Episode 128 Advanced Hierarchy (3)

"When, it's not my turn next..."

I can't hear you from here, but Gonzo is probably murmuring about it.

"Hey! Are you okay?!

"Hey, don't go!

I hear Gonzo's nervous voice.

"Calm down!

I don't know if you're getting my voice, but the slide looks good.

You can hear the sound of running in vain. I was worried about getting caught in the path of the blade, but I don't think it would be such a pity.

"Run!"

"Now!

"I understand!

Gonzo runs exactly as Nil and I instruct him. I'm nervous and I can't move much, but I'm clear.

And finally Nil.

"I'm coming!

For some reason, Nil is not nervous at all and is crisp and clear.

"Let's see, what was the tension of the handicapped..."

"Why isn't Nil so nervous...?

"I don't think you need to be nervous to follow the path your husband showed you.

"Ooh...."

Nil trusts me so much...

"Now, let's head to the 68th floor.

Nil slightly pardoned Gonzo's reaction to me and opened the door to the next.

Shit.....

Sixty-eighth level.

I already knew it, but it's still a trap room.

There are five thin scaffolds running from the entrance to the exit.

Everything else is a dangerous mucus... just slipping your feet and dying. Only in the senior hierarchy, the trap feels genuinely murderous.

The five scaffolds are concentrated in one place at the beginning, but are a long way off the road. It does not have a particularly complex structure, with two scaffolds straight in the middle, slightly curved on both sides, and even larger curved scaffolds on the outside, stretching to just half of the room.

You can choose one of them and walk… but it only lasts half as long as this trap room. Half the way there is a slightly wider section, with a thin bar standing perpendicular to it about one meter. At the tip of the stick, each Fist Magic Stone is fitted one by one.

Red, blue, green, yellow-green, and brown from the left.

I wonder which coloured stick you choose to reach...

And at the foot, which is the starting point, there is a tablet fitted in, and this sentence is written there.

[Follow the guidance of the van der Light.

"Is it a fandel light...? Why not?

I know the word.

When I put my hand on the necklace hanging from my neck, the corner of Nil and the van der Light hit, making a crackling sound.

The blue jewel that Puka gave me. The name of the jewel is Fanderlight.

"The correct answer is the path followed by the blue jewels.

I didn't expect Puka and Sylvie to be able to help me here again... if I hadn't heard about this jewel from Puka, I wouldn't know the right answer.

Nil has a long slave life and knows little about accessories.

As Gonzo had said, he didn't even know the word. Rat certainly doesn't know.

"Your husband's necklace...

"Ah... thank you... Puka, Sylvie.

After thanking you, take your hands off the necklace.

Five colors make you think of magic as completely unrelated hints and answers. It's a dungeon that I hate too much.

Nevertheless... I didn't expect to see the name of Fanderlight in this place...

I go down the road where the blue magic stone is embedded. Nil and the others are waiting for the start point for the time being.

When you reach a slightly wider place, you touch the magic stone of the fist.

Shit.....

As soon as I touched it, the magic stone lighted up and the stick slowly entered the floor.

At the same time, scaffolding from half the point toward the exit rises out of the mucus.

"Ooh...."

Gonzo's voice was heard from behind, and when I looked sideways, all the scaffolds except the scaffolding I was standing on entered the mucus of the mucus.

If I was wrong, it would have melted with the scaffolding... or is this dungeon too scary...?

When I arrive at the exit, Nil and the others convey the scaffolding in turn to the exit.

I'm really glad nothing happened...

"It's nice to spend less time in one room... but the trap room is bad for my heart..."

"I don't like this kind of room because there's nothing I can do..."

"If it was just me, it would definitely have ended here..."

"But... there's another level..."

Currently, there are 68 levels. That means there should be another level trap room.

Everyone reached out to the door that followed the trap room with their thoughts on it.

Shit.....

Sixty-ninth hierarchy.

I was able to understand what to do as soon as I entered this room.

Unlike other rooms, the door was opened about three meters above the ceiling and quite far from the floor.

Why is there a door so high... you can see it peeking down from the scaffold in front of the door.

From the scaffold in front of the door, you can see a scaffold one meter wide descending in three directions: front, right, and left. The scaffold then bends in all directions, up and down, intersects in three dimensions, and eventually only one scaffold reaches the exit.

I thought you said it was a three-dimensional super-complex maze.

The scaffolding in the maze stretches all the way down and the bottom is invisible. I wonder how tall it is… it seems better not to think about it.

The intersecting scaffolds appear to have holes and tunnels in the lower part of the upward scaffold.

From above, you can see the maze from above, and it's too complicated to look around.

Thinking about the trap so far, I feel dangerous if I jump to another path on the way... It seems better to look from the top and follow the path leading to the exit seriously and come up with the right answer.

"This is... going to take a while..."

