Episode 86
“It’s fucking crazy until the end.”
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Damian narrowed his eyes as he looked at the bog jade floating in the air.
It was the red jewel of the strong wind that raged as if it were the eye of a hurricane.
Previously, if Amoeba King’s output of turpentine activated before death reached 100%, then the output of turbid jade triggered by Mingchen was over 100%.
[Notice: You have killed a user!]
[Notice: You have committed a PK!]
[Notice: Your alignment is reduced by -1!]
[Current alignment: -9999999999.]
[Notice: You have no more falling alignment !]
And with the message announcing Mingchen’s death, Damian could see that the turpentine held by his subordinates was also crumbled and sucked into the raging turpentine.
– Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
It was the same monsters’ cries that echoed in the highland air, despite the remnant energy of the ragged predator.
[Notice: Warning Warning!]
[Notice: The monsters of the plateau are flocking due to the riot of bog-jak!]
[Notice: Escape from the plateau before the monsters come!]
“The monsters are…”
“The monsters are flocking will come We have to get out of here.”
When the message announcing the outbreak of the monster came to mind, Damian looked back at the party and said.
It was so obvious that he didn’t even have to say it.
Cries of a different size from those of the monsters that plagued the 8th camp.
At first glance, the monsters’ high voice seemed to be approaching, and the party felt that they were even mistaken that the day of the twin moon had arrived.
‘At this level of numbers, they might be swept away before even fighting. It’s not a scale that an individual can deal with.’
flash!
Just like Giorno’s eyes glowed as he looked up over the mountains.
The number of monsters currently flocking to them must have been overwhelming enough to assume a fortress battle.
“Return to the fort. So that each person can use their means of transportation to the fullest. And…”
Clap!
After giving orders to the party, Giorno placed his index finger on the back of the broadsword’s nose and lowered his body.
It was a movement with the right foot forward and the left foot extended backwards.
A movement similar to a typical Nebenhut posture, except that the sword is leaded into a scabbard that looks like it will jump out at any moment, and that the head is lowered.
[Night crow]
[Full moon]
Perong!
Soon, a sound like a bomb exploded from the scabbard of the broadsword, and Giorno’s sword swung at an invisible speed, splitting the runaway jade in half.
It was a swordsmanship reminiscent of a full moon full of vertical circular sword waves spread around him.
“Hey!”
Kwakwagwagwang!
As the unique mana color of the Yekachev world accurately cut the space in half, the boron jade floating in the air exploded in all directions.
It was after the ominous bloody color was blown away with a gust of wind.
There was no way to know how far Mingchen’s runaway range reached.
The jade that was cracked by Giorno’s full moon seemed to have completely lost its ability to summon monsters.
Damian raised an eyebrow as he picked up one of the shavings of turpentine that flew at his feet.
[Notice: Acquired < Shards of Jasper >!]
[Notification: Obtained clues to the quest < Spirit of Mystery >!]
Like the voice of the system permeating his ears.
It was as if he could finally figure out where the warnings from Tessa Ring, which had been sending warnings to Damian, had come from.
[Shard of Jadeite]
Type: Other
Rating: Normal
Description: A fragment of an object containing the power of the Seven Deadly Sins, the seven evils of the beginning. It is made of very high strength material. It has the characteristics of stimulating the monster’s instincts. Due to its characteristic of constantly absorbing mana, the durability of objects is significantly lower than its strength, and the unknown energy does not settle properly, so it seems to easily threaten the user’s life.
“This is a mess.”
“Why is that, master?”
“just. It’s not that different from what I expected.”
As Moongchi climbed onto his shoulder and asked, Damian threw a piece of boron jade fragment into his inventory.
There was nothing more to see.
In the meantime, the back ship that gave amoebaking and jeungsansin-eop a jade and made them use monsters.
A tattered predator whose characteristics were too crude to be called a normal champion monster.
If the Ragged Eater is not a naturally occurring champion monster, but a creature created by someone else, it’s just a test subject.
If it’s the work of Aleister Crowley, who has an expertise in human body transmutation.
The traits of the Ragged Predator, which seemed to be a random mix of several traits, and the rampage of monsters weren’t all that strange either.
According to his words, it was a basis to be sure.
In the first place, due to the nature of AC, which limits information related to reality, it was not assumed that the Cross Dawn Society would be behind the adventurers.
The Cross Dawn Society approached Amoebaking and Mingchen so easily, as if they were mocking their thoughts, and handed them the boron jade.
“To do that… I have to live first, right?”
“Are you the owner?”
-Kee Ee Ee Ee — !!
So, on the other hand, Damian feels that the cries of the monsters echoing from all directions are getting closer.
I could instinctively sense that returning to the fort would not be as smooth as it was.
“Don’t fall behind. I will open the way.”
