Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 96
Episode 96:
Strangely enough, Evelyn’s shadow radiated light and instantly illuminated the battlefield.
At the same time, he grabbed the feet of the demon beasts and hindered the movement of those strengthened by [Lunar Eclipse].
There was a way to defeat multiple demon beasts with a powerful attack, but the mana consumed was a burden on Evelyn.
Dio expected the battle to be a bit long anyway and was okay with it being long, so he instructed Evelyn from the beginning.
Just focus on binding and weakening the magical beast.
In any case, Roberto and Dio’s own attacks were enough to kill the demonic beasts in front of him.
It was much more efficient for Evelyn to support the attack rather than join it.
It would be difficult to manage mana to maintain this, but Dio believed that she could do it.
And as Dio responded, Evelyn’s shadow held back the magical beasts like a swamp, drastically weakening their combat abilities.
‘It’s a shame Evelyn’s equipment is lacking.’
If they had been armed with better equipment, they could have helped not only the flanks here, but also the knights and paladins.
But now was not the time to lament so regretfully.
Dio ran towards the army of demonic beasts held by Evelyn.
His physical condition was much lighter than usual.
Was he exhilarated by the battle for his life?
Of course not.

Dio is currently doped with all kinds of potions.
The consumable potions that I had collected from the warehouse I had visited so far.
Since the quantity was limited, these potions were saved for the moment when they were most needed.
As long as it is clear that the opponent is Luave, it will not be enough to use every means and every item.
‘Shall we go?’
As I first mentioned, I left behind Ates, who was in charge of rear support, and followed Roberto and Evelyn, who went first, and rushed at the demon beasts.
Slap- Wow!
The silver arming sword and mace held in both hands of Dio cut off or crushed the hell hound’s head.
The average level of the magic beast army was around 200.
Even without doping the potion, Dio would have no trouble dealing with them, but since there were so many of them, he needed to pay attention to his stamina while fighting.
Rather than firing off big skills from the beginning, be as efficient as possible.
A range rather than a single unit.
Dio, who was lightly warming up, aimed at the cursed stone golem that was being escorted by a hell hound.
“Roberto! “Get back!”
Among the group, Roberto was at the forefront of the mob.
Dio briefly pushed Roberto, who was attracting the aggro of the demonic beasts, back.
Boom –
Dio’s sword, shining silver, swung towards the demonic beasts gathered around the stone golem.
Forgotten Swordsmanship [Island].
Kwagwagwagwagwak!
The wave of energy fired from Dio’s sword swept away all the magical beasts in a straight line.
And the released power of the sun hit the golem, which was easy to hit thanks to its huge size.
Fuuuuuuu!
The forgotten sword skill [Island] is an evolved skill from [Bok], so it can double the power of the explosion.
Crumbling –
The golem’s body collapsed like a building being demolished due to the explosion of the [Island], and other demonic beasts around it were also engulfed in flames.
[Mana consumption increases by 100% due to the effect of the lunar eclipse.]
[Only 50% of the effect of the lunar eclipse due to light is applied.]
Dio looked at the system window and briefly clicked his tongue at the annoying effect of the lunar eclipse.
‘Evelyn is trying her best, but in the end, her mana consumption is higher than usual. ‘I need to adjust it a little more.’
Although he had taken a mana regeneration potion, it was difficult to completely avoid the effects of the lunar eclipse even with doping like this.
Still, I have extra mana potions so don’t worry.
Plus…
“Where!”
Dio fired the [Island] towards the group of demonic beasts that were regrouping once again.
Kwagwagwagwagwa!
Once again, a dazzling light swept through the demonic beasts, and they moved ceaselessly in search of the dense demonic beasts.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
As Dio and his companions continued their activities, the momentum of the demonic army that was attacking the flanks was seen to be noticeably decreasing.
“Woo-”
They said they would control it, but the number of demonic beasts is still putting pressure on them.
Dio threw back the potion bottle he had just drank and looked at the knights and paladins fighting the main force of the demon beast.
Luave also realized that the flank attack had failed and did not send additional support to the troops that had strengthened the flank.
‘Then what will he do next…’
The moment Dio thinks about Luave’s next tactic.
Coo coo coo coo –
The ground shakes and the piled up corpses of demonic beasts suddenly begin to gather in one place.
The torn flesh of the demonic beasts gathered together to form a single shape, becoming increasingly larger as time passed.
“Coooooooo!”
The haphazardly mixed corpses of the demonic beasts far exceeded the size of the Grave Elephant and the Cursed Golem.
Pow!
And a new demon beast was born from the pile of corpses.
“Koooooooo!”
Based on the body of an ogre, the head of a lion, the ivory of an elephant, and the scales of a lizard.
It’s like a monster created by mixing all kinds of demons and animals.
The appearance of the chimera shook the battlefield once again.
“Um…what is that monster!”
“Chimera, calm down!”
“You bastard! “Concentrate your attack!”
Kwagwagwagwa!
Black flames spewing out from the chimera’s mouth.
The paladins, surprised by this, hurriedly put up their shields.
“It’s a poisonous flame! “Priests use shields again!”
Conrad, who realized the seriousness of the situation, drew his sword and joined the paladins against the Chimera.
“Shoot! “Pour it all out!”
“Kill him before he spews more poison!”
Telzia also not only protected the Paladin along with the priests, but also fired magic at the Chimera.
Burbububbung!
The barrage of condensed light exploded the moment it touched the chimera.
-Koooooo!
However, the priests’ attack only briefly slowed down the chimera’s movement and had no further effect.
Perhaps because it was getting on their nerves, the chimera’s angry paw struck the paladins’ shield.
