Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 272
272Fire Defense (2)
The eastern coast with reefs here and there.
A place where we were washed away by rough waves and our ship was destroyed..
“Arrived.”
The sandy beach, already half filled with water, was full of monsters..
6The layer's representative marine monsters, the Ranemut warrior and shaman..
A conch horn that spews venom from a distance..
Garbel, which has the unique characteristic of multiplying up to three times when killed, etc..
“Bjorn, I will help too..”
Einar took a step forward, expressing concern as the scale reached a hundred..
Well, you just have to keep an eye on him..
“done.”
“what? but…….”
But what but.
Oh, now that I think about it, I've never shown this to him in front of him after drinking this essence..
“Don't worry. This is enough for me alone.”
I held the mace and posed like a batter holding a baseball bat..
and…….
“Erwen.”
“Okay, what should we do this time??”
“wind.”
Elemental Barbarian (Wind) mode is taken out..
「Erwen Fornacci di Tercia casted [Spiritualization].」
The shape of a sharp wind that began to swirl around my skin, wrapping around my body..
「The wind spirit resides in the character's body..」
「All damage is given an evasion modifier.」
「Magic damage received is doubled.」
「Strong bonus to piercing and cutting actions.」
「Agility level increases significantly…….」
The effect of this mode is simple.
Movement becomes faster and allows you to perform the role of an evasion tank. If you are a dealer and not a tank, your DPS will go up significantly..
Oh, of course, there are other important things..
「All attack ranges tripled.」
This is the biggest feature of Eli Baba (wind) mode..
When you take out this mode, normal attacks change to splash damage. To put it simply, even a blunt weapon warrior like me can deal wide area damage..
“Geez-!”
Perhaps sensing an unusual force, the monsters around me began to gather energy and flock towards me..
However, I maintained my posture and waited for the right moment..
There's no need to swing twice?
just once.
Getting it right once is enough.
‘transcendence.’
When I decided that I had gathered enough, I immediately used [Transcendence]..
and…….
「The character casted [Swing].」
Like a skilled swordsman drawing and swinging a sword, he swung his mace horizontally with great precision..
Whiiiiiiiit-!
At the same time, the sound of the wind tearing is heard..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
The mace he was holding becomes longer like a female baton and increases in size proportionally..
Effect of Transcendent Swing.
「Hit range increases by 3 times.」
This is why most characters in Dungeon & Stone become capable of more ridiculous play as the latter part progresses..
Most of these are multiplication operations..
Kwakwakwakwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Wow, the sound is refreshing..
I soon finished [swinging] and checked my surroundings with satisfaction..
‘Yeah, this is it.’
There were no living monsters.
***
“Bjorn! What did you do just now? teach me too!!”
“You can ask Erwen to do it for you later too..”
“If I have Erwen, can I do it too?!”
“Yeah, similarly.”
I gave a brief answer to Einar, who was impressed with my new linkage device, and then checked the sea side..
Most of the mobs on the coast have been eliminated with one cool blow..
“Man, waves! The waves are crashing in!”
After waiting for a while on the empty shore, the waves rose high like a tsunami..
「The first fury of the sea has begun.」
Effect that occurs when the mid-boss of the first wave appears.
“Siren! This is the Siren Queen.!”
Goddess Ersina shouted as she watched the monster moving on the waves as if surfing..
6As an explorer who has been active on this level for a long time, he seems to have known about this monster..
“4Why are there such monsters on this island?…….”
Why why?.
I came out because one of you turned on the event..
“Everyone come behind me. Erwen, get ready to fight.”
“yes.”
“I am? I just watch again?”
“for now. I'll call you if I need you, so just wait..”
“i get it!”
After briefly adjusting the formation one more time, the Siren Queen finally arrived in front of us..
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!”
The guy stabs the trident in his hand while spitting out sounds that don't match his pretty face..
Kwaang-!
As a level 4 monster, even the basic attacks were quite heavy..
