Difference in Class (2)

Unlike the Minotaur in the first main quest, the Basilisk, the Sentinel in the second main quest, had its own name.

In fact, this is normal.

A sentinel is a monster that is set to be the pinnacle of that stage and cannot be killed at the time of receiving the main quest.

It’s expected for it to be named.

The Minotaur, which became a Sentinel, was never given a name because it suddenly appeared and it was just an expedient.

「I won’t take your life if you forfeit now.」

It is a monster commonly called the king of snakes, but if you listen to it, it sounds like a dragon.

They say location makes people, but does that also apply to monsters?

“I can’t do that. If I leave you alone, I think it will bother me later.”

「Oh, what do you mean by that?」

“It’s just an emotional feeling.”

Sentinels that dominate each stage are automatically liberated after a certain main quest.

No matter how many Sentinel appeared in the early main quest, it was a monster of the lowest C-class name or higher.

It’ll be annoying if they go around freely later.

‘Of course, my main purpose here is to eat all the rewards.’

First of all, I looked at the range of motion I could move.

When he opens his eyes, the Eye of Petrification is activated.

If that happens, all creatures reflected in those eyes will turn to stone.

In other words, as long as it’s out of the guy’s line of sight, you’re safe.

‘It’s easier said than done though…..’

Lizards are actually creatures with very good eyes.

Their viewing angle is also very wide, and depending on the type, there are also types of eyes that rotate 360 degrees.

Fortunately, the Eye of Petrification only activates in the front, so it’s not a big problem, but the annoying thing doesn’t change.

‘If only the elixir of immunity to abnormal conditions are sold in the DLC shop.’

Unfortunately, items available in-game are not sold in the DLC store.

‘Still, I’ve killed Basilisks countless times in my previous round….’

This was the first time I had met Orga, but I had killed ones from the ‘Basilisk’ tribe countless times in my previous round.

It will definitely work out somehow with experience.

“Hey.”

I tapped the weasel Minah’s little head with my finger and spoke to her.

“First of all, I’ll induce him to open his eyes, so in the meantime, get as close to him as possible.”

“Kyu?”

“And the moment the Eye of Petrification is activated, bite his eyeballs.”

“..!”

“It is not that difficult. It will only hurt him. But that alone can prevent the Eye of Petrification from activating.”

The weasel’s pupils widened.

Her little head swayed rapidly from side to side.

‘You don’t want to do it? Yeah, no. You need to do it.’

“I said it earlier. One of Basilisk’s weaknesses are weasels. You won’t get petrified okay?”

“Kyu-kyu!”

You don’t believe it?

Then you have to trust me.

“It’s okay.”

Poof!

I grabbed the weasel by the waist and tossed it in the direction of the basilisk.

“Kieng?!”

「!」

The weasel flew away with a strange noise, and Orga’s eyes flashed open.

Paat!

A gray flash occurred and Minah the weasel rolled across the floor.

Anyway, she didn’t have any sign of turning into stone.

And as soon as the Eye of Petrification ended, I ran to the other side and covered myself.

Since the Eye of Petrification cannot be used consecutively, it can be avoided if the timing is right.

I threw the dagger I had brought into Orga’s eyes.

Caang!

「Oh, to aim for my eye. You’re smarter than I though. Though, with your strength, it’s useless.」

The dagger that accurately hit the guy’s eyeball bounced off without inflicting even the slightest damage.

As expected, with my current abilities, I couldn’t destroy the Eye of Petrification.

‘That’s why…’

I brought her.

“…kyu.”

When the Eye of Petrification was activated, Minah, the weasel who thought she had turned to stone, moved quickly as soon as she recognized that she was fine.

“A weasel? It’s no use. It’s true that it’s one of my kind’s weakness according to folklores, but there’s no way an ordinary animal can be my opponent.”

Orga lifted his claws and slammed it down at the weasel.

Quaang

「?!」

If Minah were transformed into a normal weasel, she would have been crushed to death without being able to avoid it, but the weasel that Minah transformed into had the player’s abilities intact, so she evaded Basilis’s attack with fierce speed.

Above all, against Basilisk, weasels receive a strange buff.

Yeah, because it’s a game.

