The "Defeat Paraken the Mechanical Monster" Quest is currently underway by Ian and Lotus' Courage Legion.
You can tell by the anxiety that Lotus' rankers are experiencing after the battle, but the difficulty of the quest was considerable.
But apart from that, this quest was one of the basic quests in the 'Bitter Stella’ area, in terms of the progress of the story.
Ancient ruins hidden in Bitter Stella.
It was one of the base quests, providing clues to reach those ruins.
That's why you were asked to find out why a Contaminated Machine Monster suddenly appeared in the quest info window.
However, Ian had already done a lot of other quests related to the ruins, so he was able to deduce why before proceeding with the quest.
‘As I cleared the Lava Zone, Shaia peaks began to revitalize, and it began to revitalize all over Bitter Stella. ’
Mechanical civilizations and contaminated monsters do not invade and contaminate the spirit system for any reason.
It was their intention to pillage the natural forces of the spiritual regions.
Bitter Stella, whose power has been frozen in all of nature, has never been their prey.
It was a wilderness with no loot to speak of.
But it's different now.
With this area that used to have so much energy called the Ancient Sanctuary, mechanical civilizations can't find much more food to eat.
‘Maybe they're trying to kill their own spirits, expand their territory, and build mines and stuff. ’
So Ian began to search for the Horn Cliff with his own reasoning and information.
If his guess is correct, the armies of the machine civilization with ‘Paraken’ will surely be stationed near the most resourceful Spirit Stone Ore veins to mine.
Ian was confident that if he searched based on areas where the energy of nature was dense, he would be able to meet with the machine army.
“Magran, take me to a place where the forces of nature converge. ”
- Nature's power comes in many forms, my lord.
“You mean attributes? ”
- That's right.
“The attributes don't matter. Any force is a place where the forces of nature are buried. ”
- Understood, Master. I'll see what I can do.
Magran and Blaster move quickly and begin the search at the beginning of the Horn Cliff.
And it's been about 20 minutes?
- Found it, master.
“Oh, really? ”
- But the bad guys got here before we did.
“Nasty bastards.... ”
Ian and the Courage Legion were able to face the legions of machine civilizations with ease.

- Tyring!
- We've met with the Paraken Army.
- The conditions are met.
- You will receive the 'Machine Squad Elimination (Bound) (Explosion)’ quest.
…… Snapshot……
A quest message is generated simultaneously in front of the heavenly dragon knights with nervous expressions.
And Ian, the director, first confirmed and judged it quickly.
‘For starters, this is a typical battle quest in the category. ’
The contents of the quest were simple.
Eliminate every last one of those mechanical monsters in sight.
But it wasn't a simple elimination quest with no conditions or characteristics.
Mechanical monsters in front of us, which are roughly transcendent 70-80 levels, have been experiencing powerful buff effects.
Ian quickly examines the structure inside the machine squad's camp, which looks like a 'transmission tower'.
- Combat power amplifier
Classification: Structure
Rank: Hero (transcendent)
Tier: Tier 2
Durability: 1,200,000/1 ,200,000
Powerfully energizes allies of all ‘Machine’ attributes within range.
The ‘level’ of all machines within a 45m radius is enhanced by 30 percent.
* Repairs an ally with the 'Machine’ attribute once every 60 seconds.
The repaired machine regains up to 90 percent of its maximum durability over a 10-second period.
* The tier of all machines temporarily rises while within the range of the corresponding power unit.
Destroy it first. ’
A small clearing in a rugged canyon.
And the mechanical monsters that are building their own kind of seriousness in it.
A dark blue aura was overflowing around the 'combat power amplifier’ located in their center, and a peculiar marking was created over the heads of the machine forces that were within its influence.
A translucent blue lightning bolt.
In the message box next to it, the target's information was exposed in the following format:
-Farmus (Paraken Mechanical Squad) (Rare) Lv. 92 (71 +21)
‘Level Buffney. This is a little unusual. ’
Ian quickly came up with an approximate battlefield situation, which made an interesting face.
Clearly, their combat abilities will buff together based on their level, and even though they were a significant threat to those who became in the 90th grade, they were rare ranks like that (?) I was confident that I would wipe out level 71 or level 92.
Ian holds up his sword without hesitation, as he did not see a common Epic Monster since it was the first battle of the warm-up level.
“Come on, let's wipe it all out! ”
Ian's strategy was simple.
While the Knights are in the middle of an all-out battle, they dive into the middle of the battlefield and destroy the Battle Power Amplifier.
With the "artifacts of the Holy Spirit" which greatly enhance retention, it could be considered a viable strategy.
“Tsh, tsh!”
You little...!
According to Ian's order, the knights begin to move erratically.
And despite discovering them, the machine monsters remain motionless inside the camp.
The AI was probably set to fight only within the power buff.
‘One...! ’
Ian reaches right in front of the machine squad's camp and raises the Judgment Blade of the Holy Spirit.
It was a great judgmental sword rather than the whimsical dagger used by the warrior classes, but Ian wielded it around like a twig.
It was also thanks to the powerful ‘power’ stats that were amplified by Iron's passive power, but the greater reason was because of the options affixed to the Holy Spirit's sword and cloak.
- Twenty-five percent weight loss on all equipment worn.
This special option on both sides reduced the weight of the equipment by half, which immediately led to increased attack speed and agility.
Kuaang -!
Then the Magistrate's sword, which hit the first machine monster's weakness, destroyed his chest with a loud bang.
