Chapter 103. < Episode 33. Unexpected (2). >
3.
The way to catch a monster in God Wars is to reduce its HP to 0.
A very simple formula.
So in God Wars, the dealer had to do well.
But it just didn’t make sense to just do it well.
‘How well the tank deals before the game is over.’
If the tanker gets a game over, the chances of the battle actually failing increase dramatically.
For this reason, damage dealing time was entirely dependent on tanking ability.
The time the tanker can endure is the time the dealer can deal damage.
‘Lucky doesn’t last long.’
And currently, in his party, only Lucky can play the tanking role most perfectly.
No, as soon as the firefighting skill was used, Lucky’s position was fixed as a tank.
Even if others wanted to tank, they couldn’t.
Of course, this has never been a problem so far.
Because Lucky was faster than anyone else, especially through lightning and haste buffs, he didn’t even allow enemies to touch his body.
‘There is no answer if you are pushed out of speed.’
But this time it was different.
Even if Lucky did all the buffs, even potions, there was no chance of winning against the Centaur Knight in a speed battle.
‘Geumgang Buddha is not omnipotent.’
The newly acquired Geumgangbuldeok skill was obviously a great skill, but the opponent was a boss monster.
How long will Lucky be able to hold out against the boss monster with rush and crush skills?
it won’t be long
That means that the damage dealing time given to Midas is also not long.
That’s why Midas wants to end the battle as quickly as possible without any margin.
“Mercenary fever!”
Super electric slaughter!
“Fire Spear and Ice Spear and Fireball!”
Midas, who revealed his determination, immediately began casting three spells at the same time.
[Casting is complete.]
Thanks to the mercenary effect, the casting was done in an instant, and Midas cast his magic beyond the darkness without hesitation.
Without hesitation.
He threw a flame spear at the golden target on the chest of the Centaur Knight, which he could clearly see.
– what? Can’t see anything?
– Why are you throwing it there?
Viewers questioned the fact, but Midas did not answer the question.
Instead, he immediately threw an ice spear, followed by a fireball.
Kwajik!
Perong!
The sound of the magic hitting the target quietly tapped on my ears.
– Did you guess?
– how?
A question rose above the chat window that heard the sound.
Some have raised suspicions.
– Are you using nuclear weapons?
– Wow, nuclear.
Midas is doing something now in an unusual way.
Despite the suspicion, Midas did not bother to explain.
– Assholes, look at the necklace of the BJ master mage! That necklace only points in one direction!
– What kind of game are you watching with those dog eyes!
– You sound like a hack. If you can make a hack that goes through God Wars, selling it will make you richer!
The answer was the existence of a cursed necklace that stretched straight toward the Centaur Knight like the tip of a compass.
Actually, that necklace was the key to this hunting ground.
A key that allows players to accurately determine the location of the Centaur Knight when nothing is visible.
Of course, Midas knew that too, so he didn’t bother to explain.
‘Focus only on the battle.’
“Ice Arrow and Lightning Bolt and Fire Arrow.”
Even all the mental strength and concentration required to explain is invested towards the centaur knight running towards him.
[Casting is complete.]
Eventually, the moment the three magics were completed, the Centaur Knight appeared in front of Midas’ eyes.
Purrung!
The guy who appeared with a rough breath was twice the size of a normal centaur.
Unlike other centaurs, its fur was black.
Among them, the most impressive thing was the black armor that was as coveted as the night sky covering its body.
The helmet, human-shaped upper body, and horse-shaped body were covered with armor, and in one hand, he was holding a large longsword that glowed with black light.
– Could that be a centaur knight? You look like you’re wearing armor?
– Hair and armor are black! Is that a complete protective color?
– The difficulty is damn right. How many times stronger than just a black centaur?
It’s something that makes you feel dizzy just by looking at it.
However, Midas, who was looking directly at such a thing, did not avoid it and drew the bowstring of Wiga’s white staff, which had now turned into a bow.
Dragon’s Eye!
