Mob, if I were a high school student, could I be an adventurer, too, Leah?
Episode 16: Selling it is outrageous! ②
"Uh, I'm tired already -!
Finishing a dozen fights, Imp screams. It was also a proxy for everyone's inner self.
"Yes, how long the hell will it last?"
Yuki replied to the words that Lianhua threw up with a rough breath.
"Come on, until you defeat the Lord."
This one's breathing rough too. Instead, the consumption of health appeared to be greater than that of Lianhua.
I'm exhausted, too. My legs are cracked too.
The battle in the dungeon had shattered face-to-face health that couldn't fly through the universe like we did.
"... now, how many river children are you?
I ask Eliza, who is not disturbed at all. All this time, I envy her for eating enemies and being able to recover... no, I didn't envy you very much.
"Jesus, master. Forty-five."
"Right..."
To Eliza's answer, he sighed in the way the imp pooped.
"Ugh, I really don't have any kiri. Hey, Master, let's go home now. A little more magic, too."
"What are you talking about, we're one step away when we get here. Let's try harder."
"But you're still twitchy and shredded and you lose, right?
"No, the number of river children is almost exhausted. It's time for the enemy's best friend to come out."
Three other people besides Eliza looked surprised at my words.
"How do you know that? Could... you have figured out who the enemy is?
"Oh, the enemy's identity is eighty-nine, a water tiger"
Water Tiger, a monster of the same D-rank monster but considered to be the upper race of river children.
The reason for this is that it has the appearance of turning the river child around.
And above all in its special ability to call up to 48 river children.
Because of this unruly ability, it is the strongest class D card, traded for 10 million yen, the highest D-rank, even though it is not a girls card.
That said, just as the original ability has never been this outrageous.
The river child being called is like a phantom and disappears in roughly one battle time. Combat also drops more than the original river boy, and if you use up 48 stockpiles, you can't use them that day anymore.
Perhaps the water tiger here is enhanced by the labyrinth in its ability to invoke river children.
That was the tone of communication with D-rank monsters springing up one after the other.
"Heh, that means. After that, if we take down a few river kids, we'll smash the shit out of him."
"That's a cheerful story."
Lianhua and Yuki smile, and Imp sends me a look of respect.
"Master is Knowledge...... Cool"
"Hehe."
I laughed deeply and softly hid my smartphone.
Sorry, I just checked on the app.
"Master, if you make a rumor, it looks like your best balls have come with numbness cut off."
"Heh, I thought you were gonna bring your family to the end."
When I said that, Lianhua said with a mockery.
"That's right. If I don't have any more men, I'll have to fight alone. There's no way a guy with this little tactic has that kind of guts."
"I see."
Did you hear our conversation like that?
Water tigers and river children emerged from the back of the aisle with roars like carnivores.
While the river children were of adult masculine stature, the water tiger had more than two metres of stature and bodybuilder-like forged muscles.
The moment I see the enemy, Imp and Lianhua scream at the same time.
"Weakness!"
The skill of friendship collaboration allows the magic of enlarged and enhanced debilitation to sweep across the enemy.
Keep going and do it again. Now against the water tiger alone.
"All right, we're all through! He gave me something particularly powerful for that big fat ass."
"Well done!
That said, it consumes the same amount of health. Does it take a couple of minutes for the drain to be just as good?
The enemy, too, seems to have understood that the passage of time will be to their disadvantage, coming at once up in gear and attacking them.
Two river children headed this way through the sides of Eliza and Yuki, blocked from both sides to intercept which one. A gaze from underwater shoots me through.
- You're after me!
Eliza is dealing with the water tiger, Yuki is dealing with river boy A. He can't reach this way.
It retreats behind scratches the zab and water, but it's too slow compared to those who swim freely underwater.
The feeling of legs cutting off the sky. I can't support my weight with my tired legs. I wear buttocks.
The deadly gap - the river children who accelerated to squeeze their forces rapidly approached us - ceased.
One beat late, blue blood smoke starts drifting underwater.
I laugh niggly.
I got caught up in a wire trap that the idiots had put on in advance.
There, Lianhua and his collaborative state of abnormal magic strikes. The magic of paralysis. One by one, they end the river children who have stiffened their bodies and become physically immobile.
Now, for starters, two.
I didn't fight as many as 45 river children in a row against Dada. There was already some established know-how among us to exterminate river children.
The river children are so confident in the manoeuvres in this field of water that when they hit me with more than one, they're going for a direct attack on me.
At first that ambush eaten on the face is also more of a summer bug flying and in the fire if you know it's coming. Thanks to this, I was perfectly good at pretending to retreat like nothing else.
On the other hand, the enemy still doesn't have any information on this one. It was worth it to keep killing all the enemies that struck.
Well, only the water tiger and river children are the rest. Is Eliza... struggling?
In her lower D-rank and predominantly enhanced D-rank top water tiger, the latter just had minutes. Still, only my head is eating away with shelter and desperation.
but Yuki, on the other hand, had stunningly sealed off the river boy. Little by little, the river boy, who has lost his glory in his movements over time. There, Lianhua's light bullet was added, and the last river boy also fell off.
