Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.

Lesson 523: Hydnese (2)

If you're a quick-acting lethal poison, you'll have to use either the poison of Aitvarus or the poison of the mushrooms. However, neither of them directly affects the skin and leads to death, and if they are scattered in the air, we are also dangerous. Both poisons are powerful, but you shouldn't misuse them.

Realistically, if you choose a poison that can be used, it will be around a strong acidic solution, a poisonous solution, and then a dissolution solution. However, if you use it outside other than the dissolution solution, you will need assistance such as wind magic. I don't think I have time for that, and I think the only thing I can use is the lysate.

"With the dissolution solution that Surakutan made for me, I might be able to do something about it..."

"I'll be more careful when I use it..."

If the lysate is returned as a spray, we will die.

"First of all, I'll check again to see if I can really get slashed." Cover me. ”

"I understand. It's just... I can't take a hit from that Gigas man."

Gigas?

"It's about that big guy. They look the same as the Humans, but they are not Humans, they belong to a race called the Gigas. The muscle mass is different from that of the human race, so I'm sure it's true."

I've never seen a Gigas before, but I've only heard of them. Whatever it is, it looks exactly the same as the human race, but it seems that its muscle mass greatly exceeds that of the human race and its physique is huge. However, when I was told that it was a big man of the human race, it seemed that it was a size that seemed to be the case, and it was difficult to tell if I didn't know.

After I was told, I realized that Menuto's muscle mass was lightly outweighed by others, and I was convinced.

The Gigas were based far south of here, close to the strobes of the Holy Knights, so I didn't see them on the journey until now.

By the way... the Holy Knights began their progression around the world, and the Gigas' city was conquered early. The Gigas aren't all there, and it seems that those who were away from the city were safe, but this man, Menuto, is one of them.

The Gigas were already dominated, but I didn't have to be alarmed by the possibility that Menuto might be connected to the Holy Knights.

Until now, I didn't see any connection with the Holy Knights, and I could exclude them at a time when the Black Dog, who was part of the demonic race that had affairs with the Holy Knights, was involved. Simply one of the Gigas, far from the city.

What kind of people are these Gigas? To put it simply, it was the Mini-Giants. Even though I'm a giant, I don't really know how to stick to a mini, and it doesn't feel like a mini in the first place, but the power is extraordinarily strong when it comes to looking close to the human race. With an average height of about 190 centimeters, it is said that the power is nearly three times that of the human race.

Menuto is a Gigas tribe that values such power, and the power added to it is the power of the Giants.

I experienced the power of the Giants, Anti and Kanti. That power, no matter how many players, is impossible to take unless it is a defense specialization status. Of course, I'm not specializing in defense. Meaning, we don't have the means to take Menuto's attack. Probably... first of all, you can definitely blow off all the defensive magic.

Besides, our attack won't work for some reason.

The combination of tremendous defense and tremendous power... is the worst.

At the very least, if we can figure out the cause of this unusual defense and how to deal with it, we'll see a winner too. We have no choice but to do something about it.

Menuto's power was a considerable threat, but his speed was not a big deal. With me and Nil, it would be difficult to avoid, and no matter how strong you hit it, it didn't make sense. Well, it's not physically or mentally easy to keep on attacking just by drifting to death, but... me and Nil shouldn't be a problem.

I will attract the attention of Yuvolakos and Menuto, and Nil will attract the attention of Fa 'er and the surrounding Conscripts. And for a little while, I think I'll do something about it. In the meantime, if we don't find a way to do some damage, we'll get really fucked up.

"Even though I'm wasting my time..."

Coming!

I also understand that Nil will share the role, and when Menuto moves, he immediately leaves me and switches to a move to deal with the surrounding soldiers.

"Hmph!!"

* giggle *! * giggle * * giggle!

A powerful battle hammer that cracks the ground with a single blow. Though it is firmly avoided, its destructive power is enough to atrophy the viewer. If it hadn't been for Andy and Kanti, I might have been more vigilant than I needed to be.

Haa!

Gah!

I tried to run the blade on the arm that was swung down to check if the attack didn't work, just like Yuborakos, but the result was the same, and I only slightly cut the surface. I didn't know if Fowel was going to do the same, but I could assume the attack wouldn't go through.

Waste!

Oh, my God!

The Yuborakos are coming from the left rear against me who attacked Menuto.

Gin!

Shit!

I tried using Yuvolakos' attack to run the blade around my neck, but it did not do any damage. It's so troublesome that I accidentally hit my tongue. Neither the arm nor the neck can penetrate the blade at all. If the whole body is in the same state, it will play no matter where you attack.

Why are you waiting for such an intense skin, and what is the maximum intensity... To investigate, you need to swing the sword as hard as you can, but if you can't still get hurt, the sword could be damaged.

