‘Gold grade absorption rate is 30%. Evasion 3, defense 3, and freezing induction will be possible.’
Sang-Hyeon immediately entered Mana Synchronization. There was no need to hesitate since the artifact was recognized as his own.
Soon, the food that appeared in front of Sang-Hyeon was a chicken burger and a glass of cola with ice cubes floating on it.
‘Heaven help us, help us.’
It was Sang-Hyeon’s favorite fast food combination. It’s a shame there were no plump French fries though.
I finished my meal in one breath.
Mint, cucumber, and bug. If it weren’t for these three keywords, the rest would be bearable and edible.
Sang-Hyeon, who gained evasion and defense stats through absorption, acquired the special effect of freezing.
If necessary, it could be combined with skills, or it could be used separately.
‘Let’s connect this to full charging.’
Sang-Hyeon decided to combine Freezing with Full Charge, one of his main skills.
If Demon Bash is a combination that includes delay and extension in stiffness, then Full Charge is a combination that includes Freeze.
Then, you can simultaneously move and use a fatal attack while inflicting the target with a freezing status abnormality.
Let’s finish combining right away.
『Full charging』
■ Skill Level: Stage 1 (21.3%)
■ Skill Introduction: (……omitted.)
Inflicts a 0.5 second freeze on monsters or players exposed to attack.
However, the freezing duration and success rate vary depending on the skill resistance of the target.
Added information about freezing.
‘It’s a bit disappointing. Wouldn’t it be better to use the skill enhancement gained with the Don’t Touch Me title here?’
I was disappointed with the freezing duration.
So, in order to reduce the time required for full charging, I decided to use the skill enhancement gained from the Don’t Touch Me title.
[Full charging skill enhancement is performed. Additional effects included in the title disappear.]
[Freeze duration increased from 0.5 seconds to 1.0 seconds.]
[Full charging wait time reduced to 39% of the original level.]
‘also…….’
Sang-Hyeon was amazed.
As skill enhancements are applied, the utility of full charging increases dramatically.
Now we have two status effect options: Stiffness and Freeze.
The two are independent concepts that are treated differently.
A monster that is under Stiffness cannot be affected by the same Stiffness within 15 seconds, but can be frozen.
‘The ability to eat artifacts. I should have written this a long time ago. I should have done it in my previous life too… … . Oh, what a pity.’
What’s the point of giving meaning to a past life? I regret that I realized how to use my abilities too late in my past life.
Of course, the current rapid growth exists because of the regrets and failures of that time.
Sang-Hyeon, who had strengthened his full charge like that, joined the group with a much lighter step.
From now on, it was an unknown area for the three people other than Sang-Hyeon. Sang-Hyeon spoke first.
“From this part on, it’s like a blank sheet of paper for everyone on our team, so it seems like we’ll have to come up with a new strategy.”
“That’s right. All the prior information has been exhausted. There were also casualties from the reconnaissance team… … It won’t be easy.”
Kim Mi-so flinched at the cold wind blowing from the north, where the boss monster was presumed to be present.
Of course, they all seemed to be full of confidence. They were people who were much stronger than their known level.
It was Sang-Hyeon’s judgment that he had experienced and felt directly up close. The state of the artifact’s armament was that good.
Because quality artifacts can cover levels from dozens to hundreds or more.
“If you have no strategy, can you try the tactics I suggest?”
“Do you have any good thoughts?”
All three of them perked up their ears at Sang-Hyeon’s words. It was because they had previously benefited greatly from Sang-Hyeon’s attack.
It was only because of the remaining pride in his heart that he did not openly look at Sang-Hyeon with envy.
In fact, there were many expectations placed on Sang-Hyeon, who had grabbed the super-speed attack by the scruff of the neck and led it.
“Based on what I’ve seen and thought about the environment and flow inside this gate… … .”
Sang-Hyeon began to speak plausibly, as if his conclusion had been reached after deep deliberation.
