Demon King

Chapter 18. 3F Breakthrough 4

How many rare parent species have we fought in a short time?

I didn't have time to sit around counting. Lee Chan's body became bloody and recovered, and for the first time, I felt limited by my superior sneak attack skills. The only hope was that there was still room for growth in fairy tale skills.

However, as the name suggests, the number was very small compared to a normal monster or a higher species, since there were hardly any common encounters on the first floor and only a few on the second floor.

There were hundreds of them on the third floor, but the majority of them were huge, so there weren't that many monsters to fight once.

However, unlike the other monsters that had been led to War Cry in the Black Palace, we felt a bit frightened when they attacked us directly without showing hostility to each other.

They're not like the monsters we've met so far. Even without being influenced by mass demolition, you know how to work with other monsters at your own will! From now on, we have to fight the monsters who have reason to survive.

It was very difficult to deal with three or four rare superspecies at a time, but at the same time it was a good experience.

As I went through their various attack methods and skills, I could feel myself getting used to it and developing to respond.

[Rare Top Species of the Black Palace 3F Predatory 500/500]

The quest item was fulfilled even before the clock spun. By the time I circled there for half a turn, I had only one monster left in my senses.

A gorilla covered in light blue fur thunders and pounds on the floor. Through the black fog, a white frost settles everywhere.

“Kuoooooo!”

Not only that, every time a fist the size of his cauldron hits the floor, a giant ice spear bursts out, shattering the rocky floor without cause.

Unlike Lunatic Tricksters, their numbers are completely random, but they are unpredictable and deadly!

There were no surprises or fairy tales. It doesn't have snow hanging from the windows of the floating ice, but it has mercilessly attacked everything in its scope. He was the most fearsome of the rare and noble creatures I had ever met here.

“Tsk!”

I first enhanced my defense by using the Stone Skin, a skill I learned while devouring other monsters, but the skill's reaction slows me down.

It was a choice not to be pierced by a spear, but the penalty was a split tooth.

“Tsk!”

However, when I managed to escape the ice spear and pull out the whip of Heilang to attack him, Lee Chon Yuk ignored the spear, regardless of whether it pierced his body or not, and charged and shot him high into the air.

It happened in the blink of an eye. If there is no resurfacing greater than superior, it will not be a dream.

“Kuoooo!”

“Captain, now! ”

Gorilla monsters have a fierce cold that freezes the target's body just by being near it, and for a short period of time, the cold milk slammed in front of him freezes nearly half of the body. Moreover, two spears can't penetrate the body as they rush towards him.

It was a sight for sore eyes.

But only his attacks were successful. After all, the Gorilla's skill has stopped, and I am free to move.

I don't want to miss out on Lee Chan Yuk's chance. I loosened the stone skins, but instead jumped to the ground, drawing the energy of surprise and fairy tales.

Leap forward, using the beast's charge to speed up. The skill obtained from the Rare Parent Shadow encountered here on the 3rd Floor and even the Shadow Step.

With it, my movements became more stealthy and faster. Improved Shadow Walk skills will make it more perfect.

“Rrrrghhh!”

While staying in the air for a while, the gorilla, which began to fall by gravity, screamed unnoticed, with my appearance directly beneath its feet.

A fierce cold is spreading around his body, but its superior resistance prevents it from becoming difficult.

Just before he landed in the right position, I jumped to the ground one last time. Keeping the raid and fairy tales, I put all my strength into the blade of the Blood Shadow.

Hematitis, Black Lightning, Power Attack, and Speed Attack. If the slightest bit of power failed to be distributed, the blade could not be seen enough to vibrate without cause and scatter all the energy.

The sword falls. The gorilla's neck rests on the edge of the blade with all my power. He hadn't even noticed my attack until that moment, but a cold shield that automatically guards him put a candle in it.

“Kuoooooo!”

“Ahhhh!”

But now there's no escaping my attack! I unleashed my full-body Mana and shot out my sword. The cold he radiates melts away in an instant, with blood fever infused with the power of medium flame magic, and the Black Lightning scorches his hide and clears the way.

The next moment, both strength and speed reach their peak, a shadow of blood pierces his throat. But the cold that spreads like fuel with his last life!

I immediately let go of the sword and landed, dropping it to the ground like a puppet. How did you manage to kill him with a single blow?

[You got 72,171 XP.]

[You have obtained 86 Silver.]

[Beginner Speed Attack becomes Lv10 and evolves into Lesser Speed Attack. Less time required to trigger skills, and faster attack speed.]

[You have obtained Frozen Armor.]

[You have obtained the key to the Boss Room in Black Palace District 7.]

I kicked my tongue looking down at my hands on the ice. This is how much it emitted when the blood pressure was depleted. Due to the harmony between resistance and regeneration, it was killing the cold, but it was a trembling force.

How about some milk for me? I turned around and asked.

“You're alive?”

“Somehow.”

Lee Chan Yuk pulls out the spear of the second ice that was stuck in his body. I was also accustomed to pain, but even the renewable properties of Lee Chan-ok in battle were not strong.

“You're really strong. Is that the power of advanced skills? ”

“So is your regeneration. ”

“It was born into a werewolf body. I need to improve my attack skills to the next level. ”

Well, of course, advanced martial arts is strong. The same goes for high-level raids.

But it would not have been possible to produce this kind of force alone. A stealthy and quick move, a blow that captures everything in an instant. It was possible because everyone was with other skills.

Attack and Magic Skills, and Auxiliary Skills. All skills become more powerful when used in conjunction with other skills.

The synergy was more than just giving away two or three skills at once, although it could be considered natural. A synergistic effect that can't be explained by numbers.

