(Damn, I'm not kidding...!

I was just poisoned in my heart as I pushed and killed my desperate and impatient feelings.

Theory is never close when it comes to eliminating sticky bacteria and dealing with them from outside the area.

No, they exist in a very small part of the brave men who dare to storm themselves ready to smash balls, but I couldn't do it very well, and I didn't want to.

Yet when I realized it, I was surrounded, what a circumstance with the worst.

Besides, I never dreamed I'd run into them in a place like this, so I'm not even ready to fight them yet.

The trauma of the past and the worst future depends on me.

(Easy, easy)

I'll put my hands on my hips, telling myself to calm down.

Unfortunately, you won't have time to choose items from adventurer bags for a long time to come.

I stuck my hand in the porch.

(Glad I got this one for the Aqua Element Battle)

Grab some poison out of the porch and throw it around where the apple threw the milk.

(I don't know if this will poison those guys, but at least for a little stopping while they're swarming on this guy...)

I thought about that, and I watched them go, trying to take action if they swarmed the poison.

However,

(... Want to come?

It's like a different reaction than just now.

Those nasty sticky fungi don't try to get their hands on poison, despite the intensified yellow signs from all around them.

I suspected for a moment that the contents were being spotted as poisonous, but they shouldn't have that intelligence.

I realized that my preference for predators…

(Right, priority!

Looking around, there are still things in this field that are likely to eat mucus fungus, such as trees and plants.

Yet daring to come at us with fire would mean that we look tastier than those things.

I don't even think there's an organ in the viscous fungus that perceives the outside, but there, well, it's a story in the game world.

They followed a set pattern and approached the prey as if they were even visible, preying on it.

The only thing those guys could prey on in their original game was humans and monsters, plus weapons and other items and foods.

I think the game has become a reality and I can eat objects such as trees and maybe items without HP, but still maybe the behavioral patterns of the game age are still alive.

It is believed that they are targeting objects that were also predatable in games such as humans and milk over objects that could not have been eaten in the past, such as trees and poisons.

(If so, does it not work to put the poison away?

If so, already...)

When I was cruising the last poison,

"Lend it to me."

"Oh, hey...!

When the rushed Mitsuki quickly took the medicine from my hand, he threw it into the darkness.

Should I say that boulders are mites?

I can only see blur within the reach of the light of the fire, but the bottle of Mitsuki poison didn't take its aim off and seemed to strike the yellow shadow that was glowing there directly.

But...

"... nothing seems to happen"

"Neither a state attack nor a state item will work on those guys!

The appearance of viscous fungus is no different.

Those guys change color depending on their condition, so if they get poisoned, they should be green, if they die, they should be gray, but nothing changed this time.

Totally tired, no, I could even say that for losing the poison, it was painful.

"... soma"

If you realize it, it's time for the yellow shadow to erode into the range of light.

Is there an influx of mucus from other areas?

Or are you still eating and growing monsters somewhere?

Anyway, I felt their numbers were increasing while this was happening.

"What do you do?

Neither does the boulder mite seem to intend to cut into this swarm of mucous bacteria.

The cat ear above his head is also shivering as he sifts all "this sucky, frightening".

Look at that, I'll sort out the status quo once again.

As a guess, this major outbreak of mucinous bacteria should be recent.

Before I caved in, I normally ran into other monsters, and if it was a game, anyway, if in today's world there was enough mucus bacteria to fill one field in the boulder, that information should reach the city and the dojo.

It also indicates that there are still plants in this area, which means that the sticky bacteria have entered this field and there is still no time between them.

I don't have much information about eating trees to be sure of, but if they had eaten and grown the 'sticky fungus forest' trees from the beginning, the number of days until they got here would be too late.

It's possible they didn't even realize they could eat trees in the beginning, and the sticky bacteria don't move much while the numbers are low, so maybe it wasn't that long ago that they started eating forest trees.

Either way, if we'd been here a day early or late, we wouldn't have suddenly been thrown into a situation like this.

I don't know if it's a good time or a bad time, but then I have a hitter.

"Anyway, now we need time to work out what to do!

Get back to the cave!

If you've just broken into this field, the field ahead of you shouldn't have been eroded yet.

At least speaking of 'running water caves', I never saw any viscous fungus on my way home.

First off, no doubt, you'll still be safe there.

So get away with it for one second and rebuild your attitude.

That was my conclusion.

If you decide to get that far, all you have to do is run away.

I give instructions quickly.

"Mitsuki, pine light, please.

Now I need you to hold them close and protect us all. "

"Okay."

