Second World

Jeanny and the others came out to the huge cavern. They looked at the place. It was a complex terrain.

"Ranged players spread out and take the high grounds. Sentinels and paladins guard this entrance, do not let any monster pass through!" Jeanny issued the command. "Everyone else, run interference. Use the rocks for covers when in danger. Summoners summon every available summons, use them for sacrifice if needed! Elementalists, cast fire resist on everyone!"

After receiving the fire resistance boost, everyone took their positions following Jeanny's command.

They heard several roars. The opponents were close already. Suddenly, one ear-splitting roar was heard. It not only shook the cavern, but it shook them to their cores. Some fell on their butts, but no one laughed at those who did. They were too concerned about the source of the roar to worry about anything else.

While they looked on with trepidation, two large dragonets burst through one of the caves around this cavern. The two dragonets were rushing in with rage. They came out of the hole at the same time, which was smaller when the two of them were advancing together. The rocks around the cave mouth ended up getting torn apart by their forceful entry. Chunks of rocks flew everywhere.

They caught sight of the intruders around them. They knew then that these small creatures were the reason the young dragonet under their care was in pain.

"Le… Level 55 rare elite…," One of the players with high-level Inspect skill uttered. The others who had sufficient Inspect level immediately did a scan.

Dragonet (Rare Elite monster, Draconic), level 55

HP: 590,000

*

The dragonet itself was slightly smaller than the flame drake they faced a day ago. But they didn't doubt these draconic monsters in front of them were more dangerous foes. Not just because of their higher levels, but they could sense it as well. The aura these two exuded gave off more pressure than those flame drakes.

As they worried about the two, another dragonet appeared. One that was somewhat larger than the two.

"Th… Three dragonets…," Someone uttered.

But those with sufficient mana sense knew this new one was different. They felt a shiver in their souls. The pressure this one gave off is suffocating. When the players inspected this new beast, all of them were lost for words.

Dragonet (Mythical monster, Draconic), level 55

HP: 1,050,000

*

While they were stunned by the revelation, a shadow zoomed past them and headed straight towards the mythical dragonet. The shadow was as if a black sword that cut through everything.

The mythical dragonet huffed. A fiery rune shield appeared in front of it as the black sword slammed onto it. Both the rune shield and the black sword shattered as an energy shockwave radiated out. A figure landed on the ground not far from the impact. It was the vampire, Arlcard, holding his crimson rapier.<br/><script>ChapterMid();</script>

Seeing the display, Jeanny immediately shouted out encouragement. "Do not get discouraged! All we have to do is buy time until the taming is completed. All of us wear Amulet of Rebirth, we will only lose one level. Give all your best! For the glory of Everlasting Heavenly Legends…!!"

The Man's roughnecks immediately shouted their battle cries following Jeanny's rally. The others gained courage from their voices. They also yelled at the top of their lungs, tried to chase away the fear in their hearts.

The three dragonets, hearing the cries, considered these intruders as issuing a challenge. The three replied with deafening roars of their own before their throats started to shine.

Those with good enough mana sense could immediately identify that a powerful attack was incoming. Based on Jack's previous information to them, they knew what attack it was.

"Lava breath! Everyone takes cover!!" Jeanny shouted.

Three thick lava beams blasted out from the dragonets' mouths. Each fired in different directions.

Those that had defensive skills and spells activated them. Archmage cast Magic Wall, Sentinel used Shield Stance and Protection Field, Paladins used Heaven's Shield. While those without defensive skill, immediately ran behind a large enough rock for cover.

When the lava beam hit Archmage's Magic Wall, it only lasted one second before it completely melted and the beam engulfed the archmage behind it. Only a few archmages who had cast their magic walls at the same place, making them layered, managed to survive.

Even Paladins' Heaven's Shields were melted away. Sentinel lost a huge chunk of HP despite blocking the beam.

As for the mythical dragonet's lava breath, it simply obliterated everything that it touched.

The lava breath finally stopped. The three dragonets looked on with satisfaction at the devastations they had caused.

When the mythical dragonet wanted to move on to go towards the young dragonet's rescue, a shadow zipped past him. It felt a sting on its neck. He looked down and saw that vampire again, the one that had dared to challenge it.

