We left the Starting Circle and went into the corridor to the South Area.
This time, we plan to take the shortest route to get to the middle level.
The first half, the middle, and the second half of the "South Area" map purchased from Igsy-kun, who sold the map, were combined to determine the shortest route.
This is also the shortest route to reach the Area Master.
[Area Master]... exactly before entering the [Submaster] floor, there is a path leading to the middle floor.
I came to the first three branches.
Last time I took the left route, I came back with the central route on my way home, but this time I took the central route from the beginning.
Because it's the shortest route.
If the map is accurate, follow this route past thirty-two floors, and you'll see a bifurcated path that leads to the middle floor.
Since we have to go through a great number of floors, it would be impossible to reach the branch to the middle level by the evening if we proceeded properly.
If you're an ordinary adventurer, it would take about three days.
That's why I'm trying to get through each floor as quickly as possible to achieve my goal.
Of course, we had to defeat the monsters that were attacking us, but we were trying to avoid them as much as possible.
On the way back, I could defeat a rare monster, search for a rare herb, or whatever I could.
The members are me and Nia, Lily, and Chappie, so I intend to use the "Flight" skill set in "Shared Skill" to leave each floor as soon as possible.
Well, Nia can fly by itself.
It's an unpopular "South Area", so you'll almost never meet an adventurer after passing a few floors at the beginning.
After passing the first five floors, I think I will fly and move.
There were no other adventurers on the third floor at the beginning, but... just in case, I decided to enter the fourth floor normally.
And that was the correct answer.
There was an adventurer ahead of us.
And I was alone.
And it looks familiar.
That girl... she was a new adventurer girl who was tangled in a cuppard with her bubbles at the guild reception a while ago.
When Toyaki and Bonzler, the executives of the "Skull Klan", were turned into "monsters" in the prison facility of the Guard, they also treated the seriously injured.
This is the third time we have met.
We should be careful about interacting with adventurers in the labyrinth... but she'll remember us too.
And they were relatively close to the entrance, so they also noticed us coming in.
Looking at me.
Hey, we see you again.
I call out with a natural voice.
Thank you.
I feel a little uncomfortable, but he gave me an audition.
After all, she seems to be a quiet child.
"Are you challenging the labyrinth by yourself?" That's amazing. "
"Yes, I'm more comfortable alone..."
She has a subtle bitter smile.
Speaking of which, Nia solicited the clan before, but for a while she wanted to work alone, so she turned me down.
Nevertheless, at the beginning, it was amazing to go up to four floors by yourself.
Do you have enough healing pills?
"Yes, it's okay, don't worry."
Well then, we'll hurry first.
"Yes, take care."
I thought it was annoying to talk too long, so we were allowed to move on.
I glanced at him, but he had a magic gun.
She seems to be fighting solo with a magic gun.
With a magic gun, I might be able to fight on my own to some level.
You just have to take them out before they get close.
Well, it depended on the power and skill of the magic gun.
It's a big favor... but I'm still worried that I'm fighting alone.
I entered the fifth floor and confirmed that there were no adventurers, so I decided to use the "Flight" skill to travel to my destination at a high speed.
We passed through the thirty-second floor and arrived at the desired location.
I was able to get here almost without a fight because I flew and moved with my "Flight" skill.
Sometimes a flying monster attacked me, but I instantly killed it and collected it in the "Wave Storage".
The road is divided into three parts.
On the map, there was a main road to the floor where the submaster was waiting for, and a road to the left that led to the middle level.
But there are some passages on the right that aren't on this map.
Intriguing, but for now, let's ignore it.
Trust the map and enter the path on the left.
...... After a while, I went out to the big square.
It was like a starting circle at the beginning of the upper floors.
It's probably made the same way.
This seems like the place to call a mid-rise starter circle.
Normally, I think that it is in a completely different orientation from the upper starting circle, but the labyrinth is entrained by the ant's nest structure, so it may be an unexpectedly close position.
There are eight roads that are connected.
Four of them seem to be the path to the east, west, south, and north areas.
The other four, like the aisle I came from, would lead to the upper east, west, north, south, and west areas.
From here, it seems that it can go to the east, west, south, and north areas of the middle floor, and it can also climb to the east, west, south, and north areas of the upper floor.
It was like a labyrinthine junction.
I think this middle level starter circle is about twice the size of the upper level.
Anyway, it's huge.
It's a bright space, even though it's a meadow and a labyrinth.
The passageway in the labyrinth was almost dim.
Each floor can vary depending on the floor, whether it's a dim floor, fairly bright, or just as bright at day or dark at night as outside.
Perhaps the middle class was like that too.
I chose the aisle that leads to the closest aisle, the South Area.
Down the aisle, after a while, a branch of Mikata appeared.
It felt the same as the upper layer.
Somehow, I went into the aisle on the left.
... in the grassland area... it doesn't feel particularly like there's a waterfront.
Unlike the upper floors, the "southern area" of the middle floor may not be an area with a lot of waterfront.
In the meantime, would you like to register this as a transfer destination?
Although it's the first floor at the beginning, there shouldn't be many adventurers coming to the middle level, so even if they show up here for a transfer, they won't have to worry about seeing it.
While doing so, the monster that noticed our sign came at us immediately.
It was a pack of werewolf monsters that attacked us.
But it was different from the wolf monsters I'd seen before.
There is a long drill-like horn on the forehead.
According to the "Wave Appraisal", the "race" is "Ivil Hornwolf".
I decided to call it the Horned Wolf Monster.
Level 40.
At the beginning, there was a level 40 monster on the first floor.
Moreover, it was attacked by a herd of twenty...
This... even the top ranker adventurer, I think it would be very difficult if the 20 level 40 monsters came together...
Somehow, the middle layer... feels like it's impossible to gamble.
I think these werewolf monsters are the boss monsters on this floor.
While I was thinking about it, the monsters were getting close, but I didn't think I'd be able to get out.
Nia, Lily, and Chappie have already intercepted it.
Twenty or so monsters are not very good enemies to us.
