Chapter 227 – Dungeon Distress -5-

In the dungeon exposed above, only Tau with high intellect and wielding weapons were wreaking havoc.

Even if each entity’s ability is stronger than the existing Tau.

It is not in a colony state like the taus encountered in nature, but there are few cases of facing large numbers.

There are no traps there, except for the collapsing floor.

Even if it is not blue gold, if adventurers with experience in the gold rank gather and move, they will be able to see the end without difficulty.

‘Was the boss simply stronger than the other Tau?’

A one-dimensional boss with a large size and great power.

Even so, a normal Tau can tear and shred people like paper with just one muscle.

What if your strength is stronger than that? Quite a bit of gold grade, if you get hit by a fist or a weapon, the minimum is a serious injury, and the maximum is an irretrievable death.

But that much movement is based on instinct and is simple.

If a few people are grounded, the veteran adventurers who have built up an eye will quickly pull out an estimate.

If there is blue gold, it will be an easy win.

If there is only a gold grade… Assuming that there is no character who moves impatiently out of greed.

If adventurers with matching hands and feet gather and move in perfect order with a chain of command.

Even if we can’t guarantee that no one will die, we will be able to see a neat end with minimal sacrifice.

…

‘The stomach is no fun.’

If the upper floor is a place where horned beasts run rampant.

What lies beneath the hidden peace?

Thud!

The door, which had not been opened for a long time, closed, scattering a cloud of dust.

“It’s underground, but it’s humid, so the air is bad, right?”

Alice, who had been listening as if she were talking to herself, nodded her head in surprise when the tip of her words turned to herself.

“Ah yes!”

After her affirmation, Alice raised her head, which had been bowed down.

She rolled her golden eyes in reverse order and looked around her, just as she said.

Moss reminiscent of a wetland is growing sparsely on the wall, probably because the water is flowing strongly not far away.

When I crossed the short hallway leading from the door, I saw a place that I couldn’t even see in front of me.

‘What is it… Another place?’

A place once again separated from the dungeon, like the entrance under a waterfall that is invisible until you enter it.

“Are you that curious?”

Roman asked giggling as he saw Alice in her arms wide-eyed and looking around her.

“Ah…”

In order to be taught by Platinum, you have to show an undisturbed, angular figure.

Even if I gave strength to my stomach, a loud voice did not come out.

Perhaps not expecting her answer, Roman smiled at Alice’s actions and walked while looking in front of her.

In the cavity that caught my eye, the plants that grew sparsely on the floor were emitting light and dispelling the darkness.

Smashed and collapsed stone pillars are scattered across the stream.

The shape of the pillar was unique, a shape familiar to Alice.

The feeling that the pillar that Tau was carrying on her shoulder, which had collapsed the floor, had been neglected for a long time.

– Poetry! Hiss!

Tero, rather than Alice, must have sensed something insidious inside, and her legs and tail, which were made of mud, trembled.

Crash-

Something comparable to the unpleasantness of a centipede sporting its excellent legs and walking around its ears.

Something moved quickly in the darkness on the other side, making a grotesque noise that clattered on the ground.

“…!”

Two red lights flashing hidden in the shadows.

She was only stared at from afar, but Alice couldn’t breathe.

Fear creeps up to the tip of your throat.

Yongin’s instinct stops his throat, wondering if his random exhalation might stimulate something hidden there.

“Breathe. It’s okay.”

A soft bass sound in my ears. In a gaze that does not feel tension or crisis at all.

The intangible reins that bound Alice’s body snapped.

The stability returned quickly, and the pores that had been clogged with fear were opened.

The place where the unknown monster was and the man’s arms seemed like a disconnected world.

“Haa…! Whoa…!”

“Breath slowly. Even if you feel out of breath, slowly.”

She is currently in the worst physical condition even after consuming food in the potion.

The pressure that would have ended with extreme vigilance with Alice’s usual skills would have become a condition that brought her to an abnormal state.

‘Still, my mental strength is strong.’

Breath returned, but left Alice in a cold sweat on her collapsed pillar.

As she wiped her sweaty forehead, Tero moved over her head as she noticed.

“Okay. Tero will protect Alice from now on.”

– Shiiyi!!

She raised her tail, moved her buds from side to side, gave Terro a thumbs up and turned her back to her determination.

Charreuk.

Gleipnir was naturally held in his hand, and he touched it gently with a feeling close to habit.

A black chain was wrapped around her right hand, covering the back of her hand.

Standing in the center of the overgrown glowing plants, they cast their gazes at their common owners.

“I want to get out before the sun goes down.”

Tadadak!

Roman glared at the monster hiding in the dark shadows and opened her mouth.

Sensing the alarm from the wild persimmon, she thumped the floor with her leg and opened the distance.

Is the intruder who came through the door a prey? Are you a strong person who will prey on you?

The situation has not yet been fully judged.

-Quiik!!

