Chapter 360: Order of Apostles and Immortal Slayer Beast
Chapter 360: Order of Apostles and Immortal Slayer Beast
After agonizing over what to do with the evening, I couldn't decide and decided to talk to Farida.
"I want to ask you about the Sandwall Desert, okay?"
"Okay? About the trials of God?"
It's obvious, isn't it?
"Yes...it has to do with Anubis, Horus and Sobek's apostles being defeated, doesn't it?"
"I see your point. Even so, it's amazing that Anubis and Horus are defeated. They must have been pretty strong"
"Yeah. It was hard to let them summon a lot"
I guess Anubis and Horus are in the strong category after all.
"I need to collect items, right?"
"Yes. But you can get them by defeating each of the apostles. And don't get items from other people and use them, because you will incur the wrath of God"
So there is no foul play allowed. I asked her what would happen to them and she said that in the desert, they would lose their escape and be targeted by a large army of sphinxes. I decided to stop trying.
"What other apostles are there?"
"There are the apostles of Serket, Maat, Meretseger and Set. Serket Apostle is in Mailia Town and Maat Apostle is supposed to be near Hout Village. Meretseger Apostle is in the valley to get to where the divine ordeal is and Set is camped out in front of the divine ordeal"
So that's pretty much where they're supposed to come out. I thought so, but Anubis is said to be hanging around at night. Horus is said to be targeted when you're flying in the sky. Next time I'm going to go after Serket or Maat.
"The nearest village to Nefert is Hout. The specialty of the village is acacia trees. It is the village where the sandboard that Takuto has is made"
What the heck...we'll have to go there! Sounds like fun!
"Looks like it's decided. Let's go, then. You want to know how strong I am?"
"Are you sure? I don't have an axe"
"I'm stronger with an axe, but I can handle Maat with my bare hands. Set, though, is a tough nut to crack"
That's a lot of confidence. And is Set still the strongest? Then Ribina and Sephone enter.
"I'm coming with you! Bran's not the only one going!"
"Yes, you are! Take me with you"
"Maat has a pet called Ammit, so you shouldn't go with him. He loves the dark attribute and is an immortal killer, so he'll eat you"
""...""
They decided not to go. Well, I guess it's because of Farida and Cruz that they both bother to say so. So I decided to take them only the first time.
I had never heard of Ammit, so Farida gave us some information about him.
"It's a phantom beast with the head of a crocodile, the mane and upper body of a lion and the lower body of a hippopotamus"
I visualized it in my head...a weird beast was formed in my mind.
"The main attacks are sucking and biting. The bite is instant death, so you have to be careful. It will also use its light breath. But it can't fly, so that's something to think about"
It's like a beast version of Gluttony. For now, I started with Ribina, Sephone, Farida, Konoha and Stra.
I got on Stra and off we went.
"Is this the right way? My compass is pointing the other way..."
"No problem. I like this dragon~. It's comfortable"
There are no wyverns in the Sandwall Desert. I'm new to this too, but I strongly feel like I'm flying with wings flapping. Maybe this is what it feels like to be on a bird.
"It's about time...Takuto, it's coming"
What? As I am thinking, a sandstorm suddenly comes flying out of the sand. It would have been bad if not for Farida's warning. Then a giant worm came out of the desert.
Sandworm Lv35
Normal Monster Subjugation Target Active
This guy...could be the monster that became the tentacles of the Disaster Chimaira...I had a feeling that, even though I was dealing with a worm. But still.
"Farida..."
"Don't you think we need to do a little preparation before we fight Maat?"
No offense...I guess she knew this guy was going to be in this place. Oh well.
"Let's go! Stra!"
As I said that, Stra fired a series of flame bullets and the sandworm couldn't resist and ran away into the ground. Then, as usual, I'm going to use earthquake to flush it out.
"No need for that"
Farida jumps down. Swings her fist.
"Concentration...Magic Fist!"
When Farida's magic fist hits the desert, there is a tremendous impact and the sandworm leaps out of the sand.
"Found you~. Magic Fist!"
The sandworm in the air was mercilessly hit by the magic fist and blown away.
Then Sandworms came out one after another. This is bad!
"Oh dear. It looks like they came out from the impact on the ground. That's OK, I'll give them a lot of fun"
I didn't know Farida had this kind of personality. Then the sandworms suck in their breath. Breath from all of them! I panicked, but Farida looked relaxed.
"I'm not going to let you do that to me. Magic Power Interference!"
The Sandworms' breaths failed to fire as Farida released a purple shockwave. What the hell...
"It's a skill that interferes with magic power and blocks skills that use magic power. We'll have to tie them up with e here. I'll beat every last one of them!"
