Episode 413 Bad Link (3)
“That… Actually, I’ve had a good sense since I was a kid…” When I
looked at him with a puzzled expression, the goblin started off by saying that, citing various experiences he had experienced as examples. told me
There was one word that left a deep impression among them. “
It was like that on the day the pillar of
fire rose!
Because ‘sixth sense’ is a real stat in [Dungeon & Stone].
“Okay, go back to your seat.”
“Are you leaving?”
“We can’t just continue the forced march because of unfounded anxiety.”
“……W I guess so, right?”
“Yes. But let’s think about it.”
After leaving room for words, the guy left with an expression of ‘yes, this would be the best’, and only then did the colleagues around him spit out a word.
“You’re a strange friend.”
The beginning is the supernatural magician Didi, who refined the phrase ‘Am I crazy?’.
“Perhaps he received a revelation. He is a paladin who serves the gods.”
Ashed, the magician, spoke as if defending him, and in Erwen’s case, he had a somewhat unpleasant expression on his face.
“Who is that person? Everyone is tired and resting, but it’s unlucky.”
“Sleep, calm down.”
As I was comforting Erwen, Amelia came over to talk to me.
“What are you going to do with Suits? It’s not just an expression that dismisses it as nonsense.”
“Because there is a reason why explorers are superstitious.”
“So you’re going to follow me?”
“Well…”
I’ll have to think about it.
In fact, as soon as I heard that, I started to feel something bad.
Swoop.
In that sense, I looked down at the traffic light ring I was wearing. The ring was still not emitting any light.
But it’s too early to be complacent.
‘Because this ring does not foretell all events.’
The traffic light ring was like that in the game too.
Even if there is an event nearby, it does not always have a 100% chance of being triggered, but it works arbitrarily.
Although when the green light comes on, there is always something good nearby.
Just because the fire didn’t start doesn’t mean that nothing good is happening nearby…
‘What should I do?’
It was a time when I was so deeply troubled.
?The ring detected the fate of the character.?
Suddenly, the ring worked and emitted light.
Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I hurriedly lowered my head and confirmed that the color of the light was a very vivid red.
“mister……?”
Leaving Erwen’s flustered voice behind, she quickly stood up.
And…
“Everyone get ready to move!”
After taking a break, we hurriedly resumed our movement.
“……I haven’t been able to rest for less than 10 minutes yet.”
“The crew is having a hard time.”
The team leaders expressed their concerns, but there was nothing they could do about it.
Isn’t it better to just be a little tougher than going through a red event?
“According to the formation! We will depart now!”
It must have been about 30 minutes since we started marching again.
Shaaaaaaa.
The light in the ring went out.
I don’t know what kind of negative event was approaching us, but…
I was bewildered and absurd.
‘What the hell is that bastard Sven Farrav?’
Is it just a coincidence?
Well, no matter how good a person’s sixth sense is, how can the radius be wider than a traffic light ring?
Even though he was thinking about that, he said that he had a good feeling and tried to persuade me with a sincere expression.
Therefore, while moving, I fell behind for a while and stuck next to the goblin.
“How about now? Are you okay?”
If I was still anxious, it was my judgment that I could just dismiss it as a coincidence.
Doesn’t he know about traffic light rings—
“Oh yeah… it’s comfortable.”
What is he like…?
***
7th floor dark continent.
A human male with a stout body like a barbarian bent down and touched the ground.
“Baekho, there are traces of someone staying here!”
“Yes? How many?”
“I think there are more than 20 people, but I’m not sure! But what is certain is that they have just left!”
A loud cry befitting its size.
In response, the old man gave a short chant even though his ears hurt.
“Maybe it’s them.”
“They?”
“Isn’t that right? Those who broke the eye of the sky and said they were on the run.”
“Ah, those guys…….”
“Would you like to follow them? If they really are, they should be able to ask Noark for quite a bit this time.”
“Mmm.”
The blond man, who had been worried about the old man’s words, stared at one place with a smile.
“Meow, what do you think would be good for you?”
A playful voice.
When asked, the beastman woman frowned in displeasure, but gave no answer.
“I can tell just by looking at your expression. You mean you don’t like it?”
“…Because time is wasted.”
“It’s a waste of time, but if you’re a city person, you just don’t want to mess with it.”
“…….”
“It’s not fun.”
When the conversation between the two ended, the warrior who first discovered the traces asked in a calm voice.
“So what are you going to do? Will you follow me?”
“No. Why bother?”
The blond man shrugged and continued.
“It’s not certain anyway, right? If I’ve been there, what if they’re just hunting cubs around?”
“It will only waste time. But isn’t it a waste?
“It’s okay. If you catch them, something great will come out.”
Soon after, the blond man shook his hand as if he was annoyed, then pulled out a chair from the subspace and sat down.
“If we met here by chance, we don’t know, but we need to follow and check. Let’s do our own thing.
