Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Chapter 506

Episode 506 Basement 1st Floor (2)

Belzak, Lord of the Abyss.

A hidden field boss that appears when the ninth Lord of Terror is defeated.

‘I wondered if this would happen in the end… but I never thought I would be summoned.’

Through the explorers gathered in front of the portal, only important things were quickly checked.

First of all, Berzak was summoned about an hour ago.

It is said that there will be little damage to the explorers on the first floor, who were worried inwardly.

It’s because many of the explorers on the 1st floor realized that the situation was not serious from the 4th day onwards and headed for the 2nd floor

……

“Yes. That’s right. So we and the 10 clans cooperated and took the explorers from the first floor scattered across the floor to the second floor.”

If there is a person who summons a hierarchical lord whether or not others die, then there are those who save people even if they have nothing to gain.

Most of the explorers gathered in front of this were the ones who rescued the explorers near the portal until the end and came up to the second floor when Bezac was summoned.

“So you don’t have to worry too much, Baron. On the 6th day, I wandered around the 1st floor all day and barely found one person.”

That’s right…

“You did a great job. It couldn’t have been easy.”

“Easy or difficult, someone has to do it. And this is nothing compared to what the baron did.”

On the contrary, I feel a pang of conscience as I see the explorer looking up at me with respectful eyes.

well i’m not that kind of person

Even though I was aware of the possibility of Berzak being summoned, I went up to the third floor to do my job.

But how did this happen again?

“But the fact that you came out from there means that the baron also rescued other explorers, didn’t you?”

Suddenly, a man asked me a question.

Before he could answer this, the explorers burst into exclamations and began to convince themselves.

“Ah, I asked why, and it was like that!.”

“I see… Not only did he take me to the second floor, but he also guided me so that I could adapt!”

“Baron Yandel probably doesn’t need guild achievements unlike us… To think he’d go that far.”

“It’s embarrassing. Actually, I was actually hoping that the guild would officially recognize this rescue act once Belzac was summoned…”

Uh…

“… ”

I just laughed awkwardly without giving any answer.

?The character’s Fame value has increased by +1.?

?The character’s Fame value has increased by +1.?

?The character’s Fame value has increased by +1……?

?……. ?

It didn’t matter what the reputation was, but at least if this misunderstanding spreads, the alibi will be proven.

‘If I can get to the hidden area this way, there will always be kids investigating my whereabouts.’

Of course, this made my conscience a little worse, but I can just ignore it.

You put up with pouring potions on cancer torn flesh?

“Then, we have something to talk about for a while.”

“Ah yes…! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me!”

After clearing up my curiosity, I got away from the group of explorers and had time to discuss with my teammates.

As the situation was the situation, I was curious about the opinions of the members.

And the first among them was Amelia, who is also the spiritual support of our clan.

“Emily, what do you want us to do in the future?”

“…It’s dangerous, but I’m honest with you that it’s a little regretful to give up like this.”

“Then do you think it’s right to break through and go there?”

From the goblin forest portal to the place where you found the tombstone, it takes a little over an hour by sprinting.

Even if Berzac was summoned, it was not something he could not go.

But Amelia cut it off.

“It depends on how certain the method you’re trying to do is. Breaking through might be worth trying if the method works.”

It was an understandable concern.

If the portal doesn’t open after diligently breaking through, you have to go back and forth again.

Proportionate to the increased distance time, the probability of encountering Berzak increases accordingly.

“If you’re sure, can you say you’re in favor of going down?”

“Yeah, you can look at it that way.”

Okay then, Amelia is conditionally in favor…

Then I heard the opinions of the other colleagues.

“I think it’s worth going down even if that method doesn’t work. We’re not who we were back then.”

“I’m like a fairy too! I went up to the third floor and saved it, but isn’t it a waste to give up like this!”

“Me too. Whether it works or not, I think it’s better to take this opportunity to test it out to be sure. If it doesn’t work, next time I won’t waste time.”

Erwen and Einar Bersil agreed unconditionally.

