Surviving With An Sss Rank Inventory

Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 14

Episode 14

– Boom – Bang –

The drums of battle echo throughout Evra Village.

The earth rang loudly as the monsters surrounding the village charged towards the defense line.

Monsters came from all directions. In particular, they flocked towards the village entrance.

The reason why monsters flock to the village entrance, which is obviously the most sturdy, is not because they are stupid.

Rather, it was because the Evra village troops had opened the village gate to lure them out.

At the guard post outside the fence, guards armed with iron armor took aim at the approaching monsters.

Monsters come in like waves.

However, the archers guarding their positions were waiting for the commander’s instructions without any hesitation.

“atmosphere!”

The guards camped outside the village rather than inside it are not just soldiers.

The Guard is a military organization.

They undergo intensive training to maintain security and prevent external threats.

In particular, the guards of the base village that are targeted by the wave.

They are estimated to have much higher military power than ordinary soldiers.

That way, you can stop the monster waves that keep happening.

“launch!”

The guard captain gave a signal to the monsters that were right in front of him, and the archers fired their iron-clad bows all at once.

Kagagak –

Despite the powerful firepower of the Ironclad Palace, the monsters that were coming in large numbers could not be stopped, but the guard captain sent a signal again as if it was natural.

“Shield soldier!”

The shield soldiers on the front lines faced the approaching monsters with huge shields.

Kwakwak!

Ujikkeun!

Unable to overcome their speed, the monsters in front of the shield began to crush each other to death.

Those who were lucky enough to survive were dealt with by the spearmen placed among the shield soldiers.

-Kerreuk

“What?”

Shields were erected tightly to stop the advance of monsters.

However, the monsters that came through an unexpected gap began to run rampant.

“this! “The third line is breached!”

“Shut it up!”

“spearman! Stay in line! we…!”

The guard captain raised his sword and immediately tried to support the scattered ranks.

Suddenly!

At that moment, the person who cut off the monster’s head appeared before him.

“Are you all?”

A mysterious Class A mercenary who recently appeared in Evra Village.

It was a common rumor that a mercenary wearing a white mask had helped the Luna Church to defeat the monster.

D.O. was measuring the timing as to when to intervene.

Dio left behind the guards who asked for his identity and swung his great sword once again.

There is no need to explain it to them. Because they have already proven through their actions that they are their allies.

Took!

The clunky but heavy sword strike trampled on the shield soldier and cut down the monsters trying to climb up in one go.

The front line was strengthened again by Dio’s intervention.

The most dangerous moment of the monster wave was the first advance.

Now that the advance of threatening monsters has been completely suppressed with shield soldiers, indiscriminate hunting will continue.

In Dio’s field of vision, he sees the guard commander shouting a signal to the rider.

“Wipe them all out!”

-Waaaa!

Tung-!

The shield soldiers all bounced off their shields, pushing away the monsters all at once and landing their swords.

And the guards’ counterattack follows.

Suddenly!

Deep!

The battle began with the monsters being pushed away at once.

Dio also stood still for a moment when he saw the guard captain running towards him just as he was about to fight with them.

“Thank you for your help. Are you the famous A-level mercenary Monte?”

“I just hold one hand.”

Dio simply answered his words and lifted the great sword to his shoulder.

The guard captain felt that the mercenary with his face covered was somehow familiar, but he had no time to worry about that right now.

“This place is dangerous, so the rule is to block it with just our guards…”

As the guard captain said, the entrance where you face the monster wave head-on was a dangerous place for the player.

The system never assigns an entrance to the player dealing with the monster wave.

Originally, the player would have been pulled out to the rear, saying it was dangerous.

However, the guard commander, who saw Dio demonstrating his ability by intervening at the right moment, nodded.

“Then please do me a favor. “Our elite will assist you, Monte.”

“It is an honour.”

It’s all according to plan.

Now you can officially take control of the important stage and take action.

Moreover, there is no need to die if the elite soldiers of Evra Village help you.

Now all Dio has to do is the ‘last hit’.

The reason Dio appeared and cut down monsters with a single sword was not because his attack power was so great.

Dio’s level is 50.

No matter how good he is at level 50, it is impossible to cut down a monster with a single blow.

However, for Dio, there is an item in the warehouse that makes the impossible possible.

—————

[Great Sword of Crushing]

Grade: Unique

Classification: Two-handed weapon

Level limit: 60

Required strength: 110

Attack power: 70

Special effect:

Target’s health, excluding boss monsters, is 10 100% additional damage when below %.

[Aurora Pendant]

Grade: Unique

Category: Necklace

Level limit: 50

Special effect: Lowers the level limit of other equipment items by 10.

[Lens of Confidence (Health)]

Grade: Magic

Category: Lens

Level Limit: 50

Special Effect: The health value of monsters below the seed grade is displayed.

—————

Dio, who has a max-level character, not only has the highest level equipment in his warehouse.

Rather, old characters like Dio have many items needed to develop many characters.

Equipment called so-called training items.

Among them, Dio selected the ‘Great Sword of Crushing’.

This equipment had a high grade and had the characteristic of having the strongest attack power among two-handed weapons of the same level.

Dio’s level is 50, but the level limit for the Great Sword of Crushing is 60.

However, through the ‘Aurora Pendant’, which lowers the equipment limit level, you can now wear a higher level weapon.

‘Thanks to you, I’ve reached a level where I can inflict damage to monsters in Evra Village.’

He clearly has the highest level of attack power in the level 50 range.

However, it is still not possible to defeat the Evra village monsters like chopping radishes.

