Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

The effectiveness of this skill can be seen in three main ways.

1. Temporary invincibility.

The caster becomes immune to damage until the skill gauge is fully charged.

In a way, it is a skill with high value.

Although it is impossible to move in that state, the invincibility is an invincibility. Even in the game, if you use it well, you can make a super play.

2. Increased defense value.

After casting, the caster acquires a huge amount of defense stats evenly. If this effect is combined with temporary invincibility, it is not unreasonable to see it as a top-notch survivor.

But if you ask if that’s the end, that’s not it either.

3. Wide Area.

[Storm Priest] A wide-area that spreads around the caster until the mode ends.

The amount of damage is too high to be considered a simple survival technique.

Just like the best defense is offense.

“Coming soon.”

The moment he crouched down with his shield raised, the storm barrier built around him gradually expanded its radius and enveloped the entire sanctuary.

「100%.」

An effect change that means that all skill charging is over.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!

A strong wind wraps around the body.

It’s not to the point where it’s hard to tell what’s ahead like when I went into the [Eye of the Storm].

But…

“The character is taking damage.”

“The character is taking damage.”

“The character is taking damage…”

“…….”

Something in the form of a dagger, shining white as if the blade was hidden in the raging wind, struck my armor and my body.

That’s why I sent my colleagues out first.

It’s impossible to hit this type of AoE with a shield instead.

Kakak kakak kak! Quaang!

Arms Back Shoulders Waist Thighs Calves.

The shock was transmitted simultaneously and multiple times from various points to the extent that it was impossible to specify which part.

It feels like dozens of people from all sides are constantly throwing snowballs filled with rocks.

‘Well, that’s about it.’

Well, what are my physical resistance and exorcism?

It’s not a one-shot deal, and you don’t take much damage from these overlapping tick deals.

What about Amelia?

He probably doesn’t have high physical resistance like me…

‘What is this guy?’

Surprisingly, he was dodging one by one.

Wow, at what level of agility will you be able to have such dynamic vision and reflexes?

‘I told him to come because he said he could, but that’s what really happens.’

Oh sure, I wasn’t envious.

Even so, why am I?

“You look busy.”

Amelia didn’t answer me.

Are you telling me to focus on chatting?

[Kooooooo- !!]

The arms cut off the arm cut into me more threatened than ever.

It is the efficacy of the ‘threat number’.

If it was a human who used that skill, he would have tried to kill that Amelia first.

Aaaaaaaang-!

As soon as I caught the guy’s ruthless body with a shield, my body was pushed back.

However, there are gaps in such large movements.

Pooh-!

Amelia stabbed the dagger in the back.

Due to the rapid increase in defense value, it did not penetrate as deeply as before.

And…

‘Now I don’t even flinch.’

Even after being hit with a knife, he swung his front paw at me without hesitation.

Whoo-!

This is the tricky part of the [Priest of Storms] mode.

As if proving the truth that the best offense is defense.

An increase in defense value means an increase in attack power.

You can focus on attacking the time you spend on defense.

Tadat.

I quickly dodged to the side and opened the distance.

If it was a little while ago, it was the timing to use [Dragon Vein] or [Eye of the Storm].

This time, I didn’t have to worry about those follow-ups.

Because this world is a heartless place where you have to give up something in order to hold on to something.

There is also a penalty for [Priest of Storms].

[Koo-oh-!]

Yes, scream.

‘Anyway, you can’t use the skill right now.’

Skill cannot be used.

Stormgushes in this phase must fight with only hand-to-hand combat and that AoE skill.

Duration in game is about 10 minutes.

‘If I can’t catch it, let’s bounce without looking back.’

As soon as the skill can be used, the raid fails.

Not only does he start using all the damn skills again, but his injuries slowly heal after that mode ends.

With one main dealer Amelia, the speed of recovery will be faster than the deal put in.

Therefore…

“The character has cast [Swing].”

I use the skill without worrying about the remaining MP. It was judged that it would not even be possible to divert attention with a simple hit.

“Amelia!”

Whether you can catch him or not depends on how good the main dealer is.

“…… Tsk.”

Amelia clicked her tongue at my cry and swung the dagger again. From the look on his face, it was clear that he wanted to pass the time.

‘That’s why these guys are here.’

I don’t understand at all.

I like it or hate it anyway, but I have to fight for 10 minutes, so why do I just try to hold on?

