Chapter 135

135. Storm and tidal wave (1)
A few days after that.
[The maintenance of the airship ‘Capitalism’ has been completed!]
[You can send the airship on missions from now on. However, you can only participate in areas where summoning is permitted.]
Boo-woong.
The assembled Capitalism is undergoing a trial run.
The exposed interior was covered with a solid steel shell, and fuel lines were expanded and other facilities were renovated.
‘This is true.’
I clicked my tongue as I watched the airship circling around the space-time gap.
After clearing the 32nd floor, Amkena did not climb for nearly a week.
‘I thought I wanted to try it.’
I obtained an airship, but there were few usable sections.
Then, just in time, the permission to use was dropped on the 33rd floor. When you get a new car, it’s natural to want to drive it. There was no way my heart could not be moved.
“No problem with flotation. Good fuel efficiency. No damage seen.”
Radi, who was wearing a maintenance uniform, filled the ‘O’ on the airship checklist.
“I think I can go on a mission with this.”
“There are no facilities on board yet, no weapons installed. You haven’t even checked the flight, have you?”
said Katio as he came out of the cockpit.
The airship stopped at its original location.
“You said this place was the sea? You wouldn’t be able to fly anyway.”
“Yes, but…”
“If you want more maintenance, I don’t care.”
“It’s okay! It’s over here. Because I feel like I’m going to die every day.”
Katio said as if he was fed up and came down the stairs.
Dark circles were engraved under the eyes. It was the result of overtime work that lasted for about a week.
“I’ve been fooled. I’ve been fooled. It’s worse than Harla, this place! Damn it.”
Katio covered his eyes.
[‘Katio (★★★★)’ expresses his dissatisfaction!]
Amkena, recognizing Katio’s dissatisfaction, moved the control panel.
The screen changed to the gift shop.
[I present the ‘Warring Horse Statue’ to ‘Katio (★★★★)’!]
“How many times, what the hell? I don’t need anything like this!”
Katio threw the warhorse statue that appeared out of the air in disgust.
[‘Katio (★★★★)’ is disappointed to receive the ‘war horse statue’.]
[Lower favorability!]
I picked up the war horse statue that had been thrown on the floor.
object without an owner.
I decided to decorate the display case.
“What are you doing here anyway?”
“Can’t I?”
I put the statue in my arms and said.
“I came to see it because it seemed that the airship repair was finished.”
“The results are as you can see. First of all, the driving ability is fine. Sailing is possible. However…” ”
There are no facilities and weapons on board, you mean this.”
“This takes a little longer. It’s not just the two of us.”
I nodded.
It is not over just by fixing the exterior.
Now, the inside of the Capitalism was empty. In order to function properly, various facilities and loading weapons had to be installed.
“But why does that female sorceress keep hanging out next to her? The party capacity must be five.”
Katio tilted his head.
“You understand.”
I laughed and said
When training with Katio first started, Iolka was by his side.
In order to train together, they walked around the outskirts to train their stamina, and practiced fire and wind magic at the newly established magic training ground. I couldn’t participate in formation training.
a week after that.
‘Has there been any progress?’
The formation with Katio was roughly sorted out and the roles of the members were established, but Iolka did not change much. The degree from a gentle breeze to a gentle breeze.
Elementalists basically deal with only one attribute.
Wizards with two or more attributes are rare, and their probability of appearing is less than 10%. It is unlikely that Iolka would fall into that category.
‘He’s wandering around.’
What Iolka needs is not wind magic.
It was enough firepower to take the risk and use it.
Currently, Iolka is a high risk low return.
It was written after considering the risk from the time he was first summoned anyway. I had to know that in order to come back. I wanted to intervene when I was watching the scene where I was struggling, but I was silent because I felt like I had to realize it myself.
‘I’ll learn something on my own.’
Progress slowed down due to maintenance of the airship.
Now was the time to prepare for the attack on the 35th floor. After that, I went back to the inn after listening to Katio and Radi about all the details of the airship.
evening the next day.
[Gather 1 party!]
Amkena has gathered 1 party.
It’s been a while since I’ve been called, but everyone entered the gap of time and space with a calm expression.
because i was expecting it.
[The main dungeon is currently on the 33rd floor.]
[The door will open in 10 seconds. Get ready!]
[Recording the mission. Play history will be preserved.]
[Airships can be used.]
A message appeared indicating the number of floors of the mission.
One more notification.
“It’s the 33rd floor.”
“It must be continued on the ship.”
We were summoned to the field of mission while chatting nonchalantly.
slam.
The sound of waves hitting your ears.
The unique smell of the sea brushes your nose.
“…You’re here.”
Fria, who was sitting on the bow, looked back at us.
[Floor 33.]
[Mission Type – Search]
[Objective – Search the designated location!]
The mission window popped up.
Exploration continued from the 32nd floor.
[Teeling!]
[Different occurrences!]
[Sub-quests are renewed!]
‘…?’
[Subquest (branching type)]
[Goal – Summon the airship!]
[Reward – Hidden stage open]
A subquest all of a sudden.
The goal is even more absurd.
Not a mission to deal with or protect someone, just to call in an airship.
I saw and experienced numerous quests, but this level was not common.
The reward is also strange.
‘Hidden stage.’
Pick me up was one of the factors called lucky games.
If it’s a bonus stage, hints about the next floor are given, but I can’t predict the hidden stage at all.
If there is one thing for sure, it is that the difficulty of the missions can fluctuate wildly.
“Subquest? Didn’t you do it in the desert?”
Jenna looked into the air and said.
“Summon the Airship… The content is simple.”
