Feeling the blast rocking the labyrinth far down, Weishardt was running up a hierarchical staircase through the labyrinth.
The 56 tiers of red dragons have not yet been revived, and the 55 or 54 tiers that follow are hierarchies in which no demons exist other than the 'Black Devil', the 'Pillar Floating in the Sea'. Weishardt finally ran up to 53 levels and was able to observe with that eye the situation in which demons were moving to different levels.
(……… Are you eating?
The basilisk, which had left the 52nd tier, the residence, and advanced to the 51st tier, had been attacked by beast demons nesting on the 51st tier and devoured as if demons living in the Devil's Forest were eating.
Labyrinth demons eat people. But I've never heard of demons eating each other or starving to death. It was thought to be because it maintains its flesh by magic filled with labyrinth, but does that mean that if the species changes, it can be the object of predation?
"Either way, this doesn't look like we're going for the ground. If this... We have to hurry to the ground now!
Weishardt ran up to the fifty tiers, returning at once to the two tiers in the transfer formation.
"I don't even think we can activate the transfer formation on the demon, just keep an eye out! As soon as the strange metastasis is confirmed, destroy it!
If you think about Leonhardt and the rest of them on their way home, I'd like to leave this transition team behind. But I can't see the danger of a powerful demon suddenly appearing on two levels near 50.
"Lock down the entrance and exit on the two levels leading to the underground water supply! Don't let demons break in from the basement! Unit 5 is on 10 levels, unit 6 is on defense at the entrance to the labyrinth! The Adventurer will return to earth as soon as he finds it. Mallow leads half of the scouts to investigate and report on the situation above the 10 levels. The rest of you, call everywhere! Emergency call!
"Yes!"
Soldiers immediately moving into action under the direction of Weishardt.
The demons who moved through the hierarchy will have to get in shape just moments before they eat the shallow demons.
Things fight for a moment.
We can't afford to cause another tragedy in the Devil's Forest Flood (Stampede) 200 years ago.
The first labyrinth demon to appear on earth was said to have been a few goblins.
If you are an adventurer, you are an ugly, but easy demon to defeat on a young day.
The color of skin that can't be roughly produced by a person named green and brown, and the appearance of a small body like a child, but close to a walker with two legs, makes those who choose a way of life, an adventurer who continues to slaughter relative to the demon, feel a sense of readiness.
Because many will not feel their own end in that figure overthrown.
Such demons give even a certain depth of familiarity, but the first time they crawled out of the labyrinth, they looked different.
My skin is darker than normal goblins, my eyes are running blood, my mouth is wet with blood tide, my blood-mixed saliva is drooling and dirty all the way to my chest. On his hands is a sword of cheap things, whether it was picked up in the labyrinth or taken from a pathetic victim, and his fullness is creeping with blood and fat.
Demons that exhibit these anomalies also exist in the Devil's Forest.
For example, Black Dead Wolves, Wolves, etc. were once turned in by Black Iron Transport.
Eating people, crazy about magic, demons eating each other up to more vicious individuals. Although the transformation of even eating each other is not approximately that of a decent organism, it may be said that it is a desirable evolution for what originally arose with more soiled magic solidified.
The goblins, defeated by soldiers on watch who were there, were far more powerful than the same individuals, saying that even if they were defeated in the labyrinth, the corpse would never have disappeared.
"Did you suffer from all the flesh?"
Having received this report in the Adventurer's Guild conference room, Weishardt came to think of the reason he witnessed demons eating with each other.
"Are we eating each other to get the flesh? So, what's the status of the demons in the labyrinth?
The deeper the hierarchy, the richer the magic of the Lord of the Labyrinth. Of the demons of the labyrinth that arise from the precipitation of magic, especially those that are not flesh-received, they cannot exist without constant magic. So in order to replenish the magic and receive meat, demons eat each other.
If demons are eating each other, they will evolve into more powerful demons, but the number of individuals will decrease. If demons in the labyrinth are not overflowing like avalanches, it may be possible to contain them and buy time.
"Ha. According to a report from the fifth unit defending the 10 tiers, the number of demons has doubled in the shallow hierarchy, mixing about 10% of demons on the rank inside. You think that individual is eating the demons around him and moving towards the ground. The progression of the demons after the 10th tier is being stopped by the 5th Squad, but it's gaining a little strength!
A new demon occurs one after the other, moving towards the earth. That also seems like a desperate situation. However, it was only in that report that we found slight hope in Weishardt.
It has not yet been a minute since we set up our headquarters in the Adventurer Guild closest to the Labyrinth.
From now on, it will be the real deal.
"So, Deputy General, how do we intercept?
Hargey, guild master of the Adventurer Alliance, asks. The Labyrinth Crusaders are not the only ones gathered here. From the Merchant Guild, Guildmaster and Elmera, as well as highly combative department heads, are convened, and the city defense forces responsible for protecting labyrinth cities are naturally present. I understand the Colonel and Captain Kite are in attendance, but isn't the Teruter advisor superfluous?
Terutel may have made it to the scene to show off his long career in the city defense because he is watching the situation with a kirili and extreme seriousness, rather than the usual exciting face even in front of the thankful "Thunder Emperor Elsie".
"The gates on the northeast side of the labyrinth are closed, and entry and exit are on the southwest side. Southwest Daimon, West Gate and South Gate in the Labyrinth City are closed. Urban Guards will continue to guard the barrier, while calling for evacuation to the undefeated residents. As trained, evacuation uses mountain streets from Northeast Daimon."
The perimeter of the labyrinth is strewn with walls that use the walls that once surrounded the royal castle of Endalgia. It's for stopping weirs in case demons overflow from the labyrinth. In the last 200 years, no demons have emerged from the labyrinth, and this wall was only meant to give peace of mind to the people living in the labyrinth city, but it will serve as this final line of defense thanks to the fact that it was not neglected to repair it.