The only thing left is the Lord.
But I'm not in a hurry here. Time is on our side.
With Yuki's addition, Eliza's struggle with the water tiger settles into an adhesive state. There, Lianhua and the others hang paralytic state abnormal magic.
I also help that the Lord's correction and paralysis is the heavier of state anomaly magic, which is hard to come by.
but run on top of each other twice, three times without rushing. And the fourth time. Finally, the paralysis passed.
A water tiger that stiffens your body. We'll slap them all there. So, the battle is over.
The water disappears as the tide draws.
After that, the demonic stone dropped by the water tiger and the disappointing box were left behind.
"Oh, it's over."
Everyone's sighing voice overlapped.
What is this, I'm fucking tired! This is the E-rank Labyrinth? Ha!? Suddenly you're getting too difficult!
That's more than half of the newcomers in the E rank.
The only thing I can say is that this labyrinth is definitely one of the hardest people in the e-ranks.
The D-rank top water tiger comes out with enhanced family summoning abilities and so on... With the average one-star adventurer dominated by a single D-rank card, trespassing is definitely not possible.
If I made a mistake, it wouldn't be weird to normally lose a card.
Nothing, I'm not saying that the Alliance is deliberately choosing a labyrinth with that kind of Lord out.
The standard type of labyrinth in this hand is because the monsters that come out are completely random because they have no attributes. That's the same thing with the Lord.
But that's when the nasty water tiger comes out... am I unlucky after all?
The water tiger didn't drop his card either!
No, well, it's normal not to fall because the D-rank card drop rate is 1%.
Still, when you struggle with this much, it's about humanity that you want something in return.
Oh, yeah, in return...
"I forgot. I have to open the box."
As I lifted up my heavy hips and headed to the disappointment box, the cards that were all over me dressed in thoughts also gathered.
No matter how tired you are, only at this moment will you forget tiredness.
"All right, I'll open it."
Yes, open the box with a single voice. There is no trap in the box of trespassing rewards, so I could safely open it.
What was inside was a test tube with demon stones and... liquid.
Hey, I've seen this flow before.
Besides, this has some blue-white glow and a resistant shade to put it in my mouth for a bit. I have a feeling that if I drink it, I will be exposed?
Could this be a hassle...
Yes, when I was depressed inside, there was a fluttering shadow reaching into the bottle.
"... Lianhua?
Lotus Hua returns to me in a hazy way.
"What's up? Something went wrong."
"Oh, oh... no, I'm worried about this sexually."
With that said, her eyes were tight to the potion.
There is nothing unusual about watching other faces at once. I look at Lianhua with a strange face.
"Maybe you know what this is?
Somehow when asked, Lianhua answered her lack of confidence.
"... maybe, Amrita, I think"
"Amrita!?
Amrita is an immortal medicine that appears in Indian mythology.
Regardless, this does not have the effect of immortality, unlike the Amrita of the story, but it had the healing power to heal all, even from the efficacy of rejuvenation and the dying state.
The power of healing alone can be seen as the finest potion, but it was the ability to rejuvenate that drove people crazy.
One year old per bottle. That's Amrita's rejuvenating effect. Just a year old, just a year old. It is well worth it for those in power to pursue.
Whatever, because if you drink one a year, you can live forever.
Therefore, Amrita is exchanged at a foolish price.
The guild also said that it would be a big deal to buy one for 100 million yen.
That's all for the purchase price. I can't imagine how much it's traded for when it actually turns to the market......
They don't even get it if they have gold, and a direct deal would buy them out for many times that value.
… but if the right person has the power to make you pay properly.
But I got something outrageous.
No, I guess this hasn't been decided as a real Amrita yet, but what a mysterious shade this way. It's as if the star Earth had been turned into a liquid.
What am I going to do? Should I sell it right away? That way you're a billionaire at once. Strengthen your cards once and for all.
Or do you want to keep it? We're having an adventure that we don't even know when we're going to die, and there's absolutely nothing to keep in case. It would be nice to call it a amulet for when something happens to my family.
No, but if I can get rid of Amrita, kill her, but they're coming out to take her away... I knew I should have sold it......
With that in mind, I realized that Lianhua was staring at me.
No, it's Amrita, not me watching.
So finally, the question arose as to why Lianhua was so obsessed with Amrita and found this to be Amrita.
"Hey Lianhua... why did you think this was Amrita?
"Huh? No, I don't know why, but the minute I saw this, I got an amrita on my head."
"Hmm..."
Lianhua...... no, do sitting children and amrita have anything to do with this? No, I've never heard such anecdotes.
You might solve the mystery by giving Lianhua a drink of Amrita first, but I'm just not going to shake 100 million on a stick for that.
but I'm curious. It bothers me a lot.
I figured I'd keep this. I really don't know if it's Amrita, and if it was, suddenly hundreds of millions of dollars would go in...... kinda scary.
You can always sell it, and until then, we'll keep it in a sturdy case.
When I made that decision, I left the labyrinth behind.