“If that’s what you mean, it can’t be helped.”
“Okay then, this story ends here. Let’s take a break, eat something, and move again. Hey Aures!”
“Haha! Just wait a little bit! I’ll cook delicious meat right away!”
Before long, the smell of grilling meat began to waft around them.
***
60 days after entering the Labyrinth.
In other words, there are 15 days left until the 7th floor is closed.
“Somehow I ended up here.”
We arrived at ‘Lower’s Rest’, the western field of ‘Dragon Sim’ where the portal is located.
Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
A black fog filled the surroundings that did not dissipate even in strong winds.
Tens of thousands of old swords stuck in an endless field.
It was a space that boasted a bleak atmosphere somewhere, but no one expressed their feelings about it.
After all, there was no one who could afford to indulge in such feelings.
“Shuitz, we have to keep moving. If we stay still and get surrounded—”
“Be quiet, you know.”
“…….”
Um, did I say it too sharply?
I thought about it belatedly, but I didn’t put an apology in my mouth.
I couldn’t afford that—
“Shuitz, don’t fret too much. When the Commander collapses, everyone collapses.”
I didn’t know that I would find solace in the role of Heo.
I smiled bitterly and sighed.
‘Isn’t it too much to ask not to be impatient?’
My plans have already gone awry.
The north, where the enemy is in power, not the south where the ally is located.
If you choose this place, it was thought that it would be possible to stay on the principle that the bottom of the lamp is the darkest.
But how was it in reality?
‘Stubborn bastards.’
If you slow down for a moment, the chase team will catch up soon.
Because of them, we had to go on a forced march for several days, not being able to sleep properly, let alone rest.
“I don’t understand at all. How can we know exactly where we go and follow us…”
Kaislan questioned why Noark’s troops followed us, but I know the answer. .
That’s because I’ve been through it once before.
[I could have missed it if I hadn’t given an extra arm?]
In the labyrinth of Larcas, the dragon slayer used the Karui Priest to track us down.
I’ll probably use a similar method this time.
They are the kind of people who give up things like sacrifices to achieve their goals.
“Parav. How are you feeling right now?”
“Ah, I think it’s still fine…”
The goblin owes a lot to the fact that there were no more deaths by the time they arrived here.
Even if I was resting somehow, if the pursuit team seemed to be nearby, I would have noticed like a ghost.
When I carefully asked if I could go in the other direction after going well, the enemies were ambushing me in front of me.
Ever since I realized that, I’ve been wearing it while walking by my side even when I’m moving.
“Then you can rest a little longer. If anything goes wrong, tell me right away.”
“All right.”
At the same time as he said that, the guy lay down on the floor.
Ha, if he’s like that, the surroundings are really safe. I want to close my eyes even for a moment after I fall down like this.
But…
‘I can’t do that.’
After overcoming his weakness, he gathered the team leaders and held a leadership meeting.
“Carla Kaislan Jun Aquraba. First of all, I’ll say I’m sorry.”
“……?”
“I thought that if I came this far, I would be able to hide out until the closing day, but I was wrong.”
Was it a bit of an abrupt apology?
The team leaders made rather perplexed faces and threw words of consolation one by one.
“I don’t think there’s anything to apologize for.”
“Yes. You can tell just by looking at the pursuit team. Even if we had waited longer for the rescue team there, it would have been difficult for us to last less than a day.”
“More people would have died if it hadn’t been for you.”
“It’s embarrassing, but when I got into this situation, I was relieved that I was lucky that I wasn’t the commander. As I said before, the commander is a being who can never collapse…”
Oh, that makes me feel a little lighter.
Actually, I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately.
Maybe I should have just waited for the rescue team in Deadwood.
A lot of sacrifices . Shouldn’t I have had to go south and get out of the enemy territory even at
the risk of suffering … And…
would
n’t everyone die because of my wrong choice?
But
I shouldn’t turn away from what I have to do.
Even if that causes a bigger rock to press down on my chest
.
”
Kuhm
.
”
“Anyway, that’s why I called you guys to ask for your opinion.”
“Looks like you’ve already made a decision.”
Uh, that’s right.
I’m just thinking about it, but not to the point of making a decision on my own.
That’s why…
” As you all know, even if you stay hidden here, you probably won’t last long.”
Before getting to the main topic, I lay the groundwork.
“If I don’t keep moving, I’ll probably catch up and get surrounded.”
It’s like a shark that can only breathe if it moves forward. .If
you stop complacently, it’s game over.If the siege
is formed in earnest, we will not be able to escape with our exhausted power.
Therefore…
“Where are you going?
” Looking at
it,
I
tasted bitterly .
So,
to put it simply, it was Plan B.
It was an option that
I didn’t want
to choose unless it was the worst-case scenario .
Go back to Ice Rock.”
A hard road for us must be a hard road for them too.
Let’s follow them all the way here.
