The 31st Piece Turns the Tables - Chapter 31

Episode 31

The dice did not stop easily and flipped up and down several times.

This was clearly captured in Snowfall’s interface.

– So this is the area movement dice?

– It’s just like a weather forecast in a travel itinerary. Clear, cloudy, etc.

– It’s a base so you can move around and that’s it, but there’s no suitable base around Nobira…

– In short, at least one adventure cycle, even if something like dice or crap comes up, you have to endure it and go back. You mean to do it?

– ㅇㅇ But honestly, the probability of getting a low dice is extremely low. It doesn’t matter if you’re average, as long as you don’t get 1 and 2.

– Then it’s safe.

Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[The travel luck die rolls a 2.]

[A fairly unlucky fortune rolls.]

[The adventure you undertake near Novira has many variables.]

[The adventure you undertake near Novira This becomes a little more dangerous.]

[There is a chance that the adventure you chose near Novira will be forcibly replaced by another unexpected adventure.] [

Your adventure will be significantly jeopardized.]

[But despite all this misfortune, you can continue your adventure. If you break through, you will get a bigger opportunity.]

‘Nawa’ sponsored Madness by 300!

[Who is this bastard who said clichés? Because of you, I got a 2.]

– As long as it doesn’t get below 2 (I got a 2)

– Pohang Port ꉂ(ᵔᗜᵔ*) Hahaha Pohang Port Port Pohaha Port⚓️

– But that actually happened!

– Our world is very tightly woven. Clichés bring bad luck!

Snowfall’s brows were wrinkled.

The second base, which started with a new mind, was described in ominous phrases from the beginning.

‘For fear of something like this, the players prepared well and moved.’

Supply growth adventure, etc.

There were concerns that trials would come in many areas.

The reason players usually move with abilities one level higher than the minimum is to prepare for such misfortune.

‘Anyway, it won’t be a big problem. Even if a problem arises, it can be resolved without difficulty at this level.’

As long as Jamad and Karuna were there, there was an extremely low chance that Kangseol would have a problem that couldn’t be resolved.

There were no cities around Novira that could be used as a base.

Except for Nobira, there were only very small villages near the forest.

It was foolish to move to a town without proper infrastructure to avoid bad luck. And there was a possibility of encountering bad luck there anyway.

‘It’s better to think of it as an opportunity to get more rewards.’

– I think this person thinks it’s better because he can get more rewards?

– It’s written on the face!

– No guesses! Stepping on a banana while walking!

– Hair comes out of food!

– When I tried to fart, something leaked!

– That’s not easy even if the die rolls 1…

– Sorry, I’m not good with intestines…

But there was a reason why it wasn’t easy to think that way.

Even if I could endure everything else, the unexpected adventure where I was forced to choose an adventure was so dangerous that it was difficult to endure.

‘You just have to be careful of unexpected adventures.’

Hoping that no unexpected adventures will occur on this itinerary, snowfall has entered the center of Nobira.

“Whahaha! “I never thought I’d come back alive.”

“I said it wasn’t a joke, man. If he had really fallen back then, his body would have been broken into pieces and scattered across the forest by now. “Relic hunters, this is something you can’t do.”

“That’s the charm of ruins. Even those who are weaker than you feel like they are commuting to and from work, and even those who are stronger than you have their heads blown off when they make a mistake.”

Novira, the city of ruin hunters.

The only city-sized group located near a large forest filled with ruins.

‘It seems like the transferees have mixed well with the residents.’

My first impression of Nobira wasn’t that bad.

People who appeared to be transferees also blended into the atmosphere of the city without any awkwardness. It felt a little different from Kongori, where the transferees and residents were wary of each other.

‘Maybe it’s because of Nobira’s characteristics?’

The residents of places where they do rough work tend to have strong personalities, but they act like friends to the people they work with.

Nobira is a place where the economy is built on the lives of ruin hunters, so hunting for ruins is considered an important business.

The most important resource in this ruin hunt is manpower.

‘With the influx of large-scale transferees, even slaves have become more active.’

The famous ruin hunter leads countless people to the Borgo where Snowfall met.

