Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian - Chapter 139

Episode 139 Awakening (2)

“[Ogre Essence] permeates the character’s soul.”

“Muscle strength increases by +140.”

“Exorcism increases by +80.”

“Physical resistance increases by +40.”

「All resistance increases by +10.」

「Natural regeneration power decreases by -40.」

「Cognition decreases by -20.」 As

soon as I opened my eyes, I checked my watch.

Fortunately, little time passed.

I was just in case, so I hurriedly got rid of it.

“…….”

I looked at my colleagues sleeping for a while and took out my knife.

Then, as if sawing, he drew on the back of his hand.

square square square.

As I exerted my strength and went back and forth about ten times, a single drop of blood flowed out.

Looking at the wounds that did not heal, it was only then that I realized it.

The character’s concept really changed in an instant.

Kwak.

Clench your fist into the air.

The change in body was clearly perceptible, but not as stark as when taking the Orc Hero Essence.

It’s not that I can’t understand it.

Not only has the vampire essence disappeared, but ‘Guardian of Balance’ is still being applied.

‘I’ll be able to feel exactly how much my strength has increased only after I go outside.’

I had time to calculate the profit and loss for a while watching the other side of the passage illuminated by torches.

‘Ogre……’

Ogre.

A 3rd grade monster with stats and skills that makes it impossible for a tanker to fantasize. However, its essence was not included in my final composition.

It was more of a practical reason than a non-conformity decision.

A grade 3 monster that is still difficult to catch.

Besides, out of 7 active skills, you have to come up with the color you want?

The difficulty of obtaining it is too high…….

In terms of ‘Defense’, there is a 4th grade monster ‘Steel Giant’ that is more efficient than this one.

‘In contrast, the Steel Giant has the disadvantage of not being able to use weapons.’

In the end, it was a matter of taste at this point.

Do you take care of deals or focus on tanks a little more?

The performance difference between the two Essences was small, so in most of the play, I chose the extreme tank.

It was judged that it would be more reasonable to raise dealers by trying to eat ogre essence.

Indeed, the judgment was correct.

As a result, I was able to open the original version of the ‘Door to the Abyss’ that no one else had reached.

But…

‘Strictly speaking, ogres are better.’

Changing the upbringing method flexibly is the beauty of this game and also the skill of the player.

In the first place, what was the final combination and this was not decided in this way.

All blanks except for the core integer.

We decided on three or four candidates with similar performance for each role, took the one that came out first and moved on to the next.

What I wanted was to clear the game, not the completion of one main character.

‘It’s a little disappointing that it’s not a yellow essence, but it won’t be enough to change the entire training method…’

I’m a little confused.

Obviously, in the best case, I changed the vampire essence in anticipation of the ‘steel giant’, but should I say that the result came out beyond that?

‘What are the alternative conditions? If the essence of the vampire guardian is confirmed, is it possible to be promoted to 2nd level?’

pure doubt.

Curiosity as a gamer wells up, but he tries hard to suppress his thoughts.

‘This is 30%. No, maybe even 40%?’

Reconsidering the survival rate according to the changed situation, I draw a new combat method in detail in my head.

To raise the possibility even a little more.

What I can do even at this moment.

‘……I’d rather take off the armor. There’s no way I’ll wait for him to prepare.’

Like a swordsman sharpening his sword the night before a decisive battle.

Refine your plan and find better options.

‘The penalty for cognitive decline isn’t as severe as I thought. If the ratio of muscle strength is this high, there will be no way to be pushed back by force.’

The detailed pieces of the plan fit together one by one to form a single form.

But the more you do, the faster your heart beats.

pounding-!

The future is like broken glass.

No one can perfectly predict the outcome.

Just like when the Hierarchy Lord was summoned.

But rather, that’s why…….

Exciting-!

Is there anything more you can do?

Is it possible that there is something I have misunderstood?

As if dealing with a test paper that depends on life, we do not compromise and worry over and over again.

how long has it been like that

“Bjorn.”

Rotmiller wakes up and quietly calls my name.

It meant it was time.

I hurriedly woke my colleagues up and checked my watch.

[09 : 47]

About 4 hours after taking a break.

In other words, it was the time when about 38 hours remained until the labyrinth was closed.

“It’s faster than expected. It’s clear that they have a way to track us.”

Rotmiller’s advice was passed over in one ear.

It was information I already knew……. If

there was information I needed to engrave into my head, it wouldn’t be like that.

‘Yes, it takes four hours from there to here.’

All the prerequisites for New Plan A have been met.

So…

turbug.

Now all we have to do is toss the dice.

***

trudge.

Footsteps blooming in the dark at regular intervals.

It comes towards us as if strangling our necks.

slowly so as not to rush.

Turbuck-

It wasn’t long before the guy entered the line of sight.

By the way, the companion is a polite poor uncle.

Blood is pouring out of one of his eyes, frowning as if he was looking for us and was sacrificed again.

“It’s too cruel.”

“Why did the author do that to a colleague…”

Everyone frowned at the bizarre sight, but I silently let out a sigh of relief.

Hu also left the old man in front of the portal.

If we had come together, there would have been no answer.

It was a car that I had been thinking about.

Turbuck-

The guy stops walking at an appropriate interval.

And a heavy silence came.

“What, are you all alive?”

The guy smiles lightly and speaks.

It was far from the reaction he had expected.

I thought it was not strange at all to stab him with a sword first.

what?

“I thought someone must have died because my strength suddenly returned.”

Those words relieved all discomfort.

That’s why.

