The trio strutted around the arena for a moment, and then their referee jumped down to start the fight.
"This ring has chosen an Epic Grade, Totem Ranked random boss challenge. May the luck of the gods be with you." He declared.
Azov turned to Dana and smirked. "Oh, they are so screwed."
The Mythic Warrior sitting in the row behind them, one of the new arrivals, cleared his throat to get their attention.
"What makes you say that, Regent?" He asked.
"They don’t understand that the random boss isn’t just from Zilaz, or just from the Totem Ranked Dungeons that they have been in. It could be anything that was considered a viable Epic Grade opponent by the System." He offered.
That didn’t really concern the Warrior. Not until the opponent appeared, that was.
"Today, their opponent will be a minor member of the Titan Clan, an Epic Grade Totem Ranked Frost Giant Clan Chief."
"Oh!" Dana gasped as she saw the opponent.
"I see now. It’s not just dungeon bosses, but anything with an Epic Grade constitution. I have been limiting my summons far too much." Karl agreed as he recognized the Frost Giant from the battlefield.
That one had perished in the explosion when they blew up the array in the crater, but the face was immediately recognizable to Karl.
Only, it was much larger now. Far larger than a Frost Giant had any right to be.
"So that is what a Totem Ranked Frost Giant looks like. That’s honestly pretty terrifying." One of the spectators noted.
And it only got scarier. The moment that the referee retreated, the Frost Giant used [Blizzard] and [Ice Storm] at the same, then created a two-handed sword of ice and charged into combat.
The group was not prepared.
But in the other rings, things were going much more normally, with each of them fighting a relatively well-matched opponent. Only ’relatively’ because someone had gotten a Beholder Beast, and he was currently running for his life.
But they were at the same power level.
One of the arenas quickly managed to defeat their target, and another group confidently strolled into the arena.
"Oh, we’re getting a great show today." Someone cheered behind Karl.
However, when the referee smirked at them as he went to start the fight, Karl knew that would not be the case.
"Group five has requested the strongest non dungeon monster that has recently been seen in the Zilaz region." He declared.
"Oh, they’re fucked." Dana muttered.
Rae came out of her space with popcorn as a duplicate of her spider form appeared in the arena.
"I personally think that it will be quite entertaining." She countered.
"You know what that thing is?" One of the spectators asked.
"A blood destruction demonic spider. Notably, a clone of me. See, it’s got my same markings." Rae explained.
The Demon looked confused for a moment, then saw that there was a swirling red marking on the spider’s back that appeared on her human form’s neck.
It hadn’t summoned Golems, so it might only have her innate racial abilities from her various advancements.
