31. Striker (1)
The next day.
Amkena ran the dungeon one lap each day, then sent the 2nd party, led by Edith, to the 4th floor. Then, we tried to send our first party of three to the 6th floor, but the dungeon did not open.
[warning! Re-entry to that dungeon is not possible.]
‘I told you not to sell your eyes like that.’
When a stream is activated, the dungeon belonging to it cannot be re-entered. If you have a special skill, there is nothing you can’t do, but at this point it was impossible.
Jenna muttered as she scratched the back of her head.
“Why aren’t you doing anything?”
“wait.”
After thinking for a while, Amkena made a decision.
[The main dungeon is currently on the 7th floor.]
[The door will open in 10 seconds. Get ready!]
“It’s the 7th floor. Get ready.”
“Brother, the number of people has decreased from yesterday…”
“Enough.”
To go to the 4th floor, the level is high, so the experience is low.
You can’t go to the 5th floor. The boss stage was also impossible to re-enter.
As you can see, the 6th floor is blocked, and the only option left for the master is to send us back or challenge the 7th floor.
I wanted to try out the berserk I used last time, but the right stage came just in time. Light covered the gap in time and space, and we were summoned to an unfamiliar place.
‘The field is plain. But it’s a bit different.’
shoot it
A heavy rain was falling on the plain where we were standing. The rain poured down relentlessly and soaked the whole body.
Jenna made a fuss and brushed her hair.
“What is this!”
“It’s cool, isn’t it?”
I drew my sword from its scabbard. Raindrops scattered along the sword’s trajectory.
The enemy was in front.
[Floor 7.]
[Mission Type – Subjugation]
[Goal – Exterminate the enemy!]
[Goblin Lv.8 X 13]
Red eyes shone in the heavy rain.
Huge goblins armed with armor and weapons screamed. Aaron held out his spear with a confident expression.
“Thank God, brother! This is worth trying!”
We got into formation quickly. One party is three people. Swordsman Changsha archer respectively. The composition of personnel for Geunjungwon is perfect. I practiced formation as well as I got tired of it.
I was in the lead, and Jenna, with Aaron feeding arrows to the lieutenant, stood in the rear.
“Kiaaa!”
The goblins also stood in their positions. Depending on the weapon you have, you fall backwards or forwards.
In the pouring rain, we and the enemy split into two teams.
No words were needed. The battle started with the signal fire from both sides of the archers. I knocked the bolt towards Jenna with my shield and broke it. Jenna lowered her stance to the floor and fired an arrow.
There is a high risk of blocking a frontal shot against an enemy holding a shield. So aim for the bottom. The arrow pierced the lead goblin’s leg.
While I was distracted, my sword and Aaron’s spear took my life.
‘Activate it.’
As I hit the goblin’s teeth-baring face with a shield, I remembered the feeling.
[‘Han( )’ went into a berserk state!]
The sword broke through the goblin’s shield and cut him in half from the head. Blood mingled with raindrops splattered in all directions.
slaughter and slaughter
Elevation boiled over. Every time the sword was swung, the goblins were cut into pieces. I could taste blood in my mouth. The rain seeping through the cracks in my armor did not cool my body.
Before I knew it, I was standing in the middle of the goblin corpses.
only one left. He’s holding a broken sword. Jenna aimed her bow at the goblin.
I raised my hand to restrain Jenna.
“Wait, don’t shoot!”
“Why? It’s damp, so I want to go back quickly.”
The battle is almost over.
Then it was time to take a look at this stage. Since the previous mission was an exploration, there is a high probability that this mission will also belong to a chain quest. I looked around the neighborhood.
First special feature.
It’s raining.
second.
A river is flowing.
“Kiaag!”
The goblin, waving its broken sword up and down, lunged at me. I hit him in the side face with my shield.
“Kack!”
I passed the ugly guy and approached the riverside.
Quarrrrr.
The rivers that crossed the plains were overflowing with torrential rain. It’s not a situation to cross. On the day you stumble and fall, you will be swept away in an instant and drown.
I got closer to the river.
‘Has the dam collapsed?’
Remnants of collapsed stones and dirt were seen near the river. I looked around, but nothing else caught my eye. I drove my sword into the fallen goblin’s back.
As I finished it off, a ground-shaking sound shook the ground slightly.
[Stage clear!]
[‘Aaron ( )’ level up!]
[Reward – 10000G Iron Ore (C) X 2 Leather (C) X 1]
[MVP – ‘Han ( )’]
Returned to the space-time gap.
The rain is dry, as if the soaked body seems to be recognized as something to be restored. Jenna squinted her eyes and brushed her red hair.
After the shaking that signaled the rise to the floor was over, we came out to the plaza.
In the plaza, Edith was chatting with the party members at the fountain. It seems to be giving feedback on the last battle. Jenna waved her hand.
“sister!”
“Ah, you guys are here too.”
“Brother, today’s schedule is over, right? Can I go?”
“Do as you will.”
“yeah!”
I turned to Aaron and said.
“What are you going to do? It’s late.”
“I’m thinking of going to the training camp.”
“Do it in moderation. Ruin your body.”
I walked to the inn. I have no intention of spreading the word about going back. Just like on the 6th floor, I have to record the information I got this time. It was not a good idea to train unconditionally to prepare for battle.
Enter the accommodation through the gate of the square.
When I glanced back, the door to the summoning station was open.
“…”
came out again. Aaron was about to grab his spear and enter the training center.
“Aaron, don’t go.”
“Yes? What are you doing?”
