I had hoped that I’d be able to quickly run into Carmine and rescue her from the battle, but an hour had passed since I had reached the island and I was still walking through the misty soup. I had encountered various enemies, but they were rely S-class monsters that decided a single person was worth chomping down. I eventually started using sneak, but that still ant I stumbled upon several enemies since I couldn’t see them until I was nearly on top of them.
I had finished the outer two rings of the western side and started to move to the third ring. That was when I started hearing sothing big moving through the forest. The soup also seed to reduce noise as well, but the sound I was hearing was the noise of trees crashing down. I started moving toward the noise, hoping it was indicative of the battle I was searching for. However, that’s when I ca into a clearing, and a massive red dot appeared on my map.
Being large didn’t necessarily an it was a big creature. Sense life did as the na suggested, so the things that appeared the largest and brightest were the things that contained the most life. That ant that this thing was assured a powerful creature, and it was hostile.
“Crap!” I tried to back away, especially since I saw no indication that this would lead to the fight with Carmine.
While chasing the noises, I had inadvertently passed out of the 3rd ring, and I supposed I was close enough to the 5th ring that I’d encounter the miniboss. Where was my luck? It was completely absent because a mont later a beast ca charging at full tilt. It was about 8 feet tall and covered in hair.
“Rampaging Sasquatch.” I used Monster Identify to quickly figure out what I was dealing with.
I realized as soon as I saw it that this was going to be a troubleso fight. Besides having a ton of vitality, it was also an intelligent creature. It had picked up a stone and thrown it at . As I dodged to get out of the way, a second stone I hadn’t even seen slamd in the back, knocking down and forcing to roll back to my feet. It reached down and picked up a massive stick holding it like a bat as it closed the distance.
If I was dealing with a dumb enemy, I could take it out with Monster Tar. If it was a ghost, I could handle it with White Mage. I had a variety of tricks to deal with monsters, but if there was any type I was weakest against, it was a pure battle type. They were strong, fast, and didn’t leave ti to work out a strategy. It had only been seconds since the battle began, and he had already reached and was swinging the stick which, I now realized was the trunk to a smaller tree.
I just wanted to find Carmine! Why could this stuff never be easy?
