02x11 - Maxing Defense and New Parties

[bunniefuu]

It's so fast!

We made it this far in an instant!

Being able to fly is so convenient.

Even if the ground is full of monsters,
they don't matter once you fly.

But it's still a bit far
from our destination.

Yeah, the map was shrunk,
but I still can't see the edge.

If we don't hurry, the northern dungeon
might get swallowed.

I'm worried about the fortress.

How was it?

Many of them have gathered up!

It's only a matter of time
before they attack.

I knew it.
Now what do we do?

There are traps in the middle of the cave.

I think we can make it
if we stay here, but...

I understand, sis.

We would like to secure the base

as a form of thanks to Maple
and the others who saved us.

Such beautiful, noble hearts!

We would also like to have
some of the spotlight as well.

Indeed! Offense is the best defense!

We agree!

Let's give it our best out there.

All right, let's go!

Yeah!

Sorry, I take that back!

Hurry back inside the hole!

Bear... Bear...

They're here!

Power Share!

-Tsukimi!
-Bear!

That's really nasty.

Seeing it again,
it sure packed a punch.

Shouldn't we be close to the place
with the dungeon that Sally mentioned?

Maybe it's there?

Bear!

Looks like we're there.

Clear, Transparency!

Ribbit. Ribbit.

-They can't see us with this?
-Yeah.

But it doesn't work
on some monsters, so be careful.

Oh, boy...

I think they'll attack all at once
if we're detected.

Then what do we do?

It won't be easy for us to take
them out with these numbers.

Well, fine.

Shadow, Awaken!

All right Shadow, Shadow World!

Wow...

Look, sis!

We'll go straight through!

Okay!

All right, we managed to avoid
unnecessary battles.

Yeah, traps are pointless
because you can slip through with that.

You're so amazing, Dread!

You really saved us! Thank you!

No problem.

Besides, I will be needing your firepower
when it comes to a boss fight.

That said...

-They really are members of Maple Tree.
-I know.

Okay, time for a boss fight.

Markus, May, Yui, are you all ready?

Yeah, I'm ready.

We're ready too!

All right, then.

Mud Wall!

Get ready, you two!
I'll create an opening!

-Please do!
-Please do!

Shadow! Shadow Pack!

Seems like magic is the way to go.

Wind Cutter!

-It's the special ball...
-That Izu made!

-Dread, now!
-Please do it!

What's with that brute strength?

Spectacle Slash!

Wow!

May! Yui! One more shot!

Okay!

Double Strike!

It got stopped?

May, Yui! Fall back!
Markus! Take care of this!

Remote Location!

Mud Wall! Enclosing Wall!
Bastion! One Night Castle!

How long will it hold?

At this rate, only 30 seconds.

Good enough. Leave the rest to me.

Super Speed!

Shadow, Shadow Dive!

Swiftness! Top Speed!

Double Slash!

-Dread!
-Are you all right?

Yeah, no problem.

We got a medal.

-You're right!
-We did it, sis!

How many do we have again?

It's around five, I think?

Seems like Dread's team
has cleared a dungeon.

I knew they could do it.

Judging by how fast that was,
May and Yui are doing well there.

Yes. I can see it now.

It's just like what Sally said.

This totally looks like
a dungeon's entrance.

Yes, there's no mistaking it.

Looks like it's straight to the boss room.
Good thing it's easy.

Let's enter it.

-Misery.
-Got it.

I'll prepare damage nullification
and recoveries in case it's a trap.

-I'm counting on you.
-Awaken!

Just one?

I see, so that's what's going on.

A monster-summoning type of enemy.

It seems all of them
are capable of long-range attacks.

Then there's only one plan to follow.

All right, I'll buy you some time.

High Waves! Mana Inhibition!

Grand-Scale Magic Barrier!

Do it, Bell!

Light Sword of Holy Dragon!

Let's go, Ray!

Holy Spear!

Fay, Item Strengthen!

Tornado!

Ray, Comet! Sword of Judgment!

Good strategy, right?

Yeah, and our group's arrangement
is good as well.

I was a bit worried
when it summoned more monsters,

but that was a splendid victory.

We obtained one medal.

What do we do now?
There's still time until sunset.

Let's look for the next dungeon.

With this group,
I'm sure we can clear a couple more.

Okay.

This is one heck of a sandstorm.

At this rate, it's going to be hard
to notice the monsters coming closer.

Shin, why don't you try using
your Split-Sword?

Right. It'll react if it hits something.
I'll give it a shot.

Split-Sword!

Round Formation!

There's a reaction.
Doesn't seem like a monster, though.

Let's move, then.

Haku, open up your coil.

Snake!

-This is it, huh?
-So it seems. Good work, Kuromu.

We're finally finding something.

Yeah, this has to be
the dungeon's entrance.

All right!

So you can also use it like this, huh?

Maple gave me a hint.

There are many different ways
to use a skill.

All right.

Seems like we made it.

There's nothing here?

No, there's something in the sand dune.

It seems they're the bosses.

Earth! Shaking Earth!

Wen! Wind God!

