Chapter 71

Defense Specialization and the Third Event

Maple logged in and appeared in the guild home .

Sally, Kanade, and Izu were already inside .

“So the event has started!”

“It’s only been five hours, but isn’t it amazing? The top players are already in the 5-digits . Also, Chrome and Kasumi have already gone hunting . ”

“Woah… Everyone’s amazing, huh…”

The four that were left there were still at 0 points . Izu intended to only do a little during this event before stopping .

“I don’t have any attack skills, but I have a little ‘STR’ . ”

Depending on the type of enemies, there was the possibility of defeating them with a smithing hammer .

Of course, her ‘STR’ was higher than Maple’s .

“We should go too . ”

“I suppose . ”

The three of them tried to leave Izu there and go, but she called after them .

Izu handed over some gear to Sally and Maple .

“I made this out of the sheep’s wool . Apparently, the item drop rate will increase depending on the amount of sheep’s wool used . ”

They had been able to acquire quite a lot of sheep’s wool, thanks to Maple .

Kanade’s gear was already using plenty of wool, so there was no need to change it .

The gear that Izu handed over to Sally was the exact same as her current gear, only it was completely white .

Maple’s gear was very sheep-like in appearance .

The entire set was pure white and all of it was covered in fluffy wool .

“It would be quite impossible to make armor out of wool, after all . ”

The great shield and Japanese short sword had to be black due to attack power . This did not really match with the rest of the adorable look, but it could not be helped .

Izu didn’t say it, but the only reason why the gear came out looking like this, was because Izu wanted to see a fluffy looking Maple .

Even if armor was impossible, she could have made normal looking clothes .

This was just the result of her personal tastes .

The three finally left the guild home and all headed off in their separate directions .

It would only become harder to gain points if they stayed together, and this was the best method considering the points they would need for guild rewards and personal rewards .

Maple was on the move as she rode Syrup and looked at the blue panel, inspecting the required points for different rewards .

Visuals of the actual monsters also appeared on the screen . This one was a red cow .

“My speed of mobility is not a good match for this event…”

Even if she was riding Syrup, it was still not even close to Sally’s .

Maple decided that she would just enjoy the event and collect enough points to receive the personal rewards that she wanted .

“I need more points to get that one skill . ”

Maple looked at a certain skill before closing the panel and looking downwards . She saw that there just happened to be a red cow right there .

“‘Hidora’!”

Maple unleashed the Hidora from Syrup and checked her points .

The points had been added exactly .

There was no need to actually check if the monster was dead or alive .

That was how strong it was .

However, there was one condition in using this power .

“Hmm… So there will be enemies with ‘Poison Immunity’ later on…”

Maple’s options for attacks would become incredibly limited should an enemy with ‘Poison Immunity’ appear .

In fact, it would be better for her to run in such a case .

Furthermore, Maple had used poison and paralysis so many times in her attacks, that every player now knew of them . That was also a problem .

Eventually, there would be another event where players fight against each other, and by then many would have acquired ‘Poison Resistance’ .

Taking measures against Maple had already become a normal thing for stronger players .

There were even players who would be able to beat her if they made the necessary preparations .
