Over The Infinite

-1 -

The School of Adventurers is in an extremely special position among educational institutions in labyrinth cities.

Originally, there is no concept of compulsory education anywhere in this world, but labyrinth cities also do not make education compulsory. Affiliation is optional, even if preschool, secondary, higher and university and schools exist in parentheses close to the previous life. Not all people from labyrinth cities often pass by something that feels close to Japan, or vice versa, by outside people who come to labyrinth cities as adventurers.

Adventurer schools are even more unique than that and are not treated as general education. The Childhood Department, which was founded in later years, treats it much like a normal kindergarten school, but the school is only a training institution to train professionals as adventurers, not a place to study.

No questions of age or education. However, the condition that more than a certain amount of academic achievement and the training of adventurers, and then enrollment is possible if there are somewhat higher tuition fees, seems to be a wide open door, but its actually harsh. Well, even if the subject is limited to the degree of high school graduation for which the subject is here, it would be a hard demand inside. At least, it's not an easy gate for adventurers coming from outside to dive.

Exercise skills are also important. It's natural because it's an adventurer's egg, but it's not uncommon for people to possess physical abilities like top athletes at the time of enrollment. Even if it's not avant-garde aspirations, it's normal to have more physical than coarse.

Three years of schooling is also the shortest period for completing assignments in due course. It's not easy to advance, and it's not uncommon to stay in the year. Trial attack and equals, or minotaur destruction, lead up to the graduation exam. Think normally, it would be difficult to attack an array, no matter how much professional education you've given them. It's not simple to compare, but I think it's easy to see the difference when you think about whether Japanese high school students and college students can confront Minotaur because they have training.

In other words, that school is a big deal just to enroll, and if you can graduate, you can be classified as an elite as an adventurer. Leaving aside extreme examples like Dirk and Serafina, the Chros who graduated from kindergarten school and instantly enrolled are like flying classes, and even for students who normally enroll and graduate, they are an elite incomparable to those who were adventurers outside.

That is also true of labyrinth guild clerk Kukriel Enisiera.

Though I can't solo attack ten levels of the infinite corridor, the fact that I graduated from school and was able to row down to my debut is good enough. Even with the look of a glassy kid and unlikely to fight, the minimum conditions as an adventurer are fulfilled, so it's not something you can compare to the average person. If the drunks around here are going to fight and sell by mistake, they're going to get bummed.

"So why don't you join the next in-clan match?

"I don't know what this is about, but I'm acting impotent again..."

After a long foreshadowing in the brain, Kukuru was interviewed by members of the intra-clan rivalry, and the first voice he returned was roughly what he expected. You can take it for granted that you normally think about it and pull someone out who is not active as an adventurer.

However, the minimum conditions required for this event should have been fulfilled, and would be far stronger than the barely ordinary coral at the moment. I was surprised when I heard Yuki's suggestion, but if you ask me, isn't that an ant as an option?

"I think it's okay to feel casual. It's not Yuki's < five trials >, and the penalty for losing seems to be about serving."

It's also hard to say a normal dungeon offense. Only subjects interact with each other. It's an in-house event.

Whether it takes the form of a confrontation or not, the guy who says anything is going to win... there are a lot of them. Us, those are their hotbeds.... at least I won't force a hard offense.

"As a labyrinth city citizen, that's the only big event I can't stop going to the Four Shrines Palace. Mr. Watanabe won't understand..."

I don't know.

Because more events are gobbling up than that.

To me, the Four Shrines Palace is nothing more than an institution that seems important. It is like a restricted area designated by the government.

Even for the Four Gods, there is not much of a sense of God. It is mainly caused by Tiglare, but it will be hard to recognize the person who can talk to face to face even to Elsel as a paranormal being.

"If you're going to be our manager, I think you'll probably keep going. Not only in the Four Shrines Palace, but also in other important places. In the first place, even if you don't participate, you'll be asked to come to the scene."

"That's not a lie, that's not a joke, that's a really big deal."

"Interested in being out of the atmosphere or something?

"... I decided not to ask."

I don't know if I have business going to the next month, but at least I'm likely to go to another world. It's not even a battlefield, so it's possible that a manager will accompany you there. It may be an event that occurs even if we don't belong, given that you accompany us regardless of your clan during the expedition.

"Well, let's just say we leave it there now. If I were you, wouldn't you like to try and get all the full members in the clan?

"Right. I'm an adventurer, too, so I don't know that kind of romance."

"I won't be forced to and it won't taste great to participate, but the risk is enough to take time. If you're interested, you should join us."

If not, will you give any preferential treatment to a team that is short of one?

... some hands on letting Lene join you as Demon II. Unlike Yuki and the team, the risk of finding out is minimal.

"Actually... just an overview of this story, but I heard it from Senior Dilk."

"Really?"

When we talked, I thought you weren't more surprised than I thought, but you know what?

He also has information on all the members, and if you think about it a little, you'll know that it's impossible to get Coral to participate. If so, it is not surprising to reach the possibility that the next voice to be heard is Kukuru.

"That's when,... you know, a lot has been said. Well, mainly about my mindset and where I stand in the future."

He said, "Was it a blast?"

As far as Ladine tells me, Dirk has a strong attachment to the way an adventurer is in his profession. Is there something I think about Kukuru, even though there is some other side to it?

"On a level that doesn't make a lot of noise. I was thrown an honest argument that I couldn't even argue with. In a way, that's one correct answer about how adventurers are, beginning to have doubts after becoming an Alliance employee. Also, it doesn't matter directly, but a little stupidity about Watanabe's despicability... unfortunately, I sympathized with both."

"The latter didn't want me to empathize..."

"No, I know it works, but it's terrible, alle. I know what to say, so I won't deny it."

I had no choice but to take in Serafina. Even considering the negative minutes of dilk, I think it's a plus for the whole clan.