"By the time the right answer is confirmed, my eyes will be dry and shivers..."

Exhale with nil as you look at the complex maze that spreads under your eyes.

However, compared to the previous four hierarchies, if it takes time, there is no risk to life. You should be pleased with that.

And when an hour and a half passed.

"Right.

Right.

I checked several times and found that the scaffolding leading to the right was correct.

Incidentally, Rato and Gonzo turned their eyes on the way and got sick, so they gave up.

"I'm sorry I didn't use it..."

"If you know the right answer, it's the same for everyone. Everyone is not good at it.

Once you know the correct answer, you'll continue through the maze to the exit. It didn't mean anything in particular, but... if I went the wrong way, what would have happened...? I'm concerned, but I don't have the courage to check it out.

"Next up is the inner boss.

"Don't work!

Me too!

I haven't used much health or magic so far, and I still have time until noon. We may be able to make more distance today than we thought.

Shit.....

The seventieth level.

Crazy!

The moment the door was opened, there was a sound of something hard poking the floor.

The sound belongs to an A-rank monster named Staver.

There are three in the center of the square room.

It doesn't look human... but it has a slightly similar shape.

Five hands to the left and right, ten feet in total. She has twenty pairs of hands and feet. All of its hands and feet are pointed, spear-shaped, and when it walks, it sounds like a hard object poking at the floor.

His whole body is burnt brown, and his body and head are human. I don't see any hair, but only dark eyes and sharp teeth in the mouth. There is no nose or ear.

It is about two meters tall and is a monster who specializes in stabbing attacks with his hands and feet.

It resembles a monster called Arakne, whose lower body is a spider and upper body is a human woman, but it is a different monster.

By the way, Arakne is in Arakne. A S-rank monster, strong enough to compare to the Stabber in front of you.

I've fought Stabber a few times. All dungeon fights, never seen in the wild. They won't order any quests, and they may be Dungeon-only monsters.

"I'm a monster I've never seen before..."

"I am not an awkward man.

Neither am I.

The other three seem to have seen Stabber for the first time.

"You're moving fast. Spike attacks on limbs are the main method of attack. Sometimes it bites and makes me dizzy (flickering) with earth magic.

The fact that this monster is the inner boss is a nod.

Burning brown epidermis are magically resistant and hard.

Attacks can be advanced magic or powerful weapons. However, it is literally a lot of trouble, and there is no time to use advanced magic for small parties due to constant stabbing attacks.

And, above all, its character runs out of ferocity.

Once the intruder appears, observe the opponent for a few seconds and then do not stop the attack until one of them dies.

"Geeerer!!!

Stubber screaming with his sharp teeth.

"Coming!!

Nil! Gonzo, please!

"Ok!

I've fought before, and Rato probably can afford a one-on-one.

The problem is Gonzo. He is good and definitely strong. However, Gonzo, who fights with Dawn with a big shot, and a monster who hurts his opponent with finesse like a stubber are incompatible.

Kankin '!

"I'll flush the attack!

Nil uses Black Flower Shields to shrug off Starbucks' attacks one after the other. Contrary to Gonzo, Nil is a good match in terms of defense for Nil, who observes the opponent well and targets the gap with tiger sights.

Each attack is light, so the pressure can be tolerated without parrying, even if you get stuck in the front. This creates a simple and powerful diagram where Nil finds a gap in the parry of the attack and Gonzo knocks into the big blow…

"Gaaaaaaa!!

Kim!

Gently remove the stubble sticking out in front of you.

It's a very light attack, so we only pay a small price for speed as well. Then you can't just cut your arm off.

It's not all about other people. I must destroy them alone.

It can be a bit tricky, but one way to destroy it is not impossible to move faster than a stubber and launch a magical attack without getting anywhere near it.

However, if you do it now, it is possible that it will go towards Rato or Gonzo and Nil, so I can't.

The answer is surprisingly simple.

Behind you,

You'll only need the speed of your feet to do that, but for the stubber in front of you, there's a completely blind spot behind you. It's a weakness.

Of course, Stabber himself knows that, so he's going to make a fine and fast attack so he can't move, but it's time to get used to fast enemies.

Squeaking!

Play several Stabber's Spike attacks with a True Water Sword and run forward with the lowest posture possible at the moment of the gap in the attack.

Dunn!

Stabber responds to my movements and releases his arm down, but I'm not there anymore.

I lowered my posture to the floor wrestling between the legs of the stubber... that is, through the crotch and behind me.

I know from my gaming experience that this is an unexpected movement that the stubber can't react to.

Of course, when I missed the shoot, I saw five left legs supporting my body from my right side.

Gagga!

"Gegi...."

The missing stubber leans to the left and supports the weight with three left arms to stop it.

I didn't fall, but I don't have the means to follow me or be attacked.

Zashh!

Lightly jump up and snap the stubber's neck from behind.

