My substitute is Thanos

To this...

"You've been playing the lowest-level Balloon Monster before, so the speed of upgrading will naturally be very slow."

Ye Yinkong explained very straightforwardly: "So, if you want to become stronger as soon as possible, you must hunt those high-level monsters."

"Although it is dangerous, the benefits will also increase several times over."

hear this...

"That's what you said."

Naofumi Iwatani glanced at Atalanta who was walking with Raphtalia by the side, then turned his gaze back to Ye Yinkong and asked, "So, where should we find this 'suitable' monster?"

About this question……

"Root Village, nearby mines."

Ye Yinkong spread his hands, "Based on your current situation, don't expect to get any subsidy from the high-level officials of this country."

"So, if you go there, you can not only eliminate the monsters entrenched inside, but also go to the mine to collect rare ore and replenish funds."

At this point, everyone has already walked out of the gate of the capital.

Immediately, he went straight to the direction of Root Village.

Their next action plan is very clear.

But unfortunately, even Ye Yinkong ignored one thing.

Namely: Since each wave breaks through the barriers that separate different planes and connects two different worlds, it undoubtedly means that...

Long before the arrival of the brave, during the outbreak of the first wave, there had already been "guests from another world" entering the shield brave plane.

And they are still hiding their whereabouts.

……

at the same time.

"The common characters here are obviously completely different from our language, but there is no obstacle in conversation."

"The situation has almost been investigated. Fortunately, there is no such thing as 'identity certificate' in this country."

"Is there still a way for us to go back to our hometown?"

"Initial estimates, there may be opportunities when the next 'wave' arrives."

"Then, before that, we need to collect some unique resources that exist in this world."

"Enchanted weapons, sword skills and magic... There is no doubt that these things will allow us to hunt giants more effectively."

"Unfortunately, only the three of us came here this time."

"Thanks to Armin, I finally know what is going on in this special situation."

"Then, in the next few days, let's make a guest appearance as an 'adventurer' profession in this world, and earn a little currency."

"Well, considering that there is such a thing as 'magic' in this world, I don't know whether Alan's giantization can resist that too special power."

"So, try not to conflict with the people here."

"it is good."

Just inside Lute Village, where Ye Yinkong and the others were going, three young men were talking to each other in a stable.

I saw that they were all wearing shawls with hoods.

On the back is a badge that resembles a feather pattern.

On both sides of the body, there are also special silver-gray brackets bound.

The three of them whispered to each other for a while before getting on their horses.

They are going to the capital not far away.

Because there, there is no doubt that there will be more ways out.

Better for gathering intel and resources.

That's it...

"Ok?"

About ten minutes later, the three people who were already galloping on the road happened to pass by Ye Yinkong and his party.

this moment……

The three of them didn't pay much attention to Ye Yinkong and the others who were walking by the roadside.

But Ye Yinkong's side...

"what happened?"

Seeing Ye Yinkong stop abruptly, Atalanta, who is still holding Raphtalia, asked doubtfully, "Is there anything you care about, Master?"

To this...

"There are indeed things I care about... um, but it's not really a doubt."

He withdrew his gaze from the backs of the three of them, as if he already knew something.

immediately……

"Let's go."

He looked at the three people beside him, "The original plan remains unchanged."

"Today is still the time to hunt monsters."

PS: The third update!

I saw friends mentioning the seven-star brave man in the shield brave plane in some posts, so I checked it out.

Well, for the time being, there is no 'armor' device.

There are gauntlets.

This is the right to restrain the upper and lower positions.

Chapter 478 Level doesn't mean everything!

Although Ye Yinkong had made it clear before departure that the hunting process to the mine near Lute Village would be much more dangerous than the step-by-step practice of leveling, but in fact, everyone still did not encounter too much difficulty situation.

because……

"Atalanta, starting tomorrow, when you come to the mine again, you will be in charge of the backup guard."

On the first day when they came to Lute Village, Ye Yinkong made such an arrangement when everyone left from the entrance of the mine.

Yes.

