Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Chapter 165

Episode 165 Exploration (4)

An expandable backpack worth 2 million stones.

Steel daggers and miscellaneous equipment.

A bundle of consumables that would be more effective against humans than against monsters.

And…

“What the hell was that person doing?”

A spoonful of awkwardness that landed like a stone.

They were things left for us by a masked man whose name we don’t know.

“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think I’m just an ordinary looter. I go alone, and that’s the same at the end…” The

masked man chose to commit suicide as soon as the situation became unfavorable.

It is far from the normal situation for anyone to see.

It’s just…

“Stop worrying about it. Now that you’re curious, you won’t be able to find out anything.”

The truth has already been buried in darkness.

So we have no choice but to take care of what we have to take care of and move on.

Isn’t that the kind of explorer?

“Bjorn. How many cotton candies are these?”

Einar asked with mouth-watering eyes, and when I tried to answer, Raven opened his mouth.

“If you put it all together, it will be about 3.5 million stones.”

“…Do you have any knowledge about this?”

“You’ll know for sure when you sell it in the city, but the error won’t be much. I’ve obtained a general appraiser’s license before.”

Well, there is such a thing…….

When I asked in detail, special emotional love was different. Is it possible to win only when you can determine the value only with pure knowledge, not skill?

“Yandel-san, if you have time later, try studying. Even if you just show me this, there’s no need to bargain and fight for nothing. The broker’s license may be a bit difficult—” “It’s okay. I’ve never lost in a battle of nerves.

”

He cut off his words and resumed his exploration before he could brag about himself. The way it progressed was not much different from the time of Team Banpoon.

He chose the Stairway of Wisdom as the first priority and the Stairway of Courage as the second priority, concentrating only on climbing the tower.

“…Uh, are you wandering around in a maze all day again?”

“There’s no help because there’s no professional explorer.”

Every time I took the Stairway of Wisdom, it was hard to find the way, but I had to do my best to find the way.

That’s right, my mother-in-law is next to me.

“4 hours and 34 minutes.”

“4 hours 11 minutes.

” “3 hours 59 minutes.”

Raven counts the time at the end of the maze.

Fortunately, however, the record gradually decreases as you go up

. It was a long way to go, but

“4 hours and 35 minutes. This time, it suddenly increased, right?” ”

… I couldn’t help it because Einar stepped on a trap.”

“Excuse me.”

Day 9, Day 10, Day 11…

The time went by quickly, and from the 12th, we just slept without a night watch.

”

Are you going to set a night watch today?

” Isn’t this over the line? A surprise attack here and nowhere else…”

Mischa resents as if the sanctuary was being invaded.

In fact, I felt the same way.

The only place I could rest in peace was here.

‘Nimiral.’

There were things like this, but the exploration went smoothly and on the 16th day, we reached stage 100. From

now on, it is possible to search the portal to the 5th floor.

“2 hours and 41 minutes… . It’s gotten really fast.”

Even Raven, who acted like her mother-in-law every day, had a satisfied smile on her lips.

By the way, this was the same for me as well

.

The 3-hour wall was thick even if I was alive and dying.

However, I realized one thing and was able to shorten the record beyond the demonic section.

Breaking traps is easier and faster.

“Oh, Mr. Yandel. How long did you say it took to get here when you had a professional searcher on your team?”

“It took about 12 days.”

“A difference of four days isn’t bad. Since it is a combination without a seeker, it will be much more comfortable on the 5th floor.”

I agree with you.

We lost four days due to the absence of a seeker, but our team members are all combat characters. We

can make up for it in battle.

But… ….

‘Hoo, can’t I just give you a compliment?’

It was at a time when such dissatisfaction lingered inside, and

Misha came over and tapped me on the shoulder, saying,

“Bjorn, you’ve worked hard. I really didn’t know it would turn out like this. Maybe we ‘re the only team that the barbarian guides?”

You

‘re the

only one…

“Then it’s time for me to go out.”

I

obediently handed over the steering wheel.

To get to the 5th floor, you need to open the doors in the correct order…

“Which door Can I open the ?”

