Overpowered Sword Chapter 118

Level up with swords (118)

B38-5.

It was the name of the mine the two people were entering.

B stands for Black-Iron, and 38 meant the thirty-eighth time mining began. ‘-5’ records the order of the tunnels, which can be as small as a few or as many as dozens.

According to Irexana’s explanation, this mining area was most similar to the operational area that would be entered four days later.

They say that the monsters that appear and the terrain all match almost 80%.

‘This probably means that the remaining 20% are uncertain variables.’

Leon, who had taken a few steps back from Karen, began to shine with his holy sword. Unlike her, who can see clearly even in the dark, he can only see if there is a little light.

The faintly emanating light dispelled the darkness and revealed the entire view of the ruined mine shaft in front of the two people.

“…They said it was abandoned because it wasn’t profitable, but it’s a huge mess.”

Just as Leon muttered, the inside of the tunnel was a mess. The tracks on which the minecars would have run were all broken, twisted, and tattered as if bitten by an animal.

All the lamps that were supposed to light up had long since been shattered, and the heads of the grain pits and hammers standing all over the walls had disappeared, leaving only the hafts empty.

Karen, who was ahead, said as if she agreed with what he said.

“So, I think undead will appear.”

Then, he twitches his tall nose and says ‘sniff’.

“The ventilation system is still working, so the air is fine, but if the accumulated dust rises, it will be difficult to breathe.”

“What is the possibility of a dust explosion?”

“Low. I can’t say it’s non-existent, but it’s quite difficult for an explosion to occur with dust that isn’t even iron dust. “There may be a need to be careful in 10,000 places while mining.”

As an A-rank rogue, Karen quickly analyzed the surrounding environment and selected only a few pieces of information she needed to know.

These were knowledges that Leon, who was unfamiliar with the field, could not know.

He listened to the warnings carefully and then knocked on the wall with his fist. This is a method of passing only the impact onto the rock wall so that there is almost no sound or vibration.

Quad deuk.

Although he hadn’t used all his strength, let alone an auror, cracks appeared in the wall and spewed out crumbly stone dust.

The durability of the mine shaft itself appears to be quite low.

If I were to pour out conversational skills like without any hesitation, I might have been buried alive in this entire mine. It seemed like we had to fight in a way that put as little strain on the walls, ceiling, and tunnel as possible.

‘I’ll have to thoroughly control my strength first.’

Until now, Leon has always fought with all his might. When dealing with the Evangelist in Blaine, against the Warlock in Rubena, and against Drake in the Titan Mountains.

If he saves even a handful of his strength, he continues to encounter and survive against powerful enemies who cannot even guarantee his life, let alone his chance of victory.

As a result, the ability to use power appropriately became poor.

‘First of all, is not allowed. ‘It’s not a skill worth using here.’

Since the strongest skills are sealed from the start and neither sunlight nor moonlight reaches the inside of the tunnel, the recovery power from the ‘Guardian’s Stigmata’ is greatly reduced.

Because he had never fought in such an unfavorable environment, Leon felt more frustrated than ever.

But he soon realized.

[I understand. Do you understand now?]

‘…Yes’

Creating a favorable environment and taking the lead is a warrior’s skill, but a time will inevitably come when a warrior must jump into it even though he knows he is at a disadvantage.

Breaking through unfavorable conditions with the right technique.

Only those who can routinely commit suicide can become a true warrior.

If you are blind, you must be able to fight without sight; if you have lost your weapon, you must be able to fight with your bare hands; you must be able to attack a perfect defensive posture from the front; and even if you are surrounded by multiple enemies, you must be able to overcome them alone.

[Learn somehow. Tips on how to survive in those adverse conditions and utilize your power to the fullest.]

El Cid said.

[Now it starts here.]

It was that moment.

Kugugugugung…! Kugugoong…!

Before Leon could say anything, the wall collapsed in front and behind the two, and dozens of monsters came out.

Crag-Mutant.

The risk is unknown. These are monsters that appear in large mining areas. It has a magic core inside the ore, so it builds its body autonomously and attacks only organic life forms.

Their combat power varied greatly depending on their composition, and their countermeasures were also inconsistent.

“Nonsense. “I didn’t feel any presence at all…!?”

Since the two people could not feel it even with their developed energy senses, they were easily surrounded. Karen, who had little experience working in mining areas, also looked embarrassed.

Leon, who had his back to her, took a step forward first.

‘This is my first time seeing a Crag Mutant.’

In a word, it is a living, moving stone.

