Chapter 547

Episode 547 Ghost (5)

[Scale of Greed]

As long as you have enough exorcism, it’s an active skill with a high score that allows you to get a ‘magic immunity’ judgment.

There are even more effects here.

?Physical resistance increases in proportion to the amount of magic damage Bellarios has reduced.?

That skill isn’t content with blocking magic, it even raises the physical resistance level.

To put it simply, it’s like having all-purpose scales that get harder and harder when hit by magic…

Literally, it can’t be a very greedy scale.

But, unfortunately, I met the wrong person today.

‘Because greed doesn’t push even explorers.’

There is a saying that the greed of an explorer is the greed of greed.

Oh, by the way, I just made this.

And in that sense…

“Behel—laaaaaaaaaa!!!”

It expresses its inner greed and runs forward.

Integer, integer, integer, integer.

Undoubtedly the essence!

When I look in the mirror, I feel as if a clear-eyed madman is inside.

It hadn’t been a long time since I’d heated up this much in front of a monster.

But how can you stand this?

How many times have I been devastated by magic damage, which was my only weakness.

If you do that, all of those problems will be solved.

yeah, so…

‘First of all, this guy.’

The goat-headed blacksmith who stood in my way.

He strikes the hammer at Hellmiss’ head.

Kwaaang-!

Although his chin was slightly turned after being hit by the hammer, he did not budge, befitting a level 3 monster with good toughness.

No, rather, they immediately counterattacked.

“Hellsmith has cast [Tap].”

“The flame dwelling in the earth awakens.”

The ground cracked and the fire soared.

When our chieftain used it, it was a buff skill that had a duration and was close to a special move, but it was good to see it as a skill that lasted all the time.

In the first place, most of the skills obtained with essence tend to have poor performance.

“The damage of all fire skills is greatly increased.”

“The body value increases significantly in proportion to the fire sensitivity value.”

“Continuously burns the surroundings.”

Red flames shimmered over his torso, but the sustained damage was still bearable.

Originally, there is a saying that explorers suck in equipment, right?

Oh, this is a real word.

“You have activated the Orb of Fire.”

?Reduces continuous damage of all flame series within a radius of 15m by 50%.?

With the activation of the ‘Orb of Fire’, the damage was reduced even more.

And it’s the same for the people around me.

?Versil Gowland cast the 8th grade enchantment [Cold Blood].?

“The character’s fire resistance is greatly increased.”

When the ‘cold blood’ magic was added to this, the continuous damage came down to a level that could be ignored.

thus….

“Attack!”

Amelia pulls out her aura, and Misha wields a longsword full of cold.

also.

?Einar Pnellin cast [Trident].?

Einar demonstrates his newly acquired skills for the first time in real combat.

Whieik-!

A spear that stretches forward with a piercing sound like arrows flying.

Two translucent windows are added on either side of the window.

Due to the effect of the [Trident], originally these spears were supposed to pierce two enemies near the target.

but….

‘The color of the name is a level 3 essence, but I’m sad about that.’

[Trident] is a wide-area skill, but it is actually a skill that shines more when performing a single attack.

Just like this.

“There are no enemies around the attack target.”

“All attacks hit the target.”

Three spears pointed toward the goat’s head.

Of course, it wasn’t a judgment that stuck in the same spot like [Repeat Slash], and the skills I had were never activated.

But that doesn’t mean it’s weak.

Increases spear penetration damage by 1,200%.

This one line of options alone can pull out enough damage from a 4th grade or lower essence combination.

Pooh-!

The moment the three deeply embedded spears are pulled out.

Red blood gushed out of a hole the size of the spear.

However, that time was extremely short.

“Hellsmith cast [Temporary].”

The wound was red hot like lava, and a silver film covered it as if it had been treated for tooth decay.

Hellsmith, who healed his wounds in an instant, roared and cast one more of his main skills.

“Hellsmith has cast [Hellfire].”

[Hellfire].

It is an attacking machine with good performance, to the extent that there has been one breeding method with this skill as the main one in the past.

Pew-! pop! Kwaaaang-! Kwaaang-!

Just like a volcano erupts.

From the lava bag he was carrying on his back, red liquid splashed everywhere and exploded.

and starting from this.

“Bellarios cast [Disaster].”

Bellarios also entered the battlefield and the raid began in earnest.

***

[Disaster] is a very unique skill.

Especially in that it gives effects to the field itself.

?Field Effect – Typhoon is applied.?

A field effect that is randomly applied within the radius when used.

Shaaaaaaa-!

A gale blows, a gray whirlpool swirls.

Thanks to this, the field of view was greatly narrowed, but this was just an additional effect due to the effect.