Unlike the residents with various occupations, the influx of transferees, all of whom had combat occupations, must have been nothing short of a blessing to Nobira.

Snowfall first visited the Adventurer’s Association to understand the atmosphere of Nobira. He checked the posts left in the Novira community.

[Title: The ruin predator man is so kind.]

He said he looked like his dead son and took good care of him ㅡㅡ. It’s really annoying and ridiculous, so I’m taking care of it too.

– You two are getting married!

– Nobira, the city of manly men.

– His speaking style is the same as that of the man who taught me about work at a construction site in the past. Haha

– I almost died when I went out to the ruins this time, but he barely saved me. Lifelong loyalty planned ^^7

[Title: Who would have thought that one of the five major ruin hunters would explode] It’s

confirmed that we’ve been left behind ㄹㅇ Amazing! Every time I pass by this guy in town, I secretly put a little bit of it in his panties and try to stop him. It’s amazing. Who made the Borgo episode?

– Would a borgo carrying more than 30 people be blown up by Jeonjatari? Haha

– Ah! So, who among the others set it off? But is there any decrease in scale?

– Borgo has a bit of a reputation, but it was Tier 1 in terms of cruelty and force… Anyway, whether the person who attacked the Borgo guys was a transferor or a relic hunter, thumbs up!

– I’m leaving a line of kimbap (@))))))))) You will be blessed!

‘The Borgo is gone and something seems to be happening.’

Since Kangseol wasn’t really interested in the Relic Hunter episode, he mainly looked at other content.

[Subject: Someone with free time, please include me. Guys….]

I haven’t decided on this adventure yet.

The ruin hunter who I went on an adventure with last time said he didn’t want to go with me this time… I’m sad.

– I wonder how bad I was; I would have taken her if I could

– I don’t know, but I guess I got caught complaining that the place to sleep wasn’t that great.

– Oh my. You’re a brat!

– This is Nobi, the city of machos! Those who are sloppy cannot survive! At least go to Kongori!

– I heard something happened recently in Kongori? It’s ugly there too.

– Rumor has it that two established guilds have exploded.

– Fight between guilds?

– No, I don’t know the details.

Kangseol realized that most of the transferees in Novira were focused on ruin hunting adventures.

Meanwhile, there was a piece of writing that caught his eye.

(New)[‘Insane people’s post]

[Posting date: just now]

[Title: Are you guys sane?]

Is it sane to laugh and talk while people’s lives come and go? I don’t understand;

– Only here, anonymously, if I go on an adventure like this, I end up crying and making a fuss;

– So you have to be lazy all the time? Rather, it seems like it would lead to mental illness;

– Are deployed soldiers not allowed to smile?

– If there is one best way to overcome fear, it is laughter.

– To put it bluntly, isn’t it time to get used to it at this point? We actually don’t understand you^^

I used to find it strange how active the snowball community was.

However, it was not that I couldn’t understand it, as people have different ways to adapt to new events.

‘Well, I guess everyone has realized it now.’

That you can’t go back to the original world.

Kangseol looked through the articles he was interested in, briefly recalled the current danger areas, and then left the association.

Perhaps because we arrived in Novira quite early, the sun was still shining.

Snowfall traveled around the city to resolve the main reason for coming here: Chao’s disappearance.

She likes to wear black robes, has big eyes, a pretty face, and hair as black as charcoal. I interrogated Nobira with Chao’s impressions that I had received.

“Chao? What an unusual name. “I’ve never heard of such a person.”

“Chao? Are you from another country? A woman? “What kind of names do they have?”

“Um… I don’t know. “I’ve never seen a woman like that.”

The process of selling the product was not easy. However, Kang Seol did not give up and went to various places to collect rumors about Chao.

Then I heard hopeful news.

“ah! “Are you talking about that woman?…”

Kang Seol’s face lit up when he found a clue after a long time.

“Do you know that woman?”

“yes. Was it about a month or so ago? “I remember him acting like it was his first time here and telling me a lot of things.”

“If you don’t mind, could I hear the details?”

“Well… I don’t think I can remember.”

A choice came to mind.

[I think I found traces of Chao in a stranger. But this person doesn’t seem to have any intention of opening his mouth easily. How would you answer?]

