EP.69 Snake Covered Forest (3)

How do warriors deal with magical attacks?

The most basic and simple way is to raise the special ability ‘resistance’.

I have three resistance stats: poison, water, and fire.

Among these, poison is not a result of the manifestation of magic, so it is not discussed, but water resistance and fire resistance certainly exert great power against the type of magic attack or magic.

‘Since the fire resistance level is 8 right now… .’

Unlike the basic stats, 8 is a pretty high number for special stats.

The fire-based magic of any D-class holder does not even hit at all.

However, special methods were needed to raise the resistance level.

Acquire runes related to that series, or have talents from the beginning…

Or even that, to manifest through special items.

It is not easy for ordinary warriors to obtain these special abilities.

Besides, even I, who has a lot of resistance ability, didn’t have ‘lightning resistance’.

‘The second is to wear a shield.’

If the level of [Shield] is high and the equipment level is good, the holder’s defense technique alone can catch a magical attack.

This is why most of the warrior-type holders who claim to be tanks use shields and prefer sword-fighting warriors.

However, neither Kwon Oh-jun nor Shin Yuna use shields.

Oh-Jun Kwon was an offensive warrior who used a spear as her main weapon, and Yuna Shin was an evasive warrior who used speed.

Oh-jun Kwon is a high-ranking holder with a lot of experience and a grade A, but Shin Yuna, who is weak in magical attacks, was a battle that could be dangerous if twisted.

“Calm down, Yuna Shin! Me and Do Jae-hyeon will be in the lead first, so you lure them mainly to avoidance!”

“Yes Yes!”

Fortunately, Kwon Oh-jun immediately recognized Shin Yuna’s anxiety.

I immediately gave an instruction to announce the start of the battle, and I, too, grabbed my shield and sprinted forward quickly.

shoot ah-

oo-!!

A total of 6 Electroporus.

They crossed the waterway at high speed and rushed at us.

The speed is quite high, but enough to cover it.

My shield, which was ready, prevented one man’s head-butt.

Just in case, the [Iron Wall Defense] skill was used sparingly.

Kaan-!!

Parts, parts!

“Ugh… !!”

Since it’s not a monster with high strength, the shock itself is weak.

However, he is a monster that utilizes lightning-type magical attacks.

the moment it collided.

A large amount of electricity emanating from the living body flowed through the shield.

‘Oh, it stings.’

My mind was blown.

Even though I used the defensive skill [Iron Wall Defense], this is enough.

[Hobgoblin’s Bronze Shield] was pre-packed with magical power, so if it had been a shield that couldn’t block magic attacks, it might have been electrocuted and stunned.

oo-!!

There was no time to rest.

One attack was blocked by a shield, but the other was digging into my empty body.

Even if the six monsters are arithmetically divided, there are two per warrior class.

There were at least two monsters I had to take charge of.

‘You can’t block it with a sword.’

It was possible to block the first monster’s attack because [Hobgoblin’s Bronze Shield] was a rare shield that blocked magical attacks.

It was too late to turn the shield and block once more.

However, if a sword is used, there is a high probability of being electrocuted by lightning-type magical attacks.

Completely defenseless against the attacks of another monster.

There was only one thing I could write about in such an instantaneous situation.

“stop!”

oh, that’s a shame

In a rush, this word came out without me knowing.

Still, the effect was clear.

Electroporus, which flew in from the right, stopped moving as if he had been electrocuted.

… I didn’t stop telling you to stop.

[Intimidation] It was the effect of [Declaration of War], a derivative skill of the rune.

‘It still doesn’t work for many.’

The current [Overwhelming] rune is level 2.

That is why the scope of [Declaration of War] is not wide.

It didn’t work for Shin Yuna and Kwon Oh-jun’s side monsters, and only the two monsters I was in charge of were caught in fear and stopped for a while.

And I had no intention of leaving him alone.

‘Bomb replacement technique!’

Using the weapon swapping technique, put the shield in the bag and change the weapon to a two-handed sword.

Then he jumped right into the Electroporus.

Shree-!

oo-!!

The movement of the sword using the [Running Swordsman] and [Strike].

The unique stabbing of [Wave Sword Technique] that immediately follows.

It’s a bonus to include the [Simmering Flame] that has risen to level 7.

The more attacked the monster, the weaker the defense.

This is like a formula for hunting monsters.

Electroporus, which had a low durability, allowed me to use a variety of runes and combine my sword attack too easily.

He suffered severe trauma and struggled with pain.

“Ugh… !”

Of course, I wasn’t perfect either.

He’s a monster with an enormous amount of bioelectricity.

Even if you don’t need to use lightning-type magic attacks, it spews out a huge amount of electricity on its own.

Thanks to that, I rode the stabbed sword, and electricity came over to me.

‘It might be a little dangerous.’

The monster on the right almost died.

On the other hand, the guy on the left was relieved of his fear and was able to run again.

I sat on the ground for a moment.

He immediately performed the weapon change technique and raised the shield.

So that you can defend right away.

I can’t use [Iron Wall Defense] anymore, but the shield didn’t break, so I was still able to do basic tanking.

“uh… ?”

However, there was no expected risk.

In other words, the danger itself was completely blocked.

Surung- Tsutsutsu-

oo-!!

A man appeared in front of me with fierce speed.

Almost the same speed as teleportation.

Movements that seem to have reached the limit of speed values and proficiency in the proficiency rune.

It was Choi Dong-wook, an assassin from the party.

