Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha

# 165

165. Reason for not giving up (1)

[Clear the stage!]

[Level up ‘Velquist (★★★)’ and ‘Katio (★★★★)’!]

[Reward – 320000G]

[MVP – ‘Key Sasha (★★★★)’]

The stage clear message came to mind.

Light that wraps around the body. I looked at my right shoulder.

A black arrow is stuck in it. Bloodstains from the affected area were making stains like flowers. A dull pain spread with every breath.

‘….’

The archer across the cliff showed a hand on his forehead.

A confident smile bloomed on his lips under the mask. Does it mean that you can come and see me whenever you want?

‘Whoa.’

shit.

Consequently, so to speak.

I couldn’t break my leg. Doesn’t the arrow disappear, doesn’t it split into several pieces, doesn’t it break in a strange place? He used various unusual shooting techniques. At least, if it was a wide place, I would find a gap, but he is blocking the entrance of the narrow bridge. He barely escaped fatal injuries, but it took too much time.

‘Was the western reconnaissance a failure?’

A strange guy broke in and got twisted in vain.

In the end, while the magic bullet shooter or something blocked the archers, the archers safely joined the battlefield, and behind them was Bona Mana.

Looking to the side, the whole view of the unit came into view.

Countless corpses lay beneath the torn lion banners. Freea must be included in that. The stage clear means that the conditions for the mission to end have been met. That meant Freea’s death soon.

‘It’s the second out.’

Jenna’s voice echoed as her body blurred.

[Oppa, I think it’s over.]

“I know. How old are you?”

[Uh, so it’s exactly 183 minutes and 53 seconds from the start of the battle to the death of the princess.]

About 3 hours.

After occupying all bases in the field, you must finally join the battlefield.

It’s tight. It was tight. It would have been a lot easier without those weird guys.

‘Let’s see next time.’

It doesn’t end like this.

simplicity and honesty. I broke the arrow shaft stuck in my shoulder with my hand.

[Teeling!]

[Notice – 3 chances left!]

With a thin sound effect, we were moved to the space-time gap.

The mirror in the middle gave off a faint light. Katio sighed deeply, frowning.

“This is… difficult. Why is the mission here so difficult?”

“Little wizard, when do you sing that you want to do a mission, and now you’re scared?”

“It’s too bad. Harra, where I was, could have done it if I just came to my senses. What the hell is this? The 35th floor and this time it’s weird too. All the previous missions I’ve seen through regeneration stones have gone crazy.”

The arrow stuck in his shoulder came out smoothly.

I sheathed my sword and took a breath.

“I’ve cleared the stage… but I’m not happy at all. Anyway, there’s no lack of results, so if we get together and sort things out, the numbers will come out. Isn’t that right, oppa?”

Any seemingly impossible mission exists as long as it is a game.

But putting the strategy into action was another matter.

“brother?”

“why?”

“What’s wrong? You don’t look good.”

“I’m just tired.”

I just had an annoying thought.

Except for the 25th floor when I wasn’t there, the missions in all sections are set to atrocious. It’s like asking if you can wake up like this.

‘Do I have to do this shit all the way to the 100th floor?’

It has already suffered one failure on the 35th floor.

There was no way I was going to go through it one more time. But then the consequences would be even more fatal.

‘…’

I looked up.

A rainbow-colored sky. Amkena was looking down at us.

“How are you doing today, Han? Is it a gathering again?”

“It’s late. How about meeting again tomorrow?”

“That would be great. Everyone, organize today’s experiences well. At least in the 3rd round, we need to get a clear estimate.”

What I got from this second round was information about the limit of time that Freea could endure and the field section from south to northeast. It was just that a rather troublesome name appeared on the cliff to the west.

Feeling a headache, I came out of the space-time gap.

Starting with Belquist, the members scattered in a mess.

‘I have no intention of running away.’

The decision has already been made.

After Iolka died, I couldn’t escape.

Just thinking about the future made me annoyed.

my room.

‘Let’s see.’

Update the plains map.

There is a potion supply unit and archers in the west, and if you deal with this point, the annihilation time of the lion army will be delayed. The fortress and statue of the goddess are located on the eastern side.

‘There are three fortresses.’

According to Kishasha’s view, there were three fortresses in the east.

At least 3 fortresses must be captured within 3 hours. While escaping the pursuit of the black knight. Of course, we had to deal with the western base as well. The reconnaissance isn’t over yet, so there must be other obstacles.

‘I’m pissed off.’

As a hero, what you can do is limited.

If I had been a master, if I had only been able to handle tactical tools… I would have been able to plan the strategy properly.

[Loki?]

I was sitting blankly in my room at the dorm, and the starlight was shining next to me.

It was Issel.

[What’s going on?]

It looks like that.

I thought it was a poker face.

I opened my mouth.

“Isel.”

[Yeah!]

“What do you think of the mission difficulty here?”

[Mission difficulty? You mean Taoni?]

“Yes.”

Isel thought for a moment, then let out a deep sigh.

[If it wasn’t for Loki… it would have ended a long time ago.]

“I know that each account has a different difficulty level. Is the difficulty determined by luck?”

[That’s not it. According to the director, there is a reason. I didn’t hear the exact words.]

“Who made these missions. Is that the director or something?”

Issel nodded.

Is that so

“…It’s annoying.”

[Ho, by any chance… you’re not going back to Niflheim, are you? huh? If Loki leaves, this place is over! I’m finished too! never go I’ll do anything!]

“Don’t bother me like that. I’m not going.”

Well, the complaint ends here.

I smiled and turned the chair.

An updated map lies on the desk. It was time to focus again.

