Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian
Chapter 683

Episode 683 Butterfly (3)

Siege Slayer is a very good item.

Its performance is good, but it is especially more expensive compared to numbers of similar rank.

‘There are quite a few hammer warriors in this world.’

Sword, Hammer, Mace, Polearm, Spear…

There are many weapons in the world, and in most games, the ‘hammer’ is treated as a non-mainstream weapon.

but····

‘Not a bad weapon.’

In [Dungeon and Stone], the hammer type is a pretty good weapon.

Although it has the penalty of a slow attack speed, it has the advantage of having higher damage than any other weapon.

That’s true, isn’t it?

Assuming the user’s specifications are the same, there is no weapon that can keep up with the centrifugal force-driven hammer.

Oh, of course, for beginners.

‘I also raised it often in the beginning······’

Of course, because of the limitations of the hammer, I later switched to another weapon, but that only applies to me.

Because people here don’t have second or third cars.

The more you use a weapon, the more proficiency you gain with it, and most explorers who depend on it for their livelihood cannot easily change the weapon they use.

That means that the weapons used in the beginning are often used in the later stages····

‘Even on the 7th floor and above, I saw at least one person wherever I went.’

In fact, there are quite a few hammer users among explorers above the 7th floor.

The problem is that supply cannot keep up with demand.

That’s understandable, since there aren’t many iron hammers among the number items.

‘This is practically a graduation weapon for them.’

Although it is only a 600-piece piece of equipment, if you use a hammer as a weapon, there is no better choice than this.

And the hammer users know that well.

That’s why it sells for a high price just by putting it up for auction…

‘That’s not what’s important right now.’

Shaking my head, I force myself to clear my mind of distracting thoughts.

No. 687 Siege Murderer

A valuable item that can be sold or used as a swap weapon.

The item came into my hands.

That too, by luck, I won the ‘dice’.

Thump-!

At first it was difficult to tell the difference.

My heart keeps pounding, is it because I’m happy or because I’m anxious?

But as time goes by, you will understand.

Thump thump thump thump thump-!

This feeling is never excitement in a good sense.

Well, my heart didn’t beat this hard even when I ate the ‘Aegis Barrier’.

If we only consider the happy things, there is no comparison.

“What are you doing? Continue?”

It was a bit awkward to just stand there blankly, so I came to my senses and picked up the ‘Siege Slayer’.

“The character is wearing No. 687 Siege Slayer”

“Comprehensive item level increases by +2800”

As soon as I held it in my hand, I felt a change in physical measurements.

That’s because this item has stats attached to it.

That too, as a percentage.

“Strength stat increases by 40%”

“Agility stat is reduced by 80%”

Decreased agility and increased strength.

The overall specs are not comparable to the Demon Crusher, but that is the biggest reason why I thought it could be used directly at times.

Because you can use this to make popcorn when you need strength.

‘But my body really does become dull.’

Of course, there are things that are gained in return.

Well, I’ll have to check to know for sure.

‘Swing·’

Cast the skill in the air as a test.

Well, even a ‘hammer’ is judged as a ‘blunt weapon’.

“Huh? Baron, why are you so slow—·”

Just like this

Paaaaaaaaaaang-!!!

The sound of wind pressure created by the hammer cutting through the air.

At this, everyone, including me, flinched.

“uh?”

Looking at those expressions, I made up my mind.

‘I guess it’s better to keep it than to sell it.’

A new weapon has been created.

Of course, it’s not that there’s no discomfort.

The more I like the siege killer, the more anxious I become.

but····

Thump-!

···Well, let’s think of it as compensation.·

A reward for months of hard work in the dream world.

Thump-!

Uh… But still, let’s be careful…

Because this could be a sign of the next misfortune.

Let’s stay alert so that we can prepare for any situation that may suddenly arise.

Okay then—·

“Everything, everything, everything···!”

Then suddenly the archer shouted something urgently.

“Everyone, please avoid!”

···huh?

It’s going to blow up this quickly?

***

What on earth is going on?

As soon as the incident occurs, I quickly look around.

One of my habits is to see and judge things firsthand.

Is it because the agility stat has decreased and the sense of movement itself has become dull?

There was no immediate threat felt.

but····

“···Chew!”

“···!”

The expressions of the people around me are so urgent.

No, it’s not just the expression, but he’s moving around in a hurry and getting out of the place.

“Jaina!!”

Archers are less mobile than priests.

“Grandpa!”

The old man of destruction is Baekho Lee

“Up!”

GM, with a blank expression, hurriedly leaves his spot, carried by Rex Aures, who was nearby.

Until then, I didn’t know what was going on, but one thing was very clear:

Thump-!

This place is dangerous.

I too must run away with them.

With that in mind, I tried moving my legs first, but…

‘Nimiral·’

Wearing the Siege Slayer, my body was 80% slower and was very slow.

He realized the current situation belatedly and tried to put the weapon back into the subspace, but unfortunately, the golden time had already passed.

“What are you doing! Look up!!”

The moment when Baekho Lee, who had left his seat carrying the ruined old man, turned around and shouted at me,

‘stomach···?’

When I realized that Baekho Lee’s gaze was directed towards the sky, I raised my head without realizing it.

and····

‘Ah, so that’s why it came out like this·’

Only then did I realize why they were so anxious.

[Kkiyaaaaaaaaaaah-!]

A giant flying creature descending from the sky, making a creepy pterosaur-like sound.

The only special case of Yonggol Mountain, which has an overall moderate difficulty level.

One of the so-called ‘Star Tomb Trio’

1st class immortal species·

‘Bone Dragon···’

Although it has ‘Bone’ in front, it is not like Drake or Dragonian.

