I see emperor stats-Chapter 56
Seongcheol Imoogi
For several days, Julius and Nuada concocted a plan to hunt down the ruler of Mt. Awl.
“First of all, the route to move is a problem. I heard that this guy catches any creature that comes around him like a ghost.”
Nuada also agrees.
“You must have done quite a bit of research on him, right? That's right, from what I've measured while walking around the mountains, if you take about 500 steps at a warrior's pace, you'll notice it like a ghost and run rampant, so surprise attacks are almost useless.”
'Information by help is sure'
Julius searched the help for information about the spirit number Nuada told him about and was finally able to find the corresponding spirit number.
This spirit beast's size and ferocity were also a problem, but his sharp senses were the most problematic. If she were herself, she would be able to get closer somehow by hiding her presence, but Nuada is difficult to approach due to the range of attacks.
But the conclusion comes out surprisingly fresh. Nuada came up with a solution first.
“I know a way to get him a blow and go undetected.”
“… … ?”
Julius asked with a slightly questionable expression.
“It seems that you have prepared quite a bit too. Did you have such a deep grudge against him?”
“Well, let's leave it like that. I will catch him and tell you the details.”
'I guess there's a twist or something?'
With those words, Julius was convinced that there was something other than a simple threat between Nuada and the spirit beast's habitat.
'Well, he said he would let you know if you catch him, so you don't have to ask first'
So the plan was made steadily, and the day of execution finally came.
It was only the two of them, Julius and Nuada, who headed for Songgossan.
'At this level, ordinary articles are of little help. It'd be better to go alone to reduce the sacrifice.'
According to what Julius found out through the help, this silver snake, said to be the ruler of Mt. Awl, was classified as an S-class spiritual beast according to the system.
When I looked for records of spirits of a similar grade going wild, there were many cases where they caused damage almost at the level of a natural disaster.
He even left Beatrice behind.
“I acknowledge your enthusiasm for Rize training, but I can’t help it.”
"All right."
She had a sad expression on her face, but she couldn't help it because he spoke so sternly. In addition, Julius had other concerns.
'It should be able to be treated without major injuries.'
If you are injured, your trip to the capital will be delayed. Perhaps the grand duke, who saw his achievements, was not sitting idle. He needs to kill Yeongsoo as soon as possible and return with information about the Dite Lode.
Nuada's rough voice echoes in Julius' ears as he walks while thinking about the future.
“That place is Mt. Songgos.”
Three pointed peaks! It completely matches the memory of the previous life.
Julius starts to get nervous in earnest. If even one of these plans goes awry, you may have to prepare for a long-term battle.
“Then, let’s go ahead with the plan without any changes, Nuada, you should aim for the place I told you about through that road.”
“Okay.”
After giving a short answer, Nuada runs to the back road of Mt. Songgos that only she knows.
Julius plans to break through through the front, not the back road. His body, which had hidden its presence by replying back, sprinted dozens of meters at once, shortening the distance.
And finally!
'found.'
He found a huge cavity in the middle of Songgo Mountain. I haven't seen him yet, but I can guess how powerful he is just from the signs that come out of the entrance.
seuseuk
Julius makes the most of his rebuttal and carefully enters the common entrance.
“Shhhhhh”
'As expected, the information in the help is the same'
[Help - View information about Seongcheol Imoogi.]
[Sungcheol Imoogi - If a snake stays in an area full of force for a long time, it absorbs ores weakly impregnated with force and sheds itself as a being with scales that are stronger than steel.]
The huge snake with a silvery body seemed to exceed several tens of meters in length. Even the coiled figure looks like a small hill.
Overall, it was just a huge silver snake, but what was unusual was the bones that looked like feathers around the snake's neck.
Even at the tip of the coiled tail, you can see the bones protruding in a fan shape.
'Then shall we begin?'
Finally, it was time for Nuada to arrive.
“Hey profit”
Seongcheol's serpentine senses were sharp enough, but it seems that he couldn't detect enough to see through the rebuttal. Perhaps he felt the presence, only his eyes widened.
'The first blow is the most important.'
'Skill activation, overheat'
[Skill Overheat is activated. Depending on the skill effect, the rank of the Force rises from S+ to SS+.]
Julius prepared the biggest blow he could. He activates Overheat and instantly explodes all his power with a blast.
And the weak spot at the tip of the Imoogi's tail is where his sword strikes are headed!
[Help - There are a total of two places that Seongcheol Imoogi cannot protect with its scales. One of them... … .]
'It's the tip of the tail!'
The Seongcheol Imoogi uses the tip of its tail to gradually absorb the weak force emitted by the ore and change it into a strong hide that it can shed itself from. Therefore, areas that are difficult to sufficiently protect with scales!
Shehehehehehe!
The terrible scream of the Imoogi shakes the cavity. Julius' blow tore off the tip of the tail and ripped open the inside.
There this is not the end.
“This is the end of the boring hide and seek with you!”
While suffering from pain, there is a shadow that falls like a shot from a hole at the top of the joint.
It was Nuada.
He hit the Imoogi's head accurately. Among the places covered with scales, he aimed for the weakest place.
Wow!
The scales on the top of his head were crushed, and a shock that shook his brain was transmitted.
No matter how powerful a spiritual beast is, there is no way that it will be fine after allowing two superhumans to do their best two times.
