Chapter 259 Part 1
Let’s devote the afternoon time to horseback combat.
The opponents are, of course, the Sphinx and Spinks.
After evening, I’ll spend the night battling at the underground altar.
There are no other players, so let’s go all out.
Well then.
Let’s do it.
《【Joust】Level Up! 》
《【Tree Magic】Level Up! 》
《You have acquired the【Tree Magic】spell【Detoxification】! 》
《【Horsemanship】Level Up! 》
How many battles was it?
My strategy against this pair was steadily getting standardized.
Suppress their movement with Gravity Prison and Branch Bind and one-sidedly beat them down.
I can’t completely block their movement, but it’s enough.
With our mobility we can overwhelm them.
The important thing is to keep them pinned down.
And the wolf army of Volff, Oma, and Kyokuya.
The monsters bear their tail stingers and attack, but they don’t hit at all.
I don’t have to worry.
Of course, my assault from atop Zangetsu is also going well.
Taihaku, who still hasn’t had a Class Change, supported Zangetsu from atop his head.
Easy win?
No, if I messed up the plan the situation would instantly turn south.
It’s important to keep that in mind.
And the battle results are splendid.
When I killed the level 6 pair, a lot of things went up.
There haven’t been any Ancient Stone Pillars, but I got 2 needles.
And a spell.
Detoxification?
I guess it’s a spell that detoxifies.
It seems to detoxify regardless of whether it’s poison from magic, special abilities, or items.
It’s not all-powerful, but I’m to avoid getting debuffs.
I guess the cure has lost its value, huh.
Well, it can’t hurt to have some insurance.
That aside.
It’s about time to think about it.
Sphinx and Spinks.
They’re level 6.
Above that is level 7.
What’s next?
Just as Dragon Puppy has become a Lesser Dragon, Sphinx and Spinks will also turn into a Elder forms, right?.
Yeah, I’m sure they will.
For that reason, I want Taihaku to Class Change as soon as possible.
I would be anxious if he hadn’t Class Changed.
Oma can use an ability like Dimension Mirror, but you can’t be too careful.
I am dealing with two of them after all.
《【Appraise】Level Up! 》
《【Disassembly】Level Up! 》
The Lion Sage’s Needles are dropping nicely.
By the way,【Appraise】also leveled up.
Is farming here perfect?
Although I would like for【Disassembly】to work in other places.
This is also a problem.
《Monster Summon 『Taihaku』Level Up! 》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》
The time is 3:40 pm.
Taihaku’s MP bar is below half.
He’s been using it generously, but even so consumption should be limited since he’s riding on Zangetsu.
It’s not the greatest situation, but what should I do?
I guess I’ll take care of the stat upgrade first.
The stat that already rose is AGI.
I’ll use the other point on STR.
Taihaku Imp Lv6 → Lv7 (↑1)
DEX 5
AGI 21 (↑ 1)
INT 23
STR 5 (↑1)
VIT 5
SPI 26
Skills:
Flight Levitation Echolocation Magic Resistance [Medium] MP Recovery [Small]
Light Attribute Dark Attribute Water Attribute
Then.
Swap out.
Let’s recall Taihaku and summon Aramid.
All you have to do is poison the slow Sphinx and Spinks.
I think that the amount of damage caused by poison will stack up even during just a few minutes of battle time.
My expectations are high.
Well, the Lion Sage’s Lance that I use might also have poison, but I want to leave that for when I’m serious.
《【Balance】Level Up! 》
《Summon Monster 『Zangetsu』Level Up! 》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》
It was dangerous.
What was?
The Sphinx and Spinks.
Level 7.
I guess it’s about time I get used to it.
Zangetsu’s stat that already went up is STR
I’ll put the other in VIT
Zangetsu White Horse Lv8 → Lv9 (↑ 1)
DEX 8
AGI 28
INT 8
STR 29 (↑ 1)
VIT 29 (↑ 1)
SPI 8
Skills:
Trample Dash Endurance Run Wild Gallop Stampede Kick
Rider Recovery [Slight] Magic Resistance [Slight] Light Attribute
It’s 4:30 PM, huh?
Level 7 opponents are a little tough.
But let’s stick around a little longer.
I’d like to think they’ll stay at level 7 until the evening.
Some of me wants to see the class-changed Sphinx and Spinks.
Oh boy.
《【Seal Magic】Level Up! 》
《【Precise Manipulation】Level Up! 》
《Summon Monster 『Volff』Level Up! 》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》
Three consecutive battles with a level 7 pair.
It was tough, but you could say it was worth it.
It’s here.
Naturally, I’m pumped.
Will there be a class change?
Volff’s VIT stat has already risen.
I’ll specify STR as the other.
