Episode 554: Deja Vu (3)
“…Tell in detail. What happened?”
We checked the details before making a final decision.
“Oh, is that it? It disappeared on the day of departure, so the commander went to find it himself. But when I finally found it, I heard that I couldn’t go, making excuses like I had a stomachache, right?”
“…”
“I guess he just cried and scread, and eventually called the wizard to confirm it.”
“check…?”
“I heard you used magic to check what you heard in the cabinet? There was no problem. And based on this, when they were accused of attempting desertion, they changed their attitude and joined, noticing that there was nothing they could do about it…”
“… did you?”
“Perhaps because the rumors were circulating, the impression was not good even within the exploration force. Seeing that, priests from the sa church don’t treat people like humans, do they?”
“Right….”
Ha, I just heard
Seeing that he did not want to join the exploration force to such an extent, it must have been because his ‘sixth sense’ was activated.
pounding-!
Surely this ti, I won’t have to go through such hardships as I did in Ice Rock, right?
***
The four ships that departed from Rock Island anchored at Library Island, and after simply adjusting their formation, they went down the stairs.
For reference, the formation was a formation with 4 groups in the lead… so 38 of us stood at the front.
Maybe because of that, I felt bad for so reason, but I shook my head and shook my head.
‘…The reason why they put us at the front must be because we were the vanguard.’
Yep, it’s not like a throwaway card.
I would have done that even if I was the commander.
Ah, but why is your back so unreliable?
‘…The damn royal family.’
Before Berzac, and Ice Rock.
I’ve already been beaten in the back of the head by the royal family twice already, and I can’t believe these bastards at all—.
“You have arrived.”
As I descended the stairs, more wary of the back than the front, a vast underground library appeared before I knew it.
The books were already neatly organized.
and….
[…Are you here? Earlier than expected… uh…?]
As soon as we arrive, Ham-shik, who ca out to et us, tilts his head when he finds the exploration group following us.
Hey, why is he doing this again?
He waved his hand with the aning of going back quickly and hiding himself, but Ham-sik still looked at him as if he didn’t know why.
thus….
Whoops, whoops.
Point your thumb at the exploration group behind you, and then point at Hamsik with your index finger.
Shuk.
He makes a decapitation gesture with his hand.
That’s because these guys aren’t nice guys like .
Seriously, no kidding, they’re the ones who start dissecting after casting distortion magic on them and killing them.
But did my urgency co through?
[Beep—!!!]
Hamsik, who understood the gesture, freaked out and ran away.
and that mont.
“Baron, what are you doing? I think I heard a terrible scream from sowhere.”
A person arrived from the main unit, which followed at a certain distance from our 4th group in the lead.
Okay, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a ham al.
“It’s nothing.”
“yes?”
“I don’t know what caused it, but when I’m here, I hear that kind of noise from ti to ti.”
“Oh, I see. All right. I will tell you that.”
As a result, even if you secretly et and talk with Hamshik from ti to ti, the exploration team will not think it strange.
Well, there might be soone who wants to investigate the sound, so you have to be careful.
“This is the place Baron Yandel talked about.”
“What do you think?”
“How are you? My personal feelings are aningless. So, without wasting any ti, let’s get started. Currently, we are not simply exploring, we are carrying out a sacred mission given by the royal family.”
Ugh, who wouldn’t be Wang Gabara.
Soon after, Jero gave instructions to the deputy commander, and the deputy commander shouted in a loud voice.
“Listen to all troops! Let’s start with a geographic survey. Each investigation team must thoroughly search the surroundings!”
The topographical survey began like that.
I approached Jero and asked.
“If you say you don’t have ti, you don’t have to do the research again, do you? We have already finished here.”
Maybe Jero doesn’t trust , just as I don’t trust the royal family.
That was the first thing I thought of, but…
“Huh, our expeditionary force was created by gathering only the experts in exploration chosen and chosen by the royal family. I’m not ignoring Baron Yandel’s knowledge as an explorer…but just watch. I don’t know if I’ll find sothing new.”
Looking at the nuances of what he said, I felt that he was really just ignoring us.
‘Exploration experts are a piece of shit.’
Most of the magicians are from the military, and it’s a battle-hardened group full of knights and priests.
“Do it yourself. Instead, we are here.”
“Yes. There’s no way I can find sothing now that I couldn’t find before anyway.”
…do you really want to hit one?
Seriously, such a thought crossed his mind, but he endured it with superhuman patience.
And how much ti has passed
“…nothing new has been confird.”
“The sa goes for this one.”
In the end, the mbers of the exploration team returned without any profit, and only then did the attack on the library begin.
“First of all, it would be best to proceed as the baron said. Unlike the baron, we have the ability to fully attack the last bookshelf.”
He was a guy who seed unreliable until the end, but as the attack progressed, he showed himself like an expert.
“It’s like this.”
The guy who used the summoning book several tis quickly rebuilt the formation as if he knew roughly, and efficiently distributed the number of 200 people.
Dozens of people clung to the bookshelf to find the book, and twice as many people waited in front of the stone gate to hunt monsters coming out of the stone gate.
but….
“This is going to take a long ti.”
