Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 272 Defense (2)

The east coast where reefs have risen here and there.

The place where we were pushed in by rough waves and smashed our boat.

“You’ve arrived.”

The sandy beach, already half full of water, was full of monsters.

The typical marine monsters on the 6th floor, the Ranemut Warrior and Shaman.

A conch horn that spews venom from a distance.

Garvel, etc., which has the unique characteristic of multiplying up to three times upon defeat.

“I will help Bjorn too.”

Einar took a step, expressing concern at the size of a hundred behemoths.

Because you’re just watching over him.

“done.”

“What? But…”

But what, but.

Oh, come to think of it, I never ate this essence and showed it in front of him.

“Don’t worry. This is enough alone.”

I held my mace and posed like a hitter with a baseball bat.

And…

“Erwen.”

“Yes, what shall we do this time?”

“wind.”

I pulled out the Elemental Barbarian (Wind) Mode.

「Erwen Fornaci di Tersia cast [Elementalization].」

The shape of a sharp wind began to circle around my skin, wrapping around me.

「The character’s body is imbued with the spirit of wind.」

「All damage received is compensated for evasion.」

「Received magic damage is doubled.」

「Strong bonus against penetration and cutting.」

「Greatly increases agility. Rising…….」

The effect of this mode is simple.

It moves faster and allows you to act as an evasion tank. If you’re a dealer, not a tank, your DPS will go up.

Oh sure, there are other important things.

「The range of all attacks is tripled.」 This

is the biggest feature of Eli Baba (Wind) mode.

When this mod is taken out, normal hits are replaced with splash damage. To put it simply, even a blunt weapon warrior like me can put in a wide-area deal.

“Geeeeek-!”

As if I felt an unusual momentum, the monsters around me began to swarm towards me.

But I held my position and waited for the right time.

You don’t have to wield it twice, right?

Just once.

Doing it right once is enough.

‘transcendence.’

Judging that I had gathered enough, I immediately used [Transcendence].

And…

“The character cast [Swing].”

As if a skilled swordsman drew a sword and wielded it, he swung his mace in a controlled manner.

Whii-i-!

Simultaneously with the sound of wind blowing.

Whoa-!

The mace you are holding becomes longer like a woman’s stick and increases in size proportionally.

The effect of transcendental swing.

「The hitting range increases by 3 times.」

This is why most characters in Dungeons & Stone become more ridiculously playable towards the latter half.

This is mostly multiplication.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!

After that, the sound is cool.

I soon finished [swinging] and checked my surroundings with satisfaction.

‘Yes, this is it.’

There were no living monsters.

***

“Bjorn! How did you do that! Teach me too!!”

“You should also ask Erwen to do it for you later.”

“If I have Erwen, can I do it too!”

“Yeah, similarly.”

I gave a rough answer to Einar, who was impressed with my new linkage, and checked the sea side.

With one cool shot, most of the mobs on the beach have been cleaned up.

“Mister waves! The waves are rolling in!”

After waiting for a while on the empty shore, the waves rose high like a tsunami.

「The rage of the first sea has begun.」

The effect that occurred when the mid-boss of the first wave appeared.

“Siren! I am the Siren Queen!”

Seeing the monster moving along the waves as if surfing, the goddess Ersina exclaimed.

As an explorer who has been active on the 6th floor for a long time, he seems to have known about this monster.

“Why are there monsters of level 4 on this island…”

Why, why?

I came out because one of you turned on the event.

“Everyone, come behind me. Erwen, you are ready to fight.”

“yes.”

“Me? Do I just watch again?”

“For now. I’ll call you if needed, so wait.”

“i get it!”

After simply looking at the formation once more, the Siren Queen finally arrived in front.

“Kyaaaaaaagh-!”

The guy who stabs the trident in his hand while spitting out a sound that doesn’t match his pretty face.

Quaang-!

Like a 4th grade monster, even the normal hits were quite heavy.

Well, there must be another reason why he became a 4th grade.

「The Siren Queen has cast [Song of the Sea].」

「The character’s stats decrease.」

An aura that reduces stats in proportion to the exposure time.

「The Siren Queen has cast [Whirlwind].」

Also, every time she hits, she spits out a whirlpool that steals a certain amount of MP in all directions.

And…….

「The Siren Queen has cast [Proof of Loyalty].」

Periodically summons the 5th grade monster Siren whenever the cooldown is up.

Not just one or two, but dozens of them.

‘It’s a typical debuff shaman type boss monster.’

As expected, cancer alone is not an easy monster.

If the place we met wasn’t right here.

“Behel—laaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

The Siren Queen’s particularity lies in quantity.

Originally, it’s normal to have hundreds of sirens guarding the surroundings.

However, when he just arrived on this island, he was alone.

Of course, it has the property of multiplying on its own if left alone…

‘Why did I put everything aside and come here?’

I gave up looking for an ally to defeat him before he evolves into a raid boss and came here.

“I’ll help you too, so give me your weapon! It’s impossible to level 4 monsters with just you!”

Nebarce made such a suggestion as if we were not trustworthy, but I just let it go in one ear.

And the same goes for Einar.

“What are you talking about? Bjorn is a great warrior!”

“No, not great. That’s a monster that two or three people can kill—”

“Can I bite Bjorn’s mouth?”

“If it’s a seed fire one more time.”

“i get it!”

“…….”

Nebarce closed his mouth as if Einar’s threat was important. Thanks to that, I didn’t care about the back and focused only on the battle.

A priest who is synonymous with healing and blessing.

Spirit Archer.

Tank Barbarian.

In fact, it was like fighting a battle with these three, but the boss fight went smoothly.

That’s also true, isn’t it equipped with a dealer, a tanker, and even a healer?

