Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 81 Sewerage (2)

“Can you feel who’s inside the Rotmiller?”

“The smell of filth is so strong it’s impossible to tell.”

“I see. Then I’ll go down first, so follow me when I give you a signal.”

A pit about 5m long reminiscent of a water tank.

I slung my shield over my back and quickly climbed down the creaking ladder. And when he gave the hand signal, the rest of the party followed.

“Something spooky.”

As the view is illuminated through the torches, an angle reveals passages that cannot be seen from above.

“From now on, you take the lead.”

He chanted quietly so that the sound did not echo, and put the man in the lead. Then, holding on to the rope, he proceeded down the aisle.

Could it have been a minute or so?

‘Fuck…….’

I see bodies piled up like piles of clothes.

Dozens of corpses taking the form of a mummy, like ‘Hanson’, who had lost their vitality.

Somehow, the rotten me was poisonous.

“Uh uh… what is this…”

Looking at my flustered appearance, I don’t think this place was originally like this…

“Be quiet and keep moving.”

I pushed the back of the stopped man and continued to move forward.

Even so, I was on my nerves so that I could respond immediately when something happened.

So I was able to respond.

fluff.

A faint light began to seep in between the piles of rattles along with the sound of a mechanism operating.

And a deep voice echoing through the aisle.

[Sabeum Bania Hartia]

There was nothing more to look at.

One of the trap-type skills possessed by Karui Priests.

The sound effect is unique, so it is usually called ‘Sabaha’ for short.

「The character has entered the radius of the [Call of the Evil God].」

You fucking put this on?

“Step back!!”

While warning his colleagues with his mouth, he dragged the man by pulling the rope with his hands.

The reason is simple.

‘Savaha’ is not a skill that can be blocked with physical resistance or a shield made of titanium.

“Eh huh?”

Instead of a shield, the man in my hand lets out a dumbfounded sound.

and that moment.

Hundreds of banshee-like ghosts pour out from the other side of the aisle.

“Oops!! Aaaaaaa!!!”

The man who saw this screamed and struggled, but I did not relax and hid myself behind the man as much as I could.

I was lucky that this guy was tall.

If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have been able to finish it with this much damage.

「The character has absorbed 102 specters.」

「Dark resistance is above a certain level.」

「Effect is reduced by 30%.」

「The character’s maximum HP is temporarily reduced by 29%.」

There is a hole somewhere in the body. Vitality that seems to escape. Like someone who hasn’t drank water for days, the skin is dry.

The first to notice my change was Misha.

“As long as Bjorn is fine!”

Misha immediately ran to me and checked my condition.

Stopping me from feeding the potion right away, I stretched out my crouched body.

My muscles hurt because I was so tense.

‘I almost got screwed.’

A trap-like skill that pours out hundreds of souls in a designated direction when [Call of Evil God] is activated.

Its characteristic is that its maximum health is reduced by the number of times it is struck by the soul.

It’s obvious, but if the maximum is 0, it’s an instant death.

Like this man hanging from my hand.

“Is everyone okay?”

“Thanks to you stopping me from the front, I’m okay. Anyway, is he… dead?”

I didn’t bother to answer.

It would be even more amazing if he had survived with only bones and skin remaining.

As soon as I put down the man I was holding tightly in my hand, the dwarf muttered something dizzying.

“…I don’t know what to say, but you did a good job putting him in the lead.”

To agree.

And I’m not ashamed of that fact.

We are explorers without blood or tears.

“What are you going to do?

After thinking for a while, I made a decision.

“Let’s go.”

Several materials are required to install [Call of the Evil Spirit].

Most of them are human.

There are a lot of corpses around, but…

Even so, it’s not even a hundred units, so it must have been installed only once.

‘Besides, for some reason, if I don’t do it now, I think I’ll have trouble later…’

I don’t have any grounds, but I have a hunch.

Soon, the midget in the car that was about to leave handed me something.

“It’s not a big deal, but when I searched the bosom, something like this came out.”

It was the identity card of a man who had turned into a mummy.

I don’t know why fugitive criminals carry ID cards…

“You can submit them to the administrative office when you receive additional allowance later… No, what’s wrong with your expression?”

When I checked my identity card, I was startled.

[Hans Marcom]

……Is this also Hans?

I suddenly feel anxious.

***

After walking about 20 steps, we came to the hideout Hans E mentioned.

It was decorated better than expected.

There are beds, tables with leftover bread and coffee, and even candlesticks hanging from the walls.

It’s just…

“Ha ha ha, is anyone there?”

“Hmm, I guess either he left this place or he was away for a while.”

I don’t feel any popularity.

It’s not like there’s anywhere to hide.

“Don’t be vigilant. They might be hiding.”

Still, I was wary of the surroundings and searched the area thoroughly.

Under the bed, under the dining table, to see if there is a hidden space on the wall.

I observed it closely for about 5 minutes, but there was no significant result.

Until Dwalki casts a spell.

「Rioll Warb Dwalki cast 8th grade auxiliary magic [Detect Magical Power].」

[Detect Magical Power]

If something magical is added, it is a search-type magic that reveals it in some way.

“How is it?”

