Surviving the Game as a Barbarian – 358



Episode 358: Isolation (5)

Height is around 190 cm.

The lighthouse keeper a psychic from Noark who somehow has a physique better suited to a warrior than a blood knight.

I quenched my appetite as I looked at him.

‘Hehe… it would have been much easier if there had been [leap].’

The distance between him and me is about 130m.

This distance can be narrowed by using just two skills.

but….

‘What can I do? It’s gone.’

I tried to put my regrets behind me.

Well what can you do if you have regrets about something that has already disappeared?

If you don’t have a mobility device you have no choice but to move with your own two feet.

It also fits the barbarian spirit even more.

“Erwen Emily you two stay here and protect your seats.”

“…What about you uncle?”

“I’ll be back for a while.”

“Where are you going?”

Where could it be?

“The character used [Wild Eruption].”

I shouted and ran forward.

“Ooooooooooo!”

As expected it’s not the name of an ancestor so it doesn’t taste right but it can’t be helped.

Because I’m not sure if Raven caught me yet.

There is a possibility that like the corpse collector it may have further increased the misunderstandings that existed in the past.

Tadat.

As I who had been playing the defensive role and protecting my teammates left the formation for the first time there was an immediate reaction.

It started as a blood knight.

“….”

The guy who was far away so as not to fall into the teleportation range ran towards me.

but….

Kakak-!

Will that work?

It’s a flame sword that replaces Aurors. Just block it with a shield.

Tadat.

Ignore the blood knight and dash forward once more.

Of course it was difficult to shake him off with my agility so my back was exposed…

Suddenly!

Well you don’t necessarily have to block it with a shield.

Even if you just hit it with your body it will only result in a slightly deeper cut and will not lead to serious injuries such as limb amputation.

It just hurts a lot because of my low pain tolerance.

‘Oh it looks like the knife was put in salt.’

I frown at the surging pain but that doesn’t stop me from walking.

If I wasn’t the type to do things because I was sick I wouldn’t have come this far.

Tadat.

Like a salmon swimming up the river I hit the ground once more.

And that moment.

High praise burst out from the blood knight’s mouth.

“What the…!”

He must have been impressed by the sight of me continuing to dash forward regardless of whether I was stabbed from behind or not.

“Stop…!”

It was a bit dull compared to the praise I had received so far but the emotion of embarrassment in his voice made me quite satisfied.

Okay when have you ever experienced something like this?

If there was just one Auror the tank or something else would have been cut down.

Suddenly!

The guy didn’t even get tired and stabbed me again.

Of course nothing changed.

Whether you get a few cuts or not you just keep looking ahead and run like a runaway locomotive.

and….

“…!”

There is nothing he can do in that process.

Tadat.

It was time for this guy to feel it too.

You may not have realized it until now as you live a comfortable life thanks to the Aurors.

Suddenly!

Basically dealers are helpless in front of tanks.

Hehehe!

Just then support fire came from behind.

It was an arrow shot by Erwen.

and….

Phew.

The arrow hit the guy’s arm.

When we were just playing defense he was so good at avoiding me so what did he want to do to me?

I don’t know the details.

But his mistake this time was very decisive.

“…!”

As you can see just by looking at his already distorted expression.

Getting hit by an arrow may not be a big deal.

Because the follow-up hit that follows won’t be like that.

“Erwen Fornacci di Tercia casted [Rupture].”

The skill that once shattered Amelia’s clone.

Kwasik-!

When the skill was cast the Blood Knight’s arm split into dozens of pieces and fell apart.

Okay if you do this the annoying mosquitoes will disappear.

Tadat.

He continues running leaving behind the Blood Knight who fell from the impact of a broken arm.

Of course it wasn’t long before the next obstacle appeared.

“Wow that guy looks like some kind of ogre!”

The warlock Lyrane Vivian was leisurely watching my breakthrough from dozens of meters in the air.

The woman giggles and fires her magic.

“Liranne Vivien casted level 4 black magic [Corrupting Flame].”

It started with black flames pouring down widely like raindrops. However like most wide-area skills the single damage is bound to drop.

Covering her head with a shield like an umbrella it hits the ground against her.

Well it may cause some damage to the shield but…

‘It’s nothing new.’

Has your shield ever been intact after a difficult battle?

All you have to do is make up the repair cost with loot.

Tadat.

In that sense it bounces off the ground again.

Then did they also feel the need to change their strategy?

“Lyranne Vivien casted level 4 black magic [Telegraph of Pain].”

The rain of fire stopped and instead a pitch-black fog rose and attacked me from all directions.

‘Looking at the effect it looks like that….’

If my prediction is correct this skill has no evasion effect other than enduring with anti-magic power.

That means…

‘It means you can’t avoid your opponent.’

The moment the fog clung to my body I quickly recited the command.

“The character casted [Attend Risk].”

This is the newly acquired gachabon active skill.

The effect is simple.

Instead of doubling the amount of damage received while casting the amount of damage reflected through [Probabilistic Retaliation] also increases.

but….

