Chapter 279

279 Fire Vortex (5)

“Somehow you thought it was supposed to be, that’s—!”

Uh, I think this was a seizure button somehow.

Before the conversation got too long, he stopped talking and changed the topic.

Feedback to each other because we can do it later.

“Oh, so what’s next? What should I watch out for?”

Saying that, he hurriedly stuck to Stormgash and held out his shield forward. Then Raven had no choice but to stop scolding me and continued explaining.

“The next ability is [Dragonmaek]. The ground turns red when used… … . Oh now! Avoid Mr. Yandel!!”

Stormgash’s second active skill [Dragon Vein].

Woo-woo-woo!

A marker appears beneath the subject, followed by a burst of air shortly after.

just like this

Push woo woo-!

Afterwards, I almost got hit by writing it all of a sudden.

“Everyone get away! Soon there will be a [vortex] in the hole.”

Anyway, [Dragon Vein] is characterized by not only a powerful instantaneous deal, but also a [vortex] at the point where there is a hole afterwards.

For reference, the name and effect used by the middle boss, Queen Siren, match perfectly… … .

Whoo woo woo woo!

If you get hit by that, you will be in the air until your allies rescue you, and you will lose MP in proportion to that time.

Well, if it’s my weight, Airborne is immune, but… … .

‘Still, you lose MP.’

Must be absolutely avoided.

Especially if you’re not a heavy kid like me.

“Everyone, don’t stand together and fall apart!”

The first dragon veins were created around it, and the difficulty of the battle increased dramatically. In the midst of this, he had to avoid even the vortex, so the radius of action was reduced.

However, there is an easy solution for this pattern as well.

“From now on, I will fight while moving!”

Just move your seat.

After all, there are only these cubs left on this island.

In fact, the whole island becomes a boss room.

There is no reason not to utilize a widely given field.

‘… … In fact, this method may not be useful for a long time.’

This guy is one of the tricky things in a situation where deals are scarce. If you continue to use [Dragon Vein], eventually the map will become narrow at some point.

But in the meantime… … .

“uh? Why is the sea here… … .”

Due to the nature of Farune Island, after the beginning of the fourth wave, the sea level gradually rises and eventually all but the center of the island is submerged.

“Mr. Yandel! It’s a big deal! The water is getting hotter! Uh, what do I do?”

what do you do what do you do

You just have to keep moving and fighting.

“Maintain your formation as it is and head to the center!”

Fortunately, no one questioned my instructions.

They didn’t come up with a better way just because they were them.

「Stormgarsh has cast [Roar of Tyrant].」

Anyway, in the midst of fighting and moving like that, Stormgash used new skills.

“Ersina-sama! That’s what I said before! Come on clean up!”

Although it decreases in proportion to the magic resistance or mental value, it is a crazy wide-area [Roar of Tyrant] that feeds a whopping ‘stun’ in a 10m radius for up to 2 seconds.

Lightly hit the counter with the priest’s purification.

「Stormgarsh has cast [Blood of the Storm].」

Berserker with temporary surges in regeneration and physical stats?

“Everyone stay away!”

I just got through it all and survived.

Instead, there were holes in the shield and armor, and furthermore, all over the body… … .

That’s enough if you can stand it with the priest’s heel.

‘Equipment… … . I’ll break some money to fix it later.’

It would be a lie if I said I wasn’t upset, but considering that I’m on a level 3 monster raid, it’s worth it.

Cancer, life is more important than money.

“Stamp your feet! Everyone get off!”

Stormgash used the four skills alternately and over and over again, and as time went on, his teammates became proficient in his pattern.

But it’s too early to be reassured.

He has three more skills he hasn’t used yet.

‘Damn 3rd grade.’

This is the crucial difference between the 3rd and 4th grades.

The basic stats, as well as the number of skills they have, are significantly different.

In addition, monsters of this level not only have skills that come out of essence, but also have unique abilities.

For example, something like vampire black magic.

‘He said that was a weapon.’

In the game, critical, accuracy, evasion, defense success rate, etc. A ‘weapon skill’ that had stat corrections in many battle items.

Stormgash had a high level of weapon skill.

Is that so?

‘You can use the window once.’

The spear stabbing on the subject of monsters is very scary.

Do I have to say that it is not just pushing with force, but it feels like a mixture of some sort of trick?

‘Anyway, I’ll start writing the rest of the pattern when I run out of stamina… … .’

“Mr. Yandel, did you hear me? It’s all dangerous when he starts using that ability. I have to think of a way somehow… … !”

uh, screaming.

I’ve already thought about it.

As soon as the explanation was over, it would look suspicious if a countermeasure was taken, so I just waited.

Plan A and Plan B.

Again, there are two plans.

The best is A, and the best is B.

The only problem is… … .

