<Infinite Dendrogram>

Episode XXIII: Igor Ronak

□ ■ - Basement level 2

Impossible surprise attack on.

The kingdom's masters were able to react to it because of the strange appearance of the raiders.

No head...... large powered suit like the head buried in the torso, Igor Ronak.

Even the Igoronak and the stranger realize that at first glance it is unusual.

Igoronak and those who know, take an immediate interception stance.

At the same time as Patriot's voice, they would not immediately react to the hostiles,

- Preemptive enemy attacks are executed sooner than that.

Heavy Firearms held by Igoronak on both sides...... Shooting of Gatling cannons.

It crushes the [brooch] of kingdom power with a power that does not seem like a gunpowder formula, tearing the flesh apart.

The rays are blurred as if the aim is not set, but the power doesn't change that.

"Astroguardo"!!

Barbaroy activates his skills with a large shield while hiding a ray on its back.

Nor can a powerful sweep break her defense, which boasts one of the kingdom's finest defenses. Critical but powerless by damage subtraction skills.

It will also be able to withstand until the continuous firing is interrupted.

But......

'Huh! How long...!

Uninterrupted.

Igoronac's firepower is uninterrupted.

The firepower that ravages the kingdom will exceed 100 rounds per second.

However, after more than a minute of continuous fire… after 6000 rounds, the bullet is uninterrupted.

The Gatling guns at the two gates continue to sweep, saying that even the shell life, as opposed to the number of remnants, is irrelevant.

As if you are unwilling to stop until you have hunted down the life of this place.

"Chi...!

Barbaroy observes Igoronak's arming as he becomes a wall to shooting with the Great Shield and [Magnum Colossus].

Gatling cannons held on both sides have not even had red fever.

No, I'm back with red fever to be exact (...).

In addition, the Gatling cannon feed tubes are both turned on their backs, but I don't see a large magazine there like Shu's Baldor II form.

I just have Igor Ronak's back covered with something like a cape.

"Senior!"

Behind Barbaroy, Ray is preparing his own armament.

That's a [black wrap] wrapped around your left hand - the launch posture of Shining Dispair, Ray's maximum available firepower.

That blow would shoot Igoronak through the shadow of Barbaroy's defense.

Ray doesn't think it's a good idea either.

Apart from him, where Barbaroy acts as a wall, there are those who survived the first blow.

They prevent attacks on their peers with their earthly attribute magic walls and apparent barrier, but that won't last as long as Barbaroy.

If we don't stop soon, the sacrifice will only increase.

'Keep that! It's not like I used it in my first day of war!

But Barbaroy stops using trump cards.

'This place... I'll take care of it! Kinetic Resist!

And Barbaroy uses his defensive skills against physics against himself and takes a step (...).

The "Astroguard (Immovable Defense)" is released.

Adding anti-physical skills reduces defense, and shields and armor are shredded slightly by the bullets that swarm.

"Don't lick it!!

But still, Barbaroy doesn't stop walking and packs the distance from Igoronak.

A few seconds forward and a bullet.

In the meantime, Barbaroy switches his own shield with Instant Equipment.

"It's your show, [NORMERSY]!!

The shield held in Barbaroy's right hand was engraved with the colour of a monster like a bamboo.

That's Barbaroy's second legendary weapon, [Wallproof Phase Crushing Normercy].

Barbaroy has won the “Tournament" [Fort Break Jaw Dragon Normersy] reward.

"Stronghold Pressure Ahhh"!!

Barbaroy storms Igor Ronak with [Normercy] in place.

That's [Shield Giant] 's attack skill with defense as his offensive power.

But Igor Ronak is not afraid.

He recognizes himself that his own solidity is no less than that of an epic grand armor.

Where he was hit with comparable defense, it's not going to be a lot of damage.

Instead, you can aim for the rear at a time when you've fallen ill in the assault.

Igor Ronak, who thought so,

- It was crushed by a single blow of contact.

Shortly after Igoronak questioned him, the wreckage that was Igoronak and the destroyed gatoring cannon were scattered on the floor of the labyrinth.

"... first of all, good work"

Barbaroy appreciates the outcome of his attacks.

Her [Normercy] is a great shield for attack.

In his lifetime he had the robustness and mighty fangs of a fort.

Since that time, the name of the skill is "Brittle Things, Don't Destroy".

Ability to subtract the Defense of a subject in contact with [Normercy] by 'Owner's Defense' for 60 seconds.

Barbaroy The owner of the following defenses will have a negative defense when [NORMERSY] touches it...... less than or equal to the cloth cut.

Similar to "Sword Speed Thorough", which also uses cashmere, but unlike that one, even sharpens the defense of the equipment.

Thus, a merciless (Normercy) blow crushes all the equipment.