The most difficult thing was to naturally solve the future knowledge that could be known because I had regressed.
However, the team members accepted Sang-Hyeon’s opinion without prejudice, and soon it became the first task for the four-person team.
After all, isn’t the first attack like heading into bare ground? They were so passionate that they had no fear of failure.
* * *
As instructed by Sang-Hyeon, preparations were completed quickly.
Sang-Hyeon, who was sitting on a plain with a wide open view, saw the graves of corpses piled up here and there.
It was a tower built by piling up only the internal organs from the corpses of previously hunted monsters.
The work of extraction, separation, and gathering was handled exclusively by Sang-Hyeon.
This is because the tower of internal organs was originally intended as bait to lure the boss monster, ‘Grizzly Big Bear’.
So it was important to cover yourself with blood and flesh and give off a delicious(?) smell.
“So, all I have to do is cover the incense sticks with the inside and light a fire?”
“Yes.”
“Can you tell me the expected expected effects?”
“The scent of that sandalwood is sweet-smelling, but when eaten, it has a narcotic effect.”
“Ah… … So you’re saying that the boss monster eats its internal organs along with the anesthetic sandalwood ash?”
“That’s what it is.”

“I first saw this sandalwood while wandering around the dungeons and gates, and it’s amazing that you even know how to use it!”
“I’m a generalist, so I know a lot of useless things.”
Sang-hyeon laughed at Kim Mi-so’s words.
Preparations were progressing steadily.
And when Park Tae-seok used his pyrotechnic ability to light the camphor tree, it started burning fiercely and the internal organs began to cook.
Of course, it smelled bad. So the other three used the passage that Kang Joo-hee opened to leave the scene for a while.
Of course, this was nothing to Sang-Hyeon, who had been through all kinds of hardships and even rolled around in corpses and shit.
Rather, he simply rubbed the flesh residue from the greatsword onto his body without any change in expression.
Thud, thud. Hurrruruk. Hurrruk.
Along with the blazing flames, a strong smell spread on the south wind.
It was a bit awkward that the boss monster was made to come to the player instead of the player having to find it.
Still, the three believed in Sang-Hyeon’s plan and waited for the change with bated breath for ten minutes.
at that time.
Woooooooo!
The boss monster appeared with a mighty roar. It was Grizzly Big Bear, just as Sang-Hyeon remembered. Big Bear for short.
“Ms. Joohee! When the guy finds the prey, please open the space in the direction of the food we prepared.”
“all right!”
“Mr. Tae-seok, you only need to use your ignition ability when you are under an abnormal status. Use it sparingly the rest of the time!”
“All right!”
“Ms. Smile, just keep aiming at the rear. I’ll take responsibility for blocking the path, so trust me and shoot. Got it?”
“yes!”
The distribution of roles is complete.
Big Bear is the most honest enemy you can defeat, and you have to be honest, persistent, and patient in order to lose stamina.
It’s so annoying to the opponent that it makes them want to vomit, but that’s the fate of the inspector player anyway.
“I guess I should really work on skill linking while I’m at it!”
Sang-Hyeon, who had turned his burden into anticipation, smiled and started to charge towards Big Bear.
The battle has begun.
* * *
Wow!
With a shoulder height of 2m and a body length of 3m, the Big Bear’s movements were like those of a sturdy tank.
The moment when I blocked the Big Bear’s front leg strike that came down from above with my broadsword.
Phew!
“Ugh!”
Kwung! Boom! Boom!
Sang-Hyeon’s body flew for a long time and then rolled on the ground, covering himself with a pile of dirt. It was a strength beyond imagination.
I was blown away by an enormous force, and my body crashed into the ground without a single brake.
Maybe that’s why I felt my insides shaking and the pungent taste of blood.
“Kaaa, huh.”
There were clear red traces of blood in the sputum he spat out.
Woohoo! Woohoo!
