Mob MC 71.1

Test

Chapter 71.1. My Name Is Thunder Gale


King Mantis is furious, but it knows its HP is not decreasing. I have only plucked the wings off its back. I have to be careful because if my mom finds out that I plucked an insect's wings, she'll be furious. If she gets mad at me, I'll just apologize and tell her she shouldn't be so cruel. Mii-chan is a good girl.

And I know that King Mantis isn't that angry.

"Giiiiiii!"

King Mantis comes out again with six scythes at different times. But its attack is lackluster, and in front of me, it's just an attraction.

In other words, it's playground equipment I can play with without risking my life.

I dodge the scythe like a dancer. Since the phantom is still around, it couldn't hit me more, so it's easy to evade it.

Its attacks don't hit me, and I move so quickly that I need a metal slice. My afterimages increase and the enemy's attacks become more and more difficult to connect to me.

[Weapon Unlock IV]

I exhale and slash away at the approaching arm with a sharp sword strike. However, it only damaged the skin and didn't cut its arm. I still couldn't activate it against a superior opponent. Is [Hide] necessary?

I guess I'll have to be steady and cut them down. This guy's HP is huge. I'll cry if others come and hit me sideways in the middle.

Outside the storm wall, the old samurai man and the warriors are discussing whether the wards will somehow disappear or not, or whether they're smashing magic. Too bad, magic can't make them disappear.

However, it is only a skill effect. I have no idea how long it will last. So I will have to defeat King Mantis as soon as possible.

In that case, it’s still the best stealing technique, yeah.

"I'm gonna take him down all at once!"

I fly up to the six meter height where the King Mantis' head is and approach with a ton. King Mantis swings its scythe to intercept me.

First, it uses a sweeping slash. As the scythe, which is as long as I am tall, comes at me, I gently put my foot on the scythe with a soft step. Due to her incredible body technique, Miu's leg isn't cut, and her body is carried to the side, so she lands with a roll.

Next comes the diagonal slash. It attacks with its opposite arm. The other arm swung up sharply, but it was aiming for my afterimage, so I let it go through.

I leaned and ducked toward the coming scythe with the diagonal slash, and with my foot on the blade of the sword, I began to climb up the wall. This is the art of wall-running, Mii-chan. For Thief IV, this is like twisting a baby's hand. I feel sorry for the baby, so I'll use the mantis' legs.

I guess it didn't expect me to climb the scythe. King Mantis hurriedly launches a diagonal slash from both sides.

"That's a bad move."

The oncoming scythe attack had no momentum and was too big to catch me. It's a mantis, after all, and it can't learn.

"And!"

I put all my strength into my legs and jumped, accelerating. The scythe passes right next to me at great speed. I leaned my body, using the scythe as a wall, kicked it, and climbed up in a zigzag manner, using it as a wall, like a triangle jump.

As the head of the king mantis approached, it would open its jaws and threaten me. If it bit me, it would probably cut my torso in half.

However, after it swung its scythe, King Mantis stuck its head out and could not attack with a bite. It was because it would lose its stance. If the mantis had the intelligence of a human, it would have feinted without hesitation, but it was only a mantis. It was only the head of an insect. Even if they are somewhat intelligent, they will act on instinct in a crisis. It could have been an act, but it didn't even make a gesture of biting.

"That's why they're bugs!"

[Sandstorm IV]

With a quick wave of her hand to the side, a cloud of dust covers King Mantis' face. The technique [Sandstorm] takes away my opponent's vision. It's level IV, so it's pretty effective.

"Gii, Giii."

King Mantis shakes its head and tries to get out of the cloud of dust, but alas, it's a skill. That effect doesn't go away.

"You've shown a fatal gap!"

[Hide IV]

King Mantis, who had poor visibility due to the effect of the [Sandstorm], easily lost sight of Miu as she hid in front of him.

Hiding in space, I stepped on King Mantis' chin and floated softly to ready my Queen Dagger. I'm going to do some serious damage here.

With a chakiri, I ready my Queen Dagger and dance it toward the King Mantis' head.

[Surprise Strike]

Unlike [Vital Thrust], which kills instantly and greatly increases the criticality probability, [Surprise Strike] has a high attack damage multiplier. It can also inflict one of these mental abnormalities on the enemy: confusion, daze, or stun.

A blow to the neck causes green blood to gush out and King Mantis' huge body to shake. A smoke effect floats above King Mantis' head.

It's [Daze]. You're in luck. [Confusion] returns your enemy to sanity when it takes damage, and [Stun] leaves your enemy defenseless for one turn. But [Daze] made your enemy for at least one turn. On average, your enemy gets stunned for two turns. And, if you attack while your opponent had [Daze], you will always get a critical hit.

Even if you don't get a critical hit, it's a martial arts attack with a dagger specially designed for insects. It did quite a bit of damage. I clutched the dagger tightly in my tiny hand, wondering if anyone but I could see the abnormal status effects.

I call up the status board in front of me and check my remaining MP. I think I can do it. I can win solo.