There are two entrances and exits on the northeast and southwest sides, and the northeast side, which is full of residents, is closed. If you leave the labyrinth city and continue to the northeast side, you will also have the purpose of buying time to evacuate because you can reach Rock Wheel, the autonomy of the Dwarves through mountain streets.
There is also a path through the Demon Forest using an exorcism potion, but it is also possible that Demons of the Demon Forest will be activated in conjunction with the Labyrinth. It would be safer to use mountain streets that are known as evacuation routes when things happen.
"The Adventurer's Guild organizes the Adventurers to crusade demons in the Labyrinth, putting up defensive lines on the 10, 20, and 30 levels and destroying them as much as possible. I would ask the merchant guild to provide reinforcements and supplies, and transport them. Lord Royce, ask the Agwinas to release the potion. All costs will be borne by the Schusenwald Border House"
"I meant it better than that, but how long are you going to fight (...)?
Hargey asks Weishardt as the summariser of the adventurers and guild master.
Is the battle we command ourselves to go to buy time to save the lives of our inhabitants, or is it a battle to abandon them as pawns until they die so that the damage does not reach the Imperial Capital?
An adventurer is much more free than a soldier. There is no guarantee instead of less obligation. It is not possible, of course, to mobilise on compulsory request those who belong to the guild, since they also give rise to certain obligations in lieu of the rights obtained from the guild.
You can't send them to the dead without telling them the details.
But while in the position of guild master, he is a hargey who has held workshops for young adventurers and taught them how to fight for a long time. I couldn't imitate the development of the adventurers like that to him, who kept hoping to come back alive.
"What am I supposed to say to them and send them out?
Hargay eyes are serious. Even before the power of the Schusenwald Borderline House, it never flickers.
Labyrinth inside, Demon Forest outside.
The man who binds adventurers for a long time in this land, isolated from the realm of men, was also their protector.
"Until my brother killed the labyrinth. Hargey."
Take Hargey's gaze head-on and Weishardt answers that.
Leonhardt is still fighting. Teasing through the nightmares of the dead, his cutting-edge will necessarily reach the Lord of the Labyrinth.
"A new demon has been created, eating each other and receiving meat.
That means that few demons have been subjected to flesh long enough to withstand the invasion of the earth.
It was never in vain that the Labyrinth Crusaders and the adventurers continued to dive into the Labyrinth for years and squeeze its power.
Our time spent, the sacrifice was worth everything, from a drop of that blood to a piece of meat.
And now the restrictions on the movement of demons in the labyrinth have been lifted, even though flesh-received demons have not been stored and the demons are not fully prepared for flooding (stampede). In the labyrinth, our hate enemies must already have a (...) and a (...).
Brother, General Leonhardt of the Golden Lion necessarily kills the labyrinth.
Until then, Hargey.
Until then, we will defend the Labyrinth City, protect the people who live in it, defeat the demons and wield the power of the Labyrinth.
Everybody listen up. This is not an endless battle of invisible defense.
It is a battle to bring our city back into the hands of men from demons.
This is the watershed.
Do we truly welcome the natural days we build and enjoy, and certainly win tomorrow, in our land, or are even those days taken from us and made greedy?
Brother, General Leonhardt, the Golden Lion, will kill the Labyrinth and will surely return to the land.
Until then, protect this land together. "
There is no despair in Weishardt's eyes. What is there is certainty, a belief in protecting the people.
It is a duty born to the Schusenwald Borderline Uncle, a grief, the significance of his presence.
"Right. Is General Kim Lion still fighting? Then let's keep the sword, Deputy General Weishardt. Our Adventurer Alliance will fight alongside the Labyrinth Crusaders!
Tsubishi! Hargay answers with a good smile.
If the Schusenwald brothers have not given up fighting, this city, created to kill the labyrinth, will only serve its purpose. If this is exactly the time, then not taking the sword will not even be an adventurer.
"Come on, you bastards! Summon the Adventurers! That's the best stomping point we've got here! It's time to earn a generation. Don't forget to support the fools so they don't die! Let's go! Team Hargay is here!
Because of this situation, is it the sex of the adventurer that makes the blood noise? The executives gathered here responded to Hargey, who instructed the executives of the Adventurer's Alliance.
"Gilmouth, please go alone"
"Mastering the situation to match the power of the adventurers, saying that no matter how many people you have, you don't have enough people,"
"Oh, you don't need Gilmouth's hand, so go to the front and come rampage"
"And because no one has approved the name of Team Hargey."
"Oh, you guys no!?
Corner scratch! I decided, but it's ruined as usual.
Despite the emergency, the steel mentality of the Adventurer Guild staff is as normal as usual. I feel really safe. That and this will probably be thanks to Hargay's daily Kaoru pottery.
Executives of the Adventurer Guild follow Weishardt's instructions and leave the conference room to quickly convene the Adventurers. He looks like he can afford it, and he can even afford to waste his mouth.
"We've had some disagreements about Team Hargay's name for a long time."
"I want it to be at least about team/breaking limits. Embarrassing."
"No, isn't Gilmouth not allowed in Team Hagen? I don't need you to come in."
"You guys? I'm shaving, aren't I?
"Mm......, is it an aggressive loss? That's quite a new interpretation. I certainly can't even say bald."
Looking at the guild staff as they tap each other lightly but share their work with Teki, Weishardt asks, "What are they talking about?," he snapped his little neck shaking his beautiful blonde hair.
Terutel's advisor, who was watching what happened on the spot,
"Shave……. Cleanliness!"
And I was terribly impressed by something.
