Episode 104. Demon Crusher Test

Since ghouls move slowly, they are the best opponents to deal with in a very agile position.

‘But I didn’t expect to defeat them all…’

What I wanted was to slow the ghoul’s approach as much as possible by using the Discharge skill every cooldown.

This is because it is difficult to deal with ghouls among skeleton opponents.

Of course, with the firepower of our party, there’s nothing we can’t deal with.

‘Should I say the biggest beneficiary of my cooking buff? The most efficient one might be Lin…’

Perhaps because Rin doesn’t use any special equipment, she shows superior stats compared to players of the same level.

In addition to that, the maximum HP and SP figures for each stat are enormous, and even the attack power amplification multiplier is at a different level.

Isn’t Rin strong enough to be called a tolerable boss monster with the addition of a la carte buff?

“Okay, once you’ve finished collecting the loot, head straight to the intercession room.”

I’m so surprised, how can the party members react?

However, the time to explain Rin one by one is just a luxury for us now.

I had no intention of doing that in the first place.

From noble mtl dot com

That’s why I said to proceed with the attack immediately.

It seemed like they wanted to hear some explanation, but in the end, everyone seemed to agree.

“Ah, yes… I get it.”

“Yes, let’s go. Now I don’t know. Anyway, Laura-sister will give you a hint.”

“Go!”

Twisted Catacombs consists of five large rooms connected to the rest of the passages, except for the straight road leading to the dungeon entrance centered at the fork in the middle.

Among them, there is one mid-boss in each of the four rooms, and if you defeat all of these mid-bosses, the boss appears in the last room.

‘It’s not a very popular dungeon.’

Since there are no distant monsters except for the mid-boss, it can be said to be a relatively easy dungeon among nightmare dungeons.

But as easy as it is, the level of loot is significantly lower than other dungeons, so people don’t like it very much.

Because of that, even now I can’t see any party other than ours.

‘But… That’s because I don’t know.’

“As I said beforehand, we won’t be dealing with mid-bosses.”

“Huh?”

“If I don’t deal with the middle boss… I guess the final boss won’t appear either?”

“Well, that’s not it. There are ways, so trust me and follow me. Just trust me.”

“Believe me?”

“…?”

“Melissa believes in you!”

“Me, me too… If you don’t play weird pranks like last time…”

Perhaps it was because they had already shown it a little while ago, Rachel and Michael were puzzled but did not refute it.

Above all, none of the party members have ever had their HP reduced below 70%, let alone in a dangerous situation.

In a situation like this, it makes no sense to complain to the party leader.

“Now, let’s go to the room on the left.”

“Yeah… But, the golem you saw will appear here. What should I do? Drive it again?”

“It’s okay. Drive everything. All the way to the entrance to the room.”

“But the golem I saw…”

“I’m going to deal with him separately, so ignore it and run.”

“Are you alone?”

“Yeah. So, don’t use provocation around the Golem you saw.”

Michael still looks puzzled at Lemon’s conversation with me.

‘It’s only now that I’m making that face.’

“Haaagh!”

Lemon ran across the long passage leading to the first room.

And then, I chased after him and shot down the mace with all my might at the huge bone golem standing in the middle.

Bang!

‘It’s so… Numb?’

It is three to four times larger than ghouls and skeletons, and its entire body is made up of several layers of bones, making it very hard.

His HP is five times as much.

If this guy gets stuck in the middle of the mob that Moll is hunting, it will cause various problems.

Getting hit all by yourself with a long-awaited wide-area attack, or pushing other mobs to the side and taking up all the space to interfere with melee dealers’ attacks, etc.

Because of this, it is necessary to take out this guy separately and hunt it, but usually a bowman or a wizard takes on this role.

But.

‘I’ll have to try it soon. Me too.’

Today, I have no intention of giving up this role.

Because I want to try out the newly purchased weapon.

* * *

When everyone except me was dealing with skeletons and ghouls like we did in the entrance passage.

Kugoong!

I started a one-on-one battle with a Bone Golem that was huge enough to fill the aisle.

Bang!

As befits a large elite mob, all of its attacks have a strong knockback effect.

Unless you are a shield knight, you should be prepared to be trampled without moving on the day you even brush against it.

‘Where!’

But his attack pattern isn’t that difficult.

After the right hand, the left hand.

Then the right foot.

It is possible to hunt without getting hit if you pay attention to the occasional reverse of the order of the hands or the abnormal attack using the opposite foot.

‘But the important thing now is not to evade, but to attack.’

I settled down in a place where the party members were not harmed, and immediately switched the weapon I was wearing.

[You have equipped the Demon Grinder.]

[Healing power is reduced by 20%.]

A penalty applied immediately upon wearing.

