Chapter 15 Part2 (2/2)
While I nod, the Elder Treant becomes angry and commands his Treants to come after me. I’m surprised at the NPC’s advanced AI, but to think that even the monsters have emotions like humans.
Hmm, this game is pretty good.
I use Fire Arrow to deal with the Treants since they have a weakness to flame attribute attacks and the damage dealt is 1.5 times more. But I receive an attack after I managed to attack only one Treant, and I’m being sent flying back.
The attack causes a vibration to my abdomen, but instead of pain, I feel like it’s closer to feeling ticklish. The feeling that astonishes me more is actually how I’m flung away. I hurriedly confirm my HP and find that it has decreased to 30%.
I wonder how weak I really am when an attack can take away 70% of my health, and I quickly use an intermediate-grade health potion to recover.
As I fire my counterattacks back at a Treant, the other players rush in to defend me against the other Treants attacking me.
Wow…… these are nice people.
They understand how weak I am and immediately guard me against them. In addition, they even cast a buff on me.
Intelligence Boost.
Like the name of this skill suggests, it boosts the intelligence stats by multiples of 10%. Each increase in level multiples by 10%. Level 1 gives 10%, and level 5 which is the highest level, gives out 50%. The effective time is one hour.
The buff I received is level 3, so I’m given a 30% boost in stats.
I have no choice but to do my best in this situation. I’ll slaughter the enemies one after another. Since the power of my magic goes up, I am able to deal a lot of damage to the Treants.
The battle is becoming in our favor before I realize it. I watch the movements of the other players moving in a smooth manner, especially the commander who was a hostage earlier. It feels like he has greatly trained to do that refined strike that seems to blow everything away.
When I see that attack, I feel that I am unable to match it in style regardless of whatever techniques I have.
I wonder how I compare to him.
Although I considered taking other professions in the past, I wondered if I could take the magician profession to the extreme.
Well, perhaps I should continue to do so— I will raise a magician during the Open Beta Test.
The commander was cutting off the Elder Treant’s arms. The surrounding Treants are already gone. Let me join in as well.
I start casting the strongest spell I have. The Elder Treant was felled due to the Mana Explosion.
……. Oops, did I get the last hit?
W-well, the person who deals the highest damage to the Boss should be the commander who attacked the most.
Since he’s giving instructions to the hundred-odd players, I guess it was a guild event.
The other players seem to be delighted and are getting rid of the remaining Treants. Since the boss is defeated, I don’t think I need to help them anymore.
[What is this……]
The commander raises his voice in a question. It seems that the trees are withering rapidly. It seems like he has not looked at the wiki.
[The plant subordinates of the Elder Treant that rely on it will wither.]
It seems to be this kind of design, where there’s no need to check the forest to see if the boss is still alive. This is a kind design for the beginners.
[You are…..]
He seems like a nice person and I do want to be friends with him, but I don’t have the time to talk with him for long. The time limit for me is up soon. After this event, I have to shop for dinner’s ingredients and I need to log out urgently.
[My name is Chaos. I have to go now (to do shopping). My apologies (for leaving without giving my contact)—]
I apologize and log out.
When I’m back in the real world, I check the time. Just as expected, my time left is barely on the dot. Well, I should leave now before my mother’s mood turns for the worse.
