Chapter 378
They seem to be wary of Erwen’s arrow attacks…
“Is it possible to intercept Erwen at this distance?”
“Yes. But at this distance, most of them respond.”
After all, there were wizards over there.
You’ll have plenty of time to react before the arrows land—
pugh-!
At that time, the magic cannon attached to the front of their captain’s ship emitted a roaring sound and spewed magic spheres.
I knew I would recommend surrender before the start.
It seemed that he had decided that it was not too late to have a conversation after winning the battle.
Ummm… Or maybe I’m thinking of sinking the whole ship and only salvaging the drowned bodies later.
Whii Yii Yii-!
Magical cannonballs flew towards our ship in a parabolic arc close to a straight line.
“Suits!”
Amelia urgently called my alias, but it was Erwen who answered.
“Mister, I can handle this.”
Erwen fired an arrow on the string without even asking how.
Kwaaang-!
Soon, the arrow loaded with the power of the wind spirit collided with the magical cannonball on the sea and exploded.
“How many Erwen can you block?”
“I think four or five at a time should be enough.”
really?
If this is enough, I don’t need a lot of bullets and magic circles, right?
“Good job Erwen. If the shells come next time, block them like that.”
“yes!”
Erwen, who was recognized for his ability, happily waited for the shells to fly again, but unfortunately, the bombardment did not fly after the first shot, and entered a state of commotion for a while.
“It looks like the other side is quite embarrassed.”
I felt the same way as Amelia.
However, sooner or later, the other party has decided what to do.
Pew-! Perong! Puff!
The three ships began to close the distance by firing their magic cannons at once.
As a result, Erwen really took a breathless interception, but even so, sometimes he missed things.
Quaang-!
A shell explodes at the bottom of the ship and the hull shakes greatly.
I’ll have to start slowly now.
This distance seems to be just right.
“Erwen’s spiritization.”
As soon as the order was placed, Erwen immediately used the skill without disagreeing.
But should I still ask this?
“With what properties?”
“water.”
As soon as I mentioned the properties, Erwen carefully took my hand.
Okay then the link is over.
「A water spirit dwells in the character’s body.」
「Reduces damage taken from water property by half.」
「Increases damage taken from electricity property by 4 times.」
「The power of melee weapons is reduced by 50%.」
「Spring water ‘s Blessing Bonus.]
「Healing and regenerative effects received are doubled.」
「Increases the speed of regenerating soul power……」
「…….」
Um, by the way, in practice, the Elemental Barbarian ( Is this your first time using water?
Sweep.
I lowered my head to see the change.
Visually, there was no significant change.
It’s just that the skin is moist and a little smooth.
“Don’t go Emily.”
“Where…?”
Where are you?
The best defense is always an attack.
Well, would it be better to leave this behind?
“Oh and one last thing. If defending the ship is going to be difficult, just drop it and jump down.”
“What’s that—”
No time to waste, so I skipped the details.
And…
Tadat.
Stepping on the railing of the ship, he threw himself into the surging sea.
It wasn’t like diving.
In the current state, there is no need for that.
「Blessing of spring water bonus.」
A one-line bonus with no explanation.
Characters with this bonus are unaffected by underwater breathing and can walk on water.
Just like this.
fault.
A body standing tall on top of the swaying sea surface as if defying gravity.
Name it …….
“Oh oh oh oh oh !!”
Bavarian Jet Ski (jumping) mode.
Tada da dot.
As soon as I landed on the surface of the sea, I screamed and ran forward.
Pew-! Perong! Puff!
For a while, I was embarrassed to see the barbarian running on the water, but the enemies started shooting at me with their magic cannons that were aiming for the ship.
bang-! Kwak! Kwak Kwa Kwam-!
Although the vital points were protected with a shield, the power of the magic cannon that was firing indiscriminately could not be ignored.
First of all, because the name is ‘magic’ shell.
Damage reduction does not apply to physical resistance.
Every time he gets hit, his bones throb.
But…
“Erwen doesn’t have to block the shells.”
[yes? What the hell does that mean……]
Erwen couldn’t speak until the end.
It’s because I saw the skeleton that groaned behind me.
「The character has cast [Risk].」
「By the power of the Ascendant, the abilities inherent in that skill are unlocked.」
「The damage immunity effect from [Stochastic Retaliation] disappears, but the activation rate increases to 100%. It is fixed.”
Magical shells use magic as a resource.
So to put it simply…
「Reflects 30% of the damage taken to the enemy.」
「Reflects 30% of the damage taken to the enemy.」
「Reflects 30% of the damage taken to the enemy.」
「 …….」
It means that if you get hit by one, you can definitely return one.
Puff-! Perong! Puffup!
Immediately after being hit by the magic cannon, the skeletons appeared like afterimages and fired back.
However, the shelling did not damage the ship.
Shaaaaaaa-!
A magical barrier that spreads around the ship.
The barrier was able to block the magic cannon, whose power had been reduced to 30%.
As a result, the enemy continued to bombard without any burden.
It was at one point.
