Solo Eating to Overpowered - Chapter 176
Episode 176:
Truly anomalous natural magic!
The pollen that the spirits were spraying was not ordinary pollen.
X checked the information that came to mind once again.
Pollen Firecracker (20%): Summons pollen whose properties change depending on the blessing attack/defense situation.
The amount of pollen increases in proportion to the user’s mana, and the power increases in proportion to intelligence and cannot be controlled. (Mana consumption: 300 points per second)
“Now that I think about it…”
Spartan training!
While working with Killua, X had seen the small particles that Killua was handling. I asked out of curiosity, but I ignored the term natural magic because I thought there was no point in paying attention to something I couldn’t even learn.
‘Was it not a particle but a small pollen?’
Seeing is worth hearing!
X immediately activated the pollen fireworks. Pot! Fine pollen blowing out from your hands.
Indeed, it was not a lie that one’s temperament changes depending on the situation.
Ting ting ting!
The summoned pollen stopped the roots of the trees rising from the ground. It appears that they thought defense was necessary and switched to defense.
Thanks to the ring’s effect, his mastery increased to 20%, so he was easily neutralizing the enemy’s attacks.
Sighing, the corners of X’s mouth rose.
‘This could be quite useful, right?’
Although the mana consumption was as high as the effect, it was not enough to be a burden to X, who had an enormous mana tank. Afterwards, I continued hunting, but I was unable to obtain another skill book.
“Kyuut.”
Well then, see you later.
The streaming ends with a gentle greeting from Yongyong’s tail.
After canceling the summoning of Yongyong, who was dozing off from hunger, X continued walking without getting tired.
And Yongyong summoned a new companion to answer his questions instead.
“Hehe, I was almost disappointed that you didn’t call me.”
A contract with a spirit!
The summoned Killua sat on X’s shoulder and laughed heartily. Of course, X didn’t call Killua over to have a friendly chat without Yongyong.
“Killua, you know the magic called pollen fireworks, right?”
“huh? “Are you talking about this?”
Sharala.
Thanks to the dusting method, the pollen sprinkled directly onto my face. Tsk tsk. X spit out the pollen in his mouth and nodded. Then Killua proudly placed one hand on her waist and stretched out her fingers.
“Hehe, there is no expert like me when it comes to pollen firecrackers.”
“okay? “If you’re an expert, is there something different from other people?”
“Of course it’s different! Other spirits cannot move pollen at will, but I can! Look, the way your fingers move like this.”
There was a reason why Killua was so confident. I could actually see pollen fluttering from the tips of Killua’s fingers. X, who was impressed, asked while lightly spouting pollen.
“How can pollen be controlled?”
“this? I guess I just have to use it consistently for a long time? By the way, you finally learned how to make pollen firecrackers. “I’m glad we have something in common.”
“Consistently for a long time?”
X, ignoring Killua clinging to his cheek, reflected on his ambiguous answer.
Using it consistently for a long time is not difficult for X who is used to hard work.
However, the effect of the skill does not change as the proficiency level increases. If there is a change, additional explanation will be provided accordingly. Still, I could understand it.
‘After all, it is a spirit that is nature itself.’
With added effort, it seemed like control was possible. In any case, it had nothing to do with me as a human being. Moreover, it was an outstanding effect even without any control.
Green onions!
X, who was running, took out a feather pen from his inventory. It seemed that Sioras, who had ever set foot on the Cut Off Continent, would know something about the Mountains of Giants.
“If you know what giants like…”
X muttered and advanced out of the Spirit Forest.
*
Arba, the capital of the kingdom!
The Wizards Guild’s Rounds was busy thinking about X today as always. I never thought that shocking first meeting would be the last. Rounds licked his appetite with regret.
“It may be a talent that I will never see again in my lifetime.”
At least have the talent to become a Wizard Guild Master!
If the strict Rounds evaluates it that way, it means that he is actually more talented. Even though a long time had passed, Rounds could not easily let go of his regrets.
“It would be a national loss for such a person not to learn magic.”
If you sell magic properly, it’s not a dream to become an archmage who can handle all attributes!
Rounds also had a war of words with his colleagues over X. X’s reputation is growing unintentionally even among NPCs!
“If it’s meant to be, we’ll see each other again someday.”
As usual, Rounds, who was trying to let go of his regrets, was about to enter the guild when there were people who caught his attention.
It was the kingdom’s soldiers who rushed out of the building next to them.
‘What’s going on?’
It wasn’t just the building next door. There were soldiers moving diligently everywhere. Instead of weapons, the soldiers held brushes dipped in black ink. A soldier approached Rounds, who was watching.
“I am here to carry out the work as announced.”
“Work?”
“Ah, please come in. “You guys have been through a lot.”
Leaving the puzzled Rounds behind, his colleague led the soldiers into the guild. A colleague whispered softly to Rounds’ bewildered expression.
“They said the kingdom would deploy a national shield. The world must be a scary place these days. “Even if it’s part-time work, it doesn’t seem like you can feel at ease.”
“Shield? “So are they drawing a magic circle?”
“That’s right. Oh, don’t make a fuss for no reason? Because the Master also gave permission. “Definitely a shield using a large magic circle would be safer than the master’s protection magic.”
After X broke the cup with the protection spell, there were people within the guild who looked down on the Master.
Rather than acknowledging X, he was disparaging the Master. Of course, it wasn’t funny to Rounds.