"Nnnnnn!!"

Boo-hoo!

Menuto and Yuvolakos are totally aiming at me. I haven't even seen Nil. It seemed that it was judged that I was the one who had the trouble of leaving it. Or did you decide that Nil could be suppressed by Far El alone?

As far as I'm concerned, it was good because I was going to take care of these two, but I think the three of Hydnese would be more advantageous if they quickly crushed either me or Nil... no, maybe...

If you think about it carefully, it's too strange that the black dog didn't attack us when we were resting in a state of inertia. He was definitely going to take care of me and Nil. And yet, ignoring a situation that could be described as the greatest chance and poking around, it would be strange if there was no reason.

Among the possible reasons for this is my sacred soul magic.

What if the black dog knew that my soul magic could only be used twice a day... no, only twice a day.

If the black dog had attacked us while we were taking a break and decided that I couldn't deal with it, I would definitely have used Holy Soul Magic without hesitation. If that happens, the black dog will suffer a lot of pain.

In other words, if you think that the series of flows so far and the three Hydnese in front of you are mainly targeting me to let me use holy soul magic, you can also explain why they didn't target Nil and why they didn't attack me when I was taking a break.

In short, I cut all the biggest trump cards called Holy Soul Magic, and then I cut down my health to the fullest. Maybe this is the Black Dog's plan. In short, they're using the bandits as shields for their sacred souls.

Hydnese's three opponents also had an unusually high defense and attack power, making them a very troublesome opponent. However, with Holy Soul Magic, it was easy to handle. Even so, there were many scenes where I was wondering if I would use holy soul magic, and that was enough to rot.

The Black Dog wants me to consume Holy Soul Magic quickly. I want to save it to the end as much as possible...

Until now, the situation has been difficult, but I can understand it if I think that all of it is to consume my sacred soul magic. Well, isn't it amazing that you came through such a series of situations without the Holy Soul Magic?

Shit!

Bububububu!

Avoid the Yuvolakos' attack while thinking about it. Their attacks can be avoided while thinking about it in the corner of their head, but the problem is their defense.

I put my thoughts back together and look at the bodies of the Yuborakos again.

There seemed to be nothing unusual about it, but if it went up to its defense with a later force, it should be wearing something that would strengthen both its attack and defense.

Bhhhhhhhh!

Fuck! Fuck!

I watched the two attackers in every corner... but I still couldn't find anything.

I have no idea what I could do to strengthen it like this.

Gi-jin!

"That's why it's useless!"

Oh, my God!

I run the blade to Yuvolakos, who pleasantly pushes out the knife, avoiding a counterattack.

It felt like I was hammering a sword into a metal bar.

"...... wait......"

If you think about it, it's a very strange story.

Even with a slash of a sword, the three Hydnese were moving around freely, even though they were as hard as a blade.

For example, if you were wearing something like metal, it would be the same as wearing metal armor. Metal is hard, ductile and ductile, but does not bend easily. That's why they're armor.

The majority of metals are softened by adding heat, freely altered in shape, and cooled and consolidated. When hardened, it naturally becomes stiff, and you can not freely change the shape.

In other words… hardness and flexibility are inversely proportional. The harder they get, the less flexibility they get, and the harder they get, the less hardness they lose.

If the explanation is easy to understand, it is better to consider the thickness of the iron plate. The thicker it is, the less you can cut it with your sword, and if it becomes like a thin film, it will be slashed with your sword.

It is the earliest law of physics, and it can be called the principle of the world. A material that is hard to bend is a material that should not be physically present. There is magic in the world, and there may be such things in the materials I don't know, but in this world, metal armor is mainly used, and there is no armor made of soft but hard material, so it can be said that there is no material in this world that ignores the laws of physics... or is not common.

In other words, for example, it is not possible to cover the whole body with something like an invisible thin film. Since the epidermis was slashed, the line that spreads magic in the body also disappeared.

When that happens, all possibilities will be lost... just one. There is a way to achieve a tremendous amount of defense by meeting those conditions.

In a nutshell, the image of a way to make it possible… is it a carbon nanotube? By a regular arrangement of fine structures, hardness can be obtained by structural strength rather than material strength, and yet some flexibility can be retained. Metal mesh and the like.

By braiding metal threads, it is possible to maintain some strength while having the flexibility to move freely. In this world, the chainmail, the chainhead, is exactly that.

Flexible yet stiff. Since there are few things that can satisfy such conditions, perhaps they are not wrong.

The first thing I came up with was a thread spider thread. Even if it wasn't strong enough to catch a sword in a single stone, just braiding a few of them and wrapping them around your body would make it a fine armor.