I’m trying to write down a specific strategy with a pen like that.

[…]

Isel is not leaving.

Cold sweat dripping from her cheeks, which had less breast fat, looked completely different from usual.

“Hey, aren’t you going?”

[Hey there…]

Issel swallowed.

[I got a call from the director.]

“Contact?”

Issel flapped his wings vigorously and spun once in the air.

Star dust scattered along the trajectory of the wings, and a small hologram window emerged between them.

[※Caution – GM dedicated line]

‘…?’

Tell] How are you?

I looked at Amkena’s control panel.

Amkena was in the middle of a mock battle with AI.

He didn’t seem to care about the message above.

‘Can you see only me?’

Isel looked at me restlessly.

Tell] This is the first time since the 1-star promotion ceremony. long time no see.

This bastard… No way.

Tell] Don’t be surprised, Loki. You can meet with me anytime you want. I thought you would call me at least once, but you didn’t come to see me at all. I mean, I don’t know too much about women’s feelings.

I tapped the shiny virtual keyboard under the chat window.

Han] I never called. go away.

Tell] Did you receive my gift well? One of the four hounds could have landed on a 7-star if he had made good use of it.

it’s a gift

Are you talking about unity?

I turned to Issel.

“Did you call this guy?”

[No, I’m…]

“It’s okay.”

If you can post tips, surf the web, and do other things, it won’t be difficult to connect the Mobius company’s chat line.

Anyway, Isel is just that guy’s subordinate.

You can’t openly deny it.

Tell] Anyway, Loki. Still alive on that damn account. amazing. sincerely. I made Taone and threw it away. I can’t tell you that the angle is not coming out at all.

Han] Doesn’t the angle come out?

Tell] To put it in the language these days, that account is Eva Tuna. Balance ruined angle? uh admit it

Tell] I thought I would contact you on the 20th floor at the latest. you lasted a long time I think you showed an activity worthy of your name. It’s part of the recognition mark. admit? uh admit it

Are you kidding me

Even while I was consistently ignoring it, the message continued.

Tell] Didn’t the Master fold over there? It should be folded.

Tell] As I said before, that account is not normal. Even if it was ruined, it was firmly ruined.

Soon after, the dialog window was updated.

Tell] How long can I last?

Tell] Did you say Amkena? Do you think that guy waving a fluorescent stick from behind is good enough to lead you? you know best If the master is incompetent, no matter how good the hero is, there is no answer. It’s over in the end.

Han] Stop the bullshit. Say something quickly

Tell] I’ll give you the Taone master position.

Tell] Don’t worry. Absolutely not a slave contract. You just have to abide by a few conditions. Of course, if you clear up to the 100th floor, you are guaranteed to return to Earth and a huge reward.

Tell] Isn’t that a good suggestion?

I turned off the chat window there.

There are many things I want to ask, but this guy has decided not to bother anymore.

Amkena is still heating up the mock battle with AI.

In the middle of a close match against a low-level bot. Even at the lowest level, I saw that I lost a lot, so I came up a lot.

‘If you use the fairies and bifrost there, it might be okay without a master. Because the interference of that sword is enormous.’

I remembered Yunet’s words that I had heard the other day.

Even if the master folds, there may be no problem. Rather, it meant that I could play the role of a master. At first, I could barely see the system log, let alone the master’s control window.

However, as time went on, the master’s screen gradually came into view as he climbed the tower and leveled up.

‘If that guy folds.’

To Amkena, this is just a game anyway.

It’s fun if you do it, and it’s okay if you don’t. Our determination was different from those of us who risked our lives.

‘…’

Giving the position of Master is.

Does it mean that Amkena is excluded from the Taoni language?

If so, the difficulty of the current task will also change. In a mission like this where roles and power distribution are important, the master’s tactical ability is much more important than the hero’s.

‘I don’t know.’

I laughed bitterly.

If it’s a normal difficulty, it’s fine, but in a place like this, there’s a limit to myself in the end. He handed over the Book of Heaven to Amkena and did not spare any advice or help, but… Rankers and general users had different attitudes toward the game.

‘Can I go up to the 100th floor with Amkena?’

In the end, it was a matter of will.

How much passion and improvement do you have for the game?

If you’re an ordinary user, it’s hard to do that.

[※Caution – GM dedicated line]

[There is an unconfirmed chat message.]

It seems that he hasn’t cut off the connection with me.

I turned to Issel, who was restless next to me.

“What do you think?”

[…]

“I think he said something like this. You have to sharpen your master to climb the tower.”

[I…]

said Issel, who had her eyes closed.

[Wouldn’t it be nice to leave it to the master?]

“At first, he cursed at me saying he was going to be mad.”

[It’s different now. It’s a bit dumb and has weird tastes, but I don’t think it’s bad. At least he doesn’t treat Loki carelessly. They play games hard and play smart.]

“It sounds like you’re a game addict.”

Issel chuckled.

[I have something to show you, Loki.]

“What is it?”

[Amkena’s cell phone usage history!]

I blinked.

I’m not sure what that means.

Whether I did it or not, Issel concentrated and started waving his hands.

[Ha! Appear!]

Byeong.

Along with the light, another hologram window appeared.

Familiar screen. It seems to be the storage device of the cell phone. Issel touched a document in the ‘Download’ folder. The text was printed on a white background.

[Tada, this is the serra of the sky! I save the document Loki gave me on my phone and look at it from time to time. I’ve opened it 132 times.]

Issel raised his nose.

Still, just looking at it doesn’t make any sense.

As I was silent, Issel flipped the screen to the end of the document.

[This was written by Amkena from the last page of the Book of the Sky.]

A letter came to mind.