Woo woo woo!
Before long, mana like steam began to rise explosively over Giorno’s whole body.
* * *
“Haaaaaaaaa!”
Kwajik!
At the same time as a strong spirit, the epee was fired at the front and the side, and the monster’s head collapsed into a single point as if it had been hit by a mace.
It was the head of a Berthas ghoul whose limbs had been torn off and was about to transform.
Of course, it was to the point where I wondered if it would be meaningful to transform into the waves of monsters that came in like the ocean.
“Keeeeeeeee!!”
“Kyaaak!”
Crunchy! Dduduk!
Hye-eun witnessed the corpse of Berthas Ghoul she killed being trampled to death by other monsters, while witnessing that the gap between Giorno and herself was quickly filled with monsters.
“Stay still!!!”
“…?!”
That is, until a sharp shriek echoed from the rear.
[Sorceress]
[Reverse Gravity]
Phew!
As Hye-eun’s body, trying to avoid the monster’s attack, hardened as if it were under the petrification magic, the monsters rushing at her soared into the sky.
It was Chocozoa’s gravity reversal.
Because she had memorized it before, she was able to cast magic without having to sign a special chant.
With a surprisingly accurate calculation, Hye-eun vomited a spirit that reversed the space on both sides.
Soon after, Hye-eun opened her eyes to a sharp flash that brushed her side.
At last, I could feel that the back of the leader Giorno, who had gone ahead, came into my eyes again.
[Stalker]
[Grimtooth]
It was < Grimtooth >, a proprietary skill of < Stalker >, the Assassin class of Nowon Dandynam, and a magic that makes dozens of awls shoot up from the shadows on the floor.
“Run, run, run!”
“Oh okay!”
Nowon Dandynam’s Grimtooth spread out on both sides like a wave, and Hyeeun kicked the floor with mana.
If you delay even for an hour, you will miss it.
Meanwhile, Giorno clears the search route to the fortress with overwhelming inaction.
Even though he was trying to get rid of the monsters as much as possible without leaking into his rearguard.
Nevertheless, the monsters flocking from all sides were not a wave that a mere new gold-class adventurer could endure.
[Notice: The distance to Aldeon Fortress is about 991m left!]
[Notice: The distance to Aldeon Fortress is about 987m left!]
….
[Notice: The distance to Aldeon Fortress is about 981m left!]
[ Reminder: Be careful of quest failure in case of death!]
So Hye-eun confirmed that the distance to the fortress, which was slowly shrinking, was only about 1 kilometer.
I could feel that my will was gradually being broken by the endless waves of monsters.
“Gwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Kwajik!
At the same time, the monster that fell from the air and trampled down the Berthas Ghoul with blood clots.
It was because he was slamming his log-like forearm down at her with fervent force.
[Boomer]
A monster that appears in the extreme land of Berthas Plateau. It had a height of 2 meters and a large body weighing hundreds of kilograms. It is very vicious and has a habit of crushing and eating both humans and monsters.
Its arms, which are over 80cm thick, boast powerful enough destructive power to turn most of the monsters in the highlands into porridge with a single blow, and its calcareous skin is said to be as good as a rock as it has not only high defense power, but also decent elemental resistance. The name called by the Night Crows is ‘the annihilator’.
Race: Demon
Type: Normal
Level: 71
Special Features: This monster has a pattern of jumping several meters up and slamming down!
‘Die…!’
Shyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
As Boomer’s arms rushed towards him, Hye-eun’s eyes were colored with astonishment.
It was because its mass and power were overwhelming to avoid.
If the monsters you’ve dealt with in the past are just coffee, then Boomer, who’s slamming his arms right in front of you, is like an espresso on a different level.
‘I can’t stop this…!’
Woo woo woo woo!
And at the moment Hye-eun, who finished all the calculations, opened her eyes to Boomer and condensed her mana, a strange sign suddenly began to strike at her side like lightning.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
Fuck!
It was Damian’s side kick that was so hot that it sent her flying several meters back, thus nullifying Boomer’s attack.
“They say being ignorant is brave.”
“That work?”
As Damian blew away the prey in front of him, Boomer’s head naturally turned to the side.
It was because it happened so fast that he couldn’t understand what had happened either way.
With the exception of champion monsters like the Ragged Devourer, there would be no one who could stand up to him.
How dare any big liver think of stealing its prey?
Boomer, who had no doubt that his attack would hit, couldn’t help but be careful.
“What are you looking at, you bastard?”
“Keep it off!!!”
Fuck!
That is, until a sharp needle suddenly pierces his eyeball and a terrifying aura strikes him that can pierce the crown of his head at once.
“If you don’t stop, you will die—.”
“…!”
Shyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
And Damian’s Kurenai fell on Boomer’s head like a pair of fangs.