1. Try to remember well.

2. Are you kidding me?

3. Does anyone else know her besides you?

4. [Required: Threat 1] If you don’t say it right, I might bury your pores in ruins.

5. [Required: Negotiation 1] Let’s exchange like information.

6. [Required: 1 gold coin] I’m sure you remember.

Ting-!

The gold coin bounced from Snowfall’s hand and landed in the woman’s hand.

The woman took the gold coin as if she had been waiting and then started speaking rapidly.

“So the first thing she asked was about renting a lab…” * *

*

Based on the information she was lucky enough to obtain, Kangseol found an abandoned mansion on the outskirts of Nobira.

– It was a mansion where a family member died, so no one bought it, so it was often rented out to outsiders. I introduced him, but I don’t know if he signed a contract.

Are what the woman said true?

Snowfall hovered around the mansion in the darkness of the night.

‘There are no signs of maintenance…’ It’s an

ominous place full of cobwebs, broken windows, and a place where if you go through the locked door, you won’t see sunlight the next day.

[I’m not really scared of things like this haha. I’ll sleep with my mom tonight.]

– Because my mom will be lonely!

– I can’t see anything scary, but is there something scary here?

– Judging by the looks of it… But are you really planning on trespassing here illegally?

– Fact) It is no longer a plan, but an implementation step.

Since Snowfall was at a loss, she made sure that no one was around and attempted to break into the mansion.

Crash.

Clang… Clang…

The door is locked.

Once again, a choice.

[There are probably several ways to enter the mansion. How would you break in?]

1. Break down the door.

2. Check the cellar.

3. Break the window.

4. Use the broken window to enter.

5. [Required: Psychic] Ask the ghost of the mansion how to enter.

Although there were some uncomfortable choices, Kang Seol chose option 4 because there was less risk of being caught.

Whirling-!

A shadow hand lifted the broken glass from the window frame instead of Snow Seol’s fragile hand. Snowfall climbed through the window and entered the mansion with Karuna’s help.

The mansion was filled with darkness without a single light.

‘There are traces of living…’

Relatively recently, I mean, traces from a few weeks ago were visible.

Things like footprints on the carpet or the state of the lamp.

Kang Seol decided that there was no one inside and took out a lantern from his belongings.

Wow…

only then did I see the inside. When I looked inside with a lantern, I realized that the mansion was quite large and that it would be difficult to search it alone.

‘Then there is a way.’

Whirling-!

Jamad and Karuna were summoned at the same time by Snowfall’s gesture.

“What.”

“Someone named Chao may have a lab here. “Please find it together.”

“Hmph, what else can I say?”

Thump… thump…

Jamard muttered loudly, like a thief, and disappeared somewhere else, making loud footsteps.

– I’m not going to search specifically for you!

– No matter how you look at Jamard, he’s a tsundere…

– Even though he’s a tsundere, he’s got too many muscles…

– That’s gap moe…

– Are you very dissatisfied with society?

Unlike Jamad, Karuna nodded to Kang Seol and continued the search together.

Meanwhile, Kang Seol suddenly became curious about whether Karuna was naturally this quiet.

“Karuna.”

“yes.”

“Are you always that quiet?”

“Originally, when are you talking about?”

“Before I became a shadow, right?”

“When I was left as an apostle in the ruins, I didn’t speak because I had no one to talk to.”

There is no one to talk to, so you don’t talk.

Kang Seol remembered that he was a fairy and brought up another topic.

“Then what about when you were a fairy?”

“…I don’t remember.”

“You don’t remember? why? “Because I became a shadow?”

“That’s not true. It’s just that my memories before I became an apostle are as hazy as a fog.”

“I have no memory…”

Not much was known about Karuna.

There was no one other than Snow Seol who had summoned him.

‘From now on, we can get to know each and every thing.’

Detailed information about the summoned beast was also important to the summoner.

Kangseol planned to find out everything about Karuna and Jamad step by step.

Clap!

Karuna said to Snowfall.

“master.”

“hmm?”

“I think I found it.”

Snowfall entered the door opened by Karuna.

And I couldn’t hide my surprise when I saw the scene unfolding inside.
