Is this really a Game?!

Chapter 1044: The Powerful Boss

The monster suddenly roared as the ice that had covered its legs cracked and broke in a mere instant.

The powerful shockwave that the roar produced caused Reign and the others to be blown away, using their mana and powers merely to stay near the monster. The area itself was shaking from how powerful the roar was, and some rocks even fell on the ground from the ceiling.

"Tch, all of that, and we barely managed to injure it, we just made it angry." Reign stated as he stared at the giant monster that was now staring at them with an angry face.

"Guys, do you hear that?" Beast asked as Reign and the others grimaced, the trembling of the ground and the roars that were coming from a distance all something they felt and heard.

"It called for backup, huh?" Shadow asked with a slightly worried expression as Reign sighed.

"For now, be calm, and don't let the bastard get to you, we will come up with a plan after we see just how many monsters it has called, as well as how powerful they are."

"This is a good opportunity to not only gain a ton of exp, but to also get some items from this bastard, I am certain we will gain quite a bit from him." Reign said as he pointed his sword at the behemoth that suddenly started running toward them.

"For now, don't go all out, don't use the marks, only after the reinforcements arrive!" Wolf said as he jumped high up before twisting his body and touching the ceiling with his feet. He then bent his knees before kicking off the ceiling and crashing down at the behemoth as flames enveloped his body and sword.

The monster quickly took notice of him and jumped, aiming to swat him from the air like a fly.

"Let's see if you are able to do so!" Wolf shouted as he slashed down at the monster's giant claw, the sword and claw colliding and sparks being produced as Wolf's arms bulged from how much power he was channeling through them.

Right beneath the monster, however, Shadow appeared.

He quickly used his daggers to climb up the monster's body while using his darkness to try and slow the claw down and make it weaker in order to help Wolf out before jumping on the back of the behemoth and attempting to stab it in the back of the neck.

His daggers merely bounced off the neck, however, and did nothing but leave two thin white dots on the strong scales of the monster.

"Tch, thick armor, huh?" Shadow said before channeling more of his darkness into his daggers and attempting to stab again, only for the behemoth to suddenly turn his head 180 degrees and open his mouth in an attempt to bite Shadow whose eyes widened as he quickly teleported away, saving his life.

"Don't you dare look away from me!" Wolf shouted in anger as he suddenly pulled himself up by relying on his sword which was still locked in a stalemate with the claw. He let go of the sword, allowing the claw to pass harmlessly below him, producing powerful wind that actually helped propel him forward, straight to the head of the monster that turned again.

Wolf clenched his fist before punching the head with full force, the monster was barely able to react, only lowering its head and forcing Wolf to collide with its forehead which seemed metallic.

The sound of metal hitting metal was heard as the monster's head was knocked back from the powerful punch of Wolf who slightly winced as his fist hurt as well. He had covered it in mana and used the 'Volcanic Punch' skill, but it was only able to heat up the forehead and did nothing else.

Just as the monster was about to attack Wolf who was falling down, a hammer struck its head from the side, knocking it to the side and actually forcing the monster to move its legs a bit before a large arrow struck its free claw that it was going to use to hit Wolf.

A whip suddenly wrapped around Wolf, pulling him back and away from the monster.

"Damn, that's quite cold," Wolf commented as the icy whip let go of him.

"Thanks though," Wolf told Mia who merely nodded at him before lunging at the monster with her sword, her frost appearing around her.

The behemoth glanced at her and lifted its leg in order to try and squash her, only for lightning to appear in front of its eyes as Reign appeared in a mere instant, stabbing forward with one of his swords, aiming at the eye of the monster.

[ Lightning Lance ]

The powerful lance struck forward, only to be stopped by rocks that suddenly broke off from the ceiling and levitated in front of the monster's head. They weren't normal rocks either, they were covered in mana and were incredibly durable and difficult to destroy, making it impossible even for Reign's lance to penetrate through them easily.

Tank swung his axe at the monster, causing a giant and powerful axe light to charge at it while Aelrinder stabbed forward with his spear that was covered in a powerful wind.

They all attacked, forcing the boss monster to be unable to respond, being forced to only defend and grow frustrated from doing so.

And yet, none of them were feeling happy or accomplished as the roars were now close and they knew the monsters the boss had summoned were close.

And then, they appeared.

Over 200 monsters.

All of them Tier VI, 6 of them Mini Bosses like the ones Reign and the others had fought before. Explore more adventures at m,v l'-NovelBin.net

None of them an easy opponent.

"Dammit!" Reign shouted as he kicked off the rocks before plummeting down to the ground.

"Retreat!"

Reign didn't have to yell twice as they all realized that this battle was one they could barely win.

If Reign transformed and they all went all out, they were certain they could win, but the cost would be too high.

None of them were sure that they could escape unscathed, no, they would definitely not escape unscathed, but the issue was that some of them might even die in this battle.

There were ten of them present, but they would need to send more than half to battle against the monster horde while the rest kept the boss occupied.

Even if they managed to defeat the monsters and then attack the boss again, their marks couldn't be active for too long, and they had no idea just what the boss was capable of.

It was incredibly powerful, and it barely did anything till now, it was mostly defending itself and using its body to attack, it only used its ability when Reign tried to stab one eye, which would have been a serious injury to it.

To them, it seemed as if the boss was merely playing with them, it was just waiting for the reinforcements and playing with its food because it was bored.

Perhaps it had not come across powerful opponents in a long time and it had grown bored and tired of defeating weaklings, so it was doing its best to enjoy the battle as long as possible, to relish the opportunity to fight against powerful opponents who could actually injure it.

It was definitely a possibility, after all, the more powerful the monster, the higher the chance it has intellect.

Reign and the others quickly started running away, using their abilities to attack the boss who was running after them. They launched long-range attacks at it while running, none of them stopping for an instant as they knew it would be far too dangerous to do so.

Even Reign, who could explode with immense power, was not willing to stay here and fight as he knew that there was a chance the boss could summon even more monsters to help it out, even though there was little possibility of that happening.

Mia and the others tried to do their best to slow the boss down, to slow its movement so that it wouldn't catch up to them.

It was stronger than them, that was sure, but they had no idea just how much stronger it was. They were hoping not a lot so that they would be able to get away safely.

They ran and ran, not stopping for anything as the boss was slowly catching up to them. Reign grimaced before suddenly jumping forward with full force and then turning around in the air. He grabbed a spear from his inventory and then threw it with full force, applying both lightning and light on it.

The spear zoomed through the air and arrived in front of the boss's face in an instant before hitting it. It was unable to stop it in time thanks to how fast it was, and it even managed to pierce through the forehead a bit.
