281 Angry Drift (1)

[Priest of the Storm].

There are three main effects of this skill.

1. Temporarily invincible.

Until the skill gauge is fully charged, the caster becomes immune to damage.

In some ways, it’s a high-value skill.

Even if it’s impossible to move in that state, the invincible plane is invincible. Super play was possible if used well in the game.

2. Increase defense level.

After casting, the caster acquires a huge amount of defense stats evenly. When this effect is combined with the temporary invincibility, it is not unreasonable to see it as a top-notch survival skill.

But, if you ask if that’s the end, it’s not.

3. Wide-area.

[Priest of Storms] A wide-area weapon that spreads around the caster until the mode ends.

The damage dealt is too high to be considered a simple survival period.

As the best defense is an attack.

“Coming soon.”

The moment I crouched down with the shield raised below my eyes, the barrier of storms built around it slowly expanded its radius and enveloped the entire Sanctuary.

“100%.”

A change in the effect that means that all skill charging is over.

aa-!

A strong wind blows around your body.

It’s not as hard to tell even an inch ahead as when you entered [Eye of the Storm].

However… … .

“The character is taking damage.”

“The character is taking damage.”

“The character is taking damage… … .”

“… … .”

As if the blade was hidden in the raging wind, something in the form of a white shining dagger strikes the armor and my body.

That’s why I sent my colleagues out first.

Because it’s impossible to hit this type of wide-area machine with a shield instead.

Kak kak, kak kak, kak! Quang!

Arms, back, shoulders, waist, thighs, calves.

The shock was transmitted simultaneously from various points to the extent that it was impossible to designate a specific part.

It feels like dozens of people from all directions are constantly throwing snowballs filled with stones.

‘Well, that’s about it.’

How much is my physical resistance and resistance magic?

It’s not a one-shot dildo, and it doesn’t take much damage from these stacked tic deals.

So, what about Amelia?

He probably doesn’t have as high physical resistance as me… … .

‘What is he?’

Surprisingly, he was avoiding them one by one.

Wow, what agility level do you have to have such dynamic vision and reflexes?

‘I said I could do it, so I told him to come, but that’s the real deal.’

Oh, of course it wasn’t.

After all, why am I?

“You look busy.”

Amelia did not answer my words.

Are you telling me to focus on chatting time?

[Koo-!!]

Soon, the severed-armed shell monster roared more menacingly than ever and rushed towards me.

This is the effectiveness of the ‘threat level’.

If it were a human who used that skill, he would have tried to get rid of that Amelia over there.

aa-!

As soon as it catches its formidable body with a shield, its body is pushed back.

However, there is bound to be a gap in such a large action.

Fu-wook!

Amelia thrust the dagger from behind.

Due to the rapid increase in the number of defenses, it did not penetrate as deeply as before.

and… … .

‘I don’t even flinch anymore.’

Even after being hit with a knife, he swung his front paw at me without a moment’s hesitation.

Whoo-!

This is the tricky part of the [Priest of the Storm] mod.

As if proving the truth that the best attack is defense.

Raising the defense value means that the attack power increases.

You can focus on attacking the time you spend on defense.

Tadat.

He quickly evaded to the side and widened the distance.

If it had been a while ago, the timing would have been [Dragon Vein] or [Eye of the Storm].

There was no need to worry about such a follow-up this time.

Because this world is a heartless place where you have to give up something to grab something.

[Priest of the Storm] also has a penalty.

[Kooh-!]

yes, shout

‘Anyway, you can’t use your skills right now.’

Skill cannot be used.

Stormgash who came in this phase must fight only by hand-to-hand combat and that wide-area weapon.

The in-game duration is about 10 minutes.

‘If you can’t catch it inside, let’s jump without looking back.’

As soon as the skill becomes available, the raid is a failure.

Not only does he start re-using all the skills he’s been hit with, but his injuries gradually heal after that mode is over.

With one main dealer Amelia, the recovery rate will be faster than the deal put in.

therefore… … .

「The character has cast [Swipe].」

He doesn’t care about the remaining MP and uses his skills profusely. It was decided that it would not be possible to even disperse the gaze with just a flat stroke.

“Amelia!”

Whether you can catch him or not depends on how good the main dealer is.

“… … tt.”

Amelia clicked her tongue at my cry and swung her dagger again. The expression on his face showed that he wanted to pass the time.

‘tt, these are the guys who are here.’

I don’t understand at all.

