Chapter 2038: Failed Mutation II
"We now know how to destroy the Tumultuous Leviathan! Make sure to be prepared for anything unsavory that might happen!" The guild masters shouted to all of their guild members as they can now see the end of this raid.
The raid of a Primordial Beast is something that should be difficult, but they did not think that there would be different stages that are troublesome. Unlike normal raid bosses, the Primordial Beast could also be considered as an NPC as they could be interacted with. If one is hostile, then that is the only time that the Primordial Beast would be completely hostile. Still, the players are not entirely sure about the last statement as the Leviathan was the first primordial beast to ever awaken.
All of the players thought that they could see the end as they reduced the health of the Tumultuous Leviathan to 15% by rapidly destroying the Miniature Serpents that it has produced when struck. What they did not believe is that there are other ways for the failed mutated primordial beast to attack when it cannot attack the target it wants. The Tumultuous Leviathan suddenly twisted its body and punched a wormhole into existence.
All of the Daemos immediately knew that this is something that should not be created as the Tumultuous Leviathan was able to destroy the dimensional barrier in that specific spot. The Tumultuous Leviathan would then enter the wormhole and it reappeared in the area where the most miniature serpents were killed. All of the players in the area are suddenly inside of the encirclement that the Tumultuous Leviathan created using its own body.
Without even a moment of hesitation or it might be due to its craze, the Tumultuous Leviathan pounced on all of the players inside of its encirclement. The jaws of the Leviathan have been strengthened to such a degree that a bite would create shockwaves. One bite of the Tumultuous Leviathan would kill the players inside of it and decrease the health of those near it by 40%. They were not even bitten directly but they lost almost half their health.
Even the defenses of the players did not matter as the powerful bite defied common sense and also has defense penetration. One bite is all it takes to defeat all of the players present and they were terrified of it. Even the tanks would get killed instantly if they are caught which is now happening to them as they are the slowest to run away.
"I can no longer hold it!" Elder Koronn stated as he could no longer use Inverse Realm. As soon as Elder Koronn cancelled Inverse Realm, the blessings it gave have vanished as well. The only upside is that the Tumultuous Leviathan got slammed by a huge body of water that was the sea. The players were mostly safe as the Blessing of the Sky returned to the Blessing of the Deep where the effect of the sea is mitigated. The only downside is that they could no longer freely walk in the air.
"Attack while the Tumultuous Leviathan is falling down!" All the players shouted as they saw that the Tumultuous Leviathan seemed to have lost its control over the sea and was mercilessly slammed by it when it fell down from above.
"Maybe I can access them?!" Adrian suddenly thought as he proceeded to touch the wormhole but even, he got a repelling force.
Even if Adrian got repelled, he was actually able to see within the wormholes. He had a glimpse of the structure that was the wormhole. It looked like a complex web of passages that are all interconnected, but he could not be extremely sure. He tried to touch it again but the damage he received was equivalent to 4% of his maximum health per second. The wormhole themselves seem to be something akin to the domain of the Tumultuous Leviathan.
While Adrian was assessing what to do, a lot of players scattered as they knew that grouping up would just end in them getting killed in one swoop. Elder Bronx tried to catch the Tumultuous Leviathan, but it would run away as soon as it sensed his presence. It seems that the boss monster would rather kill all the others while ignoring and escaping from the
Daemos.
"Since this is the case, everyone must come to me!" Elder Bronx shouted and then casted Dimension Shrink which brought most of the players near him.
"Let us see where you will appear now!" Elder Bronx stated as he also displaced the players in groups where he can reach in time.
He grouped the players into five areas where he could easily reach. The players did not like it, but their best chances are being bait even if they do not like being one. As if the Tumultuous Leviathan could see through what Elder Bronx thought, it did not reappear immediately this time. The players thought that the Tumultuous Leviathan would not appear as they knew it was afraid of the demons.
Contrary to what they think, the Tumultuous Leviathan seemed to be quite the monster. Three Tumultuous Leviathan's surfaced in three different wormholes. Elder Bronx is shocked to see this but quickly responded to the closest to him and blinked to that area. He encased his fists with Force Shell and slammed the head of the smaller Tumultuous Leviathan.
It seems that Elder Bronx did quite the amount of damage, but it was not enough to kill it. The smaller Tumultuous Leviathan created a smaller wormhole and hid inside of it immediately. The two other smaller Tumultuous Leviathan charged towards the players, but they felt something different. The tanks that defended the group were able to repel the attacking boss monster which they could not do earlier.
"It becomes weaker when it splits itself to attack!" The players that defended against the two smaller Tumultuous Leviathan shouted as the tanks lived on with half of their health.
