Dasher used Protection Field, Shield Stance, and Impenetrable Wall, but he didn't think all those were enough to stop the raging bull heading toward them.
"Therras, supersonic mode!" Jack exclaimed.
Therras armor activated its special ability, turning Therras into a speeding jet. It also executed Tyrannical Charge. Its charge enhanced by the supersonic mode allowed it to catch up to the speeding bull before the bull ran over Dasher and Flowerrain.
Therras slammed heavily into the bull from the side. It didn't completely stop the bull but it caused the bull's charging trajectory to veer to the side, saving Dasher and Flowerrain from getting trampled over.
Although Jack thought this would be the last boss they attempted, he was still planning to try the next one. But seeing the ferocity of the gold bull boss here, he decided to go all out.
He cast Time Domain, increasing everyone's speed and slowing the gold bull. He then cast Acceleration on Therras, Jet, the crimson-maned lion, the silver griffin, and himself. He also cast Mirage Beast and created another copy of Therras.
With an extreme boost of speed, the six surrounded the gold bull. Jack also summoned his ten wolves to run interference. He flew from above and struck the gold bull on its back. Even if the bull had mana sense, it was too occupied by the other opponents.
Jack activated Asura. The claws of his two hands and two feet clamped the bull's back while his four extra arms pounded the bull's neck repeatedly. The bull jumped frantically trying to make Jack fall. The scene was like something from a matador show.
The Acceleration spell only lasted a short time, but the five had managed to get into a good position locking the bull down. Therras also used Imperious Pressure. The gravity field further slowed the gold bull's movement.
It was so slow that everyone dared to lean more on the offensive. Even The Man and Warpath came to the bull's flanks and stole some attacks. The ranged players resumed their attacks but in spread-out positions this time.
The gold bull used some area attacks, but Jack and the three pets mostly tanked them through. Jet sensed when the bull was about to attack so he retreated and came back again after the AOE attack ended.
Bowler cast Mass Regenerate on everyone, it was the first skill he received from his Royal High Priest special class. This spell helped Jack and the pet tank through the bull's AOE skills.
Since he was already level 60, he also had access to the special class' second skill, Mass Full Heal. He was ready to cast it when needed.
Jet's Royal Beast Lord's second skill was Pet's Cover. It was similar to Sentinel's Cover skill but it was a passive skill. When he was faced with a life-threatening attack, one of his pets with the higher HP would automatically teleport to him and take that attack for him.
This skill was hardly needed. Jet's awareness and body control made him untouchable. The bull was also not specifically targeting him.
The Man's second skill was Rush Strike. It was a series of powerful strikes that struck three times in quick succession. Each strike delivered higher damage and reduced the defensive value of the target. It also had the chance to cause Bleed.
Jet's Crimson-maned lion, although still a rare elite, didn't shy away from a direct clash with the bull. Its four claws burst with flame and added fire damage to its every attack. It also had a flame shield that enhanced its defense. It and Therras were the two main tanks that took the bull's main attention. Its armor gave it good defense and survivability.
Jet's second pet, the silver griffin, didn't have armor yet. Jet wasn't willing to go through the Lost Forest again, nor was he wanted to dive into the pit inside the Lake of Peace to get the material required for his pet's armor. Peniel mentioned that there were other blacksmiths in this world that could produce pet armor but the guild had yet to get any info about them.
But even without armor, the griffin was still a formidable pet. It attacked with its powerful beak and claws and it could fly up to avoid the bull's AOE attack when needed. It could also generate wind darts to attack from range.
With Jack staying on the bull's back and harassing it, keeping it from fully focused, the others had an easier time. Everyone worked together and the gold bull's HP was steadily reduced. Jack also cast Beast Howl to replenish the pets' HP and made them stronger.
When the bull's HP dropped to 30%, its whole body burst with a golden flame. Everyone in the vicinity received high earth damage. The damage hit every second. Jet, Warpath, and The Man quickly retreated.
Suckit's techno golem and Therras' copy had been highly damaged throughout the fight, the golden flame finally destroyed it. Therras' copy only had half of the original's HP and attributes, it also didn't have armor, so it wasn't as durable as Therras. Jack's wolves had long died from the bull's previous AOE skills.
Even with Jack's high HP, he also couldn't stay for long within the golden flame. He flew up and resumed his attacks from a range. The silver griffin did the same. Only Therras and the crimson-maned lion remained to hold the gold bull down. Peniel cast Healing Field to help the two endure.
Jack saw that his supreme dragon form was ending soon. He prepared to land a final attack. Rune diagrams appeared around his body. It was his Infernal Cleansing Flame. Even though he was flying, as long as he was floating at the same spot, the rune technique was not canceled.
Therras and the crimson-maned lion continued to hold the bull. But without everyone harassing the bull, the bull could focus his attacks. It chose the weaker crimson-maned lion.
Jet didn't want his pet to die. So, when the crimson-maned lion's HP fell to one-third, he forcefully commanded his pet to retreat. The beast was unwilling to leave if Therras was still on the front line. It still saw Therras as a rival even when Therras had increased a grade.
Even alone, Therras could still hold its own. The two giant webbed hands on its back, which also served as its wings, swept around as if two giant claws. They joined its other limbs in the offensive.
Jack activated Overlimit and cast the teleportation spell after completing his rune technique. He reappeared on the bull's back. He smashed the prepared rune technique without pause.
The golden flame around the golden bull's body was soon replaced by a white flame.
The bull thrashed as the white flame devoured its body. Its forceful charge managed to knock Therras aside and it charged around randomly while in pain. The players were running frantically to keep their distance from the dying bull.
When Jack saw the bull run to an empty area, Jack unleashed his soul breath and summoned his runestone of luck.
The soul breath took out the little remaining HP the bull had, turning it into a large torrent of coins that floated upward and disappeared before touching the ceiling.
