Chapter 722 Slay The Corrupted (IV)

The situation on the war has yet to finish but seeing how many players have been fighting now, I can see that the situation is getting much better compared to the other days. Not only that but Sigma and the others are successful in bringing down the raid boss to its second phase. I didn't give them any info about the second phase as I am going to become really suspicious if I did and I am sure it wouldn't be fun for them if they knew how to beat the crap out of that monster.

Seeing the situation there, I can see that my Mother has thought of using her Alchemist abilities and it turned out quite well. Unfortunately, since the soil that blocks the enemy from escaping is blocking my view, I don't know what is happening as well so there is nothing I can do about it.

"I kinda feel bored now that I don't have anything to do and all I can do right now while the battle is ongoing is watch. It's just like I am watching what is happening and seeing everything burn."

"I am sorry for that, Master. It seems my circumstances have made you feel this way and I think I really did have some fault in the situation."

Turning around, I saw Tina approaching before she stands beside me, observing the chaos happening below.

"Are you regretting that we didn't accept the quest? If so, don't be. There is not that much problem when we declined. It's not like they are a very big deal for us to do so so keep in mind that there is no problem with us not accepting the quest so remember that and stop blaming yourself when I also didn't accept the quest as well. It's my decision so don't keep on saying things."

Tina went silent and didn't say anything to make a rebuttal of what I just said. Then, she slowly sighed deeply and nodded.

"Perhaps, it was indeed for the best."

While Bladeheart and Tina had some relaxing talk with each other, Sigma and the others are clearly not having a good time with the enemy before them. The enemy is still alive and 1 out of the five has been downed and destroyed as a result of the combined effort of everyone. But the others are a pain to kill and they have yet to even properly do so.

"SH*T... I didn't expect that they would become a little bit annoying to deal with now. I thought it would be easier for us to kill the monster if it is smaller but this is getting annoying," Sigma wiped off her sweat as the four remaining body parts before them merges once more and started to rampage once more.

"Hagane! Iron!" Dolly shouted as the two immediately jump into the fray and catches the two attacks that were incoming to the group.

"Kghhhhh!" the two grit their teeth as the appendages that attacked them.

Their health is rapidly declining so Bladeheart's Mother immediately throws a splash potion on the two so that they survive the attacks without dying,

Once the two managed to block the attack, the Brain Jacker started releasing a cosmic wave in the air and everyone immediately covered their ears. Hagane who failed to cover his ears in time as he is still trying to recover from the previous attack screamed in pain as his ears starts bleeding.

Sigma immediately signaled everyone to help Hagane once the cosmic wave is over and cover for him before the Brain Jacker approaches him and deal fatal damage.

"If Iron didn't manage to tank the attack before, we might have lost Hagane right now. Cover for him while he is healing. Everyone else, focus on dealing damage to the Brain Jacker while it is still intact!"

Earlier, before they defeated one of its appendages, the cosmic wave happened and the victim at that time was Iron and got attacked by the Brain Jacker by injecting some sort of liquid into him, almost killing him in the process. But because of one of his passive, [Tenacity of the Iron Man] that allows him to survive fatal attacks and retain at least 1 HP, he managed to escape the fatal attack.

That's how everyone managed to realize that the Brain Jacker is capable of dealing huge damage and one-hit kill to everyone if they don't get the care and they are caught up on its little combos. They are not even sure whether these combos will remain once they destroy one more appendage since the current combo only occurred the moment they managed to destroy one of its appendages present.

Sigma tried her best to seal its movements and slow it down but because of how slick it moves, she has a hard time stopping it. The others on the other hand are dealing decent damages to the Brain Jacker but not that strong for it to be fatal for the Brain Jacker.

As they continue to hold out and beat it up by releasing multiple attacks again and again against it, soon, the next appendage present started to dangle and has an abnormal movement now.

"Look, one of its appendages is almost dead, quick! We need to destroy it as soon as we can!"

Mr. Teddy and Bladeheart's father nodded when they found the Brain Jacker is almost losing another part of it.

"Cover for us guys, we will be dealing a lethal blow against it!"

"Leave it to us!" Harmless Sparrow immediately ignited her sword into flames and started to move erratically against the Brain Jacker while also swinging her weapon multiple times to slowly drain its HP.

Dolly and Topaz raised their staff and channeled their mana on the two men, to enhance the attack power of two and also shorten the charge time of their skills while Bladeheart's Mother throws controls the soil and held the Brain Jacker in place. This is only good to keep the monster in place for a few seconds but this is enough time for the two.

With their charge power, the two simultaneously punched the Brain Jacker, sending it to the rock wall and destroying one of its little appendages.

"One tentacle down! Get ready guys! We don't know what will happen next!" Bladeheart's father shouted as he and Mr. Teddy drank a potion to recover their lost mana from the attack they did.

Sigma takes the helm this time around and readies her greatsword. Since the monster opened up its next phase, she is the one who needs to test out the new attack pattern of the monster as she is also the one who can easily survive them.

The Brain Jacker recovers and the moment it does, its speed has multiplied greatly Sigma immediately blocks the attack of the Brain Jacker as it rushes to her with both of its appendages ready to do something.

"F*CK! It's heavy!"

Sigma gritted her teeth. She just tanked one attack but her health has been immediately reduced to half. It was like she tanked 10 direct attacks from a cannon and yet she only received one attack. Not only that, the speed is something she is going to have a problem as well as the rest of them too.

The battle has yet to reach its conclusion.
