Chapter 283 Part 2
「Gravity Prison!」
Did the spell work?
Yes.
It seems like all the enchantments cast on me were dispelled in exchange.
Curse you exercising priest!
Not again!
And a knife comes flying from above.
And a ball?
Is that an iron ball?
Juggler, what are you throwing?
Well, from above even a rock would be a deadly enough weapon.
I was able to avoid the knife, but I got hit by the ball-like thing that the Juggler threw at me.
Did it hurt?
Of course it hurts.
For payback, I threw the Kukri sword and hit him.
He fell from his elevated Lesser Gryphon.
Was that too much for payback?
No, I think Zangetsu is worse for trampling him.
「Rider-Horse Union!」
I reuse the nullified Martial Art.
I followed the lesser gryphon that the Knife Thrower rides while redoing my spell enhancements.
It’s aiming for Irina.
But.
It also has its back to us.
I’m going to throw another Kukri sword.
I aimed for the Knife Thrower, but it missed.
But it did hit the Lesser Gryphon.
Is that for the best in the end?
All of the knives thrown at Irina seemed to miss.
Any attacks from the sky?
They don’t have a vanguard or rearguard.
Even if they intercept me on the ground, they’ll inevitably be on the defensive.
It took me quite a while to finish off the final Lesser Griffon.
The reason for that was obviously the Exorcising Priest.
Even after falling from the Lesser Griffon, he still struggled until the end.
It was also troublesome that the Lesser Gryphon he had ridden served as a commendable shield, but.
That was taken care of with a charge.
The Priest was immediately hit by an arrow and finished off by Helix.
Finally.
Lesser Gryphons aren’t so scary when they’re alone.
But these three guys were incredibly well coordinated.
The damage they dealt can’t be overlooked.
『First Majins of the day, huh』
「Yeah」
While collecting the Kukris, I went ahead and looted them.
One drop of gold ore.
It’s decent.
『I checked with Call Monster. Looks like there’s another group of 3』
『Already!』
「Let’s hurry」
Of course, we’re not running away.
It’s more like we’re actively hunting them.
We had Helix and the others go ahead to attack, but the Lesser Gryphons ignored that and came at us.
And there are Majins mounted on them.
A Dark Clown and a Juggler this time.
And an Exorcising Priest.
That troublesome jerk is here again.
And the Dark Crown is troublesome as well.
He can bounce back attacks.
Helix got hit pretty hard.
But just like Oma, he can’t keep bouncing off attacks forever.
If we manage to take him down, will the rest be easy?
Well, it is easy.
We can make it work with sheer numbers.
『We still have some distance to go, but there are quite a lot of them, aren’t there?』
「Let’s hide for a bit」
What we decided on was to use Invisible Blind.
Along with trees.
We passed by Lesser Gryphons and Majins several times.
There certainly are a lot of them.
You could say a bizarre amount.
But that’s not the only bizarre thing.
While hidden, we went over a hill and witnessed a horrible situation.
『What the hell?』
『A monster… army?』
「Looks like it」
There was a huge mass of monsters.
It can’t be anything but that.
All of them except for the Lesser Gryphons and the Majins are probably unknown monsters.
Since they don’t show up with Call Monster.
It’s a bit far away, but【Identify】worked on the biggest one.
Kim Kui Slave ???
Event Monster ??? ???
??? ???
It seems like the most dangerous.
It’s no wonder that I can’t see its details.
What does it look like?
A giant turtle.
Like a moving mountain.
Its imposing presence is undoubtedly the most dangerous of the army.
In comparison, the Lesser Gryphons look like tiny birds.
The huge carapace on its back looks like armor, with three rows of protrusions.
Almost like saws.
And giant legs.
They’re strange in comparison with the monsters in front of its claws.
How are we going to fight that thing?
And the neck and head extending from the carapace are also vicious.
Its shape resembles Gokame, but the fangs protruding from its mouth create a vicious atmosphere.
They look like stone pillars.
They’re tips are dull.
That’s what makes them feel so overpowering.
It moves slowly, and its steps are deathly slow.
Can I feel the vibrations all the way from over here?
How many are there?
Just one, huh.
But it’s still more than enough of a threat.
It’s like a moving castle.
