I Am The Sorcerer King chapter 8

Chapter 8

In fact, due to his experience in this life and knowledge with abilities derived from memories of a past life, he does not need a team. With monsters of the lowest level, he could even hunt alone.

However, there was nothing special about this decision to work in a team. This was done to make it safer to make money. You never know what will happen on the battlefield.

Their enemy is a monster, but the same awakened one can stick a knife in the back to take away your valuables. In fact, he went through this a few times when he was bait. This is literally lawlessness. That’s why he joined the team.

“Well, let’s start slowly,” he thought.

The guy raised his left hand and caught the chain wrapped around his wrist. There was a mana cube at the end of the chain, and he took it in his hand.

“It would be better to make it in the form of a wand, but now nothing can be done,” he said.

Holding the Mana Cube in his hand, he quietly muttered his magic spell:

– As the lord of mana, I command! Increase your strength! Physical strength.

A dim light spread over his body. The duration of the effect is 1 hour. Muscle strength has become approximately twice as high. With such successes, he himself could go into close combat.

– As the lord of mana I command! Increase your agility! Agility.

– As the lord of mana I command! Increase your stamina! Endurance.

– As the lord of mana I command! Increase your magic power! Magic power.

[Increased the level of four abilities.]

Agility, Stamina, Physical Strength and Magic Power – this was the first time he used this. Therefore, skill acquisition alerts surfaced.

“You said you were Song Hoon, right? Have you used support skills? – Lee Chul Seung asked this just out of interest.

– We are in the hunting zone, so I applied them in advance. I have buffed Agility, Stamina, Physical Strength and Mana, “the guy replied.

– For all 4? Are you really Level 1? – Kim Han Goo was surprised to hear this.

Perhaps the healer girl also heard these words, because she turned her head slightly.

– I envy. With such skills, wherever you go, you will be welcome, “said Lee Chol Seung.

– Kh-h. Exactly. I also want support skills. Although no …. Better a healer, – Kim Han Goo blurted out in a simple way.

There was no doubt that their words were sincere. We were ranked, but that was obvious. It is better to be a support than a damage dealer. It may be worse than being a healer, but if the team has a capable support, hunting will become much easier.

– And now I’m buffing you guys.

Song Hoon buffed them one by one. Even the healer looked a little surprised. Sung Hoon smiled upon seeing this. This was obvious since 4 stats were improved. He was confident that they had increased by at least 20%.

If he used more mana, his abilities would increase even more. But so far the magic was not enough. And while the guy was casting spells, the truck drove down the road. Finally he reached the hunting ground.

Bukh. Bukh. Boo!

They have already crossed the last line of defense, and there are almost no normal roads left. Finally, after driving on a broken dirt road, the truck arrived where monsters often appeared.

Bright flashes were visible in the distance. Either lightning, or flame. Perhaps in that place they fought with a monster.

– So. Here we go out, – the commander said in a loud voice.

He opened the truck door and got out. Hearing his command, Song Hoon climbed down from his seat in the back of the truck.

– So. We will act according to the briefing. We lure the monster with a smell, the healer and the support are waiting in the truck. When the monster approaches, I’ll divert his attention to myself. Immediately after that – attack, – the commander, who was a tank, informed the plan of action.

– Yes, no problem.

– Received.

– Then let’s start, – the commander finished speaking and moved forward.

He apparently had to have pheromones that attract monsters. But no one really knew what it was.

Song Hoon, while thinking that he should study this later, buffed Commander Park In Soo. He increased his four skills: agility, physical strength, stamina and magic. And also a buff buff.

Gain is a buff that literally enhances all abilities. But this is nothing compared to magic.

But he couldn’t do anything about it.

However, the combination of other magical techniques made him very attractive in the eyes of his comrades.

– Wow … This is amazing. Song Hoon, are you sure level one? It’s really…

“I did a lot of work for this,” said Song Hoon.

– Wow. Congratulations. It’s good. You said you can debuff too, right?

– Yes.

But in reality, Song Hoon was able to do more than just apply a debuff. Reconnaissance, attack, teleportation. He knew all this. Because he is a magician. But he didn’t say it. And there was no need for that either.

Meanwhile, Commander Park In Soo turned his head and stared in one direction.

– It’s coming. All get ready for battle.

Heeler climbed back into the back. Song Hoon also followed her. Park In Soo and two damage dealers stepped forward of the truck.

And then a huge lizard appeared in the distance. It was larger than a tiger in size. She looked like an iguana, but her front legs were very long. Therefore, she moved like a horse.

“Salamander,” Son Hoon said.

He had seen such monsters before. The nickname is salamander. It is larger than the Amur tiger, which is considered the largest tiger in the world.

If the Amur tiger is a large carnivore measuring three meters, then this monster from head to tail reached four meters.

From head to toe about two meters. Much more human. Naturally, its weight was enormous, usually exceeding half a ton.

To call such a cruel monster a salamander could only be out of your mind.

Thinking about this, Song Hoon hesitated whether to use the debuff?

There are many different spells such as paralysis, fainting, illusion, interception, and others.

