I, the Weakest Human, Start with a Hundredfold Bonus Talent!

Chapter 159: Chapter159-The Expected Attack (Part 2)



Watching the people below finally regain their composure and start their counterattack, John suddenly smiled.

"Fear, resilience, a sense of the bigger picture."

"Pride, acuity, insight."

"Recklessness, strength, leadership."

"Elowen, don't you think these three are worth nurturing? Although each has their flaws, they complement each other perfectly."

Even though John didn't name them directly, Elowen understood who he was referring to.

There was no other way; the brilliance these three displayed in moments of crisis far outshone everyone else.

"Meryl, Babylon, Eden. Master John, should we give them special attention?"

"No need, we can't rush their growth."

John shook his head and chuckled, "I'm very much looking forward to seeing what other surprises they can bring me."

Babylon, who acts as the eyes and ears, Meryl, who keeps a cool head at all times, and Eden, who delivers a direct blow to the enemy.

Without a doubt, they were the ones John was expecting great things from.

At this moment, on the battlefield!

Meryl's body trembled like a leaf, yet she forced herself to endure the fear, continuously observing the situation on the field and giving commands at the first opportunity.

"Sister Alice, don't engage the beetle monster head-on. Its back is its blind spot. Those wings are nothing like Master John's; they can't maneuver flexibly. Attack it from behind as much as possible!

"Carter, the spider monster's body is covered with extremely tough bristles. Ordinary weapons can't break through! If possible, try attacking its eyes and abdomen!"

As for Babylon and Eden, Meryl bit her lip but said nothing.

These two were equally outstanding and didn't need her guidance.

Meryl believed that Babylon and Eden would surely succeed in hunting down the snail monster!

"Damn! This acid is so annoying!"

Babylon kicked Eden away and used the recoil to retreat several meters, barely avoiding a direct hit from the acid.

Seeing the corner being corroded, Babylon clenched his teeth, his face growing increasingly grim.

"Eden, are you okay?"

"The battle armor took part of the impact, I'm fine!"

Struggling to stand up, Eden cast a grateful glance at Babylon.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that without Babylon's kick, Eden would have been dissolved by the acid, turning into a pool of blood.

"This beast's acid seems endless. We can't get close at all!" Eden said with a serious expression. "We need to find a way to get closer!"

"We don't necessarily have to get close..."

Babylon frowned and said in a deep voice, "Have you noticed that the acid from this snail monster is sprayed from the antennae on its head? Except for its feet, the rest of its body doesn't get any acid on it."

"What... what does that mean?"

"Eden, I have an idea and I need your help."

"What are you planning to do?"

now.

"I'm not sure, but I think it could work. Please, Eden, help distract it!"

At this point, Eden, although unclear about Babylon's plan, didn't ask further questions. Dodging the acid, he took a deep breath.

"As long as I can distract it, right? That's simple enough."

With that, Eden removed the enchanted battle armor from his chest, immediately feeling much lighter.

"Basically, it's just a dodgeball game. I'm good at this!"

With those words, Eden let out a grunt and charged towards the snail monster at high speed!

As Babylon expected, upon noticing Eden's attempt to approach, the snail monster exhibited strong resistance, spraying acid frantically in an attempt to force Eden back!

Without the enchanted battle armor, Eden's speed was incredibly fast, so fast that the acid always missed him by a step!

Because of this, Babylon finally confirmed his hypothesis.

The beast that was corroding them with acid could not withstand its own highly concentrated acid!

With this knowledge, the solution became clear.

If they could corrode the snail monster's shell with its own acid, it would be defeated without much effort!

"But... achieving that is easier said than done."

John naturally saw through Babylon's plan.

Even he had to admit that Babylon's idea was not wrong.

After all, the reason John summoned such a monster was to provide them with a glimmer of hope.

With their own strength, they couldn't break through the monster's defense. This was an undeniable fact.

That's why John summoned this creature, one that would be full of weaknesses once approached, even becoming a monster that could be used against itself.

In due course, they proved they didn't waste John's efforts, seizing the slim chance of survival amid overwhelming despair.

It's not an exaggeration to say that in a fleeting moment, John seemed to see a shadow of his past self in them.

Facing the unknown with fear, yet finding a miracle to survive within that fear, and willing to do whatever it takes.

"It's over."

"Huh? Master John, what did you say?"

"I said it's over. Although these monsters are still alive, the assessment has ended. This time, everyone scored full marks."

Aside from the impressive performance of Meryl, Babylon, and Eden, what pleased John the most was the behavior of the others.

In such a critical moment, no one exhibited excessive self-awareness.

No one tried to be the main character by ignoring warnings and advice to insist on their own ideas.

Everyone played their roles well, which was the most commendable aspect.

"Although they are still very weak, and perhaps in the future their strength will never change, their thinking, experience, and courage will evolve through continuous honing.

As for the strength that cannot be improved, I will solve that problem for them."

...

"John and Elaria still haven't returned. It's already the third day. They said we would set off for Spartonia today.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what a city blessed by the God of War looks like."

"Haha, I fear it won't disappoint you, Exiled Immortal boy. I've heard many people talk about Spartonia, and the most common description is... barbaric."

Old Mac took a swig of wheat beer, sighed contentedly, and continued, "That world that esteems brute strength probably isn't very friendly to my old bones. Oh, and Lily and Elaria too. They probably won't have it easy in Spartonia.

Spartonia values physical strength and rejects magic to an extreme degree.

In Spartonia, almost no magic can be used.

Once in Spartonia, Lily will be no different from an ordinary person."

Upon hearing this, Lily's eyes widened in shock. "Is it really that serious?"

"Of course, the reality is even more exaggerated than what I described. So, the trip to Spartonia won't be that easy. For Qing, though, going to Spartonia is like returning home. Spartonia doesn't forbid combat; you can challenge anyone to a duel right on the street.

As long as no lives are lost, you can fight all you want. The Spartonia marshals patrolling the streets won't stop you. In fact, they might even punish the person who refuses the duel and cheer you on from the sidelines."

"That really is... haha, quite a place."

Qing grinned, clearly very satisfied with Spartonia. Indeed, in a past life, after arriving in Spartonia, Qing single-handedly toppled half of Spartonia City, thriving as if he were a fish in water.

Unfortunately, it was hard on Lily...

"So, before we set off, you should enjoy the current peace as much as possible. Once we reach Spartonia, these quiet days will be scarce."

"Uncle Mac, please stop. I have no interest in Spartonia anymore... If possible, I'd like to return to the Deep Forest and join you after you've left Spartonia."

Lily sighed softly, her face showing some distress. If things were indeed as described, how was she, a Priest of the Stars, supposed to cope?