If you just catch it, it’s a jackpot……

‘Oh, this guy won’t get anything even if the essence comes out.’

It was understandable that Amelia showed no enthusiasm.

It’s because all the seats will be filled with integers anyway.

However, the magician has already escaped, so even if the essence comes out, it cannot be put into the test tube, and even if it can be put, it is difficult for us to sell it and settle it.

Because he’s from Noark.

I hope that we will never see each other again after today.

“If I succeed in catching him, I will not claim ownership of Belverson’s equipment!”

In that sense, it gave me a new motivation.

But what is this again?

“……You were thinking of claiming ownership?”

Amelia spits innocent words.

No. Did you mean to eat it alone?

The topic that appeared later and only hit the last shot?

“…… Carmilla said that you guys should have him, so I’m sure we’ve already talked about it?”

Well, I heard that they had an agreement like that.

But you didn’t do it with me, did you?

“It’s a story I don’t know!”

As she shouted while dodging Stormgusch’s claws, Amelia quietly chanted.

“……Right.”

Somehow, this time I felt like I knew what it meant.

My barbarian brute logic in the future must have been obvious.

Thanks to that, there was a bit of enthusiasm in his eyes.

The most desirable situation as an employer.

coo-!

So a more active engagement ensued.

They had already talked about loot and drank a lot of kimchi soup, but strictly speaking the odds were half and half.

catch it in time

Or do you have to run away with a lot of trouble and loss because you failed to catch it?

It is still difficult to judge what the outcome will be.

I hope it’s the former, and I just move my body hard.

“Behel—laaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

Sweat and drops of blood run down the skin.

There is no time to rest

The harder I bother him, the more I’ll help Amelia, who walks a tightrope and squeezes dill.

Pooh-!

His claws slam down on his shoulder.

rattle.

The breastplate, which had lost its seams, splintered and fell to the floor.

‘The damn repair cost.’

My hands were shaking, but I decided to think positively.

Wasn’t it the armor that had already been harpooned?

The repair cost wouldn’t have made a big difference if I just avoided it…

“Amelia!”

Stormgash ignored me and swung his tail at Amelia.

Tadat.

Fortunately, I hurriedly jumped up and avoided it, but…

Fuuk-!

A dagger hidden in the storm plunged into Amelia’s body.

There was nothing surprising.

At first, I avoided seeing them one by one, but as the battle continued, large and small injuries were accumulating on my body.

But…

“Kuk.”

The location is not good for this one.

thighs, nowhere else.

Blood flowed inexplicably from the pierced thigh, as if it had touched a blood vessel.

But the real problem is different.

Tadat.

That there was a problem with Amelia’s mobility.

‘Nimiral.’

As feared, after being injured, Amelia couldn’t attack as aggressively as before.

And this resulted in a drop in DPS.

‘I can’t catch him at this rate.’

My head is complicated.

Should I change my strategy now?

Do you just jump out while doing johnber?

No, what about my repairs?

Who pays for our hardships?

‘……Let’s do some more.’

I quickly thought over and made a decision.

It’s clear that he’s cornered as much as we’ve gotten worse.

His vitality is almost at the bottom…

[Human.]

That’s when he spoke for the first time.

With eyes full of resentment somewhere.

[Ahaaa — !!!

]

My body stiffened at the strange spirit.

‘A line like this… No, was he a monster who spoke lines in the first place?’

Even if I think of cancer, I don’t have such memories.

So, is it a change made with the reality patch?

Anyway, let’s think about this later.

Because that’s not what’s important now.

“The character has canceled [Giant].”

“The character has cast [Giant].” I

quickly switched the mode to Giant (Normal).

This is because [Transcendence] cannot be used during giantization (transcendence).

「The character has cast [Transcendence].」

It’s really a difference.

What we need now is a deal, not a tank, to fill this gap.

“The skill used next will be strengthened.”

Of course, I don’t have many skills.

If so, which of them do you use?

‘jump.’

once this is not

I wonder if you’re dealing with a long-distance type that is characterized by a paper body. The ability to move quickly can’t even save 1% of his health.

‘Wield.’

This is also true.

Turning on [Transcendence] only increases the range, not the damage itself.

It doesn’t make any sense.

An essence that never existed in my upbringing method.

Even so, I accidentally ate it, and it was funny that it helped me countless times on my journey so far.