“That’s the door over there.”

That’s why the guide is a fraud.

Even if your sensory stats don’t exceed a certain level, you can recognize the magic of the portal with just one innate talent.

“I chose the Stairway

of Courage.” I chose the stairs.?

?I chose the stairs of courage…?

So, using Mr. Bear as a compass, I headed towards a portal hidden somewhere in the tower.

Open the door, overcome the ordeal, and repeat.

That’s one more night. “Finally, the last door.”

We arrived

at the stage with the portal.

The view looking at the end of the 17th car.

It was time to camp soon, so first I wanted to take a break and open the door tomorrow and go in.

But…

“I think I’ll be able to concentrate better now.”

Considering the characteristics of Raven, who is vulnerable in the morning, I decided to proceed today.

The portal room is the boss It’s also a room.

The better the mage’s condition is, the better.

“As I said before, there are always level 5 monsters here.” ”

You mean those vampire-like monsters?”

He seems to want to quickly confirm how much he has changed since then.

Phish.

For some reason, he laughed.

Originally, he said not to relax and that less than 50% of the aspiring graduates who had reached this point survived. I was going to

add that. ……

“Why don’t you talk over there?”

There must be no meaning.

It won’t be like a barbarian.

“I forgot.”

“Yes?”

“Let’s go find something.”

I opened the door

and went up the stairs. headed to the next stage.

A stone chamber with a familiar tombstone embedded in the center.

When all five of them entered, the door closed and a monster was summoned.

[Gaaah—!!]

I laughed again without realizing it.

I wondered what kind of guy would come out.

“You’re a troll!”

Yes, I have to give him at least this to make me feel like I’m graduating.

***

Trolls.

[Dungeon and Stone] The guy who broke my keyboard when I was about 1 year old…….

The guy who had a history of driving us to the brink of annihilation during Tim Banpun’s days.

“Will it start with distortion magic? I heard troll by-products are so expensive.”

Because he’s also very talkative.

If it’s around 5th grade, it’s going to be worth it.

“It’s okay. Essences are expensive anyway, right?”

“If so.”

The time when Raven and I were briefly exchanging words.

coo-!

The troll screamed and stepped forward.

Therefore, I also kicked the ground to play the role of a tanker.

?The character casts [Giant].?

The difference in weight class decreased in an instant.

As soon as the distance decreased, the troll swung a huge fist.

Quaang!

A heavy impact transmitted through a giant shield.

But is it because he ate ogre essence?

not very cool

‘The shield is still intact.’

The shield made of titanium, which had been bent with each blow, did not budge this time either.

It is thanks to the 6th stage imprint effect [Union].

Now, the performance of the equipment I wear is enhanced in proportion to the sum of the stats.

Yeah, how much did I pay to take this picture!

“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”

After boosting the stats with [Wild Eruption], I hit the mace as hard as I could.

?The character has cast [Swing]?

?The destructive power of blunt weapons increases significantly in proportion to muscle strength.?

The target hitting point is the head.

However, because he twisted his body, the giant mace slammed into his shoulder.

Crank!

A deformedly lowered shoulder with an audible hitting sound.

It was dislocated in just one shot.

It used to take six blows just to break a fleshy joint.

[Geuaah—!!]

Of course, like a troll, which is synonymous with healing power, within a few seconds, the bones reattached.

But at this point, the measurement of my combat power is over.

‘Let’s take a look.’

I focused on defense and observed my teammates.

First of all, from the original member, Missha.

I haven’t absorbed any new essences since then, but…

abruptly!

The swinging sword slashes through the troll’s skin all too easily.

It is the power of wisdom.

Isn’t it a long sword made by Iril that I bought for 12 million stones?

If you can’t do this, go and get a refund.

“Behel—laaaaa!!”

It was Einar’s shout.

Einar immediately joins the battle line and wields a greatsword, perhaps because he was envious of Misha, who played an active role first.

Whoa-!

Strong wind pressure rises along the sword’s trajectory, leaving an afterimage.