Well, there might be a different reason why he became level 4..
「The Siren Queen casted [Song of the Sea].」
「The character's abilities decrease.」
Aura that reduces abilities in proportion to exposure time.
「The Siren Queen casted [Vortex].」
Also, every time he hits a basic hit, he emits a vortex in all directions that steals a certain amount of MP when hit..
and…….
「The Siren Queen casted [Proof of Loyalty].」
Whenever cooldown occurs, Siren, a level 5 monster, is periodically summoned..
And not just one or two, but fifteen..
‘A typical debuff shaman type boss monster..’
Even if you think about cancer, it is not an easy monster..
If the place where we met is not right here.
“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”
The Siren Queen's difficulty lies in quantity..
Usually there are hundreds of sirens guarding the area..
However, when he just arrived on this island, he was alone..
Of course, it has the property of multiplying on its own if left alone.…….
‘Why did I put everything aside and come here?.’
I gave up looking for a friend and came here to kill him before he evolves into a raid boss..
“I will help too, so give me a weapon! You alone can't handle level 4 monsters.!”
Nebarce suggested something like that, but I just ignored it..
And the same goes for Einar..
“What are you saying, Bjorn is a great warrior?!”
“No, not only is it great, but it is a monster that can be defeated by two or three people.—”
“Bjorn, can I blow this guy’s mouth??”
“If you make a fuss one more time.”
“i get it!”
“…….”
Nevarche soon shut his mouth, perhaps because of Einar's threat. Thanks to you, I didn't worry about what happened and just focused on the battle..
Shinggwan, synonymous with healing and blessings.
elemental archer.
Tank Barbarian.
In fact, it was like fighting a battle with these three, but the boss battle went on easily..
After all, they have everything from dealers to tankers to healers.?
「Rairin Ersina casted [Blessing of the Sun].」
「5Debuffs below the level are canceled, and additional abilities are gained accordingly..」
Ability score reductions are canceled by the priest at regular intervals..
Hwiii profit-!
It's a [vortex] that takes away MP when hit. Just avoid it with control..
‘It's really comfortable because your agility level goes up..’
There is no reason for the summoning pattern to be too difficult..
[I was dealing with the 10 or more Erwens circling around me in [Spiritualization] state before they even piled up..
“Behel—laaaaa!!”
In fact, because my threat level was so high, there was no incident where they ignored me and rushed to the rear..
thus…….
Kwasik! Kwasik! Kwasik!
I'm a tank and all I have to do is possess the dealer and beat the queen..
“Keekssssssssssssssssss.-!”
It was like a 20 minute battle..
「Killed the Siren Queen EXP +6.」
The Siren Queen, who had been hit with nearly 30 blows on the top of her head, finally turned into light and disappeared..
There was no essence that I secretly expected..
‘If the summoner had appeared, it could have been sold at a very high price. Oh, there are no wizards anyway, so that’s it.?’
I put down my mace with regret..
Then, I moved to where the group was with Erwen, who had canceled [Spirit Transformation]..
“……4I never thought the three of us could really catch a level monster..”
Goddess Ersina still had an expression that seemed somewhat unrealistic..
And this is the same with Nebarce.
“I'm sure he said he was a level 5 explorer.…….”
Nebarce, who was speechless, gave me a strange look..
“Yes, you were hiding your skills?…….”
What can I say, this guy again.
I laughed as soon as I heard it, but I didn't bother to explain it..
‘That's funny. It's just that the grading standards here are very lax..’
This is one of the things I felt keenly after the game became a reality. The explorer level is really just a minimum standard here..
The guild only grades the essence by looking at the average grade, and does not consider the synergy of those essences..
For example, this Nebarce guy is like that..
‘He was level 4.’
This guy had a level 4 explorer card..
Since he is from Noark, this may not be his true status badge, but he must have done it himself to get level 4..
But even so, it applied to me within 10 seconds..
There is also the point that my training method is strong in interpersonal combat, especially against long-distance classes.…….
