Possessed in a Game That Is Full of Mods chapter 9

Knight entrance test - 4

Knight entrance test – 4

Brightest Darkness 4’s combat system is largely divided into two series.

Dodge and Deflect, mostly used against humanoid enemies, and Block and Roll, mostly used against monstrous enemies. Finally, parrying, a special counter attack.

Of course, you can use dodge and deflect against monstrous enemies, and you can use defense and roll against humanoid enemies. It wasn’t even systematically enforced.

It was, after all, a matter of efficiency.

“As expected, Iris has eyes to see!”

For example, if you use a roll in front of a boss who uses a relentless combo pattern that lasts up to 13 consecutive hits like now, it was perfect to get hit and get stiff during the post delay of the roll and then get hacked and killed with the subsequent attack.

The double daggers covered in ice and the swords with red blades collided repeatedly, making a sharp metallic sound. My hands were tingling. Even more so than when he deflected the human butcher’s giant blunt weapon.

His arms were slender, as if they would break if struck, but his strength was immense.

After I deflected the last 13 attacks, he took a few steps back and immediately showed the next pattern. A posture where the body is lowered forward and the arms are crossed in front of the head.

‘Seven consecutive hits.’

After recalling what pattern it was, I prepared to counter it.

That was the 3rd and 6th attacks subtly mismatched, and if he was caught there and bounced back to the berth, battle fatigue exploded and his death was confirmed.

An ice road was laid behind Rize. The road made of ice seemed to be maintained for a while, but soon it exploded, scattering frost-colored grains. Fog made of frost hung in all directions.

Taking care not to enter the area covered with frost fog, I deflected the swinging twin daggers.

Right hand, left hand, right hand crossed again. And twice in the right hand and once in the left hand. Finally, draw a diagonal line with your right hand.

I bounced off everything until the last diagonal line, and Rize took advantage of the pause and attacked from my side. As the sword cut through his arm, it left a slight cut in its place, and a few drops of blood flowed out.

‘I thought it went in properly this time too.’

Even though the knife was driven into his bare forearm in a defenseless state, the only wound left was a slight cut. A cut so light that it only caused a few drops of blood to be shed.

I had hit quite a few attacks before, but all of them ended up with only light wounds. Perhaps the concept of HP in the game was applied in that way.

Rize glanced down at her forearms, which were covered with scratches, and shouted in a joyful voice.

“Yes, yes! It should be! If you’re a man, you have to be that strong, right? The more I look at you, the more I like it!”

Then he kicked the ground again and lunged at me. There was obvious pleasure in the look on his face as he looked at me. It wasn’t that I enjoyed the battle itself, it was interest and pleasure towards me.

It felt like nothing was wrong with my arm being cut. It was to be expected since he didn’t die the way he did in the game anyway.

The figure in front of me leaped into the air. Ice and frost gathered around his body. I grabbed the daggers in both hands in reverse and turned them so that the tips were facing down, preparing to strike down.

It is an unguardable attack.

I quickly widened the distance and rolled backwards. Quadd Deuk! I heard the eerie sound of an ice meteorite colliding with the ground nearby. Even though I rolled as soon as I saw it, was it risky?

‘If it was vanilla, I could have avoided it even on foot.’

Pointed ice picks sprouted in all directions around the spot where Rize landed. The tip was terribly sharp.

The person who actually made it broke the awl casually and walked out. Well, if he gets stabbed and injured by the ice he created, that would be a comedy in its own right.

The next attack followed immediately. Crossing arms once, swinging the dagger in the left hand from the lower right to the upper left once, and 4 consecutive strikes.

I deflected all of them and drew the sword up to my chest to counter the last attack. Rize pulled one arm back and leveled the dagger.

It was a stabbing attack that was impossible to guard with weapon defense.

To destroy it, it was one of three things: either bounce it off according to the timing of the attack, or avoid it with evasion or rolling, or raise a shield.

ㅡ Chaeyoung!

The method I chose was, of course, deflection.

The blue blade lengthened to the level of a fairly long sword due to the ice that grew from the sword body faced the bloody red blade of the sword.

My body couldn’t stand the recoil and I was pushed back. I barely stopped my legs as I planted the tip of my sword into the ground. Rize had a startled expression on her face, as if she hadn’t thought I’d even bounce this off.

“Wow, you blocked this? Where did Iris get such a great recruit?”

Taking advantage of that gap, he brushed off the frost clinging to his arms and lightly brushed his numb hands.

Since the sword has no ice resistance enchantment, no matter how perfectly it bounces, the ice gauge will continue to build up little by little. Whether or not it could be finished before then was the key.

It was said that Rize had quite a few minor scars on her body, but she couldn’t check her HP, so her stamina had to be calculated only by guesswork.

When I was speedrunning in the past, I memorized even the smallest details, but when I went back and focused on level 1 bare-handed runs rather than speedruns, I quickly forgot all of them.

“Didn’t you say that you can control your strength?”

“No, I was going to watch it too. I was going to watch it, but what should I do when you block it so well? So, I keep wondering how far I can go. Do Iris and Erica think so too?”

I glanced back at the two watching our Dalian from far away.

Just as Rize said, Iris was staring at us motionlessly with her arms crossed under her chest, and Erika was looking at us with excited eyes.

Whatever it was, it seemed to be true that neither of them had any intention of ending the sparring.

“Iris, if you do this, won’t the test pass? How long are you going to keep fighting?”

