Chapter 119. < Episode 38. Forest of trolls (3). >
8.
Twin-headed trolls.
Those who first encountered this unmatched monster were often terrified by its size.
And after overcoming that fear and starting the battle, most of them had similar thoughts.
uh? Easier than you think?
It was not an illusion.
In Phase 1, the Twin Head Troll’s attack and behavior patterns were very simple.
The problem starts when the second phase, called One Head Mode, which starts when HP drops below 80%, is activated.
– Close your eyes!
One Head Mode As the expression suggests, from the second phase, one of the two heads of the twin-headed troll closed its eyes and fell into sleep.
– Which one?
– The left side is closed!
– Then the right eye is open, so it’s in attack mode?
And depending on the head that opened his eyes, his fighting style changed.
The moment the right head opened its eyes, it was in attack mode, and its basic stats rose by 20%.
big!
At the same time, it showed a very reckless attack pattern.
I just attacked without thinking about defense, and there were cases where I rushed towards it the moment I reacted to the attack of the ranged dealer. It’s like a rugby ball-shaped bomb that doesn’t know where it will bounce.
– What’s with the left head?
b Defense mode.
On the other hand, the moment the left head was active was in defense mode.
Defense increased by 30%, and the behavior pattern was also defensive. When an active attack came, I crouched down or used my arms or nearby trees to protect myself.
– Then you’re going to do damage dealing when you’re left-headed?
b Usually it is.
For this reason, the standard strategy for the two-headed troll was to run away when the right head opened its eyes and deal damage when the left head opened its eyes.
– normally?
b Because you never know when the left head will open its eyes.
The problem is that the timing of the head change is arbitrary.
‘I don’t know when it might pop up, so it’s not easy to check if it pops up.’
And it was also very difficult to catch the fact that the head that opened the eyes had changed.
It is difficult to even imagine judging the facial expression of a person who is 1 meter taller than oneself.
But at close range, you can determine whether a six-meter monster has its eyes open or closed?
It was impossible at close range.
If so, you have to judge from a distance, but there was a problem that the distance was far.
Because there was no way I could see anything farther away.
‘Especially when in combat.’
How much more quickly to figure it out in the middle of a fierce life-and-death battle?
It was either one.
Either you were born with a talent or you just did a lot of research and study analysis.
‘So I researched… … ‘
Midas, of course, was the latter.
In order to notice mode changes more quickly, behavior patterns according to mode changes have been studied, and in order to understand them more, what distance and direction are needed, where to position yourself, and countless cases in mind. .
‘It’s become useless.’
But, unfortunately, that effort has been futile.
big!
[19 seconds]
Above each of the twin-headed trolls’ heads was a large number indicating the length of time they were active.
‘Now, after 19 seconds, it’s left head mode.’
Thanks to this, Midas didn’t have to use a complicated calculator in his head.
I just looked at that number and prepared for the skill cooldown early.
“Left head! Dealing goes in! Lightning Ball and Ice Ball and Fire Ball!”
And the moment the mode changed, the moment the left head opened its eyes, Midas reacted and moved immediately.
– Look at the reaction speed!
– Responds as soon as you open your eyes.
– Is that possible?
Viewers who had no way of knowing that fact were simply amazed at the reaction speed.
“It was the same last time, but the reaction speed of BJ Archmage is not at the level, but at the top level.”
“It seems like Merlin is the only wizard with that level of reaction speed.”
On the other hand, from the point of view of those who wanted to catch the BJ archmage, only short moans flowed out.
That was the reason.
– No, why is no one intruding? Did you come a lot?
– At this point, one or two people might attack, but it’s quiet.
The reason why not a single incident occurred even though the twin head troll entered phase 2 even after 6 minutes had passed since the battle started.
‘Ah, I can’t even play with this.’
‘If I go in now, I’ll be destroyed unconditionally.’
It was obvious what it would be like if I went in to catch BJ Grand Mage, who was leisurely eating away the HP of the twin head troll, just to appear on the air.
‘Especially when you look at that reaction speed.’
Moreover, most of those who tried to do such tricks weren’t even very skilled.
If he really had excellent skills or had certain strength such as item setting, he would have wanted to catch BJ Grand Mage seriously, not jokingly.
‘As expected.’
Of course, this too was what Midas expected.
exactly aimed at
If the game was small, the gossips would have intruded as a joke, but if the game is bigger, the story changes.
