Although it was a tremendous light, what happened seemed to be a transfer that was no different than before, and the two of them were thrown into the darkness where they didn't know where.

"Great, the atmosphere was different than usual..."

Hmmm, isn't that normal for the old town to change?

"It's bad for my eyes!"

"... it's dark here and I can't see anything, but it looks like there's no water."

Oh, really!

Even if I move my limbs, I don't feel like I'm in the water.When I jumped up to try it, I felt like I was falling as if I were on the ground.

Well then, let's take off your submersible suit.

"My vision is also somewhat restricted."I wonder if that's a good idea.

When they take off their wetsuits, they check the darkness again with their headlights.

"It's a good floor." It's made of the same stone as before

"I wonder if it's in there somewhere?I can't even see the sky. "

Although there is air, I can't see a single star when I look up.If the floor is artificial, it is more likely to be in a building than in a cave.

"Why don't you walk until you hit the wall?Then we might know how big it is! "

“That's a good suggestion. Let's do that.It's quiet for now, and it's important to know who you are before something comes up. ”

The two of them stepped back.In view of the fact that it often shifts to face the boss, this is the opposite plan.

Then, the back side of the original position was immediately on the wall.There are no doors on the sturdy walls made of black stone, and they are not allowed to come out.

"It looks like it was transferred to the edge of the room."Then the other way around..... "

What can I do for you?

"Yeah, this feels a little bossy."

"That's right!" I have to be careful..... "

It didn't attack immediately, but there's plenty of room for something in the back.This place, which seems to be quite spacious, closely resembles the shape of the boss' room, which has been broken into many times before.

If we can do anything, we need you to wait until we're ready.

The two of them now walk to the side to see the width of this space.As the footsteps sounded in the silent darkness, and nothing in particular happened inside, the two of them reached the wall.

It's very spacious.

"Um, wide..."

"The boss could be pretty big."

Basically, the size of the room depends on the size of the boss.If the size of the room does not match, it will inhibit the movement, so it can be said that it is natural.

Furthermore, since it is not under water this time, it is difficult to predict the boss pattern and there is no prior information.

Looking at it, it will be a live battle that predicts the ability from the impression.

I've been exploring the other way around!

"I'll be ready whenever you want."

Yeah!

The two of them walked to the opposite side of the wall, and after checking that there was nothing on your side, they returned to the center and turned to the front.

Shall we go?

"Oops!" You're all set! "

The two of them moved forward with maximum vigilance.Then, the room gradually brightened up as if it had reacted to the two of them, and the whole picture was revealed.

As expected, they were walking at the edge of the room, a few tens of meters deep toward the front.

Around halfway there are a lot of crystals, rocks, plants that are no longer seen in the eight layers, and other materials near the walls.

Warehouse?

”That's quite a mess... but I wonder if that's the first one standing?”

That's it!

Maple pointed to a black cube about two meters away.

It is floating in the air by unknown forces, and the atmosphere is different from other materials that are rolling miscellaneously.

"Could it be similar to what I saw in the water a while ago?"

"If you're that kind of monster, there's only a limited way to attack it."It might be really similar to what's coming. "

The type that was in the water was an attack using water, but there was no water here this time.Now, as to how they were going to attack us, one more step closer, and the black cube reacted.A complex blue line enters the surface, and the body cracks in half, as it did when it entered here.

It's coming!

Yeah!

Many stone pillars of the same material appear in front of the two standing enchanted cubes.

As it began to spin slowly together, it made a bee sound and stored up energy, releasing it all at once as a large amount of light bullets.

Is that Gatling!?

[Cover]!

Maple stands in front of Sulley, hides her shield behind her, and picks up the light bullet with her body.It didn't do any damage, but it was invisible with a bouncing effect.The rate of fire that exceeds Maple's weaponry is like a beehive in an instant if you can't avoid it.

"It's a little different than I thought, Sally!"

"I thought it was more mysterious...!"

It is also unclear whether the projectile will run out of ammunition because the source of the projectile is different from a regular gun.

"... let me observe a little bit more!"

Alright! It's not damaged, it's okay!

After a few minutes of staring at the light bullet in the cube with serious eyes, Sally nods tinyly that it's no longer a problem.

"Don't worry, you can avoid it. I'll pull you in, so you can shoot me back in the air."

"Give me a break!"

