Surviving the Game as a Barbarian

83 Fire Sewer (4)

I don’t know exactly when.

Only when I noticed.

“Misha? Dwalky? Hikurod?”

Everyone was frozen like a stone statue.

‘What the hell?’

At the same time as you feel your doubts, information that you have never seen before comes into your eyes.

Very thin and long saliva.

They are nailed to the necks of their comrades one by one.

The important thing here is… … .

‘Perhaps the same thing happened to me with saliva.’

stiff neck muscles

And that tingling sensation is spreading downwards.

「The character is addicted to ‘basilisk paralytic poison’.」

「The physical level of the character is 300 or higher.」

「Poison effect is reduced by half.」

Sensing the threat, the heart starts beating like crazy.

On the other hand, the brain calmly gave orders.

what i have to do right now

slurp-

The shrill arms lifted the shield and covered the upper body.

The legs are slightly bent, lowering the balance of the body so that it can react at any time.

“… … .”

A stillness that squeezes the neck.

In the midst of it, even concentrating on the sound, even concentrating on breathing.

Knock- Knock- Dock-

There is the sound of dripping water in the distance.

And that’s all.

But I had no doubts.

Like stepping on a goblin trap.

Obviously, the enemy is around here.

“… … .”

A trembling silence followed for a few seconds.

It feels like every nerve cell in your body is on a stand.

fault.

Then, at least a little bit, you hear a sign.

It’s hard to even call it the sound of footsteps… It was like a stone shavings rolling in the wind.

‘… … Is it a stealth skill?’

I made a quick decision.

I don’t know what it is, but the poison is slowly spreading through my body.

So at a time like this… … .

“The character has used [Feral Eruption].”

It would be better to see the match somehow.

That would be a little more likely.

“Behel—la ah ah ah ah!!!”

Shout out with all your might.

Of course, unlike monsters, the ‘threat value’ doesn’t absolutely work for humans, but… … .

This part of the study was completed last day.

[Umm… Whoops, it was a very strange feeling. My head knows that nothing’s dangerous, but it’s like my body is telling me that I should just run away… … .]

When exposed to [Feral Eruption], those with weak energy feel fear. Therefore, there may be cases where they do not play the role of ‘provocation’ and run away.

But, conversely, if the subject is a militant person… … .

[Somehow, I felt like I had to get rid of it quickly. Oh, of course, before you turn big. After becoming huge, I felt similar to Dwalkie.]

Some degree of ‘provocation’ is possible.

So, what about the mysterious enemy who hides in the dark?

“It’s a strange feeling, Barbarian.”

I figured it would too.

Well, to say that it is strange is the line that should be made here.

I don’t know what they did, but I hear voices from the front and back at the same time.

But aside from the problem of not knowing where the enemy is.

‘Wait, something sounds familiar… … .’

I was stunned.

The voice I had just heard was that of a woman.

It was a little husky, but it was obvious.

‘Who the hell are you?’

The brain, feeling the question, combines the keywords.

A ‘woman’ who hides like an ‘assassin’ and shoots a ‘paralyzing stinger’.

… … I remembered

“It was you.”

The psychopath I met in the land of the dead.

It must have been that year.

***

Did you have any intention of hiding your identity?

“… I didn’t know you could tell them apart just by your voice.”

Soon she appeared from the front.

A slender body of a little over 170.

A burning sting and a half-mutilated back of the right ear. Everything was the same as back then, except that the clothes he was wearing were casual clothes.

Tub.

Then she takes a step forward and closes the distance.

To be honest, I was sweating profusely.

Recently, it has grown explosively and even got the nickname “Little Balkan”… … .

“You’ve gotten a lot stronger, Barbarian. Even if you hit it, you’re still moving.”

Well, anyway, it still won’t be a bar for this b*tch.

‘Active on the 8th floor, an explorer who can even write Aurors… … .’

Cancer alone has no answer.

But I just don’t want to die.

It empowers the hands holding the shield and mace, and rearms the frightened mind.

