Chapter 681
Jjang!
Jjeejeeeong!
No matter how many times he tried, the result was the same . Grid’s attack didn’t make a scratch on the barrier . The system’s privacy was absolute .
‘Sheesh, why am I not invincible when making an item?’
He didn’t have anything like this when using Item Combination . It was discrimination that made people dissatisfied . Item Combination was even from a hidden piece!
‘It’s too much . ’
Grid glared at Kruger inside the barrier . Kruger squatted on the ground and was cutting cloth with tools such as scissors, chisels, and knives . A large cloth was divided into specific forms and then sewn together . A skeleton squatting down and sewing . . .
Was there such a great comedy? Anyone else would look at Death Knight Kruger and laugh . But Grid didn’t laugh . His expression gradually stiffened .
‘He can cut cloth so quickly and precisely with a bony hand . . . ’
Grid’s admiration was huge . It was the aftermath of acquiring the intermediate Tailoring skill . Grid knew something about tailoring, even if he wasn’t a tailor . Thanks to this, he could see Kruger’s great ability .
‘He can sew so many different types of fabrics together without making it seem like it . . . This is the legendary tailoring technique . . . ’
Grid’s tailoring ability was naturally lacking . He couldn’t use various types of cloth when making one item . He had to concentrate on only two types of fabrics when producing items, as well as retain the characteristics of the fabric in order to produce plausible results .
‘It’s a bit too much to sell . ’
Most of Grid’s cloth items didn’t have a good performance . They were a bit better than the items sold at the usual village stores . This was the power of dexterity . Grid still had a long way to go when it came to tailoring itself .
‘In the first place, I don’t want to be a tailor . . . Well, whatever . ’
Now wasn’t the time to be thinking of these things . Grid shook his head and cleared his mind .
‘I need to focus on the fight . I will win this fight . ’
Why was Kruger making items during combat? It was easy to deduce . Kruger analyzed Grid’s items using the Legendary Tailor’s Eye skill and was making a new item to counter them . This was certainly an amazing ability . Kruger had the ability to make items in real time to weaken his opponent’s strength and lead the battle in a favorable way .
‘But this time, he met the wrong opponent . ’
Grid smiled confidently and put the Enlightenment Blade back in his inventory . The weapon he pulled out was Alex’s Magic Engineering Bayonet .
‘While you are making an item . . . ’
Clink! Clink clink!
The magic bayonet started to change . It became a one meter long sniper rifle with a rough scope . The smooth ivory beauty of the gun barrel seemed to capture the hearts of others . Grid grasped it with both hands . The item making Kruger was 80 meters away .
That’s right . Grid was going to utilized the ‘fixed instant death’ function attached to the sniper mode of the magic engineering bayonet . At a distance of 80 meters, Grid had to spend two minutes aiming . But time wasn’t a penalty for him right now . Kruger was involved in making an item so he had enough time .
‘Kruger, it is over the moment you finish . ’
Grid leaned forward and targeted Kruger . His act of breathing was skillful . There was no shaking as the South Korean army man aimed at Kruger’s head .
‘I will end it in one blow . ’
Kkuok!
Grid’s long, thick finger was fixed on the trigger . Kruger squatted in the transparent barrier and was still making an item . He never imagined that Grid would snipe him in a few minutes . At the same time, the 62nd island .
"He misjudged . . . !"
Sticks was alarmed as he watched Grid in the crystal ball . It was because Grid misunderstood the concept of instant death when it came to the undead .
"A death knight doesn’t experience instant death . . . !”
Instantaneous death techniques act by counterattacking an enemy’s life . ’ In other words, it was a power that acted absolutely on a living being . And the undead were dead . There was no life force to wipe out so the instant death was nullified . Grid shouldn’t have forgotten this fact . He was someone who was protected from death because he had the ‘immortal’ skill . It was silly for him to forget the concept of the undead .
‘No, isn’t it unavoidable?’
Sticks was regretting Grid’s stupidity, only to realize Grid’s position . In the era that Grid was living in, peace had been maintained for hundreds of years thanks to the performance and sacrifice of the former legends . Humans developed and monsters didn’t thrive . In particular, undead were monsters that couldn’t exist if there were no corpses . Thus, their appearance was thoroughly prevented .
In other words, it was a lack of experience . Grid didn’t know about the undead . He had also never used an instant death skill, one of the greatest techniques in history .
'Then he’ll have to drink a bitter cup . . . !’
Taaang!
In the crystal ball . Grid fired the moment the barrier was lifted from Kruger . Sticks thought that Grid would be in a great crisis . Death Knight Kruger would resist the instant death and hit Grid with a deadly counterattack . It turned out like he expected .
Puok!
Kruger charged through the bullet from the sniper rifle, threw a needle at Grid and Grid allowed it . He was facing a crisis . Sticks cheered Grid on .
“Overcome it . . . ! This is a costly price for learning, but if you keep your concentration . . . !”
***
[Shooting the target!]
Peeeeeong!
The sniper rifle roared and shot a bullet .
“Ugh . . . !”
Grid gritted his teeth . It was due to the large recoil, despite the fact that he was on the ground and his body position was firm . Yura’s strength was much lower than Grid and she was likely to get dislocated from using this sniper rifle .
