Golden Experience

Episode 344: Except you.

There are intruders at the site of Prospere.

Yes, Monkey and the others contacted Rare.

But I already know about this development.

It was not good that the Archbishop overprovoked King Pairé.

The Second Prince had reported a possible intruder into the Prospere ruins, and the King immediately questioned the relationship between the ruins and the Church.

In other words, there must be some connection between the fact that the First Prince turned into a monster in the south and the sudden increase in the Church's power.

And it seems that after the prince's retreat, the Church succeeded in some way in breaking through the Golems, connecting the intruders to the site of Prospere and gaining significant power.

It's a great insight.

Is it more insulting than ever to be born a phantom beast, an unparalleled superior race on the continent today?

And when it comes to why Rare knows such a thing, it is because she heard it from the person who was ordered to investigate it.

The Royal Guard Gordon, who was supposed to trust the Royal Family, who sent most of the knights to the ruins of the south.

King Ambrosius of Pare entrusted this Gordon with his troops and ordered the ruins to be investigated and sent out.

There are no Rare relatives in this unit but Gordon.

If so, even Gordon can't properly write a report and investigate it.

At least we need to go directly to the ruins.

Upon receiving this report, Rare increased his alertness to King Pare by several stages.

Once, when Gordons were on a "mission," he wanted Janet to infiltrate the royal castle, so he needed more than one ally. That's why I put all of Gordon's squads on a mission.

Only this time, Gordon was assigned to the investigation team, and the others had a slight smell of Kina.

I thought I was playing with ants rolling in my palm, but sooner or later, they spilled out of my hand and climbed up from my feet without knowing.

Because I had that feeling.

And it wasn't wrong.

"I see. I see. I don't know when it started, but apparently Gordon was suspected of being king."

In the depths of Prospere ruins, where a little more walking would see the entrance to the basement, Rare murmured looking down at dozens of fallen beasts.

These beasts are a team to investigate the ruins.

And Rare couldn't 'use' them.

Because they were already "in action" by other characters.

"... I'm sorry."

Kneeling before Rare, Gordon nodded.

"No, it's not your fault. The opponent was better at one... No, it was just a sweet idea.

I should have considered this possibility. "

All the guards Rae had 'served' in addition to Gordon are now ordered to do separate assignments, all in pieces.

There is no way King Pairé will know what is happening in this ruin in real time, but if this squad does not return, we will have a clear suspicion against Gordon.

Others could then be held in immediate custody.

King Pare probably put Gordon on a "mission", as Rare did.

And it was canceled.

As long as the NPC didn't hear the system message, King Pairé wouldn't know what hit it. But at least you've decided that you're not loyal to the royal family. If you had sworn allegiance, you wouldn't normally resist an "officer".

Though it was unclear whether it was just a precaution or a suspicion that the investigation team had been selected, the King put a "mission" on all of them, and Gordon wasn't the only one.

That's why they sent Gordon to the ruins with the intention of killing other members of the Survey team, judging him to be a royal rebel.

There must have been some purpose in pulling them away from Wang Du. If there were more than one other person, like Gordon, who the royal family could not 'serve', and if they were connected, they would deny Gordon grandeur in the King's Capital, threatening to get away with other crooks who don't know where he is.

"I guess it's more natural to think that the investigation team discovered it just in case they thought about keeping it as a knight, rather than thinking it was suspicious. So much so that I didn't do it during the first ancient document theft uproar, and I have no reason to dare doubt it after that.

I guess I just did it because I needed it. Keeping the investigative team in their families can bring back minimal information, even if they die during the investigation. So I happened to discover. "

If there were many knights left in King's Landing, I would have entrusted them with the investigation, but unfortunately there is only the minimum left to protect the castle.

But in any case, if we find out that he wasn't loyal to the royal trusted guards, all the soldiers guarding the castle's perimeter will be knights in the future.

I don't know how much a Phantom beast would have to pay to use a Beast, but given the current situation, I would have to do it somewhat imprudently.

"From now on, it will be difficult to grasp the trend of the pair. Even if it were a synagogue ─ ─"

The executives of the Episcopal Church can't all be 'operatives' in the Pairé royal family.

I wouldn't be able to say it racially or in terms of merit.

Nor do they seem to have loyalty to the royal family in the Church.

In some cases, the Gordons may also be considered to be in the hands of the Church.

The King linked the secrets and ruins of the power of the Episcopal Church and selected special forces to make it investigate.

And when I tried to "do my job" for the sake of perfection, I happened to be mixed with disturbing elements.

But I've already told you the details of the investigation team. We need to stick a piece before a disturber leaks information to his master.

So the disturbers decided to take him out as a team as planned, and they tried to get rid of him there.

I wonder where that is.

"Do they deserve to be questioned by the Royal Church? Looks like you rubbed your nerves in vain.

Besides, the soldiers around the royal castle have been tailored to be Niwaka Knights, which does not increase their physical strength, nor does it allow them to counter the invasion of shapes. The royal family has no choice but to use the church, knowing that the lion is a bug. "

By now, all soldiers in the Pairé royal castle will have been "operationalized" by the royal family.

