Episode 99 Strategy First Part

Eastern □■Kingdom, Trading Road, Forest Zone

(Well then......)

There were three opponents.

[Armor Giant] Barbaroy Bad Barn.

[Assassin King] Yoshiro Tsukisho.

And [King of the Robbery] Eldridge.

Since the transport plane is still turning in the sky, there are probably Niallas who also exchanged words with Splendida on the ship, but I first thought that it was the three semi-classes in front of me.

Alternatively, there may have been a secret against Splendida in the transport plane, but unfortunately Splendida has no means of attacking the transport plane at that height.

(If Lady Juba had been alive, she would have fired all kinds of anti-aircraft artillery.)

Not only did I recover my MP, but I was also a good matchmaker to make up for it.

Anyway, I can't help but worry about the sky now, so I concentrate on the three people in front of me.

(It has been confirmed yesterday that Lady Barbaroy does not have a fight. If Mister Moonlight could handle it, I'd have done it earlier. Then beware... Mr. Eldridge. However, my Till Na Norg is neither a weapon nor a piece of equipment. He can't destroy or rob.)

Embrio of Weapon Destruction. The robbery of an item's job.

Either way, Splendida's safety zone is unbreakable.

But they don't look like they're going to let the will to fight down.

Beasley holds a shield, the moon follows the shadow, and Eldridge takes the stance of the Greater Takeover with both arms.

(I wonder if there are any lines that I got special perk weapons for...?)

The first kill in the game is frightening.

With a tactic that has never been opposed, we don't know what to crush.

Splendida was familiar with it, and that's why (...) she was on the front line in this war.

(Chris's approval will definitely break me [Alter]. What can defeat ME IN this war that won 'T come UP ON the front line?)

Have you noticed the tactics that only you know (...)?

Or do you have a completely unexpected hand?

It's something Splendida cares a lot about.

"But that's it..."

"By the way, how have you been? I'd like to ask you a few questions?"

What is it?

I'm already in a three-on-one position, but there's a girl I don't want to have with me anymore.

Having said that, Splendida pointed at the girl in her left hand with her right hand.

The poison bullet of [Poison Barrett] was forming at his fingertips.

"It was an explicit hostage..."

“What is that?”

"...... nnn?"

Beasley responded coldly and Eldridge and the moonshadow did not change their facial expressions as well.

Well, Splendida began to think something was wrong.

If you keep fighting like this, can I tell you that I'm going to put a bullet in this girl?

"That's right. There is no way to prevent it, and there are no penalties for harming Tian in the war zone." I'm sorry, but I can't help it... (...) "

"Nnnnnn? Wait a minute? That's what you're serious about, isn't it?"

Since the [Truth] was unresponsive, I realized that Beasley's remarks were not strong. This was unexpected to Splendida.

"If you abandon a child like this, a bad person will pass...... ah"

Splendida said, and now she sees her face in front of her.

Former leader of the villain Role Clan.

Number Two of Cult Religion.

The owner of the bandit clan.

"Idiot!? There are only bad guys!?"

"Don't go with these guys."

The voices of Barbaroy and Eldridge synchronized.

It should be noted that the moon shadow remains with a smile on its face.

At this point, Splendida understood.

"I was wrong to say that hostage warfare works for them."

"Damn! It should have worked for the real Mr. Ray!"

I misunderstood the clan owner because he was "unyielding".

A human nature belonging to a clan named Death Period. Some members may be able to help, but in the end, they decide coldly which way their balance tilts.

Usually, the existence of Ray Sterling, who devotes all his energy to defeating the "tragedy with a bad aftertaste", determines the policy, but if he is not there, the story is different.

In his absence, each person moves according to his own judgment.

"As long as Mr. Ray is here!" I want to look good in front of him if he's here. It would have worked for Barbaroy! "

"Hey, more than that."

Beside Beasley scolding Splendida in a barbaroy tone, Eldridge said, "Huh? Is that what you're like now? 'and looked at her with an unexpected look on her face.

"...... Kohon. In the first place, even with him, I won't change my response to you."

Huh?

"The remarks that you've been making against the girl," "were all" "false" "in the" Authenticity "". "

"...... ah, yeah. Well."

That's true.

It's a condition for completing a Rare Event Quest that happened to me. There is no intention of harming it.

Killing a single hostage in the first place would mean nothing.

If this is someone close to the opponent, it could do some mental damage, but even a stranger can only buy anger.

More straightforward narratives are not the effect of failing a Rare Quest.

