YM778.TV Chapter 134
No biscuits or balls of yarn, but that’s okay.
Because we have Rotmiller.
“Wait, just in case, I’ll leave one more mark at this point.”
At one time, I wondered what the use of a searcher was in a place where even a guide could not find the way properly, but…….
It was all my arrogance.
Rising from the bottom step by step, Rottmiller was a truly versatile man.
“Can I look at the map?”
“I know.”
He made a map based on the route we walked.
It wasn’t just a crudely made map, it was a sophisticated map reminiscent of a minimap.
I made it just by pausing once every 10 minutes to swipe swipe.
“Now that we’re done, give it to us. We need to update the map as well.”
“Here you are.”
Rottmiller moving the pen over the map without hesitation was amazing every time I saw it, but I don’t ask how this is possible.
yeah i already did it before
[It’s not that complicated, so you can memorize it just by walking. For distance measurement, you can count your steps and write them down accordingly.]
Map making and observation are the areas you are most confident in, as you have been doing them in the crystal cave on the 1st floor for several years.
I never thought this man had such talent.
It was a bit sad.
Rather than talent, it must be the result of hard work that I naturally acquired because I did not have talent.
“Sorry to take your time. Let’s go.”
Stopping for about 30 seconds is also a while.
Walk through the dark maze again.
Rottmiller follows close behind.
By the way, in his hand is not a crossbow, but a longsword.
It was a change that came about after fighting several times before.
[This is enough to hold on to at least one guy.]
Rotmiller, whose stats have increased, began to actively intervene in battle.
Just like the top explorers usually do.
It is to do one person’s work outside of exploration.
“It’s yours this time.”
After receiving a warning from Rotmiller, who had a developed sense of smell, four Bykundus appeared from the front.
Four level 6 monsters would be a crowd of a scale that I hadn’t experienced on the 4th floor… but
no one was particularly nervous.
Because we have dwalkies.
Fish Woo Woo!
A ‘reinforced ice spear’ that is launched as soon as the monster appears.
But even here it is different from before.
There are two ice spears that are several times stronger than before.
‘I didn’t know that they would double cast.’
When I found out about this, I felt a bit embarrassed.
Having been together for several months, I didn’t really know about them at all.
‘Nimiral.’
It’s just that the magical power level is abnormally low.
Dwalki’s magic talent was considerable.
Enough to use additional secondary magic while double casting.
「Rioll Warb Dwalki cast 8th grade auxiliary magic [Orbit Adjustment]」
Ice spears flying over our heads like cannonballs fired from afar without stepping aside to make space.
Aaaaaang-!
Before the battle even started, two level 6 monsters turned into light and disappeared.
Therefore…
“Let’s get rid of it and move on. This time, one of them will be taken by Miss Karlstein and me.”
While I only marked one guy.
Misha and Rotmiller team up to take on the other.
And around the time Misha had killed one.
Fish Woo Woo!
After completing the chanting once more, Dwalki’s ice spear shattered the head of Vaikundus, who had been knocking me down.
This took about 4 minutes or so.
“What are you doing, Bjorn? I’m not going.”
This is the last change of our team Banpun.
“Whoops, don’t worry about whatever appears. Whatever it is, I, Riol Warb Dwalki, will take care of it.”
Dwalki is down again.
***
Keeper of Balance.
Originally, wizards benefit most from this field effect.
Because wizards can’t eat essence.
Inevitably, it is a structure in which the main stat, horsepower, has no choice but to be blown up.
But…
‘That’s enough.’
It is the first time I have ever seen such an extreme case as Dwalki.
However, if you look closely, it is an acceptable change.
The wizards I brought with me in the game were all talented, so they had high magic-related stats.
Unlike Dwalki, the former half-penny wizard.
“It’s a really mysterious feeling. Should I say it feels like all the shackles have been lifted?”
Dwalkies are human.
And he has a body that is far from exercise.
Besides, he had magic power levels that were below the average, let alone
average…
I don’t know if the whole team is human.
Me, Misha, and the dwarf.
There are three different races with naturally high basic stats on the team.
Rot Miller?
Although he is on the side of the benefit, he is by no means comparable to Dwalki.
First of all, he’s a veteran who ate four full essences.
‘……Somehow, it’s like the magician’s abilities were annihilated.’
After watching the whole day, I finished analyzing the team’s strength.
I was the one who suffered the most loss, but…
‘Can things work out this well?’
Looking at the team as a whole, it has become at least twice as strong.
Because [Dungeon and Stone] is a team battle game.
The maximum efficiency comes out when everyone can play the role of one person rather than one person who is exceptional.
It’s a bit bittersweet, but…….
that’s why I wanted to leave Team Banpun.
