Orbis Online
206. Hidden Room
It took him at least fifteen minutes until the entire Reus status returned to normal as it was, he was able to move around freely after the Dragonman Form side effects and Astral Protocol abilities ended.
Reus immediately got up and did a little warm-up worried that his body had cramps if it moved suddenly after staying still for quite a long time. He also found his stamina, HP, as well as Energy had recovered quite a lot.
"Hm.... HP and Energy can recover on their own, but not with my Equip."
Reus grumbled softly when he found the condition of the Dragon Scale Cloak to look so pitiful, now the dragon scales robe can no longer be called a robe because of its appearance which only remains part of the arm and a small scale on the chest.
"I think I'll have Ikshan repair this armor again later if possible. I hope it can."
Having said that, Reus changed the Dragon Scale Cloak and the entire Dragon Equip series into an ordinary Equip, not wanting to damage the valuable equipment any further.
Even though Ikshan was able to repair everything as he had, the supply of Dragon Scale in Inventory Reus was still limited even in incredible numbers. He did not want to spend such a precious Material like Dragon Scale too quickly.
The reason behind the Dragon Scale Cloak's damage as well as Reus' condition being turned into a vengeful spirit for a while was because the Astral Protocol was none other than the Four-Headed Dragon King's last attack.
The Dragon Beam Unison that deployed the four-headed giant dragon statue of the two— was no miss considering how small the distance between Reus and the Dungeon Boss was. Reus received the massive attack decisively without any resistance until his HP nearly touched the zero number many times.
Lucky for Reus who had the innate skill of the Freelancer class, HP Stack, he could avoid instant death from such a powerful attack.
HP Stack has the ability to store HP points that can be retrieved at any time needed, if needed, but when the user's HP is close to zero, the stored HP will be automatically sucked to keep HP so that users stay alive.
Another reason why Reus was able to survive the attacks as terrible as Dragon Beam Unison was the effects of Dragonman Form, Dragon Crown, and Dragon Incarnation that were still active at the last seconds.
If not for the enhanced status of Vit Reus of no less than 1,000% then this silvery-white-haired youth would have been depleted before landing the finishing strike to crush his opponent.
"And thanks to that in addition to the Dragon series Equip, Dur Balmung's status is also in danger."
Reus looked at the sword with red dragon claws on its hilt before sighing heavily, grateful Balmung was not destroyed after being hit by the Dragon Beam Unison.

"If I still insist on using Blackstar's Black Form...."
Reus could imagine what it would be like if he did not put Blackstar into the Inventory just before it was hit by the Dragon Beam Unison, it might not only be destroyed but it could be melted into dust.
If that really happened then not only was he frustrated, but he might also receive a severe punishment from Randolf for allowing an extraordinary heirloom like Blackstar to perish at his hands. It was not impossible that Randolf would continue to kill him until he dropped dozens of levels.
"Well, I can take care of that later. Now there's nothing less important."
Reus then turned his attention towards a large hole in the wall of the former Wallface of Seven Dragon King was located which turned out to be a hidden room behind the wall.
The Four-Headed Dragon King Statue and the Wallface of Seven Dragon King were one and the same figure, both being the Dungeon Boss of the Ruins of Seven Dragon King. The difference is that Wallface is a boss who does not move and gives the impression of guarding, while Four-Headed is the opposite.
He stepped closer to the hidden room after storing Balmung into the Inventory with high vigilance.
It was true that it was certain that the Wallface of the Seven Dragon King and the Four-Headed Dragon King Statue were the Dungeon Boss of this Ruins of Seven Dragon King judging from their levels, but it is not uncommon in RPG genre games like Orbis Online hidden room has something called Hidden Boss.
As the name suggests Hidden Boss is the hidden boss in a Dungeon. They are like Field Boss but the presence or absence of them can not be predicted because since the first release of Orbis Online, there have not been more than a hundred Hidden Boss known to exist to date.
Hidden Boss is indeed very rare because not only because certain Dungeons have hidden rooms, but also the possibility of finding Hidden Boss among ten hidden rooms is only one.
In addition to the rarest of every Hidden Boss is also rumored to have troublesome Buff and Debuff abilities, which are also very rare, if you had to choose then people who had fought the Hidden Boss would prefer to face the Dungeon Boss so troublesome.
Naturally behind the difficulty surpassing that Dungeon Boss, the reward of defeating Hidden Boss was tempting to many players, though, even the great Legion would not let go of the Hidden Boss if it found him despite having to pay a heavy price just for the sake of defeating him alone.
According to the news circulating, most of the high-quality Ultra Equip as well as Growth Items that are widely known among players are obtained from certain Hidden Bosses. Not to mention the possibility of treasures in the hidden room where the Hidden Boss resides.
This is what makes Hidden Boss so hunted by players and NPCs.
Reus himself was exhausted and his best equipment was in tatters after an all-out fight against Wallface and Four-Headed, respectively, if the hidden room of the Ruins of Seven Dragon King is guarded by a Hidden Boss then he can only resign if he cannot escape.
"Hopefully there are no dangerous surprises."
Muttering so Reus gulped his saliva steadying his heart before taking a step further into the hidden room. Just a few steps Reus took suddenly the torch on the wall lit up gradually from the entrance towards the side of the room furthest away like the boss room.
Reus' heart beat faster when he found the welcome. As he declared not wanting to fight more for today, he received a welcome like preparation against a Dungeon Boss.
When all the torches on the walls lit up brightly and lit up the entire room with flames, Reus' forehead shriveled slightly to find the scene unfolding before his eyes.
"What's this?"
