Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 587 Original (4)

The space entered through the portal opened next to the troll statue.

It didn’t take long to check where this place was.

Cold air seeping through the soles of your shoes.

A wall of ice that reflects white light like transparent glass.

‘…It’s a glacial cave.’

The place where he met Mr. Bear and killed Gensia, a player from Noark.

However, the feeling was not new or anything.

That’s because I already felt everything when I came in to catch the tyrant Tarunbas.

‘Anyway, then it’s a crack on the first floor…’

Thanks to that, the number of samples increased.

Just like the Duke of Cambormere, the hidden boss, appeared with a very atrocious probability when entering the Bloody Fortress.

Some cracks may have hidden bosses.

The Guardian Troll I’m about to catch is probably one of those cases.

“Let’s look at the face first and think about it.”

After stopping at the starting point to finish organizing my thoughts, I moved on and passed the aisle. Before long, the narrow alleyway widened and a huge cavity appeared.

The troll was nowhere to be seen.

‘As expected… the boss room is a bit different too.’

Before the boss appeared, I hurriedly scanned the surrounding terrain and explored with my eyes.

As if the coffin was placed instead of the Death Knight in the Bloody Fortress where Cambormire appeared.

There was a change here too.

Three ice orc brothers trapped in a pillar of ice.

Just before the boss battle, the tyrant Tarunbas didn’t have these guys who came out like an appetizer, but…

‘What happened here.’

The frozen cavity is full of corpses.

The corpses of people with their arms and legs torn and crushed to the point of being unrecognizable are piled up like a mountain.

However, it was not difficult to recognize that they were ’empire soldiers’.

This is thanks to the pattern engraved on the blood-stained and discolored flag.

The pattern that I saw in the doppelganger forest and in the cave where I fought to the death with the centurion Dreadfear.

‘Imperial Army has no place to wear.’

In terms of Earth, is it like England?

In any case, there were corpses of monsters in the cavity as well as the corpses of the imperial army.

Ice Orcs, Frostwolves, Yeti, and more.

Monsters appearing in the Glacier Cave, as well as objects that were completely unrelated, were seen here and there…

‘Isn’t that Tarunbas…?’

A corpse believed to be the tyrant Tarunbas, the guardian of the original glacial cave, was also found.

The club he originally carried was invisible—.

creak creak

what is it and where is it from

Even looking around at the disparate noise that bloomed in the silence, I was able to find the source of the sound before long.

creak creak

An exceptionally large mountain of corpses in the center of the cavity sways.

When I focused on my hearing, another sound came from within.

Gulp—

this time like swallowing something.

It was the moment when I was approaching in that direction, feeling doubt.

[Oh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhently,

something covered under the carbsic acid burst into a ghost.

***

Body well over 5m.

Fangs of ferocious size protruded from the mouth.

It had all the hallmarks of a troll, except that it was much larger than a normal troll.

‘Even though my skin is black…’

I’m a K-barbarian who lived in a modern world where people are accused of being racist just by saying anything about their skin color.

Therefore, I focused more on other things than skin color.

‘He’s also carrying a club.’

The guy, holding a piece of a person’s arm in one hand and squatting as if eating a snack, was holding a stick in the other hand.

It was originally a club carried by the tyrant Tarunbas.

Oh, and there is also an official name for reference.

No. 9712 ‘Snowfield Club’.

A blunt weapon with only the simple effect of adding a cold deal to a normal hit deal, befitting an item that is a long way behind the scenes.

coo-!

The guy who swallowed the ‘snack’ he was holding in one bite soon took a step toward me threateningly.

I just tried to talk calmly.

“I am Bjorn, the son of Yandel.”

coo-!

When I spoke to him, expressing that he had no intention of attacking, he stopped walking.

And he looks down at me and tilts his head.

[Is that so…?]

Could it be that the conversation works this time?

One second was enough for those expectations to be crushed mercilessly.

[Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa troll!] I

just revealed my name, but for some reason, the troll started charging with a ferocious scream.

As much as I had high expectations, I was also very disappointed.

“Ha….”

Is the word not working?

Seeing him chewing up people’s limbs, I wondered if that would be the case, but…

well, it’s too early to give up.

