Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian - Chapter 267
Episode 267 Parune Island (1)
People are fighting with people.
That word sparked my spirit.
Maybe I was a little complacent without even realizing it.
pounding-!
There are no explorers in Noark.
No, there are only a few explorers in the first place.
However, it was a world in a labyrinth where anything could happen.
So, let’s start by checking the information.
“How many are there in total?”
“At least eight.”
When I raised my voice to ask, Erwen answered immediately without a moment’s pause.
“That means at least two teams are fighting.”
“For now, the situation.”
“What else do I need to know about?”
“……no.”
Well, I don’t think the tone is like that.
It’s not good to just overlook this.
Is it like that in the movies too?
“What else do I need to know about?”
I asked one more time, and Erwen answered cautiously.
“……Somehow I don’t have a good feeling.”
yes that’s right “
I
’m sorry .
“I have nothing to be sorry for.”
Actually, I did too.
When I heard that the explorers were PKing, an ominous feeling began to creep up.
That was the car I was contemplating on my future decision.
“Yandel, what are you going to do now?”
“Are you going to save me again…?”
I tilted my head.
“Again?”
“It wasn’t like that the other day when there was a fire in the ecliptic on the 1st floor. You like to save people…”
What is he saying?
Things were completely different then and now.
In the ecliptic, he had enough energy to do so, and he even promised to help if he had enough energy.
And on the first floor…
“I think I know what you’re mistaken for, but I’ll tell you clearly at this opportunity.”
As a result, I was treated as an unworthy hero by leading thousands of explorers to open the way.
To be honest, it’s true that something got hot.
but.
“At that time, it was you who I was really trying to save.”
Still, priorities have not changed.
Because I’m a selfish person who doesn’t deserve to be called a hero.
It is daunting just to protect me and my people.
“That means…”
“I don’t have a good feeling about it, but there’s no need to get caught up in it. Let’s leave the island as it is.”
“But is that okay? I don’t even know what’s going on over there, but maybe I need help.”
Mr. Bear opened his mouth with an uncomfortable expression.
I don’t think he was originally a character like this.
Apparently, he is still intoxicated with the heroic mulberry taste he felt on the first floor.
“They are also explorers.
I said it clearly with the authority of a leader, and Mr. Bear agreed without saying anything.
But belatedly, did you worry about one thing?
“Raven, are you alright? I think you had a close relationship with the guy I met earlier.”
“Mr. Patsran? Well, if he’s fighting over there, there’s a good chance he’ll get caught up in it, but…”
Raven blurted out at Mr. Bear’s concern.
Then, looking straight into our eyes, we drew a firm line.
“It doesn’t matter.”
“Do you mind?”
“We’re not even that close anyway. What if something happens while we go to help?”
Extremely explorer-like selfish answer.
However, we all swallowed the words that followed.
“…My team is more important to me.”
You say things like that without turning a blind eye.
He’s grown a year older, and he’s become bolder.
It looks like it’s still a kid.
“Then it’s decided.”
As soon as the decision was made, we turned around and ran towards the beach.
Estimated time of arrival is approximately 1 hour.
It’s not a very big island, so if you get out quickly, you won’t have any problems.
‘It’s a pity that I left behind the Hidden Peace, but…’
That’s right, you can leave the island first and look at the situation later and try again.
‘Yes, when I’m anxious, it’s best to stand out first.’
I threw away even the last regret.
And how much time has passed
“It’s the sea!”
Soon after arriving at the shore, we hurriedly took out the boat and set it afloat on the waves. Then, one after another, they got on and rowed away from the island.
It was the moment when I was just a little bit relieved.
“Bjorn!”
Einar, a valiant barbarian female warrior, shouted, showing her fearful emotions.
“Oh, what happened! The bar sea…! The sea is rising!!”
The calm sea changed in an instant and began to shake the boat violently.
“The offerings of Farune Island have been destroyed.”
“The fury of the sea covers the island.”
Nimiral.
***
The hidden peace of Parune Island is simple.
