Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 44 Line (1)

‘But do I really have to save my colleagues?’

It was the first thought I had when Ainar talked about leaving the party.

That’s why it’s different from me two months ago.

‘I think a group of Deathfinds can hunt by themselves now.’

Corpse Golems and Vampires also ate the Guardian’s essence.

The basic stats themselves, including strength, have increased tremendously, and considering the regeneration-related skills, it is safe to say that there is virtually no opponent at the 2nd floor level.

‘There’s nothing I can’t do to be sure.’

There are no nights.

There is no colleague to turn to in case of an emergency.

But I made my judgment objectively.

Even considering all of that, at the current level, I can play a stable enough solo.

‘Well, the 3rd floor would be impossible anyway.’

[Dungeon and Stone] is basically a game that requires party play. No matter how strong a character is, it is impossible due to the structure of the game to shoot a matchless character alone.

As much as that, the role group is divided in detail, and the absence of a specific role group acts fatally as you go up the floor.

For example, like the goblin forest where a seeker was essential.

There is a wall that cannot be crossed by a barbarian in the ‘tank’ position alone.

‘In the first place, the size of the monsters that appear on the 3rd floor also changes.’

After thinking about it, I made a decision.

Find a new colleague of the same level.

If you can’t find it, join a team like that.

And together, they hunt monsters on higher floors and aim for the top.

‘It’s more efficient than wasting time on the second floor alone.’

Of course, this would also be quite a headache.

It’s not just about fighting power or the composition of members, it’s because we have to check if they’re trustworthy.

‘Whoa, where do I get those guys?’

It seems that this month will be quite busy.

Aside from Erwen and Einar, in fact, there are no people in this world that could be considered acquaintances.

“Keuuu…….”

The car was about to go up to the room after pouring the rest of the beer into its mouth.

“Hey there, Mr. Barbarian! What do you think?”

A group of explorers who had been pouring alcohol loudly at the next table started talking to me.

“What do you mean?”

“Oh, didn’t you hear? This young fellow here is making cute noises.”

Well, it doesn’t sound like a fight.

When I made a gesture that I would take a look at it, an explorer in his mid-twenties explained the situation.

To summarize, it was this.

Somehow, a story about a free barbarian came up. Of course, the explorers were excitedly swearing at the guild.

But at that time, a young explorer came and praised the guild, asking if you believed such nonsense.

The explorers who were listening openly teased and laughed at it, and they came to catch it when they saw it the day they passed by.

“For this reason, I wanted to hear your opinion once. How is it?

Shiva say that.

“I’d trust the shit that was passing by instead of trusting them.”

“Euhahahaha! As expected, I knew you would say that! Just by looking at your eyes, you look different from me!”

A man who laughs at what is so good.

A young boy who had been crouching in a corner jumped up with a blush on his face.

“Wait a minute! What’s wrong with all the explorers? If there’s no guild, who will protect us in this city? We should be grateful!”

Silence that lasted for a while.

Before long, everyone at the table burst into laughter.

“What? Thank you? Puhahahahaha!”

“Kid! That’s why you’re treated like a kid wherever you go!”

It seems that there is a culture among explorers who should distrust the guild, but recognize them as worthy explorers.

“Everyone thinks this is it? Won’t he realize after experiencing it a little more? That no one but himself can protect himself.”

“Are you saying something that touches your heart?”

“In that sense, let’s have a drink!”

After the short happening, the explorers started drinking again.

Therefore, I was about to leave, but the man who first talked to me approached me with a friendly expression.

“It’s Hans.”

“Hans…?”

“Haha! It’s a common name, right?”

I don’t know, but it seems to be common.

The name of the first man I killed in the labyrinth was Hans.

“I am Bjorn, the son of Yandel.”

“I see! It’s fate that we met like this, but if you’re not tired, why not have another drink? Of course, I’ll buy you a drink!”

After thinking for a moment, I nodded.

I wandered all over the place and listened to the conversations of explorers a lot, but I didn’t have many conversations with myself.

“So, what was your concern, so you were doing it alone?”

Maybe I could get some unexpected advice, so I honestly expressed my concerns.

“The team has disbanded and I’m looking for a new ally. But I don’t know where to start.”

Hans, who was listening intently, said, ‘Eh?’ I tilted my head with a face.

“If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be easier just to go to the guild?”

“Guild?”

