I Am the Only Non-Returner - I Am the Only Non-Returner chapter 96
96 – Surprisingly strong people
“They’re invincible… When their stamina falls below a certain level, they become invincible. And while they’re invincible, they fill up their stamina with heals.”
It seems that Bella’s Stigmata is an attribute that grants invincibility, and Earth’s Blessing is an area heal.
Soul Cohesion is probably a passive trait that prevents that damn saint from dying.
In addition, the saint has a high level of divine power affinity and mana affinity, so her recovery will be high, so she will be able to use her characteristics without any problems for a while.
“You put together some kind of game. This was Time Attack?”
Boss monsters are just buff injectors.
The main force was the ground army led by Dragon and Panhu.
Puuucuuuk
– Grumbling…
Of course, invincibility did not last indefinitely.
However, the time between 1 and 2 minutes is difficult to consider as short-lived.
If you don’t kill the dragon right away like you did before it goes into an invincible state, it will be quite a difficult battle.
“It’s hard to kill a dragon in one hit without the lightning trait, but the dragon…”
Currently, the duration of lightning has been increased to 7 minutes due to the battle in the dimensional gap.
However, considering that last time I felt quite a burden in less than a minute, it was necessary to properly adjust the activation of the lightning.
“Honey-! I can’t kill those wild boar monsters with arrows all at once! I’ll clean up Pohola first and then join you!”
In any case, Hong Seol needed to revise his strategy on the battlefield due to his characteristic of trampling opponents with his crazy attack speed and continuous fire damage.
Then what should I do first?
Step by step, cutting off the heads of each person at a time to reduce the size may be a quick way, even if it is slow at the moment.
However, it was difficult to ignore the army of groups approaching the shelter.
Those who were supposed to fall after being hit by bullets held on for about a minute or two and quickly reached the closest range to the shelter.
“Let’s break up the formation first.”
I sprinted towards the largest dragon as a target, held the end of its thick tail in my arms, and ran in the direction of the shelter.
It looked funny as they had no posture and were holding their tails and looking backwards, but that alone caused many of them to hit the dragon’s body and bounce back and forth like bowling pins.
– Cheaaa!
The dragon was dragged by his tail and tried to hold on by stamping the ground with his front paws.
Strength levels in the thousands have reached a level where such insignificant resistance is ignored.
Chaaa!
A dust storm caused by the massive body being drawn to the ground covered the battlefield, and upon realizing that I was somewhat close to the shelter, I cast my trademark Windmill Spin.
Buuung!
Wooooo!
As the 4-story apartment building whirled like a tornado and crossed the battlefield, the guys who were fearfully advancing towards the shelter looked at the dragon blankly for a moment and were swept away.
······!!
It seemed like the team members were cheering something inside the shelter, but it couldn’t be heard clearly due to the wind pressure.
The dragon has good stamina and a strong body, and does not tear off easily like a praying mantis, so it does not die even if it is swung around the shelter several times.
“hahahahaha! Do you think I’ll let you touch my love house!”
Fish shu shu shoot!
When Hong Seol, who was shooting an arrow near the shelter, passed by more than 20 times, the dragon entered an invincible state.
“Wow, then this kid is invincible twice in dragon form and once again in dragon form? If you add [Speed] On top of that, it’s a real scam.”
Our shelter only increases the clear time, but I was wondering if other shelters could overcome it, so I looked at Shelter C, where the grandmother was, and saw the magic in my eyes.
“Uh… Just by looking at the clothes, it looks like that old lady…”
At that moment, I saw what appeared to be a sly old woman wearing an improved hanbok standing on top of the shelter, but she was not in the same slouched posture when she came to us.
“······ Are they the same person? What shoulders are like the Pacific Ocean?”
When she looked at her grandmother, whose body had swelled to almost the same size as mine, she wondered why her hanbok wasn’t torn.
Her grandmother thrust her legs forward with quite the correct posture.
Kuhwaaa!
The green magical fist that started from her grandmother’s fist grew in size as it crossed the battlefield, soon growing to the size of our shelter, and exploding in a huge explosion in the middle of the battlefield.
“Wow! That’s crazy!”
From Noble mtl dot com
It is so powerful that I slow down my running speed without even realizing it.
Almost 500 monsters were destroyed in an instant, and many more were thrown around.
“Wow… Is that the power of the unique level attack characteristics? The single damage seems to be lower than God’s Wrath, but the wide area damage cannot be compared.”
If it had exploded in the same location with God’s Wrath, the limit would have been around 200.
In addition, since it shoots in a straight line, it also damages those it touches while moving, so it was a good ability that could inflict damage to a lot more monsters.
But once she used her powers, her grandmother’s body shrank drastically, and she was soon seen crouching on the floor, breathing heavily.
“Of course there will be recoil. But I think I can use it at least once more, right?”
I guessed that by looking at the state of physical strength and magic power.
I got bored just walking around the shelter, so I looked at another shelter with interest, and the response was much neater than I expected.
