Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai
Episode 353 Frozen Processing
"----" Iceberg Wall (Eyes Lampart Devan) ""
The advanced range defense magic of the ice attribute activated by the Chairman completely iced the tunnel-like large straight passage from end to end.
In addition to full chanting, I also placed ceremonial offerings, which I released after careful preparation that I couldn't do in regular combat.
Floors, walls and ceilings in aisles. Everything is frozen. More precisely, it is nicely covered by ice of equal thickness.
The Basilisk is arranged to enclose this passage, and the wall of the tower itself, a sturdy magical building, is a shield to protect them. I know you're there, but I can't hit the basilisk directly.
On the other hand, they don't come out of the aisle.
The only structure necessary to operate this as a trap filled with poison gas is the duct that pours the basilisk brace. As I and Natsukawa-san have seen, gas spews from every part of the passage at the same time.
So, if you block all the aisles, the brace won't flow in.
Momokawa-kun, are you sure you're okay with this?
"The Basilisk Poison Breath doesn't have any physical power." It's a 100% poison damage attack, so it's not destructive enough to break the Chairman's ice. "
Even if it looked like thin ice, it was an advanced range defense magic. If we don't use the power we need, we can't crush it. If we're going to break it in one breath, that's why the salamander has to blow the fire.
"Besides, we also have antidotes for poison gear." In case, even if the gas is full, it can run out. "
I wasn't expecting to use the entire basilisk as a trap, but I anticipated the possibility of poison gas traps and attacks.
If you are going to a place that is full of poisonous gases, you can wear the wind attribute lower-level defensive magic "Wind Shield (Yale Sild)" as a kind of gas-proof equipment, and you can deal with it with just magic items that block the outside air.
When I made fireproof equipment in the Goma Kingdom, I made items that supplied air with wind attribute magic instead of oxygen cylinders, but this time it was like a developmental form.
But look, I've never had to take poison gas before. As for the wind barrier, it would be better to seal off the poison gas first as insurance.
---- Look, you're okay, right?
"At times like these, you're a stone's throw, Momokawa-kun."
I walk across the aisle safely, holding hands with my toddler girl Lem and walking like a walk.
The purple poison gas never leaked out, and the passage remained the same.
Then, if I, who had crossed the frozen aisle, proved my safety with Doya's face, the chairman said such a thing with a half-dazed face.
Well, I'm experiencing with my own body that I can disable the Basilisk Poison Breath in the [Orphan Venom], so it's just more secure than anyone else. That's why you didn't have to look at me with such a worrying look on your face, Mei-chan.
I want to think that the feeling of trust that Apricot was seeing with a fine face was that I would be fine...
Well then, please take your turn.
The first time I crossed the aisle, I summoned a new Skeleton, patrolled it from the end of the aisle to the top of the stairs, and laid out a vigilance to keep the boss monsters out of the way.
The remaining members on the other side were on rear alert with Natsugawa-san as their mentor.
We need to be careful about the poison trap here, but it's also troublesome to get spoiled in places like this.
Kotaro-kun...
What's the matter, Mae-chan?
Mei, who had left as the second in line, ran through the aisle and came to me in an instant. She whispered as she looked at the surroundings with a serious look.
"Somehow, I have a bad feeling about this. let's do something about it....."
Is that intuitive?
Yeah, it's somehow a hunch, so I don't know what it's like.
Yeah, that's not good. Very uncomfortable.
”... should I stop you from crossing here?”
"But this is the only way forward, isn't it?" I guess we'll have to get across as soon as possible. "
The trouble is, that's the structure. That's why I could say I laid a basilisk trap.
But if we hurry here and let the rest of them get across, they're in danger of being wiped out.
"Come across in pairs!" There may still be something set up here! ”
"Oh, oh, I see!"
Well then, let's go, Hayama.
With a sense of tension, Hayama-kun and Apricot began to combine, holding Coyuki and Aoi in both hands.
The apricot proceeds without fear. It was a walk as grand as walking along the corridor of Shirakubo Gakuen with my face.
Meanwhile, Hayama-kun carefully stepped on his feet while being extremely vigilant.
"Whoa, ah, ahhhh!? It's dangerous!?"
On the frozen floor, my legs slipped and I almost fell, and in the end, I couldn't stand it.
Just as Hayama-kun thought of the moment when he completely lost his balance, Koyuki took it off his arm and decided on a gorgeous landing with cat-like agile body control. Aoi also leaned on his feathers and slowly descended onto the ice floor. Behind him, there was a master who fell into a stupid open crotch.
