Chapter 267 Part 1
Shishiku, Kyokuya, and Raibun devour the meat.
I’m glad that I was able to secure the Ravenous Dragon Meat in advance.
Let’s see.
Since we’re heading to the Wind Spirit Village anyways, let’s hunt Fighting Bulls and secure some meat.
There’s plenty of room in the “Item Box”.
It may be a detour, but there is plenty of time.
By the way, what’s the name of this area portal?
It looks like it’s the Nest of Dinosaurs.
Certainly, that makes sense considering the situation of the surroundings.
Heather’s MP bar can’t hold out anymore.
I’ll swap her for Ninetails.
My MP has been used up to about 40%.
Let’s recover it with a mana potion.
Hmm?
Ninetails is looking at the spoon that Heather was licking until just a minute ago.
And looking at me.
This time the spoon.
Hey.
No reward yet!
The lineup will be changed again for travel.
Volff, Zangetsu, Helix, Ninetail, Kyokuya.
The time is 1:30 pm.
Let’s strengthen with spells and set off immediately.
Where are we going?
North.
It’s too dangerous to go south or west.
If we go east, we’ll just go back, and above all, once we hit the Wind Spirit Village, our destination is to the North.
I want to prioritize movement, but will the dinosaurs on this map let us get away with it?
There is no choice but to proceed while checking the distribution with Call Monster.
Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus can be avoided.
However, Quetzalcoatlus couldn’t be avoided.
Even though their numbers are small.
It seems that their range of catching prey is wide.
A passive guy who’s quite far away flies in our direction.
But its speed of approach is unusual.
The speed Zangetsu is traversing the ground at is considerable but.
In the end, we were caught up to.
In that way, when I had fought about 6 of them, we properly got a drop.
It’s a magic stone.
Isn’t that a little lacking for its strength?
I wanted more materials if possible.
But【Disassembly】did its job properly, so it’s fine.
The time is 3:40 pm.
We’ve reached S3W2.
What’s the terrain?
It looks like simple plains.
What will we do now?
Hyper Elephant Lv.4
Demon Enemy Target Frenzied
Battle Position: Ground
Suddenly it’s this.
Its size seems to be comparable to that mammoth.
Then the standard procedure is fine, right?
I’ll stop its feet with Pitfall.
The real battle starts after.
Frenzied state, it’s odd!
Even though its lower body was in the hole, it hung on with only its front legs.
Well, we’ll hit it with a charge to destroy it’s stance, and drop its lower body to the bottom of the hole.
When compared with the time against the Mammoth, Pitfall’s scale seems to have become larger.
The target of comparison being similar is helpful.
However, its essence has not changed.
I’ll use it to entirely restrict its movements.
After that is damage.
Actually, strangely I’m not scared after having fought against a Tyrannosaurus.
Although this one’s bigger.
It’s easy to attack once it gets in the hole.
However, this elephant has a means of attack remaining.
It’s the trunk.
And with a slight shake of the head, its fangs turn into a terrifying weapon.
Well, as long as we just keep piling on attacks, I’m not scared.
In the end, it was so easy to kill it that it couldn’t be compared to the Tyrannosaurus.
Well, they’re like apples and oranges but.
More importantly, the item.
I wonder what that is.
【Material】Hyper Elephant’s Tusk Raw Material Quality C+ Rarity 5 Weight 8+
A Hyper Elephant’s tusk. It is very curved and difficult to process into something.
It has a rugged surface and is not glossy, making it unsuitable for crafts.
As expected.
The big thing doesn’t change either.
Not suitable for crafts, is it.
Will it sell?
I wonder if there are others.
What’s worrisome is the sky.
If the monster in the sky is easy to handle, we have the option of moving with the Fly spell.
Armor Bee Lv.4
Demon Enemy Target Active
Battle Position: In the Air, Ground
There was a dangerous one.
What’s dangerous you ask?
It must have been a monster at Couturier’s Class Change destination.
Remember.
Did he have any skills?
It’s poison.
No, they have that from the start.
Yes, it’s charge.
The number of monsters flying around at high speed is four.
They gather up and aim at me.
What unpleasant guys.
I managed to entangle two with Thorn Fence and stop their movements.
There are still two.
The way they fight seems to be similar to Couturier.
It’s all in straight lines.
Simple.
Still troublesome.
Sometimes my eyes can’t even keep up.
Despite their linear movement.
Of course, there is also a fast one on our side.
It’s Helix.
One of them was knocked down while being damaged by Helix, and Kyokuya finished it off.
The last one?
The ball of light emitted by Ninetails hit it directly and it hovered in the air.
A small marker overlaps its red marker.
It seems to be Confused.
It was easy to pierce the bee that had stopped moving with a lance.
Although I don’t think it’s a very good method.
The two bees caught by Thorn Fence that can’t move seem to have been killed by Volff and Kyokuya.
So these guys are in the sky.
It’s close.
I feel like I could change to an aerial movement focused line up and make it word.
I also feel like that’d be a hassle.
However, even if it’s not efficient let’s stick to the ground as is.
I mean there are probably other monsters on the ground.
I’m looking forward to hunting on the ground while getting items.
【Material】Armor Bee’s Pollen Pellet Raw Material Quality C- Rarity 3 Weight 0+
Ball of polled that the Armor Bee eats. Generally nourishment is high.
Not suitable for eating.
It can be used as bait for the queen bee and larvae, but it also seems to be their own food.
Certainly, if I look at this alone, my expectations will fall?
But there’s another favorite.
Isn’t there honey?
Stegosaurus Lv.4
Demon Enemy Target Active
Battle Position: Ground
Oh!
Are there still dinosaurs?
But this one is small.
Well, it’s much bigger than Zangetsu but.
There are three.