“The abilities inherent in the skill are unlocked by the power of the Transcendence.”

When linked with [Transcendence] interesting effects are added.

“The damage immunity effect from [Stochastic Retaliation] disappears but the activation probability is fixed at 100%.”

The name is Confirmed Gacha.

Huuuuung-!

As soon as the skill was activated the black fog that stuck to my skin began to harden.

This is the effect of [Monument of Pain].

Temporary restrictions on movement.

and….

Push!

An attack that cannot be avoided.

“Waaaaaaaa!”

It’s so stinging it’s killing me.

Kwazijic-!

After holding on for about 2 seconds the hardened fog broke apart like porcelain and fell to the floor.

The inner surface was full of sharp protruding thorns.

Hey this isn’t a medieval torture device.

Still I’m glad I’m not the only one who suffers?

“General luck.”

After the hit judgment was completed [probabilistic retaliation] was activated.

Druk Druk.

A skeleton rises up next to me making bone joint sounds.

There was no exciting sound which may have been considered a huge success.

but….

“Reflects 30% of the damage received to the enemy.”

30% not 15%.

In addition the amount of damage I received has doubled so I can effectively return four times the normal reflex damage.

Well actually that’s a bit unfair from my perspective but…

“Uh huh…?!”

The opponent is a wizard who is synonymous with a paper body right?

It would be right to take this exchange cost into account.

“What is this…!”

As soon as the skeleton stretched out its hand into the sky pitch black fog covered the body of the witch on the broomstick.

and….

Push!

An eerie sound echoed all the way down here.

“Ah ah ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

I like your voice too.

Is that why she was the Screaming Witch?

Tadat.

She resumed her movement once again leading her body as large and small holes appeared all over her body.

Because it is a magic that deals guaranteed damage the damage is doubled but the wound is not as deep as expected.

The pain was really bad.

‘Maybe that’s why it doesn’t look like that person died either.’

Vivian who was falling while screaming as soon as the magic was released came to her senses and barely escaped the fall with a floating spell.

‘Looking at it the wound wasn’t that deep…’

Even if it was only 30% damage I thought the magician would have had a good hit.

‘Did you reduce the damage to some extent in that short moment with something like a mana shield?’

It may be a bit disappointing but…

“Off….”

Still the goal is achieved.

Seeing that she is still flexing her body and twisting her body she probably won’t have the energy or spirit to pour out magic on me for the time being.

It was a car that solved the warlock and quickly closed the distance to the rear.

[Grrrrrr-!]

Another corpse that the corpse collector pulled out of subspace blocks my path.

The number is seven.

Maybe they brought out tanking undead for the purpose of stopping me but they are big enough to tell large monsters to go away.

If you can raise your neck like this during [Giantification]…

‘Is it about 7m?’

I once again think that it would have been easier if [Leap] had been available but there were no major problems.

Was I just a tank?

The problem is that the wall is blocking the way?

There is no need to go around in circles.

“The character casted [Swing].”

All you have to do is remove that wall.

「The hitting range increases by 3 times.」

He hit the top of the head of a 7m tall corpse giant with a hammer that was elongated like a female baton.

It seemed like an undead for tanks but that was enough.

After all the coefficient of [Swing] is a strength value.

However the power increases by 500% due to the Demon Crusher effect. Even though it was a slam it penetrated up to 50% of the armor…

Kwakwaaaaaaaaaaaa!

How can a summoned beast withstand this?

Pishuuuuk-!

The corpse giant was reduced to a piece of rotten meat by a single hammer blow and blood poured out like a large fountain.

Huh isn’t this guy a bit poisonous?

“The character has been poisoned.”

“Poison resistance is over 100.”

“The addiction level has been adjusted to ‘low’.”

The poison penetrates the skin and into the inside causing pain.

But it’s not enough to stop.

This is especially true when the target is right in front of you.

‘It’s finally here.’

I quickly passed by the empty seat of the corpse giant with his ink-covered body and stared straight ahead.

The distance from the target is about 30m.

but….

‘Why is this guy standing in front like this?’

Did he come all this way in person to summon a corpse giant?

You can see the corpse collector from about 5 meters away.

Even at first glance he looks very embarrassed…

It would be rude to just pass this by.

“The character casted [Swing].”

「The hitting range increases by 3 times.」

Without looking any further I slammed the hammer down on the guy.

Instead of avoiding it chose to defend.

He uses a skill that I haven’t seen in a long time.

“Abed Nekrapetto casted [Bone Armor].”

In the past I had to hit it several times to break it.

How about this time?

The results were soon known.

Kwazijic-!

The shell surrounding the caster’s body was peeled off with just one blow of a hammer exposing the inner skin.

and….

“Abed Nekrapetto casted [Fleeting Immortality].”

In an instant its body is engulfed in flames and turns into bones.

A top-class invincibility device that converts mental and ability values ​​to physical values ​​with a grade 3 essence and makes you immune to damage for 1 minute.

‘I didn’t know you could take out an invincible weapon with one hit.’