“The activation rate of all skills is reduced to 50%.”

If you use a skill in a typhoon, one of the two will be canceled in the middle.

‘It’s bothering me. A typhoon from the beginning.’

Still, it was fortunate that this place was not the Dragon Mountains.

It has its own field effect, which is much more taxing.

“Take care of Hellsmith first!”

As soon as the instructions came out, the distance dealers also started spraying the skills they had prepared.

The joint magic that has been cast for a long time unfolds, and various abilities are shot at exquisite angles to avoid nearby dealers.

and that moment.

“Bellarios cast [Dragon Orb].”

?Increases the resource consumption of all characters within the radius by 12 times.?

In the midst of a typhoon that is hard to open your eyes, a yellow light bursts out, exuding a divine atmosphere.

Yes, when did you write it?

‘Isn’t the skill activation mechanism when a certain amount of resources are consumed?’

[Dragon’s Orb] was as unique as [Disaster].

An open fire skill that increases resource consumption by 12 times and returns the amount consumed as MP.

Of course, this is only superficial, but there is a fatal flaw in this skill.

“Hellsmith cast [Temporary].”

?[Dragon Orb] increases resource consumption by 12 times.?

?Field Effect – The skill failed due to a typhoon.?

?The [Dragon Orb] steals the consumed resources.?

Like [Disaster], [Dragon’s Orb] is applied to both enemies and allies.

Since it’s a unique mechanism, there was a time when I made a training method with this skill as the main.

He was a one-person carry-type character who sucked up the resources of his colleagues with the [Dragon’s Orb] after setting an extreme deal and pulled out crazy deals.

Well, at least it feels like Erwen’s backwards compatibility, so I did it a few times just for fun, but threw it away.

anyway.

“Don’t stop!”

It was a typhoon and increased resource consumption, and he poured all the deals on Hellsmith.

and the result.

?Field Effect – Earthquake is applied.?

?All effects related to movement are sealed.?

Although Bellarios used [Disaster] once more with the recovered MP, he was still able to achieve his goal.

?You have defeated Hellsmith. EXP +7”

A guy who met a miserable end with his MP being stolen by a colleague he had to fight with, and his skill casting blocked.

Shaaaaaaa-!

Soon, his body turned into a halo of light and fluttered, but there was only one reward.

Took.

Grade 3 magic stone.

‘I was expecting a bit because it was my first treatment…’

The Essence that I had in case did not drop.

He was slightly regretful, but he wasn’t very obsessed.

After all, the main dish is different…

‘Rather, it went well.’

If beginner’s luck had been activated here, he would have been more anxious for nothing.

Originally, gacha requires a sacrifice.

“Now all that’s left is him!”

“You know? Wizards, please use only support magic and help! Never use offensive magic!”

After killing Miss Hell, he focused all his energy on Bellarios.

The wizard changed his position from a dealer to a supporter, and the ranged dealers intercepted the guy who was floating in the air and spraying skills.

and….

“come!”

The one who was flying was the only one who came down, and the melee ones also swung their weapons in line with the timing.

?Bellarios cast [Wave Swimming].?

?Bellarios cast [Breath of Death].?

?Bellarios cast [Shredding]…?

The longer the battle, the more battered his scales become.

?Bellarios cast [Disaster].?

?Field Effect – Drought is applied.?

?All beneficial effects are removed, and all negative effects are strengthened.?

That was around the time he used his third [Disaster].

Whii-i-iik-!

Erwen’s arrow shot from afar stuck between his eyebrows, and the battle was over.

Did it take 10 minutes in total?

While calculating the battle time in my head, I fixed my eyes on Bellarios, who disappeared in a halo of light.

[Bellarios has been defeated. EXP +7]

Soon, his corpse disappears, and the light in the air turns into magic stones and falls to the floor.

Took.

None of the explorers were interested in the magic stone that had fallen.

?No.9999 Beginner’s Luck has been activated.?

Jeongsu floated.

Instead, the problem is…

‘…it’s yellow.’

It wasn’t the [Scale of Greed].

***

The active skill of the yellow essence is [Shredding].

It is basically a long-range attack, but it is an unavoidable instant skill that greatly increases power when used in close proximity.

“Ah… that’s a pity. Yellow, isn’t that what you wanted?”

“Fu… then what will happen to that essence? I’m sure there are many people who want it…”

While everyone was concentrating on the essence, Amelia came over, brushing the blood from her dagger.

“Yandel, are you okay? You look pretty hurt.”

“Ah, it’s okay. The equipment was not seriously injured.”

“…”

I was barely injured when fighting Tier 2, especially the rift guardian Milayel, but I was injured in the battle with Bellarios.

