Chapter 103 - Ch 103 : Spider Boss Battle

When Tony finished saying those words, he closed the door of the Boos Room, leaving only Eve and Ray inside.

But different from Tony's expectation, there was no trace of fear and panic on the face of Ray and Eve.

Ray looked at Eve with an unexplainable expression on his face.

" You.. they are your team member, right? Are you going to let them be killed just like this?"

Tony would certainly be surprised if he heard Ray. Yup, when Tony closed the door and left Ray and Eve inside, Ray didn't have any resentment for him, and instead, pity filled his expression.

From the time Ray stepped into this Dungeon, his danger sense had been ringing like mad to the Government agent, and it wasn't that hard to see that the Government agent had their own agenda.

The moment Tony left Ray inside the boss room, Ray could see the Government agent's eyes were gleaming dangerously in Tony's direction.

It wasn't that hard to see that the Government agent would kill everyone here to silence them. But the question is.. what's the advantage to him for doing that?

" It's not my business. They have their own choice, and they must be ready to face the consequences. Furthermore, they are not on my team anymore. After we returned from the Lawang Sewu's Dungeon, Tony's family got into contact with them and successfully hijacked them from my family." Said Eve as if she didn't give any fuck about what happened to the three girls.

" Rather than that, we should focus on what's in front of us." Eve pointed at the giant Spider whose eyes were opened after the Boos Room Door closed.

Just like the setting in the game, the Boss battle would only begin after some condition was fulfilled. And the condition in this Dungeon was to fully close the Big Door.

. . . . .

Around the same time, Tony turned around towards the boss room. The Awakeners following him also came to a stop. They had arrived at a far-enough spot from the boss room now. Even though they didn't care about being overheard, but they still did this anyway.

Tony smiled deeply and signaled to the Government agent.

"We have done the part of our deal. Now we want the payment as soon as possible." Said Tony, not knowing that a big danger was watching him.

"Sure, but I need something first?" The Government agent smiled at Tony.

" Hmm, what thing?" Asked Tony casually. But at this time, he began to feel there was something wrong with the Government Agent.

His posture was no longer as relaxed as before, and he put his hand on the weapon, ready to pull it at any time.

"Why are you so tense? It's just a deal. No need to be that cautious." The Government Agent asked him, but it only further Tony's wariness.

"Who are you?" Tony's face was very grim. At first, he never thought that there was something wrong with the deal because he really wanted to kill Ray. But now that Ray has gone, he began to feel the conspiracy hidden here.

The Government Agent's expression crumpled, and he glared at Tony. There was no need for him to maintain the fake smile now. At least that was one less thing to worry about.

"Well, it seems you are not as stupid as I thought. But that makes it a lot easier for me. The thing I want is not that hard to get. It is just...."

The Government agent disappeared as he said those words, and when he reappeared once again, he had already reached Tony's back.

" Your Life!!!!"

. . . . . 

"….."

Ray's gaze was fixed on the giant Spider, who had just opened his eyes. Even his breathing was cautious. He then asked Eve on his side:

"Should we start now? Or are we waiting for the Spider to make a move first?"

"Who knows," Eve replied, pretty indifferent.

After the previous battle, she knew that even if the Spider was strong, it should be no problem if the two of them were to combine their strength.

Ray watched Eve didn't have any intention to move and shook his head helplessly.

This woman.. can she just be a bit more direct and stop acting mysterious?...

Nonetheless, Ray remained economical with his words. He had more or less figured out what was Eve's intention, and it was somewhat in line with his.

Then, 'it' happened.

Kabooom!!!

With a loud explosion, the rumbles of rock fell and blocked the Big Gate.

It was to ensure that the awakener would try to escape, so the mechanism in the Boss room would get a few rocks to block the gate.

The thing was finally happening. The Boss battle would start soon!

At the same time, Ray and Eve glanced in the direction of the Giant Spider.

"Keurruuuk. Keururuk."