And the Kim Kui Slave isn’t the only dangerous lookin one.
Slave Beast – Outer Path Turtlesnake
Event Monster ??? ???
??? ???
《 【Identify】 Level Up!》
It’s huge too.
If the Kimukui Slave is a moving castle, this guy is a moving fortress.
It definitely is a giant turtle.
And how come【Identify】levelled up even though I could only see the name!
On top of its shell, I can see a figure that looks like a Majin.
Unfortunately, 【Identify】doesn’t work, though.
He appears to be mounted on a Lesser Gryphon on the turtle’s back.
Does it fly away like from a helipad?
I feel like I’m going crazy.
It looks like there are five of these Slave Beasts.
And there seem to be several groups of monsters around them.
No matter how you look at it, it’s not normal.
There are also many Majin-like figures riding on various monsters.
It’s an army.
I agree with Irina.
『I took a screenshot!』
『I’ll record it on video as well』
The two of them immediately began to record this sight.
I keep a close watch of our surroundings.
I refresh Invisible Blind and use Sense Magic.
It’s not good.
The scale of that magical power is serious trouble.
The Kim Kui Slave seems to be of a different level.
And it seems like there are monsters with high magic.
「There are too many of them! Let’s take a detour」
『Agreed!』
『We can’t do anything ourselves against a force of that size』
The monster army continues moving.
The speed of their march is slow.
But, they’re heading east.
Being part of the event, I’m sure they’re heading to break through the Area boundary.
This time, we move north.
It’s because we wanted to slip by the army and make sure there.
Of course, I continue to use Invisible Blind.
If I didn’t, the Lesser Gryphons flying overhead would find us.
We can’t let our guard down.
Have we finally escaped the Lesser Gryphon’s net?
Right after I thought that, a monster attacked.
This is extremely troublesome too!
It seems that we’ve suddenly been trapped in a pit.
Volff barked in warning, but I didn’t get away in time.
Damn it!
How’s my HP?
The fall damage doesn’t seem to be high.
It’s pitch black.
And with only me and Zangetsu here, our forces are split in the bottom of the pit.
Who did this?
Looks like it’s this guy.
Great Mole Lv.2
Demon Enemy Target Active
Battle Position: Underground, Ground Dark Attribute Earth Attribute
A mole, right?
But this thing’s size is on Senki’s scale.
The claws on its front legs are thick and powerful.
This is bad.
Clearly, the demon has the terrain advantage.
So what do I do?
Drop the Lance on the spot.
I threw the Kukris one after another and got off Zangetsu.
I took the Tokkosho from my waist and deployed the blade.
I set it to Steam Magic.
The monster’s first attack grazed my head.
While it passed by, I just barely managed to get an attack in.
I feel resistance.
And yet, the monster’s HP didn’t fall that much.
Wow.
On the other hand, I lost nearly 20% of my HP.
Hey.
Am I in a tight spot?
But reinforcements are coming.
And fast.
Basically falling down the walls of the whole, the wolf army comes.
Of course, Volff and Oma.
Orthros, White Wolf, and Black Wolf follow.
And instead of saying hello, they used Threaten.
They howled, but…
「Gaah!」
「Goaaaahh!」
I understand that they’re trying to threaten a monster .
But you know what?
It echoes around the bottom of the pit!
My ears hurt!
But it was very effective.
For a moment, the monster stopped moving.
Orthros immediately bites the base of its front legs.
All around, rocks pop up and scatter all around like a storm.
But Oma bounces them back.
The sound of rocks bouncing back and forth in the hole continued to build.
Then, the wolves attacked the mole one after another.
That coordination is really something.
Admirable, is the only word I can think of to describe it.
Oops.
Me too!
「Defense Fall!」
Lowering its defenses, I close in on the monster.
I made a few swipes at it, but it still didn’t reach Abnormal Status.
There’s cover fire coming from above the pit.
Several arrows pierce the creature.
And lightning strikes.
Heather and the Nue take turns delivering lightning strikes.
In the meantime, the golden-haired fox shoots flames, and the pixie shoots balls of light.
This seems to be working pretty well.
Unable to stand it, the monster flees towards the wall of the pit.
No, it bumped into the wall with great force.
And without stopping, it made to dig a hole and escape.
I won’t let you get away.
