Episode 64 Golem


　When I broke into the interior of the one-winged tower from the terrace, it was filled with powerful monsters.

　A ripping demon (combat strength 48,000) sits on the exposed window sill and smiles.

　A Hell Machine (with a combat strength of 62,000) patrols the corridors, making mechanical noises.

　The little Atlas (56,000) dosses and dances while banging his head against the ceiling, and the Green Dragon (45,000) roars as he turns the stone wall.

　Geeeeeeeeeeeee! ...... ...


　Every time I ran into one of those A-class monsters, I ran away as fast as I could.

　It's not impossible to defeat them, but when it comes to monsters of this level, it's pretty tough to defeat them on my own.

　I can't explore the floor properly if I'm fighting to the death every time I encounter one, because there's no way I'm going to be able to explore the floor properly.

　The goal this time is only the golem and the fusion stone.

　The only way to win against other monsters is to run away.

''Tch, not again ......!''

　I said and ran away again.

　But generally speaking, "running away" is not inextricably linked to the risk of being circled and attacked unilaterally. You may be worried about this.

　However, this time I'm wearing a new equipment newly developed in the territory called 【Wind Footgear】.

　This is an iron legged tool collected by the territorial troops in the Kelmut culture area and equipped with the "jet system" developed by Liv, using the rare magic stone and blue ball (wind attribute) collected by Akira as granting material.

　Kyuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

　When you put magic power into it, a jet of wind shoots out in time with my running and jumping, helping me to move at high speeds.

　I was originally possessed by a female ninja, Saionji Hanako's swiftness, so my "escape power," which was multiplied by means of the "swiftness x jet spray," was as mobile as a metallic slime.

''Hmmm ...... gone...''

　However, the golem didn't appear at all, even though I made full use of such a cheat to advance.

　It seems that the golem doesn't appear on this floor.

　Then I found a staircase, so I proceeded to the upper floor.


　


　This is how I searched each floor of the boarder while running away from the monsters.

　I had to identify the 'hierarchy' of the golem.

　But this was the hardest part of the game.

　That's because this tower is very long.

　This tower was long in length, but it was also huge in width.

　It's a huge circle with many corridors that make it look like a maze.

"Not on this floor either, or ......

　31st, 32nd and 33rd floors...... 40th, 45th, 50th and 51st floors......

　I went up the hierarchy, and without another fight, I ran across the floor, up the stairs, and explored the floor again.


　Dosun, Dosun: ......

　And then I heard those footsteps on the 60th level, which also went up.

'Ugh ......'

　An earth-colored hulking body that looks like burnt offerings, with glowing eyes.

　It is a super heavyweight monster [golem].

"He finally showed up.

　Gogogoggo......!

　As soon as the golem saw me, it swung its heavy fist down like a hammer.

　It's a heavyweight, but it's not slow moving either.

''Oops.''

　I ducked in a flash.

　The wind pressure causes my bangs to rustle.

　That's dangerous. I was in the nick of time.

　It's a good idea to have a good time with them.

You can't do that!　Hey!

　Our attack.

　Come to think of it, it was my first attack of the day.

　I wielded the Copper Sword +10 and destroyed the enemy's right arm first.

　It was surprisingly fragile.

　The golem's right arm is crushed.

　However, the fragments scattered like this naturally gathered together as if they were attracted to a magnet, and quickly reformed the golem's right arm.

　From the resurrected right arm, a heavy attack is unleashed again.

''Tsk. ......''

　That's right.

　The core of its body is made up of a fusion stone, and as long as this body is still alive and well, even if it is partially destroyed, it will quickly gather up the pieces and return to its original state. In order to break this invincible state of invulnerability, the body would have to be 'destroyed' all at once.

　I know such a characteristic from reading the guild's information: ......, but my attack power couldn't destroy the entire golem with a single strike.

　Arms, legs, head and belly.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world, but I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world.

　It was annoying that he didn't even seem to feel any pain since he was a golem.

　Shun! Shun! Hooray!

　However, it seems to be too dull to notice the fact that I'm secretly embedding a mineral into the partially destroyed fragment, due to its insensitivity to pain.

　The mineral is a rare magic stone red jade (fire-attribute) and blue jade (wind-attribute) from the territory.

　Each time it was partially destroyed, the rare magic stone quickly affixed to the earthenware fragment was gradually being incorporated into the golem's interior as it was being repaired.

　The affinity between his earthen body and minerals is high.

　Goh, goh, goh. ......

　All right, I think it's time.

Eat it!

　Kah!

　So I unleashed a raw magical energy of "nama" that doesn't have any attributes.

　It was a technique that Morier would gasp and hit repeatedly, making him short of breath.

''? ......

　Pshaw: ......

　However, my energy cannon isn't very powerful.

　The golem didn't seem to take much damage, and it looked very surprised.

　However, the rare magic stone embedded in it should have reacted to the magic energy and been converted into fire and wind.

　Magic flames occurred inside it, and furthermore, the wind magic played the role of an air spell, and the earthenware body seemed to be emitting extremely high temperatures from the caged heat.

　The steam rushes up so high that it looks like it's moving on steam.

"Fjord!

　What would happen if he fired his "icy magic" at such a hot earthenware body and cooled it all at once?

　Piki, piki, piki, piki! ......

　My ice magic is an intermediate level 3, but the golem's body still cracks.

　The effect was cumulative due to the sudden temperature drop(──) difference(──).

　Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu, Zu. ......

　The strength of the golem is deteriorating like an ancient relic that has been exposed to the weathering of time, and it is difficult to support even its own weight.

　I'm swinging my sword at you.

Ohhhhh! ...... la!

　A slash, multiplied by speed with the wind-footer's jet system, is swept through here!

　Crunchy, crunchy, crunchy!

　Hard, but fragile.

　It feels like smashing glass or a vase or something.

Ha, ha, ha, ha ......

　What do you think?

　If you look back, there is no original form of the enemy, only a scattering of shattered pieces.

　Go......go, go............

　The golem wasn't going to be repaired anymore.

　It was a total destruction.

　Picking up the [Fusion Stone] from the shattered corpse of the golem, I proceeded down the corridor of the tower.


　◇


　Katsoon, Katsoon: ......

　The method of defeating golems must become a pattern. This is because I want to have not only me, but also everyone in the territorial troops hunting golems in the future to acquire fusion stones.

　I will use the temperature difference in the rare magic stones to destroy the whole thing.

　While thinking about how to perform this strategy with my troops, I defeated the golems.

　''Palin! ...... Palin!

　There is a sense of decadent nostalgia as they prowl the dimly lit towers, smashing fragile golems one after the other, like smashing window panes in a schoolhouse at night.

'Kukkaku......'

　On the other hand, running away from the other monsters on this floor was harder than I expected.

　The higher you go in a tower, the more difficult it gets.

　This 60th floor has much stronger monsters than the previous 30 floors, and of course the stronger monsters are often faster, so it's not easy to escape from them.

　It's a good idea to be able to get away from them, as they'll be able to circle you several times and take damage to you.

...... hahahahaha.

　When I managed to get 23 fusion stones, as expected, the damage had accumulated, my magic power was depleted, and my items had run out.

　I dragged my feet and managed to reach the outer ring of the floor.

　The terrace of the 60th floor of the Skyscraper 《Skyscraper》.

　I didn't realize it when I was inside, but outside, the stars were popping in and out of the purple sky.

KU, Kuro-o-maru: ......

　So I look down from the stone terrace and whistle my fingers pew! ...... and blows.

　Heeheen!

　The sound of a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse that wore a horse.
