YM778.TV Chapter 104
This guy’s essence has quite decent abilities.
[Yeti]
Strength +10 Agility +10 Bone Strength +15 Cold Resistance +25 Cold Sensitivity +15
First of all, it has paired stats that are tier 1, and bone strength and cold resistance are also defensive abilities that are classified as upper tiers.
But does it have cold sensitivity?
‘This should be enough for several years.’
Sensitivity stat is a key ability of attribute dealers like Misha.
As strength increases, physical damage increases.
Depending on the level of sensitivity, the power of the attribute is corrected.
‘As expected, he’s lucky.’
I also felt it in the Witch’s Forest, but Misha is the exact opposite type to me.
Do I have to say that things work out smoothly no matter what I do?
Just because the Yeti’s essence came out in blue.
(P) Chills – All attacks deal additional cold damage and reduce the frost resistance of the affected target.
Passive is common regardless of color, so aside from that.
(A) Cold Condensation – Temporarily greatly increases cold sensitivity.
Among the Yeti’s active skills, exactly what I wanted was dropped. [Cold Explosion] isn’t bad either, but compared to potential, there’s nothing like this.
‘It’s a skill that could be used as a pawn essence if the basic stats were good.’
[Cold condensation] shines as it progresses towards the second half.
Well, because of the problem that the stat bonus was too low, I had no choice but to delete it in the second half.
‘It would have been much better if the Yeti had only become a 5th grade monster…’
It’s useless.
That was when I was thinking about it.
“How much is it?”
“Huh?”
“How long has it been since you’ve been so lazy!”
what are you still doing?
“You know, but I spent a lot of money this time, so there’s not that much……”
At this point, I wonder why he’s doing this, but if you think about it, it’s not that I can’t understand.
That’s why the explorer’s essence distribution method is ruthless.
When the essence drops, first find someone to eat it.
And when the owner comes out, he pays the party members based on the average value announced by the guild.
But…
‘When there are no buyers among the team members, it hits the target.’
There are times when buyers do not come out because they cannot afford the integer value, not because they do not need it.
No, on the contrary, there are overwhelmingly many cases like this.
However, even in that case, they wait 30 minutes until they disappear naturally before resuming exploration.
‘It must mean that good things are never done for free.’
That’s the kind of explorers.
But Misha was lucky this time too.
“Don’t worry about money. Such distribution is only for those who have met and parted a few times.”
“Is that like that?”
I am a barbarian who knows how to invest for the future.
For my safe exploration life, Mischa needs to be reborn as a better dealer.
“Then you want to eat…?”
“Why do you keep looking at me? Hurry up and eat.”
“Are you really eating?”
How many times do I have to say
Misha, who had been an explorer for a long time, seemed awkward about receiving something in return.
“What are you hesitating about? It’s enough for me that you’re always by my side.”
“Thank you for saying that, but… Ah, I don’t know either. They really eat it!!”
Contrary to how she shouted vigorously, Misha cautiously placed her hand on her essence.
「The [Essence of Yeti] permeates Misha Karlstein’s soul.」
Essence that radiates blue light and winds itself into Misha’s body.
“…Is it because it’s been two years? It’s a very strange feeling.”
“You’ll get used to it soon.”
I decided to explain the details of the Yeti in detail later when I had time, so I turned my back and looked at the ‘Jensen’ group.
Apparently, this side has also been discussed…
“How did you decide to do that?”
Carlson carefully answered my question.
“I… no one decided to eat this.”
It was a slightly unexpected result.
You’re going to throw away the essence that came out?
Are those beginners too?
“Well… I heard that Miss Gencia saw this essence coming out of the Frostwolf.”
“so?”
“If it’s a frost wolf… I’ve decided that the essence doesn’t suit me.”
yeah that’s how it came out
I asked, carefully observing Carlson’s expression.
“Do you know anything about the Frostwolves?”
Grade 9 monster Frostwolf.
Although the grade is low, information about this guy is not well known because you can only meet it after reaching the 6th floor if you exclude the rift.
But did the 12th floor explorer know about this?
It’s not impossible, but it’s certainly not uncommon.
“That… I don’t know, but isn’t it a 9th grade Essence? Maybe a better Essence will come out later…” ”
…I see.”
It’s a little suspicious, but looking at the answer, there was nothing wrong with it.
I don’t know if it was outside.
Isn’t this place in the rift where the drop rate of essence is rising terribly? There is only one Essence slot, so it must have been a pity to fill in the 9th grade Essence.
“Oh, of course, I meant to take what was left, nothing else.”
