Episode 530: Escape Plan (3)
Level of the soul.
Each explorer’s expression of the unique sensation that is conveyed when the level rises is different.
So people say that they feel full.
So felt a sense of fulfillnt connected with the lover they loved.
So people say it feels like they woke up after being drunk.
When they have a conversation, they eventually strongly agree on one expression.
Although it is difficult to describe in words.
Shaaaaaaaa
The feeling that sothing outside perates inside of , as if my existence is getting thicker. That feeling was felt so vividly even during the battle.
“Behel—laaaaaaaaaa!!”
I reached level 8.
It was a much faster ti than I had expected.
Honestly, I thought it would take another year before I ca down to the first basent floor.
‘Is this how I can eat two more essences?’
Even I think it’s an abnormal growth rate.
According to the statistics compiled by the guild, the average ti it takes to go from level 7 to level 8 is about 6 years.
Even this is a statistic obtained only for those who reached level 8 by breaking through the barrier, and those who retired from explorers at level 7 are not included—.
Kwajik-!
Stop thinking and swing the hamr.
‘Think first, later.’
Leaving behind the disappearing Orc warrior, he quickly scanned the surroundings to check the battle situation.
“Huh… Heo-eok….”
It’s only 30 minutes since the rainy season started.
It is clear from the faces of the explorers and monster warriors who wield their weapons diligently under the barrier spread above them like an umbrella.
However, even in such a situation.
“essence…! Essence is out!”
“Oh…! Whose was it? Whoever saw it! Has anyone seen it?”
“… I-I saw it! It belongs to Vaughn Drake!”
“It’s a 4th grade! What are you doing! Hurry up and take care of it!”
When the essence runs out, the wizard runs and inserts the test tube, and while the essence is collected, explorers and warriors desperately escort the wizard.
“hey! What are you doing now! It’s not the ti to take magic stones!”
“ah… ah! I’m just afraid I’ll get tripped… OK!”
A bizarre sight, like an explorer taking care of a magic stone.
well, but what to do If you pick up magic stones here, the number of things to do increases several tis.
In the first place, magic stones don’t disappear like essence, but stop once the rainy season is over.
Aaaaaaaaaagh-!
Then, sothing huge fell on top of the barrier.
The impact was so great that the ground shook with just the impact even though it was received from the air.
[Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!]
I did sothing and looked up, and my eyes t the giant looking down at from the top of the cracked barrier.
“Heipramagent…!”
Yes, it fell from the sky again this ti.
I haven’t seen you for a while today.
Crisp-
“Baron! The barrier’s damage is over 70%!”
Thanks to him falling from right above, we barely had ti to survive during the rainy season.
Thanks to this huge umbrella, the battle was possible even when monsters were falling from the sky.
“I… I, Baron! I’m satisfied at this point, and first I’ll go down to the village and do so maintenance—”
“Everyone stay seated!”
“Where is the Baron going!”
“First of all, we’ll take that guy out of the barrier.”
After saying that, I stepped out of the umbrella.
cooong! Quaang! Poo-!
Head, Back, Shoulders, Waist….
When I go outside, the monsters pouring down from the sky collide with my body in the [Giant] state, delivering the shock of the fall.
It was a pretty strange experience.
Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
I just bumped into my body, but the monsters died instantly and disappeared.
Would every battle be like this if you had a polar reflection setting?
Aside from having such silly thoughts, I moved as carefully as possible.
It would be a big deal if he stepped on even the essence.
Unless you are a saint or a saint, essence removal is only possible in the temple.
‘Zero.’
Soon after, I quickly jumped up and stood on top of the translucent barrier, and the explorers looked up at from below and began to hum.
“…The baron has ascended to the top of the barrier!”
“how… What are you trying to do?”
“We can’t even help in this state….”
Hey, you’ll know when you see it.
[Whoa…?]
Soon, I grabbed the hair of the Hipramagent with both hands.
and….
“The baron brings down the giant!!”
“That… Does that make sense?”
“I feel it all over again…. I don’t want to be a person.”
Using the fact that the barrier has a slope like a roof, I pull him down with all my might.
[Ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh!!]
The guy who was embarrassed by the situation he experienced for the first ti started to struggle, but in the end, it worked positively for too.
Quaang-!
The one who tried to raise that big body on top of the barrier slipped and tumbled down.
Crisp-!
The barrier was further damaged in the process, but this was an unavoidable problem.
[Ooh, uh uh uh uh…!!]
Soon after, the guy who was lying on the ground on top of the barrier howled with a sense of injustice.
Oh, it’s not like a guy who farts gets angry.
‘Where should I do business?’
