Started with a 10,000x Multiplier in a Game World

The five remaining Scarlet Porcupines violently shook their massive bodies and unleashed a second synchronized volley of glowing explosive red quills.

The projectiles filled the narrow volcanic tunnel and arched directly toward the twelve-man party.

Garrick braced himself behind his red [Spiteful Bulwark] and was ready to absorb the massive artillery strike.

Aria didn’t hide behind the shield.

The Level 15 Soul Weaver stood perfectly still, and her beginner linen dress was completely unsuited for the scorching environment. She closed her eyes and blew softly into the delicate wooden flute.

The sound wasn’t a standard musical note. It didn’t whistle or chirp.

It was a deep, resonant, and impossibly clear hum that instantly drowned out the aggressive roaring of the magma rivers and the explosive cracking of the incoming quills.

The system interface for every single player in the party violently flashed a brilliant blinding gold.

[Hidden Class Skill Activated: Hymn of Strength]

Aria didn’t cast a spell on a single target. The melody actively rewrote the systemic baseline of the entire twelve-man squad.

[Party Buff Applied: Absolute Empowerment.]

[Effect 1: Total Attack Power increased by 100%.]

[Effect 2: Grants a flat +1,000 True Damage to all offensive actions.]

[Effect 3: Critical Hit Rate locked at 100%.]

Dante stared at the prompt hovering in his vision.

"She just doubled the damage of everyone," Nyx whispered in absolute shock. Her datapad actively glitched as it tried to process the sudden astronomical spike in the cumulative threat level of the party.

"And she added a flat true damage modifier. And guaranteed criticals."

"I am a god!" Casanova roared and felt the massive surge of raw power flooding his avatar.

The explosive quills slammed into the red dome of Garrick.

The impact wasn’t a desperate struggle this time.

The [Hymn of Strength] didn’t just buff attack stats.

The sheer volume of mana pouring from the melody of Aria actively fortified the digital structure of the entire party.

The shield of Garrick barely even rippled as it completely absorbed the barrage.

"My turn," Dante said softly.

He didn’t need to burn his health pool with [Blood Sacrifice] to achieve absurd numbers. Aria had just handed him a execution buff that applied to his entire arsenal.

Dante swung the [Dawn-Breaker Blade].

[Skill Executed: Aether-Blade Projection]

He didn’t fire a single crescent. With [Chrono-Shift] completely removing the cooldown, he rapidly slashed his sword five times in less than a second.

Five massive glowing golden crescents of compressed kinetic energy shot down the tunnel.

The base damage of the Zenith-tier skill was doubled by the buff of Aria.

The flat +1,000 True Damage bypassed the Gold-tier armor of the Porcupines completely. And the guaranteed 100% Critical Hit Chance applied the maximum possible damage multiplier.

The five golden crescents slammed into the line of Scarlet Porcupines.

[-65,000! OVERKILL!]

[-65,000! OVERKILL!]

[-65,000! OVERKILL!]

The five massive rhino-sized beasts didn’t even have time to shriek.

The sheer overwhelming mathematical force of the buffed attack completely vaporized them.

They exploded into a synchronized blinding shower of blue and silver polygons simultaneously.

The tunnel fell dead silent.

Dante slowly lowered his sword. He turned around and looked at the tiny girl holding the wooden flute.

Aria opened her eyes and lowered the instrument.

She looked incredibly nervous and stared at the empty space where the massive bosses had just been standing.

"Was that okay?" Aria asked quietly and clutched the flute to her chest. "I did not pull aggro, did I?"

"You doubled our entire damage output," Sera stated and stared at the girl in absolute disbelief. "That is an endgame raid buff. And you are Level 15."

"It is a continuous cast," Nyx noted and pushed her dark glasses up.

"She does not have a cooldown on the song. As long as she plays the flute, the buff stays active. The only limitation is her mana pool."

"I have a lot of mana," Aria offered helpfully and smiled shyly.

"That is genuinely terrifying," Casanova muttered and looked at the innocent-looking teenager. "She could turn a group of beginners into a hit squad just by playing a tune."

Before they could further analyze her ridiculous class scaling, the system interface flashed again.

[Zone Alert: The Flame Cave]

[Warning: Ambient temperature rising to critical levels. Severe thermal damage imminent.]

The magma rivers flowing beneath the iron grates didn’t just bubble. They violently churned.

The ambient heat in the narrow tunnel spiked aggressively and completely bypassed the [Lord’s Elemental Talisman] Dante had distributed to the party.

The [Searing Atmosphere] debuff ticked.

[-500 HP]

[-500 HP]

[-500 HP]

The entire party groaned as the heavy unavoidable environmental damage hit them simultaneously.

The massive health pool of Dante and [Source of Recovery] passive easily mitigated the burn.

But the recruited independent players in the backline were rapidly losing health.

The two recruited healers frantically began casting restorative spells.

But their baseline mana pools were burning out trying to combat the constant 500 HP per second drain on twelve different targets.

"We cannot sustain this," one of the healers yelled, and her staff glowed weakly. "The environmental tick is too high! We need to move!"

