"It's a doll! It's like there's no joints, so be careful!"

"Oh, I'm sorry!"

Promerte's right.

Articulations in which metal plates are not bonded shall be dealt with considering bending in all directions of 360 degrees.

I almost shattered my bones.

At first, I wear advanced dark magic black sand, but my hands and feet move fast and have power.If you lose your mind, everything will blow up five times in an instant.

"Speed seems to be faster than mine, but power sucks."

Although it is not as dangerous as a sky fox, I feel the same danger as an S-ranked monster.

Different types, but compared to the dark daemon, which was the undersea tunnel dungeon boss, it probably won't pull.

Simply put, it's strong. That is also unusual strength.

"Avoid Shinya slashing..."

"Grandma Arten's technical skills... you really seem to resent me..."

"But avoiding it means you're feeling the danger of Sinya's attack.It's not like I can't get my hands or my feet out. "

"If you think positively, yes... do you have the intelligence to judge such things in the first place...?"

…………………

Promerte can't answer Donnate's question.

We don't know if the attack will actually pass unless we hit it with a slash.

Donnath, Saddle, and Petro didn't make it.It is possible that Nil and I are the ones, but neither of them has been able to make the blade touch Beta's body.

"We have to do it anyway, Saddle!Donatee! It may be tough, but I'll ask for the front! "

"Leave it to me!"

"I'll try as much as I can!"

Saddle stood in front of Beta and made a small gesture to prevent him from equipping the Great Sword, catching the attack.

Whenever Beta hits, go!Gong! A heavy, dull sound sounds and Saddle distorts his expression.We won't be able to keep the front line for much longer.

"Nil! Can you parry the attack next?!"

Yes!

It's an undisputed reply.

Even though it looks the same size as Petro, its power is at Genjilow level.I was surprised at the power of someone I could not imagine from the looks of it, but if I could even grasp it, Nil could deal with it now.

"Petro, make me a slice!"

Yes, yes, I'll take care of it!

"Turner! I need the magic of the shackles!Promerte, go for the joints as planned! "

Got it!

Got it!

Inside the cave, too bad vision, unstable scaffolding even if flat.The situation is unfavourable wherever you take it.In such a situation, we can do something with this face.

Unlike in the undersea tunnel dungeon, there were no rats or gonzos, but there were S-rank adventurers, Eagle Crow.

Here we go!

Turner's voice and yellow-green light from behind.

Zazzzzz!

Intermediate tree magic and wood binding are activated, each wrapping around Beta's four legs.

However, the magic of the intermediate tree will probably hold you for a few seconds.No, if I could hold him for a few seconds, I'd say, "Long live."

However, if the beta stops moving for less than a few seconds, Promerte's arrows will surely attack the joint.

Pashh!

As if a targeted shot was destined to fly there, it would fly in a beautiful straight line.

Khhh!

The arrow definitely hit the joint, but since it's a beta body that can even catch Donnate's attack, it can't even penetrate, of course, it can't even scratch.

When the arrow hits Beta's body, it bounces back vaguely after a high metal sound... nothing happened.

Gigga!

You can hear metallic, scratchy sounds.

Looking at the arrows that do not fall, the tip of the arrow is well pinched in the joint.

I don't know about the bow because I've barely touched it... but I think you've done a pretty superhuman thing... I wonder.Anyway, you should be thankful.

A single foot cannot be moved and the attack is only twelve minutes old.

Me, Nil, and Petro kick the ground almost simultaneously.

First, Promerte literally fired a precision shot through the needle hole, creating the starting point for a slight attack.Petro slightly penetrates into that small starting point.

"Yaaaa!"

Since the four feet are in contact with the ground so that they are square, there is at least no possibility of foot attack in the area covered by the joint sealed foot.If you can, you can lift or rotate your feet from your hip.Either way, a knee-sealed foot shouldn't let a fierce blow like blowing a saddle across a shield.

Petro, who understands it, kicks the ground and sticks out Dagger's notch around Beta's side.

Gigga!

Beta tries to move her legs, but the tip of the arrow is completely pinched and does not come out.

Beta gave up moving her legs and turned her left arm towards Petro.

"Don't forget me too!"

Gaggin '!

Saddle and Donnate bundle up and attack the upper and lower body simultaneously.

Though it hurts, it seems that the option of not defending is not in Beta, lifting one leg and the right arm.

Both attacks are prevented, but one more leg and the other arm are blocked.

I've had it set up so far, and I can't dress without the results.

Nil!

Yes!

Nil, who responded to my voice, came running towards me.

Nil ran in front of me and ran straight into Beta without losing momentum.