I didn’t even blink an eye as I received his roar head-on.
No, rather, they responded with loud shouts.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!”
However, did this act serve as an opportunity to let him know that I am a formidable enemy?
“…Guy, the giant steps back!”
“The giant was pushed by the baron’s montum!”
A giant who slowly steps back from his prone position while looking at .
I felt that I was looking at my liver, so I quickly picked up my hamr and hit the bridge of my nose with the hamr.
Poo-!
It didn’t seem like it did much damage.
However, for the entity called Hipramagent, this was enough.
[right… Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!]
A giant who imdiately turns around and starts running.
“Gee, the giant runs away!”
yes, go
This coward-.
Flash-!
uh?
The mont I looked back at the sudden flash.
Woo woo woo woo woo woo-!
A sword shining white shoots out in a straight line like a spear thrown.
and….
hooked
Before long, the sword lodged itself in the giant’s neck.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
just exploded
「You have defeated Hipramagent.」
The body of a giant who lost his head and collapsed before the distortion magic was applied.
“Dead… Say?”
He’s in a room…?
“….”
“….”
All the explorers, including , gulped and looked at one place.
To be exact, the starting point where that sword was first thrown.
“Why are you looking at like that? Weren’t you trying to catch ?”
There was a village chief there.
With the sa expressionless face as ever.
***
A village of monsters calling themselves humans.
And the chief of the village, the dragon knight Cornelius Brungrid.
In fact, the reason I brought him to this burning event was because I wanted to at least indirectly confirm his power.
but….
‘What is this man….’
To say that the skills he showed in front of us for the first ti was shocking is not enough.
To catch sothing that even Erwen couldn’t in one shot?
‘I knew that there must be so hidden number, but….’
I never thought it would be such a monster.
For so reason, chills run down my spine.
“What are you doing? Didn’t I say you have to be strong to escape? Are you going back here?”
“… No way.”
It wasn’t a good ti to think about the might of Hana Village, so I focused on dealing with monsters for now.
and how long has it been
“Baron! I can’t stand it any longer!”
“… Let’s go down to the village.”
After holding on until we reached the barrier just before it disappeared, we went down to the village again.
and….
“Everyone take a break!”
First of all, we had a break at the entrance and started with maintenance.
The mage recovers MP while ditating while lying on the floor.
The priest and the healer went around and healed the injured, and Versil started to figure out the number of people.
“Any casualties?”
“There are twelve wounded in total. There are three light injuries and nine serious injuries.”
“Are there any fatalities?”
“So of the village warriors seem to be dead, but…. None of us.”
“I’m glad.”
When the conversation continued to that point, the village chief appeared behind without any sign of presence.
“It’s over.”
Wow, what a surprise.
“all… Are you done?”
“It ans that the entrance to the village has been closed. Now I can’t go outside until the rainy season is over.”
Oh, that’s what you said.
“Is it impossible to open and close?”
“Impossible.”
It was disappointing in many ways.
If that were the case, from now on, a small number of elites would have been able to go outside and co in and pick up essences without owners.
‘I said that leaving the entrance open and catching monsters under the village is not allowed. There is a high possibility that the ‘door’ will be permanently damaged….’
Unfortunately, the burning event ended like this, but I hurriedly hid my lingering feelings.
Now, there were more urgent questions than that.
“Chief, what was that earlier?”
“that?”
“The shining sword. I hadn’t heard of such a thing.”
“I see.”
“That’s right, it’s not—”
I was about to say sothing, but the village chief cut off and opened his mouth.
“But is there any reason I should tell you first?”
“uh….”
surely… Having said that, I have nothing to say.
I was so embarrassed that I was parenting for a while, and the village chief looked at intently and said,
“As you said, there was a deal between you and . We were to help you, and you were to find a way out of here.”
“…however?”
“You focus on your work. Don’t be curious about difficult places.”
Let each of us do our part….
It’s not wrong, but why does it sound so cheap?
“Many warriors died and were injured because of this. I will go take care of them now.”
“Oh, yes.”
“Co back later when the ti is right. Let’s talk so more then.”
Afterward, the village chief took the warriors and entered the village first, and soon we headed to the shelter prepared in the village.
And imdiately began to settle the loot.
“This is a list of essences obtained this ti.”
Let’s see….
“Two ranks 3, seven ranks 4, and one rank 5….”
Even the word “crazy” is insufficient inco.
After the rainy season started, I was outside for less than two hours. Even this is not the only thing gained from this battle.
“Oh, and Mr. Tersia and Mr. Lockrove’s spirit level has risen in this battle.”
