Chapter 72 – 72.Field Boss (8)
Everyone put on the protection of the lotus and headed towards the rock where rock beans live.
No matter how much of Yeonhwa’s protection there is, everyone shows a very correct posture and is not relaxed.
While moving, I opened the status window.

Points have increased to 15 since last time.
Of those, 5 points were invested in strength as planned.
There are 10 points remaining.
Normally, I would have left it alone, but now that I am going to kill the first field boss, I raised the level of the best just in case.

My strength increased by 5, and I felt the natural strength in my body’s muscles and looked closely at the skill window.
What you need to check is the points needed for the next upgrade.
The current grade of Jeolchang is E, and the number of points needed to advance to D was the same at 5.
In other words, in order to raise the skill grade level, you had to spend the same amount of points each time as you earned.
This can be said to be fortunate.
It would have been overwhelming if the required points increased exponentially as the grade went up.
‘Then, unlike Jeolchang, things with low acquisition points can easily be upgraded.’
The point required to acquire basic skills learned in the beginning, such as Screw Sting or Lee Yeon-chung, is 1.
If you focus on just one thing, you can raise it to level B.
‘Let’s think about this later.’
As long as it’s enough to catch rock beans, the current state will be enough.
While I was gathering my thoughts, I arrived near the tall rocks surrounding the rock bean habitat.
And just as Adelia proves that the information is correct.
-Wooooo!
As soon as we arrived near the rock, the loud roar of rock beans rang out.
Thud! Thud! Thud! As a sound rang out, something huge was approaching, jumping from rock to rock.
It was similar to the cinematic scene that appeared when confronting the first Corrupt Rock Kong in the Rupan game.
A monster that looks like a giant gorilla and has skin as thick as a rock on its forehead and hands.
Rock Kong clung to the rock closest to us and glared at us with eyes that had turned red from the runaway.
“Hey, that’s a rock bean… !”
“It’s definitely in a state of runaway.”
-Wooooo!
Bang! Bang! Rock Kong pounded his chest and roared loudly.
“Pamela!”
“Well, the distance is too far!”
“Adelia Laden! I will attack first with my magic!”
“The blessing of recording!”
The plot unfolded around Adelia.
-Wooooo!
Seeing that, the Fallen Rock Kong must have instinctively sensed that we were hostile and immediately jumped off the rock.
Wooooo!
Before Atsubal could attack, a corrupt rock bean came down to the ground. As a result, a cloud of dust was created, hiding Rock Kong’s appearance for a while.
This is also a directing that occurred in the scene where Lupan’s Fallen Rock Kong appears.
But this isn’t a game at all.
Not only was there no need to wait until the appearance scene, but Rock Kong’s large silhouette was clearly visible even though it was obscured by a cloud of dust.
“The referee’s thunderbolt!”
Kwaruuuuu!
Atsval’s skill, strengthened by Adelia’s floor buff, hit Corrupt Rock Kong.
But.
-Wooooo!
Even after being hit by Atsubal’s strengthened skill, Tarak Rock Kong did not feel intimidated, but instead roared with even more anger.
As expected, it was like a field boss, so it was impossible to send him off in one hit.
If it were in a game, Rock Kong’s stamina would be almost 2-3 cuts due to the skill damage multiplier and debuff due to inflation, and the added passive skill correction of the main character.
If a critical hit is successful, it will be a one-shot cut, but it is still early days and it is difficult to tell whether everyone’s skill power is at its maximum as in the game. It would be too greedy to expect an easy catch.
First, when trying to send a signal to Adelia to deal with the dust cloud that does not clear up even when Atsubal’s skill hits.
-Woohooooot!
Bang! With a sound, the Fallen Rock Kong jumped high with its huge body came out of the dust cloud, and attacked us.
“Wait, the nail of shattering!”
Pamela’s skill was fired at the Fallen Rock Kong that was falling from the air.
A nail shaped like magical power briefly touched the body of Fallen Rock Kong and then bounced off.
However, just touching it inflicts a debuff.
“Adelia!”
“A torrent of rain!”
Blades of rain fell on the head of Corrupt Rock Kong, who was under Pamela’s debuff.
Unlike the crushing nail, the torrent of rain hit Corrupt Rock Kong’s back properly, and Corrupt Rock Kong also frowned.
As if in retaliation for the attack, Tarak Rock Kong hit the ground with his large fist the moment he almost hit the ground.
