Hellmode ~A Hardcore Gamer Becomes Peerless in Another World with Retro Game Settings~-Chapter 694: Grand Battle against Soul Beast Nestirad (2)

If audio player doesn't work, press Reset or reload the page.

The force behind the fist of Nestirad was so impactful it nearly introduced cracks on an Orichalcum armor, and blew away Dogora to the formation of mid-guard, prompting Shea and Kurena to jump from left and right and take the vanguard.

"I will hold it!!"

Kurena shouted to her comrades, telling them she had it covered.

Her promptness had emerged after noticing Nestriad's posture leaning slightly forward. It was mere tilt, not even a step, but having weathered the trials of gods, all the party members knew better than to miss out on any chances of their opponent. That was especially true against a force like Nestriad.

————————————————————————————————————————

Merus had as much as 40,000 stats just in attack, not to count the oblivious number of buffs which enhanced each of his status with enhanced critical chance too, but they couldn't even put a scratch on Nestirad.

(Attack maybe wasn't the problem, but the endurance and resistance is the one most lacking for sure, even with buffs.)

Allen churned his thoughts as he re-summoned Lubank and affirmed Keel was already casting full recovery on Merus.

The glaring shortcoming was obviously the endurance. Merus was trivialised easily despite his strength and buff count. And further tracing the problem, it would be that the effect of increased endurance was severely limited among his comrades.

Just for Merus, he had 75000 upliftment in his stats with the growth of Angel B and Angel C. But once you exclude attack and agility, the status sheet would appear unimpressive.

(It's completely a deadlock huh. Well, Luke-san, It seems it's the time.)

"Aaarggh, shit!! Debuffs are barely affecting it!!"

A grunt escaped from Luke, the debuffer of the party, while Merus was blown away after the earlier attack. His patience was cut short seeing Nestirad was barely affected by his debuffs no matter how many he casted.

Nestirad's intelligence and debuff resistance had flipped the game for him. And the debuffs were the crucial cornerstone of their strategy.

"Haa!!"

"Hmm!!"

"Take thisss!!"

Meanwhile, Shea, Kurena, and Dogora resumed their offense on Nestirade. But it was a replay of an earlier scene, even the sacred artifacts only left sparks in their trial, not leaving even tiniest of scratch. It was obvious with how Nestirad was unfazed, and still ongoing with his attacks.

"Fine, we're stuck either way. Sophie! Coordinate with me. Alright?!"

"You don't have to say that, I will! Bring on!!"

Luke roughen his voice, and held the «Arc Jewel of Spirit King» in both his hands as he shouted.

"«Spirit Garb»!! Pray impart your benevolence, O' Great Jigen!"

Sophie promptly activated «Spirit Garb» for Luke.

«Very well! I shall deliver the providence!!»

*Clang*

The Great Spirit of Time «Jigen» overlapped the figure of Luke as he bolted in direction of Nestirad, and formed an armor that covered him.
