SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 61

mutated monsters (2)

Even the bleeding effect following the critical hit!

Bleeding not only does continuous damage, but also has a healing effect, so the blade magic piece would further advance Lokan’s attack power.

It is for this reason that Lokan targeted the tricky blade mine among the five variants.

Of course, I didn’t know that the item I wanted from the beginning would drop.

“I’m really lucky this time.”

When I checked the quest window with a happy smile, the mutated monster confirmation had changed from 0/3 to 1/3.

The original blade blade dans are those who do not have an entity called a boss monster.

“I still have to hurry.”

The other two types of monsters I had wished were simpler than this. Only time is an issue. Since there is no capsule-only suit yet, the access time limit was short-lived.

Lokan, who quickly returned to one more hunting ground and fulfilled the quest completion condition by 2/3, terminated the connection and returned to reality.

“It’s like people who can’t paint.”

I don’t know who was caught, but concrete hints on how to get to the 3rd city were already sparsely popping up online.

It’s unlikely that someone spread it on purpose, but it seems like it was caught carelessly. Or it was leaked after spreading information to the same guild.

Everyone was looking for a way to the 3rd city with their eyes turned on, so it wouldn’t be too strange if I found out without my knowledge.

“There will be more people soon.”

The method was revealed not only in the Crossroads, but also in a number of regions, and there were some differences depending on the race or region, but all the moving methods were generally the same, so it seemed likely that the tertiary city entrants would appear soon in the rest of the regions.

“I’m glad you’re ready.”

Fortunately, they were prepared to meet them in advance.

He could make more of a difference while they’re making money from vending machines over and over again with false information.

Lokan searched for some information as he recalled the following plans.

They were guilds and individuals who were famous in a previous life.

“After all, I can’t help it.”

There were quite a few people who advanced to the tertiary city early thanks to the reinforcement equipment they had sprayed. However, the trend is not where their control goes.

There were some variables, but most of those who did well were moving ahead quickly.

Unless they were in the same region, it was not easy to properly disturb them, let alone bring them down with false information alone.

“Is this the beginning?”

In that sense, the real race had just begun.

Now, when various races meet, merge into a guild, or unite to create synergy, repeat, and grow rapidly, this was the beginning of true competition and a time when we had to widen the gap.

“I look forward to it.”

An excited smile crept across his lips.

* * *

After connecting to The Road again, Lokan found the Crossroad.

It was because he had to organize the items piled up in the vending machine, and he had to go through it in order to head to the next destination on the same line.“You are doing well.”

The shop I found while hiding was already crowded with quite a few people.

As if that was the only way, Lokan was hunting the intended monsters and selling the by-products.

It wasn’t intentional, but it’s becoming more popular as rumors circulate that ‘doing a lot of trading with shops helps your reputation work’.

Thanks to this, the by-products that make money were piled up, and the consumables that were inflated to several times the size of the shopping mall were considerably reduced.

After taking out and stuffing the items, Lokan ran out and ran to the east as it was.

‘Everyone is here.’

The last variant was a herd of ‘murlocs’ that inhabited the seashore.

It was a monster that looked like a mutant fish, but strangely, it was divided into two classes.

Shaman and Rogue.

It’s a combination that doesn’t readily match, but that’s why it was tricky.

If you rush in to first defeat the shaman who fires various curses and enchantments, you will be stabbed by a stealth murloc rogue.

For that reason, it could have been more difficult if it was more demanding than the blade dangs, but Rokhan had a certain point of trust.

‘Blessing of the half spirit. Without this, it would have been difficult.’

An anti-spirit’s blessing that increases all elemental defenses by 10%.

Here, 10% does not mean adding 10% of your magic defense. Conversely, it was safe to say that it reduced the enemy’s magical attack power by 10%.

From 0% to 100%. Of course, it was difficult for a user who actually achieved 100% to raise it so much that it was never in a previous life.

With 10% defense against all attributes, Lokan would only take about 90% damage even if he was hit by magic with his bare body.

“Let’s see… … .”

Reaching the front of the murloc’s habitat, Rokhan first checked the terrain. In the case of the habitat of the murloc, which is classified as a fairly popular hunting ground even in the middle, the basic topography is the same, but there are things that change from time to time.

“Are six confirmed at once?”

It was the existence of the ‘big clams’ that the murlocs were farming.

The habitats of murlocs are classified into shipwrecks and farms. In the shipwrecks, there was a ‘treasure box’ where items of normal to rare grade were dropped with a certain probability, and there were giant clams that dropped ‘mana pearls’ in the farm.

Among them, it was the giant clams that Rokhan had the brightest eyes on.

If you’re lucky, a treasure chest where you can get even 130-140 levels of rare equipment is good, but in giant clams, you can get high-priced mana pearls with a high probability, and you can acquire an item called five-colored pearls with a low probability. .

Mana pearls, which are used as gems and crafting materials, also cost quite a bit, but if you crush the five-colored pearls and sprinkle powder on your body, it has the effect of temporarily increasing your attribute defense.

In addition to sales, it is highly used as a combat aid.

‘If you get enough pearls of the five colors… … . I might be able to break through there too.’

That was the reason Lokan was aiming for the five-colored pearls. The secret dungeon of Crossroads that can only be attacked by increasing the attribute defense!

I know the location, but the magic attack is burdensome, so I’m trying to prepare for a secret dungeon that I haven’t tried yet.