"Do not panic," Aria said softly.

She didn’t run. She didn’t look for a cooling ward.

She raised the wooden flute to her lips again.

The melody completely changed.

It wasn’t the deep aggressive hum of the strength buff. It was a light, incredibly soothing, and airy tune that sounded like a cool breeze flowing through wind chimes.

[Hidden Class Skill Activated: Life Song]

The interface flashed a brilliant calming silver.

[Party Buff Applied: Absolute Restoration.]

[Effect: Grants a continuous passive health regeneration of 1,000 HP per second to all allied entities within hearing range. Cleanses all minor environmental debuffs. Provides absolute immunity to negative status effects while active.]

The intense suffocating heat in the tunnel vanished instantly.

The burning sensation across the avatars of the party completely ceased.

The 500 HP per second environmental drain was violently overwritten by the massive 1,000 HP per second regeneration.

The recruited healers stared at their staves, and their jaws completely dropped.

"One thousand health a second," the lead healer whispered in pure unadulterated awe. "She is out-healing the entire environment passively. I... I am completely useless."

"I love this song," Casanova sighed happily and stretched his arms. "It feels like a spa day."

Aura was hovering above the shoulder of Dante and let out a short and slightly indignant chime.

The Grade 8 Mystic Sovereign puffed her cheeks out and glared down at the tiny girl playing the flute.

Aura was the primary healer of the squad. Her [Resurgence Wave] was an instant 50% max-health restore.

But the continuous and massive passive regeneration of Aria was functionally identical in utility for sustained fights.

The little celestial fox clearly felt her monopoly on party support was being threatened.

Dante smiled and reached up to gently pat the glowing sprite on the head.

"Do not worry," Dante whispered to his pet. "Her songs require active casting and drain mana."

"Your heal is an instant pulse, and your [Aegis of the Harbinger] provides absolute invulnerability. You are still the safety net. She is just keeping the room temperature down."

Aura chirped softly and accepted the reasoning, but continued to eye the flute player suspiciously.

"Alright," Dante called out and stepped forward. "Aria keeps the healing song up. We do not stop moving. Let us clear the rest of this tunnel."

With the continuous 1,000 HP/sec regeneration of Aria actively overriding all environmental hazards and minor trap damage, the twelve-man squad marched through the Flame Cave with terrifying efficiency.

Dante used [Dragon’s Insight] to systematically identify the hidden pressure plates and magma vents.

Mei used her [God-Slaying Skillet] to casually bat away any stray fireballs.

Lila dropped [Gravity Wells] to pin the remaining patrols of Scarlet Porcupines, and Dante executed them from a distance with [Aether-Blade Projection].

They didn’t break a sweat. They didn’t burn a single health potion.

They reached the end of the volcanic tunnel system in less than ten minutes.

The narrow jagged corridor opened up into a massive sprawling subterranean caldera.

The environment was a stark contrast to the dark cramped tunnels.

The caldera was brightly lit by a massive central lake of pure white-hot magma.

Towering pillars of black obsidian rose from the liquid fire. They connected via heavy iron chains to a large circular stone platform suspended directly in the center of the lake.

And resting on that platform waiting for them was the true final boss of the event dungeon.

It wasn’t a massive lumbering beast or a corrupted knight.

It was a woman.

She stood nearly ten feet tall, and her skin was a deep ashen gray. She wore incredibly ornate flowing robes woven from pure liquid fire.

Six massive blazing wings of scarlet flame erupted from her back to cast a terrifying heatwave across the caldera.

She held a long curved staff forged from black glass topped with a glowing pulsing red gem.

[True Boss Spawn: Scarlet Flame Water Wyrm (Ascended Form)]

[Tier: Divine]

[Level: 50]

[HP: 5,000,000 / 5,000,000]

"That is not a Wyrm," Casanova pointed out immediately.

"It is an Ascended form," Nyx typed rapidly on her datapad. Her glasses reflected the intense glare of the magma lake.

"The boss devoured the Fire Roc and assimilated its cosmic weight."

"It evolved from a beast into a Divine-tier humanoid entity. The health pool is absolutely massive. Five million HP."

"A Level 50 Divine entity," Sera stated, her voice tight with genuine concern.

"Dante, the scaling on this is completely broken. The system dynamically boosted the boss to match your Level 72 baseline."

"We cannot fight a five-million health pool in an open arena with magma traps."

"We do not have to," Dante said calmly.

He didn’t draw the [Dawn-Breaker Blade]. He didn’t summon [Voidsever].

He opened his infinite inventory.

"Ryujin was very generous today," Dante smiled.

He pulled the heavy glowing scroll out of his void ring. It was forged from thick dark parchment and sealed with a brilliant blinding white wax emblem.

The [All Lives Are Equal Scroll].

The Saint Destroyer-tier consumable he had looted off the Guild Master of the Sakura Nation after casually executing him in the staging area.

Dante held the massive scroll up. The white wax seal caught the light of the magma lake.

"Let us see how much she likes fighting on a level playing field," Dante said.