[Shredding] is impossible to guard due to the type of attack.

This is because the space around the designated target shrinks and inflicts damage…

Shaaaaaaaaa-

Still, it was just a residual injury, so when the heel went in a little, it started to recover quickly.

“I’m glad you’re okay, but what are you going to do with Jeongsu?”

“Ah, that…”

Soon after my body returned to normal, I hurriedly organized my thoughts.

‘Why did [Shredding] come out?’

It’s not bad if you look at just one skill.

Instant fire when it was impossible to evade, and even a judgment that it was impossible to guard.

Even the damage is decent, the MP consumption is low, and the cooldown is short.

but….

‘It’s difficult to grow.’

As much as there are such advantages, there is a fatal disadvantage that it is difficult to create synergy with other skills.

It means that no matter how you set your skills, there is little chance of growth…

“decided.”

It didn’t take long to determine the owner of the essence.

“Auyen Lockrove.”

The navigator, the only non-combatant member of our clan.

“…yes?”

“You have this.”

“……Yes?”

“What are you freaking out about?”

“Ha, but… isn’t this an essence related to sailing…?”

Oh, so you didn’t say much when the level 3 essence was discarded.

I smiled and patted the boy on the shoulder.

“No matter how much you are a navigator, you are also a member of our clan. You must have at least one essence to protect your body.”

I was thinking of giving one if there was something suitable.

And if it was an Essence that produced similar performance no matter who wore it, it was judged that Auyen, a non-combat manpower, would be able to make full use of it.

‘With the passive skill, [Circulation Ring], I can also bring up basic stats.’

But wouldn’t that be unbelievable?

“Uh, uh…”

Auyen only twitched like a distraught man.

and how long has it been

“thank you. Thank you… Really… Thank you very much…”

For some reason, the navigator started to shed tears.

***

?[Bellarios’ essence] permeates Auyen Lockrobe’s soul.”

***

What is it, why is he crying all of a sudden?

As I was perplexed by the sudden situation, Amelia came over to my side.

“It seems that the sadness of the past has been pushed back. After hearing the old story, it was not uncommon to be ignored while working as a navigator.”

…okay? I didn’t know that.

“Since you gave me the essence to protect yourself, I must have mixed feelings. It must have felt like being acknowledged for the first time.”

Well, even saying that doesn’t make much sense.

Just to the extent that he also had a lot of hard work?

At this point, I lost my interest.

“Kuhmmmm…”

“Oh oh! Bjorn is embarrassed!”

Because it’s not like that.

‘Why is Amelia smiling like that?’

I didn’t want to be misunderstood, so I quickly changed the topic by shouting.

“Everyone take a break!”

A break time given to everyone.

While I was resting nearby, Erwen approached with quick steps this time.

“Mister, are you resting?”

“uh. however?”

“I have a question for you.”

Any questions?

“Tell me.”

“Why did you keep me out of this battle? It would have been a lot easier if I had caught one and started.”

“Oh, is that?”

It was definitely the right story.

If Erwen had pulled out a special move, even two level 3 monsters would have been over soon.

He would have crushed Hellsmith with the Dark Sphere, and blew Bellarios away with [Concentrated Fire] in one shot.

but….

“Isn’t there still a lot of time left?”

“yes?”

After using a special move, Erwen cannot participate in battle for a while.

And the current time is 17:00.

To put it simply, if Erwen, who is already a high-class manpower, is missing, the number of monsters that can be caught will decrease.

‘Okay, so it seems everyone has rested enough…’

Soon I got up and gave the order to assemble, and after everyone gathered, I formed a formation and summoned the monsters.

After repeating the nogada until 23:00, the day’s work was finished and camp was prepared.

and the next morning.

“Chew and eat! Because I didn’t even add vegetables!”

As soon as I woke up, I ate breakfast and started a new day’s routine.

Okay, the rice is delicious today.

“Based on 38 members, there are 60 days left.”

There is nothing wrong with material management.

“I found a strange number on Freneline’s body. It may be a clue to the ability of Heapramagent to embody.”

The investigation team is not as successful as usual.

It was a morning where everything was fine.

Except for one.

“Yandel, let’s talk for a minute.”

As I was hanging around to order fire extinguishers, Amelia, who is in charge of commanding the guards, called me out.

And she hesitated a little before opening her mouth.

“It’s because there aren’t one or two people who have witnessed the same thing to just pass it off as seeing something false.”

“What did you see?”

“I’ll tell you in advance, when I checked, there was nothing in this library.”

“No, so what did you see?”

At my question, Amelia whispered softly as she carefully looked around.

“There are stories of seeing ghosts… in the middle of the night.”

…Ghost?