Necro! Death Flame!

Here I come!

Be careful, Kasumi!

There's no choice.
Here's my last resort!

Earth! Raging Earth!

Split-Sword!

Blood Blade!

It changed its form!

Fine by me!

Now we can give it
a direct attack!

I'll aggro it.
Use the opening, everyone!

Gotcha!
Let's start with the scorpion!

Necro! Armored!

Strong Armor!

Provocation!

Impact Reflect!

Ground Splitter!

Split-Sword!

Arrowpoint Formation!

Arms of the Warrior!
Second of Sword, Iron Cutter!

Only one left!
Let's do this, Shin!

Gotcha!

It's over surprisingly quick.

What do we do?
Want to try going to another dungeon?

Sounds good.

That said, the sandstorm is going
to give Kuromu another hard time.

Just leave it to me.

I'll push through with my shield
and we should make it somehow.

Commence Attack!

Fireball!

Multi-Firebolt!

Flame Emperor!

Hey, come on.
Aren't there too many monsters?

That just means we're near a dungeon.

Another medal!

Everyone is so fast!

Let's hurry as well.

Look, over there!

Is that the dungeon's entrance?

Want to try approaching it?

Maple's protecting us,
so it should be fine.

But it would be scary
if they have penetrating attacks.

It'll be okay
if we all fly at once though.

By fly, you mean, with that?

Yeah, with this!
Hang on to it, everyone!

So that thing can fly as well.

All right.

What a convenient thing to have.
I don't see any wings on it though.

Make sure you hang on tight, everyone.

Like this?

Like this?

That's right! Please do it, Sally!

Web User!

All right, we're ready, Maple.

What?

Wait, is this the thing that fell
from the sky at the guild battle...

Commence Attack!

We made it! Good job, everyone!

For once, I'm not envious
of this mobility...

Geez! Sally was acting normal,

so I thought it
would fly normally!

I hooked you up so you didn't fall off.

That's not the problem!

There it is! It's the fake Maple!

What? Me?

Well, I get what you mean.

Multi-Barrier!

Knots! Singing Round!

-It's so strong!
-Ignis!

-Nice one, Mii!
-Don't let your guard down.

Maple, what don't you use that
before the day is over?

You're right! Atrocity!

I have nothing
but bad memories of that thing.

Wow!

All of its attacks penetrate defense!

Ignis! Unquenchable Raging Fire!

Okay! Multi-Pressure!

Ice Pillar!

Quintuple Slash!

Sally! Watch out
so you don't get trampled!

Now you've done it!
Here's payback!

Maple, you should fall back soon!

-Maple!
-Maple!

I managed to get away!

Wow...

Let's finish this once and for all!
Frederica! Mii! Maple! Get ready!

-Okay.
-We're always ready.

Syrup, prepare for Spirit Cannon!

Turtle!

Hang on! I'll give you a buff!

Oboro! Spirited Away!

Super Speed!

Pinpoint Attack!

Now, Maple!

Deploy Armaments!

Here are the finishing touches!

Knots! Amplification!

k*lling Flame!

Commence Attack!

Syrup! Spirit Cannon!

Good job, everyone!
It's a success!

Yeah, I see things are going well
over there too.

Payne was with us,
so things were relatively easy.

Thanks to everyone's might...

We also managed to be victorious!

Thanks to everyone holding down the base!

Were things okay?

Yeah! No one rashly went out
and everyone stayed inside!

Naturally. We fulfilled our duty
without any problem.

That's good to hear!

Thanks to everyone
we collected lots of medals.

Thank you so much.

No, we're the ones who should
be thankful.

Cooperation is unexpectedly quite jolly.

They got quite a few medals.

Yeah.

But then again, if we put
monsters stronger than those,

no other players would be able to win.

They're even watching out
for night raids.

So active. They should've just taken
a rest at night inside the game.

The same goes for us.

That may be true,
but the problem is the third day!

If they get even more medals,

we're going to have even
more overtime work.

It'll be all right.

I'm sure these ones will get it done.

Entering the third day.

-Five, four, three, two, one...
-No more working overtime!

I wonder what will happen
on the third day.

I'm sure it's going to be harder
than the first two days.

That said, we've collected enough medals.

We'll achieve our goal
as long as we make it to the end.

Seems like we can just sit here all day.

Indeed. This reminds me
of the second event.

Sally, look at that!

That's the gate
that we entered from yesterday!

Does that thing appear
all over the place on the third day?

This is not good.

If a pack of that thing comes by,

I don't think we can make it
without casualties.

It might be dangerous to stay here...

We'll be unable to escape.

Yeah. And now that
we're in the last phase,

there will be more
powerful monsters out there.

It would be best
if we had a flexible strategy.

So it's decided!

This time, everyone will move out!

-LAST DAY!
-MANY SURVIVORS

SOME STRONG PLAYERS

STRONGEST MONSTER WILL COME

-TOTAL ANNIHILATION?
-MANAGEMENT MIGHT DO IT

-GOOD LUCK, MAPLE!
-KEEP SURVIVING!
