Gate of Amitilicia Online

Episode 16: Rock Lizard

Rock Lizard is following me. He's stubbornly following me, moving like a tree as a shield. However, propulsion and manoeuvrability like in the rocks have been lost as thought.

It is natural to take advantage of the local interests. There's no way I can compete head-on with such a monster. No, even if I can, it's not a situation where I can't. I've never been more careful than not being able to accurately grasp the difference in my power.

Had GAO been level based, it might have been some guideline, but there was nothing I could do about it on a skill basis. I just have to grasp the feeling around it myself.

"Rah!

Strike in a kick with [Magic Strike] for where you put your face out of the shadow of the tree. It was decided brilliantly in the form of kicking up my mandible, but I've been stripping my fangs just wondering what's wrong with that.

"Damn, it gets hard!?

Avoid rock lizard smudging while spilling stupidity. The nails are also troublesome, but sealing the fangs is the best way to start.

Anticipate timing while tying the rope taken out of the storage pouch. If you tie your mouth, that fang threat should go away. I've heard crocodiles have weak ability to open their mouths even if they're strong enough to chew. Lizards and crocodiles would be similar...... I hope so......

Anyway, I'll try everything I can! I avoided sideways where I barged in, made a ring out of rope and I jumped. Ride on Rock Lizard's back and pull the rope right through his mouth. The wheel squeezed instantly, sealing Rock Lizard's mouth. Convinced of the success of the operation while keeping it from shaking off on its rampaging back. I can't do anything about the rope. Rock Lizard's mouth remains closed.

"Damn!?

It was shortly after that that the impact penetrated his entire body. He is hit hard on the back and slapped off the lizard's back. Reorient your body as you roll the ground and keep an eye on your enemies. It's not a fang. It's not even a nail. The blow now was due to the tail.

"It arrives in that position……………"

Look at the enemy's tail as he stands up. It's as thick as a bad tree. That was a fine murder weapon. That was sweet of you to think the top of your back would be a blind spot...

Then let's hit our hands to make it a little easier.

'Hold!'

In spiritual language, that's what I scream. The next moment, the soil around Rock Lizard moved. Flow as if the exuberant soil were alive to seal the extremities of the rock Lizard, and the tail.

It's a dirt spirit magic I signed up for under the name Hold. The effect is the restraint of the opponent by dirt...

"I still don't have enough strength..."

Regardless of the limbs, the tail played dirt and rumbled around. I'm a little shocked they scattered light restraints, though it's fine if they don't get within range of attack. I guess it's a challenge in the future because of the low level.

All in all, you can see that Rock Lizard's motion is almost sealed. The tail can't reach the head, and the nails are unusable in the hold. I can't even use my fangs unless I untie the rope. All you have to do is stab the stomach.

Put [Magic Strike] in your fist and shake it down on Rock Lizard's head. Even the rocks impacted like they had beaten him to the fist. Exactly worked a little, Rock Lizard turns himself around. I can see him shaking his neck and tail in a hurry and also being forced to escape restraint on his limbs. It would be fine for a while, but I was also anxious to see how long the restraint would remain. Most importantly, I can't see how many times I can tap into the current blow to get to a standstill.

Besides, you can't take too long. My job is to escort Mr. Leias. It's okay because there's still no other sign of him right now, and it doesn't necessarily mean he won't have a new enemy by the time he gets this guy back. It's a good way to improve your skills, but I know what to prioritize.

"Can't help it, can you?"

I put my hand in my hip pouch and pulled out what I was looking for. That's a pile. Iron products with pointed tips and flat surfaces on opposite sides. Looks like a big nail.

Stick that in Rock Lizard's eye. I got [Dismantling], so the limiter won't hang on the brutal depiction. Eyes choked, blood erupted, rock Lizard rumbled. I slammed my fist into the pile as I forced myself to hold it in. When iron piles are punched deep, rock lizards tremble loudly, they become adults. My tail was moving pimply for a while, but eventually it stopped too.

Phew, and I exhale loudly. I have a point of reflection, but you managed it alone. It's a harvest to find out that if you pull into your field, even this big of a guy can be defeated as long as it takes time.

