Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Chapter 14

Episode 14 Return (1)

The moment Erwen picked up the arrow with a nervous face.

I pushed her forward.

“to?”

Erwen, who was suddenly pushed on his back, took a step, and in the process, his flesh contacted the essence floating in the air.

Shaaaaaaa-!

Essence emits light and winds itself into Erwen’s body.

“What a crazy bastard!”

After all, that was the purpose of those bastards.

“Move! I would have told you not to!”

Soon, a group of four explorers arrived 10m away.

but what about this

He already ate Jeongsu.

I took an imposing step without showing any nervousness.

“Why should I listen to you?”

“The essence was ours!”

I picture the situation roughly in my head when I didn’t feed Erwen the essence.

Maybe I was forced to give it up.

It’s something we caught with an arrow from far away, or whatever the reason is, if you attach it, somehow it will work.

“Come on if you want to fight. I’ll deal with you as much as you like.”

four and two.

Although outnumbered, I responded strongly.

It is similar to how small dogs bark loudly.

Because I want to avoid fighting as much as possible.

People are like animals, and if you look down on them, they will bite you.

“…….”

The redhead, who seemed to be the representative of the other group, gritted his teeth without saying a word.

I guess I should think of a map.

I don’t know if the essence remains in the air.

The owner has already been decided, but there is nothing to be gained by fighting with us.

So it’s wiser to give up and go—

“…demand compensation.”

Did you try to whine?

Seeing Jeongsu disappear right in front of his eyes, he must have been very sad too.

I have no reason to consider it.

“We took the essence we obtained. What kind of reward are you talking about?”

“Do you have any proof? We just hunted that goblin.”

They do not hesitate to ask the question, ‘Do you have any proof?’

It’s obvious, but there’s no such thing.

There is no CCTV in the labyrinth.

In the end, the words of a man with power will become truth.

“I repeat, if you want to fight, attack me. I will not avoid you.”

I responded stubbornly without any doubt.

If you’re going to mess with it, if you’re going to mess with it, don’t force it and go away.

He didn’t even give me time to think about it.

“I’ll give you three. If you don’t make a decision before that, I’ll consider you an enemy.”

“Ah uncle…?”

Why can’t he understand the atmosphere?

Stay alone. Can’t you see they’re all scared because they’re going strong now?

“three.”

“two.”

“I’m leaving.”

Before counting one, he made his choice.

Well, even if it were me, I would be like that if a barbarian with a tattoo this size was counting.

If it had really been taken away from them, they would have turned on the lights in their eyes and tried to take revenge, but

they would know better that that wasn’t the case.

Soon they disappeared from our sight.

“Are you gone?”

“Yes. I think so.”

“I will speed up until we reach the portal. Take the lead.”

At my words, Erwen cleared the road at the level of running without further comment.

I am feeling it to some extent.

Even though it passed without bloodshed, it’s not all over yet.

“What’s their sign?”

“I can’t feel it. Ah, there’s a group of goblins at 3 o’clock. What should I do?”

“Ignore it.”

“yes.”

Originally, he planned to go back leisurely hunting goblins, but his plans changed.

Get out of the second floor as quickly as possible.

And if possible, go down to the first floor and get as far away from the portal as possible.

Upon hearing my plan, Erwen tilted her head.

“Shall I follow you to the first floor?”

“It’s not following. It’s just that the destination is the same.”

“What does that mean?”

It’s a simple guess.

The four of them were organizing a party.

And if there are four of us, it’s quite enough to be active at the beginning of the second floor. However, it moves toward the entrance, not the outskirts?

The intention is clear.

“It’s highly likely that they also planned to go down to the first floor and return to the city on the 7th day. So they must have met here around this time.”

“Ah…….”

To put it simply, they’re just like us on the 2nd floor, talking nonsense.

So, when the number doubled, they must have gotten scared of me and ran away.

Maybe it’s not even a proper party, it’s just a bunch of people who met by chance on the first floor.

“I see…”

Erwen quietly nodded at my continued words. I’m not sure if I understood correctly.

“As expected, the uncle is amazing!”

…didn’t you?

“I’ll do what you tell me!”

Well, maybe this would be better.

It’s because those who roll their heads clumsily have more accidents.

“Mister Goblin!”

“I’m avoiding it.”

“But you think you’ve already found us over there? They’re running this way now!”

