219. One gold coin (1)
Until Belquist returned from the exploration dungeon, the vacancy was replaced by a hero nad Benic from the 2nd party.
Originally, Edith, who heard the news of Belkist’s departure, volunteered to be a pinch hitter, but she was in charge of commanding all the heroes except for the first party. Unless it was particularly necessary, he could not be put on a mission recklessly.
As a hero who joined the 2nd party after clearing the 20th floor, Benic was a thief class whose strengths were a calm disposition and calm judgnt. He was also recomnded by Edith.
At least one person will do it.
‘I don’t think there’s anything to fight about.’
I looked up.
[Floor 47.]
[Mission Type – Search]
[Objective – Search an unfamiliar place!]
The objective window of the mission is floating.
Exploration, a type of mission I’ve been through a few tis.
Nothing special.
‘Is this because it’s reconnaissance?’
The present ti is a bright day.
Sunlight was shining in the clearing where he was first summoned.
But now it’s completely dark. It was because the branches of a huge tree that stretched up to a hundred ters above were blocking the sky. This place, in the middle of the forest, was an environnt no different from night.
“Queueek! Queueek!”
I looked to the side.
Monsters are screaming in the dark of the thickety forest.
Their eyes flashed sullenly. If there wasn’t a transparent wall between and them, I’d probably be fighting the monsters by now.
Full exploration only.
The monsters on the outside of the wall couldn’t touch the hero, so the heroes could easily figure out the enemy’s strength for the next mission while walking on the inner path of the field. It was a traditional mission for a long ti.
‘It doesn’t look like that at all.’
The fallen leaves under my feet were crumbled.
The fallen leaves scattered all over the forest road were black, and the trees stained black were bent unsightly.
And
oh oh oh
On the left side of the forest, an unknown monster was roaming.
Looking at the body protruding from the tree, it was at least 30m tall.
It was large class.
‘many.’
They were hiding here and there in the woods.
The leafy branches swayed everywhere and the bushes scattered restlessly.
They were looking at like I was looking at them.
I narrowed my eyes.
A round object reminiscent of a high-rise building rose several hundred ters ahead.
The shell wriggled as if pulsating.
Hatching is not far away.
It was the influence of that egg that made the otherwise normal forest instantly beco a place of horror experience.
‘It can be said that all the monsters in Taoneer have been mobilized.’
The tall shadows near the egg swayed.
Dozens to hundreds of large monsters.
They were anxiously waiting for the intruder to co.
Nurous dots are floating in the sky seen through the gaps in the trees.
This ti flying monsters.
They were called the natural enemies of the Air Force.
how many
I roughly counted the number of monsters I saw while passing by.
The number was not in tens or hundreds.
thousand units.
Considering the hidden ones, it could be 10,000 units.
‘Too many.’
After breaking the 45th floor, Taoneer has steadily increased his strength.
As a result, Taoneer was able to equip a large-scale force that could not be compared to those of the sa level.
But even so, there were hundreds of them.
[The 50th floor is the turning point. If we can win this battle, we should be able to easily pass at least the 60th floor. That’s because he must have used all the power upstairs.]
Gugu-Kon said so.
The prince, who could interfere with the mission, must have used the monsters upstairs.
If you only break the 50th floor, you can eat the following missions raw.
‘That’s easy.’
That ans that the mission difficulty of the 50th floor is beyond imagination.
It’s not just the number of monsters. I rembered the two nad monsters that stumped .
A beast king and a saint who were heroes of the past. There was a high probability that they would also appear on the 50th floor. Given the seriousness of the situation, even the boss of the 80th floor, the prince, might appear.
‘I can’t do it anymore.’
resources may or may not be available.
At the current account level, even if you wanted to increase your troops, you couldn’t increase them further.
After going through the 50th floor and going through research, the facility had to be expanded one more ti to roll a thousand heroes.
The more I thought about it, the more I regretted the vacancy in the Assinis family.
If they were there, they would have done a great job.
‘I said it was a confined state.’
These were the words that Freea, who had visited the Assinis family, told .
With our help on the 46th floor, Priasis, who succeeded in escaping to the ground, visited the Assinis family once more.
However, the family head of Asinis was in shock at the loss of an heir and declared that he would no longer intervene in the affairs of the Empire and the Church. Now Assinis was out of power.
‘Did he say he was sorry?’
I don’t know how many tis I’ve heard that from Freea.
Saying that she couldn’t convince them, she gave a look close to crying.
And now she was circling the outskirts of the forest with the other mbers of Party 1.
“Kick! Kick! Kick! Kick!”
Kang! Can-can! Kang!
The goblins on the forest road are revealing their teeth to .
They constantly hamred their daggers into the transparent wall between and the monster.
It’s useless, but it doesn’t stop. Blue sparks flew from the wall where the blade was stuck and then scattered.
“Cack! Cack!”
[Contaminated Goblin Lv. 38] X 31
The greenish skin turned black.
Unsightly blood vessels protruded from all over the body.
38 levels. The monsters here were not only nurous, but also greatly increased in strength.
‘…ha.’
I can only sigh.
With our current strength, we cannot fight an all-out war against them.
The tactics that can be used are manning and maneuvering using airships.
You have no choice but to avoid battle as much as possible and use the completed key to quickly remove the egg.
I an, it’s easy.
Mobile warfare is also effective only when there is a shield that can withstand the front.
‘This far.’
Soon after, I ca to the limit of reconnaissance.