“Haha! It’s true that they’re not trustworthy bastards, but shouldn’t we use what’s available? How much money goes to them from our taxes!”

Well definitely not like that.

No matter what, it is a relationship that cannot be separated from the explorer guild.

Even in the game, it was easy to find colleagues through guilds.

But…

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to trust the people I met there.”

“Hahaha! Looks like you haven’t used it properly yet? It’s changed a lot from before. Wearing a video recorder has become mandatory because there are so many times when I beat betrayal.”

okay?

There was nothing like that in the game.

“Trust me and go. If you do it right, the things you worry about won’t happen.”

Having said that, I don’t think it’s bad to try once.

***

Next morning.

Waking up with a slight hangover, I headed straight to the Magic Tower.

“You cannot enter without a visitor pass.”

Why don’t you ask first?

I was annoyed that I had been experiencing racial discrimination since the wind in the morning, but when I showed the card Raven gave me, the staff let me in without saying anything.

Ding-!

The 31st floor arrived like that.

Soon after entering Raven’s private laboratory, I am greeted by a busier interior than two days ago.

“Oh, are you here?”

It seems that a lot of the books and documents that were obviously messed up have been removed, but instead, the room is filled with terrifying devices.

“…Where is this used?”

Among them, I pointed out the most bloody-looking object and asked what it was for.

“It’s nothing special, it’s a magic tool that makes it easier to collect blood.”

Her answer surprised me twice.

One time from not being used to break human skulls. And twice that this barbaric type of device is a magic tool.

“Then are you ready?”

“…I don’t think it’s done yet.”

“Ah, what about the mother? Come here quickly.”

“…it is.”

At first, I was half suspicious and half worried, but unexpectedly, all the swordsmen who used magic tools were quite humane.

Also, the process was so quick that it didn’t take long for everything to be over.

Just looking at the test results…

‘It’s no different from what I organized alone in prison.’

“First of all, I can’t find any characteristics that are significantly different from the essences of other Guardians. Ah, you know what I’m talking about, right?”

“Know.”

Essences dropped by guardians have two characteristics.

First of all, the basic stats are 1.5 times higher than normal integers.

“You know, you better see this for yourself.”

She summarized the stats of the vampire’s essence that she estimated using various magic tools.

It didn’t make any sense.

As expected, not only were the numbers (top) (middle) (bottom) written on the paper, but

I was able to calculate the exact number by multiplying the normal vampire’s stats by 1.5 anyway.

[Vampire]

Natural Regeneration +45 Strength +15 Agility +15 Exorcism +30 Physical Resistance +12 Soul Power +21 Mana Responsiveness +30 Dark Resistance +12 Sun Resistance

-12 figure to be.

Definitely not wrong.

The Essence of the Corpse Golem, which was only level 7, had a pain resistance of 70 and a high bone strength of 55.

Even this number was multiplied by 1.5.

But…….

‘Natural regeneration, exorcism, physical resistance, soul power, and even mana sensitivity…’

The degree of rareness of the stats is different.

Even in the game, most of these precious stats tended to be measured low.

Because if you just spread it, a monster will be born.

“I feel it again, but Mr. Yandel is also very lucky. Everyone says that the essence of normal vampires is rare and can’t be obtained, but to get it from a guardian.”

In fact, it is not enough to say that I am lucky.

A Guardian Essence of level 5 or higher is not lacking at all even if it is treated as a Graduation Essence.

In many ways, it is absolutely not something that can be obtained at the beginning.

“If you’ve seen all of them, look at this too. In case you don’t know, I’ve compiled all of the abilities. There are four in total.”

Suddenly, the corners of his lips rose.

“Four…”

is the second characteristic of the Guardian’s Essence.

Normal Essence only has two skills, Passive and Active.

But the Guardian’s essence is different.

(P) Source of Darkness — Resists death when the heart is intact.

Basic passive skills, of course.

(A) Immolation Imprint — Temporarily boosts your physical abilities based on the number of creatures you have blood on.

(A) Eternal — Temporarily greatly increases regeneration based on missing health.

(A) Master of Blood — Temporarily absorbs one of the target’s skills when directly vampiric.

All active skills that can be attached are attached. Originally, in order to obtain the [Sacrificial Imprint], the yellow essence of a vampire must be consumed, and the red essence

must be

consumed in order to obtain the [Master of Blood] .

Even though the difficulty of obtaining it is high.

