Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 562
562Tuesday Destination (2)
Jerome St. Red.
If you get rid of him, all your problems will likely be solved..
Isn’t there a saying that the flapping of a butterfly’s wings can create a typhoon in the distance? As he is a key character in precognitive dreams, there will be a big change when he disappears..
but…….
‘how do i get rid of it?’
The method is the problem..
The plan to secretly take him to a dark place and kill him with his colleagues is close to impossible..
Not only did he not die in vain like that,…….
[He wouldn't have died. I'll probably wake up in the palace.]
During my past travels, I saw.
The scene where Jerome's body, who died like a fly at the hands of Auril Gavis, is broken into small pieces of light and flutters around..
There was also some speculation about the identity of that ability..
‘Iblus.’
8A level 2 monster that appears as a guardian of one of the floor cracks..
And one of his active skills is…….
‘[pagan altar].’
When using a skill, an 'altar' is created at the location, and this was one of the few 'resurrections' in [Dungeon & Stone]..
If you die, you will be resurrected at the altar..
Please note that the 'Altar' can only be created once, and is destroyed when used a total of three times..
So, let me say this again:…….
‘Even if you assassinate them, if you return to the city, you will be considered a traitor and be executed..’
The presence or absence of this skill must have been a big factor in the royal family's decision to entrust the position of commander of the exploration force to Jerome St. Red in the first place..
Even in the worst case scenario, it is possible to survive alone and return to the city with information..
‘under… Why do I have that kind of skill?.’
It's a situation where you can't help but say, "Why are we playing games together?".
From then on, I thought about a way to get rid of Jerome St. Red, but I couldn't think of a way to do it..
Rather, I only pictured in my mind a scene where I tried to get rid of him, but my attempt failed, and my precognitive dream came true..
‘really… It didn't happen like this?’
Maybe if I just stay still, nothing will happen and it will pass by..
By the time those thoughts started to bloom.
smart.
There were two knocks and words were heard from beyond the door..
“Come out, Yandel. It's shift time.”
Okay, let's get some work done first..
***
one day, two days, three days…….
Time passes like a flowing stream and the rainy season is already over..
This time, as usual, a rainbow appeared for a moment and then disappeared, and the exploration team's recording crystal ball took a good picture of the scene and stored it..
And after taking a break for about half a day for the wizards who worked hard during the rainy season,.
“I will enter the island now.!”
After spending several days on the ship, we landed on land and began exploring in earnest..
Just as Jeju Island is called Samdado because it has many wind, women, and stones, there were two things in abundance on Chonjang Island right after the rainy season..
“A group of monsters are found ahead.!”
“It is a variant object!”
monster.
And tens of thousands of magic stones scattered throughout the island..
“If this scene becomes known, there will be an uproar outside..”
“With a magic stone of this magnitude, shouldn't the royal family control it? This means that you can periodically obtain this amount of magic stones every month.…….”
“haha. That's the same from our perspective. Is it possible for the royal family to be this angry? How much money do you make at checkpoints?.”
In fact, even Jerome, who said he was not interested in magic stones due to the overwhelming wealth, hardened his expression and cautioned..
“Anyone who touches it secretly will be severely punished, so the wizards in charge of collection must pay close attention to management to avoid making any mistakes.!”
Well, they said they didn't come here to make money..
Still, the enormous amount of magic stones boosted the morale of the exploration force..
Usually, when the royal family sends troops to the labyrinth, it was customary to ask them to distribute the magic stone income on their own..
“I need to be more proactive in this mission..”
“The unit you receive may vary. I already had some magic tools I wanted to buy, so it turned out well..”
The crew members are happy and dreaming of a happy future..
However, Jerome focused more on his mission even after seeing the magic stones on the ground. You work hard to collect things in your path, but proceed toward your destination along the shortest route.…….
“Baron, this is the right place.?”
“It is certainly.”
So we arrived at the entrance to the village chief..
However, no matter how much I looked under the tree where the entrance was hidden, all I could see was blocked ground..
“What happened? Have they noticed our presence??”
“well. I don't know about that yet. Originally, it seemed like only when the rainy season was over and the number of monsters had diminished did they come up to land and make a large circle around the island to pick up magical stones..”
“Hmm, then I guess I'll just have to wait..”
“Moreover, even if they notice our presence, they will have no choice but to come up at some point. Because they make magic stones their stock..”
This means that unless you want to starve to death, you can't just hide under the village forever..
“Form an encirclement formation centered around this tree.!”
Afterwards, Jerome surrounded the entrance to the village and issued an order to wait indefinitely. And on the other hand, a special team was formed to collect unclaimed magic stones scattered all over the island..
Here, the special task force consists of an agile explorer with fast movement speed and a wizard who can quickly collect magic stones.…….
“mister… You have to stay well until I come.……?”
“Don't worry. I will take good care of Tercia..”
Amelia and Erwen were also selected from our group 4..
I wanted to stop it somehow, but I couldn't overcome the commanding authority of the commander..
The cause was there too..
“It's a different matter from taking care of the Baron's convenience. Since you are temporarily part of our exploration force, we cannot give you different missions..”
Every time Erwen and Amelia went out to do special work, my heart pounded, but nothing happened until they collected all the magic stones on the island over about two days..
