What the Fuck

The gates slowly opened, and the group stepped into the arena. Looking around, they saw a circular grandstand surrounded by various elemental creatures and Alliance NPCs. In the center of the grandstand was a prominent high-class platform where the Elemental Lords Azathoth and the Alliance's Baron Bolvar stood.

Overall, the Elemental Proving Ground feels quite relaxing, unlike the perilous depths of Sgelari's Lair and Naga Cavern. Because it's a trial instance with heroes from your faction watching, the Elemental Proving Ground feels more like a contest than a deathmatch.

A siren priest walked up to the high platform.

Luluqi (Elder Murloc): "Welcome to the Elemental Proving Ground, friends from the Alliance, friends from the Water Elemental Plane, and of course, a few adventurers. This is the Trials established by Lord Azathoth, the Elemental Lords, to select brave adventurers to fight against the Horde. The victors will receive rewards bestowed by Lord Azathoth and the title of Elemental Warrior. As for the losers, well, at least they proved their courage."

"So, who will face the adventurers' challenge today? Who will represent Lord Azathoth to test their strength? Let's wait and see."

As the gate on the other side of the arena slowly opened, a deep blue sea elemental emerged from it.

Poseidon (Elder of the Sea Element), Intermediate BOSS, Level 47, 320,000 HP.

(Only 200,000+ HP, this BOSS doesn't look too bad.) Angmar thought to himself, he's lucky. (But its name is Poseidon, could it be a player?)

"Hey bro, can you go easy on me?" Angmar asked, half-jokingly.

Poseidon completely ignored Angmar. He had already signed a contract with Xiao Yu and would be affiliated with the Immortals Studio to receive subsidies. Naturally, he had to follow orders.

Poseidon (Elder of the Sea Element): "Adventurers, I will be your first opponent. Now, unleash all your power and attack!"

Angmar hadn't really expected the enemy to be waterproof. After hearing Poseidon's words, he nodded to Boromir, "Let's go, the old tactics."

The tank holds the line, the healers keep up, and the DPS unleash their attacks. This is basically the routine for any new boss. So, with Boromir's Charge, the battle began.

Although the first boss was a casualty, Poseidon still fought with all his might. Tidal Storm, Water Dragon Wave, and Summon Sea Elemental were all executed flawlessly, putting considerable pressure on the members of the Middle-earth Supreme. However, his strength was too weak, especially with four fire mages on the opposing side. Fire spells deal 200% damage to Water Elemental, and the damage was incredibly fast. In less than ten minutes, his health dropped below 50%, and Poseidon immediately stopped fighting.

Poseidon (Elder of the Sea Element): "Very well, adventurers, you have proven your strength! I concede."

After saying that, he left the arena.

"Wow, it's actually pretty simple."

"But why aren't any equipment dropping?"

"Idiot, you can only get the equipment after defeating all three bosses in this dungeon."

Just as everyone was arguing, the merman announcer reappeared.

Luluqi (Elder Merman): "Poseidon has been defeated, but even greater challenges await you. Next, you will face the corrupted Water Elemental elder, the Big Water Cunt. He was summoned to Undercity by a group of alchemists to undergo various inhumane biological experiments, and thus his body is filled with evil toxins. Can you adventurers defeat this powerful mutated elemental? Let's wait and see."

With a thud, a large green blob fell from the stands and moved towards them.

"Holy crap, is this a giant jelly?" Angmar stared speechlessly at the green Water Elemental in front of him.

"Why is this Water Elemental green?"

"Haha, what a funny guy."

"Everyone be careful, this guy doesn't look easy to fight."

Indeed, this boss is significantly stronger than the previous ones.

The Big Water Cunt Elder (a corrupted Water Elemental elder) is a high-level boss, level 49, with 670,000 HP, which is twice as much as the previous boss.

Big Water Cunt (the corrupted Water Elemental elder): "Hahaha, it's finally my turn to appear! The primordial power within me is beginning to Boiling!"

(This is clearly another player-controlled boss; hopefully it won't be too difficult.) Angmar thought, nodding to Boromir, "Let's go."

Boromir charged forward, unleashing a Charge: Heroic Strike (-576), Shield Slam (-124), and Thunder Clap (-213). This successfully drew the boss's attention, allowing Boromir to pull the boss away from the others, making it easier for them to deal damage.

The four fire mages simultaneously began crafting fireballs and then threw them out at the same time.

-2123,.

-1985.

-2345.

-3981 (Critical Hit).

