Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle
Episode 768: "Battle Meritorious"
The "Fang King Albordil-Laodura" and his subordinates of the "Fang Island of the Black Pig" boss enemies were annihilated.
The expansion protocol has progressed.
The new field Ruins of the Old Bone Island has been released.
When I heard the fanfare echoing, I knew I'd made it. Then, a little later, a cheer sprang up from the depths of the forest.
"Ha, ha, ha... our victory?"
An intact and exhausted chiffon looked around with suspicious eyes, supporting his body with an ice sword instead of a cane. However, there were no more stubborn cowards attacking her. All the orcs that were gushing out to fill their sights were fallen.
Apparently, that's what it looks like.
I nod as I sit down on a nearby fallen tree.
Oh my, I'm tired of rocks. Even though the time was about 30 minutes, you can withstand the body when you move as much as you can. Although I'm breathing on my shoulder, I can't help but feel the age difference from the chiffon that is somehow standing.
She must have defeated quite a few Orcs and made a big contribution to the strategy. Sometimes it was thrown into the orc herd with too much force, so I had to return it in some form later.
“So who is the MVP after all?”
"I have to check that as well."... maybe someone other than me is already checking it out. "
"Isn't that what Mr. Ledge said?" No one else would be convinced, and no one would want to. ”
"I see..."
Words betting on one's hopes are completely truncated. As I dropped my shoulders, I went with my chiffon to the middle of the forest.
"Hey, you're here, Mr. Ledge!"
"Thank you, Letty." Everyone else did it, too. "
At the side of the huge boss, the "Fang King Albordil-Laodura" wreck, players gathered at the front line of the battle to enjoy the aftertaste of victory.
When Chiffon and I approached, Letty noticed first and rushed over to us with her ears pinned. Toka, Amy, and Mikage are all here, and they seem to have healed their wounds.
"It's been a long time since I put all my strength out." I'm looking forward to presenting the results. ”
"I managed to cut my neck, too." I'm sure it's my winner. "
Well, well, I don't know unless I look at the results.
Lettie and the others seem to be confident, and they are not giving in to each other. Amy, who was watching over it, also sent her gaze to us.
"Mikage worked hard at the Triathlon." How did it go? "
"... basically, the miscellaneous hunting." Quite a lot, I knocked it down ”
It seems that Mikage cooperated with the members of the Triathlon and was active under the edge. Curse magic is a useful technique for bringing together and defeating native creatures of the same lineage, and it would have cursed quite a few orcs.
In any case, there are many synergies between the members of the Triple Magic Alliance, and it can be expected in that regard.
By the way, where's Lacto?
The four talked calmly and looked around. I couldn't find a girl who was supposed to be here.
"After the last shot, you fell into the forest." I thought I'd pick you up, but I was told to wait for you because I'd be joining you soon. "
Letty frowned worriedly. Apparently, only Lacto was lost.
"The lacto was amazing, too. Even after the Giant Conversion Technique is solved, it can still fly in the air and rain down ice like rain!"
Huh. That's what I wanted to see.
I opened the map while hitting Letty with my hammer. I'm throwing a party with Lacto, so you'll know exactly where he is.
"You're unexpectedly close." I'll pick you up. "
"Well then, let's go with Letty and the others." It's also troublesome to go out of your way to separate. "
If you look at the map, you can see that Lacto is in the woods nearby. Maybe she can't move. She looked strange, so she could be in trouble by herself.
We walk together, we walk through the woods. Because the remains of the boss are still there, the usual native creatures have not shown up either. Walk the peaceful field to the marker location shown on the map.
"Well, it's supposed to be around here..."
You're not here, are you?
Letty leans over the dense woods. Nothing but the whispering of the branches and the crowing of the birds. I don't see any blue hair that can see through.
"Hey! Rakuto, are you there?"
I'm here to pick you up!
I put my hand on my mouth and called out. Then there was a small rustle overhead.