Whoa-!

Quickly avoiding the swinging stick, try talking again.

In case you didn’t know, this time in ancient language.

[Calm down. I don’t want to fight you.]

[….]

[My name is Yandel’s son,

Bi-yeo-

. ]

can’t this too?

Then there’s not much left

…

After that, I tried to talk to him in his language, but the conversation still didn’t work.

So I pulled out my last resort.

I couldn’t help it because I couldn’t communicate with Lapdonia or ancient words or the words he was spouting.

I have no choice but to try to talk with my body.

Poo-!

I hit the chin of the ignorant guy with a hammer.

That’s because people with anger management disorders could easily be found in modern times.

Like their characteristics, I wondered if he would come to his senses if he showed a clear difference in strength this time as well.

But…

‘I guess he wasn’t the complainant.’

He said he didn’t even use [Swing] because he was afraid of getting killed in one shot, but instead he got even more angry and attacked me.

Same behavior as normal monsters expressing aggression until the flame of life goes out.

‘Okay then, give up the conversation cleanly.’

Judging that the main goal was impossible to achieve, I focused on the secondary goal.

It’s just collecting information about him…

Whoa!

At that time, his club made a gong sound and cut through the air. In the process, there were no flashy effects such as light shining on the weapon or lightning emanating from it.

but nonetheless.

No, that’s why at least I was able to recognize it at a glance.

‘…[swing]?’

The troll guy used [Swing].

It’s embarrassing, but the head calmly figured out what the cause of this phenomenon was.

‘Upper variant….’

The trolls in Glacier Cave are a higher variant.

So, it uses the integer of another object.

Just as the vampire Cambormire used Nightpla’s [Pain Sharing], this guy can use ogre skills.

Of course, that’s not what’s important.

‘…was it really happened.’

It was a curiosity I had for a very long time.

The strength of an ogre and the regenerative power of a troll. How would it feel if there were a monster with these two things?

It was as if the monster in his imagination had now become a reality.

But…

‘It’s not as big as I thought.’

Wouldn’t it be better if the ogre had the troll essence?

The opposite of that, the troll, was more bland than expected.

Well, should I say I’ve become too strong?

In fact, if it had been this guy rather than Cambormere that he encountered at the first rift, Bjorn Yandel’s journey would have come to an end from that day.

‘Then let’s check it soon.’

After that, I explored the entire fighting style of trolls by adding deals step by step.

It is judged that it will be easier for those who will challenge later to collect information as much as possible.

Of course, the battle was soon over.

Did it take about 30 minutes?

At the end, there seemed to be nothing to be aware of except for the darkening of the cave and the troll’s cooldown.

「You have killed the corrupted beast, Killdwi.

」 EXP +1”

“Guardian defeat bonus. EXP +3”

Eventually, as I smashed the troll’s head with a hammer, the portal opened and, as usual, Rainbow Essence came out without even looking at it.

***

After catching the troll, I first killed all the unidentified guardians who were level 5, but there was no particular income.

Only the Duke of Cambormere was able to communicate.

‘Something… I’m sure there must be a reason…’

Even if I think about cancer, I can’t even come up with a plausible hypothesis.

Why was the old man talking?

In what way was it different from other unidentified guardians?

just luck?

I don’t know, but I also finished digging the secret at this point and resumed the attack.

Cleared the White Temple, a rift on the third floor that had been postponed.

[…]

It’s strange, but the knight of the apocalypse that appeared in the White Temple rushed at me without even saying the lines he spat in the game.

And it was the same for the 4th floor crack, which was challenged by borrowing equipment that might be helpful in the attack.

[Did you also… come to kill me…?]

The doppelganger, who should have said such lines originally, started the boss battle without saying anything.

Oh, for reference, the composition of the boss fight was different from the original one.

I was wondering what would happen to the gimmick where you have to attack from inside and outside and the doppelganger turns into a team member when you are a solo player.

‘This thing… was made to be broken?’

He transformed into me and fought, and even gained a numerical advantage using [Self-replicating].

But the situation was not so hopeless.

Because doppelgangers can’t copy number items.

Aegis barrier.

Kraul’s Demon Crusher.

