This means that if the demons attack him or his teammates, he will not only be unable to withstand the enemy's attack, but he will also become a punching bag.
Strong, even if you miss, it's useless.
At most, they just have more stamina, which can help the team buy more time.
Lycorina received no answer from Anyi and was filled with doubt: "Anyi, am I right? Am I right? Am I right?"
"I don't know either," Annie replied casually. "Anyway, it's better to be cautious."
"Uh... okay." Lycorina could only nod.
……
Deep within the forest, far beyond their reach, evil branches are stretching out, searching.
The intruder had already discovered the presence of the invaders and that they were cleaning up their own clones, indicating a desire to venture deeper into the forest.
It smelled the scent of humans and became excited; it hadn't tasted human flavors in a long time.
Its intelligence is not high, perhaps only equal to or weaker than that of an ordinary goblin, but it understands that its mission is to devour all humans who venture deep into the forest.
It is ready.
No, it's more accurate to say we're always preparing.
They prepare a huge trap, waiting for foolish prey to step into it, and finally ensnare it in their net as it desperately flees.
……
The journey lasted all day, and by nightfall, the forest was completely dark.
The four heroes had no intention of stopping, because if they didn't move forward and stayed in place, more slimes would gather around them.
At that time, let alone setting up camp and resting, just standing in the camp will turn it into a tower defense game.
I still have to play tower defense games all night long.
After killing slimes for a day, the four of them leveled up.
You need to kill 7500 slimes to go from level 1 to level 5.
Even if each person kills 10 per minute, they can kill 600 per hour.
Moreover, the actual number is not that high; more than 10 slimes can be encountered every minute.
After Layton and Miluko were almost exhausted, Annie and Lycorina took over to lead the way.
After the four of them took turns grinding, each of them reached level 5.
It takes 5000 experience points to go from level 5 to level 6, but you only get 0.1 experience points for killing a slime.
To continue upgrading, you must kill 5 slimes.
This is not a number that can be achieved in a single day, so it will be quite difficult to break through to level 6 tonight.
Even that giant slime aggregate only had 1+ slimes.
This is why you can't farm slimes to level up.
Of course, if you could grind for three hundred years, maybe you could really reach the maximum level?
The path leading deeper into the forest had disappeared, and the four continued their journey through the woods.
Now it's Layton and Milco's turn to clear the way for the slimes, while Annie and Lycorina take a break.
Lycorina was asleep, being carried on An's back.
Tonight, she didn't sleep in An Yi's bed.
He just slept on her body...
Chapter 38 Preparations for the Boss Raid
It was already past midnight, and the four heroes had entered the trap set by the enemy.
However, King Slime did not choose to take action at this time, but instead kept monitoring the opponent's movements.
There are two situations in which it will launch an attack: one is when the player finds the location of its main body, and the other is when the player stays within its attack range to recover stamina.
In the game, it plays the role of a sneaky boss who ambushes new players when they are surrounded by slimes and stop to heal.
At this point, there is only one reason why it has not attacked...
Take a break! Why don't these humans stop and rest?!
Following its usual attack pattern, humans will probably try to find a quiet place to set up camp, clear out the surrounding slimes, and then stop to rest.
The surrounding slimes cannot actually be completely eliminated; rather, it deliberately controls the slimes to stop attacking, so that humans will lower their guard.
But... these people just won't stop!
The Slime King, whose mind was programmed with a simple attack sequence, was completely unable to comprehend the other party's actions.
It's incomprehensible why they're not playing by the rules; we can only continue to wait.
However, at that moment, it suddenly sensed that those humans seemed to have stopped!
……
"Is it about time to change shifts?" Lycorina woke up, feeling that she had recovered almost completely.
"It's okay! I can still play for a while!" Layton waved his hand.
Milu didn't say anything, but she kept cleaning up the slimes around her.
"I've already had a good sleep, you should all get some rest too," Lycorina said with a smile.
"It's alright, it's alright! I'm a man with 4 points of stamina! It doesn't matter if I fight a little longer!" Layton casually slapped the slime to death.
After a day of fierce fighting, Layton allocated the 4 attribute points he gained today to Agility and 6 to Stamina.
Currently, Agility is 3 points and Stamina is 4 points, while Lycorina only has 2 points, so she will get tired more easily.
Incidentally, following An Yi's advice, Milu put all 4 attribute points into stamina.
However, due to her faster movement speed, and the fact that her physical constitution was far inferior to Layton's, she was still a very fast mover.
Therefore, even with 5 points of stamina, the actual combat time will not exceed that of Layton with 4 points of stamina.
"Then... Milu, can you take a rest? Let me take over for you."
Seeing that Layton refused, Lycorina asked Miluco, who was running around nearby.
Milu stopped in her tracks, thought for a moment, and then shook her head: "I can still hold on a little longer."
“Okay.” Lycorina didn’t insist.
"So, can I get down now?" Annie asked, turning her head to Lycorina, who was still on her back.
After all this talk about changing shifts, why don't you come down now?
Lycorina stuck out her little tongue: "It was clearly An'i who wouldn't put me down."
"I left you there."
"Wait! I'll go down myself!"
Lycorina had no doubt that Anie would really throw her down!
Annie put Lycorina down and suddenly said, "We've walked for so long, why don't we just stop and rest for a bit?"
"Huh? Rest? But the slime will keep coming over?" Layton asked in surprise.
He wouldn't have thought much of it if the other two girls had suggested taking a break.
It was An Yi who suggested taking a break, which he didn't understand.
Because this is clearly not a very smart decision.
"Her Highness has recovered and can use magic to temporarily eliminate the surrounding slimes."
With her total magical power, giving you a break for several tens of minutes is no problem.
In addition, I've rested enough, so I can keep going for a long time.
"You recover faster when you stop moving, don't you?" Annie explained to Layton.
"That...that seems to make sense?" Layton scratched his head, feeling that what Annie said also made sense.
“Okay! The task of cleaning up the slimes will be left to Annie and me!” Lycorina said happily.
Moving around will deplete her stamina, but staying in one place to use magic will not!
The Holy Judgment requires very little magic power, and with 30 points of magic power, it deals considerable damage, capable of killing a whole group of slimes in one go.
In other words, she can clear out a large number of surrounding slimes while consuming very little magic power.
You can even accumulate a wave of monsters before using your skills without any pressure.
Soon, Annie cut down trees and moved them around with Layton to use as partitions, clearing out a space for isolation.
When I returned after completing my quarantine, I found Miluko already asleep on the grass.
Although she didn't say much all day and always seemed to be averse to trouble, she was never lazy when it came to doing things.
Layton used to work as a porter, so he was used to long hours of hard labor.
Komiru is a pampered young lady; no matter how hard she trains, she won't reach the level of physical labor required for a porter.
Her base stamina is only 1 point, even less than An's 2 points.
She was really tired after a long day.
"Whoosh-"
The golden cross-shaped arrow pierced through a group of gathered slimes, blasting them to pieces. Lycorina then began the cleanup of the slimes.
An Yi was responsible for providing support and eliminating any stragglers that got close to the four of them.
Leaning against his large backpack, Layton glanced around nervously every now and then.
As he expected, the number of slimes gathering began to increase.
But equally unexpectedly, Lycorina simply stood in the middle of the open space, and light arrows kept flying out of her staff, which was enough to clear out most of the slimes in one go.
With An Yi's assistance, the two resting in the open space were very safe.
And so, watching the golden light shimmer, Layton fell into a deep sleep.
