Chapter 674
Chapter 674: Dream (1)
One of the fields of Star’s End on the 9th floor. A poisonous lava field.
Since it is the highest tier, its risk is incomparable to the floors below, and there are also annoying field effects
here
. Even if you raise your resistance to the point where you get a judgment, it doesn’t work here…
‘MP cannot be recovered naturally…’
Well, it’s not impossible at all, but anyway…
Since it’s a 99% reduction, it’s more comfortable to think that MP is not actually full…
Of course, this part is my [ [Soul Diving] You can attack with the same skill or one method within the field… but the
real biggest problem is…
“Warning: Be careful of explosions!”
All kinds of things explode here…
Just like this…
“Uh-huh. .··The earth swells…?”
“It explodes! Everyone avoid it!”
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Even as you walk down the street, poisonous lava erupts from the ground and explodes…
“…Now wait a minute! “The monster’s body is swelling!”
“Avoid talking time!”
Even the monsters in battle explode right in front of your nose, as if they were bombs…
POOOOOOOO!
Sometimes an explosion just happens in the air without any sign…
And the biggest problem here is…
Chamaaaaaa-!!
When it explodes, thick poisonous liquid scatters everywhere·
“The character is (medium) poisoned·”
However, it is not the highest level of poisoning and is only intermediate level, but in fact, this is meaningless·
Since the poison resistance level is fixed to 0 here·
Cheeeee. Yikes-!
Oh, it stings so much…
If it had been in its original state, it would have been adjusted to a low grade thanks to the resistance value and even that would have been resolved on its own…
“Detox…”
As I briefly stated the matter without saying much, the GM rushed over and casted a spell. And this was our party’s The same goes for Jaina, the only healer·
“Healing·”
“···It’s done·”
As you can see, the roles of wizards and priests are important in the ‘Poisonous Lava Field’·
In order to not increase the addiction level, not only must you periodically detoxify, but also HP consumption also needs to be continuously managed…
However, this is where another problem arises…
“Oh! With lava! “There’s lava over there!!”
Lava fruit·
When wandering around a poisonous lava field, you can sometimes find a small tree with only three fruits on it·
FYI, if you eat this, the main resource consumed will be restored·
“Grandpa Jaina Havellion! “Share it yourselves!”
It goes without saying, but the lava department had to give priority to healers and wizards…
“Um… white tiger? “I’m slowly running out of soul power, so I can’t manifest my supernatural abilities…”
“So what should I do?”
“Can’t you just give me one pill? If it continues like this, it won’t be of any help in battle-”
“I just need to get hit anyway, so are you being too greedy?”
“····”
As most of the lava fruit found went into the mouths of healers and wizards, the MP of the remaining roles was consumed endlessly…
except for me, of course…
「The character casted [Soul Dive] ·」
「Soul power is regenerated in proportion to the consumed soul power」
Thanks to the deep sea giant’s active skill, I was able to periodically recover MP and maintain a certain amount ·
Rek Aures, who chose [Blood of the Giant] Differently…
“… I truly envy you, Baron Yandel…”
So, you
should have taken the green essence too. How important is MP in this game?
· Don’t covet things like lava · Understand?”
“I understand…”
Aures looks sullen and steps back…
However, it wasn’t just him who was in a bad situation, it was the same for everyone…
“I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve been shooting arrows normally…”
“Is that the same for me? “Stop complaining, okay?”
“···Ryo Ryokai·”
“Look at the pronunciation? Are you pro-Japanese? “It’s not Ryokai, okay, understand?”
“Baekho… But what are pro-Japanese groups?”
“There is such a thing…”
Lee Baek-ho and Bryant only battle monsters with normal attacks to save as much MP as possible.
In terms of chess, it is a situation that is no different from starting with a heavy vehicle and artillery… What is a little funny here is that it is still hunting. Does that mean it’s done…
「Popensis has been defeated· EXP +7」
Well, it gets incredibly difficult from level 3 onward, and if a level 2 appears, there will be no choice but to run…
‘···Fortunately, I haven’t seen a level 2 yet…’
Still, it’s the most dangerous. Is it because the northern part of the poisonous lava field is blocked?
The level 2 monsters I was worried about are nowhere to be seen…
Excited!
Of course, that doesn’t mean you can let your guard down, but…
“Baron, I don’t think it’s too much, so why don’t you go out and rest for a while?”
“···Let’s do that…”
We were exploring the poisonous lava field and filling in the blank areas on the map. When it got too overwhelming, we took a break by leaving the poisonous lava field. It
was a shortcut we often used when exploring the 9th floor.
The field effect is removed the moment you leave the area…
‘… This is also a shortcut that can be used since you are only exploring the southern tip…’
Anyway, how much time has passed since you explored the
poisonous lava field? Map of the area corresponding to the poisonous lava field. Just when everything was filled and I thought the Hans effect might be over…
“Monument stone!” “It’s a tombstone!!”
