Episode 457 Raid (2)
“Oh! It’s quite strange.”
The moment Einar bent down and stretched out his hand.
“Stop!!!”
I released the lion’s roar and restrained Einar.
And he let out a sigh of relief only after moving the embarrassed Einar away from him.
“…what the hell! I didn’t do anything wrong!!”
Einar, who doesn’t even know what the situation is, first defends himself.
Of course, I had no intention of making a fuss.
“What the hell is this flower for?”
Because ignorance is not a sin.
Well… at least for the barbarians.
“No.9999 Beginner’s luck.”
When I revealed the name of the object, only one Amelia responded.
“…You got something valuable from the start.”
Cancer is precious.
This is what money can’t buy.
“So what is this?”
“Hmm… It’s one of the 109 treasures of the Labyrinth. Didn’t you read books when you were young?”
“……I didn’t ask you.”
I don’t know what the 109 treasures Amelia was talking about are, but I thought they would fight if left alone, so I interjected and replied.
“Beginner’s luck is a talisman item.”
For reference, the parts that were marked with the English name ‘Charm’ in the game.
“Is it a talisman…?”
It seemed to be an unfamiliar word, so I explained the concept of the amulet first, and Erwen also had his own explorer jjambab, so he understood the concept right away.
“Ah, to put it simply, it’s a type of equipment that activates its effects just by holding it, right?”
“yes.”
For reference, there are a total of 12 number items in the amulet system, and even if you have several different types of items, they do not overlap.
There is only one effect that activates.
“And there is also the characteristic that the beginner’s luck belongs to the first owner.”
“…Like the ‘Fire Orb’ you mentioned before?”
“okay.”
“…That’s right! I really didn’t know!! It’s true! Trust me!!”
As soon as he heard that it was a bound item, Einar made an excuse with a white face. Of course, there was no reason to react, so everyone just ignored it and continued the conversation.
“Then what effect does this flower have?”
Oh that.
Simple.
This number item doesn’t help much in battle. There is no item level increase effect when equipped, and there is no stat increase of course.
But…
“Increases the chance of getting an essence only for the first monster you hunted.”
“Ah, that’s right… It’s a strange thing!”
Unexpectedly, Erwen seemed to think so.
Einar also felt that something was missing.
“What is that ambiguous effect? It’s not like the essence comes out unconditionally! You only get the first monster you caught?”
It was not an incomprehensible reaction.
Because they won’t know the detailed probability.
According to statistics (made by myself), the drop rate increase due to beginner’s luck is about 5%.
Note that this increase rate is not multiplicative.
The increment is simply added to a fixed value.
For example, a Guardian’s Essence would add 5% to a 33% drop rate, making it 38%.
Of course, just looking at this, the effect seems insignificant…
“So how well does it come out?”
If the target is set as a normal monster, the story is completely different.
That’s because it’s bound to feel different.
33% becomes 38% and
0.01% becomes 5.01%.
“It’s probably about one in twenty.”
As soon as the approximate probability came out of my mouth, not only Einar, who was squeamish, but also Erwen and Amelia showed a slightly surprised expression.
“Is that for real!! One of twenty!”
It was a somewhat expected reaction.
Even if you don’t know the exact drop rate, all explorers learn it through experience. The drop rate of Essence that even the word atrocious is not enough.
I added a bit of explanation.
“Oh, of course, 20 are standard for 9th grade monsters, and I heard that higher grades come out better than this.”
As the monster level increases, the base drop rate also increases slightly.
Some of the 3rd ranks have a drop rate of up to 5%.
It’s very difficult to meet instead.
“I see… It deserves to be included in the 109 treasures.”
“It certainly is. Even if it’s your first time catching a monster, with this much probability, you can make a lot of money even if you only take a wizard with you.”
“Bjorn… I’m sorry
.
No, did you feel depressed because you didn’t respond to my excuses? I didn’t have anything to say, so I just ignored it and focused on the conversation.
Also, isn’t appraisal of loot over?
“Um…then who’s going to take this?”
Now it’s time to decide the owner of the object.
Because it is a bound item, it is impossible to sell it out.
“You said that you don’t have to hunt yourself as long as you have a binding magic…?”
“It’s probably the most efficient way for the person with the least number of monsters to eat.”
As Amelia said, considering the efficiency, it is better for the person with the lowest level to eat it.
And our current level is Amelia is 8 and Erwen Einar is 7.
“Auyen, how many spirits do you have now?”
“…Yes? Ah yes! It’s 6…!”