He drew the bowstring nonstop toward the golden chest where the effect could be seen.
That was the reason.
– uh? uh!
– What are you doing?
The reason why the chat window became a mess.
Midas is still holding on to his position against the Centaur Knight.
– Why aren’t you running away?
– Crazy!
It was crazy no matter who saw it.
But that surprise did not last long either.
Purrung!
The moment the distance between Midas and Midas reached about 10 meters, the Centaur Knight used the charge skill and narrowed the distance in one step, leaving the viewers no chance to be surprised.
Like that, the Centaur Knight closed the distance with Midas and swung the large sword he was holding in his hand.
At that moment, Midas stopped attacking and threw himself to the side.
Whoo!
When the Centaur Knight rushed to the place where Midas had been before he threw himself, the blade passed by.
If the timing to dodge was even a little late, the timing was so close that I would have been hit by the sword and fell to the ground.
Clap Clap!
The Centaur Knight, who had passed Midas like that, moved his foot to stop himself, and as soon as the speed slowed down, he started to turn towards Midas.
Ting!
Meanwhile, Midas stood up and drew the remaining arrow.
That was it.
There was no roar announcing Lucky’s life-and-death decision anywhere.
– A life-and-death decision?
– What about Lucky?
The moment everyone questioned the fact, Lucky finally appeared.
king!
Not with a life-or-death decision, but with angry cries.
Heeing!
At the same time, gold using the gigantic skill also appeared.
The two appeared on the left and right of the Centaur Knights and each attacked in their own way.
Krrr!
Lucky aimed for the surest and deadliest part of the Centaur Knight’s ankle area not covered by armor.
thud!
On the other hand, Gold pushed him with a much bigger body than a Centaur Knight.
The appearance of such gold was different from usual.
Heeing!
From his mouth, which would normally have sounded loyal to his master, only sounds that could only be thought of as those of a wild beast came out.
Above all, the eyes were different.
Instead of the usual golden eyes, now they radiated red eyes that seemed to be stained with blood.
Someone who saw it said
– It’s Berserk!
Berserk!
In fact, the chat window became a mess.
– Does the Guardian use a Berserk?
– There’s nothing I can’t do with gigantism, right?
– No, isn’t Berserk and Giant combination the best combination for melee dealing?
That’s because Berserk was an amazing skill.
Purrung!
However, even that attack did not give the Centaur Knight much inspiration.
Far from being inspired, the Centaur Knight looked at Midas with his lucky charm on after deflecting the gold that hit his body with force.
I aimed for the dealer who did the most damage.
In response, Midas took out a staff made from the roots of Biltgar from his inventory.
That was Midas’ answer.
– Could it be that BJ Grand Mage is the tank?
4.
There was only one situation that Midas was concerned about before hunting the Centaur Knight.
If you can’t tank with only Lucky.
That was a very dangerous case.
‘Firefighting can’t be canceled once triggered.’
If he didn’t catch him even after using the death penalty, Lucky would have to pay the price after that.
So what should we do?
Actually, the answer was surprisingly simple.
‘So the use of a life and death decision is delayed until the very end.’
Using a life-or-death decision at the moment when you think you can finish it with certainty.
‘I can tank, so there’s no problem.’
Now that Midas can play a tank role enough, it was an option to choose.
Moreover, Midas had moving casting and indomitable will.
“Fireball and Fire Spear!”
In addition, very fast casting was also possible through the mercenary skill.
That fact allowed Midas to do both tanking and dealing at the same time.
Purrung!
Midas then threw the completed fireball at the Centaur Knight, who was rushing towards him.
It was so fast that I questioned whether I was aiming properly.
However, there was nothing particularly wrong with Midas.
‘It’s chewing gum to match.’
Because it was a target that came straight towards you, it was much easier to hit it.
Perong!
The moment the fireball landed, Midas threw the fire spear right away.
Kwajik!
The Fire Spear was pierced into the body of the Centaur Knight.
Fuck!
At the same time, the Centaur Knight’s attack hit Midas on the shoulder.
