The bear stood right in front of everyone silently, and it even bent its body slightly in order to block the wind, utilizing its massive body to provide the perfect shelter for everyone. A spring breeze swept through the area with the boss at the center, all of it taken down by the bear.

It slid back a bit, but stood upright, its broad back looking incredibly reliable at this moment, like a giant mountain holding up a sky for everyone.

The group instantly discussed.

“For the first time I think the bear as a summoned beast looks so kawaii.”

“Suddenly I understand why there’s a profession limit, bringing a summoner flips it.”

“Summoner is coming out of the sewer? ! Dungeon employment has a doorway!”

Su Mo, “FireworksAndLanterns takes over, you drive bear protector, watch out, seeding may be coming.”

Spring Breeze comes once every 10 seconds, and Seeding is much harder to get a handle on the pattern.

The boss’s blood level was dropping 90% blood when the rhythm of the attack started to become erratic, besides the regular Spring Breeze, Seeding was popping up from time to time, like a harassment skill, always interrupting the team’s output cycle at critical moments.

Blood level 86%, Su Mo slightly frowned, boss naming skill has not yet come out.

“Crap! Firework! Your bear’s crotch is leaking!!!”

Watermelon’s voice had just come out when Spring Breeze blew him straight up into the air. A few of the closer ones were blown some distance away as well, and ScarletFruit, cowering at the bear’s feet with a grateful face, saw it and said, “You people, you have absolutely no idea of the finer points of cuddling.”

The others were speechless. 

Su Mo stood on the other side of the foot and looked ahead at the empty opening in the bear’s crotch, where the whistling wind had just blown, “…… You’ve got to get the bear to sit down.”

ClearWind, “Brother, he’s flying too.”

FireworksAndLanterns flew too, but rushed back, “Sorry sorry sorry, wasn’t this to leave a gap for you guys to fight the monsters? I accidentally left it a little too big.”

Su Mo warns, “Watch out, the next Spring breeze is coming.”

FireworksAndLanterns simply let the bear sit there like a mountain this time, while the others maneuvered to run up and output, mentally checking the time, and returning to hide next to the bear when the skill was about to come.

“Melee can stand in front of the output, pay attention to the low body, if you get blown away there is a bear to back you up.” Su Mo told FireworksAndLanterns to position the bear in another location to make sure the group wouldn’t be blown away, commanding, “Utilize the bear’s body and find the right spot to output, FireworksAndLanterns, remember the coordinates, switch bears when it’s almost time.”

FireworksAndLanterns , “No problem.”

Summoning a bear without dying, the summoning time is very short, basically no CD.

But once it died, the summoning CD would become longer, so as long as the bear was milked, it was the only shelter from the wind in this grassland.

Spring Breeze came along with Seeding, and several DPS immediately turned out to clear the small monsters after Spring Breeze ended. Just after clearing the small monsters, Su Mo keenly noticed that the gesture of the Son of Spring Realm standing on the tree in the center changed.

“Careful, there might be a bit of a Naming!” Su Mo scanned the blood level of the entire group and dropped into the distance, “Watermelon.”

‘Hee hee hee hee, WhatAHugeWatermelon, will you come be my feeder?’

Silently, the grass that emerged from the ground directly wrapped around Watermelon, who had just been left at half-blood by Spring Breeze, and with a stranglehold, his blood level was instantly cleared.

Watermelon, “!!!”

The Naming came very suddenly, and the attack almost acted together with the boss’s voice, so much so that Watermelon misjudged at the first moment and was entangled by a handful of grass under his feet.

ScarletFruit intended to go to the rescue, and he had just taken a few steps outside when the boss’s spring breeze came back.

He had to take a step back, and that’s when he saw a body being picked up by the wind and blown further away.

ScarletFruit, “????”

FireworksAndLanterns , “That’s kind of cool.”

ClearWind, “I think so too.”

Watermelon, “!!!”

The others looked away intolerantly and continued their output, ScarletFruit looked at the bodies that were getting farther and farther away, caught in a dilemma between being blown away and saving someone, “I suddenly know why no one on the forums wants to mention this boss, and I also understand why this dungeon is a 7-star, and it’s too much to actually whip the body when it’s dead! “

Watermelon said in the voice channel, “I’d be farther away if you didn’t come to my rescue.”

At that moment, another bear landed next to ScarletFruit.

Su Mo was succinct, “Save the others, everyone else full output, watch out for the Naming.”

The first Naming appeared, and Evocation Skill joined the boss’s output cycle. Watermelon was saved and milked to full blood by ScarletFruit, and the two of them borrowed Momo’s bear to rejoin the large group.

‘Hee hee hee hee, WhatAHugeWatermelon, will you come be my feeder?’

“Why are you ordering me again!?” Watermelon was strangled by the grass and lost 70% of his blood, and was urgently milked up by ScarletFruit.

Of all the Professions, the Assassins had the lowest blood level.

However, Watermelon’s blood level was lower than another assassin ZenSlasher in order to pile up high attacks, and managed to be the lucky one with the lowest blood level.

