Chapter 271: Labyrinth of Heresy 1
7 teams of elite warriors united and were progressing to capture the monster nest with intense momentum.
We, the usual party members, weren’t babysitting the Aligerous Tribe for the first time in a while, so we were clearing the place very fast, probably because we were able to move freely.
?I wonder what those two Beast Kings would do if an astral-type monster were to appear.?
?W-well, we gave them weapons that magic power can flow through easily, so wouldn’t they be fine??
The two Beast Kings we were referring to were, of course, King Ryvar and King Deega. Their teams have no mages. They were given a somewhat larger quantity of Heal Potions, but in the coming dungeon where undead are expected to appear, I think it would be impossible to get by with just fighting spirit. Let’s believe they can use magic swords.
Incidentally, the Oni Tribe has skills that can deal damage to Astral-type monsters while clad in fighting spirit.
When we cleared the forest, the six rulers leading their nation’s teams who looked at the entrance of the dungeon were surprised.
?To think a church all the way out here is the entrance of a dungeon……?
?For something like this to be created with the efforts of Humans……no, they are no longer human.?
?It’s really stupid, isn’t it? The human supremacists of the Light God Faith had stopped being human.?
Sophia and Maria’s thoughts directed at my shocked mutters were different, as they appeared to be disgusted by the spectacle before us.
?Let’s go! Don’t fall behind!?
???Ou!???
?Tch, we’re leaving too!?
???Ou!???
King Ryvar led his subordinates into the entrance of the dungeon, opened the door of the church and entered.
Then, not wanting to fall behind, King Deega followed right after.
?Iruma-dono, I thank you for the equipment you provided. It had a remarkable difference to what we have been using until now.?
?Iruma-dono, we also appreciate the potions and expensive Barrier MDs for the camp.?
As we were taking a breather while we looked at the entrance of the dungeon, Queen Fraal and her close aide Ryuka-san thanked me for supplying equipment and much needed tools and potions.
?Iruma-dono, I would like to say thank you. This is the first time a weapon had fit in my hand like this. It can be after this mess is resolved, but if possible, I would like you to make a weapon with the best materials, Iruma-dono.?
It was then that King Gandalf approached. The halberd made for him was too heavy for a normal person to use, but it was just right for him, and he seemed to have taken quite the liking to it.
?Gandalf, leave it at that. Iruma-dono is troubled by this.?
?Oh, sorry about that. It is rare to come across fine quality weapons in the Demon Continent. I had gotten excited without realizing it.?
?Well, it’s not that I don’t understand what you feel. My Estoc and Main Gauche and Ryuka’s saber were also magnificent weapons.?
?I’m happy you say that.?
?Your Majesty, the other rulers have gone ahead.?
King Gandalf was called out to by the voice of a man of the Devil Clan who was likely his subordinate. Before we knew it, King Guzhr and King Jairu had also entered the dungeon.
?Fumu, you’re right. Shouldn’t we traverse this dungeon and destroy the core first??
?Indeed. We must eliminate the nuisances such as those that command groups of monsters in this continent which already has harsh environments even under normal circumstances.?
After saying so, King Gandalf and Queen Fraal checked their luggage and proceeded to go to the entrance of the dungeon.
?Okay then, should we head out too??
???Yes.???
?Okaaay! Master!?
Upon stepping into the dungeon, just like when the cathedral in the capital of Sydnia had turned into an otherworldified dungeon, the first floor was cathedralesque. But compared to the dungeon we had already gone through, the miasma felt stronger here.
?……the miasma is dense. It’s a relief that we distributed amulets to everyone.?
?Indeed. It is clear that the amulet would be very effective.?
Considering what we could prepare when we capture this dungeon, we, of course, distributed enough amulets for the teams of all six countries. I don’t know what effects the mind and body would have when exposed to strong miasma at extended periods of time. So, while it isn’t a prevention, I thought to make something that could cope with it.
?Kaede, do you know the location of the other teams??
?Hmmmm, I know the Queen and Big Blue are near, but…… I don’t know where the others are.?
?Just as expected inside the dungeon, our searching range is much narrower.?
?We can somewhat tell from the traces of battle, so let’s search while avoiding those areas.?
?Understood.?
We don’t know which ruler is leading which team, but if it hasn’t been much time since the battle, I can somewhat tell from the remaining magic power what kind of battle happened in this place. We proceeded to move through the paths that the other teams hadn’t been through as much as possible.
