Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 62
62angry cabin (1)
“Hurry up and move.”
I left in a hurry.
After all that hard work, I hunted Cannivaro in 5 minutes, so where would I have time to rest?.
“So is it okay now??”
“I rested a bit and I think I'll survive. Thank you. But how much did I sleep??”
“3It must have been about an hour..”
It's a bitch.
In fact, no matter how long it lasts, it will probably be around an hour..
but…….
“Well, did you sleep that long? Somehow…….”
placebo in technical terms.
Those who believe that way will be more helpful for their mental and physical health..
Well, now the problem was me.
“Bjorn, you don't look good..”
Misha woke up with a sigh and no longer fell behind when moving..
However, my speed actually slowed down..
It's a natural thing to do.
Just because natural regenerative power is high, it doesn’t mean fatigue goes away..
“I'll carry you on my back, so why not get some sleep??”
No, I mean, thank you for your words.…….
It should sound like a horse.
“Okay, it's worth it..”
Of course it's hard.
If you just lie down with your feet stretched out and close your eyes, you will be able to fall asleep in just one second..
but…….
“Pick up the pace a little more.”
There is no choice this time either..
As a result of a cool-headed analysis of my current condition,.
Even if I held on stubbornly, I decided that there were only a few more hours left. After that, your mind and body won't be able to handle it..
so that…….
“Speed up?”
“Yeah, that's the only way..”
You need to find a safe zone when your physical strength can withstand it..
It is randomly generated in the Witch's Forest at regular intervals and lasts for 8 hours..
Field effects are canceled there, and monsters do not appear..
In other words, you can sleep safely..
“But what if I can't find it??”
Well, that would make things worse..
But the last time I found a safe zone was two days ago, right?.
At this point, it might appear once more..
‘I don't know, but I think he's lucky.…….’
It was the same the last time I found a safe zone..
I whined that my leg hurt, so I took a short break, but in the meantime, a safe zone was created right next to me..
“Misha, you take the lead from now on..”
“inside, lumen?”
“Just go where you want to go. Isn’t there a way to know it properly anyway?.”
I'm not a superstitious person, but I put Misha in the lead just in case. She moved quickly, killing only the first-tier mobs she encountered..
How long has it been since then?.
“Uh, huh? Bjorn! Look over there! That's not it?”
“…I guess that's right.”
Is this the law of what will happen??
Surprisingly, in less than 30 minutes we found an unusual tree..
It looked similar to other trees, but a purple glow was emanating from its bark..
Proof that it is a medium leading to a safe zone..
“Good job. Missha.”
“Hehe! I can praise you more!”
What does he say again?.
After patting his head as if to say he had done well, I walked up to the tree..
And with Misha, I folded my hands over the shell..
***
「The character enters the witch's hut.」
***
The moment I put my hand on the tree.
Purple fog swirls around.
Soon, a warm wind reminiscent of spring blows, dispersing the fog that was covering all directions..
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-!
Eventually, when all the fog disappeared.
The gloomy and gloomy scene of the forest was nowhere to be seen..
The floor was a lawn with wild flowers in full bloom..
The dry thorn trees, covered only with rotten vines, were full of abundant leaves..
“Bjorn! Look at this! Aren’t the flowers so pretty??”
Uh, yeah.
But I saw that last time too…….
“Don't do anything useless, just go in and rest..”
“Hmm, I guess someone is a barbarian without romance.!”
romance? I only look for things like that when I can afford them..
Even if you had a romance right before you starved to death, to others it was just a plight or a self-deception..
It's good-.
I left behind Misha, who was strangely tense, and opened the door to the central cabin..
One bookshelf, dining table, carpet, stove.
Contrary to the name, Witch's Hut, there was nothing special about the interior..
An ordinary cabin that anyone can imagine..
‘Still, I think it would have been nice if there was Raven or Dwalkie..’
Wizards like these unusual spaces.
There are books on the bookshelf, so I guess I checked those first when I arrived..
But I am a barbarian.
And in a very exhausted state..
dump-
So I went straight to the bed and collapsed..
And then I buried my face in the pillow and muttered..