「Oh, oh? No, what?」

Orga, with a clear expression of bewilderment, opened his eyes again and activated the Eye of Petrification, but of course it didn’t work on the weasel Minah.

“Ha!”

Taking advantage of that gap, I also got out of cover and ran to Orga’s left side.

The top of the tower was not very wide, so Orga, who had a huge torso, couldn’t move quickly.

Kwachangchang!

Its tail shattered all the glass of in this observatory room and swung at me, but I ducked and avoided it.

“Bite it!”

At the same time, I reached for his leg.

I don’t mean to attack.

No matter how much I raised the current player’s stats to the maximum, Orga couldn’t get hurt even after a hundred attacks.

Kchak.

‘Great.’

A silver ring was attached to his leg, tightening it. It’s a training bracelet.

「Koooo!」

Minah’s teeth brushed Orga’s eyes, and Orga screamed.

The weasel’s teeth clearly tore the eye of petrification.

“Well done! One side is enough, come this way!”

“Kyuu~!”

One side of the Eye of Petrification disappeared, and its radius was extremely reduced.

‘Until here, it’s going as planned.’

What I need to do from now on is to endure its attack and move it to the designated location.

“You weren’t an ordinary weasel!”

“Of course. Where do you get a weasel in the middle of Seoul?”

Quaggagak!

His front claw almost scratched my left side.

He was ahead of me in strength and speed, but I was able to avoid it easily because I was familiar with the pattern of the basilisk.

‘But it’s a bit dangerous.’

The difference in basic ability was so great that there was a high possibility that I would not be able to dodge a large attack.

Doo doo doo!

「Darn it!」

“Now your true nature comes out. If you’re a lizard, you should act like a lizard.”

「I will never let you go!」

Orga’s movements intensified.

He must have been very angry with me.

Not only would his petrification’s evil eye, but his pride would have been seriously hurt as well.

To be hit by a player whose current stat limit is just F, anyone who sees this will laugh at him.

Kwak Kwa Kwak!

I circled in the direction of the wounded eye as best I could.

By doing so, I can act outside of the Eye of Petrification and the range of sight.

Weeing.

‘Nice.’

The cell phone in my pocket rang.

It means that Hyun-Kyun has finished preparing underground.

‘Then…Okay, now that Orga is starting to regain his cool as well.’

It seemed I had to change my ways.

‘Let’s see…. Great.’

I tapped the air and opened a window.

It is to know the exact location of ‘it’.

“hey.”

“Kyu-?”

The weasel that was hanging on my shoulder looked at me with a face asking what else is there.

“Do you remember what I said earlier? If I give you a signal….What I said.”

The weasel’s head nodded up and down.

Fortunately, she didn’t seem to have forgotten.

“Then go. When I raise my left arm from a distance, scream as loud as you can.”

“Kyi.”

The weasel nodded slowly, then jumped off my shoulder and ran away.

Boooooong!

“Eak.”

Orga’s tail passed over my head as I was caught off guard.

「You’re trying to do something again.」

“Because I can’t win without being cunning.”

「It’s funny. No matter what you do, you can’t beat me.」

Orga thumped and took a big step forward.

This guy was driving me slowly.

「I commend you for preparing such a weasel. I also know that you have built up stats that are overwhelmingly stronger than other players. I wonder how you’ve already strengthened yourself to that level…. Only!」

Thump, thump. Kuaang!!

He turned his head toward me as I turned to the left, opened his mouth wide, and tried to bite me, but I quickly rolled away.

「Even My lowest stat is D rank. You can’t win no matter what you do.」 (T/N: Stat as in strength, magic, etc.)

Orga, who regained his composure, twisted his body fiercely and attacked me with his arms.

His fastest ever attack.

「That’s the ‘difference in class’.」

Chow!

This attack is unavoidable.

No matter how experienced you are, there are limits. His agility is probably C rank.

No matter how hard I struggle as an F rank, I have no choice but to be cought up in the end.

The reason I was able to escape so far was because the top floor was difficult for him to move, and he injured one eye, limiting his vision and losing his cool.

But there was obviously a gap that even that couldn’t fill.

I can’t win no matter what

It’s not strange that he thinks so.

However.

“That’s too much.”

I raised my left arm.

[───!!]

The cry of an animal hit my ears.

That’s right, the crow of a chicken.
