Breaking Through the Weak Point
A body constructed from the concept of disaster must be situated in Sea Storm.
The consciousness of the departed spirits, when gathered together, causes its thinking to become so chaotic that it can only continuously and indiscriminately radiate malice!
"..."
Linsey steadied himself underwater and continued to approach the enemy ahead.
After seeing the information in the Hunting Notes, I finally gained a more concrete understanding of Krullu, the nightmare of the ocean.
Linsey switched modules as he pleased.
[Decryption Game] Through the seawater, Krullu's approximate shape is imprinted in his pupils.
This is an irregularly shaped object about 40 meters long, resembling a flat-topped hill made of silt.
"Break through the core."
"But with such a massive size, forcibly creating a penetrating wound from above..."
As soon as Linsey had the idea, she shook her head to interrupt herself.
Assuming the core is located in the very center of the opponent's body, a body length of 40 meters folded in half would still be 20 meters thick.
20 meters!
Not to mention the physical body of such a maritime natural disaster.
Replacing it with any other material would create an impregnable fortress.
"That means prioritizing psychological stimulation."
Linsey confirmed the next operational strategy.
But just then, the turbulent undercurrent beneath the surface intensified once again.
Krullu does not have a clear mind.
But when faced with an enemy that is gradually approaching, it still instinctively launches obstruction and attacks, and the intensity of these attacks increases!
"Ah?"
[Decryption Game] Highlight this hidden current.
Linsey noticed the danger underwater and dodged it immediately.
Bang!--
In a split second, Linsey dodged the attack.
But the moment the water flow brushed past him, it exploded with a deafening roar, creating a swirling, knife-like vortex underwater.
"It can explode!?"
Linsey tilted her head and struggled with all her might to break free from the chaotic waters.
The result was nothing more than a breath or two.
His clothes, centered on his left shoulder, were torn into irregular shreds, exposing his skin directly to the seawater.
"..."
Linsey looked serious.
This result was not because he relied on his equipment and Constitution to withstand the damage from the turbulence.
It's not because of his newly activated [Datafication] skill.
When attacked in a true player state, his physical weaknesses become blurred into Datafication state, so they appear to be fine.
However, the health bar displayed on the Attribute Panel is different.
After being hit, its strength was reduced by a full 1/10!
Especially considering that Linsey dodged the attack and quickly escaped the turbulence!
Whoosh whoosh——
Beneath the dim water's surface, several more gusts of air launched their attacks.
This would normally be extremely difficult to observe, but Linsey was focused this time, and the effect of [Nautilus] compensated for his poor observation skills, which allowed him to dodge in advance and avoid having his health reduced as before.
"..."
"Seriously, I'm raiding alone, and the boss is throwing all its skills at me?"
Linsey cursed, forcing herself to calm down and continue her previous battle analysis.
"Mental stimulation..."
This is Krullu's fatal weakness.
From this perspective, the first thing Linsey thought of was the artist's performance.
The stirring melody should be able to stimulate this collective will of the dead.
Linsey looked at the sea behind her.
Unfortunately, Wala Wala is too young now, and Ala Song is a painter.
Neither of them seemed capable of providing this kind of assistance in combat.
Linsey frowned:
"Then we'll have to rely on ourselves. Skills, equipment..."
While dodging the currents underwater, Linsey checked her Attribute Panel.
A Potent Incendiary Bottle that can burn underwater.
The newly created high-level equipment, the [Lava Jet Stream Sword] and the [Indestructible Blade], are examples of advanced weaponry.
They even used a highly toxic substance called "Ice Erosion Toxin" on mutated plants.
His gaze swept over the items one by one.
These items should all be effective against Krullu. However, considering the opponent's massive size of tens of meters, the effectiveness will definitely be greatly reduced.
Should we treat [Red Horn Mistletoe] as a consumable item and project it out all at once?
"Um?"
Just then, Linsey paused.
Because a sparkling blue gem in his bag caught his attention.
[Jewelry/Material: Azure Sea Zircon]
[A rare and precious jewel. The Essence energy gathered from the ocean flows within the gem, shimmering with unparalleled brilliance; it can also be used as a material to craft other items.]
[Rare and Advanced Gem, extremely valuable!]
Two names are engraved inside the gemstone.
—Adores
—Lily Danny Dani
"..."
"Krullu's consciousness is composed of the thoughts of the sea dead."
"And the sea spirits of this world are all beings from stories!"
"One Advanced Gem in exchange for one more attempt?"
The possibility is right in front of us.
Linsey's answer to the challenges has remained unchanged.
He immediately began to mobilize the Essence.
[Decryption Game] → [Sports Racing]
[Hunting Simulation] → [FPS]
The core and foundational RPG module remains unchanged.
Linsey instantly switched to the other two modules.
He manipulated the Essence within his body, activating the explosive properties of the Life Source Material while also unceremoniously pouring it into the [Professional Sports] skill.
Swoosh—
Linsey's speed increased in an instant.
A fleeting white shadow streaked through the dark sea.
He was like an arrow flying through the sea, his speed even exceeding the surrounding rushing water, rushing towards the enemy like a sharp blade.
In Linsey's hands, the blue jewel shimmered with a dreamlike brilliance.
400 meters, 300 meters, 100 meters...
50 meters—that's enough!
In an instant, Linsey burst through the dark seawater, her body leaping high into the air.
He aimed at the target lock marker in the [FPS] mode and swung the [Azure Sea Zircon] with all his might.
This time, we can only succeed; failure is not an option!
Boom!...
Thunder rumbled across the dark sea, and the gloomy world instantly became bright.
Linsey's figure, as he threw the projectile, illuminated the air, creating a magnificent silhouette, like a warrior challenging a sea monster in a nautical tale.
"Hiss hiss hiss—"
On the pitch-black sea, in stark contrast to the bright sky.
Krullu, who has remained steadfast and in an unshakable position all along, now reveals his true form.
It was a huge object formed from dead white mist.
Noticing the [Azure Sea Zircon] hurtling towards it from mid-air, Krullu's mouthless body emitted a mournful roar that was neither male nor female.
"Adores—!"
"Lily Danny—!"
In that instant, Krullu's pale body began to blur.
Within the opponent's body, a pale form revealed a passage leading directly to its core, drawing the [Azure Sea Zircon] towards it.
At the same time, the core formed by the chaotic malice also emerged there.
"!"
Linsey took out the Indestructible Blade without hesitation.
The high-temperature lava of the [Lava Jet Stream Sword] adheres to its surface, forming a spiral-shaped crimson flame.
Linsey aimed at the attack trajectory predicted by the [FPS].
The power in his arm exploded, almost shattering the surrounding seawater, and a stream of crimson heat shot out.
"You're the one—get it!"
