Redo! Last Chance for a Dying World!

Chapter 63: Intense Fight

The distraction from the arrow gave Geth enough time to throw up a Barrier and retreat. Of course, it wasn't long, but it helped. By the time the Chief focused its attention back on Geth and the Barrier he'd had another tick of healing and regained some MP.

Geth glanced towards where the arrow had come from and he saw that the entire party had made it unscathed, he sighed in relief. They were only 50 yards away or so.

The Boss had looked behind him, but seeing the party wasn't enough to redirect its fury. As it shattered the barrier, Geth saw Hulk lean unnaturally far forward with his shield.

When he was almost parallel with the ground, his body sprang forward like it had been shot from a cannon. The man flew for the last 25 yards and his shield smashed into the back of the four-armed boss.

The Chief was startled and lost its balance, stumbling a couple of steps forward but not falling. Geth took the opportunity to create some more distance while yelling towards Hulk.

"Do you think you can tank it?" Geth called.

Hulk yelled back, "I can give you two minutes at most!"

Geth nodded and created more distance while casting another Barrier. Hulk's shield momentarily shined red and the boss's aggro was instantly changed.

'An aggro Skill?' Geth thought with intrigue. 'Something like that would keep me from having to bait for so long.'

It was like the Chief had completely forgotten about him for the moment. Based on Hulk's response, Geth assumed that the Skill would hold aggro for two minutes, and then the Boss would go back to its most hated target.

'Two minutes is more than enough. I can recover over 400 MP even after casting Restoration on Hulk once.'

Another arrow fired at Chief Bane from a distance, this time hitting it in the front of the same shoulder. It looked as if Filthy was trying to cripple one of its arms.

Geth watched as Hulk blocked two blades with his shield and parried another with his sword. The fourth blade coming from the creature's injured arm seemed to have lost some power. It still struck Hulk in the thigh, causing 60 damage.

'If all of its arms can be crippled like that, I should be able to tank with no issue.' He thought, noticing that Zolis had just appeared beside him.

"What is this monster's deal? You look pretty beaten up." She grimaced and nodded towards his heavily scarred left arm.

"You can see the flames coming from its blades. They are consuming its MP quickly, I was only able to burn him down close to half.

We need to make the thing burn through its Mana and the rest of the fight should be easy. Get closer to Filthy and send him a message to keep crippling its arms.

Hulk and I will alternate tanking while the brothers whittle it down from behind. The moment it runs out of MP get in and start dealing heavy damage." Geth gave his instructions quickly and Zolis didn't waste time taking off.

The brothers had just gotten to Hulk. Harris and Farris were standing on each side of him, when they could do so safely they would block one of the Boss' strikes. Even after blocking, all of them would take a bit of damage over time due to the reach of the flames.

Geth nodded, the three had definitely learned to better fight as a group.

'Albus, he should have 30 seconds of aggro left. Inform the three of them to deal as much damage as possible to its arms while I tank. Also, tell Hulk to only grab aggro every five minutes.'

'Very well.' Albus responded calmly.

The brothers glanced his way and nodded a moment later. Hulk didn't respond, he couldn't afford to become distracted. Geth cast Restoration on him to let the shield give him some reprieve.

He could tell that the man felt relief as he started to become more aggressive with his movements. '15 seconds to go.'

The Boss had already lost a few thousand health, bringing it very close to 45,000. Filthy's arrows were doing a few hundred per hit, one of them had hit for over 800.

Time was up. The Chief glared for a split second at Hulk and then turned to charge at Geth.

'I guess I really did piss it off.' He chuckled as he raised his staff to block the swords that were already being directed at his neck. The other two bit into his freshly healed arm, ripping the recently repaired skin apart.

Geth could tell that the attacks had been greatly weakened. Even though his flesh was cut, the blades barely bit into his muscle. The fight had become much easier.

The trio had already closed in on the Chief, hacking at the backs of its four shoulders. Its physical resistance was extremely high, but the constant attacks were enough to wear it down.

Chief Bane's HP dropped gradually while Geth was tanking. 'Once Zolis joins this should be over quickly.'

:Chief Goblin Bane (Level 35); HP- 40,752/52500:

Three slashes to its top left shoulder.

:Chief Goblin Bane (Level 35); HP- 34,361/52500:

Two more arrows to its right bicep.

:Chief Goblin Bane (Level 35); HP- 28,448/52500:

BANG! An up-close hit from Hulk's shield charge.

:Chief Goblin Bane (Level 35); HP- 19,962/52500:

At this point, the Chief's last quarter of MP plummeted to 0 all at once. The monster's body slowly began to enlarge as his skin turned into a pale red.

It was Hulk's turn to tank and he still had about 10 seconds left. Chief Bane's swords erupted into a much larger flame as the creature swung all four down onto Hulk at once.

Hulk raised his shield above his head, bracing with both hands. Geth quickly cast Barrier twice between the shield and the incoming swords.

The Barriers were smashed through instantly, a large explosion occurred blinding everyone in the area.