Two key core items, as well as a counter item to humanoid monsters, ‘Outlaw of the Wilderness’.

Besides that, there are a lot of equipment borrowed from outside.

After using them to the limit, I was able to defeat the doppelganger.

It took about 7 hours.

「Doppelganger has been killed.」

「Guardian kill bonus. EXP +3」

The seal of the doppelganger, which was originally supposed to be blocked somehow, was lifted long ago, and I saw the [Crystallization] pattern alone 13 times in that state.

It was a strategy that was possible because no matter how much the number of guys increased, I didn’t get a deal at all after completing the full set.

‘Oooh… I thought it was really going to end.’

After I came out, I shared the process of fighting the doppelganger with everyone, and everyone was speechless when I heard that I had fought for 7 hours.

Fortunately, I didn’t see anyone showing off their courage to take on the challenge, as if my fierce battle was impressive.

I just open my mouth and admire.

“The essence of the doppelganger…

“It’s not the kind of monster you can catch alone.”

“I’m amazed that I was able to catch a rift guardian on the 4th floor or higher by myself.”

“however… It seems that the baron didn’t drink the essence this time either?”

Ah, the question I heard at the end was something I was worried about too.

The value of the doppelganger essence is very high.

It can be quite useful no matter what job you eat.

But…

‘Khan is not enough.’

How strong would I be if I became two?

It’s not even that the number item is copied when using clone magic.

In addition, [Self-Replication] gave up coolly because synergy would be achieved only when the same essence as Amelia’s [Double Rule] was eaten.

‘I don’t know what will come out, but I have to leave one blank unconditionally.’

Anyway, after the fierce battle with the doppelganger, I just spent the day relaxing and resting, but the atmosphere of the exploration team was very peculiar.

“Oh oh! You’re back! Good luck!”

“City priest! Look at the wound!”

The explorers who chose the challenge showed off their passion by going in and out of the portal day and night, while the knights, priests, and wizards took a step back and were killing time by doing their own thing.

That’s right, they don’t need experience points or essences.

Magicians with academic passion seem to be interested in the current situation, but…

“The Baron will also challenge the Golden Ruins tomorrow, right?”

“Yes, I will.”

“I wonder… what will the golden ruins be like? And what lies beyond that closed door?”

Those wizards just waited for my steps and paid no attention to the already cleared stone statue.

The next day I spent relaxing like that.

「You have killed Calpion, the golden fang. EXP +6.”

“Guardian defeat bonus. EXP +3”

After breakfast, I challenged the 4th floor rift, the Golden Ruins, and returned after clearing it in about 3 hours.

However, it was not a tense situation like the time of the doppelganger.

It was just a tanker’s fate.

‘Ha… that’s an attack skill.’

[Swing] and Demon Crusher.

At least there were two of them, so I managed to catch them, but it inevitably took a long time to peel off the skins of the Carpions one by one.

This time, it wasn’t even a humanoid monster, so it was impossible to bounce deals as an outlaw in the wilderness.

‘…Still, I caught it because I’m a tanker.’

In fact, this is common in RPG games.

A good tanker can take down a boss that other classes can’t catch, if they are compatible.

Oh, of course, provided there is no time limit.

‘Then, if the unidentified guardians are excluded, is it only the 5th floor left…’ As

my gaze turned to the 5th floor guardians, people’s attention began to gather.

Most of them were curious eyes. In the case of the members of Anabada, it was a slightly nervous look.

“I’m sure… Two portals opened from the 5th floor crack, right?”

“Yes. I wonder who Baron Yandel will try to get into a rift with.”

I looked all around.

“…”

Amelia’s expressionless expression and Erwen’s expectant gaze.

‘Does he know that he’s going on a picnic or something?’

In Misha’s case, it was a nervous expression, and Einar averted his gaze as soon as our eyes met.

For some reason, he seemed even less motivated today.

I’ve already decided who I’m going to take anyway.

trudge trudge.

I passed the people and stopped in front of one.

“Arua Raven.”

“…yes?”

He didn’t expect to be chosen at all, but he didn’t need long words.

“I need you.”

Isn’t that the 5th floor Guardian Essence?

Of course you have to put it in a test tube.