What a slave!
"Uuhii!?"
Suddenly, Torka swung her sword and pushed the tip of the sword upwards. Then a lovely scream rose from the leaves.
"It's Tamma Toka!"
Letty pulls Toka's shoulder. When our gaze gathered at one point, a gentle lacto emerged from it.
"Ah, hahaha. Everyone's here."
She puts her face through the leaves of the trees and smiles awkwardly. He seemed surprised that we had come all the way here to find him.
Of course. Let's get to the boss quickly.
"Y-yeah, that's right. But I'm going to rest a little longer--"
"Could it be that you can't move?" I can't help it. Letty will help you! "
Letty stepped forward in a lacto shaking her head to the side. Could the lacto not move because of the rapid loss of LP? In that case, a state abnormality such as "stunning" occurs, but it seems to be conscious, and I don't really understand it.
"Hey, hey!"
Lact shakes his head in a panic. But Lettie had already jumped up to her branches.
Here, let's let Letty down gently!
"Uuhhhh!?"
Letty hugs Lacto's body and lands lightly. It was the lacto plane that was frosty and frozen to the touch.
"Wow!? What is this?!"
"It seems that there is a state abnormality called" freezing "." If you use the Water Attribute Machine spell too much, it will occur, and you won't be able to move until the ice melts. "
It seems that it is frozen from toe to toe, and the lacto cannot move at all except from the neck to the top. Her fuselage was wrapped in ice like a dress with many sharp angles.
"This ice is incredible, isn't it?"
"The exterior of the machine (Arts Armor), the 'Dancer of the Luminous Ice (Issyk-Kul Skater)'." "Frozen" is a reaction to this, isn't it? "
To listen to her story, she reproduced something like a piece of equipment with mechanical magic. [Ice Dancer] is one of them, and it consists of developing several ice attribute machines.
Temporarily gain high maneuverability and flight ability by ejecting cold air, but after use, the body freezes due to recoil.
"Oh, please tell me that as soon as possible." Lettie and the others will take you to the apron. "
"No, no... hahaha"
I can't take it, letty swells my cheeks. But Lacto only gives back a clumsy smile.
- Huh?
At that time, Amy noticed something.
She turns her gaze to Lacto's left hand, sharpening her eyes.
"Lacto, what is this ring?"
"Heehee"
Amy's voice went down a bit. Lact screams briefly at her question and looks for the ring as Letty and Amy panicked. I also turned my gaze to you and unexpectedly raised my voice.
"Oh, this is the one I gave you."
Ah, hey, Ledge!
Looking in some panic, Lact turns his gaze to us and complains. But what's stuck in her finger is the "Saltikis Ring" I gave her before. I was glad to have used it properly, and I smiled unexpectedly.
"Nuahhhh!?!?!?!"
"Yubi, hwa, yubi..."
"What do you mean, Reggie?"
Letty and the others were confused, surrounded by a lacto that paleened their faces. Amy and the others looked at me with a grim smile that made their spine cold.
"What a ring for a mechanic." I've had a lot of trouble with Lacto the other day. I bought it as an apology. "
"Hwa, hwa..."
"Oh my God... this is why Mr. Reggie..."
When I explain the situation, Letty and the others startled, lifted their eyes, and changed their expressions. In the end, she sighed loudly and tiredly.
"Well, I know that Mr. Ledge isn't that much of a thinker..."
If you're so grandiose, you'll be ridiculous.
"Hah, as usual."
For some reason, I'm impressed.
"Ahahah. Well, that's it..."
Lacto smiled bitterly as he moved his melted legs and walked out. Letty and Toka grabbed the shoulder firmly.
"I'm not finished yet, Lacto."
“Yeah, I'm curious, Letty, about why you're wearing that finger.”
Eek
Apparently, there's something else I'd like to ask you. Just then, I got a call from the telephone and I lost consciousness.
