15 Chapter 15 (2/2)
Rarity: Normal
Equippable in Level 10
Description: Gloves meant to be used for camouflage in the forest. However, the vibrant color green made it more noticeable.
I see, a Green Glove. It was usually dropped by Green Spiders and most of the time, they are only normal ones. Its a bit ugly to wear but due to its high defense it felt okay. I also got 2 of the target items. The reason it dropped two is due to the fact that it usually drop 2 unless one was dismembered accidentally.
I quickly searched for the rest of the Spiders. Since it usually drops 2 fangs, its quite easy now for me. I don't need to be afraid of dying. Not long before I killed the first one, I saw another one. Its currently eating a Swamp Fly, a creature that appears in this area. Before it can notice me, I dashed forward and repeated the attack. However, it did not trigger the Slash Wound since the Green Spider guarded using its carapace which its main defense. It quickly spewed out a green liquid and I failed to dodge it this time.
”You are inflicted with Poison! You will lose 10 HP per second!”
”You are inflicted with Corrosion! You will lose 10 Durability for 5 seconds!”
”Sh*t!” I muttered. I pulled out my Poison Potion and drank the contents. Its bitter and sour, in other words, awful. But I recovered and no longer suffered from Poison debuff.
The main crap I hated is the fact that I was inflicted with Corrosion. My armor was hit and my defense reduced greatly. I gritted my teeth before slashing once more against the Green Spider, slicing it in half. I sighed in relief. This guys cannot be underestimated. They can inflict this crap easily. I cannot let my guard down.
I hunted a few of the Green Spiders for a while and I managed to get 23 Green Spider Fang. I still need 7 pieces though. I also lost a lot of Poison Potion which is a big lose for me. As I was searching, a notification appeared.
”You found the Lair of the Green Spider Queen. Do you want to enter?”
Sh*t. I did not expect to reach this far! The Lair of the Green Spider Queen is known as the habitat of the Area Boss. Green Spider Queen is a bit harder to beat than the Gate Guardian. I didn't notice it until the system notified me about it since I am more focused on earning the Green Spider Fangs.
Green Spider Queen is the queen of the Spiders that are living here and are capable of commanding a whole army of Green Spiders. This boss is hard to deal when you are not in a party and you also don't possess any Poison Resistance effect or Poison Immunity. I raided this place before and I am having a hard time surviving. Luckily, I was in a party that time so I didn't end up dead that time. However, we used too much time beating it up. It has four HP bars on its head and it is pretty menacing to look at.
But even though it was too menacing, the awards are lucrative. This one drops 10 Green Spider Fangs which is equivalent fighting 5 Green Spiders. It also drop the Poison Resistance Rune. An item that helps you awaken your poison resistance without keeping on getting poisoned. It also drop a good Armor which will be a good replacement to my Beginner Armor. I checked my inventory and I still have 5 bottles of Poison Potion. This is barely enough but I guess it will do.
I eliminated most of the Green Spiders around so I won't be troubled once the Green Spider Queen uses her skill, ”Call the Guards”. This skill calls the surrounding Green Spiders to do the bidding of the Queen which is annoying if you didn't slay the Green Spiders near its vicinity.
As I entered the Lair, the towering boss is already in front of me.
Green Spider Queen
Level 15
HP: 1,000,000/1,000,000
Attribute: Poison
Area Boss
I can't miss this chance to gain the first kill on this monster. First kills has a good reward awaiting which will be a good way to make a good chance of fame to me. Besides, I will be earning tons of Exp on this which will be beneficial for me for clearing the first dungeon.
However, killing this requires strategy and I am only 50% confident that I can kill this one. Green Spider Queen is quite fast and can kill anyone without giving too much fight at all. Its a boss after all. But since I am already a team myself, I will just utilize all of my abilities. Since I gained a few SP after mastering a few of the weapons and from leveling up, I better learn the Paladin's Healing Heart skill, Sanctuary of the Sick, and the Clerics' Divine Healing. I won't last if I face against this without these skills. I can't make myself die just like that again.
The Green Spider Queen is a massive and towering creature. Despite its big body, it can move easily without trouble and has a swift attack patterns. I already knew its attack pattern but this isn't easy. Killing this boss right now is like punching a titanium steel door to make a hole in it. This boss will unleash different attacks which are all hard to follow and its habits of unleashing an AOE skills after a Bar of health is drained. My task of opening the Dungeon is getting hard. This one will surely going to take a bit of my time.
