Episode 30

[Notice: Favre has been defeated!]

[Notification: EXP has been obtained!]

....

[Notification: < Hard Shell > has been obtained!]

“As expected.”

Damian’s eyes lit up as he watched the window rise at the same time as Favre died.

It was as he remembered.

Defeat Favre to drop a < hard shell > with a certain probability!

Even though the experience points given by Favre were also experience points, Damian had to step up to the middle of the mountain in order to obtain this hard shell.

[Hard Shell]

Type: Material

Grade: Advanced

Description: A shell that can be obtained from a monster. Hard as stone, yet light. I think I can make something great.

In other words, this hard shell was the most widely used material in AC, and at the same time, it was a representative item that the supply could not keep up with due to its high demand.

– Stuffed Pork Cutlet: ♨ Hard skin ♨ Buy all regardless of quantity ~~ ▶ Instant cool deal for 200 gold ◀♪♬♪♬ –

Hwamu Ilhong: Looking for someone who wants to exchange the hard skin for Mana Dust!!!!!! – Power Chandol: §§ AC is closed as of today§§

The dog trash item “hard shell” is bought for 300 gold, so sell it quickly

~~

..

“Everyone can’t find it, so I can’t wait.”

Damian smiled as he watched the chat window appearing in real time.

There were already signs.

In the early days of AC, an item that was the target of many laborers and workshops due to demand that supply could not keep up with.

Of course, this hard shell was not something that only came from Favre, but it could be said to be a national material item that could not be entered regardless of level.

It was said that the demand base was ridiculously wide.

First of all, the number of equipment that goes into equipment production is beyond imagination, and equipment enhancement magic catalyst quest materials and so on.

At least, the usefulness of the hard shell was so high that it was hard to guess that this item could be delivered to the kingdom’s government offices.

“There will be more and more people looking for it in the future. exponentially.”

“Pia? Are you a hater of the main character?”

“Where else did you learn that word?”

“I heard an adventurer passing by say! The main character is a hater!”

Damian’s eyes widened at Mungchi’s words.

It was a bonus to pick up the shells without caring about cursing at himself as a hater (= hatred + merchant).

True to his own words, the graph of this hard shell price increase was expected to become visible before long, and Damian is collecting items in preparation for the forthcoming < shell crisis >.

Moreover, trying to use the method of grabbing the leash of the supply because of that was the reason for the evil-looking smile.

In other words, Damian intended to become the main gun of the so-called < Operation Force >.

“Let’s go and collect the money.”

“Okay, master!”

Before long....

Dreaming of making a fortune quickly, a hater and a new chick threw themselves into the forest of Fabre.

* * *

Peaceful Fabre Forest.

“Prick up~.”

“Poke~.”

As the sunlight shone through the branches, the Favre wriggled.

It was sunshine for a long time.

A peaceful place where even natural enemies are invisible, let alone human beings, because it is so densely packed.

With the idea that they could eat the fresh leaves that had received the sunlight for a long time, the Fabres got away from sleeping for 18 hours a day and started chatting among themselves.

It was because there were not so many days when the sun was clear enough to hit the sun in these dense mountains.

But...

“Hey, you’re really no good?”

“Is that all money, master?”

“...stab?”

Favre saw a human with a boar’s head and a fist-sized young chick appear out of nowhere, and they forgot their chatter and started looking down at them.

It is also true that this place was the core of Fabre’s realm, where even most human adventurers were busy expressing disapproval and running away, and even bears and tigers were mummified in an instant.

“One, two, three, you.... I’m guessing hundreds of thousands of gold.”

“Poke?”

The shells of the Fabre boasted excellent strength enough to withstand the cold weapons used by adventurers, but since their defense was significantly reduced due to the < Corruption Potion >, it was no different than inserting an injection into their bare skin.

“Poke!!”

“hmm?!”

Chwiyiyi profit!

Damien turned his head as some of the Favre fell to the floor and shot a string.

It was an unexpected attack.

Damian was walking around like a farmer picking up fallen fruits after crashing Favre all together, and he was taking care of Favre.

In Damian’s eyes, Favre, who had no mobility, were nothing more than Gold who had lost their fighting ability.

However, as the gold calmed down and attacked with unexpected mental power, it was quite an unexpected situation even for a seasoned veteran, Damian.

“Chwichwichwichwit!!”

“Is this crazy?”

Not to mention, the fact that there were dozens of them instead of just one or two was a situation that would only come out one out of ten.

“I was too careless....”

Chwiiik! Chwiik!

So, Damian kept his mouth shut at Favre’s yarn attacks that spewed out simultaneously.

It was a thread attack with an amount that seemed like a waterfall overflowing.

The attack, launched by dozens of Favres in unison, was rippling like a cloth, and it was a large-scale scattering attack that was difficult to avoid.

‘It’s too late to avoid it.’

Quaaaaaa!

So, Damian bit his lip as he watched the thread spread like a spider’s web, while working his brain furiously to overcome this difficulty.

There was no way to escape.

It was enough to dodge the threads that were fired like a water cannon from a fire hydrant, but the river of threads pouring down like this was not an attack that could be avoided just because I wanted to avoid it.

Even more so, for Damian, who knew that even if he hid himself in a terrain feature such as a tree or a rock, overflowing bundles of thread flowed down like that.

It was as if there was no corner to escape even if he wanted to escape.

‘If it can’t be avoided, it must be stopped!’

flash!

Damian opened his eyes as the sight turned white from the thread attack before he knew it.

I had to find something to stop that ignorant attack.

But how?

The waves of threads were already approaching him, and if he delayed any longer, he might be buried before he could do anything.

In addition, Damian, who recalled the warning from the false information system, felt that his survival instinct was being exercised to the limit at this moment.

‘I need aggro. Something worthy of being hit instead...’

In other words, worthy of attracting dozens of Favre’s attention while receiving a wave of threads that would cover the entire face.

Such outstanding aggro was the point Damian needed now.

“...”

“Pia?”

And Damian looked down at the bundle.

* * *

– Biaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

As an unfamiliar scream rang out, Favre’s eyes were focused on one place.

It was a formidable speed.

Like a fireballer with a speed of over 155km/h flying a breaking ball, a newbie the size of a fist flies toward the rolling waves of white yarn!

“Poke?!”

“Prickle?!”

Zuririririk!!

And the Fabres could witness the waves of threads swirling and drying in an instant, like a curtain being rolled up at the same time as it was pierced by a new chick.

“Whew. I barely lived.”

In other words, Damian used a trick to wind up the waves of white threads that seemed to have no place to escape by sending them flying with rotational force in the bundle.

“Where is the owner going!! Are you throwing away the wad!!!”

“Hold on a little, dude!”

Shyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

Damian threw his body with only his head sticking out, looking at the coiled bundle.

There was no human waste.

Indeed, he used his summons as arrow holders for his enemies and threw himself out like a ghost?

However, Damien swung < +9 Sashimi > at the Favre, who were connected with the bundle with a single thread, shooting out at the speed of light while the bundle was buried in the thread.

“Checkmate.”

“...!”

Let’s go!

It was a lightning-fast strike.