Hello, are you Mr. Ledge? I'd like to request an "autopsy appraisal" soon. "
"Aye. I'm sorry, I'll be right there."
I've talked a lot about it, but I've been entrusted with the honorable task of dismantling the boss. I apologize to Ai and call out to Letty and the others.
"I'm sorry, I'm going to the boss first." Everyone, join us slowly. "
"Hey, Ledge!? Don't leave me alone!"
Fufu, let's talk about Lacto!
"Fufuah!?"
Leaving the fun-loving lactos in place, I run back under the boss. There, the eyes were now waiting for the autopsy.
While I cut my sword, I jump into it and take out the dismantling knife in front of the boss who lies on his back.
Well then, let's do it.
Please.
Check with the eye to activate the "Autopsy Appraisal".
Apart from the complex red line, which is different from the usual dismantling, the blue line also appears on the surface of the boss. If we don't trace all of them perfectly, we won't be able to do a detailed appraisal.
"We are ready to set up a scaffolding with the help of Mr. Crouli and the others." Please give instructions to everyone over there. "
"Roger that. Thank you."
With a solid eye, you can't be unprepared. With the help of the craftsmen, he advances the knife while using the scaffold.
"Phew, it's hard to be a stone."
Frontline field boss, that's the giant too. Not only does it not end with a single "autopsy appraisal," but it also keeps working while activating it over and over again.
Sometime around the boss, the smoke rose, and a temporary base was built by the camper, and even an audience seat was built.
Even when exposed to myriad gazes, I forget them and immerse myself in the work. The more you concentrate, the more you break your connection to the outside world and immerse yourself in a lonely world.
Follow the red line. Follow the blue line. It didn't come off slightly from there.
"Awesome..."
"I can often do such delicate work."
Speed isn't human either.
The same Dismantler players seemed to have a keen eye on my every move.
Even so, we have been dismantling a variety of protozoa every day since the beginning of the settlement. I have some confidence in that arm.
Follow the line like a tangled yarn and advance with a white knife. It's like a huge maze, but if you solve it, it'll be over soon. And a big boss as big as this pile--
"Appraisal Complete"
Cut the point where the red and blue lines intersect and exhale a lot.
Unknowingly, I wiped the sweat from the balls I was scratching and raised my face. A lot of gaze was pouring on me that exceeded my expectations. They are looking forward to the results.
I'll check the Rizal window.
Dismantling accuracy, S rank. Anatomical accuracy, S rank. Satisfactory, perfectly done. I want to thank everyone for entrusting me.
I'll take a look at the details of the bosses listed in the window. The total amount of damage taken and dealt. The total amount of damage per weapon category. Defense per location, resistance to various attributes, and attack. And more. There's all kinds of information about the boss and his situation in there. The only thing we need to find out...
"Damage taken, largest player"
The individual who did the most damage to this massive body.
I told you to play with the MVP.
Find the name and tilt your head.
"Lacto and Eye."
Long silence.
When I suddenly wandered my gaze, I could find an eye with my eyes round. There is also a lacto standing somewhere else, surrounded by Lettie and the others.
"Ehhhh!?"
Immediately after that, a stunned voice boiled up like a weir was cut.
Eye falls from her knees, and Lacto is admired by Lettie and the others.
I checked the Rizal window again.
"The damage done directly to the boss was very close and lactuous, but at the same time, Eye also earned a lot of special damage in the Orc Crusade." Can I put this in the count? "
"Oh, that's...!"
Asked Ai, she thinks with a complicated expression.
She became an MVP by singing battles covering a wide range of areas. We've wiped out countless orcs, and as a result, we've drastically reduced the amount the boss recovers.
"Please don't be ridiculous. That kind of thing should be included in the damage count--"
I'll come in.
Christina, who was caught between her eyebrows, approached. However, blocking her words, Eye nodded. His eyes were blurry, but he was staring straight at me.
