Episode 34 Warrior (2)
“Bjorn.”
The moment Einar called my name.
The sun, hidden behind red clouds, completely crossed the top line. And at the same time, a man with pale skin appears under the red moonlight.
“It’s strange, so strange…”
He looked around the ruined city and stopped looking at us.
“When I see you, I can’t stand it at all because I have the will to kill. Do you guys know the reason?”
It’s the reason. Well…
I don’t know.
I don’t even want to know
I answered skillfully.
“I might remember it if I give it some time to think about it.”
Even 1 minute is good, so I decided to buy time.
However, at the same time as my answer, his eyes shone.
“For that reason… it’s a desire that’s too hard to bear.
To be honest, it was a bit awkward.
I didn’t know that a vampire bastard would do something like that.
“Kuhuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
The vampire guy, who had been tearing things apart in front of a lot of people as if he had been cheered on, suddenly became serious…
“Kyaaaaaaa!”
It let out a roar like an alien creature.
Chaeeng-!
The nail, the main weapon of the vampire, has already come out long with a sharp sound.
At some point, only madness remains in his eyes, creating a red glow.
‘This is like a game again.’
Come to think of it, it was like that in the game too.
No matter how intelligent you are, a proper conversation is just exchanging a few words like an intro.
“I’m not used to peering like this.”
The level 5 monster’s intent to kill was enough to make my flesh feel numb, but to my surprise, the dwarf was fine.
“Everyone back down!”
I was also a little amazed.
He only looked pathetic during the corpse golem, but are you still a third-year explorer?
As soon as the new type of vampire disappears, the dwarf steps forward and raises the buckler.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
A gust of dust blows around with a roar.
Its power was palpable even a few steps back, but…
“Hahaha! It’s heavy as expected!”
The dwarf did not retreat a single step.
It wasn’t that his stats overpowered those of vampires…….
It was all thanks to the help of Essence.
?Hikuro Murad cast [Balance Weight].?
The ability of the 7th grade monster, ‘Iantro’.
A ‘knockback immunity’ skill that prevents you from falling or being pushed as long as your feet are on the ground.
An additional option is shock absorption.
“Tarzin, stay away!”
As soon as the battle started, I gave an order.
But no answer comes.
Looking out of the corner of my eye, I saw that the carrier was already far away holding the wizard.
You did a good job, so why are you offended?
I shouted, deciding to think about the feelings I felt now later.
“Einar!”
“I’ll take the right side!”
We worked together so hard that you can tell what you want with just your eyes.
I gave a brief nod, and after dotting the left side of the vampire, I charged at the same time as Einar.
“Kyaaaak!”
Vampires who step back to see if their battle-related intelligence remains.
At the same time, the half crumpled dwarf’s buckler is restored to its original state as if going backwards in time.
The buckler didn’t have that kind of function…
?Hikurod Murad cast [Emergency Restoration].?
It was the living armor’s ability.
A useful skill that not only saves equipment costs, but also greatly increases its performance when equipped with magic tools later.
The dwarf who finished the repair in an instant shouted.
“I’ll take over the front, so you guys help me from the side!”
There was no disagreement.
At least he’s a dwarf, so he’ll have to hold out for a few seconds. To be honest, I’m the least helpful here.
Einar ate even the essence this time, but I have nothing except for the wise ‘immortal imprint’.
Well, it might help with the meat shield thing.
“Kyaaaaaagh!”
At that moment, the body of the vampire watching us from afar split into hundreds of crows.
Flock of crows flapping their wings and flying towards us at high speed.
“Get as far away as possible!”
Soon, the crows flying towards us exploded, banging their heads on the ground.
Kwak Kwa Kwak! bang! Kwak!
The power of the explosion itself was not great.
However, it was not enough to avoid the blood spilling in all directions.
‘Shit.’
Of course, it’s not like the corpse golem’s blood is mixed with an acidic substance, but…
Considering the link behind it, this is more troublesome.
“Bjorn! What the hell is this!”
Red tattoos were engraved on our blood-soaked foreheads, and then the bright light scattered.
“The character has been designated as a sacrifice.”
“The physical abilities of the Vampire Duke Cambormire temporarily increase as much as the number of sacrifices located within a 100m radius.” For some reason,
I gritted my teeth, ignoring the game log that popped into my head.
The crow popped open and the figure of the vampire was slowly regenerating between the blood pooled on the floor.
