Hellfire Man activated his financial power, and the noble players under his command surged forward, launching a frantic challenge against the Golden Dragon Knight.
"I have to admit, the newly emerged top guilds do have some skill, the Golden Dragon Knight's health is finally starting to drop."
"Watch carefully, all their noble players are poison-infused thieves, and even some dark magic users. Charging forward like that only helps Golden Dragon Knight stack damage buffs."
"Not bad, they've got some tricks up their sleeves!"
Everyone was slightly surprised, realizing what was going on and feeling a mix of shock.
Though many from Hellfire Guild had been wiped out before they even touched the dragon knight, once they landed their skills, Golden Dragon Knight started to accumulate negative buffs.
[Cursed Strike] and [Dark Holy Text] were just C-tier awakened skills.
They had long cooldowns and didn't do much damage, so they rarely sold in the auction house.
But these two negative buffs could last up to two minutes and could be stacked up to thirty times.
At full stack, they could increase damage dealt by three times and reduce the target's health regeneration speed.
Being the leader of a top-tier guild, it was clear that Hellfire and Glory Seekers Guild had been preparing for this moment. They spent a huge amount of resources making sure their players had these C-tier skills maxed out, setting up the final blow for their leaders.
Slaughter Spree: "This is bad, the health's dropping to 20%. At this rate, they might actually succeed!"
"Boss, I propose we clear the field now," said one of Slaughter's executives coldly.
Demon Emperor, with his sharp eagle eyes, focused on the arena, his presence as solid as a mountain. He said softly, "They don't have a chance."
As soon as his words fell, Golden Dragon Knight's health dropped below 20%.
With a roar, Bibienne, the Golden Dragon Knight, released a massive dragon's roar, exuding overwhelming power!
Golden Dragon's body flared, and golden light spread across the battlefield like the sun, shining far and wide!
The 30 layers of buffs stacked after a hundred-plus players died all vanished in an instant.
Bibienne, with a swift flick of her dragon spear, instantly killed the thieves around her.
"I am the king! Who dares challenge me? Death is your fate!"
Bibienne laughed maniacally as golden light erupted around her, and her health, which had been low, began to rise rapidly!
Dragon Knight Battle Tactic: Blood of the Holy Dragon!
Her health regeneration speed surged by dozens of times!
+100,000!
+100,000!
...
The crowd below stared, dumbfounded. The Golden Dragon Knight's health, which was supposed to be nearly gone, had recovered close to a million in just a few seconds!
Blank's eyes narrowed: "The hand holding the spear has switched from the right arm to the left. We're entering the final boss phase."
Hellfire Man's face changed dramatically, clearly unaware of the boss mechanics. He shouted, "Don't let it keep healing! Keep stacking buffs!"
Another group of players rushed in, but this time, Golden Dragon Knight changed tactics.
Golden Dragon Knight's expression turned murderous. As players entered the arena, they were instantly killed by a beam of golden light, not even given a chance to stack their buffs!
With Golden Dragon Knight's health rising, all their previous efforts seemed to be wasted.
Hellfire Man and Magical Fiancée exchanged a glance, and both could no longer hold back, deciding to enter the fray themselves!
"Ah… I won't accept this!"
Just moments later, Hellfire Man screamed as his Lord-Class battle beast, the Fire Phoenix, was torn apart by the Holy Dragon. Blood rained down, and there was nothing left but scraps.
"There's no point in continuing. This boss is unbeatable."
Magical Fiancée sighed lightly. Her S-class petrification magic, Medusa's Curse, which could petrify targets for 5-10 minutes, only managed to control Golden Dragon Knight for less than a minute.
The terrifying magic resistance of a Saint Lord-Class dragon was evident.
Meanwhile, her Domain Lord-Class Chimera, having received 10 layers of Gravity Buff, was almost crushed by its own increased weight.
Even with their best efforts, two top S-class professionals, and two high-quality Soul Seals, Golden Dragon Knight's health kept increasing.
Millions of players were left in stunned silence, watching as the boss, as Magical Fiancée had said, was truly invincible.
The so-called Public Dungeon was merely a waste of players' time.
"So strong! I can learn a lot from this battle!"
Just as everyone was losing hope and about to disperse, a light laugh echoed through the arena.
Everyone looked up in surprise, and to their shock, a Holy Silver Dragon descended onto the stage like a silver ribbon.
Silver Dragon Knight King!
Drunken Dream!
Accompanied by his NPC companion Lilith, he launched a new challenge against the Golden Dragon Knight!
Golden Dragon Knight Bibienne scoffed arrogantly, as prideful as ever, and allowed for the use of helpers!
Silver battle aura soared into the sky!
Clang!
"Let's go again!"
Drunken Dream roared with battle fervor and managed to block Golden Dragon Knight's deadly instant strike as it landed!
His superb combat skills sent shockwaves through the crowd below.
Lilith, the Platinum Duchess' daughter and a 70-level Domain Lord-Class NPC, played a crucial role in boosting Drunken Dream's strength.
"This Silver Dragon Knight is unreal! It's like having a cheat in battle!"
"The shield on his body is still thick, and Golden Dragon Knight's regular attacks can't break through it!"
Drunken Dream, a master of the essence of fighting, had a shield up before the battle even started.
Lilith had cast layers of white shields on him, providing high damage reduction.
"Under the boss's berserk state, he endured for 2 minutes and 31 seconds!"
"Too bad. The Imperial Champion is terrifying. Without the Golden Dragon, his power would probably be stronger than Bibienne's!"
"Damn… every hit is a fatal crit, nearly killed Lilith."
"Too bad. If not for seeing his companion about to fall, Drunken Dream might have lasted even longer!"
The golden dragon tore through the sky, also tearing Drunken Dream apart.
As his wife's health hit rock bottom, Drunken Dream let out a helpless laugh.
Though he struck down a million health from Golden Dragon Knight, he was forced to remove his gear and die, stepping off the arena.
"Still healing… This damn Golden Dragon Knight, it's too ridiculous! The healing buff can't be interrupted, right?"
The players below shuddered. There were plenty of dark mages and thieves among them who had skills to reduce healing, but in this moment, they found themselves powerless.
It was a ridiculous scene.
The arena environment heavily favored the Golden Dragon Knight, and fragile mages and thieves were suicidal if they challenged a Dragon Knight.
However, even top-tier warriors and knights couldn't interrupt Golden Dragon Knight's healing...
James glared at the rival Lambert family.
Turning to Demon Emperor, he said, "Hold back, let Alexander go first! His battle beast is dark-elemental, it counters Golden Dragon Knight's healing. You go in afterward to challenge."
"James, do you think he won't think the same thing?" Blank snapped.
James flushed and retorted, "What depth does he have? He's just a brute."
Demon Emperor's expression darkened. He did have ways to reduce healing, but with Alexander not making a move, it bothered him.
He had learned an important lesson through some experiences—
Never act prematurely, or it will only backfire!
"Our Dragon Knights will reign supreme in a hundred battles! We'll fight again at The Golden House!"
The Silver Dragon Knight stood tall, speaking with unmatched pride. The crowd, filled with awe, felt that though he lost, he had achieved a great honor.
If they could stand up to Golden Dragon Knight, then as Dragon Beast owners, why couldn't they do the same?
Moments later, six low-tier dragons flew overhead, and the top players from other guilds couldn't sit still any longer.