I like it or hate it anyway, but I have to fight for 10 minutes, so why just hold on?

It’s great if you just catch it… … .

‘Oh, he won’t get anything even if the essence comes out.’

It was also understandable that Amelia showed her lack of enthusiasm.

Because he would have filled all the seats with integers anyway.

However, the wizard has already escaped, so even if the essence comes out, it cannot be put in the test tube, and even if it can be contained, it is difficult for us to sell and settle.

Because he’s from Noark.

I hope that we will never meet again after today.

“If I succeed in catching this guy, I won’t claim ownership of Belverson’s gear!”

In that sense, it gave me a new motivation.

But, what else is this?

“… … Were you thinking of claiming it?”

Amelia spits out innocent words.

No, so you were going to eat it by yourself?

A topic that appeared later and hit the last hit?

“… … Carmilla, you and I will have it.

Well, I’ve heard of an agreement like that.

But you didn’t do it with me, did you?

“It’s something I don’t know!”

Amelia muttered quietly as she screamed while avoiding Stormgash’s claws.

“… … Right.”

Somehow, he seemed to know what he meant this time.

My barbarian-style coercion logic in the future must have been clear to my eyes.

Thanks to you, I got a little enthusiasm in my eyes.

The most desirable situation as an employer.

Koo-!

A more active fighting ensued.

He had already drank a lot of kimchi soup while talking about loot, but strictly speaking, the chances were half and half.

catch on time

Or do I have to run away after failing to catch it and enduring so much suffering and loss?

It is still difficult to determine what the outcome will be.

By all means, I hope that it is the former, and I just move my body hard.

“Behel—raa!!”

Sweat and drops of blood run down the skin.

No time to rest though.

The harder I try to annoy him, the more I’ll help Amelia with her dill on a tight tightrope.

Fu-wook!

His claws slam down his shoulder.

rattle.

The breastplate, which had no seams, split and fell to the floor.

‘Damn the cost of repairs.’

Novel from https://readwn.com

My hands were shaking, but I decided to think positively.

Wasn’t it already harpooned armor?

I don’t think the repair cost would have changed much if I just avoided it… … .

“Amelia!”

Stormgash ignored me and swung his tail at Amelia.

Tadat.

Fortunately, I jumped up and avoided it, but… … .

Fu-wook!

A dagger hidden in the storm slammed into Amelia’s body.

There was nothing surprising.

At first, he avoided seeing each one, but as the battle continued, injuries large and small were accumulating on his body.

However… … .

“ね.”

This one’s not in a good place.

Thighs nowhere else.

Perhaps he touched a blood vessel, and blood was gushing out from the punctured thigh area.

But the real problem is different.

Tadat.

There was a problem with Amelia’s mobility.

‘Nimiral.’

After being injured, as feared, Amelia hasn’t been able to attack as aggressively as before.

And this resulted in a drop in DPS.

‘I can’t catch it like this.’

The brain is complicated.

Should I change my strategy now?

Do you just jump out of your pocket?

No, what about my repair costs?

Who pays for our hardships?

‘… … Let’s do some more.’

I quickly put an end to my deliberation and made a decision.

Just as much as our condition has deteriorated, it is certain that he has been driven into a corner.

His vitality is almost at the bottom… … .

[human.]

Then he spoke for the first time.

Somewhere with eyes full of anger.

[I-aa-!!!”

I hit a line like that.

Novel from https://readwn.com

My body stiffened at the strange spirit.

‘This ambassador… … . No, in the first place, was he a monster with lines?’

Even thinking about cancer, I have no memory of that.

So, is it a change that occurred as a result of the reality patch?

Anyway, let’s think about this later.

Because that’s not what’s important right now.

「The character has [Giantization] turned off.」

「The character has cast [Giantization].」

I quickly switched the mode to gigantic (normal).

This is because [Transcendence] cannot be used during gigantic (transcendence).

「The character has cast [Transcendence].」

It’s really just a difference.

What we need now to fill this gap is a deal, not a tang.

“The skill used next will be strengthened.”

Of course, I don’t have many skills.

If so, which one do you use?

‘jump.’

First off, this is not

I don’t know if I’m dealing with a long-distance group that features a paper body. The ability to move quickly can’t even cover 1% of its HP.

‘Swipe.’

This is also true.

Turning on [Transcendence] only increases the range, not the damage itself.

It makes no sense.

An essence that never existed in my upbringing method.

