Game Maker: Starting by Healing the Players Chapter 263: You Call This a Normal Player?

"I won't spend too much ti talking about preparations. It's just eating als that give you the stats you want, equipping the right weapons and armor, and bringing helpful items."

After eating a al at the hunter's base in Astera, Lucas talked with the Investigator who was still eating endlessly, and then they arrived at area 11 camp in Wildspire Waste.

Then, with comnts from the players in the live stream, Lucas ran toward Diablos's lair.

Sliding down the steep slope at the entrance, they could see the awakened Diablos running outside, seemingly wanting to find so cactus to eat.

"This is considered lucky. We can see Diablos is right at the slope, so we can use the slope to sharpen our weapon. Most players should know how to do this, right?" Lucas said in a very calm tone.

Through the live stream, players saw the hunter controlled by Lucas in the ga sliding down, then jumping up right before getting close to Diablos. At the sa ti, the long sword in his hand slashed at Diablos, landing and following up with a big spin.

The first level of the long sword's white sharpness was activated.

Diablos, surprised by the sudden attack, let out a roar and did a double charge, knocking the Palico flying.

"Generally speaking, if you're very confident in your skills, not bringing a Palico will actually increase your effective damage, because monsters often shift their attention to the Palico."

"And at that mont, if you're a great sword, long sword, or charge blade player, using True Charge Slash, Helm Splitter, or Super Amped Elental Discharge, then it's easy to miss your attack."

"Of course, right now I'm showing everyone a normal long sword player's Diablos hunt, so we'll still bring a Palico because it can help us increase our safety, and healing is also very useful."

"These two continuous horn attacks have a lot of recovery ti, so it's a good ti to steal so hits. A fade slash with spirit blade combo can save two hits, activating the long sword's second level of yellow sharpness."

In the ga, Lucas explained while controlling the hunter with the long sword to attack Diablos.

In the middle of the conversation, the long sword already had two levels of sharpness activated.

Countless hunters watching the live stream, especially long sword users, were instantly stunned.

'What? Already two levels of sharpness?!'

'Normal long sword player's Diablos hunt? Boss Lucas, are you sure you understand what "normal" ans?'

'Going without a Palico, are you trying to kill ?'

'Hey, stop arguing, don't you think it looks easy? Isn't this the normal way to play long sword?'

The live stream was filled with comnts.

At this ti, Lucas continued to demonstrate in the ga.

The Diablos in front of him turned its head and started digging into the ground with its feet.

"This is Diablos's underground attack. You have to be careful at this ti. Foresight Slash only makes you immune to the first hit. The rest is just strong armor and not invincibility. There will be so damage reduction, so when dealing with underground attacks, we better not use Foresight Slash because if you're not good at it, it's easy to lose health."

Lucas said while showing it in the ga.

As Diablos burst out of the ground, the hunter in the ga moved back, and then with a 'ding' sound and a flash of purple light, the long sword's Foresight Slash connected with a spirit blade combo and successfully activated red sharpness. But the hunter still lost a bit of health. At this ti, the Palico kindly gave a vigorwasp to replenish health.

"Dragon charge is the sa as underground, but different from underground, because you have a better chance of adjusting the angle to avoid damage. Besides, Diablos's roar can also be read, but you have to pay attention to the movent before it roars. But it's not recomnded for normal long sword players to use Foresight Slash to counter the roar, because the reward isn't worth the risk. It's better to adjust the angle and use Foresight Slash to counter the dragon charge or normal headbutt attacks."

Lucas said. At that mont, the Diablos in the ga looked up and roared, and the hunter used Foresight Slash, successfully deflecting the roar, gaining immunity to the stun effect, and following up with a spirit blade combo.

A streak of bright red light flowed on the long sword's blade.

The players watching the live stream were stunned at this mont.

'This... already red sharpness?!'

'Wait, Boss Lucas, are you sure you ca here today to teach long sword, and not to show off your skill and act cool?'

'Who can learn this! If the Foresight Slash fails, won't we be carted back to camp!'

'Thank you, Boss Lucas, I've already failed to learn!'

'Oh my god, you can Foresight Slash the roar and the dragon charge? As a professional long sword player, I just learned this!'

'My mind is blown!'

' 1, I'm totally dumbfounded! Am I the so-called normal player?'

The players watching, especially the long sword players, were all in tears.

Is this the sa long sword they knew?

Why did it get to red sharpness so quickly?

Also, the small trick that you still take damage even if you Foresight Slash successfully is useless to them!

And Foresight Slashing the roar, what the heck is Foresight Slashing the roar, how can they react in ti!

"Besides that, it's also very important to use items well, don't ignore these items, and I believe most people probably haven't tried capturing a boss, and just kill them? Taking Diablos as an example, you can use a sonic bomb to blow it out after it digs underground. At this ti, Diablos will be stunned for a long ti. Long sword players can sharpen their weapons safely at this ti," Lucas explained.

After creating so distance, Diablos in front of him started digging into the ground with its thick front legs.

But just as it completely dug into the ground, Lucas controlled the hunter in the ga to switch to the slinger and throw the sonic bomb that was already loaded.

Then they saw the originally ferocious Diablos rolling around on the ground, making painful cries.

It was like it was crying.

At this ti, the hunter in the ga stepped back and did the Helm Splitter!

The hunter, holding the long sword, stabbed Diablos's wing. Even though Diablos had thick skin and scales, this attack still caused blood to splatter.

At the sa ti, the hunter stepped on Diablos's huge body and jumped into the air, raising the long sword high and falling like a teor, slamming it down on Diablos's head.

"Clang!!"

A sharp tallic sound rang out. A dazzling sword light rose from the hunter's long sword in an instant, cutting Diablos's thick horn in half from top to bottom!

With the hunter's attack, Diablos roared again, then fell to the ground with a crash, kicking its legs and struggling desperately.

The hunter's movents in the ga were still very smooth, spirit blade combo to sharpen the blade, then Helm Splitter to attack again.

In the end, Diablos, covered in cuts and with one of its huge horns broken, struggled to get up and wanted to escape.

Following closely behind, they arrived at the second area, and another Helm Splitter deeply pierced Diablos's body, then sliced it in two from top to bottom.

A cold light flashed, and the sword was sheathed.

The screen showed the ssage that the hunt was successful.

Cool, very cool!

But the audience in the live stream was silent.

Could they learn this!