As it is, even if you join the group, you won't take full advantage of the large rookie of expectations. If you ask me, this means that I have established a way to move that rabid dog more than I should. If you feed on Dirk, Serafina will work harder than her powerful powers. It's huge that I got that basement done. In other words, I am not wrong. Yes, I want you to call me Fine Play.... so that has nothing to do with this one.

"That's why I'll take the story myself."

If I was willing to persuade you to be a little serious, I'd unexpectedly get an honest understanding. I had prepared materials for persuasion beforehand, but it seems to have ended in vain.

"Are you sure? Honestly, I couldn't."

"That's okay. I'm not going back to being an adventurer in earnest, but I thought it would be a good opportunity to know my true limitations. So, when will the time be? If Buck has the Four Gods, he can also adjust the guild's work, because he needs to go through some talking beforehand."

"Details have not been set, but the time is at the latest the whole month. The period is scheduled for three days. They can't adjust the time in [the Four Gods' Neighbourhood], so it's real time."

"You have to pay for it."

There is no death penalty or item loss, but the base level does not rise, and the time passes as-is. I don't even need a Monday dungeon challenge. It doesn't even take much advance preparation. They prepare common consumed items over there, as well as ammunition and other expenses. Meals during the period are also held over there. However, team formation must be decided in advance.

"Then the Ments are settled. Any hope for your team from Kukuru? I haven't decided how to organize it yet."

"Please be on a different team from the panda"

It is an instant answer.

"... is that what you're not willing to overcome? In the future, the Clanhouse will have pandas."

There is also a hand in deciding on the off-limits part of residence, but there is no reason to limit Michael, Mikael and Alexander because they are adventurers.

Ladine gave me permission to burn Mikael if I wanted to.

"Give me a moment.... It's not that I'm phobic, but that dumb side is annoying."

"That's a dostrate disgust. He's been killed many times, and I don't know."

"It's also a problem not being able to tell, isn't it? It just seems like the same thing... Oh, one more thing about team formation, I want it off Senior Dilk's team."

"... on all the things you've said?

"It doesn't seem like something over there, but it's going to be giddy for a while after all,"

It would be better than an environment where nothing can be said about it, although it is a less favourable situation as a clan. All the more so if you're a manager who's likely to be involved with everyone.

We have a lot of guys who say things clearly, so you might want to think about caring for the guy who's going to be hoarding.... That kind of guy, was anyone there? Moyer had some signs of it, but that's only the first.... Not so much, but is it about Tyria? He's the type who doesn't really speak from himself.

If you look at it this way, we're just my strong guys. It's not like there's no coordination, but the individual's ac is too strong. You know, some of them bump into each other.

As a challenge for the future, the participating members of the in-clan rivalry were now confirmed.

Twenty-four. Think about it, it's a good number of people. When they told me to set up the clan, I felt like I'd come a long way, considering there was only me, Yuki and Sarjes.

I don't know if I can include Kukuru with the three Sky Dragons, but in addition to this, Coral, Satina and, if possible, Lene, this will be the basic system as a clan in the future. If you think on the premise of moving forward with an infinite corridor strategy, it's probably a good place for a few elites, but you want to take advantage of the lightness of a small number of deceased footwork.

"Even with regard to the establishment of the clan, for now, I want to run with the fastest possible proposal that Kukuru has thought of for me"

"I don't know what to say myself, but it's a pretty lame schedule."

"That's okay. There's no such thing as a shortage of qualifications and procedural issues. Then there's no reason to delay. By the end of the fiscal year, Dirk and Lirica will be joining the intermediate ranks to qualify for promotion to C-rank by breaking through the fifty tiers of the infinite corridor."

It's not that you don't have enough people to belong to, or that you can't earn GP. I guess it's easier than the fastest record I've ever set up.

If so, I want to aim for the fastest in theory. Failure will only delay you a little, but you will be on your own to aim for it.

I could have set up a clan sooner than Tomato.

-2 -

There's just one more thing I'd like to clear up, apart from the concerns of the in-clan rivalry that's gone. It's an investigation into the mysterious girl who threatened to curse me.

Unlike Wang Capital, where a large number of people without citizenship live, residential information in labyrinth cities is well managed. Some people are privileged to have their information covered up, but that's really only part of it. Erica is suspiciously irrelevant, but there should be more registration information than being in a labyrinth city.

At the end of the New Year's holiday, the information room on the fourth floor was also opened due to the return of the Guild Hall to general business. Here, even if you are not an adventurer, you can search by name. If there is no information here, it will be part of the cover-up or a pseudonym.

"Well, what is it..."

Speaking from the results, a person named Erica Edenfelde did not exist in the labyrinth city.

Even if you look it up under the name Edenfelde to try it out, only one registration as an adventurer is for Lirica. If you search for Erica Edenfelde, it will appear as' Maybe: Lirica Edenfelde '. What search engine?

That's not all. Empire, and it is also not found on the register registered in the Kingdom. There is no registration of a family name similar to Edenfelde, nor is there a name Erica in the branch muscle. Which means he's not registered as an aristocrat.

When it comes to that, there seems to be a line called pseudonym, but I wonder if that would be the same. If you're faking your origins, you don't have to call yourself Edenfelde. In the kingdom, for example, there are other people with family names besides nobility, so you can name the right family names, or you can just name them. There is no point in purposefully naming large aristocratic family names with easy feet.

In the process of following that information, I learned that a house called Eisandaria would hit a distant relative muscle in Edenfelde, but this wouldn't matter very much. It's just a trivia to say that Lolo, who is at Cro's party, may be a very distant relative of Lirica. It is also likely that they do not know.

Then, although I only looked up the name Erica and I had a few hits, there was still no such person.

Who the hell is he?

Lirica says, "The Gate of Souls" is the depths of the gateway. He doesn't even know the person in the Edenfelde main house, and it's hard to believe he stumbled upon that. Only Lilica herself and her deceased master, Lilica, are familiar with the details. I don't know when I met him, but he told the masters of Dammus and the Labyrinth Guild, so the information via there seems most likely.

There's one more thing that bothers me. Erica Edenfelde is a magician.

