The Man Picked Up By the Gods (Reboot)

He rushes over to Elder Trent as he cuts off the roots that attack him.

Elder Trent has a shallow black surface and more than 10 m around the trunk. It's a big tree with a size and style that looks like it's about 20 meters high. The trunk has many areas and cracks that are thriving, and I find it more disastrous than magnificent.

Furthermore, the face attached to the trunk was an oval shape the size of which was twice the height of an adult and attached near the root of a tree. The creepiness is even more pronounced by its texture and size.

"Lyoma and Rapin cover without going in between branches! Syria needs the support of two!

We stay on the spot for words and answer with a word of understanding and action.

Throw an iron slime axe while paving the ground with a payment, then sweep away Trent crawling with it. Magically covered by Mr. Rapin. Mr. Syria mows the roots that turn to Mr. Rapin and me.

... The body of Elder Trent has been attacked by the Rabbits, but it is more than expected. In addition to the size of your body, the wood-magic 'glow' looks troublesome.

Although that is not inherently healing magic, Elder Trent is a plant based warcraft, so it feels like he is getting the same effect as healing by growing his own body. This is the dominant position at the moment, but it is not a cautious situation.

"Ooh, ooh!"

Groaning or screaming, indistinguishable sound.

I glanced sideways with Chirali and Mr. Miseria was tapping an axe into Elder Trent's face. Seems to have been tapped in several times already, but the blow now seems to have devoured deeper than ever. Mr. WellAnna and Mr. Meyer are on their way to pursuit.

However,

"Chip!"

"Uh-huh!?

An unexpected counterattack from Elder Trent. A black sphere appearing at the mouth is ejected into Mr. WellAnna. She was flabbergasted by the void but had to stop the attack because of the pursuit of the branches.

It's Dark Magic Dark Ball!

Mr. WellAnna stopped, but I still thought Mr. Meyer... and now the black misty thing was thrown out. Look at that. Mr. Meyer takes his distance, too.

"Nyah!?

Her voice like a surprise. If you turn your eyes, the axe will rust as you look at it.

"What is that now!

"The earlier one was a dark ball! This individual can also use dark magic! The reaction will probably also be the effect of dark magic!

... Dude, I didn't hear that information.

"Lots of unexpected things! Once we pull this off, we'll work out measures!

Thus, we did not force ourselves to withdraw once.

Discuss while taking a break away from Elder Trent's offensive range.

"Meeya, what about your arm?

"I don't know about your arms, but I can't do this anymore."

The axe Miya put out so that everyone could see it rusted the entire metal area, and the blade tip is already broken.

"If you touch that black mist, this is the street."

"This is terrible"

"You can't fight with so many weapons."

"Rapin, are there any precautions?

"Neither have we heard of Elder Trent, who can use magic other than wood magic. Besides, the dark magic that rusts the weapon doesn't even sound familiar. By inputting light magic as a countermeasure and treatment to attacks by dark magic, we have the hand to wield the magic of dark attributes with the magic of light attributes... but we cannot do it all the time during battle."

That dark magic effect is to rust weapons, no, metal?... No way, was that the reason the metal slime was scared? But then why... if you say so... it's only hypothetical, but let's talk.

After telling you all about my hypothesis, we decided to fight Elder Trent again.

Elder Trent has a lot of unforeseen things going on this time, but the strength itself is not so much a threat, and if there are measures to be taken because he is the one who can withdraw if it becomes dangerous, there is no problem.

"Let's go!

"'Payments'"

Pave the ground again to prevent root attacks and storm. And as we approached Elder Trent, Elder Trent alerted us or started throwing up black fog again.

"Coming!

"I'll try!

One iron slime throwing axe. Throw it all over Elder Trent's face.

The axe thrown drew a parabola and thrust through the black fog.

"Ooh, ooh!"

The iron slime axe beautifully reaches between Elder Trent's brows.

And the effect of the contract told me that there was no problem with the iron slime.

"It's okay! It still doesn't seem to work that magic on Iron Slime!

"All right, fold it up!

Mr. Asagi goes with the words to Elder Trent's face. Plus Miya, Miseria and WellAnna continue, and at the end of the day they slash me while I release a fire arrow.

The countermeasure I suggested to you was to "fight with weapons and protective equipment that deformed the iron slime."

Mr. Rapin showed me his understanding when I was reminded that metal slime was frightened before I fought Elder Trent, stating the presumption that metal slime, whose body was metal, instinctively feared Elder Trent.

I taught him one previous life's knowledge in addition to the anticipation that Iron Slime, who had no fear even of the same metal there, he decided to hear it from his grandfather.

The more pure a substance called iron, the less likely it is to rust. And Iron Slime has an ultra-high purity iron body that evolved by eating only the iron I extracted from alchemy.

Also, Elder Trent fog doesn't rust all metals the same way, which is one of the reasons why I decided to try it.

Magic is magic and imagery that usually makes impossible things happen, but it doesn't mean you can do anything with magic and imagery. It needs to be somewhat in line with natural dishes.

