Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 427
427Like ice (2)
Eli Baba (Black) Extreme Deal Mode.
In short, blackening mode is the most extreme among the various modes that can be activated with [Spiritualization]..
All resistance values 0.
Moreover, since you take damage from divine power, you cannot receive healing..
But instead.
Immune to all types of conditions, including bleeding, poisoning, stunning, paralysis, and rooting..
It has this ridiculous effect..
However, the random penalty remains as it is determined as a system effect rather than a status ailment.······.
It's not that important right now..
Because the core of this blackening mode is something else..
「All types of attacks receive Unavoidable Strike modifier.」
A blow that cannot be avoided.
[[Dungeon & Stone] A unique option that is only available in blackening mode..
Of course, as is the motto of this game that loves equivalent exchange, the cost is more than just the glass body..
「All resource consumption increases by 20 times.」
「Cooldown of all skills is increased by 5 times.」
Two lines of phrase that instantly turn a sane explorer into an asshole..
However, this does not apply to me currently..
Aren't you already half an asshole because of the random penalty anyway?.
If you have to pay attention, it's probably this part..
「Recoil comes to the character in proportion to the holding time..」
Recoil must be reduced as much as possible.
So, to put it simply, at this moment, time is more precious than gold..
‘Well then, let's do it quickly..’
As I take a step forward, Six quickly opens the gap like a fly..
Tadat.
It seems like they are wary of my changed appearance..
Are you saying you want to do it first before exploring??
If so, I'm thankful.
Whoa whoa-!
I swing the hammer, narrowing the increased distance..
That's because if you swing it in the air, it won't be considered an attack..
Even if the result of meaninglessly cutting through the air is the same, we have confirmed through previous experiments that only when there is a clear goal will the inevitability correction be applied..
fault.
As was the case throughout this battle, the woman avoids the hammer with minimal movement..
「Receives correction for Inevitable Strike.」
At the same time, the correction effect was activated..
Chewy profit-!
A space torn diagonally following the trajectory of a hammer..
“······!”
A strange look appears in the eyes of the woman who saw this..
Even if you don't know what this phenomenon is, you have raised your concentration to the limit so that you can deal with it at any time.…….
———!
The swinging hammer plunges into the darkness of the gap, and the sound of the weapon's impact stops..
Degurrrrr.
A woman's pupils roll, widening the angle of view as if searching for traces of a missing weapon..
Well, even if you do that, it’s no use..
“…!!”
The hammer that appears just a split second later transcends space and strikes Six's body..
The physical force that was first wielded is preserved intact..
Powok—!
A dull noise followed soon after..
Unfortunately, the taste wasn't that good..
That's because the thing that got stuck was the abdomen.…….
‘Why is this woman so hard??’
At first, I thought it was just an agility type, but it seems like a lot of stats were invested in defense as well..
Well, if you look at the expression on his face when he gets hit, it looks like it didn't hurt at all.…….
‘Tsk. If I had only been able to use [Swing], I would have been able to properly kill one of them.…….’
It is disappointing that the damage increase effect of the Demon Crusher only activates when blunt weapon skills are used..
but…….
‘If one time doesn’t work, one more time.’
It won't be too late to regret it after everything has failed.
Huh-!
I throw away my regrets and swing the hammer again..
Tadat.
Six opened the distance further than before..
It seems like the blow I received earlier was a warning.…….
Because this is not destroyed in that way..
Powok-!
A blow that transcends distance without fail.
‘It finally stuck in my head.’
This time, quite a bit of touch was delivered, but surprisingly, Six didn't even let out a small groan..
All I did was stumble a little..
Sigh.
Soon, Six slowly lifted his bowed neck and glared at me..
and……
“Hehe.”
He mechanically spit out the blood that was in his mouth and opened his mouth in a grave voice..
“I remembered.”
…huh?
“5Level monster, Flora’s special ability [Spirit Transformation]. This was the effect when the dark spirit was added to it..”
uh…….
‘Is this guy also memorizing the effects of essences??’
Maybe so..
First of all, they are agents trained with great care by the kingdom.?
“It was my first time seeing it in person, so I was a little late in understanding it.…….”
When the words reached that point.
I immediately kicked the ground and dashed forward..
“It will be different from now on.”
Unlike before, Six did not back down..