Whoa!
Midas’ body fell to the ground at the overwhelming attack.
It was because of the delay in avoiding the attack, but Midas, who had fallen to the floor, was not taken aback.
[The mana shield absorbs part of the damage.]
[Health is recovered by the amount of magic lost through the recycling effect.]
‘Okay, it’s worth it.’
Thanks to the two skills Recycle and Mana Shield, there was no fatal damage.
“Ice Arrow and Wind Arrow!”
On the contrary, the moment Midas fell to the ground, he shouted for the next casting.
Purrung!
In the meantime, the Centaur Knight, who immediately turned his back, lifted his legs high toward the fallen Midas.
A plan to trample Midas!
Recognizing such an attack, Midas began to roll on the floor without rest.
thud!
The centaur knight’s horseshoe, like an awl, struck deeply at the spot where Midas had been.
It was mind-boggling for the viewers.
– Damn I get motion sickness I get motion sickness!
– damage! Avoid properly!
– Does it make sense that a wizard is tanking?
It was an unexpected situation that no one dared to anticipate.
king!
Heeing!
In the meantime, Lucky and Gold clung to the Centaur Knight, who was attacking his master.
First of all, Lucky leaped first and got on the Centaur Knight’s back.
Squeak!
Then, after driving my sharp claws into the hard armor of the Centaur Knight, I bit the top of the armor with my mouth.
Kwajik!
Then the armor was punctured and crushed.
surprise attack.
But more surprising was the gold.
Quaang!
Gold stabbed and pounded the Centaur Knight nonstop with the spear in his right hand.
bang!
In the midst of the attack, he did not forget to put the weight of his body to hinder the movement of the Centaur Knight and lose his balance.
Purrung!
At such an offensive of gold, Centaur Knight, a boss monster that is not a normal monster, hesitates and makes a nervous noise.
[The 1st BJ Lucky fan donated $1.]
[The 1st BJ Gold fan donated $2.]
[The 1st BJ Lucky fan donated $3.] [
The 1st BJ Gold fan donated 4 dollars. Sponsored a dollar.]
[The 1st fan of BJ The Great Mage sponsored 1 won.]
Fans of the two also competed for sponsorship.
In many ways, it was a sight that easily deviated from everyone’s expectations that other players couldn’t show.
But it was not an optimistic sight.
– No, you are good at dealing, but the amount of dealing is not coming out, right?
– In the end, the dealer has to make a deal to finish?
– You may not know that BJ Grand Mage is forced to tank, but this is not the case.
After all, isn’t it Midas who can do the most powerful dealing in a Midas party?
In a situation where such Midas can’t deal properly, tanking and the remaining two deal?
– What to do when the duration of Mercenary is over?
Even more so, Midas’ time, which had already used all the buffs he could, was constantly decreasing.
Meaning that the time when he can be the most powerful is disappearing while tanking.
In terms of common sense, it was an inefficient sight for anyone to see.
And that sight has become more nonsensical.
Purrung!
The centaur knight who was chasing Midasman suddenly took a deep breath and looked at Gold.
That was a clear sign.
– Why are you looking at gold here?
– Could it be that the aggro went over?
It means that aggro has passed from Midas to Gold.
-Wait, boss monsters usually attract aggro to the side with the highest amount of damage?
– then?
That also meant that the damage Gold gave to the Centaur Knight surpassed that of Midas.
Of course, this would not have been possible if Midas had purely focused on damage dealing.
Anything that could happen if Midas couldn’t deal because he was tanking.
‘come!’
It was also the moment Midas had been waiting for.
While Gold draws aggro against the Centaur Knight for a while, Midas will be able to pour powerful firepower once again.
‘It’s aggro ping pong.’
The so-called aggro ping-pong began when the tanks exchanged aggro from the boss monster.
In fact, it would have been difficult without the help of aggro skills like Firefight.
Even if it’s just Midas right now, because of the long toss effect, the damage varies depending on the distance from time to time. Does it perfectly calculate your damage? Moreover, unlike other games, in God Wars, there was no way to see the HP values of monsters in real time.