‘Since I got this imprint on the Undead, is it safe to say that the regeneration power setting is actually over?’

The growth rate is so fast that even I, who have been playing this game for ten years, can’t believe it.

As I was feeling satisfied inside, I heard her muttering to herself.

“Well then, today ends here. Thank you for your hard work. Come next week at a convenient time. I will be here anyway.”

“But is there anything else to investigate here?”

“What are you talking about? In order for this integer to be adopted as the official data of the society, we need to conduct 10 more surveys on the response.”

…I see.

“Don’t be offended that I asked because I didn’t know.”

“I’m not angry. Anyway, if I have time, I’m going to look at the Corpse Golem Essence, so don’t ever think about running away.”

“…I get it.”

I was almost naked during the examination, so I put on my juseom juseom clothes.

And before leaving, I asked once.

“Raven, do you have plans to enter the labyrinth in the future?”

“Well? Probably won’t be for a while… Why is that?”

“Kuh hmm hmm! Wouldn’t it be nice to be with people I know!”

As much as I was shy myself, I wonder if she could see my insides clearly.

She laughed incredulously.

“Hey, aren’t we like that?”

“Okay, pretend you haven’t heard. ”

“I don’t like it?”

The voice gets harsh in an instant.

Come to think of it, that’s what his personality was originally. He’s

usually calm, but sometimes, when Pinto goes out, he’s rude without end

. Can you do it?”

To correct it, it’s not even two of them.

One of them withdrew yesterday.

If I said it, the atmosphere would be more bloody. “…So

you said you didn’t hear it !”

?”

No

, is this an issue that raises the voice so much?

I was thinking about how to respond to her sudden rash

.

Mr. Yandel, even if it’s not me, if you’re going to make that kind of offer to a wizard, at least make a team. Um… It would be nice if all the team members were level 6 or higher and even had priests.”

Nimmi, who doesn’t know that?

If the situation was that good, I wouldn’t have suggested this to you.

“I will.” Anyway,

I know wizards are arrogant. ***

“Then let’s go.”

”

Ah! Wait a minute!”

Raven grabbed Bjorn as he was about to leave.

It was because he remembered that he hadn’t asked

. what was that then? You know, stuffed into the mouth of a fainting vampire. I think I felt divine power…”

It was a question that came up while I was recording the past to pass on to my master.

What the hell was that?

No matter how you look at it, it wasn’t something that a 9th grade explorer could carry.

“Well, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Yes?”

“Isn’t there something wrong? Wasn’t it a very hectic situation?”

“A misunderstanding? It can’t be. I definitely felt it—”

“I’m going to go. I have somewhere to go in a hurry.”

“Hey! Wait! Wait—”

Bang!

Bjorn slammed the door before he could say anything more.

‘So you’re hiding something?’

Looking at the place she left, she frowned,

then went to the

study with a sigh and pulled out

a

thick book . An old old book.

Surprisingly, this book, which I accidentally purchased in the free market when I was young, contains knowledge that has not been recorded in the academic

society .

A map of the dungeon part,

the exact location of the hidden passage, a page with

advanced information about the Blood Citadel

,

such as how to get the ‘Necronomicon’ in the Devil’s Worship Room

.

[Tears of the Goddess]

Where to get: ——————

[Golden Mask]

——— : ——— —.

Two items that have disappeared into the unknown due to the weathering of the years

. She searched for it, but couldn’t find it in the end.

She licked her lips in regret and tilted her head.

‘Wait, I think I’ve heard of the goddess’ tears somewhere…’

Where was it

? She took out several books related to religion and quickly turned the pages one by one.

And how long did it take?

Finally, her hand stopped turning the pages.

[Tears of the Goddess]

A consumable sacred object of unknown origin.

When destroyed, a powerful ‘grace’ is placed at that location. ‘.

At the time of the dimension collapse 150 years ago, Cardinal Androne used all three to save the pope, and then disappeared from the world. “A holy relic

? ”

It’s too

soon to be sure as I’ve only seen it from a distance, but the general shape and size seemed similar.

Even the method of use and effect.

“…….”

Raven got confused

. But if

it wasn’t a coincidence,

how could the barbarian, who had just become an adult, know where the [Tears of the Goddess] was hidden and even think about using it right away?

‘Couldn’t Mr. Yandel…’

A possibility that popped into her head made her eyes shine as she held the book.

‘I’ll have to check it out.’

no matter how long it took

It will be worth it.
