Chapter 104 – Careful Preparation (11)
14. Careful Preparation (11)
The moment I met Are’s silver eyes, which were more than half red, goose bumps ran down my spine.
‘I’m scolded, I’m scolded. If even those eyes turn completely red… I don’t think it’s because I feel like I’m getting out of control, right?’
The ferocity of the werewolves that Kaya had mentioned, and the message that the message indicated as their nature, could also appear in Ar, made my heart impatient.
‘Fuck, half a day, half a day, I don’t know, let’s blow it first.’
I took out the small flute that the officer in charge had given me.
[The Salem Livestock Superintendent’s Flute]
– When used, reinforcements infiltrate after a certain period of time (reinforcement strength is arbitrary)
– The earlier you use it, the lower the chance of reinforcements coming.
I don’t know how many hours have passed now. But no matter how generously I thought about it, it wasn’t even half a day. Thinking back to when I received this flute from the officer in charge, it was a bit unreliable, but there was no way.
Beep- Beep- Beep-!
[I used the flute of the Salem Livestock Manager.]
It blew very vigorously. The sound was very weak compared to the breath that was blown in. Still, seeing that the message popped up, it seemed that this was also treated as an item, so I believed that it had somehow reached that side. Ironically, I believed in the message more than the officer in charge who gave me the flute.
“Keugh!”
“Shay!”
“Are you okay! I can hold on!”
The attack of the monsters continued. A lion clawed, a tiger slapped, and a wild boar rammed. Shay handled all of those attacks. Sometimes it flowed exquisitely with Claymore, and sometimes it endured with armor. She didn’t shed a drop of blood.
‘It’s so damn good.’
Except for the giant mosquito, the other monsters’ attacks went in vain. However, due to Ar’s roar, the status ailments of the seven people who were unable to move were lifted. Most of them were giant pests, and thinking about the giant mosquitoes targeting Ar gave her a headache. It was my turn again, but in the current situation, all I could do was split the heads of the enemies. So, I succeeded in splitting one, but monsters, like people in line for a restaurant, immediately after one fell behind, a new one came in. As time passed, the specifications of the filling guy gradually got stronger.
Now that my turn is over, after Shay and Kaya’s turn, a wave of 12 monsters will come again. And if Ar is attacked again…
The time for decision has come.
“Shay.”
“Yes, chief. I am listening.”
Shay, who was turning her body at an angle to 1 o’clock, answered with her gaze still fixed in front of her. She must be tired, but neither her posture nor her voice wavered.
She believed in her unwavering strength of defense and spirit, and she ordered her to take on all those monsters.
“For once, draw attention.”
“… That’s right. Now is the most dangerous time.”
Shay only glanced at her with her eyes, looked in Ar, then pulled her lips up in a grin.
“Uh. Apparently, I want to delay Ar’s attack as much as possible.”
Ar, growling softly from behind, was a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment. Kaya and Shay, as well as me, were aware of the danger. A tension of a different kind prevailed than the urgency and desperation she felt when her comrades’ mentality neared -100 in Sector 1.
“Please leave it to me. You won’t be able to touch even a single hair.”
Shay thumped her chest as if she were telling her to trust her, then slammed the claymore into the ground, dripping with her blood and her flesh. She then placed both of her hands on her handle.
“This is-!”
[The Last Crusade]
“I can’t pass by–!!!”
[Shay carves Her Brand (1 turn) on herself.]
[As long as the stigma is maintained, all monsters will attack Shay.]
[Acquires ‘never pushed back’ status abnormality.]
[Shay’s resistance to various abnormal conditions increases.]
[Shay’s defense increases by 1.]
[When she is hit, Shay’s HP is restored by 1.]
[When attacked, Shay counterattacks (damage compensation -25%) with a certain probability.]
[The stigma is lifted and you cannot act for one turn.]
The eyes of the monsters scattered here and there were focused on Shay, who was standing tall with a Claymore at the forefront. It was really creepy that the disgusting things turned her head at the same time, but Shay had a smile on her face.
