It Is Legal for an NPC Who Is Being Oppressed To Run Away

chapter 21



21 – Raid NPC. (One)

[-Job: Mountain Keeper NPC- Level: 300 Name: Jack. Age: 16.]

[Strength: 50+?]

[Agility: 47+?]

[Intelligence: 3+?]

[Luck: -15+??]

[HP: 300,000+???]

[MP : 0+0]

[Skill: Mountain Manager]

[Mountain manager effect: All stats increase slightly in the mountains you manage.]

[Mountain under management: -Fonia- -Ottoman Empire- (How to register surrounding mountains: View details)]

[Title: View details.]

“…is it really big?”

“I see. Is that slime?”

[Acetic Acid Slime: Level 270]

[HP: 110,000]

The one located in the middle of the road was showing off its massive size by melting the surrounding land and forests into a mushy mess. Is it roughly larger than an ordinary two-story building?

I also added various accessories to raise my stats a little more, but my luck stat, which is negative, is still negative, and my agility has only increased slightly.

The good news is that my level is lower than the field bosses I know, but isn’t 270 a bit high?

“Hmm. The largest population of slimes I’ve ever seen, though. If you deal with them like you’ve dealt with so far, there’s no reason you can’t defeat them. So don’t be nervous.”

“yes.”

Maybe it’s because Ray and I already said that it’s our first [Acid Slime] raid, so a conductor came out and talked to Ray as if he was taking care of Ray’s mental state.

In the end, there was no party to take me, her, and Gor, and we were truly left out. Well, since I came here with the intention of taking the bus in the first place, let’s see if I can keep calm.

The number of people in the raid is 52 people + 1 dog, including 10 groups of 5 people per party, but the conductor said that this was enough, and we took on the role of porters in the first place.

exactly.

“You can watch from behind and continue to supply the party where the ignition stone falls. The blue one over there is here, and if you see someone who has touched that acid, you can bring them this cold stone.”

I was in charge of the supply line behind them.

There is a limit to the amount each person can bring and the amount they can carry during battle, so our role is to continue to bring it to the party behind them. It’s a crappy position.

To be honest, when I first heard about it, I thought I wanted to fight it myself, but after seeing the size and level of the enemy, I thought this was just right. Honestly, I don’t want to get hurt.

“Then, the raid begins!! Tankers apply acid defense liquid to their shields and move forward!!”

The battle began at the command of the commander.

*

“…well. It takes quite a while.”‘

“That’s right. I said it would take about an hour, but it’s already been a while, right?”

Ray and I really didn’t have much to do.

because.

“Ignitions…! Go, thank you!”

“Here!! Burned…!! Uh, thank you!!”

“I’m injured!! Here…! Huh?! They took me already?!!”

Even if Ray and I don’t move, Gor runs around like crazy alone and acts as a guardian angel on the battlefield.

That’s almost a nightingale, right?

Because I registered as a tamer in the first place.

Gor’s movements were accepted as if they were my own judgments and movements, and no one said anything even if I wasn’t moving.

Oh my gosh, it’s so sweet, isn’t it?

“Hmm, but it’s strange. You explode the slime’s outer shell with a kindling stone and attack its core. Didn’t you say that?”

“It did.”

“But has the outer skin come off now?”

“well.”

“…Hmm.”

As he said at first, no one died, but you can see people slowly getting tired. Most of them are level 50 to early 40 adventurers, and although some are level 60, they just look less tired than others, and their faces are full of fatigue.

“…A bow attack with that ignition stone attached to it, it doesn’t seem to work in my eyes.”

“That’s amazing, I see it that way too.”

[Super Acidic Slime: Level 270]

[HP : 100,494]

I woke up to 10,000 in 1 hour. Everyone is already exhausted, but there are 100,000 left. No matter how you think about it, the subjugation is a failure. Wasn’t slime at that level until now?

Its attack is to fire acidic liquid bombs or wield an acidic whip that extends like tentacles, just like in the game.

To be honest, it doesn’t seem that threatening. It’s not very fast, and it can’t pierce a shield sprayed with defense fluid.

but.

“Kwaaak!!”

“Cold stone!! Quickly, cold stone!!!”

-Pot!!

-Chii Iik!!

It is truly a fantasy to see the slime’s acid disappear and the burns heal as Gor rushes and presses the cold stone on the affected area before the skin of the people who come in contact with the acid completely melts.

However, 7 out of 10 people who took on the role of shield are already in that state.

It feels like there isn’t much left for the other three, but no matter how much I think about it, it takes 5,000 people, let alone 50 people, to clear it.

If things continue like this, it will definitely fail.

“…I still have a lot of Ignition Stones and Frost Stones left, but there doesn’t seem to be any point in continuing like this.”

“…What should we do? Shall we participate in the war too?”

“What are you doing? I can’t even use magic, so we can’t help. Get some popcorn.”