“what?”

As soon as I heard the story, I felt a sense of alienation.

From the 4th day until now, not once have the goblins found us first.

To that extent, Erwen’s sensing ability was excellent.

No matter how different it was back then, even if it was running and moving, it couldn’t be a mere coincidence.

Isn’t he even in the state of absorbing the essence now?

“First, detour in the opposite direction.”

“yes!”

At my direction, Erwen turned.

and that moment.

Whii profit!

Arrows are fired from the bent direction.

As soon as I found it, I pulled Erwen’s back.

“Kek!”

Erwen let out a groan as his airways were compressed, but

he’d better be strangled for a while.

Rather than having your throat pierced.

bang!

As soon as I covered my upper body with my shield while hugging Erwen, the arrows ricocheted off my shield.

It’s quite heavy even if it’s brushed.

Is that the bastard that was holding the crossbow earlier?

“I can… I can avoid the blood on my own…”

Erwen says something while giggling.

I’m sorry but I don’t have time to listen.

“There was……”

“Run for now.”

I started running with Erwen in the lead again.

“Mister, if an arrow comes flying again, there’s no need to pull it like that…”

“Be quiet. I’m thinking about

it.” Erwen kept his mouth shut.

I continued my thoughts while running while being wary of my surroundings.

I don’t know how they did it, but they lured the goblins. And they’re trying to ambush us from the opposite direction and eat us up.

If we just run away like this, will we be able to reach the portal safely?

‘No way.’

I predicted the possibility, but it was judged extremely low.

There is a crossbowman over there.

The goblins will continue to pursue us.

If you’re lucky with all of this, you might arrive alive…

but at least I’m not that lucky guy.

“I’ll have to fight.”

Time to take a few breaths.

In it, I concluded.

“Use Erwen’s ability.”

“Are you capable?”

“It means to use the power of the essence.”

Essences dropped by monsters contain the special abilities of each object.

For example

[Goblin Archer]

Agility +2 Versatility +4 Sight +6 Smell +2 Perception +2 Impaired Perception +6 Accuracy +8 Poison Resist +4 Obsession +7

(P) Poison Arrow — Gives poison damage when using a live weapon do.

(A) Stealth Step — gain stealth.

This information is displayed in the game.

Stat increase and one passive and one active.

This information will also apply in this world.

There have been some variables so far, such as the demon start point, but at least in this area it has always matched the game.

“But I don’t know how to use it……”

I smiled as I saw Erwen who was taken aback after hearing the unreasonable demands.

“All right.”

“Are you done?”

“It means you’re in stealth.”

Erwen’s running body became blurry.

Even so, it’s so weak that you can see it from far away…

“Stop and try.”

When you stop walking, the stealth effect becomes stronger.

This is the reason why the characters move so slowly in the game. As time passed while standing still, it went beyond translucent and became almost transparent.

Although there is a clear sense of heterogeneity in the outline, it will not be visible unless you are at close range.

How much more so in a dark forest like this.

“Wow…….”

Erwen exclaimed as he looked at his body.

Interestingly, so am I.

I think the points are a bit different from him.

It’s not a starter word or anything like that, it’s a mechanism that activates skills in response to your will.

Anyway, let’s look at this in more detail later.

“Erwen. Take this.”

“yes?’

I handed over the backpack to Erwen

and continued with a quick-fire gun,

“You hide here and when I give you a signal, shoot the crossbowman first. You should never step out before that. Do you understand?”

“What do you mean…”

“There is no time. I know you understand.”

I quickly finished what I had to say and immediately started running.

“Wait a minute signal! How was the signal—!”

I heard a small shout from behind, but it took a lot of risk to go back.

Turbuck.

I stopped after moving about 30m from my original position.

I didn’t even intend to go far

in the first place. It’s a big deal if you step on it.

“Greuk geureuk!”

I turned around and heard that goblins were flocking from the left ahead.

And those bastards…

I don’t know where they are yet.

They blocked the first step and haven’t revealed themselves yet. .But

don’t worry too much.

It’s obvious what these bastards are thinking.

“Greuk geuk geuk!”

If you’re fighting goblins, they’ll appear first.

That’s probably why you lured them in in the first place.

Returning to the present, I looked at the swarming goblins. .

“Gureuk!!”

Out of the dozen goblins, there are two swordsmen.

