Episode 121. Slimes
“Let’s start a 3-party deal from now on!”
Priest’s first wide-area skill, Prominence Wave.
The waves of crimson flames that raged behind him swallowed the whole area in an instant, but we were able to endure it without too much difficulty.
‘Isn’t the monster eating buff bad?’
At one time, I was worried about how to eat monster meat, but now that I think about it, I think I’ve learned a valuable skill that I really shouldn’t have had.
I came to use the fire resistance increase effect very usefully.
‘I don’t know where to use the Orc Transformation yet…’
Where the hell would you use to transform with random probability?
It’s just that, if you’re lucky enough to be on the brink of death and survive at least once, it’s a good thing.
‘Anyway, having an alchemist I know is really comfortable.’
I want to boast that it’s all thanks to my cooking, but I can’t ignore the effect of the Advanced Fire Resistance Potion that Michael gave to everyone.
With the two effects added, the resistance value increased by nearly 100 points, and thanks to that, the difficulty of this raid might have been 30% easier.
‘Of course, the huge amount of stamina that a la carte increases, and the HP increase option also plays a part.’
Kwaguawang!
Tremendous firepower explodes right in front of your eyes.
Hairy brother and the guys in the party are shooting arrows and magic, and the dealers in our party are also diligently dealing.
For now, I have to play an auxiliary role, so I’m looking at the situation on the battlefield from a little distance.
The first phase of the priest raid.
Burning Meadow.
‘Shall we take a look around now?’
At this level, Lemon drew enough aggro.
No matter how powerful the firepower of the party that enters and exits the Abyss, it will not be able to steal the boss’s attention without a separate provocation skill.
“Please start attacking with the 2nd party from now on!”
What is the secret they are hiding?
Surely you wouldn’t deliberately hide it to avoid leaking information?
A bizarre combination of one main healer and the other 5 tamers.
Did you get a special item?
Or have I learned a great buff similar to my cooking?
‘Or else…!?’
Hearing my voice, the five tamers, including Everett Lowell, activated their skills at once.
Summon monsters.
Due to the skill of the priest, five colorful magic circles were simultaneously drawn on the scorched ground.
Before long, a monster appeared with a splendid production, no matter how you look at it.
Those were all the same monsters.
‘I don’t think anyone is arguing that it’s not the Angelic Slime Guild…’
All five of them were slimes.
No, it wasn’t about five.
Each of the three summoned one slime, while the other two summoned a swarm of dozens of slimes.
“Crazy…”
The slimes headed forward in unison.
The target is, of course, the high orc priest.
‘What is it?’
I have never seen slimes of that type in this game.
But to think that you will meet not just one slime, but three kinds of slime at once.
‘Is it the influence of that man?’
That guild was originally founded by a group of Everett Lowell’s followers.
He could have tamed the slime by imitating the guild master.
‘Is it that useful? Those soft slimes?’
What Everett Lowell summoned was about three times the size of a human, and it was translucent like fruit jelly, and whenever light was reflected, the surface took on a five-color light.
What the other two summoned was exactly the same shape, but it was huge.
Not to mention the High Orc Priest, he could have swallowed an entire house whole.
‘But the pink is a bit…’
In particular, it was very irritating that both of them were pink.
Finally, the two groups of slimes that were summoned in groups were each a dark rust color on one side and a deep purple color on the other.
It wasn’t a clean color either, but a very dark, dangerous color that seemed like it would smell like poison no matter how you look at it.
‘There are many different types, but no matter how you look at them, they don’t seem like normal guys.’
It seems that the genre of the game has changed somehow, but no matter how you look at it, it was clear that they were the least named monsters.
My guess is that a normal monster wouldn’t have been designed in such a peculiar way.
‘I thought even a common angel winged slime would pop out, but it wasn’t.’
I decided to carefully observe the battles of the slimes that had approached the raid boss before I knew it.
‘Couldn’t a little unusual slime be the means they were talking about?’
When it comes to something unique, our Rin is the best.
Where is that?
It’s strong, but how strong is it?
“Wow!”
Mumu, who was swinging his greatsword at the priest’s huge back and buttocks, stepped aside in surprise.
“Mumu! Those slimes are on the same side!”
“Oh, I know! I was just a little surprised…”
The boss still had his eyes fixed on Lemon.
Huge fireballs created in succession from the end of the wand are reaching Remon non-stop.