However, because the thread spider's thread has a sharpness like a sharp blade, even if it is braided, if it is made to adhere to the body, the skin will be crushed. Besides, if I wore such a thing, I would notice a boulder even if I wasn't as good-looking as Heine and the others. But I don't see anything like that, and my skin is normal. In other words, thread spider threads and similar items are excluded.

And the fact that the skin is slashed with a blade probably means that something has been inserted under the skin.

That's how I develop my thinking and move on to see what I can do.

I will aim for Yuborakos and focus on avoiding attacks first.

"Shit! I can't hit it!"

Boom!

* giggle *!

Menuto is attacking with annoyance, but he doesn't hit me with such a big shot. The Yuvolakos are moving fast, but that's still sweet.

I'm just good at running away!

Bubbly, bubbly!

Yuvolakos seems to be irritated too, jumping out in front of me and swinging his knife continuously.

The role of Yuvolakos is not that of a frontal attack, but of a flanking attack, but perhaps it is because of its high defense, and it has come forward quite forcefully. Because of this, Menuto, who was supposed to be on the front, could not come forward, and the cooperation was disrupted. In this case, the difference in the number of people at the corners is not utilized. After all, the fact that they won't get hurt when I attack them is a big one. He's in shape.

As far as I'm concerned, it's easier now, and I don't have any problems.

Hurry up and die!

Fuck! Fuck!

I see Yuvolakos attacking me several times in a row, and I shake my sword with each one of them.

There was no problem with the aiming anywhere, but it was easiest to aim around the two arms where the attack would come in.

Gah!

"How many times do I have to tell you?"

Oh, my God!

My attacks have not been damaged by Yuvolakos, as they were. But I knew that. Besides, the meaning of the attack was very different from before. Previously, I swung my sword to cut off my arm, so I swung the blade perpendicular to my arm. But this time, it was swung horizontally.

It doesn't depend on whether it's vertical or horizontal, it's just a way to see if my guess is true, and even if the attack doesn't go through, there's no problem.

My attack is like licking the left two arms of Yuborakos, and the blade scrapes the skin off the arm. As if by attack, only one thin skin of Yuvolakos' arm peels off.

As I stare at my skinless arm, I fall backwards.

"... I see."

If you look at the skinned part of the two arms of Yuvolakos, you can see that something is covering the skin underneath, as expected. The colour was pale and could not be seen from the top of the skin, but when the skin was peeled off, it became visible.

What was expected was that what existed subcutaneously was a collection of things like thin threads. What was slightly different from what I expected was that what covered the subcutaneous area was wrapped around randomly.

In general, my guess seems to be correct, but it's not that they're regularly building structures to increase their strength, but that they're trying to bury the surface with bugs anyway. At first glance, the roots of the plants seem to cover the skin. Even if you say bushy, to the extent that you know it's like a plant root, you can see a few centimeters of gaps. If you think about passing the blade, it is a gap that can be almost passed, but there is a gap that you can't dare to aim at.

"Is that the true defense? -..."

In the end, I don't know what it is, but I think it's good that the plants that I'm looking at…

I don't know any plants that have strong roots that can be used as a kind of armor, nor do I know any plants that have roots under people's skin... No, it was a similar situation to Tana, who was trapped by Greenman, but it must be another plant.

Unfortunately, the Yuvolakos didn't know why their defenses were so high. Also, the subcutaneous roots may have something to do with why the power is unusually strong.

Once I knew what was inside my opponent's hand, I could think of a few ways to deal with it.

I don't know if it is really plants that have roots under their skin, but if they are plants, they are vulnerable to fire. If the roots burn, roast them with fire, and wipe them out.

In order to do that, it is necessary to make the opponent into a fire, but I don't think it will make it easy to use magic, so it is necessary to substitute it with something or create time to use magic. Or find another way to get rid of the roots... or just cut them off... or something like that will come up.

"Master, that's..."

For a moment, Nil, who calmed down at a distance from the enemy, came to me and asked.

I don't know what it is, but that's what defense is all about.

"You're disgusting, aren't you?"

“I agree with you superbly, but for now… I don't know what to do with it.”

I don't want to slash it, but if I slash it, I might be able to do a lot of damage, but can't I?

"Looking at the surface alone, it looks like the blade is going to pass, but if it's in that state, it'll be difficult to take any damage."

Besides, if you put a weapon in it weirdly, it won't come out... or in the worst case, it could break. Maybe we should stop.

More than that, I'm going to try a lot of things on my own if there's no other way. Meanwhile, take on Fa 'er. "

“Okay, I'll take care of it.”

"I beg you, but... the root of the plant..."

“Maybe it has something to do with the one who made the Kalka tree jump out of the human body.”

"When I'm told... they're both plants."

Maybe somebody got some tree magic we don't know. It doesn't make sense to think about it now. First of all, let's concentrate on what is before us. "
