Episode 154:
The legendary monster Kraken!
The guy who caused a world change just by appearing was now receiving a true education.
Sigh! X’s slash cuts through the Kraken’s tough body with ease.
[Fatal blow!]
Gurgling!
Every time X’s attack landed, the Kraken wriggled violently. It was an amazing sight even for warriors who had experienced countless battles between life and death.
Stumbling.
Gunsmer, who was balancing on the vibrating kraken’s leg, let out a cheerful laugh.
“Haha, what a ridiculous spectacle! I can’t believe I’m beating up this monster all by myself. It’s a greater talent than that. “He’s not only good at fighting, he’s also good at magic!”
puck! Elex, who was focusing his attack on the legs, helped out.
“Why are you playing around? This is a man who easily defeated us. Of course you have to do that.”
Elex responded calmly, but he also couldn’t help but be impressed. Not only does he have flashy movements, powerful strength, and flashing magic, he even has cooking skills!
What on earth can X not do?
In fact, X himself was shocked.
‘…isn’t it different every day?’
To avoid being noticed, Thanks to this, I briefly forgot about the equipment that boasts overwhelming abilities.
Equipment worn for the first time in a while. When the various set effects combined with the increased stats, a tremendous synergistic effect was achieved.
“Hyukseombeop!”
Suddenly!
Among them, the Massacre Tracker played a significant role, increasing the user’s total attack power by 5%. Moreover, the overlapping effect of titles accumulated through various achievements as well as heavenly cooking could not be ignored.
So even Kraken, a level 900 legendary monster, was no match for X.
This was when the 7th critical hit hit the torso. The Kraken, which was struggling in pain, stopped moving. The infamous legendary monster is starting to turn gray!
“Huh already?”
X virtually defeated the Kraken by himself!
The Kurula warriors roared as they witnessed the beginning of a new legend.
“X! X! X!”
“It is the emergence of a new hero!”
“X! X!”
Amid the shouts, Bjolaf acknowledged.
“It was my arrogant mistake.”
A battle from the past that was not a winner.
That the loser that day was yourself. It was actually X who looked after him. Even if he was a great warrior, he couldn’t have defeated the Kraken so easily.
Tiroling!
‘How long will this ring?’
There was a constant stream of notifications in X’s ears.
[The level has risen!]
[The level has risen!]
[The level has risen!]
[The level has risen!]
…
The Kraken boasts a whopping level 900! As if that wasn’t enough, it is a legendary level monster.
The experience points commensurate with the overwhelming level and abilities easily surpass the boss monsters. Although Bjolaf and the warriors kept the Kraken in check, most of the contribution was made by X.
“Is this the best record?”
The level rose 12 steps in an instant. Following the overwhelming rapid level up.
Tiroling!
[You have acquired the title ‘Legendary Hunter’!]
Legendary Hunter: Defeated a legendary level monster. Each time a legendary level monster is defeated, damage dealt to all enemies increases by 1%. Additionally, the proficiency of all skills increases by 1%.
(Number of legendaries hunted so far: 1)
‘Crazy. As if increasing damage isn’t enough, it also increases skill proficiency?! Even the basic skills that are difficult to raise?!’
He even acquired a title with a morale effect commensurate with his achievements.
It was indeed a reward from a legendary level monster.
but.
“…It’s not over yet.”
Burning fire!
X still didn’t seem satisfied.
Instead of being satisfied, I held on to the golden hand that never betrayed my faith and prayed earnestly.
‘Oh God. This is my first time seeing a legendary level monster. So, how can you not have a little beginner’s luck?’
Kraken’s corpse!
After finishing a short prayer, X activated Heavenly Capture.
The Kraken’s huge body began to glow.
Item windows appeared before X’s eyes.
-Kraken’s leg meat (unique)
Despite its ugly appearance, it has a very light taste.
It has a unique savory taste.
Saturation: +100%
Special Effect: No penalty for eating without cooking. When consumed, increases maximum stamina by 100 points and strength by 1 point. (Can be consumed multiple times)
The first was the ingredients.
Indeed, as a unique ingredient, it has excellent effects. Not only will it fetch a high price if you sell it at the auction house, but it will bring even more benefits to X, who has heavenly taste! The amount was also enormous, commensurate with the enormous size of the Kraken.
-Kraken’s Pupil (Unique)
The Kraken’s pupil pierces the abyss. It still has magical power.
Special Effect: When crafting into equipment, the passive skill ‘Eyes of the Abyss’ is given to the equipment. The effect of the Abyssal Eye varies depending on the skill level of the creator.
(Eyes of the Abyss: Reveals the enemy’s weakness with a certain probability.)
The second was a material item.
An incredible effect that grants skills to equipment! The passive skill granted was also a very useful skill that revealed the opponent’s weaknesses. If you attack a weak point, you will inevitably get a critical hit.
“…!!”
And X’s eyebrows twitched as he checked the last item.
Greedy X, who had not lost his composure despite the succession of unique items, let out a small sigh.
“omg…?”
-Abyss Queen’s Whip (Unique)
A whip that symbolizes the Kraken, the ruler of the Abyss.
Because it is anomalous, it is quite difficult to deal with.
The effect is sealed.
Limit: Level 850↑ Intelligence 4000↑ Strength 1500↑
Attack Power: +800
Strength: +300
Intelligence: +500
Special Effects: ?
The level limit is a whopping 850.
Even in auction houses where numerous items are exchanged, what you can’t easily find are items with a level limit of 600 or higher.
It was natural. This is because the level of Songwol, currently number one in the rankings, was only in the mid-500s. But it’s a unique weapon with a level limit of 850!
Regardless of the price, it was like an item from the future.
‘…Wait a minute, what kind of baseless abilities are these?!’