A tombstone similar to the one seen in the ancient land was discovered.
“…There is something like an unknown picture drawn here too!”
“It’s probably not a picture, it’s just text…”
“Hahaha! This wizard friend is so cool! Do you think I’d be fooled by something like that even if I didn’t learn anything? “How can this be written?”
“····”
Although it was similar to what we saw in the ancient land, it was something we had discovered for the first time in a very long time, so we stopped the exploration and started investigating the tombstone again.
But…
“The tombstone in the ancient land and the inscriptions The letters are different, but the content cannot be interpreted, so it has no meaning… Other than that, everything else is the same… Even the fact that no information can be obtained other than that it is solid…” There is no way that
the investigation that failed last time will succeed this time… At least. Based on my previous experience of wasting time, I was able to complete this investigation quickly.
“So you’re saying there’s nothing more we can find out?”
“Yes, that is the case for now…”
So, without wasting any more time here, I recorded the location of the monument in detail on the map and passed…
After that, I walked around to fill in the blank parts on the map…
And…
“In the end, the monument was “I haven’t found anything except one…”
And so the search for the poisonous lava field ended…
“Then what do you want to do now?”
I chuckled while listening to the words of Bryant, an archer who doubles as an explorer.
What can I do?
There are two more places I haven’t visited yet.
“I’m going to Dream Falls…”
I really don’t want to go here, but I have no choice, right?
***
「The character has entered a special area·」
「Field effect – Dream Waterfall is granted·」
***
Dream Waterfall·
It is safe to say that this field is actually the final ordeal of the 9th floor Star’s End·
That’s right 10 Not only is there a portal to the floor beyond here… but it is
a field with a concept and level of difficulty that can only be expressed as
‘Damn right…’…
‘The character falls asleep periodically…’
There is only one field that ends with just one line. Effect ·
However, when playing, there is nothing more annoying than this ·
Seuuuuuu ·
A calm lake that emits bright light as if it contains the Milky Way ·
Passing over it in a boat ·
With three sleeping companions ·
“This time, three people People have fallen asleep…”
“Jaina Destruction Grandpa Havellion… These three most important people are missing…” ”
I’ll have to hope that no more people fall asleep until the three of them wake up…” ”
This is assuming that all three wake up. That’s right…”
The moment they enter this lake, the characters fall into sleep periodically…
Of course, that doesn’t mean they just sleep and suck honey, but they have to fight illusions and survive alone inside…
In a way, it’s the [Soul of Soul] written by Cariathea, the special boss of Ice Rock. It is a similar effect to [Ham]…
‘The biggest difference is that even if you can’t wake up on your own, you can wake up from outside…’
Like the lava in the poisonous lava field, there is an item in Dream Falls that can wake up a sleeping fellow character…
Problem It may be much harder to see than the lava fruit, but…
A boat moving slowly over a beautiful lake like a picture.
By
the way, this boat is Lee Baek-ho’s.
I thought about taking out my boat, but the last time I rode it, I liked his boat a little better. Well,
in fact, it is a subtle difference that is meaningless, but
if I take my boat out and it breaks down, I will have to pay for repairs again, so I got on board without saying anything.
“Can’t you speed up the backhoe a little more?”
“What did you hear the last time you passed by here? You said that if you increase the speed, monsters will jump out…”
“Oh, I did… I forgot…” This
is one of the annoying things about the Dream Falls…
It’s not impossible to increase the speed, but if you do that, the monsters that were asleep at the bottom of the water will wake up and attack you…
The only way is to take a specially made boat and move quietly and quickly…
‘This ship isn’t designed for that…’
Well, even if you explore the 9th floor, you won’t get to Dream Falls unless you go up to the 10th floor… In the first place. It’s also a problem that can be solved by just moving slowly…
“Anyway, be quiet… It’ll be annoying if you make a lot of noise and monsters show up…” ”
Oh, I understand…”
Aures lowered his voice in case Lee Baek-ho would scold him, and said to the archer Brai. He approaches me and quietly asks,
“Baron, what will you do if you don’t find anything on Mount Yongol?”
“Then we will have to investigate under the water here…” “
… From then on, the level of difficulty will really increase tremendously…”
“I can only hope that that doesn’t happen…”
“Yes…”
After that, the ship slowly ships. I drove forward and didn’t encounter any monsters… It
was a peaceful time to the point where I forgot that it was a dangerous place…
Of course, it was only for those who were awake…
“Whoa… I finally woke up… I thought I was going to die…”
“Sleep well, Grandpa Destruction.” “Why do you look like that when you wake up?”
“I just had a slightly unpleasant dream…”
“Hey… when you say that, I’m curious?”