“I know, so I have no excuses.”
After Carlson’s interview, it was Gencia’s turn.
“Are you like this person?”
“Yes… I only have one seat, so I want to be a little more careful…”
Be careful.
I don’t think the swordsman who ate the goblin archer’s essence had anything to say…
“That… it costs a lot to erase the essence, right? So I thought I shouldn’t make the same mistake this time… …..”
I guess I learned a lesson from my last mistake.
If this is the case, there is nothing more to say.
“I’m sorry. You made concessions for us at best.”
In the end, both interviews ended without much success.
That was the part I couldn’t bear.
‘I thought I would be able to know the identity of at least one person.’
Originally, the plan was to erase that person from the dragon’s line if the one who ate this essence came out.
But…….
As a result, neither of them took the essence, and the answer to that was also unnecessarily.
‘Couldn’t all of them be one team?’
Even with the worst in mind, I stopped thinking.
That’s right, it’s time for the last wave to begin.
“By the way… is it all over now?”
Gensia muttered in an uneasy voice.
and that moment.
Jijik Jikjik –
The last wave of the second chapter began after the remnant time created by dealing with the Yeti that appeared as the mid-boss early.
The nine-layered ice wall had already been broken, and the hall was four times wider than before.
“Up!”
The cracked ceiling breaks like a spider’s web, revealing a beast 3m in diameter.
[Wow Ah Ah Ah- !!]
Hair white hair covered on the leather.
A mane that climbed up the spine and covered the area around the neck.
A 7th grade monster whose main specialty is walking on two legs and tearing enemies apart with sharp claws.
“…a lycanthrope!”
Lycanthrope.
At Misha’s cry, Mr. Bear expressed his doubts.
“Isn’t it too big for a lycanthrope? What’s that club in your hand?”
It is a reasonable question.
That guy is the final boss of the rift we entered.
If you don’t know that the guardian of the glacial cave is the tyrant Tarunbas.
“You’d better be careful.”
For the first time, Mr. Bear nervously gave me advice, as if he instinctively sensed that it was not an easy enemy.
Of course, I spilled it roughly.
Yes, it’s the final boss, but…
Fighting this guy will come later.
“Wow, be careful!”
At first glance, the appearance of an unusual guy raised their concentration and prepared for the future.
And then.
“Tarun Bath, the tyrant who discovered the intruder, gets very angry.”
“Tarun Bath, the tyrant, casts [Ice Crush]
. ”
Kwaaaang-!
A shock so great that the whole area vibrates.
Soon, the incontinence spread like a spider’s web on the floor, just like the ceiling…
“Huh huh?”
“Rain Bjorn!!”
“…The floor is collapsing!”
The ground collapsed and we fell.
“Aaaaaaaaaa!!”
It’s time to move on to the third chapter.
***
「The character has entered a special area.」
「Field effect – Glacier den is granted.」
「Status abnormality [Hypothermia] is applied.」
「Agility level decreases drastically and cold damage taken is doubled. 」
***
“Puff!”
I stick my head out above the surface of the water and inhale the breath I’ve been holding back. Then he trudged toward the ground and lay down on the floor.
Swearing came out of nowhere.
‘Damn reality patch.’
In the game, you just have to wait for the loading window.
The third chapter started with the waterside, although HP was significantly reduced.
But how was it in reality?
‘I thought it was really going to end.’
Where we fell, an underground water vein was flowing.
It’s also very strong.
I had to ride the rapid current, driving here and there as if being swept away by the tide, and when I came to my senses, I was being thrown down the waterfall.
‘I guess it was because of this that my HP decreased.’
I hit every curve and my socks hurt.
I feel like I want to rest for a while like this… but taking a break isn’t going to suit my personality.
“Bjorn! Are you okay? Wake up… uh what? Ah! That was it!”
It was noisy for some reason, so when I opened my eyes, I saw Misha’s face right in front of me. I pushed my chin with one hand and stood up.
“Geup! What are you doing!!”
That sounds like something I would do.
“It’s not Bjorn, it’s Bjorn.”
After chanting softly so that only Misha could hear it, he quickly checked the surroundings.
“Ewwgh! Awww!”
First of all, I saw Carlson gagging and regurgitating water.
“Are you okay?”
Next was Gencia, who kindly patted him on the back.
By the way, Mr. Bear is……
“It must be cold.”
I was warming up in front of a campfire I don’t know when it was started.
When our eyes met, Mr. Bear gestured.
“If you’re sober, come here.”
“Please take care of yourself.”
“Wow, do you usually carry firewood?”
