Surviving the Game as a Barbarian - Surviving the Game as a Barbarian chapter 140

140 Awakening (3)

[Swipe].

It’s a skill that doesn’t require intense imaging unlike other skills because it’s just swinging hard.

Whoo-!

This skill didn’t even have the usual effects of a little light on the weapon or a gust of wind.

When I was playing the game, I was a little dissatisfied with this part.

Skills tend to get glamorous and fancy names as they get higher grades, but why is this skill so rare?

I found the answer today.

‘Ogres were also efficient worms.’

In reality, having an effect like that doesn’t help. It’s only noticeable for nothing, and it’s like exposing only my information to an enemy with wide knowledge.

Rather, this is practical.

And as if to prove it.

「Regal Vagos has cast [Dark Curtain].」

The guy uses a defensive skill.

Exactly on what basis this decision was made is unknown.

You might just think that this is enough.

So, rather than retreating, he may have decided that it would be reasonable to stick the sword in the vital spot while maintaining a distance.

However… … .

Quazig!

The 4th grade skill [Dark Curtain] is shattered as soon as it touches my mace without holding it for even a second.

It was natural.

Even though it may not have a grand name like [Rocking Earth] or [Wrath of Incarnation], [Swipe] is an attack skill that belongs to the upper tier even at level 3.

“… … !”

Only then did he realize the situation and twist his body.

Well, if that’s the case, you should have avoided it in the first place.

Puff-!

It wasn’t the top of the head I was aiming for, but my mace managed to slam it down over his shoulder.

A guy who makes a short moan and quickly spreads the distance.

Tadat.

The dislocated shoulder is deformed and drooping.

He quickly puts his sword into his mouth, moving his remaining hand into his pocket.

Maybe it’s a space

What you want to take out is probably a potion.

‘Who do you see as a sick person?’

I have no intention of giving you time to recover.

“Dwalky! Use voice control.”

First of all, since the opponent is a person, I turned on the team voice and ran towards him.

And quickly placed the order.

“Hikurod, Rotmiller! You two, protect Dwalkie. Misha, you are behind me!”

Of course, I don’t have time to talk for a long time right now, so I’ll start with the basic formation again.

Step-by-step instructions were given.

Fortunately, the colleagues accepted their respective duties without any word of mouth.

It started with Dwalkie.

Whoo-!

The moment he evaded my mace with a minkae-like movement.

Curse magic seeps into his body.

「Real Warb Dwalky has cast a 9th grade curse magic [Slow].」

In fact, it is safe to say that Dwalkie can do this for one person.

To be honest, that guy is a type specializing in agility.

“Things like garbage… … !”

He did not hide his anger and showed his full power.

From the 5th grade essence, [Advanced Acceleration] to [Afterimage].

In an instant, the multiplier would have increased the agility value.

Tadat-!

Novel from https://noblemtl.net

Maybe it’s because of the reduced cognitive ability, and just following the movements is enough to make your eyes ache.

‘Stat correction took a slowdown, but that’s it.’

I feel like a monster again, but I calmly did what I had to do.

‘Seeing that my arm is not getting better, I don’t think there are any regeneration-type essences or number items.’

The number of cases is narrowed by the newly obtained information.

And I focus on the role assigned to me.

Oh, of course, my role is simple.

Sigh-! Kakak, pooh!

To be beaten happily while blocking the middle of the passage.

“Abandon the thought of dying well.”

He blows cold arsenic at me.

It was certainly impossible to dodge or dodge it with my agility value, as he exerted all his power. It would be practically meaningless to block the Akje longsword with a shield.

So it’s just the result of being beaten with the body.

Chewy profit-!

In an instant, the whole body ovulates, and acidic blood oozes out of the cracked skin.

Because the vampire essence disappeared, there was nothing to heal if left alone as before.

However, this is also not a problem.

When was the last time you chewed and swallowed an enemy with your teeth intact?

Clink!

Rotmiller, who was checking the enemy with a crossbow from behind, checks my condition in real time and throws a potion taken from the [Treasure Vault].

“The body will regenerate due to the recovery (medium) effect.”

aka Barbarian Beginner Mode.

‘It’s been a while since I’ve done this.’

Unlike me, who was filled with strange emotions, the young emotion in his eyes was distrust.

Did you just check my expression and realize that I’m not completely in pain?

He murmurs as if he’s absurd.

“… … crazy bastard.”

Although they must have been in and out of the labyrinth for a long time, it seems they have not yet met a cub like me.