‘Somehow he was strangely calm.’

He hadn’t noticed yet.

The fact that I swallowed ‘controlled wishes’.

After hearing something, I thought that he could think like that.

Until the words follow.

“Ah yes. Have you eaten the essence of Bykundus?”

Even in the midst of this, the guy who presents new possibilities.

Somehow I laughed.

‘I didn’t know that this bastard would do the same.’

Because of the Guardian of Balance, even if 8 people shared the numbers, the increase was incomparable to that of Baikundus.

This guy must have felt it clearly.

But…

I’ve already decided on the answer I want, and I’m looking for evidence to prove it, but I’m attaching it.

‘The dragon slayer Regal Vagos.’

I wrote one more phrase about him in my head.

Surprisingly, this guy was a positive guy.

But did something sinister in my laughter?

“……You must have kept the barbarian oath, right?”

He erases his relaxed attitude and asks me.

I stared at him without answering.

An expression of the meaning of what to say.

But it seems that even this wasn’t enough for him.

“Where’s the thing?”

he asks me again

This time, his voice is tinged with annoyance.

He denied it because of the sunk cost, but he himself is slowly feeling it.

The truth that he may have been fooled.

“…Could it be that you wrote it already?”

Finally he asked and I answered.

“Oh, it wasn’t intentional.”

“……what?”

“sorry. I was just bored so I messed around and it broke.”

Despite my sincere apology, he trembled like an aspen tree.

He also slowly accepted the truth.

A warrior’s oath.

The savages, who have only one honor, regard my life as a sacrifice. ” I didn’t intend to keep my oath

from the beginning.”

A tingling sense of life could be felt through my skin. But, like a K-barbarian from Korea

,

I proudly straightened my shoulders.

“Ah. So I won’t say I’m sorry—”

“Die.”

When I heard the voice, I could already see the sword at close range.

In that brief moment, I’d narrowed this distance. While

provoking him, I was watching his every action on the inside, so I reacted in time. I was able to do it.

Squeeze.

Raise the shield.

And instead of blocking it…

Kwaang-!

Strike the sword face as hard as you can.

This is a countermeasure that I created while simulating a battle with him for the rest of the time.

The name is Ark . “Isn’t it my longsword?

Even if I try to block it, it will only pierce a hole in my shield.

“Dwalky!”

As soon as I shouted as I pushed him away with overflowing muscle power.

The magic I had briefed in advance was fired.

“Rioll Warb Dwalky is a level 7 attack. I cast the magic [Frozen Storm].”

Fortunately, it seems like I finished all the magic spells while we were talking and wasting time

.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaa ! It was cold enough to give chills even after

being out of the room.

Ironically, however, I felt a strange heat at the end of the blizzard.

It was obvious even without looking at it

.

Furnace].

One of the abilities of the lava giant, a 4th grade monster.

A buff-type skill that becomes immune to cold and fire damage when activated and greatly increases the body value. I

was a little worried because I was informed about it 10 years ago.

You still have that.

I tore the scroll without any regrets.

It

was obtained after defeating one of the mid-bosses, ‘Argos’, and it should have been used to catch the Minotaur.

「 Target designation complete.」

The ‘Essence of the Lava Giant’ possessed will be sealed for 48 hours.」

As soon as the scroll disappeared, the heat on the other side of the aisle also ended.

OK One level 4 essence was cut.

What was the guy like?

Shaaaaa-!

Soon the blizzard that froze the entire aisle lifted.

The guy stood still.

Behind the translucent black curtain like a window without any damage.

“Did you just believe this?”

He looked at us and smiled mischievously.

If you thought that this surprise attack was a conversion move, there was nothing you couldn’t understand.

But what about this

‘I never thought things would work out this well.’

The skill he just used is [Dark Veil].

And this skill doesn’t exist in the list of essences Rotmiller told me about.

In other words, one of the variables that were guarded against was confirmed.

‘The remaining unidentified integers are now one or two.’

Of course, you may have other number items, so you have to keep an eye on them too—

wheeik-!

Before I had time to organize my thoughts, his new model was fired at me again.

I tried to hit the sword face with a shield like before, but he is also an intelligent body that learns.

Whoo-!

The shield cuts through the air.

When I recognized it, I felt a slight pain and a foreign body sensation in my shoulder area.

Awesome!

Upon checking, the Ak-made longsword that had cut the titanium shield like tofu had dug into his forearm.

about 3 cm.

“……?”

The moment when each other’s gaze crosses.

There was a look of bewilderment in the man’s eyes.

I was planning to cut off the whole arm, but why did it only get stuck this far?

The answer is simple.

‘What is my physical resistance level now?’

Ogre’s passive skill [Ironskin].

A skill with insane performance that doubles physical resistance and additionally doubles physical resistance for slash attacks.

As a ‘Guardian of Balance’, if you have similar stats, it is natural that you can withstand even Akzee’s longsword.

But…

‘I didn’t mean to show it this early.’

Until the golden opportunity comes.

If possible, I wanted to block the sword with a shield and hide it.

However, at this level, it should be possible to guess what kind of essence this is.

‘head.’

Looking at the top of my head covered in burns, I made a decision.

It’s an active skill possessed by the ogre’s red essence, and

the first proper attack skill I came up with because I only had an attack skill like [Flesh Explosion].

I don’t know why the skill name of the guy with the nickname of the tyrant of the forest is Ittagu, but…

“The character cast [Swing].”

“The destructive power of blunt weapons increases significantly in proportion to muscle strength.

”

Whoo!

I swung the mace with all my might.