Kwaaaaang!
As the floor is hit, flying debris rushes towards us.
But now we have the protection department deployed.
There is no damage from flying debris.
Rather, this gap is the dealing time.
Because the place where the fallen rock bean landed is right in front of the line that Adelia spread.
And this is also known to other group members who have linked up while hunting monsters several times.
“Vine of obsession! Nail of destruction!”
“The prison of punishment!”
“A torrent of rain!”
“Awesome song!”
The vines wrapped around the legs of the corrupted Rock Kong, inflicting some damage and slowing down its movement speed. Additionally, the crushing nail fired lowered its defense, and after that, Atsuval and Adelia’s skills hit one after another.
Of course, there was no way that Fallen Rock Kong could fall at this level, so I used a perfect chant at the right moment when it did not overlap with the members’ skills.
The power is the same as when it was used against the Holy Beast of Water.
Kwaaaaa!
[Pierced through Corrupted Rock Kong.]
As the jeolchang fell, it was seen going through one of Rock Kong’s hands and a warning sound was heard.
Immediately after, Jeolchang collided with the ground, raising a cloud of dust again.
-Wooooo!
The dust cloud that formed this time quickly disappeared as Rock Kong waved his arm.
As the dust cloud cleared, the fallen rock bean was revealed again.
There are countless rain blades stuck on his back, and his fur here and there is slightly burned by Atsuval’s electricity.
However, the most impressive thing was the left arm that was completely amputated due to the amputation.
However, Tarak Lok Kong did not jump excessively or feel pain even though his arm was amputated.
Even if the arm was amputated, only the muscles were visible and no blood flowed out.
Rather.
-Wooooo!
As the fallen Rock Kong roared, bones sprouted from the muscles and the severed arm quickly began to regenerate.
“If you see it in person, it is indeed a disgusting sight. We will continue to attack without giving him a chance! Yeonhwa! Please ask for the mine department in case he rushes in.”
“I understand! Mine department!”
We started the attack again, starting with Yeon-hwa throwing an amulet and launching a mine at a considerable distance from us.
“Nail of crushing!”
“The prison of punishment!”
“A torrent of rain!”
“Awesome song!”
Attacks pouring down on Kong again.
However, this time, even the Fallen Rock Kong did not accept our attack easily.
-Woohoot! Woohoo!
Jumping backwards, Rock Kong clung to the high rock again.
The attack lost its target.
Kwaaaaang!
Jeolchang also simply fell into the ground and disappeared.
“I dodged it!”
“Hot! You must have been scared after seeing my skills!”
“Everyone be on guard! Rock Kong…!”
Adelia urgently raised her voice.
I heard the sound of something breaking.
Fallen Rock Kong, hanging on a rock, grabbed and ripped off some of the tall rocks with his regenerated arms.
-Woohooooot!
With a loud cry, Fallen Rock Kong threw the rock debris in his hand at us.
That act was Rock Kong’s 2nd phase gimmick, which acts after reducing stamina beyond a certain level.
Normally, the moment Rock Kong grabs the rock, the expected point of impact turns red so you can tell in advance, but not now.
But I didn’t feel the need to avoid it.
No matter how fiercely the rock was thrown, it flew towards this direction.
“Ohhohohohoho! It’s no use!”
Even a rock sling with enough force to blow off a part of a person’s body cannot break Yeonhwa’s protection.
The rock fragments clearly flew towards us, but hit the protection and broke once again, scattering around.
“I knew the power of the protection department… But it’s truly surprising that it even blocks an attack like this.”
“Ohhohohoho! This is why the Shu family is called ironclad!”
Yeonhwa has a unique, high smile.
He said to Rock Kong while holding the straightened blade of his hand to one cheek.
“Did you really think that you could hurt me with just that much attack? That you could break the Shu family’s protection? That’s such a simplistic and complacent idea! Ah! It’s just a big gorilla, so that’s only natural! Ohhohohohoho!”
An appearance that is not usually visible to allies.
However, in Rupan games, the relationship is not friendly from the beginning, so this is something you often see in the beginning.
The reason why Mesugaki style was included in Yeonhwa’s character attributes.
Seeing her opponent unable to break through her own barrier, she burst out in laughter that made her furious.
Click! Snap!
“You look beautiful, Lady Yeonhwa! It’s truly a figure worthy of the Shu family!”
Kyeong-hu began taking pictures of Yeonhwa with a camera.