If you say you can avoid it, Maple won't suspect it.Maple knows better than anyone how to dodge it.

"[Quick Change]... then I'll go!"

Good luck!

Sally jumped out from behind the maple and approached the cube.Neither of them had attacked yet, and the attack was aimed at Sulley, who was closer to him.

The light bullet is about to catch Sulley, but it barely reaches that velocity and shoots through the area a moment ago.I just jumped out after declaring that it could be avoided, and it does not depend on the calculation of the difference with my own travel speed.

Water Path!

Floating in the air, it's harder to hit with a kinetic attack than underwater.So Sally swam up and down the current at a high speed, saying she was finally ready to use it.

If you don't have water, you just have to produce it.

[Pinpoint Attack]!

When the dagger is pierced in a staggered manner, the blue line on the surface of the cube blinks and a shield unfolds on the surface.

Piercing!

Sally stabs her dagger into the shield while her skill is still active.It reacts to the shield for an instant and reaches the cube without any problems of making a banging noise, cutting its HP.

It's been prevented... isn't it...?

I can't say anything uncomfortable, but I can't stop to check.

Continuing to move is an absolute prerequisite for evading Gatling.If we don't maintain our maximum speed, we won't be able to avoid it as calculated.

Attack!

Maple fires instead of Sally, who takes a blow and leaves in the water.The Cube's Gatling fires at inferior speeds, but the range of attack is higher.A barely moving cube can't escape this range, and a large amount of bullets strike from the front just in return.

It touches a thin wall, just like when Sally attacked, making a bee sound, and then damaging the surface of the cube.

It's working!

"Good damage, but..."

Maple fired a lot of bullets, and Sally noticed the change in the cube.There's a bar beneath the Health Bar that I've never seen before, and it's slowly increasing in response to attacks.

"Maple! Do you see that gauge?"

"Um... yeah! I see it!"

"It accumulates every time I take damage!"Be careful! "

Got it!

We can only be more vigilant than we know what it represents as a gauge.It was unclear whether accumulation would be advantageous or disadvantageous, but due to the nature of the boss fight, which aims to lose HP, it was impossible to stand around without accumulating.

Then we have no choice but to accept the opponent's coming from the front and win.Fortunately, their abilities are suitable for such situations.

As it looked, the hard cube was damaged by a Maple bullet, but it wasn't about to fall.Even if it looks similar to the individual I met in the water, the boss and the middle boss have different stats.

It's time to accumulate about half of it?

Watching the movement of the cube as it prepares for the next move, Sally, avoiding Gatling and repeating the hit-and-go, was constantly checking the mysterious gauge, which is currently the most disturbing point.

That's why Sally played so many effects that she noticed the gauge shrinking just as she was being attacked.

Maple!

"...! [Cover Move] [Cover]!"

Short words communicated, and two gatling flashes of light and a blast hit the maple that rushed to Sulley from left and right.

Dedicated Mercy !

In response to an earlier attack, Maple hugs Sulley as he puts more defenses in his armor, exploding the weapon and forcing him to distance himself.

"Oh...! That's good, Nice decision!"

Ehehe, what happened?

When the two of them confirmed the direction of the cube, the smaller cube curled around the two bodies.While the center of the boss was lined up with a number of stone pillars, this one was floating like a ball with thorns.

"Is it a bomb?"

The range of the blast is also wide, making it a little riskier for Sulley to keep avoiding.

Well then, I'll protect you!

"Thanks. Then I'll protect Maple's weaponry."

My [Mercy] didn't even protect Maple's weapon.That's why it's now common for both of us to use Maple as a defense and Sully as a shield.

"Besides, there's still more to come." Probably. It consumes and generates a bar that you earn when struck. "

It's true!

Looking at the reduced gauge, Maple also grasped the current situation.I don't know how many more weapons will be added before the Boss runs out of HP.

In addition to the boss's high defense, that shield attenuates damage and converts it into a bar.These elements make the Boss more durable than he ever imagined.

It's going to be a long fight.

It's not underwater, so it's okay!

I see. If you're in the water, it's going to break down, right?

We don't have to worry about it if it's in our favor.Anyway, Sully, Maple is easier to fight on the ground.

I'll be out a little while ago, so don't worry!

It doesn't look like the piercing attack is going on right now, either.

The battle is still here.When they got back into the battle, they walked towards the boss again to close the distance once again.

