Chapter 15 - Short-Term Contract Worker(7)
As Arzen charged straight from the southwestern section to the central section, he noticed various strengths and weaknesses among the different entities.
“First, the hornet.”
The hornet was indeed powerful.
Typically, Void Bugs had to delve into the core of a sli to destroy it. But this one could tear it apart with its jaw and extract the core.
“But it’s slow!”
Its size was already larger than the hornets. Being a fusion of three entities contributed to that.
With its massive jaw, it was bound to move sluggishly due to the weight.
“And it tires quickly!”
The hornet exhausted its energy and vanished several tis faster than ordinary Void Bugs.
That was the biggest issue.
“It might be a bit challenging to form a squad with just the hornets…”
In contrast, ordinary Void Bugs weren’t as strong as the hornets but could move quickly and execute more precise flights.
If the two types ford a complentary relationship, they could beco even more destructive.
To create a powerful squad, ordinary Void Bugs were indispensable, much like infantry in an army.
“Most importantly, the hornets!”
Worried about the hornets, Arzen assigned them the task of intercepting the slis on the ceiling.
Each hornet could fire three shots before exhausting their venom. However, if given ti to recharge, they could shoot up to four tis.
“They definitely have the advantage of range, but I wish the firing rate was just a bit better. It must be sowhere in the scriptures… I’ll have to look for it later.”
While slaughtering the slis and advancing, sothing thick and large moved slowly in the distance.
“This is the central section! As we get closer to the bustling city center, the sewers are at their largest!”
That kind of presence could not possibly co from slis.
“Which audacious bastard dares to step into my hunting ground?”
Could it be that archer? No, he just placed the request!
“I won’t forgive the holess! Get a job and live properly, you bastard!”
Peeking around the corner to confirm the source of the presence, Arzen froze for a mont.
“What the hell… is that?”
A colossal sli filled the vast passage of the sewer!
“Big sli? No, it’s definitely a giant!”
In the adventurer’s guild, they used simple prefixes for mutant monsters to accommodate the 99% of adventurers who were dimwitted.
“Big” was for slightly larger than normal creatures, while “giant” was for those significantly bigger.
Monsters often operated under primitive strength hierarchies, so if it was a giant, it was bound to be very strong.
“There’s sothing peculiar about it. That thing is growing bigger by absorbing waste!”
The creature was wriggling as it approached Arzen.
It must have caught the scent of life.
Monsters have an inherent nature to seek life.
“What’s this? Are you challenging ? Hmph, haha!”
To , the Void Tyrant who can control twelve Void Bugs?
“You’re just a worthless sli that doesn’t know its place! Hornet, I’ll make the screams of that sli a fanfare to celebrate this joyous day! Go!”
Buuuuuung...!
The hornet fiercely charged the giant sli with the squad of Void Bugs.
“Feel the bitter difference! How dare you, a re sli, challenge ?”
Arzen, with his arms crossed, was confidently anticipating victory.
But in the next mont!
His pupils shook at the unexpected turn of events before him.
“Difference…?”
Buuuu… burrrr… gurgle…
“The difference is…???”
As the Void Bugs penetrated the surface and entered its body…
They couldn’t withstand the acidity and toxicity of the vomit-like substance, being digested instantly.
Arzen scread.
“Run away! Co back, hornet! You can’t get eaten too!”
