Episode 419 Eyes of the Storm (5)
Caria Dea, the glacier wizard.
The object na is Elder Lich, and it belongs to the 3rd class, and it is a high-ranking mutant called Nad.
A special boss that only appears for a certain period of ti, from 10 days to 5 days before the closing date of the 7th floor.
‘That was about 10%.’
This is why I had no choice but to live as an atheist.
The condition for this guy to be summoned is unconditionally luck.
But it appeared at this point with 8 days left…
‘Should I say ‘why is it today when there’s tomorrow’ or should I say thank you for coming out even three days late…
‘ also the sa
Both positive and negative views are possible.
‘…… is Nimiral.’
No matter how you look at it, it’s a negative situation.
Of course, the worst was avoided.
Isn’t it just a day left until we get out of the glacier’s eyes?
There is no encounter with the boss monster.
It’s because he has the property of slowly coming up after appearing at the bottom.
But the problem is…….
“What are you all doing! Wake up and stop these guys!”
“……Be careful! Unlike normal skeletons, they are strong!”
It was a large army of skeletons that started climbing from the cliff after this guy was summoned.
Even if the monster ca up from below rather than from the front, the trailing side would relatively easily pass through the place we swept through.
‘The distance will gradually narrow.’
I must have woken up from sleep, but my head is blank.
Why the fuck is this shit happening right now?
There’s no Hans among us?
Could it be that there is a Hans I haven’t noticed? Not us, but on the side of the chase over there?
It was when the accident led to that.
Jab-!
I slapped my cheeks with both hands.
It’s dangerous if you hit it too hard, so it’s just enough to bring you to your senses.
‘Let’s not scold Lee Han-soo.’
It is a kind of avoidance ntality.
Finding Hans in tis of misfortune is.
‘It just happened that way.’
How was it actually in Larcas Maze?
When you accidentally encounter a dragon slayer and have to go through hardships and even lose a precious colleague.
Was Hans there then?
In the crystal cave on the 1st floor where the Lord of the Abyss appeared?
There was a miracle that there was not a single Hans among the nearly 1,000 people, but where did things go smoothly?
Looking back, it was.
Hans wasn’t there when he was going through the real shit.
As if heaven would never give a hole to bla.
‘……Then, was Hans actually a lucky person?’
I suddenly thought of that, but ok.
That doesn’t seem to be the case again.
Still, thanks to the futile thoughts, my mind beca clearer.
food.
What do you an Hans or whatever?
I just do my thing and that’s it.
So in that sense…….
“Yandel! The crew are at a loss. Please give so instructions!”
I opened my eyes as I heard Kaislan’s voice approaching .
“Prepare a breakthrough formation.”
“Are you thinking of breaking through?”
“Because there’s no point in stopping it.”
After giving instructions to Kaislan, I headed to the forefront of the formation.
“Daddy, don’t push yourself too hard.”
“What? Are you not stopping this ti?”
“But… you have the sa eyes as in the crystal cave back then…”
Well, I don’t know because I never looked in the mirror at that ti.
I wish the results were similar to then.
「The character has cast [Giant].」
Now, after turning on the basic battle mode, raise the shield and hamr. But is it because you threw away the armor and put a fur coat on your bare body?
‘Hey, there are no real savages.’
It’s called Barbarian Barbarian Mode.
“Yandel are all ready!”
Just in ti, news ca that the formation had been completed, and I hesitated as I saw the skeleton blocking my way.
‘Ah, I don’t really have to be patient anymore, do I?’
OK, but this one is positive.
Then let’s go.
“Behel—laaaaaaaa!!!!”
I believe that the protection of the ancestors will be with .
***
Coo-ung! coo-!
It runs with heavy footsteps.
Covering the entire upper body with a shield as if doing a shield charge.
Kwaaaang-!
It puts its weight on the shield with its shoulders and pushes away the bone pups.
Oh, by the way, I’m the only one on the front line.