Oh, is it a bit like an afterimage?

?Einer Pnellin cast [Repeat Slash].? A

4th grade Essence active skill inherited from the Elder.

The effect is simple.

When it is cut once, it applies a double cut effect.

Awesome! Awesome!

Oh, of course, it was insignificant against trolls.

A greatsword that could penetrate only about 3 cm even though the weight of the greatsword was added to its superior strength.

It was because Einar’s skill was [Repeat Slash].

It’s a skill that’s difficult to perform well with a normal hit.

“This guy’s skin is tough… Ah!”

Einar allowed the troll’s fist and fell backwards. He got up again, but blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

appearance of organ damage.

“Behel—laaaaa!!”

However, instead of eating the potion and resting behind, Einar clung to him again and swung his greatsword.

It was a rational choice rather than stubbornness.

This time, the great sword had a red light.

Bone Knight’s active skill obtained from Bloody Fortress.

?Einer Pnellin has cast [Absorb Life].?

?When damage is inflicted on a creature, regenerative power temporarily increases.?

Einar fills up with blood when he hits an enemy.

A great quality to have as a sub-deal tank.

By using [Repeat Slash] together with [Absorb Life], Ainar regained his original state in a few strokes.

‘It’s a lower deal than Misha, but it’s much better at tanking.’

After watching the battle between the two for a while, I checked the strengths and weaknesses and the points to be supplemented in the future.

‘Einar should get a useful attack aircraft first and feed him. Misha needs to raise the level of the number of souls by feeding more animal blood.’

It was a time when I was dealing with trolls with such thoughts in mind.

Mr. Bear asked from behind.

“Can we wear it now?”

“Ah, were you waiting for me?”

“I was just curious how well those two girls would fight.”

“I’m not a girl!!!”

It’s Einar’s cry. Anyway, when I agreed, Mr. Bear also joined the battle.

?Abman Urikfried has summoned Cheolwoong Iradun.?

However, did he judge that the previous line was not enough and overflowed?

Mr. Bear summoned the soul number behind him like a bodyguard and fired the crossbow in earnest.

Push! Push! Push!

An arrow that pierces deep into the body of a troll, making a huge gong sound every time it is shot.

You can feel the skill even in the hit parts.

An attack method that restricts movement by driving it into a joint such as the elbow or knee.

Slow-!

Misha and Einar worked together to cut off the troll’s arm.

And the [Super Regeneration] pattern started.

The regeneration speed was slow because Raven had cast ‘deterioration’ magic in advance.

‘I guess there’s nothing more to see.’

The car I was about to chop off the troll’s head with my mace.

“stop!”

Mr. Bear stopped me.

“The third lady should also play an active part.”

“…Can you please stop calling me a lady?”

Soon after, Raven grunted and swung the wand.

I didn’t say to avoid it like Dwalkie did.

Rather than not being considerate, it is more like deciding that there is no need for that.

?Arua Raven cast a level 5 attack magic, [Thunder Spear].?

White lightning was fired while avoiding our location in a zigzag pattern.

My eyes flashed.

The sound came after that.

Kwakkwakkwak-!!

By the time he recognized it, the troll’s head had already been blown off.

dump.

The troll collapses on the floor and disappears as it is in the light.

Oh, of course, there was no integer this time.

***

Killed a troll.

It’s as easy as playing with it.

Of course, that doesn’t mean there are no dangers on the fifth floor. Because that’s where many level 5 monsters appear.

Whoa-!

A portal opened when a troll died.

However, we did not go up to the 5th floor right away and camped out. It was time to sleep even after going up, so we decided that it would be better to sleep more comfortably for a day.

‘Is this really the beginning?’

After tossing and turning for a while with anxiety and anticipation, I fell asleep.

and the next morning.

To be precise, around 7 am on the 18th.

“Wow, I’m really going to go to the 5th floor too…”

After finishing packing up, we entered the portal.

?I have entered the Daimakyo on the 5th floor.?

This means that the first half has graduated.

It’s time to go on a real adventure.