No, rather…….
Tadat-!
rushed towards me.
I was able to do it intuitively through that action..
That what I just said was not a lie.
and…….
‘Ha, I've only gotten two hits so far..’
From now on, the road to hell begins.
***
Huh-!
Strike the hammer according to the movement of the rushing Six..
Six didn't even avoid it..
I made a cool-headed decision based on the information I had..
‘If you don't dodge, you can decide where to hit..’
The first thing that hit was the hammer.
Powok-!
However, as soon as the hammer hit Six's shoulder,.
Puuk-!
The aura-coated dagger cuts through my forearm like tofu and gets stuck..
‘Well, this is why I was saving the dark baba mode.…….’
It's like receiving an equal blow, but it's clear which side suffers more damage..
As you can see just by looking at those brave eyes,.
“You're smarter than I thought. It was aimed at the neck..”
Damn it.
If I had cursed, it would have been considered a high compliment and the corners of my mouth would have gone up..
You're more agile than you think?
This is nothing short of the ultimate insult..
Throbbing.
Because my pain tolerance has changed to 0, I can feel the sharp pain even in my forearm where I was stabbed..
I decided to look at it as positively as possible..
I was hit by an auror with a cancer resistance of 0, but this is good. If the penetration area had not been on the forearm, especially on the skin side, the injury would have been much more serious..
Yeah, I mean…….
“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”
Even the tingling pain is used as fuel to exhale energy..
“tough guy.”
Because this game will end sooner than expected.
‘Once more.’
Strike the hammer again.
It was the same composition as before..
Six did not dodge this time and extended his dagger..
and…….
Powok-!
Suddenly.
Each blow is exchanged with the other..
“…….”
Six was the shoulder that was hit earlier..
‘Nimiral.’
In my case it was the hand holding the shield..
I tried to use the shield to pass the turn, but the aura-filled dagger didn't even pierce the shield; it pierced my palm..
Crash.
The shield that fell to the floor without strength seems to have been cut off by the strap that held it to the wrist..
Oh, not only the shield, but also the little and ring fingers..
but…….
‘Once more.’
Either way, I swing the hammer again..
However, this time the composition has changed slightly..
Six, who attacked without dodging, brought the two daggers he held in both hands side by side and blocked the hammer's trajectory..
but…….
Cheeeeeee profit-!
The hammer was corrected and sucked into the darkness just before it collided with the dagger..
And soon.
Powok-!
Ignoring space, he struck Six’s ankle..
Even though it was clear that the bone had suffered a significant impact due to the small amount of fat, Six looked unaffected..
“……Yeah, it doesn't work this way.?”
Ha, it looks like I've become a monster that is being targeted..
‘Once more.’
swing a hammer.
Powok-!
Hit one.
Puuk.
There is one more knife mark on the body..
once, twice, three times, four times…….
How many more attacks did we exchange?.
Finally I recognized Six.
‘This woman… Much stronger than I thought.’
Needless to say, his natural ability.
He can use Aura, and his sword skills are as sharp as Orculis' leader..
Powok-.
This woman wasn't even the ignorant type..
After only a few hand exchanges, the knowledge about blackening mode began to be put to use..
Puuk-.
Judgment is the same.
“I can't use this shoulder anymore..”
As if to prove this, Six throws the dagger he was holding in his left hand on the ground without hesitation..
I decided I couldn't use it anymore anyway..
After the fight started, this woman received most of my attacks with her left forearm and shoulder..
A cool-headed mind that focuses the damage on one place..
‘I got hit over ten times and lost one arm.…….’
Of course, compared to me, who has cuts and holes all over my body, I'm no better than a noble person.…….
Still, I don’t regret bringing out the blackening mode..
That's right too…….
‘If I had left it as is, it would have been a big problem..’
All you have to do is endure against a woman like this.?
Also, while I was losing stamina and this woman was maintaining her condition,?
It's clear that it has escalated into something uncontrollable..
So far, holding me has been beneficial to this woman, but if the reason for doing so disappears at any time, this woman's blade will be pointed at her colleagues..
Wow.
So I changed my mindset.
The original goal was to kill this woman as quickly as possible and support my colleagues, even if it meant taking damage.…….
‘At least… I have to deal with him here somehow..’
