Chapter 256 – Final Strike (1)
What?
Why did Renia’s attack suddenly work?
I blankly looked at Chaos Alcatraz suffering from Rhenia’s 〈 Violence Dark Spear 〉.
Clearly, there were only two ways to inflict damage on this guy.
The first is to attack according to the timing since the attack is only allowed on the 10th attempt.
The second is to go to another dimension through the 〈 space distortion 〉 that I can use and attack through his space magic.
Even though there are only these two things, Renia’s attack just went right in.
This surprised not only me but everyone around me, and even Chaos Alcatraz, which had just been attacked, had the same reaction.
No, wouldn’t that guy have been more surprised? Of course, Renia’s attack, which I thought would be defended, came as it was.
Usually, expected attacks are dealt with unconsciously, but this time it must have been much more painful because the attack was completely unexpected.
Okay, I don’t know what happened, but this is a huge win for us. It’s advantageous…
The unknown phenomenon that just occurred is important, but the patterns of Chaos Alcatraz that have been spread are also problematic.
To kill us completely, they used one or two patterns, but they used five or six patterns at once, so I have no idea where to avoid.
《Ugh… Why is my space magic… Well, it doesn’t matter. Die with this!!》
Chaos Alcatraz was momentarily staggered by Rhenia’s attack, but soon came to its senses and charged towards us, firing the patterns it used.
Right now, the thought of ending our lives through this attack is rampant.
This… How can I avoid it?
But is it because of the fighting so far? Reacting with my body was faster than thinking in my head.
〈God’s Power: Barrier 〉
First of all, I set up a barrier using defensive skills around me to block patterns that were collected from long-distance attacks.
“Ellie! Stop me just this once!”
I reflexively called Eli’s name, and as soon as Eli heard me, he immediately stood in front of me.
Ellie must have read my mind and immediately activated the skill I wanted to use.
〈Divine Shield〉
Among us, Ellie was the only one who had the skills to counter direct attacks. I think I called Ellie without realizing it, and it seems like Ellie knew what I wanted as soon as she heard my voice.
As a shield containing Ellie’s divine power was created, she used her shield to block the teeth of Chaos Alcatraz that were coming to bite us.
Bang!
At the same time, several long-distance pattern attacks laid down by Chaos Alcatraz were blocked by the 〈 God’s Power: Barrier 〉 that I used and could not hurt us.
“K, keuuuuu)
However, it was difficult to block all of the attacks that Ellie was blocking. Because it wasn’t possible to block all of these attacks in the first place.
“Haaaaap!”
At that moment, Lien broke through the barrier I had placed and jumped next to the head of Chaos Alcatraz. And then I threw the gun at the guy’s head with all my might.
〈 Shredding Fist 〉
Obviously, there would be no way to react to an attack like this, but Chaos Alcatraz’s head was shaken by Lien’s attack and he fell sideways.
《Gasp!》
“Freya! Protect Rien!”
I quickly had Freya use the skill to protect Lien, who had gone out of the barrier. I just hit Chaos Alcatraz’s head and deflected it to the side, but the ranged patterns were still active, so Lien, who came up to hit the guy’s head, was unable to dodge the attack in the air and was still in danger of being hit.
〈God’s Power: Barrier 〉
〈Power of God: Chain〉
When the barrier I used was about to disappear over time, Freyja immediately used it again to prevent us from taking damage from long-distance attacks, and threw a chain of light towards Lien who was floating in the air, then pulled it back into the barrier.
Okay, first of all, I did a good job protecting Lien from getting hurt.
Moreover, it seems like it withstood the attacks from Chaos Alcatraz well.
This is definitely thanks to the skills that defend against long-distance attacks.
By the way, I need to think about the amazing phenomenon before my eyes, both Lien’s attack and Renia’s attack just now.
Why did Rhenia and Lien’s attack work? It never worked before.
There must be some reason. Otherwise, there is no way the sudden attack would work.
Since when? When the attack started to work…
When he enters Phase 3? No, even then there was still a limit on the number of times. Because I completed the count when I broke the dragon heart.
When the Dragon Heart was broken? That’s not it either. There was still a limit on the number of times, so you went to 〈space distortion〉 and attacked, right?
What’s next?
Hmm… 〈What did I do after I crossed the dimension with space distortion 〉 and attacked him and caused him damage…
Ah! I remembered.
Apparently, after he hit us with an all-out ultimate attack again, he started firing patterns wildly, so I used 〈 Time Stop 〉 to avoid it.
After that, I escaped from the dimension using 〈 space distortion 〉.
After that, Renia attacked, and suddenly the attack worked regardless of the number limit.
I know when the attack started working, but I can’t figure out the cause.
In the first place, the gimmick of Chaos Alcatraz’s 10th attack effect has never been solved like this in the game.
So why did this phenomenon suddenly occur? There was only one thing that came to mind…
The only way for a monster’s gimmick to suddenly stop working like it does now is when a bug suddenly occurs in the game.
Otherwise, things like now where the gimmick doesn’t work won’t happen.
So why did the bug occur?
The reason why we are prone to bugs like this is because bugs usually occur when we do something completely different, so if we think carefully about what we did, we will come up with an answer…
Ah! There is. This was not a normal situation at all.
No, wouldn’t it be better to say that this is a situation that could never happen in an actual game?
What I remembered was that after crossing the dimension with 〈 space distortion 〉, time stopped with 〈 time stop 〉.
People who don’t know this may ask if this is such a special thing, but this can’t possibly happen in an actual Elion game.
Because these two skills are exclusive skills used in completely different raids.
Unlike the skills generally used by characters, there are raid-specific skills that are given according to the gimmick of each raid for the fun of the game. Examples include 〈 Time Stop 〉, 〈 Dash 〉, and 〈 Space Distortion 〉 that I use.
In other words, since these skills can only be used in each raid, it is normal that they cannot be used in other raids.
Therefore, cases where raid-specific skills are used together cannot occur in the game.
But such ridiculous things have happened because of the existence of this country.
No matter how powerful Chaos Alcatraz is, you can fundamentally think of it as a monster in the game. Otherwise, you wouldn’t get hit with the bug I intentionally used when in Phase 1 human form.
In other words, this guy can be seen as an embodiment of the bug that exists in the game, and thanks to the feast of 〈 space distortion 〉 and 〈 time stop 〉 that I used at the same time, a phenomenon that could not have occurred in the actual game occurred.
Okay, anyway, the limit on the number of times I’ve been really annoying has been lifted.
In this situation where there is no need to attack beyond the dimension due to 〈 space distortion 〉, it is best to end it quickly.
Because we don’t know how long this bug will last.
Chaos Alcatraz, which had been attacked by Lien, slowly stood up and glared at us.
《Ugh… Wasn’t it a coincidence that my space magic didn’t work… This is such a ridiculous thing…》
“I agree. I never imagined a situation like this would come.”
With Rhenia and Lien’s attack just now, everyone would have known the current state of Chaos Alcatraz without me having to explain anything.
“Okay, then… Let’s end this long, long, bad relationship. Let’s go!”
With my words, we all charged towards Chaos Alcatraz.
