Chapter 60
Episode 60
[Notice: An intense mana reaction will occur from the Lake of Oblivion!]
[Notice: Warning! Warning!]
[Notice: Powerful monsters appear! Be careful not to die in battle!]
“Huh.”
Damian closed his mouth at the same time as the lake of oblivion swirled.
It was such a huge reaction that the ground shook.
At first glance, it seems as if the water in the lake is alive and moving.
Thousands of tons of water gushing to its fullest form, a monster with the face of a gigantic human woman coming to the ground.
[Mutation Siren]
A siren that can be found in deep lakes or reefs. Using a delicate female voice, she draws human men to the water’s edge. It seems to have completely lost its previous form after being mutated by an unknown force.
Race: Fairy
Type: Named
Special Note: Compared to normal Siren, they have much higher stats and skills, so be extra careful when dealing with them.
“Mutation… Siren?”
oooh oh oh oh!
And Damian twisted the corner of his mouth intentionally at the azure face looking down at him with an emotionless expression as he watched the system message window appearing in front of him.
The < Siren > he knew was a mermaid with a human upper body and a fish lower body, but it was nothing more than a noble monster that sucked in human spirit with a beautiful voice and a naked body.
It was because the monster in front of his eyes was so small that he could never think of it as a siren, and only its face was shaped like a snake.
“This is a siren…? It just looks like an elemental water queen…?”
“What is that again, master!”
“Uh… a monster?”
When Moongchi asked, Damian blurted out his words as if he was lost.
It was because of the sudden ferocity of the mutant sirens.
If he didn’t show any reaction just a while ago, it seems that he’s emitting ferocious force as if he’d swallow Damian at any moment.
[Notice: WARNING! Warning!]
[Notice: The mutant siren prepares a powerful attack!]
[Notice: Be careful not to die from the attack!]
“…!”
And Damian saw the system message reminding him to be careful of death and at the same time, the mutated siren’s mouth, which had been tightly closed, was torn like a beast’s jaw.
I couldn’t help but flinch when I saw the energy light source condensing like a dragon spitting out its breath.
[Mutated sirens]
[Hydro Pump]
Kwah Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah—!!
A beam-shaped breath was fired that shattered everything it touched as if it were shot from a high-pressure catapult.
“Oh shit…!”
When the mutant siren’s breath was fired, Damian spat out a curse.
It was an attack that was avoided by a narrow car.
The moment the mutant siren fired the hydro pump, Damian instinctively activated < Golden Rabbit Sandals > and threw himself away.
< Golden Rabbit Sandals >, which had been saved for durability, allowed Damian to get out of the realm of the hydro pump.
“Why are your pee feet so long?!”
Kwakwagwagwang!
Even though he had no choice but to raise < Sixth Sense > again due to the offensive of the hydro pump, which did not seem to stop, regardless of the expected result of avoiding the mutated siren’s attack.
‘I can’t miss even one…!’
bang! bang! bang! bang! bang!
As Damian crossed the lake with lightning-like movements, water cannons came out from the body of the mutant siren.
Spherical swirling water bombs.
The body, made up of a water column tens of meters in diameter, fired water cannons along Damian’s trail as if it had eyes.
Damian couldn’t even approach the sporadically dropped water cannons, let alone change his stance.
‘What a revealing pattern like this…’
If it represents the strength of an elite monster, it usually displays a tricky pattern by being given a few characteristics with a certain effect, and then exerts a higher level of power according to the combination of those characteristics.
It was the fear of named monsters such as the mutant siren right in front of them that displayed their < intrinsic abilities > that were not bound by the characteristics of attack-defense-crowd control.
“Even though it is unfinished… This is the evidence of my faith and the product of my research. Killing one of you won’t be a problem.”
“…!”
Crunchy! Dduduk!
As Damian moved away from the mutant siren, it pulled out another arm bone from its right side.
It was an arm that was no different from that of a skeleton.
Although he wasn’t paying attention because he was dealing with the mutant siren, if there was anything different from before, it was that he was moving his two arm bones like a spinning machine.
‘…Marionette?’
So, Damian saw that it was assimilated with the darkness on the other side of the lake of oblivion and stood there, not even moving, let alone running away.
Suddenly, I could vaguely feel a hypothesis passing through my mind.
Watching the puppeteer of an acrobatic troupe control a marionette puppet, not moving a single step from the spot, with only two arms bobbing.
The reason why it did not directly attack itself must have been to control something.
“okay. I get it roughly.”
“What do you mean, master?”
“That the two of you are one body.”
When Munchchi asked, Damian narrowed his eyes and said.
It was the moment when speculation hardened into certainty.
The moment its finger bones moved, < Sixth Sense > showed a subtle change in the color of mana in the air.
Damian could notice that the mutated siren’s movement changed drastically whenever it took on the same color as the mutated siren.
It was exactly as I told Mungchi.
