1109 Golem Lord

Sorrowless' shield skill had a cooldown of one hour, with an active duration of 3 seconds. Naturally, once used, it probably would not be used for the rest of the battle. Furthermore, since the cooldown of the skill was so long, the team would not be able to count on this skill to save them from wiping every time. After all, Argelmach could still have multiple skills up his sleeves.

After wiping two more times, Lu Li stood up and clapped his hands loudly. He decided that he was going to be the saviour of this team.

"Breezy, do you see the four pillars in the hall?" Lu Li asked while pointing. "Drag the Boss to the middle. Then, when he's going to use a skill, everyone should run behind the pillars. The pillars might be able to save our lives."

"Is that possible? After all, this is a lightning attack." Wendelian was extremely suspicious.

Everyone knew that for skills like this, it did not matter if they hid from the Boss. After all, they had seen that the Lightning Cloud had enveloped the whole house.

"Just try it out. We don't know until we try," Lu Li said, clearly determined.

Since there weren't any other better proposals, the others did not object to this suggestion. They had wiped so many times until this point.

Azure Sea Breeze began to drag Argelmach and the other two golems in the middle. They had to start from phase one, so they had to use the triangle formation once again.

This time, they did not start off as well as before. The moment the battle begun, Elevenless was immediately killed. As for why Elevenless always died, this was unexplainable. However, Lu Li did not call for the team to stop.

Green Flag Wine ended up replacing Elevenless' role of tanking the golems.

After passing through phase one, things became a little easier. However, after phase two came phase three…

"Ready…"

The moment Lu Li yelled for the team to prepare themselves, they immediately stopped attacking. Then, when he instructed them to run, even Azure Sea Breeze listened and used his leap skill to escape.

Fortunately, the Boss remained still when everyone was running. After all, he was channelling his skill.

Waves of lightning bolts filled the room, turning it into a lightning cage.

As soon as the lightning hit a member of the team, they did not bother to use any form of mitigation. However, they quickly found out that the lightning bolts that could one-shot them did not kill them this time.

"Ah, I understand," Sorrowless remarked, understanding how they managed to take significantly less damage from the lightning. "The lightning bolts were less concentrated this time than previously. This was because we took shelter behind the pillars. The damage that we received was from the smaller bolts that extended from the main ones. Lu Li was correct in his judgment."

Lu Li was happy that someone else had explained it instead of himself. He was just content at discovering the strategy.

However, they could not let down their guard here. After all, Argelmach was known as the Golem Lord, so he could not only have had the two golems from the beginning.

Argelmach began to summon golem after golem.

During this time, the golems could be controlled by players after their HP reached a certain threshold. The players could control these golems and use their skills and bodies to fight.

This was an enjoyable part of the fight as it was like playing with bumper cars.

The ones with less DPS or less tanking ability could choose to control one of these golems and attack the Boss this way.

Obviously, the main tank and healers still had to maintain their current roles.

The damage that the golems received was not transferred to the player's original bodies. Instead, the golems had a durability bar of 100 points. Many players would use them to attack Argelmach, since the damage was extremely high.

The summoning of these golems only helped the players, instead of making it difficult for them. As such, Argelmach quickly used a new skill that was a form of black magic, which he used to separate souls from bodies.

Argelmach used this skill on Unforgettable Maple, who immediately lost control of his body and became one of Argelmach's puppets.

He had quickly become the Boss' weapon, but he alone could not do much. After all, they were all professional players who met with each other on a regular basis in the arena.

The Boss began to use this skill on other squad members too.

This stage of the Boss fight was extremely difficult and dangerous. After all, the number of players fighting against Argelmach was slowly decreasing. If this skill was cast on the main tank or the healers, then they would definitely wipe.

Argelmach's HP was already less than 10%, so if they wiped here, they would have to start all over again.

"Those who have crowd-control skills, use them on the ones being controlled. The rest of you, focus on the Boss!" Lu Li was still yelling for the members to stop fighting the controlled players.

As he spoke, he used Blind on Unforgettable Maple, then rushed towards the Boss.

After this, even when the others were affected by Argelmach's skill, the originally controlled players would return to normal. They realised that the maximum number of controlled players was five.

Their most unfortunate moment came when Azure Sea Breeze was controlled. Sea Breaker hurried to take his role and tanked the Boss' damage. Argelmach's damage was horrifyingly lethal. Lu Li didn't think that Sea Breaker could tank more than two hits, considering the healers were running out of Mana.

"Alright, alright. I'm back," Azure Sea Breeze announced, then rushed to help Sea Breaker out.

The three healers had used up all their mana in these few seconds healing Sea Breaker. Azure Sea Breeze felt sympathetic for them. After all, Sea Breaker was supposed to be a professional main tank.

After Azure Sea Breeze took over Sea Breaker's position, the battle immediately turned in their favour. The other players were managing fine, so the healers had a chance to rest for a little while.

They were even more lucky, because Argelmach did not go into an enraged state this time. Lu Li decided to let Innocent Child use a revive on Elevenless so that the whole team could receive rewards and pass this Instance Dungeon together. Azure Sea Breeze and Jade Flower Lover also gained skill points as rewards.

Even if an ordinary squad knew the strategies, they would still be grinding this dungeon for hours on end, with wipe after wipe. Smaller guilds could find themselves fighting here for days without any progress.

Lu Li was content with this outcome already.

He knew of two Legendary drops from Argelmach. One was the Naglering, while the other was Second Wind.

Second Wind was an extremely powerful item for Mage classes. This was because once it was equipped, it could regenerate tremendous amounts of Mana during battle.

The properties of the Naglering were not bad either and was popular among main tanks. There was a unique effect that had a chance to give a defensive barrier for the wielder. The maximum number of barriers that could be held was five. This ring gave main tank the capacity to tank a huge number of same level monsters at the same time.

Of course, when used against a Boss, the effects of this ring would be rather insignificant. Even five barriers would not be able to tank one hit from a Boss.

Lu Li was a little torn between which one he would prefer to drop.

In terms of actual value, Second Wind was much more valuable. However, only March Rain could enter the roll for it, as seven to eight others would also want it. If the Naglering dropped, then Azure Sea Breeze would have a high chance of receiving it, due to his relationship with Sea Breaker.

Even if Sea Breaker wanted to roll for it, Azure Sea Breeze still had a considerable chance of winning.