However, it is neither itchy nor itchy.

[When attacking with this weapon, ‘Skill: Divine Explosion’ is activated with a low probability.]

Because the side effect is much better.

And add to that.

[Used ‘Demon Grinder Exclusive Skill: Blasphemy’.]

– For 1 minute, the held intelligence level is converted into strength.

– For 1 minute, the destructive power of all physical attacks using Demon Grinder is greatly increased.

– Greatly increases the chance of a Nova Explosion for 1 minute.

Intelligence: 1 (-677)

Strength: 1578 (+677)

His strength stat, which had risen to 901 due to the cooking buff effect, rose to 1578 in an instant.

‘Current physical attack power is 17,000…’

That’s a really surprising number.

It won’t be easy to raise even a runaway warrior class using a berserker’s mask to this level.

‘It would be possible if there was a la carte dish I sold.’

Yes, berserker mode has a duration of 3 minutes and a cooldown of 30 minutes.

In contrast, Blasphemy has a cooldown of only 30 seconds.

Since the duration is 1 minute, it is practically possible to maintain this state without any time penalty.

‘Even though it costs a lot of mana…’

You can get mana by drinking potions.

Thanks to the fresh fruit juice, the SPR level increased, and as a result, the maximum SP increased as well as the mana potion efficiency.

“Now, let’s see how long it lasts, you bastard!”

Whiik-!

A powerfully swung mace.

Puck!

It landed a powerful hit on his knee.

Puck! Puff! Furbuck!

Hitting straight away.

The spike-shaped mace’s head pounded hard here and there on his bones.

Broken bone powder that could be seen fluttered, and as the attacks continued, cracks began to appear here and there in the bones that made up the bastard.

And that moment!

Kwakwang!

[A nova explosion has been triggered. Deals additional damage equal to 7 times the previous physical damage!]

A dazzling flash blocked my vision, and a powerful shock flowed into the fingertips holding the mace.

‘This is it! This is it!’

Exciting hand taste.

It was more than I expected.

“It’s still a long way off!”

It is still too early to be satisfied.

“Wow!”

At the same time as avoiding his kick, I attacked his knee repeatedly.

Furbuck! Puff! Fall out!

The sound of bones breaking follows.

‘Is it because of the destructive power option?’

His right knee started to have problems.

“What is it? You don’t do foot attacks anymore? No, you can’t?”

I don’t know if it’s because of the feeling of hitting or the taste of my hand, but I’m starting to get excited.

His foot attack pattern disappeared because of his right leg, which was on the verge of breaking in two, and I aimed for that timing and fired a series of attacks.

Kwajajak-

As a result, his right leg was completely destroyed.

Koogung-

The wind knocked him off balance and he was unable to continue his attacks.

I immediately stepped on the fallen guy’s back and started hitting him right in the back of the head.

Puck- Puck- Puck-

The dull sound repeated for a while, and the giant skeleton gourd, which had been as hard as a rock, shattered after not holding on for long.

[You have defeated an elite Bone Golem.]

“Whoa…”

Only 2 minutes.

It took only 2 minutes to single-handedly defeat a monster with tolerable mid-boss level stamina.

Not another class, but the Priest class.

‘If this were still a game, I might have been criticized for cheating even more than during the Monk incident…’

Looking at the mace in my hand, I was very satisfied.

As if all of that was revealed in his expression, the guys watching from the side started clapping.

It’s embarrassing, so please stop.

“Wow, the old man was so cool! But, what’s that flash in the middle?”

“Oh, that? It’s just a weapon effect.”

“Wow… Is there such a thing? I’m envious… Can I buy something like that if I save money?”

“You idiot. That’s a weapon worth 1.1 Billion at auction.”

“I know, stupid!”

“What are you buying knowingly? Those clothes and weapons were all bought by you.”

“I’m going to save hard from now on!?”

Michael is sending a suspicious look behind the two girls who are bickering as always.

Rachel thinks she’s giving up now that she thinks she does.

“I was really surprised. A priest… To defeat a golem he saw alone…”

“You know. It’s a buff sucker. There’s also a weapon sucker.”

“Such… A sword… How?”

“Well, that’s all.”

“In addition to buffs, cooking, super powerful pets, and even dealing…”

Why, what else do you want to say?

“I think I was mistaken.”

“A misunderstanding?”

“Yes. I regret what I said earlier.”

Michael said that before he entered the dungeon, he reflected on what he said he knew about clearing this dungeon.

He said his field of vision was narrow.

He said that it seems that it was a big mistake that he had been focusing on solo play until now.

“Could you please make me… A permanent member of this party?”

“Huh? Ah? That, then me too! Put me in too!”

He started to raise his voice, followed by Rachel.