Now that he has received the buff, it will be more difficult to deal with in the future.
‘I wonder if three minutes have passed?’
It’s a situation that has a long way to go before the preparations are ready.
Will I be able to hold out until then?
I shook my head.
There is no point in worrying about whether or not to do it.
“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”
have to endure
With an evil barbarian spirit.
***
Buff skill ‘Sacrific Imprint’.
‘Eternal’ whose regenerative power greatly increases in proportion to the lost physical strength.
‘Master of Blood’ that absorbs part of the target’s abilities when directly vampiric.
Each of the vampire’s three active skills shows tremendous majesty in hand-to-hand combat.
The problem is that this isn’t everything.
Apart from this, this insatiable bastard also uses various black magic.
“Another crow flies in Bjorn!”
Turning into a crow, exploding, turning into smoke, dodging the sword, and summoning monsters using the scattered blood.
The vampire cub personally demonstrated the fraudulent specs of a high-ranking monster.
‘Because of this, everyone can’t even go to the 6th floor and play the game.’
Realizing the insane difficulty of [Dungeon and Stone], I raised my shield.
The shield had already been torn and dug by nails, and was in a state of almost scrap metal… but it
would be better than nothing.
Knock-!
I used the recoil to bounce back and absorb the impact as much as possible.
strength speed skill.
A skill that I learned naturally while fighting against an overwhelming enemy in every way.
[Please hold on for 5 more minutes!]
Then Raven’s voice rang in my head.
I wonder if the time would have been shortened a bit if I had saved the magical energy to send the whispers, but…
Still, hearing the hopeful news seemed to cheer me up a little—
“Hikurod has been attacked!”
—A creeping horn.
The dwarf who had marked the vampire closely, showing the skill of a 3rd year explorer, collapsed.
Although Einar, who was nearby, rushed in and stopped the vampire from sucking blood on the dwarf…
?Hikurod Murad has fallen into a state of [unable to fight].?
In an instant, the tide turned.
Me and Einar are already in a state of ruin.
It was close to impossible for the two of them to stop it without the dwarf who took up more than 50% of the battle.
‘Then I’d rather…’
I made a quick decision.
“Einar! Take Murad and get out of the way!”
“But…”
“I will stop this guy!”
“Oh I see!”
The moment Einar slung Murad over his shoulder, he dashed forward and brandished his mace.
Fuck!
An effective hit after a long time.
“Ah!!”
My brain throbs with the recoil from a successful attack.
It’s all because this crazy bastard is a top mutant.
“The vampire duke Cambormire cast [Pain Sharing].”
The guy even fully recovered from his injuries just by stepping back and taking a breath.
Damn I’m still in pain.
What kind of dog like this dog?
“Kyaaaaaaagh!”
Still, aggro was attracted to me as I wanted.
As a matter of habit, I checked again to see if the item I had hidden in my boots was in good condition.
The item name is ‘Tears of the Goddess’.
Simply put, it is a sacred object.
Although it is disposable, it can be used for treatment purposes and can also be used for attack purposes only against evil monsters.
‘…Should I use this right now?’
Of course, writing itself is not a waste.
No matter how ‘special grade’ is an item with efficacy that needs to be attached, it is a special item that can only be used in ‘Blood Fortress’ anyway.
If you use it on a dwarf, your power will be restored immediately, and if you use it on a vampire, you will be able to inflict considerable damage.
But…
‘No.’
I’m done with pointless worries.
What’s the reason you’ve been holding out until now?
Because one attack is enough.
No, if it’s more than that, it works as a minus for us.
You only have one chance.
You have to pour everything into that moment.
That was the only way for the five of us to hunt down a level 5 monster.
Click.
I took a bottle of potion from my waist and opened it.
And the moment I poured the potion into my mouth while watching the vampires running towards me.
Chiyiyi profit!
As countless minor injuries accumulated during battle are healed, the pain surges like a tidal wave.
I feel like my hands are losing strength and I want to collapse at any moment. As expected, it was close to impossible to eat potions and fight… but
‘it doesn’t matter.’
Because what I’m trying to do now isn’t like a battle.
Fu-wook!
Soon, the vampire’s nails are driven into the abdomen.
It’s like this level of plate armor, but it’s very deep like mana.
“……!”
The nerves that felt the threat of life frantically transmit pain signals to the brain.
My head turned to blank paper as if it was overloaded.
‘Sir, if I knew this was going to happen, I’d just eat the corpse golem essence.’
