A smile surfaced on his face when he looked at his teammates slaughtering their opponents. It was then that he heard a small explosion; It came from the center. The boss monster that was sitting still till now has stood up. The ground behind him cracked, and a giant Undead Horse emerged.
It neighed and stomped the ground, creating tiny cracks before bending on its front two legs. The boss monster touched his mount's head before seating on its back. He raised his sword and cried, commanding his mount to approach the opponents that had invaded his territory.
The members of the All-Stars looked at the boss monster approaching; most of them were intimidated by his charge, but only some were able to maintain their composure while facing such an opponent. Rishi looked at the approaching opponent, a seven-foot humanoid giant sitting on top of a ferocious mount.
He was wearing a black metallic helmet with runes embedded in it. His face was covered entirely in shadow; only the light green flame was visible. He was wearing rusty black armor with a light green crystal embedded in it. Multiple strange runes were attached to the crystal shining in a light green glow.
He held a giant sword in one hand; the black-colored sword looked metallic. There were strange runes on it, and there was a gem on its handle connected by a link of minor runes. It was shining in a green glow. On the other hand, the boss monster had a shield that looked ordinary compared to the other item he wore.
But once one looked at the shield more clearly; they would notice it had a two-eye pattern that looked closed now. There was a stitched part too, which looked like a mouth had been stitched; It looked like a monster's head.
The mount of the boss monster was also not ordinary; it was a giant Undead Horse wearing black metallic armor. It wore a mask-like thing on the forehead with two horn-like shapes attached. It was very swift while moving. Its four hooves were shining in a green glow and creating cracks wherever it stepped.
The mount had a long, light green flame in place of his eyes, like his master. His body outside the armor looked like a rotten corpse surrounded by light green smoke. It had a long, bushy tail, which too was covered in a green glow. It jumped and launched its body toward the opponents.
The boss monster swung his sword and released a ray of energy attack toward the opponents. Lalit used his sword to block the attack but found himself thrown many meters away. His shield also had a big slash mark on it, and his hands were shaking from the impact.
This increased the fear of the boss monster in the group, and when Dev saw that, he shouted, "Focus guys, we will defeat it like we have defeated everyone we have come across till now. Jay and Vinay hit it with long-range attacks, while Dilip and Manu also attacked him from the sides."
"He is alone while we have so many people; there is no need to be scared of it. He should be scared of us instead; we have destroyed every soldier; now it's his turn," he tried to motivate other teammates.
Jay and Vinay attacked the boss with their spells. Vinay's spell 'Bone Rot' worked a little, but its effect was easily reversed by the 'regeneration' of the boss monster. Jay tried to do some damage with his arrows, but the opponent easily blocked them with his shield. One arrow bypassed its shield and hit its armor, and its arrowhead broke apart while there was not even a scratch on the armor.
The boss monster chuckled and attacked again, but this time Dev used his shield to block his attacks. He did succeed in blocking but was too pushed back a few steps with his mount; Dilip and Manu used this opportunity and attacked the opponent.
The boss monster easily defended Manu's attack with his shield while using his sword to defend against Dlip's attack, but unknown to him, the attack of Dilip was empowered with a spear aura and first deflected his sword before landing on his arm and creating a little wound.
The boss monster got inraged and slashed its sword towards Dilip, launching another energy attack, but what happened next fueled his rage even more. Dilip's mount used a moment skill and dodged that attack.
When others looked at the wound created by Dilip, the eyes of other members lit up. They started believing they could take down the monster in front of them and started attacking him, unaware that the wound created by their teammate had already been recovered.
Rishi summoned his chains and started using them to catch the legs of the boss monster's mount. The Undead Horse jumped and moved fast to escape them, but all of it was useless against Rishi, who could summon more while using the already summoned chains to chase.
He finally caught the monster, giving his teammates a good opportunity to target the boss monster. His teammates performed up to his expectations. Vinay and Jay started shooting Bone Spear and Aroows like they were using multiple machine guns; the boss monster defended himself, but the main target was his mount.
Jay and Vinay combined their spells; Vinay used the Bone Spear and attacked the opponent, while Jay used his arrows to penetrate through the back part of the Bone Spear before using his arrows to control them and accurately hit the place on the Undead Horse's body that had no armor.
Even when hit on the body, the bone spears only penetrated at most a centimeter or two, which did little to no harm to the opponent; the opponent was even enraged by it and started using its full strength. The chains started cracking; Rishi tried to stop it, but everything became useless when the mad horse started stomping madly. Its whole body was surrounded by a strange green glow, which multiplied its strength.
It was then that Jay looked at Vinay, who smirked and nodded before closing his eyes and saying "Explode," The bone spears stuck inside the body of the monster exploded, creating many wounds all over its body. The mount even cried in agony when the boss monster saw that he tried to control it.
