Chapter 478
“Ukit! Ukiiiiit! Is that really all it takes? “Can we make our underground city more peaceful with just that level of vigilance?”
“of course. I am doing this work in the strongest country among the human kingdoms across the sea. Although it has the characteristics of being an underground city, it actually has an advantage. In fact, the light does not turn off for 24 hours. If you regularly patrol along the routes I mentioned, there will be fewer Paleos causing problems. This place should now be treated as a ‘city’ rather than a ‘village’. “There is a need to manage public security in an organized manner.”
Listening to her clear explanation, not only Harhei but also his older brother Paleo, the gorilla, looked very impressed.
“Rowland! Indeed… He is indeed the person Leeha and his friends introduced. “Guardian God!”
“Okay, okay, big brother! Let’s do it right away. As this female said, now!”
“Rowland!”
The older gorilla, Paleo, bowed deeply towards Harhei and turned around. Before leaving the guardian deity’s residence, I did not forget to say hello to her.
“thanks. Thank you so much, human female.”
“Isn’t it time you called me by my name?”
When she smiled brightly, her older brother Paleo, the gorilla, was embarrassed.
I would never have thought that the smile of a human female I had never seen before could have such strong offensive power(?). Paleo, the older gorilla, took a step back, feeling an emotion he had never experienced before.
“Yeah, that’s right. Thank you, Shinnara.”
“It was nothing. “I’m really glad if it was helpful.”
Bbabam-!
The moment he finished speaking, a cheerful fanfare sounded in Shin Nara’s head. Her expression became as bright as the sound effect.
Achieved 100% intimacy with the spirit creature Harhei.
Achieved 100% intimacy with the spirit creature Harhei’s Paleo – Lowland Gorilla.
“Well, Rowland!”
The older gorilla Paleo said hello to Harhei and went outside.
Harhei, who was frantically running around the huge jungle gym, suddenly came in front of her and clapped with his hands and feet.
“Ukit! As expected, Ukit! That friend, that friend’s friends, and those friends’ other friends! They are all our friends! “Very good!”
Ta-da! Ta-da!
Seeing the ugly monkey happy like a child, Shinnara let out a small sigh.
‘That was the most difficult NPC ever, ugh…. How can I forget to spend more than a day working on intimacy without giving any special quests? Even going to Minnis’ village wouldn’t take more than a day. Mr. Lee Ha, or rather, how did Luger and Kid achieve 100% in 12 hours?’
It was all thanks to Leeha that she was here.
She had already achieved 100% intimacy with the Red Goat and the Black Crane Paleo, and while wandering around looking for her next target, she received a whisper from Lee Ha and was guided to this place.
However, compared to the three musketeers’ first encounter with the gorillas Paleo while hunting Rhinodilo, she came only as an introduction, and had no opportunity to prove her abilities.
Normally, she would show off her name as a member of the Sacred Knights and her swordsmanship skills, and rapidly increase her intimacy by completing quests and combining her affinity, but it was as if one foot was tied up.
Therefore, compared to the three musketeers who spent money or did hunting quests, it was inevitably more difficult for Shinnara, who was even nicknamed ‘the user closest to NPC’, to build intimacy with them.
“Then let’s go.”
“Ukit! thank you! Human female, no, Shinnara, you are always welcome in our city! Ukkiit!”
“Hehe, thank you for saying that. Until next time, stay healthy, Harhei.”
“Ukit! Ukit!”
Harhei felt even better after hearing her polite greeting. Xin Nara tore up the scroll as he left the abode of the tribe’s guardian deity.
It was finally the end of my nearly 30-hour relationship with Gorilla Paleo.
“Whew… it’s hard, it’s hard. “There are less than 10 hours left.”
Outside, the sun was already about to set.
There are only about 10 hours left until Hyein clears the quest with the Warp Gate members.
Even in the largest community related to Middle Earth, there were no special posts. This is because everyone had logged into Middle Earth early and was making preparations to come to the New Continent.
“I have strengthened intimacy with three tribes in the name of Sacred… but I wish I could do one more.”
She stretched and opened the friend window.
Among the many users added to her, the one at the top is as follows. Of course he caught my eye first.
?Mr. Leeha!
-Uh, Nara?! …Now you’re out!
?How difficult was it really? My gorilla friends really didn’t get along with me. Who in the world would have thought that it would take over 30 hours to achieve 100% intimacy. Isn’t it?
-Yeah, that’s right. Mrs. Nara… Leeha.
If it were an average user, it would have taken at least a week…
I could barely hold back the words. This was especially true since he himself achieved it before one day.
Shinnara continued to smile while hearing Lee Ha’s awkward laughter.
Regardless of the content, her cheekbones are on the rise just by hearing her voice.
-So, can you tell me one more thing? If you introduce one more person, I will tell you a secret to rapidly increasing intimacy. Well, asking for this kind of thing at such a late date with the gorillas is-
uh, what’s going on between us? all right. Well… I’ll tell you about the best Paleo friends, so go there. I will briefly explain the location and characteristics.
-Are we… between us?
-yes. why?
Xin Nara almost bit her tongue.
However, when I heard Lee Ha’s calm voice a while later, I let out a small sigh again. As soon as I whispered to him, his expression seemed to change 10 times a minute.