‘Somehow I got rave reviews.’

Of course, the answer is a mace.

Whoo!

The dwarf’s support continues at the same time as the gnome quickly avoids it.

“Hikurod Murad has cast [Lightning].”

“Hikurod Murad has cast [Release].”

An electric sphere that was fired exquisitely when it floated in the air.

He stepped on the wall and jumped again to avoid it.

However, it was not terribly disappointing.

Because this is not the real role of the dwarf in the first place.

There were only three things I asked the dwarf.

“What do you think would be different if the garbage gathered?”

Assist from a distance using ‘Lightning Discharge’.

Protect the Dwalkies in case anything goes wrong.

and… … .

「Regal Bagos has cast [Fear Imprint].」

Use items on time.

“Hikurod Murad used [Guardian’s Wrist Guard].”

The ability of the 4th grade monster Nightmare [Fear Imprint].

A skill that temporarily infuses a strong fear into the enemy, and returns it to the physical value corresponding to the size.

“Strongly knocks back enemies and temporarily becomes immune to all harmful effects inflicted on allies.”

Without even using the skill properly, a gust of wind blows and the mind is refreshed.

As expected, ‘Guardian of Balance’ was not released.

That’s not a harmful effect.

“Behel—la ah ah!”

Towards the guy who was pushed back, he rushes towards it, even writing [Feral Eruption].

And slap the mace down.

Whoo-!

I didn’t use [Swipe].

‘Cause I’m sure I’ll avoid it anyway

Tadat-!

The guy who turns his body sideways and swings his sword at me.

But then, Misha, who was close behind my back, was aiming for his side.

Whoops!

A blade that was shallow but firmly pierced the skin.

It flinched and immediately looked at Misha, but she moved quickly and hid behind me.

‘nice.’

Exactly the way I expected it to move.

The guy clenched his teeth and mumbled.

“You are climbing without knowing the subject.”

Seeing the rave reviews popped up again, fortunately, it seems that there were no other problems with my tactics.

Therefore, the status quo was maintained.

“The body will regenerate due to the recovery (medium) effect.”

I’m in charge of the meat shield.

Dwalkie, Rotmiller, and Dwarf are ranged support.

And Misha would get electrocuted or dodge my attacks, etc. Whenever there is a gap, it jumps out and stabs the sword.

Kakak, squeak, pooh!

As the battle prolongs, the damage steadily accumulates.

“You guys, don’t even think about going back alive.”

In the end, he also used Essences and other numbered items unknown to the city.

But nothing changed.

The frequency of using potions only increased, but it was not enough to turn the tide.

Well, only the mouth survives.

‘… … Anyway, it was also level 9.’

The nine essences it possesses have been revealed.

The only known 3rd-grade Essence was the end.

After all, if you’re at level 3, it’s not an easy thing to get even if you’re at level 9, isn’t it?

“Bjorn! And that shiny blade is perfect!!”

I quickly sensed that the time had come to see the match.

The battle that lasted about 30 minutes confirmed all the cards he had. It is also possible for him to step back for a while and come back with the priest.

so that… … .

‘now.’

Now that the battle is getting longer, you should have gotten used to the current situation.

“… … !”

Dash with power and stretch out your hand.

Tadat.

He stepped back a little and widened the distance.

It wasn’t much different from the old psychopath.

If you want to get used to it, just move as much as you need.

Is this something like a habit only for the strong?

Thank you so much.

「The character has cast [Giantization].」

The body grew and the arms lengthened accordingly.

I grabbed his hair without letting go.

“… … !”

There was an urgency on his face that he had seen for the first time.

You probably didn’t know there was a [Giant], because I purposely didn’t use it until now.

It feels like all the hard work you’ve done so far is being rewarded.

‘It’s a red light.’

A red gem was emitting light in the traffic light ring of the guy who sneakily checked it.

therefore,

I shouted impatiently, lifting the mace.

“Behel—la ah ah ah ah ah!!!”

Just for one chance.

One of the conversions I had been waiting for silently.

That will be my super special move from today.

Namely, in a state of huge stats that exploded with wild eruption, as best as you can—

‘Swipe.’

With all my might, I slammed the mace towards the man’s head. I had the certainty that if I hit this one hit, it would all be over.

So, I could see it.

“Nundez Aunjo.”

All the changes that happened the moment his lips opened.

“The character’s soul power is insufficient.”

「[Giantization] will end.」

Loss of strength in the body

Also, the eye level goes down in an instant, and the field of view narrows.