“I… I will follow the will of the captain.”

“Okay, so tell me what you think. No one will say anything. You’re a member of our clan, aren’t you?”

Was the word “member of the clan” valid?

Auyen, who was hesitant, opened his mouth cautiously.

“I… am against it. If it’s Berzak… isn’t it a monster that killed thousands of people even then… If the captain and his wife get hurt, it won’t be a huge loss to humanity—”

no, what else is he talking about?

“Anyway, it’s the opposite.”

“Yes… that’s right. It’s just my opinion, so please let it go through one ear.”

3 for 1 against and 1 conditional for yes.

If you follow the majority, you don’t have to listen to the rest, but first of all, even the last person asked for their opinion.

“

Me?

I don’t know why, but with the old tone.

“Eh, I think either way would be good… Thinking back then, it might be dangerous… But if the portal opens, it’ll be good for you too… Even if it doesn’t open… I wonder if there is any meaning in what I tried… Uh, should I say that either way will be helpful for you…? .”

What the hell is he trying to say?

I was just asking to comment.

“So you mean abstaining?”

“…That’s not it…”

“Or? Tell me straight up. I just want to hear what you think.”

When I said it strongly with the meaning that you don’t have to notice, Misha avoided my eyes and finally expressed her opinion.

“I think the way down would be better……. If only that way was clear…”

Simply put, it means that Misha will also vote for the conditional approval. But I don’t know why he’s glancing at Amelia.

‘……Is it true that he expressed his opinion?’

For some reason, I had such a question, but I decided not to ask it here.

He will also need time to adapt.

“Okay then, three votes in favor, so the decision is made.”

“What? Mr. Yandel’s opinion?”

“The clan’s will is my will.”

Conversely, my will may become the clan’s will.

Clan leaders are counted as seven votes when voting.

Oh, for reference, there were six votes when there were six in total, but this time it increased to seven.

Anyway, isn’t this important…

“Okay then, let’s go.”

Beyond, an unknown field flowing with milk and honey awaits us.

…maybe.

***

?You have entered the Crystal Cave on the 1st floor.?

***

The Crystal Cave descended through the reverse portal.

Originally, this was a dark area where crystals did not emit light, so I did not feel any change as soon as I came down.

But the moment I lit the torch in my helmet.

Fire-!

You can see the thick black fog around you, telling you that the first floor is different from usual.

?Field Effect – Abyssal Fog is applied.?

?All effects are disabled.?

?Magic efficiency is reduced to 1/4.?

?Monsters exposed to Abyssal Fog evolve into superior beings. .?

Huh, it’s been a while since this fog.

At that time, I really thought that this fog would become my grave.

I never thought I’d come back on my own.

“What are you doing? Follow me well. You may step on a trap, so just follow me.”

After a while to adjust to the darkness around me, I started running while leading the way. It was a tactic that only I could perform as a guide and a tank at the same time.

Just like it was on that day.

Because this is where those who lead die.

It is impossible to detect the Abyssal Goblin’s traps with the naked eye or magic.

Just like this.

rattle.

The moment I heard the sound of something stepping on the bare floor.

?The character stepped on a [random trap].?

The trap is activated and a random skill of 5th grade or lower is cast.

And this

…….

Well, judging from the damage and shape of the body, it must be a 6th grade skill, [Tail Flame].

“Is Yandel okay?”

To be honest, it’s pretty stingy.

Compared to that time, the overall specs are much higher, but there is only one stat that has been reduced in reverse.

‘I need to set up exorcism quickly.’

By erasing the essence of the Manticore, the ‘exorcism’ has decreased even more.

At least it was possible to fill in a large part of it by using [Giant], but it doesn’t work because the active skill is sealed here.

“Never mind. It’s only an hour away.”

just have to endure

“Behel—laaaaaaa!”

Under the protection of the ancestral spirits, run through passages full of invisibility traps.

Still, there was one thing that was better than that.

Kakak-!