At the time when the desired reaction was not obtained even after threatening to "take hostages", there was no point in taking hostages.

"Hah..."

Splendida turned her right fingertips away from the girl, and the poison bullet she was generating hit the poison swamp behind her. The poisonous swamp swayed with a mass of venom.

Ahh, this can't be helped, can it?

Splendida decided that she had to resort to something she didn't really want to do.

Immediately after that, Splendida's counterpart rapidly withered (...) and fell to the ground lying on her back holding the girl.



However, the three of them could not have silently overlooked the movement, and the shadows of Erlkönig and Eldridge moved.

The shadow deformed into the shape of a spear pierced the girl's heart and brain, and Eldridge's arm scratched the sky, and the throat (...) of the duplicate was held in his palm.

All of them were fatal injuries, and the doppelgänger had changed into the appearance of a dead body without a neck and a dead head.

However, the movement pulled by gravity does not stop, and it sinks straight into the surface of the water and disappears into its own shadow.

Then, a few seconds later, a vivid Splendida figure appears from the shadows without a single scratch.

The figure of the girl was no longer visible, but all three of them understood that [Splendida had left the girl].

(Oh my...)

Now they know that Splendida can't let that girl die.

If it was okay to die, it was okay to leave it there instead of letting the three of them go into the shadows where they could not interfere.

Above all, this is a hand I wanted to avoid as Splendida.

I don't think so, but if a girl were to be turned into a human bomb like a [super] trick... it would be a defeat for Splendida at this point.

It is the greatest risk to Splendida to put others in her area.

Moreover, this also illustrates a fact.

After all, it depends on the shadow, the conditions, and other people can also enter (...)

"No Comments"

That's right. This action has given Splendida a big hint at his tactics. The opponent is a little too aggressive to expect to be unaware of it.

"Anyway, there's no need to worry about getting involved with this." Let's start the battle. ”

Splendida spread her arms with her words.

Moonlight and Eldridge's attacks cut through the body before the sole, but Splendida exercises her skills without hesitation.

[Fatal Mist]!

The purple fog that sprayed out of his body, the mystery of annihilation that spread ten kinds of compound poison.

A deadly poison that won't kill you instantly if you suffer from it.

The [Venom King] trump card was immediately used because there was no more girl involved.

Both of you.

"There's no need to be told."

However, the three opposing opponents quickly gained immunity to status abnormalities by using the [Healing Potion].

(Well, I'll do that. The [Light King] destroyed the Supply Depot, so the Kingdom was absolutely superior in terms of supplies. They'll have more than one, and they can resupply in the cities. If you keep using it, the poison other than Destiny won't work.)

Additionally, Eldridge, who is not in the kingdom, has also been greatly improved in terms of funding, so we have a variety of [Quick Healing Universal Potion].

And [Fate], whether it's a [Healing Potion] or not, cannot be lightly shot because there are three opponents.

I would say that his poison is not good enough in this situation.

(Well, that's just an interpersonal story.)

The [Faithful Mist] was filling up, but it didn't work for the three of you who took the [Healing Potion].



However, the equipment they were wearing began to deteriorate and collapse as they raised the black smoke.

"It's a lot to say about poison." It also handles fiber melting, metal deterioration, and equipment destruction (...) poisoning. "

Faithful Mist is a skill that emits a poisonous fog that combines all of its effects by selecting ten types of poisons in its possession.

His predecessor, [Venom King], [Aranea Idea (Aro Urmil)], liked to blend a lot of behavioral inhibitory poisons to kill them, but Splendida was blending them in a direction that would reduce the opponent's continued fighting power.

Because in a long battle, it is he who will eventually win.

If I could destroy even the item box, I could also crush the [Healing Potion] refill.

"I see...!"

Beasley took care of the dragon car and the [Second Model].

It seemed like there was no one in the Dragon Car anymore.

"Even if a human becomes invincible for three minutes against a status abnormality, the equipment deterioration has begun." High-performance equipment will take time, but it will eventually be destroyed. ”

"Is it a poison that makes the opponent naked?" It's very obscene. "

"Isn't that reputational damage?"

It should be noted that the person who uttered the keyword is a real moon shadow.

That's why Beasley and Eldridge also said, "Are you that kind of character?" 'and a stunned expression on his face.

(Well, if you think about it simply, you can shut off the light again and shut off the playback. But Mr. Moon shadow has no role for Mr. Eldridge anyway)

Contains poison for gear deterioration, keeping Moonlight and Beasley at a distance to escape the fog.

No, that's how I pretend to be. I split it between left and right and I'm going around.

