The beheadings immediately killed them, so the casualties were unimaginable. This was a situation that even the most powerful healer couldn’t reverse.

When Azure Sea Breeze was beheaded, Lu Li almost gave up.

“Don’t give up!” Wandering shouted before gaining the Boss’ aggro. He had taken on the responsibility of being the Main Tank.

The Boss didn’t have much HP left. They were so close, and they had no idea if they were going to get this far next time.

“Okay, everyone, keep working hard!” Lu Li nodded.

There were still seven players that could deal damage. In theory, they still had a chance of dealing with the Boss, as long as these seven people kept persisting.

“Jaweika, I am watching you!!”

“Jaweika, don’t move!” Lu Li reminded loudly, but unfortunately, it was too late. Jaweika slammed his Magic Staff to cancel the skill, but he did it under the watchful eye of the Boss.

“Dammit, everyone be careful. Even if you are fully committed to dealing damage, make sure you aren’t being watched first,” Lu Li said helplessly. There were only six players left.

“Deadly Kill!”

Again?

If they lost another damage output player, they wouldn’t prevail even if the Boss stood still.

“Ah, why is it me?!” Hachi Chan cried out.

“Good, good, it’s just a healer.”

In different circumstances, they would definitely prefer a damage output player dying. However, since they were in the Berserk phase, healers were definitely not as important as the damage output players.

“And Hachi Chan has already used Enhanced Tranquility. Hachi Chan, your death is a noble one,” Remnant Dream murmured as she mourned for her friend.

“Remnant Dream, I am watching you!!”

“…” Remnant Dream stared back motionlessly.

After a while, she was free to move again.

“Hehe, I’ve played this game with Hachi Chan before. Whoever moves first pays for the ice cream,” Remnant Dream said proudly. The Boss hadn’t targeted her until now, so she didn’t had a chance to show off her abilities.

“Deadly Kill!”

Again?

Lu Li felt a headache coming on.

If the situation became hopeless, Lu Li would have no issue with allowing the team to be wiped. The main reason they were still persisting was because they were so close. It would be really depressing to give up now.

“Best of luck everyone,” Moonlight said as he fell. Another damage output player had been lost, but the Boss’ HP had almost been depleted.

Most Bosses possessed some kind of HP regeneration. Some regenerated quickly, while others regenerated more slowly. Bloodlord Mandokir was on the slower side, but they still needed a few players just to offset his HP gain.

This was why they couldn’t just use the Boss’ total HP to calculate how much damage they would need to defeat it. If that was the case, Bloodlord Mandokir could be defeated in a matter of minutes.

“Almost there, we’re almost there! Keep going – we just have to deal a bit more damage. Healers, stop healing and just deal whatever damage you can.”

Lu Li couldn’t really ask for much more. He felt that everyone had done everything that they could. Even if they couldn’t do it this time, they would stand an even better chance next time.

However, this didn’t mean that he had given up.

There was hope in his eyes as the Boss’ Berserk duration was coming to an end. If there were still players left after that, then they had a real chance at winning the battle.

“I dedicate my blood to Hakkar, and my soul… to the… golden…,” Bloodlord Mandokir gasped as he looked weakly at the few bugs left before him. His strength was quickly leaving him, and he had already taken too much damage while in Berserk.

“Flower, there are only the two of us damage output players left. Do you still have mana?”

He was just worried that Lonesome Flower was useless even though he was still standing. If he had to attack the Boss alone, he wouldn’t be able to kill it even in this weakened state. Once this weakened state passed, the Boss’ regeneration would normalize and the situation would soon be reversed, even if Mandokir only had a single hit point left.

“Yep, I just drank a special potion, and I am regeneration 2% of my mana per second for 10 seconds,” Lonesome Flower said confidently. His luck had been pretty good to have survived for this long. Now he was able to deal as much damage as he wanted without worrying about the Boss.

“Wandering tank the Boss. Deadly Green Orange, heal.”

Lu Li was fortunate to have another Main Tank and healer still alive.

“Don’t worry, I still have plenty of mana,” Deadly Green Orange said. As a professional player, he knew how to manage his resources.

“You don’t have to heal me – just heal Flower and Wandering,” Lu Li instructed.

Lu Li intended to use the special effect on his necklace instead.

Dragonfire Amulet (Epic): All Attributes 40, HP 800, 2 Slots. Special Effect 1: Fire Resistance 20%. Special Effect 2: Torrent of HP. Regenerates 1000HP upon use and receive 100% in Healing for the next 30 seconds. Special Effect 3: Return to Life. When this item is equipped, the user is given one chance to revive every day. When revived in this way, the EXP loss is halved and the user is invincible for three seconds after reviving. Equipment Requirement: Level 60. Durability 350

/350.

He still hadn’t used today’s revive, but there were still many Bosses after this, so he could save it for later.

However, if they couldn’t kill Bloodlord Mandokir, then there was no point thinking about the later Bosses.

The Boss’ HP was still fluctuating, but compared to when he was Berserk, the situation definitely now favored the players. Eventually, the HP that the Boss had was completely gone.

Victory!

Lu Li let out a deep sigh and looked upon the littered corpses of his teammates.

He didn’t know how many times it had taken for the team to get the First Clear in his previous life, but he doubted that it was just two.

This was the team he had led, and these were his teammates.

He felt moved that by that thought.

Deadly Green Orange then started to slowly Revive the other healers, who would in turn revive the others.

“Hey!”

Almost everyone who was revived was tired and had to rest. All but one.

The little hunter rushed straight at the body of Bloodlord Mandokir, and yelled out, “Little mount, I am coming. The little raptor is so cute; I will have to borrow it from whoever gets it. I want to ride the dragon…”

How nice it was to be young. Lu Li, who was in his 20s, suddenly felt old.

Strengthening Stones and Rare Materials were thrown by Lu Li’s side. Before he could collect these items, Synthetic Gems, Gold equipment and Dark Gold equipment were all being looted.

Lu Li had only just begun to read through the Synthetic Gems when the Epic equipment had also been thrown over to him.

Lu Li just had to divide up the rewards even more quickly.

However, he was still slower than the rate at which Remnant Dream was looting. She was desperately looking for the mount.

And it seemed like the Mount had really dropped.

Armored Razzashi Raptor!