As time passed, one by one, starting with the GM, they came to their senses, and it wasn’t long before the others fell asleep.
“This time, it’s Bryant, Aures, and Baek-ho Lee’s
turn.” Baek-ho Lee was unable to overcome the field effect and fell down as if he had fainted.
He was seen sound asleep. As I look at it, an impulse blooms…
A thought that I could easily solve if I
just throw it overboard like this… ‘… I have to get out of here first…’
I shake my head and throw away the desire that had bloomed in an instant…
Then I look at the map and see Lee Baek-ho. How much longer did they drive the boat instead?
“Oh… I really feel bad every time this happens…” “
Yes… I think it’s an illusion on the 4th floor, but it’s not like that here…”
Lee Baek-ho First, the rest of the people wake up, and then the next person falls asleep…
and…
‘What is this?’
Everyone keeps falling asleep except me…
Well, falling asleep is completely random, so it doesn’t make sense…
‘Is there anything bad?’
Since it is an area where people only suffer if they fall asleep for no reason, I just thought I was lucky and passed it on—
excited!
…No, isn’t this a dangerous situation?
Immediately after I suddenly had that thought, I became anxious that I was the only one who couldn’t fall asleep…
And that anxiety grew as time went by…
Surprisingly, he kept falling asleep without me… And
that was until we reached the end of the map. Until·
“Baron, why do you look like that?”
“···Nothing·”
If you say something for no reason, you will become Mr.
“By the way, I will be arriving soon·”
I decided not to have any more anxious thoughts and focused on other things·
Cheaaaaaaaaaa!
As a little more time passed, the faint sound of water became louder, and soon the reason why this place was called ‘Dream Falls’ and not Dream Lake appeared before my eyes. “Wow, it’s
always spectacular to see.”
The world the ancient people must have thought of. At the end of…
Water flows down a huge hole in the center of the lake, forming a huge waterfall…
For reference, two-thirds of the waterfall was stopped because a gray border was crossing this waterfall…
“ Instead of looking around, increase the output of the propulsion device… It’s okay if the sound gets a little louder from here… If you get sucked down, it’s over…” ”
Old story…”
Our route from now on is to start from here, drive the boat, and reveal the map of the entire lake…
Therefore, just as he was about to move as he had planned in advance…
“…something is coming from below…”
Grandfather of Destruction hurriedly mutters something on behalf of the sleeping Bryant… Although
it was difficult to hear at first due to the sound of the waterfall…
“ … “Turn it!”
The sounds and facial expressions were enough to recognize that something was urgent.
It was safe to say that it was at the same time.
[Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
!! The GM who was doing the work was also asleep, but the absence of the GM was not felt that much…
That’s because he’s a very famous guy…
“… Drizen…”
A level 1 phantom species, Drizen…
Like Cariathea, the wizard of the glaciers, only found in that area. A kind of ‘special boss’ that appears·
“I’m tired of this…”
This time, I didn’t even need to shout loudly first·
Buwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaut?
As soon as he sees the guy, Lee Baek-ho increases the output of the propulsion device to the maximum.
As a result, the noise increases tremendously, but now is not the time to worry about such trivial things.
“The monsters that have been sleeping for a long time are
waking up. ” If it is there, it’s over immediately·
「The character has entered the range of [Dreaming Pond]·」
「All harmful effect damage inflicted on Drizen is nullified·」
Even if we die alone, we can’t catch that monster bastard·
Even if it’s the same level 1. It’s a different level from the ‘Kashan’ I caught at the library…
This is that guy’s home ground in the first place…
In fact, it’s not easy to say whether he’ll be able to escape unharmed…
‘Could it be that the Hans effect has finally activated…?’
As soon as I discovered Dryzen, a weak thought began to dominate my mind…
“…what a mess…”
I don’t know what
Hans
is
… We have to keep our heads up…
Only then can we get through this crisis well…
At that time when I was thinking about that and making up my mind…
“··· Huh?”
Suddenly, I feel dizzy as if I had taken a sleeping pill.
And at the same time…
“Field effect – Dream Waterfall has been activated…” The
sight before my eyes begins to spin
and becomes blurry at the same time. I felt that same feeling when I passed Dream Waterfall in a circle the other day. It was a sensation…
“This… Run… Fuck…”
For some reason, it didn’t explode the whole time…
“Why… at this time…”
With those words, the body that lost its balance leans forward…
But was it because of the shaking of the boat that was speeding up so much? To make matters worse
,
the body that was barely holding on to the railing falls out as if thrown out.
“Baron…!”
The surrounding sounds become faint…
Plop!
The body that fell below the surface of the water sinks quickly…
But even in that critical situation, there was nothing I could do…
“The character falls asleep…”
… Nimiral…
