127. Hive Mind 4
“Blood donation?”
“We will use Mr. Le Peny’s blood.”
There are cases in which the blood of creatures on the Azul continent has a unique power. Enhance items, heal wounds, detect poisons, etc.
Among them, the blood of the magic repulsor has a very strong magic repulsion effect. Kang Seung-hyeon intends to use the blood as a weapon.
“You want to use my blood on that bastard?”
“yes.”
“It will definitely work.”
If the blood of the magic resister gets on your body, you won’t be able to use your skills until you wipe it off. If he tried to use a skill in that state, sparks would immediately burst from his entire body.
“But what are you going to do?”
“What?”
“I can’t use things like [Throw] or [Splash].”
In addition, due to the nature of the magic resister’s blood, it cannot be used in combination with other skills or items.
If you accidentally use the [Throwing] skill while throwing blood, it will immediately cancel the skill and cause the magic backflow to explode and self-destruct.
“Well, if you throw it without a skill, there won’t be a backflow of magical energy… but will that bastard respond meekly?”
Gordius knows that Le Peny is a magic deflector. Proof of this is that when he gets close, he doesn’t use skills and attacks only with flat hits.
“I don’t know if the speed is slow again.”
“He’s a damn quick friend.”
Gordius’ speed is also incredibly fast, so he can’t hit the attack without using his skills.
“Above all, the shed blood will lose its magic repelling effect over time. If left alone, it will just turn into normal blood, so you can’t even set traps.”
Magic Repulsor’s Blood is a powerful item, but difficult to handle. If you make the slightest mistake, it explodes and cannot be stored for a long time.
It was rarely used as a combat or crafting material because of its disadvantages.
“Ah, if that’s the case, no problem.”
Seunghyun Kang said with a smile.
He was a person who never lost his composure under any circumstances and could turn a crisis into an opportunity or reverse it.
“I have a good strategy.”
-Kang Seung-hyun and Le Peny ended their brief conversation.
“Let’s get out of the infirmary first.”
“good! Let’s do it!”
Tadadat!
First, Seunghyun Kang started to run away from the infirmary. Le Peny also left the infirmary following Kang Seung-hyun.
“Are you running away?”
Watching the two run away, Gordius braced himself.
When you don’t want to fight the boss in a dungeon, it’s common sense to run outside. Boss monsters usually can’t get out of the entrance portal.
“Do something useless.”
However, the transition dungeon is different.
Since there is no such thing as an entrance portal, you can come out as much as you like.
[Second speed]
Blame it!
Gordius increased his movement speed and sprinted at great speed to pursue the two.
“By the way…”
Peruk!
At that time, Le Peni, who had passed the door of the infirmary, kicked the stone wall and smashed it.
“You have to give back what you received!”
Koo Goo Goo!!
At the same time, the ceiling collapsed, and shards of rock that poured out blocked the entrance door to the infirmary. The situation is similar to the one Gordius imprisoned Kang Seung-hyeon and the others earlier.
“…”
Kwaaaaaang!
Of course, Gordius is also a boss monster with tremendous skills. The guy swung his sword without hesitation and pierced the blocked door.
‘He disappeared.’
However, Kang Seung-hyun and his party turned that brief gap into an opportunity. Gordius had disappeared somewhere while breaking the rock.
‘Even if I did, it only increased my lifespan by a few minutes.’
Quack!
Gordius stuck his sword into the wall and let his magic flow.
The magic that flowed into the wall contacted the swarm of scarabs sleeping in the cracks in the rocks.
Buses’s!
Then the petrification broke and a swarm of awakened scarabs poured out. They noisily flapped their wings and scattered all over the hideout.
‘Here he is.’
Gordius spread the scarab and found Kang Seung-hyeon and his party.
Le Peny’s location was on the corner not far from the infirmary.
‘Are you planning on taking a surprise attack? It’s a pitiful idea.’
Le Peny stood up with a nervous face, perhaps trying to surprise Gordius.
Tadat!
‘good night. I’ll take care of you first.’
Gordius decided to attack Le Peny first. This is because if you use a magic repulsor as a host, you can obtain a powerful skill canceling ability.
‘There is nothing to be afraid of if I combine my mind control with his magic repulsive power.’
And with that power, he vowed to kill Kang Seung-hyun first.
‘To hinder me on the subject of lower magical power than Scarab… Such garbage is not even worth using as a host.’
Because he was a cheeky human being who interrupted himself at every turn.
‘Let’s kill them right away.’
It had to be killed at any cost.
Wow!
Koo Goo Goo!
The walls vibrated violently whenever Gordian moved at high speed. He reached the corner where Le Peny was hiding.
[The light of the full moon]
And, just like before, I tried to fire a huge sword.
Tadat!
It was then.
“Fuck now!”
Le Peny, who was hiding in a corner, jumped out and appeared.
