The Newbie Is Too Strong's
190. Demon vs System
“I thought where that disgusting energy came from. I didn't expect it at all. Apparently in a place like this, I would find a golden dragon. So who's the saint? Is that you? Or you?”
A disgusting figure suddenly came out of nowhere and then arrogantly pointed at me and Egi with a very demeaning look.
“Master, quickly return to the portal! This thing is dangerous! I will intercept him as long as possible as long as the Master and Master's comrades escape.”
Aura immediately knew that the figure that appeared before us was not a good figure. He immediately ran towards the disgusting figure. Aura immediately activated her shield for protection. But nevertheless, the,
“Craaaang.”
In just a single hand sweep of the loathsome creature, Aura's shield broke like a thin, fragile glass.
The disgusting creature also raised its claws to Aura. And in just one strike of his claw, Aura was instantly helpless and he was just like a game over from the arena.
Thank goodness Aura and I formed a pet contract and master. Otherwise, I would have lost the Aura of this world.
“Monster disgusting damn!” I who was angry at the disgusting monster's treatment of Aura instantly lost my rationality and also wanted to attack the extremely disgusting monster.
“Luca, relax! Look at the status of the monster! That was not the status of a normal monster. We're not gonna beat him. We better get out of this place soon about the log out button that does not work causing me to have a bad feeling.”
If not for Egi reminding me, I would have already acted rashly.
“Egi.”
“Good. You seem to have calmed down, Luca.”
However, that disgusting monster does not allow us any time off. He immediately stepped forward to finish us off.
However, Igun the young griffon blocked his steps.
“Traaaang.”
“Gun!”
“You also want to fight me, a vulture?!”
No, this can't be allowed. If Igun continued to face such a dangerous monster, he could be dying and could be.
And after Igun finally gained his freedom after a long time confined and tormented in a place like this, where maybe I let him die just like that without enjoying the so-called freedom.
However, as Egi said, the monster was no ordinary monster. This is the first time I've ever faced such a monster. The most feared race in Gardenia. As with dragons, the race should only be a legend. But miraculously, a race from such a vicious legend could appear before us.
\=\=\=
Name: Beryl (Lv 424)
Race: demon
Age: 400 years
\=\=\=
That's no longer the level we can handle. Although not as great as the 999-level plague dragon I once faced, still level 424 was still a level too high for me.
Moreover, based on the legends, the demon race has a dark-type overpower that is beyond our imagination. It was the right decision to run away from such an opponent.
“Ciaaaaaak!”
Igun suddenly made a sound as if giving us a signal to run immediately while he blocked the monster.
Where could I let it!
Unlike the Aura that formed a master-pet contract with me, Igun's existence was nothing but an NPC in this world. If he were to die in this world, then that would soon be the end of his life.
Nah! That can't happen! Why should such a suffering creature that had just obtained its freedom have to meet its end immediately at the hands of such a loathsome monster?! I'll never let that happen!”
“Noisy Birds. Get lost.”
‘No. If left like this continues, then Igun will be destroyed.’
“Luca!”
Without a second thought I ran towards Igun to dispel the jet-black laser beam directed towards him. After that, I no longer know what to do.
I also do not have a shield skill that can dispel enemy attacks. I only have this body. At least, I'm the one who game over replaced Igun. I am a player who if the game is over, then I will only lose my avatar body for a while.
Within 24 hours, the avatar's body would also immediately respawn where I would only experience a level drop of 1. No, that's wrong too. I will from the beginning have the title ‘sang wanderer true’ so that a game penalty like that will not apply to me. After the game over, I will only immediately be summoned back to the arena in one piece.
So the more there is no reason for me not to sacrifice this body for the sake of Igun. Thus, this young griffon could survive and feel his name living freely which he had never felt.
I just pray that the banshee curse of the dark race will not affect my real body. To put it bluntly, I was actually also afraid of getting to where the influence of the attack power of the ruthless demon race was. Will it really affect my real body? But what can I do. This is the wisest decision I can make right now.
