Chapter 900
"Use the badge! This clears the effect for seven seconds!" Lu Li shouted as he activated his and swiftly escaped from the Disease Cloud along with the others .

March Rain did not care about her own HP and had furiously healed Azure Sea Breeze in that time, saving him from the jaws of death .
Hachi Chan was not the type of player to panic under in a frantic situation either . She had given March Rain a life-steal buff, then proceeded to heal the others . The first dangerous situation had passed with no casualties .
Disease Cloud only lasted for 10 seconds, so it was not long before it had dissipated .
This time, Lu Li did not arrange them in their positions; they had to figure it out for themselves . It was a simple formation, and they correctly separated themselves five metres apart so that Stomp would not be able to hit all of them at the same time .
After taking critical damage from Azure Sea Breeze, the Boss suddenly became enraged .
"Try this on for size!"
Azure Sea Breeze was taken aback, since he did not realise what was happening . After all, they had not even eliminated one quarter of Ramstein's HP . If the Boss became enraged before his HP even reached 75%, then there was really no need to continue .
Flurry: Ramstein the Gorger's next three consecutive attacks are 30% faster after receiving critical damage .

This was only an increase in Attack Speed, not an increase in Attack .
"Hurry up and increase your DPS! Haven't you all realised that the Boss is becoming stronger and stronger?" Lu Li shouted . He did not look too optimistic .
In this situation, the Xin Xin Mercenary Group would have found themselves in hot water if they had not realised that the Boss was growing stronger as the battle ensued . Most of them thought that there was a limit to Ramstein's strength and that his ultimate skills were not powerful enough to eliminate them, so they had become complacent .
Everyone in the team trusted Lu Li with their lives . They did not question any of his decisions, so they instantly increased their DPS after his instructions .
The second Disease Cloud was still not that devastating yet . However, the first casualty resulted when Azure Sea Breeze was stunned by Ramstein and lost aggro . Shortly after, the Boss rushed towards Wandering, who despite activating a damage shield, was still unable to hold on . Games did have an aspect of luck to them, and Wandering was just unfortunate that he had been struck by consecutive Critical Hits .
Ramstein the Gorger's Flurry skill was not that strong, but it should not have Critically struck so many times .
After consecutive Critical attacks, there was an increase of 60% in Attack Speed . Originally, there would have been two strikes each time, but now there were three . Wandering never had any hope of being able to tank this in the first place .
Lu Li was ranked third on the list of aggro, so the Boss had instantly rushed towards him after killing Wandering . He could only run using his many skills, and tried to escape the Boss' grasp until Azure Sea Breeze had recovered .

In Dawn, it was nigh impossible for one person to take on a Boss .
If there were no members to help, he would not be able to even clear out 10% of the Boss' HP . However, he was able to stay alive for a longer time than the others . This was intentionally allowed by the game designers, and enabled Thieves to be able to last longer in co-op battles .
Hachi Chan had successfully revived Wandering and everyone else continued the fight .
During this time, Ramstein the Gorger's strength was already terrifying . However, it was fortunate that he did not have much HP remaining .
Lu Li did not know whether it was possible to burst the Boss down in such a short time . He had devised a few strategies to try out, but they required a bit of luck . Firstly, the Boss could not perform any consecutive critical strikes . Secondly, the Disease Cloud could not envelop two healers at the same time . Last of all, the backup Tank needed to hold the Boss' attacks for a few seconds after the Main Tank was stunned .
However, Lady Luck did not favour Lu Li just because he had been reborn . No one expected Wandering to go down a second time . As a result of this, Lu Li nearly died as well .
His ways of escaping were slowly running out, along with his HP .
If he had died, a disaster would have ensued . Hachi Chan had already used her Revive and Lu Li would not be able to Revive Wandering if he died . Losing both main members in the party this early in the Boss fight would make things problematic .

Lu Li had to praise his own foresight and judgement in this dire situation .
He recognised that Azure Sea Breeze would likely go down as the greatest Main Tank in Dawn . Of course, without Azure Sea Breeze's existence, Lu Li would not have been where he was today .
Azure Sea Breeze had used his antidote that was equipped on his belt to eliminate the status ailment, just as Wandering was beginning to crumble under Ramstein's attacks . However, the side effects of the antidote decreased his maximum HP by 30% for two minutes . This was a huge penalty for the Main Tank, but it was more favourable than a complete wipe out .
Lu Li barely escaped from the jaws of death and rushed over to revive Wandering .
He should not have let Hachi Chan use Revive first, as he was in much more danger than her .
If Hachi Chan still had her skill available, she would have been able to easily revive Wandering and continue the Boss fight . After all, losing Lu Li would only mean that they lost DPS .
As such, this fight depended greatly on Wandering . Although Lu Li had not given verbal praise to Wandering, he had begun to praise himself .
"Hachi Chan look at your big brother and how much he's done! Come on! Don't you want to bring me on some quests?"
"Remnant Dream, help me loot a good item later, since I've done so much for the fight!"
"Lu Li…"
Who could shut these kinds of people up? No one, except for the Boss . Ramstein began rampaging around the battlefield when he merely had hundreds of HP left . He landed three Critical Hits consecutively, instantly killing some members on the squad .
Everyone was dumbfounded . Did Ramstein also hate people who talked too much?
Lu Li wanted to shake Ramstein's hands, just for managing to silence Wandering . However, the fight was nearing an end and a complete wipe at this stage would be completely devastating .
Wandering took over the main aggro, fully understanding that he was going to be alone in tanking the rest .
It was after this that everyone had realised the might of Wandering . Usually, they did not think much of him, so they were speechless at his strength and contribution to the team . Lu Li then decided that he was going to use him much more often in Boss fights to showcase his ability and develop his skills . "Boss…Boss…my experience . . . " Azure Sea Breeze was extremely disheartend, and laid on the ground as if he was crying .
These level 50 Bosses, if defeated, rewarded a tremendous amount of EXP . As Azure Sea Breeze had already died, he would not be receiving any of it .
It was unfortunate that he had died extremely late into the fight . Furthermore, if there were no items of use to him after completing the fight, this Boss would have been a complete waste of time .