Sure, he said he was a super amazing wizard. If it's my perception, a magician or a wizard, but it doesn't make a big difference, but if you think about the difference between witchcraft and magic that was previously explained to you by Lirica, it's unnatural for you to call yourself a wizard.

For a magician, magic is something that doesn't make sense. In other words, it would be like introducing yourself as someone who uses something that I don't know very well.

... Well, maybe the guy who does introduce himself like that is super awesome in a different way. Don't be afraid.... or maybe you're saying it for you.

I don't even think there's a clear hostility around the fact that the content is Baba's sexy scene in the pawnshop.

No, it's certainly not a pinpoint, heavily damaging curse on me, and even if that's a joke, it works enough to butt in, but it wouldn't be something I hesitate to do when I have to.... or you know about the giant Baba in the pawn shop, which means you live in a labyrinth city. Because of the use of pawnshops, there's a good chance you're an adventurer.

"Oh, no... no way"

Second, I thought of another possibility.

His appearance scene was a reminder of the nameless one. I don't suppose it's the same thing, but what about thinking that's interference from another world?

Closer, not completely different worlds like the worlds of nameless or imperial dragons...... parallel worlds like the one where labyrinth cities exist. An adventurer named Erica Edenfelde exists there, as do Lirica and I. That would be forceful, but it would explain. I don't know the rules of parallel worlds, and I don't know what he wants to do after all, only over the proper imagination, so I haven't made any progress.

In the end, the only thing I found out when I looked into it was that he was unidentified.

... He said next time when he left, so I wonder if I will see him again. To think from words and deeds, that's probably after diving the Gate of Souls.... then I want you to be clear about who you are.

"Is that Watanabe's investigation tomorrow, too?

As I roared forward through the terminal in the materials room, the person I knew from the side spoke to me. I'm wearing a black suit in private clothes, Moya.

... Speaking of which, you had Serpent Dragon information collected for tomorrow's Dungeon Attack. I got the molded material quite a while ago, but I wonder if the investigation itself is still going on.

"No, this is a different case. I'm sorry, I'll take care of it."

The informant before Dungeon Attack is basically Yuki or Moya, and sometimes Ladine is in charge.

At first, we helped, but now three people who are fit to gather information often take the initiative. If Dirk, who belongs to the Intelligence Agency, meets up, he's going to be in charge of these tasks.... In his case, it is possible that he has information without having to collect it.

"It's something someone needs to do, that's all. Besides, I'm not looking into the Serpent Dragon today."

"You're not."

"It's time to think about the 50-layer offense. I thought I'd focus on the eight arms and the information on the crusade-designated species that emerge after the forty-first layer, covering monsters that are in danger of being encountered all the way through."

"Are you a karaki martial artist? He's gonna stink, too."

Eight Arms is the boss of the fiftieth tier, a monster who was also fighting in the video of Asha that I saw one day.

He's literally a karaki doll with eight arms, coming in endlessly versatile attacks. Besides, it's a tough enemy to switch weapons to use depending on the circumstances.

It's an awesome tactic to get a sense of ready-made vision, but it's the same way to fight me and Mr. Dhaka. Same to the point where they switch weapons and work together their skills. I want to say that I can read it in my hand because it's my own business and I often do mock warfare with Mr. Dhadaka, but I don't have a very effective way to deal with troublesome things. Unless you have the technology to make your skills go to waste, like Mr. Night Light, it would be difficult to consciously induce collaborative errors. They say the eight arms act in pieces.

However, it is quite popular as a floor boss because they often drop gear and materials that work after fifty layers. So much so that there are also storied videos on the video site that only edit and connect to a wide variety of destruction scenes. It doesn't help anything.

"Ally, the more you look at it, the more Watanabe looks on it, right? You know, when you corner him, he's going to freak out."

"Don't be with such a good unsure Karakuri doll.... Eight arms anyway, isn't it tough to cover even crusade-designated species? I don't know anyone with a history of encounters."

"You can still grasp the trend to some extent. If you're going to think about things like Wyburn one day, you need to know as much as you can. He's the only one in the world, so it's bound to be the same party as Watanabe."

At the moment, no one can do more than Moyer in the essential < scout > role of dungeon exploration. Perhaps Yuki, Ladine, Dirk and Alexander will acquire skills close to each other, or equip them with features, but they are no match for the main position. Then, naturally, in the first layer of challenge, you will be asked to stammer. There's no reason to take it off because it's also combative.

It is difficult for other members to surpass Moyer's abilities as < scouts > in the future. Possible would be a rookie with a lot of unknown parts. Satina and Gobsarty One seem unsuitable, and I guess there's enough coral to have one chang. It doesn't start without debating first.

"Even so, I'm not calling the Crusade Designated Species."

"It is true that the encounter rate is extremely high. Then you should have a premise to encounter from the beginning...... especially in the first layer to try. Actually, I was wondering if you might even run into him tomorrow at the attack."

"Considering the event, I can't afford a death penalty. I'd rather not come out."

Moyer's right, I also think it's going to come out.

"Why don't we repaint the destruction records of the crusade designated species?"

"You're no match for the real < bounty hunters >."

It will be difficult for us, who are exterminated by one hassle of attack, to beat those who have been pursuing only the crusade designated species for so long. I'd like to get a record update bonus if I can.

"This is Watanabe from Rare Monster Whey, and about a hundred and twelve species are just around the corner"

"Every time we run into each other, it'll take over two years."

"If you get caught up in two years, the real people won't be happy."

I don't care if multiple people come out in one attack. You know how much I struggled with Wyburn and the Oak Champions.

"... well, you'll be fine tomorrow. From previous patterns, there are no major events in a row. Now that we've refrained from intra-clan rivalry, I'm sure we won't encounter it."

"It's natural not to encounter it."

That's the kind of thing you flag when you say that. Picorn.

[Infinite corridor, fortieth floor]

What spreads in front of you is the surface of the water as far as you can see. Even if walls and floors themselves are in dungeons that emit blurred light, they cannot be seen in the water to the bottom in darkness. If you peek in, you're going to be dragged into the darkness.

