Episode 733 System Optimization
"Master, it's just ahead!"
The voice of the little Lori in black came from her head, but it was a little unclear, and it seemed that the distance between the two sides was already a little far.
"Got it! Show me the way. ”
Xia no longer hid his figure, set up his sword posture, and the tip of the sword rushed forward.
"Wow! Wow! The branches and leaves kept clashing against her body, and in a short time she sprang forward for a long distance, and then another sprint, and so on.
It wasn't long before she came to the bottom of a cliff where she saw Stephanie flying in the air.
At the same time, an unpleasant movement came.
It was like something heavy falling from a great height and slamming into the ground.
However, the thing seemed to be a little wet, and she even felt some small water stains splash in front of her, and hurriedly swung her sword to block it, not daring to let these water stains stick to her body.
"Uh-uh-"
A movement that sounded like a moan~ groan and a low roar sounded, and a black figure climbed up from under the cliff in front of him.
The figure was covered in jet-black slime, and there was a large humanoid stain on its feet, apparently the one that had just fallen to the ground.
“…… Uh-uh! ”
As if sensing the aura of a human, the figure covered in black slime slowly turned around.
What an ugly face.
Not only are the facial features distorted, the mouth is full of filth, and the position of the eyes is only two black holes, and the eyeballs are not visible at all; The nose appears to have rotted and flattened, with occasional sizzling gasps from where it should be.
"Stephanie, close the message panel and fight with me!"
Xia said in a deep voice, dragging the sword behind him.
This is a starting hand that maximizes the power of the slash. Once the power bursts, you can round the sword body and slash it at the top of the opponent's head.
"Hint!"
The little Lori in black was just about to close the system information bar, when suddenly a system prompt popped up.
"Since your class level has reached the stage cap and you have a permanent passive buff, the Pupil of Insight, the system will optimize the detection information in a specific area."
"Optimization Start ......"
A progress bar starts flashing in the background of the boss's information bar. Swiped from left to right at a blistering speed.
"Optimized!"
It took less than half a second for that progress bar to disappear.
The place where the BOSS information was originally displayed changed:
"Deathwalker (Wild Boss)"
LV:102
Boss Type: Undead
Attribute: Dark
Body type: Small
Speed: Very slow
Boss Trait: Active Attack
Attack: 1209
Stamina: 15000
Defense: 2021
Magic Resistance: Elemental 65 Dark 88 Holy 26 Arcane 73
Attack: Venom Bite / Torn Claw / Venom Splash
Attack Level: 18
Defense Level: 22
Seeing this familiar data-based panel, Xia was stunned for a moment.
"What's going on, isn't the system no longer judging boss-level enemies with ratings like ABCDS?"
"Instead of using this intuitive attribute value?"
She glanced at the black monster slowly walking towards her, and as written in the message, the boss walked extremely slowly, like a dying old man with inconvenient legs.
"Although there is more information, there is no kind of narration-style detailing, do I want to actually try and discover it myself?"
Xia calmed down. As he waited for the other party to approach him, his figure suddenly exploded, and his sword in both hands slashed at the head of the Death Rambler from top to bottom.
"Bang!"
The blade slashed more than an inch deep, and the black slime that covered the top of the head was blasted away by the powerful impact, revealing a bare head.
"It's so hard!"
Thinking that this boss has 2021 defense points and a defense level of up to 22, she can't help but feel a little numb in her scalp.
The monster shook its head and stepped back, standing there swinging back and forth in an eerie motion for a moment. He stepped forward again, reaching out his hands to grab her neck.
"Get out of here!"
The silver-haired girl didn't dare to let it catch herself. Mustered up the strength to slash again, this time aimed at its legs.
The Deathwalker's left leg was immediately unable to stand after being hit by the sword, and fell to the left side of his body, like a big soaked fish, and fell to the ground with a "snap", but after struggling for a long time, he quickly got back to his feet.
By this time, the mucus on that leg had dissipated. Revealing dark green skin, the appearance is even more disgusting.
"Master, you are so amazing!"
The little Lori in black showed a look of surprise.
Now she didn't dare to throw herself into her master's arms like when she first met before, but she still flew a figure 8 in the air to express her happiness and joy.
"Awesome?"
As everyone knows, Xia's mood is extremely depressed now.
"I finally brought out a good weapon from the world of memory. As a result, I met two bosses in a row, both of which were hard-shelled turtles, can't you let me be majestic and cut it to pieces in a few clicks? ”
She held a lot of breath in her heart.