In other words, the mutant siren is not an independent entity summoned from the lake of oblivion as a medium, but must be kept under its control continuously using some kind of magic or trick.
“Unfinished… is that what you meant?”
Fuck!
And Damian was able to intuit that the water cannon bombardment pattern was about to begin again as he watched the mutant siren swirling around with a lot of water in his body.
It was the moment when the strands were roughly grasped on how to deal with him.
‘The level of the mutant siren cannot be measured. Moreover, it is a named monster that you cannot be sure of whether you can subdue it or not. In the first place, the difficulty level is different. But…’
If there must be a subject that manipulates it, and if that subject is in a state where he has to focus entirely on manipulation.
Breaking the bond between the two might itself be an odds in this seemingly hopeless battle.
“Blood Impulse Corruption Potion Dark Green’s Blessing Fire Feast.”
Kururrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
As the mutant siren raised the water from the lake again, Damian muttered.
It was a quick casting that made me wonder if it was memorized.
Demian’s two unique skills and two item effects combine to create a multicolored aura over his body.
– Ah… ah… ah…
Boom! pop! pop! pop! pop!
And when the mutant siren stuttered his lips with an expressionless face and fired dozens of water cannons over the lake of oblivion, Damian disappeared as if he had never done that and began rushing at high speed.
‘now-!’
Shyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Although the water cannons shot by the mutant siren boasted a speed so fast that each one of them could not be easily avoided.
Damien vomited the spirit of chasing the colors of < Sixth Sense >, which had already been opened to the maximum, with his dynamic eyesight, avoiding all of them with just control.
“Do I look like hot pants with ice legs, you bastard?”
– …?
As Damian avoided the water cannons and closed the distance, the mutant siren tilted his head.
It was as if he had suddenly become a different person.
Just a few minutes ago, it looked like it was the flagship of the pouring attack, but Damian, who was rushing towards him now, was radiating ferocious momentum like a beast… “35 degrees 22 degrees 47 degrees 16 degrees 27 degrees 74 degrees
. 81 degrees…!”
pop! Perong! pop!
While memorizing the angles of all the water cannons pouring within 90 degrees in front of him, Damian felt like a player in a shooting game boasting extreme difficulty.
The rush of joy was a bonus.
The thrill of high-level control and the sense of danger that you might die if you accidentally brush against it.
“Is this why… I can’t stop playing this game…?”
Shyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
And with mana condensed in both hands, Damian felt engulfed in a trance as if he had inhaled drugs.
“Caught.”
– ah…?
As if performing an acrobatics, Damian dug between the water cannons and spurred on the siren’s head with a ray of golden light.
[Dancing flame]
[Corrupting Potion] × 22
Roar!
At the same time, it was a bonus that blue flames rose from both of Damian’s hands.
– ah…!
Kwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa!
Damian hit the naturalized right in the middle of the face, and the beat changed, and the siren’s face exploded.
It was an unexpected counterattack.
Demian’s naturalization, which is not simply a flame that inflicts physical damage, but has enough magical power to burn up disembodied ghosts at once.
Demian’s naturalization shimmered in a size large enough to brightly illuminate the lake of oblivion, and boasted the power to burn away all the specters that had previously blocked his path.
[Notice: Mutant Siren’s armor has been < Corroded >!]
[Notice: Mutant Siren’s defense has been reduced!]
[Notice: Mutant Siren has been < burned >!]
[Notice: Mutant Siren’s health is constantly Decrease!]
Damian’s naturalization was not simply the one-plus-one effect of < Corruption Potion > and < Flame Feast >, but he was wearing enough dirty debuffs to exert a synergy of more than 1+1=3.
“Uh… not even scratched.”
Kururrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Although it was regrettable that despite Damian’s attack, the mutant siren’s face swirled and the battered face was restored at once.
“It’s a bunch—!!”
“I got it, master!”
As Damian fell and sighed, the bundle flew up into the air.
It happened at the same time that he attracted the attention of the mutated siren.
Although it did not boast enough damage to instantly die, it was naturalized that it was assumed that there would be some damage.
However, the naturalization was less powerful than expected, and it seemed so insignificant that it was impossible to even know how much physical strength was cut.
It didn’t seem to hurt at all.
But…
“It’s no use, heretic. You guys…?”
“Beep beep beep beep!!”
When the yellow-colored first chicks suddenly appeared with a dainty sound, the one on the other side of the lake had no choice but to stand out as well.
Before he knew it, the new chicks had not even circled the entire lakeside, and he and Byun were aiming something at the siren.
“well. Whether it’s really useless… you’ll know once you get hit.”
Tadak!
And the moment when Damian, who had landed on the floor, raised the corner of his mouth towards it while spreading his palms to show some kind of magic.
[Dancing flame] × 125
squeak!
The < Flame Lizard Bracelet > on Damian’s wrist shattered in white, consuming all of his durability and beginning to entwine the new chicks in the lake of oblivion with flame.
“Boom.”
It was a scare fire.
