Get Runes – 3
The damage calculation formula for the falling attack was simple.
Inflicts damage equal to a certain amount of the enemy’s maximum HP in proportion to the distance away, and additionally increases the damage of the weapon held in that state.
In other words, the higher the character falls, the stronger the weapon’s one-hit damage, the more damage can be dealt with a falling attack.
Besides, if it was possible to kill the enemy with the damage of the fall attack, he could chew the fall damage.
If the enemy could not be killed, the character landed on the ground and attacked, so there were times when the character himself suffered damage and even died.
However, if the target dies, the character takes a special motion according to the weapon group, kills the enemy, and lands safely on the ground.
No matter how high you fall. Rather, it can be said that it is better to fall from a high place because the damage proportional to physical strength increases.
The situation I’m in right now was like that.
Dozens of rubbish mobs swarmed beneath this pit, allowing the player to land without damage by killing enemies with a falling attack no matter where they fell.
Thanks to that, I had to see dozens of centipedes the size of a human being gathered together and wriggling.
‘great. It’s right underneath.’
After confirming that the mid-boss was in the place where I would fall, I changed my weapon so that the tip of the sword was facing down.
A monster that looked like several centipedes united, and was several times larger than the others, raised its head after hearing the roar from above.
Immediately after that, I fell on top of it.
“ㅡ!!!!!”
I crushed both of his shoulders and stabbed my sword hard into what I thought was his head.
As expected, there was no shock at all when landing. Instead, the upper part of the shoulder took the impact and sat down. My foot dug into the shell.
The bloody blade of the sword sank into his face. I grabbed the handle from the side and from below, and pushed hard into it. All but the top of the sword was buried.
ㅡ Kwajik! Kwajijik!
While I was dealing with the mid-boss with a falling attack, a belatedly fallen rock shard mercilessly crushed the centipedes lingering in the puddle. The sound of shells being smashed could be heard everywhere.
The rocks will take care of the trash on the side where the player doesn’t fall. Thanks to that, I didn’t have to beat them one by one.
“… … .”
The middle boss was also in the same situation. It trembled with many of its legs terribly, then pulled them all the way down the middle. It was a sign that life was over.
The body was greatly shaken. I pulled the sword from my head, spinning around in the air and landing on the floor. Even though I had never done it before, it was very natural.
The guy landed in a puddle and created a splash. A disgustingly colored liquid spread slowly around it. He frowned and turned his head.
‘It’s over here.’
I looked around. All the centipedes that had been swarming around here had been hit and flattened by rocks that had fallen from the ceiling.
Originally, this was a tricky section where you had to land by landing on one of the junk mobs scattered around and deal with the mid-boss and six or seven junk mobs at the same time.
However, users found a small possibility here and found a place where they could feed the falling attack to the mid-boss. Even in the new mode, this hasn’t changed much.
The height of the fall is enormous, so even the mid-boss, whose HP is dozens of times higher than that of an ordinary enemy, gets a guaranteed one-kill, and all other miscellaneous mobs die from being crushed by falling rocks.
There was no reason not to use this method.
‘I wonder if there is an item dropped.’
I snooped near the corpses of centipedes flattened by rocks. I was wondering if there was a drum item. But there was nothing to see except pools of blood and filthy bits of flesh.
I honestly doubted whether I should call this a pity or a relief. There was no inventory anyway, and there was no status window, so even if an item was dropped, there was no way to carry it.
In the game, if you just press the E key to learn, the items will be stacked up in your inventory by type, and there is no particular limit on the number.
But not here.
The spear of the headless armored cavalryman, which I could easily acquire and check in the inventory if it was a game right now, I had to whimper and carry it to my horse and tie it to the saddle.
Even though I was in the Knights, I picked up items that were treated as items just in case, but nothing happened.
‘I don’t know how to farm reinforcement materials later.’
I threw away the reality anyway, shouldn’t it have just been included in the inventory as well?
ㅡKurrureurreung!
I could hear the cave vibrating in the distance. When I felt the vibration, I instinctively became irritated. It was a sign that the time to face the boss of this dungeon was gradually approaching.
‘It’s a f*cking rock centipede.’
Just thinking about it made my teeth tremble. If it wasn’t for the essential boss you must defeat to get the rune, I would have skipped it at all costs.
To sum up this dungeon’s boss, the ‘rock centipede’, in one sentence, it could just be a dirty boss.
There were no likes or dislikes except for the newbies who had just started Breeze 4 and came here for the first time. Because there was not a single person with a good name and it was full of dislikes.
It was a structure that could not come out even if it was just a little bit. In the community, the evaluation that the boss itself was made wrong was overwhelming.