Peeeeeong!
Immediately after completing the item . The Kruger running to Grid was pierced by a mana bullet . Grid had consumed a huge 2,000 mana for that bullet . Grid naturally thought that Kruger would die .
Kiyaaaaaaah!
"What?”
Kruger was fine . Despite there being a holel in the center of the skull, not one point of the health gauge had been consumed and Kruger kept rushing to Grid .
“Damn!”
The confused Grid hurriedly swapped his weapon . He recalled the sniper rifle to his inventory and pulled out the Enlightenment Blade . Kruger reached Grid and fired dozens of needles .
Chaeng!
Chaeeeeeng!
Grid used Quick Movements to evade the needles .
Puk! Puuoooook!
However, Kruger acted promptly in this gap . He approached and stabbed Grid’s chest directly with a needle .
[You have suffered 1,570 damage . ]
[You have been stabbed in a blood vessel . Your blood flow isn’t smooth . Health recovery is blocked for 20 seconds . ]
[You can’t resist . ]
[You have suffered 1,390 damage . ]
[An abnormality has occurred in your joints . Your left arm is paralyzed for the next 13 seconds . ]
[You can’t resist . ]
[You have suffered 1,642 damage . ]
[There is a reflux of mana . Use skills with caution . ]
[You can’t resist . ]
“Crazy!”
It was the moment when Grid witnessed the proper use of dexterity . Kruger used his thousands of dexterity to precisely aim for the gaps between Triple Layers, causing critical damage to Grid . Not only did he suffer more damage than when his armor was stabbed, he also suffered from various conditions . But Grid was calm .
“Magic Missile!”
[You have failed to activate Magic Missile . ]
[Your health will suffer three times the mana that was consumed by the failure . ]
Grid made a very smart judgment . Kruger’s needle prevented the one-time use of a skill, so Grid minimized the damage by using a skill that consumed the least mana . While Quick Movements was maintained, he focused on avoiding Kruger’s needles and started the sword dance of Pagma’s Swordsmanship . It was Link .
Pit!
Pipipipipit!
Kruger couldn’t respond . It was because at least 20 energy blades were fired at him .
Kwa kwang!
Kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa!
The speed of the energy blades gave the illusion that the flow of time had stopped . As Sticks watched in the crystal ball, the power of Link was combined with the Enlightenment Blade . Black flames erupted a total of nine times with Kruger in the centre .
‘Good!’
Grid didn’t doubt his victory . He prepared to put an end to Kruger by continuing this offensive . But that resolution lasted for only a moment . Grid was shocked when he saw the successive notification windows in front of him .
[The option effect of the Sword Born from Enlightenment and Strong Desires has dealt 30% additional fire damage to the target!]
[The target has neutralized the flames . ]
[The option effect of the Sword Born from Enlightenment and Strong Desires has added 5,000 fire damage!]
[The target has neutralized the flames . ]
[The option effect of the Sword Born from Enlightenment and Strong Desires has dealt 30% additional dark damage to the target!]
[The target has maximized the darkness . The target’s dark attribute damage will increase by 10% . ]
[Darkness is the power of the undead . ]
[The target has recovered 98,500 health . ]
[The option effect ‘Black Flames’ has activated from the Sword Born from Enlightenment and Strong Desires!]
[The target has failed to neutralize the black flames . ]
[You have dealt 667,940 damage to the target!]
“This bastard!”
Link dealt much less damage to Kruger than Grid expected . It was due to the power of the cloth item that Kruger made for 10 minutes . Kruger had weakened the power of the Enlightenment Blade by wearing cloth that maximized the dark attribute and blocked the fire attribute .
It was admirable that he could maximize the dark attribute that was an advantage to him while blocking the flames . He might be a death knight, but named NPCs had very high intelligence . Fortunately, the black flames were an independent attribute that didn’t belong to either the darkness or fire attribute . Kruger couldn’t block the black flames and suffered great damage .
Kik .
Kkikikikik!
The joints of Kruger’s right leg were broken by the explosion . Kruger fired a few needles at Grid and retreated . Then a barrier was once again unfolded . He wanted to create a new item!
“Again!”
Grid trembled .
He needed to keep up his flow of concentration in battle so it was annoying that it kept being interrupted . He was once again convinced of the wicked personality of the Satisfy creators .
[For the next 20 minutes, the legendary tailor Kruger will make an item!]
"An additional 10 minutes?”
Grid was shocked by Kruger’s ability to make items and disable the instant death . His mental shock was doubled at the thought of having to wait here for another 20 minutes . On the other hand, Sticks watched the crystal ball and prayed earnestly .
"Grid, you have to defeat Kruger in order to cleanse the 63rd island . If this keeps repeating, Kruger will become stronger than you and your odds will disappear . ”
Please, please . He hoped that Grid would discover this fact . Sticks desperately wanted his heart to reach Grid, but it didn’t . Grid wasn’t even thinking about this . Just .
"Yes, I will do the same . ”
“ . . . . !!”
Sticks’ eyes widened . It was because in the crystal ball, Grid was taking out a portable furnace and blacksmithing hammer .
"T-This method . . . !”
An eye for an eye! This was it! Confront item making by making an item! Sticks admired Grid’s idea and determination .
