Chapter 250 – Chaos Alcatraz and the Final Battle (3)
Most defensive skills in Elion games provide protection against long-distance attacks. At least 〈 Bone Shield 〉 should I say that it can hit melee attacks as well?
However, 〈 Bone Shield 〉 does not completely protect against attacks like 〈 God’s Power: Barrier 〉 or 〈 Frozen Block 〉 that have been frequently used so far.
This skill is insufficient to block the approaching Chaos Alcatraz.
Moreover, the timing was late. I naturally thought that Chaos Alcatraz only used a beater that summoned black thorns, and that there would be no additional attacks unless ranged attacks came in a double pattern, but this guy was completely different and came in with a mix of ranged and close-range attacks.
A completely different situation from the pattern so far. This can’t be happening! Clearly, until now, Demon has not deviated significantly from the attack pattern in the game. But Chaos Alcatraz ignored that and attacked.
What is this guy… Ah, no way!
A thought comes to mind at the moment, but it can be checked later, and the urgent priority now is to avoid the attacks of Chaos Alcatraz.
I think the time has come to use the skills I have saved and saved in times of crisis like now.
〈Time Stop〉
When I used the skill, the movement of all objects around me began to slow down and eventually stopped. Everything except me. My character, Chaos Alcatraz, and the magic attacks he used.
〈Hyper Teleport〉
I used a skill that allowed me to teleport with a large number of people and escaped Chaos Alcatraz’s hand attack as much as possible. However, risk is not completely avoided.
As soon as 〈 Time Stop 〉 ended, I used 〈 Frozen Blocks 〉 to create a wall of ice around us.
〈 Time Stop 〉 ended and the movement of objects around us returned, and black thorns rained down on our heads.
“Rachel! Freya! I will survive with 〈 Frozen Block 〉 and 〈 Power of God: Barrier 〉! I’m going to hang up the 〈 Frozen Block 〉 I used before it disappears!”
“Ah, ah! Yes, Jinu! Sister Freya. I will use it first.”
Freya nodded her head at Rachel’s words, and the black thorns raining down on her head were able to take no damage by the three of us, Rachel and Freya, standing together and using long-distance defense skills in succession.
Quagwagwang!
At the same time, Chaos Alcatraz scratched the ground with his hands, creating a large groove.
“Hmm? Did you use Sagan Stop again? That’s a really annoying ability.》
Previously, while avoiding Chaos Alcatraz’s breath, I couldn’t use 〈 God’s Power: Barrier 〉 because it was on cooldown, and in addition, I missed the timing to avoid Chaos Alcatraz’s surprise attack.
Although I have been using it until now, there is no doubt that 〈 Time Stop 〉 is an amazing skill. Usually, in comics and novels, people with time-related abilities have a lot of final bosses, and it makes sense.
By the way, a thought occurred to me just now, so I asked Chaos Alcatraz a question.
“You… I wonder if you are, but I’m not sure… Were you originally human?”
“Huh? Jinu, what do you mean?’
Ellie was startled when she heard what I said and looked at me with her eyes wide.
The reason for asking this question during an urgent battle is to gain cooldown time for 〈 Space Distortion 〉 or 〈 Time Stop 〉 while talking. At first, I thought that since I now knew all of Chaos Alcatraz’s patterns and gimmicks, it would be easy to withstand the attacks without getting hit.
However, if a layered pattern that did not exist in the game appears and threatens us, like the previous attack, there is a limit to escaping with 〈 time stop 〉 like before.
“I don’t know what your original identity is, but just like Void, maybe you are the first Void. Are you also a fusion of a human and a demon?”
“Is that that important? Or are you planning to drag on this innocuous conversation just to kill time?”
Ugh… You guessed my intention exactly. But I didn’t give up and kept my mouth shut.
“Just think for yourself. I think all you have to do is say yes or no to what I say?”
Chaos Alcatraz grinned at me.
《Well, good. I’ll tell you. Yes, that’s right. As you said, I am the first being who has fused a human and a demon. No, you could say it is the final evolution of living things.》
Good. Even though I was able to understand his intentions, thanks to him, I was blowing with my mouth and time was passing by.
《Actually, I was Nemesis Arceusis, the king of the western city of Aldora. But after the headache, when he was stressed about the kingdom being eaten up by the world’s bastards, he came to me.》
And Chaos Alcatraz waved his hand at us.
《That is the strongest Demon! It was Chaos Alcatraz!》
And this time, a magic circle appeared beneath each of our feet. This is a pattern that tracks the user character and follows it continuously, and after a certain period of time, the magic circle explodes, causing great damage.