The moon shadow moves counterclockwise and Beasley moves clockwise to avoid fog.

And Eldridge stores high-value gear in [Momentary Fit],

─ ─ Approaching Splendida in a straight line through the poisonous fog.



Eldridge is not dependent on his Block Proficiency for equipment.

The skeleton of the whole body skeleton, and the strength of the flesh to be corrected, is his armor.

Just as it allowed non-parachute landings from the air, its physical strength is different from the beasley, which relies on AGI-type moonshadows and equipment.

If the flesh is not invaded by the [Healing Potion], this fog is not an obstacle to him.

"-Luck (Death)"

Splendida's judgment is quick.

Judging Eldridge to be a difficult opponent, he prepares to use his one-shot ticket, Destiny.

But the moment he tried to point his finger at Eldridge, his wrist disappeared.



In addition, the left ankle disappears and Splendida's Doppelganger falls to the ground without balance.

― ― Eldridge's kick was in his face.

Eldridge's right wrist and left ankle were grabbed by the [Greater Takeover].

While letting go of them, I kicked down my right foot and smashed the cervical bone of the Doppelgänger.

……

Splendida that looks like junk in a quadruple blow.

However, branches stretch from the destroyed area and restore it to human potatoes.

Then, on the verge of aiming with the moving left hand, Erlkänig's shadow slashed his left wrist.

Moreover, the shields that had flown in, the shields unleashed by Beasley's [Shield Flyer], crushed her abdomen.

(...... You're a full-bokko, aren't you?)

Splendida is a superjob, but a job between magic and production.

If the three avant-garde fighters were to coordinate, they would literally have no hands or legs.

(But ah...... le)

But no matter how much it hurts, Splendida's counterpart doesn't die.

Light regeneration does not kill the body.

Even though it was through the mist of poison in the forest, the midday sunshine was enough to regenerate.

Now we may keep attacking and blocking Splendida's attack, but we can't keep doing it forever.

Especially with the timing of the reuse of the [Healing Potion], a gap would arise.

If you release [Destiny] at that time and eliminate Eldridge, it can be pushed aside.

With that in mind, however, while being attacked, he kept the Doppelgänger in an offensive position in order to attract the opponent's drain.

When I did, I suddenly noticed.

"... late?"

My body is moving slowly. There is a discrepancy between the image and the movement.

Moreover, I even feel that my body is more fragile than usual.

I thought I was trapped in the Atlas Gravity Zone, but I don't think Eldridge would get involved in a meat battle.

…………

After thinking that far, I noticed further discomfort.

(No, in the first place... how did you get so close to beating the octopus?)

I know of a rumor about Eldridge.

The type that literally shreds the target with a spatial transcendence attack from a medium range.

Physical stats may be high, but they shouldn't have given priority to getting close, hitting, and damaging the opponent.

In order to kill and shred the opponent in priority, it is only a risky strategy against Splendida, who will not die.

"Thinking about his behavior and the reason for his own disfigurement..."

"Ahh!"

I could think of three skills (...) for the [usurper].

First Skill: "Greater Big Pocket".

A spatial transcendence skill that steals visible items.

Second skill, [Greater Takeover].

A spatial transcendence skill that sharpens visible body parts.

And the third skill, [Greater Old Rain].

---This skill takes away the opponent's status (...).

"I see...!"

A skill that can only be activated once a day for one person.

Whenever this toon attacks an opponent under the influence of a skill and removes HP, it strikes the opponent's stats based on the percentage of HP removed.

(...... Bad!)

Yes, the [Greater Old Rain] is removed from its maximum HP (...).

"An immortal loop that can continue to regenerate even from zero HP with [Last Command]." but.... "

Splendida's body, which accurately recognized her situation, was sweating coldly, and Beasley's words reached her counterpart's ears.

"--Can you continue with (...) even if your maximum HP is zero (...)?"

Beasley's question is the answer.

Tactics I didn't expect until this moment - the means to achieve the complete death of the Doppelgänger.

And Beasley's involvement in Eldridge was the biggest factor.

Before this war, Beasley had a knack for hitting Eldridge in Splendida.

I didn't know until yesterday that Splendida was a duplicate or that it was regenerated by light.

However, it was known that the immortality was embodied by the Death Soldier and the fast HP recovery.

That's why I've been asking Eldridge for help before the war, saying that Splendida could be defeated with zero max HP.

A strategy that Splendida devised at a time when he was known to have joined the ranks of the Empire.

It was as effective as it was now that the other properties of Splendida were exposed.
