Chapter 1017: 1017
This was a loophole in the System .

Although there was no way to take a break between the battles, that single monster was almost no danger, so everyone could slowly regenerate .
If it was a normal Boss, there would be no need to do something so troublesome . It was no big deal – just a little time lost and some costs in equipment repairs . However, Doctor Theolen Krastinov was not the same . As a Hidden Boss, he vanished as soon as the group got wiped .
Who knew when the next time that they saw him would be?
If they didn't regenerate before facing the Boss, they would have little hope of defeating Doctor Theolen Krastinov .
"Deathwalker Bracer – it's a Dark Gold Bracer that made up of Cloth Armor . Looks suitable for a Mage . " Remnant Dream didn't delay this time and quickly picked up the equipment . After Lonesome Flower declined the item, it was directly given to Fat Monkey . Of course, Lu Li didn't forget to deduct some of his guild points .
A Gold Plate Armor item with good Attributes was given to Her Tears . The rest of the items were to be left in the guild warehouse . These included some Rare Materials, a Paladin Skill Book and a Strengthening Stone .
Azure Sea Breeze was also replaced by Wandering after a while . When they had finished regenerating and their damage reduction skills had refreshed, Lu Li announced for them to kill the last Flesh Horror .
Kekeke… .
A giggle that made their skin crawl echoed throughout the room as a man with a black hood appeared . It was the Hidden Boss – Doctor Theolen Krastinov .

"I will be taking this class," he said as he filled the room with a dark cloud .
Lu Li and the others received a System Prompt that they were within a Plague Barrier and would lose 10HP per second in addition to receiving an Armor debuff .
"Attack! Breezy, take aggro . Wandering, back him up . Everyone else, don't take aggro from the Main Tank . "
Before he even finished, everyone already knew what to do . Even so, Lu Li specifically emphasized it this time because maintaining aggro was a key strategy for this Boss .
Doctor Theolen Krastinov had a Mage Skill that would occasionally summon a wave of Flesh Horrors .
This kind of attack intensity wouldn't cause fatal damage to a team like Lu Li's . Azure Sea Breeze didn't even have many opportunities to cast his damage reduction skills . However, when Doctor Theolen Krasitnov summoned a Shadow Whirlwind to blow Azure Sea Breeze upwards, everyone understood the threat of this Boss .
The whirlwind lasted 45 seconds, during which no Crowd Control skills could be used by the player .
Fortunately, the second tank was Wandering and he was prepared . If anyone else with high damage output began tanking the attacks, they would definitely be killed by Krastinov .
"Wandering, keep going; Breezy will back you up as soon as he can . Flower do you want to die? Stop attacking," Lu Li quickly warned Lonesome Flower .

Lonesome Flower was currently the player with the highest damage output in this Instance Dungeon .
In their current state, it was difficult for a Thief to surpass a Mage in damage output . Not all of Lu Li's equipment was geared towards completing Instance Dungeons as well, so there was no way for him to compete with Lonesome Flower for first place .
Lonesome Flower would often tunnel-vision on dealing damage and take aggro from the Main Tank .
However, whenever the aggro was transferred onto him, he would freeze himself and immediately cancel it out . He was particularly fond of this playstyle, but Lu Li knew that Doctor Theolen Krastinov wouldn't let him do that .
The whirlwind skill wasn't cast at regular intervals, but when the aggro was particularly high .
As such, the most dangerous situation would be if both Main Tanks were blown up, because the Boss would turn to Lonesome Flower . However, if he froze himself to avoid the aggro, the Boss would go looking for March Rain .
Although he wasn't a defensive profession, Wandering still had some Taunt skills . One of them seemed to be very powerful as the Boss immediately turned to attack him .
In general, Doctor Theolen Krastinov was fairly easy to fight . They just needed to control the aggro and keep their Main Tanks in the front . As long as there were no incidents and they could overcome the whirlwinds, they would be fine .

The only other despicable thing was his ability to regenerate HP . When the bodies of the Flesh Horrors returned to him, he would devour them to recover health .
This meant that the battle took a little longer than it should have . Within 10 minutes, Lu Li and the others had dealt with Doctor Theolen Krastinov, but Glory Capital had now finished with Rattlegore and were moving ahead .
Just like that, Glory Capital had overtaken Ruling Sword .
"Go loot the Boss . "
Lu Li wasn't that anxious, and didn't even mention that they had fought a Hidden Boss . Even if he had to fight another Hidden Boss, he was confident that they wouldn't lose .
"An Ancient Bone Bow…wow it's really pretty!" Remnant Dream exclaimed . She had found an equip that she could use and was ecstatic .
"It's too bad that you're not good at using bows," Lu Li said, bursting her bubble .
"Says who? I've practiced and I can do it now . "
Remnant Dream was holding the crystal-white longbow in her hands . She had a keen eye for equipment, so who knew how powerful it really was?
Even if she was not particularly skilled with a longbow, there was no way that she didn't understand what +25% Critical Hit and +25% Attack Speed meant .
With the bonus Critical Hit and Attack Speed, even a newbie could use this bow . She wasn't lying either – ever since the others had joked about her archery abilities, she had been practicing whenever she could . Her ability had now surpassed most other average hunters .
"You can take it if you want it . This item is quite exquisite so it'll cost you more points," Lu Li said .
"Hmph, next time I won't get anything for you . " Remnant Dream made a face at Lu Li and put away the Ancient Bone Bow .
Lu Li was very curious as to what she would do if she knew that the bow was actually made out of bones .
Deathbone Chestplate, Necropile Leggings and Necropile Cuffs were the three Gold items that were subsequently looted . They were all part of sets – one for Warriors and two Cloth pieces for Magic Professions, which was quite lucky .
These sets were not part of the regular T series, but they didn't necessarily have Attributes that were much worse . It was also much easier to acquire all the pieces .
Because they were part of the same set, Lu Li simply bundled the two pieces together for the Magic Professions to bid for together .
They were eventually taken away by Kitty Likes Meat .
Lonesome Flower and Sesame Rice Ball both wanted a T series set, and Jaweika didn't have many points . Fat Monkey didn't really want to fight a girl for the equipment, so she actually managed to take the items at a bargain .
