Chapter 65
Episode 65 Field Boss (1)
I slept soundly for 12 hours.
and when you wake up
For some reason, this time too, Misha cut my stomach and was drooling while sleeping.
“…….”
Anyway, I organized the loot to leave quite a bit of time.
I checked what was in the backpack and took off the rest of the trio’s equipment.
And they all fit into an expandable backpack.
It is fortunate that Missha is also the owner of an expandable backpack.
After putting so much equipment into it, it became quite heavy despite the lightening magic.
‘At this level, did I get the reward I had suffered so far?’
Leaving Misha sleeping, he took out some beef jerky and chewed on it.
Well, if he wakes up and is hungry, he will eat himself.
Fire-!
After finishing the meal, I simply washed my body with a cloth soaked in water.
Oh, I also shaved after a while.
‘He looks a bit like a human now.’
After burning all the firewood left in the fireplace, there was nothing to do.
So I went outside and sat in a rocking chair.
A faint smell of blood wafted from the peaceful meadow.
As I was basking in the sunlight while letting go of my thoughts, my eyes slowly closed.
Suddenly, in the middle of my sleep, I thought of a religious man with a broken head…
‘The entrance must have been closed, so I don’t have to worry about that.’
It’s peaceful.
At least as long as I’m here I’m safe.
yes that would be it
“Bjorn wake up. You have to eat and sleep, otherwise your stomach will explode!”
When I opened my eyes, Misha was shaking my shoulder.
I looked at my watch and it had been 14 more hours since I last checked.
“Now, even if you don’t have an appetite, eat it now!”
Misha splits the jerky and bread and brings them to my mouth.
I got up in the middle and ate, but I was hungry again, so I took it and ate it.
“Is Bjorn sleeping better?”
“no.”
“Um, yes. Oh, that’s right! But how did you know that if you put people in, you can stay here longer?”
“I read it in a book.”
“…Do you think Bjorn likes smart women?”
“Yes.”
After the meal, answering the questions roughly, I checked the fireplace.
Judging by the firepower, it looks like there’s less than an hour left…
Click.
I closed the watch and kept it in my bosom.
Then, stretching the body that had been asleep for a long time, he slowly began to prepare to go out.
It is still too early to celebrate, but strangely, my heart was full.
‘Really this day has come.’
The car on the 15th will start soon.
In other words, if you survive today, you can escape this dog-like forest and return to the city.
So…
“The witch’s hut is closed.”
“The character moves to the witch’s forest.”
Let’s concentrate until the end.
As always.
“Bjorn! How did this happen?”
“Fuck……”
It’s not over until it’s over.
***
“The fifth sacrifice was made in the hut.”
“The sixth sacrifice was made in the hut.” “
The seventh sacrifice was made in the hut….”
Satisfied.”
“Riakis, the lord of chaos, begins to roam the floor.”
***
The moment it came out of the cabin.
The change of the forest is felt by every organ of the body.
「Field Effect – The Witch’s Forest is cancelled.」
You can see straight ahead.
Hallucinations and hallucinations disappeared.
Also, the surroundings were bright enough to see far into the distance without a torch.
“Bjorn…?”
The ceiling emitted an ominous red light.
In addition, the spirit dwelling monsters that could be seen everywhere in the forest had completely disappeared.
“…….”
The first silence I encountered after entering the Witch’s Forest.
I bent down and touched the ground.
Hard.
I feel a slight tremor through my fingertips.
Therefore, there is no longer any need to confirm or deny the current situation.
I know the cause of this phenomenon.
“…a hierarchical lord.”
Hierarchical ruler.
A monster that acts as a kind of field boss.
In the game, the floor master was marked as a proper noun, and each floor had one different monarch.
By the way, except for a few floors, most of them were summoned when the trigger was triggered…
“Don’t tease me about a hierarchical ruler. I heard that there are no hierarchical rulers on the 3rd floor!!”
“It’s not that there isn’t one. It’s just that the summoning method has been kept secret.”
In the case of the crystal cave on the first floor.
After the 3rd day, it was known as common knowledge that when 5 or more people move, there is a certain probability that they will appear.
However, the tier lords on the 3rd floor are different.
The royal family and guild treated the summoning law as a top secret, and even created a new law to punish those who summoned them without prior notice.
According to the book, about 150 years ago from now.
“The guild kept it a secret? Why the hell?”
“It’s not like it’s just a few people dying if a madman summons it.”
The layer lord on the first floor kills only the explorer who triggered the trigger and disappears.
However, the 3rd floor lord is different.
The Lord of Chaos, Liakis.
“Erosion begins and all monsters on the floor disappear into chaos.”
“The creature of chaos wakes up.”
This thing affects the entire third floor…
“Chaos .” The lord of the Riakis begins to roam the floor.”
Once summoned, it roams the labyrinth until it dies, engaging in slaughter.
To make matters worse, even movement between floors is blocked.
“The portal is temporarily disabled due to erosion.”
This means that even escaping to another floor is impossible.
As I explained this, Misha’s complexion turned white.
“Then what is this? If it was handled as a secret, why did the hierarchical lord appear now!”
Ah uh um…….
Can you tell me the truth?
I was a little worried, but the decision was not difficult.
“Probably because of us.”
It would be better to make him an accomplice here.
benefactor and what
That would be more effective at keeping secrets.