Mitsuki receives a shishaw from me.

When Mitsuki turned to Shishaw on the yellow chunk he tried to get this way quickly, they lowered a little reluctantly for fire.

"Ringo, attack the guys who follow you behind with a thunderstorm.

You don't have to take them all down, so stop me. "

"... n"

With the reply, thunder runs in the darkness of the night.

The aim was inaccurate, but the opponent is surprisingly spread across the ground.

Almost all lightning strikes hit the yellow slime, letting it despair, creating gray stills in the yellow sea.

(But more than you can imagine)

The lightning struck me and my vision widened a little, but there are more sticky bacteria following us than I thought.

I guess that means the monsters on this occasion have almost hunted it all down.

Until the next pop arrives, the enemy's goal is expected to focus on us.

"I'll keep this porch in Kuma.

There's a sphere of attributes inside, so throw it... "

Before I finish, you cleverly climbed my back and I take the blue sphere out of my porch and throw it at a bunch of sticky fungus.

The blue explosion spread and the sticky fungus that was in that area died and greyed out.

A sticky fungus that has no attribute resistance and only 1 HP can easily be defeated by a blow of such a junior item.

But this is where their horrors come from.

In front of me, yellow mucus flocks to the greyed mucus carcass.

And instantly it grows, retrieving its original number.

No, actually, the number should be lower than before, but because there are individuals who have been caught by their fellow corpses, the number doesn't seem to be decreasing.

I just tremble in fear at that sight, but what I need to do now is not tremble.

While we were stopping, mucus fungus had also been gathering on the 'running water cave' side.

We need to get these guys out of here in order for us to escape over there.

I turned to the yellow wall that stood in front of us and cast a spell.

"" Petite Pro - John "!!

Fortunately, it was lowering its magical power.

The magic of that explosion, which was reduced to its extreme power, did not damage the viscous fungi, but was effective enough to flicker and blow the viscous fungi on the path.

"Let's go!

We move on so that we can jump into the slightest gap that we've made.

Fortunately, the siege is still relatively thin on the 'running water cave' side.

Though my liver feels cold at the siege that gradually narrows, I take the path I have just walked with a glimmer of hope.

(But this isn't good, is it...?

But the pursuit of the viscous fungi was harsher than I imagined.

It was us who were aiming at the slightest thin spot of the viscous fungus siege and moving on to the zigzag, but the amount of yellow that goes into view increases with every hour we follow.

Meanwhile, we don't have the ability to fight indefinitely.

"Kuma...?

First, the ball of Kuma's throwing attribute ran out.

There are not many types or quantities of items that can be placed in the pouch.

I can't afford to fish my bag now, and I can't help this.

But the stopping attack is only a thunderbolt of apples, and the visibly intense momentum of the mucous fungi coming after them.

"Damn!

I use 'Petite Pro John' because I can't do it any more than before.

We're lowering the performance of Range to its limits, so we can't use it well unless it's enough to storm the enemy.

Anyway, if you run into a cave, you can handle it.

Yes, I tell myself, I approach my enemies and use magic while twisting my fears.

But when I finally saw the entrance to "The Cave of Running Water," the impossibility snuck.

I tried to use magic while sticking it in the sticky fungus.

(... no magic?!

The effect of the explosion, which is supposed to occur, will not be produced for long.

Too much magic.

I ran out of MP.

The yellow waves push against me when I stand in front of my enemies!

"- Soma!!

It was the thunderbolt that cut through the darkness that saved me.

A thunderbolt strikes directly at the yellow wave in front of you, pressing the motion only for a moment.

In that gap, I was pulled by Mitsuki and barely escaped.

"Thanks, both of you"

I say thank you with a blue face.

"... because I won't let soma at all"

"Until I did what I deserved."

Reliable two replies.

But the price was huge.

The temporarily interrupted attack on the back of the apple completely caught up with the mucus that came after us.

Besides, I was trying not to kill as much mucus as I could with a low-power attack, because the mucus bacteria have the nature of crowding the corpses of their own kind with the highest priority.

By killing the mucous bacteria in the front, they circled in completely before.

"You're surrounded."

Mitsuki's heavy voice pokes her chest.

…………

Apple didn't say anything, but he seemed to know the situation was hopeless.

- Nita.

Kuma is laughing at her temperament even at times like this.

... No, temperament, I don't know if it is, but I'm laughing anyway.

I gave back a powerless laugh, too.

Clearly, the situation sucks.

Now barely Mitsuki's Matsumitsu is holding the sticky fungi back, but it's not strange to be attacked at the next moment.

