Chapter 172: Head On Encounter



“Kichichichichichiin!”

After I adjust my posture, I approach the giant centipede .

In the event that I fail, there is one thing that I can do . I concentrate magic in my throat, target the giant centipede and shoot everything out at once .

“GUUOOOO!”

The stagnant miasma breath assaults the giant centipede . It’s [[Plague Breath]] . It will take time for its effects to truly appear, so I can’t rely on that, but it does act as a smokescreen .

I think I’d go crazy if my skill level increased and I evolved, so I want to use [[Scorching Breath]], but it’s visible to the enemy . In fact, I’ve experienced enemies charging through without hesitation despite me using [[Scorching Breath]] to slow them down .

For the giant centipede, a breath-like attack will not be able to penetrate its shell, with [[Scorching Breath]], the chances of defeating it will be slim . To begin with, my objective isn’t to deal damage, so it’s possible that it would think that this is strange and would slow down its movements by a few seconds .

Besides, it doesn’t seem to be that easy to raise the skill level .

[Normal Skill [[Plague Breath]] has leveled up from 3 to 4]

……as expected from God’s Voice-san, you really did it . Your voice came, right at the moment I show an opening, I really felt that stab coming at me . I really dislike this . Maybe it’s just telling me to give me an update .

I fly upwards from within the miasma . I kick the centipede’s head, spread my wings, and ride the wind to gain some distance . Turning my back on the centipede that has shown itself by cutting through the miasma, I then used [[Roll]] to run away .

The attempt to use the plan ‘KO with [[Nutcracker]]’ has failed . From now on its response will be faster . To begin with, if he gets some distance the moment I’m in the air and then waits for me to land, it’s over . This technique is applicable provided that the giant centipede charges at me, sort of like, a counter when at a disadvantage . It relies on the opponent’s actions . My strategy to use [[Nutcracker]] on the giant centipede cannot be used anymore .

When it comes to this, there is no other option but to use other strategies . I still have another method for this . This is also a counter which relies on the giant centipede’s actions, though compared to the strategy for [[Nutcracker]] it has a lot of uncertainties, and it also possesses a high risk if it fails, but this is the only method left .

When I need to prioritise escaping, speed and attack strength will become a problem . During that time, the important thing is how fast I can move . However, when my objective is to defeat it, defense will become a problem . The important thing is, can I smash that giant centipede’s shell? Naturally, my options are limited .

If I am able to smash that shell and am left with no other methods to attack anymore, when that time comes, there is no need to think about what to do . If this fails, I might die . It’s possible to get killed . This time for sure, I will be able to remove that centipede .

“KICHICHICHICHICHICHICHICHICHICHICHICHICHII!”

The giant centipede releases an unpleasant noise . “Coward, come here and face me in battle”, is the feeling I’m getting .

Of course, to face it up front and fight it fair and square is something I would decline doing . If that happened I would definitely lose . Why do I have to agree to a fight where the opponent has the advantage?

But, because I’m getting tired or due to the giant centipede becoming enraged, the distance between us did not increase at all . Rather, the distance is rapidly becoming narrower and narrower . I cannot hold this for long . [[Plague Breath]] was supposed to have been completely absorbed, and I considered that [[Curse]] might start taking effect and that the centipede might weaken if I started an endurance race and ran away for a whole day, but it doesn’t seem like I could do that .

If the chase is prolonged, I will be struck by the centipede beam again . Whether I can dodge that, it is a game with quite bad luck .

On the far right, a big hill can be seen . It fits the assumed conditions . Right, here I go, this time I will fight back .

I intend to use up my physical strength and raise the speed of [[Roll]] all at once . A prolonged escape is not necessary . Here, I have reached the desired distance .

“GUUOOOOO!”

I safely crossed the top of the targeted hill . Right, from this temporary strategic position, I should be able to hide myself from the giant centipede .

I slowly decelerate and make a fast turn . I rush up the descending slope all at once . From the direction where I escape to, turning towards the direction of frontal collision .

With this timing, the collision with the giant centipede should happen at the top of the hill . It’ll depend on my opponent’s actions, but it doesn’t mean that there is no chance to win . No, other than this method, I can’t think of any other way to break through that giant centipede .

That is why, I have to do it .

The melee skill of that giant centipede has 2 flaws . First of all, the giant centipede’s melee ability has an unexpectedly big gap . I was afraid when I met it the first time and could hardly notice it . Its motion is quite big . At most, that part of the movement is fast…… even so, if you watch it carefully, you should be able to avoid the first hit .

From there, there is a second flaw . Because, even when the giant centipede has that huge body, its attack pattern is mainly focused around its skills .

‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Normal skill:

[[Poison LV5]] [[Dig LV6]] [[Sand Breath LV4]]

[[Clay Wall LV3]] [[Paralysis Bite LV2]] [[Acid Spit LV4]]

[[Heat Ray LV4]]

‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Spitting poison, breathing out a sandstorm, spitting acid saliva, a bite attack enhanced with paralysis, and attacking with a charged-up mouth beam . I see, this guy can only do decent attacks with the mouth . Even if it has such a huge body . For everything else, the skill to dig and the skill to create a sand wall are creation magic .

This stupid giant centipede doesn’t have a skill for his main body . If it wanted to utilise its body, at best, it can only use the hardness of the shell and move at a high speed to bash you with its body .

Even so, it is still a threat . The frightening part of the giant centipede is that it is able to fire danger from its mouth, it is much worse than the skill . In truth, it seemed almost helpless against the red ants that had flocked from the side .

So, this should work . When we collide at the top of the hill, I will provoke the giant centipede while dodging its one-hit attack .

If it’s a normal collision, I’ll be easily caught and will end up in its mouth, but the giant centipede still hasn’t realised that I am going the other way around .

Facing against me who jumped out in a hurry, its reaction should be delayed a little . In the exchange of life, that “little” is a critical thing . The lethality of the skill used will also increase . Because of the surprise attack, I have a good chance of dodging the giant centipede’s attack .

If I can get over its head, I can go around to the main body which has less capability to fight back . Starting from there it will be a critical period .
