Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha - Chapter 113

# 113

113. The night before (1)

The climbing started the next day.

The quest on the 25th floor confirms that the main party’s power has returned. Amkena had no reason to hesitate. We went straight into the rift of time and space.

[Floor 26.]

[Mission Type – Escort]

[Objective – Protect designated person.]

Field is desert.

The content of the mission was as expected.

Under the heat of the desert, I was able to reunite with Priasis. Priasis was walking aimlessly in the desert with her entire body covered in cloth.

“Aren’t you dead?”

I said with a smile.

It was a day for me, but it must have been a lot of time for this guy. Priasis’ eyes turned to us.

“As you can see… I’m alive. Even though I prepared myself, it’s hard.”

Priasis said in a haggard voice.

The full bag has been cut in half. I tossed the package I had taken from the waiting room. Priasis hesitated and accepted.

“There’s heat repellant, water, and food. Use it wisely.”

“I owe you… to you.”

Priasis opened the lid of the anti-heat bottle with sweaty hands and drank it in.

It’s not something I made. Amkena was also prepared by a pharmacist on the second floor, as if he had studied the basic strategy of attacking the desert. There was no need to bother with manipulating information anymore.

“Looking at this woman again. What’s the mission this time?”

“It’s simple. Follow and protect Freesis. You, you know the destination, right? Wandering is not allowed.”

“I’ve seen it several times in my dreams. Just follow the signs.”

Priasis pointed to the endless sandy horizon.

Only a sandstorm was blowing on the high hill.

‘Mark? I can’t see it.’

It doesn’t matter anyway.

It was enough if you knew the direction.

“Let’s drink first.”

We drank the heat repellant.

[Tips/The special potion ‘Heat Repellant’ prevents exhaustion and heatstroke status ailments. However, the effect may decrease in case of extreme action.]

Cool energy flowed through the whole body.

The sun was shining, but it made me feel more comfortable. I threw the empty bottle into the corner and reached for the scabbard. A peculiar cry came from the hill next door.

“Carrrleuk!”

“He’s coming to meet you right away.”

[Lizardman Lv.24] X 15

A message informing me of the enemy came to my mind.

Nerissa went straight up the hill and said,

“Your arming is better than last time. You seem to be an elite soldier.”

“Perfect for post-meal exercise.”

“Everyone get ready.”

sereung.

I drew my sword

“Kiaaaa!”

The torn Lizardman’s upper body flew away with a sad sound.

18th. It took less than 3 minutes to put it all together. In addition to that, we encountered a group of guys, but we proceeded through the desert while smashing the sticks.

“Even the royal guards of the imperial castle were not like this.”

Freeasis, who was watching, shook his head quietly.

half a day like that. Let’s go over the three hills

[Clear the stage!]

[Level up ‘Belquist (★★★)’ and ‘Nerissa (★★★)’!]

[Reward – 50000G Essence of the Desert]

[MVP – ‘Han (★★★)’ )’]

The stage clear message appeared.

I put the sword into the scabbard. Night was coming to the white desert. Light enveloped the body. I said to Priasis who was looking at me.

“See you on the next floor.”

“Okay, Han. On the next floor.”

Priasis laughed lightly and waved at me.

The background gradually faded and we returned to the space-time rift.

“I don’t know what this mission means. It’s all about chasing after a girl, isn’t it?”

“A girl. Don’t talk, Belquist.”

Belquist grinned at Nerissa, who gave her a bruise.

“What a great girl you are. How can you become the princess of an empire?”

“That’s correct.”

“Of course it’s ridiculous… um? What?”

Belquist’s face became dumbfounded.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen this guy’s expression.

After laughing, I left the space-time gap.

The attack continued the next day.

Likewise, the background is a desert. The only difference is that it’s night instead of day. Therefore, this time I needed an anti-cold agent to prevent frostbite and chills. As if it were not a desert, even the temperature felt lightly below freezing.

Other points were similar.

Lizardmen appeared out of nowhere and fought with us.

As we went deeper into the desert, the number of them increased.

“Kirru! Those who destroy order, kill, kill!”

“Cara la la rock!”

[‘Lizardman’ has entered a berserk state!]

It’s not just hostility.

They pounced on us with unmistakable hatred.

Monsters are rampaging all over the continent. What happened in the desert town is just one piece of the whole. Priasis said while looking at the corpses of the Lizardmen scattered around.

“I don’t have much time. We have to hurry.”

Freesis opened her mouth.

Silver hair bathed in the moonlight shimmered white.

“If my dream is true, less than ten years are left until the end.”

“They say they don’t know what the key is. Why don’t you collect it?”

“It is a kind of proof. The key is an item that is only passed down in the founding myth of the Empire. If I can take it, they will lend me their power.”

“If they are.”

“The Asinis family.”

Priasis said with a determined expression.

“One of the four major families and the strongest military group in the Empire. I made a promise with them. To prove my worth. To that end, I have to make the impossible possible.”

“Is that impossible to collect keys?”

“Exactly.”

The answer came without hesitation.

I clicked my tongue and hurried my steps.

“But why do you help me? I have nothing to give you. I’m out of money. All I have now is this shabby body.”

“I have no intention of receiving anything.”

The silver-haired little shoulders trembled.

“Don’t get me wrong. The mission just happened like this.”

“Anyway… thank you so much.”

“Keep going.”

I glanced back.

Jenna and Iolka were giggling as they watched us.