Giggin!!

Nh!!

Petro, Saddle and Donnate are pushed back by their feet and arms and blown back.

It's a course that hits a rough wall, but I don't care now.

"Haaaa!!"

Gaggie!

Slash Nil's stuck leg.

Heavy sparks and sounds are heard and about half of the leg is cut.They couldn't cut it off with a single blow.

Zuggah!

cumming!

Petro, Saddle, and Donnate seem to have hit their back hard against the wall, and they hear a painful voice.Still, don't look back, just look at Beta.

Oops!

I shake my sword toward the cut, but Beta also shakes her right arm with her posture collapsed.People transmit power to the body by muscle, but this beta is different.Probably using magic technology to convey power.

For this reason, even in an impossible posture, as long as there is enough space to swing your arms, you can exert your power regardless of posture or the like.

In other words, there is dangerous power on the arm that is shaken in a collapsed position.

Naturally, if you think such an arm is approaching, it is normal to decide whether to avoid or accept it, but I do not take either action, just look at the front and wave the sword.

Garrigari!!

Nil broke right next to my head and pardoned it with a shield.

A fierce spark of light enters your eyes, but you have no fear.

Earlier, Nil answered the question of whether he would be able to parry Beta's attack next.When Nil answers yes without hesitation, I can definitely do it.Knowing that, I can shake my sword without any concern.

Bagchin!

A strong shock will be delivered to your hands.

My sword had a further impact on Nil's scar, and my unbearable leg was completely severed.

Bum bum bum!!

Slightly below the knee joint, the separated foot flies in rotation and hits the wall, breaking one of the projections that exited the wall and falling together.

Bang!

Beta kicks the ground the moment her feet are cut off and jumps high into one of the holes in the wall.Moreover, it quickly disappeared into the back of the hole.

"... escaped?!"

I didn't think that such a choice existed in a doll called Beta, so everyone stopped on the spot and stopped thinking.

"Let me escape!!!"

Saddle tried to catch up immediately, but distorted his face to the pain and stopped his legs.

"Heal first."

"I can't let you get away with it."

"No, this is a truce."

Said Saddle didn't hurt, but he tried to walk out, but physically stopped it.

"But!"

Petro wasn't the only one who felt anxious about Beta's crusade.It's obvious that you're out of your mind as an Eagle Crow...

"Just calm down for once.

If you keep going, you won't be able to fight.

Nil and I both know the attack will pass, and with time, we'll have a better plan next time.

But if we don't make it through here, we'll be on the loose, no maneuvers, just sticking in.It's no different than suicide. "

"Gu...."

Saddle frowned at my words.It seems to have clogged the words with correct arguments.

"Petro, Donnate, healing first.I'll be here all night today. Is that good? "

"I can't help it."

"Yes, Sinya is right here. I will obey."

After all, Saddle was convinced.

The wounds on the three men were not that serious, but were about the size of a punch and cut.There was no abnormality in the bone, and the shock caused a mild concussion.

There were sharp protrusions coming out of the wall inside, so I was lucky not to be penetrated by them.

I will treat three people and set up an environment for others to sleep in.

It was still too early to develop the environment for sleeping, but it was nonsense to go to the troubled party at a burden.

Are you okay?

Leave me alone!

"Oh! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"

Tana touches Petro's wound and is in a hurry.

"I was going to use my might well, but I was finally blown away... and Saddle and I, together."

"It was an unpredictable attack on Petro, so I and Donnate couldn't do anything about it."

"Sure... you haven't seen a lightweight Petro blown away lately."

"Don't you think that kind of power... is a bit cunning?!"

"I don't know if it's cunning... but I know that Grandma Arten made it too strong.It's against the rules to take almost no magic damage. "

It's also a natural enemy of witches.Because that's the goal, success may be a success. "

Whoever sees it, that beta doll performs well.

In addition, there is a fear that reasonable judgment, including that of escape, will be done lightly because there are no emotions, such as monsters and people.

"Well, I knew beta was scary, so now I don't know how to defeat it..."

"We know that Sinya's attacks are common, and it's a big premise to fight with them on the axis… I don't know what to do with our movements."

"Why don't you just cut off another leg like that?"

"So Petro and the others must have been hurt.Injury meant it was an impossible operation. "

"This won't get into the wound."

"I wonder if you could say the same thing if you were stuck in a sharp projection on the wall?"

"Ugh...."

"You know what Sinya meant when she took the time to do it.If you say the right thing, Sinya will get angry. "

Suddenly my name came up and all of a sudden I got angry.

What an irrational thing to say... but what Pro-Merte is saying is what I was thinking, and what I'm saying to Pro-Merte is different...

