Episode 173
“What are those things? Specters or sothing like ghosts?”
Shirik! Shiriririk!
Ser Kim narrowed her eyes as strange shapes erged one by one from the twisted portal.
Unlike a little while ago, it was a rapidly growing number.
To be precise, it was after Viole’s piercing arrow hit the twisted dinsion door, but considering that even before his arrow struck, it was giving off a strange energy, so it was quite predictable.
Moreover, the fact that it repeatedly drew a parabola in place and gradually increased its speed made the party feel a considerable sense of danger.
It was a characteristic of most AC dungeons that things could beco irreversibly serious in the end, just like clothes getting wet in drizzle.
“As you might have thought, they are not heroic spirits such as evil spirits with grudges or spirit bodies with wills… but they are not that different from heroic spirits in that they move for a certain purpose. It’s not that nice to be close.”
Woo woo woo!
Damian murmured as dozens of water mirrors pointed out by Ser Kim grew up—from all angles, they were not objects, but more like living things.
At first glance, it was not a very good phenonon.
As black figures rise from the puddle of the twisted dinsion, the air of the Shantalia ruins looks like the deep ocean, and the mont they swim through the air in an orderly formation like a group of killifish.
– Kkeureuk… Kkeureuk…!
It was not difficult for Ser Kim and his party to confirm that the group of guys suddenly changed their organization and moved differently, along with a reluctant voice that suddenly resonated in the air.
-Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
“…!”
It was also because the black figures, which had not shown any significant movent until now, shot out in all directions of the circular plaza with a tearing roar as if they were making a promise.
[Notice: The twisted dinsion door is wary of you who set foot in the ruins!]
[Notice: The twisted dinsion door radiates unrefined dinsional energy!]
[Notice: Be careful not to be engulfed by the unrefined dinsional energy Do it!]
“Hee hee!”
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
As the black shapes scattered in all directions around the circular plaza, they swallowed their breath.
At first glance, they were figures with formidable speed.
The nurous waterways intertwined with the Shantalia ruins pass quickly as if they were their own hos, while the dark shapes jump over the andering waterways in an instant, as if they were going up against the river where salmon flows.
However, the reason why they couldn’t accept that it was just hostility toward those who invaded the Shantalia ruins was because another system window popped up in addition to the ssage that popped up in front of them.
[Notice: The twisted dinsion gate is trying to absorb your essence!]
[Notice: Unrefined dinsional energy is chasing you!]
[Remaining distance: 300m… 295m… 289m….]
[Reminder: Run away from the energy of the unrefined dinsion!]
Even if you don’t know, it must have been a very dangerous kind.
“What is this! Why are they chasing us eh eh eh!!”
“I told you that they are no different from heroic spirits.”
Zuriririk!
As an unrefined dinsional energy surged up on top of one of the stone structures in front of us, the party threw themselves at the sa ti.
Damian’s warning was a bonus.
The Shantalia Ruins where they are standing has beco a maze where they have to escape from the twisted dinsional gate’s demon (?) rather than a waterway where they can get a glimpse of the history of the ancient civilization.
Moreover, since the person who had been guiding Phase 1 and Phase 2 had directly admitted that it was dangerous, none of the party mbers would object to that statent.
“That’s right, save it!!”
“You despicable human! Can you run away alone?!”
In other words, they were on a board to play hide and seek.
“Eight!”
Woo woo woo!
While the party was running away from the unrefined dinsional energy, Yuijing’s body was suddenly enveloped in pink magic.
It was the unique mana color of Arcana, which could be said to be her reading technique.
The mont when the deck of cards protruding from her waist follows her aura as if it were flowing along the tailwind, and the vortex increases its speed and oxidizes the cards.
[Arcana]
[Anti Spread Field]
“Haaaaaaa!!”
cooong!
Soon after, Yuijing threw herself like a squirrel and hit the mossy stone structure with her palm, and a pink waterspout suddenly erupted from the stone floor along with the card.
< anti-spread field >.
It was Arcana’s all-in-one barrier that conceals the caster’s appearance and defends against enemy attacks.
“That’s Okay! I’m going to buy so ti with the anti-spread field now, so I’m going to open the twisted dinsion… kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?!”
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooh!
While Yuijing shouted at the group that had gone ahead, an explosion erupted.
It was a bonus that the barriers of the cards that had been swirling pink were falling and ringing.
Considering the characteristics of the anti-spread field, which essentially reduces the power by changing the nature of the boundary, rather than dispersing or blocking external shocks.
It was impossible for a barrier that was so excellent at blocking enemy attacks to cause explosions and cracks like this.
