Damn Netromancer (126)
While the training of the awakened people was entrusted to guild members and corps commanders.
The warlocks’ laboratory in the temple. There, Minwoo Kim was working on alchemy.
Actually, to be precise, he wasn’t selling out.
[Apprentice alchemist 234 uses elven alchemy (D)… … .]
[Apprentice Alchemist 342 is Elf style… … .]
[Great failure!]
[This is a combination recipe that can never be used as a potion! Skills do not accumulate!]
[Great failure!]
.
.
It’s just skeletons rolling around.
Ifrax’s mental attack.
In the first place, touching someone else’s mind was a very high-level field.
It is nearly impossible to create a potion that can block something like that using only D-grade alchemy. You have to be at least S-class to be able to make it.
So I changed my idea.
Do you really need a mental defense potion to block mental attacks?
In Kim Min-woo’s opinion, it didn’t really seem like anything.
In the first place, mental attack was not an ability that enslaved people as soon as they saw it, like some kind of mind control.
With that kind of power, it is a power close to that of a god.
‘God is no joke.’
Did he have that much power in the first place?
All black magicians, including priests, would have already been treated as slaves.
‘If you’re restricted at the sealed level… … .’
If you play it well, you will have the ability to turn it into a puppet by spending time on it.
In the end, it is said that there is a time before it shakes and binds the mind.
If you use that gap well, you can easily disrupt mental attacks. This was the reason why the skeletons were rolling around like they were dying.
It was a labor that lasted for three whole days.
“It’s almost time to give something to me… … .”
It was then.
[success!]
[‘A stinking potion so tasteless that even an ogre who starved for 100 days would shake his head’ has been created!]
[A new alchemy recipe has been discovered! It will be added to the list!]
[Apprentice alchemists gain valuable experience!]
[Explosion of know-how!]
[success!]
[‘A tickling potion that will make even an experienced devil cry’ was created… … .]
[success!]
[‘Destructive Sneezing Potion’… … .]
[New alchemy recipes discovered! It will be added to the list!]
[Proficiency in elven alchemy (D) increases.]
“Are you awake?”
The skeletons politely offered the potion. He held them and looked at their contents.
[A stinking potion so tasteless that even an ogre who has starved for 100 days would shake his head]
[Grade: Unique+]
[The first masterpiece from a creator steeped in madness. It’s like a potion where everything tastes bad and smells in the world has been poured into it.]
[Effect 1. Too spicy, salty, sour, bitter, and disgusting. The savory flavor explodes here.]
[Effect 2. Indescribable pain continues to be inflicted on taste and smell during ingestion (2 hours)]
[A tickling potion that will make even an experienced devil cry]
[Grade: Rare+]
[The second masterpiece by a producer steeped in madness. Drinking it is not recommended.]
[Effect 1. If you drink it, you will feel the tickling sensation of ants crawling all over your body. (1 hour and 30 minutes)]
[Destructive Sneezing Potion]
[Grade: Magic+]
[The third work by a creator steeped in madness. At least this is a bit humane.]
[Effect 1. Drinking it makes you sneeze. (1 hour)]
“oh.”
Kim Min-woo exclaimed admiration after seeing the contents. Since there are no such lists in elf recipes, I tried making a potion by combining all the ingredients I thought were related.
“Unique has appeared?”
A lot of hard work over the past three days.
I was glad that it wasn’t in vain. Now that the recipe has been registered, infinite copies can be made by simply adding the ingredients.
‘There’s one there that’s rare.’
The power may be more terrible than you think.
‘I think I should try an experiment… … .’
It’s a matter of life.
Power verification is essential.
I had to try this myself to feel at ease. He picked up the stink potion and swallowed.
“… … “Err.”

He closed his eyes tightly and swallowed the contents.
gulp.
An explosive feast of flavor felt as soon as the liquid touches the tongue.
The stench was so bad that it felt like food had been fermenting in a sewer for decades.
“Uweek!”
I felt nauseous as a spinal reflex.
The reason I didn’t collapse was because of my experience of going through all the hardships before birth.
