How to survive in a soul-based game with full female mods

Before they had gone far, centipedes about the size of humans slowly emerged from the cracks in the rocks. They were the same as the monsters that had been crushed by the rocks when they fell.

Because it is a random monster, the monster mechanism is very simple. It is immediately bounced back when it attacks, and then its head is cut off by the blood sword and chopped into pieces.

The centipede monster's attack mode is clearly a biting attack with its jaws, which seems to be impossible to deflect. However, the amazing thing is that the player can easily deflect it by simply waving the weapon, and then the monster will fall into a stiff state.

So he'd chopped off about ten centipedes like that? Rumble—the ground shook from afar. This meant the second stage was getting closer. Lin Yinxi quickened his pace.

After exiting the narrow path through the rock crevice, a cavern of similar size appeared. The difference was that a massive rock pillar towered in the center, reaching the ceiling.

This pillar is the key to the boss's second phase. Everything else is the same as the first phase, except this time instead of having the Rock Centipede crash into the rock wall, you have to have it crash into the pillar 20 times.

"It's just as boring either way."

If this boring attack mode is within 5 times, it should be acceptable.

Boom boom boom boom! With a loud bang, the rock centipede broke through the rocks on the opposite side and jumped out. Lin Yinxi calmly dodged the flying rock fragments.

Compared to the first stage, the guy looked quite miserable.

The shell on its head hit the rock wall 20 times, leaving tiny cracks. It seemed to be more manic than before. As soon as it saw Lin Yinxi appear, its jaw trembled wildly.

The moment they met, the rock centipede's upper body began to charge, as if to crush him into a pool of rotten flesh. As Lin Yinxi rolled and dodged the giant insect's attack, he could feel a rock shockwave surge from behind him, sending rock fragments flying everywhere.

"You can't use the parry at this time."

The situation at this time is similar to the situation when we fought against the Headless Horseman.

If you use Parry when a monster is sprinting or attacking at full speed, the player's body will be knocked back by the shockwave and end up bearing the brunt of the blows.

As a result, every attack from the Rock Centipede now causes a delay after being deflected, making it impossible to dodge the next attack. Therefore, rolling is the only option, making the already boring boss battle even more boring.

The rock centipede snatched up a nearby rock with its jaws and raised its head. No, it didn't just raise it high, but bent its entire upper body backward.

"The pre-swing is so long..."

The rock flew towards him almost five seconds after he hid behind the rock wall. From the other side of the rock wall came the sound of rock breaking and debris flying.

Confirming that the human who had played a trick on it was still alive, the rock centipede twisted its body and threw a tantrum. It lowered its body to the ground again, signaling it was ready to charge.

The rock centipede slowly began to move. Lin Yinxi watched it quietly, then followed its pace, moving his feet bit by bit. There was almost no need to run.

This stage is a bit more difficult than the first stage because you need to keep a certain distance from the guy and lure him onto the rock pillar. If you get too far away, the guy will cancel his charge mode.

At that time, we need to lure it to charge again.

"Shit, seriously..."

If its charge speed is faster than the player's, even if it is criticized for being difficult, it will not be criticized to the extent it is now.

Lin Yinxi circled the cave, luring the centipede boss to the rock pillar. The rock centipede was running at full speed. Even so, its speed was very slow, and it yawned twice along the way.

Lin Yinxi watched it quietly, and when the distance was completely closed, he rolled to the side. Beside him, the rumbling sound of rocks breaking could be heard again.

Rumble——!

"Again?"

When this sound that came from nowhere appeared again, accompanied by the vibration of the entire cave, Liz frowned.

How many times has this happened? I don't know... I was quiet for a while, thought it was over, and now it's back.

“Isn’t this place going to collapse?”

"I'm not sure. It doesn't look like a sign of foundation collapse. It's too intermittent, and the amplitude of the shaking is so large. Any number of possibilities are possible."

"Could it be a monster?"