What are you doing, Hayama?
"Hey, what are you doing, I..."
Hayama-kun, who rolled into a big letter, was half-weeping at the sight of Apricot, who could not stand the stare of her dazed eyes all the time.
"Even if I show you all these gaps, nothing will happen..."
In the end, Apricot and Hayama's combination ended up crossing the aisle safely.
As soon as I saw Hayama-kun, who fell like a gag, thinking it was the perfect time to set something up, I and Mei entered a strict posture, but nothing happened.
Relaxed half, I still don't see any movement, and I also remember the creepiness. Mae-chan has bothered to warn us. There's got to be something.
Yes, then the next person.
Well, I'll go.
"Eh, Sakura-chan alone!?" I told you to make a pair, didn't I? No way! Those pale true cherry blossoms!! "
Tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap!
Then, following the light footsteps, the sound of my cheek being slapped echoed.
This woman rushed through using her martial arts to instantly pinch me.
"Hmph!!"
Like me, Sakura-chan's cheeks turned red, revealing a grumpy look like a model.
How can I be so shy when I'm banging you so casually?
I knew it, Aozuma-san. Shall I slap you?
"Hmm, that's fine now, May... I'll definitely let him know later..."
Let my grudges be cleared from my hands. [M] I'll never forget this humiliation, Azure Cherry Blossom!
Well then, the next person, like Sakura-chan, will quickly cross over
Hey, let's go, Ryoko.
Yeah.
"Wait a minute!" If you're going to make a pair with your mistress, you won't be able to leave this peach alone. In other words, I definitely won't give up on my glasses! "
Come on, let's go.
Tendo-kun, who was disgusted by the assertiveness of the delicate peach, began to walk on his side.
"Master, if you want to hold me, at least hold the princess ———— oh, hey, what are you gripping with your glasses and cane!" Don't grizzle! "
The chairman walking next to him was poking Peach's cheek with his cane with a strange face, and he was screaming even more loudly.
Damn, it was just crossing the aisle and why it got so noisy--what a sigh of relief it was.
It's awesome, it's awesome, it's awesome!
A frightening alarm sounds.
At the same time, the light that had illuminated the entire passage in white turned red. More than ever, there was a noticeable anomaly in the eye.
This reaction probably triggered an emergency alert originating from the Central Tower... but at about the same timing as you would expect, the system voice sounded.
This floor will now be completely frozen. Please evacuate the staff immediately. "
"Damn, this whole floor was a trap!?"
Is this what you're going to do without regretting it first?
I only heard a brief announcement, and I immediately suspected such a situation.
Natsukawa-san's traps were so large that he was not confused. An easy-to-understand basilisk trap designed to be the most attentive. And Mae-chan's intuition must have indicated this situation.
Damn, you've hid your own trap so well, even though you're playing birds.
"Everyone, gather up quickly!"
Before I could scream like that, everyone was already on their way across the aisle, along with Tendo-kun and the chairman, the remaining couples on the other side, Himino and Nakagawa-san.
The freezing process starts after 1 hour... 30 minutes... 10 minutes... 5 minutes... 5 seconds
But the floor changes started first.
You're kidding me, it's not been five seconds! I wonder if the countdown timer is working properly, this pimp system!!
"Wow!? What the hell is going on?! The floor is going off!!"
A blurry pale glow emanated from all indoors, and the screams of Hayama-kun, who was upset, resounded.
Yeah, you're right, the floor is beginning to disappear.
Floor freezing does not mean icing, as the chairman did for this aisle. Erase this entire floor, that is, temporarily store it inside the spatial magic.
It is already a well-known fact that ancient magical civilizations can interfere with and expand this three-dimensional space that we live in, and create a new place that should be called a different subspace. Aoi Makoto and Kensaki also mastered the space magic dedicated to storing weapons, which should be said to be a storage system, and Tendo-kun's [Treasure Storage] has an all-purpose subspace storage function that is easier to understand.
And the dungeon itself, this central tower, is also a structure that has spent a lot of time benefiting from spatial magic technology. The tower alone has several floors that are larger than they look.
Conversely, you can narrow the floor area, or if you don't need it, you can store the entire floor in a separate subspace and erase it.
In other words, the only thing that seems to disappear now is that the part has already been stored.
Fortunately, only the pre-set floor structure will be stored in the subspace. As human beings, it doesn't seem to affect us in any way.
