chapter-1355
Vayu is fighting against a field boss that is called the Desert Fiend Fox. It is a monster that uses manipulation of its pheromones to control or seduce anything in its area of effect. It also has six tails that is able to stretch which also hits like a truck.
Each of the tails can also be used as a way to defend when all curl up. This way of attack is what the Desert Fiend Fox uses on order to destroy any enemy it cannot hypnotize with its pheromones. Vayu made sure to always circulate the air near him so that his nose does not pick up on the scent of the Desert Fiend Fox.
He would then use the air currents to guide him in where he needs to attack as his fighting style continued to evolve. If one were to say that he is a swordsman that is one with the wind then that is the perfect description of him. Vayu is also making use of his ability to read the change in air flow to perfectly dodge all the attacks of the tails.
Fighting at a bit of distance from Vayu is Lycan. He is currently doing battle with a monster called the Bristle Back Coyote. It is a coyote monster that has porcupine needles coming out of its back. It also has the ability to release these poison coated needles to the direction it chooses.
If Lycan did not have great poison resistance, then he would have fallen down by now. The poison barely damages him but he cannot easily get in position against the Bristle Back Coyote. The Bristle Back Coyote uses an attack pattern of quickly turning its back onto its opponent.The Bristle Back Coyote might not be the fastest, but it has quick reflexes. The quills that come out from its back is also very tough in nature when clumped together. The only way for Lycan do deal real damage is to aim for its underbelly or crush the quills behind its back. If it was not close to nighttime, then he will not be that confident in defeating it.
Thankfully for Lycan, Adrian made sure that he is fully supported. Adrian would send out Saena to each of the people handling a field boss to heal them and cleanse any status abnormalities. He became courageous due to this and thought of taking every quill of the Bristle Back Coyote's back.
A bit far from the both of them is a battle between two beings that can control fire. Soleil is fighting against another monster called the Desert Flame. It was a monster that is created by a wandering evil spirit gaining the power of the desert fumes that produces fire.
The two are basically fighting of who is the one that can truly control fire. Soleil is not even using Regulus to defeat the Desert Flame as she is only using her mastery of the fire element. The Desert Flame can only respond the same way as it does not have any other form of attack.
The other monsters cannot even get near them because they would burn up the moment, they step up near them. If anyone can see two gigantic pillars of fire in the distance, then that would be the Desert Flame and Soleil. Adrian does not even bother helping her as she was not even having a difficult time dealing with the field boss and she was not even exerting her all.
The one that took an enemy that he can easily win against is Ark as he is against a monster called Desert Recluse Spider. It was a monster that does not like the light as it uses the sand to hide from sight and only strike when it detects its prey in front of it. It also contains the darkness element which makes the light element dangerous for it.
Ark has the best teachers for the light element, and he could wield it by instinct. He has great mastery over the darkness element as well but he does not have a good teacher to guide him in that way. He did say that there have been demons that tried to contact him as the gate to Hell has already solidified.To the left of Ark is Creepysoo who is fighting a Desert Pronghorn Ghoul. It is an undead monster that has the appearance of a small antelope. Its horns and head are lit up in an eerie blue flame to signify that is has already turned into an undead.
Creepysoo did not have difficulty against the Desert Pronghorn Ghoul as it did not have many attacks. It usually just rams its head to any enemy it encounters and relies on the regeneration of its undead body to recover any damage. The tactic is not effective against Creepysoo though as he is the Prince of the Undead where even undead can be applied with his curses or hexes.
The only problem that Creepysoo is encountering is that there are smaller undead desert monsters that follow the Desert Pronghorn Ghoul. He is bombarded with the attacks of numerous undead, but he can hold on due to his undead knights. Creepysoo is also getting a lot of death energy with each undead monster he puts to rest.
The one with the nickname from players as Queen of the Night is currently battling a monster called the Desert Barbarian Ostrich. It was an ostrich monster that have two heads with beaks containing sharp teeth like a shark. It is also a monster that only eats the meat of others as blood is also its favorite nourishment.
The Desert Barbarian Ostrich also has muscular legs that can destroy steel with one kick. It can also use magic as well since one of its heads contains a magic stone bead on its forehead. One might think that it is stupid as it was called a barbarian, but it was only named like that because it is always out for blood.
It can even use support magic on its body to make it stronger to make it run as fast as lightning. Its body is also protected constantly by strengthening magic as one of its head can always use magic while the other controls the movement. It is a perfect opponent against a balanced fighter like Solstice but she is still waiting for night to come.
The sun is still up but it is already setting but that would also mean that the monsters will become stronger. Solstice is waiting for the perfect moment to attack as she already studied the way how the Desert Barbarian Ostrich moves.
The ones that the other members were fighting are not the only field bosses as Adrian's soulbounds are also fighting three others. Sirius, Kanlaon and Saena are fighting against other field bosses while the other guild members are focused on support. Adrian is focused on managing the whole battlefield and he already spotted a few suspicious individuals.
Adrian already marked them secretly as he used mirrors to monitor these individuals. They do not seem people that are from the western continent from the way they are dressed. They are also exuding the putrid energy signature that the Shadow of Apophis released.
"Awraka, make sure to mark them." Adrian commanded as he sent a whisper to Awraka.
Awraka is filled with delight as her idol gave him a command, but fangirling must come later. She instructed two other scout guild members to take note of the others. They would not have marked them as troublesome if they started attacking the monster horde, but they are just standing there as if they are waiting for something to happen to the temple.
Adrian thought that they are observing because there is no change in the flow of the battle. He thought of doing something to make the suspicious party move. Adrian used all of the power that his mirrors absorbed and destroyed a field boss with it. It was not a field boss that his other guild members were attacking but his soulbounds.
Due to the sudden shift in power, the other soulbounds also destroyed the field bosses assigned to them. When the field bosses died, some of the monsters became utterly weak as they were no longer buffed. It also made the battle against the other field bosses much easier.
Seeing that the monster horde was becoming weak, the suspicious people no longer stayed observing and started to move. One of them suddenly took of their hood and revealed a bald head that has the tattoo of a black scaled serpent. The bald headed person is not alone as the others that came with him took of their cloaks and are the same.
These people with the tattoo of Apophis etched in their entire body were actually its followers. It seems that the Shadow of Apophis did not just recover its power by its early awakening but by human intervention. The followers of Apophis suddenly started to pray, and night came early because of them.