Okay, now that the goal is simplified, it becomes clearer..
Let's think about the rest later.
Like a barbarian warrior.
Powok-!
Let's focus more on this moment.
Someday, when that woman reveals even the slightest weakness.
So that I can run out and bite like a wild dog.
Puuk.
Forearms, skin, wrists, thighs, etc..
The stabbing, which was aimed at avoiding vital areas, digs deep into the lower abdomen..
“……!”
Wow, I think this is dangerous..
profit.
I forcefully catch my stumbling body with my lower body strength and quickly organize my thoughts..
‘How much longer can I hold on??’
No, there are exactly a few seconds left.?
I'm not sure, but I don't think it will be that long..
but…….
‘Not yet.’
Reduce impatience as much as possible.
Just wait a little longer and it will come.
The moment to take the long-awaited game.
Powok-!
Puuk-.
The battle continues without stopping..
No, actually, it was funny to even call it a workshop..
A series of moments where each party ignores defense and just attacks and attacks to kill the other..
“The paladin who died earlier.”
The woman who was busy chopping up my body without saying a word suddenly opened her mouth..
But what did you want to say?.
“Were you very close friends??”
I don't know why I'm curious about that.
but······.
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
I answered, swinging my weapon once more..
“no.”
The time we've known each other was too short to be close..
But one thing is certain.
“Then I don't understand. Why are you doing this??”
“Because I wasn't the one to die in a place like this..”
I don't know much about him..
All I have seen is only one of the many sides of him that were revealed in the labyrinth..
That's why it's even more disappointing.
What did it feel like to explore with Jun?.
I don't think it was bad.
Even though he usually gets along well, when his habits from his time as a Heretic Questioner came up, he must have looked somewhat fed up..
Although the unconditional support may be burdensome, at times it may have been more helpful than anyone else..
Whoa whoa-!
At a drinking party?
Are you a good drinker? There are some kids like that whose personality changes when they drink alcohol..
What type of guy was he?.
Huh-!
I do not know.
These guys took that opportunity away..
No, it's not just Jun, it's the other members as well..
Puuk-!
It wasn't a life that was in vain like this..
therefore······.
“Behel—laaaaaaa!!!”
Forcing a motionless arm to move.
To not let these guys take more from me.
Wow-!
Maintain balance by forcibly applying strength to the torn thigh muscles..
Hwiik.
As if determined to defeat me, the fierce aura ignores air resistance and flies towards my stomach..
But at the same time.
「The character's luck blocks damage..」
The moment I've been waiting for has finally arrived.
Tuk.
A dagger stopping in the air as if it was about to hit a transparent curtain..
‘Yes, it finally exploded..’
Gachabon’s special ability is [Probabilistic Retaliation].
Passive skills work regardless of whether the active skill is sealed or not..
「Reflects 15% of damage taken to enemies.」
A skeleton created on the left swings a dagger at Six..
It's not an ordinary dagger either..
An aura of the same color as Six's aura wields a blazing dagger..
Tadat.
In response, Six, who was attacking with full force, quickly adjusted his stance and retreated..
It was a scene I had seen several times before..
Even before turning on the blackening mode, [Stochastic Retaliation] continued to explode, and that woman, Six, evaded the counterattack with unlucky alacrity..
but…….
Grinning.
It's a positive sign for the first time in a long time..
‘I guess I didn't know that much about blackening mode.?’
If that were the case, I wouldn't have made such a split-second decision..
The blackening mode's inability to evade bonus clearly applies to the passive as well..
Just like this.
Chewy profit.
As soon as the summoned skeleton's dagger splits the air,.
A crack appears in the air and engulfs the dagger..
And soon.
Puuk-!
Transcends space and pierces Six’s body..
“Ugh.”
Indeed, for the first time in a long time, a groan came from that steel-like woman..
but…….
‘Nimiral.’
I wasn't satisfied.
‘Does that stick in your thigh?.’
If it had hit the neck, heart, or between the eyebrows, the game would have been over immediately..
I would be lying if I said I didn't regret it, but I gave up my regrets..
‘It's not like I didn't expect it to be like this from the beginning..’
Starting with Hans A, whom we met in the Crystal Cave, we have encountered numerous enemies..
and…….
‘Yeah, this is my last one.’
What led me to victory every time was Plan B..