“This time you sleep in the chair.”
“Ah, I understand! You must be tired, so hurry up and rest in peace..”
Because of my physical limitations, Misha was sent to the rocking chair I slept in last time..
Ta-da-da-da-da, ta-da-ta-ta.
As I closed my eyes, I could hear the sound of wood burning in the fireplace. Before she knew it, Misha had also sat down, and her chair was creaking regularly..
Squeak, squeal.
“…Well done, Bjorn.”
Consciousness gradually faded away.
***
Is it because I'm very tired??
I had a dream for the first time in a while.
I was at work like any other day..
I was doing administrative work, and when I got off work, my ex-girlfriend came to meet me..
…She was wearing black stockings..
Anyway, we went to my room, ordered chicken together, and did our own thing..
I played a game.
The child read a book quietly in a corner.
Such a comfortable silence continued..
When it was time to sleep, we naturally hugged each other and fell asleep..
that was the whole dream.
As soon as I realized that this was all just a dream, I was thrown back to reality..
A small cabin I found while wandering through the witch’s forest..
that old bed.
The gigantic body of a barbarian filled the space..
When you wake up from a sweet sleep, you must lead this monster-like body and face real monsters in order to survive.—
this was my reality.
‘…So let's do what we have to do.’
It seemed like I wouldn't be able to sleep anymore anyway, so I turned my head and checked the stove..
The wood fire that was burning brightly before I went to bed had lost its power and was almost going out..
That means this cabin is closing soon..
I also checked my watch to check my pure sleep time..
‘Did you still sleep for close to 7 hours?.’
It was a little surprising.
There was no alarm, but my body woke up on its own at such an appropriate time..
“…….”
I force my eyes to close and look at the ceiling..
As I slowly wake up, a strong headache blooms in the back of my head..
It's like your brain is whining that it needs more sleep..
If I go along with that weak heart, there is no bottom or bottom, so I raised my upper body..
I don't know why……
‘When did this come up again??’
Misha was sleeping soundly, with his body on top of me and his back resting on my back..
Even drooling.
He seems to be quite comfortable and is making a steady, grunting breathing sound..
‘Was the chair uncomfortable??’
I lifted Misha's head and roughly rolled it to the side, then stood up from the bed..
Waking him up early will help control his condition, but for now, let him sleep a little longer..
Duduuk, duduuk-
I stretched and relaxed my stiff body..
And then go outside the cabin and bask in the sun..
To be honest, it was quite a change..
‘…Was that why Misha liked flowers??’
When you think about it that way, you can understand Missha's sensibility, but it's still hard to empathize with her..
It's not that it's wrong, it's just a matter of taste..
It feels like vitamin D is being synthesized when exposed to sunlight, but flowers don't even have the power to self-hypnotize..
Placebos are less effective.
By the way, let’s try to wake him up now..
“Misha, wake up.”
“Ugh, just 5 minutes…….”
“Wake up, it's time to get out of here soon..”
“Well, until then.…….”
What do you say, he.
Since I was so sleepy that I couldn't think rationally, I forced myself to lift him by the waist..
And shook it up and down.
“Argh! Argh! Ah, I understand! I woke up! So stop!!”
“That's right.”
“Ignorant barbarian senile!!”
I should have woken up when that happened..
I handed the canteen to Misha, who was grinning..
I only grumbled once anyway, I don’t think I did it because I was really angry..
“…Ah, thank you.”
Since he seemed to have slowly woken up, Misha and I sat down and ate some bread and beef jerky..
I don't have an appetite right after waking up.…….
Because if I go out, I won’t have time to eat comfortably..
“When you're done eating, take a break. Only a few minutes left.”
“I understand.”
Soon, Misha slowly awakened his body's senses by doing the strangest national gymnastics..
But maybe it’s because he’s an agile character??
The body is incredibly flexible..
“Me, Bjorn…….”
As I was organizing my backpack during my spare time, Misha spoke to me while he was stretching..
“Something.”
“Well, there are Hikuro, Dwalki, and Rotmiller.…….”
“Just say it calmly.”
“What do you think happened to those three? Still, he's still alive.?”