“I must be torn apart! If we do this, we will all be defeated together!”
“I agree!”
Viole shouted as Ser Kim focused on the collapsing anti-spread field and pulled out Yui.
It happened at the sa ti that several daggers sprayed from his arms cut through the air.
A chisel or a dagger that resembles a nail used for polishing stones that are only about 15 cm long and has no nose.
However, the mont the steel dagger was wrapped in hieroglyphs and emitted white light, Ser Kim’s main force, which had been helplessly pushed away by the energy of the unrefined dinsion, exploded in an instant and began to blow a bloody aura in all directions.
“Hoo.”
Byeoksatoejeong (僻邪退鬼釘).
It was a ranger’s unique throwing weapon that temporarily exerts powerful power only on beings that halfway between the world and the other world, such as ghosts and evil spirits.
“Currently, the twisted dinsion gate has consud quite a bit of power due to the monster waves made up of dinsion species and the gimmicks laid in the shadows of the forgotten territories… It doesn’t bother to hide its location, and it transmits unrefined dinsional energy. What it is radiating is that it needs a ans to replenish its exhausted resources. So, that’s the mouth or the proboscis of a mosquito that sucks in nutrients. Just as we reach out and consu food to repair the wounds of a damaged body and use it as an energy source to be active again.”
“Therefore, the mont you touch the energy of dozens of unrefined dinsions… You will be continuously absorbing various resources from the twisted portal along with a 100% reduction in movent speed. Stamina as well as physical strength and magic power. You might be logged out in an instant.”
“It is for this reason that the system ssage warns that the assault on the twisted portal may fail.”
“One interesting thing is that this unrefined dinsional energy boasts a level of concentration that is different from what we saw in Phase 1 and 2… As before, it is impossible to withstand with potions or destroy with tolerable force. thing.”
“So, unless it’s a class that has the power to use the sa dinsional power as a dinsional magician, dealing with it directly is, in fact, no different than hitting a rock with an egg.”
“This is why you must run away as much as possible without being eroded by the unrefined dinsional energy for the next 10 minutes. Here in the ruins of Shantalia.”
bang! bang! bang! bang! bang!
As the energy of the unrefined dinsion exploded simultaneously with a roar, Damian chanted to the party.
The thick mist seen in the second phase of courtesy was rising from the epicenter of the explosion like a smoke bomb.
However, even in the aftermath of the ferocious explosion, the reason why Damian can stand aloof is because he was avoiding the unrefined energy of the dinsion with minimal movent.
Even more so, since the place he is currently standing apart from the others is the ruins of Shantalia, which are filled with different stone structures like a forest of buildings.
It was almost impossible to follow Damian’s movents, who had already tried to change his fighting style from Kiran once.
“Hoy. Yoit. Yoi it.”
-Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
In other words, unlike his rugged appearance, this wolf-headed, muscular man vomited the spirit of avoiding the demonic beasts of the twisted dinsion flooding in from all directions with just one gesture.
“This is a scam! This is a scam!”
As Damian avoided all the unrefined spirits of the other world with a short distance, he hurriedly turned his head and scread.
There was also the light of disbelief that filled his face.
Of course, Damien’s skills that I’ve seen so far must have been exceptional enough that I couldn’t doubt anything about it, but even so, he didn’t allow even a single hit by using the terrain features of the maze-like ruins in the right place?
Among the sa platinum level adventurers, those who quickly figured out the dungeon’s gimmick or boasted ignorant firepower were full of garages, but it could be said that there is a difference between attacking a dungeon well and not getting hit at all.
It was said that it was impossible to have the MAX ability of a regular hexagon in all aspects.
Just as it is difficult for a class with high physical power to be exceptional even in terms of magic power, a class specialized in high mobility and reconnaissance cannot excel in toughness or defense.
However, Damian, who is now standing behind them and watching only the escape of the party from a distance, satisfies all of them, of course.
Even among the phases, the Shantalia Ruins, which boasted the most difficult difficulty, was showing even a bit of composure as if it were an old face.
“Oh, did I tell you? It is said that the twisted dinsion summons one guardian at a ti to protect it.”
“…?!”
Soon after, Damian sent a hint of a party ssage to the party, and the faces of Ser Kim, including Gematak, began to harden like stone at once.
[Notice: The twisted dinsion gate is running out of control!]
[Notice: The twisted dinsion gate summons its own guardian!]
[Notice: The last guardian, Legionoxis, appears!]
Suddenly, the puddle of the twisted dinsion gate is boiling tar. The puddle in the circular square was bubbling up.
