Chapter 290

"Somehow, I feel like I've heard the name before."

"So that's a, Troll huh.."

................

I guess that means, even if it's got a special skill like 【Super.Regeneration Type III】, there's no living creature that can survive having it's head cut off.

The moment the flames from the {Flame Thrower} hit the wound where we cut off their heads, an ear piercing scream was let out as they died, and we were able to finish off the Trolls.

【Troll Race】

【Manufacture Date: 27/12/7445】

【Durability: 72】

【The wound was burnt after being detached so the tissue has died.】

Since the huge head was rolling around on top of the ice with an unpleasant~ look after Identifying for some reason it p.i.s.sed me off so I was going to kick it away from the ice..but it looked heavy and I didn't want to hurt my ankle. While ignoring the head I got ready to use {Anti-Magic Field} to erase the ice and told everyone to get off the ice.

By the time we returned to the troll room, the stomach of the Giant Mantis was already eaten and the upper body of it was still dragging itself along as it tried to leave the room. I don't know why but for some reason it didn't show any interest in us so we we moved to the edge of the pa.s.sage and a short while after seeing it pa.s.s by us, Bel shot it with {Flame Javelin} and completely killed it.

During that the Trolls were, I don't know if it's after meal exercise, but they were wandering around the room.

I hit it with {Flame Arbalest Missile} as well. Ah, I guess it didn't need the missile like this.

But what in the world..when I used Identify on it just now it clearly had the details of a non-living creature! Putting aside the giant crickets which originally had low HP, it's not as if some of the large insect monsters like the mantis or centipedes don't continue moving for a short while after losing their heads but that's all limited to just the bugs. The first time we saw it since it just wasn't seeming to die I think Ralpha tried confirming it with {Detect.Life} was it. She said, "There's no reaction so it should be dead!" and things almost went into a panic. I was surprised as well. It was a strange situation where even though Identify said 【Condition: Death】, it still had MP remaining.

Zenom calmly said, "It's probably something like an undead right" and cut it into pieces down to the body killing it. A short while after that we found out that they were against fire so we started setting them on fire and excluding a few had Basutoral, Zulu, and Angela take them on. In exchange for not being able to aim for their vitals and finish them off in one hit, they don't stop moving until you completely drive their HP into the minus so I thought they would be a good training opponent.

A short while after that I don't really know why but it was identified that the spell {Detect.Life} doesn't work at all against insect type monsters. Since the 8th floor(9th floor?) is mostly made up of insects before we noticed we had stopped using it. Regardless in my case I can see further with Identify.

Just in case I tried using {Detect.Life} again now but obviously neither the head nor the body of the trolls were detected by it.

After it finally stopped moving, I used Identify to check that the details had become that of an object then checked it's status in a way while showing it off to everyone else who was on guard to calm them down, then once again ordered Zulu and Angela to gather the magic stones.

The Identify value on the magic stones from them was roughly 150,000. I guess that means if we sell them they'll be around 1,000,000. When it comes to the counter sale price I guess that's over 1,300,000 huh...I wonder about that? If it's just this level of difference then I think the purchase will be fine though.

In any case, let's proceed ahead. There's another cave further into the room.

Since then we cleared through seven rooms with trolls including the first room. It was a single route forward. The rooms slowly increased in size and as we advanced forward the number of trolls increased by one each. We were also able to confirm that after freezing them and cutting the head off if we burn both of the cuts with fire magic we can weaken them quite a bit. Around the fifth room I intentionally left just one troll alive so we could try fighting it head on.

Since it had been frozen, it's movements were considerably dull and we were able to defeat it by just cutting it normally with swords. If you burn the wounds before it regenerates then it dies just like that.

When we went to enter the eighth room and the route from the teleport crystal stretching up from the seventh room was the same cave-like pa.s.sages up until now but just the room ahead of that was different. The width of it was around 80 meters and inside of that room with a depth probably double that there was the same kind of altar you can see on the 5th and 6th floors.

The difference was that there were no gargoyle statues and the construction of the altar was considerably extravagant.

I wonder if it would be best to bring along extra dried fish next time as an apology?