The Imoogi rolls around in the cavity because of the intense pain it feels for the first time in its life.
“Shueek!”
But a spirit is a spirit.
The Imoogi, living for hundreds of years, is worthy of the name he has accumulated wisdom, and prepares for a counterattack while controlling his pain.
Whirliririk!
Tens of meters in length! The body of the Imoogi, which surpasses even a moderately large tree only in the circumference of the body, is itself a weapon.
After twisting the coiled body once, it shoots at Nuada and Julius like a whip.
Kwak!
The heavy sound of the hard body covered in scales shaking the cavity.
A torso headbutt powerful enough to pulverize a large rock pillar in the cavity with one blow!
However, it seems that the speed was not enough to catch a superhuman level drone.
Poof!
Julius and Nuada each quickly dodged the body of the serpent rising into the air.
But that was what this cunning spirit creature was aiming for.
“Kiyiying!”
The tip of the iron serpent's tail and the bony feathers on its neck began to tremble.
The trembling turns into a creepy sound of scratching metal and pierces your ears. And then the shockwave that explodes!
Whoops!
Vibrating the bony feathers attached to the neck and tail to create shock waves is the secret weapon of this Seongcheol Imoogi.
The accompanying creepy sound also cuts into the eardrum, preventing the prey from easily escaping.
“Hey?”
The Imoogi carefully watched the cavity where the dust was blowing in the aftermath of the explosion.
A normal opponent would have been shattered with a single shock wave, but this time it didn't look easy.
seuseuk
As expected by the Imoogi, this time the enemy was alive. The identity of the shadow leaping out of the dust at an amazing speed was Nuada.
“Hey profit”
“Kiyiying!”
However, this time, Nuada's charge was unable to pierce the Imoogi's shock wave. It is not a spiritual creature that reigns as the ruler of this region for hundreds of years for nothing.
A shockwave by vibration that can simultaneously attack and defend the hard body, which is difficult to injure unless it is a superhuman-level unmanned.
With these two things combined, Seongcheol's Imoogi became a difficult opponent that even two supermen could not easily guarantee victory.
'You damn snake!'
Nuada also prepared in advance, so the shock is not great. I was knocked out for a moment by the shockwave, but I got back up and took my stance.
The Imoogi was not vigilant at all and was watching Julius, who was still looking for his gap.
“Hey profit”
Julius' presence was too secretive to catch, but the Imoogi was confident that he wouldn't be easily defeated if he wasn't vigilant.
Sussuk!
Finally, as if he couldn't wait any longer, he caught sight of Julius shooting at him!
Kiyiying!
As if waiting, the Imoogi sent out a shock wave relentlessly in the direction where it sensed Julius's presence.
“Shhh?”
However, the Imoogi was momentarily taken aback. It was because even though the Imoogi was constantly vibrating its bony feathers, the shockwaves bounced around the rushing Julius' body.
'As expected!'
Julius inserted his sword between the vibrating bone plates.
[The second place not protected by the scales of the Seongcheol Imoogi is the back of its neck, which is exposed during bone vibrating.]
Since this part was the neck connected to the head, it is the part where various important organs of the Imoogi are concentrated.
However, since it was an organ that generated shock waves, it was not a major weakness, but in the case of Julius, the story is different.
He used Distortion to overheat, dispersing the shock wave and piercing it through, then stabbed his sword into the weak spot.
Wow!
Julius' sword rags the inside of the Imoogi's neck. No matter how old Youngsoo was, there was no way he could endure this level of scarring.
Perong!
The hunt ended with Nuada's fist smashing the Imoogi's head, which once again struggled in pain.
Even though they were aware of Seongcheol's Imoogi's shockwave from the beginning, the reason why they allowed the attack was to aim for this momentary gap.
It was a bland hunt compared to Yeongsu's level, but it was a quick decision because there were two superhuman-level unmanned people on the continent, and even a plan to target their weakness was meticulously planned.
“Huh, your defensive skills are really amazing. Is this a skill I can learn?”
Nuada asks if he was jealous that Julius was able to pierce the Imoogi's shockwave alone.
“Unfortunately, this is a skill that can only be acquired by training in my own way from the beginning, so I’m sorry.”
Even if he wanted to teach it, he couldn't use it without a core. Nuada nodded as if regretting it.
“I know from experience that learning other people's skills is not easy.”
“Someone else’s technology?”
Julius put on a puzzled expression.
“Does that sound like you were taught a skill by someone?”
“Exactly.”
Nuada nodded with a nonsensical expression.
“I was going to tell you when I caught this guy. Follow me if you're curious about that. I will guide you to my training place.”
Then, at first, he touched the wall of the common room and began to climb slowly.
'Does Nuada have another teacher?'
Such words are unheard of even in a previous life. Even when Julius rolled his stretched head, he couldn't figure out what this meant.
After Nuada climbs the wall for a while, he sees a small hole in the wall.
It was clear that Nuada had jumped out of this hole and carried out a surprise attack.
“There is a hole outside this cave that you can enter separately. Ever since I was little, I practiced going in and out of this place avoiding him!”
“… … !”
Coming out of the hole, what Julius could see before his eyes was a small cave. And in the center, there are piles of human bones.
And in front of the pile of bones lay a small, faded booklet.
'This?'