So in that sense.
Just as I prepared.
Tadat.
It's time to bet.
Fuuuuut-!
He dashes forward and spits out the blood from his mouth onto Six's face..
There is no more [acidic fluid] from the corpse golem..
Still, it may block your view..
Whoa whoa-!
Sprinkling blood and swinging the hammer happened almost simultaneously..
A strike that exquisitely penetrates the viewing angle.
However, Six stuck out his shoulder as if he could see the trace..
It was the same shoulder that was already shaky from the harpoon..
You just pull the mulberry out with one arm..
Powok-!
hammer hits shoulder.
whistling-!
Meanwhile, the woman held out her dagger forward..
I didn't avoid.
Puuk-!
A dagger digging deep into the lower abdomen..
Sigh.
Ignoring the pain, I extend my arms forward as if waiting..
This is the arm that I normally wear as a shield, and the arm that was hanging limp and not being used after being hit earlier..
Six's eyes hardened..
“……!”
Oh, yeah, you didn't expect this either..
It's worth noting that I didn't use it until now..
Tuk.
As soon as my fingertips touched Six's neck,.
Wow-.
I grabbed his neck hard with my index finger, thumb, and middle finger..
Kwasik-!
I pressed my forehead against the top of the table, which seemed unfazed by this situation..
and…….
Kwaang-!
Instead of holding Six's body as it fell due to inertia, it was piled on top of it as if it were being crushed..
Puuk-!
My side felt like it was on fire..
It was a little absurd..
Even while I was falling down, I stuck the knife in my head.?
Huh-!
Strike the hammer briefly held in the mounted position..
Then something amazing happened.
‘her… It's crazy, really.’
Even when his upper body was restrained, he avoided the hammer by moving only his neck using his reflexes.…….
It was surprising, but not a significant action..
Just because it's close range doesn't mean there's no correction for evasion..
Kwasik-!
The hammer struck at the head penetrates the air and crushes Six's feet..
Puuk-!
In return, one more stab wound was added to my side..
For a moment, I felt dizzy, as if all strength was leaving my body..
But the more I tried, the stronger I struck..
Kwasik-!
This time the hitting area was pretty good..
The hammer must have hit her wrist just right, or the dagger that the woman was holding tightly at any moment bounced and flew through the sky before falling to the ground..
‘Okay, so now there are no weapons..’
Letting go of worrying about counterattacking, I hit the hammer again..
Kwasik-! Kwasik-! Kwasik-!
Six used a strange movement to protect his head by twisting his neck three times, but the fourth time was different..
Well, this time it went right into the top of my head..
Kwasik-!
A strong shock is sent to the brain and the body stiffens as if having a seizure..
But I didn't stop and kept hitting the hammer..
The impossible-to-evade correction no longer fires..
It seems like this monster-like woman couldn't show the trick of dodging by just moving her neck while still suffering from a concussion..
Kwasik, Kwasik, Kwasik-!
Then hit his head with the hammer three more times..
‘Once more.’
When I lifted the hammer in preparation for the fourth blow..
Six's eyes were visible through his face covered in blood and crushed flesh and bones..
It was a bit of a strange experience.
I've split the heads of countless enemies, but there's never been anything like this..
“…….”
Calm eyes that never look like someone in trouble.
She looked up at me with those eyes and said.
“…lost.”
Huh, look how cool it is.?
She didn't look like a woman who was going to beg for her life, but I didn't expect it to be this bad..
Well, it doesn't matter either way.
“You, ah... Raph. Donia······.”
I hit the hammer with all my might.
Kwasik-!
With an eerie hitting sound, Six's body below stopped..
“Heo-eok, heo-eok, heo-eok….”
The breathing is so rapid that it reaches the tip of my chin..
‘really… Is he dead??’
I can't feel it at all.
It was that strong of an enemy..
But I can't rest like this forever.
Sigh.
I was catching my breath in a daze and slowly stood up..
and…….
“Er… Well, now that’s it, [Spiritualization]—.”
Hurry and release it.
The moment I was about to say that.
[mister—!!!!]
As if I had symptoms of orthostatic hypotension, my vision turns white and my body sways..
‘Holy shit….’
I need to wake up right away.
There are still a lot of guys to kill..
Slurp.
my eyes close.