"Natsu, you actually hurt it?"
At this time, Wendy and Xuexi had already arrived, and they looked surprised to see the Death Rambler's slightly staggering walking movements.
"Isn't this guy amazing?" Xia asked a little strangely:
"The attack is single, and it goes slowly, just a little harder......"
"When did you have such a powerful sword?"
The vampire girl noticed the dazzling transparent sword in her hand, and even though it slashed through the black body of the Deathwalker, the beautiful blade didn't even get a single stain.
This sword is indeed eye-catching, but in the previous battle with Atwood, in her opinion, it was just useless, so she didn't particularly care.
"Aha, ahaha...... Just by chance, by chance. ”
Natsu had no way to explain the origin of Valrhona's sword. Laughed dryly and blended over.
Luckily, Wendy didn't mean to ask, and she watched with a solemn expression as the Deathwalker approached this side again, reaching out and shooting out a dark red glow that hit the rotten face.
Unlike the slash of the holy sword, the light containing the power of the vampire's origin only shook its head slightly, and it couldn't even slow down a little.
"Void Flames!!"
Xue Qian stepped on her high heels. The ground burst into flames, and from the ground beneath her feet to the Deathwalker's face, it exploded in the night.
"Crackle, crackle......"
The extremely hot flames burned the slime on the monster's body, producing a popping sound.
But the Deathwalker's body soon emerged from the flames, and continued to approach the three of them with staggering steps, unhindered by the flames.
As it walked, the flames on its body became smaller and smaller, and finally all of them were annihilated by the slime. Aside from the occasional puff or two of green smoke, there was no damage at all.
"I thought this guy was getting weaker, but it doesn't seem to be the case."
Wendy said with an ugly face:
"It's not just that sword...... Your strength seems to have suddenly increased a lot, and when you hit that skull just now, you were obviously not so powerful, did you take any forbidden medicine? Let your strength improve so much in a short period of time. ”
"Maybe it was after killing Atwood in seconds that I had some kind of realization."
How could Xia tell the truth, and improvised a seemingly passable reason:
"After coming out of the mysterious world of memory, I may have gained something that I didn't know about......"
She explained. Without hesitation, he launched the Nameless Sword Technique.
This time she used a ferocious straight stab, and there was a sharp flash in the dark night. For the first time, the holy sword actually pierced the body of this boss-level monster.
A sharp blade was hidden in the chest, and the tip of the sword seemed to touch the heart that was no longer beating inside.
"Uh-uh-uh!"
After being wounded, the Deathwalker reached out to grab Natsu's face, but the holy sword was actually a great sword, and the blade was so long that it couldn't touch the other person's skin.
"Sneer......"
The Virgo's holy sword finally revealed its power at this moment. The purifying light began to wreak havoc in its body, and Natsu, who was closest to it, smelled a scorching smell in his nose, and hurriedly held his breath to prevent poison.
"Click!" "Click!"
In order to keep the terrifying thing from entering his heart, the Deathwalker writhed his body desperately, his ribs and blades clashing.
Maybe that corrupt heart didn't do much to it. But a certain fear that was aroused from the bottom of his heart still made it retreat.
"Isn't this guy an undead, and he can be afraid?"
Xia looked in the opposite direction and retreated, blocking the light of the holy sword with his two arms, and left the range of the light step by step.
"No, this guy is undead!"
She suddenly remembered the introduction in the system information:
"The undead cannot become self-aware until they have evolved to a higher stage;"
"But there are many undead who are human beings themselves, but like the lich, they have transformed their flesh ~ body in some way!"
"Deathwalker...... It's a sapient creature! ”
For this kind of retreat that should not appear on the undead, she began to be vigilant in her heart.
After discovering the terrifying defense and defense level of the other party, she originally thought that all she wanted was to attract the attention of the boss, and then lure the other party away and leave the forest far away.
But now that she knows that the other party may have self-awareness, the silver-haired girl immediately changed her mind, she must completely destroy this terrifying thing!
"Even some animals with very low intelligence have a strong sense of revenge, let alone such an extremely aggressive monster? It seems that even Wendy and Snowy can't deal with it, what if it comes to the camp again in my absence? ”
"Venom Splattering looks like a long-range attack, maybe this thing will be used at any time, and it's too dangerous to keep such a guy wandering around!"