An intruder who closes the distance to himself without hesitation even if he makes a threatening sound.

The dominant sense is that there is no answer just by running around and avoiding the area.

The co-owner, who was driven to the edge of a cliff by the intuition that it was dangerous, to live.

He decided to use his weapon to repel the intruder.

…

The co-owner moved to hide behind a collapsed pillar, quietly closing the distance with Roman.

Kang!

A metallic sound echoed as Gleipnir struck a sharp black object between the collapsed pillars.

-Kirik!!

A monster appeared between the pillars as he scratched his throat with a sound that did not know whether it was anger or regret.

A charred shell with serrated claws.

A low posture that seemed to touch the floor and six legs running on either side of the body.

Yellow water droplets dripped from the hooked tail.

A named monster in the form of a scorpion whose official name is ‘Kamlran’.

The top of the dungeon is a bull and the bottom is a scorpion.

In astronomy, Scorpio and Taurus are opposites in the zodiacal zodiac.

‘Certainly, I’m sorry if the game doesn’t have that kind of setting.’

Even stronger than the Tau boss upstairs.

A low-level boss compared to Morphus, the owner of the Living Armor Dungeon.

In fact, it is an ambiguous position.

‘…No matter how much I think about it, this guy or the guy above him is useless.’

The poison that comes out of Kamran’s tail is deadly poison, but that much poison is easily obtainable.

The shell emits a peculiar stench.

There is only one known use in the game. Become fishing material.

If you chop the shell into small pieces and scatter it in a river or sea, an event will occur where fish flock to it.

Not catching something special there, but simply the degree to which the probability rises exponentially?

I don’t have much interest in fishing, so there’s no reason to put stinky ingredients in my inventory.

In the end, Camlann’s body is worse than the Tung Lu he ate while coming.

-Kirruru…

Even if you see a large scorpion threatening with its tail shaking, there is no sense of danger, so there is plenty of space in your head.

While drawing movements, I recalled several memories in an instant.

‘Aren’t scorpions also quite delicacies?’

A Chinese I met on the job in my previous life boasted that the scorpions salted and eaten were so delicious.

I have no intention of making or eating alcohol with that guy.

While watching, those thoughts came to my mind first.

-Kiriik··!!!

Did he even feel insulted knowing how the eyes looked at him?

It stabs its tail sharply and pushes in like a chariot using its huge body.

Whoo! Humming!

I thought, moving my head to avoid the awl-like tail.

‘If I hit this… I’ll just die.’

The intuition that Kamran would be cut in half the moment Gleipnir was struck down with an aura.

When the hell are you going to deal with these guys and move into a sensitive inner state?

Because I realized that if I don’t give my own handicap, I won’t be able to enter the state I want until I go back.

He cut off the mana flowing through his body and sealed it.

Widely!

I moved my entire body to avoid the claws and tail and grabbed the scorpion from behind.

– Kiik!!

Gleipnir was wrapped around the tail of Kamran, who was about to turn his massive body by tapping his six legs.

Kicking the stomach up, the huge scorpion rolled around in the cavity.

Kugoong!

It wasn’t because Camlann came into contact with a pillar or wall that he came to a halt after repeated frantic turns.

As it rolled, the chains coiled over the carapace pulled, stopping Kamlann from spinning.

Chareuk-!!

Roman landed on the glowing scorpion, untying the chains wrapped around his stiff body.

“Huh!”

The muscles and blood vessels in the forearm expanded as if they were bursting, and the coiled Gleipnir clamped down on Camlann’s armor-like body.

-Kikiiik!!!!!

Camlann’s struggling shell began to crack with a crackling sound.

‘My hands don’t taste bad.’

In order to increase muscle fatigue, Kamlan was pressed with pure physical ability.

Manara voluntarily discards the transcendental energy.

The taste of holding and tightening a huge struggling monster with only your grip.

Maybe this is what anglers say about the taste of their hands.

I have no intention of gaining anything here. There is no mercy and no hesitation in the pressing hands.

“Turn it off!”

Wrap the chain around your hand once more, clench your teeth, and close the gap to pull it.

Poududeuk!!

As Gleipnir burrowed with even greater force, Camlann’s shell was shattered.

A viscous liquid flowed through them.

– Kwyiyiik!!!

Compressed by simple ignorant muscular strength, Kamran sighed and sagged, and life activities stopped.

He pushed the crumpled and broken arthropods with his feet and freed Gleipnir.

I squeezed and opened my hand, which still felt tight.

“… It’s like exercise, so it’s pretty good.”

In the future, sticking to the method of introducing a handicap will help you train.

After pouring holy water on the cloth and wiping Gleipnir thoroughly, he sent it back.

He turned to the girl who was sitting on her pillar and staring blankly at himself.

It’s been a while since the situation was over.

Roman asked as he lightly hugged Alice who couldn’t come to her senses with her mouth open.

“Shall we leave now?”