‘I didn’t know it would be this comfortable.’
To be precise, the situation was more comfortable than expected.
‘Now then, shall we begin?’
So, Midas naturally moved on to the next step.
king!
“You bastard!”
In the midst of Lucky and Gold’s aggressive attack, Midas threw the fireball in his hand at the twin-headed troll, who raised his arms like a boxer to cover himself.
“Fire Spear, Ice Spear, and Lightning Spear!”
Then, he immediately cast 3 spear magics.
“Now, shall we have a little chat while casting?”
And he opened his mouth through the free time he had.
Viewers also responded that they had been waiting for it.
– BJ Lucky is playing dealer here!
– Stop riding BJ Gold’s bus and drop out!
– Wow, they eat it raw! Are you changing dealers?
Viewers were laughing at each other.
Seeing that, Midas also smiled.
However, the inside was different.
‘I have to show it to those who are aiming for my boss monster here today.’
Most of the boss monster steals didn’t happen because they were afraid of the aftermath.
The background is the biggest reason.
That’s why players with good skills used to find better guilds.
However, Midas had no such background.
If Midas is really stealing, his bare face is revealed.
From Midas’ point of view, it was something that had to be avoided at all costs, and there was only one thing Midas could do for that.
‘If you touch me, you’ll get fucked more than I thought.’
How much risk do those who want to touch BJ Grand Mage have to bear?
“It’s much quieter than that. When I looked around a little while ago, it seemed like there were quite a few. And according to the information I obtained through my personal route in advance, many guilds came.”
The first was public.
“The Scarf Guild came to Red Snake, of course.”
Midas He began to mention one of the famous guilds that came here.
“The French side of the triple chord guild, the Chinese side of the Oh Seongmun guild, the Japanese Orochi guild and the South African Guild of Good Hope.”
One by one, kindly even to the country they belong to.
The chat window reaction to such an explanation became a mess.
– Oh my God, is that true?
– The face is gorgeous.
– There are at least tier 2 and tier 1.
– All but the 10 guilds seem to have come?
It was because the mentioned guild aspect was very flashy.
– No, more than that, how does BJ Grand Mage know that?
– What is the alternative information power?
Above all, the fact that Midas knew it in such detail was a surprise to viewers.
Midas gladly gave an explanation to such a question.
“Well, there are many other things, but…. To be honest, I couldn’t memorize them all. From now on, I’ll have to tell my friend who is looking for information for me. Except for the top 100 guilds, just take care of it and ignore it.”
‘Information power is what I saw a while ago.’
Of course it was a trick.
‘But I have no choice but to believe it.’
However, most of them would probably mistakenly believe that there was some force that gave Midas such advanced information.
“Ah, personally, I didn’t know to retaliate. There will be no bad relations with the guilds mentioned here. Ah, casting is over.”
At that moment, Midas, who had finished casting, began throwing the spear in his hand at the twin-headed trolls once again.
In the meantime, many words came and went in the chat window.
– It’s not just this time, what next time?
– It would be impossible to hide and secretly catch BJ Grand Mage.
– I heard a rumor that this event itself is to make a blacklist?
– The large corporations sponsored by BJ Grand Mage cut off their sponsors from the participating guilds!
– What’s the sponsor?
At that moment, Midas’ words were expanded and reproduced and spread all over the world.
And the stories reproduced in this way were also passed on to those who came here.
“You know who we are?”
“How? Did you hide it well?”
Private broadcasting chat window The faces of the players who saw and received this fact through the chat window began to harden.
At that time, Midas, who fired the last ice spear in his hand, spat out the words as if remembering something.
“Oh, and by the way, there was also a hunting snake guild.”
Words that are thrown out as if tossed.
However, those words shocked him more than any other words Midas had ever uttered.
– A hunting snake guild?
– The 3rd largest non-manners guild?
That would be the case, because the notoriety that the Huntsnake Guild had accumulated was, in a sense, the next level after that of the 10th guild.
“A hunting snake guild?”
“They said the damn people were here?”
And for Tier 1 guilds, it was one of the top priorities to be eradicated.
Because the notoriety they had accumulated was at the expense of such famous guilds as no one else.
Of course, there were also doubters.
“Ah, I don’t have a grudge against the Hunting Snake Guild. It’s ridiculous to have a grudge against the person who helped me so much in catching Ghost last time. I am still grateful.”
