I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 70

Episode 071

Vargis unwound and quickly dodged, but was unable to prevent the skill from hitting the end of its tail.

“Keeee!”

Vargis, screaming, quickly climbed up the wall, climbed the ceiling, and rushed towards us.

It seemed like an attempt to attack by falling from above. But it was faster for us to avoid it.

And the one-sided beating of Vargis continued.

Vargis, who continued to be hit by ice spears regardless of his body, head or tail, began to gradually slow down.

Several of its legs were broken off and its carapace was broken in several places.

If I just hit a few more shots like this, I think I can completely capture it.

I wasn’t the only one who thought that. Both Yoo Eun-dam and Seo Ji-han seemed to think so.

Vargis’ life was on the verge of giving up.

Vargis, who continued to try to attack while dodging by running up the walls and ceiling, suddenly curled up and did not move.

For a moment, I thought he might have died, but since the boss monster death notification message did not appear, I don’t think that was the case.

Vargis hid his weak stomach and curled his body into a ball, withstanding Yu Ndam’s attacks with only his outer shell.

The defense had definitely increased, but as the carapace was frozen and the impact of the ice spear was added to it, damage was steadily accumulating on Vargis’ body.

Several places on Vargis’ carapace continued to break.

But at some point, I felt out of place.

The inside of the carapace, where green blood should have flowed, was empty.

As if the substance had disappeared.

“I don’t think Vargis is bleeding.”

“Isn’t it because it’s frozen?”

Unlike Yoo Eun-dam, who responded to my muttering indifferently, Seo Ji-han’s face was stiff.

In battle, an abnormality whose cause cannot be identified puts the situation at a disadvantage.

– Kergis had two skills. So, Vargis may also have a second ability besides his solo dance.

The moment Seo Ji-han said those words, Vargis’ shell shattered once again and the creature was cut in half.

At that point, Yoo Eun-dam also stopped his attacks, probably because he felt something was strange.

“Why doesn’t that guy die?”

Instead of answering Yu Eundam’s question, I handed him a magic recovery potion.

It seems ominous.

The carapace was already tattered like a rag, and the body was cut in half.

Even if you die, you should have already died, but the boss death message does not appear.

Do you have the skill to escape, leaving only the shell behind?

The moment I inferred the situation in my own way, something strange occurred.

Vargis’ carapace, with only the shell remaining, was shattered to a crisp.

And something huge rose out of that gap.

wing.

It was a bee-like wing that could not have been attached to a centipede.

Vargis was no longer a centipede.

The two-pronged red horns on its forehead were still there, but it had completely transformed into a wasp-like appearance.

Isn’t this a scam?

As he soared into the sky, we came down to the ground.

Now that Vargis can fly, floating in the air doesn’t give him any advantage.

The mobility was actually lower here.

Vargis did not simply become able to fly.

The speed also increased tremendously.

“This is my first time seeing this.”

Eundam Yoo muttered with an embarrassed look on his face.

But it was not a situation to talk casually.

Vargis, who had taken over the sky with great vigor, spewed venom from his mouth.

Urgently, Yu Eundam condensed the cold air and froze the poison.

However, the poisonous liquid that could not freeze fell to the ground and melted the stone.

Isn’t it too much to do?

If you just brush against it, you’ll die in one hit.

Then, Vargis began spewing poisonous smoke again.

Thanks to its flapping wings, the poison spread faster than before.

Eundam Yoo created an ice spear and threw it at Vargis, but it was no match for the guy who was much faster than before.

We need something faster to attack.

For example, a laser beam.

beam.

I happen to have that skill again.

First, I fired a few rounds of Chungwang cannon with my hand.

Certainly, my Chungwang Cannon was much faster than Yu Eundam’s ice spear.

At first I missed the mark, but soon I was able to predict its movements and hit the mark.

“The hit rate is good, but the damage is weak.”

Know.

The Chungwang cannon fired by hand could not pierce Vargis’ carapace at all.

It seemed like it did some damage to the wings, though.

Should I just keep shooting my wings so I can’t fly?

No, there is a better way.

“Can you make the flying a little slower? “Like that cold feeling from before.”

“Can’t slow it down much.”

“Even just a little bit.”

Eundam Yoo stretched out his free hands and began to condense the cold air.

Vargis’ solo dance and Yoo Eun-dam’s coldness continued a tense battle.

Naturally, it was Yu Ndam’s coldness that prevailed.

The temperature lowered by the ice began to transfer to the atmosphere.

The horsepower was sufficient.

The effect of the magical power increase potion I drank earlier was still maintained.

I took a deep breath and tore up the scroll that Eundam Yoo gave me.

It’s one room.

One shot that can kill Vargis.

I’m going to hit Vargis with all my strength and the best output I can produce.

Chungwangpo.

The S-class skill inherited from the boss monster Kergis eats up all my magical power.

And it began to materialize in the most powerful form I have ever used.

“wow.”

I heard Yoo Eundam’s soft exclamation from behind me.

I put horsepower in and put it in again.

I squeezed my entire body and poured out all my magic power until not a single drop was left.

Even the soul was scraped away.

Please, I don’t even want dramatic power.

My magic power level is insignificant anyway.

Even if you inflate it with a magic power increase potion and use a scroll to increase attack power, the basic value remains insignificant.

I just hope.

I hope you can at least pierce that Vargis’s carapace and inflict some wounds.