“First, I have to catch the clam spot.”

Although the number of giant clams was small and their positions appeared randomly, it was not a level of concern. This is because there is only one user who hunts here right now, Lokan.

In addition, the regen speed is not slow, so if the murlocs can be arranged stably, it can suck honey properly.

It is to kill murlocs and giant clams within the circulation by moving as if drawing a circle or a square with a certain movement line.

“You don’t have to go into the water.”

The problem is that many of the giant clams are half-submerged with their heads sticking out.

For that reason, I had to swim to look at them, but if I was in the water where my movement was not free, I could be caught by a murloc shaman.

So Lokan lightly passed the submerged giant clams. Considering the regen speed of giant clams anyway, even if you didn’t aim for all the giant clams, it was possible to do it repeatedly without stopping enough.

For that reason, Lokan took a look at an area on the beach and moved to it.

And one more thing. He put on one more ragged vest made with mechanical engineering.

[Ragged Machine Vest] [Superior]

A mechanical vest that protects against an enemy’s physical attack only once. When any attack is hit, it blocks and destroys it instead.

-Defends one attack below a certain level

– Automatic destruction when the effect is activated

It was a guy that cost dozens of silver just for the material cost, but Lokan spared no effort. He had to raise the proficiency of his mechanical engineering skills, and the murloc rogue’s attack power was intimidating.

Even if they were to be attacked at once, even Lokan could take a serious blow.

‘But it’s different if you have a little bit of time.’

However, it is a different story if you are given time to block an attack and react.

Whether you use a guard, press it with force, or at least use a Berserk, you can deal with whatever you want.

[Tainted Murloc Shaman][Lv 141]

“Leaf attack, fatal blow!”

Lokan jumped up to the place where he didn’t know how many people with a whopping level 20 or more were hiding in stealth.

He concentrated his power at once and smashed the murloc shaman on the top of his head.

ꥥ!

The murloc shaman’s head, like a rotten fish head, was cut in a single blow.

Since the damage boosted by the combination skill was already applied to spells with low vitality, it was a one-shot, one-kill, even though there was a difference of level 30 or higher.

Knuckle!

But he couldn’t be vigilant. The moment the murloc shaman’s head exploded, the murloc rogue broke out of hiding and appeared from behind.

A small but sharp dagger cut through the air to pierce Rokhan’s neck.

“huh!”

Lokan wasn’t too bad either. As expected, he took a light turn and smashed the Murloc rogue. Because the distance was too close, he was swinging the blunt like a blunt weapon.

Kwok!

In one room, one side of the murloc thief’s head was crushed into the shape of a chopstick.

His eyeballs protrude as if they were about to pop out, and he spewed mucus from his mouth, but his breath was still there.

Rokhan’s expression hardened and he rolled his feet.

“strike!”

The power value increased by the skill does not only apply to both hands and weapons. Rokhan stomped on the head of the murloc rogue that had been squashed with his weight on it.

He briefly swung his battle axe, flattened and split between his fixed head and torso.

Knuckle! Knuckle!Then, this time, three murloc bandits attacked at the same time.

As it is a hunting ground that no one has ever been to, the number of monsters released on the field is also abundant enough to be excessive.

“guard!”

It was intimidating because everyone was crushed in stealth, but Lokan responded calmly.

He acted as a guard, striking a dagger with his left arm and pulling a battle ax in his right hand to block the other.

[The Ragged Mechanical Vest has been destroyed by the Murloc Rogue.]

The last attack hit with the body.

I didn’t know I’d be using this already, but considering the characteristics of the Murloc Rogue focused on one-shot attacks, it was worth it. Especially since this last attack was his combination skill.

The curse of the deep sea.

If you start getting caught in this combination skill that overlaps and cuts down the enemy’s stats pierced by a dagger, you’ll get a big obstacle to hunting.

‘The best thing is that it doesn’t fit at all.’

Thanks to this, Lokan, who created a gap, immediately activated his skill. As the one who will send the three men who attack again in one room.

“Twist Attack!”

The Force was activated as soon as the battle started. The murlocs were swept away by the vortex of power, their bodies were torn and howled.

It didn’t end with one room. It stopped only after turning all three revolutions on the spot using the excess of power.

“Whoa.”

Thanks to that, none of the guys who attacked me were in good shape. His whole body was ovulated, or at least one arm was limp, barely holding on.

“It’s soggy!”

Rokhan even wielded his Battle Ax to end them all.

If they weren’t for the weak shaman and rogue classes, they might have had a lot of trouble.

As their level rises, their stamina has also risen significantly, so it would be unreasonable to see the end at once unless the critical hits.

Of course, if you hit the critical hit well, it will melt in an instant.

“Then let’s see”

After confirming that there were no more attacks, Lokan calmly stood in front of the giant clam.

‘Five-colored pearls, five-colored pearls… … .’

You could open this big mouth and see what was in it.

“Damn.”

However, nothing was found in the mouth of the giant clams that had been flipped over. Let alone the five-colored pearls, not even the mana pearls were found.

Thanks to that, Rokhan’s expression was wrinkled. Well, since when did he say he was lucky… … .

[Nothing found.]

The moment he thought so, a translucent window appeared in front of his eyes.

[Finding the Traces of the Lion King][Quest]

The Lion King’s sealed helmet sensed some kind of power. Let’s find it and reveal it.