‘Well, tomorrow will be the third day since the rainy season ended.…….’
Is it because the monsters are slowly decreasing??
There was a period of time surrounding the tree and waiting for them to appear..
The members of the exploration group were enjoying peace for the first time in a long time, but to me, that time felt like the calm before the storm..
“Mr. Yandel, why are you looking at me so intently??”
“Can't you see it? I'm on guard.”
When I answered with my eyes fixed on the tree, Raven chuckled..
Well, I'm not making fun of people..
“So why did you come here? The wizards' seats must be over there..”
“There's nothing to do anyway. Research on materials obtained from the library has been completed..”
“It's over? Did you get anything??”
“no. It's the opposite. I finally accepted that there was nothing to be gained from these data and ended the study..”
“……Right.”
I don't know if it was true that she came because she was bored, but Raven came next to me and chattered about the things she wanted to say..
“Perhaps the greatest discovery in the library may be the summoning book itself. Like the origin of the name. The characteristics of monsters that could not be discovered through any research were clearly written down.?”
Yeah, I thought you would like that the best..
“what? What about that sullen expression? How great of an achievement is this? I don't know, but if we go out, academia will be in chaos.!”
“……What does it have to do with me if something goes wrong in academia??”
I answered in a grumpy tone, and Raven seemed to sense that I was not having fun, so she changed the topic..
“by the way… They said they were monsters calling themselves humans.?”
“suddenly?”
“It wasn't all of a sudden, I was curious about it from the moment I heard about it. What kind of entities are they? Oh, I'm also curious about the village chief who claimed to be a dragon knight. Is it really you? That being said, there are many things I want to ask. It's hard to find records from those days anymore.…….”
I think we brought up a common topic, but it still wasn't fun to chat with..
Come to think of it, it was always like that with him..
Every time I talk, does it seem like the words get longer??
“Raven… … ! behind, behind……!”
“……!”
“There's nothing?”
“……?”
Raven, who was startled and turned around, belatedly recognized the situation and clenched her fists with an angry expression..
Well, what are you going to do with those little hands?.
“……it's annoying. Become a baron or something. I'm a child?”
“Become the vice-captain of the 3rd magic corps. Isn't that too naive??”
“……I'm a fool for worrying about people like this.”
“It's not a human, it's a barbarian. It's a sensitive part for me, so please pay attention to it.—.”
“ah! it's annoying! That's Okay. I'm leaving now.”
Soon, Raven huffed and returned to her position, and I watched with a chuckle..
I could say it was a fairly productive conversation..
Especially in that the tension has become a little less and it has become more pleasant..
He's always had a taste for teasing.—.
“Everything, Captain.!!”
…huh?
When I turn my head in the direction I heard the sound, I see Auyen running, even sweating profusely..
For a moment, I felt arrogant..
“Big trouble! I'm in big trouble!!”
What on earth is going on?.
Did something happen??
No, but the entrance to the village is here.?
Could it be that there is another entrance??
At a time when many such speculations were swirling in my head, unexpected news came from the mouth of Auyen Rocklob..
“Tersia! Tersia is trying to kill the wizard in the exploration group! please stop me!”
“……what?”
I quickly ran to the place where the incident occurred, and I could see it from there..
“Don’t stop me!! I'm going to kill you. I'm going to kill you. I'm going to kill you... … !! I'm going to kill you……!”
Erwen shouts as if she has lost her mind..
And Amelia is hugging Erwen tightly as if to stop him..
“……Sigh!”
A wizard who was so scared that he hid behind a knight.
And a group of knights with swords drawn as if to protect the wizard..
“…….”
When I saw that scene, I was frozen in a daze..
I don't know the details, but for some reason.
“Head…….”
Erwen had short hair..
***
The whole story of the incident was simple..
Half of Temporary Team 4, including Erwen, were on perimeter guard duty..
Meanwhile, a monster approached from an ambiguous location, and a battle was fought with the first team that shared the border..
But the problem here is…….
“Poetry, mistake! Isn't it a mistake! As a result, no one was hurt……!”
1Joe's magician calculated the magic's trajectory incorrectly, and the wind magic ended up heading towards Erwen..
A blow from our side at an unexpected timing..
Fortunately, I was able to avoid it by quickly bending down, but instead, the fluttering hair was cut off..
Damn it.
“Don't get hurt... No……?”
“Tongue, after blood… … ! Calm down! Don't you know that this is also harmful to the Baron?!”
“Yandel! Do something! If he comes, hurry up and don't stop him.……!”
I quickly came to my senses after hearing Amelia’s words..
Even though Erwen changed her hair style to short hair, isn't there going to be an execution ceremony happening here right now?.
First, let’s calm the situation down and think about it..
This was the car I was approaching with that thought in mind..
“Uncle… I came……?”
Erwen, who was looking around, saw me, screamed, covered her face, and collapsed..
“no! Look, don’t look.!”
uh… First of all, was it successful in calming it down??
While thinking that, I turned my head and looked somewhere else, as Erwen requested..
Sasasak.
Something blue moves between the dense trees..
“uh……?”
What am I looking at??
The entrance to the village is definitely over there.?
I felt dizzy for a moment, but my mouth was already open and I was spitting out what I needed to say right away..
“It's a surprise attack!!!”
They came out of town.