You can't see the opposite shore if you look far away. Preliminary information seems to have an end, but it's just a wall, so the only ground part where we can put our feet down is the real entrance part. It's inside the cave, so I guess we should call it a supermassive underground lake, but it just looks like the ocean at night. Even with prior information, what you actually see is different. In this way, when I actually see it, I am forced to reduce it to the size of the scale.

Usually, dungeon boss rooms, including infinite corridors, are reserved exclusively, but the whole floor seems to be treated as a boss room here. It's a lot different than before, but it means we're stepping into boss territory.

However, we do not know where Sarpent Dragon, the key boss, is. On the fortieth floor, we have to start by looking for the boss on this wide floor. It's a boss fight, including exploration and capture.

"How about exploration?

"It's a lot wider than I expected from the information I was hearing. Finally, the bottom of the lake is quite interwoven with terrain. Even the giants of the Serpent Dragon seem to have plenty to hide in."

Ladine, who had a small mobile monitor and a dedicated device, replied without looking back. The underwater bugs used for exploration operate automatically, so they don't need to be monitored, but they may also be making some fine adjustments.

Originally, other adventurers have to explore this vast underwater area into the tunnel to discover the boss and enter the fight in their opponent's field of expertise. Although a < cartographer > or a < magician > with exploratory skills, there are limits to their perception. We're supposed to be doing pretty easy with this unruly, creepy probe called Ladine. Remotely operable bugs would be a great item for this situation.

"This time, at least I want to keep the terrain round and bare. The giant and habitual nature of the Serpent Dragon should narrow the necessary points for vigilance."

If you want to wait in one place, you can also take the hand of breaking through with force moves, but the Serpent Dragon moves. It also creates a situation in your favor, assuming against the adventurer. Trouble is, Serpent Dragon doesn't know if he's his own child... but he's going to send a little sea dragon out to probe and capture this position.

If you lose an exploratory battle, you might forgive an ambush, and if you're at a disadvantage, you could escape. If we don't finish in time, we'll be forced back in time. Strong exploration capabilities and rapid action are required here, as well as underwater power to clamp down on the Serpent Dragon.

It seems that Sarpent Dragon's own abilities are suppressed because of the relationship these opponent favorable fields are available, but such things are a threat and a difficulty regardless.

"... we're waiting for the time limit, as planned."

Yuki squeaks as she peeks into the dark waters.

Even with the original plans, I didn't intend to break through the forty layers in this offense. I expected nothing less, but I'm not confident in underwater combat enough to do the bump production on this field. This time, the purpose is to immediately check the floor of this forty layer, investigate the terrain, and then, if possible, fight underwater. And it's a step of waiting for the time to expire and gibberish. I'll hit the real deal if I have to, but I'll hit the stone bridge if I can. In the first place, everyone has overcome it to the extent of going through the submerged floors on the road, but many have not reached the stage of just challenging the boss battle. I can't believe Gaul drowned on his way here.

I would be pissed off if I told you to take a death penalty and let me postpone the in-clan confrontation.

"It's a challenge before the floor is rebuilt after a confrontation."

"What about the members?

"Me and you, Sarjes, Moyer and Chimera are confirmed. And then, if you can make the habitual training for underwater gear, you're a borg. Ladine if you can't."

"Throw away the defense and go fast?... Well, it will, won't it? Tilia still can't seem to do it."

If we're going to challenge the Serpent Dragon in this situation, we have to make it as fast as possible after we've collected the information. Even the Ments who can do that are limited.

At the moment, only Sarjes and Moyer, who were able to fight somewhat from the beginning, reduced their gear to the extreme, Yuki, who responded quickly to underwater gear, and Chimera, who captured parts of the aquatic monster and stormed endlessly. Or in this, the chimera is resistant to the anomaly.

Something like Ladine and Gaul can manage to fight at the next point. Tilia would be a little harsh due to her equipment. At the moment, it's as far as walking underwater.

If you ask Gardo, you'll get one shot out of it, but you better avoid it when you think about the future. That doesn't make sense to remove Mr. Mizuki.

"Ladine, how long will it be before Borg changes his outfit?

"The equipment itself is complete. And then there's the habitual training... Shit, I got in contact with the lightning. That's pretty hard to watch."

There was a change in Ladine's watching mobile monitor so as to block the response. Looks like there's noise running on the image in the distance.

"Explorer worm broken? Attack?"

"No, it's probably Thurpent Dragon lightning. The damage is minor, so there is no obstacle to exploration. It seems to inhibit the behavior of adventurers in one way or another, so it's not as powerful as it sounds."

The torpedo placed in the water is part of Serpent Dragon's body. I think he has a mysterious ecology for a long time, but he's got a hole in his skin and he's gonna eject from it. Because it takes a long time to reactivate, it is unlikely that it will be deployed in large quantities in front of you during a battle, but in this way it will be pre-installed to get in the way of exploration. Even though it is less powerful, it would also be harmful if eaten alive. If you are led into a lightning zone during a battle, it is not a battle place.

The presence of a lightning bolt would also mark the passage of the Serpent Dragon, but I know that too, so I won't split the allowance or pieces gradually. As such, if time passes within the wrapping hands, a large amount of lightning will be placed. The offensive time limit here is the same three days as the layer in front, but I can't afford to spend that time.

I'm using some of the living beings as a lightning bolt, and I wish there was a limit to the amount, but you don't have that record to look into.

"For a long time, it seems that the biggest difficulty on this floor was the capture of the enemy. Even now that the method of attack has been established, the biggest difficulty is that."

By the way, apparently the first person to attack this layer on the surface was < War Arms >. Included among them are lizard old men. Because he's a reptile. The old man is resistant to water, and as far as Mr. Perce is concerned, the water is his field, so it seemed to be a truly private arena.

The same is true in water, but clans made up of many races like < War Arms > have the strength to adapt to a variety of environments. We're not human either. There are many species, but the absolute number is low, so the pattern of combining them is limited.