Finally, I floated the completed skill above my head and glared at Vargis.

It seems to have slowed down a bit thanks to the cold, but it’s still not slow enough to be reassuring.

This is a skill that can only be used once.

I won’t bet on the possibility of ‘being right.’

You have to make sure that you have no choice but to get hit.

“Mr. Yoo Eundam. That ice spear I wrote about earlier. Quickly shoot over Vargis’ head. now.”

No answer came back.

But a huge ice spear started forming right in front of me.

The moment the spear was fired exactly over Vargis’ head, I aimed downwards and fired a full-bore gun.

The enormous power condensed on the horn of light flies in a straight line.

The target was Vargis’ body, which flew downward to avoid the ice spear.

Please be right.

It’s true, and it has some effect….

Quiang.

“Eck.”

“woah.”

– her.

Everyone was speechless at the sight before their eyes.

Chungwangpo did not miss.

In fact, it was the opposite.

It was too much of a hit.

My Chungwang Cannon extended at the speed of light and literally pierced Vargis.

There were holes in Vargis’ stomach and chest as if someone had pressed them out with a cookie mold.

At best, I expected it to break the shell a little or cause some damage to the body, but the effect was ridiculously good.

No matter how much Seo Ji-han said that Vargis was soft, I didn’t believe it, but he was really soft.

Anyway, how good is this attack power increase scroll effect?

King Vargis has died.

After a while, the space maintained by Vargis’ power will be disconnected.

It was only when the message appeared before my eyes that I relaxed.

I have no energy in my whole body, my legs are shaking and my vision is spinning.

I quickly took out the magic recovery potion and poured it into my mouth.

To be honest, this doesn’t taste very good, but it’s been too long since I thought about that.

If you use too many potions in a short period of time, you will get ‘Status Abnormality: Potion Poisoning’.

Poisoning causes the effectiveness of the potion to be greatly reduced.

‘Status Abnormality: Potion Poisoning’: Duration: 24 hours 00 minutes

.

I already feel sick to my stomach because I took too many potions, but seeing this message makes me feel even more weak.

I looked helplessly at the gates opening here and there.

“Incredible.”

Eundam Yoo did not hide his admiration.

He looked like he wanted to applaud.

I was barely able to show my humility as I gathered myself up from the pain that was coming out of my mouth.

“you’re welcome. “I think the scroll effect you gave me is really good.”

“It’s a Class A attack power increase scroll, but it’s a good thing I gave it to you.”

okay?

Grade A is a grade that is not often found on the market.

It is probably an item made internally specifically for the guild leader.

If it weren’t for that scroll, it wouldn’t have been able to produce this level of power.

“Now…”

I trailed off and took a quick look at Yoo Eundam’s face.

Now that we’ve defeated Vargis, there are a few problems that are piling up, but the most urgent of them all is this.

What should we do with Vargis’ body?

I feel like I just want to run and loot right away…

but honestly, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t crave Vargis’ corpse right in front of me.

And to put it bluntly, it was more efficient in many ways for me to root, rather than for Yu Eundam.

– What are you doing? Hurry up and don’t root.

Seo Ji-han seems to think that of course I should have Vargis, and is already nearby, looking around at the dead guy.

The attitude is like a merchant at a fish market checking the freshness.

But I felt a little cautious.

First of all, since I was the other person, I didn’t want to act carelessly and lose out.

Although the last shot I fired contributed significantly to Vargis’ death, strictly speaking, I only contributed to the table prepared by Yu Eundam.

You might be mistaken in thinking that I had the upper hand against Vargis because of that last shot, but that wasn’t the case.

If it weren’t for Yu Eundam, it would have been difficult to predict victory even if Kergis had fought Vargis himself, not me.

Even if you hit Vargis a few times with the Chungwang Cannon or the Chungwang Thunderstorm, Kergis would not have been able to defeat the poison.

In the end, I was able to win, even though my fighting power was inferior to Kergis in many ways, and it was all thanks to Yu Eundam blocking the poison.

Not only that, but Yu Eundam had a great influence on Vargis’ transformation, increasing his agility and lowering his defense.

Plus, they provided support fire so I could hit it.

In a situation like this, wouldn’t it be too shameless for me to swallow Vargis?

“What are you doing?”

“yes?”

“You need to be rooted.”

Eundam Yoo pointed to Vargis with an expression that seemed obvious.

Are you serious?

Or are you just floating around?

If it were a normal item, you wouldn’t notice it this much, but this is a by-product of a boss monster.

It was the greatest treasure of this era and so precious that its value could not be expressed in money.

But you’re going to brush it off like this?

I wouldn’t be surprised if they said they would just kill me and take that thing, right?

“Can I root you?”

I asked tentatively, and Yoo Eundam tilted his head as if asking such a useless question.

“of course. “If the person who killed Vargis doesn’t have it, then someone else will. Go and loot it.”

“If it wasn’t for Yoo Eundam, I wouldn’t have caught it.”

“Thank you, but if it wasn’t for you, I would still be under the ground being pulled out of magic.”

Looking at the smiling face, I guess it was sincere.

I rooted Vargis thanks to Eundam Yoo.

I’m curious about the list of items in my inventory, but I haven’t checked them.

For some reason, I felt like I was counting money in front of the person I handed it to.

“Now it’s time to leave.”
