Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian - Chapter 171
Episode 171 Burning (3)
After the fact that [Wings of Greed] was won was revealed.
Raven treated Einar like a puppet and tested its performance.
first thing that was most important.
“I can’t fly…!!”
Flight with wings is impossible.
Also, since it was made of light, it was impossible to attack and defend using it, and it was impossible to even move the wings by one’s own will.
Wings that move according to the mood.
Pudeuk food deuk!
I guess I don’t feel like that.
But you also have to think about the balance.
If this one can fly, it’s a dog scam, right?
“…but it suits them very well.”
“Yeah, you really look very strong.”
“Really?!”
At the word that it looks strong, the wings started to fly again.
Pudeuk-!
Well, just looking at this makes me feel good.
Well, from what I can see, the sharpness of the wings is considerable.
The effect of sucking in the surrounding air every time it recovers is also pretty flashy.
“If I had known it would be like this, it would have been okay for Mr. Yandel to have it, isn’t it regrettable?”
“huh?”
“The vampire essence is gone, so there is no ability related to health regeneration.”
Oh, that’s what you said.
But it’s not an integer that suits me.
First of all, passive doesn’t suit tanks.
In the first place, the regenerative power can be taken care of to some extent with just the stat, and there are much better ones, but why?
‘More than anything, he’s compatible with Einar.’
The effect of [Scars of Explosion] is simple.
Explodes when hitting the same part twice.
In the game, it felt like a crit.
To increase accuracy or to explode a little better against dull monsters?
But with [Repeat Slash], the story is different.
“Then let’s move on.”
Soon after resuming exploration, a group of monsters appeared and everyone could clearly see Einar’s growth with their own eyes.
Quaang!
An explosion that explodes as soon as [Repeat Slash] is used.
The head of the 7th grade monster exploded immediately and disappeared as light.
Its power was enough to make even the watching Raven bewildered.
“……Did you think of this and feed Einar-san the essence? Just because of one guess that it explodes when you hit the same spot I said?”
Well, it’s not a guess to me.
Of course, I couldn’t say that, so I was just talking about it.
“You are the magician of our team. Of course I trust your judgment.”
“Uh……. thank you for that……”
As expected, Raven kept his mouth shut without answering anything. In the meantime, Einar couldn’t control his excitement and was wandering among the monsters.
“Behel—LAAAAA!!!!”
An explosion that blooms every time you swing your sword.
Quaang! Quaang!
Thanks to the twin stats (strength and agility) attached to Berthas’ essence, his movements are much smoother and more powerful than before.
Of course, the injuries continued to pile up on my body because I wasn’t pulling aggro from the front…
“Wings!!!”
When [Life Absorption] and [Wings of Greed] were cast together, the wound healed quickly.
‘Am I getting the character concept at this level?’
Named Berserker Barbarian.
I watched Einar’s battle without hiding my satisfaction.
I also had a bit of envy.
Until I knew Shield Baba, I always developed characters that way.
Exciting battles are a man’s romance itself.
‘……Wouldn’t it be bad to raise the strength level and make them use dual wielding swords?’
I thought for a moment.
A barbarian warrior who spins like a whirlwind and roams the battlefield with huge greatswords in each hand.
But there’s even a light wing skin on the back?
Oh wow.
‘Dogs are cool.’
Perhaps vicarious satisfaction is possible.
“Bjorn!”
“Okay. I’ll help you now.”
However, the character’s perfection was still low enough to overcome the numerical inferiority, so I intervened and finished the battle.
But would that alone be impressive enough?
“A giant bag that can grow this strong with just one essence…”
Misha looked at her with a bit of envy.
After all, he doesn’t have an Essence higher than level 5 yet.
You might feel deprived when you see Einar, who ate a 5th grade essence on a 4th grade.
First of all, he is also a year 0 explorer like me.
“Don’t worry. You will become stronger too.”
“Ugh…….”
Mischa suddenly lost her temper, but there was nothing she could say right away other than this.
I’m not going to get the essence until I’ve got everything I want from Hellfire Chasm.
Will it take half a year?
It would take several years to acquire the sword, which is the core of the freezing dual wielding sword.
‘Now that I’m on the 5th floor, there’s a lot of work to do.’
After that, they collected only the magic stones and continued their exploration.
A huge forest with blazing trees exuding a desolate beauty.
As we progressed while defeating the monsters, time passed quickly and the 30th day dawned.
[08:10]
Only 16 hours left until the end of the labyrinth.
‘You’ve finally arrived. It was close.’
A huge tombstone appeared between the trees.
“Everybody stop!”
“Are you saying it’s a trap?”
“I don’t know. But it could be.”
As soon as he sees the artificial sculpture, Raven is wary.
It’s a very desirable posture, but…
‘It’s just a tombstone.’
The tombstone had no function in the game.
For reference, even if you go to the field in the other direction, the same tombstone exists and functions like a kind of landmark.
An existence like a sign that this is the center.
Well, it could just be that there is a hidden factor that I haven’t figured out…
‘That’s unlikely.’
I was suspicious too, so I tried all sorts of shit, but nothing came out.
“Then what are you going to do?”
“First of all, prepare for battle. If you enter the radius, it may be the kind that is summoned.”
“I will.”
In this situation, ignoring the wizard’s opinion didn’t look good, so he obediently followed the instructions.
Fortunately, Raven was cautious but not the type to waste time meaninglessly.