"... let's call this a man-made sea tactic. Put in all the spare bugs to expose the structure of the floor faster than the time when the lightning will be installed"

"I think that's fine because this time it's for exploration purposes, but can't we let the bugs sense the lightning and avoid it?

"You can sense it with Active Sonar, but not because it's captured by a monster. If this is remotely operated or at least mechanical, I have a hand in silencing it with a jammer. … Since it is not invisible, the location information of the lightning installed in the exploration range shall be collected. I might be able to grasp the trend."

With that said, Ladine takes the bag out of the Item Box and starts adjusting the spare bug.

... What a troublesome floor. If it were an SLG, it would not be challenged again after a single attack. In our case, we have to attack until we all fall out.

"Yuki went to talk to Mr. Topopo, didn't she? You didn't ask me how to handle the lightning?

"I heard about it and I have a way of dealing with it, but it seems faster to let it blow up. If you're not an expert like Mr. Topo, you're gonna be tough."

"The most realistic plan at the moment would be to force a breakthrough by putting in a device for detonation once you capture the target. I'll put a disposable accelerator on the borg, so we should all stick around and go in for the real thing. Don't let them get away with it."

I wonder where Borg is headed. In the meantime, it's going to fly.

"How's it going? It's time to start hunting groceries, okay?

"Wait a little longer. Serpent Dragon has not been captured."

Gaul, who was tenting at the entrance, approached me. Apparently, the installation work is done.

I wish the cottage could have been deployed, but there's less ground area here, so I'd have to use a little smaller tent to secure the bunk. Even so, Gaul alone wouldn't have had a problem because it belongs to one touch. It took a while, didn't it, to put Moyer to sleep?

Exploration is my primary goal in this attack, but I'm not going to end it with that alone. It also has the purpose of gaining real-time experience outside the boss's enemy range. Gaul doesn't plan to take part in his first challenge to the boss, but it doesn't hurt to get used to underwater warfare if you think about the future.

"What about Moya and Chimera?

"Chimera's burning that fish fillet in a bonfire. Moyer's still down. You can let him sleep for a while."

"Well, it was a shocking monster in many ways. You can eat fillets with tuna and chimera."

"I don't really want to eat..."

Whatever the time of food distress, I don't want to eat those creepy ones fillets or anything as hard as I can. I would definitely like to ask Chimera and Mr. Mizuki. Because he was a guy I had never seen before, he would eat it even if it was somewhat unsavory.

"It's not my fault you ran into me or Moya knocked you down."

"No, I didn't say it was Tuna's fault.... I don't think we should run into each other often."

In fact, in front of these forty layers, in the thirty-ninth layer, we encountered the species designated for crusade as flagged by Moyer.... I've encountered it.

You know you're safe with the fact that you're here, but he was a shocking guy in many ways. It was a story character that I couldn't help painting in detail, so let me send you my brain digest.

The thirty-ninth floor of the infinite corridor was a dungeon characterized by a relatively orthodox stone labyrinth and the waterways found throughout it. Some gimmicks are like cages blocking some submerged paths and between them, but they can either look for a dedicated switch or break through with force moves. Yuki's "Iron Slash Flash" is very active.

The search went well. I'm also getting used to fish shaped monsters I encounter underwater, and reptile monsters and fish man shaped monsters that come out all the way to the ground have no problem if I lure them to land and treat them to tunnels.

The guy in question appeared gorgeous at the end of the day. near the end of the map that Ladine explored with worms.

A sudden and shining spotlight. The one who jumped out of the vortex-wrapping waters as they spinned magnificently was clearly not a normal monster. Maybe it's a crusade designated species, but that's not actually clear either. After this, you can go back to the hall and find out, but he's probably a new breed.

He was a super creepy Phantom with human hands and feet growing on a giant carp. It's not even the same as a fishmonger type monster. It's not a question of dimensions like Ella getting bigger or scales growing. The name I learned from Nursing was Fishman. The species classification was < Fish >, but it is clearly a different creature than a fish. I just had to do that by classification, to the point where I suspect it's actually a whole new species.

As we froze to such a creepy look, only Moyer was proud to say, 'Look, isn't that what I said'? Well, it's not the same diagonally upward direction as I imagined, but it's not wrong. I did recover the flag I put up.

If we fought, when we said crusade designated species, the strength was not great. Some steps will fall compared to Oak Champions and Wyburn.

Yuki assaulted for a frightened gap in Ladine's sniping. Recently acquired corrections to Rope and Rope Action, or brilliantly successful capture. It doesn't matter at all, but you associate my name with it, so I just hope you don't remember the action skill of being a rope.

The stunningly tight fishman was literally grated into three pieces with a giant sashimi knife that Moya kept from Mr. Shui. Too bad, but I thought that was it.

But even if it was grated by three pieces, the fishman was not dead yet. It's literally getting up, not at that stage where we were pitching ourselves alive.... remain in three grated sheets.

Hands and feet grow in each of the right, left, and middle bones. I don't know what that means, but the enemy split into three bodies. Are each of you good beings to call fishmen?

Moya was attacked by Moro, agitated by the odd noise of the fishmen in a situation where all the doubt remained and the fact and mystery that the three grates had come up.

How the hell am I supposed to take him down? Wouldn't they get up even if they were fillets? With that anxiety, we decided to withdraw because there was no point in being able to do so with a dungeon attack for such pre-investigation purposes. Or I don't want to deal with them because they're too creepy.

First, Chimera leaves with Ladine with Moyer. Me, Yuki, Gaul, I'll try my best, and then I'll back off. He was a fishman who was further weakened by the division above not being very strong, but he still gets up no matter how much he cuts. This Akan and Gaul released Blizzard Breath and left where they froze it.

But after we jump into the waterway, the fishmen come after us in just a few moments. It's a serious behavior in a fish that comes after you with a crawl of hands and feet. Super creepy.

