Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha - Chapter 24
# 24
24. Day of the week Dungeon (3)
At the moment, the deer jumped in with explosive speed.
I narrowly twisted my back to avoid it. The deer’s antlers became lodged in the tree, and the whole tree was ripped out. The tree leaned over with a loud noise.
‘It would be useless even if I blocked this.’
The deer shook its head, brushed off the broken wood, and charged again.
It’s like a 1.5-ton truck accelerating at full speed. I slashed the guy’s leg while dodging the floor.
But the wound is shallow. The hide and the muscles underneath were thick.
I got up.
The deer prepared a third charge.
Let’s do this.
You can’t stop it. can’t spill You may try, but if you fail, your body will be torn to pieces. then.
I stood leaning against a beautiful tree.
The deer galloped, sprinkling dust. Every step he took made a pit in the soil. Such strong leaping power.
Before the curved horns were about to tear my body apart, I pulled my body aside.
puck!
The forest queen’s horns are driven into the trees. Even I couldn’t be sure that I could stab a sword and penetrate a tree of this thickness, but I did it without incident.
As the deer shook its neck from side to side, shrapnel flew. This time, the tree was also going to fall. I ran without missing.
The immobile deer kicked its hind legs. I blocked it with my shield, but I felt a heavy blow as if I was hitting it with a sledgehammer.
‘It counts dirty.’
I have no feeling in my left arm.
I fixed the iron sword in my right hand and charged at the deer’s tail. One more back kick. I twisted my upper body to avoid it. I almost broke my collarbone.
I stuck a knife into the boy’s ass. I felt resistance as if I was going through dozens of layers of thick fabric. The blade does not fit properly. But I forcibly twisted it and stabbed it.
The deer snorted violently, smashed the right side of the big tree, turned around and brandished its antlers.
I have no intention of dealing with that horn. He bent his whole body as if he were lying on his stomach.
Whoo!
The sound of the heavy wind brushed my ears.
I jumped up and grabbed the shield in my left hand with my right hand. The iron sword remained stuck in the deer’s buttock.
The deer, which turned its antlers once, rotated its body as if turning again.
I burrowed inward, slapped the spinning deer on the cheek with my shield, and kicked the hilt of the sword in its ass.
“Kee!”
shrill cry.
Ok the sword is not broken. I immediately threw away my shield and grabbed the hilt of my sword. The blade was wedged tightly between the hide and muscle, but I managed to pull it out somehow.
Put the blade back in the place where you pulled it out.
deeper this time.
Whoo!
backed away greatly. The deer’s antlers tore the hem of his clothes.
I ran again and kicked the sword hilt. Bright red blood splattered. The wound opened. A bloody sword fell through the open wound. I grabbed it and ran away.
The deer was running amok, mad with pain.
It ran in all directions and swung its horn vigorously. All branches and rocks caught in the horns were smashed.
I watched the scene from a few steps away.
And when the guy showed a gap.
He ran and stabbed his sword in the side of his head. No monster will ever live because the brain is pierced through the skull. The forest queen’s eyes lost their luster and then drooped.
“phew.”
I wiped the sweat from my forehead. He rotated his left arm once. It’s stiff, but it moves somehow. The joint doesn’t seem to come out.
After shaking off the blood on the sword and retrieving the shield, he looked down at the queen’s corpse.
Looking at it like this, I can believe that it is not a deer, but a horse or a bull. One leg was as big as my back pain.
Now what?
First you need to find the attribute stone.
‘By the way, where are you?’
I expected the way the corpse would disappear and the item would remain on it, but my expectations were wrong. As I was contemplating whether I should call Jenna, the thing the deer was holding in its mouth fell off.
It was a smooth green bead.
[Lower wind attribute stone]
[Grade – D-]
[An attribute stone that contains the energy of the forest. It is used to make various items and promote some heroes.]
Bingo.
I found the attribute stone.
Next, let’s find a useful part that this guy has.
‘Queen’s antler and blood.’
Both are materials for making advanced items.
But there is no tool to bring. I put a blade on the horn and pushed it in, but it didn’t make a dent. It seemed harder than steel. I don’t think you can bring a saw to this one.
‘I’ll have to take the blood out.’
After a few cuts with the blade, he was able to sever the carotid artery in his neck.
The back of the shield was placed under the neck. I have no choice but to take it. The blood that flowed out began to fill the shield.
“…”
I crouch down and watch the blood flowing from my neck.
It’s tantalizing to watch it quietly.
I got up and grabbed my sword. The target is deer antlers.
I was originally going to throw it away, but I changed my mind. I don’t know when I’ll be able to catch this guy again.
Relax your body and focus your mind. He gripped the sword hilt with both hands. regular tax.
He lowered his sword violently.
kang!
‘crazy.’
Sparks flew from the contact surface of the sword and horn.
It was embarrassing beyond absurd. It feels like cutting a knife through some kind of steel. It wasn’t just breaking trees like cans of millet.
In the end, there is only one way left.
After a while, I was walking towards the portal with my loot.
Even if you don’t put the ingredients in the dimension gate, if you just have them in your hand, will you be able to bring them when you return? Then you don’t have to go through such hardships. But if not, it’s a pain in the ass. The forest queen is not a monster that appears at any time. There were many cases where they did not appear even after visiting the dungeons of the forest all day long.