So what you need is a ‘Lens of Confidence’ that allows you to see the physical strength of monsters.

This was the key item that allowed you to gain extreme benefits in the monster wave.

‘As expected, the one who ate me is the last one.’

Unlike the Forgotten Temple mission, the ‘party’ system with allies is not applied in Monster Wave.

In other words, it was a structure in which the player could only receive experience points by directly executing monsters.

Dio’s plan was for the guards, who had tremendous combat power, to select only the monsters with low stamina and finish them off.

‘It’s time to go on the rampage!’

This is why they entered the war only after stopping the advance of the monsters, rather than from the beginning.

What if you look broadly and use the lens of confidence?

For Dio, finding a monster that could be killed in one hit was a piece of cake.

Sigh-!

-Keeeeee!

Dio’s great sword suddenly popped out between the guards and pierced the Bug Reaper’s chest in one go.

“Are you going to stab me with that big of a sword?”

“Is the rumored Class A mercenary the author?”

The guards quickly recognized Dio’s presence.

At the same time, I couldn’t hide my surprise as he cut down monsters with incredible inaction.

“Ugh!”

A situation where one soldier is unable to come to his senses due to three werewolves going berserk.

Dio was not going to miss that moment.

‘A werewolf is perfect as a purifying plant.’

Boom-!

Dio’s high-flying ‘slash’ took the werewolf’s life in an instant.

[The werewolf was defeated.]

[3620 experience points were obtained.]

[The level increased.]

“Thank you… Ugh?”

The soldier who received help expressed his gratitude.

However, Dio, who had no time to receive greetings, immediately dragged the soldier by the collar and threw him to the floor.

Poseok-!

Dio jumps over the falling werewolf and strikes away Killer Bee’s body where the arrow was stuck.

Killer Bee, who was already injured, was unable to withstand Dio’s heavy greatsword and his entire body was crushed.

[Killer Bee was defeated.]

[3218 experience points…]

Dio moved the system message window to the side.

It was obvious that if I left it alone, it would ring all day during this monster wave.

“This is the commander’s order! “We will expand our position around Monte!”

“Wow!”

One of the elite soldiers assigned by the guard commander raised his flag and shouted, and the soldiers cheered.

Whether they misunderstood Dio’s strength or not, Dio only moved with thoroughly calculated thoughts.

While searching for his next prey, Dio came across a very tasty(?) target in his field of vision.

‘Bug Reaper’ and ‘Giant Locust’ entangled in an intense battle.

Dio, who discovered the guards being pushed back by the huge mantis and grasshopper monsters, kicked the ground.

‘The target is five. All remaining health is below 10%.’

Dio’s eyes quickly scanned the status of the insect monsters and he grabbed his great sword with all his might.

“Everyone get back!”

At Dio’s shout, the guards fighting the insects quickly retreated.

After securing space, Dio swung his great sword sharply at the monsters standing side by side.

Taboo tauk –

exactly 4 ticks. One monster per tick touched Dio’s great sword of crushing.

However, unlike the first time, the attack was too shallow.

The monsters were still alive and well, and the mercenaries who were watching them also had suspicious expressions.

“The attack was too shallow!”

“It’s dangerous!”

The guards warn Dio of danger. However, Dio jumped into the crowd of monsters without a moment of hesitation.

“You’re crazy!”

“We need to rescue them!”

-Keeeeeeek!

Despite the mercenaries’ horrified cries, Dio easily dodged the Bug Reaper’s sharp hand blade.

And then he dug into the crowd of monsters and thrust his great sword in.

The monster he was targeting was Killer Bee, which was smaller than the others.

Dio smiled as he took a picture of the body of Killer Bee, who had lost his wings and was stuck in the crowd.

‘5 ticks.’

Quang!

With a huge explosion, the monsters that touched Dio’s sword were all caught up in the explosion.

-Horrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

!

[Your level has increased.]

[Your level has increased.]

“It’s magic?”

“Demon swordsman? “The rumor that you received the Imperial Medal was true!”

Dio calmly walks out of the burning flames using the monster’s corpses as firewood.

People who saw that were astonished.

“after-.”

Dio smiled to himself as he lightly blew on the embers on his cloak to extinguish them.

The reason he visited a place where insect-type monsters were concentrated was because of the new ability of the skill ‘Slash’.

* * *

“I barely got it right.”

One day before the monster wave starts.

Dio was finally able to achieve 100 proficiency in the cutting skill against the Armored Turtle, who had no idea how many he had killed.

—————

[Proficiency level 100 achievement condition 1 released]

[Width] – Opening completed! (NEW)

MP consumption: 100

After using the skill, a mark is left equal to the number of successful attacks.

The user can activate additional skills in conjunction with cutting.

Activating skill width explodes the most recently marked mark (maximum 5)

Damage 150% fire damage per mark

Special effect: 50% knockback per mark

—————

First The skill ‘Slash’ that fulfilled the conditions is completely different from before.

Slash, which simply had a cooldown time, has evolved into a stack-type skill with the attribute of ‘fire’.

I can’t say it’s an incredibly good skill, but the fact that it has a fire attribute coefficient is useful in many ways.

Dio knew that there were many monsters in the monster wave whose weakness was fire.

He immediately figured out how to use the newly opened skill.

The stack is not just stacked on one target.

We have already confirmed with the Armored Turtle that if you use ‘width’ to create a series of explosions, its strength doubles.

The problem is that the ‘wide area’ damage, which is both the advantage and disadvantage of ‘width’, also applies to the caster.

“I have to stop by the warehouse.”