061. Guess

"Monster...?"

Erica was speechless at Alice's hypothesis. If a monster large enough to shake the entire cave appeared, that would be a problem.

"If it's a monster, then we can at least try to kill it. A monster that can cause this level of vibration must be ridiculously large, but fighting such a monster is at least more worthwhile than being buried alive in a collapsed cave."

"Indeed, it's better to die fighting monsters than being buried alive here."

"Hey, why do you have to base this on death? Stop saying those unlucky things!"

Liz, who was walking in front, turned around and complained, her tone tinged with sarcasm. She had been in this state ever since the newcomer suddenly started going alone.

"I'm just saying what could happen, sister. Besides, I don't think we'll die here at all. Didn't you hear what the newcomer said, too?"

As she said, none of the three people here showed any signs of anxiety, even though they might be trapped in the collapsed cave and die of starvation or dehydration if they were not careful.

"I know, he said he'd wait downstairs..."

This is what Lin Yinxi said when he fell. Just keep going down, I will wait for you below.

The words contained the confidence that the things the Knights Generals feared would never happen.

"Yeah, since the new guy said that, now all we have to do is go down quickly. I can't let him wait down there alone, and I have something to say to him."

"Well, I have to say something this time too."

Liz, Erica, and Alice were all like this. This time, they would definitely nag him more seriously, letting him know that in the future, such matters must be explained in advance and not to worry them.

None of them thought the new guy would die. It was just that he always seemed to know something, and every time he did something, there would always be some surprising results.

This time will probably be the same.

Rumble——!

"Oh, really! What the hell has been going on since just now?"

"... Let's hurry up and meet up with him as soon as possible."

"Well, anyway, there's no point in dragging it out here."

The three of them ran downstairs without paying attention to the surrounding security. Since they had been told that there was nothing here, they went straight ahead without hesitation.

Just as Lin Yinxi had said, the three encountered nothing along the way. Not even the source of the earthquake that resonated throughout the cave, let alone ordinary monsters.

The road extended very flatly downwards, and the three of them went deep underground.

"Here, what on earth...?"

Deep underground, what comes into view is a huge centipede-shaped rock.

Part of its body had been crushed by a thick and heavy rock pillar.

"...Erica, what do you think this is?"

"Hmm, a centipede-shaped rock...is that it?"

Alice and Erica walked closer to the centipede-shaped rock. The part pressed under the pillar was completely shattered, and the other parts were also in abnormal condition.

Liz observed the surface of the centipede rock. Before she touched it, the rock suddenly collapsed where she was looking, which scared her.

"Could it be a monster-shaped rock sculpture? Do you think such bizarre-shaped rocks could be naturally formed?"

"I think it's unlikely. Even if it was carved from rock, it would be difficult to create such a delicate appearance. If there was a sculptor who could carve such a perfect and gigantic sculpture out of rock, he would have been ordered around by the nobles long ago. How could he be here?"

"I also think so."

Alice took off her helmet, and her silver hair cascaded back.

"I think this rock must be a monster."

"impossible......"

"That's what I think. This is the body of a rock-like monster. No, to be more precise, it's part of a monster's body, because it has traces of being crushed by a rock pillar and then broken."

"The part that's here alone is this big, so the complete part should be even bigger, right?"

"Well, it feels at least ten times bigger. I'm guessing its original height was about the same as the castle we live in."

"Could this be the reason for the strange vibrations before?"

Alice's silver eyes scanned the pillars pressing down on the centipede rock.

It broke from the bottom and tilted forward. The fracture surface was very sharp and there were pieces of broken stone scattered everywhere. It could be seen that the rock pillar was broken not long ago.

It seemed that the structure was unstable due to continuous impact somewhere and was eventually shattered, but there were no signs of actual weapon damage.

"I'm not sure, but that's probably the case. Somehow, it seems like this thing keeps ramming into the rock pillars. That's what's causing the pillars to break and become what they are now. And the vibrations we're feeling are probably also caused by the centipede ramming into the rock pillars."

