Episode 85: Showdown, Super King Metal Hitoden
Super King Metal Hitoden.
A rare monster with iron skin that gives extreme experience points.
Status is like,
“Level 10,000.”
It’s quite high for a spawning monster like Waitedale.
In addition, high defense.
Complete magic resistance.
Half damage from strikes.
Automatic health regeneration.
Resistance to all elemental attacks.
Nullification of special abnormal effects.
Super speed.
He’s the strongest in this cave.
His health is low but automatic health regeneration is troublesome.
As a monster, he’s excellent.
I’d like him as a subordinate, but Waitedale, the spawning monster, is protected by the Demon King, so it can’t be made into a subordinate since it has no ego.
“Hoooh!!”
Well, well.
He attacks us as soon as he sees us.
Indeed, Waitedale, the spawning monster, has no will.
All enemies of the Demon King are enemies. Enemies are forcibly eliminated upon sight.
Super King Metal Hitoden breathed ice.
“He’s fast! Lord Zaus! With Blizzard Breath!!”
“Magic Magic Defense”
“Oh! Fast!! Completely blocked with a magic barrier.”
Well, I don’t need to defend myself.
If I don’t block the attacks, it will damage Saizou.
“Is this guy going to drop the Metal Pineapple?”
“That’s right! However, he’s the strongest enemy in this place! He has resistance to any attack, magic attacks are ineffective! Blunt damage is all halved!!”
“That’s right.”
He’s a tough enemy when your level is low.
Especially since Saizou’s base level is 4,000.
Defeating him will also be a life-or-death struggle.
“Orya”
Zushaaaaaah!!
Alright.
Defeated.
“A single strike!? You defeated him with just one hit!?”
Hmmm.
I guess I gained about 10 levels just by defeating this one.
That’s quite a bit of experience points.
“Huh? He disappeared? The Metal Pineapple?”
“The drop rate is low.”
Ah, that’s right.
It’s not easy to get it.
I wonder how low the drop rate is?
In the game, for rare items, it was set to less than 1%.
If that’s the case, I might not get it even if I hunt a hundred of them.
Originally, the drop items for Super King Metal Hitoden were “Super King Metal Hitoden’s Shield” and “Shoes Too Angelic.” The shield is an item with high defense, and the shoes are equipment that gives experience points just by wearing them. I don’t know what effect the Metal Pineapple has, but it’s probably a hard-to-get item, considering it’s labeled as super rare.
“Look, it seems to be spawning from over there.”
“Oh, it’s a space-time hole.”
It was a hole swirling with black vortexes, like a black hole.
Monsters spawn from this hole. Well, it’s a kind of leveling point.
After waiting for a while, monsters appeared from the hole.
“Well, well. A Metal Chameleon?”
It’s not you.
Crush with one blow.
Bishaaaaah!
Well, well.
It’s good that they spawn, but it takes a little time.
I took out a flute from the subspace storage box item box.
“Shall we use this?”
“What is that?”
“It’s a summoning flute. It makes monsters come to you with just one blow. It’s a rare item that subordinate monsters acquired in the infinite dungeon before. Let’s give it a try. Pew!!”
Then, monsters appeared from the space-time hole.
“Oh! It’s a Metal Mantis!”
Well, well.
Dobaaaaah!!
“It’s troublesome when different monsters come out.”
However, I want the Metal Pineapple.
I kept blowing the flute.
About an hour passed.
Once again, Super King Metal Hitoden appeared.
“Hoooo!”
There we go.
Down it goes.
Gushaaaaah!
And it disappeared again.
All I gained was experience points.
It’s not dropping so easily, huh.
“Well, well. It’s good for earning experience points, but it’s not dropping the crucial item.”
“It’s because of the low probability.”
Hmm.
Defeating it isn’t a problem, but the spawn rate is too low.
I wonder how many days it would take to hunt a hundred of these.
“All right. Let’s return to the Demon Duke’s Castle for now.”
She’s a great sage in times of trouble.
We returned to the castle.
“What!? You want to defeat Super King Metal Hitoden in large numbers!?”
The great sage Caphrodyte widened her lovely eyes.
She may look like she’s 11, but she’s actually a 1,100-year-old girl who doesn’t age thanks to the secret art of eternal youth.
If anyone could solve this problem, it would be her, as she’s well-versed in magic research.
“So, you mean finding a way to spawn Waitedale monsters in large numbers?”
“No. With the summoning flute, monsters will come out. The problem is specifying the species. Can you do it?”
“Hmm. That’s difficult.”
It probably is.
I’ve never heard of a method to intentionally specify which enemies spawn.
But you know,
“The tone of this summoning flute, is it like a frequency that resonates with monsters? Maybe it’s that kind of sound? Like, if that sound only reacts to Super King Metal Hitoden, could it be done?”
“Ohhh! I hadn’t thought of that!! Truly, you are the master of the future!!”
“Haha…”
Well, it’s just an amateur idea.
“Zaus proposes, and I materialize it. Isn’t that what makes a good couple? Don’t you think so?”
Ah, it’s more like social etiquette or an adult joke.
She’s 1,100 years old, after all. I’m just a kid to her. Well, let’s just go along with it.
“…Maybe.”
“Hehehe. You’re blushing. You should be more honest.”
“Can it be done?”
“It’s a good proposal from Zaus, so it must be realized. If I don’t do it, who will? Hehehe. Who else but me?”
Hmm. Caphrodyte is reliable.
It’s probably because of the research funds we’ve been providing each month. It’s a mutual benefit. If there are benefits to both sides, the relationship will be good. Friendship is just a sham. It’s just part of social etiquette. It’s all about the benefits in the end. Money talks.
“However, in that case, we’ll need Super King Metal Hitoden for the experiment.”
“Hmm.”
Indeed.
Experimenting to see which tone they react to is essential. All right,
“Then, I’ll go back to the Katay Mine once more.”
This time, it’s for capture.
