Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 13

Episode 13

Dio blinked and tried to understand the contents of the system message.

‘The skills are changing? ‘In what way?’

When Dio asked a question, red energy began to emanate from his body as if responding.

An energy that seems to burn everything it touches.

The energy began to surround the system where the ‘Slash’ skill was written.

And finally it covered the entire system.

[The power of the forgotten swordsman recognizes the seal of [Fire].]

[Skill ‘Slash’ is integrated and changed.]

[Change….]

[Change is complete.]

A fiery red energy appears in an instant. The skill description that disappeared and reappeared in Dio’s eyes had completely changed.

—————

Forgotten Swordsmanship

Chosik [Fire]

Chosik with the power of [Fire].

It is one of the forgotten ancient sword techniques.

Skill Effect: Slash – Swing the sword to inflict damage to enemies in front.

Cool time: 5 seconds

—————

The effect itself didn’t seem to have changed, but a new background for the skill was added.

That’s not all.

—————

1. Achieve mastery 100

2. [???]- Open when mastery 100 is achieved

3. Obtain the essence of flame

4. [???]

—————

Why is the class ‘ It was the moment I realized that it said ‘growth type’.

‘The power I received from the Death Knight affected my skills. ‘Does this mean we can grow it this way?’

Putting aside the unchanging oath of liberation, Dio thought about the forgotten conditions for the evolution of swordsmanship once again in detail.

‘It would be a priority to raise the skill level first.’

Other conditions except for the fourth condition, which is marked with a question mark and cannot be known.

Those were issues that could be resolved if Dio worked diligently.

The second condition is a condition that can only be opened if you increase your skill level first.

The third condition, ‘Essence of Flame’, is an item that can be obtained with a very low probability by killing a fire attribute monster.

However, the items obtained for smelting and production still exist in the warehouse of ‘Big City Rivernos’.

‘Even though it is a warehouse far from Evra Village…’

Still, it was fortunate for Dio that there was no need to obtain a new one.

‘As it is a growth class, you must move for ‘growth’.’

Dio realized what he had to do to become stronger with the ‘Forgotten Swordsman’ class.

And with that in mind, I started thinking about my future plans.

First, Dio calculated the most appropriate stat distribution for the one and only skill.

‘I don’t know how the skill evolves. If you simply assume the ‘cut’ of the warrior skill…’

The calculation didn’t take that long.

“good.”

Dio completed the distribution in an instant and then reviewed the status window.

—————

[Status Window]

: 35

: Forgotten Swordsman (Growth Type) – General

Strength: 85

Dexterity: 50

Intelligence: 5

Stamina: 50

Mana: 5

Bonus Points: 0

HP: 380

MP: 225

————–

I invested too much power.

However, considering Dio’s current situation and class characteristics, it could be seen as the optimal choice.

The skill is also a ‘swordsmanship’ that does not consume MP.

Like the martial arts of martial arts, the ‘swordsmanship’ of Order Board can be learned step by step once the player has mastered it.

We don’t know in what direction the forgotten swordsmanship will grow in the future.

However, basic stamina and strength were essential to immediately increase proficiency.

‘Let’s see, I’m level 35 now…’

Dio’s head started to spin quickly.

There is only one week left until the monster wave.

In fact, if the average user is the standard, the situation is still close to hopeless.

It was still a long way from reaching level 100, the appropriate level for the ‘waves’ of Evra Village,

and there was no way around here that a level 30 user could hunt.

But Dio had a relaxed expression.

Once the level started to rise, there were endless ways for D.O.

‘The warehouse is not in shape.’

Dio, who remembered the items in the warehouse, grinned and started walking.

The minimum level Dio had to reach before the wave started was 50.

Regardless of his peace of mind, Dio had no time to waste.

* * *

The lowest level monsters around Evra Village are generally around level 80.

And among them, the monster that Dio can catch now is…

-Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

It was only a reptilian monster with huge armor named ‘Armored Turtle’.

thud-!

With an animal roar, a huge turtle carrying a sharp iron shell fell down.

[Armored Turtle/Normal Monster/Lv.83]

[Armored Turtle defeated.]

[3015 experience points obtained.]

Dio, breathing heavily in front of the fallen Armored Turtle, cleared away the flying dust and appeared.

“Haha haha is this the 3rd one?”

The Armored Turtle is twice as big as a human and is characterized by strong physical strength and defense.

Instead, the speed is extremely slow.

So, if you exploit its weaknesses, it was a monster that Dio could hunt without getting hit even once.

That means it takes a lot of effort and time to hunt one.

The good news was that Dio was a hard worker.

‘Still, it can be said to be the optimal environment to increase skill proficiency.’

I invested a lot of strength stats in consideration of the Armored Turtle, but even so, Dio could not easily defeat the Armored Turtle with his attack power.

