SSS-Class Ranker Return

Zombie Trio (1)

"Howdy."

“… … !”

As Lokan slowly appeared in front of Folten as if for a walk, his pupils shook violently. Who among the users of The Road doesn't know Lokan's name and face?

“Shall we talk?”

Lokan smiled at Folten, who blinked that he might have seen something wrong.

"do. do. Absolutely!”

And after a while, before Lokan could finish speaking, Folten exclaimed in excitement.

He can fight with Lokan! There was no need to listen to the experience or item distribution, and it was unconditionally ok.

It wasn't Lokan's sucker like Mittina Hamel, but he didn't have a gram of reason to do it every time he promised to give him full support.

"great. Let’s start by renovating that fighting style.”

“The old battle… … the way”

However, at Lokan's statement that he would overhaul the fighting style, he showed a little bit of embarrassment.

Wasn't he also confident that he was playing by finding the best way in his own way?

It was only natural that he hesitated because he was confident that he would not fight anyone at the top level if he only matched the level similarly.

“Come on, take it.”

However, the moment he received one item from Lokan, he changed his mind.

[Invasion of Black Magic] [Rare]

Delivers the energy of black magic to all beings connected to the user.

-Give black magic to all pets or summoned weapons

-When exposed to [Black Magic], deals 0.1% of max HP as damage

- Duration of [Black Magic]: 10 seconds

-[Black Magic] effect stacks up to 10 times

What Lokan delivered was a ring found as a reward for the Scarlet Crusade quest.

A ring of great options that inflicts 0.1% of the maximum health in guaranteed damage and can also impart black magic to the weapons of pets or summoned beings, not just yourself.

It was okay to use Rokhan himself, but the efficiency was probably lower. Each shot of Lokan will lose at least a few% instead of 0.1%, so at best it will only amplify a very small amount of damage.

If it's about 1% per second, I don't know, there were many items that deal that much additional damage.

‘It shines the most when used by a necromancer.’

But if Polten used it, it was different.

The feature of overlapping is that the moment this item is given to a necromancer who can extract a huge amount, it becomes the basis for drying up and killing the opponent.

“Loyalty! Loyalty! Loyalty! Just leave it to me!”

The fact that Folten also came this far meant that he had a fairly high level of understanding of the game. There was no way he couldn't fail to recognize the effectiveness of the ring.The moment Folten accepted it, he pinpointed exactly what Lokan wanted. He knew right away what he had to do and revived Rokhan's expectations.

“The skill combination… … .”

“Of course we have to change! If you give me a little time to exchange items, I will go straight to the infinite contract tree... … .”

It wasn't a problem to delete the combination skill centered on the undead reinforcement. Even though it's a rare item, I've never even heard of such an item.

Considering the rarity and effect of the options, this ring was not rare, but unique, no, it was worth more than Epic as it was limited to Necromancer.

So, one or two combination skills would be a waste. He was ready to shake his head and say that he would do it even if he was asked to erase not one but two.

“You don’t have to.”

Anticipating such a reaction, Lokan immediately offered the skillbooks. This is because the recipe for the Necromancer's combination skill, called an infinite contract, is already widely known.

Of course, Lokan knew, too, and he had purchased it before coming here. As Folten said, it would take too much time to dispose of the item and purchase the skill book.

“Go, thank you!”

“Give it up.”

“Yeah what… … .”

“The price of the skill book, and the price of the ring!”

Lokan spoke calmly to Folten, who was about to receive the skillbooks with emotion. Where in the world is free? Neither the skill book nor the ring was free.

He was the one who had to do the work for himself, so it wasn't as much of a rip-off, but only after receiving all the items he had and kept separately in kind and paying for them, did he hand over the ring and skill book.

It will take some time for the items anyway, but if you put them on Lokan's own shop, they will be sold somehow.

It wasn't until Polten was so nearly empty that he was able to get all of them.

“Heh heh heh heh!”

But there were no complaints to be found. He stole all the money-worthy items he had accumulated over the years, but if there is only this, it is possible to restore it.

If he only learned the trick, he could have accumulated achievements by catching high-level monsters with a much higher level than himself.

The percent damage was that great.

“I don’t need this”

For him, what Lokan put out a beat late was the amount of mana and the rare items that dramatically increased the speed of mana recovery.

Items that can cover the extreme mana consumption required for infinite skeleton summoning through an infinite contract.

“Buy, I’ll buy it!”

In the end, Folten took over them as a condition of writing a contract to Lokan.

It was the birth of a new slave.

'This is the end of the preparation.'

This completes the basic preparations. All that's left is to decide.

Lokan, who gathered Mitty and Hamel as well, explained the operation. Although it seemed impossible even for Lokan, they readily accepted it because they had already had the experience of obtaining a legend-level title.

Even if they failed, they didn't do much damage other than to die a few times, and if they lose experience and items as a result, Lokan promised to preserve them.