Magic that can distort and activate the natural dishes with magic and image, but the greater the distortion, the more magic you tend to consume, and the more limits. So even with magical effects, I predicted that rust-resistant metals would be less likely to rust.

It's just rust resistant so far, and I was wondering if iron slime would be dangerous in a long fight, but you guys worked it out ahead.

First see how it goes with one throw, and if it fails, hurry to retrieve it and retreat. You can treat Mr. Rapin the way he told you. Slime is of paramount importance to nucleus. There is no major problem with rust on the surface. Stopping the rust erosion before it reaches the nucleus would help.

Continue fighting if you don't have a problem. Based on the information gained in previous battles, we will work out measures and aim for a short-term showdown. When the battle is over, treat with light magic just in case. If you can't hold back, you can withdraw again.

You told me you'd help us retrieve and retreat, so we're challenging Elder Trent to rematch.

"Ho!

I joined the avant-garde this time, so I'm attacked by a more intense attack.

The first blow is a branch attack from directly above. The second shot is a dark ball. The third shot blocked the road with roots.

He's finally trying to tangle it up to me, so he rips it through.

Elder Trent's face on the front. Let's keep approaching and shower him with a machete.

"Ooooooo!!

I thought so, but Elder Trent won't let me slash him that easily either. At the same time as preparing the dark ball, the branches have swung down.

Twist your body and circle from right to left to align with the branches. With that one machete, the branches are cut off, and the tip falls to the ground from the incision.

Suddenly approaching while playing the dark ball that continues to fly in. Under Elder Trent's face. Flash your neck from left to right if you say so in humans. The distracted blade is swept through without any resistance being felt, and a large amount of magic is blown out of the large wounds left behind.

"Wow!"

Did you think this was a bad idea for Elder Trent, too? Attacks diminished and tree magic began to heal the wounds.

But no one here misses it.

"'Flame Lance'!

Mr. Rapin's backup shooting is slapped into the wound.

Intermediate magic of fire attributes, "Flame Lance".

Seems like it would have worked great if the boulder had caught a strong fire in your body. Elder Trent's recovery rate drops exceptionally.

Without missing a gap, the simultaneous attack of Meeya and the others begins, thoroughly attacking the face and the surrounding area with their own gains.

On the other hand, I'm not going in there. Prepare for pursuit.

Have Big Iron Slime reshape and separate 15 more Iron Slime.

Quickly the Big Iron Slime changes to an iron ball the size of which can be held with both hands. Around it was a sharp lizard and a semi-circular handle with holes in the center. Each of the separated iron slimes creates a ring, which forms a chain to connect my right arm to the iron ball handle.

Duration, approx. 5 seconds. The weapon changed from a knife to a chained iron sphere.

"You can always go!

This iron sphere specializes in the power of a single blow, a weapon against large warcraft. Pull the chain connected to your arm and a jarring noise will sound. The iron sphere is heavy only if it is necessary to be able to use the appropriate muscle strength or enhanced magic. But if I strengthened it with qigong, I could swing it. As we gain momentum in that way, the wind cuts as the chains and iron spheres make noise.

I'm not used to it either... if it's enough to hit an immobile enemy!

"All right, spread out!!

Everyone who was attacking intensively on Mr. Asagi's signal opens the place immediately.

Aim at the center of Elder Trent's face!

"Ha!"

――

Iron ball on the nose.

A loud crack runs on Elder Trent's face making a noise, and the magic blows out.

Previous attacks have made it easier to crack scratches everywhere on your face... an iron ball slammed into a scratchy spot, I guess you couldn't stand the impact.

I planned to tap in 4,5 times, but when this happens, I can't fight anymore, and the movement of the roots and branches around me stops. but... I still have a slight breath.

"Lyoma, you must stab the stop"

"The number one credit this time is Lyoma, because you and Slime."

"At the end of the day, I made up my mind."

Copy that.

Swing the chain again to gain momentum and now slap a full blow in the forehead.

Doggo, following a loud and dull noise, the sound of Elder Trent's face collapsing echoed around.

The momentum of the magic power that blows up, once stronger, gradually weakens. Eventually I stopped feeling completely magical.

"Now you're finished, aren't you?

"It's okay."

I treated Iron Slime with light magic after confirming that I had no problems with each of them. Well, just in case it didn't seem to be a problem at all. I'm glad nothing happened.

Shooting a light ball at the iron slime I gathered while I thought so,

"It's a paragraph."

At the end of Mr. Asagi's gaze, which he said so, is the wreckage of Trent, who was defeated and abandoned today.

Sure how long it takes us alone to collect...... I can't get into Mr. Rapin's Dimension Home before then.

"Don't worry. Once Slime has been treated, return to the city and report to the Alliance. Then we'll have them manned and transported to recover the wood. Once you return to Giml, you can apply to the Alliance as a required expense."

So we went back to the city and gave the Alliance a report and a request.

Timber recovery will be after tomorrow. For one thing, let's get some rest tonight...
