All Stat Slayer - A.S.S Chapter 47 (part 2): Season 1: Preparation
Around two weeks had passed. During that time, they had been working tirelessly, and it was starting to get monotonous.
[Dungeon clear conditions have been completed.]
They completed the conditions. Then a new notification sound rang out.
[A boss monster will be spawned.]
[The first dungeon boss monster has been discovered.]
[It is recognized as an easy achievement.]
The Inha Guild had discovered the first hidden dungeon, and now they had discovered the first training dungeon. And this time, they had discovered the first dungeon boss monster. It was recognized as an easy achievement, and they received a +3 bonus stat.
‘We expected a boss monster to be spawned in the dungeon, but…’
They didn’t expect it to happen today. Despite the progression of the normal mode so far, a dungeon boss monster hadn’t appeared yet. If we were to compare it to online games, dungeon boss monsters would be in a form where soloing was impossible, requiring multiple users to surround and raid it.
Hyun-seok heard a pleasant notification sound.
[The boss monster’s stats will increase by 30 percent due to exceeding the specifications of normal mode.]
[Due to the penalty, the boss monster’s special skill usage restriction has been lifted.]
The figure that appeared on the field was a Giant Turtle. However, it was smaller than the turtle that appeared on the Gyeongin Expressway. It stood about 2 meters tall, and its body length appeared to be around 5 meters.
Hyun-seok was relatively relieved. Judging from their experience with Cyclops, if the monster’s type remained the same regardless of its size and difficulty, its basic behavior should be similar. As long as the shell was intact, it wouldn’t pose a significant threat.
However…
[The restriction on the boss monster’s special skill usage has been lifted.]
He took the notification sound too lightly. He had heard familiar notifications like “Monsters become more violent due to exceeding the specifications of normal mode” far too often. That’s why he was slightly careless. Even someone who valued safety as much as him tended to relax in familiar situations.
In the midst of his brief relaxation, the attack of the miniaturized Giant Turtle began. Despite the intact shell and its seemingly sluggish movements, the green liquid sprayed from the turtle’s mouth was undoubtedly dangerous.
Jong-won shouted, “Damn it! The shell is still intact!”
Over 40 slayers who were slaying the Giant Turtle were killed in an instant. Now, they were receiving the boss monster’s adjustments, making its destructive power even stronger. Moreover, there was a 30 percent increase in its stats. They estimated that the damage from the acidic liquid of the Giant Turtle in the field would be around 10,000 if it directly contacted the skin. In the current situation, it meant receiving at least 10,000 damage if they were hit directly. Hyun-seok also yelled out in frustration.
“This is crazy!”
Hyun-seok himself wasn’t in much danger. He could withstand a few hits. In fact, even if he reached Jong-won’s level, one or two hits wouldn’t be overly dangerous. He already knew that direct contact with the skin would cause significant damage. If that were to happen, he would bring out his shield. Unlike Hyun-seok, who couldn’t equip items, as a combat slayer, he carried basic items in his inventory. The same was true for Myeong-hoon. As for Hong Se-young, it was a matter of avoiding the attacks.
However, the problem lay with Min-seo and Pyeong-hwa behind him. The Giant Turtle launched its attack in an instant. With Hyun-seok’s abilities, he could protect either Min-seo or Pyeong-hwa. But that meant one of them had to be sacrificed. A momentary lapse of judgment had led to a dangerous situation.
“Damn it!”
To make matters worse, the Giant Turtle continued to spew the green liquid in all directions.
“Dammit!”
Two women appeared before his eyes: Pyeong-hwa and Min-seo. One was the woman who made him feel excitement for the first time in years, and the other was his beloved sister. In this brief moment, it felt like time stretched out endlessly. Nevertheless, a decision had to be made quickly. Lingering indecisiveness could lead to the worst-case scenario where no one could be saved. Although the depth of the internal conflict was profound, time was short. In that short moment, he made his decision.
He threw himself forward.
