Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 375
375Hwa Treasure Hunter (3)
Guardian of the Green Coal Mine, King Slime.
If you consume it, you can use it well until the middle of the water..
Well, even if it did come out, there would be no one among us who would drink this essence.…….
Even though it didn't come out in the first place.
「Killed King Slime. EXP +4」
「Guardian kill bonus. EXP +3」
I tasted bitterly as I watched the king slime disappear into a cloud of light..
“Wow, nothing really shows up.?”
Now that I have the integer, I was hoping to get at least a number item..
How come no cracks appear??
The individual drop rate would be 33.3%.…….
‘…Come to think of it, I didn't get any clean water on the way here..’
Actually, I was a little bit excited about that..
I wonder if the guardian will spit out a good number item at the end..
“Still, one whole number did not come out?.”
I burst out laughing at Amelia’s words that seemed to soothe me..
What kind of essence is that? It's just trash.
9Grade monster, slime.
When eaten, physical stats such as bone strength, physical resistance, strength, and agility decrease, and only stats with low combat value such as poison resistance, intuition, and digestion are piled up..
But the skills are just the same.
It may be useful depending on the situation, but…….
In general, it is not worth taking that penalty, so it is considered to be the worst value essence among the 9th grade..
Oh, by the way, Jeong Soo caught some random mobsters while hunting king slime..
‘Shit, if something like this comes out, don’t come out at all..’
Then there will still be hope that the jackpot will hit next time..
“Man, a portal has opened over there! Are you leaving right away??”
“Of course.”
I led my colleagues and headed to the portal..
There was absolutely no hesitation in my steps..
The name and color are cracks, but what came out was only slime essence..
What the hell is this fucking room??
「1You have entered the Crystal Cave..」
Let's go out quickly.
If I stay any longer, I'll get scabies due to bad luck..
***
After breaking through the crack, there was no hesitation..
Since there was nothing to do on the lower floors, we headed upstairs and reached the target floor on the 26th day..
「6I entered the Great Sea on the floor.」
Raimia, the Island of Beginnings.
It wasn't crowded with explorers and soldiers like the last time I came. And this also applies to the warships that filled the coastline..
It was natural that the expeditionary force heading to the Dark Continent would depart on the 25th..
In fact, that's why I arrived a day late on purpose..
“Okay then, let's go to the coast..”
There was no reason to waste time on an empty island, so I went straight to the coast..
And the ship that was in subspace was taken out..
Its appearance was different from previous ships that had no sails and had to be rowed..
‘Okay, it has to be like this to be called a boat..’
A vessel of similar size and shape to fishing boats commonly seen in Korea..
There is a large square sail in the center of the ship, and there is also a horsepower propulsion device at the bottom of the rear, so just inserting a magic stone can dramatically increase speed in a hurry..
Simply put, it means that it is a ship that can cross windless areas as long as you have enough magic stones..
‘Actually, I wonder if it would be possible to go out to a windless area without a navigator.…….’
Soon all three of us were on the boat, and Amelia stood at the helm, swallowing her saliva..
But maybe that appearance was a bit untrustworthy??
Erwen cautiously expressed his anxiety..
“But, is she not even a navigator, so can she properly drive this ship?……?”
“He said he has experience driving a small boat in the past, so he will be much better than me, who only has experience with oars. It is said that he learned the basics of operating a ship while purchasing it..”
“Hmm…….”
“That's right, Amelia?”
“…Don't talk to me. Because I'm thinking about it.”
“…….”
Wow, this suddenly makes me anxious.?
Amelia, who was holding the helm of the ship and looking serious as if she was simulating it in her head, began giving orders in earnest..
“first… You have to row to get off the island. That way I could ride the wind.”
“there was……?”
“If you are dissatisfied, you—”
“No, there isn't. Do as you're told.”
“…….”
Instead of telling Amelia, who was clearly a novice, to leave the boat behind, I faithfully followed the instructions..
Of course, I had no intention of rowing too hard..
Why did you pay so much money to buy this boat??
Slurp-!
When the magic stone was inserted into the tube connected to the magic propulsion device, the ship began to move forward..
“…Tsk!”
Amelia seemed surprised by the speed, which was faster than expected, but quickly regained her composure and turned the key to change direction..
and…….
“Yes, now! sail! spread the sails!”
As soon as the sails were spread, the ship began to move forward in the wind..
Huh, okay, I guess it works out somehow..
“The direction is?”
“Don't worry we're heading east.”
“is it…….”
Amelia exhaled as if relieved by my words..
Meanwhile, both hands were holding the key tightly..
It looked a little fresh..
A kid who didn't even flinch when killing people gets this nervous about something like this..
“I can see it slowly.”
After sailing east for about 15 minutes, an island was visible at the edge of the horizon..
The island located the closest to the starting point after Farune Island to the west, where a fierce battle took place with Stormgush..
Gurkha Island.
Actually, there was no particular reason to stop by this island..
The monsters that appear on this island are of low grade, and all of them also appear on lower levels..
The supply and demand of experience points ended a long time ago..
but…….
‘There's nothing we can do because there's no navigator on the ship..’