If a remake of Brunet 4 comes out in about 30 years later, it is said that the rock centipede will be deleted.
The reasons were varied, but the biggest problems were three.
no fun.
Takes a long time.
Dirty pattern.
‘In fact, the first reason is the most overwhelming.’
Even if it takes a long time to catch it, people will understand if it is fun. Even though the final boss of Brunet 4 has up to 4 phases just like the rock centipede, I could see it from hearing praises.
Still, I can’t just hold on to it and move on. I made up my mind and entered the path that was open in the wall on one side of the puddle.
The road was incredibly wide. I wondered if 6-7 people could stand side by side on the left and right, and they were almost twice as tall compared to my height.
However, the walls and floor were uneven. It seemed like it wouldn’t be a big deal to tear my skin if I fell wrong. I wondered if I was going to die even with that, a foolish thought.
‘It’s here.’
I must have walked for such a long time, but I stopped walking when I saw the unnatural holes in the walls, floor, and ceiling that anyone could see. this was the place
Now approach the hole and the first phase will begin. I calmed down the irritability that was already rising and walked slowly in front of him.
By the time I was almost there in front of it, the cave vibrated loudly and I heard the creaking of bedrock being eaten from all sides.
The sound got louder and louder, and the shaking got stronger. There was a creaking sound coming from the walls, the floor, and the ceiling.
‘Calmly.’
If you move recklessly in this situation, if you are unlucky, you will be hit by a rock centipede protruding from the hole and die instantly. It was best to just stay still and not move nearby.
ㅡQuaaang!
Soon after, a huge monster emerged from the nearest hole, shattering the nearby terrain.
The overall appearance was no different from an ordinary centipede, but the whole body was made of rocks. It doesn’t mean that the upper and the exoskeleton are hard as stone, but that the body itself is really rock.
It was an appearance that exactly suited the name ‘rock centipede’.
And it was incredibly large.
Each leg, which numbered well in the hundreds, was the same length as my height, and even though only part of the front part protruded from the hole, it was similar to the height of a decent multi-story house.
If you add the rest of the body, which is still not exposed in the hole, it is clear that the entire length of the body is probably the size of an apartment.
‘Seeing it in real life, it’s no joke.’
The body of a rock, the appearance of a centipede, and the size of a monster bigger than a building were looking down at me, so the feeling of intimidation was greater than I thought. This was the reason why newbies go crazy when they first meet him.
But that’s it. When I thought of the scuffle I would have to go through with this guy in the future, rather than fear or anxiety, I felt annoyed.
ㅡCoooung!
The body of the rock centipede sank to the floor. The whole cave rumbled. It began crawling toward me, crackling its lower jaws against each other.
Hundreds of stone legs scratched the floor and let out an endless, unpleasant sound. Every move like that was annoying.
I took a slow step back and retreated toward the wall. The rock centipede also slowly turned to follow me. Then, it gradually began to pick up speed.
A gigantic centipede made of rock came running at full speed, flapping hundreds of legs and twisting joints. It had the momentum to slam me into the wall and crush me.
The problem is, the speed of running at full speed is slightly faster than the player’s basic gait. There was nothing that I couldn’t catch the timing, and there was nothing like being caught up and dying.
‘… … now.’
I waited until the distance was further reduced, then rolled sideways and out of the line just before my head rammed me. The rock centipede couldn’t stop charging even when I was out of sight.
ㅡCoooung!
And then, driven by his own speed, he slammed into the wall. The entire cavern vibrated and crumbs of stone rained down from the ceiling.
The rock centipede twisted its entire body and emitted light. I stepped back a long way so as not to be hit by the glow.
He would die even if he was hit by stones scattered around him. Newbies were away and if you ask them why they die, nine out of ten will be stoned to death.
The rocky centipede, which twisted and went mad and scattered its surroundings, nervously bumped its lower jaw a few times before burrowing into the rock again. The body was so huge that it took a long time to disappear.
‘I’ll have to wait a while again.’
I slumped back in my seat. It takes about a minute to go in and out again anyway. According to the production company, the body is so big that you can’t change directions properly or something.
Now, if you repeat this action a total of 59 more times, it will be phase 4. It’s number 29 in vanilla, but it’s doubled because of the della mod.
The guys who made the Nya mod also ate a lot of cursing. It can’t reduce the number of gimmicks, so why increase them?
While repeating those 59 times, you have to wait 1 minute in between, and of course you have to carefully avoid even a flying stone in addition to the hundreds of legs that are f*cking shining.
I sat down and waited patiently for the rock centipede to come out again.