Big Bear, who thought he had taken the initiative from the start, proudly stretched his shoulders when he saw Sang-Hyeon.
That provocative attitude of asking if you could dare touch me stimulated Sang-Hyeon’s emotions.
‘Even though I didn’t have much fame in my previous life, I was as fierce and venomous as anyone else. I’ll show you the end, you little bear.’
He ran straight towards Big Bear.
And, in time with the timing of Big Bear’s front leg strike, he lowered his body with all his might and performed a swordsmanship.
『Demon Bash』
The gate was opened with Demon Bash.
However, it did not work due to skill resistance, and Big Bear flexibly turned his waist and aimed for Sang-Hyeon.
『Full charging』
Sang-Hyeon prepared a short charge.
Because now, I needed a means of immediate evasion rather than an attack. The angle was bad for flying and rolling on the ground.
Phew!
The sound of the wind that was so scary that it gave him goosebumps just hearing it struck Sang-Hyeon’s ears.
Pfft!
“and!”
“Sang-Hyeon escaped at an unexpected angle!”
His teammates were surprised when Sang-Hyeon cut off his full charge skill and performed an evasive maneuver at a near right angle.
Because he escaped at a perfect angle, Big Bear couldn’t properly track Sang-Hyeon’s position.
Phew!
Quorare!
In the meantime, Kim Mi-so’s arrow flew in and hit Big Bear’s neck straight in the middle.
It’s hard to deal a fatal blow at once, but it’s good for dividing Big Bear’s concentration.
Pfft!
Sang-Hyeon continued to charge again.
If you use it continuously and quickly, it will overload your body, but now is not the time to relax.
Crunch!
Ugh!
The full-charge greatsword attack that entered Big Bear’s waist cleanly caused freezing at the same time as the impact.
“You little bear, you’re caught.”
The scary thing about status effects is that they can be linked to things of different properties.
That is, additional stiffness could be added before the freezing was complete.
This phenomenon does not occur often as it is rare for a player to have multiple status abnormality skills.
But that didn’t apply to Sang-Hyeon.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
At the same time, Park Tae-seok’s remark, which came in at an incredible timing, caused a fire to burst out from Big Bear’s side.
‘Everyone loves sword combos!’
I was very satisfied.
Team play is supposed to go like this, but how much suffering did I have in my past life?
Chi-ching. Chi-ing. Ching-ching.
Just before the ice melts away, Big Bear’s body is freed.
『Demon Bash』
Sang-Hyeon took over Demon Bash.
Then, Big Bear’s body, which had been stiff and loosening up, stopped.
Sang-Hyeon waited for 2 seconds out of the 2.4 seconds that the initial stiffness was maintained in a fully charged state, and then swung his greatsword in one go.
Phew! Phew!
The sprawling veins of Big Bear’s blood painted the sky red.
And Sang-Hyeon, who immediately returned to the starting point, definitely delayed the stiffness that was being released.
Big Bear, who had been left to fend for himself for a long time, had to endure a miserable time.
Kim Mi-so fired four arrows with all her might into his forehead, and consecutive fires occurred in his back, stomach, and side.
Although the one-sided abuse was venomous, the problem was his rapidly declining stamina.
Sniff sniff. Sniff sniff sniff.
Just then, a delicious smell came into the air.
An irresistible temptation for the Big Bear, who regains his original energy by chewing and digesting anything, whether living or dead.
Woohoo!
Soon, Big Bear roared, forcibly released the stiffness that had been hanging over him, and began to run.
This is what happens when you fall into a state of gluttony. It is a release from more than an immediate state.
Boom boom boom! Boom boom!
“It’s dinner time!”
With Kang Joo-hee’s shout, a passage opened right in front of Big Bear. It was a highway leading to the bait.
Crunch crunch!
Hurp hurp!
And then Big Bear began to greedily devour the monster’s entrails, which were heavily intoxicated.
It was like a last supper enjoyed before death.