"Say, isn't there much I or Donnate can do?"

I'm going to open my mouth because I'm not going to talk like this.

"In the meantime, I think you should change your formation if you're dealing with regular monsters or beta."

Are you saying it's a different formation than the one you gave me the last instruction for?

"Ah. Now it's a pretty long line, because Saddle, Donnate, Petro, Nil, come with me behind it, and Promerte and Tana behind it..."

"It's almost a vertical row."

"But then, when we slash Saddle and Donatee into the gap, we'll have quite a temporal shift.

Others may be vulnerable to lateral attacks or difficult to deal with from behind. "

"It's basically a formation of enemies from the front, and you knew that."

"This is a cave, and there will be an overwhelming number of attacks from the front and back than from the side, and for us moving forward, the attack from the back is not even expected.

At its root, Nil's defenses, promerte, and tana are S-ranked adventurers, and they will be able to deal with them... but they are very different when fighting beta. "

"When you stand in a large hall, like before, the vertical formation will collapse, and I think it is attracting disadvantageous elements.

I reassigned my role as a first aid, but it was only a first aid. "

"In other words, even if we meet in the hall, it should be a formation that can create a favorable situation in a formal sense...

I suppose I agree with that opinion. [M]When someone is injured, it turns out it's an inappropriate formation for Beta. "

"After all, it's better to focus on Shinya-san and Niru-chan and form a line that is easy for them to attack, right?"

"Of course, but I think the problem is better to protect.

This party has a lot of attackers in the first place.I specialize in attack rather than defense, and I don't think there's much to attack. "

"I agree with you on that."

Eagle Crow is an S-ranked adventurer party, and I think it's a high level of attack and defense, but it's more aggressive than defense.

But for Eagle Crowe, beta is the one who doesn't know if he can win.It doesn't work, and it's hard to push such opponents with a burst attack.

Of course, the form and movement for such times should be within the Eagle Crow.We need to build defensive formations based on that, so that we can counter that intense power and that fast speed.

"But you can't change your weapons."

"I don't need to be defensive.If you can handle the beta, that's fine. "

"Of course, it would be nice if Promerte and Turner were not targeted."

"That's right. Turner's the safest place to protect it, Promerte.You should think of this place as fixed. "

and waited for the injury to recover, and discussed it slowly until the end of the day, until everyone was satisfied.

The answer thus came out was simpler than expected.

Saddle and Nil are in charge of the leading right and left, respectively.

I'm on the Nil side, behind the left.Petro on the side of Saddle, behind the right.

It is in the form of a donnate in the middle just behind it.If you look at the five people from above, it's either a pentagon, a diamond shape, or a formation like that.

And behind that is Tana and Promerte.

If the rear two are targeted, the first four will fall back and become the most defensive formation by deforming into a shape like a lid on Turner and Promerte.

The plan of the formation went that way or that way, but it felt like it ended up in the shape of Theory Street.

A similar formation is based on that used by Eagle Crow's five dignitaries when they were asked to escort a VIP.

In this formation, when Saddle and Nil catch the attack and make a slight gap, I or Petro on the left and right can play a little bit, and when a big gap is made, Donnate can attack.

It doesn't make sense because only Nil and I can play effectively...?You might think, but Petro and I can switch positions, Nil and Saddle can switch positions.

It is definitely easier to swap with your neighbor than to move forward and backward during a battle.The neighbor should be caught at the edge of the line of sight, so the timing is easy to adjust.

In addition, Beta was sure to catch Petro, Saddle, and Donnate's attacks with her hands and feet.We've stopped them several times, and we know they're finally going to get hurt.

I don't think you can do that kind of applied behavior because it's systemic behavior, but if you can see that, their attack also plays a very important role as an indirect approach to the effective beating that I and Nil release.

"I've talked to you for a long time, but I'm sure this will work, and then we'll just find Beta and destroy it."

"Nil, do you know the hole where the beta went in?"

"Yes, I made sure to mark the map and the passage.You can't make a mistake. "

"That's Niru-chan! Very capable!"

"It's different from Petro, isn't it?"

"Promerte sucks!"

"Fufufu."

I'm glad there's still room for laughter.

Saddle's wounds healed easily with the wound medicine.

"It's time for us to take a nap and get up before we move on."

"That's right... fuahh..."

Promerte gives a cute stretch (yawn) while holding hands.

There were fights with Beta, and I used my head to talk about the formation, so I guess I'm tired.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm a little tired..."

Promerte smiled embarrassed.

Before I fell asleep sitting down, I decided to put up a watch in turn and get him to sleep first.