The [Dedicated Mercy] solidified the defense. The [Remaining Light of Salvation] was also activated, and the emergency evacuation was ready. The [Remaining Light of Salvation] was also activated. The [Remaining Light of Relief] was also activated. The [Remaining Light of Relief] was also activated, and the [Remaining Light of Relief] was also activated. The [Remaining Light of Relief] was also activated and the [Remaining Light of Relief] was ready for emergency evacuation. The [Remaining Light of Relief] was also activated. The [Remaining Light of Relief] was also activated, and the [Remaining Light of Relief] was activated. The [Remaining Light of Relief] was also activated. The [Remaining Light of Relief] was also activated.

I've seen the maple gauge, and I'm sure you can see the increase in weapons.

Rikaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Maple spawns a number of massive laser cannons when she comes in range, and lowers her center of gravity to the center of the cube.Of course, if you stop and do something like that, Gatling and the bombs will attack Maple, but in the meantime, Sally will be blocked.

Iron Flood !

Sulley bounces off the ground with a burst of water, transforming his weapon into a large shield to block Gatling's attack.

Attack!

The Maple's laser cannon emits a red light that strikes the Cube directly.The opponent had no defensive shield and no escort.

As the Maple Laser strikes, the bar beneath the Cube grows and is consumed to a certain value to create a new weapon.

It's a long cylinder!

It's a cannon or something... I don't know because it looks alike.

Now, as we continue to attack, a thin light stretches from the long cylinder to the maple's forehead.It's just like a pointer.

"That's a sniper...!"

Before Sally could say anything, a roar rang, and a bullet landed on Maple's head at an unavoidable speed, blowing it all the way over.In consideration of the fact that the skill effects of [Love for Self-Dedication] and [Remaining Light of Salvation] had not expired, and that no damage effects had occurred at the moment of blowing, it was a one-shot attack and [Guardian of Tenacity] remained, I focused my voice on the front.

If you're gonna be okay, resume shooting!

Even Sulley was not an evasive attack.On top of that, the ability to prevent it will determine whether Sulley can move freely in cutting the remaining Boss's HP.There was still a [Cicada] left, so now was your chance to try it out.

"Alright....."

Sally sees that the cylinder above the cube is storing energy and takes a backstep.For a moment, Gatling changed his angle to follow Sally and was delayed.It was a slight attack that Sally couldn't catch up with even if she stopped.

As a cube, you have to fill it in, as a sally, you have to lure it in there.The roar cuts through the space, fires a bullet, and approaches Sally.However, I knew where it would come from by the pointer that was irradiated beforehand.

Haa!

It feels like time is flowing slowly and stopping.In it, Sally's eyes held the bullet tightly.Half of it was a reaction, and half of it was a prediction. The dagger slammed the bullet from the side and scattered sparks, diverting its trajectory away from the forehead.

With a knockback from being knocked back by a weapon, Sally's body flashed backwards, but when she regulated her posture in the air, she landed firmly on the ground.

The incredible speed of the bullet slid through the top left of Sally and crashed into the wall, making a loud noise.

"Success...!"

At the end of an instant of attack and defense, and as the compressed time returns, Gatling attacks and Sally runs out again.

"I can play... but I want to leave the Rock to Maple."

It will take a great deal of concentration to do the same thing again and again.When Sulley saw Gatling's clearance, he saw Firak and Maple, and as expected, they were safe, and although the weapons were no longer torn apart, their HP was not reduced at all.

"Greetings, Sally! Was it okay!?"

Yeah. You're the one that didn't hit me directly. It's a boulder.

I'll take care of it this time!

If there are any signs, Maple can catch them if she's prepared.Even if you swallowed [bad food] and didn't swallow it all, you can stop it with [heavy body].It was far from the worst because it didn't take any damage in the first place.

"Go ahead and shoot me. That's the safest way to scrape it."

"Ouch! [All Armored Deployment]!"[Exuding Chaos]! "

Cyclone Cutter Fireball !

The Health of the Boss is being cut without the means to hurt the two who attack unilaterally from among the multiple safety nets.A monster that didn't have any countermeasures had no choice but to fight two opponents.

The matching opponent is ravaged.That is the characteristic of the two skewed abilities.

"...... there were two more of them all at once!"

Only those two are vigilant!

