Chapter 1103: Bonus Boss

For a moment, Quinn thought that they had finished the special event, as no more Elementals were coming.

Then, the building at the edge of the boss fight area began to shake. Stone by stone, it rearranged itself into a massive Earth Elemental boss and stomped toward the fight.

Ophelia huffed and stomped her foot, using [Gravity Slam] to slow the boss and let the others know that she would take the lead Tank role against this oversized opponent.

She was the only one other than Nachtia who was close to its size, unable to be stepped on or knocked over.

The boss rumbled, a sound like stone grating across stone, and Ophelia roared as she charged, claws clashing against stone clubs as the titanic combatants engaged.

“Gods above, that is terrifying.” Quinn muttered as he joined the attack.

On four feet, Ophelia was twice the warrior’s height. Standing upright to engage with the Elemental, she was simply enormous.

Ophelia grappled with the giant Elemental, who wrapped her form in a massive hug, smashing its clubs into her back as she tore apart its sides with her claws. She twisted as she sidestepped, turning the boss away from the group, so that everyone else was attacking its back.

The boss twisted its wrists and got the clubs between them to push Ophelia away for a moment, then the two collided again, shaking the ground under them.

And not just because Ophelia was using [Gravity Slam] on her attacks.

The group was hacking large chunks out of the Elemental’s back, faster than the stone was reforming. But the healers could see that even with the damage reduction of [Consecrated Ground], Ophelia was slowly losing health.

Eventually, she would have to switch out with someone. But there was nobody who could take her place, the boss could just step over them.

Or on them, as had happened to one unfortunate warrior.

He had survived, but judging by the amount of damage and blood, it was not a pleasant experience.

Finally, an attack made one of the boss’s legs crumble, which effectively ended its mobility and let Ophelia retreat for a few seconds to regenerate. It was still hopping after her, but now she could just drag it around in front of her without taking too much direct damage.

The rest of the melee fighters followed, circling around the mages in the middle.

It looked ridiculous, but it appeared to be an effective tactic to deal with the boss. Quinn made a mental note to do that next time, if they happened to trigger this special event again in the future.

The first boss had focused entirely on Dana’s Golems, so it was possible that she could trigger it on most visits if it was a repeatable event.

With a crashing of stones, the boss collapsed, revealing a large glowing orb in the air above its corpse.

{Event Completed. Please select rewards.} Appeared in everyone’s System interface.

{Uncommon Class Advancement Token}

{Grade 3 Skill Book}

{25 Skill Points}

{Amulet of Elemental Protection}

The whole group stared at the notices. Did they get to choose individually? Was this one reward for the whole group? And in a few cases, ’what are skill points?’

The Uncommon Class advancement held no real appeal to Dana and the members of the Darklight Host. They all had Uncommon or Rare Classes already. However, they could tell that the rest of the group was tempted.

So, if it gave the same thing to everyone, they would hold on to it, and see if they could pass it off to someone else for a nice bit of profit.

It didn’t say that they couldn’t.

Dana noticed as the first few eyes glazed over, indicating that the member was in the Class Selection menu.

“If you’re picking the token, and plan to use it immediately, do it now. We will guard you. I already have a Rare Class, I will pick a different reward.” She informed the group.

The chances of Dungeon mobs moving to attack them in an area that they had cleared was low, but never zero.

That caused all but one of the group members, other than the Darklight Host members, to vacantly stare at nothing as they picked a new class.

“I’ve got an advanced class. I’m going to take the Skill Points.” The Blood Knight explained.

Dana made her selection, and then smirked as she saw the outcome.

{Grade 3 Skill Book Granted} [Golem Duplication]

Her first instinct was to use it, but she put it in her inventory instead.

If she gave the skill to Karl, she could let him learn it, and then make him make her a copy and teach her the skill. That way, she got the skill, got to keep the book, and Sister Rae would have a small army of Golems.

The Spider would be overjoyed if that applied to her Undead as well.

The skill wasn’t clear if it was only [Golem] titled spells that it duplicated, or all summons. But she had two types of Golems, plus her Epic Guard, so she would find out soon enough.

Lotus giggled as she made her selection, and Dana rolled her eyes as she realized that the Nature Priestess’s healing Totems had turned into four dragonfly winged Pixies that were waving little wands around and sprinkling dust everywhere, which vanished a few seconds later.

“Now they last until I dismiss them, and the healing doubled.” Lotus explained.

Tessa patted her diminutive friend on the head and smiled. “I upgraded Consecrated Ground to level 3 directly. Same spell, greater effects.”

Nachtia turned back into a human and shrugged. “I took the skill points. I’ve only got a few of my class skills. I need to get the rest, and I didn’t start out with Karl to get all the bonus points that all of you did.”

Ophelia chuckled. “I got a skill book of [Spell Lock]. It prevents casting of the element of their next ability for ten seconds if the hit lands. It should be pretty useful against bosses, even though it’s got a long cooldown timer on it.”

Dana laughed. “So, you don’t get to do the Cara and just deny them all their abilities? Shame that. But I think that this suits your personality better.”