“Your complexion is very pale, and you have scars on your arms. It’s like a bloody wound.’
He was holding a small vial of red liquid.
‘In addition, that bottle is not a potion bottle made by processing magic, but a regular glass bottle.’
Gordius looked at Le Peny in that brief moment and recalled the story of the two overheard earlier.
-We will use Le Peny’s blood.
– You want to use my blood on that bastard?
The two planned to attack Gordius using the blood of the magic repulsor.
“Eat this!”
Le Peny threw the bottle at Gordius.
Whoops!
‘The smell of blood wafting from the bottle. There’s nothing more to know. It is the blood of a magic resister.’
Gordius was convinced that the potion Le Peny threw was his blood.
‘If that’s the case, I can’t attack with a sword.’
If the bottle containing the blood of the magic resister was cut with a sword, a powerful magic spark would surely explode.
Dig!
Gordius released the created sword and summoned the flying scarabs around him. The swarm of scarabs became a living shield to protect Gordius.
‘The correct answer is to use a scarab to block it.’
At this time, if you use the [Superiority] of a rare monster to summon subordinates, a backflow of magic occurs along with skill cancellation.
‘They must have been aiming for that too.’
But Gordius wasn’t worried.
Once the individual has succeeded in mind control, it can be manipulated like its own limbs without using magical powers.
Not just a slave, but literally another body of Gordian.
‘Sorry, but this body is different from the pyramids.’
That’s why even if you manipulate another entity and touch the blood of a magic repulsor, the reverse flow of magic did not occur.
Buses!
Clink!
The crowd of scarabs blocked the glass bottles with their bodies.
Chow!
As the glass bottle was shattered, the blood inside it splattered everywhere, but there was no magic backflow, and not a single drop reached Gordius.
“It’s too bad.”
Buses’s!
Gordius drove away the bloody Scarab with an expressionless face. Just in case it doesn’t come into contact with your body.
“The plan I’ve been thinking of has failed.”
“…”
Le Peny just looked at Gordius without saying anything. He seemed to have something to say, but kept his mouth shut.
“I would have made a better choice.”
Gordius still looked down at Le Peny with an expressionless face.
‘This guy has resistance and antipathy to most skills because of his constitution. Quite annoying, but useful.’
So, in order to use Le Peny as her host and apply mind control, she had to use status abnormalities to drastically reduce her mental power.
The magical repulsion constitution only reduced the power of the skill, but it did not completely prevent the decrease in mental strength.
‘Let’s start with the [Sword of Delirium] first.’
The [Sword of Delirium] that I showed when I was playing Bill Seihan earlier was not for dealing with the Kamar Wizard.
It was a skill prepared with the intention of using Le Peny as a host.
“Your strength and body… I will take over.”
It was the moment when Gordius was about to activate his skill.
Papababak!
A red arrow that flew from behind pierced Gordius’ arm or shoulder.
When he hurriedly looked back, he said,
“Disappointed? Who do you like?”
Kang Seung-hyeon smiled and was aiming the crossbow.
“Right. Was this the real purpose?”
The bottle of blood is just a bait to attract attention!
What they were really aiming for was a surprise attack while their eyes were on Le Peny!
Gordius, who remembered this far, opened his mouth with a face that said it was not the same.
“But what does that mean?”
First of all, the arrow damage was not very high. Even if it was true, it was a ticklish level.
I don’t know if he touched his heart or brain, but the host Gordius is using now is Bill Seihan, Le Peny’s colleague.
“You insignificant things that cannot even inflict fatal wounds for fear of their host dying!”
Gordius laughed loudly at the two and tried to activate [Light of the Full Moon] once again.
“Ah, use a skill?”
Kang Seung-hyun, who saw that, said with a smile.
‘Wait…. Does that guy even have a wound on his arm?’
Only then did Gordius realize that not only Le Peny, but Kang Seung-hyun’s arm was also injured.
It was also a wound that seemed to have drawn blood.
‘These children. Are you plotting something?’
But it was too late.
Gordius could not stop activating his skills.
“bye.”
dismissal.
dismissal.
At that moment, sparks burst out from the red arrows embedded in his body.
Pajijijik!!!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
It started to explode with great light.
“Kuaaaaa!”
Amidst the loud explosions, Gordian’s screams of pain were heard.
“It sounds good.”
“It worked just fine.”
Kang Seung-hyun and Le Peny smiled and drank the stamina potion.
“What are you doing!”
Gordius tried to activate the skill once again.
Papabak!
Instead of answering, Kang Seung-hyun pulled the trigger and shot a red arrow into the guy’s body.
Pajijijik!
“I’m sorry!”
Powerful sparks erupted this time as well, causing explosions all over the body.
Gordius struggled in pain and screamed.
“What the hell is this?!”
“That arrow is no ordinary arrow.”
LePenny grinned and shouted.
“An arrow made of my blood!”
