Everyone is a hero, but I am a second-year player.

40 It's show time!

About two meters away, the fire was shining...

It was a tentacle, flesh-red in color, with the broken part burned into charcoal and emitting a foul smell.

The blood vessels all over the tentacles were throbbing, still in the same state as when they attacked Likolina. It felt indescribably strange.

……

pain!

Yes, it does not cause any pain.

It looks like a living thing, but also like a dead thing. That's why it's weird!

The tentacle was obviously stunned for a moment, and then it quickly disappeared into the depths of the forest.

[Sword Hero: Everyone, get up, the enemy has appeared. 】

Layton, who was sleeping, was startled and the words that suddenly appeared in his mind woke him up from his sleep.

When he jumped up from the ground and raised his shield, he found that Miluko beside him had disappeared.

"Where's Ms. Miruko?!"

Layton asked loudly while looking around vigilantly.

"She will be fine, protect yourself first." An Yi's voice came from the side.

Mi Lu is the fastest person in the team and has received professional assassin training. If she suddenly disappeared, we can only say that she must have hidden herself at the first opportunity.

After all, the system will give a prompt if she dies.

"Whoosh-"

A fleshy tentacle stabbed at Layton who had just climbed up at an extremely fast speed.

"Oh!"

There was a loud sound of shield blocking, and Layton blocked the attack solidly, but he took a few steps back and his arm was numb from the shock.

"The enemy is stronger than me!" Layton reacted immediately.

"Behind."

An Yi's voice suddenly came from Layton's ear.

The moment he turned around, he saw An Yi holding a long sword and cutting off the tentacles that were attacking from behind.

At the same time, he was holding Licorina with his other hand.

"Thank you!" Layton said.

"You look in front, I look behind. Her Highness the Saint, use your skills to attack the direction where the tentacles come out." An Yi immediately began to give orders.

"it is good!"

They both answered at the same time.

Anyi put Licorina down and protected her between herself and Layton.

"Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh-"

Tentacle after tentacle shot out from the darkness of the forest and attacked the three people in the center of the clearing.

An Yi swung the sword in his hand skillfully, cutting off all the tentacles.

However, Layton was completely unable to keep up with the speed of the tentacles, and was in a state of panic, even being hit many times.

Likolina didn't have the energy to attack the base of the tentacles, so she could only continue to help Layton attack the tentacles.

If she didn't help, she herself would be attacked because Layton couldn't completely help her block all attacks.

An Yi actually expected this.

Rather, this was exactly the development he had imagined.

It would be incredible if Layton could easily fend off the tentacle attacks and Licorina could also attack the roots as commanded.

[F-level copy: Slime Forest

Mission objective: Kill King Slime

Recommended number: 4+

Recommended level: Lv5

The level 5 here refers to the level 5 when all attributes are evenly distributed.

If your attributes are seriously "biased", you must at least raise your agility and endurance to 7 points to cope with this dungeon.

It's true that Slime is very weak. Compared with Goblins of the same level, it's nothing.

But the Slime's weakness results in the Slime King, which is extremely difficult to defeat in the early stages.

[The first stage of the copy:

Survive the attack of King Slime's tentacles and find King Slime's body. 】

The difficulty of this dungeon lies in the fact that the system will not display information about the dungeon until the Slime King is found for the first time and a prompt appears.

As a fun BOSS that is "triggered by medicine", its first wave of attack is a surprise attack without any warning.

Even in the game, many players died after resisting the tentacles for a long time without even knowing how to find their real body in the forest.

And in this world, such a mechanism is enough to eliminate a large number of heroes.

This is not a God's perspective, and you cannot respawn in the main city and then look up guides online.

Only those brave warriors who resist the attacks while searching for the source of the tentacles can eventually find the real body of the Slime King.

However, in An Yi's opinion, this team should have no problem dealing with the Slime King.

because……

……

"Where is the source of the attack..."

Miluko rushed through the forest, easily dodging tentacle attacks one after another.

It was true that these tentacles were moving very fast, but in her eyes they were like slow motion.

She definitely can't defeat the tentacles head-on, but can't she dodge?