And those who cannot be "operatives" are assigned separately and are constantly monitored. There have been no particularly prominent reports from guards other than Gordon, but they will not be watching to be noticed suddenly, and this is probably true.

No, given that all but Gordon of the investigation team were members of the royal family, it is likely that this was already the case before we left.

It is unclear whether the King is aware of the possibility that the Episcopal Church already has the power of the Phantom Beasts, but if he had not, he would have put a piece on it by ending the Gordons.

And if you had noticed, you would think that the Gordons were a family member of the Church. In that case, it is believed that Gordon's disposition was intended to restrain the Church.

In any case, it is dangerous to leave them in King's Landing.

We should let them pull it up and hide it somewhere.

It is necessary to scratch the movement of the royal castle well, but if you "summon" it when you enter a private room, such as a toilet, you can turn it off like smoke.

The problem is this investigation team. My face is also seen when I try the "Mission", and if they respawn in the King's Capital as it is, the King will know my presence. We have to do something about it. "

It cannot be killed in the true sense, nor can it be made into experimental material because it is a family member of others.

But nothing needs to be done forever. The Pairé kingdom does not survive for long, and it doesn't matter if you only deceive it for a while.

Personnel need to be pasted continuously, but there are people who are just getting busy.

After a series of ruins, Rare moved slowly over the area around the city of Keefa.

Since Gordon contacted me, I've been on the southern front of Keefa.

Ominas and Monica are watching and telling me to contact you if there is a sudden change in the situation.

I've left it up to Fox Okojo to deal with the Shape Army, but it's not a child, so it won't be a problem. At the time of departure, I feel like I was insisting that it was enough on my own.

To be honest, sometimes I get tired of them repeating similar fights over and over again.

"─ That? Something's wrong with Okojo. Well, a knight can't avoid a player's attack anyway."

Returning to the battlefield, Rare frowned at the lacking movement of Okojo.

During Rare's absence, the battle was gradually leaning. Monica didn't report it, so it should be.

There is no way to avoid the range attack of the indicative player, and Okojo gets hit directly in the rear leg and loses his posture.

The knights and tank players rushed in and the impact turned Okojo upside down.

Even though there are many, it is impossible in reality for human-sized organisms to flip that size of organism. Only if there is a system that improves the performance of organisms called talent. Or maybe he's using some kind of skill that makes it easier for him to lose his posture.

But Okojo doesn't just roll.

The enemy is knocked down by the tail of the fetter, and a flame blows out of his mouth, burning his surroundings.

Okojo seems to be good at brace attacks. It seems to be a mixture of races that allow for braces.

When it comes to braces, it's a skink that says it's familiar, but where did they come from? There are plenty of pairless skins just north, but that's Lyla's family. I need Lyla's permission to use it as a material.

The fallen Okojo is scattered with even more magic.

This is a growing upper body job on the head.

Previously, the Enhanced First Prince did not seem to be very good at melee fights, but based on this, he encouraged members of the Church to acquire magic.

I couldn't do this from the field, so I had to leave it entirely to him, but he managed to get it for me on a practical level.

Even with a slightly lower rank of magic, it has a high INT, so it can be expected to be quite effective.

"But maybe we can't do this anymore. Too much time."

The knights defeated at the beginning come back to life when the one-cycle battle time exceeds one hour.

Even though players are instantly resurrected, time is only an enemy for Okojo.

Players become weaker each time they rise, but this weakening cycle lasts an hour. A good leader on the player's side will mesh well with the resurrection cycle of the knights of the NPC and spin with minimal power loss.

At the very least, if Okojo recovered regularly, she might have endured a little more ─ ─.

"Oh, because I'm gone"

The Church's experimental animals are performing at a satisfactory level, but endurance is difficult for enemies who are resurrecting infinitely.

Even if the site is destroyed because of "regeneration", it will revert to normal in time, but that doesn't matter if you continue to take damage that exceeds the recovery speed of LP.

"The concept of operating on a single rider is impossible in the first place. I need someone to help me recover or something."

It is enough to see such problems.

Okojo did well.

─ ─ …… ─ ─ ……

"That, you're saying something. I don't know."

Repeatedly attacked by players and knights, Okojo is screaming for something with a buildup of tingling and damage.

If you leave him alone for a while, he will probably fall, but if you have something to say, you can ask him.

Rare descended quietly down the stairs in the air, approaching a position where she could hear Okojo's voice.

"─ ─ Septemoo! Where have you been?! Hah... hah, hah, hah, no, support me, support me!

Listen, I lost it.

I don't know if I'm proud or not, but this is the word that shook Okapa's throat and cried when she was in the comb.

"Are you listening...?! Septum, let's go!

Seeing the gap between screaming and neglecting attacks can be an opportunity, or the intensive fire of players and knights can increase in intensity.

It gradually weakens the light in Okojo's LP, and even the screaming voice is interrupted.

Finally, Okojo's LP ran out so that the fire could go out.

"─ ─ I knocked it down!

"I did it!