This is because the remaining avant-gardes, including lee, were sent backward to defend the flanks and rear.
“Push it away!”
The crews caught up from behind and followed while dealing with the skeletons climbing from the cliff next to them.
“Oops!”
“It’s off!”
“Ahhhhh…!”
Amidst the din of desperate battles, moans, not spirits, could be heard intermittently.
That’s unavoidable.
Because all the vanguards had abandoned their armor.
Swoop-!
The ribs stabbed by the skeleton slashed through soone’s skin.
「Leard Ashed cast [Regeneration Block], a 5th grade curse spell.」
Worried about the reverse effect of the natural regenerative power, the wizards were constantly casting curse magic on their allies, but they were peeing on their feet.
It just shortened the ti it took for the wound to get worse.
Because injuries don’t heal.
Slow-!
Torn wounds open wider with every vigorous movent, and wounds that do not heal lead to endless bleeding.
In the anti, the wound festers and rots.
This is because no matter how much curse magic is used, the natural regeneration cannot be reduced to 0. Usually, those who eat regenerative essence are avant-gardes, but don’t they have any exorcism?
‘I never thought throwing away the damn equipnt would co back like this.’
one hour two hours three hours.
As the ti spent passing through the monsters increased, the injured within the expedition continued to appear.
A vicious cycle where even the tiniest cut can hold back your ankle and lead to more injuries.
Of course, if I had used Mana Shield, I wouldn’t have been hurt like this.
But…
‘It’s not like peeing on frozen feet, it’s like drinking sea water because you’re thirsty.’
That’s also the case, how can you cast all the mana shields on a group of people like this?
In 3 hours, the mana will be gone—
Quaaaaang-!
Nimiral really can’t take my eyes off it.
The situation in the back was also serious, but the situation was not particularly better for .
“Behel—laaaaaa!”
Aren’t they pushing the monsters with all their might and breaking through the road?
The energy consumption from there was extre.
No, energy wasn’t the problem in the first place. If it weren’t for [Cells of the Beginning] and [Soul Dive], MP would have run out and [Giantness] would have been cancelled.
‘Ah, pigari.’
Not only that, but I also have injuries piling up on my body.
For these rubbish mobs, my physical resistance is practically immune to damage, but…
Skeletons don’t just attack physically.
If you get hit in front of the nose by the Bone Explosion, which is applied as cold damage, no matter how hard you get, you will have no choice but to shed a drop of blood.
“Yandel! He’s in front of again!”
A gigantic skeleton that showed up how long it had been since they had killed one.
It’s four heads taller than in the [Giant] state, so it wouldn’t be too much to classify it as a large, but this guy belongs to the dium.
There is a separate large skeleton.
coo-! coo-!
A super-large skeleton that climbs a cliff with red eyes glowing in the dark.
“Under the rice! He’s coming up again!”
“God and Ahn!!”
This ti, the priests cast divine spells in succession to drop him before he reached the top.
[Goooooooooooooooo-!!!!]
A super-large skeleton that escaped while spitting out ferocious cries that echoed everywhere.
Leave it like that, and in a few minutes it’ll climb up to see if there’s anything else to pick up.
It’s obvious if you don’t look.
Kwajik-!
First of all, I even used [Swing] to smash the skull of the dium-sized skeleton that was blocking my way.
There is no ti to catch one’s breath.
Again, use your shield to push away the bone pups and clear your way.
“Khehehehe.”
I keep laughing as I repeat the process.
Not because I’m happy, but because I’m going to lose my mind if I don’t laugh.
Kwak-!
muscles scream
Kwajik-!
My head is blank.
“Aaaaaaaaa!”
In such a state, the body repeats what it has done honestly.
Keep as many positive thoughts in your head as possible.
‘But what’s fortunate is that they don’t have any signs of catching up with us yet.’
Almost 4 hours after the monster wave started.
Inferring the distance through detection magic has gone over the water because of the monsters, but so far there has been no pursuit party catching up with us.