Thinking of this, she turned to Wendy and said:
"You seem to have seen this monster before, is it just one, or is it moving in groups?"
By this time, the Deathwalker had gradually departed from the area shrouded in the light of the Holy Sword and began to flee into the depths of the forest. It doesn't move fast, but there are so many trees around it that it won't be long before it disappears completely into the dark jungle.
"How can there be a lot of such monsters."
Seeing it leave, Wendy breathed a sigh of relief, put her hand down and replied:
"But I'm sure it's not an isolated entity, because it's very slow. It has been seen in both Area 4 and Area 12, indicating that there are at least 2 of them. ”
"I can't stay here anymore."
Xue Qian looked a little annoyed, and said in a low voice:
"Our enchantment is no defense against such an enemy, and the Deathwalker is extremely hateful, and often when a prey escapes from its grasp, it will never-ending chase and slaughter creatures throughout the region; And it likes to wander around, and once it appears somewhere, it quickly becomes a forbidden place for life. ”
"That's the case. I'm going to get rid of it once and for all. ”
Natsu touched his dizzy head.
Nameless sword skills are nirvana, and she has used them more than once when she fights against the skull boss, and she used it again just now, this kind of consumption is nothing to her at her peak, but now it's a little difficult.
That's why she's been upgraded to LV90...... If it's still the original level, I'm afraid it's down now.
"Stephanie, get some food for everyone." I felt like my stomach was a little empty, and God knows how long it had been since I had actually eaten. She was going to gain some stamina before chasing the monster.
Anyway, at the speed of a Death Rambler, and with the foul stench on his body. I can't escape her tracking.
"Master, here you go."
The little Lori in black took out some of the food that Xia likes to eat from her skirt and flew over and handed it to her.
"Here you go, stinky vampire." Then she throws Wendy a can from afar, and the vampire girl doesn't take it, but lets the can roll to the ground.
However, this eccentric little Lori gave Xue Qian a good-looking sandwich bread. The possessed Edith is not strong as a magician, and still needs some nutritional supplements.
"Stephanie, why are you so rude?"
Natsu frowned, walked over and picked up the can, and put it on the stone next to it. Then he gave half of the food to the vampire girl.
"Who made her always bully me while her master was away."
The little Lori in black also knew that she was doing something wrong, but she refused to apologize, so she stuck to Xia's side angrily and made a big grimace at Wendy.
"You should know what I need."
Wendy ignored the artifact Lori, flipped the food in her hand, sat on the rock where Natsu put the can, turned her head, and stared at Natsu's snow-white neck with blood-colored pupils.
"That...... I'd better bear with me a little and wait until I get back. ”
Being looked at by her like this, Xia felt a little chilled, and subconsciously touched his neck.
She's not in good shape right now, and if she gets blood-sucked again, something may go wrong.
Whether it's a magician or a swordsman, you need a clear brain, and stable hands and feet, and falling off the chain at a critical moment often means death, even if you love the vampire girl very much, now you can only be wronged.
"Hey, master, a lot of skills can be used."
The black-clothed little Lori did her job and began to check the system that had produced some unknown changes, and found that some special skill icons, including nameless sword skills and elemental awakening, lit up.
"Where's the Light of Transfer, can you use it?"
Natsu put a hand on the back of Wendy's hand and stroked it gently, asking in her mind.
"It doesn't seem to work yet......
The little Lori in black replied in frustration.
"Less of this".
The vampire girl withdrew her hand, seemingly dissatisfied with her answer.
Xia eats quickly, and now that all the food has been settled, he can only smile embarrassedly in the face of this situation, nod at Xue Qian, pick up his sword and walk to Wendy's side.
"The affairs of the camp are hard for you, I'll go and solve that hidden danger first."
She cheekily hugged Wendy's waist with one hand, and then shrank back before the other person got angry.
"Number 1, number 2, number 3, show me up!"
After summoning the three Dark Spirit Knights, she whispered a message to Wendy, and chased the Vampire Maiden in the direction of the Death Rambler's departure, with a reluctant look.
I had just run a few steps when a cold voice came to my head:
"The people of the New World have investigated the origin of the Death Rambler, and its lair seems to be inside Lake Mendos, a large lake connected to the Sea of Fog, where a large number of waterways lead there, and you had better kill it before it dives into the water...... Otherwise, let's come back honestly. (To be continued.) )
