Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 157
Episode 157:
The place engulfed by the dream environment was transformed into a strange place that seemed to be covered with dark clouds.
The allied forces commanded by Prince Prian also fell asleep one by one.
If this is left as is, it seems only a matter of time before the Allied forces are annihilated.
The dream environment initially causes the subject to fall into sleep, but then the subject’s body melts at the cost of continuing the dream.
However, Dio knew exactly how long the human body could survive in a dream environment.
We must finish this eastern expedition while no one can see us during this time.
So, I woke up a little later after Deathrugger cast Dream Dream.
“It was hard to act.”
Dio brushed off the dust from his clothes and walked towards Elaine and Galetto.
While laughing at them a lot.
“You…how?”
“If you don’t know the dream environment, there is no answer, but if you know it, it is easy to deal with it.”
When Galletto asked how he could be fine, Dio waved an empty medicine bottle at him.
The sleeping gas, which spreads at a much higher density than the Eternal Rest, is powerful enough to affect even Descruger himself.
If you use this pattern, you will not be able to land a last hit on Deathrugger, which will result in loss of experience points, so the stagnant players devise a way to block it in advance.
However, even though he knew the method, Dio waited for the guy to obediently cast the dream.
Because only then can you shake off the five damn swords.
Anyway, Dio, who knew the signs of Deathcruger, took the extra top-quality resistance potion in advance.
This is a potion with the blessing of the sun applied in addition to the highest-quality resistance potion used in Eternal Rest.
Dio said that it is easy to deal with dream conditions if you are aware of them, but in reality, this is not that easy.
In the first place, manufacturing a top-quality resistance potion itself is a task that requires great difficulty.
‘It’s a shame that I raised a character to max level.’
Dio took out his sword, feeling grateful to the Great Old Stumps who generously gave him leaves.
“I think I need to get something from you that I can’t get from Descruger.”
“What…what. “You mean?”
Galletto, sensing a crisis, stumbled and opened his mouth.
It’s amazing that he’s still able to hold on to this level of mental strength.
However, Deathcruger’s dream environment is not just magic that can be endured with just mental strength.
Dio answered Galletto’s question with a grin.
“Experience.”
Sigh!
Dio’s sword was instantly inserted into Galeto’s chest.
However, Dio’s attack was not deep.
This is because Galletto, who was holding on with amazing mental strength, grabbed Dio’s blade with both hands.
“Did you hide this…cowardly…power?”
Galetto speaks, squeezing out all his remaining strength.
Galeto could tell because he received Dio’s attack with murderous intent.
Dio is now much stronger than the last time he unleashed his power.
And this was actually what Galletto felt.
Now that the Centipede Knight has been defeated and Deathcruger is dead, Dio has gained a lot of experience.
‘Did you figure it out in this short moment? After all, five swords are dangerous.’
Dio was appalled by Galletto’s tenacity and sharpness.
I must have been out of my mind because I was in a dream, but I was able to understand the level of strength of the other person in an instant.
Considering Galetto’s level, it doesn’t make total sense that he could resist the dream environment to this extent.
Dio used his sword again to quickly finish off Galeto, as there might be a problem.
But something moved before Dio.
Sigh!
Unlike Dio’s attack, which only wounded him, the shadow blade completely pierced Galetto’s chest.
“Cough!”
Galletto turned around, coughing up blood.
And what he saw was Evelyn’s shadow armor that imitated Dio’s appearance.
Evelyn also took the potion given by Dio and was not affected by the dream environment.
In response, Dio looked into Galetto’s eyes again and opened his mouth.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t keep my promise. But you know what?”
Dio delivered his last words to Galletto, whose eyes were red and bloodshot.
“You like fighting for your own enjoyment? At least there is no such person here.”
thud!
Galletto, who had been pierced through the heart, fell forward.
Galeto Houndstooth, a five-handed sword that longed for battle.
It was a shabby death, unbecoming of someone who was said to be the greatest fighting fanatic on the continent.
* * *
Dio watched the fallen Galetto in silence for a while.
Perhaps Dio might have spared Galetto if he had tried to approach the truth on his side rather than the Luna Church rather than simply fighting.
However, as a result of what I have observed so far, I can see that Galletto cannot be used as his chess piece.
‘Because the person I need is not someone who only asks for personal interests.’
In the case of Prian and Agram, they also accepted Dio’s suggestions or cooperated for their own benefit.
However, his actions after that are completely different from Galletto.
If Prian is appointed as the crown prince, he will generously help Dio and lead the sun god Solari.
If Agram also establishes a kingdom, he will build a temple to the sun.
Or, you could even establish a holy nation.
This is for their own benefit, and coexisting with D.O. is beneficial in many ways, so it is a natural choice for them.