On their back, things like boards are lined up in two rows in a staggered manner.
There are four protrusions from the tip of the tail.
If I remember correctly this is a herbivorous dinosaur, right?
Even I know it.
It’s a famous dinosaur.
The thing I should look out for is the tail.
Do I have to find an opening?
It’s no good.
I can’t read the timing to strike.
Because the cooperation of the three is so wonderful.
It would be nice to use mobility like Volff and Kyokuya, but those kinds of moves are impossible for a horse like Zangetsu.
Although the number of blows is reduced, I’ll refrain from charges and poke at it with a lance while circling around.
And support with spells.
These monster’s movements are basically slow.
It’s a hassle because they’re collaborating to cover each other, but a spell should be fine.
I don’t use Pitfall because it would interfere with my attacks.
I’ll use Gravity Prison and Branch Bind to slow down their movements.
It’s a roundabout method, but I’ll without fail steadily build up damage while stopping their movement.
If I kill one of them, there will be a gap in their cooperation.
After I became able to use charges, it was quick to get rid of it.
Well, I guess that’s about it.
It took a while for their being grouped up, but if you think about one alone, it’s not that much of a threat.
Wait, that’s not right.
My standards are getting messed up again you know?
I can say that because no one took a blow from those tails.
It’d be too late after taking it.
Well, I purposefully avoided getting hit but.
I should stay cautious.
So, what dropped from this dinosaur?
It’s smoky quartz.
I don’t get it!
Well, I’ll take it easy.
Don’t turn away those who come.
I’ll fight against the monsters that attack without hesitation.
It’s a lot of work avoiding getting too pumped up.
After all, it seems that we’ll be late to reach the area portal.
Don’t forget your goal, okay?
《【Joust】Level Up! 》
《【Tree Magic】Level Up! 》
《Summon Monster『Kyokuya』Level Up! 》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat》
Is Kyokuya’s level up unexpectedly fast?
No, is there an influence on XP earned in area portal liberation battles?
Kyokuya’s AGI has already risen.
I’ll put the other in VIT.
Kyokuya Orthrus Lv1 → Lv2 (↑ 1)
DEX 13
VIT 34 (↑ 1)
INT 15
STR 19
VIT 19 (↑ 1)
STR 15
Skill:
Bite Dash Threaten Listen Sense Danger
Pursuit Predatory Fusion Breath Fire Attribute Dark Attribute
Should we swap out?
It would be okay to switch with Shishiku and Raibun, but I still want to prioritize movement.
Like this, is fine.
The S3W2 Area Portal will be near soon.
Shall I have them accompany me until that point?
The place that seems to be the area portal was really easy to understand.
It’s a castle.
It was an old castle.
Both the walls and the gate seem to have lost their functionality.
What’s inside?
It’s pretty open.
And I can see some tents.
Huh?
If I check the wide area map, this place appears to be the Castle of Tyranny.
In other words, this is the boss area.
Oi Oi.
Did another party come first?
There seems to be a decent number of tents.
Well, if it’s been cleared then there’s no point in sticking around.
The time is 5:50 pm.
It’s pretty early, but let’s have some food.
I recall Zangetsu and summon Bunraku.
Huh?
Ninetails remains on my head and doesn’t come down.
Hey, don’t wave your tail in my face!
Come on now.
Do you want honey that much?
I’ll give you half a spoonful of the honey for cooking.
Put up with that okay?
Ninetails quickly moved from his head to my hand holding the spoon and immediately began licking honey.
Oh my.
What an easy-to-understand guy.
Ninetails wouldn’t get off my arm, so I left them alone.
Well whatever.
In the meantime, I was looking at the data sent in the system info.
The number of players is?
It’s increasing.
It’s likely to reach 100,000 people soon.
But there’s still more to go.
I don’t feel like the number of players is increasing as far as I predict.
Isn’t it okay to increase more?
And what about the group of Summoners who have class changed?
Oh, it seems that it’s nicely increasing.
Even so there aren’t 20 people yet.
However, there is a noteworthy point.
It’s a necromancer.
There is one person.
Who might that be?
Then next.
Try sorting by Racial Level.
There seems to be one Level 28.
Next is Level 21.
Huh?
Is it possible, that I’ve been rushing too much?
I was just fighting and capturing without worrying about it.
With Ninetail requesting seconds on my head, I finish eating.
What destination should we head for next?
Well, it’s going to the west.
The choices are good, they are.
The problem is that I haven’t hunted at night on this map.
And that I have to go by foot.
Move with the Fly spell at night?
It’s too dangerous.
As expected there’s no way.
By the way, Ninetail.
Making that spoiled voice.
No refills.
If you throw too much of a tantrum I won’t take you along you know??
What should we do after the meal?
After leaving the Castle of Tyranny Area Portal, we’ll head west.
Yes, the goal is the S3W3 map.
The current time is 6:20 pm.
We’re on foot, and considering the battles, is it reasonable for us to reach the boundary with the next map today?
That’s right.
Let’s go with that goal.
I’ll change the lineup.
Volff, Obsidian, Senki, Ninetails, Raibun.
Well, my legs are the slowest.
Using Physical Enchant: Wind and even True Practiced Spirit I managed to keep up with Senki.
The others are more mobile than Senki.
Well, I also run a little but.
Hopefully there are no nasty monsters in the night sky.
Bee-type Summon Monsters are active during the day, but I don’t think they’re well adapted to nighttime.
There is a high possibility that another monster will appear.
No, is it certain?
When I checked the surroundings with Call Monster, the situation completely changed.
Gone.
All of the monsters I encountered in the daytime are gone.
There should have been a decent number.
If there’s anything it’s Stegosauruses, but those are all passive.
Contrarily there’s something else.