‘Is this the first and last proper team play?’
Rotmiller and Dwalki.
Today I was able to see something I hadn’t seen in both of them.
But nothing changes.
With a lot of effort and luck, it would be possible for them to reach the level they are today.
But…
‘It will take several years.’
It takes a long time.
Besides, that would be the final point where they can grow.
The downside to both is so obvious.
Rot Miller?
It’s combat power, you just have to feed it with essence and fill it up.
However, in order to play the game I want, I need a seeker with the ‘leader’ ability from the 5th floor onwards.
Dwalkie?
It’s a double cast, and after all, the greatest quality of a wizard is the number of magical powers.
That’s why the Magic Tower wouldn’t have accepted it either.
It’s a cold word, but…
Judging by the Mage Tower, Dwalki’s talent wasn’t particularly special.
When the thought reached that point, my heart suddenly felt cold.
I don’t feel like that, really.
「The character has received cold damage.」
Cold that penetrates the skin and penetrates the bones.
When I came to my senses, Misha was snorting.
“Hey Bjorn!! How long are you going to ignore me!!”
“Oh what did you say?”
“What can I say! Everyone is going to sleep now, so I told you to keep a proper watch!”
Misha asked in a soft voice if she was worried because it was too late to get angry and punch her heart into my chest.
“But… are you okay?”
“It’s okay. It’s still cold, but it doesn’t hurt.”
I sincerely tilted my head.
“I?”
“Yeah. I’m going to explain it in words, but… Ah! If I had to ask, it was similar to the expression you made when I asked you to eat carrots.”
oh so i don’t know
“It’s okay, go to bed. Don’t worry, I’ll wake up properly.”
“Um, okay.”
Soon Misha went back to her seat and slipped into her sleeping bag.
And chatted with other colleagues.
“Oh, I was really tired for something today.”
“Haha, that’s understandable. How many monsters did you kill when you were dragged to an unknown place?”
“…It’s okay to say that, but I was a little happy. Should I say it’s the feeling of exploring for the first time? In fact, it’s different from the exploration I’ve longed for so far.”
“Ah, I think you know what I mean.”
“Haha, I felt like an explorer in a story.”
A few words to share while lying down before ending the day.
Of course, it wasn’t as long as it was time for rest.
“Oh right. Dwalkie today was amazing.”
“Is that because of my pride? To conserve mana, without having to calculate the formula over and over again, it’s enough just to shoot it? Any magician would have been able to do that.”
“Uh…… such a river? Even if you say that, I don’t know. Anyway, you worked hard today and I’m proud of you.”
“Have a good night Miss Misha.”
After the sparse conversation, silence comes.
[01 : 04]
One hour has passed since the car started on the 20th.
I checked my plans while being wary of my surroundings.
‘I’ll be able to get that stuff in a few more hours, so now I just need to find the boss room.’
If it’s our current strength, the boss fight doesn’t seem to be too much trouble, so there’s no big worry.
The only catch is that if you’re unlucky, you may not be able to get to the boss room in time.
‘If I had stayed for one more week, I would have packed everything and
left …’
When I turned my head at the rustle of people, I saw Dwalkie, who had risen from the sleeping bag.
“That Bjorn…”
“Even if you can’t sleep, go to sleep. Tomorrow—”
“It’s not that I can’t sleep.”
huh?
Before I had time to say anything, Dwalki stood up and came towards me.
And I muffled my voice so that my colleagues wouldn’t wake up.
“I have something to tell you.”
Yesterday, Rotmiller came like this, so it seems it was his turn this time.
“…Try it.”
“Remember what I said about Miss Mischa’s taste last time?”
“I remember.”
I never forget a lie once told.
That way there won’t be any holes later.
Well, in the current situation, it doesn’t make any sense.
“So what do you want to say?”
As I stared, Dwalkie opened her mouth with a determined look.
“I was going to ask if what you said was true. But now that I think about it, it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not.”
Dwalkie’s voice was different from usual.
There was no trembling, and the gaze looking up at me was also firm.
“Her tastes are fine. It would be cowardly to ask for the truth without showing my true self.”
“……What do you mean?”
“You don’t know. You already know that I secretly adore her.”
At least I wish I could have gone back to the city and said—
“If you survive this time and come back to the city—”
“Enough.”
I hurriedly interrupted Dwalkie.
That’s because there’s a distinct difference between thinking about it and saying it yourself.
It’s just that I misunderstood my sincere concern.
“As expected, you, Bjorn too…”
Dwalkie pressed her lips together and shook her head as if to shake off her thoughts. And he spoke with a firmer voice than ever before.