Volff Gray Wolf Lv11 → Lv12 (↑ 1)
DEX 13
AGI 33
INT 13
STR 23 (↑ 1)
VIT 26 (↑ 1)
SPI 13
Skills
Bite Dash Roar Divine Hearing Pursue Night Vision Conceal
《Summon Monster『Volff』has cleared the Class Change conditions》
《Please go to the Status Menu to access the Class Change options》
It’s here.
This is worth returning to the relay portal for.
But it’s fine here.
No one will come and the monsters won’t come out unless they’re challenged.
Then.
With fusion identification.
《The target is not an eligible Summon Monster for fusion.》
What can you change your class to?
Let’s check.
Class Change candidate:
Silver Wolf
That’s it.
There’s only one option.
The question is what happens with the Class Change.
Wolf Gray Wolf Lv12 → Silver Wolf Lv1 (New!)
DEX 14 (↑ 1)
AGI 36 (↑ 3)
INT 15 (↑ 2)
STR 23
VIT 26
SPI 15 (↑ 2)
Skill:
Bite Dash Roar Psychic (New!) Hide (New!) Pursue
Night Vision Conceal Self Regeneration [Slight] (New!) Magic Resistance [Slight] (New!)
【Silver Wolf】Summoned Monster Battle Position: Ground
A high-ranking species of wolf. Its means of attack is biting. Its fur is silver with a white underside.
Its physique is one size larger than Wolf, and it excels not only in combat ability but also in search ability.
They are sometimes the object of worship as a race of messengers of God.
《The target is not an eligible Summon Monster for fusion.》
A mysterious skill has appeared.
Psychic?
Well that’s fine.
There’s no fusion option.
Let’s think of it as normal evolution.
Even so, I am very happy about self-healing being among the newly acquired skills.
It feels like it’s been enhanced for combat.
He doesn’t have any attributes, but that’s fine.
You can think of him as a pure speed fighter in battle.
He will continue to be very helpful in exploration as before.
Did his appearance not change?
No, the gray fluff is a little longer and the texture is softer.
The color of the hair seems to be a lighter shade of gray.
The difference isn’t clear.
The major change is his eye color.
It’s silver.
I think it used to be pale yellow.
Does the silver name refer to the fur or the eyes?
Which one is it?
As I hold his cheeks between my hands and ruffle them, he squints his eyes in happiness.
Hm.
This kind of thing doesn’t seem to change.
It seems that Oma, who is in complete wolf form, and even Kyokuya are waiting for their turn to be stroked.
Hey.
Stop with those looks.
Well, petting them is nice.
Much better than being extorted for honey.
Let’s rub them without worrying about it.
Oops, I got off track.
Let’s see how things changed due to the class change.
I guess we’ll go with the same lineup.
Has anything changed?
It’s changed, right?
No, I know he’s faster, but I don’t know how the damage is.
It’s because I’m fighting in the vanguard.
Let’s save the video so that I can check out the battle later.
Is it okay to put checking off for later?
I recall Volff for now and summon Helix.
I’m not done yet.
Until the evening, you’ll stay as Sphinx and Spinks, right?
《Summon Monster『Aramid』Level Up! 》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》
The time is 6:10 pm.
There were only a few battles with Helix added.
Next time I’ll add Helix to fight from the morning.
It’s nice and easy to keep track of things with Helix’s aerial vantage point.
I can’t underestimate that.
AGI has already risen in Aramid’s stats.
I put the other in STR.
Aramid Viper Lv6 → Lv7 (↑ 1)
DEX 11
AGI 18 (↑ 1)
INT 11
STR 14 (↑ 1)
VIT 18
SPI 11
Skills:
Bite Wrap Scent Detection Heat detection Conceal Poison
It’s nice that Aramid is about to change class.
If I’m aiming for a Nue, I’d better raise a Tiger too.
There’s no guide.
That is truly frustrating.
Somehow, I have to fight a strong enemy and gain knowledge and experience?
I also want to train up 【Petrification Resistance】before I move on to the next part of the map.
That’s right.
As originally planned, let’s dive into the basement of the relay portal after dinner.
Of course, there are risks, but I would like to dare to overcome the risks here.
Can’t stay scared of the Lesser Basilisk forever.
My fights with the Sphinx and Spinks are over.
Let’s have dinner.
I recall Helix and summon Bunraku.
Let’s take a careful look at Volff’s battle.
This is.
Amazing, huh.
No, should I say it’s terrible?
Volff was quick to start with.
Oma is, of course, clearly faster than Kyokuya.
My eyes can’t keep up.
Confirmation?
I can’t do that!
The image is blurry and doesn’t show much.
Do I have to watch it live?
With difficulty, I manage to confirm the Sphinx taking attacks and losing HP.
It’s slight, but it seems that the number of attacks increased.
Let’s say that our battle power has improved as a result.
That it refines our old fighting style or something.
It’s something like that right?
Anyway.
It’s scary to see Oma fighting alongside Kyokuya!
A pack of wolves is scary even if there are only three.
Thanks.