“Since I was traveling alone, I had no choice but to pack everything.”
He said he was playing solo, but was it real?
I don’t know, but I went to the bonfire and dried my clothes and body first. While doing so, ‘Jensen’ also came and quietly crouched down before long.
“…do you know where the lycanthrope disappeared earlier?”
When Carlson asked, shivering from the cold, Mr. Bear answered bluntly.
“How do we know that? I didn’t come in after studying beforehand. Don’t disturb me while I’m resting.”
“Ah yes… Excuse me.”
After that, maintenance and break time continued.
Everyone took off their clothes and gear and spread them around the campfire, and ate a simple meal.
But… ”
It’s strangely cold .”
Despite being dry and warming up over a bonfire, the cold doesn’t go away. It’s
better than being soaked wet, but should I say it doesn’t get warmer beyond a certain level? Soon
after, Mr. Bear came to a conclusion
.
“Special area… you mean?”
“Ah! Are you referring to a place like the Witch’s Forest?”
“Yes, it’s cold anyway, because it’s not natural for the body to become so stiff.”
“Hmm, such a cold river? I don’t know…”
Seeing us trembling in front of the campfire, Misha tilted her head.
It’s not deception, she must be sincere.
That’s because her cold resistance will be much higher than ours.
‘The penalty is much less . I must have received it.’
Misha signed a contract with the Ice Beast, Scadia.
It is also an ‘enhancement system’ with the largest stat bonus.
But this time, since she ate the Yeti’s essence
…
In [Dungeons and Stones], 40 is not a low number by any means,
because my pain resistance is only 70. Aside from the amount
of damage reduction, even if it’s at that level, you won’t feel the cold very much.
“…It’s very cold . ?”
“Okay. It’s cold, but it doesn’t hurt.”
“I don’t know what you mean…”
I mean literally.
My body trembles from the cold, but I don’t feel pain.
But did that answer make me feel more pitiful?
” Whoa, you ignorant Barbarian old man.”
Misha sighed and wriggled next to me.
Then, instead of the clothes being dried, she gently flapped a rolled-up blanket and made an unreasonable suggestion
. .” ……What
did
he say?
“Whiyu.”
Seeing Mr. Bear whistle, I didn’t think I was
strange
. It took a lot of time…
“It’s too late.”
It’s already been over 12 hours since I entered the rift.
It was around 19:00 when the rift opened, so it means I haven’t slept for a total of 31 hours
. … There don’t seem to be any monsters here, so why don’t we all sleep together?”
In the end, everyone agreed to Carlson’s suggestion and decided to sleep at least briefly.
“We’ll go over there and sleep separately.”
“It’s going to be cold. ?”
“I carry firewood for emergency use.”
“If so, do it yourself.”
Sleeping over a bonfire was not feasible, so I went to a far away corner and started a new bonfire
.
The time will be cut in half, but…
I find it more attractive to live and sleep a little bit than to die and sleep
to the fullest. “Come on, Bjorn,
go to bed first.
” ?” Since it was only the two
of us after a long time , we left sleep behind and talked about delays. First of
all, the first thing was about the essence. You
need to know what you ate so that you can use it well later on in real life
.
Not great. Anyway, from now on, pay close attention.”
After reciting the essence of the world, I lowered my voice even further. “Did
any of the three do anything suspicious while they were here?”
I deliberately asked Mischa The ostensible reason was to ask
the rear to be vigilant before the battle broke out in the front, but
in reality,
the party’s surveillance was great. Lira judged.
“Um, suspicious behavior? I don’t know.”
“Okay. That’s it. If possible, please pay more attention in the future.”
“I will.”
Finally, after the conversation, I went into the blanket and lay down.
Then, I looked back over the words and actions of Carlson and Gensia Bear, looking back to see if there was anything I missed
. During the day, I observed their every move. In a normal conversation, I continued to sprinkle bait and gather clues. As a
result, I was able to draw a prime suspect.
But…
‘There is no conclusive evidence either.’
It’s still not enough to conclude that it’s the mafia.
I wish there was just one more clue…
It was a time when my mind was gradually sinking into a daze with thoughts biting tail after tail.
“That Bjorn,”
said Misha. She shook my shoulder gently.
“Now that I think about it, there’s a strange part…”
I was tired, but I listened to her story.
And…
“Nice job Misha.”
“Oh something. Was it helpful?”
“Of course.”
What’s the only help?
Finally, the last puzzle was solved.
I smiled as I looked toward Mr. Bear’s bonfire
.
It was you, mafia.
