War Online

Chapter 26: Cerberus

As soon as he unlocked it, the gate was pushed with tremendous force from inside and Williard flew back with a huge 40313 damage on his head.

As he stabilized himself with his wings and healed himself with the basic heal, a Giant three-headed hound with a large pair of red eyes stepped out of the prison.

Cerberus (Heroic)

Level: 100

HP: 12,000,000/12,000,000

Description: The dangerous beast, which used to be a Guardian and the ruler of the barren lands but after being corrupted by demonic energy in the War of the millennium, the beast now was imprisoned and was serving as the Guardian for the dungeon of Hell. It doesn't recognize allies or foes and knows nothing but destruction.

Looking at it, Williard smiled as the description says it's a demonic beast. That means his damage against this beast can be increased by 50% more.

As Remia used to provoke, Cerberus used its claws to attack her but only 2132 appeared on her head but it still shocked Williard as he never saw other than 1 number on her head since Guardians get 40% DR passive bonus after level 100.

Coupled with her more than 23K defense, it's almost impossible for any monster to land a normal hit on her if they don't use their specific skill or gone berserk.

Despite the monster having 10000 Defense, his level 2 Earth Golem was able to deal with damages like 14621, 13124, 20412, 13219, 19931, etc because of his race advantage.

Meanwhile, he concentrated on healing Remia every few seconds so that her HP stays full while she was battling against the monster fiercely.

As its HP was depleted quickly, Williard sighed in relief, "I thought this one is the strongest but it seemed like this will fall even quicker than the others. Thank goodness, it only has one skill.

The bite that attacks with three of its heads successively in a second but still, it was only able to damage Remia by 50K. As long as I heal that much amount, there are no issues."

Just under 30 minutes, green aura began to emit from the three-headed hound as its HP depleted by 99% and he received a notification.

"Cerberus is in the final berserk state. 200% attack increase. 100% defense increase and decrease cooldown by half."

Cerberus (Heroic)

Level: 100

HP: 120,000/12,000,000

As soon as it reached the berserk state, it immediately used the triple bite skill on Remia and take out more than 150K HP from her.

Looking at the damage, Williard became panicked, "if it hits a couple of times, even Remia would die. That shouldn't happen. Unlike us, NPC can't be reborn again. Dammit. I shouldn't have used Absolute freeze, earlier.

Now there are more than 2 minutes until cool down ends and this berserk state is different from others.

How did I forget that? For above level 100 bosses, the berserk state will be different for each boss. I hope she would hold on 2 minutes more."

30 seconds later, Cerberus used triple bite again on Remia but this time, there's no damage done as she used level 70 Guardian Skill, Invincibility. And both the Golem and Remia continued their assaults. Since the hound's defense is now 20000, both of them can do damage like 3924, 4121, 4097, 3978, etc

While worrying about whether they would fail to kill the boss, something clicked in his mind and mumbled, "I wonder"

Looking at his MP, that is less than 50, he flew towards Cerberus and gathered his hands together, near his mouth and breathe the fire though it like blowing a trumpet, after investing 5 skill points to Dragon fire and increasing it level 7.

As he began to burn it, every second, 17812, 18012, 17723, 17641, 18023, 17999 damage numbers appeared on its head and turned into ash, followed by dropping many items on the ground.

Seeing it, Williard thought, "I'm really a fool for not realizing such a simple thing. Golem and I are the same. So, even if the defense is 20000, and for suppose if the golem's attack is just 14000, instead of 24000, my attack will be blocked by 6000 defense if it hit on the exact moment.

And both of our attacks are not in sync, then mine would be blocked by 20000 instead. Well, it's very hard to perfect the timing and only an expert can do it. I should also practice this combo.

This time only worked because it's Dragon Fire, which isn't instant damage but damage over time. Dammit! That means I wasted 5 Skill points for nothing. Even if I didn't invest, Dragon Fire would have worked perfectly."

As the boss turned to ash and left behind the items, as usual, Williard received a bunch of notifications.

"Cerberus died. You received 1,894,124 EXP."

"You reached the maximum limit. You cannot receive anymore EXP. Your EXP will be transferred to your party members."

"Congratulations, you are the first player in East Ocean kingdom to kill the corrupted Guardian of the city, Cerberus. You are awarded 500 fame, 1 gold, and earned a title: Demon Hunter as a reward."

"Congratulations, you are the first player in the Llyne Kingdom to kill a Corrupted Guardian. You are awarded 1000 fame, 3 gold, and earned an audience with the King of Llyne Kingdom as a reward."

"Eh? the others before me managed to kill this boss? It's impossible without a huge party and most of the players are around level 60s and 70s now. So, I guess they used the same method?"

As he took out his Silver Nobility badge and pressed in the middle where a winged Lion was drawn on, it absorbed all the remaining 7500 fame. But still, it didn't turn to gold yet. "1000 fame has been consumed before and 7500, now.

So, there's still 1500 fame needed to become a Count. Ok, let's take a look at the drops. I hope I would get a bow, if not, at least a gold grade weapon."

As Williard searched the pile of items, he threw away the common, Iron and Bronze equipment and then throw all the rest of them in the inventory without even looking at them, even if they are of gold grade and finally, in the bottom of the pile, he saw two glowing weapons. One is a sword and the other is a bow.

"Perfect. Now, I have two gold grade weapons. I guess the luck returned to me again."

He threw the sword inside his inventory after confirming that it's a level 100 gold grade Sword and then, as he inspected the composite bow, Williard was taken aback and cursed out involuntarily, "Holy Mot*** f****** S***"

He immediately replaced the Silver Bow with this Epic Bow. And then, took out a gold grade equip he threw into the inventory to take a look.

Williard sighed, "I didn't get a light armor to replace the level 40 one. I guess l have to kill it again once it revives."

After adding 12 attribute points into HP and crossing the 100K HP mark, he inspected his stats before setting out to the city to meet the Mayor and then, proceed to the Volcano Island, where Archangel Seraph's tomb is located and pay his respects.