The skill that comes in as a physical deal is really itchy.

Magic skills were more painful than then, so in the end I was a good Sammy.

Tadada dat-!

Step on the trap and run and run again.

Even if you are not thirsty, periodically pour a bottle of potion into your mouth.

However, there is no such thing as getting better as before.

The higher the stat, the lower the total amount of recovery with a bottle of

potion

.

“Due to the passive skill [Hero’s Path], all resistance and resistance levels increase.

”

Could you speed it up a bit more?

With that thought in mind, I hear my colleagues muttering from behind the car as I spur on my feet.

“That day… I think I know why he became so famous.”

“Yes. I’ve heard about it too… but I didn’t expect it to be this much…”

Amelia and Versil, who had only heard about the day’s events in words, were looking at me and taking off their school.

‘Well, it seems like they’re giving compliments, but…’

To be honest, I was a bit embarrassed.

At that time, there were no other options for living.

And above all, I had the ability to do that.

[Everyone is crazy! I think someone will admit that!! uh? A hero?]

[Nimiral… Still I’m sorry In the end, someone has to do it.]

Unlike those guys who died while stepping on the trap in front of them.

I didn’t have to worry about stepping on a trap and dying.

That’s why I was able to step on the trap more courageously than anyone else and move on.

like right now

“The character’s HP is below 40%.”

His head started to go blank, but he opened his eyes wide to keep his concentration intact. Well, it’s not just the Abyss Goblin that we need to worry about right now.

‘Berzak… fortunately seems to be far away.’

So far, I haven’t met the ‘Watcher of the Abyss’, which acts as the eyes of Bezac.

That means he’s a long way away right now.

“Hey… why don’t we come down an hour before lockdown, test it out, and if that doesn’t work, use the closed-emission phenomenon to get back to the city?”

It was Versil who belatedly expressed his opinion as if he had suddenly come up with such an idea, but in fact, he had thought about it all before.

If you time it right, you don’t have to make round trips.

But…

“If that’s the case, it would have been more difficult. By that time, there wouldn’t be many people left on the first floor. You would have had to meet him inevitably. Yandel must have thought about that as well before making the decision.”

Yes Amelia, you know.

That I didn’t just come down without thinking about it.

?The character’s HP is less than 30%.?

?The character’s HP is less than 20%.?

?Due to the passive skill [Hero’s Path], the amount of increase in all resistances and tolerance values reaches the maximum.

” when it started to become effective.

We reached our destination after a sprint that took a little over an hour.

I lost a lot of stamina, but other than that, there were no major problems.

I haven’t even met Berzac.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that all of my colleagues except for me are in the best condition.

But…

‘Nimiral.’

Just because there was no problem in the process, there is no guarantee that the result will be the same.

The problem was where we arrived.

“…Hey Baron Yandel?”

“……It’s a giant! A giant led the members and came here!”

“Did you find a way to open the door?”

What is it, why are there so many people? At first glance, it seems that there are dozens of people.

Of course, I didn’t understand at all because I ran hard thinking that no one would be there.

A place where even the small fish were found before the third day.

Even the wall was smashed before leaving, so of course I didn’t expect it to be a secret.

But anyway, is that so?

‘What are all of you doing here since even Belzak was summoned?’

I tried to hide my despair and asked the man closest to me.

“There you are bald.”

“I mean me?”

“What are you all doing here?”

The man answered with a tilt of his head as if he had heard a strange question.

“Are you waiting for the portal to open? You never know who might catch the Lord of the Abyss. Either that or it might be opening right before it closes!”

“…What if Belzak appears here?”

“I shouldn’t have to take that much risk! It’s about finding a hidden area!”

I was speechless at the words that sounded so innocent.

“As Baron Yandel knows…….”

“…….”

“Isn’t that an exploration!”

For the first time in my life, I felt skeptical about the job of an explorer.

Although I always thought that there were many people with missing screws.

“I’m sorry to say this, but…Does the baron know how to open the portal?”

I hope there are so many crazy people.