"That's probably why the marks on the rock face are there. It feels like all the conditions are right now."

Erica recalled the wide hole she had seen in the rock wall she had passed by about ten minutes ago. The bedrock on the ground had all been overturned and destroyed, and various cracks had appeared on the rock wall, and it had even collapsed completely.

At the time, it was unknown why such signs of damage appeared underground, but if they were caused by this centipede monster crashing into the rock walls and pillars, then it could be explained.

"This must be the truth. All the strange phenomena we experienced were caused by this centipede."

Alice stroked the surface of the centipede rock. Although she couldn't feel anything due to the gloves she was wearing, the sound of the metal gauntlets colliding and the hard texture of the surface made it clear that it was unmistakable rock fragments.

If it weren't so delicate, if it didn't look like a centipede at first glance, Alice would definitely think it was just a stone.

"Where did the rest go? Did they die?"

The body of the rock centipede was broken by a huge stone pillar. Alice jumped over it very lightly, and Erica followed closely behind.

On the other side of the rock pillar was a broken section of a centipede that had been torn into pieces, looking as if its joints had been forcibly torn apart by something.

"It's probably not dead. Look here, the joints are unnaturally torn. It must have been crushed under the rock pillar and broken. It either tore its own body apart to escape, or was broken by the violent impact. The front half must have escaped alive."

"This is not good news..."

062. How to explain

"Well, it's doubtful whether our attacks will be effective against such a massive monster. If it were ordinary rock, we could probably cut it with a little more force, but if it's truly a monster, its surface is definitely several times harder than ordinary rock."

Erica stared at the roughly torn cross-section of the centipede-shaped rock. "Who did this?" This question briefly flashed through her mind.

This doubt only lasted a moment. The truth about who had done this was clear at a glance.

"Well, I can probably guess who did it."

"Well, this must be—"

"Of course our handsome new guy did it! It's obvious, right?"

Liz jumped onto the rock pillar from her position, paused briefly, then jumped down again and came to the opposite side where Erica and Alice were.

"......Um."

Alice nodded gently in affirmation. This was exactly what she wanted to say. Who else, besides that daring newcomer, would do such a thing here?

This is not a place where you can just stroll around.

"I'll be waiting for you downstairs... I thought he'd be quiet, but it seems he's already made such a fuss. He's not even aware of other people's concerns..."

"If you want to nag, wait until you meet up with the newcomers and then talk as much as you want. Sister, I won't stop you this time. Alice, considering the current situation, we'd better hurry up."

"Well, let's act quickly."

Alice put her helmet back on, hiding her silver eyes and long silver hair. Liz started walking forward early, followed by Alice and Erica.

There was another rumbling sound in the distance.

Click——!

The rock centipede crashed into the top of the rock wall, and a sharp stalactite fell on its head, making it even more crazy.

The stalactite that hit the rock centipede's head shattered and scattered. The rock centipede that was hit on the head by the stalactite also twisted its joints vigorously, and its whole body was shaking in pain.

This is the terrain kill in stage 3. Just like the first stage, you have to make it hit the wall, but instead of hitting it randomly, you have to make it hit the stalactites on the top of the cave.

This is the only way to make the stalactites fall onto the head of the rock centipede. Repeat this action 20 times and the third stage will be passed.

And this was the 19th time.

If you do this once more, the 1rd stage will end and the battle will jump to the 3th stage, which is known as the real boss battle.

The rock centipede, having gone mad for a while, stood up breathlessly, then bit the ground with its jaws, burrowed into the rock and disappeared.

Because it had bitten off its lower body, which was trapped under the rock pillar, it disappeared much faster than in Phase 2. The legs that were barely hanging on to its torso at the break seemed unable to withstand the friction of the rock and fell off unsteadily.

After falling off the body, it squirmed for a while.

"The Knight Commanders should be here soon."