"Leias! This one's cleaned up -! Back that way!

[Signal perception] So make sure no additions come and scream for the results report to the employer. Well, and. Shall we go back to Mr. Leias?

"... this is, again..."

When I returned, Mr. Leias fixed his gaze on Rock Lizard, the prey, as he leaked his frightened voice. You'd be surprised if the tailored prey stayed intact.

But this rock Lizard, it's just the big guy and it's too heavy...... I've magically carried it all over the ground, but as it goes through the woods it becomes rocky, so far is the haul.

"How can the tailored prey remain intact...?

"It's a little skill effect. I'm going to dismantle it, but the ethics code is unlocked, so it's going to be a gross sight. If you don't want to see it, you should go back to mining. Oh, it's okay. I didn't fail to be on perimeter alert."

"... may I give you a tour?

You're interested in dismantling it, Mr. Leias said while cleaning up Warhammer.

"I don't mind. But I'd appreciate it if you didn't say anything else."

Perhaps if you look at the task of [disassembling] you should be able to select it as a skill. Even the players will be able to verify if that makes it, and we shall have a closer look here.

Whoa, let's take an SS before we do that. Such a big guy, yes, you won't be able to see it... ok, I got it.

"Do you want to get started?"

Take down the storage rucksack and I'll take out the tools I need. Do you want to treat it from your nails first?

Cut off your nails with the removed bow saw. Apparently this will be an accessory material. It's going to be expensive because it's big. Pretty stiff, but over time, cut off one bottle at a time. Naturally, in the meantime, we also remain on perimeter alert. I can't wait to be attacked in the middle of demolition, and above all, perimeter vigilance is the priority of this one.

If you cut off your nails, the skin will be next. but where do I skin this guy from? My back side has a stiff outer skin, so I guess my belly is more susceptible to tearing.

Flip the mess heavy rock lizard somehow. How many kilometers does this guy have?

Yeah, it looks softer than the back side after all. Do you peel around the boundary with the hard part?

I put the knife in so it wouldn't get too deep, and first I only peeled my belly skin off. Then it moves to the outer skin. When I put a few cuts between the skin and the meat and pulled them, the skin peeled off easily for the cut. It's quite a hassle because if this is a lot of fat, I have to peel it off to shred every fat, but I don't see any fatty fat on this guy, so he seems to be able to work quite boldly.

Do you want to drain the blood before you peel it? Tear the flesh out of your belly and strip out your guts. Don't remind me of any student biological material, like the formalin-pickled frogs. Uh, the heart, the heart, and... there it is, this is it. It's green, but this is the heart.

Open the barrel lid you left out of the backpack. The contents are just water. Manipulate it with spiritual magic and keep it waiting. Carry on, lift your heart, let it out of your body, and then put the blade in. Blood poured out of the rift, but poured the manipulated water into it.

It's a task to use water to shed blood in the blood vessels. A normal prey can hang on a tree or something, and if I cut a large blood vessel, I can drain blood, but when I get too big, my current muscle strength status is tough. I tried it the other day to see if I could squeeze it out, so I decided to use it when I didn't have time or when I drained a lot of blood. Fortunately, even low-level spiritual magic was possible to the extent of simply manipulating the water there. It would be easier if I could manipulate the blood itself, but it's too bad the Spirit wouldn't have worked for me if it wasn't just water.

All right, end of blood drain, and. The water used cannot be reused, so discard it on the ground as it is.

Let's treat the guts before the skin. In this case, the only thing that sells is the gallbladder. They can't eat the liver. Other guts don't sell because there's no demand or anything.

Gently remove the gall bladder and place it in a leather bag for storage. Remove all other guts and keep them in one place.

Then let's get back to peeling. The part that peels with my hand is my hand, and when I can't do that alone, I peel more cuts in with the knife. The work with lifting the heavy body was quite tight, so the work proceeded with spiritual magic tilting from soil to soil.

