40 – 040 – Canoeing to the Jungle # 3
040 – When going to the jungle in a canoe #3
There is something called random difficulty for elite monsters in D&A.
There are 8 levels of difficulty in total.
1. Very easy.
2. Easy.
3. Normal.
4. Difficulties.
5. Very difficult.
6. Decoction.
7. Nightmare.
8. Hell.
Up to the 5th level, which is very difficult, there is no special name attached, but a title such as ‘burning’, ‘frozen’ or ‘shining’ according to the randomly assigned attribute.
However, from the 6th stage, appropriate modifiers are added.
Feels like “Master’s Mermaid – Maid Mermaid”.
If there is an elite monster with the name 「Nightmare Emperor Ant – Kukulkan」, it means that it is the second strongest monster entity on the hardest difficulty level.
He was sitting on something like a throne made of animal bones and leaves, looking down at me.
“Jim is always ready to take on a challenge.”
said the emperor ant.
It was said to be an emperor ant, but its appearance was no different from a human with two arms and two legs.
It was like seeing a battle suit or robot that was chosen for its cool design in that it was wearing a black and hard exoskeleton like armor.
that’s cool
“But before that, I want you to be polite to Jim, Kukulkan, the owner of this jungle. Everyone get down on your knees and show Jim an example.”
Paaa-!
As the emperor ant stood up, something like a strange wave shook the air.
A tingling sensation in the nape of my neck made my knees twitch.
“… My, my body, whatever it is.”
Victoria kneels on one knee on the floor.
At the same time, Enio, who was standing next to him, also said, “A spirit like a sura… .” He muttered and got down on one knee.
Only me and Nike were fine.
I was quite surprised that the weak-looking Nike was fine in the midst of this turmoil, even though the eccentric «Steel» was activated and nullified the strange sense of intimidation.
“Victor, that guy, is the owner of this jungle! I guess you could say I’m the master of the forest! There are masters like this in the deep forest, jungle, and mountains!”
Apparently, Nike seemed quite familiar with this situation.
Suddenly, it came to mind that there was a terrifying monster in Rashgard Forest, where Nike grew up.
But before thinking about it further, Emperor Ant laughed.
“Have you not succumbed to Jim’s coercion? They are strange children. It must be more than enough to be an opponent for Jim, the emperor.”
When the guy got up and moved his legs, the ants waiting around him moved in unison and created a staircase.
The guy who came that close was quite large.
Is your body the same size as mine?
“Originally, sparring with elite warriors would come first. It’s boring to keep still. Jim wants to test his newly acquired powers. Challenger, I will give you a chance to face me.”
Originally, when a queen ant or a female ant has to say an ambassador, all they say is zzuzu. It just looks like a big ant.
But this emperor ant was different.
They talk and look like humans.
First time seeing this guy.
The assigned elite difficulty level is 7.
If so, what are the appropriate stats for the original attack?
It won’t go over 300 anyway, will it?
Curiosity soars.
new monster.
New Achievement!
What technology will you use?
More than anything, being an emperor is cool.
But there was something I had to do before fighting him.
“Victoria, Enio. Calm down.”
“That, was it an abnormal status attack?”
“… Upset. I feel like throwing up.”
Victorica and Enio stumbled up from their seats.
He braces himself and finishes preparations for battle.
“Victorica, first of all, it’s a flash.”
“I will do it even if you don’t tell me!”
The tip of Victoria’s wand glowed.
At the same time, the lights exploded with a bang.
“It’s like the sun!”
The emperor ant stumbled, clutching its face with its hard rake-like hands, as if caught in the flash. Without missing the chance, Enio shouted.
“Thickening, 《Shadow Penetration》!”
When Enio hit the floor with both hands, the black shadow ran as fast as a snake.
Sssss-!
The shadow that stopped in front of the emperor ant protruded toward the ground like an awl and brushed against the ant’s hard armor.
Kkang-!
“what… !?”
Confused Enio.
It must be because the shadow piercing, which deals 75% damage in proportion to the basic attack factor, did not even scratch the Emperor’s shell.
he’s a strong guy
I have no choice but to draw out my sword to damage that guy.
sereung.
Pull Tyrbing again.
At the same time, I kicked my leg.
I narrowed the distance to below the guy’s waist in an instant and drew a trajectory of flashes from left to right.
“Cleave the light.”
We must defeat him while Victoria’s flash is still affecting him.
Crowd control skills such as Flash and Shadow Bind are less likely to succeed as they become more resistant to them at first.
Saeyoung-!
Tyrbing, a demonic sword that cuts through the air smoothly.
It cuts the guy’s body in two.

Quagga-.
However, I cut the side of the black guy, who cuts even the log like paper, and got stuck.
It felt more like a rock than an ant, no, more like a lump of iron. The sturdy-looking exoskeleton wasn’t foam, was it?
“… Aww!”
“But through the attack. It can be attacked well enough.”
The boy took a step back and backed away.
Purple blood dripping from the shattered exoskeleton.
The guy shook his head and said, as if he had completely escaped the effects of the flash.
“pain. How long have you been feeling it? !”
Soon after, the wings fluttered like a cloak on his back, and boo-woon rang loudly.