Now, as one of the super men was crushed.

…………

Barbaroy conceives, looking down at the crushed Igoronac.

Besides his Special Abilities, he also fought “Tournaments” and < UBM > when he tried to have Attack Ability.

The result is that you can say that you have done this < super > to your opponent.

But......

"Heaven, be a heavy stone."

Barbaroy exercised his own gravitational skills on Igoronac's fragments.

It's not corpse kicking...... etc.

If it's a corpse in the first place... it should be gone by the time it's crushed so far (...).

"Get back inside now! It's not over yet!

Not a single person complains about Barbaroy's call.

Because they who survived... those who responded quickly know.

Igoronac said that he was - a personal survival type (...).

He said he was a kind of "evergreen tree” who survived that [Beast King] against him.

As the proof left - fragments disappeared from Barbaroy's gravitational zone.

Fragments remain fragments, rearward… appear near those who were protected by dirt walls and barriers.

After a moment - it was restored to Igoronak, who looked exactly the same as when he showed up.

"Become!?

There are no moments to play. No fragments stick together, or swell like cell division, and what was a fragment comes back to normal in an instant.

It's like re-emerging a game (Lispawn).

"- Battle resumes"

The weapon worn in the hands of the resurrected Igoronak is not a gatoring gun.

It was - a roaring and spinning chancer.

"This......!

Like the previous shooting, the barrier waller (tank) attempted to become a companion's wall.

But his defenses - torn apart like crippled paper by Chensaw.

"Ho, ha...!?

Defense, or disregard for defense skills.

He realizes as he is torn apart that it is a conferred product of such an effect.

It was clear that it was an armed force to break Barbaroy, who had prevented a bullet from playing the role of a wall, or crushed himself.

"Not good!

I can't help but be torn apart by Chensaw and utter words.

Still, he still assumes his role as his own wall player.

Chensaw tearing his own torso, clinging to Igoronak's arm waving it, rocking it by itself with a barrier.

"Owonaaaa! Guys, fuck you!

It was his companions who responded to that voice… including the Patriots.

"-" Talented. "

Patriot activates his own Netalou Special Ability.

Grant him and all party members a status boost, not an EXP boost, that was in the [English] standby state in advance.

Its effects, all status multiplication.

A party that has maximized its power taps its own maximum firepower into Igoronak for each of its fellow tanks.

Members outside the party also respond to the movement.

Understand that this is the best solution to the current situation.

…………

Igor Ronak is smashed to pieces by the total attack of… a second complete destruction.

Igoronak scattered on the floor again, along with the shattered chensau.

"[Petrification]! [Freeze]! Whatever! Make his fragments completely inactive within the moment!

One Master responds to Patriot's call to [petrify] Igoronac Fragments with his Special Ability.

Dealing with the resurrecting personal survival type is said to be a sealed option.

Patriot knew through < DIN > that Emily was also temporarily sealed by the freezing power of one.

And Igoronak's fragments were completely stoned... and now they never disappeared.

The kingdom succeeded in sealing Igoronak while making sacrifices.

The number of survivors was less than half... combined down to thirteen, but still outnumbered the raid.

"Restoring the Wall Role Hurry! And take the MP potion!

"A second line may come. Should we also consider evacuating to deeper strata"

I will rebuild my posture, expressing my opinions orally.

Even in the meantime, one was bound to keep an eye on Igoronak, who [petrified].

Because there is also the possibility of a resurrection the moment you take your eyes off.

"But how did he get into this Tomb Labyrinth?

"... you didn't come in as belonging to the kingdom or something?

"Nevertheless, there must be a contact from a member placed near the entrance"

As we rebuild our posture, the topic shifts to Why We Were Surprised.

'... I guess this guy didn't come in like this from the start either'

"Barbaroy, what does that mean?

Answer the < Master > question of < AETL Coalition >, pointing to the remains of the crushed and [petrified] Igoronac.

'You'll see. There is no contents. There's no one in there. "

As Barbaroy says, Igor Ronak is a power suit but without wearers.

She was aware of it at the time of its crushing.

"The Guardian of Living Armor or Remotely Operating Arms? Either way, we should just go in there with the contents, and then we should think we took this guy out and let him ram. '

"That means...!

"Somewhere from the entrance to the second basement, there must be a master who dived in as belonging to the kingdom.... This is in the city, outside the battlefield. Even if you belong to the kingdom, if you're not a ranker, you don't have to write a [contract] to avoid peer-to-peer deception. '

Arrange Igoronak as the general of the kingdom.

I read that the defense target was drawn to this Tomb Labyrinth, and only for that reason, I split one.

Quite odd, the chances of a surprise attack are high.

But......

(Are you sure you want to tie one of the < super > to the King's Capital just for that?