“Ambiguous.”

“Are you vague?”

“I can faintly sense some magical energy on the floor here… but it’s too faint. I wonder if I’m mistaken.”

Soon I checked the floor that Dwalki pointed to.

Since I’m not a wizard, I didn’t see anything strange about it.

It’s not like there are any minor blemishes.

“Is there any way to learn more about something magical here?”

“No. But if I have to guess, it seems that this magic is hiding something underneath.”

“Right.”

After one question, I immediately raised my mace.

Looking at me like that, the dwarf asked.

“What are you doing?”

“Smash down.”

“…to strike down?”

I didn’t bother to answer the dwarf’s question again. Well, since the magical means were blocked, wouldn’t it be the turn to use the physical means?

like a barbarian.

Quaang-!

The moment the mace, which has doubled in price and size, hits the ground, the ground shakes.

But that was all.

“Bjorn’s magical device cannot be opened that way.”

Dwalki, who had been watching, said yes, but I continued to mace in silence.

Quaang! Quaang! Quaang! Quaang!

A mace that is perfectly fine even when it strikes the ground, perhaps because it is made of steel.

Of course, the ground was slightly dented, but there was no change.

So—

“Enough. Dwalki said that. That way…” He

takes off his breastplate, takes off his shoes, takes off his helmet, and sets down the backpack he’s carrying on his back.

Why is everyone doing this all of a sudden? It is the eyes that

「The character has cast [Giant].」

「The character’s physique increases, and the threat and body values increase in proportion to the size.」

The body doubles in size and soars with strength. The dwarf was still groaning.

“No matter how you do it, magic is like that…”

Impossible?

As a late figure in the game and a current barbarian warrior, it’s still hard to agree.

If you can’t break it by force—

Quaaaaaang-!!!!

because it lacks power.

“……???!”

Oh, except for ghosts, of course.

***

“This is how it works.”

“What happened to Dwalki? Didn’t he say no to you?”

“Uh… that’s… I don’t know either. Why is this happening…”

I checked the floor behind each one’s murmur.

After a couple of blows, light leaked out and cracks began to form, and only after the third was the smashed hole, to my surprise, there were stairs.

“A hidden stairway in a sewer like this…”

It’s so deep that even if you put a torch under it, you can’t see the end.

It feels like a gateway to the underworld.

“I wonder if I have to go down here…?”

Misha looks at me with a puzzled expression.

To be honest, I didn’t like it either.

Since it was used as a hiding place, I thought at best that there would be a place to hide one body…

‘But what is this again?’

For some reason, I feel like I’m caught up in a troublesome thing, but at the same time, I’m slightly curious. That’s because the sewer itself was off-limits in the game.

Of course, I have no intention of taking risks out of curiosity.

But…

“The smell of that woman, Bjorn, emanates faintly from down here.”

“what?”

“It must have passed this place. Not too long ago.”

what about civa?

Should I just do this and go back and tell you guys to take care of it?

trouble deepens

Therefore, I also asked Rotmiller’s opinion.

“What do you think, Rottmiller? Do you think it’s good to step down like this?”

“…I think it’ll be fine as long as I check it out a little. I don’t smell anyone else down here except for that woman.”

It was a slightly surprising answer.

But did that feeling show?

Rottmiller laughs and adds an explanation.

“For some reason, I have a feeling that it won’t be too dangerous.”

Well, the sixth sense stat was the reason.

Although there is no clear evidence, I did not listen to what he said.

‘The hit rate is higher than I thought.’

In fact, when Hans E was hiding, Rottmiller accurately sensed it.

The reluctance to head to the hideout?

If you felt that there was a trap and it was dangerous, it is understandable that you objected alone during the majority vote.

‘It’s a sixth sense… This might be a better stat than I thought.’

Soon I came to a conclusion.

“Rotmiller, from now on, you’ll take the lead. If you feel like you’re in the slightest bit, I’ll go back right away.”

Rotmiller’s intuition is quite reliable.

***

“Vice-captain, the ‘door’ has been destroyed.”

A man frowned at his subordinate’s report.

An underground shelter built thousands of years ago, before Lapdonia, which was just a lord’s castle, was expanded countless times as it is now.

And the city ‘Noark’ built there.

Most of the entrances to this place are guarded by members at all times.

By the way…

“The door is destroyed? Could it be an attack from the royal family?”

“I think the probability of that is low.”

“…Tell me in detail.”

At the urging of the man, the subordinate hurriedly explained the situation

. no see. The last reconnaissance report said that a tramp was using it as a hiding place.”

“Hmm.”

The man touched his chin. It was his long-standing

habit when he was troubled.

…… Still, it’s clear that it’s an intruder, so you’ll need to check.”

“Yes. Then, which unit would you like to contact?”

“Is there any reason to send the unit?”

The man questioned and looked at the woman next to him.

It was the woman who had been conversing with him until the subordinate’s report continued.

In the past , Did the barbarian you let go become a famous explorer in the city? It’s been a while since the interesting conversation was interrupted…

“Amelia, if it’s you, you’ll be able to handle it quietly, no matter who the opponent is. ?”

The rest of the story will come later.