The spider boss has been waiting for this, and it was slowly raising its massive body up.

The body with the size of a two-level house.

Dozens upon dozens of eyes.

That horrifying mouth, full of fangs.

Now that it had begun moving for real, it looked like a scene came out from an 80's horror movie.

" Let's get started!"

"Ummm…."

Eve leaked out a powerful aura, and immediately an army of shadow soldiers appeared.

After that time in the Lawang Sewu's Dungeon, Eve had trained hard, and the result was she was able to summon more than five shadow soldiers at a time now.

On the other hand, Ray also didn't want to lose. He summoned Bintang once again, who immediately turned into her juvenile form and took out the holy staff slingshot from his inventory.

This was the first battle outside of the experience room where he and Bintang would battle together.

The Natal weapon: The stone Mk.II appeared in his other hand….

Swiish.

….As if it had always been there.

Ray held the handle of the holy staff slingshot tightly. It was the right time to show their power and take the initiative.

Aura surged around his body and began to converge around the natal weapon, the stone Mk. II.

" I'm going first, Eve!"

He placed the stone on the holy staff slingshot, and the stone began to shine. Even though this move was still deemed unworthy by the system, at least this was better than everything in his arsenal and should only be a few steps away from being recognized by the system as a true special move.

" Stardust Bang Flash!!!!!"

After accumulating a lot of his energy into the stone, Ray released his grip. The holy staff slingshot successfully absorbed Ray's energy and used it to propel the stone in the direction of the Giant Spider.

At this moment, a bright light followed as Ray launched the stone. A golden beam came from the stone, and it further increased the speed where it was thrown.

BANGGG!!!!!

The stone hit the body of the Giant Spider.

The hard shell of the Giant Spider cracked, but nonetheless, it was still a bit too weak to breach the giant Spider's defense and dealt some significant damage.

Ray's attack just now fully angered the Giant Spider.

The Spider used its senses to discover Ray's location and began to charge towards them while shuffling on its eight legs.

Ray and the other tried to maintain some distance, but the Spider was a lot faster than how it looked.

It was coming closer.

And when it was close enough. The Spider suddenly did something that Ray and Eve had never expected before.

The Spider used its strong leg to jump high into the air, and while in the air, raised its two front legs up and bent them at an angle.

" Dodge!!!"

Ray's eyes shot open wide next as he realized the aim of this move!

SLAM!!

The Spider landed on the ground right next to Ray, and the spider leg penetrated the ground like a piece of paper.

Fortunately, Ray, Bintang, and Eve were fast enough to dodge and were able to avoid an instakill.

If Ray didn't instinctively tilt his body out of the way, Spider's legs would've penetrated his chest just now. The Spider's legs stabbed into the ground next to him before rising up in the air, its joints folding back up. And from the ends of its legs, pieces of the rocky ground fell.

Ray sneaked a glance at the ground as the stone floor now had a pretty substantial hole in it.

'If I got hit by that, I would be lucky to survive, huh.'

Ray's glare sharpened even more. Now was the time he needed to concentrate even harder.

Just, as usual, he would be the bait to gain the aggro of the giant Spider, while Eve and Bintang would be attacking from the far.

He had some thought about using the shadow Gorilla like before, but the plan was scrapped in the end.

Shadow's gorilla movement was too rigid for this kind of battle, and it should not be able to survive the attack of the Giant Spider.

'It's coming!'

Swish!

The Spider's legs that were as fast as a bullet being fired could now be captured in his eyes. Ray used the combination of Danger sense and his hawkeye to gain full control of the battle and predicted the movement of the Spider.

Left.

Ray ducked his head lower to evade the Spider's left front leg.

Right.

Ray tilted his body a bit and let Spider's right leg brush just past his nose before he took a step closer.

The battle between Ray and the Spider was just like a kid playing hammer in the arcade, but from the side, Bintang and Eve were preparing their big move.