“Huh. “Huh.”
He quickly took out a peppermint candy from his inventory.
Even though I stuffed ten of them into my mouth, I still felt the horrible taste and stench.
Rather, it felt like it became even weirder as the cool scent of mint mixed in. I immediately realized what a pain that cannot be explained in words is.
“That’s it.”
There is a saying that even if you enter a tiger’s den, you will survive as long as you keep your wits about you.
The same goes for mental attacks.
If the victim could keep his mind clear, time could be significantly delayed.
Pain is one of the best effects to wake you up.
I took a sip of both rare and magic grade potions.
It’s a bit worse than Unique, but it’s still powerful enough.
‘I didn’t even want to block it completely.’
11 light bombs.
To begin with, it wasn’t a fight that would last long. When all the bombs explode, either he dies or we die.
“Hitch! Make these. “As much as possible.”
Click!
The loyal skeletons began to move diligently.
* * *
Kim Min-woo, who was unable to leave the temple’s laboratory for three days.
No one could access it.
Training was so intense from morning to evening that there was no time to visit.
This was because the two corps commanders, who did not sleep between night and dawn, stood guard at the entrance.
At least only guild members came in and out. Therefore, curiosity could not help but increase.
‘What on earth are you doing that won’t come out?’
The leader of the awakened people gathered here was Kim Min-woo, even if no one said it.
Because the four strongest instructors already thought so.
But, what on earth is a leader doing at this important moment when they need to come together?
When my curiosity grows day by day.
Minwoo Kim finally appeared. He also led skeletons holding a box full of strange potions.
“Please stop training for a moment and gather everyone together.”
Forty-two awakened people gathered like that.
Minwoo Kim explained to them the information about Eprax that he had gathered so far.
“therefore… … “Are you saying it’s a monster that controls minds, uses curses, and has special abilities?”
“yes. “I looked through the literature whenever I had time, and that’s what it said.”
Alchemy is used by skeletons, not Minwoo Kim.
Thanks to this, I was able to browse books in my spare time. Finding a hidden space in the priest’s room was a bonus.
There was a book written about Iprax’s abilities.
Abilities that were thoroughly analyzed and explored by past priests.
‘They must have prepared in their own way.’
That was the perception from the beginning.
It’s not God.
Recognize that it is a dangerous monster.
I feel scared, etc… … .
Despite their title as priests, they were clearly wary of Iprax. It may have been because of that wariness that the monster’s abilities and power were thoroughly analyzed.
Thanks to this, Minwoo Kim was promoted.
Because I was able to understand the enemy’s power and authority in detail even before the raid started.
“You can prepare for the curse with the blessings of the priests. “You can prepare for mental attacks with this.”
The skeletons that followed picked up three potions and handed them to the awakeners.
Astonishment passed through the eyes of the awakened people who saw the detailed explanation.
“… … A potion that will make even an ogre who has starved for 100 days shake his head?”
“… … “Do even seasoned devils cry?”
The only modifier that was okay in its own way was ‘catastrophe.’
Of course, since they were experts with their own experience, they had a rough guess as to why they were handing out such a potion.
The monster’s main power is mental attack. At first glance, it seems like there are a lot of problems for him to endure with the mental strength of an A-class awakened person.
‘I guess that’s why he gave me the potion.’
The only problem is that the modifier is too harsh. How dare you give a unique and rare rating to a trash item that has no special benefits.
‘Now that I think about it, I heard they sell + potion in Ilseong… … .’
‘Did that alchemist make something like this? ‘Your tastes are really weird.’
The detailed explanation seemed to indicate that he was kind enough to describe him as a ‘manufacturer steeped in madness.’
It was equally difficult for Kim Min-woo, who came up with such a strange story before the selection, to understand.
No matter how many subspace rings there were, it was to the point where I wondered if there was really any space left, so that’s all said and done.
“Everyone will have a certain sense of the basics, and now we will move to the advanced level by taking potions. Do you understand?”
“that… … “Isn’t it okay to eat it when fighting monsters?”