The size and shape are all different, and not only the behavior pattern but also the location of the nucleus does not match. It was easier to think of each one as a separate monster.

There were some that looked like animals and some that looked like humans.

The Crags standing facing Leon paused for a moment, then moved their blocky lower bodies and started running.

Thump thump thump thump!

The sound of stamping feet is extremely heavy.

As expected from the monsters of the Hyeoncheol Mine, it had Hyeoncheol mixed into its body, so it was clearly visible that it weighed easily over 400 kg. The speed is also quite fast. Although he is slower than someone who knows how to use Aurors, he is at the level of a well-trained soldier.

Its weight and rigidity alone were threatening enough.

‘I’ll take a stab at it.’

Aurors do not use it.

It is left to the physical ability and sharpness of the holy sword. I dodge the kick of the guy who attacked me like an animal by an inch and look at his empty head.

Leon, naturally holding the upper part, plunged his sword vertically.

A flash that imitates what El Cid showed at the blacksmith shop.

Quaaaang!

The stone chunk struck by the blade of the holy sword exploded with an explosion, and perhaps accidentally hit the core, turning back into simple ore.

The sword that hit the top of the head penetrated all the way to the body.

However, Leon’s face was not bright after defeating him with one blow.

‘It’s solid. The limit was to hit it, not cut it. If you don’t use aurors, it will be a bit difficult with a sword.’

Because it’s a holy sword, it doesn’t have any missing teeth. Even if it’s a sword made of mithril, if you handle it as ignorantly as before, the body of the sword will bend. This meant that Crag Mutants could be stably captured only by using the Auror Weapon.

Even if one animal wasn’t much, if there were tens or hundreds of them, the amount of power consumed would definitely be enormous.

‘I need to find a separate, efficient method.’

Leon moved his body independently of those thoughts.

The blade flowed like water, drawing a line in the tunnel with a subtle golden light, cutting down three Krags.

When using the , even stone blocks mixed with metal can be cut. I cut down two more at once, then took a step forward and cut horizontally, so even the Krags lost their momentum and faltered.

Crispy.

Craggs’ body later collapses into stone crumbs.

Leon took advantage of the moment to look back.

“I guess it’s because it’s a rock. “Poison doesn’t work at all.”

There, Karen’s one-sided violation was taking place.

Try using poison or cutting into relatively weak areas. Alternatively, the body could be split into pieces using the Auror Weapon to search for the core.

Although I didn’t get any particular income.

“You and I don’t get along well.”

After making sure to kill the people she had suppressed, Karen kicked the remains and grumbled.

Ore-type monsters are not even living creatures, so they are impermeable to poison, and the assassin’s method of attacking vital points is also meaningless except for the magical core.

The only way left for Karen was to overwhelm with destructive power.

“Would you like to practice some new skills?”

If you ignore something you can’t do, it becomes a weakness, but if you change it into something you can do, it becomes an unexpected advantage.

A shadow emerged from Karen’s grasp and changed its shape as it wrapped around a dagger. A shadowy string similar to a bowstring was connected between the thumb and the small finger, and the dagger was pulled taut while placed on the string.

If you grant ‘elasticity’ just like when you came out of the Titan Mountains and shoot the dagger like an arrow…

poop!

The dagger extended like a flash of light, pierced through four Krags, smashed the head of the one beyond them, and became embedded in the wall.

It was such a destructive force that even Karen, who shot it herself, was left speechless.

“…is it worth using?”

The consumption of aurors was also significantly reduced. Karen seemed to have gotten a clue from an unexpected place, so she made a shadow bow with both hands and started firing daggers.

Leon, who was watching this, also realized something.

‘I have to learn how to fight differently than before.’

There may be no need to shoot daggers like Karen, but his fighting style needs to be flexible.

I couldn’t change my main weapon.

A hero is at his strongest when he has a holy sword equipped in his hand. Therefore, flexibility in combat methods had to take a different form.

El Cid gave advice as if affirming his idea.

[A swordsman is someone who uses a sword, not someone who only uses a sword. There’s nothing more stupid than a user becoming obsessed with a tool. Isn’t that right?]

The moment Leon smiled bitterly at those words, the Crags began to approach again. Unlike living monsters, Crag Mutants’ instincts and intelligence are at a primitive level, so even if they understand the difference in power, they forget it within a few seconds.

15 meters.

Looking at the guys who came into range, Leon lowered the sword in his hand and ran forward.

Paang!

Strike, not sword strike.

He held out his palm to block the charge of one Krag and pushed the Auror beyond the hard surface.

Thin and thin like a thread.