Quang!

The mace swung normally and hit the floor.

“Khehehehe.”

At some point, the one who had escaped from my grasp spit up blood-stained vomit. And when I saw this, I only thought of one thing.

this damn bastard

What did you do now?

The answer came quickly.

‘Nimiral.’

A unique skill that all Yongin people are born with.

It is known that it has received the ‘Dragon’s Curse’ and can never be used.

「Regal Vagos has cast [Proverb: Silence of Souls].」

It was a dragon poem.

***

‘Guardian of Balance’.

This field effect makes the sum of basic stats equal.

But in the meantime, you have to fight one-on-one.

One rank 4 Essence was sealed.

Even the most difficult arc-je long sword had a strategy thanks to the ogre essence, and he used many consumable items obtained from the hidden room generously.

And even a special move aimed at the decisive timing.

Even a 9th-floor explorer thought this was enough to get rid of it.

very pathetic.

Despair can come to anyone at any time.

In short, getting a rare disease at a young age when you are in full swing. Accidents happen while going out to play, and a loved one leaves.

A big fire broke out at the relative’s house where he was living.

My mother, who said she would be with me tomorrow, suddenly disappeared.

All of which can happen in real life.

without any notice.

whether it’s raining or sunny.

unwittingly.

It has the nature to seek out someone.

like this moment.

“Hey.”

It spit bloody saliva on the floor.

And picks up the Akje longsword that fell to the ground.

but… … .

Pachi-chi-chit-!

Sparks splattered from the sword as if refusing his touch.

Frowning his brow, he forcibly grabbed the sword and put the sword into the subspace.

and… … .

Tub.

Slowly he stepped towards us.

I lifted the mace with difficulty.

The mace, which had felt as light as a feather until a moment ago, was as heavy as rebar.

Tub.

Information about this phenomenon came to mind without having to wrap my head around it.

“The character has fallen into a state of soul exhaustion.”

soul exhaustion.

A status abnormality that occurs when soul power reaches 0%.

Even in the game, there were a handful of things that I had encountered with this. Because even if the skill is fired with cancer, the soul power won’t drop to 0%.

「Temporarily decreases all stats by 70%.」

I realized.

“Suddenly, everyone is quiet, have you lost?”

New Plan A is a failure.

And the price is… … .

Well, you will find out now.

Puff-!

The new one is greatly pushed back by the guy’s kick.

I blocked it with both arms, but the shock echoed through my bones.

“Bjorn… … !”

Novel from https://noblemtl.net

Misha hurriedly swung her sword and ran, but it wasn’t enough to reach him.

Like a master of chess, he wrapped his arms around Misha and took the sword.

and… … .

“A garbage year.”

It kicked Misha’s stomach and blew it away.

Rottmiller’s crossbow just in time?

It was cut in two by the sword before it even touched.

“Only because of these things… … .”

He looks at us and whispers coldly.

At that one word, goosebumps rose, and my heart raced wildly as if it had been broken.

However, even in the midst of this, as a habit, the brain put together the given clues.

“Maybe, you don’t know.”

The guy isn’t in good shape either.

I vomited blood before. Anyway, if he had been 100%, my arm would have been broken already.

Looking at it, it seems that the sword cannot be used.

“Now, how many hours have I dumped into the ground?”

There are several positive aspects.

But, nonetheless, it will not be comparable to ours.

“Miss, Missha! Calm down!”

I heard a crying voice from behind, and he took one more step closer to me.

“Barbarian, don’t ask for sleep. Not even death can save you.”

It’s not just a scare statement.

Because I know what the only rank 3 essence he has.

Tub-

The situation is truly hopeless.

What should I do?

It would be difficult to run away like this.

It was that moment when my head was filled with only those thoughts.

「Real Warb Dwalky has cast the 8th grade attack magic [Ice Lance].」

An ice spear with the same power as before is fired.

two too.

After completing the ‘orbit adjustment’.

Fish woo woo-!

The guy hurriedly twisted his body.

And I barely managed to push the other one with my sword to avoid it. If it were normal, he would have blocked it with [Dark Curtain] or easily smashed it with a sword.

It was so hard to block the magic.

“… … !”

This I realized.

I can’t understand why I didn’t think of this right away… … .

Wizards do not use soul power.

In other words, there was no debuff caused by soul exhaustion.

That is to say.

“Yeah, I’ll have to kill you first.”

You must protect Dwalky.

“Everyone, calm down!!!”

If you want to live.
