Adventurers Who Don’t Believe in Humanity Will Save The World

[Survivor] continued his offense.

Keep walking, resting, and walking again as you kick your firebirds and salamanders. It is an unfamiliar climb for anyone but Nick, and drains heavily. But Nick's good hand-working and Zem's healing magic were working, and even with fatigue, he never stood up for discomfort or incarceration. Rather, the summit was becoming slightly larger in sight, and everyone, even felt worthwhile doing it.

"Some guys just attack mountain-type labyrinths. They say mountain maniacs and mountain adventurers."

Everyone giggles at Nick's words.

"I like eagles here so much, Na. Nice view, Si."

"I don't hate you either. But the woods are more heartwarming."

"That's because you can pick herbs, right? I'm a little nigger. I'm not attracted to climbing mountains to change my mood, but the magic of fire is too strong."

"Speaking of which, I hear novelists and poets also climb mountains. The postscript says mountains are the best way to get away with editing and deadlines."

"Be an adventurer if you want to get that far."

I could afford to have this chat. Firebird Peak was a scenic mountain if only it had adequate heat control and yet had the power to defeat demons.

And around halfway to the point of the hiking trail, [Survivor] stepped into the terrain like a soaking bowl of squares. A demon stands to sleep so prominent that it can be seen from a distance at its center.

"That's the inside boss. Step into the territory and you'll wake up."

"Medium boss?

Karan repeated Nick's words.

"With this labyrinth of difficulty, besides the deepest boss, there will appear a boss who will guard the midpoint. In the case of Flamingo Peak…"

"A blast needle rat. I didn't want to meet you here..."

Tiana squeaks as she stares at the demon at the center of the rind bowl from a distance. I could tell the demon looked exactly like a big hare. Something like a big bear, I guess, for size. And what's more distinctive is that they're surprisingly growing pile-like thickness needles on their backs.

"You were gonna fly a needle in your back, weren't you?

"Oh, you know what I mean."

"I've only defeated you once."

"How?

"I made it icy. That way, they won't even fly needles."

"... you can't do it here"

Tiana agrees with Nick without force.

"That's right... So, what do you do?

"It's a needle measure first, but it doesn't hit me very accurately. Aim at it."

"But that needle's gonna explode, right?

Nick nods at Tiana's words.

That was the hallmark of the exploding needle rat and the way it was attacked.

The needle can be fired freely, and the needle is combined with the bomb.

"That's right. So it's bad to avoid it in a critical way. The blast will damage you."

"How powerful is it?

Nick answered Zem's words with a sinister face.

"If I hadn't taken any measures, I'd be strong enough for the meat to be decided."

"That's scary"

"It's just fine if you use" robust "or set up protective gear or keep it tight. And then you better be careful not to get blown away by the blast."

"When I fire at it, I really stop moving. It's not hard to avoid if you're not in a hurry and watch your movements."

There, Karan pinched his mouth.

"Hard to prevent with a sword, Ka?

"It's pretty powerful. The sword is fine, but I think you're going to have a hell of a shock..."

"Then no kah..."

My tail drips with sogginess. Karan had a strange obsession with preventing powerful attacks or fighting back against such enemies.

"But you're scared of the blast, aren't you? Don't you have to take care of that?

"We will rely on Zem's" robustness "..."

"Of course I'll use it, but you shouldn't be too overconfident. Because it's still inferior to full-scale defensive magic."

"Sure."

"Wouldn't it be in good shape for everyone to hide in Karan's dragonbone sword while I was pushing back with wind magic?

"Can you go?

"I can't use ice magic at all, but if it's the wind, I'll manage. I've been warm, and it's time to do something like me."

Tiana smiles pretentiously and confidently.

"That's reliable"

"Besides, it's important to think about it as a defensive subject, but why don't you also think about putting an end to it quickly before letting your opponent attack you? It would be a shame to leave Karan alone as a defenseman."

"Then... Karan's role is to choose between a shield and a sword."

Everyone's gaze gathers in Karan.

"Hmmm... which is better na...?

"Well, to be honest, I can't defeat either. Hopefully you'll just keep your needles in mind. Let's just make the policy clear. You can't just go in there obscure."