It's time to make your last decision.

I closed my eyes while I was stuck.

(… can't help it,)

It's impossible to get through this place unharmed.

I set up a golden cherry blossom on my left.

Towards the viscous fungi surrounding all sides, not my unchanged companions.

As it were, it's all gone.

So one of us, no, needed to be sacrificed, either apple or mitzki.

"... bad"

That's what I say, shake a golden cherry blossom.

I don't have time to talk about it in detail.

Whatever accusations I received, I was going to scratch my feet to survive.

But neither of them will show a bare gesture of escape when they see me swinging weapons.

There's no resistance, just trying to accept what I do.

(Really, sorry!

Apologize in your heart, the moment I tried to take the last resort,

"Wow!!

Suddenly, there was a terrible roar from across.

Reflectively looking at the voice,

"Bloody Auga!?

The rare monster in this field, Bloody Auga, looked far away.

Bloody Auga is a black-skinned, august-based rare monster that boasts several ranked abilities and giants over regular individuals.

Did it survive the height of its rare monster's HP?

Or simply, did you just pop it?

For the first time since I got out of this place I saw a monster other than mucus, but its life didn't seem to be long anymore either.

I am desperately shaking it off, but I have about half my lower body stuck to viscous fungus.

As it is, it will be only a matter of time before the sticky fungus eats you to death.

But when I saw it, I made up my mind.

"Soma?!

"What?!

Throw your back bears at the apple and I'll jump into the yellow sea.

Stick one foot into a sea of sticky fungus in "Steps," jump with each sticky fungus that clings to the foot in "High Steps," and pack the last distance to Bloody Auga in "Shrinking Land".

My legs are eaten.

indescribable, creepy feeling.

However, with a degree of damage, skills are uninterrupted.

Reach the foot of an orga rampaging in "shrinkage" and "jump".

Still, I don't shake out a bunch of sticky bacteria.

But I saw Auga's weakness, his head, in range.

Huge monsters such as Bloody Auga and Butcher often have a weak head that is hard to target.

And if you hit a weakness, a critical point, the damage at that time, and the rate of adhesion to a state anomaly is doubled!

"-" Poison Tooth "!!

A dagger skill activated by the Golden Cherry Blossom pierces the head of an orga.

I did, a definite response.

"Come on!"

And after finishing my skills, my body loses power and falls into the yellow sea.

On the way down, I could see Bloody Auga breaking her knee unbearably withstanding the attack of viscous fungus and her body all covered in yellow.

(... Ah)

At the same time as I see it, my body falls to the ground, no, into a sea of sticky fungus.

"Soma! Soma!!

In my rapidly smearing yellow vision, I heard someone's disturbed voice.

As it is, I will be eaten and killed by these sticky fungi in less than a few seconds.

- But I was sure it wouldn't happen.

And in fact.

"... Thor, Ma?

Only a few moments later, the viscous fungi on me walked away from my body.

I found a prey that should take precedence over me.

If you raise your face, there's a viscous fungus figure flocking to Bloody Auga's body.

No, to be more precise, I could see the viscous fungus flocking to the viscous fungus sticking to the orga.

- What I saw in my eyes was a brightly colored sight out of place.

The corpse of the viscous fungi, gray. Yellow flocks to it, turning its body into bright green in an instant.

The green that was born divides, creates a new green, turns gray and stops moving.

A new yellow crowd flocked there, turning green, growing green again and soon grey... repetition of.

Yellow, green, gray, yellow, green, gray......

Its chain of colors, which follows oddly, quickly spreads out, circling around Bloody Auga's body,

"Go!

It instantly expanded to all over the field, as if it had fed my cheer.

And

"Thanks for your help, Bloody Aug"

By the time the bloody orga giant, who was at some point exhausted, disappeared into particles.

There was no such thing as a yellow sea around me anymore.

It was only a matter of a few dozen seconds or so.

But during those dozens of seconds, the yellow slime that was sweeping the field disappeared without one remaining particle, and the field abruptly took away the quiet of the night.

Mental fatigue makes me powerless.

My leg clinging to the viscous fungus hurts twitchy.

Without the energy to get up, I leaned back on my back on the spot.

"Ha, ha!

Still, with a natural grin, I grabbed a cobweb.

"... Great Chain, Success"

For the record, though.

This is what I used this time to deal with the sticky fungus that one player stumbled upon, which gave hope to all the desperate 'cat-eared cat' players.

- It is commonly known as the "total viscosity elimination method".
