Chapter 123: There's Always A Bigger Oddball (1)
The BOSS of the third challenge was Soul s.n.a.t.c.hing Envoy. Its gimmick was crude and simple – it could blow itself up. This would happen when its Health dropped below 15%, and the resulting explosion would completely ignore the defences of all players within the range of the explosion, instantly killing them in the process.
In short, the BOSS' ability to blow itself up aside, Soul s.n.a.t.c.hing Envoy was far easier to deal with than the previous two BOSSes.
However, Shen Jingbin felt that to her, this BOSS was much harder than the other two instead.
The reason had nothing to do with the BOSS itself, but rather it was because of Master Of Mourning.
Although she hadn't actually done anything to him, Master Of Mourning's hatred for her had turned his distorted perception of the previous events into reality. While they'd only been in contact with each other for ten or so minutes, everyone could tell just what kind of person Master of Mourning was.
It'd be downright strange if he didn't try to take revenge against her.
That being said, Master Of Mourning's narrow-mindedness closely resembled Nine Ballads.
Shen Jingbin kept a close eye on Master Of Mourning's actions as she stayed at the back of the group and hurled skills at the BOSS.
"Be careful, the BOSS is at 16% Health," Mistress Of Lost Splendor had been keeping track of Soul s.n.a.t.c.hing Envoy's Health throughout the fight, and she issued a reminder as soon as the BOSS' Health dropped to 16%.
Everyone immediately prepared to escape from the BOSS' blast radius when they heard this.
As she'd been keeping a close eye on Master of Mourning and maintaining her distance from him, she caught sight of him turning to dash towards her. Once he realised that she was too far away, he reluctantly s.h.i.+fted his attention and ran towards Adoorable who was nearer instead.
Liches were a close combat cla.s.s. As such, Master Of Mourning was right at the forefront and constantly plastered against the BOSS while he attacked. Before the BOSS detonated itself, it would target whoever was closest to it, which naturally led to Master Of Mourning becoming the target of its ire.
A fear of making another mistake and enraging Master Of Mourning once again had taken root in Adoorable's heart, prompting her to constantly shower him with Healing and status ailment recovery spells. It was far too late by the time she noticed his malicious intentions.
By this time, the BOSS had already been lured towards Adoorable by Master Of Mourning.