“The character is within the range of [Dragon Fear].”

A real dragon with the symbol of the dragon tribe, even the passive ability.

Oh, by the way, the effect of this passive is very simple.

“There is a gap between the levels”

If you are below level 10, it will apply a debuff that is not affected by ‘anti-magic’ or anything else depending on the level difference.

Of course, at level 9, it only ends in ‘paralysis’…

Level 5 and below are instant death.

From level 6, ‘Stun’ and ‘Soul Exhaustion’

At level 7, you get ‘stiffness’ and ‘soul exhaustion’.

And if I’m at level 8, then…

“The character will be in a ‘stiff’ state for 10 seconds. ”

You get into a state where your body freezes for a whole 10 seconds, and that’s not all.

Stiffness does not end with the first use, but is triggered again after a certain amount of time has passed, the battle time is extended, and when the number of stacks accumulates, a special effect is triggered.

Therefore, Dragon Raid is recommended to be a level 10 raid, and the minimum cutoff is level 9.

···That’s probably not what you’re thinking about right now·

‘transcendence·’

Quickly cast skills in ‘stiff’ state.

“The character cast [Gigantization]”

First, raise the basic stats by enlarging (transcending)

“The character cast [Iron Fortress]”

Physical resistance·

“The character cast [Scales of Greed]”

Maximizes magic resistance level.

And at the same time·

Kwaaaaaaaang-!

The guy’s front paw, which landed as if falling, crushed my body that was as hard as a rock.

The physical conflict was bearable.

“Cough···!”

I opened my mouth wide without realizing it and vomited blood, but I was able to endure it.

The problem came next, though.

“The character took physical damage.”

Like [Dragon Fear], all dragons have a common passive skill.

“The conditions for [Dragon Claw] are met.”

The effect is very intuitive.

“Magical damage is applied equal to the physical damage taken.”

That fucking passive skill makes dealing physical damage deal additional magical damage, and vice versa.

To put it simply, hybrid damage comes in…

Beep be …

I feel like something is exploding inside my body and I hear tinnitus.

It was not strange that the Shield Baba, who had been raised with great care, was almost in a state of near death after being hit with one blow.

This is the game called [Dungeon and Stone].

All the first-class monsters are incredibly strong, and among them, the dragons are especially vicious.

“Jaina Flyer summoned [Healing Leech]”

“Jaina Flyer cast [Curse of Regeneration]”

“Jaina Flyer cast [Emergency Transfusion]”

“Cursed blood···”

Fortunately, I had casted it in advance, so the healing started as soon as the damage came in.

Hmm… Is it too early to say that we’re lucky?

“The body regenerates quickly”

“The body regenerates quickly”

“The body regenerates quickly”

“The body regenerates quickly…”

The injury that could have easily been fatal started to recover in an instant, but that didn’t make a difference.

As soon as my body froze, I started counting numbers.

‘4 seconds·’

There are still 4 seconds left for the stiffness to be relieved.

And in the meantime, if this bone dragon kid lands two normal attacks or just one skill properly…

‘It’ll just die, after all, it’s a first-class monster.’

No matter how well you raise your character, if you get hit by a level 1 monster while defenseless, you will inevitably die.

Just like this

Kwaaaaaaaang-!

Within a moment, the dragon attacks me again with its front paws.

Light movements, like a cat playing with small animals.

It wasn’t easy at all for the person who was hit.

“Cough···!”

It feels like two-thirds of my life force has disappeared.

But in the meantime, this guy’s front legs move again.

However, it is not a move to strike again or anything···

‘I see the wings spreading·’

Nimiral·

“The Bone Dragon casts [Bone Breath]”

You’re trying to shoot that?

The moment I sense the next action, my eyes become dizzy.

‘If it’s right····’

I’m 100% going to die

A situation so dangerous that it makes you feel that way.

“This shit!!”

At that moment, Baekho Lee’s voice is heard from behind.

Tadah!

What is it? Are you coming to save me?

Tadadot-!

But how does he jump here?

As if it wasn’t affected by [Dragon Fear]…

‘Ah… You’re already level 10…’

One more piece of information has been added about Baekho Lee.

Given the circumstances, I wonder if this even makes sense anymore—

‘···What the heck·’

After being hit a few times, my mind, which had been dizzy, suddenly came back.

Even though it’s the 9th floor where it wouldn’t be strange if I died while still breathing, do you really think I’d die here like this?

Phew-!

Within, the Bone Dragon once again opens its wings made of bone and opens its mouth wide.

and····

Paaaa …

A black ray-like breath shoots out from the mouth.

But I never closed my eyes.

I couldn’t even detect it because it was stiff to begin with, but anyways·

Kwak·

That’s true too, right?

If you turn your back on the dream world with that determination and then give up already, there’s nothing more ridiculous than that—·

“Safe!!”

At that moment, I heard Baekho Lee’s voice nearby and something pulled me back strongly.

‘This might be a little touching.’

I never thought a dragon would come to save me while breathing its breath.

‘0 seconds·’

As soon as I shouted the final count in my head,

“The ‘stiffness’ state is lifted”

The stiff body is gently loosened.

At the same time, Baekho Lee, who was pulling me, shouted:

“What are you doing! Put your guard up!!!!”

What, did he see the same angle as me?

Did you measure the stiffness time?

I’ll have to ask later to replace out for sure, but for now, I immediately raised the shield and covered my entire body.

“Defense success”

“Aegis’s barrier absorbs all damage.”

Oh, I really thought it was going to happen.