Because of this, most of them reacted only after the monster took action.
And that ability became a skill.
In terms of baseball, it was like a pitcher’s best speed to grasp changes in the monster faster and react faster.
‘I can see my HP, but if I can’t calculate the amount of damage, I’ll have to leave.’
However, Midas, who could see all of that, was able to react even before the monster’s actions came out.
– Where did you stand?
– I reacted immediately to the fact that BJ Grand Mage went over to Aggro!
– Possess reaction speed with!
From the viewer’s point of view, the reaction is bound to be surprising.
Midas, standing up like that, stretched out his hand.
Whiririk!
Then, Wiga’s white cane, which had been scattered in the distance, was caught in his hand.
Now it’s time to do damage dealing.
Of course, there wasn’t much time to do that damage deal.
Perong!
Midas’ damage dealing, which started with determination, brought the aggro that was aimed at gold back to Midas at once.
Purrung!
The Centaur Knight immediately turned his back and looked at Midas, ignoring the gold that collided with him.
Perong!
A fireball stuck in the body of such a Centaur Knight.
That was the moment.
[The centaur knight’s footsteps become lighter.]
At the same time as the announcement, the wind gathered under the centaur knight’s feet like a whirlpool.
– I think we’re in phase 2? what?
– Hey, could that be Haste?
– You say it gets faster in this state?
The moment Haste activates.
At the same time, the haze that had risen from Midas’ body began to go out in an instant.
[The effect of mercenary fever disappears.]
It was a signal that the duration of mercenary fever was over.
– Fucked. I just started phase 2, but the mercenary is off.
Absolutely worst timing.
[Azmo sponsored $10,000.]
[Azmo: RIP]
In fact, starting with Azmo, not a few viewers started sponsoring consolation money.
That’s a bad situation no matter who sees it.
But Midas smiled instead.
‘It’s as calculated.’
With that smile, Midas shouted.
“Lucky, it’s a life-or-death decision!”
At that command, Lucky roared without hesitation.
K-King!
[Lucky expresses his will to fight against the Centaur Knight.] An
intense roar shook the Centaur Knight’s body along with the black mist wind.
– A life and death decision here?
– You’re not trying to throw away BJ Lucky and run away, are you?
– The moment you throw away BJ Lucky, you will never see BJ Grand Mage live again!
If you use it once in a situation where dealing cannot be done properly, you use an irreversible firefight?
This, too, was unexpected for everyone.
“Immortality!”
Then, a new skill, Diamond Steel, was activated, and Lucky’s fur began to harden like steel.
Purrung!
At the same time, the Centaur Knight charged at Lucky with more hostility than ever before.
– Geumgang Bulgogi?
– There is no time to be surprised! Shoot Sponsored! Let’s crush the BJ Gold fans!
Lucky with a new skill called Geumgang Bulgogi and Haste activated Centaur Knight!
The Rising Star channel focused on that fierce battle, and viewers’ attention was also focused there.
Same with Midas.
With all his nerves focused on the fierce battle between the two, he quietly cast a spell.
“Replay.”
Viewers were horrified by the cry.
– You just said replay right?
– Maybe that replay?
– Oh no way. Replay is a skill that can only be used as an item, right?
– Isn’t that just bullshit?
With the unexpected appearance of skill, some viewers doubted what they would hear.
Midas told them clearly.
[Used the replay skill. You can use one of the skills you used without a cooldown.]
“Mercenary fever.”
I didn’t hear it wrong.
However, even after the mercenary fever was activated, viewers could not easily believe it even after seeing the fact.
Honestly, who would have predicted that a replay would come out here and that Mercenaries would be rewritten with that replay?
[Azmo sponsored $10,000.]
[Azmo: If there is a replay, you have to say it! Give back the money I gave you!]
A situation that even Azmo did not expect.
Midas spoke in a situation where it was meaningless to expect any more.
“No jam broadcast starts.”