“I can’t feel the magic. But just in case you don’t know, I’ll slowly approach you.”
Soon, they gradually closed the distance and stood in front of the tombstone.
Of course there was no such thing as a monster popping out.
“Mr. Yandel, would you like to touch the tombstone?”
Yes, are you making me do this unconditionally?
I just put my hand on it because I knew it was safe.
Again, no response whatsoever.
“Can I stay a while and check things out?”
“If you want.”
Even at Raven’s request, I just said yes.
Still, since it’s a real version, I decided that I might be able to get clues that I couldn’t figure out in the game.
30 minutes passed like that.
“Stop Raven and go.”
“Oh no! An artificial building standing in a forest like this? It must have a story!”
Apparently, he also fell into the same trap as me.
How many months did I spend on that idea?
“Uh, I think I’ll figure it out if I do a little more…”
A little bit, a little bit.
“Isn’t there a lot of time. If you’re really curious, go out later and look for related records.”
When I cut and drew a line, Raven also put aside his lingering feelings and followed my words. Whatever the case may be, he’s the kind of person who doesn’t like being a nuisance to anyone.
Simply put, it is easy to handle.
“Okay then go.”
After that, I explored the surroundings, focusing on the tombstone.
The reason is that there might be something nearby. Everyone agreed without saying anything, since we couldn’t go far anyway, even if we had to go for the rest of the day.
‘It’s time to come out after this much, but…’
It was when they devoted about two hours to the search.
“Bjorn! Look over there!”
Misha pointed to one place and shouted.
“……house?”
In the middle of a forest full of monsters with burning everywhere.
A two-story brick house stood there.
‘Huh, I don’t have to come again next time.’
It was exactly the place I was looking for.
***
The charred wooden door swings open effortlessly.
profit.
saying that
It was kind of annoying, so I just grabbed it and threw it on the floor.
“Could you please stop breaking anything over there?”
“……Nagging.”
“No, not nagging—”
“Okay. Be careful.”
They say so much about a broken door.
“……It’s kind of a spooky place.”
The interior of a building that looks like ruins.
We confirmed that there were no monsters using magic, but we carefully searched inside because there might be a trap.
Still, it didn’t take long.
It was a situation where the sofa, the outer wall, and everything were burnt and only the skeleton was left.
In an instant, I finished the search on the first floor and went up to the second floor.
And I found a book in what seemed to be a bedroom.
“Raven! This is your favorite book!”
A relatively intact book, probably because it was inside the drawer.
Of course, the outside was all charred, but there were pages that were quite intact inside.
‘……Did something like this happen?’
An item that could not be found in the game.
Raven’s eyes lit up as Einar handed the book to her and carefully opened it.
“It’s written in an ancient language.”
“Can you read it?”
“Yes. This is my specialty. Anyway, looking at it, it looks like a diary.”
Raven reads the contents of the book out loud as if to show off his knowledge.
It was quite interesting.
[The rescue team did not come today on the 192nd. Now, there are only three of us left in the expedition. Tarbiang suggested building a house, and I agreed. The devil’s meat was disgustingly tasteless today.]
[A decent house was completed on the 271st. The three of us drank the wine we had saved. How long has it been since you laughed and talked like this? Hell, if Zephyrus hadn’t been drunk and didn’t say anything strange, I’d be in a good mood right now.] [
What are you doing living when the world is destroyed?] [Even
if everything burns down, there is hope.]
[As proof, we’re still alive. .]
[467 days Tarbiang is pregnant. Whose child is it really? Neither I nor Zephyrus asked. Ah Tarvian. A woman who is smarter than anyone else but pitiful. I am desperate for alcohol today.]
[672 days. Is it 673 days? I don’t know, but something big happened. The Orb of Fire began to lose its power. Already, the outer walls are getting scorched by fire. The only thing that can be fixed is Tarvian, the wizard. But even if she sacrifices her life to extend the period, what does it mean?]
[On the 711th day, Zephyrus agreed after a long time.]
[Today we die.]
[If the world is destroyed by the witch. If someone finds this place someday, I hope they use the underground object to save the world.] A
diary that doesn’t even mention the name of the narrator.
There are only four pages that are still intact.
However, Raven, who was reciting the last words, was seized with shock.
“Witch…”
“Why are you so surprised?”
“I was wondering if it was written in an ancient language… The person who wrote this diary is from our dimension!”
“Huh?”
“So what?” Mischa’s eyes said,
Hana Raven was in no mood to kindly explain.
“What is it? Ah, because this is another dimension? So, are there records from that time? No, then how did these people get here?”
Raven muttered to himself as if organizing his thoughts.
However, the time was unexpectedly short.
“Basement! Let’s start with the basement! If this is true, there must be something down there.” “That’s a
good idea.”
Going back down to the first floor and clearing the collapsed furniture revealed the way to the basement. It was
quite dark, so I used the light sphere magic. When I went
downstairs
, I came across a small space of 3 pyeong.
It seems to have been used as a warehouse to store food or goods…….
There was a box that looked precious at first glance.
“I will open it.
” Do you think it is?”
Yes, taking on this kind of work in the past is finally shining.
‘It must have been natural, right?’
I opened the box with that thought in mind.
There was a marble inside.
Before Raven opened her mouth, she took her hand and said,
“I have been registered as a user of the Orb of Fire.”
This is a bound item.