The Paladins also put up their shields, but perhaps because they were half melted trying to block the poisonous breath, they barely managed to block them with their teeth clenched.
Quagwagwagwang!
“The front line is down!”
“Apply!”
The Bertio Knights hurriedly tried to maintain the front line on behalf of the Paladins, but the Chimera had already crossed the line.
The chimera that broke through the front line was not the problem.
The problem was the situation after the front line was breached.
Through this, numerous legions of demonic beasts entered the interior of Ox.
In that case, the numerically disadvantaged Oaks Allied Forces could never handle it.
Knowing this, Calco and Konrad took command to somehow stop the Chimera.
However, the momentum of the Chimera, which was like the decisive battle weapon of the Demonic Beast Corps, showed no signs of abating.
A moment of desperation.
“Everyone step back!”
Dio, who was watching this whole situation, shouted.
* * *
Chimera of Luave.
Dio also knew Luave’s next move after the failed flank attack.
This is also Luave’s fixed tactical pattern.
If the surprise attack fails, release the chimera at the location where the troops are most concentrated.
This was a fighting method that showed Luave’s tendencies rather than a particularly strategic one.
A chimera reborn using a corpse.
It is a tactic to break the morale of the enemy in the face of overwhelming inaction.
It’s as if no matter how hard you struggle, it’s in the palm of my hand.
-Karrrrrrrrrr!
-Scream!
With the appearance of the Chimera, an army of demonic beasts focuses on Dio and his group.
It was not about trying again on a side where they had failed.
Luave’s idea is to tie up Dio and his friends who can stop the Chimera.
‘No way.’
However, Dio already had a weapon ready to kill the chimera.
“Roberto!”
Dio called Roberto, and he broke the neck of the Black Lizard he was holding, then put his hands together and made a footrest towards Dio.
Crash!
Dio also ran as fast as he could after cutting down the demonic beasts around him, and in an instant he was on top of Roberto’s gathered hands.
“now!”
“Ha!”
At Dio’s signal, Roberto raised his arm as high as he could and threw Dio.
‘Chimera’s level is 350. To finish it off with one blow…’
Of course, that chimera is not Luave’s final weapon.
Luave’s true final weapon is still far from being released, but right now, the priority is to kill that chimera on the front lines.
‘Even though I knew and prepared, it was like this.’
Dio jumped high into the sky and took out a long spear from his inventory.
The polearm itself is not a very good item.
Even if Dio uses all his strength, the polearm will not pierce the chimera’s skin.

Skill [Blessing of the Sun] obtained from Solari.
This skill, which can only strengthen two items for 7 days, turned Dio’s scroll order book into a fraudulent item.
It is not enough to simply increase the 25% figure.
Just because it contains the power of the sun, if the opponent is a magical beast, its power can be at least 5 times greater.
Dio, who flew high with Roberto’s help, aimed at the rampaging chimera alone.
The target is his head.
Since two top-level scrolls have been used, the polearm Dio is holding is no longer an ordinary weapon.
“Ha!”
pop!
The long spear escaped from Dio’s hand as if a cannonball was fired, splitting the air with an explosion sound.
Throw in!
The pike flew in an orange line in the hazy darkness.
The javelin pierced the chimera’s head exactly, and the movement of the chimera that was hit directly stopped completely.
The power of the sun seeps into that pierced brain.
Flash!
Kwagwagwagwagwang!
The chimera’s head exploded in an instant and its huge body fell backwards.
Coo!
“Waaaa!!”
When the chimera, which seemed insurmountable to confront, was killed with a single blow, the morale of the soldiers who were blocking it rose immediately.
“…oh my god. “It’s huge.”
Kalko and Konrad opened their mouths in exclamation for a moment, then came to their senses.
Then, using this momentum, he began to push back the demonic beasts that had crossed the front line with Chimera.
“Whoa.”
Dio landed on the ground and sighed.
I prepared only one long spear that I just used.
Although it was a situation where not even a single mistake could be tolerated, thanks to concentrating all of one’s nerves and strength, the chimera was successfully defeated.
“You are amazing! “Dia!”
“Are you not planning on becoming a knight?”
The Bertio knights near the place where Dio landed gave generous praise.
“Well, with this much.”
“Let’s replenish our stamina for a moment. “We will take care of this.”
Dio nodded lightly at the knight’s words.
Luave’s invasion is not over yet.
The current battle is only phase 1.
If Dio fought any longer than now, problems could arise during the next battle.
‘The knights and paladins will handle the legion with the dead chimera without difficulty.’
Dio still looked at the dark sky.
It felt like a lot of time had passed since it was a hectic battle, but the sky was still dark due to Luave’s lunar eclipse.
‘There’s still a long way to go.’
Even though numerous demon beasts were defeated, Luave has not yet appeared.
He truly cannot be a man with a heavy butt.
Well, it’s natural that Luave only appears after the second wave.
Anyway, if you catch the Chimera in the second wave, a new enemy will appear.
Because there are not only demonic beasts under his command.
From the beginning, Luave is an 8th circle archmage and the leader of the warlocks.
Hwii-ing –
An army of demonic beasts that stopped advancing for a moment.
The Allied forces of Oaks cheered as they sensed victory, but their cheers did not last long.
hook! And the cold wind begins to extinguish the torches.
“What is a torch?”
“I sense a lot of demon energy! Be careful!”
“Everyone, don’t relax!”
Calco and Konrad, who had heard Dio’s story to some extent, gathered the soldiers without losing their nerve.
Dozens of human figures appeared among the demonic beasts as if they had nothing to do with this.
It was the appearance of warlocks dressed entirely in black robes.