"There are hands that use my power. Then you'll never get lost?

"" "" That's no good ""

All rejected Kizna's proposal at the same time.

"Become, why then!?

"So far, I'm so different from people, but I don't know who's in and out. You're not gonna find out."

"Besides, you're going to wear it out. Use it with your boss."

To Nick and Tiana's words, the two of us who stay are nodding yeah.

"I don't know, I just don't make much of an appearance!

"Is it time to" merge "...?

"Though I would be the brightest"

"I don't think shining as an adventurer means simply dazzling."

While Nick pointed that out, he slapped Pam in the hand and re-partitioned the discussion.

Even as I leaked my laughter, everyone's mind tightened.

◆

While the [Survivor] faces were fussy, the policy eventually decided, and he stepped into the territory of the blast needle rat (Kunso). At that moment, the lid of the detonating needle split open and his sharp canine teeth protruded.

"Guru......!

Explosive needle rattles throat and intimidate.

The exploding needle rat voice, as tall as a person, and more than twice as tall as a person, is low and heavy, sounding all over the soaking bowl of ground.

"His needle is powerful, you can't be alarmed. But..."

The moment Nick nearly said so, the detonating needle rat turned his back twirling.

And a razor-blackening needle was fired.

"You can't just turn around and hit it right."

As Nick said, the needle fell far ahead of the Nicks.

At the same time Tiana bewitches.

"Whirlwind!"

Focusing on the wand, there was a severe twitch.

It's not as strong as "Breeze" or anything, but if it's a small animal, it's strong enough to blow away easily. This time it is a defensive sorcery used to counter the blast that is coming, but also used to prevent poison fog, dust, flames, etc.

"Robust"!

And Zem exercised supportive magic.

The first hand was completely controlled by a whirlwind opposed to the blast and a defense by supportive witchcraft.

I was wondering if adhesive would come in the midst of intense dust and dust.

"Shh...!

Karan ran out to the blast needle.

The power of the blast is not the only horror of a detonating needle. That cowardice. It is a character that behaves cautiously in encounters with enemies, and the needle does not become indiscriminate. But once you get attacked and panic, whether you have a bad vision or you get yourself caught in an explosion, you break out of your predicament anyway. It would be a pain in the ass if that happened. If you are confident in your defense, you can also take the maneuver of withstanding more than you can until you run out of needles, but it is difficult to get in here with heavy equipment such as metal armor or or a large shield unless it is a hiking trail and you are proud of your extra strength. It was also possible to engage in defensive combat around Karan if it were the most [survivors], but we all thought it could not be a very good operation given the wear and tear caused by the long battle.

"Guru!?"

So I opted for a quick attack to minimize wear and tear.

It was the dragon-like glance of Karan that captured the eye of the exploding needle rat as the earth and dust were clearing.

"Whoa!

An explosive needle rat terrorized him, turning his back twitchy.

Then fire four or five needles together.

One fell under Karan's feet and the ground burst.

"Ku......!

Once again, vision is closed by dirt and dust.

The rest of the needle was also pierced to the ground by a time difference and began to make a deafening roar.

"That's what I thought was coming."

The exploding needle rat trembled.

There was a child with a sword at the end of the blast rat's turn.

Anticipating turning his back on Karan, Kizna was sneaking around.

And Kizna wasn't the only one who was hiding and acting on Karan.

"This one's fine."

"Nick, I'm done."

"Ooh."

Karan was shielding his dragonbone sword and twirling it into an even deeper green cloth.

The identity of the cloth is a tent for camping. Waterproof and flame retardant, it is popular with mid-sized and advanced adventurers. The moment it exploded right next to Karan, Nick was nodding to the spot by spreading it and holding Karan back. You may say the blast was completely prevented.

"Don't flirt with me when I'm busy!

"Uuuuuuuuuu, you're not!

On the other hand, Kizna's sword dance was totally flirting with the explosive needle rat.

He is slashing him with a knife that returns his nails, begins his fangs, and drives a blasting needle rat like a stuffed chess.

"Gururu...!?"

"Let it go."

And with a distracting voice, the neck of the blast needle rat was jumped by Kizna's sword flash.
