Chapter 199
Nihonium, bas.e.m.e.nt 8th floor .
It’s been awhile since I came down here all by myself .
For farming, I would bring Leia with me, but since this is my first time coming to this floor, I’m here by myself .
If sometime were to happen then at least I’m alone—-was what I had in mind when coming here .
Upon entering the 8th floor, I immediately encountered a monster .
It was another zombie again, but it wasn’t just your typical zombie .
It has your typical human body, but it was crawling on all fours .
With its clothes teared up, showing it’s pink and bulging muscles .
Plus, the strangest thing from it was the 3 elongated necks protruding from its body .
A human body zombie hydra hybrid .
Those words floated around my mind when seeing such an abomination .
[Let’s try something simple first . ] (Ryouta)
The 3 heads all looked alike, and their faces looked as if they’re triplets .
Thus, I aimed at one of the heads and fired a Normal Bullet .
The bullet travelled right at the center of its forehead, dealing a cleared headshot .
However, there was no effect .
The bullet lost its momentum as soon as it touches the forehead .
Nothing happened at all .
The body of the zombie remained crawling, then the neck disappeared like haze, before emerging back to 3 of its heads .
[It looks kinda… . . ] (Ryouta)
While mumbling to myself, I fired another bullet——Ugh!
The moment I headshotted it, a shock suddenly came from my guts .
My vision turned white, and my consciousness was about to fly .
When my upper body was being hit and wobbled, the Zombie was jumping around .
I backed off immediately and rolled on the ground .
As soon as I got up on my knees, the zombie’s heads disappeared again, and the 3 heads appeared again .
Based on my judgement, after going through countless amount of battles, those 3 heads are its true body .
Then, wanting to confirm something else, I fired a Normal Bullet at the Zombie’s legs .
The bullet flew towards the legs and blown it away, but immediately it regenerated—–The regeneration was so fast that it didn’t even lose its balance .
Firing at its other legs, the results were similar .
The zombie that was hopping around didn’t feel any sense of exhaustion whatsoever, as its pressuring me with its attacks .
It’s most likely that besides the head, the other body has no effect from being hit .
Its weakness is the head, moreover it’s one of the three heads .
And I predict that the 3 heads has its own abilities .
To test that theory out, I fired at the heads .
I fired in between the eyebrows, then the heads disappeared before reappearing .
After the 4th shot, at last I shot the head and the Zombie collapsed and the body scattered .
As I predicted .
The 3 heads, one of it is invincible, one can reflect damage, and the last one is its weakness .
The invincible one is obviously… . . untouchable .
The reflecting damage probably deals 3 times the damage dealt . If my HP and Stamina wasn’t at SS, the reflected damage might’ve killed me .
Then the last head, is its only weakness to kill it .
The problem now is how to identify which head—–rather than hitting all 3 of the heads and hopefully I hit the right one .
A dangerous Trio zombie, forcing opponents to make a ⅓ choice .
Anyways, I picked up the drop seed .
——Luck has been increased by 1 .
My ability has risen, but the opponent is rather annoying to deal with .
Then, the next zombie was soon spotted .
I do have Repet.i.tion, but I’m sealing that for the time being .
Before I can find the best way to defeat it, I’m sealing it .
However, what am I gonna do about this… . Oh that’s right, Homing Bullets .
The Homing Bullet that’s dropped by the trash rogue monster, Frankenstein .
Being able to home at the opponents weakness, a bullet that is also used during the battles against the Dungeon Masters .
Loading that, I fired at the Zombie .
The Homing Bullet finds its trajectory, before homing in on one of the heads .
[——Guha!] (Ryouta)
The moment it landed the hit, my vision blurred and turned white for a split second .
The impact this time was even more severe, as it was too late for me to return to reality before the Zombie bit me .
I quickly punched at the head that was biting at me .
But apparently it was the invincible head, as soon as I punched it, the neck disappeared and it stopped biting me .
Catching that opportunity, I kicked the ground and jumped backwards for safety .
Then immediately injected myself with the Recovery Bullet .
Phew… . that was dangerous .
Even though the Homing Bullet could aim at the weakness, how come… . . ?
After thinking for a moment, one hypothesis came in mind .
Again I fired another Homing Bullet, but this time I had the Recovery Bullet on standby .
As soon as the Homing Bullet landed, I fired the Recovery Bullet on myself .
Again it tried to attack me, but before it could do that I’ve already recovered enough to avoid its attack .
It might be due to the fact that out of the 3 heads, the head that reflects damage has the lowest defence .
Thus why the Homing Bullet aimed at that head .
Which also means that the Homing Bullet would only aim at the reflect head .
[It’s fine by me . ] (Ryouta)
I smiled .
With 3 Homing Bullets loaded, this time I rushed towards the Zombie while shooting towards the opposite direction .
Then concentrating, I looked at the bullets trajectory .
Inside the world of a SS Speed, I could see the orbital of the bullet aiming at one of the heads .
At that moment, the chances has been reduced from a one-third to a half chance .
If the Homing Bullets were to always aim at that head, then that means the other two is either the weakness or the invincible head .
Then, running faster than the bullet, I aimed at one of the two heads .
It was the Invincible head .
Then, taking a distance, I once more fired the Homing Bullet and rushed and again I hit at the invincible head .
Once again—-It was the invincible head .
[Come on, this is seriously too unlucky . ] (Ryouta)
I said as I laughed .
Well, at least the Homing Bullets helping me with the odds .
If I were to do that 3 times for that ⅓ chance, the odds of not hitting the right one would be 1/27, but since it’s a ½ chance, missing it 3 times is a ⅛ .
It’s basically a 12 . 5% of not hitting it .
Then finally after the fourth attempt, I hit the right one and the seed dropped .
Thus, I continued with this method .
It took me about 8 tries to defeat 5 bodies, which is about half the time .
[……But then again . ] (Ryouta)
Is this really alright to just leave it as is .
To have a ½ chance, and also having to take the rebound damage from the reflected attack .
Is this really alright to just leave it as is .
To have a ½ chance, and also having to take the rebound damage from the reflected attack .
I mean it works, but I really want to find a way to just hit the correct head .
Is there a way to narrow down my options .
[… . . What if . ] (Ryouta)
There is a possibility in mind . Well if it doesn’t work, at least I tried .
Soon I found a Zombie, then I rapidly fired Recovery Bullets at it .
I fired at each of the 3 heads .
The bullets. .h.i.t, and the glowing aura surrounded the head .
The zombie heads didn’t reset!
This was bingo!
Whenever I hit the wrong head, it would reset itself, but using the Recovery Bullet, it didn’t .
And out of the 3, one of it didn’t have the effect of the recovery, as the bullet dropped on the ground .
That is probably the invincible head . As I could feel the effects of the heal being reflected .
Then, after memorizing which head is which, I loaded the Homing Bullet and prepared the Recovery Bullet .
Then, without moving, I took a deep breath, and focused everything on my eyes .
I fired the Homing Bullet, then look at the 2 heads .
Then rushing sooner than the Homing Bullet could hit, I fired the Recovery Bullet at zero distance, but it didn’t recovery .
Without needing to think further, I blew off the other neck by reflex .
The Zombie was defeated, and it dropped the seed .
Taking the seed, my status rises again .
I was even more happier that I managed to find a way to defeat the zombie rather than my status increasing .
Deducing the heads by using Homing Bullet and Recovery Bullet .
With these 2 bullets, and my SS speed .
So for today, I safely farm at the 8th floor and increased my Luck from F to E .
