As the players launched their combined attack, countless skills were rapidly cast—flames, frost, holy light, shadows.
A dazzling array of colors almost entirely enveloped the Devourer of All Things.
Previously, the players hadn't attacked simultaneously because, unlike Sterl who used the Flowing Water principle to target a single black hole on the boss's body, their combined attacks were more scattered.
Though the Devourer of All Things lacked consciousness, it had self-preservation instincts. It would dodge and redirect other black holes on its body to collectively absorb the damage from the multicolored beams, rendering their attacks ineffective.
In contrast, in the A2 region where Sterl was, the boss had just been born and was in a dazed, weakened state. The players' combined "sneak attack" had wiped out two-thirds of the multicolored light on the critical black holes in its chest and abdomen.