Fortunately, there are no archers among the goblin horde—

KANG!

Yes.

I rushed at the goblin horde, parrying the arrows flying with my shield.

Of course, I couldn’t run rampant like before. .Not

only goblin archers, but also human crossbowmen will be aiming for me.

Kk!

After a period of about 10 seconds, another arrow flies in.

This time, it belongs

to the goblin archer. Kk!

I shattered the goblin swordsman wielding it.

In return, I got slightly stabbed in the leg by another goblin with a carving knife, but…

Push.

I can’t help it.

I have to take this risk.

The number of goblins must decrease Because they will feel impatient and show themselves.

Puck! Puck! Puck!

As I possess the barbarians and beat the goblins, the injuries gradually increase.

Arms, thighs, sides, etc.

If you look at each one, it’s not serious, but it’s piled up like this, so you can’t ignore it. Puck

!

When I started to turn to poison, my senses spread from the injuries, but when

I took all of this and

hurt

a total of seven goblins

. The

direction

was different,

one for the goblin archer and one for the crossbowman,

it’s hard to block both.

I chose to block the crossbow’s arrows from the side with my shield.

bang!

Heaviness that differs from that of Goblin Archers.

Is this really the power of a crossbow?

The tea that made me think like that! With a sound, a goblin arrow pierced his left elbow.

“Fuck.”

sick.

did it reach the bone? Pain is also painful, but just because an arrow hit it, my arm doesn’t move at all.

Shiva, I tried to use the shoulder guard somehow, but it’s harder than I thought.

Took.

Without regret, I threw away the hammer in my right hand.

And he lifted the shield held in his crippled left hand. If you choose between a hammer and a shield, the shield is always better.

Even more so in the current situation.

puck! puck! puck!

With the shield held in one hand, I hit the three remaining goblins and slashed them, and the surroundings were cleared for now.

The goblin archers also bounced and the arrows stopped.

It’s a scarred first-round victory, but did you hold on anyway?

I exclaimed.

“Come out! Chew!”

I never thought I’d say this to a human, not a goblin.

Well, is there anything different?

Whoa!

The guy who says come out doesn’t come out, and arrows are shot from afar.

That of a human crossbowman.

As expected, blocking was not a problem.

Just…

bang!

what is civa

The arrow pierced the iron plate and exposed the point.

If I do it wrong, my hand will also get bruised.

As I covered my upper body with my shield and alerted people beyond the bush, I heard a chuckle of people before long.

“Barbarian.”

There were three people who showed up.

A redhead who is presumed to be the leader.

A samurai holding a single-edged sword like a Japanese sword.

Muldae holding a one-handed sword and shield.

The crossbow is still invisible.

“It was you guys too.”

“Yes, we are.”

How did you lure the goblins? I didn’t ask questions like that.

Because if I did, I would definitely look down on it even more.

“Come on.”

“Are you sure you’re a barbarian? You’re full of energy even after dealing with so many goblins by yourself. Where is that fairy girl?”

I thought there were a lot of words, but this was the purpose after all.

“I think I handed over my backpack, but if you don’t want to see me sick, you better tell me.”

As soon as I heard it, I burst out laughing.

If you tell me, I will let you go without hesitation, so you know who is a Hogu idiot.

“Crazy.”

The leader frowned as he watched me split the thread.

A look as if he was tired of something.

Apparently, in his eyes, I looked like a classic barbarian.

“First, subdue and ask slowly.”

The leader exchanged glances with his colleagues, and then slowly closed the distance together.

Captured live…….

It’s a nice story to hear.

Hey, even if you kill me, it won’t pay off.

There must have been several reasons for the surprise attack.

The equipment we collected for 7 days, Erwen, who has a beautiful appearance, and the good fortune of others we saw right in front of our noses, even the fact that we don’t have to feel sick to our stomach.

feel it again

“Everyone, don’t be vigilant and think of hunting large monsters.”

Seriously, there are too many efficiency bugs in this world.

Well, maybe that’s how I grew up.

Seruk.

I slowly raised my hand.

An arrow was stuck in my elbow, and now the paralysis poison began to turn, and I forced my left hand, which did not move well, to raise it above my head.

And…

“What are you doing?”

He raised his middle middle finger high.

Whoa!

So that anyone who has lived in this world can see it as an unusual sign.

hook-!

Soon, a terrifying sound resounded through the woods.