When you destroy the ‘tribute’ hidden in the center of the island, you can proceed with the event called Rage of the Sea.
It is a kind of defense event.
A sea monster is coming towards the island from the coast, and we must fend off it inland.
And what I was aiming for was the essence of the event boss.
Level 4 Monster Elfrot.
If Misha or Erwen eat it, it is an essence that can be used until the second half.
Whether or not it drops is a separate issue.
Anyway, that’s not something to think about right now.
‘At least eight people over there. And here’s 6 people…….’
In fact, the event with the highest level of difficulty has been opened.
Hidden Peace anyway, it means getting out of this island is the top priority.
“What is this?”
“I’ve never heard of a wave suddenly hitting like this…”
“No! Go ahead and row!”
As if no one could get away from this island, we hurriedly started rowing for a moment even when we were taken aback by the rough waves.
Isn’t that the situation that was almost out of the way?
‘If I go a little further, I can escape at all.’
In fact, even after an event occurred in the game, escaping the island was not systematically blocked.
It’s because it sank not long after being a fairly good ship.
“One two. One two!!”
Shouting slogans, they lead the boat over the waves.
But…
‘I should have spent a little more money to buy a better boat.’
I don’t feel like going anywhere.
The feeling of being pushed toward the island even at the moment when you are rowing with all your might beyond walking in place.
It didn’t just feel like it, it really was.
“Bjorn! The island is getting closer?”
A boat that pushes back even if it tries to go through the waves.
The taste is bitter for some reason.
I think I would have been able to break through somehow if I had just installed a magical engineering propulsion device on the ship.
“Bjorn! The boat is full of water…!!”
“What should I do? Didn’t it break somewhere?”
As soon as the boat started to fill up with water, panic spread among the party.
Time to make a quick decision.
“I give up on getting off the island.”
After a moment of thought, I quickly gave the order.
“Everyone turn your backs and sit down! Ride the waves and head towards the island as much as you can!”
This is the advantage of a small boat with a capacity of six people.
It’s not that there is no distinction between front and back on the ship, but it doesn’t mean much. Even more so if the waves are pushing the boat roughly like this.
“Put all the heavy equipment in the subspace!”
Soon, in addition to reducing the weight of the ship, the equipment was also removed in preparation for capsizing.
Okay then, the basic preparations that can be done now are over.
“right!!”
Oars were used only to keep the boat from losing balance and capsizing, rather than to move the boat.
About three minutes passed like that, and it was around the time when I started to feel that the distant island was clearly closer.
“Hey over there…!”
The boat bouncing forward without even trying was swept away by the big waves.
And…
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
completely turned over
“Pu-huh!”
A body submerged in water in an instant.
First of all, I somehow managed to hold on to the overturned boat.
“Is everyone okay!!”
“Ah, for now!”
“I’m fine too!”
When I shouted, survival reports came here and there.
Except for one person.
“What about Raven?”
What happened?
Could it be that he was swept away?
“Pu-Hup here! Here it is!”
I was surprised after
Holding on to the overturned boat, we floated and exchanged opinions quickly.
“Then what now?”
“Isn’t it okay to just stay like this?”
“Uh, I think it’s going well for now…”
It wasn’t a bad way.
Like a ship made of special wood with strong buoyancy, it never sank even when capsized.
‘Rather, it seems to be more stable than when I was on the boat…….’
Since the waves are rushing to the island, the boat will head towards the shore without us having to steer it.
“Hold tight, everyone!”
Soon, we held on to the handle of the boat so that we wouldn’t fall off in the waves, and we endured and endured.
It was when about a minute passed like that.
‘Oh, I didn’t think of this……”
We are in front of a new crisis.
“There’s a rock! A rock…!”
As we got closer to the shore, the towering reef began to approach the ship. It was
impossible to change
the route now. And
at that moment,
and
at that moment.
Quaan-!
The ship
hit the reef
.
I felt it.
And for some reason…
Kakak Kakak Kakakak.
There was a sound of something being gnawed.
It was none other than my feet.
” …?”