I looked up. The sky is shining with rainbow colors.
After a while, the control window came to mind.
[If you want something right now, pay now!]
[Mobius supports the master’s choice!]
[You chose ‘Newbie Potent Double Package!’]
[Package components – 5,000 gems, 100,000 gold]
[All of this for only 90,000 KRW Won!]
[The amount will be added to the next month’s mobile phone bill. Are you sure you want to pay?]
[Yes (optional) / No]
This was Amkena’s third charge.
[Payment has been completed!]
[Product has been delivered by mail. Please check!]
Jenna and Edith are chatting about something.
“So yes. What kind of drool talk does my brother have when he sleeps…”
“Jenna!”
“Huh? You haven’t gone yet?”
“Stop talking nonsense. Get the lot from my room. It’ll be on the table in my room. The one I pulled last time.”
“It’s annoying…”
Jenna muttered as she headed towards the dorm.
Edith asked.
“What’s going on?”
“I think newcomers will come. People you know like you.”
‘I thought I would pull it out.’
As long as the party is divided into 3 people, it is natural to add more people.
However, in the current state, there is no talent to fit into the party. Although some guys are rolling at the training center, they need time to grow.
Then you have no choice but to choose.
‘Even if there are people who have never paid, there is no one who has only paid once.’
I laughed as I recalled a proverb that was widely passed down in official cafes. In addition, Amkena must have gained enlightenment in the last incident.
That you shouldn’t recklessly use paid lottery.
The cause is good though.
In any case, there are principles and methods in paid lottery. If you just pull out a lot like other games because you have a lot of gems, you will lose 100%.
In Pick Me Up, we must not forget that each hero has its own characteristics and personality.
‘slowly. And little by little.’
[Master Advanced Summon begins! You selected 2 consecutive advanced summons. A total of 1000 gems are consumed. Do you want to summon it?]
[Yes (optional) / No]
If there are two people, Edith and I can share one.
It seemed that he finally understood the method of effective summoning.
[Master Advanced Summons begin. I can’t wait to see what kind of hero will come out!]
[Talkak Durururu]
[Two-kwang!]
[Rare!]
[Master ‘Amkena’ has learned the hero ‘Roderick (★★★)’!]
[Rare!]
[Master ‘Amkena’ has learned the hero ‘Iolka (★★★)’!]
A strong light is emitted from the Summoning Station.
The gaze of the party, including me, was focused on the entrance.
After a while, a man and a woman walked out of the summoning station one by one.
A man in chain mail with a spear behind his back and a young woman in a fancy dress.
‘Why is he dressed like that?’
“Who are you?”
The man in the armor turned to us and said.
Although he was a middle-aged man with gray hair, the outline of his body revealed under the armor was robust.
“That’s later. Do you remember why you came here?”
“Um…”
the man pondered, furrowing his eyebrows. At the threshold of the summons, the woman tilted her head with an expression of incomprehension.
The door to the summoning station slammed shut and pushed the woman away.
“Oops!”
fluff.
The woman screamed and fell on the square.
“Brother, I brought you lots… Huh? New people have arrived. What are their names?”
“Roderick Sazan.”
“What is that sister doing lying down?”
“Don’t worry. It will wake up on its own.”
“Who are you? I ask for the second time.”
“I am Han. This is Edith.”
I asked Roderick how he got here.
As expected, he couldn’t remember how he got there. He was serving as a security guard in a large city, but when he came to his senses, he said that he was here. And he said that a strange sense of duty kept coming to his mind.
“It’s like I have to do something. It’s like hypnosis.”
I then asked what he knew about the waiting room.
Roderick was aware of the core concepts including Master and Summon Synthesis. However, I did not know concepts such as levels and skills. It was the same with Edith.
At this point, the characteristics of three-star heroes were established. It seemed that there was no need to ask the woman.
As I did with Edith, I briefly explained the waiting room and its rules.
“Do I have to fight unknown enemies here?”
Roderick muttered in a broken voice.
The one remaining woman fell to the floor and did not know how to get up.
is it a joke
There are times when, with a very low probability, a hero with a high level but not worth it is summoned. In a profane word, it is attached to luck.
Aaron, who was worse off, approached and lifted the woman up.
The woman staggered to her feet.
“Thank you. My head is a little dizzy.”
“It’s nothing.”
Edith muttered so that only I could hear.
“I am noble.”
“nobility?”
“If you live as a mercenary for a long time, you will know. You seem like an immature young lady, how did you come here?”
‘Come to think of it, everyone except me is from Taoni.’
Anyway, it’s time for the draft. The master didn’t distribute two people to the party as if he knew.
“There are two lots. If you pick red, that man. If you pull blue, you get a girl. Any objections?”
“No.”
“Jenna. Bring the lot this way.”
“Yes, I’m going. Alas.”
Jenna staggered as her foot caught on the protruding part of the plaza. Jenna quickly rolled her foot to regain her balance. In the wind, Jenna’s swallow box swayed up and down. ‘Right is red. Left is blue.
‘
You can look at the status window, but I don’t want to write a foul in a place like this. Even if I did, it was clear who to pick. A seasoned guard with a long career and an aristocratic lady who doesn’t know. Edith also has her eyes on the right lot. Just like me
. “Then let’s go!”
Jenna
puts the barrel down between me and Edith.
I don’t care if the power of the current sub lags behind us.
I draw the right side. Add Roderick with the spear to the middle line And at that moment,
a flame rose from the woman’s hand, and
Edith’s
and mine’s hands moved like lightning to the swallow on the left and overlapped