“Still nothing changes.”
“Stop talking. I see your misunderstanding—”
“I’ll clear my mind when I get back to the city.”
No, that’s a flag.
‘Nimiral.’ Suddenly, I started
to
feel as anxious as I did when I met Hans
. Then let’s go.”
After that, Dwalki turned around and buried himself in his sleeping bag as if running
away. And before long,
he let out a whisper. ‘……But I ‘m
not saying that I’m going to propose, so will it be okay?’
I also tried to erase my worries and focus on my night shift.
Two hours passed like that, and I woke up the dwarf, took my shift, and lay down.
And when I opened my eyes again,
it was time to leave.
[05:07] It’s time to leave.
That’s only four hours tonight, and that’s it. It was just the dwarf and me who
decided to stand up for night watch alternately
. There’s not much time left now.”
“Tomorrow is my and Rottmiller’s turn, so work hard today and get some rest later.” We
simply organized the camp and resumed our journey.
By the way, today’s goal is clear.
“Bjorn’s As you said, you seem to have reached the outer surface of the labyrinth, so from now on, I will only walk in one direction along this wall.” The
corner of the Larkaz maze, which is a square structure.
Defeat the middle boss here and get the hidden reward.
FYI, yes. I don’t know which of the mid-bosses will come out,
because this one is also randomized
in the game .
[Meaek-!!!]
He spurred his movement by defeating hundreds of Baikundus today as well.
There was still no sign of essence coming out, but
instead, a lot of mana stones piled up.
“Ha ha ha! Even if it’s only magic stones, it’s pretty good, right?”
Actually, this is the second reward of the maze.
There is no place on the 5th floor where level 6 monsters come out in a single type that are easy to catch. If it was on the 4th floor, it would have been difficult to encounter even 20 of them in a day.
” ……dead end?”
After traveling for about 12 hours, we reached our destination.
The point corresponding to the corner of the maze. “I couldn’t believe there
was nothing here.”
there is Or you’re in the wrong place.”
“Haha, there’s no way out, right?”
“There’s no way that’s the case. This is also a labyrinth.” As
the party reached the dead-end wall and spit out one word at a time, Rottmiller observed the wall carefully and
muttered something
.
Is it because of the sixth sense attached to the essence?
Or is it just this man’s power of observation?
Click and rumble. When
you touch something, the wall slides to the side and reveals a hidden space. ”
Wow , the door
has opened.”
He jumped forward and raised his shield, and I quickly joined him as I noticed.
Of course, there were no monsters jumping out
of nowhere .
“……Nothing came out?
” It was impossible to check with the naked eye because the space in the was covered in darkness.
In fact, it meant nothing to me.
“I will lead.”
“Bjorn! It could be dangerous!”
“It’s okay. That’s my role.”
Instead of being a grumpy dwarf, he said something like a tanker, and when I went inside, the torches on the walls lit up all at once, lighting up the hall.
I quickly checked my surroundings.
“This is… “
A stone chamber that is about 30 pyeong.
Magic circles with geometric patterns drawn on the floor.
Even a pole with a goat’s head on it decorates
it.
” I can’t see the portal, so can’t we just leave?”
I secretly smiled as I saw Misha and Dwalki muttering ominously.
But they don’t know.
Compared to the other rooms, this is a nobleman
. It’s going to be a piece of cake. It’s how to use it, so I think I’ll just have to give Rotmiller a clue as before…’
Thanks to that, I’ve been relieved.
Catching the boss will be a little difficult, but if you’re unlucky, you won’t be able to see the boss’s face. ” By the way,
how do I summon him? If I just do it, it’ll look suspicious.”
It was a moment when I was thinking about such a pleasant thought.
“Huh?”
“…
You
can’t believe it
?” Suddenly, your magic power has increased tremendously.”
“Me too. Why is my body like this?”
As my strength level decreased, the slightly burdensome pressure of heavy armor disappeared. It felt like I was wearing Styrofoam armor for cosplay. Why on earth did
this happen? As soon as
I realized the truth, curse words came out.
‘This shit……’
Vitality gushes from the whole body.
A change at a level that I couldn’t feel even if I used [Giant].
I already know the reason for the change.
“Rotmiller”
“…. ..You seem to have the same thoughts as me.”
The 4th floor of the hidden field Larcas’ maze.
Another explorer entered this place.
‘At least one to a maximum of five people.’
According to common sense, it’s most likely a team of 5, but it’s still too early to conclude.
All possibilities are open.
But…
At least one thing is certain. Whether it’s
him
or them.
“Field effect .” – The Guardian of Balance is renewed.」
「The stats of the entrants are adjusted evenly.」
It is extremely strong.