It stomped down but the vampire had turned into a shadow and moved to a different position. It turned to stomp and bite, but the vampire was fast. He kept on turning into shadows and moved away before the attacks hit.

Frustrated, it started to cast a spell, but a stinging cold beam suddenly hit its head. It felt like the air around its head solidified into ice.

The players who had survived the three dragonet's lava beam were stunned as they watched a rare elite native and a rare elite monster facing the mythical dragonet. The rare elite monster was Jack's Ice Demon Fiend, who had used its icy beam that shot out from the large mouth on its belly.

When the icy beam was over, they saw the mythical dragonet's head was covered with ice. Yet, the damage it suffered from that blast was negligent. It shook its head and the ice shattered. It looked at the Ice Demon Fiend with rage.

"Everyone, attack! Attack!" Jeanny shouted. "Keep their attention to us. Do not let them leave this cavern!"

Everyone returned to action after Jeanny's reminder. Spells, arrows, and bullets started flying. Melee players went over courageously against the two rare elite dragonets. They left the mythical one for Arlcard and the Ice Demon Fiend.

Yet, each of their attacks scored less than 300 damage, even after using their most powerful skills and spells! The defense of these lava dragonets was way higher compared to the flame drakes.

While each of these dragonets' strikes could take out any ranger or magician-based classes in a single swipe. Even fighter-based classes had a large chunk of their HPs depleted in a single attack. Healer-based classes were hard at work keeping those melee players alive.

Domon tried attracting the attention of one of the rare elite dragonets, but even he found it hard just to survive. He felt extreme danger from the dragonet's every move. All he could do are evasion maneuvers without the chance to land any attack.

Technocrafts who had techno-golems, sent their golems to assist Arlcard and Ice Demon Fiend. They would surely lose those golems, but those golems were not like pets. Technocrafts wouldn't lose their techno-golems permanently if the golems were destroyed. They, however, needed to have them repaired in specialized shops before they could summon these golems to fight again. Jeanny had promised that the guild would pay for the reparation cost.

For archer-based classes' pets, they were helping their masters against the two rare elites. They might lose these pets, but Jeanny had also promised that guild force would help them in taming another one if they lost these pets.

Priests who had reached level 45, cast Words of Prayer to the front line. This spell healed all allies in an area, gave them continuous HP recovery effects, and increased attributes, damage, and defense for one minute.

Druids cast Wall of Vines, their level 35 spell, to hinder the dragonets' movements. But it was as if these vines were non-existent, the vines were broken the moment they entangled the dragonets.

Druids also cast Healing Spirit, their level 30 spell, and Healing Wind, their level 40 spells to help the melees in the front line. The healing spirit summoned a wisp that followed a target ally and apply continuous healing, while the healing wind also apply continuous healing upon an area.

Some druids, who had passed their trials on the first try, cast their exclusive spells, Summon Treants. At the first level, it called out one tall living tree to battle. Those that had upgraded the spell to level ten summoned two treants.

Simply said, everyone was going all out.

But it was still not enough. The pain roar of the young dragonet echoed throughout the cavern, causing the dragonets to fight with more frenzy. One of the rare elite dragonets made an ear-splitting roar. It was not a normal roar but a skill that rattled everyone who heard the roar. The other rare elite used the chance to charge and manage to break through towards the cave where the players came from.

Trinity and the other elementalists cast their elemental walls upon the mouth of the cave. Elementalists received different elemental spells when they leveled up. Fireball at level 30, Ice Field at level 35, Chain Lightning at level 40. Reaching level 45, they received an Elemental Wall spell, in which they chose which elements they preferred for the spell. But after deciding, that element would be permanent. So a level 45 Elementalists would either have Fire, ice, or lightning walls.

Yet, these walls couldn't hinder the dragonet much. It barged through and obliterated all the elemental walls in front of it.

A group of Warlocks cast Hell Whip from the dragonet's back. The whips grabbed at different parts of the dragonet's body, holding it down. Those that had reached level 45 also activated Demonic Possession, Warlock's level 45 spell, which increased all attributes and boosted all attacks by an extra 30% and also dealt chaos damage.

Yet, the extra strength boost was still not enough to hold down the dragonet. It yanked and all the warlocks were thrown aside.

Everyone watched helplessly as this dragonet rushed into the cave.