However, it was at that moment that there was a sudden strangeness in the AI of my system.
“Money level danger alert!”
“Unidentified creatures are attacking players in the game.”
“Doing instruction manual unidentified hazard prevention.”
In an instant, countless various mecha weapons sprung up in the air along with the appearance of mecha shields that seemed to be made of high-level knowledge from a distant civilization.
The mecha shield also resisted the attack of the demon so that both I and Igun could survive from that place. I saw that Egi who also seemed to have absolutely no understanding of the situation that was happening was approaching towards me in a dazed look. Yet we were in that place, only able to witness the prowess of the mecha power that seemed to come from that distant civilization.
“Fucking system! You want to beat me?! Don't dream!” The demon creature also seemed to start losing its rationality and then attacked with attacks that were also beyond the limits of human imagination.
However, the mecha weapon that he said appeared to come from the system was able to repel each attack so as not to penetrate out and injure us. Not only that, the heap of mecha weapons then began shooting at the demon with a fierce until it seemed the demon began to disintegrate and lose its physical form. In an instant, there were no signs of the demon's existence.
He had actually been exterminated by a being named that system.
“Luca, this?”
“Come, Egi. I don't know. I also just witnessed a scene like this for the first time.”
From the beginning, I've felt that the system is a little strange. He arranged everything in the game so that the dimensional gap where the dangerous things were located was like the plague dragon of level 999, the dark elf subordinate to the demon that had once locked Kak Rahnee away, also Grandma Noni's granddaughter of the original version who has been affected by the demon curse, does not bring its dangerous impact to the game world.
Not only that, though, the game system also formed the mechanism of the mirror world and the shadow world as it was said by the white-haired grandfathers who had a Father-like aura that replaced the damage of the game world with a new part.
What's even more terrifying is that the system doesn't just replace materials, but including the living creatures in it like how he coldly replaced the whereabouts of the deceased Granny Noni and her granddaughter who had been exposed to the demon curse with their doppelganger from the mirror world I finished.
Do not go far to take an example. The existence of the Igun that is currently with us is also one example. He was in fact a doppelganger from the original Igun that came from the mirror world. Yes, where we are now is none other than the mirror world that is replacing the broken part of the game world.
Perhaps, the original Igun that is now gradually thrown into the shadow world in the dimensional gap has long lost its life about not being able to escape from the bondage of the chains.
If the reality essence button did not react and opened that dimensional gap, it meant that it was not something I could deal with with my current strength. I don't yet have enough power to save the original Igun in the shadow world. I have to get stronger.
Egi immediately dragged me out of the portal after a farewell with Igun the griffon. After being outside the portal, returning to the real game world, Brother Silvia immediately approached me and seemed to hug me very tightly because it worried me.
Well, everything finally went smoothly and it seemed that even here, Brother Silvia, Zevan, and Asti, were able to complete the remnants of his quest well while waiting for our arrival.
However, Silvia suddenly lost her brightness when Egi and I told her about Beryl's appearance in the mirror world and how much she worried about me.
My mind could not escape the curiosity about why the legendary figure of darkness like a demon had suddenly appeared in such a place. No, no, not that. More than the demon itself, I was more curious about what exactly the figure named the system was.
Is he really just an AI created by an AD gaming company? If he is just an AI, he is too smart and complex, but on the one hand feels like he has a humanity that makes him feel like a human being.
Not only the ones I mentioned above, the system still has a lot more peculiarities. Like how when I thought about learning where to start in the game, she immediately scolded me like a mother who did not want her child to go down the wrong path where she was not talented.
The system often mocked me like a brother mocking each other when I did silly things. When I found it difficult, he helped me find the solution.
In fact, when I played another game, The Last Blood Game brought by Leo's brother, it might be my feeling, but it seemed the same system also followed me there. So, who exactly is this system?