Therefore, feeding Auyen, who is level 6, and taking him around like a totem could be one way to do it, but… ‘
You can’t put this precious thing in a non-combat class that you can’t even carry with you during a real raid. .’
Soon I made a decision.
“Einar, take this for you.”
Erwen has the experience of defeating Bellarios, but Einar does not.
And most of all…….
“……Huh? This for me? Joe’s good, but Bjorn should have it for you…….”
Didn’t I say that there’s only one type of amulet ? I can’t.
We can’t waste arm equipment slots.
Because it belongs to you, you can’t take it off at will.
“As expected, it’s right for you to have it rather than me. So you should have this. Einar.”
“Byoreuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!”
Fortunately, Einar was also delighted.
***
?The luck that dwells in the flowers permeates Einar Pnellin.?
***
After clearing the Steel Tomb, we headed straight to the beast’s lair.
And…
“Aaaaaaa! How long do I have to stay in this stinky place! My exploration wasn’t like this!!”
I waited until the 8th day for the crack to open.
Of course, there could be ‘beginner’s luck’. It wasn’t that I didn’t think that it would be better to bring a mage later on, but
…….
In the end, the only thing I could take was the Guardian’s essence, but I planned to feed Erwen when it came out, so I decided there was no need to postpone it.
Well, in the end, I was drinking kimchi soup.
“…Really? Are you really going to waste your time like this?!!”
“It’s always like that, so stop whining.”
In fact, on the 8th day, when I headed to the portal, I was able to encounter teams of upper-middle class explorers everywhere.
They were explorers like us on ‘crack run’.
The crack on the second floor does not open after 7 days, so go upstairs without hesitation.
?I have entered the 3rd floor pilgrim’s path.?
After arriving at the 3rd floor, I passed the steel rock hill and went straight to the orc colony and focused on Nogada.
The monster I was going to catch this time had a deep relationship with me.
The same monster that Clan Dzarwi raided when the Lord of Chaos was summoned in the past.
Because he was an orc hero.
“Ohhhhh! Then [gigantic]! Can I also [gigantic] now!!”
Einar was overjoyed when he heard the third target of this route, but in fact, none of us would eat the essence of this target.
Because [Giantness] is reduced to an integer with too much penalty if there is no [Union] of the imprint of the Undead.
So, originally, I was planning to leave only by collecting experience points or aiming for number item drops.
But…
‘There’s even beginner’s luck, so there’s no way to get at least one.
I couldn’t see him opening his eyes and throwing away his essence, so he talked to all the mages he met while digging up the Orc Warrior’s manastone to dedicate to the altar.
Thanks to you, I was able to find one.
“Examination tube……? Of course there is one……”
“Good. When the integer comes out later, put one in there. I’ll pay for the test tube right there.”
“…What are you talking about? Knowing who you are—.”
“Louis! Are you crazy? Hey, you’re Baron Yandel!”
“……!!!”
Recruitment was easier than expected, perhaps thanks to his reputation.
I also got some helpful information.
Didn’t the crack open on the 3rd floor yet?
‘Okay, if this is the case, I think I can stay on the 3rd floor until the 13th day and then leave…’
After that, I started digging for magic stones again.
As they all scattered and hunted, they were able to collect all 777 magic stones in less than a day, and after collecting them all, they found a nearby wizard and had them wait nearby.
“Just in case, don’t come near me until I come. Really, if the Orc Lord pops out, I won’t be able to afford to take care of you.”
“If it’s an Orc Road…”
“It’s a 2nd class monster.”
“2… Level 2!”
“But don’t worry too much, as long as you don’t come nearby, you’ll be safe.”
“I’ll keep that in mind…….”
Then, the preparation is over.
Finally, after explaining how to deal with the Oak Road, he dedicated the magic stone to the altar.
“The soul of a warrior has been dedicated to the vessel of a warrior.” “
The soul of a warrior has been dedicated
to a vessel of a warrior.”
A magic stone that disappears.
?Special conditions – Filling bowls are met.?
As if to signal the start of the boss battle, the stone statue standing behind the altar began to peel off.
Boothssssss.
Fortunately, the stone statue of the Oak Road was intact.
Well, considering the Orc Lord’s summoning probability, it was
only natural…
It feels like you’ve passed a hurdle.
“Everyone get ready!”
As soon as he shouted at his comrades who were far away from the altar.
?Ancient hero Danish awakens.?
?Ancient hero Velta awakens.?
?Ancient hero Tarugas awakens.?
Three Orc heroes.