There is nothing to lose, and if you succeed, you will be able to achieve at least unique's great achievements, so there is some reason to hesitate

Moreover, the fact that Lokan was the first among users to reach the master level greatly increased the probability of success. If this were the case, although it could be a variable, it didn't seem like it would be very effective.

“Go ahead. Trample and destroy everything.”

The ancient emperor, Chrono, who lost his sanity due to the corrupted power, had no end to his advance.

He cast wide taunts and wasted time chasing the fugitives, but like a swarm of locusts, wherever he went, it filled with destruction, and the tyrannical advance continued.

There is no such thing as strategy. In his lifetime, the ancient emperor was quite good at strategy in addition to overwhelming power, but whether it was because he was tainted with corruption, or whether he thought it was unnecessary, he only designated a point and sent the Scarlet Crusade to trample it.

That was exactly what Lokan was aiming for.

“Hey, this way!”

The long, stout duo sneaked behind them, creating a commotion as the Scarlet Crusade rushed in.

It was difficult to leave a proper scar no matter what they did with their attack power, but Chrono and the Red Guards had to look around as they used various provocation items made with mechanical engineering skills.

"cheeky!"

It may have worked better because Chrono had been resting on the opposite side.

Chrono turned around in annoyance at the sound of the provocation bell ringing in his ears. He showed a strong hostility towards Combi, his main culprit.

“Hey! Harm!"

“Hey, let’s get started!”

Although they specialized in evasion and survival, they could not neutralize the High Master's attack that even Lokan could not do anything about.

But in any case, I was able to stop it somehow.

“Hey, Absolute Barrier!”

A ring on Mitty's hand shattered, and a translucent sphere protected them. The high-master, the Red Guard, fired the lightning bolt without difficulty.

It was the ability of a rare ring with a terrible limiting option called destruction when using built-in skills.

But this is not enough. The duration of the absolute barrier was not very long.

“Raise Skeleton!”

At that time, Polten used her power from a slightly distant position.

little rattle.

The place they are in is where the Scarlet Crusade has already wiped out all the users and monsters. There were plenty of sacrifices to bring back to life as an undead.

Ten of them got up all at once.

“George!”

The one in his hand was the Skeleton Knight's basic weapon, the Bone Knife.

It was unreasonable to hand him a weapon he made himself like before, but that was enough. Anyway, with Skeleton Knight's basic attack power, it would be difficult to get a High Master, let alone Chrono.

Therefore, the key was whether the sword was pierced or not, and the attack power was not important.

“Greater Stealth!”

The moment when the Skeleton Knights were born like that, Mitty and Hamel also took different actions. He hid himself using a rare item that can use advanced stealth whenever he has mana.Then, of course, Chrono and the Red Guard's targeting returned to the Skeleton Knights, and those who were rushing with such momentum turned into bones in an instant.

‘It’s too much.’

However, Folten did not expect the Skeleton Knight's blunt blade to cut through their skin and metal body in the first place.

The reason he raised the Skeleton Knights was to get attention and to draw time.

"play! Unlimited contract!”

And immediately used two skills in a row.

He wielded the power of regeneration, giving the shattered bones the power to resurrect, while at the same time giving new life to the countless corpses on the battlefield. He implanted a code that violated the laws of life and death.

Crackle!

Pop pop pop pop. little by little little by little.

From then on things got interesting.

It was possible to annihilate Skeleton Knights without Chrono's own hand, but Folten strategically staggered the time to regenerate them, so he had to use his strength several times.

In addition, the number of Skeleton Knights was steadily increasing thanks to an infinite contract based on the terrifying amount of mana coming from the item teeth and mana regeneration.

“How dare you bastards!”

Kwagwagwagwagwang!

But there was no way to just look at that luscious remnant.

wide range. Chrono destroyed all Skeleton Knights caused by Folten with an annihilator that covered the entire area at once.

Just then, Mitty and Hamel stepped in and quickly diverged in both directions, drawing aggro again.

“This way!”

"Catch me!"

Kwagwang! bang! bang!

As a survival expert recognized by Lokan, the two did not respond to any attacks. Only when the minimum skill combo, skill linkage, or combination skill was used, they themselves responded by demonstrating their creation and combination skills, and the rest of the attacks could be avoided or endured with normal skills.

For this moment, all creation skills and combination skills were replaced with evasive and defensive types, so it was difficult not to hold on to this much time.

“Flame of fear!”

“Absolute Shield!”

And at the decisive moment of using the master skill, he activated the power of the ring without hesitation.

It was a matter of consuming a rare item that could have a huge value, but there was no hesitation at all. Because that was the order of Rokhan, who provided the ring.

It was not my own, and it was not my thing to cherish it, so the decision was bold and the execution was quick.

“Chain Play!”

Meanwhile, Folten activated his combination skill.

chain play.

At the same time, as well as causing a number of Skeleton Knights, a wave of regeneration occurred that caused the power of regeneration to be transferred to the adjacent Skeleton Knights.

The fearless warriors of the reverse stream started running towards them again.

While he was wasting time, Rokhan was ravaging the Scarlet Crusade that had fallen from them.