Well, that was the question after all..
I thought it was time to come out..
Because people tend to start thinking about other things once their bodies become fit for life..
I answered without hesitation.
“I do not know either.”
“That's right, but it's not possible to make predictions..”
It's not a prediction, it's a wishful thinking..
I decisively cut off the conversation before it became unnecessarily long..
“Nothing changes my prediction anyway.”
There is no meaning to their lives, whether they died or not.
Even if they are in a difficult situation, what can we do when we are shipwrecked in the Witch's Forest?.
First you have to focus on surviving..
Anyway, won't you know the result naturally as long as you return to the city?.
“So, when you're fully relaxed, check your equipment one more time..”
'Cause that's all we can do right now.
Tadat-
The firewood that burned until the end was extinguished..
「The Witch's Hut is closed.」
「The character moves to the witch's forest.」
It's time to get out..
***
「The status abnormality [Witch's Eye] is upgraded to level 6..」
「The status abnormality [Witch's Eye] is upgraded to level 7..」
「The status abnormality [Witch's Eye] is upgraded to level 8..」
「The status abnormality [Witch's Eye] has been upgraded to level 9.…….」
***
Day 11 of entering the labyrinth.
In other words, it has already been eight days since we were shipwrecked in the Witch's Forest..
「The status abnormality [Witch's Eye] is upgraded to level 10..」
Now I really don't even have time to take a breather.
We have to keep walking..
[[Witch's Eye] has now reached its highest level..
It was calculated that if you stay in one place for just 3 minutes, a cannivaro will pop out..
‘Still, the good news among the misfortunes is... First of all, nothing gets worse from here?.’
This is assuming that no other variables arise after this..
Of course, there is also the possibility that the variable is a positive variable..
For example, an integer, an integer, an integer, etc.…….
‘fuck.’
Wandering through the witch's forest, we had to hunt many monsters against our will..
But the essence did not fall.
It was a very sad part..
As long as you give something, your combat power will immediately go up just a little bit more.…….
Some essences had enough efficacy to completely change this situation 180 degrees..
If I had to pick a representative, it would be like this guy..
“Bjorn! There's a witch lamp over there.!”
“Hurry up and move on.”
9Grade Zero Residence Monster Witch's Lamp.
It looks just like a will-o'-the-wisp..
His combat power was poor, so he could be defeated without any problems as long as he had elemental damage..
Active skills are no different from trash..
Anywhere except the Witch's Forest.
「Witch's Lamp casts [Witch's Lantern].」
Summoning Skill [Witch’s Lantern].
Surprisingly, the summoned object is ‘Witch Sramp’.
That's right, this bastard summons himself..
In other words, if you eat this essence, you can summon and use the witch lamp..
“Jeongsu, come with me!!”
Misha chanted a spell and quickly killed the witch lamps that had multiplied from three to six..
However, once again, there was no essence this time..
Huh, once this bastard Jung Soo comes out, it would be possible to get out of here right away using this guy as a guide.…….
‘In the end, I have no choice but to hold on until the last day.?’
Realistically, that's the most likely possibility..
3Because the labyrinth is closed on the 15th day..
If I last just 4 days, I can go back to the city..
The problem is that I'm not confident that I can even survive those few days..
“Misha, how is your stamina??”
“Well, it's hard, but I took a break recently so it's okay..”
Yesterday evening, I was lucky enough to find a cabin once more and rest for a while..
It was a discovery and a break after nearly 50 hours..
In short, it means that all you have to do is move around without being able to sleep or eat properly..
‘I even found out late so I could only rest for 4 hours..’
Finding a cabin is pure luck.
So, if you're unlucky, you might not find a single cabin for the remaining four days..
That's why every time I see a witch lamp, I turn on my eyes and hunt..
It's better to try everything you can—
“Bjorn.”
Misha, who was walking ahead, stopped..
So I stopped thinking and looked ahead..
“per explorer.”
For the first time since I was shipwrecked, I encountered something other than a monster..
And I couldn't figure it out yet.
“Barbarian and beastman? Is it really just the two of you??”
Is this really a positive variable or a negative variable?.
