Chapter 88 Fighting A Dungeon Boss

"Can we please not mention spidragoons!?" Alice yelled out. She was fine with anything but spidragoons!

"I am just saying…." Vance chuckled as he looked at the girls: "Are you ready?"

"Ready…." Both girls did not look like they wanted to do this, but they had to in order to grow stronger. Vance also knew they would soon get used to all of this as well.

Vance took a deep breath and pushed the door open. The room was like any generic boss room where it was dark until you walked in and the doors behind you closed. There was no retreating from a boss room. Either you died, or the boss died. There was no running away.

"Alice, You stay more to the left, and Sally, you stay to the right. This will keep two of the attack from hitting either of you. Do not attack until I say so. Let's move!" Vance charged forward with his sword drawn.

The snagangoon raised its ugly head and looked at the group of three before opening its mouth and letting out a roar. "Roar!!!!!!!!!!" It uncurled its huge scaled body and raised its head high into the air looking to see which one of the puny beings to eat first. But before it could decide, an orange and red fiery ball of light smashed into its head, causing it to feel pain. "Rooooaarrr!!!!"

Vance tossed a few more fireballs at the boss before using minor taunt three times in a row. This really gained the boss's attention as it struck out with its head, trying to bite at Vance. Vance raised his sword and collided head on with the head of the boss, causing the room to shake but instead of being tossed back, Vance parried and slid to the side of the boss and slashed down onto its neck. "Start attacking!"

"Hah!" Sally cried out as she spun her body around and used a double slash skill in the boss before flipping backwards. The boss then had a bunch of ice spears raining down on its head aimed at its eyes, causing it to roar out in anger once more. Vance also did not stop attacking. He wanted to get his fight over as quickly as possible.

[Boss]

[Half Dragon: Spangangoon]

[Level]: 18

[HP]: 95000/100000

[MP]: 2000/2000

The group kept attacking while the boss continued trying to attack Vance with its mouth, trying to bite him in half. This series of attacks continued for almost fifteen minutes when the boss suddenly reared its head. Seeing this, Vance yelled out: "Breath attack!"

Vance quickly moved to his right, not daring to get caught up in such an attack. The boss roared and let out a powerful wind based breath attack that shattered the rocking ground creating a massive ditch in the dungeon floor.

Right after that, the boss's body began to turn. Seeing this, Vance one more shouted out: "Tail whip! Move back!"

Sally quickly retreated at a quick speed. Alice was actually already out of range since she was a ranged attacker anyway. So by the time the boss's tail swept past them, they were all already out of range. As soon as the tail passed, Vance yelled out: "Keep attacking! Minor Taunt!"

The group kept attacking over and over, following the same patterns,  until the boss's help dropped past half health. This was when glowing spots began to form on the floor of the boss room. "Watch the floors but keep attacking!"

Vance had to admit he was impressed with how smoothly this was going. Everyone was following his orders easily and without question. He had been keeping an eye on both girls and watched their movements thus far, and each time he yelled out, they acted instantly with no hesitation. This made it seem like the future was going to be much easier for the three of them as they began fighting stronger and stronger monsters and bosses.

Towers of flames shot up towards the ceiling turning the whole boss room into a hell fire. Each burst of flames lasted five seconds, and each time, they shot up at a different spot. This was then incorporated into the other two attacks.

But because everyone was on their toes and their reaction times were good, the group was able to come out with little to no injuries. Healing callouts sounded out all over. Mostly for Vance, who was still taking the boss. He still had no official armor on, if you do not count the belt. This floor had been lucky on drops for the unique elite, and they would get drops for the boss, but the trash mobs dropped little to nothing besides crafting materials.

The battle kept going until finally, the boss let out one last roar and collapsed to the floor before turning into balls of light. A pile of items was left behind. Vance walked over and smiled when he saw the blue handled sword sticking out of the ground.

[Scaled Striker]

[Rarity: Rare]

[Required Level: 18]

[+120 Damage]

[+30 Strength]

[+10 Agility]

Vance quickly equipped the sword with a big smile on his face. He had never gotten this sword before, but it was a good replacement for his basic iron sword. Just this alone and his single level from the boss experience was enough to make him jump for joy! He dumped his 10 skill status points into Mind and 5 into strength. His current stats looked pretty good for his current level.
