The Absolute Speed of a Certain Comic 124

Title: Supporter and Spirit

“Roooaaar-!”

The snow-white silverback gorilla beat its chest and let out a brutal roar like a hunting beast.

In the thick fog, Hoshiharu held the Nameless Sword in his hand, with a serious expression on his face, ready for battle.

This is the 12th Floor.

Here, a group of three people encountered a very strong monster – the Silverback.

This monster was covered in snow-white fur. The muscles on its shoulders and arms bulged excessively on its strong body. Its silver hair hung down along its tail behind it.

In terms of threat level, this was only Level 1, but its strength and agility were extraordinary, making it the best among upper-floor monsters.

*BAM*

The Silverback punched the ground in front of Hoshiharu, creating a large hole in the grass. Then it quickly spun its body and chased its opponent, who was hiding to the side.

Every time this monster punched, Hoshiharu would get the illusion that he would be blown away. He didn’t dare to face it head-on. He could only use his strong vision to see its movements and work with his intuition to dodge its attacks to the limit again and again.

“Should I help?”

“No need!”

Line’s very nervous voice came from behind.

From her perspective, Hoshiharu could be hit by the Silverback’s fist at any time, and every time he dodged, it was very dangerous, as if he had to set a table and have a feast if he wasn’t careful.

She wanted to help, but Hoshiharu insisted on facing it alone, so she didn’t step forward. However, judging from the fact that he still had time to respond, there shouldn’t be any danger.

Hoshiharu was also very agile. Under the constant pursuit of the Silverback, he could dodge like an agile monkey.

Compared to a few days ago, Hoshiharu’s speed had increased significantly. Facing a monster like the Silverback was no longer difficult. Sometimes, he could leave a slash on the Silverback’s body with a swing of his knife, making it roar in anger.

“Roooaaar!”

Attracted by the fight here, another Silverback ran over while roaring.

Its red eyes swept over its fellow in battle, and instead of catching its prey, it targeted Line and Lefiya.

Line wasn’t worried at all.

“Lefiya!”

She pointed at the Silverback and shouted, as if calling a pet.

“Eh!”

Lefiya raised the staff in her hand and struck the charging Silverback with its handle.

*BAM*

The Silverback’s head was hit by the staff, and its whole body froze. Then its eyes slowly lost focus, and it fell limply to the ground.

It looked like a light blow, but it could make the Silverback faint.

“As expected from Lefiya, Level 3 can be relied on!”

Line praised Lefiya, then took out a knife, stepped forward, and slit the throat of the fainted Silverback. After that, she also collected its magic stone.

“No, it’s just that Riveria-sama taught me well.”

Lefiya rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment, her face slightly red, she was very happy to be praised.

Riveria taught her how to use the staff.

Compared to her talent in magic, her staff skills could be described as beginner, and she could only rely on her Level 3 physique to suppress Level 1 monsters.

*Pu-chi*

On the other side, with the sound of a sword entering flesh, the Silverback was also slit at the neck by Hoshiharu with a swing as intricate as a silver snake, and it disappeared into black smoke.

“Seeing it up close, your swordsmanship is impressive, but I think your evasion skills are even better.”

Line also walked over, took the magic stone dropped by the Silverback killed by Hoshiharu, and put it into the large backpack she carried.

Since she was a backliner, the pressure on her was very small, so she also played the role of Supporter.

The so-called Supporter, in short, is a follower of adventurers, non-combatants, mainly responsible for carrying luggage, spare weapons, and picking up magic stones.

This has even become a profession in Orario, because adventurers must concentrate on facing monsters and cannot carry too much burden on their bodies, often they cannot pick up too many magic stones, and they have to endure the pain of many dropped items.

At this time, the role of Supporter comes into play. They can collect as many magic stones as adventurers cannot take, and after converting them into money, they can share them with adventurers in a fixed amount.

Under normal circumstances, bringing a Supporter can double the income from exploring the dungeon every day, although 50 or 50%, it is very beneficial.

However, because Supporters do not contribute at all against monsters, they still need protection from adventurers, and after the work is done, they have to share a large amount of money with them and at the same time, they also feel very unbalanced and feel that they are the only ones taking risks too unfairly, so adventurers often bully Supporters, or even go back on their word and steal all the money.

However, if adventurers and Supporters come from the same Familia, there will be no problem. At this moment, Line played the role of Supporter, carrying Hoshiharu’s big bag on her body, and there would be no conflict if they divided it later.

“The entrance to the 13th Floor is ahead. Please stop for a moment.”

Following the path they followed last time, Hoshiharu and the two girls arrived at the corridor leading to the 13th Floor, and then stopped.

“Line, take out the fire dragon armor from your backpack.”

“OK.”

After hearing this, Line took off her backpack and took out three sets of red clothing.

The red fabric was full of luster, and the material was very soft and light. You could hardly feel its weight at first glance. This set of clothing included undergarments, shorts, casual clothes, cloaks, etc., with various forms of a complete set of clothing.

Spirit protective garment.

It is a work made by spirits by injecting their own magical power, containing the protection of spirits and having very magical effects. Depending on the race of the spirit that gives the magical power, the protective garment itself has magic that also varies.

“No matter how many times I see it, the work of spirits is amazing!”

Lefiya stroked the fire dragon protective garment, with an expression of admiration on her face.

As a member of the elves, she grew up listening to stories about spirits, so she greatly admired the transcendent existence of spirits.

Spirit.

It is a creature that almost only exists in myths and legends. It is also called holy spirit, Nymph, element, demon spirit, etc. It is known as the race closest to the gods and has the reputation of “god’s clone”.

It is said that in ancient times, spirits helped heroes fight against monsters that came out of the dungeon and caused trouble. This is described in various books and picture books. For ancient heroes, the help of spirits was almost the same as the blessing of gods. But now such blessings are not as good as before.

When talking about spirits, Lefiya, who was originally very quiet, became eloquent.
