All Stat Slayer

Hyun-seok stared at the Cyclops charging toward him. The battlefield had been opened. Although the media and cameras were regulated, not everyone’s gaze could be controlled. Among them were Slayers who could perceive the battlefield that was visible only in their minds, invisible to the naked eye.

The Slayers assigned to guide Hyun-seok widened their eyes.

“Th… the battlefield…?”

As the levels increased and grew stronger, the presence of support slayers became essential. To enhance the combat abilities of the Slayer, investments in strength, agility, and stamina were necessary. Currently, the cultivation method for Slayers was to allocate a single point to intelligence if available and raise another attribute.  However, raising intelligence stats to unlock the appropriate battlefields for each level was an inefficient way of training. That’s why support slayers were necessary. But that Platinum Slayer casually unfolded the battlefield without any concerns.

“Since I heard the term ‘solo slaying,’ I had some expectations, but…”

“How much did he increase his M/P…?”

“No, there must be some trick behind it. Maybe they invented a new device or possess a unique skill. It could be an item. There’s no way they can solo slay without any means.”

Generally speaking, it was true. To properly open the battlefield, one had to increase the intelligence stat, which was almost useless in combat. It was a basic understanding that if the intelligence stat was raised enough to open the battlefield, one would be inherently weak in combat.

While people murmured and conversed, Hyun-seok focused on what lay ahead.

“Indeed, weaker than the Cyclops we faced last time.”

The speed, strength, and momentum of the approaching Cyclops were all weaker than the one encountered in Korea. Hyun-seok had described monsters with an Easy Mode difficulty level before. Whether it was 2+2 or 2×2, the difficulty remained the same. However, when the numbers became more complex, if you had to choose between addition and multiplication as the relatively easier one, it would probably be addition. It was the same here. The Cyclops was a highly complex calculation, and when the calculation became more complicated, the perceived difficulty would naturally change.

Hooh-!

As the fortress crumbled,

Thud!

Hyun-seok blocked Cyclops’ club with his shield.

Simultaneously, silence fell upon everyone. It was an impossible feat to block Cyclops’ club with a single shield. At least, according to common sense. The seventy high-level slayers didn’t sacrifice their lives for no reason. Those slayers were undoubtedly powerful. And it was precisely that club that ruthlessly slaughtered those formidable slayers.

“Cyclops isn’t attacking…?”

“It’s the same phenomenon as before…!”

The same phenomenon as the slaughtering in Korea last time had occurred. People sought plausible explanations for it.

“There must be some special skill involved!”

There had to be a unique skill. Ratio Heal was also a skill of a highly unusual nature. Judging by Cyclops’ current state, it seemed like he was under the effect of a stun. So, those slayers must possess some special skill that could stun monsters. That’s what everyone thought.

When Cyclops fell into a stunned state,

Thud! Thud! Thud!

A tremendous sound resounded. It was the impact sound of Hyun-seok’s fists and feet striking Cyclops’ legs, making a resounding noise with each blow.

Fortunately for Hyun-seok, the rebound effect from Cyclops’ shield was minimal. Whether it was due to the weakness of Cyclops’ shield, the weak rebound effect, or his own resistance being strong, it was impossible to determine. Nevertheless, the fact that he barely felt any rebound effect was a stroke of luck for Hyun-seok.

In fact, since entering Normal Mode, he hadn’t heard of anyone getting injured or pushed back due to a monster’s rebound effect. There were rumors that after Normal Mode was introduced, the monster’s rebound effect no longer affected the slayers, but it wasn’t certain.

‘Soloing is much easier than group slaying!’

Hyun-seok murmured to himself, realizing that soloing was far more manageable than engaging in group battles.

Instead of group slaying, soloing was much easier. The vast difference between regular slayers and Hyun-seok made it difficult to consider group slaying as actual slaying. Instead, it was his position to protect and fight alongside weaker slayers. However, that was not the case anymore. There was no need for protection.

‘Rather than avoiding… I think it’s better to stun and strike.’