“Have you forgotten all your respect and all the knowledge you learned from the Master? There have already been countless times when it was said that shields using magic circles were not very effective compared to the effort…”
At Rounds’ bitter words, his colleague shook his head and pointed toward the soldiers with his chin. What caught the eye of Rounds, who stopped speaking, was a gorgeous silk robe. Rounds was shocked.
‘Royal palace shaman?’
Was this planned on the author’s initiative?
There wasn’t much to say about the palace shaman. Because he was a shaman, not a wizard. There was information that the white masked shaman was well versed in not only the magic of the Arba Continent but also the mysterious magic of the East Continent.
Rounds judged calmly.
‘It’s definitely different from a normal magic circle in its development method. Drawing a magic circle using ink is an unprecedented method. Moreover, if the Master also gives permission.’
Contrary to common sense, you may end up deploying a highly effective protective shield. In the end, Rounds had no choice but to step down due to the harsh gaze of those around him.
“Be careful not to get crooked.”
“This was the right one!”
“Okay, let’s finish the back as well.”
A black stroke was drawn on the guild building. The strokes stretched from building to building in the form of a magic circle. Rounds, who was watching closely, tilted his head.
‘for a moment.’
Listening to the soldiers’ conversations, it seemed that if the strokes were not correct, the protective shield would not be deployed properly.
In other words, if you damage the strokes with an impure mind, doesn’t that mean that the protective shield will be lifted?
Even if it was handled secretly, I couldn’t help but wonder why mother and son matters were being carried out so openly.
Rounds glanced at the palace shaman and muttered softly.
“…It’s definitely strange.”
*
Sparsely.
The green light began to disappear from sight. It was said that after running diligently day and night, they had gotten closer to the barren mountain range of giants. X calmed his pounding heart and slowed down slightly.
‘Because you don’t know what will happen.’
Isn’t it possible that you might encounter a giant as soon as you enter?
In order to respond more flexibly, X and Yongyong proceeded cautiously.
“!”
And I witnessed it. A rocky mountain so high that it seems to reach the sky! It was a height that made me scream. It’s embarrassing to even compare it to the high mountains of the Arba continent. At the same time, I started to worry.
“You have to overcome this to enter the Giant’s Mountain Range.”
As if running diligently wasn’t enough, rock climbing.
Still, X’s feet were heading towards the rocky mountain. If you miss even one step, you will fall a thousand miles away!
There was literally nothing to hold onto other than rough rocks. X placed his hand on the rocky mountain and stuck out his tongue.
“There was a real natural fortress.”
A scale that turns the Cliffs of Xernis into a children’s play! Aren’t they giants from a remote continent who are ten times bigger than humans? It seemed to them that for it to be called a mountain, it had to be this size.
Unlike X, who was distraught, Yongyong and Killua seemed excited.
“Wow! “I must be the only spirit who has seen something like this!”
“Kyuuuut!!”
Let’s go up quickly.
I have never been more envious of fluttering wings than I am today. X sighed and started climbing the rocky mountain. No special equipment, just physical ability!
“Wow, it’s more thrilling than a battle.”
In fact, stamina consumption was higher than in battle, but X’s regenerative power was even higher.
Pababat! Thanks to this, X was climbing the rocky mountain at a similar speed to Kirana and Yongyong.
And when he got halfway up, X realized something.
“for a moment.”
One skill that immediately passes through my mind!
Stepping Stones: You can now fly by stepping on the air in the forest jungle field. The effect lasts until you are attacked.
They say that if you have a bad head, your body will suffer, and that’s exactly what he looks like now. However, it was a refreshing experience to feel like my body was suffering for the first time in a while. X, who was hanging on the rock for a moment, strengthened his will.
‘Okay, let’s focus and go to the end.’
I had no idea that I would feel tension in a place like this other than a battle. Still, I couldn’t slow down my body’s sensations even for a moment, so my nerves and body were stimulated at the same time.
With a heavy breath, I put my hands on the rock, put my hands on the rock, and concentrated my strength on my hands to pull myself up and put my feet back on. Yongyong and Killua, who were watching the scene, asked.
“Can I help you, X?”
“Kyuu?”
“It’s okay so far.”
You can’t take away the pleasure of climbing to the top! It was a cheerful notification that made X, who was climbing the rocky mountain so diligently, stop.
Tiroling!
[You have acquired the title ‘The Climber Who Called the Rice Cake’!]
“It’s definitely different from the rice cake, isn’t it?”
From the first climb, X was climbing a rocky mountain so difficult that it could be considered the best in the world!
The effect of the title was to make breathing a little easier at high altitudes.
X took a deep breath and started climbing the rocky mountain. Maybe he got the hang of it in that short period of time, but he was able to outpace Yongyong in the gentle sections.
After all that hard work, I was finally able to reach the top.
As I reached out my hand for the last time, my heart pounded.
‘It’s finally arrived.’
A spectacular view of the disconnected continent at a glance…?
No, X could not help but believe his eyes. It felt like I had been climbing a rocky mountain for half a day, but even higher rocky mountains were spread out before my eyes.
“?!!”
Okay, I’ll give it a try and it’s not a problem if there are rocky mountains higher than this. It may be difficult at first, but now that you have a knack for mountain climbing, you can just use the trick if the situation arises.
What made X startle was something white.
Jump!
As I said, these are rocky mountains that soar into the sky. However, I saw a goat running around the mountain as if it were my home.
thud!
Every time the goat landed, there was a deafening roar.
The conquest of the disconnected continent began in earnest!X’s impressions were very short.
“crazy.”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