‘Putting everything aside, I'm just weak.’
In fact, most of the explorers here were like that..
Should I say that even though the grade is high, it does not perform as well as it should??
‘Looking back, the dragon slayer felt this way too..’
I've been exploring for a long time, so my level is high, and I've consumed a lot of essence, but that's all..
There is no root in integer combinations.
To be honest, by my standards, it's not enough to say he's a mess..
‘This is exactly what it felt like to see kids cursing and quitting the game after a few days..’
This game was more powerful than having five high-level skills, but combining even low-level skills to create synergy..
[Gigantization] The basis of this game was to select one core skill and evolve it in various ways to cheat..
‘The only group that was the strongest was the Corpse Collector..’
That was when I was organizing my thoughts..
“Hey, Mr. Yandel.!!”
huh?
‘No, wait a minute, this voice…….’
I quickly turned my head in the direction from which I heard the sound..
“Raven! Abman!!”
“Patsran, you are safe.!”
Four men and women appeared in the forest..
Huh, is it only Missha left now?.
***
“Yandel, Erwen, Einar. I'm glad everyone is safe.”
“Urakburak! I'm glad you're safe too.!!”
I quickly ran to the happy face and shared the memories of our reunion for a moment..
We quickly shared information with each other..
“What happened??”
“Oh, that's it?”
What happened to Raven was simple..
First, we started with Mr. Bear, and before long, we encountered Partran and his fellow wizards and moved to the center of the island together.?
After arriving, he seemed to have turned in this direction after seeing the note I left in the center that said 'going east'..
“But why did you arrive so late? I was waiting there for over 2 hours..”
“sorry. I got lost too much to get there.…….”
The reason for being late was really absurd..
There were four people gathered, but no one could find the way..
‘Well, the two wizards don't seem to know how to do anything other than use a sword.…….’
There is nothing to say, Mr. Bear..
Yeah, it's no wonder that this member can't find his way..
“however… What about Misha??”
“Misha is still there.”
“yes? Not yet…….”
“Don't worry too much. Haven't you guys just met each other now? I'm sure he's safe somewhere on the island..”
I tried to shake off my worries and looked away..
Just like here, Pachran, who had finished his relationship with his colleague Ersina, was approaching me..
“I heard what happened to Ersina so far..”
“heard……?”
“Oh, no, I heard… … . You protected me the whole time, right? Thank you.”
“In difficult times, we should help each other. By the way, blonde… … . No, did you even hear about the identity of that drow??”
“Ah, if that’s the case… … I heard it. It's an incredible story to say that Drous was from Noark. So, I guess I can check a few things myself.?”
Soon, Pachran politely asked if he could talk to the Nebarche I caught, and I readily agreed..
“Use it well and give it back.”
“Cancer, burn cleanly.”
Okay, then this part is done..
I overheard the conversation between Pachran and Nebarche and approached Raven..
And quietly whispered.
“Raven, there's an answer, just listen..”
“……?”
“Among them, there is one who was in cahoots with the Noark guys..”
He is the one who betrayed the team and told Amelia that they would come to this island today..
Only Amelia knows who that guy is.?
“I don't think they'll try to stab you in the back in this situation, but just be aware. If you find anything strange, let me know right away..”
After I finished speaking, Raven nodded with a stern expression..
Well, now the information sharing is over..
“There, wizard. what is your name?”
I went to the wizard who was resting on the floor, probably tired, and asked him his name. I figured if I talked to him, I might be able to find something suspicious..
Uh, yeah, I'm sure that was the case.…….
“Ah, nice to meet you. It's called Aulok..”
I froze in shock as I saw the wizard smiling kindly and extending his hand..
Goddess Ersina, Male Swordsman Partsran,
And even the female archer I haven’t met yet..
Of the many suspects, no one has really figured out who the traitor is.…….
For some reason, my confidence was soaring..
“Hans Aulog. Please feel free to call me Hans..”
Gotcha, you guy..