“The character cast [Flesh Explosion].”

Yes, I wonder if this is it.

「By the power of the transcendental body, the ability inherent in the skill is opened.」

After casting the skill in advance, he ran forward.

Now, this isn’t an instant skill.

「Explodes in 3 seconds……」

3 second delay.

but instead.

「The explosion damage is greatly increased.」

The amount of damage is increased.

Unbelievably many.

‘Hmm, maybe this was about 35 times?’

I’ve only calculated it once or twice while researching [Transcendence], but my memory is probably correct. Even in [Dungeon and Stone], skills that increase damage to this extent were not common.

Oh, of course, but the pure damage itself is low.

In the first place, it was only used to spray [acidic bodily fluids], but the explosive power itself was a low skill. At 35x, it’s hard to even get 3% of the HP of a level 3 monster.

Well, that’s enough for now.

Tadat.

I dashed forward once more and grabbed him by the neck with both arms and clung to him.

It’s called the Barbarian Suicide Bomber Mode.

[Ah Ah Ah Ah- !!]

He removed me and roared.

Oh, I don’t think you know how to open your mouth.

Sweep.

Throwing away the mace, I quickly put my hand into the bastard’s mouth.

Kwajik-!

The guy who immediately bites my hand with thick teeth as if this human being is crazy.

But one was wrong.

I am a barbarian

not human

‘Yeah, anyway, the time is up.’

When I counted the time limit in my head, an explosion erupted from the bitten hand.

Although.

If it’s an explosion, there’s no spark to accompany it.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh-!

Yeah, if this isn’t an explosion, then what is?

***

The moment the explosion bloomed, the body floated in the air.

It was such a strong explosion.

coo-!

Soon, the heavy body sank to the floor, and I hurriedly raised my head and stared at the place where it was. I guessed it when I saw that the wind had died down before I knew it, but…….

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

The body of the Stormgash turned into a halo of light and scattered.

「Storm Gash was defeated +EXP 7」

Yes, you caught it.

“Achievement achievement”

condition: Defeat the first 3-rank monster.

Reward: Permanently +1 Spirit.

Is it because I’ve been a barbarian for so long?

A sense of spiritual satisfaction rises from winning the battle.

But unfortunately.

“……!!!”

That satisfaction did not last long.

This is because an indescribable pain covered his entire body.

The cause was clear.

「All defense values are temporarily sealed.」

A side effect of Flesh Explosion (Transcendence).

Ha, I didn’t even think about the pain tolerance disappearing.

It was a time when I couldn’t even dare to scream at the vivid pain I had experienced in a long time, and my mouth was watering

.

“Is the barbarian okay?”

With blurry vision, Amelia stuck her head out.

And…

“Good luck.”

said something meaningful.

I don’t think I’m saying this simply because I survived and succeeded in defeating him.

Ah, no way…….

“Jeongsu…… go…….”

“Yes, it came out.”

what really?

I lifted my head a bit more and checked the stomach.

Then, he saw an ultramarine blue essence floating in the air.

It looks like he couldn’t find it because his eyes weren’t focused earlier…

‘……Hallelujah.’

I immediately crawled onto my stomach and crawled towards the essence.

Pain all over your body?

What does that mean?

Human beings can be blinded by greed in any situation.

“……Isn’t it better to start with treatment first?”

Treatment can then be done.

This isn’t the first time I’ve had an arm cut off.

“That Eongsuuu…….”

“Funny guy.”

I pretended not to hear Amelia and crawled toward the essence as if possessed.

「[Stormgushe’s Essence] permeates the character’s soul.」

「Increases Strength by +90.」

「Increases Agility by +55.」

「Increases Physical Resistance by +75.」

「Natural Regeneration +50. Increases.”

“Lung capacity increases by +40.”

“Lightning resistance decreases by -30

.

”

It was a time when I was enjoying that pleasant fullness.

“Then, start by eating the potion.”

Amelia opened the subspace bracelet.

That was the moment.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!

Brilliant light leaked from the subspace entrance.

It was a strange thing even for me, who was unfamiliar with magic.

Even if you put something shining in the subspace, that kind of thing won’t happen.

So…what is it?

“…….”

Amelia must have felt the same question, so she quickly put her hand in and rummaged through it.

And I pulled out one thing.

“Why is this now…”

It was a stone that emitted pure white light.