Even so, it was very aningful that Erwen’s level went up one more level to 8.
It ans that by eating the Essence of Chaos, there is an empty seat in the place of the full Essence.
“It is the sa for that the level of the soul has risen.”
As soon as I revealed that my level had risen, the surroundings beca noisy.
“what? Bjorn! Is that for real!”
“There are three slopes at once. Well, shall we have a banquet tonight?”
“What is a banquet….”
Originally, when a colleague leveled up, it was a national rule to finish with one ‘chch’.
“Ugh… I thought I barely caught up, but am I falling behind again by myself!”
Einar clenched his fists with an angry expression.
That’s right, he’s still level 7.
Of course, I don’t think there will be much experience left until level up.
Maybe he will do the next level up.
“congratulations… Bjorn.”
Then Misha ca over and congratulated .
Unlike Einar, there was no impatience.
Well, he’s already level 8.
It’s a natural result since Lee Baek-ho has bullied for over two years.
Oh, by the way, Alia’s level is a full 8.
The first ti I t him on the 2nd floor was right after reaching level 8, so I wonder if he can take level 9 by the ti he gets out of here…
“Is this why everyone hangs themselves in such a new area? The growth rate of the clan is unbelievable….”
If Einar reaches level 8, there will be only five mbers in a 7-mber clan.
If he filled all the empty spaces with only the essence, he would be much stronger than he is now.
“Anyway, then I’m going to start distributing it….”
After the harvest was over, Versil led the settlent. Since there is nothing to pick up as a priority, first of all, the Armin Exploration Team, which has a 30% stake in the exploration inco.
“We want to receive the Essence of Lakrel, Malacca, and the Essence of the Pandemonium Chaser.”
They paid fairly one level 3 essence and two level 4 essences, and then the Hetz Clan.
Well, actually, these guys are in the position of unpaid slaves….
“Choose yours too. Do you want anything?”
“yes? Will we be able to… .”
“Aren’t they comrades who fought together? And when you beco stronger here, it becos easier for us too. So don’t think of it as money, just choose the essence you need.”
We need to take care of this level of welfare so that there will be no problems later.
“then… We’ll take these three integers.”
Soon after, Clan Hetz consulted with the mbers and chose two 4th grade and one 5th-grade.
Is it your last conscience for not choosing level 3?
‘I’ll have to keep this for now.’
After the settlent was over, we were given free ti.
The explorers who were exhausted from the previous battles scattered and rested, and those who obtained the new essence left to test it with shining eyes even in the midst of exhaustion.
“It seems like it’s been a while since we’ve been alone.”
“Iknow, right.”
“Yandel, when will the village chief visit you?”
“For now, rest today and tomorrow.”
“is it….”
“By the way, the Silver Lion Clan didn’t appear until the very end.”
“It is most likely dead. They were greedy compared to their skills.”
After that, we all ate together and talked and acted freely.
“Let’s look around for a while.”
“Can I help you?”
“That’s fine.”
Alia scouts with Erwen.
“I… Can I go out too? I’m not too tired….”
Einar goes out saying he is coming to et a monster friend who works at the forge.
“Bjorn… I’ll take a break. See you later….”
“ too… After all that, I am tired.”
Misha and Auyen entered the room and went to sleep.
Then, before I knew it, only Versil and I were left in the living room.
“What are you going to do?”
“I’m going to ditate so more. I used too much magic this ti, so my head hurts a bit.”
“Right.”
“How about Mr. Yandel?”
“I’m thinking of reading a book or sothing.”
After that, I went into the room and opened the book with the magic lamp on.
For so reason, I didn’t pay any attention to the book’s contents.
‘Cornelius Brungrid.’
Just how strong is this guy?
Looking at it, it seems that there is a possibility that he possesses all the essences he had in his human days.
Can we win if we all play together?
No, in the first place.
‘If he tries to kill us….’
Will I be able to protect my colleagues then?
After thinking about this and that, I fell face down on my desk and fell asleep.
“Yandel, wake up.”
“… Yes?”
Alia, who had returned before I knew it, was shaking my shoulder when I woke up.
At first, I wanted to grow up in bed and nag like usual, but….
‘Those eyes are the expression you make when sothing happens.’
“… What’s going on?”
When I hurriedly ca to my senses, Alia placed an iron dagger on the desk.
“What is this?”
“It’s a weapon found at the smithy in this town.”
“uh… however?”
As I tilted my head, Alia gave a good look.
So, the car carefully observed the dagger.
“….”
Goosebumps sprouted up the spine.
“This… You found it in the forge?”
The silver lion clan’s pattern was embedded in the dagger.