For that reason, I hand-carry the rare materials to the portal so as not to miss them.
He slung his sword around his waist and held the ring of the shield filled with blood in his left hand. In his right hand he held the head of a deer.
Can not help it. I can’t cut off the horns, so I’ll have to cut off the head. The neck bones were also difficult to cut, but they were not as hard as the horns.
Go down the valley and turn right.
Soon the sound of breaking through the grass was heard. not of animals A faint scent of blood mingled in the wind.
“Hey hey! It’s a monster!”
The man who was carrying the hind legs of a butchered deer looked at me and sat down.
“A monster?”
“Oh, no…”
The man stumbled and stood up.
“Are you Mr. Han?”
“Can’t you see it?”
I proceeded, dragging the deer’s severed head. It’s definitely not a stupid thing to say. His clothes are torn here and there from fighting the queen, and his body is covered in deer blood.
Soon, Jenna came out from inside the forest. Even Jenna’s sleeves were stained with blood.
“Huh, brother?”
“I’m dying, so help me.”
I threw the deer’s head in front of Zena.
rolling around. The dead deer’s eyes lit up at Jenna.
“What’s so big about a deer?!”
“I went hunting the big one.”
“Ah, then call me! I should have followed you a long time ago.”
“You didn’t come.”
Jenna held the deer’s head with both hands.
It was a sight that did not interfere with blood staining the dress.
‘This guy is also true.’
If you’re weird, you’re a weird girl.
That’s why I’m taking it.
“How many did you catch?”
“Two deer. One wild boar. That should keep everyone in the waiting room full for a while.”
“Everyone in the waiting room?”
“Sure. It’s like eating by ourselves. But why the head? The head doesn’t taste good.”
“I brought it because of the horns. They couldn’t be cut.”
“Come to think of it, this kid is a hind, but he has horns.”
“Can you tell the gender just by looking at the head?”
“Of course. How long have I been in the forest?”
arrived at the dimensional gate.
I splattered the blood from the shield first.
[‘Han( )’ has collected ‘Queen’s Blood’.]
[Tips/Heroes often collect rare materials in daily dungeons.]
‘That’s it.’
If it wasn’t for this, I would have thrown away the precious material. Next, he told Jenna to throw her head through a portal.
[‘Jena( )’ has collected ‘Queen’s Horn’.]
This is also the case.
The head, which was not recognized as an item, disappeared and only the horns seemed to have been moved.
In front of the dimension door, three party members were diligently moving the piled up materials.
[‘Louis( )’ gathered ‘deer hide’]
[‘Joffrey( )’ gathered ‘boar meat’]
[‘Owen( )’ collected ‘twig’…]
Finally, I tossed the wind attribute stone without anyone noticing. A collection completion message appears.
[Follow me!]
[Skill Awakening!]
[‘Jenna( )’ has acquired the ‘Forest Hunter’ skill!]
‘Is she awakening again?’
Forest Hunter is a passive skill that is compensated for hunting animals and slightly increases combat power in the forest field. It was expected given that he lived in the forest and had a hunter father.
Before I knew it, the materials piled up in front of the dimensional door exposed the floor.
[03:21]
“Shall I catch one more?”
“Leave me alone. I’ll be right back.”
“By the way, how on earth do you know that? Do you even use magic?”
“You’ll find out soon.”
When a mage joins and a magic lab is built, the research tab opens.
Among the list of studies, there is an item called ‘reactivity research’. It was literally a study to increase the hero’s command response to the master. The higher this is, the more clearly the hero understands the command and determines the master’s request.
If I hadn’t been there, people who came here would have wandered for a while without knowing anything and then went back. I know this because I experienced it when I was a master.
They sent me to farm, and they came empty-handed.
If my predictions are correct, people here will soon be able to see the system once the research is done. Not yet.
I lay cross-legged in the shade of a suitable tree.
A cool breeze blew in. As I lay down, the three men looked at me and began to rest.
Soon the light enveloped the entire body.
[Mission complete!]
[The hero returns to the waiting room.]
[List of obtained items]
[Twig X 54]
[Deer….]
Returned to the gap of time and space.
It was late at night when I came out to the square. The three men hesitantly greeted me and disappeared into the dorm. looks like going to bed
[Tips/Want to get some more ingredients? Gather the heroes you play and send them to the dungeon of the week!]
[Form a party.]
[Drag and drop heroes!]
[Exclude ‘Han( )’ from ‘Party 4’]
[Choose ‘Jenna( )’ ….]
This time, Amkena removed all the existing members from the 4 parties and started forming a party with new members. With Aaron at the head, Dika and the remaining three were mixed.
This is a natural measure since a hero who has gone to the dungeon once cannot go to the dungeon until the next day. Of course, if you learn a special skill, you can go twice or three times. They were called ‘gathering agents’ and were in charge of farming.
Jenna pursed her lips.
“I want to hunt a little more. I don’t know when I’ll be able to go again.”
[‘Jenna( )’ wants to go to the Forest Days of the Week dungeon.]
[But I can’t. That’s too bad.]
“Anyway, I have to tell Chloe the good news. Finally, I can eat meat dishes!”
“Wake up and tell me, wake up.”
It’s time for Chloe to sleep.
As a cook, she
had an earlier night and morning than others. I yawned profusely and went back to the inn
. After collecting them, the remaining attribute stones were fire and water.