“With the entire group full of blood, you have the lowest blood level, and Naming will always come to you.” Su Mo and ScarletFruit said, “ScarletFruit, control the blood, make sure he has the lowest blood in the whole group.”

Watermelon, “Me???? Should I carry it?”

“You’re the most stable, it’s looking for you even when you’re full of blood, and you’re the one who drops blood the fastest, so you’re the most stable.” Su Mo said, “Don’t worry, our cleric is excellent.”

ScarletFruit was immediately hit by the chicken blood when he heard the praise, “Don’t worry Watermelon, I’ll make sure you’ll be the pup with the least amount of blood in the most group.”

FireworksAndLanterns envied, “Hey, how nice, you are the focus of healing.”

ScarletFruit, “You should be honored.”

Watermelon was speechless. The Evocation skill didn’t appear to be randomized, but in fact, with the constant sweep of Spring Breeze, its roll is always locked on the lowest blooded player, and Spring Breeze crippled others and the bloodline shifted, which in turn could make the Naming more random and more dangerous. At half-blood, its strangle is going to result in certain death.

The operation level of the group’s players was very high, so they were able to fight up to 70% of the fight so far without mass attrition occurring. Don’t think the boss’s skill were simple, but in fact, the three skills of group damage knockback + high attack minions + half-blooded spike, the chances of causing a large amount of attrition were very high in the event of the amount of healing not being able to keep up with it, as well as the players’ inferior positioning.

Coincidentally they brought two summoners, even if the healer couldn’t heal the summoned bear in time resulting in the bear’s death, there is another summoner to take the miss and continue summoning. From this point they have less defense skill cycle, also in the great possibility of output …… But then the problem arises, the early panic makes their output slower compared to before.

It’s currently unknown if this boss, Son of Spring Realm, will have a limited blood binge, if so, it’s an absolute hard hit for them. The blood level dropped to 60%!

Skills were becoming more frequent, and the number of times everyone was walking increased.

The pressure on the two healers became too much, and FireworksAndLanterns’ bear was overwhelmed and collapsed. Su Mo summoned the bear to top it off, Spring Breeze’s interval was unchanged, and Seeding’s interval was getting shorter. Uncharted territory was next.

“Attention, the boss is about to be 50% blood.” Su Mo fixed his voice, “Bitter Gourd, pay attention to the use time of Giant Mountain Shield, Yellow Peach prioritize to protect the main resistance, Firework, be always ready to take over the vice T position.”

“We have ten seconds if there are three skills together at the same time.” Su Mo said, “Bitter Gourd, come next to the bear, others prioritize dodging Spring Breeze, Watermelon hold down the Naming, others go all out on the small monsters, pay attention to the damage concentration, don’t waste the skills.”

Everyone responded.

51%, 50.95% ……50%!

The blood level arrived, at this time the boss raised his hand and used an unprecedented hand gesture, immediately after that the fierce winds rose in all directions, in addition to the spring breeze, there were also powerful tornadoes spreading out from the surroundings.

[Spring Realm Specific Mechanism Enabled: Born to Live, Week to Week]

Su Mo had the bear lower its body at the first opportunity, and Yu Zhen’s defense array, magical swordsman’s great sword array, crossed. Amidst the waves of gusts of wind, the bear struggled to press its body down and withstood the tornado + spring breeze. At this point, the minions doubled up and appeared, double strangling the naming.

The cleric ScarletFruit jacked up everyone’s blood at the first opportunity, and the two assassins dropped to about 30%.

“7 seconds!” Su Mo immediately said, “Kill the closest minions.”

Yu Zhen decisively used a monster gathering array, together with magical swordsman’s group attack to control down the small monsters, physical swordsman, assassin followed and rushed up, fully clearing out the nearest eight small monsters.

“Not all of them.” Yu Zhen, “There are still 2 more out there.”

Su Mo immediately said, “FireworksAndLanterns, Solitary Wolf and White Tiger.”

FireworksAndLanterns acted quickly, “Okay!”

Before Spring Breeze, two Summoners and four Summoned Beasts rushed up together, and the two of them worked together to kill the last three monsters. When the spring wind fell, the summoners were blown away, and all of them cooperated well and survived without any danger.

Spring Breeze came again, and the skill cycle returned to normal.

Su Mo, “It’s probably a percentage drop, everyone else return to your positions first and output the boss.”

However, the danger wasn’t over yet, not long after everyone returned and just fought, only to see the boss’s tender voice shouting out the words weekly cycle, only to see Spring Breeze, Tornado, Seeding, and Strangulation fall once again!

Everyone: ????

The tornado blew away three people, the strangulation killed ZenSlasher that fell outside in direct seconds, the damage from the seeding took over, and the two sets of cycles caught the crowd off guard. In an instant’s effort they were down 2, Su Mo murmured, “Everyone else clear the minions, ScarletFruit milk the main T, switch, Yellow Peach save the nearest one.”

FireworksAndLanterns released the bear, “Yellow Peach go, I’ll block the wind for you.”

Yellow Peach moves right in, he manages to save ZenSlasher and prepares to pull back, Spring Breeze falls again.