One soars directly above the two of them, and the other stops around the torso.Being vigilant about what to do, a thick laser was emitted from the newly added device, reaching from the edge of the room to the edge.

"Whoa!?"

"Wow, it's moving!" Dive or fly to avoid it! "

"I-I don't care if you say that!"

I had to dexterously jump over the lasers that were moving across the room, but Sulley was possible, but Maple was difficult.

None of Maple's flying abilities are good at making fine moves.

Well then......

"... I see!"

With the laser approaching, Sally makes a proposal for Maple, while taking Gatling under her shield.

It was about the first move to decide on a long fight.

The proposed Maple explodes its weapon as the laser approaches and soars into the sky in a blast.Even so, it was not directly above, but diagonally forward.

Rifles with knockback effects are charging, and we were able to destroy the remaining weapons in Gatling, but there is no way to reject the Maple's approach.

[Invitation to the bottom of the water]!

On the verge of landing, Maple changes one arm to a tentacle, and the tentacle widens to envelop the cube.Even with the shield, it still blows out of the gap between the tentacles to create a massive amount of damage effects, like when grasping a fresh fruit.

"It's working! More... [cannon body unfolding]!"

The opposite of grabbing the cube, I turned my hand into a giant cannon barrel and released the laser at zero distance.Mixed with the red light, the damage effect rises up and the boss's HP decreases tremendously, but at the same time, the bar increases with a tremendous amount of force, and the shock generated bounces off the stuck maple.

"Whoa!?! I was almost there!" Whoa!? "

The maple dropped on the ground, chased by Gatling and the rifle, rolled towards Sally, wrapped in a moving laser that burned near the ground.

"... you're safe and sound, right?"

Yeah!

"Cheerful reply, thank you."

Maple said it was just a little later, and if we could hit it a few more times, we would be able to defeat it, but before the two of us could take action, we would consume a lot of accumulated gauges and emit a light that was not comparable to that of before.

When it stopped. The gatling cylinder in the center of the cube had disappeared and had been turned into a thick cylinder that was nearly ten times thicker.Even if you see something you don't know, it seems like a stone pillar. They understand that it is a powerful cannon.

It starts charging at the same time it is generated, and Light Shields are deployed multiple times to protect it from the Boss.

"What are you going to do, Sally!?"

"If I can, I want to kill them all before I let them shoot me!" but..... "

The power and range were unknown, but it was definitely the last trump card.

If you can finish without being shot, you won't beat it, but the hardness of the defensive boss is unknown.

There is a risk of being backstabbed, whether it's fighting back like it's always been, or filling up at once.

Well then, Sally, how about this?

Maple proposed the opposite.Sally nodded affirming the idea when she heard it.

"Fine. Then I'll wait for you to shoot me."Believe in Maple's skills and defenses "

Yeah! It's okay!

If there's a Maple, it's better to be hardened than to be pushed into an offensive and run the risk of not being able to defend herself.

All incoming attacks are disabled at no risk by Maple's Defense and [Dedicated Mercy], so you can stand by until the moment of shooting.

I think it's time to shoot!

Sally, who was observing the situation, saw the light converging on the weapon grow stronger and felt the firing.

"Just in case... [Pierce Guard] [Unbreakable Shield]!"

Maple activates her abilities in case she lands a direct hit, removing her tentacles and raising her shield.Then, a few moments later, a high sound was heard indicating that the room was ready to fire, and the white light that emitted most of the room was covered with the roar.

It was for a moment, and there was no two on the ground where everything had been burned down, only overflowing water.But that doesn't mean that they were knocked down, or that this room was broken and overflowing with water.

“The timing is perfect!”

Ehehe, that worked!

They were right above the boss.I slipped through the attack without taking any damage by aligning the moment of transfer with the [Ark] with the laser.

Just in case Maple said it was insurance when it failed.

In exchange for the big moves, the Gatling that was always after us is gone, and the other weapons can't be attacked immediately.Right in front of us is a great opportunity to attack.

Maple, let's go!

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Cannonball Deployment !

Each arm turned into a giant laser cannon, whose muzzle firmly grasped the cube beneath it.If the opponent cuts the trump card, we would match it and Sally would use False Flip to materialize the attack.

Attack!

The two lasers were mixed together, destroying the boss' shield with a force no less powerful than that released earlier, and burning their bodies to stop their movement completely.
