All Stat Slayer

Chapter 29: (2): Season 1 – Preparation

Sung-hyung spoke.

I apologize for the interruption, but if anyone has a defense power of 3,000 or higher, please step forward. We would appreciate it.

Several people raised their hands. Hyun-seok hesitated about raising his hand. In reality, the vanguard was currently very dangerous. The shock value couldnt be properly known, and the monsters damage hadnt been quantified. It meant that he could die if he took a wrong hit.

Should I attack from the rear instead?

Hyun-seok steeled his heart and raised his hand.

For now, blocking is the priority.

As long as you can defend against the attacks, you can somehow continue the battle. If your attack power is ridiculously weak, you can still join the offensive after blocking the attacks.

Hyun-seoks heart began to thump. A hint of fear, a touch of tension, and mostly a concern for Min-seo.

He said its taking a nap, so we should be safe for now.

The fortunate thing was that the school building hadnt been destroyed. The fact that the military forces couldnt attack the thing currently napping on the playground was because there was a possibility that an enraged monster could collapse the school building. It was a situation where the students sheltering underground could be crushed.

That thing shouldnt deviate too far from the standards of normal mode.

Hyun-seok closed his eyes for a moment.

This time, my role is a vanguard. It would be great to have suitable items for that.

He activated the items window.

The helicopter arrived in Wonju. The worlds attention was focused on it. An organized unit of 80 soldiers from the Korean Union had mobilized to slay Cyclops. They were the top elites of Korea, boasting their prowess.

Sung-hyung called Hyun-seok separately.

Are you taking the vanguard?

Yes. It seems like the better option.

Even if its you, it can still be dangerous.

Hyun-seok was well aware of that. Thats why he had spent 300,000 achievement points and 30 stats to purchase an item. It wasnt something sold in regular shops but an item bought from the Top-tier Slayer Shop. While 30 stats were a significant sacrifice for others, for Hyun-seok, it was a manageable amount. This time, he deducted them from intelligence stats.

Thanks to that, his intelligence stat was currently at a meager value of 206 compared to other stats.

I hope its not something that surpasses the standards of Normal mode.

He intended to fight with all his might. Hyun-seok took out the item he had purchased from the items shop. It was a shield he had bought by spending Impossible Achievement Points and 30 stats. Sung-hyung had never seen Hyun-seok take out an item before, but he didnt bother mentioning it.

Hyun-seok checked the item once again.

A shield was worn by the giant king Herantolthos, who rebelled against the gods and withstood the wrathful tidal wave. According to legends, Herantolthos supported the seas and stopped the tidal wave.

Grade: Normal (Current)

Defense: 7000

Durability: ?

Required Strength: 199

Required Stamina: 199

Special Ability: Once while wearing the item, it blocks any physical attack that would reduce the wearers H/P to zero. However, it cannot defend against physical attacks that exceed the items grade.

The description of the item was not elaborate, but its grade was normal. However, Hyun-seok wasnt disappointed. Perhaps the fact that it was classified as normal gave him the assurance that it could change according to the mode or the current ability. It could be applied as normal mode because it was currently in normal mode, or maybe Hyun-seoks stats were at that level, so it was applied as normal.

But one thing was certain. Despite being labeled as normal, its defense was undoubtedly the best among all existing armor at least among those known in the world. Considering that the defense of top-tier slayers was around 3,000 to 4,000, a defense of 7,000 was an extraordinary figure. It might not seem like a high value to Hyun-seoks eyes because it was such a small number.

However, It is not certain if this item is worth consuming achievements and bonus stats for. For ordinary slayers, 30 stats are truly remarkable. If we consider the fact that Jong-won, with a strength stat of 82, is ranked first in the official rankings worldwide, we can easily imagine how significant 30 stats are.

Well, its certainly better than nothing.

Nevertheless, when facing an unknown opponent, it was definitely better to have something rather than nothing at all. Moreover, the item was quite bulky, so if utilized properly, it could cover the entire frontal area. It would certainly be able to block attacks from large monsters like Cyclops.

All preparations were complete.

Hyun-seok possessed stats beyond the normal mode specifications. Clearly, he was powerful. However, it could be surmised that Cyclops had also exceeded the normal mode specifications. Just by looking at its destructive power and movements, one could sense it.

Countless reporters risked their lives to broadcast this situation. Languages from all over the world poured out as if ready to burst.

Over 80 Slayers, who claim to be the best in Korea, have formed a combat unit.

How magnificent is this sight! This is not a game. It is a real situation. Over 80 Slayers are advancing toward Cyclops, disregarding their own lives.

Citizens, please pray for the safe hunting of Cyclops by these 80 individuals! The 80 hopes of Korea take firm steps forward!

Not only Koreans but people from all around the world began to pay attention to the movements of the newly appeared monster, Cyclops, and the 80-member combat unit.