「Strong luck.」
「Reflects 300% of the damage received to the enemy.」
Oh, a great success, too.
[Gaachaat-!!]
Skeleton that ignites the fuse of the super-large magic cannon with the exciting sound unique to the judgment.
Phew-!
The magic bullets that flew with a sound several times louder than usual shattered the barrier surrounding the hull with great ease.
And…
“What kind of a monster…!”
“Everyone abandon the Merina and escape!”
“Come on over!”
A ship began to sink as it was.
‘Nimiral.’
I never thought I would sink right into that one room.
If this happens, how much will the loss be—
flashy—!
At that time, light burst out, and the ship from which all the personnel escaped was recalled and entered subspace.
Well, if that’s the case, I’ll just have to fix it later.
“Sink the boat first!”
Soon, as if they were going to solve the obvious first, they turned their magic cannons and fired shells at the remaining ship, leaving only Amelia alone.
‘I thought it would be like that.’
Erwen did what he could to prevent it, but he couldn’t prevent our ship from sinking.
Because he was too busy avoiding magic.
[It’s Mister Magic!]
“Hide behind me just in case you don’t know!”
I hid behind Erwen, who had been following me in a linked state. During [Elementalization], you receive physical immunity, but you take much more damage from magic.
If [Elementalization] is canceled here, there is only a future where you sink into the sea…
「Reflects 30% of the damage taken to the enemy.」
「Reflects 30% of the damage taken to the enemy. .”
“Reflects 30% of the damage taken to the enemy
.
”
Thanks to the activated [Risk Bearing], counter-fire continued, but the opponent did not stop attacking.
“Paltan is dead!”
“We have to stop him before he comes!”
“More! Pour more!”
“He’s dying too! Just a little more!”
A struggle with all of each other’s everything.
Of course, they will think that they have the advantage.
After all, even if I get to that ship, I’ll be in a mess by then. I’m sure he thinks it’s okay if he pushes through the numbers and catches me, who is hurt and exhausted.
So stupid—
Fish!
Then the light that flew like a flash penetrated my body.
“The character was hit by a ‘thunder spear
.
As I staggered, I managed to keep my balance and avoid falling.
However, his physical condition was already bad.
The injury is also an injury, but it seems that the electric current flowing through the body completely boiled the internal organs…
‘Damn lightning magic.’
Is it because Eli Baba (water) and [Risk] are also turned on?
The amount of damage that reached 8 times was enough to put me in a dying state.
Well, it seems that it was the same for the opponent.
[Gah-chaa-!!]
The judging sound of great success exploded again just in time.
「Strong luck.」
「Reflects 300% of the damage received to the enemy.
」
And…….
————!
As the word says, it flew at the speed of light and smashed the second ship next to the captain’s ship.
‘That… I can’t even repair it.’
For reference, I didn’t hear anything like a roar.
This is due to the temporary deafness.
Beep beep.
Tinnitus that pierces the brain.
Soon I lost strength in my legs and sank into the sea.
Even if it was half intentional.
“The energy of the sea permeates the character’s body.”
“The passive skill [Prayer] greatly increases natural regeneration.
”
You can never lose in the sea.
***
Stormgash’s passive skill [Prayer].
On top of this, the healing and regeneration effect obtained from [Spiritification] was added, and the body began to regenerate as quickly as the potion.
Shaaaaaaa-!
The bones that were dislocated are put back into place, and the burned, stabbed, and crushed flesh grows new.
Unlike the potion, there was no pain, so I was able to perceive the process of recovery in more detail in real time.
Hearing soon returned.
[Are you okay, Mister?]
You can talk underwater in the spirit state.
But I can’t speak.
I pointed up with my index finger, shrugged my shoulders and tilted my head.
[What do you mean upstairs?]
That’s right.
I nodded, and Erwen gave me a quick briefing.
[For now, the attack stopped. I think he thought he’d killed the old man.]
Yes, he’s excitedly putting the flag.
[Ah, I can hear the conversation faintly… I think the wizard is trying to use detection magic now.]
Well, then you’ll find out that you’re alive soon.
Before that, I have to surprise you.
When I gestured to lift me up, Erwen summoned a water spirit and pushed me away.
Chow-!
Above the sea that came back like that.
“…no bastard!”
When I laughed like a water ghost from hell, they freaked out and poured out rave reviews.
“My injuries are all healed…!”
“What kind of monster is that…”
Most of them were embarrassed and opened their mouths, but the chief was different.
Because that’s what a leader is.
A person who must make judgments as calmly as possible in any situation at any time.
“leader!”
“…turn the bow!”
Soon, the remaining captain’s ship quickly changed its direction.
It was for this reason that he did not heal even though the sea water was full around him.
If you recover and run like a zombie, you’ll lose your hand and try to escape.
No matter how much you can walk on the sea, it is impossible to catch up with a ship like that with your two legs.
But…
Tadat.
At this distance, it seems like it’s just a matter of time before we can reach it.
As soon as they started running in earnest, they screamed urgently.
“Here comes!”