“Pah, what? What are you bringing?!”

hmm. Is there no popcorn in this world? It could have been an Easter egg, but I just stared blankly at the collapsing raid party while thinking the same thing.

Whew. This seems to be the correct answer. There will be more carriage costs, but there is no choice.

I have no intention of wrestling with a raid boss I can’t defeat.

Eventually, after a few more minutes, the raid party completely disintegrated, and the raid commanders began to defeat the parties before the dead came out.

okay. End with this…

“Huh?! Uhh!! He-he’s moving!!”

“W-what?! The slime is moving!! Evacuate!! Everyone evacuate!!”

“Ugh!! Sa, help me!!!”

“huh?”

Suddenly the field boss started moving. what? There was no action like that in the game either?

He was a boss who only threw eggs, whipped him, and shot acid bombs.

So, even for low-level users, it was a boss that wouldn’t die if they didn’t get close to it, and it was no different here. The commander had certainly explained it that way, but suddenly the guy started rolling around and firing whips and acid bombs.

Oh, it’s really spinning. I’m sure something happened because the world couldn’t force me.

“Holy sh*t?! Boo, take care of the wounded!! Evacuate quickly!! Get away from the front lines!! Don’t touch that damn acid!!”

“Ahhhhh!! I reached it!! The cold stone!! The cold stone!!”

-Chii Iik!!!

Gor, I, and even Ray move and run away together, treating the immobilized people around us, the injured people, and those who got burned by the acid bombs.

No, he didn’t have a tracking function like that? What happened?

If such behavior were possible, all you had to do was attract the aggro from the beginning and drag it somewhere else.

How many people were standing in the middle of the road and blocking the way? However, he suddenly started to move wildly and chase us.

why the hell

“Kuh!! What the hell?! I didn’t think it was normal super acid!! This is the first time I’ve ever done anything like this!! Everything!! Just think about surviving!!”

A shield-wielding conductor stands behind him, shouting while blocking whips and acid bombs, while the others run away. I will turn

“Go! Ignition stone and cold stone!”

[yes.]

Gorr, who had been forcibly carrying injured people around him to healthy people, immediately ran to my side carrying a bag full of ignition stones and cold stones at my command.

Let’s look back at the raid we did a while ago.

Wizards use something like magic to cut down the creature’s body, and then shoot a bow with a kindling stone tied on top of it to attack the core. If you do that, the damage is very small, but it is definitely done.

Most of the swordsmen defended themselves with shields, and it felt like they were using swords to block secondary damage caused by whipping. Although it is simple, it is a difficult action to do alone.

then.

“Ray. Take care of the people and evacuate together.”

“Huh?! What about Jack?!”

“If this goes on, everyone will die. Someone needs to get their attention. I don’t know how long even that shield guy can last. Is there anyone in good health who is faster than me?”

I have no intention of winning. Saying that you will defeat a guy who still has over 100,000 HP is arrogance and not courage.

But isn’t it strange that I, who I’ve only been looking at so far, is the first to run away?

I picked up a handful of kindling stones from Gorga’s pocket.

“I get his attention, take him to another place, and when the road opens, I take him with me and run away to the next village. It’s a very simple and easy story. Do you understand?”

“Now, wait a minute! Jack!! It’s too dangerous…!!”

“Let’s go, Gor.”

[yes.]

I ignored Ray’s voice shouting from behind and ran. Jump forward in an instant, hit the man holding the shield, and then throw an ignition stone at him.

-bang!!

“Oh, it blows up.”

I’ve seen it from afar, but it explodes like a firecracker. Of course, there is no change in HP, so it doesn’t matter since I don’t intend to defeat it.

“Hey, hey!! What are you doing right now?!”

“The conductor runs away too. Who needs to draw attention? I rested for over an hour and my stamina is full.”

“Now, wait!! Danger…!!”

The good conductor who told me it was dangerous once again blocked his acid bomb with a shield and backed away hesitantly.

That person is already quite limited.

Although he is an adventurer above level 60, his physical strength and HP are clearly lower than mine.

I just run forward and dodge its tentacle attacks. Doesn’t it feel strange to hear the sound of the ground melting in your ears?

“Even if my clothes melt, there’s no demand, that’s not what I do.”

Who on earth are you trying to melt my clothes to please?

[I miss you.]

“Are you crazy?”

Although it was slower than the troll’s attack, I quickly dodged its attack with a large area and threw ignition stones at it a few more times, and the creature that had been moving slowly finally turned its attention towards me.

Okay, that’s great. Now let’s run a marathon with me.

“Now, choose. Run. See over there?”

[yes.]

“When I looked at the map earlier, I saw that there was a cliff over there. It must be a spectacular view, right?”

[ah. Can you take it off there?]

I ran quickly into the forest, ignoring the status window that was spitting out crazy nonsense instead of the answer I was expecting.