‘I have to see Shay’s performance as much as she gave up her dealings for her 2 turns…’
Anyway, thanks to Shay casting her guaranteed taunt, she’s safe for at least one turn.
“Kaya. This time around 3 o’clock.”
“Yes, chief.”
In order to balance left and right, Kaya ran to the pests and swung her mace this time. The one who attacked Ar earlier, whose spit was shortened by more than half, saw Kaya approaching and hurriedly flapped his wings…
[Everything according to God’s will]
[Destructive blow!]
[Kaya dealt 24 damage to 17 vicious giant mosquitoes.]
[Remaining HP –4/20]
[The terrible destruction that the monster met became the nourishment of the hopes of the warriors.]
[Shay Mentality +4]
[Kaya mentality +3]
[Eugene mentality +4]
[Armentality +3]
The lower part of the stomach exploded with a blow of the mace.
It was a pretty heartbreaking scene from a distance to see the cock sucker who dared to stick a straw in Ar, but Kaya’s face, covered in some of his bodily fluids, was quite distorted. I wanted to wipe it off with a cloth soaked in water.
‘Come.’
“Come on everyone!!!”
However, after Kaya’s turn was over, the speedy pests began pouring down merciless and shitty attacks on Shay one after another.
“Please!”
“La Ella!”
The giant mosquito, the fastest of the twelve monsters, flew at Shay at breakneck speed. Although Shay’s defense is much higher than Ar’s, we couldn’t help but worry when Ar’s scene overlapped.
Please, please, please.
The moment when the stinger of the giant mosquito reaches Shay.
“Get lost-!!”
[The Vicious Giant Mosquito 18 did 0 damage to Shay.]
[Shay’s HP is restored by 1.]
[Remaining HP 16/24]
[Shay fights back fiercely.]
[Shay did 20 damage to the vicious Giant Mosquito18.]
[Remaining HP 0/20]
[The vicious giant mosquito 18 has died.]
[A flame rises in the hearts of my colleagues.]
[All warriors’ mentality +4]
As Shay pulled the claymore out of the ground like a bolt of lightning and swung it sideways, the giant mosquito snapped in half without a click.
I was hit, but rather, my stamina was full, and I hit the monster with a counterattack fatal blow?
Cheers erupted as much as the size of her concern for Shay.
“Shay!!!”
But now only one of the twelve attacks had ended. My cries were drowned out by the screams of the monsters. In the meantime, the giant centipede, the top of the top hating appearances, crawled at Shay at high speed, wriggling its numerous legs.
[The vicious giant centipede 14 did 0 damage to Shay.]
[Shay’s HP is restored by 1.]
[Remaining HP 17/24]
[Shay fights back.]
[Shay did 6 damage to 14 vicious giant centipedes.]
[Remaining HP 16/22]
Shay, who received the giant centipede’s attack with his body, rather trampled on the centipede and burst a part of her.
[15 Vicious Giant Centipedes dealt 0 damage to Shay.]
[Shay’s HP is restored by 1.]
[Remaining HP 18/24]
[Shay fights back.]
[Shay did 7 damage to 15 vicious giant centipedes.]
[Remaining HP 15/22]
Another centipede cut off its legs.
[The vicious giant fly 16 did 0 damage to Shay.]
[Shay’s HP is restored by 1.]
[Remaining HP 19/24]
[Shay fights back fiercely.]
[Shay did 12 damage to the vicious giant fly 16.]
[Remaining HP 6/18]
[A flame rises in the hearts of my colleagues.]
[All warriors’ mentality +3]
It blew out the eyeballs of the giant fly.
Since then, the monsters’ attacks have continued. After the attack of the pests, which had been fast, was over, the attack of the seawater with higher attack power continued immediately.
– Kwiyiyi-!!!
Haha!!!!”
[The ferocious wild boar 21 did 2 damage to Shay.]