With our navigation skills, it was nearly impossible to proceed in a straight line to the desired destination, so we had no choice but to proceed step by step, visiting the islands one by one..
Well, there were other reasons too..
“…Uncle, are you okay??”
“…….”
Phew, this fucking seasickness..
It definitely seems a little better than before, but it still makes me feel sick and I can't stand it..
“Schuitz, if you are tired, you can rest for a while and then start..”
“please.”
Soon after anchoring the boat at the shore, we took a short break..
Still, this is the good thing about the Barbarian body..
Even though the motion sickness is severe, it gets better in 10 minutes..
“Now then, let's set sail again..”
After recovering my condition, I went through a series of procedures and started sailing again..
The next destination is Anos, the second island on the eastern route..
“It will take about three hours to get there by boat, but you can get there properly.?”
“…Don't worry. I said you just have to keep moving in the northeast direction..”
“Who is it??”
“…in the book.”
Erwen, who had never participated in such a reckless voyage before, showed an untrustworthy look on her face again..
However, Amelia was quite good at navigation, and after about three hours, an island appeared in the distance..
Amelia clenched her fists..
“You found the right one.”
“But why is the island visible from the east and not from the front??”
“…That's within the margin of error..”
Cancer, this is within the margin of error..
Soon Amelia turned her bow, and before long we arrived at Anos Island..
Unlike Gurkha Island, which I skipped, there was business on this island..
There are no hidden pieces or hidden treasures, but you must gain experience points that you have not received yet..
Also, since the weather is getting dark, I plan to spend the night here..
But before that…….
“WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-!”
Let's empty our stomach first..
***
「Killed the Raffle Monkey. EXP +3」
「You have killed the War Snake. EXP +4」
「Killed Nigel Fencer. EXP +4」
「You have defeated Belgaro. EXP +5」
「Killed the Black Tree…….」
「…….」
***
Anos Island, where 99% of the island, excluding the coast, is jungle..
After camping on the coast for one night, we began exploring in earnest the next day..
By the time I finished traveling around the entire island and collecting all the experience points, it was getting dark again, so I had to camp for one more night..
‘Tsk, I thought I could catch everything and get to the next island in half a day..’
The monster hunted last was largely responsible for the twist in the schedule. Even though I went around the entire island, I couldn't see it, so I had to search until nightfall..
“Man, aren’t the stars very pretty?—”
Drurr.—!
“You're sleeping…….”
After resting for one more night, we set sail early the next morning and headed to the next island. Fortunately, we arrived at the next island properly this time..
And the process continues…….
“This is already the seventh island..”
“The name was Pione Island.?”
We arrived at the seventh island of the eastern route in ten days..
To be honest, it was quite surprising.
It's like getting here safely with a navigator who only knows how to move forward, stop, and park..
‘I thought I might pass it by at least once..’
Is driving a boat easier than you think??
With that in mind, these days, I am watching Amelia drive a boat and learning from her side by side..
I'm slowly getting used to the seasickness now..
“Wow, just like I heard, the island is really pretty..”
“Erwen, is this your first time here too??”
“yes. I usually passed it by..”
“Well, if you're unlucky, it's just a waste of time..”
Pione, the seventh island of the eastern route.
It is often referred to as a treasure island among explorers..
Compared to islands with mountains in the center, the ground is relatively flat, and the area is small enough to circle around the island in about 3 hours..
For reference, only one type of level 4 monster appears here.…….
“Are you going to just pass by here too??”
“As the day slowly fades away, I only spend one night.”
Erwen looked somewhat happy after hearing my answer..
Well, it’s safe to say that there are no monsters on the island itself..
If you meet a monster, you can think of it as winning the lottery..
“mister! There's quite a bit of time left until night, so let's take a look around the island together! yes?”
“…If it's that much.”
“It could be dangerous, so I'll go with you..”
After landing on the island, I put the ship into subspace and walked around to learn the terrain..
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
The cool sea breeze caressing your body.
A wide open field and a field full of colorful flowers..
“Not bad.”
When I let out my sentiments without realizing it, Erwen smiled brightly as if he agreed..
“Hehe, right?”
“Yes, it's open on all sides, so if a robber approaches while you're sleeping, you'll be able to spot it easily..”
“……yes?”
Erwen tilted his head for a moment as if he didn't understand, but this was an important point..
This island is not called Treasure Island for nothing..
Even if most of the top explorers participated in the war and went to the 7th floor, the possibility of there being no explorers on this island is close to zero..
This island is the only place, excluding the cracks, where you can obtain number items..
“Enough of the reconnaissance, let's set up camp over there. There is a place I saw earlier..”
“Ah, yes…….”
As we are all seasoned explorers, this time too, camping preparations were completed quickly, and we set Amelia's alter ego on watch and went to sleep..
And how long has it passed?.
“Schuitz, wake up!.”
Amelia shook me awake..
I rubbed my sleepy eyes and checked my surroundings, and before I knew it, Erwen was up and taking out his bow..
There was only one case that came to mind.
That would make a lot more sense than encountering monsters on this island..
“How many people?”
I asked only the information I needed to confirm, omitting unnecessary conversations, and Amelia also gave a short answer..
“fifteen.”
“By clan.”
An uninvited guest came by at night..
