Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.
Chapter 103 Greenman
It was completely unexpected, not the amount of liquid coming out of crushing a few millimeters of leaves.
"Uhhh?!
I'm shocked, I'm shouting, but it's already too late. The liquid is dripping all over my arm.
"Master?! It's too inadvertent!
"I'm sorry..."
Nil is right. It wasn't an easy thing to do because I was concerned... but this action led to very good results.
Appraisal Magic that was almost always active. Before the action was taken, it was marked as… in dense forests, like other plants, but somehow it changed.
[Greenman's footprint… A very rare plant that grows only for a certain amount of time from Greenman's footprint. Contains ingredients that enhance drug efficacy.
"Seriously?!
"Well, what's the matter?!
Nil starts to wonder if something's wrong with my body.
"Oh, no. No, no, this grass. Looks like it's a hell of a thing.
There's a horn of horn rabbits that I've been using to treat wounds, right?
"Sure... it had the effect of slightly increasing the drug's efficacy, right?
"You remember well..."
"It's your husband's word!
Nil bragging.
"I see... no. Rather, it seems that the grass contains ingredients that enhance its medicinal efficacy. There is no indication that it is slight.
"Are you saying it's more effective than horn rabbit horns?!
"Probably. However, it seems to grow only for a certain amount of time from Greenman's footprints.
"Now, let's pick one immediately!
"Oh, let's hurry.
Nil and I decided to harvest the plant as much as we could, relying on the lantern light and the light of my light in the dark jungle.
Because the bottom is muddy, it is easy to pull through the roots simply by pulling lightly.
Nil and I repeatedly searched for footprints to pull out the plants and work on the inventory.
There are no monsters near the Green Man, so I was able to secure a large amount without being attacked by anything while I was working.
"Su, that's an incredible amount..."
"It's still here!
Nil is working too hard, and then he brings me from one to the next.
"Ah... but I'm starting to shrivel..."
The grass that Nil picked again was shriveled. I am lowering my neck. Nil also unfortunately lowered his head in the same way.
I don't think it can be used because the results of the appraisal magic will not change, but I think it's time to raise it.
"The amount is enough, so I think it's time to raise it.
Yes!
When Nil and I tried to leave the scene, the sight caught our eye a little further away.
Greenman's body stood so that his whole body was caught up in trees and grass.
It was quite exciting, but the plant growth has also stopped, and the Greenman himself has completely stopped moving.
There were no signs, no sways or plant growth, so I was late to notice its existence.
"Is he dead...?
"I don't know... I don't think I've been attacked by something..."
"Oooh!
"Huh?!
I've been in this jungle ever since I made it.
Suddenly a voice will be heard from a nearby bush.
I don't dream of people in places like this, but I stop thinking for a moment.
"Who are you?!
Four adventurers emerged from the bush. It consists of a shield sword, a dagger, a great sword, a bow.
Those with bows and daggers are women. The Shield Sword and the Great Sword are men. Unusual as an adventurer's party, everyone is a different species.
A fine, handsome man of the clan with a great sword called out. Long blue hair with blue eyes and a neat face. He is tall and looks like 180 centimeters.
Wearing scratchy iron armor on the left shoulder and waist, it looks like the big sword you have is quite old.
"Calm down. We're adventurers.
Hold Nil in front of him with his hands and encourage him to raise his hands with his eyes. I want to avoid fighting in the jungle at night.
There is no possibility of the Holy Knights or the Black Dogs... but there is no need to bother showing up and it is unlikely to be either.
Nil knows, and he raises his hand with his weapon.
He raised his hands and told me that he had no intention of engaging, but he still hasn't lowered his weapon. You're already watching Nil and me. Something wrong...?
"Then show me the Adventurer's plate.
I was cold told by an elf woman holding a bow. Is it as tall as Nil?
Long green hair and brown eyes. Her lips were thin and her face was shiny, but she looked like an elf.
It's a light outfit with a barrel on the back and a leather shoulder rest only.
"Okay. Don't attack me now.
"If you make a suspicious move, I'll cut you right off.
When I try to put my hand on my chest, a Rabbit Beast woman with a dagger flicks the blade.
Red ears on short red hair. Turning towards Nil on the side, you can see a red, round tail on your waist. She has big red eyes and is low in height.
Wearing leather armor, lightweight. Compared to an elf woman, she is more cute than beautiful.
Chara...
With the Adventurer's plate out of his chest, the shortest man with a shield and a sword approaches.
He is a dwarf man.
There are dwarfs in this world. It is a species that can only be seen very (very rarely), and has only been seen once during games. I haven't seen it since I came to this world.
The reason for this is that, like the dwarves, they are neutral to all races, and most dwarves don't leave their cities so they don't put their shoulders anywhere.
The Dwarves are more skilled than any other race and produce magic tools. I think that the technology is very powerful because they understand it well and are neutral to avoid abuse and abuse….
However, since there are no dwarfs that come out because there are adventurers inside and farming tools in small villages, they are rarely seen outside.
You may think that such species could be used to get caught outside, but if you reach out to them and make them known to your clan… you will never do such a stupid thing because all technology and tools will be thoroughly regulated.