“Suspicious.”
Belquist responded.
Freea came nearby.
“What are you talking about? Join me too.”
“Wait a minute. That’s our story.”
“I see…”
Freea made a sad face and withdrew.
[Do you want to ask the hero’s intention?]
[Yes (optional) / No]
[The hero’s intention is as follows.]
[Han – Slightly Negative]
[Xena – Neutral]
[Belquist – Slightly Negative]
[Nerissa – Neutral ]
[Katio – Neutral]
Amkena’s control window stopped.
seemed to be thinking.
‘Although I could make a suggestion.’
There is no guarantee that the answer is correct.
“Pria.”
“Why?”
“How long has it been since you left land?”
“It’s been over a month.”
one month.
It seems quite far from land.
As I fell silent, Amkena’s patience was stretched to the limit.
[Wizard kid!]
A familiar voice rang in my head.
It was Isel’s.
The first party looked around to see if everyone could hear it.
But the figure was not visible.
only the voice continues.
[The Master ordered the summoning of the airship.]
“From here?”
[Yeah, you know if I refuse, right?]
Katio looked at me.
It was a face asking what to do.
I shook my head.
[‘Party 1’ leader ‘Han(★★★)’ suggests rejecting the subquest.] You
can’t leave the strategy to chance.
If it’s a side quest, there should be plenty of opportunities.
You can kick a side gourd if you make a hasty decision.
As if my opposition was unexpected, Amkena stopped the operation for a moment.
[Do you accept the offer?]
[Yes (optional) / No]
I think I put up with it once.
Suspicious sub-quest ends here.
“Airship, isn’t it overhauled? Can I not use it?”
“Hold on for a moment. It looks suspicious just by looking at it.”
“I guess so.”
The early happenings on the 33rd floor have come to an end.
We took our places on the boat.
Even if it’s a mission, there’s not much to do.
Smaller species, such as merman and sharks, cannot damage large sailboats.
It was almost like a break.
‘Explore.’
I was able to get information about the destination from Freea.
At the end of the continental sea, which is said to be infinite, there is an ancient dragon temple. It seems that he saw the key shining there in a dream.
‘That’s so versatile.’
I dragged the hammock out onto the deck and sat down on it.
“It’s better than I thought. I wish my sister would have come too.”
Jenna was lying next to him.
“What are you thinking, brother?”
“It’s about the mission.”
“Mission, mission all day long. It’s not a machine, how about taking a little break? It’s a sub-stage. Nothing special, what.”
I said with a smile.
“There are a lot of guys who look at it funny and then die.”
“But… I’ve done it about 27 times so far, but there hasn’t been a big crisis.”
“There has been no crisis so far, and there is no guarantee that there will be such in the future.”
It’s a game of luck anyway.
There was also the possibility that a difficulty level that was harder than the boss stage would come out.
Although the odds are less than one in a thousand.
I also don’t rate it that high.
I’m just thinking about the 35th floor.
[‘Party 1’ has entered the special field ‘Region of Receive’.]
‘What is it?’
I lifted my back from the chair.
I looked around. Even though it’s not night, the surroundings are dark.
There were thick black clouds in the sky.
“what?”
Jenna also widened her eyes and looked away.
‘Special field.’
I don’t feel good.
I got up from my chair and went inside the ship.
Freea’s room was in the first room in the hallway on the first floor.
After knocking, I opened the door and entered.
“I’m sorry, Pria, but I need to turn the boat around. Information…
”
Freea’s eyes were open.
An unpleasant voice that sounded like scratching metal escaped from his mouth.
‘Is this…mind control!’
“Listen, false champion.”
Freea’s mouth moved wildly.
“We are not hunted like other Guardians. We will be the ones who hunt. I will make you pay for breaking the law.”
“…What are you?”
“The hunt has begun
.
”
Smack .
..”
[Warning!]
A warning message flashed in front of my eyes.
I put Freea on the bed and immediately came out to the deck.
Kung!
At that moment, the deck shook violently.
“Kuh!”
“Oh, brother!”
“What is it? ”
“I don’t know! Suddenly…!”
With the sound of a bomb exploding, something like a huge pillar soared in a straight line
.
[
Kraken Lv
.
From the third to the fourth to the fifth,
the legs wrapped around the belly from all sides.
Hundreds of suckers on each leg had
blades
.
The boat that couldn’t bear the weight was staggering, and
if it continued like this, it would be pulled into the water
. Sever what is attached to the ship!”
I shouted
to the members
rushing
out
of the ship
. ”
Senpai
, what happened!”
“I don’t know!”
I looked down at the railing,
a huge black shadow writhing beneath the surface of the water.
Dark clouds in the sky.
The wind got stronger,
and it started to rain before
I knew it.
Kung! Koogung!
Intense waves rose from the surface.
Every time it hit, the ship was lightly shaken.
“This, this is sudden…!”
Fria came out to the deck as if she came to her senses.
I pointed to the steering wheel and shouted.
“Pria, get behind the wheel. Turn the ship!”
“Han, this…”
“I don’t have time to explain.”
“Oh, I got it!”
Fria gasped and ran to the helm on
deck. Turned to the right. The ship slowly began to rotate.
[Hehehahahaha!]
A voice that scratched my head rang out.
A column of water that seemed to be several meters on the side of the ship soared, and a black figure came out. It
was none other than the main body of the Kraken.
However, all legs were left intact. It was torn.
Bang!
The water column gushed out again.
And..
[It’s the start of a fun hunt!]
He chewed the kraken that floated in the air with one bite.
[Danger!] [Danger!]
