Chapter 41 – Change of composition (1)
Serenian has summoned warriors to attack the dungeon, which has undergone a terrible mutation and has literally become a monster.
At first glance, it is a large-scale dungeon that is larger than a medium-sized dungeon. Since dozens of hunters were mobilized in such a place, so were the elves.
Dozens of elves armed with items I had put in, or items made from the corpses of demon beasts, were heading towards the barrier at the entrance of the dungeon with determined expressions.
‘I don’t know.’
It was still hard to get a sense of whether or not they would succeed in attacking. It’s been several years since I’ve been away from the field, and witch beasts and elves are people who deviate from my common sense in many ways.
The variant monsters that have changed excessively from their previous appearances looked more than a decent B-class monsters, but it wasn’t easy to guess because I wasn’t dealing with them myself.
“—?”
Some of them laughed at the drone flying beside them. However, there are a total of two drones that will be active this time. I control one, but Ren, who participated in the raid, controls the other.
“—-!”
Since then, Serenian, who was at the forefront, crossed the barrier as soon as he reached the barrier and stood at the entrance of the dungeon to line up those who followed him. Attempts to attack this place have already been attempted several times. Most of it was just exploration, but never as sincere as it is now.
A total war that literally mobilized all forces. She was planning to use this opportunity to attack this dungeon or deal a big blow.
‘It’s the army.’
As much as that resolution, what is shown now was different. It was not a party of 10 people, but dozens of heavily armed soldiers lined up, and it was like watching an army.
I hadn’t heard anything about the elves’ army, but I thought it might be similar to this one.
‘Are you finally going in?’
They soon began to slowly head into the dungeon.
The ones standing at the forefront were those armed with shields made of scrap metal, greatswords with cutter blades, and armor made from carapaces of pill bugs.
Followed by those armed with armor and spears, followed by elves armed with bows and arrows.
Serenian, with a quiver strapped to her back, was walking in the middle of the ranks with a bow in one hand and a hammer made from shattering pins in the other, with Ren holding the drone’s controller.
“–.”
One of the drones flying above their heads, including mine, flew quickly toward the front of the aisle as the surroundings were illuminated by a host of torches.
And there, he found enemies approaching this place, and after observing them, Ren shouted to announce the enemy’s approach.
‘Beast daughter-in-law, and many daughter-in-law.’
Now familiar monsters crawl on the ground. The elves who knew in advance naturally settled down and prepared for the first battle.
“–, —!
There was no reason to collide. While the heavily armored warriors were guarding the front with shields and armor, the archers in the back row fired arrows loaded with mana.
Ordinary pill bugs couldn’t stand the attack and stopped their actions by shedding bodily fluids from the punctured body.
“Is it strong?”
As if the mana-loaded arrow attack was negligible, the beastly mouse bugle rushed in without any damage and crashed into the wall made by the elven warriors, but as I admired it, it couldn’t pierce the shield and armor.
The strong ball, stronger than an arrow, was driven down by the sharp cutter blade, and the beastly bugger’s hard carapace, unable to withstand the blow, began to crack.
Then, he was eventually pierced through the head by a stabbing spear attack and was killed as it was.
A single elven could not stop the elves, who had now become an army.
‘But this is just the beginning.’
Of course, no one was satisfied with a victory like this. Their purpose is to see the end of this dungeon and claim the core.
After a light battle with the enemy sentinels, the elves stepped deeper into the cave.
‘At least 100.’
Insects whose numbers did not decrease no matter how many times they were killed failed to attack, and each time they tried again, their numbers increased to greet the elves.
A wide passage leading to a deeper place. A full-scale war began there. A war between elves and beasts. It is a war for each other’s survival.
As if the beasts had noticed the sincerity of the elves, who were showing a completely different spirit than before, they quickly put in a large number of troops unlike before. Have done
“—!
It was the same with Serenian, who always fought in the forefront.
Fighting with cutter-blade greatswords and chim-pin spears, she draws a bow with other archers right behind the warriors who guard her front. Oh continued to shoot at these large monsters.
