Chapter 770: Chapter 770: Refreshed?
The demonic guard commander was heavily struck and took two steps back instantly, all his hostility fully targeted on the player before him. He swung his weapon, slashing relentlessly at the player;
The blazing blade, burning with intense flames, carried fire damage. If the player was not able to withstand the heat to a certain extent, he would be reduced quickly to ashes by the BOSS;
Carter, who had activated his Shield Wall, had his damage reduced by 65%, yet still, even so, he struggled to withstand the onslaught of attacks from the now berserk World BOSS. His Vitality Points dwindled rapidly. Behind him were three Abyss Pastors, healing him continuously, but even they could only maintain his Vitality Points at about fifty percent.
The rise and fall of his Vitality Points caused Carter’s heart to leap to his throat. He was mired in relentless combat, but he was also acutely aware of the duration of his Shield Wall skill. The moment the effect of the Shield Wall ended, even if three Abyss Pastors were healing him, he would be slashed to death directly by the BOSS;
Three seconds before the Shield Wall expired, Carter began to retreat slowly. At this point, a man clad in black metallic armor and holding a large heavy shield taller than himself, fiercely slammed the shield towards Carter;
Glancing at the man, Carter’s eyes showed a hint of envy. Even though all Abyss professions are rare, Abyss Warrior like the one before him were common among the Abyss professions;
The man before him, clad in metallic armor and holding shields in both hands, is of a rare profession within the rare ones. He was an Abyss Shield Striker, a class lower than the epic profession, the Soul Ripper, but visibly a tier higher than ordinary ones like Abyss Warrior and Abyss Thief ;
Abyss Shield Strikers are the only profession in Abyss that can use shields. Moreover, they can only use shields as their weapons and cannot equip any other weapons like swords;
They can equip two one-handed shields at the same time, or a two-handed shield. This profession, renowned for their astounding defense, not only possessed a multitude of defensive skills but also dealt significant damage, alongside a plethora of skills that could knock back, stun, and slow their enemies. It could be said that they possess a shell as sturdy as a tortoise, combined with a wolf-like powerful attack;
Fasthan launched a spiteful shield strike, seizing the hatred of the BOSS. The world BOSS, originally hacking away at Carter, suddenly set his sights on Fasthan.
Seeing Fasthan successfully take over the BOSS’s aggro, a smile finally appeared on Toras’s face. The plan was progressing steadily. Although the BOSS’s special skill was unknown, the preparatory measures had taken effect. Killing this BOSS was only a matter of time.
Victory seemed near, making every person involved in killing the BOSS feel much more relaxed.
“Boss, when can the Abyssal Passage be opened? I can hardly wait to return to the city…” a player shouted.
“Yeah, I really want to see the look on those arrogant fellows when they see me again. Humph!”
“Hehe, I’ve heard that after some time, there won’t be any job transfers to Abyss professions. By the time we return to our original world, those who didn’t job transfer will definitely regret it!”
“Those players, in our eyes, are merely honor points. By then, we can also mess around with a Duke or Count title!”
“Duke, Count? You’re too ambitious. How many would you have to kill for that? I’d be satisfied if I can manage a Viscount!”
“Haha, what’s there to fear? There’ll be plenty to kill then. For those who haven’t job transferred into Abyssal professions, they’ll be worth nothing to us, just like pigs and sheep, waiting for us to slaughter!”
“Yes, yes, haha, what Bloodhand said makes sense. It would be better if those players were scared off from entering the game ever again!”

The battle was nearing its end. The BOSS’s vitality had dropped below 20%. The Abyss Shield Striker, who was tanking the BOSS, had his vitality constantly maintained above 80% due to the treatment from two Abyss Priests. Furthermore, the BOSS’s berserk state was about to end. Besides external interference, it would only take about ten more minutes to kill off this World BOSS;
Therefore, Thomas did not stop the chatter of the clansmen. Instead, he joined and discussed the matter with a smile on his face.
Looking at the BOSS whose vitality was less than a fifth remaining, a flame of anticipation surfaced in Thomas’s eyes;
“A world BOSS, one that could possibly drop epic tier equipment!” At this thought, he trembled with excitement;
However, some things exceeded his expectations. When victory was near for everyone, seven or eight Flame Demons suddenly rushed out. Their blazing claws were lifted high, striking down simultaneously on the heads of four Abyss Mages;
A series of piercing screams echoed; the four Abyss Mages fell to the ground almost simultaneously. The backline was thrown into chaos, and the ranged classes began to scatter;
“Be careful, the monsters have been refreshed! There are Flame Demons!”
“Melee professions, quickly come and restrain them. These Flame Demons deal huge damage!”
“Dammit, why do monsters have to spawn at this time!”
…
The team became instantly chaotic;
Noticing the group of Flame Demons, Thomas was taken aback. During their hunt for the World BOSS, they had made sure to clear all the nearby minions. Even if they respawned, it wasn’t possible for seven or eight monsters to appear at once;
“Damn it! How did these guys suddenly appear!” Thomas was furious. Their arrival was too abrupt, catching everyone off guard. Moreover, these Flame Demons coordinated perfectly, killing off four Abyss Mages instantly. Thomas felt as though they had fallen into a longstanding trap;
The death of four Abyss Mages had significantly lowered the team’s offensive power, prolonging the time taken to kill the BOSS, leading to an increased risk of their team being wiped out;
“Warriors, four warriors, quickly restrain these few Flame Demons!” Toras flapped his wings. A grey aura spiraled towards two of the Flame Demons, binding them firmly in place;
The remaining Flame Demons, after killing the four Abyss Mages, pounced on the nearby ranged classes. The faces of several Abyss Priests paled as they fled in all directions;
At this moment, a deep roar echoed. Thomas felt a chill run down his spine. This was not a sound that an ordinary Flame Demon could make.
Looking up, he saw a Flame Demon leader, with four to five Flame Demons, rushing towards the Abyss Priests who were healing the Abyss Shield Striker;
“Stop them, don’t let them get close!” Thomas shouted, his forehead veins bulging out in exasperation.
The whole team went into disarray; some were running in all directions, some continued to attack the BOSS, and some turned their attacks to the incoming Flame Demons.
Thomas tried to direct orders loudly, hoping to regain control of the situation. There were fifty-seven people present. If they could divert half to lead the Flame Demons away, the remaining could still kill the World BOSS;