I responded with the newly acquired Running Water Tasers using the Grated Weird Fish collected from Moyer. A skill in underwater warfare specialization that can be slashed with a spa without resistance even underwater, but it didn't really matter to the increasing number of fishmen even when filled. Rather, it is being transformed into a beautiful sashimi due to its good sharpness.

I saw the chimera coming back before us as we responded and continued to retreat.

[● (^ o ^) ● ]

Damn, what an easy road guide. I even learn to be jealous of the emoticons that show up fine in the water.

We'll follow Chimera's lead and retreat. As the chimera preyed on the fillets as she retreated, she noticed that the eaten area had completely disappeared.

Ultimately, the waiting ladine broiled it in a flamethrower and the shocking ending was that the chimera would prey one after the other where it had been baked fish.

Only bones I tore apart with blunt weapons, but they were powerful enemies in many ways. They are enemies of the kind who do not want to be reunited very much. By the way, they weren't very tasty with the preyed chimeras. It passed on even if only emoticons could be expressed.

Well, even if it's a crusade designated species, it's a one-shot shop with just the impact. He won't come out next time because he defeated him properly, and he'll be destined to be forgotten soon. Because it was carp, it may be decorated on May 5th, but it is the opponent to that extent.

"... you were super creepy"

"I think I'm dreaming"

In a way, it was more than a glass-panda impact experience.

Therefore, the events of the thirty-ninth layer were more impressive than the main fortieth layer exploration. It was this Dungeon Attack, but it ended without any further mention.

Keep exploring and grasp the floor structure. The results would be excellent, for example, as the supplementary Sarpent Dragon dived underwater for practical training in anticipation of a time when he was not nearby, and the underwater warfare equipment prototyped by Ladine could also be utilized generally without problems.

Small lights that automatically track users underwater. Ultra-compact oxygen cylinders, underwater dark vision goggles, and mobile water jets to attach to hips and arms. Waterproof clothing and protective equipment. Goggles and lights are in danger of crushing your eyes when used in combination, but if used well, it would be underwater warfare but it can be fought quite advantageously. Were these gear suited for Yuki to slip through and move around endlessly in battle on the ground and on a non-inferior level? The swimming at heart is finally at the per serving level, but it will be enough.

So far, the maximum power is Chimera. Taking in the sites of aquatic monsters, the chimera moves freely underwater even without equipment. The appearance that has become more grotesque is likely to be summoned in some cult ritual, but fishmen are more creepy to those of us who are used to seeing them.

I went back to the hall and reported it and Kukuru gave me a subtle look, but I can already say this is routine.

And then, after all, the fishman was a new species of crusade-designated species. I also got a discovery bonus, so it turns out to be all hail.

-4-

The day changed and the meeting room upstairs in the Guild Hall. It is an in-clan rivalry meeting.

"Well, then I'd like to organize a team member"

Here are four leaders of each team in the in-clan rivalry. It's just me, Yuki, Ladine and Dirk. I guess I should really be around Kukuru as a clerk, but this time I am absent to make it fair because I am a participating member.

The provided whiteboard has a line of Yuki's written team leader's names. I guess it will be in the form of adding a decided member here. For convenience, I'm Team A, Yuki is Team B, Ladine is Team C, and Dirk is Team D. There's no reason why it's D because it's Dirk's acronym or because I'm a special assault bastard.

"Let's start with the basic rules. Ask me questions every time."

Be the first to explain the rules of intra-clan rivalry decided by today. That said, it has been largely communicated, so it is about the extent to which a fine supplement can be entered.

The venue is [Nanbu Field of the Four Gods], with a dungeon prepared by the Four Gods for this occasion.

Twenty-four will be a split offense into four teams of a six-man party, in which they will act differently. I never see him inside, just like a regular dungeon, but the structure is not random, but fixed, and it seems to be all the same.

Four gods participate in the party as observers. They won't take part in the offense, but they'll take questions, etc. It is not decided at this time who will be the observer for which team.

Six million yen will be sent to the first-place team as a prize. Million yen per person for mountain splitting. This is paid for by Pocket Money by the Four Gods, who became the second-biggest person in charge. I'm allergic to think of it as God's reward, but it would be a pretty large amount of extraordinary income. Conversely, the lowest team seems to be waiting for a week of service with the four gods in charge. The Four Gods are just as good.

The duration of the event is three days. [Nanbu Field of the Four Gods] is three days in real time because time adjustment does not work.

Ranking is a grading method. Grading is done every day and ranked by total score. Grading methods range from destroying monsters, breaking map rates, destroying traps, and obtaining special items, all of which have not been revealed. It seems that the points added will be communicated in conjunction with the scores, so I guess it means trying everything out.

Bullets, etc. that need to be aligned with the standard are allowed as a special case, but consumed items are basically not allowed to be brought in. The basic ones are prepared by the Four Divine Side and can be replenished as appropriate within, but scores are deducted for each replenishment. I mean, I can't waste it because it's a reduction. However, they have a separate minimal item payment for each day.

A base is available inside, where you can stay, eat and drink, refill consumed items, etc. It is the same procedure as putting up a cottage in front of a transfer gate for a dungeon.

The further away you are from this base, the more dungeon attack difficulty you will have, such as the level of monsters and the number of traps. Near the base, it seems to be an enemy of about ten levels in the infinite corridor, so even members of the low-level zone will be able to hunt.

A little special is the individually set attack time, which is set at eight hours for one person to try a day. They're forcibly forwarded to base after this time.

There are no death penalties, but if he dies, he will also go to the base. However, in this case, the remaining time of the day disappears and is greatly reduced.

There will also be transferable items available at the base at any time, so you don't have to worry about how to return either way. However, when this is used, it is also treated as a retire. You will lose the rest of the day.

"Can you tell me the specific advantages beforehand?

"Private. In fact, the elements added will be recorded and viewable at the base, so look at them and determine their efficiency. At the end of the day, they can also see details of other teams"

"So even if we find a way to add something special, we can keep it a secret until the next day."