‘I will win…!’
The elves’ attacks pierce the enemy’s defenses and strike, but the enemy’s attacks are not very effective against the elves with armor.
I opened my eyes wide as I watched the elves advance slowly, trampling on the corpses of the enemies they had slain and cut down.
As if a power struggle that seemed to be equal to a head-on collision was just a momentary illusion, the elves were steadily gaining experience and using the items I gave them, they were reaping the fruits of their preparations.
Based on the command of an experienced and seasoned warrior in the role of commander, who also gave instructions to Serenian, the elves kept their formation without any gaps, moving the wounded right behind them and replacing them with new ones, and continued to move forward. Do.
On the other hand, the witch beast daughter-in-law continued to be pushed back.
It’s the same with hunters and the mana elves deal with. It is common knowledge that hard metal can withstand stronger force than a tree branch.
It’s because the hard carapace they were proud of started to be destroyed by the armament of the elves, who had been grinding and polishing the hard and sharp metal.
[Demonic Beast Paw-Paw Hook]
Finally, the elves reached here with almost no damage.
The place where the mutant monster that chased Serenian who came to search after making a contract with the lightning spirit is located.
The daughter-in-law with sharp hooked feet on her back flapped her hooked feet like a roar, then started charging towards the elves along with the other beasts under her command.
“Am I going to become a mid-boss?”
Slightly larger than the other pill bugs, and apparently thicker in its carapace, a frightened elf warrior’s shield split in half as he swung a hooked foot protruding from his carapace.
Even though it’s a shield clad in steel plates. In my gloomy eyes, I could see the dark purple power that was blurred in its sharp hooked feet. It’s a completely different kind of strength from the other guys, who’s only attack was knocking down elves and biting them with their jaws.
Just like the mana elves use.
“–!”
And it was Serenian who hurriedly stepped forward, pushing back his fellow countrymen who were taken aback by his mighty fighting power.
She blocked the one who was about to bite a fallen warrior, and summoned a lightning spirit with a sparkling body to shoot a powerful thunderbolt.

“Chief!”
“Everyone, keep your seats! I’d rather leave that terrible monster to the chieftain!”
The elves panicked, but the elven warrior Garmin, who was in charge of their command, believed in Serenian, who started fighting the enemy boss, and made them stand.
The damage increases if you inadvertently intervene. Their primary goal is to minimize damage in every battle.
Only then could I go to the end of this dungeon that I still don’t know the end of.
‘I don’t know if the fight against the monsters in the Pandemonium was like this.’
I’m an old warrior, but I’ve never actually experienced a proper war. All I had heard was rumors of how devastating and terrible the war with the demons outside the Great Forest was.
Nevertheless, the war against the disgusting and powerful variant monsters, who harbored only hatred and hostility, was so desperate and difficult that I dared to predict that it would rival that great war.
‘I can overcome it. I have to win.’
However, those who left the Great Forest had no choice. Because this new world they decided to emigrate to was a different place from the Great Forest, where they were able to avoid the storms of a great war. If you run away, if you lose, you die.
He glanced at the pin spear he was holding in his hand. This sharp, pointy spear made of solid metal that has been broken and is covered in the enemy’s bodily fluids.
Then, he looked at Serenian, who blocked the hooked foot attack of the deviant beast he was wielding with the power of the spirit, stepped on his face, and shot an arrow with a bow aimed at his nose, penetrating the cervical vertebrae exposed in the gap in the carapace.
They were the things that gave hope to those who were struggling through the things they had never experienced before on this terrible battlefield.
“Check everything. This labyrinth is not over. Now, no one knows what lies ahead.”
Soon all the enemies became corpses and rolled on the floor. However, even this victory was only a part of the process when it came to clearing the dungeon.
He ordered the other elves to take care of the wounded and gather equipment while watching Serenian gasping for breath on top of the drooping demon beast’s daughter-in-law after being pierced by an arrow.
