Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Chapter 263

Episode 263 Bug (2)

A cave where crystals clinging to the walls emit a brilliant light.

It’s a place I’ve been to several times already, but it’s unfamiliar today.

Well, since it’s actually been two months, I wonder if that’s natural, but…

‘Other reasons must have played a part.’

I looked around and licked my lips in regret.

Unlike usual, there are only three of them.

Also, it’s not as bright as daylight, but the surroundings are bright enough to require a separate torch.

To put it simply…

“It’s not a dark area.”

Experience copying bug fixed.

It means that it is now impossible to start from the 2nd floor portal entrance using the dimensional instability phenomenon.

“Do you know anything?”

When I pretended not to know, Raven carefully came up with an inference.

“I heard that the royal family recently put in a big request for the magic tower. I didn’t know the details because I’ve been living outside these days… Looking at it now, it might have been portal stabilization work.”

After that I’m really stuck with a bug because of it.

Still, thanks to Soul Queens, I was preparing my mind in advance, so it was quick to give up my lingering feelings.

what can i do I’m going to go classic from now on.

You’ve been sucking honey properly for months, haven’t you?

“I will move slowly.”

After looking around the terrain at the starting point, I quickly took out a compass and found the direction.

That’s right, the number of people entering this time is not too small.

If done well, it might be possible to supply and receive portal opening experience points without bugs.

“Summon Abman Cheolwoong. Are you going to move a little faster than usual?”

Soon after, Mr. Bear pulled out a summoned beast, and Raven got on top of it, accustomed to it.

“It would be nice if Mr. Einar was this fluffy…”

Anyway, what about wizards?

Are you always thinking about riding?

“Uh-uhh-!”

Anyway, as I ran in the lead, Raven and Mr. Bear followed.

A formation with Mr. Bear, who has a solid body for a one-hander, positioned at the rear.

Goblins aren’t much of a threat anymore…

But just in case you don’t know.

The most dangerous thing in the labyrinth has always been people.

‘First of all, it seems that there are no cubs of Noark…….’

At first, he ran through the cave nervously, but soon lowered the level of alert.

While speeding up, he encountered several explorers, but most of them were low-level explorers wearing lower gear.

Even that number is small.

‘Maybe it’s possible to open a real portal?’

As time passed, a sense of hope gradually developed, but it was destroyed the moment it arrived at the beginning of the Dark Zone.

“It looks like there are some passengers.”

A 9th grade magic stone that is on the way we are going.

There was no way that Misha’s team had passed first.

I don’t know about Erwen, but I didn’t teach Misha and Einar that way.

“……Why are you picking it up?”

“A level 9 magic stone is also a magic stone.”

When I think of the days when I crawled across this long passage on three feet, it is unacceptable to throw away the magic stone.

At that time, this little magic stone was my hope—

“No, I meant I could retrieve it with magic.”

well that’s it too

No, so you’re saying that the team that passed through here didn’t have a single wizard?

At this speed, I thought it would be a top-tier team.

“Reite.”

Instead of torches, he lit up the darkness with light magic and continued running again.

After about 40 minutes passed, a portal appeared.

I didn’t expect it, but as expected, the portal had already been opened by someone.

?I have entered the Goblin Forest on the 2nd floor.?

I put my body behind the regret and went into the portal.

It was a promise to wait upstairs no matter who arrived first.

“…It was the same in the cave earlier, but something feels strange.”

“Yes. It was so intense back then.”

The goblin forest where there was a bloody battle between the Noarks and the explorers of Lapdonia.

The surroundings were quiet and no one could be seen.

“Misha seems to be still here, so wait a while.”

Afterwards, I had free time to take a break and looked around, and I was able to find traces of people nearby.

“I think it’s the people who came first. But why are you looking so closely?”

“I’m just worried about something.”

“Uh, when Mr. Yandel says things like that, I suddenly get nervous…”

What did he say?

“Everyone, don’t stand, sit down and rest a little. You never know when the other team will come.”

Soon, we also took out our individual chairs from the subspace and sat down.

Occasionally, goblins approached from afar, but there was nothing to disturb their rest.

That much was solved in Cheolwoong’s line.

***

“Hey there……”

A forest bathed in soft moonlight.

A woman who appeared to be in her early twenties opened her mouth as if complaining.

“Now that the second floor is up and there is no one around, can’t we summon our Yongyong?”

“No. It will definitely leave a mark with that size.”

“Ah sister. Don’t do that. Where is there one or two summoners? Yes?”

“Stop Carmilla. Didn’t Mr. Rain Wales say no?”

“Is the old man over there?”

“Even if you stay still, you’ll be fine. What on earth are you struggling with in the first place? If only you were sitting on my shoulder all the time on the first floor—” “No, you

say you smell like a widower. It’s on your clothes. It’s harmful to your nose!”

“……what?”

The warrior who picked up the woman at the sharp edge stopped walking for a moment, but he only let out a sigh as if it was a familiar thing and ended it.

“So what am I going to say to you?”

“Don’t do it in the first place then!”

“I know you’re sensitive these days, Carmilla, but don’t be so childish all the time. I don’t know about you, but other people do.”

“The real lesson is…”

the woman called Carmilla muttered and pouted.