Yuki is right, it takes up to less than a day for the details of the addition to be passed on to another team. Depending on its content, it will be targeted the next day, so there will also be a strategy of putting together actions that are perceived as suspicious on the last day.

"The fact that individuals have time limits naturally means that other behaviors are ants, right? You know, deflecting time between me and Sella."

"It's Ali. Offset your attack time is optional, and you can finish the day without leaving the extreme story or base."

I know that when I die, it's one hand not to leave the base as a safety precaution. Although it would be more pointless than having an area where you can hunt without any problems even in lower ranks.

Somehow, but Dirk feels like he's going to let Serafina act alone.

"Can you carry your activity time over to the next day?

"None. If it cannot be digested for eight hours, it will also be reset the next day. Then, even during the attack, when the day switches, it is transferred to the base, so it cannot be caged for sixteen consecutive hours."

"What about transferring that time to another member?

"None of that either. Just think of it as a right assigned to each member."

"Hmm. So I guess it's out to go back to base with self-actionable items"

"I'm listening to you. Bugs you use, or something self-actionable like a subpoena, will return to base with you when the owner returns. No transfer of ownership of items inside. He told me to file a pre-declaration."

I heard it beforehand because Ladine is going to do it. In other words, as long as it is subject to prior scrutiny, it is also allowed for normal use. By the way, they can also bring in bicycles and other rides. I'm not going to attack the dungeon on my bike.

"Well, if you don't have any additional questions, I'd like to be a member"

I'll be a little while, but it doesn't look like I have any additional questions.

"What shall we do about the method of election? I'm the only one with extremely low levels. Is there any remedy?

"Do we decide one person at a time in turn? If you want a remedy, dilk's the best you can do."

"Thanks for that. That's what I'm gonna say."

When it comes to me and Yuki and Ladine, the levels are side-by-side. As a result, the second was me, the third was Ladine and the last was Yuki.

However, this raises a protest that Yuki is unfair, so every frame nomination goes in reverse order except Dirk. Dirk, me, Ladine, Yuki in order at first. Then Dirk, Yuki, Ladine, in my order. Ladine is third every time, but there won't be a problem because she didn't complain from herself. Though the level difference is intense, I also felt the dilk was too advantageous, but they don't disagree with this one either. Maybe it's because we're just talking about a so-called festival event, or even its election as a member.

"Then the second frame comes first after the team leader. Xuanlong asked me to split the team between the three Dragons, so let's decide from there."

"There's not enough one for the three of us, but what are we going to do with the last team? If you give up, you decide otherwise."

"Still, the same different world group, so let's get Berenvar in here. Maybe they're all strong, but they're bracketed."

In other words, the second frame will be a selection ceremony from four people: Sky Dragon, Xuanlong, Silver Dragon and Berenvar.

What I can see about the power relationship in this is that the sky dragon is the strongest of the three dragons and can overwhelm Yuki and Mizuki's tag. I'm not sure what the situation is, but Xuanlong has completed the sarges. Silver Dragon is unfamiliar with the human body of what it is capable of, and has not exhausted its potential. Although Berenvar can't use some of the skills he showed when he fought me, he is a powerful solo attacker of infinite corridor depths in a vegan state. Silver Dragon, Xuanlong is hard to judge, but the other two are definitely stepping advanced with just the information we have found at the moment.

"Then let's nominate Mr. Berenvar for my team at the top. I'm used to human combat."

Belenvar's name was added under Dirk, D-Team on the Whiteboard.

Then there's Sky Dragon under me on Team A, Silver Dragon under Yuki on Team B, and Xuanlong under Ladine on Team C. Well, whoever you choose here won't make a big difference. There will be differences in individual strengths, but there is no more significance than the fact that all teams have been joined by forces unfamiliar with team play than is not a battle determined solely by simple strength. Everyone has insufficient information, so it's also difficult to determine who they will engage if combined with.

"So here's the next frame, and I want to disperse the panda, too, okay?

"Nothing good, but is it also for some reason?

"It's not that strong of a reason, because Kukuru's terms of participation are talking about a panda and a different team, so those four...... if you split them between one and three, you won't harden them"

Questionnaires such as the conditions desired in advance are also collected from participating members other than Kukuru.

There's no difference between teams, but it's the part that leads to motivation. I don't think everything can be a convincing team structure, but at any rate, there will be some who want to include the members they want. The survey results have been distributed to the four people here for reference.

By the way, it was Sky Dragon, Xuanlong and Lotte who clearly mentioned my team as their number one hope. Yuki's place is Moya and Mizuki. Ladine's place is Bogue and Chimera, and then Kukuru. Serafina and Lirica were seen quite apart at Dirk's.

No specific team hopes have been raised by other members, but Gobsartiwan is a team other than Lotte and another team, Silver Dragon and Berenvar is a team other than me, Kukuru is a team other than Panda and Dilk, and Michael is a team without Mikael. Moyer and Lotte have raised hopes of a team without sarges. Don't look clear about the positive reasons you want to work with someone you don't normally have a relationship with and your desire not to work with someone you have a relationship problem with.

Therefore, there seems to be no particular objection, so I decided to set the panda frame.

Dirk was Michael, Yuki was Mikael, and then Ladine thought he would nominate Alexander...

"Then the manager will get us"

And, Ladine has nominated Kukuru. Pandas are better up there if you think militarily, but maybe Ladine knows how to use Kukuru.

Finally, we add Alexander to my team, and then we get a free nomination. The remaining three frames will be nominated from among the twelve. The order of nomination is again the same.

... Well, here's the problem.

Sky Dragon, Alexander and up to this point we can call ourselves the best of what I assumed, but from here on out we really need to make a trade-off choice.

In this case, it will be those who will have to make up for the missing parts that will have to be secured as a matter of priority. For example, I have direct combat skills but no support skills, and conversely, a pure rear guard like Dilk really needs an avant-garde, and the conditions vary from party to party. Dungeon offense can get in the way if you don't shape yourself as a party, and this event is hard to score. Earning points for single-point specialization by prioritizing either monster crusades, map exploration, or item collection is a difficult policy to take at this time because I don't know how to allocate points, and if you consider that the strength difference between each party won't be that great, crushing configuration is desirable.