It seems that they are moving while sacrificing themselves.
Well, don’t you think those bastards don’t want to get hurt too?
‘I’m probably moving as defensively as possible.’
On the other hand, we are moving forward, burning our bodies like briquettes on the verge of turning to ashes.
Even if I get hurt more, the expedition team goes first.
I’m going through the road with that mindset, but if I get caught, it’s unfair.
Beetle-!
At that ti, I lost strength in my legs without realizing it, and I managed to balance.
‘…Did I shed too much blood?’
Well, it seems.
Now my body is like a water bag that has been hacked to pieces.
Wounds that would normally harden within seconds set up all over the body and bleed.
Therefore…
‘I think it will be dangerous at this rate…’
I made my decision.
Because that’s what survival is all about.
choosing the lesser evil instead of the worst.
“Heal my wounds with marone fire.”
“…what what?”
“Anyway, I have to stop the bleeding now.”
“How bizarre is that to stop bleeding… No, how can you say such a thing without changing your face in the first place!”
Upon hearing my request, the wizard was startled.
Aside from the pain, if the burned area rots, it may beco irreversible?
It was nothing out of the ordinary.
Anyway, the wound is already rotting away
…….
The priority is to arrive at the destination sohow.
“If I’m not careful, there may be a situation that I can’t solve even with my holy power. It’s possible that there will be permanent damage to my body…” Marone, who made the decision that I couldn’t
break my stubbornness, with an impunity line. .
Sounds like a doctor telling you not to drink or smoke for three days.
Like a barbarian, he passed it through one ear.
“But isn’t it better than dying here?”
“I’ll do it. I’ll do it. But I don’t know. Why did you go so far…!”
She clenched her fists as if she didn’t understand.
He’s a wizard, but he has such a bad mory?
Why can’t he understand?
” .”
“…….”
“I will do the hardest work, so just follow .”
“Ah…….”
Marone opened her mouth in a daze, then closed her mouth as if she had made up her mind and cast fire magic. I pulled it up on top of my hand
and…
“Kuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
I thought of the positives as much as possible.
*** It’s not cold anymore.
***
An hour Two hours and three hours…….
As the grueling journey continued, I was able to see another side of the mbers with my own two eyes.
I thought they were just sunfish, but
now I see that they are baby birds. A bit
tough .
Can you heal the wound?”
“I’m asking with ice magic. I thought it would hurt a little less.”
When I saw my action of stopping the bleeding without a potion and said that I was crazy, the avant-garde soon followed my actions. Among
them, there were even worse than .
“This arm Can you just take it off?”
“…Yes?”
“I’m not stupid either. If it’s rotten to this extent, wouldn’t it be possible to fix it with divine power anyway? I haven’t felt it since before.”
“Hey… Ah, no matter how true it is, think again…” ”
Haha, don’t make that face. Where in the world is there a one-ard person without a story? I’ve seen a lot of people without one arm, and with this story, I’m going to be able to do business with one arm.” A
profit and loss calculation thod that even the barbarian I heard next to was staggering.
However, it must be because such a calculation thod was used.
Finally, we can reach the top of the glacier’s eye. What happened was
“Field effect – glacier eyes are lifted.”
The mont I’ve been longing for and hoping for all this ti.
Plump-!
The warriors who crossed the last hill collapsed all at once in a state on the verge of exhaustion. It
was a terrible look that couldn’t be explained with words , but A smile was thicker than
ever before on his lips
.
! Wizards! Quickly break the curse magic! I have to start with treatnt right away!”
The priests, who had to helplessly watch their desperate struggle while coming this far, raised their sacred power as much as they could, looking as if they would collapse at any mont. “…It was hard
. Not really.”
“Your arm… sounds like it’s going to be tough. I’m sorry.”
The priest made a guilty expression toward the avant-gardes.
“Haha, is that the case too? Don’t mind.”
“I know it’s difficult, but let’s ask for one thing.”
The avant-gardes smiled broadly and asked the priest for one thing.
