Chapter 90 – Labyrinth (2)
*
The ground thumps and reverberates loudly.
Seriously, what kind of madman put a boss at the entrance of a dungeon?
When I first checked the location of the Minotaur on a map, I was literally cursing.
“Everyone, come here quickly!”
Mmmm-
Above all, the Minotaur is not one.
It appears according to the number of people. There are two Minotaurs in the dungeon right now.
“Kerry! What is this sound?”
“I don’t know the details either.
It just felt unusual. It may be a difficult enemy to deal with in its current state.”
It’s just speculation, but the Minotaur isn’t meant to be fought and won.
And you can ignore the Minotaur. There is only one way to attack the labyrinth anyway.
The only way to clear the labyrinth is to climb on top of the towering altar in the middle.
It was the escape route from the labyrinth and the place where the doll’s nest was located.
Thump- thump- thump-
As soon as they look back, a monster with a bull’s head follows them.
Did the red eyes mean that he had mad cow disease?
“That guy is the boss of the dungeon.”
“Shall we fight? West.”
“No. It’s impossible at this point. Rather, please follow me.”
I had already planned all the plans to shake off the Minotaur from the beginning.
As long as the party believes in them and follows them, everything will work out.
Kerry said as she ran away with the group.
“Looks like there’s an arrow trap right in front of you. Keep an eye on it as it will pop out from the wall.”
“Yes? An arrow trap. How did the West…”
“Now is not the time to ask that. Natasha. Let’s do what Kerry says.”
As Kerry said, the party focused their consciousness on the wall.
“I’ll go first.”
Lina runs ahead.
Just because they have the same stats doesn’t mean they have the same experience and skills.
As soon as Lina threw herself in front of her, a hole in the wall suddenly opened.
It’s the arrow trap Kerry talked about.
Arrows were fired from both walls.
One foot from the left wall towards the body. One foot from the right wall toward the leg.
Lina moved her body her to avoid the arrow without seeing it.
I don’t know what to avoid. Lina just let her arrows flow like water.
I checked with my own eyes what the arrow trap was like.
‘But fuck. How can I follow that?’
I am not a master like Rina.
Lina shouted as if she saw Kerry panicking in front of an arrow trap.
“The trick is the sound, Mr. Kerry. When an arrow is fired, you hear a clatter first.
If you pay attention to the sound, you will be able to avoid it.”
I can’t do it even if you kindly tell me the tips! What I couldn’t do was what I couldn’t do. Not everyone is a master like Lina.
“Kerry. It’s okay. Come next to me. Come with me.”
Victoria came to her side of her.
When she saw her oversized shield her, she felt a little relieved.
“Please take care of the West!”
“Don’t worry. Go first.”
Natasha runs down a path lined with arrow traps.
Like Lina, Natasha evaded all arrows with agile movements.
No. I don’t think that’s something that can be easily avoided.
It was hard to believe that Lina and Natasha had the same 10 points in all stats.
Natasha took a few spins on her back her tumbling to get to where Lina was.
Only Victoria and Kerry were left.
“Please, Victoria.”
“Nothing to worry about.”
It was dignified. Truly the party’s tank!
Victoria and Kerry walk through an arrow trap together. There was nothing flashy like Lina or Natasha.
But Victoria was excellent at blocking the arrows with her shield.
Every time an arrow is fired, it tingles and sparks fly on the shield. Ugh. Be scared
Victoria slashed her shield with every arrow that fired from either side. It’s good.
“It’s over. It’s a trivial trap than I thought.”
Is this boring? To Kerry, the warrior party only looked like a monster.
“Now I’ll run again. The Minotaur is getting closer.”
“Yes. Lina-sama.”
The chasing Minotaur screamed.
The group ran ahead.
Kerry glanced back. It was because he was curious about how the Minotaur would pass through the trap.
As soon as the minotaur reaches the arrow trap, arrows rain down.
Ummmm!
“…”
The Minotaur just ran while the arrow hit his bare body.
Blood flowed from the area hit by the arrow, as if there was no damage.
I’ll show you roughly how to attack.
If you use the traps prepared in the labyrinth, it seems that you can attack the Minotaur as well.
You don’t have to jump at that big guy with 10 all stats.
Kerry exclaimed as she recalled her memory of her.
“I see traps ahead!”
“Seobang! How the hell do you know that?”
“I’ll tell you later. Natasha. For now, follow me first!”
“What trap is ahead? Kerry.”
“Probably like a trap falling down a hole. I move by jumping over the statues on either side so as not to step on the floor.”
The party followed Kerry’s words.
Stepping on a small statue of a Minotaur and passing a hole trap.
Originally, falling into that trap would have caused a number of headaches, but thanks to Kerry, none of that happened.
Mmmm!
It was when Kerry passed the trap.
The Minotaur also comes running. Why is that cow so fast? Isn’t this a bell bun?
But no worries now
The Minotaur made an ignorant charge. As soon as he steps on the floor, the floor opens.
He fell to the ground as the Minotaur screamed.
Mmmm!
“Have you done it?”
“No. Victoria. That line is dangerous…”
“Did you get it done or what’s the matter?”
“…”
It was then. The Minotaur’s hand suddenly rises to the ground.
“Look! It’s because of Victoria.”
“No. So. Why is this because of me?”
Even if I told her, Victoria wouldn’t understand.
Does not matter. After all, the condition for clearing the dungeon was not to defeat that Minotaur, but to arrive at the center of the labyrinth.
“First of all, run away quickly before the Minotaur comes up.”
“Kerry. Why don’t we just get him out of here? He can’t move right now.”
“No. Probably the dungeons aren’t made that easy.”
I couldn’t tell the party, but even if you defeat that Minotaur, it will resurrect after a certain period of time.