「Laylin Ersina has cast [Blessing of the Sun]」

「Debuffs of 5th grade or lower are canceled and you gain additional stats for that amount」

Stat reduction is canceled by the priest at regular intervals.

Whii Yii Yii-!

It’s a [Vortex] that steals MP when hit. Just avoid it with the controls.

‘It’s really comfortable because the agility level goes up.’

There is no reason to be too picky about the summoning pattern.

Erwen, who was hovering around me in [Elementalization] state, was killing me before I could accumulate more than 10 of them.

“Behel—laaaaa!!”

Even my threat level was so high that there was no accident where they ignored me and rushed to the rear.

So…….

Kwajik! Kwajik! Kwajik!

All I have to do is possess a tank/dealer and beat the queen.

“Eh eh-!”

It was when they fought for about 20 minutes like that.

「You defeated the Siren Queen. EXP +6.」

The Siren Queen, who had been hit nearly 30 times with [Swing] on her head, finally turned into light and disappeared.

There was no integer that I was expecting in my heart.

‘If the summoner had appeared, it could have been sold at a very high price. Oh, there are no wizards anyway, so that’s it?’

I erased my regret and put down the mace.

Then, with Erwen, who had canceled [Elementalization], they moved to the place where the party was.

“……I thought the three of us would really catch a grade 4 monster.”

Goddess Ersina’s expression was still unrealistic.

And this is the same with Nebarce.

“I’m sure he would have said he was a 5th grade explorer……”

Nebarce, who was blurry, looked at me and gave me a strange look.

“Yes, I wonder if he was hiding his skills……”

What did he say again.

I laughed as soon as I heard it, but I didn’t bother to explain it.

‘That’s funny. It’s just that the rating standards here are very loose.’

This is one of the things I desperately felt after the game became a reality. The Explorer level here is really just a minimum standard.

The guild only looks at the average rank of the essence and gives the grade, but does not consider the synergy of the essence.

For example, Nebarce is exactly that.

‘He was level 4.’

This guy had a level 4 explorer hand.

Since he was from Noark, this probably isn’t a real identity card, but he must have done it himself to get the 4th grade.

But even so, it worked on me within 10 seconds.

Although there is a point that my upbringing method is strong against interpersonal warfare, especially long-distance battles

…

In fact, most of the explorers here did.

Should I say that even if the grade is high, it does not perform well?

‘Looking back, the dragon slayer felt the same way.’

I had been exploring for a long time, so my level was high and I ate a lot of essence, but that’s all.

There is no root in integer combinations.

To be honest, by my standards, it’s not enough to say that he’s a badass.

‘This is exactly what the kids who quit the game after swearing at it for a few days, saying that it was a broken game.’

It was this game that combining low-level skills to achieve synergy was stronger than having 5 higher-level skills.

The basics of this game were to set a core skill like [Giantness] and evolve it in different ways to cheat.

‘At least the most solid combination was the corpse collector bastard.’

That was when I was organizing my thoughts.

“Hey Mr. Yandel!!”

huh?

‘No, wait, this voice…’

I hurriedly turned my head in the direction of the sound.

“Raven! Abman!!”

“Patzran-sama, you’re all right!”

Four men and women appeared in the forest.

Huh, is Misha the only one left now?

***

“Yandel Erwen Einar. I’m glad everyone is safe.”

“Urakburak! I’m glad you’re safe too!!”

It’s a while to run to the happy face and share the reunion.

We quickly shared information with each other.

“What happened?”

“Oh is that it?”

What happened to Raven was simple.

First of all, I started with Mr. Bear, and soon I ran into Patzran and his fellow wizards and moved to the center of the island together?

After arriving, it seemed that he had turned this way after seeing the note I left in the center saying ‘I’m going east’.

“But why did you arrive so late? I’ve been waiting there for over two hours.”

“sorry. I was going there,

but I got lost too much……” The reason for being late was absurd.

There were four people gathered, but no one could find the way

. You don’t seem to know how to do anything…….’

Needless to say Mr. Bear.

Yes,

it’s only natural that you can’t find your way with this member

. ”

“Yes? Not yet…”

“Don’t worry too much. Haven’t you guys just met? I ‘ll be fine somewhere on the island.”

I tried to shake off my worries and shifted my gaze.

Like this side, my colleague Ersina and Patsran, who had met, were approaching me.

“I heard what Ersina has been saying so far.

” Did you hear …?”

Thank you.”

“When it’s difficult, we should help each other. By the way, did you hear about the identity of the blonde… no, that Drows?”

“Ah, if that’s the case… I did. It’s hard to believe that Drowus was from Noark. So, can I check a few things myself?” Soon

after, Patsran politely asked if he could talk to the Nebarce I caught, and I readily agreed. ”

Use it well and give it back

.”

This part is done.

I approached Raven overhearing the conversation between Patzran and Nebarce,

and whispered quietly,

“Raven’s answer is fine, just listen.”

“…?

” There is a guy who has been conspiring with the rucks.”

He is the one who betrayed the team and informed Amelia that they were coming to this island today.

Does only Amelia know who that guy is?

Be aware. If you find anything strange, let me know right away.”

After

I finished, Raven nodded with a stiff face

. What’s your name?” I

went over to the wizard who was resting on the floor and asked for his name. I figured that if we had a conversation, we might find something suspicious

.

nice to meet you Let’s call it Oulok.”

Looking at the wizard who stretched out his hand with a friendly smile, I was startled. The

priestess Elsina, the male prosecutor Patsran,

and even the female archer we haven’t met yet.

None of the suspects have properly identified who might be the traitor… …..

For some reason, certainty was soaring.

“Hans Aulock. Feel free to call me Hans

. ”