“No, I’ll probably take a look from the outside,” he decided.

Better to stay on the sidelines now. A wave of mana rose from the front of the salamander.

A black and red ring appeared on Park In Soo’s head and it shone.

“Aggro-increasing skill,” Song Hoon has seen this skill many times before.

Aggro skill The official name in Korea is the skill of interfering with the mind through concentration. By directly interfering with the mind of the monster, this skill forced him to focus only on the tank.

And, in fact, the salamander’s red eyes flashed viciously and she rushed like a madman towards Park In Soo.

– Kwan! Kwan! She shouted.

As soon as she ran closer, her front paw twisted. Park In Soo held back this attack. Shield in hand, he looked familiar. Sung Hoon had seen similar things many times while working as a decoy. The shield lit up as it struck the salamander’s front leg. This meant that mana was only used up at the moment of defense.

“His abilities are not bad. He’s not just a dumbass who only uses skills, “Sung Hoon commented after watching Park In Soo’s actions.

At that time.

Lee Chul Seung and Kim Han Goo, on either side of the monster, pulled out their weapons.

A black light emanated from their weapons and they fired flashing bullets.

– Aim at the feet! At your feet! It will be faster that way, ” Park In Soo shouted.

“Hmm … Very good. You don’t even need a healer here, right? No. Just in case. A healer’s help may be needed, “Sung Hoon analyzed as he watched the fight.

He remembered an idea that had occurred to him even before coming here. One way or another, he is a magician. And at the same time has the skills of healing. Therefore, he could take the role of both healer and support. Or hunt alone.

“First of all, you need to provide treatment for mom … Maybe try to hunt alone? How does it usually work? To catch a monster requires the coordinated work of several awakened ones. I need to find a way to compare with the whole commando. With tier 3 magic, I can create a golem. But I don’t have enough mana yet, so… “- thoughts rushed randomly in his head.

While he pondered, the battle continued. Bullets only scratched the skin of the monster, without causing severe damage.

Despite the monster’s four legs being covered in blood due to the tank’s aggro skill, the salamander continued to attack Park In Soo like mad.

“Mental skills are quite useful,” Sung Hoon remarked to himself.

With wounds on its body, the exhausted monster under psychological control only followed Park Min Soo. This is the effect of the tank skill.

If this skill is not present, then you cannot be a tank. If you cannot argue a monster, then the team members will not be able to destroy it.

“Hmm. Okay, I looked at their abilities … now it would be nice to increase the hunting speed, “the guy thought.

Standing on the roof of the truck, Sung Hoon shook the mana cube and took it in his hand.

– As the lord of mana, I command! Loosen it up! Weakening.

[The skill “Weakening” was acquired.]

– As the lord of mana, I command! Blocking the field of view! Illusion.

[The skill “Illusion” was acquired.]

– As the lord of mana, I command! Limit his actions! Paralysis.

[The skill “Paralysis” was acquired.]

He used three types of skills. The flow of mana redistributed, magic flashed and hit the salamander. Debuff effect, which has the opposite effect of Buff. The skill that makes you go blind is Illusion. Paralysis that immobilizes the muscles of the body and immobilizes the monster.

Of the three spells, not a single one failed, so they all ended in success.

***

– What?

Suddenly Park In Soo stared at the immobilized salamander. He blocked his front legs with a shield, and sometimes struck with a hammer. This was his fighting style.

The reason this was possible was not only due to his own abilities. He did this through a skill called Shield Mastery. This skill allowed him to naturally handle the shield.

In other words, he handled the shield automatically.

Due to his profession “Shield Knight”, he also had the opportunity to receive special bonuses for using the shield.

Unlike Shield Mastery, his hammer skill was not a passive skill. Park In Soo had an active skill “Strong Strike”, but it only allowed him to deal additional damage. I own a hammer, he had to learn himself, through long and exhausting training.

But.

Now his skills have lost their relevance. After all, the salamander did not move.

– Commander, what is this?

– A? Why isn’t she moving? It seems like she’s alive, I can see how she trembles?

The salamander flopped to the ground and shivered. Even if you attack her now, she will not move.

At that moment.

There was a loud cry from behind:

– Now you can attack! It won’t budge within five minutes!

All three of them turned towards the truck, from which a voice came. They saw a surprised healer and a screaming support.

– Oh. What. Support. O0o … Song Hoon! Did you do that ?! – everyone was surprised.

– Yes! This is one of my debuffs! – confirmed the guy.

– This is not a debuff, but a control *.

( Pp: or KK (from the English “crowd control”, crowd: group, crowd) – skills that allow you to stop, slow down, lull, freeze, turn into a tree enemy, one or more, for a while.)

– No. This is not the point. We only have five minutes!

– Five minutes!

Park In Soo turned around after hearing Song Hoon’s reply. Then he began channeling his mana into the hammer.

– First you need to finish off this monster, and then we’ll talk!

He then took the hammer and struck the salamander’s head with all his might.

– Quaduk!

The salamander’s skull was shattered, her body shook, and she died with her tongue sticking out.