Since it exploded there was no reason to waste effort on something so I grabbed one of its arms and threw it far away.

and….

Tadat-!

I jumped high as if I was taking a [leap].

I could see the stakes he had planted around the area shooting out various abilities like turrets in a defense game.

Grade 4 transformation skill [Noble Idol].

The effect of the lighthouse keeper’s core skill is as follows.

You can change the abilities you possess by placing the totem on the ground. For example a single buff or curse can be transformed into a wide-ranging aura…

‘It seems like it was urgent.’

Seeing the totems spouting flames and shooting magic bullets it seems like they turned off support aura modes such as [Acceleration] and [Soul Regeneration] and quickly switched to attack mode.

“…a monster.”

Even though he saw me coming all the way here despite being beaten up he didn’t run away.

Actually it would be more dangerous to go outside the totem.

Soon he shouted in a desperate voice.

“…Come!”

Well I have no intention of going inside.

“The character casted [Eye of the Storm].”

“The abilities inherent in the skill are unlocked by the power of the Transcendence.”

At this point it seemed like we were within range so I used the grab technique.

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

A gust of wind blowing towards me.

and….

“Aaaahhh!”

The body of the guy caught in the gust of wind and flying away.

Normally you sound chic when you talk but now that you’re in a hurry you scream like that too.

Wow.

I grabbed the guy’s head in the air with my shield-covered hand. The guy struggled but calmed down just by applying pressure to his fingertips.

It will be like that a long time ago.

Cooung.

I soon landed on the floor looked down at him and spoke briefly.

“Rings.”

“…?”

“I hope it’s expensive.”

It was hard to get here.

***

Kwasik-!

I grabbed the guy by the hair and slammed my forehead into his face.

Not only was the angle not good for hitting him with a hammer but when I looked close I saw that he was also wearing a necklace.

If you hit it with a hammer everything will be crushed.

“….”

I was about to headbutt him once more but his body went limp.

is he dead? Or faint?

He wanted it to be the former so he just thrust it in twice more.

Kwasik Kwasik-!

Oh that’s gross. How do people’s eyes…

‘…Anyway that’s enough for him. ‘Well then what should we do?’

Now that the first goal has been achieved it’s time to think about it again.

‘I think I’ve captured the lighthouse keeper and if we fight 4:3 I think we can kill the rest…’

Should I come back like this and use teleportation?

Or do you fight and stop them?

The worries did not last long.

Cooung cooung-!

Even at this moment the corpse giants were closing the distance towards me.

‘Okay let’s leave for now.’

On the way here I was stabbed countless times fell victim to magic and was poisoned.

Such problems can be overcome with mental strength.

but….

‘The MP is too easygoing.’

In order to deal with the Aurors I maintained [Iron Fortress] and now even used [Giantization].

Where is that?

He fired wildly linking various skills up to [Transcendence].

If MP runs out it will become difficult for Aurors to block and protecting colleagues from Blood Knights will become more difficult.

‘It would be a big problem if reinforcements came there again.’

After making a decision I ran back the way I came holding the loot in one hand.

But what happened?

‘Why doesn’t anyone attack me?’

The corpse giant that seemed to be rushing towards me lined up on one side like a wall as if to defend itself and no magic flew at me.

“…Necrapetto! What on earth are you doing! Without stopping! “You’re not going to die anyway!”

Seeing the shouting it looks like they’ve finally come to their senses…

Why?

I soon found out why.

An undead who looked relatively fine shouted on behalf of the corpse collector who was in a state of bone.

[If you want to stop it wouldn’t Vivien do it? It looks like the magic works well!]

“what…? No didn’t you see it earlier? “Repelling magic!”

Now that I see it they’ve all experienced it at least once so they can’t be hasty in touching me.

Well there won’t be any information about me.

I guess he didn’t want to be caught by me like the lighthouse keeper and have his head exploded.

It was a time when I was running like I was passing through an empty plain.

“What are you? Are you trying to attack me?”

A blood knight with one-armed mode activated blocked my path and asked a question.

“…name.”

huh?

“What’s your name?”

I was wondering what I was going to do but the only thing I asked was your name?

There was only one thing I had to say.

“If you’re going to attack me if you’re going to attack me get out of there. “Now I have to go back and eat.”

“….”

“Do you have honey in your mouth?”

As he said that and started running forward the Blood Knight moved his body to the side.

“…You’ll find out soon anyway.”

Surprisingly the Blood Knight let me go without even stabbing me in the back.

It seemed like he had learned something from his helplessness earlier.

Well how can I stop you from ignoring me and running even if you cut me with a knife?

Ta-da-da-da-da.

I soon made a final spurt and soon arrived at my destination.

The magic circle drawn on the floor was emitting light as if it could be used at any moment.

However the wizard was in a dazed and frozen state.

“What are you going to do instead of leaving?”

As I urged Raven raised her head and looked at me.

For some reason my eyes were shaking violently.

what?

Feeling doubt I looked around and saw that Erwen and Amelia had similar expressions.

“….”

“….”

“….”

I came back with some loot.

As if looking at a monster.
