy was an extremist who became obsessed with his religious beliefs…"
At this point, the name and introduction of Harriot above its head was still green, which meant that it was an NPC who couldn't be attacked. Some trigger was required to initiate the scenario.
Once Fearless guided everyone to kill the last team of monsters, Harriot started to wake up.
"Why did you guys do that?"
Harriot suddenly shot up after awakening and asked in an imposing manner. However, this question came so quickly that everyone remained a little confused.
Thankfully Wang Yu's reply was still rather impressive as well: "For a quest…"
"Hmph, stupid non-believers, we have already left that filthy city but you still want to drive us off the edge?"
Fearless casually responded: "It's your god that sent me to release you from this bind."
"God?" Harriot was stunned for a moment before it laughed hysterically. "Ha ha ha, my god has already forsaken us a long time ago all thanks to you non-believers… Receive the rage of the gods!"
With this explosive shout, the indicator above Harriot's head turned red, and a dark red barrier enveloped the entire party after it waved its hand.
The dark red barrier was about the same as the [Dark Barrier] of Shamans - it was used to trap enemies. The only difference was that Harriot's barrier could only trap people but not root them on the spot. Moreover, Harriot was of a higher level, so there was no incantation required to cast the barrier. It was case instantly, hence no one was able to escape when Harriot suddenly used it.
An Elite boss was indeed a slippery eel - making a move while talking just wasn't professional at all.
"Receive judgement!" Harriot roared and the prayer beads in its hands kept turning. Right above Wang Yu and co, a dark red ball of energy appeared, and this energy ball grew larger and fell lower as Harriot manipulated it.
"D*mn, this skill is really too sick." Everyone complained.
Trapping one's enemies in a circle and throwing an AOE spell at them - no matter how well they could dodge, it was difficult to escape being killed by this intense strike.
Of course, there were always exceptions. Wang Yu and Ming Du had teleportation skills, so they directly jumped out of the barrier.
When Spring Halo saw that, he quickly shouted at the both of them: "Occupy him for three seconds, I have a plan!"
"Sure." Wang Yu nodded, and he used [Crushing Blow] to charge at Harriot.
Seeing Wang Yu rushing over, a red light flashed in Harriot's hands, and the left hand that did not hold onto any prayer beads drew out a blood red sword. It then swung the sword at Wang Yu.
"Eh? This guy is trained in both magic and martial arts?" Wang Yu was taken aback. He twisted his body to dodge Harriot's sword, kicking its face in the process.
This caused Harriot to fly into the air, only for a short while, but it was enough.
As its skill was disrupted, it lost the buff of "the power of judgement" and fell down.
Everyone inside the barrier had run to the borders long ago to dodge the energy attack. Soon, Spring Halo's spell was completed, releasing a soccer ball sized light ball from his left hand that slowly floated to the barrier. With a ripple, an opening was created in the barrier.
Sage's skill - [Holy Word]. It could nullify any barrier type spells, cooldown 50s, casting time 3s, cost 300MP.
This sort of feeling of being trapped was obviously rather uncomfortable. Hence, once Spring Halo created the hole, everyone rushed out of the barrier and angrily went into formation to launch a barrage of attacks at Harriot.
Initially, Harriot's martial arts didn't seem like much, but the sword of judgement turned out to be quite the bother. Every strike released sword qi, and the web of sword qi attacks left Wang Yu without any chance to retaliate.
Without showing any weaknesses, Wang Yu changed his weapon into the Universe Sword's short blade form and threw the blade sheath forward, hitting Harriot square on the face. Its sword of judgement paused for moment, which he took advantage of to stab it on the stomach.
At this point, the long range attacks from the rest also arrived in front of Harriot.
Facing all of this, the prayer beads shifted in Harriot's hands, enveloping itself in red light.