“If it’s good just once, would you sincerely pray?”
“Prayer… you an? ”
“Yes, for those who died without making it this far.”
“…Of course.”
The priests knelt down and put their hands together reverently .
Dwarves, beastn, fairies, and I, who don’t believe in human gods, were the sa.
Like them, even if I don’t cross my heart.
“…….”
“…….”
Close your eyes and ditate sincerely. I pray with
ancestors, guardian spirits, or the world tree.
Because it
‘s good for anyone
to hear your voice…
**
The current number of surviving mbers of the expedition is 22.
Excluding summoner Millburn Naria, two more people died while drilling through the glacier.
It was a harsh environnt that could not be overco with only the determination to lose weight and cut off an arm.
‘Matt Hybrid.’
One was a paladin who belonged to Team 4.
‘Passable Eric Coulson.’
The other was a knight belonging to Team 5.
Kaislan and his friend who had been in the sa unit for over 10 years and was a
subordinate
? Did you do your duty as a soldier? It won’t be too unfair for him either.”
“…It’s not unfair? How could that be?”
“At least you weren’t there. So, didn’t you take a step to live to the end? That… is by no ans a aningless death.”
“…”
“He died following … and you, not the royal family that abandoned us.” ”
Is that so… ”
“I’m fine, so you do what you need to do.”
After a brief prayer,
we returned to our work.
The priests continue to heal the warriors.
The wizards draw a magic circle on the floor.
And I… …..
“Wait a minute! You can’t move yet!”
“This is fine, so treat the others first.”
“What are you saying! You’re the most serious right now!”
If you were really serious, you wouldn’t have been able to move.
I checked the state of the expeditionary force while listening to the priest’s cry in one ear. Until now, I hadn’t had ti to pay attention to my back as I was busy clearing the road.
” Larva.”
I looked around and headed to the place where Aqlava was.
“How much food do you have left?”
”
No more.
” You were the one who forced them to eat as they should, right?”
Giving them a face al.
“It ans everyone did a good job.”
I changed the subject.
“Where do you think they are now?”
“Well… .I’m curious about that too. Seeing how stubbornly they followed, I didn’t think they would give up easily.”
“Is that so…”
“I’ll keep an eye on the glacier. So rest. If you fall, this expedition is also over …”
“Yes ……”
After talking with Aakuraba, he was treated by the priest and lay down near the entrance to the eye of the glacier.
“You’ve worked hard… Mister.”
A peace that makes the hellish ti just a little while ago feel like a lie.
Even the cold snow field that touched my back feels cozy.
However, as always, the sweet ti passed in an instant.
“Yandel! They’re them!”
At the sa ti as Aqurava shouted, all the resting mbers got up and stood in formation.
Pyuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Fuuuuuu!
A flare shot down the glacier’s eye.
The space under the dark cliff suddenly brightened and twelve pursuers climbed the hill. Contrary to my thoughts ,
they appeared to be fine.
They were moving while fighting the skeletons, maintaining their formation without haste.
There were no particularly noticeable injuries.
They seed to have eaten well and did not look thin. Unlike us, who arrived here by forcefully moving our rotten legs, it
‘s
not sothing we can’t understand
.
I gritted my teeth and looked down.
The other side was also looking up at us.
With a questioning look in my eyes,
“…?” It was
obvious what he was thinking.
I blocked it, but it must have looked strange because he wasn’t wearing armor.
Phish.
The Dragon Slayer, who was part of the pursuit team, seed to be chatting with his colleagues and looked at with his lips slightly raised. Are you laughing at sothing? If so, it’s a little
funny
. ‘
Are they still unaware of their situation?’
In the first place, why did I try to run away while throwing away my equipnt?
It was a decision I made after thoroughly looking at the future.
Here, the field value is bigger than the equipnt value.
“The character has entered a special area.”
“Field effect – glacial eye It will be granted.」
Okay
,
so the field effect
starts right here
