The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 750  Rampage In The Dungeon

Karl and Ophelia finished off the last few Ogres on their side of the path while Dana relaxed on the shoulder of one of her Golems, then headed to where the others were already waiting at the boss platform.

The first boss was a simple Ogre Lord, a Monarch Rank boss, but twice the size of an average Ogre Lord, standing seven metres tall.

If it wasnʼt for that distinctively ugly face, Karl would have thought that it was a Giant.

”How are we going to do this? Do you want to swarm it? Perhaps let the beasts stretch their legs?” Karl asked.

Rae nodded her head happily in spider form and clicked her mandibles. She hadnʼt gotten to stab anything for most of a week now, and she wouldnʼt mind getting a boss monster all to herself.

Plus, with the Leafa Golem active, as she had named Karlʼs Epic Guard, She had Void Body active, for nearly instant regeneration.

Ophelia transformed back to a Werebear and gestured to the waiting group of summons. ”Why donʼt you let Rae and the bodyguards go at it? They need practice working together in battle if weʼre going to travel the wilderness here anyhow.”

That was all the recommendation that Rae needed, and she vanished from her spot with [Night Haunter], or perhaps [Shadow Step], as both allowed instant movement over that distance.

She had activated [Vibrating Blade] on her limbs, a skill she had learned from Overlord Niall, and systematically began to butcher the Ogre Lord.

Raeʼs Golems were firing spears at its face for the first few seconds to distract, until the Bodyguards took over the distraction job.

The Guardian, equipped with the Haint Claw, leapt into battle, aiming for the backs of the knees and the insides of the elbows to cripple the boss, which was already in a pathetic state as the three spiders brutalized its body.

Remi laughed and held back her bodyguards. They werenʼt needed, and the boss was only going to last a few minutes anyhow.

The Ogre Lord surged with power, activating some sort of skill, then suddenly stopped as the power vanished without a trace.

Cara did her best to look innocent, while Lotus laughed at the smug Void Badger.

[Nullify] was just ridiculously overpowered in a Dungeon.

One of the Golems was caught and smashed on the ground, but a strike from Raeʼs forelimb broke the Ogre Lordʼs grasp, and the golem flitted away for the few seconds it took for [Void Body] to regenerate the damage.

Tessa turned to Karl and shook her head. ”That skill sharing is just too overpowered. When you said that the Epic Guard shares its healing and regeneration abilities, I didnʼt think that it was something like that. When we saw it on Dana, it was a shock, but seeing it in effect on the already overpowered Rae, itʼs just unfair to the boss.”

Karl chuckled. ”It really is, isnʼt it. Plus, with Cara interrupting all his attempts to use larger skills, he really does look pathetic.

Heʼs getting some hits in, but this is closer to a massacre than a fight. Itʼs surprising how much damage he can take, though. I would have expected Raeʼs blades to sink deeper with all the stacked damage from [Rampage] and her skills.”

Remi turned to Karl. {Why are we waiting, though. I just realized, we can use an area ability to just bring everything to us, so we can fight it all at once.}

She still spoke serpent, but for everyone else, the System was happy to translate.

”As much as that sounds like a terrible idea, I would kind of like to see what happens.” Ophelia agreed.

Remi poked Lotus. {We will need the Lotus Tree. Hawk and I will pull everything else in the dungeon to us.}

Lotus didnʼt really understand, but when she transformed, Hawk perched in her branches, and that felt like a new form of head massage.

Both casting type beasts activated their area spells. For Remi, that was [Apocalypse], while Hawk went for multiple castings of [Hellstorm] to gather groups on the pathways and keep them clustered in the fire.

Nearly a hundred Ogres were rushing their way through the flaming Blizzard while being pelted by Meteors and scorched by [Hellstorm] vortexes.

The swamp land was beginning to boil, and the air was thick with steam.

Tessa shook her head in dismay as sweat rolled down her face.

”This might have been a bad idea just on principle. If they keep it up much longer, weʼre going to have to retreat.” She reminded the group.

Karl shook his head. ”Void Body is being shared. You wonʼt take damage from the steam, it will just be exceedingly uncomfortable.”

However, as the two beastsʼ mana levels began to deplete, the dungeon monsters began to fall. One after another, they succumbed to the spells, leaving only two large Ogres in heavy armour slowly charging across the dungeon.

Karl began to fire arrows into them, using [Poison Arrow] to add stacks to [Rampage], and whittle down the life of the bosses even further.

The poison also had a slowing and paralytic effect on them, bringing the mighty charge to a stumbling gait. They were also now being directly targeted with Meteors from [Apocalypse], as the only monsters in the targeted area.

{Skill Activation: Skill Master 4} Hawk has improved [Ghostfire Body] to Overlord Rank

{Skill Activation: Skill Master 4} Hawk has improved [Hellstorm] to Overlord Rank

”Good work, buddy.” Karl congratulated him, then realized that nobody else could see the notice.

”Hawk upgraded his Ghostfire Body and Hellstorm to Overlord Rank. First of the team to improve a skill to Overlord with Skill Master. Now that we have a winner, I wonder who will be next? I get the feeling that some of them are close.” Karl explained.

The Upgraded flames were tearing through the bosses, while Hawk was treating [Flame Bolt] as a machine gun, firing multiple shots every second, and letting the stacked damage caused by [Rampage] turn the skill into something deadly.

The first boss died with a pained roar, and the Summons, along with Rae, were instantly on the remaining two.

This time, Remi let her Bodyguards go play, and within seconds the last two Ogres were dead, and Rae was mentally complaining that the bodies couldnʼt be taken for her pile.

”Anything good by the Bosses?” Karl called.

Rae shook her head, as the bodies were already vanishing. But the Epic Guard came over with an armload of random items, and one large shining shield.

{Shield of Indomitable Defence} Epic Grade Shield. Reduces damage taken by 12% of armour rating. Adds 210 strength to the user.

It was large, shiny, and while it was lacking in details, it was an Epic Grade item and Monarch Rank. That was the best possible item level you could get from the Dungeon, as far as Karl knew. Most of what came out was Royal Rank, and certainly not Epic.

”Well, who wants it?” Karl asked, already knowing the answer.

Thor had a custom one made for decoration by Rae, and he fought in Cerro form as much as possible. So, the shield would go to Tessa, who would normally fight with a long spear from his back.

Now, they were both tanky. It was a good day, Thor decided.