Looking at me like that, the woman asks

“Is it because of my colleagues that I don’t run away?”

Well, guess who’s not a psychopath b*tch.

The feeling of being curious about such a thing is really creepy.

“The question is from me. You must have kept your promise, but why do you want to kill me now?”

I swallowed my saliva and asked.

I was curious about the motive for the action. Well, knowing that might come up with some other way.

but… … .

“Do you want to kill me?”

She furrows her eyebrows and tilts her head.

“You were the first to open the door and break in, barbarian.”

“… … door?”

“Tell me. Who have you heard about this place?”

‘What the hell is he talking about?’

For some reason, the conversation has shifted from the beginning.

I asked bluntly.

“I don’t understand, so tell me. broke in? Where are you talking about here?”

The woman frowned again.

You seem to have realized that there is a big problem with this conversation.

“… … How did you open the door?”

“If it was that magical thing in the sewer, I smashed it down with a mace.”

“It’s broken… … ?”

“Is there any problem?”

The woman closed her eyes for a moment at my confident question, and then shook her head as if she understood it.

“No, no.”

As a top-level explorer, he doesn’t seem to believe in magic blindly like a dwarf or a dwarf.

I’m just asking if I’m curious as to why.

“But why did you break it?”

“Because this b*tch ran here.”

At that moment, Elisha, who was carrying it, naturally lowered it to the floor.

Actually, I’ve been annoyed before.

I didn’t even have time to do that, so I was carrying it on my back, but if a battle breaks out, it’s sure to get in the way.

“… … That Karui priest who was wanted a while ago.”

“I’m glad you know. So, is the misunderstanding cleared up?”

“The misunderstanding has been cleared up.”

“Then I’m glad. I had a great time meeting you. we’ll just go Oh, you don’t even have to bring potions. I’ll take care of the rest—”

“Stop, once you know about this place, I can’t just let you go.”

“… … Even if I destroy the video recorder and swear to keep everything that happened today a secret?”

“Because the situation was different back then.”

Shiba… It’s also not possible

I cleared my weak heart.

Since I heard the affirmative answer from that year, I have only one option left.

therefore-

shudder.

I took off the armor I was wearing.

“… … What are you doing all of a sudden?”

Whether or not the other person is questioning.

He took off his gaiters, took off his helmet and shoes, and threw them at random.

and… … .

“Hey.”

spoke

Fortunately, the other party agreed to the conversation.

“… … ?”

If you have something to say, do it.

I spoke quickly.

“Do you know of two ways to make people angry?”

“… … What?”

“The first thing is to stop talking in the middle. And another one… … .”

“The other one… … ?”

I do not know either.

nobody told me that

“Behel—la ah ah ah ah ah!!!”

Dash forward with all your might.

I hope that the nerves of that year have been dispersed at least a little bit.

Pull the arm holding the mace behind your shoulder.

The woman, who was startled for a moment, smiled as if she had noticed my trick later.

“He’s funny.”

After all, dashing on this street wouldn’t be too embarrassing for you.

So what about this one?

Whoo-!

He swings his arms forward and throws the mace.

swish-!

You avoid it too.

The woman who turned her body sharply to avoid the mace looked at me with a keen eye for something.

“… … ?”

It seems unexpected that a barbarian would throw a weapon at the beginning… … .

I threw the remaining shield in one hand without any regrets.

Whik!!

A shield that rotates and flies like a disk that is worth practicing on a day off.

Its speed is incomparable to that of a mace.

but… … .

“… … !”

That needlessly flexible b*tch easily dodged the shield by bending her back.

It wasn’t disappointing as it was expected.

Tadat-!

Taking advantage of the moment when the mace and shield were apart, he sprinted to the ground once more and continued the dash.

As soon as the physical figure exceeds the realm of ordinary people, the distance narrows in an instant.

‘now.’

Extend your hands forward as if sliding to b*tch Elisha.

That year’s expression was still relaxed.

Just ‘Look at this?’ kind of face.

Tadat-

In fact, that b*tch was exactly out of the gap by taking three steps back.