In addition, the Dwarves are powerful and simply strong, making it impossible to do anything that is likely to be retaliated against.
By the way, the Dwarves are one of the species we want to form an alliance with.
A dwarf man holding a shield and a sword wears an iron triangular helmet with sharp brown eyes underneath. The brown hair coming out of the back of the helmet is knitted into three short, small knitted pieces.
She had a brown moustache around her mouth, and it was also knitted into three.
I was only about nil when I was small, but my whole body muscles were moldy and super macho. Clothes visible to arms and feet are stretched against the bread.
They wear metal armor on their shoulders, torso, and hips, all of which are aged.
"I'm Caidoo the Adventurer. This is Nil.
The dwarf who saw my plate took a step back and nodded to the other three, telling them the rank written on my plate.
"You don't seem to be lying.
A man with a great sword talks to me. Nil must have recognized him as a slave.
Perhaps he is the leader of this party.
"There's no reason to lie.
………
The four of us who are still vigilant.
Of course, Nil and I are also on guard. If they move, we'll just be able to move right away.
"If you make a scene like this, the monsters will stop by. I don't want to make a scene if I can.
Even if you're not very good at it, you're suspicious that there's something backwards...
I'll just say that I'm not willing to fight, but I'll tell you to drop your weapon.
"What are you doing here...?
"There's something I need to do in the back of this dense forest.
"This is not a safe place to get in and out alive. By mistake, it shouldn't be a place for A-ranked adventurers and slaves to come alone.
"... does that have anything to do with you?
I don't know what you're so vigilant about, but we just want to get through.
I don't suppose we're doing this in a place like this?
The area is full of grass and trees. Then, move your eyes and neck to communicate.
"... everyone. Drop your weapon.
A man of the leader tribe lowers his sword and tells everyone.
Then, first a veterinarian woman, then a dwarf man, and finally an elf woman lays down her weapon.
And Nil and I will put our hands down accordingly.
Phew. I'm glad you're talking to someone. Then we're leaving, so do what you want.
"Wait!"
When Nil and I try to leave the scene, the elf woman rearranges the bow. Last time I lowered my bow, I felt a tenderness. Perhaps the most vigilant of these four.
"Hey... aren't we done here?
"Why are you trying to escape?
"I'm trying to escape... wait.
I turn my left palm to an elf woman and my right ear to the rear. Nil also noticed immediately and stuck his ear.
"Hey, don't move!
I put my left index finger up against an elf woman and put it in my mouth. I want you to be quiet, but I don't even want to say that word.
Apparently, the Wesen woman has already noticed and is calling out to the elf woman. Good ears for boulders.
Crazy.....
"Nil."
"Yes."
I could definitely hear the grass rubbing against each other. Something is definitely approaching.
Too much noise...
Nil immediately pulls out his shield and dagger and faces the right rear.
Crunchy...
The grass was scraped out by a six-meter snake with a bright red epidermis.
I know this guy. It's Red Snake. It's a variant of Brown Smoke, a B-ranked monster. It's an A-ranked monster. Hardness and speed of movement are slightly higher than brown snake, but this one is poisonous.
Nevertheless, Nil and I, who defeated the worm, seem to have a backward compatibility, even with poison.
"Red Snake?!
The elf woman is surprised. Poisonous monsters are a threat. I suppose you think there's been a nasty monster.
Nil, let's go quietly!
Yes!
The voice is also slightly suppressed, but it is divided into Nil and left and right.
I don't want to make too much noise, so I don't use items or magic, so I take them out at once.
"Shah!"
Nil opens his big mouth and approaches the threatening red snake silently, gently rubbing the pale fireworks against the shield of black flowers.
Bee!
More unevenness than the Black Shield, the pale sparks scatter flashy.
Red Snake looks at the spark that appears in front of him and rushes towards Nil with a big mouth open.
Bakung!
However, Nil can't be caught in such a rush, and he can afford to sidestep the attack.
Shh!
Zuba!
If you attack Nil, of course you'll lose your guard on me, so I'm completely free and I'll slit Red Snake's neck.
Dotcha!
It falls from the neck to the mud.
The mouth was squeaky open and closed, and the rest of the torso was wrapped around the grenade, but in a few seconds the movement slowed down and stopped completely.
It feels like I'm getting stronger when I can easily beat A-ranked monsters like this.
"... in a flash..."
The man with the great sword of the people is murmuring and being dazed.
"If you stay here, don't come any closer... I'm sorry, but we'll let you go. I can't die here.
You'd better get moving too.
"Master.
Nil hurried me with his expression.
The tall tree in the vicinity should be in the west. I always figured it out when I was running, but it seemed to be the right answer.
"Wait, wait!
A man of the tribe will stop us from running away.
"I think it's a good story about insects, but can you take us with you?!
I suddenly wonder what to say... it's a really good story about insects.
I suddenly pointed the blade at you and asked you to help me if I was in a bad position...
"... follow me.
When I called, he nodded silently.