Leaving behind her belated regret, she poured an additional bottle of potion into her mouth.
Chiyiyi profit!
An injury that heals quickly with the imprint of the Undead and the healing effect of the potion.
“Kyaa—”
I muttered as I looked at the vampire bastard who was startled as if he didn’t understand the current situation.
Be honest.
??? ?? ?? ???…….
“??—?? ????……”
??? ?? ?? ? ??.
The fact that I am still alive is proof of that.
***
“What the hell did that guy do…!”
Raven, who was hiding behind the distant wreckage and watching the situation, couldn’t help but be astonished.
Through books, I have seen the extraordinary strategies and hunting methods of various explorers. None of them were like this.
Are you going to survive by just eating potions?
“There is no way I can succeed. I’m going to die!”
Common sense doesn’t make sense.
She knows this because she’s taken the potion several times.
The pain is beyond imagination, and the severity of the pain increases depending on the severity of the injury.
But what about that barbarian now
? !
It’s not that bubbles are boiling and steam is coming out, but smoke is billowing over her body. Even
she saw this phenomenon for the first time.
In this state, injuries are not a problem, and it’s not strange at all even if you die from shock.
Actually taking a potion Aren’t deaths common enough to be found without difficulty?
“Huh?”
Her eyes widened as she stomped her feet at that moment.
She couldn’t dare imagine the pain that barbarian was feeling right now.
But at least one It was clear.
It’s true that he shouldn’t even be able to move in that state.
But what the hell is this?
Knock-!
Blocked.
In a situation where he collapsed on the floor.
With a shield that has now become a piece of scrap metal.
The barbarian is stabbed from top to bottom. I blocked the nails of the vampires that were coming.
As if to prove that I didn’t get caught by accident after struggling.
Crack-!
Over and over again.
Of course, it’s not like I blocked all attacks or anything like that. Even now, the nails that are swinging indiscriminately The whole body is being attacked by eggs,
but
…
the attacks that aim at the most important vital points, such as the head or heart, are blocked by pushing the shield like a ghost.
‘Is this possible…?’
I didn’t know if it was precisely avoiding the pain with superhuman concentration or if it was just the fighting instinct left in the body that made it possible. However, a literature I read a long time ago suddenly came to mind. Is the true value
of
a barbarian not in its outstanding physical ability, but in its mental strength?
‘Somehow, I think I understand that now…’ ”
Raven-nim, I think
you ‘d better get out of here right now.”
But in reality, it means abandoning them and running away.
“At this rate, I’m not sure if I can protect Raven-nim. It’s just as dangerous here.”
Really,
I couldn’t stop praying.
If she could do it, she would have already done it.
She was often said to have a soft heart for a wizard, but she’s not naive enough to risk her life for the explorers she’s never met.
But…
“Are you insane? do you get away Where are you going?”
There is no place to run.
The only way to get out of the rift is to kill the ‘Guardian’ and go through the portal
.
Even a barbarian who had just finished his coming-of-age ceremony was coldly making judgments and taking the best course of action in the current situation…
What
on earth am I, a wizard, doing right now?
” Mr. Bjorn When you die, it’s over. I have to save it somehow.”
Originally, a wizard is not a being who only shoots high-powered magic from behind.
One of the wizard’s jobs is to coolly analyze the situation through knowledge in various fields and suggest the most efficient path to the team. ”
…….”
Raven checked the current situation once again. The
3rd year Dwarf warrior was unable to fight.
The barbarian was helping him recover by feeding him potions.
So far, there is no problem. …… As a wizard, he is waiting in hiding until his magical power is restored, and a human
swordsman
is escorting him.
Looking back, this is quite wasteful
. ”
Because I’m fine. At least you have to go over there so that even that female barbarian can join the battle.”
“…Okay.”
“Leave your backpack here and go.”
Tarzine followed the instructions without even replying to the somewhat nervous voice. She didn’t even look back and put her hand into the subspace backpack, ‘the
essence
of the corpse golem.’
As soon as you clearly associate the image, the test tube fits in your hand
.
Raven slowly raised her mana and developed the spells one by one.
Whoops!
Accuracy assist,
projectile range assist,
trajectory automatic adjustment.
If you add a few more spells here, you won’t have to move your arms yourself, but… ‘
Because I have to save even a little bit of magic.’
Soon after completing the spell
,
she threw the test tube she held in her hand as
hard
as she
could