This time it wasn’t too bad.

Because in the first place, I stretched out my hand so that I could clearly see it.

‘As expected.’

A straight passage that is difficult to say that it is wide.

If a large barbarian rushes in from the front, the only way to escape is behind.

Of course, there would have been no answer if I had taken a step back… … .

Even then, I would only move enough to avoid it.

Rather than a personality problem, it must be the aspect of efficiency that naturally comes from pursuing a higher state.

‘I can go to Plan A.’

Therefore, [Giantization] was cast at the right time.

This is a linkage machine inspired by Liakis’ dramatic survival.

「The character has cast [Giantization].」

The body grew and the arms lengthened accordingly.

The distance that should have been short of three steps is immediately narrowed.

“… … !”

For the first time, that year’s expression shows a little bit of embarrassment.

I haven’t even started properly yet.

He immediately grabbed my shoulder and pulled me towards him.

Significant resistance was felt at the fingertips.

However… … .

“you.”

It is different from the past, when even the power was pushed back.

That’s because I was a novice barbarian at level 1 with 0 integers.

“I need to build up some strength.”

A corpse golem, a vampire, and an opponent dragged helplessly by the power left me by the orc hero.

“み!”

He clenched his neck so that it could not be avoided, and thrust his fist into the face.

Puff-!

Heavy sound and taste.

Again, one-shot suppression was too much.

therefore-

‘Once more.’

The fist recovered quickly is put down again.

But at that moment.

The movement of that year is sensed in my visual acuity, which has been raised to the limit. Suddenly, he came to his senses and wielded a dagger.

‘Are you going to cut off my whole wrist?’

I made a quick decision.

That year is an Auror user.

Therefore, physical resistance, bone strength, anti-magic or whatever, it doesn’t matter much. I’m sure that dagger will cut through my arm before it touches my opponent.

so… …

‘I’m going to plan B.’

Stop the outstretched fist.

It’s not like I’m going to buy myself now or anything like that.

I just thought it was unreasonable to take damage unilaterally.

I’m not afraid of getting hurt at all.

If that’s what you must do to live.

‘Flesh explosion.’

The moment I finished imaging in my head.

A strong explosion erupted from the hand holding the opponent.

Pugh-!

bursting flesh.

and acid skin.

Chewy profit-!

That bad boy only frowned but didn’t moan once.

But wouldn’t there be a pain tolerance stat?

Even if he endured the pain, for a very short time, that year’s movements became stiff.

‘Okay then, plan A again.’

Dodging the dagger that was being swung, he put his fist into his abdomen.

Knowing that this is an opportunity that will never come again, I keep going as if there is no next time.

Puff-! puck! puck! puck!

Like a dealer with a paper body, a response came out soon after.

“… … !”

Blood leaking out of the mouth as if the intestines were chewed.

As soon as you see it, a tremendous amount of excitement rushes into your head, enough to feel the pressure in your eyes.

Shiba, the only thing you can really beat this b*tch is—

「Amelia Rainwales has cast [Self-Replica].」

When the brain sensed hope.

Suddenly, instinct sounded the alarm and sent a warning.

The cause was really simple.

“Barbarian.”

… … Why am I hearing voices from behind?

He’s definitely got me here.

Tadadat-!

Without realizing it, I stopped punching and looked back. A woman who looked exactly the same was running towards me.

‘Fuck.’

I was not really curious as to why this could happen.

[Self-replication].

A super rare essence that can only be obtained from the guardians of the 4th floor rift ‘Doppelganger Forest’.

“If you ate the essence of a vampire, you should be fine.”

The woman who was holding me murmured.

And that moment.

「Amelia Rainwales has cast [Suragak].」

The woman’s body took a big leap, then rotated in mid-air and kicked into my face.

Aww-!!

A shock as if the head had been blown away.

No, is this really flying?

tuk.

A heavy impact sound from the side of the ear.

dark vision.

Consciousness fades as if a cell phone with a dead battery is turned off.

“You, Mi… … .”

Fuck.