"Looks like a zombie attack!

"Are you bumpy? What is that?"

"Ah, I see. Can't a world with zombies actually have such a slang? I wonder what to say. Zombie attack is ─ ─"

The knights and players who defeated Okojo are happy to join hands.

When I was harassing guerrillas, I didn't think they were so close, but I wonder if the feeling of solidarity also grew in the battle with Okojo.

In the meantime, valuable combat data could be taken, as could problems in future operations.

We won't be here any longer, and we will have earned enough time.

Command the lord to lift the guerrillas and tell them to focus on defending Keefa. The Shape Army and the players will know that the city is the base of guerrillas, and normally the city will be attacked in order to cut it off.

But shapes don't have time to spare either.

If there are no more guerrilla attacks, we may ignore the key façade and move on.

Or even if Keefa were attacked, he would give up as soon as he held his guard tight and caged the castle.

But there was someone who noticed Rare trying to leave.

"─ It's not over yet! Look up there! There's something here!

Sounds familiar.

This voice is certainly one that one day taught Rare the existence of 'Healing Magic'.

He pioneered healers in this game.

That means one of the most vigilant players.

I didn't think it was mixed up in this group.

"White robe... Perhaps you ─ ─"

White robe mastermind.

Seventh disaster.

Perverts have already seen the connection.

"─ ─ Seventh disaster, Septum!

Apparently, the name is also pervasive.

It seems that the perverts introduced us well.

"Well then, now that he was screaming like Septum...."

"You were calling for a seventh calamity!

"Summoning the next Raid Boss at the end of the day is bad enough for you....."

I also feel like I'm not wrong, but I'm also decidedly wrong.

Okojo didn't call me here.

While the players make noise, the NPC knights are bewildered.

You must have witnessed a sudden increase in tension between the players who had struggled to defeat the big Raid Boss and were supposed to be biting the victory together.

"─ ─ Were you pulling the thread behind this war?!

The healer's girlfriend ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wayne and his clan wrote in the thread that they wanted to end the war quickly, and if they were acting with such players, they would be interested in the truth of the war.

But there's no reason to tell you.

"─ What's in it for me to do that?

"Oh, that's...! That, of course, is to bring chaos to the continent!

"So what's in it for me to bring chaos to the continent?

The warm hands silence with remorse.

"─ It would be to bring chaos and destroy this continent by competing with humanity!

A man who was nearby followed.

I recognize this man, too.

If you look closer to where your hands are warm, it's probably Amatein.

Do you go out with her? Is this the rear charge?

"Something seems wrong."

The Magic Eye aimed at an inappropriate location and activated Hellflame.

There will be many players who can use this magic itself, but in addition to its high stat, it is not comparable to the attack of the Demon King, which is aided by numerous self-enhancements such as "Magic Reason".

Burning flames melted the earth, and scattered heat distorted vision.

I was going to keep it close enough, but I got into some trouble because I didn't want to see it.

The knights and players are stunned by the appearance of their companions who disappeared without leaving a body in an instant, and by the tingling and burning of their skin.

"If you just want to destroy the continent, you don't need chaos. I'll be fine by myself."

It is originally considered to be a powerful demon king by itself.

If you can't do that, I'm sorry for the other misfortune seniors.

There will be a thank you one day. I could have killed the amateurs here once, but seeing this amazing face also lowered my drinking.

Except his hands are warm.

If you just lost a fight, you can win the next time you fight.

However, we can no longer overturn the merit of "discovering 'recovery magic' sooner than anyone else."

In that regard, this player is forever on the rare.

Many other players may have discovered rare and unknown skills, but 'Healing Magic' is a skill that I've been concerned about since the beta test.

Given the versatility and importance of "Recovery Magic", her name will never be forgotten in this game.

The only way to dispel this sense of defeat is to line up with another feat.

It is also thought that Okojo called and appeared, and I would like to correct it.

"I wonder if you can understand that I've become quiet.

And I didn't come here because I was called by this man. Because I had better business with him.

─ ─ Resurrection "

Rare's magic heals Okojo's wounded body like a rewind of video.

I won't be able to return to my worn-out suit that is caught in my upper body, but it doesn't play a big role in my overall defense, and I don't mind.

This magical resuscitation also restores all lost LPs and MPs to their maximum values. Never checked, but probably fatigue and other gauges as well.

That's why we're re-partitioning.

"Really, resurrection magic...? No way....."

What I don't know is that there is still no magician who used the heart of Zagreus himself.

Seeing his beautiful face distorted by his warm astonishment, Rare finally got over it.

"You Gentiles have attacked my garden many times without punishment, and I'm sure you like to fight and you can't help it.

I have prepared a refill for you in such a profound business, so enjoy it to your heart's content. I'll see you later. "

Okojo, who had regained consciousness, stood up shaking his neck, naturally a human face.

When I checked it, I ran up to the sky with the "Sky Drive" and left the scene with the "Summon Monster".

After all, I haven't said anything about whether I was pulling the thread in the back or what the purpose would be, but I don't think it's going anywhere.