Farida is killing the sandworms one after another with her magic fists...she's looking very lively.
"Takuto...what are you going to do? This?"
"I've been in a daze. I'm coming in!"
"Calm down. They are not the target. If we can't attack at long range, we'll take out the enemies at a distance so they don't get in Farida's way"
In the end, we attacked mainly with Stra's flame bullets and my explosions. Ribina finished off the surviving enemies with magic bullet, Sephone with her shadow spear and finally Sephone's dark wave motion wiped them all out.
"I knew they were getting weaker...well, it's better that way, because I feel like I'm fighting them"
Weakened? There are cruel sandworms lying around Farida...
"I mean, if you knew they were going to be there, you should have told me"
"Umm. Ribina is right!"
She's absolutely right. But I don't think it's a good idea to say it behind my back.
"Is Takuto using Konoha? You chose to evolve the child, but was it extra care?"
I was certainly inclined to aim for Konoha's evolution because it was coming soon.
"Sure, it would be nice if I could evolve Konoha. But even if so, please tell me in advance"
"All right. Then, about the Maat Apostle, Maat deals with the magic of wind, fire and light. Can you leave it to me to deal with the Maat Apostle?"
You've done battle, including this one. I thought it was odd because Farida is not compatible with Ammit either. If you can block the magic, then Farida has the advantage.
"I understand. Then I'll leave you to deal with Maat Apostle"
"Thank you. Takuto. I'll live up to your expectations"
""Muu""
Don't be upset. Because we had to decline because we were at a disadvantage.
The result of the dismantling was two clay stones. That's two after all this dismantling. That's not very efficient.
We headed straight for Maat Apostle. Ammit was already there.
Maat Apostle?
? ? ?
Ammit?
? ? ?
Ammit is about the same size as a person. Thank God it's not that big.
We get off and I call Aranea and Mir instead of Ribina and Sephone and give them instructions. Then they dove into the earth.
"I thought about it. That's how I capture Ammit"
"Do you look down?"
"No way. I'm a demon. Of course I love him"
You're not trying to turn me into one of them, are you? I'm just trying to make this easy on you. I stocked up on magic with delay magic before we headed out. Then the Maat Apostle was waiting. What a law-abiding apostle. My conscience aches a little.
When I hold up my staff, the Maat Apostle also holds up his staff. I'm faster at chanting!
""Blitz!""
I release a series of chanted blitzes and Ammit becomes a shield. Okay, now there's no need to be shy. Then the Maat Apostle uses Sandstorm. I get on Stra and flee into the sky.
Stra shoots a flame bullet and Ammit sucks in the flame bullet, which then sucks us in. I already have a plan for that.
"Release!"
The magic circle is drawn on the Ammit's ground, the Maat Apostle leaves and Ammit is hit by an explosion. It's time bomb. Another of Stra's corrosion breaths hits him.
Maat Apostle readies his staff.
"I won't let you! Magic Power Interference!"
Maat Apostle and Ammit are hit by a shockwave, blocking their magic skills.
Ammit tries to go for Farida, but Konoha's feather throwing and Stra's flame bullet slow him down. Then comes a synchro call from Mir.
Takuto-sama! We are ready!
Ready! Drop it!
The pit created by Aranea and Mir is activated. However, Ammit did not fall to the ground. He fell into the adhesive and steel threads set up in the pit and was bound in mid-air.
Immediately, Mir bound Ammit's mouth with vines and Aranea joined in to seal it completely. If opening the mouth is a wonder, then make it impossible to open. In the real capture of crocodiles, the first step is to bind their mouths tightly. If it were a crocodile, there would be nothing we could do about it.
After that, Mir showered the crocodile with pollen and everyone beat it to a pulp with magic and long-range attacks. It looks like it was a one-sided battle on Farida's side as well. She was taking down Maat Apostle faster than we were.
When I dismantled them, I got this.
Book of the Dead: Important Item
A book that is called to revive the dead. It is written in a mysterious language and cannot be read by ordinary things.
Shu: Rarity 6, Accessory, Quality C-
Effect: Improved flight performance (medium), detection
A hair ornament made of ostrich feathers. It has the power to detect lies and falsehoods.
The Book of the Dead is the item...a famous document in ancient Egypt. It is a book buried with the dead to pray for their repose.
Shu is a feather worn by the Maat Apostle. It's useful, though its effect is limited. But it makes it impossible to lie...if I were to equip it, it would be Bran...but I think I'll hold off on that.
Ammit was a dud. They won't give me the materials for immortality.
Then comes the info.
Konohas level has reached 24. Evolution is possible
Then, let's go for evolution!
