Eron summoned a big shield knight to cover his rear as he followed the elegantly carved path of destruction Ziedi was creating. The man was just having too much, acrobatically using the chain scythe to surgically cut down bats in the air and on the ground. The attack pattern for the bats consisted of firing rank bile balls that could trigger a ten second poison status, aerial swoops to grab players then dropping them from high places, sonic screeches to push back and disorient players, and melee slashes with their claws up close. They also had no qualms against ganging up on solo players and small groups. Players were getting frantic as they couldn't warp from the area, and even the safe zones were violated. The safe zones due to the special parameters of the event monsters, but the warping was a problem. It meant a hard reset from the game, which is particularly unsettling and of course impossible for the live-ins, who at this point for scrambling for cover, as a death kept resetting them in the same area. The rainbow knights which normally were enemies during a quest had Player Defense Mode, or PDM, an NPC function designed for attacks from enemies like Sixx and Rogue. The algorithm for spawning was off though, the bats were coming too fast and plentiful and the guards were falling behind, even in the enhanced PDM mode. Eron was having a field day even in all the chaos, the bats were dark nature and no match for a few well placed arrows. They most damaging points were the neck and heart area, easily slaying them for easy experience.
"At this rate I'll be six in no time!" Eron said to himself as he ducked, and stabbed an arrow directly into a neck of bat.
The Pyramid kept rotating, steadily getting closer to unlocking the power within.
