Chapter 141: Muscle assault
I used Liqueur and even switched to Darley in the middle of the search, but the result was not good...I thought I'd be able to get to the ocean at worst if I went straight ahead since it was a remote island, but I'm starting to think it's not actually an island.
Well, let's just call it an achievement. No one else is going to make the same mistake.
I took the opportunity to level up by defeating Wolfman and other monsters, but it wasn't very efficient. I'm sure it would be faster to level up by fighting bigger enemies in defense battles.
I tried to see what would happen if I used Return here. Then I was back at Healing Lake...so I didn't have to worry about the way home anymore.
Then I logged out for dinner. I logged back in and fished again. I had to cook dinner for Chess, Seguro and Puyosuke.
I successfully caught 20 pond smelt, so I cooked them. I'd like to fry them, but I think I'll go with grilled skewers.
Place the skewered pond smelt on the grill and sprinkle them with salt. Then I adjusted the heat to low and grilled them. Here's what I ended up with.
Grilled Pond Smelt Skewers: Rarity 3 Cooking Quality E
Effect: 25% satiety restored, 1 hour MP auto-recovery (small)
A dish made by skewering and roasting pond smelt. It's a small fish, so you can eat more and more.
So long. I think I'll treat the three of them.
Chess and the others happily ate it all up, but the Goblins and beast-type summoned beasts gathered around...this is.
"Good evening, Takuto-san"
"Good evening"
I knew it was Rook and Tyrol.
Rook has 3 Goblin Fighters, 1 Goblin Shaman and 1 Goblin Archer. Tyrol has Gray Wolf, White Wolf, Red Wolf, White Tiger and Lwe. I'm worried in another sense.
"You're loved"
"Don't tell me...I haven't told you yet, but I got the title of Goblin Collector..."
Is there even such a title...does that mean Lily and the others also have something?
Lolicon
It naturally popped up in my head. No, No, that can't be right, can it? Yeah, there shouldn't be such a title!
Speaking of which, Goblins were the reason I met Rook and Tyrol. I don't know because now I'm more sympathetic than envious.
"I want this organization!"
I'm sure you do!
"B, By the way, Takuto? Where's Loco Moco-chan?"
"He used his production skill this morning. He's sleeping"
"Summon it please!"
"I don't want to. I can feel eyes on me from everywhere. I mean, couldn't you identify it?"
Tyrol must have been trying to summon the Sheep before the event.
"Yes...I kept looking for it, but...it would run away before I could identify it...."
In my mind's eye, I saw a picture of Tyrol chasing after Sheep with bloodshot eyes and Sheep seeing it and fleeing in a panic.
"Ugh...I got the title Beast Collector and became a beast summoner...why~"
Oh! It seems that both of them have changed classes.
"You changed classes. Congratulations"
"Thank you very much! It was a last minute thing, but we made it"
"Rook is a fairy summoner...I don't know either of them"
"I think it's because of the titles we have"
"Ah. Goblins are fairies. Is it a fairy-type power-up?"
"Yes. It also makes it easier for fairies to appear when summoned"
Why? I can't help but picture him mass producing goblins...
"I, I'll definitely get another fairy and show it!"
"It's a flag. That"
I'm sure Tyrol's right.
"Is it the same for Tyrol?"
"Yes! But I can't get the Sheep!"
Ah...should I tell her this? It's a mystery whether there is a sheep in the beast category. Sheep would be in the production summoned beast category.
But it could be in both, so I won't say anything unconfirmed.
"By the way, I haven't tried to identify it"
"I changed my class at the last minute the night before the event started. Can I ask you to do it after the event?"
"Yeah. I promise"
"Its absolute!"
Tyrol's power is amazing...the charm of sheep can change people to this extent.
"Are you going to defend, Takuto-san?"
"Yeah. I explored during the day. I'll be on defense at night"
"So you're with us! I look forward to working with you!"
"Let's see what you can do now that you've changed classes"
""I, I'll do my best!""
I'll be waiting at the Healing Lake. The members are Lily, Setia, Gray, Konoha and Kurogane.
The reason for this is because I was only exploring during the day.
"I don't feel secure"
"It's been a tough daytime"
It seems that Crow-san and Mew-san talked about a wire trap and a cat-and-mouse game of enemy attack. It seems that Ruin-san monopolized the thread of Aranea and took the lead in setting up traps.
"I'm not going to let them get away with anything"
Ruin-san, who was really angry, was really scared.
"By the way, I heard that the capture group have found a new base area"
Acha~. They beat me to it. What a shame.
"But they were wiped out by the boss. That's great"
There was a boss battle.
"Do you know what the boss was?"
"It was Berserk King Kong"
Let's correct it. I'm not sorry. It was a relief.
"The boss of Trent Forest is King Kong, right?"
"According to the information in the library, yes"
"The area boss's deranged state...that's some serious stuff"
That's for sure. It's obviously a more difficult enemy than the Rock Hermit Crab. I have to assume that the other base area bosses are going to be that much more difficult.
"Takuto-kun, why don't you just take it over?"
"No, I don't want to. I have a phobia of monkeys"
"He~I didn't know Takuto had a phobia"
That's about it...I don't like muscular men.
"Can I post that young girls are good and monkeys are bad?"
"Can I write that you were abducted by a Yeti?"
"How do you know that!?"
""Puu""
I was just messing with him but I didn't know he was really kidnapped.
"Tell me more about it. Crow"
"I'd love to hear it"
"Na!? You're setting me up!? I, I won't tell! I'll never tell!"
In the end, I was never told about Crow-san's Yeti abduction. I'd like to hear about it someday.
Gray reacts. It seems the enemy has arrived.
H-e-l-p
A female player's voice. What is it? I identify the enemy that appeared while hugging the female player.
Muscle Gorilla Lv16
Event Monster Subjugation Target Active
"Ah, Nii-chan!"
"Nii-sama, help!"
Acha~. Even Mel and the others are trapped.
"I'm sorry. There's a family rule against fighting a muscular gorilla"
"There's no such thing! Help me quickly!"
Mel was angry with me. Then Ruin-san and the others log in. Before the muscle gorillas...uwa~. That's because the base area is being attacked, so this is bound to happen. I can only say it's bad luck.
"Oh? Takuto-kun, you're here too. Hmm? What's wrong? Everyone join hands"
I'm sorry. I can only do it like this.
Uho~!
"Eh!? Wait!? What is this!?"
"Kyaaaaa!? Se, Sexual harassment!"
"...!! ...!!"
Ruin-san and the others were also caught.
"That was a treat"
I'm not sure what was a treat for Crow-san.
But the numbers are increasing. That's not good.
Then the Muscle Gorillas were pointing at Lily and Setia and talking to each other. Then they made dirty faces.
Uho~
"Ta, Takuto...I have a bad feeling about this..."
"Takuto-sama! Please replace me! Now!"
That's right. But I don't know if they sensed it, but the Muscle Gorillas attacked us.
"Gray!"
"Woon!"
Gray roars and knocks them away, but the Muscle Gorillas outside of range attack. I can't bring them back. I take out my glass sword and give an order.
"I'm sorry, but I don't think I can. Setia uses your bow. Help those who are trapped"
"Ye, Yes! Make sure you protect me, okay?"
"I'll do it. Lily, I'll fight with you this time"
"Really!? Yes!"
We haven't fought in front together like this since the beginning. We'll take a position in front of Setia. Crow-san and the others stay back. I don't want to fight if I can help it, but if Lily and Setia are being targeted, I have to fight.