With the first three dragons and Berenvar dispersed, every team is able to secure a minimum of battle power. When that happens, I just want to secure the support personnel as a matter of priority, but here's one problem. Of the twelve Freedom Frames, the prominence of Gardo's level really catches my eye. It's natural because we were originally fighting in a quasi-first-tier clan, but it's tough to take this power elsewhere. It would not only have simple combat power, but also a lot of experience.

The next highest priority is Mizuki, who belongs to the same higher-level band than our average, but in her case not only the level, but also her ability to support it. Being able to perform rear guard fire, aid and recovery by yourself is a big advantage.

And then we just want to make sure that Moya gets there as a priority. Alexander possesses a number of skills for roles such as untracking, but is just inferior to his position. You can probably think of these three as all of them coming after you. In the next point, would Tilia be able to combine the tank with recovery?

Three people would be the hardest to handle: Borg, Chimera and Serafina. The former two are Ladine and Serafina work with Dilk to maximize effectiveness, but there is also a way to aim for weakening by daring the team to split up. However, this is also the blade of the blades in the sense that the maximum effect cannot be desired. Once we've nominated Serafina, it seems obstructive and obstructive to the offense. Absolutely grumpy.

And the nomination for the fourth frame. It was Serafina as expected in a way that Dirk nominated. Although his strength is still difficult to measure, he thought it was more important than nominating Mr. Gardo or Mr. Mizuki.

I'm next, but I nominated Gardo as a result of my troubles. Our team doesn't have a high priority for tanks because I can do quasi-tanks, but that high level is attractive. There may be occasions where we can take advantage of that supergiant.

This was followed by Ladine nominating Chimera and Yuki Mizuki, and the fourth frame nomination was completed. The rest are two for each team.

Here, a current runs on my back.

... That sucks.

"The fifth... in this, is Mr. Gaul?"

My next nomination is for alternating non-Dirk nominations. Next thing you know, I'll be second, but at the end of the day, it's close to a digestive match. The balance is given that order and the rest of the ments......

Then I'll nominate Moyer.

"We'll do Tilia for you."

Whatever Gaul is, it hurts that Moya and Tilia disappeared. There's nothing wrong with the rest of the Ments, but they haven't made up for what we're missing.

When I look at Yuki, you see I'm in a hurry. I'm gnawing. He also saw the final shape of each team.

"Yes, in Sargess."

The fifth frame was filled.

Now the rest are four: Borg, Lirica, Lotte and Gobsartiwan. It will be a configuration that lacks exploration, recovery and assistance, no matter who you secure. It's usually a mess only this time when overall strength is tested anyway. What are you doing, me? I'm not blinding you to Gardo's high level. Whatever you think, it's Moya that's essential to us.

"Let's end with Mr. Lilica, who I'm most used to."

... what to do. Borg if you think only of strength, but it could cause poor maintenance in a period of three days. There will be limitations even if it can be self-maintained. So you bet on the unknown potential that the ultra-life Gobsarty One has? No, then to Lotte who has some grasp even though he's level down......

"Tuna?"

"... make it lotte"

"Well, we're borgs, then"

"Is it Gobsarty One at the end? I don't know yet, but I'm gonna have to get used to it inside."

Thus, the members of the in-clan rivalry were decided. Here's the list of members on the whiteboard:

Team A: Watanabe Tsunami, Sky Dragon, Alexander, Gardel Garden, Sarjes, Liezelotte

Team B: Yuki, Silver Dragon, Mikael, Mizuki, Moya, Gobsartiwan

Team C: Ladine, Xuanlong, Kukriere, Chimera, Tiriatiel, Borg

Team D: Dirk, Berenvar, Michael, Serafina, Gaul, Lirica.

"That's settled," he said. I guess it's generally close to ideal configuration. Me and Moyer are going to be able to do a lot. Looks like Silver Dragon can do something similar. "

"We don't have a problem either. If we can secure Borg and Chimera, we can handle most situations."

"I knew you were scared of Dr. Ladine. Depending on how you grade it, I don't feel like catching up at the speed of map exploration"

"... then that's settled. Set up a meeting place for each team once before the event."

Honestly, I want to demand a redo. I want to, but I don't think it's going to go right through. It's not ugly. It is not a good thing for a clan master to do it. If there's a protest from the other three, we might be able to take a ride and start over, but we're all unhappy. Damn.

Even this team never thinks it's weak. Instead, the individual potential would be high members. If this is simply about attacking the dungeon and destroying the boss, I'm confident I'll try anything. But this is a team match. It does not mean that we should eventually complete the offense, but we will need the competitiveness to compete for grading.

While the rest of the team looks balanced, only our configuration is distorted. Regardless of the individual, I don't feel like I'm winning with my overall strength.

In other words, if you look at team division in this way, you know that the team leader should be most alert to what you can't do. All three of them are very versatile and possess abilities that are unlikely to depend on other member configurations.

If you want to consider map exploration and anti-trap measures as well as combat, Ladine and Dirk are good places to go out of standard. I have a good understanding of Ladine's irregularities in operating various machines, and it is obvious that Dirk has concealed a large number of trump cards in order to have a sufficiently irregular anti-foe ability just to grasp them.

Yuki is still in the commonsense category, but there is a fear that he will not know what will come of this condition. Tagged with Moyer at last, it will unleash mobility that cannot be ignored. Perhaps even with Silver Dragon.

Looking over, you started simulating to victory on a determined team, and all three clearly have different eye colors.

Yuki naturally hates to lose both Ladine and Dirk for sure. You'll see. Besides, Dirk wouldn't hesitate to act if he had the means to put me at the bottom.

I felt like I was being ridiculed when my eyes met.... No, I'm probably paranoid.

… This needs to be addressed as soon as possible.