The so-called hero, Samdori, broke the stone statue and jumped out, and the battle immediately began.
[Gul-kaaaaaaaa!!!]
“Behel—laaaaaaaaaa!!!”
ax hammer sword.
Samdol, the hero who runs at me with different weapons. Thanks to the connection of [Giantness] to [Transcendence], there was no feeling of being pushed out of the weight class.
Whoop-!
Also, it didn’t hurt even if I was hit with a weapon because I couldn’t block it.
Just a little bone throbbing?
To be honest, I thought I could survive for a day or so just by being beaten.
But…
‘This should be perfect for guessing the sum.’
When I didn’t do anything other than get hit, the battle turned into a protracted battle.
It was a very natural reason.
Only three level 5 monsters.
It’s simply because the difficulty of these guys’ attack is quite high to dismiss it that way.
[Chwiiyiik-!!!]
As soon as the raid started, a group of 7th or lower Orcs began to rush in from the forest without rest.
Kwaaang! Quaang! Pew-!
As in the briefing, Einar is working hard, but because of that, one more dealer to fight the boss is missing.
Simply put, it means that Erwen and Amelia have to catch all three.
Of course, they both have a history of detonating a death worm in one shot in the rocky desert…
“The ancient hero Danish
cast [Anguish].” I mean, it’s a high-ranking variant.
Even the integers the three have are all different.
?Ancient hero Belta cast [Sacred Battlefield]?
?Ancient hero Tarugas cast [Guardian Shield]?
Essence combination in the form of complementing each other’s weaknesses and maximizing strengths.
But it’s not the end here, there’s one more goal to hit.
?Erwen Fornaci di Tersia cast [Concentrated Fire]?
?Danish used [Greatsword of Control]?
?The trajectory of long-range attacks is modified?
These guys use number items.
?The Orc shaman cast [Zealand].?
?Danish’s physical resistance increases by 3 times for 10 seconds.?
Also, even if he gets hit in the meantime, he gets hit with a greatly reduced damage……
?The Orc shaman [ Imprint of Regeneration] has been cast.?
?Tarugas’ natural regeneration power is greatly increased.?
He even receives healing in real time, showing off his majesty that no Orc hero encountered in a normal field can even imitate.
Effectively, the higher variant kill bonus. There is absolutely no reason to do a raid without the ‘Able to drop number items’ feature.
“What are you guys doing! Don’t kill me right away!! Didn’t you just kill that earthworm well!”
“No, that’s easier said than done!”
“Never mind us and do your thing. Barbarian.”
As soon as we got into a bit of a difficult situation, sure enough, the feud started…
but everyone was a pro.
“Mr. Einar! Could you please kill the shaman first?”
“Tersia. First, target the guy with the hammer. I’ll block the guy with the sword.”
“Behel—laaaaaaa!”
As time passed slowly, they felt that there was no answer as it was, so they gave each other feedback and cooperated to create opportunities.
“Aaaaaaaaa!”
Auyen, whose name is level 6, also vigorously wielded his weapon near Erwen and helped him deal with the rubbish mobs.
And finally.
?You have defeated the ancient hero Belta. EXP +5”
“Bonus for defeating high-ranking mutants. EXP +1”
I was able to defeat one of the three stones, and the battle ended with an instant advantage.
“You have defeated the ancient hero Danish.
” EXP +1”
“You have defeated Tarugas, the ancient hero.
” EXP +1”
Checking the time, the total battle time was about 35 minutes. Considering that the raid was done with 4 people, it was fairly fast…….
“Nothing came out. I had a hard time with it…….”
The loot was 0.
Neither integers nor number items appeared.
But then what?
This kind of dejection is something I always experience while playing [Dungeon & Stone].
“Okay, then let’s quickly collect the magic stones and move. Oh Emily. You tell the wizard over there that it’s okay to go.”
Soon after, we farmed the magic stones by hand and left the orc colony.
Up to this point there have been no problems.
It’s just…
“Old man…?”
When I was staying near the Witch’s Forest and staring at the creation of a rift until the 13th day.
An abnormal premonition has begun.
“The fifth sacrifice has been offered to the hut.” “
The sixth sacrifice has been offered to the hut
.
”
A bright red light was scattered from the ceiling I looked up at.
?Special conditions – Seven sacrifices are met.?
Heo I heard that unlucky guys lose their teeth even if they fall backwards.
I don’t know what kind of guy he is.
?The lord of chaos, Riakis, starts wandering the floors.?
This is a headache.