She didn’t like the whole situation.

“Anyway, why do we still have to do our mission? Does it change anything if everyone abandons us and runs outside and kills the explorer with no news?”

“…There must be a reason for that, too. In fact, I didn’t even get a call a few days ago.”

“Oh yes. That contact that cut off in 10 seconds after just talking to them?”

Carmilla said sarcastically, and the archer also frowned.

“They didn’t ask for understanding either. Because of the barrier, it’s impossible to keep in touch for a long time. They seem to say there’s a way to get us out though, so we’ll just work hard on our own—” “Naive. Don’t you think that’s a lie?

”

“…Then why did Miss Carmilla follow you all the way here? Not in the city?”

“That’s…”

Carmilla murmured and bit her lip.

How can you even say that?

He said that he didn’t want to go, but he didn’t know how that woman would come out, so he followed him.

‘Ah, what’s really going on?’

Somehow nervous, she spoke sharply to the archer again.

“By the way, Nevarce. So what happened to the Annihilator? You were the one who stayed with me until the end.”

“I didn’t tell you. The Annihilator talked to ‘him’ and then disappeared—” ”

Enough everyone.”

Soon after, the woman who opened the way stopped, and the archer also stopped talking and changed his expression.

“Is something wrong with Amelia?”

“The trap set near the portal has disappeared.”

“It means that someone came up to the second floor. Judging by the time, it looks like a top explorer… Maybe more explorers than we expected entered.”

“Is there a team that can guess Nebarce?”

“I don’t know. But they probably don’t belong to a large clan. They’re not the ones who move without conviction.”

“Right.”

Carmilla spat out at the conversation between the two.

“But does it matter who you are? I don’t know why I’m curious about that.”

“……It’s definitely not wrong.”

At her words, Amelia seemed to be deep in thought, and then muttered softly.

“But somehow it bothers me.”

“Yes? What did you say?”

Amelia shook her head.

“……It’s nothing. Let’s move again.”

***

“Mister, have you been waiting for a long time? I’m sorry. It took a little while since I started in the southern section.”

After arriving at the forest and waiting for about 2 hours, Misha’s team arrived on the second floor.

So, we quickly resumed our movement.

That’s right, while I was waiting, more than ten teams had already passed by here.

‘It’s not as empty as I thought.’

The third-floor portal that arrived later was, of course, already open, and this was the same for the fourth floor that arrived over six days.

“But now I can eat properly.”

Having spent the entire schedule running without eating properly, we replenished our stamina and cleared the ordeal.

Unlike usual, it was a party of 6 people, but the pace was rather slow.

This is because the difficulty of the trials increases from 6 people onwards.

It’s good that the number of monsters has increased, but in the case of the trial of wisdom where you have to pass the maze, it took a lot more time because the map got bigger.

‘Is it still because of the race value? He sure finds his way better than me.’

Erwen, who was trained as a searcher by her older sister, found her way better than I expected.

If I was based on experience and knowledge, Erwen was closer to the type of person who relied on his senses to find his way. Night vision was much better, so it was possible to spot traps from afar.

“From here on, I can understand even without Mr. Abman. This is the door, right?

Even without the leader talent, he had a sense level high enough to find the portal leading to the 5th floor.

I don’t think hearing was attached to the essences I ate.

‘Is it just innate?’

Anyway, when I arrived at the portal on the 5th floor, it was around the beginning of the car on the 19th.

‘Is it about a day later than usual?’

If there were 7 of us, it would have taken much longer.

From then on, the waiting time itself, which exists for each ordeal, increases.

Oh, by the way, this is proportional to the number of people.

It’s not like a large clan chooses to split teams of five and meet on the 5th floor for no reason.

“Aruru, but why don’t the lower floors meet on the second floor and hunt like we do?”

“We need to divide one more person’s share, but the unit price doesn’t match on the lower floors. Besides, if you want to divide a team into two, it’s important to have one guide on each side. Aren’t there a lot of non-combatants among the explorers on the lower floors?”

“Mmm! That’s right!”

“I…now I get it! You just nodded without understanding at all, right?”

“Oh, you’re a wizard too!”

“Both of you, stop playing around and go to bed.”

It was time to camp anyway, so after resting on the safe fourth floor, I went early. In the morning, everyone entered the 5th floor.

?I entered the 5th floor of Daimakyo.?

The 5th floor, which I arrived after a long time, showed a slightly different appearance from the beginning.

It was exactly what I expected

.

Wherever I go, I don’t see the clans that always arrived first to settle down and control the hunting grounds.

Also…

“Oh! over there! Istol Toss party!”

In the past, monsters that you couldn’t even see unless you paid for the clan freely roam the field.

“Originally,

it was a place with so many monsters,” said

Mr. has been active on the 5th floor for a long time.

It must feel strange as there was a lot of ill feelings towards the clan.

“Yandel What do you think? After all, this situation won’t continue, right?”

“Yes, it probably won’t be long.”

I answered honestly.

Even if it’s only next month, large clans will enter the labyrinth one by one. I’ll fill it all up.

” So I’ll stop watching and move on. Opportunities like this don’t come easily.”

There was a monster that would be difficult to catch unless it was this time.