[Shay’s HP is restored by 1.]
[Remaining HP 20/24]
[Shay fights back fiercely.]
[Shay did 15 damage to 21 ferocious boars.]
[Remaining HP 9/24]
[A flame rises in the hearts of my colleagues.]
[All warriors’ mentality +3]
However, seawater also followed the same path as pests.
The boar’s charge, which seemed to crush everything, Shay, standing like her giant tree, was not enough to receive it with honesty, so it bounced away.
– Kkae-gaeng-!!
[Savage Wolf 23 did 0 damage to Shay.]
[Shay’s HP is restored by 1.]
[Remaining HP 21/24]
[Shay fights back.]
[Shay did 8 damage to 23 vicious wolves.]
[Remaining HP 14/22]
Ignoring the wolf’s gruesome fangs and powerful jaws, he put one forearm into his mouth and then smashed his belly with his other hand.
The tiger’s charge splattered the tiger’s skin with a claymore held at an exquisite angle, and the lion’s front paws were caught with her shoulder as if it were troublesome to avoid, and she dug out the eyeballs.
“Come on! Come on! Ahahahaha!!!”
Shay was constantly being attacked by monsters from three directions, but far from shrinking, she laughed ferociously. The monsters continued to attack without hesitation, perhaps because their survival instincts had been castrated for some reason, but it looked like mosquitoes attracted to electric fields.
Haha!!!”
Finally, Shay, who successfully countered all the monsters’ attacks, even showed off a tremendous counterattack. All of her body, including her hair, was covered in her bodily fluids and blood. But it was all from the bodies of the monsters.
Kayado, me, and even Ardo.
I shuddered to see Shay’s trustworthy demeanor laughing at the monsters, standing in the same spot where he first put the claymore.
‘Hero.’
Her back looks like Jangpanpa equipment, Leonidas’ death squad in Thermopylae, and Admiral Yi Sun-sin in Myeongnyang.
Shay’s struggle, apart from the fact that each monster was weak compared to the dungeon, gave us great strength when we were under tremendous pressure from the situation itself.
That, Ars was also the same.
Ar, whose speed dropped to 1 after changing into a wolf form, was pushed to the final turn and only returned after all the monsters’ turns were over.
She stared blankly at Shay’s back. Compared to when she was human, her ability to think rationally decreased, but her memories did not disappear.
Ar actually thought Shay was the most halfway point. She thought her destructive power was inferior to Hendrick’s ax stroke or Kaya’s mace quality, and her strange balance was insignificant compared to her own attacks.
But her just was different.
She never broke both body and mind.
She scoffed, saying that the attack was not good for the monsters who had been attacking with ferocity. She never got pushed back. In order not to unsettle those of us standing behind. The movements were crude and simple, but powerful. And it was tough.
Like her initial cry that she wouldn’t let anyone go behind, Shay didn’t fall.
She is a member of the Order who took her forcibly, and even took her respect. She was great
On the other hand, what about her?
Are you afraid that you saw some blood, and you want to lose your temper because you killed some monsters while transformed?
It wasn’t even a person that killed it, it was a monster.
And instead of killing people who know my kind, even those who treat me well for the first time are endangered because of my mental problems?
Attack, kill, attack, kill, attack, kill, now you can succeed, attack, swoop down, attack, attack, attack, stab your throat, drink fresh blood, slit your chest, chew your fresh heart, slit your belly, chew your fresh liver, and attack attack attack…
‘Quiet!’
Ar punched me in the face with her fist. A pair of nosebleeds burst and her lips parted. Hendrick, who was watching, panicked and tried to approach him, but Ar reached out and stopped him.
“Beautiful…”
“… !!”
“Command… Give… !”
Hendrick’s eyes widened. He asked if he was okay, then shook his head.
“Those guys.”
Hendrick pointed to nine o’clock.
“Exterminate them.”
At that moment, what was supposed to be a tiger’s head floated into the air.