Dosha!

The head that gave the command to the body disappeared, and the force from the body that was supported to not fall somehow disappeared, and eventually fell to the left.

Buzz buzz!

Turning to the familiar rat discharge sound, he almost bit off his neck. It's a natural result because it can move much faster than a stabbing attack like that.

"Ready! Thank you!

Zashh!!

Gong!

A few meters before me, Gonzo's severed stubber head flew in and rolled.

"Looks like it's over.

Gonzo grumbles his shoulders, as if he could finally move his body.

"Let's take a 30-minute break in the next room before we go next.

"Ok!

Speaking of the middle-boss, if you are somewhat compatible, you can defeat it fairly quickly and easily. I wish I had all these monsters... but that's impossible.

Sandwich a 30-minute break, seventy-first floor.

"I'm going.

Shit.....

There are plenty of pillars in the room that opens the door.

One meter in diameter stone columns stretching straight from the floor to the ceiling are randomly placed.

There are many pillars and I can't see the exit door.

The red snake of an A-rank monster is wrapped around such a pillar.

There are nearly ten of them just by looking at them. Probably just can't see, and there will be more. You can see the brown snake in your sight. It seems to be a snake festival.

This hierarchy seems to be easily broken.

Rooms with a lot of obstacles like this can be a really easy place to fight for us to move quickly. You can use pillars to fly around, or you can hide attacks from enemies in pillars.

Sure enough, this room is easy to clear without danger.

From the seventy-second level to the seventy-fourth level, the monsters changed but cleared without much difficulty. Both magic and health came to the inner boss room without consuming much.

Shit.....

Seventy-fifth hierarchy.

The structure of the room remains unchanged, and the pillars are rampant.

In the back, you can see a black figure.

"Shadow hunter...?

"... no. That's a subspecies.

The shadow hunter subspecies are human shadows about the size of a small man. It's like a dagger in my hand. There has been little change in appearance. The only difference is that the light in the center of the face has changed from yellow to blue.

However, in terms of speed of movement and three-dimensional maneuvers, the shadow hunter takes a step up.

Speed game again.

I can't lose!

With the sword in place, four shadow hunter species emerge from the shadow of the pillar. It seems that the five bodies together with the individuals that I saw from the beginning are the opponents.

"Let's go!

Must win first!

I kick the ground hard and approach the individual on the left end, avoiding the pillars.

You realized I was after you, and they started moving.

When you kick the floor surface, you jump up to the pillar, kick the side, cross to a different pillar, and then kick over and over again, making it really hard to read.

"That's why I can do it!

When I kick the floor, I jump up to the side of the pillar that I see in front of me, just like the Shadow Hunter, just jumping between the pillars faster.

"Haah!

Boom!

Shadow Hunter takes the back of the subspecies and shakes the sword, but avoids shuddering with a body that can change its proud shape.

"Huh?!

Next time I can hit... when I think about it, another individual emerges from the shadow of the pillar.

"Ugh!?

The shadow hunter subspecies that kept going straight twisted their bodies.

Two against one. Excellent! "

I have more power in my feet and will jump between pillars faster than before.

"Looks like you're not chasing me...

Zashh!

Slash the shadow hunter subspecies in half.

I wonder if you were watching the timing, or if someone was coming from behind.

Ho!

I kick my legs up big in the air.

Your body turns upside down in the air and faces the incoming shadow hunter subspecies upside down.

"Laaa!

Bush!

Hold still and wave your sword at the approaching shadow hunter subspecies. No matter how much you can change the shape of your body, there are limits in the air.

The direction of travel cannot be changed, and it is divided vertically.

Yoo-hoo!

Use your legs again to bring your body back to the side of the pillar. Without defying gravity, it falls towards the floor.

Looking down, Rato is already watching Nil and the others fight.

"Haa!

Fuck!

Nil's pale fireworks can be seen penetrating the shadow hunter subspecies' heads from the side.

When we landed on the floor, the enemy disappeared from the room.

"So far so good.

"It was a good field situation..."

"I can't be alarmed, but I think I can get to the eightieth floor.

I see. Maybe we can get there.

The time should be around noon now. There seems to be a temporal respite.

Gonzo entered the safety zone and spoke while having lunch.

"Nooo... if I were just an awkward person, I wouldn't have been able to escape..."

"... what will Gonzo do when he gets out of here?

………

Gonzo knows what I'm going to do about it.

Leaving Gonzo here, against the fallen... I wonder if there are any problems of this kind in any race. My chest is pounding, but I still think it's something someone has to say. It is not good to hold it by yourself. I came to this world and understood it well.

Gonzo himself won't be able to go out with them as if nothing had happened.

"That's not true... the selfish one..."

Gonzo once turned down and thought of something, then raised his face and smiled.

"When I get out of here, I want to take a bath first!