He was holding a shortsword, one in each hand.

He ran towards the Electroporus without hesitation.

After stepping on the guy’s head and cutting him once.

Jumps up, spins around in the air, and lands on the torso.

There, he swung his short swords in both hands as if riding a stairway and cut him down.

slaughter.

Choi Dong-wook’s dagger technique was flashy and full of speed, to the extent that the expression “slaughter” was just right.

I stared blankly at the scene.

‘Wow… That’s what you do.’

It was different from me, who only used [Dagger] for the purpose of throwing, because I was not educated in the academy to use daggers.

Choi Dong-wook used two short swords, slightly longer than daggers, like his own limbs, and freely split the monster’s body.

I don’t know what runes or skills were used in it, but he was clearly showing the strength and style of the ‘Assassin’ series.

If there is a chance.

I wanted to learn the dagger technique properly from him.

Shoo- wow-!!

Aww!!

It didn’t end there.

This time, magic flew and attacked the monsters.

One is fire, the other is wind.

It was the attack magic of Kang Joo-yeon and Kim Seong-cheol, who were ready.

The Electroporus in front of me, who was in a moribund state, died as it was, and the monsters in charge of the other team members were in a similar situation.

“… … .”

I scratched my head and watched the scene quietly.

It was really casual.

The battle was over in an instant.

Shin Yu-na’s side seemed quite difficult to take on two dogs alone, but she managed to finish the hunt somehow with the support of Min Chae-hwan, an archer, and the support of her magician team.

Oh-joon Kwon doesn’t need to say anything.

He alone played two Electroporus.

Bruger’s ability to fight using a spear had reached its limit, and there were only two corpses and a pool of blood around him.

‘… That’s why it’s the 3rd generation clan.’

<Judgment of Fire>.

Together with <Royal> and <Dragon Swordsman>, this group is called one of the three major clans in Korea.

As if proving that they were not called the best clan for nothing, they displayed tremendous power and finished the battle in an instant.

30 seconds? 40 seconds?

I think it took about that amount of time.

Coming to Inwangsan Field, the comparison itself was embarrassing compared to when she and Shin Yuna were fighting together.

“The battle is over. Everyone suffered.”

Kwon Oh-jun briefly announced the end.

I even looked at Yuna Shin, who was in a panic.

“Shin Yuna. Are you okay?”

“… Yes Yes. it’s okay… .”

Shin Yuna barely raised her voice and answered.

The answer is somehow, but in fact, it’s not okay to just look at it.

I did just that.

She is not a shield holder like me, nor does she have the overwhelming power to defeat two monsters alone like Oh-Jun Kwon.

Evasive tanking warrior series.

He was clearly a holder of attractive abilities, but he tended to be vague in front of monsters who used magical attacks like before.

Thanks to you, Min Chae-hwan, Kang Joo-yeon, and Kim Seong-cheol.

Three of the rear support members were in charge of the monster on Shin Yu-na’s side.

Yuna Shin was naturally aware of that fact, so she must be thinking that she is a nuisance in the team now.

“Huh- Mr. Newbie is having a hard time-”

“Ah, Sumi Lee Holder.”

As in any battle, Sumi Lee approached.

Then, while demonstrating divine power, he lightly touched me.

This time the light was purple, not pale green.

“Intern, were you electrocuted earlier? I’ll write you a rest.”

[Rest] is a skill focused on stabilization among various buff skills of the divine series.

It was the most necessary treatment for me, who was briefly electrocuted by the monster earlier.

As I tried to thank her, I frowned at the touch of her hand that was gently poking into my chest again.

This woman is a repeat offender.

“I’m grateful… too inward… ”

“Uh-oh, I made a mistake.”

After Lee Su-mi spoke sternly.

Naturally, he moved his hand to his shoulder.

Then he approached me again and brought up the topic I talked about earlier.

“Comfort me a little bit later, Mr. I think I was a little disappointed in this battle.”

It’s surprising.

He was someone who could say things like this.

Again, it seems that people should not be judged by their appearance, attire, tone of voice, and actions.

I nodded my head and answered.

“It is a learning process. Perhaps the more Shin Yuna keeps fighting, the better she will do than she is now.”

“Hey- you say that intern-san fights so well, don’t you? Isn’t one of the two birds almost all caught by the intern?”

“… I was lucky.”

Actually, I wasn’t lucky.

As Sumi Lee said, I fought well, and it was easier than I thought.

Electroporus is a monster with a strong attack but weak defense.

Because of that, before he gets attacked, he launches an intense attack.

It is a magical attack that is easy to get hit by a holder who focuses on attack.

However, it was easy because I had many runes to combine defense and attack.

The well-balanced combination of my runes was perfect for hunting him.

[Declaration of War], which inflicts fear for about 3 seconds, was also a very moral skill.

Even without the support of the party, I would have been able to catch two of them by myself somehow.

I have a long way to go until I reach level B, but…

The rune utilization really felt like it had reached the threshold of level B.

[Flowing water and rough water. Your understanding of dealing with two opposing qualities will deepen.]

[The level of the ‘Wave Swordsmanship’ rune has risen.]

[The level of the ‘Running Swordsman’ rune has risen.]

[You have won the duel! Victory is recognized for high contribution in duels. With the mysterious power of the Rune Hunter, you can duplicate one of your opponent’s runes. Please select a rune to duplicate.]

And it seems to give him more power.

My own reward for hunting monsters is always in front of my eyes.