Ray, who was listening, had some doubts about Barbaroy's assumptions.

The general < master > of a kingdom that is not a ranker.

Then Igoronak's Master will not be able to go outside this king's capital.

Is it worth doing just that as a personal survival use?

Regardless, it would be worth it if you could crush 'life'.

Preliminary information, however, suggests Igoronak himself was a candidate for 'life'.

This narrows' life 'down to another personal survival type, the “evergreen tree” Splendida.

"Maybe he runs into this king's capital as a cleaner hunting the Master."

"... indeed"

Besides the Tomb Mark Labyrinth, which should have been a safe area, there are also many restoration facilities and weapons restoration facilities.

If such bases are to be dysfunctional, it is unlikely that they will be cracked.

But it still didn't fall somewhere.

There seemed to be some other means of scratching the back.

"... and"

Ray had questions about Igoronak, besides the means of surprise and immortality.

"What's going on, Ray?

I think Igor Ronak looks familiar to me.

In response to Nemesis's inquiry, Ray answers the vestigial sense of vision that arose within himself.

I didn't notice it during the fight, but when I finished... there's something caught in the corner of my memory.

"Isn't it super material on the Imperial side? So I guess everyone noticed, huh?

"Oh. But somewhere long ago,...?

Second, Ray noticed what was falling at his feet.

It was fragments of metal...... fragments of Igoronac that were not [petrified] because they were scattered far away.

If you don't [petrify] this too, I'll think so and hold it.

…………

However, I am concerned a little bit and see the fragments in the lupe (magnifying glass) with the appraisal eye that I own.

It was conceded as such by the Count to commemorate it after being loaned part-time in Gideon.

"Appraisal Eye" would be meaningless to "Embrio"

"I know.... Yeah, I knew I didn't see anything"

Not an item.

Naturally, it didn't work and I didn't see anything.

Thus, when I tried to keep the fragments in the < master > of petrification.

"Hmm?"

Something I couldn't see...... I could see (...).

The name visible in "Appraisal Eye" stated - [Brilliant Jade Soldier Replica (...) - Igoronac type].

"Become!?

Sudden change in display.

Meaning of the visible name.

Both are matters that can only be stunned, but most importantly now......

"Senior! Something's still coming!

Signs of anomaly that can reward the change.

As proof of that,

"- Battle resumes"

- Igoronak appeared from across the aisle where he first appeared.

[Petrified] The fragments, the fragments in Ray's hand... even though they stayed there.

Igoronak launches a third attack, as if to leave no battle or countermeasure until then.

Now hold a giant cannon gate aside and shoot it off into the kingdom as if it were [the Demon Cannon King].

It was Ray Sterling who noticed it first.

"Counter Absorption"

A wall of light appears with the words of Nemesis, absorbing the power of a major firecracker that was supposed to cause tragic damage.

At the same time, Ray, the < master > of Nemesis,

"Vengeance is..."

Fill the clearance to re-fire while disabling the artillery fire with distance from Igoronak,

- It's on me.

In a blow that doubled its shelling, he inflicted a third destruction on Igoronak.

But that doesn't distract me.

Already overlapped sight three times.

I understand, for example, what happens after that.

"Ray! Back off!

With Barbaroy's cry, Ray kicks the ground and takes a distance from Igoronak's wreckage pouring down on the labyrinth floor.

Immediately thereafter the fragments disappear, and Igoronak, the Five Satisfied, emerges.

"How many times is this guy going to come back to life!?

Immortality more than undead.

As the name "Unretreating” suggests, a monster who continues to fight, whether crushed or sealed.

As such, Nemesis felt a threat and slight fear.

That's true of many of the kingdoms. I'm frustrated by fear and impatience about how I can defeat something like this.

Barbaroy and Patriot began to think about things on the assumption of withdrawal from the scene at a time when the seal would not pass.

Or look for the body that you think is somewhere in this Tomb Labyrinth.

…………

After a third resurrection, Igoronak said the weapon had a submachine gun and a long spear instead of a cannon.

In preparation for the ensuing series of attacks, the surviving masters consolidate their defensive posture.

Ray also saw Igoronak in a lupe with "Appraisal Eye" while being hidden behind Barbaroy again.

Again, as was the case earlier, the information was not displayed because it was.

Then... what was that switch of information?

…………

Igoronak doesn't move.

It was headless, but stopped to see what was going on around it.

"Understood"

……

That's how...... I threw up a different word than before.

With words, changes also occur in motion. Igoronak, who should have no head, but it's a move that makes those around feel like they're looking at one person.

The person who was the object of attention was… the one who made a third destruction to Igoronak.

"Ray Sterling"

Igoronak named him,

- You're the kingdom's life, aren't you?

- I poked my own answer.
