Deadly Battle In The Dungeon 5th Floor Continued
Overwhelmed by the sight of the giant litter rushing toward me, I stood still.
My heart skipped a beat, and the scenery slowed to a crawl as I felt a strong presence of death. And as I was about to see a runaway light, a strong feeling of "I will not be run over and killed by a cockroach I hate!"
With this thought, I clenched my teeth and frantically moved my arms and legs in a world that felt like it was in slow motion. However, the massive cockroach is almost right in front of me.
(Ugh, the only escape is up there!)
Quickly, I leaped on the spot. The massive cockroach rushed in without paying attention to the green nylon bird net I set up as a defensive formation. The massive cockroach passed by at breakneck speed, wrapping the net around its feet. The massive cockroach pulled the net and the clothesline and attacked me in the sky too.
(Triangle jump!)
I kicked the dungeon wall and forcibly moved my body to avoid the net and the clothesline. But because of my movement, I lost my balance. At this rate, I could not even catch myself and had no choice but to fall to the hard floor.
(Nya, nyanpari!)
I quickly rounded myself and did three rotations in the air. I did a posture control by taking advantage of the moment. Then, with the cat's lightness, I could land on the dungeon floor with nothing under my feet. As soon as I turned around, there was a tremendous sound.
[Giggityguggity! Sugigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigig!!!"]
The massive cockroach, which had gone straight through the double simple defensive formation, had a net entangled in its many spiky limbs, and it lost control and came to a stop, scraping the right side of its body against the wall.
And even though the massive cockroach tried to move, it couldn't move as it wished because its body was entangled with the net.
(Thank goodness I set up a defensive formation!)
I was thrilled that such a simple defensive formation did its job well.
["Gitch!..millimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimBuchi!"]
But still, the opponent was a massive cockroach. It tried to escape from the net by brute force. But the net, though thin, is made of nylon. And it is double-layered. When I thought escape would be impossible, the massive cockroach forcefully tore up the net into strips.
"Damn! Sticky Bullet! Sticky Bullet! Sticky Bullet! Sticky Bullet! Sticky Bullet!!!!"
The countless sticky bullets produced by the Sticky Bullet quickly turn the massive cockroach into a mucus-soaked mess. However, it's not like I want to see the massive cockroach in bondage covered in mucus.
The sticky bullet is, in essence, a torimochi bullet. The liquid nature of the mucus is made as low as possible, and its viscous nature is made as high as possible. The Sticky Bullet was created by the power of the skill [Mucus].
The Sticky Bullet has blocked the massive cockroach's movement. Okay, now is the time to kill it. But I have no weapons. I had to let go of my bat and shield as I was being chased around and ducking body blows. Moreover, my protective gear was in tatters from rolling on the floor and bumping into things.
I hurriedly looked around to find an iron bamboo spear. I always carried that spear with me when I carried my simple defensive formation and kept it as a spare weapon in the camp.
My iron bamboo spear was neither broken nor bent and had fallen. It was stuck in the corner of the passageway. There it was! I picked it up as if to jump on it and, poof, thrust it into the abdomen of the massive cockroach which at first glance seemed to have the lowest defense.
["Gakyan!"]
"Uno way!"
But it was repelled. That's impossible. How hard it is. Even with the attack, I put all my energy into it. I didn't even penetrate the outer skin. It didn't seem to be hurt at all.
Hmmm, then, I turned toward the head while keeping my distance to see if there was any other place that could be a weak point.
["Bloop! Pishahn!"]
"Whoa, oh no!"
As soon as I went around the head of the massive cockroach, it attacked me with a long whip-like object. The whip made a sound like a hard wire being struck when it hit the floor, and the frictional heat of the whip melted the net that had spread across the floor.
But when I wondered where such a terrifying whip had appeared, to my surprise, it was the antennae of a massive cockroach. It gnawed at the net with its mighty jaws, and before I knew it, it had shredded the net around its head in a fraction of a second. Yikes! To block its movement, I sprayed sticky bullets at the massive cockroach's head, blocking its vision, jaws, and antennae.
Okay, now the massive cockroach's movement is blocked. But there is no way to defeat it.
Even its abdomen, which looked the softest, was impenetrable to the spear. There is a way to kill it slowly by damaging its respiratory organs with Acid Mist, but that would take too much time, and it might escape from the net first. Besides, the sticky bullets that blocked its movement would not last that long.
But then I had an idea. Even though it's a fearsome monster, creatures are still creatures. If they are living creatures, there must be a common weakness. Then, even this seemingly impregnable massive cockroach must have an attack it can pass through.
And I solved the mystery. Yes, there is always one truth hole (asshole)!
"Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!"
I go behind the massive cockroach and thrust my iron bamboo spear with my rippling spirit.
["Zububububuuuuu! Bikbikbikbikbikbikbikbikbikbik!"]
With a very unpleasant and sure response, the iron bamboo spear pierces deeply into the truth hole of the massive cockroach. It is a critical hit. Even the massive cockroach is suffering from this blow, its body trembling.
But the hell is yet to come. I will repay the grudge heaped upon me by chasing me around and shaking me to pieces many times, so I savor it to the fullest.
"Take it! Quick! Acid Charge!"
I put my right hand on the steel bamboo spear base and used it as a tube to inject a thick acid solution into the body of the massive cockroach.
["Gosh! gasha gasha gasha!!!! (Bik-bik-bik-bik!)"]
The super giant goki writhes in agony as it is subjected to an enema of thick acid solution. But I will not allow it. We will keep injecting an acid solution into it until it dies.
Then, it is a quiet fight to the death.
However, the massive cockroach, which has a high life force, does not die even when an acid solution is injected into its body, and it finally dies after more than 30 minutes.
As its strength was gone and it fell to the ground. It disappeared in a puff of smoke. At the same time, a light that I had never seen before when defeating a monster flooded out.
"Ugh!"
Flinching at the suddenness of the situation, I backed away, protecting my face with my hands. However, the overflowing light chased after me in a whirlpool.
Before I could escape, light surrounded me. I escaped in a panic. I notice my body that is touched by the light is warm and comfortable. As if I had just soaked in a bath.
"What the?"
I stop in place, and the light slips into me. It doesn't feel unpleasant but very pleasant, as if power filled my body. Soon, I absorbed all the light from the massive cockroach, and my surroundings returned to their usual dungeon brightness.
I don't know why. But anyway, I defeated the massive cockroach. And I survived. The other cockroaches had already been annihilated by the Acid Mist I had released, and there were no monsters around.
The only thing in front of my eyes now is the outer shell of the massive cockroach. It has lost its contents and crumbled into pieces. Could it be that this is a drop? Anyway, I hid by the stairs and tried to calm down and understand what had happened.
Then my status became ridiculous.

Title
The Bug King
My level has increased by 10, and each ability value has increased by 100. Even luck, which until now has been ironclad and unwavering, has increased by 100 to a value of 103. What is this?
There are many strange things about this status. The values are always off, and this time, the value of knowledge is replaced by intelligence. It makes me wonder if I can trust it.
However, power filled my body. My body was injured by running away from the massive cockroach and hitting here, and there was healed. I don't even feel the pain anymore. My ability value has been doubled! The doubled physical strength seems to have allowed my body to recover naturally.
Hmmm, there are many things to think about. But anyway, let's go back to the front room of the dungeon.
My head is in turmoil, and my equipment is in tatters. If another massive cockroach appeared when I'm in such a state, I would be in for a rude awakening. I quickly searched for and retrieved a barbecue shield and a bat, and returned home, collecting the dropped items and dragging them through the net.