The situation was thoroughly assessed. This method was far more efficient than evading while attacking. Moreover, there was no need to dodge at all. Hyun-seok was an all-stat slayer.

The slayers who could sense the battlefield were left speechless, their eyes widening. Every time the Platinum Slayer struck the Cyclops, a thunderous roar erupted, and the Cyclops’ shield gauge rapidly depleted.

“Unbelievable…”

“Is this even a plausible situation…?”

The place was not crowded with people. Access was strictly controlled for civilians and journalists, and even a mild EMP blast was set off. (Although people would argue that even a mild EMP blast could be dangerous when used near a nuclear power plant, that was not the case here. The Fukushima nuclear plant already had EMP protection grounding systems in place, and it was not threatened by EMP blasts of this magnitude. It was akin to saying that a lighter’s flame couldn’t melt steel.)

Nevertheless, there were clearly people in this place. The top-ranking slayers of Hedeyas’s Union, who guided Hyun-seok, were left astounded.

“This is absurd. A recovery field?”

“A combat slayer who has mastered the recovery field…?”

“Wait, he’s deploying a recovery field in the combat zone? What on earth is his identity?”

This time, the Platinum Slayer unfolded a recovery field. It was unclear whether it was due to the high defense of the Platinum Slayer or his exceptional endurance, but one thing was certain—his endurance was vastly different from that of regular slayers.

The current known attack power of Cyclops is estimated to be around 20,000 to 30,000. This calculation is based on the fact that six vanguard teams were able to withstand the attack during the previous slaying in Korea. Naturally, this estimate is incorrect. In fact, it is significantly off the mark. The combat slayer’s defense power was roughly assumed to be around 4,000. Meanwhile, Hyun-seok’s health points exceeded 100,000, and his defense power exceeded 50,000. Nevertheless, despite only losing about one-third of his health, it meant that Cyclops’ attack power still exceeded 80,000, even with the minimum estimate.

However, the slayers, who were unaware of this situation, couldn’t close their gaping mouths.

“At least the defense power exceeds 20,000…”

“What kind of strength and stamina do you need to achieve that level of defense power?”

“How can he simultaneously use recovery fields and battlefields with that ability?”

Saying someone has high strength and stamina implies their Health and Power (H/P) are extraordinarily high, enough to face Cyclops single-handedly.

Hyun-seok start healing recovery. The amount of H/P restored in one go was about 10,000. For ordinary slayers, that would be enough to fully restore their H/P and still have some left over. However, in Hyun-seok’s case, it only filled about one-tenth. Nevertheless, even that amount was significantly substantial. This was because, in the eyes of others, Hyun-seok was seen as a combat slayer, not a recovery slayer.

Moreover, healing was not a skill of such high caliber. It was not like Ratio Heal or Superior Heal, which had long delays, allowing it to be used continuously if there was enough mana or power. Hyun-seok continued to maintain his offense and defense while using healing.

Hyun-seok unfolded the Battlefield and engaged in battle with Cyclops while simultaneously setting up the recovery field to replenish his own H/P.

Time passed.

In the end, Hyun-seok managed to defeat the Cyclops. It was an incredible feat, one that seemed impossible. In reality, Hyun-seok was able to receive points and rewards for the “impossible achievement.”

It caused a sensation not only in Korea but throughout the world.

– The Platinum Slayer capable of soloing Cyclops Slayers. Who on earth is he?

– A versatile Slayer who excels not only in combat fields but also in recovery fields and healing. Just how powerful is he?

– Handling both battle and recovery, even taking on supporting roles. How is it possible?

– Is his success truly due to soloing, or is there something else at play?

The news was so shocking that people couldn’t believe it. However, the Japanese Union, Hedeyas, stepped forward to authenticate the soloing.

– Authentication by the Japanese Union. A salute to the Platinum Slayer who faced the Cyclops solo!

– The Platinum Slayer of Korea. He truly is a solo Cyclops Slayer!

What happened left the world in awe, wondering about the true extent of his abilities and the secrets behind his remarkable achievements.