It was a weak point attack after dodging the ignorant machine hammer he wielded, so it was marked neatly with the Passive Effect of the Holy Spirit's Sword, "The Mark of Sexuality."
- We have dealt fatal damage to ‘Farmers’, Paraken's Mechanical Squad!
- ‘Farmers’ Durability decreases by 39,802!
- The conditions are met.
- Farmer's has been marked "stigmatized."
Ian's mouth curls up, instantly checking the message.
‘Now that you've taken 40,000 damage to the Nonnone Stack, the full combo should bring it down as it is. ’
Just by checking the amount of damage first hit, an approximate angle of kill is drawn in your head.
‘Although the defenses are stronger than I thought.... ’
Gruuuhhh!
Confused by Ian's powerful aggression, 'Farmers’ swung the hammer madly at a faster rate, but it was not a match for such a landslide attack.
Kung-kung-!
However, the clumsy attacks only gave Ian a good environment to build a 'stigma of marriage’.
Bloop.
Once again, Ian's sword begins to glow white, after successfully linking the dodge and counter between his attacks and his attacks.
Whoo-hoo!
- We have dealt fatal damage to ‘Farmers’, Paraken's Mechanical Squad!
- Because of the stigma of the marriage, power is amplified.
- Your ‘Farmers’ Durability decreases by 119,584!
- The conditions are met.
- "Seal of Marriage" was imprinted.
- Reduces the Durability of "Farmers" by 113,452!
- "Seal of Marriage" has been imprinted. (3Stack)
Kwam! Kwam!
The moment I checked the mark of the marriage, Ian's eyes became sharper.
A 90-level answer pumped with a level buff, he had a powerful cuff, but now that the stigma is shining over his head, he could melt away in an instant.
Blame-!
Ian leaps over Iron's back, jumping over his head with a giant Judge Sword in reverse.
Riding buff disappears after more than 10 seconds from Iron, but Ian has already calculated it in his head.
‘Ten seconds is enough. ’
Ian was confident that he was going to turn him into a lump of metal inside exactly three strokes.
Shoot-!
The waves of a powerful Zion attribute wrapped in the sword of the Judge cause a white wave to surge around Ian.
If the Sword of Judgment falls like this, the head of the Palmer will be crushed.
At the moment of leap into the air, a number of projectiles poured out toward Ian, but he was also not unexpected.
- You've been damaged by the Paraken Mechanical Squad, Khalux!
- HP reduced by 9,812.
- Paraken's Mechanical Squad has taken damage from the Defense Turret!
- HP reduced by 10,992.
- HP reduced by 5,795
- HP reduced by 8,879
…… Snapshot……
After obtaining the artifacts of the Holy Spirit, Ian's setting was a completely different concept.
"Ugh, that tickles, you guys! ’
Ian's vital gauge still stands at 10 percent, despite a swift decline in tens of thousands.
Ian, who was always immersed in agility and aggressiveness, changed the setting to the ‘Deal Tang’ concept.
To be precise, it wasn't just defensive like the regular tankers, it was merely life-altering options.
And the reason for that was right here.
Kuaang -!
- We have dealt fatal damage to ‘Farmers’, Paraken's Mechanical Squad!
- Because of the stigma of the marriage, power is amplified.
- Your ‘Farmers’ Durability decreases by 119,584!
- "Seal of Marriage" has been imprinted. (4Stack)
- The conditions are met.
- The power of the Holy Spirit explodes.
- You dealt 195,122 additional damage to the "Zion" attribute to "Farmers".
- You dealt 195,122 additional damage to the "Zion" attribute to "Farmers". - You dealt 195,122 additional damage to the "Zion" attribute to "Farmers".
A fixed additional damage of the Zion attribute that only triggers when the stigma of the stigma has been stacked for more than 3 stacks.
To maximize the power of this attack, which is proportional to the life force of the caster, Ian maximized his life while giving up to some degree of agility and attack power.
Moreover, when the other unique abilities of the Judge Blade were triggered, as well as the "protection of the Spirit," which is the unique capability of the cloak, Ian's setting began to produce extreme efficiencies.
- It triggered the unique ability of the Judgment Sword of the Holy Spirit, "Absorption of the Holy Spirit."
- Recovers 5 percent (48,780) health.
- Recovers 5 percent (48,780) health.
…… approximate……
- The unique power of the Cloak of the Spirit, the protection of the Spirit, is triggered.
- The Shield of the Holy Spirit is charged by 97,090.
- The Shield of the Holy Spirit is charged by 79,423.
…… approximate……
- The "Shield of the Holy Spirit" is charged to the maximum (341,460) (35 percent)!
- We can't charge the shield anymore.
Not only did we recover all the damage from the projectiles, but we also created an additional shield that was 35 percent of the maximum health.
Including the shield, Ian's current cuff is close to 1.3 million.
It included, of course, Levia's Life Buff, a top-class priest, but considering that, it was an enormous amount of tanking power.
Judging by their vitality, they were even higher than the transcendental 68-level knight Jurkan.
Kuung-!
- You have successfully defeated Farmers, Paraken's Machine Squad!
And the other knights who saw Ian's act one step back, they had no choice but to doubt both eyes.
“How the hell is that possible? ”
“What's wrong with Ian's skin? ”
“What kind of deal is this? ”
He had some expectations, but Ian created a ridiculous scene from the beginning.
But at that moment, everyone was amazed by Ian's fighting power.
Ian glances at both of his eyes to see if he has found anything else interesting.
"Wow."
