Chapter 204 – Despair (2)
Chaos Alcatraz was hit directly on the head by Rhenia’s ultimate skill 〈 Shining Break 〉, but it stands still as if nothing happened.
Even though it attacked at the same timing as when it attacked for the 10th time, just like when it was a human.
Could it be that the gimmick has changed? Or are we no longer able to even inflict damage with our attacks?
Whichever answer is correct, it is the same that we have entered a hopeless situation.
In order to defeat Chaos Alcatraz, the basic premise is to inflict damage no matter what method is used, but we are currently not satisfied with even that basics.
Chaos Alcatraz slowly lowered his head and looked at me.
《Do you understand now? From the beginning, you were people who couldn’t even be recognized as enemies to me. I was definitely surprised by the fact that it had so much power that it felt pain to me when it was polymorphing into a human body, and the way it attacked me, but it wasn’t fatal in any way. If I transform into this body now, there will be no pain or itchiness at all.》
Every word of Chaos Alcatraz becomes a sharp arrow and pierces my heart.
“Now, no matter how much you attack in the same way, you can’t do any harm to me. It is a situation where there is no choice but to fall into endless despair. Kkeut!》
If that’s what I said, it could mean that we have no way to defeat Chaos Alcatraz…
But I can’t give up like this.
Cancer! I think I should give up.
If I was going to give up, I gave up a long time ago. When the existence of Chaos Alcatraz came to mind, I gave up long ago and stayed.
But if everyone doesn’t give up, what will happen if I give up? Even now, everyone is confident that if they join me, they can defeat Chaos Alcatraz.
I know. That I am so weak. If I were to compare the game to everyone else at the moment, everyone would be at max level and wearing graduation gear, while I had just returned and was barely able to knock on the raid entrance wearing tattered gear.
However, I am in a situation where I am the mental supporter for everyone. Even though everyone knows that I am weaker than them, there are people who respect me and even try to treat me as a god.
For everyone’s sake, I can’t give up now. Even if I can’t damage Chaos Alcatraz, I must try to be a strong support in everyone’s hearts.
Also, I know more about the game Elion than anyone else here. What this means is that he also remembers well the actions of Elion operators.
I admit that I don’t know much about the gimmick or pattern of Chaos Alcatraz and I’m not sure if I can figure it out, but wouldn’t it open if I keep tapping?
Even in games, who can figure out the gimmicks and patterns of monsters at once? Such a person does not exist and it prevents the operators from finding out in the first place.
When I think of the gimmick of Chaos Alcatraz while I was still human, I get the strong feeling that the Elyon operators were deliberately trying to make it difficult.
Everyone might be able to figure out this gimmick without me, but I’m confident I’ll figure it out much faster than them.
Jjambap, who has been playing Elion for a long time, never goes anywhere.
Even though I don’t have the power, I can figure out these things first, so I’d like to help just a little bit.
I feel like if I just defeat this guy, everything will be resolved.
The women I live with now are no longer just characters in a game. It is like a living person who lives, breathes, thinks, and wants just like me.
And it became my goal to have a happy ending together in this world. I can’t die here without achieving that dream.
‘Let’s all attack again. And the part where the 10th attack goes into continues to change.’
I whispered my thoughts to everyone.
Clearly, Chaos Alcatraz reacted as if it had not suffered any damage to Rhenia’s attack just now. But the guy just gave me a small hint.
Apparently, when he was in human form, if we made the 10th attack, it would be painful even if it wasn’t fatal. Moreover, he even confirmed that such an attack method was correct.
However, he said that if he changed into his dragon form now, it wouldn’t hurt or itch.
It sounds like attacking yourself in dragon form in the same way would be useless, but there may be room for a slightly different interpretation.
Even if you attack in the same way as when you were human, you won’t be able to inflict any damage, but you didn’t say that the attack method is useless.
If the method of inflicting damage has changed when in dragon form, it is more accurate to say ‘that type of attack no longer works’ rather than saying that the attack is useless.
But he didn’t say it that way. He only said that attacking him in the current manner would not cause any damage to him.
So, this means that the current gimmick will be maintained and that a slightly more complicated method will have to be used.
So I whispered to everyone and told them to attack different parts of the body.
This is because I thought that the added gimmick while transformed into the form of a huge dragon like now would be to attack specific parts in order with a high probability.
The gimmick of Byhamoth, which first appeared as a raid, was to start by breaking the horn and then proceeding with the raid by destroying the next parts in order.
Many people were confused because such a monster gimmick did not exist before, but eventually, after numerous tries, they came up with a perfect strategy.
Since then, the level 85 raid boss Kraken also had a gimmick to some extent, and the level 95 raid boss Hydra also had a similar gimmick of requiring each neck to be destroyed.
Level 90 or 100 raid bosses are not as large as other bosses and do not have this gimmick, but Chaos Alcatraz, the level 110 raid boss, shares two forms.
When taking on the form of a dragon, it changes into a huge body, so it may have been designed to require you to destroy specific parts in order once again.
The problem is that you have to find out the order quickly, but the only way to find out right away is to target and attack all parts.
Everyone who heard me immediately attacked.
Those who could attack from a distance widened the distance and used their skills, while those who had to attack from close range attacked with as much caution as possible.
Even when Chaos Alcatraz was in human form, the only ones who were attacked were Ellie and Lien, who had to attack from close range.
Chaos Alcatraz doesn’t show much movement even when we attack it.
They just look at us in amazement as we still keep pushing forward without giving up.
《He’s a guy who really doesn’t know how to give up. Still don’t know?》
“So, you don’t know yet? You don’t know how we will fall.”
I said sarcastically to Chaos Alcatraz, who spoke as if he was sorry.
The guy is letting down his guard now. He probably thinks that we can never defeat him in his dragon form. Just by looking at his voice and the way he moves, those feelings are clearly evident.
Therefore, we need to find out about his gimmicks and patterns quickly at this moment.
I decided to join everyone and attack Chaos Alcatraz. Earlier, when Chaos Alcatraz was in human form, I was worried that I might be in danger, and I also wanted to focus on watching and figuring out its gimmicks and patterns.
But now, I decided it would be better for me to join in the attack and at least help fill the number of attacks.
Besides, I’ve already figured out half of his gimmick.
I was concerned that the number of attacks might be messed up because of me, so I decided to attack as far forward as possible in the order in which I attack.
We attacked Chaos Alcatraz in order as quickly as possible, starting from its head to its tail.
It’s a bonus to see how Chaos Alcatraz reacts to our attacks.
In between attacks, I used skills to bind monsters just in case.
This is because just as there may be separate areas where damage is applied, there may also be separate areas where the restraint skill is effective.