However, Midas’ words that followed quickly reduced the weight of the doubt.
– Well, the only intruders who can act alone with stealth and legendary weapons are the hunting snake guild.
‘There is no place other than the Hunted Snake Guild that can give an assassin a legendary weapon and even make that assassin move alone.’
Midas, who threw out all the words to throw, shouted.
“Attack mode! Lucky gold scattered!”
The moment the twin-headed troll’s right head opened its eyes, Midas commanded and he himself began to move quickly.
big!
The quiet battlefield turned into a commotion again.
However, those who came to the battlefield aiming for BJ Grand Mage could not easily focus on the turmoil.
Rather, they began to be wary of the surroundings, not the BJ great mage.
‘There is a hunting snake guild.’
‘I can’t compromise with that family.’
The fact that the hunting snake guild is here means that those who are here can become targets at any time.
Their notoriety was too high to ignore their existence.
‘I can’t use porridge and give you a snake.’
In particular, it is true that the scenario of the worst scenario, BJ Daemage, who was caught with difficulty, but eventually defeated by the hunting snake guild, has no choice but to flicker in my head.
‘Should I continue like this?’
On the one hand, I waited for an answer.
Is it really okay to continue the hunt for the BJ master mage while the hunting snake guild exists?
It wasn’t just them that were worried.
– wait for a sec! Let’s talk about it above!
– Wait! Once I get an answer from above, I’ll let you know!
The supporters supporting them were also busy with this sudden situation.
big!
In the meantime, BJ Grand Mage steadily and quickly reduced the Twin Head Troll’s HP.
That was the moment.
“Mercenary fever!”
That cry shook the battlefield in an instant.
– It’s dragon fever!
“Fever time?”
The mercenary is also an expression of BJ’s great mage’s will to deal damage in earnest.
It meant stepping on the accelerator pedal.
And now, there was one reason why I stepped on the accelerator pedal.
– Are you planning to end it here?
– You haven’t activated phase 3 yet?
to end this war.
– Nonsense.
– There’s no way that’s possible.
Of course, under normal circumstances, this would not have been possible.
– The moment you enter the 3rd phase, the survival instinct skill is activated!
The Twin Head Troll’s survival instinct skill, which lowers HP to 20% or less, is activated, and the moment this is activated, the Twin Head Troll becomes aggressive enough to be colorless with aggro management, and at the same time, the speed of HP recovery is very fast.
What was more troublesome was when the HP of the two-headed troll, whose survival instinct skill was activated, reached 30%.
In that case, the twin head troll went back to Phase 2.
In other words, it means that you have to attack phase 3 again.
But stepping on the accelerator pedal while the second phase has not yet finished?
Honestly, that was a declaration of abandonment of the raid.
– But you’re a BJ master mage, aren’t you?
‘The opponent is a BJ master mage.’
However, the fact that the person here now is none other than the BJ Grand Mage made that number a winning number.
“Everyone stand by!”
That’s why all the waiting players pulled the strings of tension tight at the appearance of the BJ archmage.
“The moment you enter phase 3, look at the situation and move!”
and then prepared
In that situation, Midas started dealing damage without looking back.
The deal was fantastic.
Without restlessly looking back, he cast his magics without a single cooldown failure, and hit the twin head troll’s chest perfectly.
Perong!
Everyone was amazed at the amazing hit rate.
“You bastard!”
king!
In the meantime, the damage dealing with Lucky and Gold was also indescribable.
gulp!
A sight that will make those who see it swallow their saliva.
Still, everyone started counting down.
‘The duration of the mercenary fever is short.’
May the mercenary fever end.
Of course, everyone had it in mind.
‘But there is a replay.’
Replay If you use that skill, it’s possible to step on the accelerator pedal once more.
In the midst of such cases, Phase 3 was activated.
big!
Aaah!
The twin-headed troll’s two heads let out a scream at the same time, revealing its ferocity to the world.
Midas shouted at such a ferocious cry.
“Lucky!”
In that moment, everyone felt it.
– It’s a win-win.
‘A firefight? Or a new card?’
Here, BJ Grand Mage is going to take out the card prepared.
Naturally, everyone’s senses focused on Midas’ mouth.
In the midst of everyone’s attention, Midas shouted with sincerity.
“Sorry, I made a mistake in calculating the deal!”
Along with that cry, Midas shouted.
“Bounce!”