X, who was initially surprised, was surprised again. What class is it set to use? A whip that requires both considerable strength and tremendous intelligence.
‘It’s a miniature version of the real Kraken.’
Procrastination.
The word anomalous couldn’t be better said than this. Even though it was not a legendary grade item, the atmosphere it gave off from the exterior was unusual.
Just by looking at its sleek appearance, you can tell that it is ultra-high level equipment.
“…Hahaha!!”
The laughter I had been suppressing burst out.
It’s level 850, so I don’t know when I’ll be able to wear it, and I don’t know what effect it has yet, but it’s like getting a weapon with incredible specifications for free.
After all, it’s best to eat it all by yourself!
“You have all the qualities of a warrior, including a lively smile!”
“Anyway, the Kraken is slowly sinking?”
“Oh, let’s hurry up and get back to the ship!”
Despite the untimely commotion of the warriors, X’s madness did not easily stop.
*
Kraken’s leg meat packed tightly into a spacious ship!
The warehouse was basic, and even the cabin was filled with Kraken leg flesh. Thanks to this, the fishy smell did not leave near the ship.
This atrocity could not have been the work of Kurula’s warriors.
Vjolaf asked X sincerely.
“Are you possessed by a ghost that starved to death?”
“No matter what you do, everything turns into blood and flesh.”
“Hmm, no matter what, this is….”
It didn’t look good in terms of aesthetics or hygiene. Still, what can be done? The main character of the day and the person who holds the livelihood of the warriors was X.
Sizzle!
Kraken’s leg meat grilled until golden brown.
‘We all worked hard together, so we should give back. ‘Nothing like cancer.’
The leisure of those who have it!
Thanks to the harvest from Kraken, X is more merciful than ever. Moreover, Kraken’s leg meat is ultimately seafood, so the fresher it is, the more effective it is.
Since there was no shortage of food, X spoke softly.
“It’s done. Come and eat!”
To be honest, it wasn’t an intense battle, but self-congratulation was something that couldn’t be left out.
The warriors were talking and tearing at the flesh of the Kraken’s legs. Naturally, the center of attention was X.
The excited warriors handed him beer glasses, but X shook his head.
“Tsk tsk, I’m fine.”
Because it was impossible to fill your stomach with beer while eating food that had an ecstatic effect.
Eat and cook, eat and cook!
X played with his hands busier than ever.
Tiroling!
[Heavenly taste has discovered the hidden taste in ‘Salty Kraken Pickles’!]
[Maximum stamina increases by 2000 points!]
[Strength increases by 15 points!]
“Tsk tsk, you should prepare in advance.”
X was not the type to just watch the precious Kraken’s leg meat rot away.
Properly trimmed kraken legs were pickled in salt to allow them to be stored longer.
I soaked dozens of Kraken salted fish like that, but now only one piece of Kraken leg meat was missing. Cheer up. The corners of X’s mouth rose.
‘There is no such thing as a cruise trip!’
Before long, the dinner on the rocking ship was over. Most of the warriors had entered the cabin, but X was still straining his stomach.
“Oh, this is also a huge effect, isn’t it?”
How can I say I ate perfectly?
Bjolaf spoke to X, who was studying the Kraken with enthusiasm.
“I heard from my grandfather that the Gourmet King was also a huge glutton, and it seems like you are no less than him. Does that strength come from the belly?”
“It’s like that.”
“There is no need to answer in a hurry. “I have no intention of disturbing you.”
Vjolaf’s attitude toward X has become much softer. As Gunsmer said, Bjolaf was a man who liked talking to people.
Vjolaf laughed slightly.
“Hehe, I didn’t know that I would be going into battle one after another at this age. “Just the battle with the worshiper is tiring, but the bloody voyage… I’m also a bit impatient.”
“Tsk tsk, honestly, I think you have quite a bit of that side.”
Bjolaf’s ax flew in as soon as its identity was revealed.
Bjolaf, stung by X’s answer, struck first.
“The voyage is not over yet, but there is no need to doubt your sincerity any longer. “I would like to formally apologize for my hasty actions.”
“It’s okay. “This is just a little bit.”
It was true. Because there was also Liglian, who took his life at the very first sight.
As the conversation continued, Bjolaf heaped praise on X.
“I think the term ‘disciple’ fits perfectly with the teacher.”
Even praise comparable to that of a great sage!
The voyage wasn’t over yet, so they didn’t talk about anything important, but Bjolaf chatted for a long time by X’s side.
Bjolaf, who stood up for the last time, added:
“There is no voyage more reassuring than this with you. But you can’t let your guard down. Because the end of the world is full of ‘things whose limits cannot be measured.’”
It was a significant warning.
X nodded silently.
‘Then I am welcome!’
For a legendary monster, the Kraken felt too easy.
Even better loot from a monster stronger than the Kraken! Anticipation welled up from a corner of my heart.
X’s expectations soon became reality.
So much so that it far exceeds our high expectations!
*
When the day changes and we push through the rough waves like always.
Hunriquel, who was watching the distant sea next to the helmsman, shouted urgently. The face turned white.
“That’s the enemy!!”
The first person to react was of course X!
‘Good.’
X was waiting anxiously to see when they would show up.
First of all, the huge shadow waving beneath the water looked smaller than the Kraken’s.
‘I didn’t dive too deep, so it would be effective, right?’
Magic Arrow, whose power and rate of fire have increased thanks to increased proficiency.
Shoo shoo shoo! Mana arrows poured out from X’s fingers.
“…!!”
When you are attacked or succeed in attacking first, information about the opponent comes to mind. Because of this, X had figured out the guy’s identity. X stuttered.
“…Your level is 1200?!”
Things that have no limits!
They were welcoming the ship that had entered the end of the world.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