‘Are you just saying this…? I thought it meant something too.’
But the country was unknown.
What kind of expression does Lee Ha, who is currently whispering with me, have in his body? How is he twisting his body and kicking the ground?
Those were the words that I managed to muster up the courage to express, but in reality, the expressions below were not able to reach the country.
?The location has been confirmed! So paleo… I think 10 hours is enough! Thank you, Mr. Lee Ha! Look forward to it as we will make it to the Hall of Fame and tell you our secrets!
?Ah, yes… that’s right.
Nara, who heard the approximate location description given by Leeha, sent a reply.
Leeha’s voice seemed to be dead somewhere, but as expected, Shinnara did not notice Leeha’s situation.
“Why is Lee Ha’s voice so weak? No need for a secret? Hmm, with this, I can achieve 100% intimacy with most NPCs in one day… but that’s a big deal.”
She tilted her head and took a step towards the location explained by Lee Ha.
What she didn’t know was that just 20 minutes after she left, a light purple light sparkled near the spot.
“There was an underground city in a place like this… I guess we can finally do business now.”
The kimono fluttered in the wind.
* * *
‘Paleo, who turns into a cow, likes grass. If you give him meat, instead of building intimacy, he will be degraded, so be careful…? Huhu, it looks like Mr. Lee Ha is solidifying his pattern with food-driven tactics.’
Shinnara moved quickly, thinking over the information Lee Ha had given him.
As if she was riding in a car, the surrounding scenery was passing behind her, but there was not even a trace of breath on her face.
‘The spirit animal is a cow with eight legs and two heads. It was said that two cows will fight if left alone. If his personality is similar to that of Two-Headed Ogre, then the point of attack is probably there. Resolving the conflict between two cow heads! That alone will increase intimacy by 30%.’
With only a few fragmentary facts, she had enough time to devise her own strategy.
Lee Ha, remembering her days as a gorilla paleo, tried to grill meat, but her intimacy dropped to negative and she had a hard time, but she won’t make that mistake.
“Hmm, the air is nice. The overall freshness of Erica’s New World is definitely higher than that of Lope’s Old World. It would be nice to go to a place like a botanical garden with Lee Ha later. Hehe. Ah, but it’s still uncomfortable to get around in a wheelchair— hmm?!”
Although she was running frantically, her senses were still alive.
It’s not the feeling of the tip of your toes, the feeling of the dirt you’ve been stepping on or the crumbling of branches that have fallen to the ground.
What is this exhilarating energy that can be felt even beyond the plate boots?!
“trap!”
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
It was impossible to stop while running at high speed.
By the time she realized it was a trap, the energy that exploded from the floor had already blown her away.
Whirling!
Fortunately, the damage was not significant. She felt dizzy for a moment, but soon came to her senses and twisted her body in the air.
“Ugh, what happened all of a sudden-… Damn, no way.”
She dissipated some of her energy by percussing and placing her foot on the wooden pillar, and then settled down on the ground again.
But his expression became even more distorted.
Who set the trap here?
You have been caught in the status abnormality ‘Mana Barrier’.
You cannot go outside the restricted area for 30 minutes.
(The barrier can be dismantled if you have a higher level of ability than the caster)
You are subject to the status abnormality ‘Space Bind’.
All movement within the range is restricted for 15 minutes.
Moreover, in the moment the trap explodes and she steps back on the ground, who is capable of planning something like this? The answer was clear.
“Buhihihi, god ma’am?! Suppraaa????is!”
There was no need to check the face of the person walking step by step at the end of the barrier related to movement. Because his tone of voice was enough to determine his identity.
“…Pitre. “You really…”
“Did you think no one would find you if you hid underground? Hehehe, I can praise you for quickly running away from the colony of Paleo cranes, but you can’t escape me with this level of trickery!”
The nails on both of Pitre’s hands sparkled.
A sharpness caught Shinnara’s attention for a moment, but she soon diverted her attention elsewhere.
‘Black Crane Paleo… It’s already been two days ago. Pitre wasn’t there at that time.’
How does that guy know his whereabouts?
Clearly, there was no pittre in the Paleo colony of black cranes. Before that, it was the same with red goat paleo.
How else would he have known that he had just come out of the basement?
‘No, the direction is also strange. How did they know I would pass this way and set up a trap – and how did I walk out of [the direction I wanted to go]?’
This was clearly something he had been waiting for with confidence.
That was what Shin Nara thought was strange.
‘I heard that there is only Lee Ha in the Paleo village. Even after leaving, there were no traces of other users-‘
Then how, why, why was Pitre there?
“Boohihi, what are you thinking like that? A thought without an answer is not a thought, Shin Mae Am.”
The posture of Pitre, who plays Myau, a beast race, has been lowered.
Like a tiger about to attack, Shin Nara’s muscles also gained strength as he kicked the ground on all fours and walked toward Nara.
“Hwiyuu… That’s right, that’s right. Ultimately, it was a problem that had to be solved. “What you think is not important.”
Pitre’s arms and legs moved smoothly but extremely slowly.
Her arms also moved very slowly. With a scabbard on his waist. Slowly, very slowly.