‘variable.’

This plan is impossible to eat.

We will fight intensified battles that could not be experienced with low-grade monsters in the future.

and… … .

Someone with no luck gets hurt.

Or you might die.

I just wish

I know it’s selfishness wrapped in altruism.

However, if someone has to suffer misfortune.

‘Patsran, Ersina, Nevarce, Amelia.’

please be not us.

“Hey, there’s nowhere to run now!”

When I once again carve out my priorities.

Patsran shouted.

aa-!

Water was flowing in the direction it was moving.

It was impossible to escape by boat.

Hundreds of tornadoes have been erupting around the island since the first wave ended.

‘… … This is enough to say that more than half of them are submerged.’

I don’t have much time now.

“Move over there!”

I led the group towards the center of the island on the largest possible return route.

And I asked my colleagues for one thing.

“You must do as much damage as possible to him.”

It will be difficult, but we will fight harder.

“Do you have any plans?”

Amelia asked, and without hesitation I explained the plan I had put together.

“… … Did you come up with such a plan after only hearing about the wizard?”

At my explanation, the male prosecutor put on a strange expression.

“But will it be? From what I hear, it seems like a far-fetched and risky plan.”

The goddess expressed concern.

and… … .

“Bjorn is a great warrior! You know how to fight better than anyone!”

Ainar screamed, not missing a chance to brag about me to others.

“In addition… Are you the only one who wants to play a role like that?”

Novel from https://readwn.com

Misha muttered something sadly and said that she would be with her as well.

Of course I didn’t allow it.

Aside from loving Misha, this was the most efficient staffing.

If so, how about the evaluation of Raven, the pronoun of efficiency?

“It’s not a bad plan. Especially when it comes to preparing for failure.”

Yeah, you’re ok too.

“It’s not a voice that speaks nonsense. All right, do as you say.”

After that, even Amelia, who I was most worried about, agreed to my plan and lightened the burden.

That was a little surprising.

I never thought that I would accept the role so readily.

Amelia said something unexpected when she raised her doubts slightly.

“Your words have power.”

huh?

“I see what you mean.”

Patsran, who had been arguing with Amelia the whole time, nodded.

“You didn’t despair at all when you said that a level 3 monster came out.”

It’s just that I’ve known for a long time… … .

“Perhaps those who decided to follow you that day felt the same way.”

The priestess also mentioned what happened in the first floor of the Noark War.

“Bjorn son of Yandel. A giant who opens the way ahead of anyone else, and a person born with the mission of the times.”

Even so, I don’t know.

It’s just heartbreaking.

It’s like I didn’t show anything sublime in front of them… …

“With no certainty, I was convinced to see you safely reunited with your colleagues. Your fate is upon you.”

Ha, that’s why they’re religious.

“… … What do you mean?”

sigh comes out

Be that as it may, the Amman hero or whatever, I know my essence. Just a moment ago, even if they died, we were begging inwardly that we would be safe.

By the way… … .

‘Why are you doing this to me?’

The warrior’s heart beats heavily.

Is it the barbarian’s instinct to live up to expectations?

“Behel—la ah ah ah ah!!”

Alright, let’s fight.

Before feeling a greater sense of responsibility to them, he gave himself up to battle and cleared his head.

「Stormgarsh has cast [Eye of the Storm].」

Again, this

“Everyone get away!”

As soon as the whirlpool hit it, it started to hold onto it.

Whee!

A strong storm that is difficult to distinguish even an inch ahead.

I suddenly had a thought.

After all, the wind is just the wind.

Even if I pray for a hundred days, I cannot decide who will die and who will survive.

Aww-!

It is like this vortex.

What will be at the end of the wind that rides and flows, only depends on the sky.

“Mr. Yandel, there is no place to retreat now.”

After blocking the [Eye of the Storm] pattern once more, the center of the island appeared.

An empty space that seems to be hidden in the bushes.

A white stone tower in the middle.

Dense bloodstains scattered across the ground.

Just yesterday, there was a place where we spent a lot of time praying for everyone to be safe.

“Water is rushing in from all directions!”

The entire island has sunk except for this one, and now the sea can be seen everywhere.

「Stormgarsh has cast [Dragon Vein].」

Coming here, [a vortex] spewed out of the hole Stormgash had made in the ground, mixed with the water and swirled around us.

aa

Perhaps if it was a game, I would have been satisfied.

It’s a majestic atmosphere suitable for a boss fight.

Koo-!

Stormgash came right in front of us and smashed the stick of his trident to the floor.

「Stormgarsh has cast [Rain Rain].」

One of the three remaining skills that starts to be used when HP drops below 70%.

‘Okay, blood management seems to be going well.’

It’s time to see the win.

***

[rainy season].

One of the three core skills of Stormgash.