The Knights of the Holy Order and the Black Dogs would have started fighting long ago. At this time, I was already convinced that both Nil and I were an ordinary group of adventurers.
Then... you can't abandon it. Isn't Nil sweet with eyes? I heard that, but I frowned and smiled back.
People other than the Knights of the Holy Order still want to help as much as they can. Their attitude seemed undesirable to anyone, but for some reason, if they were abandoned here and died, their sleep would be too bad.
Running through the mud, the six of them arrive at the tree of interest.
There are no signs of monsters nearby at this time, but you can rest assured when you get up there.
"Up here.
"Climb?!
"Be quiet.
Listening to me, a man of the tribe puts his hands to his mouth. I am certainly afraid to climb such a tall tree if I think normally.
Even if Nil and I are wearing them, they are lightly equipped with leather breasts. Even if it falls, I don't feel so scared because I can use the high stat body and the magic that both Nil and I use to ease the impact.
In contrast, the man of the tribe and the man of the dwarf are likely to have metal armor and weight. If it fell, it would be shabby... even if you could use magic. Besides, it is not good to judge by appearance alone, but perhaps the two men are pure fighters. I wonder if magic can hardly be used. Then I nodded that my face was pale.
"Nil and I will go up and lower the rope first. So I'll pull you up, so wait.
"I'll climb with you.
Wesen women show their intention to climb together.
"I'm coming, too.
I wonder if an elf woman feels like... because she doesn't have a single veterinarian woman.
I wonder if two women are light and capable of magic. Looking at the tree doesn't seem to have any fear.
"Okay. Take care and climb.
"Do you say that to me in the elf?
Indeed, for the elves who live with the forest, climbing the tree will be before breakfast. The Beast clan is light in some people... and I don't know if I can climb a rabbit tree... but it doesn't matter because I'm a beast.
"Nil."
"Yes."
When I climb quickly, I decide to climb with Nil on my back.
Nil answered and turned his hand around his neck.
"Yoo-hoo.
"Ha, you're fast..."
The elf woman she was watching downstairs was also appalled. Is it fast after all?
As usual, she climbs all at once to the branch, lowers the nil to the branch, and then removes the rope from the inventory before the two women climb up. Don't forget to put the fake bag on the trunk as it was from the beginning because it is not the size to fit in the waist bag.
Fufufu. I'm growing up.
Throwing the rope down from the top of the branch lightly pulls the rope twice after a few seconds.
Pull it up carefully so that it doesn't shake too much. Both women managed to reach the branch and help the man of the tribe who pulled it up.
Immediately put the rope back, the dwarf man pulled up, and finally everyone arrived at the branch.
There was no time to build scaffolding, so it was a little narrow, but it wouldn't be worse if the branches and body were fixed with ropes.
"Ta, takeh...."
A dwarf man looks down and blues his face. He doesn't like high places. It is grasped tightly like sticking to a branch.
"Such a pitiful height. World trees are much higher.
"Compared to the tallest tree in the world, any tree will be a shorter tree..."
Elves and dwarves in this world have a relationship that is neither permissive nor impossible, unlike the usual classic of bad relationships.
The two arguments will be personal.
"Master.
Nil looks down the branch and calls me.
Some monsters are gathering around the trunk of the tree and preying on each other.
"Hmm... I'm glad I didn't get caught up in that..."
The Wesen woman peeks down and leaks the same feeling.
"Well... that's reassuring..."
Should we start talking from them who suddenly asked for help? When prompted with his eyes, the man of the tribe opens his mouth with a troubled face.
"Thank you for your help. Thank you very much. We're an S-ranked adventurer party called Eagle Crow.
Eagle Crow... that sounds kind of stingy.
And it's unusual to have an S-ranked adventurer party. I've only counted the players I've seen.
"My name is Donnate.
A tribal man starts introducing himself.
I feel uncomfortable that I am the first person in this figure... but was Kanti with me?
"My name is Saddle. Nice to meet you."
Dwarf men finish briefly introducing themselves while bluishing their faces. It doesn't seem like it's going anywhere.
"Atashi is Petro. Nice to meet you."
The woman of the Rabbit Beast tribe seems to be able to afford to stand on the branch and bow gently.
"... I'm Promerte.
An elf woman stares at her in disgrace. No... that's just what it looks like because it's a shiny eye.
"I'm sorry. Promerte doesn't have a lot of good feelings for people, and it's always like this.
Donnate said that again with a troubled face. He of the tribe says, "I don't dislike it anymore." I wonder if this is really what it looks like for everyone.
"Donnate, I'm just being careful.
"I won't be cautious when you help me. Well, I think it's softer (or something) than when I first met you.
…………
Promerte turned to his side with his face poked in pain by Donnate's words. Apparently, it was worse when I met Donnate.
"I've introduced Nil and me, so I'll skip it.
"That's right. Kaidoo and Nil. I remember.
I'm really sorry I pointed my weapon at you earlier. I'll apologize again.
Donnate lowers his head on the spot, and then everyone lowers their head once.
Petro laughs, Saddle looks like a branch, Promerte apologizes to the extent of a congregation and town, but is it unusual for an adventurer to just apologize...