It couldn’t have been a very stupid design.
“Yes. All right. I’ll follow you for now. Kerry. Where should we go next?”
“I don’t know too much about that, but… “
In fact, I know very well. However, if you pretend to know too well, it will be difficult to excuse yourself later.
“Let’s go this way. For some reason, I think something good will happen if we go this way.”
“…Okay.”
The group ran the way Kerry said.
It was fortunate that the group followed Kerry well. The labyrinth was not a very pleasant place.
It was full of a musty smell like an old cellar.
But even in the labyrinth, there was hope.
Even now, if you raise your head and look toward the sky, you can see a high altar with bright light coming down.
There’s my doll’s tongue!
The party walked around the labyrinth following Kerry’s words.
Kerry made up excuses to take breaks in between, while she checked her route by looking at a map.
If she remembered the traps of the labyrinth, it was not difficult for her to find the way by looking at the map.
Pass a few more traps.
At the end, we finally arrived at the first resting place.
“This is… Quite beautiful, Kerry.”
“Yes. I see.”
“Seobang. What is this fountain?”
A beautiful fountain appeared in front of the group.
Clear water flowed incessantly from the fountain.
“Is this a trap too? Kerry-sama.”
“Well… I don’t know everything either.”
It’s a lie. I know everything. This fountain is a kind of resting place. It is a place to rest and quench your thirst.
The Minotaur doesn’t even come here.
“I’m thirsty. Would you like a glass of water?”
Kerry approached the fountain and scooped her water into her hand.
“!”
“Sir, Mr. Seo. No way! Spit it out right away. It might have been poisoned…”
It wasn’t until Natasha finished talking.
Kerry drank the cold water. Because there is no poison, of course. It’s an action
“I already drank, Natasha, but I was so thirsty that I couldn’t stand it.”
The group makes a fuss with Kerry asking if she is okay.
Not only Natasha, but also Victoria has a serious face. Seeing that even Lina approached Kerry with surprised eyes, she felt a little sorry.
After a while, the group’s excitement began to subside.
And Kerry said.
“Do you think it’s okay to eat this?
If it was poison, something should have happened to me, but it doesn’t matter.”
“…”
The party suddenly stars at Kerry. Among them, Lina said with a serious face.
“No way, Kerry-sama, did you first check with your own body whether the water is safe to drink?”
What are you talking about with a serious face? Why do I do that
“Seobang-nim…Really…Is that so?”
“Coming to think of it, Lina is right. I’ve never seen Kerry do anything rash like this.
It’s hard to clear a dungeon anyway if there’s no drinking water… He drank the water first for us. Isn’t it? Kerry.”
“…”
She had nothing to refute.
It’s all because of Lina. Does Lina think of me as a great saint in history?
To check for poison with my own body? I am such a great person. No, it can’t be a hogu.
“…Anyway, the water seems to be fine, so drink comfortably everyone.”
“…”
I didn’t have anything to say, so I turned around, but that’s the atmosphere that has become the decisive blow to confirm the misunderstanding.
Natasha eventually burst into tears.
Victoria, too, brought her tears to her eyes her and urged her not to do that again.
It was the same with Lina.
Lina had to listen to the sermon while her party quenched their thirst.
‘…It would be less inconvenient to go around the dungeon.’
It was when Kerry was listening to Lina Sermon.
Natasha, who seemed to have calmed down after drinking the water, approached.
“By the way, Mr. West… How the hell did you find out about the trap?”
This is your chance to get out of Lina’s sermon!
Kerry answered right away.
Perhaps Rina was curious as well, so she stops her sermon and stares.
“When I was an adventurer in the past, I heard tips from someone who specializes in thieves.
After that, she developed her own eyes, and she was able to imitate the thieves, if not in detail.”
Of course it’s all good.
In the first place, Kerry does not work with thieves, that is, Doonger. She said, “All of these guys don’t have a mother, so they can’t even have a relationship.
To the extent that rumors are openly spreading throughout the industry that if you bring a doggie to a party, you will surely lose valuables.
For this reason, thieves are despised and despised.
“Looks like you have some great tricks. No matter how I looked at it, I couldn’t figure it out. Anyways, that’s great. Kerry.”
“It’s a tip…I want to hear that tip next time too. Kerry.”
“…”
If Lina wants to hear her tricks her, she does. That’s fucking embarrassing
“Actually, I said it was a trick… But I don’t know the details. It’s about hitting with luck.”
If an easy trap came up later, she felt like she had to pretend she didn’t know well and be wrong.
The party rested sufficiently at the fountain.
If it’s not ordinary water, let’s eat it. It feels like a little bit of energy. Now that you’ve had enough rest, it’s time to move.
The doll Seolsam is waiting for me.
“It moves slowly.”
“Yes. Kerry.”
Suddenly, Kerry was leading the party. Here she noticed that Kerry knew the dungeon best, so she took it for granted.
Lina sends her her unique trust-filled eyes. She is suddenly incredibly burdened.
Then a loud noise comes from somewhere.
Mmmm
“You mad cow! Won’t you go away?”
It was Nassen’s voice.
I glanced to her side and saw Natasha gnashing her teeth. Where is the sound coming from
It was difficult to find because of the sound echoing inside the labyrinth.
But it was certain that it was fairly close.
Kerry pulled out one of her trump cards that she had been saving.
“Kerry. That…”
“It is a magic storage orb. He’s the one with tracking magic. It’s impossible to use mana here, but…”
“…Maybe you could use the mana already stored in marbles. It is also Kerry.”
Kerry nodded her head. She may or may not be. She has nothing to lose by trying.
Kerry squeezed her mana storage orb into her hand.
At the same time, the mana storage orbs began to glow faintly.
