I Am the Only Non-Returner - I Am the Only Non-Returner chapter 39

39 – Blue Sphere

The battle meeting from stages 16 to 19 was held briefly.

Because Aksh*ta’s characteristics cannot be used until stage 20, we plan to kill the turtle scorpion monster by hitting it with Gahi’s characteristics until stage 19.

The rest of the earthworms, shield soldiers, and winged monsters are ours.

I got up from my seat and moved toward the shelter hall where the spheres were.

This is because there is one final main event left to proceed.

‘Sphere’

Gray Sphere+

– Attack speed/attack power +30%, explosion range +10%

Concrete specifications that I checked after a long time.

The firepower of the sphere, which was greatly strengthened by strengthening it 1, was a great help in quickly clearing the stage.

But even that is starting to show some limitations.

‘Sphere Upgrade’

Would you like to upgrade your Gray Orb+? Y/N (Cost: 4800P)

Oh, you have to do this no matter what. Upgrade

All 58 spheres were upgraded, regardless of the significantly increased cost.

Jiiiiing- rumbling-

At the same time as the upgrade, the spheres all melted to the floor, and in an instant, they took on the shape of a blue sphere again.

Weee-

Oh!

“Wow, how long has it been since I upgraded the sphere!”

Gahi was happy and ran with the people towards the sphere.

As if waiting for people to flock in, holes for cannon bullets to exit began to form at the top of the sphere.

Jiing – clanking!

Wow~

The size was about 30% larger than the gray sphere, and a huge gun port was created at the top of the sphere, and its majesty was truly amazing.

The sphere upgrade has been completed.

Blue sphere

– Attack speed/attack power +50%, explosion range +30%

– Synchronized spheres can fire howitzers at designated enemies.

‘And the sphere’s performance increases in proportion to the investment, or rather, it seems to be much more cost-effective? It even uses howitzer artillery, so it would be possible to beat up boss monsters at the same time.’

As expected, it’s good!

All the shelter members exclaimed in unison at the message that appeared in their heads.

“Wow… It’s great to see this again!”

Yoon Byeong-cheon showed an unusually positive response, and the others also looked around the globe with sparkling eyes.

In particular, I felt that the faces of the people fighting within the shelter became unusually bright.

‘Now, those fighting inside the shelter will be able to gain more strength.’

For the first time in a long time, I was able to see Eunchae smiling brightly.

‘Eun-chae and everyone else are doing their part, so I hope you don’t get too discouraged…’

“It was upgraded very quickly. I remember upgrading last time after finishing stage 19…”

The way Hong Seol looked into space and rolled his eyes seemed like a repeat of the previous episode.

“Because the shelter leader levels up quickly.”

Our chef Kim Jeong-gi looks at me and gives me a thumbs up. Isn’t this all thanks to the characteristics of her mother’s heart? hahahaha. Of course, Jeonggi is a man!

“Let’s leave this preparation for now, Hongseol and I will move in a direction that does not go too far from the shelter this time. Since the sphere has been upgraded, there will be no need to go out into the field too far.”

Yes!

“If the singer’s trait hits the turtle and he is still alive, use sphere synchronization to attack him with a howitzer. Those of you who have purchased the sleep trait this time, be sure to use it at least once.”

Yes!

“Monsters that inflict slowdown are the priority targets.

It is said that their casting speed is quite fast, so Mr. Hongseol, if possible, fire at them first and fight in the field. “Let’s fire from inside the shelter until their location is determined.”

“Ugh… I understand.”

Well, it’s a shame, but there’s nothing we can do. If it’s a new monster, even a debuff type monster, it’s better to be a little careful. I don’t mind being surrounded for a while, but Hongseol’s shield level is still low.

Be as careful as possible until there are characteristics or equipment that can remove debuffs.

And I’ll just take out the earthworms first and then deal with the rest.

However, there is one catch if you do this.

Can you satisfy the spectators? As a Korean gamer, it is impossible to give up the rewards you receive every time!

Hmm-

Stage 16 began while I was wondering what kind of performance I should show.

Huung- Quang! Huung- Quang!

Pow, pop, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff!

“Wow! hahahaha! The sphere attack power is crazy!”

The performance of the sphere increased significantly at once, showing a completely different power than before. In particular, perhaps because the attack range was greatly increased, four or five regular zombies exploded with each shot.

Eun-chae’s hand is seen merging with the blue sphere, and a cannonball the size of Eun-chae’s head flies out from the top of the sphere in a small parabola, instantly rendering the spider demon beast a few meters away incapable of combat.

“Heung…”

Eunchae also nods her head in satisfaction.

If you look at the fact that you are not too surprised, is it because you are an experienced person?

Anyway, as I was indirectly experiencing the improved performance of the attack sphere, I saw a huge, massive, rotten turtle scorpion monster walking out one step at a time in the distance.

-Booooo

For some reason, the sound of his crying sounding sad must be due to my mood.