So if the floor, the walls, and the ceiling disappear, you don't have to think about what happens to the people left there. We've already been through a solo collapse in the beginning of this fucking dungeon survival.
At the end of the floor, which disappeared into the pale light, I could see the tower downstairs, which was terrifyingly tall.
"---- I'm going to fall!!"
Even if I don't say it, everyone will know if I see this disappearing.
Yeah, there's a mini-game like this that keeps slipping off the floor until the last one stays.
But this isn't a game to decide the winner. It's just a cunning little birdy trap to knock out every last one of them.
“Use the air cushion! Use the air cushion!!"
All I can do now is scream so that if I decide to free fall hundreds of meters downstairs, I don't forget to exercise my means to land safely.
Those who are still here are the members of the battle-scarred team, but of course I and Hime-no, pure magicians such as Hayama-kun and the chairman of the committee are very weak.
I wasn't expecting to be dropped down like this... but I gave everyone the magic items they needed to fall from heights. It's okay, I'm not gonna let you die in a huge pitfall.
Tsk, after all, I'm the first one to fall like this
As the rain creates a puddle of water, the irregularity begins to disappear and expands into a circle. The scope of the annihilation area, which was expanding at a moment's notice, had already cornered my position.
Everyone else is moving to escape the fading floor, still a little sticky, and trying to get as close as possible to each other.
But at my feet, there was no escape anywhere, front, back, left or right, and I just waited for the floor to disappear, which spread without a sound.
Kotaro-kun!
"It's okay, I'll wait with Lem first."
I firmly grasped the magic item like a large marble shining in pale green, which was an "air cushion", and took a step into the void.
Mae-chan still had a worried expression on her face.
"I'm being targeted!"
It was the first time I noticed the call and the way she was pulling out her weapon.
"----Die, Momokawa Kotaro."
The dazzling twinkling of a white blade.
Trapped by the force of gravity, he flew toward me with two shining swords as he began to fall freely ─ Yes, literally, he flew and approached me suddenly,
"Kensaki!?"
Kensaki Tomorrow, with his cold eyes burning with murderous intent, slashed at me.
Behind it grows a pair of white wings. Such an angel is a cliché, but there is no better way to express it than to flap its wings, which are very similar to the little bird play at that time.
Kensaki-san, in anticipation of the fall due to the loss of this floor, I must have been waiting downstairs.
Drawing a sword and "dying" is another straightforward approach. Have you forgotten the existence of my [Pain Return]? Or is it a discard pawn that can be used to play with small birds? Ignoring [pain] and attacking me directly is enough for a cherry blossom.
However, I can't deal with Kensaki with his wings who seems to be able to fly freely just by passing such a bad thing through my brain.
I'll protect you---- Guaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
"Lem!"
Lem, the young girl who was falling together with her hand in hand, waved her hand and walked forward to protect me.
At the same time, he instantly transitioned to the form of a black knight with a large armor helmet, and literally stood in front of Kensaki with himself as his shield.
"It was useless, such a wooden couple can stop me!"
I got flying wings and came.
However, unfortunately, Kensaki only shouted out loud, and the two new swords in his hand also had considerable performance. The white shining blade was carried out at a speed that I could not follow with my own eyes, and the Black Knight Rem with the Great Sword and the Great Shield was instantly chopped.
A stormy slash scatters the sparks and magic light that engrave the pitch-black armor.
Even so, the sturdy Black Knight Rem was able to endure without disappearing, but it bounced in an unbelievable direction with the momentum of being smashed into it.
If it was on the ground, it would have stretched and withstood, but in the air, its body would have been washed away by the impact it had received.
At the same time, the shield of the Black Knight who protected me was stripped off.
All that remains is the body of the poor magician.
"This is the end, Momokawa Kotaro!"
Kensakiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!
A mass of murderous intent is coming down to protect me even more than Kensaki's sharp murderous intent.
Thank you, Rem. You've bought us plenty of time to get help.
”Guuuuuu, fuuuu, Futabaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
A frenzied warrior with a fierce red aura, a cursed blade and a proud sword pulled out, and a meteorite that crashed from above attacked Kensaki.
Well, somehow I still feel sorry for my life. I switched the two swords that were supposed to reach me almost to my own defense.
Mei clashed just after I crossed my swords and put them back together.
In a vast space, the sounds of metal and shock bumped into each other, and the momentum accelerated downward.
The glow of May's crimson aura and the pure white light wrapped around Kensaku's wings. I had no choice but to see the red and white light disappear far downstairs while drawing a double helix that seemed to collide without intersecting.