After confirming it, I froze.
A crayfish monster the size of a large dog was struggling to chew and eat my foot somehow.
”
It’s
fucking
. ”
I used it to push away the ster rep. Then, after standing up in a hurry, I hit the head of the crawfish monster with the plank I was holding in my hand. 「You killed the ster rep. EXP +1」 Like a 9th grade
monster,
the light shines in just one shot. A crawfish monster that disappears after becoming a crayfish monster.
‘But what is this plank…’
It was only then that I noticed, but from the moment I woke up, I was holding this plank tightly in my hand.
Where did this come from? There is nothing
to worry about deeply. A memory that I had forgotten for a while came to mind.
‘Ah, the boat was wrecked…’
The boat hit the reef and broke into pieces.
Then I grabbed the biggest plank and hugged it tightly. If this is the case, it is judged that even the body of a barbarian will not sink in the water.
‘I wonder if it’s thanks to me……’
I quickly finished figuring out and looked around. No one was seen on the empty sandy beach.
‘I wonder if the other kids will be okay…….’
For now, Raven will be okay.
I can’t swim, but at the end I saw him floating in the air using his floating magic. Mishana Erwen doesn’t know how to swim, so I’m a little less worried.
The problem is Einar and Mr. Bear who can’t swim.
‘Hoo, please, I hope they washed up on the shore safely.’
Even if Amman tries to calm himself down, he keeps worrying.
However, apart from that mindset, my hands moved without rest and I took out the equipment I put in the subspace and put it on.
A swarm of monsters will soon come to the island.
Looking at the level of sterrep walking around, fortunately it seems that it has not been long since the event started, but…….
We need to be prepared.
‘I heard that explorers were fighting, but what was the situation that led to this event?’
There are a few things I don’t understand at all, but the kind of things that can’t be solved right now.
Ha, if I had known it would be like this, I would have just gone to help.
If you did, you’d know what was going on—
turbulent.
I stopped walking as I was about to leave the shore and enter the forest.
It’s because I heard someone from beyond the bush.
Dot dot dot dot.
The sound of someone running.
‘It’s not a monster.’
The monsters inside Parune Island are all flying insects that can glide.
It means that the sound of the monster running is not.
It was also highly likely that they were not even scattered colleagues.
The place we decided to meet was inside the forest.
There is no reason to run in the opposite direction.
‘Then he must be one of the explorers fighting earlier?’
I slowly raised my mace and waited for the owner of the sight to appear.
The reason for waiting was simple.
Wasn’t there only one person who heard the footsteps?
Even if a battle breaks out, if it’s one-on-one, at least I’m confident that I can get out of my body.
Therefore, contacting and obtaining information is the first priority.
‘now.’
I measured the distance through the sound of running, but as soon as the timing came, I stretched out my hand abruptly.
“Hee-eok, hee-eok. Kyaa!”
In an instant, the subdued prey floated in the air and struggled.
“Stay still. I won’t hurt you.”
The original plan was to wield the mace and subdue it for sure, but it was decided to put it on hold.
It was because they were familiar with each other.
Well, the other side doesn’t seem to remember.
“I’ll let you go, so be quiet.”
“Who are you all…”
“Didn’t I tell you to be quiet.”
As soon as he pressed with a ferocious voice, the priestess in a pure white robe trembled.
After that, I think I became a bad person.
“I am Baron Bjorn Yandel.”
“ah……!”
Once the name was revealed, the complexion of the goddess suddenly brightened.
It was a look that left no doubt about his identity.
Apparently, Patsran heard my story.
“So calm down, Ersina. I’m not your enemy.”
“Uh, how can I get my name…”
How do you know.
I know because I’ve met you once before.
Again, it was an unforgettable memory.
[Priest Ersina. Could you treat Lee Ja?]
[I refuse.]
When this woman refused my treatment, it really seemed like the world was collapsing.
it sucks What’s important isn’t this.
“We’ll talk about that later. Hurry up and explain. What the hell happened in the forest?”
Understanding the situation is a priority.