Just in case, I hinted at Iris. From my point of view, I have to go down to make it. It was good because I could skip Rize’s final pattern if it worked, and there was nothing to lose even if it didn’t work.

Even if it ended here anyway, I don’t think Rize or Erica would reject me.

Iris thought for a moment, then nodded slightly.

“The skills I have shown so far have proven my qualifications enough. In terms of the exam, there won’t be any problems if you finish it now. I’ll end it here if both of you want to. Does it matter though, Rize?”

“What? for a moment. You want to end here? I’m serious?”

“If I did this, I would have confirmed my skills enough. I told you to take the entrance exam, but I didn’t tell you to make a life-and-death decision.”

“No, how many skills I haven’t used yet! You have no romance, Iris?”

“Find romance elsewhere. This is not romance, it is an entrance exam.”

“profit… … Then just one! Just one more skill and I’ll pass! If I can’t hit even one newcomer after so many attacks, what’s the point of my face as the commander of the knights? And honestly, Iris, you’re curious to see how far the rookie can go. is not it? yes?”

“… … .”

Iris showed signs of pondering for a moment. From my point of view, it was absurd.

‘Does that excuse work? really?’

“… … do whatever you want.”

‘That works.’

Is this because common sense has changed, like the way we dress? why doesn’t that work

Whether or not I’m taken aback, Iris’s permission has also been dropped. In the end, I, who had to fight one more time, took my stance again.

Anyway, I just wrote one more technique and said it was over.

‘… … Wait a minute. A skill?’

Suddenly, a chill ran down my back. It felt very, very bad.

“Come on, newcomer! I’m a little sorry, but I have to raise the dignity of the knight commander!”

“I heard that you can adjust your strength, but what is that doing in the entrance exam? And what if I block all of that? Then it would be dignified, nabal, and nothing would be left!”

“Are you going to stop this? Our newcomer is daring! Well, okay! I’ll grant you a wish, if you stop this, rookie! It’s okay to be naughty! How about it, are you prepared for this?”

“I don’t need that, so I’d like you to stop!”

“Sorry, that’s impossible! Instead, really, anything is fine, so think carefully!”

Rize covered her double dagger with ice with a refreshing smile. White frost covered her body, and the air around her began to rapidly cool. As soon as I saw it, I sighed heavily.

‘It ended up like this. what was the name of that skill? Was it a frost storm attack?’

The frost storm attack was the final series of Rize boss battles added in the Dyaela mode.

The number of hits was 20 times, but the damage per shot was filthy high, and even the induction was crazy, so it was even equipped with a f*cking hit that could not be avoided by rolling.

Because of this, it was a crazy pattern that practically forced you to lift a great shield or deflect every single attack. If I didn’t have luck, I would bounce off a double attack, and then the ice broke in the middle and went hooked.

Besides, it’s really inexhaustibly vicious, it’s a pattern that’s only used twice in all boss battles, so I had to spend an incredibly long time researching it.

When Rize lightly swung her arm vertically, an ice road was laid between them. Now you have to focus. I erased all my thoughts, and focused my consciousness only on the dagger in my hand.

Leaving a blurry afterimage, Rize’s body jumped forward like an arrow.

‘First of all, from the first 4 consecutive attacks.’

The body rotated once in a counterclockwise direction, and in that state, two consecutive blows with rotation were fired. As soon as the sword and dagger collided, I felt a tingling sensation in my hand. I almost missed the sword.

But there was no time to be in pain. A storm of frost wrapped around the dagger. After deflecting the first two consecutive hits, he immediately drew the bloody sword to the front of his chest.

As soon as I raised my arm, a strong shock passed through my chest twice. The shocked body was pushed back. It was a speed that I could never have stopped if I had tried to stop it.

As if even that wasn’t enough, the surroundings were thick with frost and cold, and Rize’s body, which was at most an arm’s distance away, could be seen blurry.

In the game, there was still some visibility, but now it’s not like that. Honestly, even the outline of the dagger was blurry now.

I gave up on following with my eyes, and instead moved as my body remembered, not my head. Recalling the memory of using deflection with the right mouse click, he swung his arms as if riding a rhythm.

‘The next 8 consecutive hits.’

As soon as I thought that, I heard the sound of swords clashing against each other exactly 8 times, and my body was pushed back for a long time again. Rize jumped right in. There was no time to adjust one’s posture or catch one’s breath.

Frost clung to his arms and legs, making it difficult to even move. There was also a limit to forcibly moving the limbs. It felt like the ice would burst on the 19th or last attack.

‘I can’t stand it like this. I have to cancel the attack by hitting one in the middle.’

Just as I was thinking about that, the 16th attack flew in. I bounced it off and rolled my head. After this, if you deflect the 17th attack, you will have a chance to hit one for a very short time.

It’s an attack that needs to be timed really well, but if it succeeds, you can cancel the pattern by feeding the stiffness as it is. He made a decision and prepared to attack while facing the flying dagger.

Immediately after that, my body felt heavy.

My legs staggered as I felt something dragging my entire body down. Thanks to that, the tip of the knife stopped for a moment.

‘Battle fatigue… … !’

I straightened my suddenly heavy body. The serial attack hadn’t continued yet, so there was time. Right before I swung the bloody sword again, I saw Rize’s lips lifted.

I checked my posture. At first glance, the posture appears to be standing awkwardly. But I knew what that meant.

If you attack now, your sword will be parried and your counter will hit you right away.

Recognizing that fact, before I could forcibly twist the sword’s trajectory, someone intervened between me and Rize, leaving a blurry afterimage.

“stop!”