I could no longer pass because of the transparent walls.
I took one more look at the forest landscape and turned my steps.
“So brother, how many are there?”
A eting place on the outskirts of the forest.
Jenna trotted up to and asked.
“You know it when you see it. There are a lot of dirty things.”
“There are so many!”
“I can’t breathe because of the foul sll. The whole forest is full of sll.”
Kishasha wrinkled her nose.
Katio, who was inspecting the search magic circle built in the corner, also opened his mouth.
“Probably, the church army is also in the depths of the forest. If you combine the monsters and the church army, wouldn’t it go well over 10,000?”
“Ten thousand?
“How did I co to a place like this, Won. I heard that I was properly scamd.”
Katio let out a deep sigh.
Freea kept her mouth shut with a dark expression.
Everyone’s face is not good.
“What should I do? Is there any good way? I heard that the place called Assinis changed his mind, so there’s no chance of helping him.”
If so, maybe this problem can be solved.
Even though the successor and the contingent were annihilated, the Assinis family did not perish.
According to Pria, they still have a large number of troops.
They just don’t want to help us.
“I’m sorry. If I had been a little more persuasive…”
Fria lowered her head.
“It’s not your fault. Things just went awry.”
If it was Taoneer’s original scenario, we would have progressed through the mission with Assinis’ large army.
But when Delphine died on the 45th floor, things took a huge turn.
I hoped that the history would be corrected and Delphine would co to life as I passed the floor, but that did not happen.
The story of the annihilation of the Assinis contingent remained the sa, and Asinis, who followed Pria’s words and lost an heir, beca distrustful of her.
“The place where you want to fight now… aren’t they all our enemies?”
Katio turned to and said.
I nodded.
Organizations belonging to the Empire.
Three of the four major families are enemy formations from the beginning.
The Imperial Guard and the Church’s forces were also enemies, and Asinis, the only neutral, turned back.
All of the large ard groups in Taonier have turned against us.
“I’m going crazy, this. What should I do?”
Katio scratched his head nervously.
“Shouldn’t we be calm for now? It’s not like this once or twice. Isn’t it?”
“It’s true, but…”
“If you look for it step by step, there will be a way. If it doesn’t work out, we can do it ourselves. We prepared so hard, but we won’t lose.”
“I have to analyze the situation one more ti. Let’s see…”
The mbers of the first party are having a heated discussion.
After taking a step back, I stepped outside.
“Where are you going?”
Jenna asked.
“Get so fresh air.”
I gave a rough answer and moved to the outside of the forest.
Even if I grunt in a narrow place, the answer won’t co out.
Even on Earth, I used to go for a walk whenever the attack was blocked.
‘It’s a bit better.’
It was dark inside the forest, but outside was fine.
The sunlight is coming in well, and the trees and leaves are green.
At least it feels like walking in a forest.
The outskirts of the forest were divided into places that could go and places that could not go.
I made my way outside through the roots and bushes of the beautiful trees.
There was no sign of the mission being over yet. I was thinking of moving until I got here.
‘Are there monsters here too?’
I stopped.
There was a faint sign in the distance.
The presence was slowly approaching where I was.
‘…’
It’s not a monster.
Noticing that fact, I hid myself in the grass.
After about 5 minutes, the owner of the presence revealed his identity.
‘person.’
Two n were walking down the street.
They were moving outside the transparent walls I couldn’t go through.
It is not a religious group.
They were clad in well-ordered leather armour, and carried weapons at their waists.
The man walking on the left is in his early twenties at best. I couldn’t take off my youthful tee.
The man on the right had a very rugged impression, as if he had been through a lot in the gutter.
“Why did you co to this place? How many things to do.”
The man with a rough impression grumbled.
It was a voice and tone that did not match the face.
“It’s suspicious at first glance. That strange-looking egg brings peace. Who believes it?”
“Isn’t that what the church says? Craps like us have no choice but to follow it. And if you really want to investigate, why don’t you send your subordinates?”
“A subordinate. Who is a subordinate? You should call them employees.”
“Yes, we are brother’s subordinates.”
“He is 10 years older than !”
The young man and the man walked through the forest, bickering endlessly
. I looked at the young man. The
body was properly balanced and the walking posture did not shake
.
He must have been trained for a long ti.
Plus… Sothing slls familiar yet unfamiliar.
Unspeakable. Scratchy
.
I looked at my left arm.
Dark red lightning flashed and then disappeared.
‘…’
Brown A young man with a ponytail
looked across the forest and said,
“There are a lot of monsters. too many to count. It’s very crowded.”
“Wouldn’t the higher up take care of it? Co to think of it, monsters rarely attacked these days. Aren’t you guys going to collect these guys and deal with them all at once? It’s peaceful!”
“This… slls like it.”
The young man narrowed his eyes.
“Are you going to gather the kids and attack?” ”
What kind of attack? How do you catch that many guys? It’s just suspicious.”
“Can’t you catch it! who is your brother Isn’t it the idol of all rcenaries in Taoni! Conquering dungeons on all continents in less than 10 years… Big! It’s a feat no one has ever achieved. Isn’t that why I serve you as your brother? If you say a word from your brother, thousands of rcenaries in Taonier will rise like bees!” “It’s noisy.” ”
Brother
Yoshu!”
“Don’t call brother.
” ”
“Who is the rcenary king!”
“Who is there besides you who can be called the rcenary king?”
The man laughed heartily.