Four Pyroblast were unleashed simultaneously, instantly reducing the BOSS's health by over 10,000. Fire mages are really fast at dealing with Water Elemental.

"Keep casting fireballs, don't stop! Priest, heal the tank!" Angmar commanded as he charged forward.

"Damn it, stop just healing me, hurry up and cure me!" Boromir was forced to use two Frostbolt by the Big Water Cunt, which actually caused him to be poisoned, and his health plummeted. The Druid quickly used a Cure Poison to remove the poison effect.

A group of people surrounded the green Water Elemental and hacked at it relentlessly, but the main damage dealers were the four fire mages.

The first phase was relatively easy. This Big Water Cunt's attack had a poison effect, but with the Druid constantly using Cure Poison, it wasn't a big problem. However, when its health dropped to 70%, things started to go wrong.

The Big Water Cunt Water Elemental elder. "Well done, adventurers, but now I'm getting serious."

His green body trembled violently, and suddenly, as if it had been pierced with many holes, green water began to spray out from his body. The green water turned into poisonous mist as soon as it hit the ground, spreading in all directions. Moreover, the Big Water Cunt began to move around, constantly spreading the poisonous mist further.

Everyone in the surrounding area was infected.

"Druid, hurry up and use the wind! Quickly detoxify, quickly heal!" Angmar was so anxious he was jumping up and down. He pulled out a bottle of antidote potion and gulped it down. But others didn't get such good treatment. High-grade antidote potions cost 20 points a bottle at the auction house. Most people couldn't afford them and could only rely on the Druid to detoxify. The Druid was so busy he was in a frenzy.

The poisonous mist continued to billow out, and the thief was the first to succumb, dying with a scream.

Angmar sensed trouble and shouted, "Melee fighters, retreat! Switch to ranged weapons!"

Now the damage output relies entirely on the four fire mages. Fortunately, ranged classes are not afraid of the poison mist, so the damage is still sufficient. However, the Druid are running out of mana for both detoxification and wind spells.

"Xiao De, drink your medicine quickly. Don't worry about wasting it; I'll reimburse you later!"

With the leader's words, the Druid immediately downed two large mana potions and continued to detoxify the tank, using Wind Spell to Dispel the poison mist.

The four fire mages also began to move around and attack continuously. It must be said that the core players of the Middle-earth Supreme Guild are quite strong. In the arena filled with poisonous fog, they kept moving around and casting spells, managing to reduce Big Water Cunt's health to below 50%.

Big Water Cunt (the corrupted Water Elemental elder): "Haha, well done, adventurers. Although your strength is far from enough to defeat me, you have done a great job in forcing someone as great as me to use half of my power."

"Phew, finally beat it!" Angmar slumped down, feeling utterly exhausted. Unlike the easy victory over Poseidon, this Big Water Cunt had put a lot of pressure on Angmar. (This boss was really disgusting, especially that poison mist; the continuous damage was terrifyingly high. Luckily, the team was strong enough and had some skillful movement, so we finally beat it. But who knows what kind of boss will be next?)

"Hurry up and recover, the next boss is about to appear." Angmar said, but his gaze was fixed on the stands.

At that moment, the merman announcer reappeared.

Luluqi (Elder Merman): "What an amazing battle! Even the Big Water Cunt was defeated. It seems these adventurers are indeed quite strong. However, they still have a final test to face, and this time, they will be facing the Water Elemental Lord, Lord Azathoth."

"What!?"

"What the hell!?"

"My God!"

The people of the Middle-earth Supreme were completely stunned. Angmar wondered if he had misheard, but looking at the expressions of the others, it seemed unlikely that everyone had misheard at the same time.

The next moment, the Water Elemental Lord Azathoth walked down from the stands.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord), a 3-skull level BOSS, level 53, with 1.23 million HP. -- The BOSS's HP will be adjusted after entering the dungeon. Since it is only a 10-player dungeon, the HP will only be 1.23 million after the adjustment, but compared to the previous two BOSSes, it is still a tanky existence.

What was even more terrifying was the powerful aura. When the Water Elemental, ten meters tall, radiating scorching steam, and with faint crackling lightning within its body, appeared before them, Angmar felt only despair.

His original plan was to gather hundreds or thousands of adventurers and overwhelm the BOSS with sheer numbers, but now he's challenging it with only ten people, which is a completely different story.

Angmar swallowed hard, his mind suddenly drifting away. (Could defeating it here yield an artifact? Wait, why isn't it carrying one?)

A voice jolted him from his daze.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Mortals, you have successfully piqued my interest, so now, I shall be your opponent."