The bear blocked the damage for him, and just then, the childish voice of the Son of Spring Realm rang out again, “Weeks and weeks!”

“Crap again!?” ClearWind couldn’t help but explode, “This skill is toxic!”

Su Mo decisively said at this time, “No small monsters, go all out for the boss!”

The players who were still alive froze, but still obeyed the command to go all out for the boss!

However, three rounds of Tornado + Spring Breeze followed one after another, causing more and more people to be blown away.

Healer didn’t keep up with Cleric’s CD, and the blood level of the whole group was very dangerous again. After attacking the boss at full power for a while, the Son of Spring Realm stopped and didn’t release cycles again.

ClearWind said, “It seems to have stopped?”

Su Mo added, “Gathering monsters and clearing small monsters.”

Yu Zhen asked, “How long did it take the second time?”

“About 20 seconds the first time, 10 seconds the second time.” Su Mo replied, he hesitated a little, “We just made a mistake in the first wave, it should have counter-utilized our routine of clearing the small monsters in advance.”

Yu Zhen, “Still have to try and see 40% blood.”

FireworksAndLanterns , “What?”

ScarletFruit, “Didn’t get it, milk is right.”

YellowPeach , “The cd is still a while away.”

With a group of 10 people, 4 dead on the field, Yellow Peach’s cd once every 3 minutes, and ScarletFruit once every 10 minutes, their output started to break.

When they finished clearing the small monsters and the others hit the boss’s blood level to 45%, they only saw a new status come out at the boss’s status bar – ‘Born to Last’

[Endless Cycle of Life (Spring Realm Special Mechanism)：All monsters in the Spring Realm will gain the status of recovering 1% of their blood every 40 seconds, this status cannot be dispelled]

Apple road, “FUCK, it also comes with blood restoration.”

Watermelon, “That’s too hard.”

ClearWind, “No wonder some people on the forums say this boss is meat, it returns 1% for 40 seconds!”

Su Mo weed on, “Slow down the output, Yellow Peach, switch with ScarletFruit and prepare to pull.”

The boss’s blood level went back to 46%, and the raw status disappeared.

That is to say that this state would only appear at 45% …… At this time, Yellow Peach switched with ScarletFruit and pulled up the two people once again.

Su Mo once again said, “Everyone else go all out, look for 40% blood.”

The few people who were still alive began to output at full power, but with 2 people dropped, the full case output was about 1% blood loss in about 25 seconds, only to see the boss’s blood level getting lower and lower, and when it reached 40%, the rawness disappeared, and everyone once again heard the whisper- ”Weeks and weeks!”

Everyone, “……!!!” Week you!

Su Mo ordered, “Ignore the small monsters, go all out on the boss!”

The others acted immediately. This time, the boss’s week was only recited twice, they dropped three people, the others were run back and forth by the whole mess of skill, especially the healing, always having to find the bodies of their teammates in the gusty winds, and stood on the prairie and looked around in disbelief.

Even with the special emblem, it was hard enough to find. Watermelon had been lying on the ground for a long time, and finding the prairie ground very cold, he volunteered, “Why don’t you come again?”

The others looked expectantly at the commanding momo.

Yu Zhen, “Shall we continue?”

Su Mo’s heart was clear and already had a guess, “Of course, continue.”

Everyone, “!!!”

Next everyone experienced a wind in their sails, bewilderedly listening to the command guidance, hitting 30%, healer Yellow Peach was swarmed to death by the small monsters, the whole group relied on ScarletFruit’s lucky healing, seeing the sometimes high and sometimes low blood level, listening to the command with fear.

When the fight reached 25%, there were still 6 people left in the group, however, the whole group was bloodied, and at any time, the whole group could be on the floor.

Those who still survived finally heard the commander let loose, “The remaining output shouldn’t be able to pass, Bitter Gourd pull off the bar, let’s start over.”

The Fruit Gang’s people breathed a sigh of relief, but when they heard that it was Bitter Melon who took off the monsters, they instantly raised their spirits again.

Watermelon was just about to open his mouth, “Wait ……”

Bitter Melon’s middle voice rang out, “Fine, I’ll pull off then.”

Fruit Gang, “……!”

Milk Mixed with Bitter Melon, a person who became CloudTraveller’s sub-T because he was meaty and tough enough, there was no boss in the whole world that he couldn’t carry. However, there was one thing that was also well known by most of the players, due to the fact that his defense and blood were so high that he was re-determined by the System, his movement speed was defined, and he was currently the slowest moving player in Celestial Horizon, bar none.

Bitter Gourd, who had held out until now, sniffed and pulled up his shield that he had stuck in front of the boss, topped off with 80% blood, and began to run a 120 meter race at a speed that was almost like walking.

The others, “?”

Su Mo was silent, “…… Bitter Melon? You can walk faster.”

FireworksAndLanterns voice is light, “Go guild master! Still 80 meters to go!”

Bitter Melon, the oldest brother, riveted himself forward carrying his knife, “No problem, it’ll be off in no time.”
