Chapter 1315: Shahram

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

This was the most famous God of Defence.

The Inscriptor was a newly added Trade Skill in Dawn. It was a manufacturing profession based on herbs and inscriptions. For now, only Magic profession players or players with a sizeable mana pool could take up this Trade Skill. This Trade Skill could improve the player’s skills and buff their skills’ effects.

Not only could Inscriptors produce inscriptions, but they could also craft some special books, ornaments and even Darkmoon Cards for other players. The Inscriptor Trade Skill was very useful, and a competent Inscriptor could bring many benefits to themselves and their friends.

These were basic items that were very useful, but that didn’t mean they were the most profitable.

The most profitable items for an Inscriptor were their scrolls. Even after the glyph system was introduced, Inscriptors were still able to make a living by creating scrolls.

The scroll that Azure Sea Breeze had in his hands was one of the most exquisite scrolls on the market. What made it so valuable was that its raw materials were very rare. Even if you had the money, you might not be able to acquire it. If you had this scroll, you could hire Dawn’s best Main Tank for half of a day of Instance Dungeon-ing.

What he was tearing up now was not just a scroll, but a sack of gold coins!

After tearing the scroll, Azure Sea Breeze’s eyes were a little red. It was almost like he had gone crazy to kill his inner demon.

Wandering delayed it for a little longer, but not enough to reach the third stage. When the two inner demons died, the Boss looked deflated. Not only did he fail to regenerate its strength, but he also seemed to have gotten weaker.

“Kill him quickly; don’t let him go Berserk!” Lu Li’s cried out as his eyes lit up.

The probability of a Boss going Berserk was very high, especially the final Boss of an Instance Dungeon. The most important factor affecting the chance of a Boss going Berserk was combat time. The longer they took, the more likely the Boss was to go Berserk. Conversely, Bosses that were in a weakened state had almost no chance of going Berserk, and would not even be much more powerful if they did.

However, this weakened state wouldn’t last forever, and the probability of going Berserk would normalize once it ended.

As such, Lu Li implored everyone to focus and kill the Boss quickly. This wasn’t an unreasonable task – the two guards still had plenty of HP left and they would be able to persevere until the end as long as nothing out of the ordinary happened.

General Drakkisath looked at these small and weak adventurers, unable to understand how this had happened.

His eyebrows were tight and his forehead was wrinkled. His anger had accumulated to the point where he wanted to explode. There was some energy brewing from within him, but he couldn’t release it because he was in a weakened state.

Lu Li watched helplessly as Drakkisath’s weakness faded. He knew that they had missed their opportunity.

Drakkisath lifted the Blackblade of Shahram and muttered a few words under his breath. Everyone watched as the Blackblade started to smoke, before morphing into a serpent monster.

The snake’s body was covered in hard thorns and a blazing flame. The weapon that he was holding in his hands was the Blackblade of Shahram and this was Shahram – the bravest officer of Ragnaros his majesty.

As soon as he appeared, fierce flames spread throughout the hall and the players began to take area of effect damage.

This power was unmatched!

There was just no other way to describe it!

“In the name of Ragnaros, Lord Shahram, let us destroy them! Your Blackblade will continue your mission!”

“Yes, I will consecrate everything for my master until the flames on my body have been completely extinguished,” the snake hissed as he opened his scarlet eyes and his slender tongue flickered.

The Boss held up the fiery sword before declaring, “Blackblade of Shahram, rend their flesh with your blade!”

“Everyone, use your damage reduction skills!” Lu Li shouted.

Lu Li activated the special effects of his Supreme Ring to prevent the damage. The Blackblade rolled up and cut into all the players. Fortunately, this was just a game, or else they would have all been chopped in half.

The damage was extremely high. All 15 players, including the Main Tank had less than half HP remaining.

If Lu Li hadn’t asked everyone to cast their damage reduction skills, many of them would have died already. What surprised Lu Li was that the two guards hadn’t died to the attack.

However, after observing them, he quickly realized why.

Feign Death – When you receive any fatal attack, your max HP is set to 10% instead and damage taken is reduced by 80% for 3 seconds.

The Thief’s Feign Death was different to the Hunter’s Feign Death. The effect of Feign Death was to nullify the skills that were about to hit, and make opponents lose their targets. Even if attacker was a monster, their aggro would be completely nullified. It was a complete self-preservation skill.

This skill wasn’t a luxury that most players had at this stage, and it also came with its disadvantages.

No matter how much HP you had, you would be left with 10% max HP after using the skill. If you were at full HP, you would basically almost be dead.

However, the two guards didn’t have to worry about this problem. Their original HP was already lower than 10%, so they had actually been healed.

The players immediately launched a counterattack. Even if they were fighting Raganaros or Nefarian, they would have to kill them with their summoned monsters. However, they soon found out that both General Drakkisath and Shahram were invulnerable.

“How do we fight this? We can’t hit either of them!”

“If you can’t hit them, then stop attacking. There’s no point attacking them now. Otherwise, the game company wouldn’t have designed it this way,” Lu Li said calmly.

If they had killed the Boss while it was in its weakened state, then they wouldn’t have to deal with this, but since they couldn’t, they had to survive these two minutes. Once this was over, Shahram would vanish and General Drakkisath would re-enter his weakened state.

“Wandering, don’t tank that one – go and get the aggro of General Drakkisath while Breezy takes the aggro of Shahram. Make sure to pull them apart,” Lu Li said.

Wandering was originally going to take Shahram’s aggro. When he heard Lu Li speak, he quickly turned around to take General Drakkisath’s aggro instead. It was difficult for Wandering to take the aggro from Azure Sea Breeze normally, but since it was voluntary, there was no difficulty.

Shahram was one of Ragnaros’ officers. His body had been enchanted with fire, which made it unmatched in fire damage.

Wandering’s Fire Resistance equipment was exquisite, but it was still weaker than Azure Sea Breeze’s. Lu Li didn’t think that he could tank Shahram’s attacks, which was why he asked them to swap. General Drakkisath was Berserk, but this only had the effect of summoning Shahram. He wasn’t actually buffed by very much.

The two guards once again surprised Lu Li.

They were actually running away!

To the surprise, they had escaped the battle with something resembling a smoke bomb. After they vanished from the scene, even Lu Li’s high Detection was unable to sense if they were still nearby.