To avoid this easily, just avoid them all far away so they don’t overlap each other. And since it continues to move and does not move when the magic circle is about to explode, it is a pattern that can be easily broken by watching the timing and dodging to the side.
The problem is that if Chaos Alcatraz has not made any additional attacks up to now, it looks like it will make additional attacks again this time.
If everyone scatters in various directions for no reason, they may be destroyed individually by Chaos Alcatraz’s attack.
Because of these intelligent attacks and the way they behaved completely differently from attacks in the game, it occurred to me that Chaos Alcatraz was originally a human who had fused with a demon, and I was right.
For some reason, I’m really curious about the topic of Demons.
If so, you can roughly see the story. Chaos Alcatraz, who had come to invade this world, was banished to the dimension by Gaia and the first invasion would have failed.
And Gaia prevented demons from penetrating the dimension from all directions and made it possible to manage them intensively by only allowing them to enter through one passage, the dimension gate Numeron.
In a situation where it was difficult for all demons to cross, Chaos Alcatraz would have weakened his power and secretly passed through the dimensional gate Numeron and hidden in this dimension.
Then, it must have fused with the King of Aldora Kingdom, Nemesis Arseusis, whom I just mentioned. It is unknown whether there was some kind of transaction during the fusion, but since it was a demon that did not have the ability to speak anyway, I think it was probably forced to fuse.
For some reason, I thought he was more intelligent than a Demon. All the demons I have seen since coming to this world have never once spoken on their own, and like Chaos Alcatraz, they have never made intelligent attacks or attacks that deviate from the game’s patterns.
However, considering Chaos Alcatraz’s actions this time, he did not look like a demon at all, and that question has finally been answered.
Is that why the name was called Arceus at first? It’s a name he created by adding and changing his name when he was human.
After successfully fusing the person he did with the Demon, did this guy think that fusion would be more advantageous for the Demon’s future path? This is because it can act with free will rather than just operating like a built-in program.
So he may have been conducting research to create more voids.
Well, this is my opinion and Chaos Alcatraz may have different thoughts.
For now, the most important thing is to avoid the Chaos Alcatraz attack that was just used.
If you’re going to be scattered and in danger…
“Everyone gather around me first!”
When I shouted, everyone ran towards me without hesitation.
“Everyone, when I shout the signal, you must get out of the magic circle under your feet now. Otherwise, you will be caught in the explosion.”
Everyone nodded at what I said.
I explained to everyone and at the same time kept an eye on Chaos Alcatraz’s movements. The guy was stretching out his arm, showing his palm towards us.
That posture…Is it binding another person!
As soon as that thought came to mind, this time Freya lost consciousness and floated slightly in the air. This!
“Everyone must rescue Freya quickly!”
Why are you using this gimmick at this time? If Freya, trapped in the invisible barrier of Chaos Alcatraz, is left unattended, if an explosion occurs from the magic circle just created under the horse, Freya will be hit without being able to dodge.
〈Power of God: Sanctuary〉
It’s much lower than Freya’s buff amplification rate, but in this urgent situation, I have to increase everyone’s damage even a little, so I used the buff amplification skill on everyone.
〈Shine Spark〉
〈Divine Furnishment〉
〈 Shredding Fist 〉
Rhenia, Yuria, and Lien responded to my words and immediately attacked Freya. Fortunately, the damage was enough and the barrier that bound Freya was broken. Lien quickly picked up Freyja, who popped out of the barrier.
The time has come. Now it’s time for the magic circle under your feet to explode.
“Now!”
We quickly dispersed from where we were gathered and escaped the magic circle beneath our feet, and at that moment, a large explosion occurred.
Oh my, it’s dizzying to think that Freyja got caught up in that attack.
“Jinu! Be careful!”
This time, just when I thought I had successfully dodged all the attacks, I turned my head to hear Renia’s words, and before I knew it, Chaos Alcatraz had approached me and was already waving its hand at me, and was already right next to me.
No… Two layered patterns are enough. Why are you using 3 at the same time?
I didn’t have time to complain, and if things continued like this, I had no choice but to be beaten by the guy’s hands.
Since I was alone, it was possible to use 〈teleport 〉 to leave the place, but the situation was so urgent that my mind turned white and I couldn’t remember anything.
Bang!
And then I got hit by the guy’s attack and flew into the forest and crashed into a big tree.
“K, keuh…”
But it didn’t hurt as much as I thought. What? The attack was strong enough to shatter the room, but the only thing that hurt was my back hitting the tree. Is it strange?
When I widened my eyes at the strangeness… Ellie, who had been attacked by Chaos Alcatraz instead of me, was lying there, bleeding.
