The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 877

The next few pulls went smoothly, with [Hellstorm] gathering all the Spiderlings into one spot for elimination.

They were mostly a nuisance to most groups, but eliminating them from the equation freed up the whole group to deal with the Elves, and prevented the Priests from buffing the Spiderlings so they could do real damage to the adventurers.

Not that Rae let them live that long.

That was the great thing about Dungeons. You could use the same trick over and over because the next group never learned them, as long as you ended the fight before you drew their attention.

It might not be the most realistic situation in the real world, where groups would communicate. But if the Dungeon mobs did communicate, and they had a whole city of Dark Elves coming at them the moment they entered, not many groups would survive a dungeon run.

Rae naturally thought it would be fun to try, and Cara was sure that it would be hilarious to herd them all into an elaborate trap. But the rest of the group would definitely not agree with their ideas of ’fun’.

"Alright, this next group is a nightmare. As soon as you pull the first one, it triggers the others, and they will keep coming until everything is dead. It’s a Guard Garrison, so mostly Dark Elven warriors, no Spiderlings.

Then as soon as that ends, the boss will appear in the middle of that courtyard.

Normally, we pull them here, so we have a chance to take a break before the boss. But you all look like you’re in good shape today, so I say that we fight in the middle of the courtyard, and use area damage to deal with the waves of warriors.

The final boss is a Spider Priestess. So, expect self-healing, unholy spell attacks if Cara can’t block them all, and under no circumstances should anyone without a shield try to take a blow from her staff.

The damage is incredible, and it has a petrification effect.

It doesn’t trigger through a shield, but if your armour gets touched, even a barrier effect won’t stop it.

Everyone got it?" Thomas asked.

The group nodded in the affirmative, and took a short drink before following him forward.

"I will apologize for the lack of visibility in advance. I have an area attack spell, but it’s hard to see through." Karl warned.

They got into position, and Thomas used [Taunt] to grab a group of warriors, starting the battle.

Then Karl activated [Apocalypse], filling the air with a flaming blizzard as Hellstorm vortexes formed at random around the group. Then, meteors began to fall from the sky, and Thomas cursed.

"Are you insane?" He shouted.

Hawk began calling even more vortexes as he added his own flaming blizzard to the mix, making it impossible to see more than ten metres.

Then Karl used Thor’s [Consecrated Ground] buff to guard the group. It would reduce damage, and increase Holy attacks, if anyone had them. But most importantly, it would deal area Holy Damage to any enemies that made it past the Apocalypse.

Karl took a knee and focused on regenerating mana as he pushed the spell output upwards and Elves began to flood the training grounds.

The spell’s radius was too large, and they had grabbed everything, but the Dark Elves couldn’t see where they were. They were running blindly into the storm, while the adventurers did their best to attack.

Even Rae was waiting with the group, so she didn’t catch friendly fire.

It was a good time to practice rapidly deploying [Blood Destruction], which did even more area damage and confused the dungeon residents as to the direction they were under attack from.

"They’ve figured it out." Thomas warned as the first few warriors made it past the ring of Hellstorm Vortexes.

They were in terrible shape, and under attack by the mages, but charging into combat.