In an instant, I stirred it up as if searching its body and pulled it out.

Since Leon still had low proficiency in the , it was easier to use the palm of his hand than the blade, which had a small contact area.

“Tch!”

Leon thought so, but after experiencing trial and error, he ran away to avoid the Crags that followed him.

The strengths and weaknesses of ore monsters.

Since it had no joints or nerves or muscles, it was resistant to damage, but its movements were more crude than those of a wooden doll. If there was enough space, one could run away for hours.

‘again!’

Instead of giving up, he slams his palm into Crags’ torso. Looking at the body shaking from the impact, Leon realized that it was not necessary to use the auror in the form of a thread.

It is a wave.

Concentric circles spreading out in an invisible world. The echolocation of those waves is used to examine the creature’s body.

Wow!

There were times when I made a mistake in controlling the force and ended up throwing the crab away.

Wow!

It was so infused with aura that it shattered its body.

‘Once again…!’

It’s different from breaking a spear in a blacksmith shop.

You must dodge while dozens of Crags attack, and there is a time limit of about 1 second. It was dozens of times more difficult to succeed in ‘Gongbeop’ in that moment.

Nevertheless, Leon never gave up.

His palms, which had been chapped from hitting Crag, were bleeding, his eyes were wide open, and he extended his hands towards the next target.

Whoops!

Even though I protected my hand with an aura, I hit a rock. The skin peels off and the impact makes the bones tingle. Some will groan and some will grit their teeth.

However, Leon just changed his posture without a single hint of confusion and tapped the next crab with his palm.

I am familiar with self-denial.

Pushing himself was no big deal to Leon. It was just the same routine as usual for more than three years.

Once or twice.

Ten times twenty times.

and.

Taaang!

Using an unknown number of failures as a stepping stone, the aura that overflowed from Leon’s palm made Cragg’s body vibrate.

.

The wave that swept through him once returns and conveys the location of the magic core within the body. Right shoulder. Leon pierced exactly that spot with the holy sword.

There was a sound of something solid cracking.

“Did you succeed?”

As soon as the sword was drawn, the torso of the Crag Mutant, which was larger than a bear, collapsed.

It was evidence that the location of the nucleus found through the method was accurate.

Just one success.

However, the experience gained from success was more than that gained from failure. Reflecting on the feeling that still remained in his left palm, Leon glared at the few monsters that were already left.

“…again.”

Craggs, overwhelmed by the eerie force, took a few steps back, but soon forgot their fear with the memory of a crucian carp.

In the tunnel of B38-5, the hero and the monsters clashed again.

“lol.”

Behind Leon, who was struggling like that, Karen, who had already destroyed dozens of Krags, was wandering.

That fierceness was Leon’s hidden charm.

A person who never gives up no matter what happens, who never loses his fighting spirit no matter what powerful enemy he faces, and who inspires hope like an ember in those who look at him.

“You want to become stronger, hero.”

A faint light appeared in Karen’s empty eyes.

The emotions that had been worn away while living as an assassin were slowly being revived as they stayed by his side.

The light that had been abandoned in the darkness came down like a rope.

The frozen blood seemed to melt in the warmth.

‘I shouldn’t be satisfied with this much.’

Although he has reached the level of a master, he is a half-penny who cannot even use . I didn’t even feel like I could reach the cardinal I met yesterday.

You should not show off with a bow made of shadow.

A true Assassin Master is an incarnation of death who can defeat even masters like him. If you learn the ‘Aura Blade’ and ‘Aura Skills’ properly, there will be few people who can survive in front of her.

“Don’t miss it this time, stoneheads.”

Karen’s eyes turned around with a blue glow.

Before we knew it, dozens more Crag Mutants appeared, glaring at the creatures that had invaded their territory for the first time in a long time.

The total length of B38-5 is 34km.

The number of monsters living there is in the thousands.

Guuuuung.

Cragheader, which even imitated the structure of a specific mutant creature that appears rarely, let out an eerie scream.

As infrasound waves flow, they intimidate surrounding creatures.

Since it contains magical power, it is at the same level as a kind of mental magic, so those who are mentally and physically disturbed will feel numb.

But Karen faced the sound wave and smiled brightly.

“Did you even say hello? hi! “Nice to meet you too. And-.”

With an innocent smile on her face, she burned the blades of the daggers she held between her ten fingers to a turquoise color.

Aurifier with further increased density.

“-Everyone die for me and the hero!”

Immediately after that, a meteor shower resembling a will-o’-the-wisps tore apart the darkness of the abandoned mine.