“Is that too?”

“Oh, that’s what I think. It’s a picture. The princess of the empire…” “The

escort knight protecting her! Huhu, this is what I read in the book is real…” ”

What are you talking about so much fun? ? Join me too.”

I put my face between the two.

“Huh? Just a moment ago, in front of me… Crush!”

Iolka’s cheeks continued to stretch.

“I hate illusions the most. Know it.”

“Ah, no! You could say something like this! Why are people so stiff? But why do you only have me! Jenna…” Jenna

was whistling away from a distance.

“…”

Another 30 minutes.

[Clear stage!]

[‘Han(★★★)’, ‘Jenna(★★★)’, ‘Iolka(★★★)’ level up!] [

Reward – 50000G Desert Lizard Scales (B) X 2]

[ MVP – ‘Han(★★★)’]

The 27th floor also ended safely.

Light leaked from the body. It was a signal to return.

Priasis turned around.

“Han, on the next floor?”

“Maybe not. We’re not alone.”

My vision was covered with light.

returned to the waiting room. When I looked up, white light was crossing the sky.

‘There’s no way to send only one party.’

You can’t successfully attack a mission with only one party.

During the subjugation on the 20th floor, the entire raid was in danger of annihilation due to another party’s mistake. Amkena must have watched this closely. If you didn’t feel anything here, you were an idiot.

The next evening

[Party 3 mission! Gather on the first floor!]

Isel’s booming voice echoed throughout the waiting room.

The attacking team this time is 3 parties. The goal, of course, is to climb the top. I saw Kishasha and the others exiting the stairs through the door outside the training center. They will lead the Priasis for us.

‘Even if his personality is eccentric, he’ll do well.’

At least Kishasha knows what to do and what not to do.

It will be okay to stop worrying. We had our own business to do.

“Do it one more time, sir.”

Inside the battleground.

Belquist’s eyes were shining brightly.

“Don’t bother. Go, go.”

I closed the training ground and headed to the training ground.

After reaching level 10 of the lower weapon skill, Belquist was concentrating on training day and night. I felt that I was facing a huge wall.

‘The sparring with Ridigion was quite valuable.’

The effect seemed more than tangible.

Even if it was clumsy, I was able to teach Belquist the know-how. Although I have no intention of giving an old-fashioned lecture about which area is this and how I feel.

Still the same way to help.

to hit and smash. It’s just that my movements have changed.

Belquist grew stronger day by day.

‘The warrior job change is over.’

While I was in Niflheim. Workplace facilities have also been established.

The facility level was still low, so you couldn’t change jobs other than the 3 basic jobs, but it wasn’t a bad choice. Belquist is already a 3-star warrior. Nerissa was a 3 star rogue.

Early that morning, I was informed that the 28th floor raid had been completed.

next day.

Climbing the 29th floor wasn’t us either.

This time it was a party of 2. Two veterans and three newcomers participated. The three new recruits went out with nervous expressions and returned with dejected faces.

Anyway

, with this, the attack to the 29th floor was completed.

Next is the 30th floor, the boss stage. As easy as the 25th floor was, the mission was expected to be difficult. However, Amkena did not send us straight away.

All 15 people on the 3rd floor, including me, couldn’t reach the proper level.

A round-the-clock was waiting for the level up.

‘The 28th floor.’

Other floors cannot be re-challenged because they are tied to a linked quest.

Amkena sent us alternately to the 28th floor. It was a slaughter-type mission to subdue the Lizardmen tribe nestled behind the desert hills.

Freesis did not appear and we gained experience by sweeping away the Lizardmen. up to level 30. In that battle, I was able to raise my intermediate weapon skills to level 2.

In addition, Amkena prepared steadily for the attack.

The first priority was to foster a preliminary party on the second floor. Part 4 and Part 5. Since the 25th floor was a small mission, there is a high probability that a large mission will appear on the 30th floor. Amkena raised them while synthesizing the sacrifices on the first floor.

‘Come to think of it.’

According to Edith, there was an incident in which several members of the 1st floor colluded to steal supplies from the daily dungeon. The main items are meat and fruit. Instead of putting the loot into the portal, they took it by putting it in their pockets. Of course it took.

Half of them were immediately synthesized, and half were said to be confined to a remote place awaiting disposal. Suddenly, I remembered what happened when I left the 20th floor. The dregs that surrounded me and silently threatened me.

‘Are they them?’

It’s none of my business.

Anyway, even this waiting room had well over a hundred heroes. Now it was time to move on to the next system. in a slightly more advanced way.

‘Breaking the 30th floor is probably first.’

I put my back on the chair.

It was late evening. The lantern above the desk was shining yellow.

‘…’

A tingling feeling crossed his chest.

The feeling that always comes when you are about to attack the boss stage. It was a unique sharp sense that seemed to announce a crisis.

‘A week at most.’

My current level is 29.

Preparations for the attack will be over soon.

Amkena will not hesitate.

‘When I think about it, it’s like an asshole.’

I laughed lightly.

I chose Taoni. I refused to take the easy road and took the thorny road.

I don’t regret it, but for the time being, the hardships will be open.

The ring on his left hand glowed black.

I turned the ring to the left. Then

[Master.]

A familiar sound tapped my ears.

A soft voice like a gentle breeze. It was Yurnet’s voice.

[I thought you would contact me as soon as you left. I’m sorry.] The content of

“…”

was not smooth.