“Faster! Faster!”
Now there was not even a check shot.
It’s because the yard that was caught is recovering anyway.
It was judged that if there was a problem in turning the bow due to the reflection, it was a bigger problem.
“It’s all turned…!”
“Magic Stone! Pour the Magic Stone!!”
Finally, the ship, which turned its bow fully, began to move quickly as if it had a motor.
At that time, the distance between me and the boat was about 15m.
‘Oh my god…….’
I concentrated on running with all my strength.
That’s right, if these bastards go back like this, the damage is not so much.
‘We’re going to destroy our ship and let them bounce?’
There’s no way.
When you go, even if you go, give the boat and go!
“Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
As soon as I screamed and spurred my feet, the distance gradually began to narrow.
It probably took some time for it to accelerate.
“I’m going to get caught!”
“More! Pour more magic stones!!”
As the distance gradually decreased, fear appeared on the faces of the guys at the back of the boat.
Looks like being chased by a monster.
Fish-!
In the meantime, Erwen’s arrow hit one of the guys in front of the railing and threw it into the sea.
It was not an instant death because the vital spot was avoided.
“Save me…!”
A guy who screams as he swims around.
However, the guys did not even try to rescue the fallen comrades.
I was too busy running, so I didn’t even pay attention.
Tadat.
I pass him and stretch out my foot as hard as I can.
9m 8m 7m 6m 5m…….
The distance is narrowing little by little.
But it was just there.
The boat, which began to accelerate slowly, eventually surpassed my running speed and abandoned it.
5m 6m 7m 8m…….
As the narrowing distance started widening again, there was little relief in the eyes of those who were watching me from the back of the boat.
‘Nimiral.’
It’s new, but the absence of a mobile device is disappointing.
Originally, the shield barba only had movement skills at level 8, but wasn’t it lucky that he ate the Manticore Essence before that?
If I hadn’t erased [Leap], I would have boarded the ship long ago!
‘Does this really happen here?’
With a heart of resignation inside, I slowly lowered my speed.
Of course, it wasn’t because I really thought I missed it.
“Erwen, shoot our ship. It’s okay to destroy it to some extent.”
[…our ship?]
“Let’s skip the trivial stuff and hurry up.”
When I said it again, Erwen shot an arrow at the stern of the ship…
Kwaaang-!
exploded soon after.
“…I’ll break the repair bill.”
It was the place where the captain’s ship’s magical power propulsion device was located.
***
It’s been solid since the horsepower propulsion system was smashed.
The gap quickly closed again, and soon I was able to successfully climb onto the deck.
And…
“Kill!!”
Of course, there was no such thing as surrendering as soon as they saw me.
The battle started like that.
It was not an easy opponent as it was a clan active on the 6th floor.
But…
‘If it’s not easy, what will they do?’
In fact, the outcome has already been decided.
Eliminate Erwen one by one while hovering around me in [Spiritification] state.
I protect Erwen like that.
Then, when the injuries pile up badly on the body…
Plop-!
It was enough to dive once and come back up.
After repeating this three or so times, they also surrendered, dropping their weapons, as if they had lost their will to fight.
Fifteen turned seven, so is he more than half dead?
“Tsk tsk, you don’t even know how precious life is. Are you just wearing it?”
“I was wrong. Save me…”
What are you saying? You’re already dead.
Kwajik-!
At the same time as he surrendered, the leader hit his head on the ground and I hit him with a hammer.
And after tying up all the remaining guys, he took control of the ship.
“Who is the navigator?”
“That’s me!”
Phew yes the navigator was alive.
“Hey, are you a wizard?”
“…….”
“You just nod your head? Don’t you answer?”
“That’s right. I’m a wizard…….”
During the battle, one remaining wizard was also classified separately.
“Looking at your tattoos, you’re the one who drove the other boat, right?”
“That’s right.”
The guy who owned the other two ships except for the captain’s ship was also classified separately.
And…
“The two of you left…”
“…….”
“Just go.”
“Yes? On the boat, on the boat, to where……”
Where is it?
Kwajik Kwajik-!
The remaining two are useless, so deal with them immediately.
After organizing the personnel so quickly, I went to the aft and checked the condition of the ship.
I saw the horribly smashed horse power propulsion device.
“Shit.”
I was genuinely outraged.
“For you guys to destroy my ship like this…”
“…I’m sorry.”
“If it’s just a matter of saying sorry, why is there a law?”
“…….”
Everyone bowed their heads in silence at my muttering.
Huh yes, what am I going to do with my anger at them—
splatter.
At that moment, the sound of water splashing was heard from the bottom of the boat.
‘Huh? What is it…?’
To clear my doubts, I stuck to the railing and looked down.
And…
“Ah.”
Amelia appeared.
Did he come all the way here by swimming from there?
“…Are you a castaway!”
I said that and threw the rope, and Amelia grabbed it and pulled it straight up onto the boat.
And…
“Suitz, you’re really……”
“Huh?”
“Just one hit.”
Just like that, the fist was stuck in the pit of the stomach.