Later, he moves to the dismantling of the meat, leaving the skin completely peelable only in part of his back. Spread your legs and pull out your bones. Keep the bones together with the guts and pack the meat into a hemp bag. The tail and torso are slashed with a scarecrow and go to the hemp bag. I think I'll keep my head... in memory. Finally, I washed the skin with water and decided to leave it to dry for a while.

"Okay, that's it, all the way"

It took me quite a while because I was a big guy, but the demolition ended safely. Drop the guts, etc. into a hole that was magically dug by the spirits of the earth and re-bury it, and it's done later. I don't like the player who just happened to show up looking at the organs and panicking, etc. Sometimes my prey comes over because of the smell of blood. I did my best to escape when I called in a group of more than ten wolves... and since then, the post-demolition process has been decent.

"You're handy. Seemed familiar."

"Because I have dismantled seven of them to date, both large and small. This is the eighth one, so I'm used to it."

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot.

"Mr. Leias, are demolition skills displayed in the Production System Skills list on the Skills Acquisition menu?

Mr. Leias launches and manipulates the menu for my inquiry.

"... you're out. Is this Tane?"

As expected, even demonstrations by players seem to unlock skills. Even if we publish this, we can spread the word among skilled players, thus reducing the burden on the residents. But, well, I guess I'll see how it goes a little bit more.

"Yeah, I think it's a useful skill for production systems if you don't bitter about the downside of an ethical code being lifted."

"Right, it's going to be quite a boon to production-based players who make leather based equipment and decorative finishes. However, if you're not going hunting yourself, it would be the skills that players who hunt on the front lines would want to have."

That's right. In fact, how many production systems are out on the field?

"Well, the work over here is done. Mr. Leias, please continue mining."

"Oh, let me do that"

With Tsuruhashi in his hand again, Mr. Leias returned to the pit.

Well, I'm more on perimeter alert... but I have lizard meat I just hunted. Just a little bit, okay?

"Good job, is that enough?

Speak to Mr. Leias, who came out of the pit.

"Oh, with all this, I'll be fine for the time being"

Mr. Leias slaps the storage bag while I say it. I knew you had it. That's right, massive quantities of ore are not heavy enough to carry.

"The ore we put out there is put together there."

"Thank you. So, what's that smell like?

When I pointed to the ore, Mr. Reyes' interest turned to this one.

In front of me was a simple piece of meat made of rock, where I had roasted rock lizard meat stabbed on a skewer. Firewood is sourced locally.

"This is the Rock Lizard tasting I just had. How about that?"

"Let's have it. I was just starving."

In the meantime, I made four. Pass two of them to Mr. Leias.

"I didn't season it. Use this one if you like."

Condiments in this world are not so much commercially available. All I have is salt, pepper, and chili. I think I can make a lot of things around here with [food processing], but I don't know anything about it, so I'm on hold. I want to make soy sauce, miso, and sauce. And pong vinegar. Try searching online.

That's real food anyway. Let's try it as it is first, without putting anything on it.

It looked close to chicken as of raw. The smell of roasting and drifting was also chicken's... OK, I'll have it.

Place one stab in the skewer in your mouth and chew slowly. Yeah, chicken. The texture is like a saucer. It's just not lighter than a sashimi. Rather intense in flavor.

"You can keep it up."

"Right."

They ate without anything on them, just like me. I agree with Mr. Reyes' whining.

"It seems like it would be good to eat fries or the same way as sashimi."

"Sounds like a pot or something. Mm... if you eat with salt or pepper, you're going to believe it even if they say it's yakitori"

"Which...... yeah, this is delicious too. Oh, if it's going to be yakitori-style, it's going to go well with sunflowers and plum paste."

"That's good. But... when this happens, don't you think there's something missing?

It was the bottle and the goblet that Mr. Leias took out of the storage bag while I was telling you. I instantly understood what I wanted to say.

I take out the extra Rock Lizard meat I left on my storage rucksack. And frying pans and other cooking tools.

"Mr. Reyes, other ways to eat, what do you say?

"Let's have it. You can go this way. Mouth?

"Naturally."

The beverage party in the name of Rock Lizard tasting lasts until the evening.

As a result, we had to reckless in front of the Night Field Enforcement Army & Einfast Gateway.