“Oh, it’s because of us? I don’t understand this……”
“They burned the corpse on the stove in the hut. That’s one of the conditions.”
When I kindly explained it, the reaction jumped out with a time lag.
“…That was the summoning method?! Bjorn! What the hell did you do!!”
no i didn’t know it would be like this
Even in the books I read in the library, I heard that few people knew about it.
Was it last summoned 10 years ago?
So I thought it wouldn’t be a big deal even if I burned about 3 people.
‘Fuck, but who would have thought that 4 people were burned first…….’
Cursing comes out at the staggering coincidence.
But who to blame?
In the end, it must be my fault for not assuming the worst of the worst.
So in that sense…
“Misha, would you like to make a promise with me?”
“promise?”
“We must not tell anyone that we have summoned the Lord of Chaos.”
The summoning was not done after all preparations were made by a large clan.
I’m sure many explorers will die.
But if it is known that we are the cause…
‘We’ll somehow take responsibility and make them pay the price.’
Did you slowly realize your situation?
“Ooh us? What do you mean? You burned the body!”
Misha cuts and draws a line.
It was so urgent that the pronunciation of the end, which was always crushed, could be heard accurately.
It’s kind of sad.
He said he would treat him as a benefactor and repay him until the end of his life.
Anyway, when it comes to this, I have no choice.
I just have to push it a little bit.
“Do you think the guild will believe that? No, even if you believe it, the result will be the same. To calm that anger, the more sacrifices, the better.”
“Uh…”
Well, looking at that reaction, I don’t think you have to threaten to do the water ghost operation even if you give false testimony.
“If you understand, then wake up now. Going back to the city and dying is only possible if you’re lucky.”
“…Okay. Then what should I do now?”
The answer is simple.
“Let’s run.”
You need to get as far away from this place as possible.
I never imagined I’d be leaving this place like this…
‘It would be safest to go there first.’
It’s time to leave the witch’s forest.
***
The way to get out of this damn forest is simple.
Since the abnormal status [direction value] has disappeared, you only need to move in one direction by looking at the compass.
But the problem is that the entire third floor is teeming with new types of monsters.
“Bjorn! Something followed from behind!”
“It is the spirit of chaos.”
Please note that there are no ratings.
It does not give magic stones and does not give essence.
But…
“I’ll have to deal with it.”
The Spirit of Chaos is a first attacking monster, and once aggro is attracted, it follows until the end.
“…is it something we can catch ourselves?”
It was the first monster she had ever encountered, so Misha looked uneasy.
After all, ignorance here is like death.
I also learned by dying countless times in the game.
“Attack power is on the high side, but that’s all. Don’t worry, it will probably disappear in one elemental attack.”
“…Confirmed information?”
“Yes, I read it in a book.”
“Okay.”
As if I was relieved when I told her about the characteristics, Misha fixed the enchanted spear with holy water.
Then, he stabbed at the spirit of chaos that was slowly following him.
Pew-!
A spirit of chaos that exploded at once.
Something like slime wets the floor, staining the ground black.
“The spirit of chaos has been destroyed.”
“The location is eroded.”
Now, if you go up on the ground, you will receive continuous damage from the chaos attribute, but you don’t have to worry about it.
It’s not like we’re hunting the hierarchical lord here.
After all, it hasn’t even been a day since I was summoned.
‘After today, the labyrinth will be closed, so the erosion rate can be ignored.’
It’s just a positive factor.
Although the layer lord was suddenly summoned…….
[00: 01]
Now the 15th day has begun.
If you can hold out for the next 24 hours, you can leave for the city—
“Hey man! Help me too!!”
An explorer runs towards us from afar in a car about to leave.
Colleagues do not see
But he didn’t wonder why he was alone.
Dozens of chaos spirits following him from behind were explaining his circumstances.
“Bjorn?”
“What are you worrying about?
Run .” I grabbed the flinching Misha by the wrist and ran in the opposite direction
to
the man
calling for help .
Ahhh!”
I wonder if my physical strength was already at its limit.
I looked back at the short scream and saw the fallen explorer.
“Save me—!”
Damn
eyes
met. ”
Pulling Misha’s wrists, she looked forward again and ran.
“No! Don’t go!”
His despairing screams were buried in the sound of the wind brushing his ears and disappeared.
He chanted briefly as if repeating himself to himself.
“Eat hard. Do you think he would have helped if we were in the opposite situation?”
“But…! It’s not because of us that the 3rd floor became like this!”
Hmm, I don’t have anything to say if I say that.
‘Fuck…….’
I feel dirty.
It feels like every aspect of me as a human being has been dug up.
But eventually, this too will turn around someday If you look at it, it must be a fleeting feeling
… Let’s do what we have to do.
‘This should be enough.’
After heading south for a long time, we turned east again and moved. I saw eroded land and explorers’ corpses all over the forest. The more I did, the more I looked forward and
ran.
Phuong-!
Like that, I exploded the spirits of chaos that followed us for an hour. It was about time to move about.
The forest was over.
A plain with an open view appeared.
‘I thought it would take at least 7 hours……’
Were we at the eastern outskirts of the forest?
Expected I left the forest much earlier than the time.
‘I was lucky.’
Soon, we quickly passed the plains and entered the Orc colony.
And after a while,
“Now, everyone, calm down and follow the rules!
