I have to admit that I never expected to level up so much. I mean, the goblin blenders were leveling me up so fast that my status points are almost at one thousand. Not that I am complaining but still I never expected to level so fast.

But my problem right now was the Goblin Shaman. Its level was kind of crazy high.

[Boss Goblin Shaman]

[Level: 125]

[Health: 1000000/1000000]

[Mana: 900000/900000]

These stats should be illegal, right? Right!? I mean, I only have 37250 health! And I am level 105. So this is just nuts. “Let’s retreat for now.”

We could not go into this without a proper plan. While we should be able to get by by using the barrier trick that we have been using this entire time. The fact that this is a boss and the level is like many times that of the first boss is bothering me. “Boss, is something wrong?”

I looked over at Steven, who had asked me the question just now, and sighed. “Major issue! That Goblin Shaman who is surrounded by all those hobgoblins is the second boss of this dungeon. But unlike the first boss, it is about a hundred times stronger, maybe even more. While we may be able to win if we keep doing what we are doing, I have a feeling that we might have to deal with some unexpected attacks. Things that may or may not be able to get through my barriers.”

“That bad?” Steven frowned. He seemed to not like what I had just said. But what am I supposed to do? I was not going to lie to them.

“Faith, even with you fighting with us, there will be an issue?” Sophie asked as she sat down next to me.

“It’s more that the issue is the fact that I might not be able to do much damage to a shaman if it can use a barrier as well. If the barrier is stronger than any spells I can cast within the dungeon, then it will be hard for me to do much of anything. I can only try to use the trick that Instructor Jasmine used against me and strike the same spot over and over and hope to break through the barrier. But this is only if it works.” I tried to explain. A mage of such a high level is probably on par with the dean himself. Such power is not something one can easily defeat. Or at least I have never fought such a powerful foe.

Of course, I should probably start using appraisal on everyone I meet to get a better idea of the power ranges in this world. Although I do not like this since it goes against my morals of peeking, the information will come in handy. And since appraisal is not really a spell and a skill from my system, it should not be detected. At least Steven and the others have not been able to detect it even though I have been checking up on their progress. Although it has slowed some, they are still in the level seventies.

“What if we move our strongest fighters to the front line? You, Sally, and Sei?” Sophie asked. What Sophie suggested makes sense. But the problem is, is that all three are close ranged fighters, myself included.  And one of us needs to protect Adel.

“Sophie…. You come to the front lines as you can phase in and out. Sei needs to protect Adel. We can not leave her alone.” Sophie was the best choice. With Sally being highly skilled in many ways, Sophie’s phase can allow for attacks to pass right through her and attack at the same time.

“Alright. I will do my best.” Sophie’s eyes were filled with determination. I just hope no one will get hurt.

“Everyone gather up!” I yelled out. I wanted to go over a full fleshed out plan. And try to reduce any chances of injuries. As everyone crowded around in a circle and sat down, I stood up and stood in the middle. “The next fight will be unlike any of the others. This is a boss monster, and a powerful one at that. As the name implies, it is able to cast magic, so we will have a harder time trying to deal with them. We can also suspect that the next floors will also have many spell casters on them as well. The team who will be fighting the boss head on, will be myself, Sally, and Sophie. Sei will be on protection duty to make sure Adel is not overwhelmed. But she will also be fighting, helping you guys against the hobgoblins.

“Our main priority is to reduce the chances of gaining any injuries. Stay on your toes and use everything you have learned during this time. I do not want to see anyone get seriously injured or die during this fight. We still have many more floors and another boss to fight before we reach the final boss. Only by beating it will we actually be able to escape this dungeon.

“Steven, you will be the team leader for the right side. Adel, you will be the team leader for the left side, with Sei assisting you. Split up the teams evenly as best as possible and have one healer on each side. Any questions?”  I looked around to see Grace raising her hand. “Grace?”

“I umm…. I lied before… I have the ability to use high heal. So…. If anyone gets seriously injured, I can handle it… I was not supposed to say anything but this is too important. I do not wish to see any of you get seriously injured and sit around doing nothing.” Grace answered with a lowered head.

I smiled and nodded my head. “Good! If anyone gets a single scratch on them go see Grace she will patch you up!”