Of course, it may be because a large number of panhus and poholas flocked to us due to the characteristics of perfumers.
Some impressive abilities were shown.
A characteristic that causes poisonous rain to fall from the sky.
A characteristic that causes earthquakes in the ground and causes cracked ground to swallow monsters.
A trait that transforms a huge mantis monster into a very small scarab.
Coveted abilities, such as the ability to create a gust of wind and blow it high into the sky to cause it to fall to death, were displayed everywhere.
“Wow, that looks like the sweetest thing? Is it a golem?”
What caught my eye the most was the sight of Shelter A, who I thought was a brainiac, leading dozens of golems and ravaging the battlefield.
He was even inside a silvery, matte, slippery golem.

“The characteristics depend on the golem itself. Wow…”
Whenever the Silver Golem’s fist touched the bodies of those with invincibility, the light on the shield indicating invincibility dimmed, and it seemed to be a characteristic effect called Time of Judgment.
And the combat power of the smaller golems that filled the surrounding area was by no means low.
In order to deal with all of them, it was judged that Hong Seol and Kim Hyun-ah had to form a team to be equal.
The evaluation of Shelter A was urgently revised, and on the other hand, the strength of personnel other than Shelter A was greatly reduced.
“The difference in combat power is too big. Well, it’s the same in our shelter, but…”
In the end, the most important game is whether or not you can protect the shelter no matter how strong you are.
Wooow-
The dragon I was holding in my arms entered its second invincible state and began to rapidly shrink in size.
“Eight!”
Plop-!
So they immediately threw it into the poison pit of the moat.
I watched for a while and saw that the guy who had lost his invincibility was struggling in the poisonous water, and his shield was slowly dissolving.
After becoming a dragon, the ability to float disappeared, so I was trying to climb up the wall of the moat.
The monsters, who had gone crazy due to Euncheol’s characteristics, kicked the climbing Yongins and knocked them down again.
Champhyaaa!
“Puh-ha-ha-funny.”
Kwaaang!
As I was chuckling and laughing for a moment, the shelter was hit by something and shook violently.
“One of the ones I cut was correct! I’ll take care of the dragon!-“
Hyuna’s urgent voice.
Hyuna probably cut off the dragon’s poisonous breath condensed and fired, but it seemed like one hit the shelter.
Whaaa!
At that moment, another dragon, briefly confused by Euncheol’s characteristics, sprayed toxic breath and attacked his companions.
“Lala–!”
Lara’s characteristics responded to the shout she made with all her might.
– Lara, the Spirit of Marriage, casts [Quiet].
– All status abnormalities and buffs on the battlefield are removed, and a state of silence is entered for 3 minutes.
– Due to the effect of [Quiet], The durability of the shelter has increased by 7120.
– Due to the effect of [Quiet], The attack power of the attack sphere has increased by 4990.
The invincibility of hundreds of monsters was lifted, and the attack power of the attack sphere increased by a whopping 5000.
I don’t know what the basic attack power was, but it was definitely a huge increase.
The durability of the shelter has increased in real time, and the saturation of the shield surrounding the shelter has become more intense.
Wow! Puck! Pop!
The effect of the increase in sphere attack power was felt immediately, as Panhu was destroyed with a single shot from the synchronized sphere.
Seeing the faces of my team members in the shelter turning bright colors, I also became excited.
“Mr. Go Ok-ja! You must not use this stage in a disorderly manner!”
Go Okja gave an OK sign to my shout.
There is no need to get rid of the Yongin people who were pushed into the pit.
Afterwards, the battlefield entered a state of silence, filled with only the sounds of monsters purring, weapons clashing, and screams.
The battlefield entered a completely primitive state for 3 minutes.
And when I, who was most optimized for that state, started dancing with my sword, I could see the heads of monsters floating in the air and a rainbow shining through the blood flying everywhere.

The sewer manager trait was deleted and passed on to his uncle, so there are currently 18 traits in total.
And the trait that was just stolen from the turtle scorpion monster was an amazing ability just in terms of numbers.
Hard exoskeleton (advanced)
– No worries even if the shield comes off. A hard shell is created and its strength is increased by 400%.
– [Hard exoskeleton] Works synergistically with Rihlimo full armor pieces.
– The outer shell strength of [Hard Exoskeleton] Increases to 800%.
“Wow… This is my first time seeing something like this… Why is it so good for sculpture?”
It’s a trait that only shines after all shields are gone, but it felt reassuring anyway.
As the full body armor was not exposed, I looked at the bare arm and noticed that the skin was instantly hard and keratinized.
“Today, I am one step further from being human…”
And the trait that Yapsap, who only thinks about debuffing girls, took from the wizard.
Aesthetics of Slowness (Advanced)
– Significantly slows down the movement of enemies within a certain radius for 4 seconds.
– Magic power -50 per turn
“This takes a lot of magic power.”
It was a good trait as long as there was no resistance, so I nodded with satisfaction.
Afterwards, the battle took place in silence for only 3 minutes, and nearly half of the enemy’s power was lost.