“Why would someone who knows everything do that? You have to get used to it from now on, so you can move well after taking the potion. “Isn’t that right?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“Eat now. “This is more expensive than health food.”
The cost of ingredients alone to find the recipe is in the tens of billions. It was true that it was more expensive than most health foods.
gulp.
The awakened people looked at the potion with nervous faces.
One brave awakener was the first to step forward.
“Err!”
Thompson opens the potion with his sturdy arms and takes a gulp.
“… … Uweeeek!”
“ah! “Turn your head and do it!”
“Weeeeeek!” Don’t stop… … “Weeeeeek!”
The complexions of the awakened people turned pale.
An indescribable smell that spreads from the moment the lid is opened.
One thing is certain: just smelling it from afar was enough to make you feel nauseous.
‘Wow, we’re in big trouble.’
4 days left.
It seemed like hell was coming to life over royalties.
* * *
When 4 days have passed.
As soon as morning came, the awakened people gathered in one place.
“As everyone knows, we are going to attack him today. Like I said, he’ll throw a light bomb. singly. “It will probably be a step-by-step process.”
Everyone nodded.
They also knew about Efrax.
Besides mental attacks and curses.
‘I was told it could even relieve pain. ‘He’s trickier than you think.’
Pain relief.
Among the A-class gate bosses, there were several who had such abilities.
The effect was simple.
It was an ability to ignore a certain amount of damage if a large amount of damage was taken from a single blow.
The structure is such that the larger the one-shot deal, the larger the deal that is invalidated proportionally. If you do that, you can’t throw all the bombs at once. Because the damage reduction will be much greater.
at that time.
Minwoo Kim said with a grin.
“There’s nothing to be too nervous about. “Didn’t everyone work hard?”
“that… … Right. “I thought I was going to die because I was trying to get used to the potion the captain gave me.”
Thompson said with a wry smile.
Now, it wasn’t to the point where I would pass out and feel nauseous even if I took the potion.
It’s just a little, no, very disgusting.
“let’s go.”
I moved to the basement of the temple with the awakened people.
Through the wide magic circle, dark wizards could be seen tied up.
‘The conditions for appearance are… … .’
Do not offer sacrifices to the sealing camp.
Until now, we have been constantly offering sacrifices to warlocks.
But now the preparations are over.
There was no need for that anymore.
The undead army filled the basement. In between, the awakened people dug in. Awakened people holding weapons with a nervous look.
Raids that many people gather together to attempt are naturally high in difficulty.
Usually, one mistake leads to a goal. There was nothing surprising even if there were deaths.
Of course I couldn’t help but be nervous.
Minwoo Kim said while looking back.
“You just have to move as you practiced beforehand. “I can’t say for sure that there will be no deaths, but I think I can tell you one thing.”
He paused for a beat and said with a grin.
“The reward will be worth risking your life for. Well then, let’s get started.”
Right after.
Five blue arrows pierced between the eyes of the tied up warlocks.
A clean, instant death.
Rumbling… … !
The entire temple began to shake violently as if there had been an earthquake.
[There are no offerings on the seal!]
[Ifrax is very angry!]
[warning!]
[If you do not make a sacrifice to the seal within 10 minutes, Iprax will appear directly on the ground!]
On the first day, the ground shook loudly.
The reason it calmed down soon seemed to be because the offering was put up again within 10 minutes.
But I had no intention of doing so now. As time passed, the ground began to shake more and more violently.
Kkjjik… … !
Kkjjik… … !
Before long, the hole where the soul was sucked started to gradually crack.
A hole like a huge well appeared. It was so deep that the bottom seemed to go on forever.
[warning!]
[10 minutes have passed!]
[Iprax, the true ruler of the ‘Cursed Land’, appears!]
Something began to float beneath the hole. A monster with hundreds of eyeballs clustered together like grapes.
I drank the potion prepared by the awakened people.
Terrible.
Ifrax blinked.
Strategy, this is the beginning.
I threw a light bomb at him.
Cough!
A pure white explosion exploded above the pupils.