Nevertheless, he ate it by accident, and, unfortunately, it has helped countless times along the way.

「The character has cast [Flesh Explosion].」

Yeah, I don’t know if this is it.

「The ability of the skill is unlocked by the power of the Transcendental Body.」

After casting the skill in advance, he ran forward.

Now this isn’t an instant skill.

“It explodes after 3 seconds… … .”

3 second delay.

But instead.

“The explosion damage is greatly increased.”

Damage is increased.

Unbelievably much.

‘Well, this was about 35 times, maybe?’

It’s all I’ve done once or twice while researching [Transcendence], but my memory is probably correct. In [Dungeon & Stone], it’s rare to find a skill that increases damage this much.

Oh, of course, the amount of pure damage itself is low.

In the first place, it is only for spraying [Acid Body Fluid], but the explosive power itself is a low skill. At 35x level, it is difficult to break even 3% of the HP of a level 3 monster.

Well, I guess that’s enough for now.

Tadat.

He dashed forward one more time and grabbed the man’s neck with both arms and clinged to it.

It’s called barbarian suicide bomber mode.

[aan-!!]

He roared as he struggled to get me off.

Oh, I hope you know how to open your mouth.

swoosh.

Abandoning the mace, I quickly put my hand into the man’s jaw.

Kwajik-!

The one who immediately bites my hand with thick teeth as if this human is crazy.

But one is wrong.

I am a barbarian

not human

‘Yeah, it’s about time anyway.’

When I counted the time limit inside, an explosion erupted from the hand bitten by it.

Although.

If it’s an explosion, there’s no fireworks that accompany it.

aah

Yeah, if this isn’t an explosion, what is it?

***

The moment the explosion bloomed, the body floated in the air.

It was such a strong explosion.

Koo-!

Soon, my heavy body sank to the floor, and I hurriedly raised my head and stared at where he was. As soon as I saw the wind subsided, I guessed… … .

🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

Stormgash’s body turned into a beam of light and flew away.

「You have killed Stormgash +EXP 7」

Yes, you got it.

「Achievement」

Condition: Defeat the first 3rd grade monster.

Reward: Permanently +1 Spirit.

Is it because I’ve been a barbarian for a long time?

The feeling of spiritual satisfaction fills up from winning the battle.

But unfortunately.

“… … !!!”

That satisfaction did not last long.

It was because of the pain that could not be described in words.

The cause was clear.

“All defense values are temporarily sealed.”

Side effects of flesh explosion (transcendence).

Ha, I didn’t even think about the pain tolerance disappearing.

‘Oh, shit… … .’

It was a time when I couldn’t even scream at the vivid pain I had experienced in a long time, and my mouth was sore.

“Barbarian, are you okay?”

Amelia raised her head with a blurry vision.

and… … .

“You are lucky.”

said something meaningful.

I don’t think I’m talking about simply surviving or succeeding in killing that guy.

Ah, maybe… … .

“essence… … go… … .”

“Yeah, it came out.”

What, really?

I lifted my head a little more and checked my stomach.

Then he saw the ultramarine blue essence floating in the air.

It seems that I couldn’t find it before because my eyes were out of focus… … .

‘… … Hallelujah.’

I immediately crawled and crawled towards the Essence.

Pain all over your body?

what does that mean

Human beings are capable of being blinded by greed in any circumstance.

“… … Wouldn’t it be better to treat first?”

Treatment can be done later.

This isn’t the first time I’ve lost an arm.

“Oh my gosh… … .”

“Funny guy.”

I pretended not to hear Amelia and crawled towards the essence as if possessed.

“The [Essence of Stormgash] permeates the character’s soul.”

「Increases strength by +90.」

“Increases agility by +55.”

「Physical resistance increases by +75.」

「Natural regeneration is increased by +50.」

“Lung capacity increases by +40.”

“Lightning resistance decreased by -30….”

“… … .”

A powerful force that seems to fill up from the inside of the body.

It was time to enjoy that pleasant fullness.

“Then eat the potion first.”

Amelia opened the subspace bracelet.

That was the moment.

aa-!

A brilliant light leaked from the entrance to the subspace.

Even as I am not familiar with magic, it was a strange thing.

Because something like that doesn’t happen even if you put something shiny in the subspace.

then… What is it?

“… … .”

Whether it was Amelia who felt the same doubt, she quickly put her hand in and rummaged through it.

And I pulled out one thing.

“Why is this now… … .”

It was a stone emitting a pure white light.