Jero must have thought that this was too slow, so he brought out the ultimate secret technique.
“Evost, speed up.”
All discoveries in this world appear out of necessity.
“yes? Haona can only summon one volu at a ti, so speeding up here is…”
“So, don’t you tell to find a way?”
“…”
For a while, the deputy commander ca up with a creative thod that even I hadn’t thought of.
“I think that if we can reduce the ti the door opens and closes once, we can speed it up even more.”
“So what is the conclusion?”
“How about breaking down the door?”
“…!!!”
A counterasure that made even the barbarian who was listening to it goosebumps. Hearing the plan, Jero nodded his head with a satisfied expression.
“It’s a thod worth trying. Execute now.”
As soon as permission was given, the magic corps within the exploration army gathered in one place.
And dozens of people perford joint magic.
“Mighty Esta Fioruev de Teyla!”
The magic completed like that was still a magic spell that had never been seen in practice.
That’s where I’m going to see the 1st class attack magic.
「Gahyunn Basilus cast the 1st grade attack magic [Sphere of Gaebyeok].」
At the sa ti that the magic is completed, the magic circle glows, and I am short of breath. A density that even barbarian warriors who are insensitive to magical power can feel thick.
It was impossible to see with the naked eye.
———————!
A flash of light like an instant.
When I opened my eyes again, vaguely feeling the causal effect of being shot and bumping into sothing.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The wind, hot as if it were about to burn, blows fiercely and brushes your cheeks.
However, he did not have the energy to focus on that sensation.
“…Fortunately, it worked.”
The huge stone gate, which must have been 20m high, was shattered without leaving even fragnts, exposing only endless darkness.
‘Is this… working…?’
It was like seeing a new realm.
***
You succeeded in breaking the stone gate.
And the plan to continue the summoning quickly through that thod was also the sa.
“Since the door is gone, it becos a summoning of the catching tribe. Good job. Evost.”
“I just followed the royal family’s order, it’s not sothing to be praised for. Commander.”
After eliminating the delay caused by summoning monsters in an ignorant way, the two continued their conversation so naturally.
Eventually I had no choice but to leave.
“Wait, look over there! It is already being restored from the tip.”
This was the nature of the labyrinth.
Including the crystal cave on the first floor, all parts of the labyrinth except for special points are naturally restored.
To put it simply, the wizards of the expeditionary force have now made a first-class effort…
“By the way, are there any problems?”
Jero made an expression that did not understand my words, so I explained it well, unbecoming a barbarian.
But this was all in vain.
“Even if you say that, I don’t know what the problem is. As much as it has been restored, isn’t it a problem to keep destroying it?”
“uh…?”
“Looking at the speed at which it is restored, it seems that there is no need to use level 1 attack magic like this ti. There are a lot of wizards, so I think we can take turns destroying them.”
“…uh.”
“Anyway, aren’t there any monsters that are strong enough to require wizards yet?”
Uh… that’s right.
“Then, have all your questions been answered?”
“okay. It’s all over.”
In the end, I had no choice but to admit it.
‘The only thing lacking… was …!’
Those with power can realize more things, so it becos possible to draw images of a higher realm.
Therefore, I couldn’t co up with a thod like this, and the reason why I made a ridiculous cut was all because I lacked strength.
Imagination is the power that cos from power.
‘Perhaps that’s why the power factor is attached to imagination.’
Indeed, this is the wisdom of the ancients.
They must have mastered that principle thousands of years ago.
“Then we will resu our mission!”
Anyway, whether or not I gained a new realization, Jero did not waste ti like a person who wasted every minute and every second.
Is he a natural attitude as a person who has been entrusted with a royal family mission?
Perhaps because of that sincerity, in reality, the attack speed was on a different level. In the anti, we also said that we had been hunting factory-style, but should I say that we can’t even compare?
“Leave the magic stone alone! I will collect it later.”
The exploration team didn’t even pick up the magic stone, and even if the essence ca out, they didn’t check who it belonged to.
Most of them hunted with long-range artillery fire, so there was no misfortune to acquire unwanted essence, and when close range was needed, knights with full essence filled the field.
and the result.
‘I got to level 4 in one day…’
Strictly speaking, less than 16 hours had passed before level 4 monsters started appearing one by one.
Almost 5 tis faster than when 38 of us did it.
“From tomorrow onwards, we will be able to proceed normally. Tell that to the magic corps as well. There is no need to stop it from being restored anymore.”
“if….”
“I’ll finish here for today, prepare for camp.”
Even taking turns eating like that, the attack that proceeded without a break stopped, and it beca a long-awaited break.
After a hard day’s work, the soldiers of the Expeditionary Force skillfully set up the camp, and in the anti, as ti passed, the familiar faces ca first.
“Haha, are you very busy?”
land Kaislan.
A knight from the military who shared the joys and sorrows of the Ice Rock Expedition.
“No matter how busy you are, you have to make ti for it.”
“It’s such an honor.”
Kai Islan grinned and held out his fist, and I was greeted with a slap.
We passed each other eye to eye, but we didn’t have ti to talk like this.
“Anyway, I didn’t know we’d be able to talk now.”