But the case of Galletto is different.
He only seeks to fight for himself.
This may be helpful as a combatant, but it also creates variables where you don’t know where you will end up.
Variables are the most dangerous factor that causes Dio’s plan to go astray.
It is not a good idea for Dio to embrace this and be with Galleto.
So Dio quickly made a decision.
It means to definitely nip the variable lump called Galeto in the bud.
‘I alone am enough of a selfish person.’
Dio turned back with a bitter smile.
Sephia used the last mana contained in ‘Provision of the Sun’ to cast Sanctuary Declaration once again.
It doesn’t matter if Sepia’s mana isn’t enough to wake you up from a dream.
Dio has the highest quality resistance potion left, so what he lacks can be replaced with this.
Hwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
at once the desire to sleep is not easily shaken off?
However, the dream environment has a scary debuff called ‘destruction of the status quo’, and solving it is no different from just having a refreshing sleep.
Therefore, there is no big problem even if you cannot wake up right away.
Thanks to the sepia purifying the surroundings, the dark clouds caused by the dream environment began to gradually disappear.
With some visibility, Agram approached Dio and asked.
“Kkehaam…huu. “Is the fight over?”
“Yes, Descruger’s dreamscape won’t last very long. Please gather the injured together. “Please take care of the prince instead of me.”
The reason why Dio did not take the potion to Prince Prian was simple.
This was because it would not be good for the prince to see him kill Galletto.
Prian is aware that the relationship between the Luna Church and Dio is not good, but they are part of the allied force that defeated the Demon Lord together.
Prion was very likely to perceive the situation itself, where allies were pointing swords at each other in the middle of the battlefield, negatively.
Killing a priest here is a serious crime.
Moreover, the five swords are of very high status among the priests.
Dio needs to maintain a friendly relationship with Prian going forward.
There was no need to show any behavior that would displease him.
“Cleaning up after work is also my specialty. As long as the compensation is generous. But…”
Agram trailed off and pointed his finger behind Dio.
“What does he plan to do?”
High elf Elaine.
She still couldn’t fall asleep, resisting the dream.
Elaine’s arms were trembling as she held on to the bow, but she paid no attention to it and looked at Dio with eyes full of anger.
“I still have something to ask you.”
“If you want to deal with it, you’ll have to do it quickly. “You may be doing it for a great cause, but others may just see it as a murder scene.”
Agram, who was completely on Dio’s side, gave some joking advice.
“I listen deeply.”
Dio grinned at Agram, and Agram turned his back and walked away.
To join Dio’s group who were taking care of the injured earlier.
“Now it’s just the two of us.”
The only people left around are Dio and Elaine.
Dio approached Elaine, who was kneeling on one knee, crouched down to meet her gaze, and opened his mouth.
“Do you think I’m a coward too?”
“….”
Elaine had no response to Dio’s words.
Like Galetto, he was barely holding on with his mental strength.
“I won’t bother making excuses. But your goal was to kill me too, right? “I just acted first to protect myself.”
Dio, who was explaining at length that it was self-defense, looked indifferently at Elaine, who was still silent.
Perhaps thanks to the help of the forest spirit, Elaine was not easily consumed by the dream environment.
But that’s it.
The fact that his movements were restricted, like that of Galletto, who died before him, did not change.
“Why didn’t I kill you right away, unlike Galleto?”
Dio brought up the questions Elaine might have had on her behalf.
Now is the best chance to deal with the Luna Church from him.
“….”
It was natural for Elaine to be genuinely curious about the story Dio told.
However, Dio slowly got up from his seat, as if he had no intention of telling this directly.
“Just wait.”
Alain, who was barely able to speak out of his dream, raised his arms to grab Dio.
In response, Dio still walked backwards slowly without answering, and along with this, another sound of footsteps was heard in Elaine’s ears.
Jumbles –
Footsteps heard on the rugged land of the devil’s land.
Why?
The reason why Elaine feels familiar with the simple sound of bee steps.
Saaaaaak –
A figure appeared from a dark cloud covered in a dream environment.
At this, Elaine widened her eyes as if she couldn’t believe it.
Is what I see before my eyes a dream shown by a dream environment?
Otherwise, Elaine shouldn’t stay like this right now.
He had to tear the enemy of that clan to death with his own hands right now.
“This traitor!!”
For a moment, Elaine’s ferocious cry, having overcome the dream environment, rang out in the demonic realm.
Despite Elaine’s anger, Crassus did not say anything.
Because I understand.
Because I fully understand the feelings she and her people have towards her for destroying the World Tree.
“sorry.”
All Crassus could say to Elaine was an apology.
It is an apology for hiding the truth from everyone in order to complete the World Tree’s mission and for leaving Elaine’s younger sister alone.