While the other three were fighting the tentacle attacks, she had completed the most basic investigation by circling the clearing.

All the tentacles originate from the ground, as if they grew out of thin air, breaking through the ground and then launching an attack.

The source of the attack is underground.

It seems like this is just nonsense, but...

Is it that the entire earth is their enemy, or is each tentacle an independent creature, or do they share an independent body?

If this forest is full of their enemies, it would be best to escape from here overnight or burn the forest down.

If each tentacle is an independent organism, then with Miluk's speed and Likolina's Judgment they can break through them one by one.

If they share an independent entity, it will be easier to solve. You just need to find where the entity is.

However, Mi Lu is more inclined to the last answer.

After observation, she found that the movements of these tentacles actually follow a certain pattern.

If the entire land was attacking or the tentacles were separate organisms, the attack would have been chaotic.

The forest has no brains and may just attack randomly out of instinct.

Individual creatures should behave in a "each fighting their own" manner, and even if there is a certain rhythm, they will not appear to be too orderly.

But the attack method we have seen so far is basically to let a dozen tentacles attack at intervals.

Perhaps the three people being attacked couldn't see it clearly, but from Miluko's perspective, she could see it clearly.

If she guessed correctly, the creature controlling the tentacles must be a not very smart creature, because the attack method was too rigid.

Just then, a tentacle flashed across her eyes.

A severed tentacle.

Suddenly, the broken tentacle secreted a gelatinous substance, quickly restored its original shape, and then turned into the color of flesh and blood.

"etc!"

In other words, those fleshy tentacles were fake? !

The opponent is a slime!

It is disguising its true identity as a slime!

If the opponent is a slime...

Then there must be a core!

So as long as we find the real body, we can kill the opponent!

"No one has noticed this yet, right?"

Mi Luke was secretly delighted in her heart.

If the three of them were still defending, she would have killed the tentacles by herself, and she would have been worshipped by the three of them!

"Okay! Now it's my turn to perform!"

Suddenly, a message came out in the chat group.

[Sword Hero: Ms. Miruko, have you found the opponent's true form? ]

Miluko: “…”

[The Thorn Brave has joined the chat group!

The Thorn Hero: Ah, not yet. 】

Why did he notice it too? ! !

41 Such great kindness cannot be repaid!

"Miluko went to find the real body? What is the real body?" Likolina asked puzzledly.

“The attacks of these tentacles follow certain patterns, and the patterns are not complicated.

These tentacles can obviously attack and harass us from blind spots, but they can only perform simple whipping and stabbing actions.

It is very likely that the opponent will not be able to accurately control the movements of these tentacles under such a high-frequency attack.

If each tentacle is a separate life, then their attack methods must be irregular in rhythm and varied in moves.

If the whipping doesn't work, it will be replaced by stabbing, and if the stabbing doesn't work, it will be replaced by entanglement. If the air attack doesn't work, it will be replaced by the ground, and if the ground attack doesn't work, it will be replaced by the front.

It's like a group of people playing rock-paper-scissors. Although there are only three gestures, everyone has different ideas, and even the speed of punching after shouting three, two, one varies.

Only when there is only one enemy under control will the current attack method with a single and fixed rhythm appear.

When you have time in the future, you can try it. Use one hand to draw a square and the other hand to draw a circle. You will find that it is difficult to get the desired shape, and you will often draw a circle or a square with both hands.

The same is true of the enemy's current situation.

It uses one hand to control the whipping and the other hand to control the stabbing, so it is difficult to perform more complex and delicate movements.

At the same time, this also shows that the other party may not be a highly intelligent creature."

An Yi explained to Likolina while chopping the tentacles from all directions.

At this moment, both Licorina and Layton were somewhat surprised.

Can you analyze such detailed information just by hitting the tentacles for a while? !

And he didn't look tired at all when cleaning the tentacles!

Layton and Licorina were responsible for clearing the tentacles in front of them. Not to mention grasping the opponent's rhythm, they were even a little flustered in dealing with them.

An Yi was completely stress-free and able to remain calm while analyzing the situation...