The effect is simple.

thug, thug.

it is raining.

For reference, if you are hit by the rain, your regeneration and overall physical level will increase significantly, while your characters will receive various debuffs.

Of course, this is a minor issue.

Because the real thing is in the next pattern.

“What are you all doing? Do as you plan!”

With my shout as the starting point, everyone who restricted the rear rushed towards him like crazy.

This is also true for me.

[Koo-!!]

Unlike before, I really did not spare myself and ran towards him.

Well, this was our plan

This judge’s board.

As soon as you use [Rain Rain], hit all the deals and kill him at once.

So there is no reason to buy yourself.

It means that the more injuries I accumulate on my body, the easier it is for my colleagues to put the deal.

Fu-wook!

Soon, Uncle Bear’s arrow pierced its hard shell and dug deep.

Yes, the insides wouldn’t hurt that much, but… … .

「Abman Urikfrit has cast [Hungry Claw].」

That arrow is an arrow with a continuous deal.

As the number of embedded arrows increases, the burden on him will increase.

Then it was Misha’s turn.

「Misha Karlstein has cast [Enhance].」

「Misha Karlstein has cast [Cold Condensation].」

As always, Misha increased [Frost Condensation] and [Enhanced] to increase the Frost Sensitivity value, a factor of Frost Damage.

In addition, the active powers of the spirit beast contracted with the Frost Spirit ring and the glacial beast Skadia were also opened.

「Misha Karlstein has cast [Absolute Zero].」

[Absolute zero].

The second power that was newly acquired by eating dozens of bottles of ‘Beast Blood’ after obtaining the royal reward.

「The character’s first hit unconditionally causes ‘Freeze’ with the status abnormality.」

At the same time as the sword was covered with white frost, Misha swung her sword at him.

The target was the right arm of the man holding the trident.

supportive.

His forearms froze.

Of course, the resistance is high and the body is so large that the only thing that became ‘freeze’ was about the arm… … .

First of all, it’s all a buildup.

「Misha Karlstein has cast [Ice Crushing].」

Active skill that increases damage to enemies in ‘freeze’ state. In addition, the 5th grade skill obtained as a royal reward was added.

「Misha Karlstein has cast [Mutation].」

「Temporarily converts agility values to strength values.」

A skill that Misha, who lacks strength, can use it in a useful way until the second half.

Quang-!

Novel from https://readwn.com

Misha’s second blade, a dual-wield swordsman, struck the frozen one’s arm.

However, was it just the shell that was frozen?

supportive.

Fragments splattered like ice breaking, but his thick arms were intact. Seriously, it wouldn’t be weird if you cut the arm of a level 3 monster with a single knife just because you poured it all out.

“I’m next!”

As soon as it went mad and aimed at Misha, Ainar rushed at her and slashed her sword at her shattered wrist.

However… … .

Kak-!

Even when the cutting force increased rapidly with [Wild Control], it was insufficient. He dug deep into his flesh, but soon got caught in a hard bone.

[Kooh-!!]

“Ah, Ainar!!”

It rotated its body as if protecting its arms, and struck Ainar with its tail.

‘Shit.’

It seems like it would be difficult to get up after being hit by Ainar… … .

This is the scary point of a level 3 monster.

Even if it’s not a skill, every single hit is fatal… … .

「Stormgarsh has cast [Eye of the Storm].」

Nimiral, are you going to use this again?

Tadat.

As I dashed forward, my comrades backed away.

And in that state… … .

“Behel—raa!!”

Hold even if you die soon.

After 5 seconds, which felt exceptionally long, the whirlwind was lifted.

“Uncle, get out of here!”

Oh, now you are ready too.

I quickly moved to the side so as not to disturb Erwen.

That was the moment.

「Erwen Fornacci di Tercia has cast [Focused Shot].」

Rank 4 Essence obtained as a royal reward.

Novel from https://readwn.com

MP is consumed exponentially in proportion to the casting time, and the skill that increases damage by that amount has been completed.

But did you hit all the MPs?

The momentum of the halo on the arrowhead is terrifying—

Whit-!

At that moment, Erwen released the protest, and arrows were shot like a flash of light.

aa-!

The point of impact is the man’s upper abdomen.

It seems like he was aiming for a place where his heart might be.

The head is also a vital point, but it’s hard to hit.

[Koo—!!]

Stormgash let out a roar as if in pain.

But moving was fine.

Unfortunately, the arrow didn’t seem to pierce the heart.

It wasn’t too sad or anything.

Even if you hit it, it would have been difficult to kill it in one shot. Level 3 monsters don’t die instantly if their heart is pierced… … .

“uh?”

It was then that for the first time, Stormgash took the first motion he saw.

「Stormgarsh has cast [Stormcall].」

It was a skill used when HP was 40%.