In addition, the basic slash of the skill Herbivorous [Fire] was proportional to Dio’s poor attack power, so it was a skill that was a disaster.

However, D.O. had already reached the point where he enjoyed hard work.

He swung simple ‘cuts’ hundreds of times to increase his skill proficiency.

[Proficiency 2.4/100]

That was the reason why each animal was able to increase its skill proficiency by as much as 0.8 points.

“eww. Still, I can’t help but feel frustrated. “It would have been nice to have a ‘Moonlight Longsword’ in the warehouse.”

Currently, Dio’s weapons are all general grade weapons sold at basic stores.

Unfortunately, there was still no equipment suitable for Dio’s level in the warehouse.

“Unfortunately, I have no choice but to hunt. “You can’t fight with your bare hands, right?”

Dio, aware of his situation, complained.

Anyway, Dio was at the stage of increasing his understanding of the class by hunting Armored Turtles.

Dio was first focusing on ‘swordsmanship’ and was testing various types of swords.

Monsters that are already at different levels.

As I hunted them, the durability of my weapons depleted even faster, and I ended up breaking several of them.

‘As expected, a one-handed sword is not suitable in many ways. Due to the nature of the skill, a great sword would be suitable.’

Dio threw the broken sword on the floor and opened his inventory.

“It won’t be easy.”

Dio took out a new supply greatsword, muttered to himself, and began searching for the target again.

‘Before the monster wave begins, the skill proficiency must be set to 100.’

D.O. always pursues the highest efficiency even in extreme hunting environments.

Hunting will speed up more and more.

Every time you catch an Armored Turtle, your experience points steadily increase.

Dio walked towards his next prey, dragging his huge greatsword.

* * *

A week passed and the monster wave arrived.

‘I somehow managed to raise it to level 50.’

Dio checked the status window and looked around.

There is currently 1 hour left until the monster wave.

The guards and mercenaries between the fences surrounding Evra Village were fully prepared at their designated locations.

-The

villagers who were working on the iron equipment didn’t seem particularly nervous.

This may be because they are veterans who have experienced countless monster waves called waves.

[Local Quest: Stop the monster wave!]

Help the villagers stop the monster wave!

[Time Remaining: 00:05:28]

With about 5 minutes remaining, the ground began to shake.

Kugugugugu –

It was a sunny day, but dark clouds quickly covered the sky.

As the omen that signaled the beginning of something decorated the stage, the cries of monsters rang out along with it.

-Crukkruk…

-Uuuuung!

Various monsters living around Evra Village appeared in waves.

They each began to form a line as if they had made an appointment.

As the area near the village has a forest topography, most of the monster wave’s constituents had insect-type properties.

From the level 107 giant wasp ‘Killer Bee’ swarm to the level 128 mantis ‘Bug Reaper’.

The sight of the hideous insects growing into gigantic figures still had a visual that gave me goosebumps.

Of course, not only insect-type monsters appeared.

-Uji string. Kkwajijijik!

A golem appeared as it approached, knocking down a tree.

The Armored Turtle also immediately crawled out of the ground.

-Awww!

Even the werewolves that put the D-class mercenaries in danger.

The group of monsters forming a line, drooling, resembled an army of ordinary humans.

‘It’s just the beginning.’

Dio stood up and looked at the monsters that were gathering fiercely.

Monster Wave is a system designed to adapt to players.

But Dio knows how to go beyond adaptation and maximize the benefits.

Aka how to suck honey from a monster wave.

‘The villagers don’t need help. Anyway, the village’s power is set to sufficiently withstand the wave.’

When a quest begins, a dedicated quest area is displayed next to the villagers placed in each area.

There, helping the villagers and hunting monsters is the norm.

However, everyone in the village knows that even if the player does not help the villagers, he will stop them on his own.

[Help the villagers to stop the monster wave!]

‘You should focus on the last sentence, not the first sentence.’

It’s not about helping the villagers.

They are members of Evra Village, a level 100 village.

You can survive on your own.

So, just as the saying goes that you only have to go to Seoul to go to Moro, literally all you have to do is stop the monster wave.

The important thing here is that even if the player stays still, the monster wave is easily blocked.

Of course, if nothing is done, the player will gain nothing from the wave.

The intention of the system is to hunt only in designated areas.

And the experience points and monster by-products obtained there become the player’s basic funds.

However, what Dio wants is not that much compensation.

I want a bigger reward than what the system recommends.

There is a fixed answer for that.

You can ignore ‘Help the villagers’ and just leave the area and wander around yourself.

[The monster wave will soon begin targeting Evra Village.]

[Remaining time: 00:00:10]

As the countdown to announce the start of the wave began, Dio, who had adjusted his mask, flapped his cape.

Dio, fully prepared, smiled and opened his mouth.

“Shall we begin now?”