“I’ve heard that you’ll taste hell if you go under the command of the Earl of St. Red, but I didn’t know it would be like this.”
Now, it seems that notoriety, not notoriety, was spreading among the people from the military.
“So what happened to you? Was there an order from the royal family to join us?”
“exactly. Huhu, it seems like he intends to eat as much as he can before being discharged. Well, I didn’t have any big complaints about having the purpose of saving the baron.”
“discharge? Did you submit an application?”
“The application was submitted a month ago. It will take quite a while to be dealt with, but… I’m expecting it to be done by the end of this expedition.”
“Right….”
“But why is that expression on your face?”
“nothing. I was thinking about what to eat for dinner.”
I looked around, but I didn’t an it.
It was just that the Ice Rock Expedition suddenly ca to mind in that Kaislan, who was on the verge of being discharged, was ‘forced’ to be brought here.
‘If he had sothing else on his mind, he would have made Marone join the expedition… but let’s keep that in mind.’
ah, no Rather than passing it off like that, I decided to always keep the worst case in my head.
“Sir Kaislan! We finally say hello!”
Afterwards, Versil, Erwen, and Alia, who were mbers of the expedition, also ca and had a eting with Kaislan, and another new face appeared.
“sorry. Since the archbishop said it was his first ti camping, I was helping… I was going to co right away, but it was late.”
Goblin Mask, Sven Farab.
As soon as he appeared, Versil ca over and shot a glare at him.
“You are here.”
“Oh, long ti no see…? Miss Gowland…”
“Iknow, right. ‘long ti no see. Sir Farab.”
Well, that’s what we t at the round table a while ago.
From my point of view, knowing all of them, they only look cute.
“Wait, can everyone move over?”
“Yes, of course. For to stay for a long ti, I can see the people of the church—”
“Parav, except for you.”
“…yes?”
After greeting and talking about the current situation, I had ti to talk to Paravu alone after biting people around.
“Um… what’s going on…?”
“You pretended to have an upset stomach to miss the expedition?”
“Did Lord Kaislan even say that?”
“No, I heard it from the other side.”
“…That, you heard from the gold wizard.”
It seems that my forr colleague Raven guessed the answer from the fact that he was on our ship.
However, that part was pretty good.
“Why did you do that? Did you have that ‘strange feeling’ again?”
“I… it’s a little different from that…”
“Different? tell in detail I am the one who trusts your sixth sense.”
“That… I don’t know how to say this…”
Parav, who seed to be worried about the continued request, carefully opened his mouth in a voice of desperation.
“It seems I… have received an oracle…”
what…?
***
A world where God exists.
People here sotis hear the voice of God or receive a revelation. Sotis, to help ‘revelation’, there is a case of lowering a holy object.
Anyway, that’s not the point.
“You said you received an oracle…?”
“Joe, please be quiet! I will listen!”
Trusts are not of the kind that everyone can take.
That’s why in this city, those who are blessed to hear the voice of God are called ‘saints’ and ‘saints’.
But…
‘This bastard is a player.’
Sven Farab is an evil spirit from Earth.
And the triads are as sincere as the royal family when it cos to hunting evil spirits. However, the god who is the top of the head there gives an oracle to the evil spirit?
“…Are you sure? That I… received it.”
“This, for now, it seems like that.”
trouble deepens
What the heck are the writers called gods thinking?
Co to think of it, there was a ti when I was nearly killed by a dragon slayer before and when I barely ca back alive, he lowered the holy relic to help .
“So what is it about? What story did you hear that made you do that?”
“I… that’s…”
After that, I tried to hurry up and check the contents of the trust, but unfortunately, a disturber appeared on the way.
“Sir Parav! The Archbishop is looking for you! Co see !”
“Ah, yes…? Ah yes! All right!”
The guy who didn’t know what to do while staring at quickly answered when I nodded and disappeared to the place where the religious forces were.
‘…I’ll have to hear the details tomorrow.’
It’s a pity that I didn’t hear it right away, but as I promised tomorrow, I filled my hunger with beef jerky and went inside the blanket and closed my eyes.
and how long has it been
‘I can’t sleep.’
I thought I was going to drink so water, so when I stood up for a while, I felt a stinging gaze from sowhere.
Looking around, I saw Hamsik hiding behind a bookshelf in the distance, in addition to the vigilantes on patrol.
“Kuhmm…”
“Baron, where are you going?”
“I can’t sleep. I’m trying to relax for a while, but wouldn’t it be noisy if I did it here?”
“Ah, yes…”
After giving plausible excuses to the soldiers who were on watch, as they approached the bookshelf, Hamsik, who had been hiding, gave a small sound.
[Um… what are those crazy people!!]
“Uh… they’re from the kingdom… don’t worry, they won’t harm you—.”
[Not to cause harm…!!]
Soon after, Hamshik clenched his fists as he looked at the stone gate, which was still not finished being restored. And he spoke to in a very sad voice.
[Not once, why… do I have to go through this twice…!!]
“…”
[Why are all humans like this…!!]
…I had nothing to say.
“I’m a barbarian…?”
except for these words.
