68-Episode 63: Sage Fights the Hierarchy Boss




 I've noticed two things.

 One is that the sealing area is designed to test the intruder rather than sealing anything.
 100 Sahagin Tempest.
 The placement of Scylla and Seahorn in the subterranean lake.
 Both of these are very hard for the first-time adventurer.
 Even skilled adventurers would have a hard time leaving their magic power intact before the next level.

 But the proper fighting style and pace.
 If you can protect them, you can advance easily.
 It's important to be aware of the terrain and the characteristics of your opponent.
 The fact that there is an optimal solution to those things is why I assume you are trying.

 Now, one more thing....

 It's really quite simple.

 There is--.

 There's a huge magical reaction ahead.
 Probably, but it's the boss class of this level.
 There's no doubt about it.
 The opponent is an S-rank.

 I was walking deep along the water vein extending from the subterranean lake, and then I suddenly stopped.
 Something sharp hit my earbuds.
 It came flying in from deep in the dungeon at high speed.

 Water.

 A huge mass of water.

 As soon as I saw it, I immediately activated my magic.

 [Water surface walking]

 Escape to the side water vein.
 The mass landed on the side wall.

 

 A rumbling sound echoed through the watery hierarchy.
 The walls were gouged out and the whole place shook.
 Stalactites rained down from the ceiling.
 I looked forward, calmly avoiding it.

 Zuri.......... Zuri.......... Zuri........... Zuri........... Zuri........... Zuri...........

 A sound like the wringing of water-absorbed cowhide could be heard from the back of the room.
 Soon, 18 red lights appeared in my vision.
 Two of them are a pair of eyes.

 Nine twin eyes.
 And what appeared was nine long necks.

'Kishaaaaaaaaaaaa!

 A sharp voice cut through the air.

 A high dragon.

 A multi-headed water dragon with nine heads.
 It is one of the so-called dragon species.
 Because of the lethal poison attached to its fangs, it could not approach poorly, and because it was a dragon species, its magic resistance was unusually high as usual.
 It was a monster that was seamless at both close and long range.

 The mass of water just now was probably a water attack from the High Dragon.
 The Water Dragon's Water Breath (Breath) compresses and unleashes the water it swallowed.
 Even a fully strengthened [Warrior (Warrior)] would not be safe if it took a direct hit.

 Definitely an S-rank.
 Moreover, if the Earth Dragon is S-rank (minus), this one is S-rank (plus). In other words, it's a higher-ranked species than the Earth Dragon.

 Therefore, his skill points would increase significantly.
 Without a doubt, it should be no more than 7,000 points.

 How could such a large demonic beast live in Galveer with its magic power diluted?
 They would have to consider it later.
 But that can wait.

 Flippantly, I unconsciously licked my lips with my tongue.

 The high dragon nods its head.
 With a snap, it opened its jaw gate and spat out a lump of water.

 Four consecutive shots--.

 I activate my magic.

 [Leg strength increase] [Agility increase] [Acceleration] [Super reaction]

 Against four water attacks, I set up a quadruple activation.
 I dodge the attacks brilliantly as I move forward.

 The High Dragon, which was able to avoid the water strikes, switched to a direct attack.
 I extended my neck to the [villager] who was trying to sneak into my pocket.
 It's sharper than a bad swordsman's attack.
 But I dodge that too.
 The empty-swinging high dragon's long neck made a bittan sound and plunged into the water vein.
 A loud splash goes up.
 I made a close encounter with the long neck to blend in with it.

 Once the sword is in its sheath.
 I activated my magic in an accelerated state.

 Increasing hardness, accelerating, weakening defenses.

 Furthermore--

"Siphon style sword technique!


 Draw your sword!


 He ran the blade in its sheath.
 The blade that had been pulled out was brilliant, slicing off a high dragon's head.
 That's not all.
 A sharp air pressure attacked the remaining eight heads that were watching behind him.
 An invisible slash.
 In contrast, the High Dragon instinctively avoided it.
 Too late.
 The eight heads were also slashed off with a spongy slash.

''That........''

 Mmm..........
 I was going to cut one off........
 It seems that I haven't done my best to pull off a sword yet.

 The Siphon style of swordsmanship that Meira taught me also seems to be understood by dragons.
 This is good.
 This is quite a harvest.

 All of the High Dragons' heads are going to be cut off.

 It's competitive.

 --It looked like.

 The head that should have been sliced off suddenly starts to move.
 Slowly, the headless long head lifts up.
 Something wriggled on the severed surface.
 Then, as if watching an explosion of magma, the cells multiplied.
 What appeared with the slimy body fluid was the head.

 A dragon's head grew out.
 And not just one of them.
 All the heads that should have been cut off will regenerate.

 I clicked my tongue.

'I knew the regeneration ability was manifest........'

 The most annoying feature of a high dragon is not water damage, poison, or the magic resistance inherent in the dragon species.
 It's an explosive regeneration ability.
 When it comes to this ability, it is the highest of all the dragon species.

 After returning to its original state, the dragon stretched its neck again and attacked.
 I'm not going to be able to get my hands on any of them.
 I swing my sword each time.
 I sent its head flying a few times, but it quickly regenerated.

 This regeneration ability is not infinite.
 It is done by the magic supply, and if it runs out, it will not be able to regenerate.
 If you destroy the dragon's magic circuitry, the same thing is possible, but it's extremely difficult to sneak into its bosom.

 The opponent is an S-rank.
 This is the boss of the hierarchy.
 The Rulers and the Iron and Fire Strike that Crushes God are likely to be used.

 But they're out of order.
 I don't need to tell you why.
 It consumes too much magic power.
 And Lacel Shin Stark's body is not yet complete.
 It's not so easy to create your own magic that you can easily shoot it with a child's body.

 But I'm not in the slightest hurry.

 Because the High Dragon has a winning method.

 I grinned.