Just because of Atalanta's presence, apart from Ye Yinkong, who already knew many skills, Iwatani Naofumi and Raphtalia didn't have any chance to exercise themselves.

After all, Atalanta, the heroic spirit, belonged to a very top-notch servant.

Although under normal conditions, she only holds a B-rank Anti-Army Noble Phantasm, but in contrast, her 'general attack' is too strong.

The bow of the sky, which is the basic weapon of Atalanta, is a gift from the moon god 'Artemis'.

Once it is full, the arrows fired will have A-level attack power.

In other words, Atalanta is an existence that can break through the defense of Hercules' "Twelve Trials" only by "general attack".

And it is with this kind of attack power that Atalanta not only has agility as high as A-level, but also has two inherent skills of "crossing Arcadia" and "aesthetics of chasing" to increase movement efficiency.

High attack and high sensitivity, plus Atalanta can control the arrows she shoots to turn in mid-air...

With these foundations, even if she was only Lv.1 at first, even if her defense was low, it was impossible for her to be injured by a few monsters.

As for now...

"Master, do you still not change your mind about making Raphtalia a fighting force?"

After several hours of hunting and mining work, including Ye Yinkong, the group's level has reached Lv.10 level.

No way, the upgrade efficiency of the Shield Brave Plane is indeed much slower than that of DNF.

The efficiency of this sudden upgrade to Lv.10 is due to the experience bonus of Ye Yinkong, the armored hero's holy weapon.

However, although the level improvement is limited, both Ye Yinkong and Iwatani Naofumi have unlocked many branches of holy weapons.

For example: After absorbing the rope, Iwatani Naofumi unlocked the rope shield, and Ye Yinkong unlocked the rope armor.

Coupled with the rare ore collected by others when Atalanta was dealing with monsters...

Today, everyone's harvest is not small.

It's a pity that Atalanta seems to have had a big opinion on Raphtalia's arrangement from the very beginning.

To this...

"Atalanta, you should have the memory of getting your own servant form to participate in the Holy Grail War in Tuliphas."

"En." Hearing Ye Yinkong's sudden question about this matter, Atalanta nodded.

immediately……

"Then, you should know that the love for children cannot be blindly doting."

Ye Yinkong said seriously: "Overprotecting the children will only limit their growth."

"And when they grow up, can you still be their guardian?"

"It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish."

He explained earnestly: "The world today is being attacked by 'waves'."

"Sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime."

"If Raphtalia can become stronger and become familiar with fighting, it will also increase her chances of survival."

"Furthermore..."

Seeing that the topic was too heavy, Ye Yinkong joked a bit, "I just asked you to be a backup, but I didn't let you let it go."

"So, when you come to this mine tomorrow, you just need to pay attention, and when Shangwen and Raphtalia can't solve the monsters by themselves, you can relieve their pressure."

"How do you feel?"

After hearing these words...

"Well, I see."

Atalanta nodded, "As expected of the master (world)'s will, you are more considerate than me."

……

What Ye Yinkong said soon came true.

"..."

After coming to Lute Village to explore the mine for about a week, Atalanta couldn't help but fell into deep thought when he saw Raphtalia, who was not far away, who was beheading a two-headed dog with a sword in hand with Naofumi Iwatani.

because……

"Sister Atalanta, today's mission is complete."

In the field of vision, a raccoon demihuman girl who was about the same height as her ran up to her, smiling happily.

Atalanta couldn't have imagined that Raphtalia, who was just a "little loli" a few days ago, would grow so fast now.

Whether it's strength or physical development... it's a bit too fast.

To this...

"The situation of demihumans is quite special. When their own level is rapidly improved, they will increase the age performance of their bodies accordingly."

"Of course, it's just the initial stage."

Ye Yinkong happened to be standing beside Atalanta, so he took advantage of the opportunity to explain.

It is worth mentioning that, now, the level of Ye Yinkong and his party has reached Lv.30.

In fact, if they wanted to level up faster, they could.

But Ye Yinkong knew that an excessively high level was not a good thing for them.