‘Lemon is holding up well as expected…’
Money was put into attributes that could be useful in this raid, such as the iron wall attribute and the defense increase attribute.
Paying off debt is important, but the survival of our children is the top priority.
The reimbursement was slightly delayed.
And with that money, I invested a lot in the characteristics of lemons and children.
Right now, the results are coming out very well.
‘Excellent guys.’
The problem is those slimes.
Since it’s not just a hindrance to the battle, he must have proudly summoned Everett’s gang.
‘Please show me first.’
Dozens of slimes, which approached the priest first, stopped side by side toward him.
‘What are you trying to do?’
It was then.
From noble mtl dot com
Those who looked like a clump of green algae latte wriggled together, then all at once began to vomit vicious poison at the priest.
The sticky, unidentified liquid adhered here and there to the priest’s body.
Chiiik-
Part of the ragged robe the boss was wearing was completely melting away, emitting acrid smoke.
‘Oh, is it poison as well?’
Not only the body of the priest, but also the surrounding land was stained with poison.
Enraged by this, the priest twisted his huge body and ran his back with one arm.
Following its trajectory, a wall of flames several meters high was created on the ground.
The poison zone created on the floor was completely charred by the flames.
‘Hmm…’
Those slimes seemed to have nothing to complain about.
The skin of Priestess Galutea had already begun to melt here and there, and although originally blue was an oak, the priest’s complexion looked unmistakably poisoned.
‘I can’t ignore the cumulative poison damage that ignores defense… But.’
Originally, the biggest advantage of the slime tribe is their body composition.
Virtually liquid form.
In short, it has tremendous resistance to physical attacks.
There may be slight differences from game to game, but this is a characteristic of the guys that almost never changes.
‘The problem is this. Priests are magic-specialized monsters.’
Slime has as many weaknesses as its strengths.
At least in this game.
‘I’m filthy vulnerable to magic. Especially on fire…’
Just now, the boss’s light attack made the poison zone useless in an instant.
‘I don’t know what their level or stamina is, but how long can I last?’
Should I say just in time?
At this timing, the boss prepared the second wide-area magic.
[Caution!! High Orc Priestess Galutea has cast the skill ‘Burning Barrier’.]
A semi-transparent protective film was created to cover the body of the giant priest.
“Stop the deal! Stop the deal!”
[High Orc priestess Galutea is casting skill ‘Flame Nova’]
At the end of the staff he held high in the sky, a red haze and tremendous fire energy began to gather.
We could only watch.
The completion of his magic.
If you attack now that the barrier is created, it will only strengthen the monster’s fire power amplification buff.
“Mumu! Lin! Dodge behind the lemon shield!”
“Yes!”
“Ooh!”
At the same time as specifying the action, I also moved right in front of the place where Melissa, Rachel, and Michael were and took out my shield.
“Lemon! Break the chain!”
“Yes!”
Flame Nova is a very powerful magic when defeated by a boss at close range.
If you are attacked with the Sacrifice chain connected, there is a high chance that Lemon will not be able to withstand it no matter how high his physical strength is.
For nothing, I can’t take such an adventure.
Fortunately, the 2nd and 3rd parties were running in the opposite direction as we said before.
‘Because this magic isn’t very dangerous if it’s far from the boss.’
I hurriedly turned the protection barrier on Lemon, Mumu, and Rin, who were closest to the boss, and checked the summoned slimes.
‘Fortunately, the attack stopped…’
They don’t run away after their owner and keep their place.
Even sticking closer to the boss than Lemon.
‘Is it really possible to endure?’
And finally, the boss’s magic was completed.
Quaang!
The swollen fireball, like a small sun, exploded spewing flames in all directions.
“Ugh…”
Unbearably hot heat ran through my whole body for a long time.
‘Can I summon those slimes right away?’
Even in the midst of this, the only thing in my head was the slime summoned by others.
‘It has no choice but to be. The slimes didn’t eat my food, nor did they drink the fire resistance potion…’
* * *
“Hyung, isn’t that… Taemin hyung?”
“……”
“Brother! Can’t you hear me?”
“Listen.”
“Isn’t that Taemin hyung?”
“……”
“I think Taemin hyung is the raid leader? Hyung! Myungsik hyung!”
“Be quiet. You can hear everything.”
In the field of view of the two who climbed atop a large rock, they saw a group of people attacking the World Boss.
And the all-too-familiar figure standing at the center of it.