"I'm going in, I'm determined to go in. So, Mr. Ledge, I also have the right to nominate, right?"
What? Me?
Yes.
Apparently, it was me when I wondered who Eye was going to nominate. "I don't think I'm strong enough to play with Ai..."
"Fufu, fufufu... I can't miss this chance."
"Hey, deputy commander? What--"
"Kristina, please shut up for a moment! You can't lose here!"
"Yeah..."
With the word of the First Officer out of the question, Eye shakes my hand. Whether it was put on the flow of the field or not, I wonder if my eyes are quite alright.
"Hey, wait a minute!"
At that time, the voice rises from another direction.
Looking back, there was a lacto behind you with Letty and the others.
"I, I was in first place at the same rate!" So, if it's pure direct damage, I'm the first! "
"I didn't say direct damage. The only point of contention is how much damage you've done to your boss!”
The lacto that raises the objection is rarely resisted by the eye. Both of them usually have a pacifist character.
"I have a lot to say, but for now, I'm on Lacto's side. I don't care if you take it outside of the White Deer Anchor.
Letty-san?
I was questioning Lettie's words, but my voice was cut through. Is it okay to assume that Lacto is also nominating me?
"In the meantime, you two can discuss it." I'm going to spend the whole day with either one of you. "
When I said that, Eye and Lact nodded firmly to each other without turning their gaze away.
Let's start with me, shall we?
I was the first one.
... the debate seemed to last a long time.
"Reggie, Reggie, can I have a minute?"
"Wow, if you think of anyone, it's Mel."
Eye and Lacto are suddenly pulled out of their clothes as they vaguely see that they are having a heated argument. Turning around, Mel was standing in a scarlet robe.
Can you show me some of the results of the appraisal?
"Yeah, sure. Check it out."
Apparently, she also wanted to know the results of the [autopsy appraisal]. There must be no injustice, and I have no reason to refuse. Disclosing the results, she enthusiastically loaded it and placed her finger on one of the rows.
"Hey, Ledge."
What?
Here. The top of the total fire damage is like me.
Looks like it.
It is a detailed column that is divided into each damage item. Of the damage in each of those attributes, the fire attribute has Mel at the top. After all, the name "Flame Hair" at the top of "Seven Sages" is probably not Date.
"This is also the top of the damage amount." Can I get a silver medal? "
"Silver medal? What do you want?"
When I lean my neck, she laughs. It's like you were waiting for my word.
"I see. You don't say you have the right to nominate for a day, so it's about half a day?"
"I see. Well, that's good enough for you, isn't it?"
Anyway, it was my fault. If it's a reason for her to play with someone, feel free to use it. With such casual nods, Mel has been holding my hand for a moment.
Alright, let's make a reservation.
"... yes?"
I'll have Ledge hang out with me for half a day.
Me, huh?
Apparently, she's going to nominate me. I'm not familiar with the field of mechanical magic, so I think I can only be practical... I mean, if you ask me out normally, I'll play.
Ledge-san, in that theory, I'm the top slashing attribute.
"Toka!?"
He was suddenly slapped on the shoulder and looked back, and a toka with a smile was standing. Letty and the others were there.
If it's a blow attribute, it's Letty.
If it's a counter-attack, it's me.
If it's Earth, it's me.
If it's thunder, it's me.
So I'm the top of the wind.
"Guru...... The water attribute is Lacto-san after all....."
Letty and the others, starting with Toka, insisted one after the other. I don't think there's anything wrong with saying that, but they were serious about their eyes.
"Um, even if we don't have to fight there--"
"It's important!" I can't give up for half a day! "
"Yeah..."
You didn't listen to me at all.
Hmm, it's not clear!
When this happens, let's let Mr. Ledge decide!
There comes Lact and Eye, whose arguments have become stuck. Let's start with them.
"... for now, please tell me when it is open"
I was overwhelmed to get their attention and anticipate the upcoming hell schedule adjustment.