As soon as this guy appeared, 4 earthworms appeared at the same time from all directions, which had now increased to 4 portals.

“I can’t seem to figure out how to achieve this level of difficulty…”

She clicked her tongue and flew her body out of the shelter as she jumped without any particular rhythm.

And as soon as it comes out, a huge spear of brilliant golden light falls on the turtle monster.

Because it was my first time seeing that window from outside the shelter, my eyes were instantly captured and I just stared blankly.

Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

Booooo?!

The guy let out a deep and profound scream and disappeared from the ground along with the spear, and the shock wave that followed blew my body back into the shelter.

Tap!

He was thrown to the floor of the shelter, rolling several times, and the sound of his helmet hitting the floor was loud.

“Oh my gosh…”

And when I opened my eyes, I saw something blackish on a white background, and then it quickly disappeared, followed by a scream.

“aaah!”

I was startled by the sound of screaming and quickly raised my upper body to find Suzy, who was holding her knee-length skirt and looking at me in confusion.

“···Huh? Uh…Sorry.”

“········· Look, saw…”

Look what? ···Did you see it? Then, that was earlier…

I felt a moment of crisis and desperately shook my head with a straight face.

“Ugh… I hit my head and lost consciousness for a moment. I’m sorry.”

Suji, who heard what I said, narrowed her eyes for a moment and looked at me with suspicious eyes, but soon relaxed her expression and said,

“····· No… Is your head okay? It sounded really loud…”

“It’s okay because it’s a stone head. hahahaha.”

“···Puhup···Yes···Ah, feeding bugs!”

Achacha! This is not the time to talk nonsense!

I quickly escaped as if jumping out, grabbed the tail and wriggling tentacles of an earthworm, lifted it high, and hung it on the ground several times.

After confirming that the guy was in a state similar to fainting, he rushed to the other guys and repeated the same routine.

They have a terribly powerful snout, but other than that, they are monsters that are easy to destroy, as you only have to avoid the tentacles that occasionally fly in to grab you.

Furthermore, with the proper use of sprinting, it was surprisingly easy to gather the four stunned animals in one place.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

The sound of shells exploding continuously is heard somewhere. The monsters exploded before they could even wrap themselves around the shelter due to the power of the improved synchronized sphere.

“The concrete upgrade is the ultimate in cost-effectiveness”

Feeling the happiness of 300,000 points, I grabbed the tail of the other earthworm monster and spun it around to hit the first earthworm monster, which was slowly coming to its senses.

Peoeoeook! Clap!

Because these monsters were so squirming, their bodies collided with each other, and the sound of aged pork belly being struck on a cutting board echoed throughout the battlefield.

And the body of the guy who got hit by the earthworm smash was torn wide open, his body fluids were flowing out, and the two-tiered snout that had almost hit me hard last time was extended towards me.

However, perhaps because I was hit by a large attack once, the attack trajectory itself was such that even if I just stayed still, I could miss, so I didn’t need to pay much attention to it.

However, the two earthworms that had passed out next to me woke up at the same time and craned their heads towards me, sticking out their sharp teeth that looked like the snout of a sea eel.

‘Lulubee’s Whisper’

In an instant, a whisper spread from my mouth, and then two earthworms fell headfirst into the ground and stopped moving.

ZzZ zzZ

Two earthworms lying down together and falling asleep.

“Oh my gosh, if you stay homeless in a place like this, you guys will turn your back”

He clicked his tongue and smashed the earthworms that were spinning in the sky, causing them to hug each other.

Peoeoeook!

In the end, one side of the head of the guy who was hit the second time was crushed and exploded, and the brain flew into the sky, creating a small rainbow.

“Wow, you’re so beautiful! You disgusting bastards!”

I was so excited by the blood-red scenery that I hit the tattered earthworm hard on the head of the sleeping guy.

Peoeuungeu!

Then, the upper body of the earthworm he was holding exploded in all directions, and the earthworm that had been hit was startled, shaking its head back and forth and letting out a groan.

Keee!

“Do you know that shouting loudly is considered a misdemeanor?”

I pulled out half of my magic power and threw a right hook into the screaming guy’s face.

Booooo!

Because I felt good, I didn’t bother to check the girl’s condition and instead used all my remaining magical energy to throw a left hook at the girl wearing a forest princess cosplay who was sleeping soundly next to me.

Peogeogeokeok-!

The guys, who had two-thirds of their heads blown off before they could even scream, wriggled for a moment and then fell down.

“To die in your sleep without feeling any pain! That’s a noble thing!”

Nodding my head with satisfaction that I had shown a somewhat decent performance, I ran toward the winged monsters who were cackling and fluttering their feathers in the air, and took advantage of the momentum to make a big jump.

“Eurachacha!”

Unlike last time, when I only caught a few thanks to Suzy’s spatial movement, I now jumped several meters on my own and fell back to the ground, holding on to the wings and legs of several in my path.