It seems to have gained momentum with the flapping of its wings, and it surges towards me and swings its claw-like forepaws wildly.
Kang, Ga Gang, Kang!
Viktor’s bizarre reflexes somehow prevented the attack, but it was clear that even one hit would result in a fatal wound.
Grasp-!
cried Enio as his claws tore through the thick palm tree.
“Victor-kun, I’ll help you! shadow-“
“Don’t disturb, bitch! It’s a great time! Legion!”
Winged ants flying from all directions at the emperor’s command.
ㅡ jjjjjjjjj.
– It’s a joke. Gigiz!
It’s a common pattern for boss monsters to summon smaller monsters.
Thanks to this, Enio and Victorica had to focus on dealing with the ants coming from all directions.
“Hey, these guys go away! Don’t bite my cane! Nasty bugs!”
“Victorica, I really didn’t want to say this, but let’s attack with pincers!”
“Prosecutor, help from the girls is no longer possible.”
“… … .”
“It is the grip of a burden that even trees are torn like paper. It’s a really great sword to block multiple attacks. But how many more times can you wield it? Heat? no five?”
He was a smart guy unlike an ant.
It seems that he noticed that his HP was being cut even while fully defending himself.
“Because of that sword, Jim will fall on his own even if he doesn’t fight. But that’s no fun. I’ll show you the secret weapon bestowed by the gods, the secret attack that made me reign as emperor.”
Woo woo woo-.
The wings of the emperor ant, which rose about 10 cm from its place, became more intense.
I don’t know what he’s trying to do, but usually after a big preparatory move like this comes an annihilator or an equivalent pattern.
In D&A, it gives you time to prepare or cancel a pattern for one to two turns.
This real Ludens is not a turn-based game, but a real-time reflection, but it is certain that it shows gaps no matter how many seconds it is.
It’s real from now on.
“There are five slashes that can be wielded forward. It will be difficult to defeat you within that time. But that is without doping.”
“Doping?”
Originally, it was the rule of the country to eat health recovery pills when blood ran out.
However, since you don’t know what pattern the monster you’ll meet for the first time will use, it’s better to boost its HP first.
So I took out a water bottle hanging from my waist.
Inside is a lukewarm stew.
Still, the effect is the same.
gulp,
Feeling a surge of energy in my body, I put the sword back into the sheath.
“What, what is that… !”
An emperor ant looking puzzled.
However, his demeanor soon regained his composure.
“I don’t know what you’re trying to do, but it’s too late!”
Boo-woong – The body of the guy who floated into the air falls towards me like a missile.
“Take it, Oh’s Bird Missile!”
… Ants with Bird Missiles?
I was embarrassed for a moment.
However, even if he had not panicked, he would not have been able to avoid the attack of the guy who slammed him to the ground in an instant.
“Pierce!”
aaah-!!!!

Quagga gag gag-!!!
A strong shock hit my body.
Could the earth where the asteroid collided hurt so much?
It’s literally breaking bones and shaking the brain.
But.
I endured it without groaning once.
Full HP 283 after doping.
Really great.
“after… , Sigh… . It hurts quite a bit.”
I don’t know the exact number, but I feel it sensuously and my remaining HP is about 75.
Fortunately, it doesn’t seem to have any effect on Enio or Victorica, who are fighting over there.
The emperor ant’s special move was not a wide area, but a single instant death pattern.
But I didn’t die instantly.
His body was heavy and his internal organs were injured, blood gushing out of his mouth, but he was still alive.
The ant seemed unable to accept that fact.
“A blow that can pierce even rocks… . The blow of a burden heavier than any other gigantic rock… !”
“It’s lighter, than a debt of 200 million.”
“What, what are you saying… ! This monster… ! It’s enough to feed them once more… !!!”
Boo Woo-.
The guy flapped his wings and looked like he was about to fly.
However, the reason he couldn’t escape to the sky was because strange roots were entwined under his feet.
“What is—!? What are these roots!”
At the struggling emperor ant, Nike shouted in rage.
“Victor’s enemy… !”
… no, i’m not dead
Wasn’t that what he wanted to hide about being a druid?
cried the ant emperor.
“A strange bitch… ! Wasn’t he a guy who couldn’t do anything… !”
There were many unexpected variables, but now it’s time to put an end to it.
“Nike, hold onto it.”
Now is the right time to hold Tyrbing and his physical strength is in tatters.
Tyrving has an additional ability that increases damage based on lost health.
I lost a total of 200 HP with the Bird Missile.
Victor’s bare-handed attack power 29.
Attack power added by Tyrbing 50.
Total 279.
If you multiply the 75% of the ‘light cutting’ coefficient of the arc light type 1 by the attack value of 279, the approximate damage will be around 209.
That’s enough damage to knock down quite a few episode bosses in one hit.
“One meal of arc light.”
“Let go! Jim is the emperor! Jim, Jim is the ruler of this jungle! Jim! Opportunity from the gods… ! Named Kukulkan who was gifted with abilities—”
“No, you are just an ant.”
“What… ?”
I expected a little bit because it was a newly added boss.
After all, is the level of difficulty a bit more difficult than Empress Ant?
One look was nice though.