There are two problems with simultaneous use of skills.

The first problem is that it is difficult to master two skills with similar effects or conflicting attributes.

It is not easy for a self-trained power attack to learn speed attacks.

It is not easy for a master jumper to learn the beast's charge.

Of course, this applies equally to weapons, fire and water magic, such as swordsmanship and archery.

I've taken away other monsters' skills because I'm predatory and was able to raise them with ease, but it turns out it's very difficult to master the skills in one area after learning weapons, magic, and other skills.

Before, I thought it wouldn't be that hard to learn martial arts if I only knew the conditions, but it was my mistake.

The second problem is simpler. It costs a lot to use a skill at the same time. Even though Manawa is strong, she can use both power and speed attacks at the same time. It wasn't just about owning both skills that ended it.

C.

“Anyway, this is it. ”

“Did you get the key? ”

“Yes."

I opened my inventory by answering him. There was definitely a key to the boss' room in the inventory. In addition, Frozen Armor, a piece of equipment from a gorilla slaughter a moment ago, also appeared in the inventory.

You also see the armor synthesizer scroll glowing.

‘Good timing. ’

I muttered to myself, pulling a shadow of blood from the gorilla's neck. The cold that remained bothered me, but now I don't care about it.

“Captain, are you going to eat that ice gorilla? ”

“Do you want to eat? ”

“Am I crazy? ”

First of all, I ate the gorilla on the spot. I was hoping that I could learn the popping ice spear from everywhere, but it was a dream. I had to settle for just learning beginner ice magic.

Then it's time. There are no monsters left around, and we are ahead of 3F's Boss War. There will be no more delay in the yard where it is possible.

I used the armor composite scroll.

[Please select Main Defense Gear, 5 Sacrificial Armor, and Material. You can select up to fifteen ingredients.]

[List of Combinable Armor]

[Blood Iron Armor]

[Echoing]

[Kesia's Leather Armor]

[Shadow in Darkness]

[Wolf Best]

[Frozen Armor]

[List of Composable Materials]

[Pelcardia's Jewel (Red)]

[Pelcardia's Jewel (Blue)]

[Trickster Eye]

[Werewolf's Mane]

[Armored Bear Captain's Hide]

[dark crust]

[In the shadow window…….]

What's a scroll that combines six pieces of primary defense gear into one? At first I thought it would be unique, just above Rare, but now I don't either.

Rain once told me the ranking order of rarity. Clearly, after Rare, after Unique, after Ancient, Legendary, Epic. No, but the synthetic scroll was eventually obtained from the 2F of this dungeon. Could be an ancient.

“What's that? Is that a synthetic scroll? ”

“That's right."

I nodded and picked out the main defense gear and the sacrificial armor. The main armor is undoubtedly Blood Iron Armor. Sacrificial defense gear is everything else.

I didn't know that each half of the Ezelic, not even full body armor, could be used as sacrificial armor, but since all sacrificial armor is more rare and has a few unique mixes, you can expect the results of the synthesis.

There were fifteen kinds of materials to choose from. I picked up all the good materials except for the Pelcardia gems and threw them into the Vortex of Synthesis. Trickster Eye, Dark Crust, etc. were the only ingredients for me as well.

As the amount of material that was sucked into the vortex increased, Lee Choong-ok quietly watched the scene, and I was not so different.

After getting a colleague named Lee Chan Yu, the burden I experienced in the dungeon was clearly reduced. He was brave and brave, and he was attacked by monsters. In fact, even though Blood Iron Armor's defensive power was almost meaningless from 3F, it was the help of Lee Chon Yuk and the nature of my surprise and assimilation.

It was also able to endure without difficulty.

However, I couldn't be relieved. If anything should happen, it can happen at any time.

The same was true of the ice gorilla that had just fought. If the cold oil hadn't moved so fast, I might have pierced my torso through the ice's spear.

It would not have led to death, but it would have been possible to charge without worrying about being incapacitated by injury if you were wearing good equipment.

A flash of light came out. Slowly in the whirlpool, the corners of the clothing reveal a dark red aura.

…… footwear?

I was embarrassed. It was definitely Blood Iron Armor, Plate Mail I picked up as my primary defense gear! Even if it was a slight drop in maneuverability, his life was important, so he didn't even consider making the cloth his primary defense gear.

However, no matter how much I look at it, I can still see the cloth! The main armor was plate mail. What do you mean, fabric? I got nervous and pulled the dress a little harder.

The size of the clothes was not important. If I'm going to wear it, it's going to fit me. just like I've been wearing the Blood Iron Armor I wore since I was a Hobgoblin until I became a Bugbear.

But the problem was that the piece of armor that was really finished was cloth.

The gloss was strange, but the material was definitely yarn. A piece of cloth woven in dark red like solid blood. A useless ornament was a practical outfit that stuck to the body, not entirely dependent on it.

Even though I didn't know the clothes well, I felt a strange elegance when I looked at them. There was nothing special. Rather, I was sucking in the light around me, so it was hard to even look at my clothes properly.

Rather than thinking that way, I realized that sucking out the light is not something you usually wear.

I quickly examined the information from the synthetic clothing and was appalled.

[Baptism of Blood (580/580) Defense Power 650. Rarity Ancients. They absorb light, making it hard to recognize this outfit and its wearer. Absorbs blood to restore its durability. Increase Speed by 30%.]

The armor composite scrolls were definitely on my side.

In the face of 3F's Boss Battle, I received the ancient grade of defense gear if I listened to Lee Chan Yuk's words, "1,000 people must die to get one."
