Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.
Episode 483 Base
"Back off! Out of the way!"
Giggle!
"Ngh!!"
A little later, people pour out from the northwest direction of the rock wall.It seems that the entrance was made in the northwest direction, and while the slaves were kicking, the members of Puppet's crew came out.
"It's going to be a big deal inside."One of them filled the walls with wind magic as he tried to fly the fog.Looks like some of them fainted. ”
Thirty or so people came out, which was considerably less than Surakutan's report. I thought it might have been, but I still tried to blow the feint fog with wind magic.
At this point, I didn't think there was anyone to stop the stupid chooser, and I didn't think this base was my base, but I left without confirming, and this was actually my base... I don't know what to do, so I move to deal with the people who came out.
By using advanced magic to annihilate everyone... I mean, it involves the slaves, so I'll quietly avoid the slaves and deal with the bandits.
I heard a lot when I bought Nil, but slavery is basically not very far from the Lord.
Some people have given orders to die just after a certain distance, and that's normal.
It is an order not to imitate the master to be defended and not to run away. If that is the case on the battlefield, it will be even more so.Always be a shield.
However, even if the slave fully serves as a shield, it does not mean that he can take all the opponent's attacks.
For example, if a person who can't truly forgive this kind of work and has the speed to outdo a meta-human seriously launches an attack, it doesn't matter if it's a slave shield.
Squeaky-squeaky!
Heine and I tried to get into Nil's backup, but sooner and faster, Slatan ran into those who came out of the wall.
"Huh?!"
Doggone!
Guuu...
The slaves stood as shields to protect their masters, but the slaver who had passed through in an instant was not shackled, in other words, he kicked up the dovetail of one of the bandits with his knees.
A man who leaked a thin airy voice through his mouth fell off his knee and squatted on the ground.
He's not dead, but he won't be able to stand up for a while.
Suratan didn't use a dagger and kicked the opponent with a blow, not because he wanted to hurt her.
When a slave's master dies, it's best to disable it first, because it can be linked to death.If your husband faints and you are in a situation where you cannot issue an order to a slave, the slave will not come into the darkness, and it is likely that you will not disobey the order even if you do not fight us.
For example, unless you have a special order to attack the opponent until they die, or if the slave dies the moment they are attacked, the slave will not escape and will not take part in the battle when his master passes out.And there's almost no one who gives such special orders.It's also a commodity. If you consume slaves who are your shields in miscellaneous ways, you can see that you will be dropped into a dilemma. Even a bad-headed bandit can understand that such an order will only strangle you.
However, slaves who do not try to protect themselves must have given orders with appropriate consequences.I don't know if I'm going to die, but I can predict that the slaves will find themselves in a situation they can't protect.
Thinking about it, Sura-Tan probably chose to neutralize the bandits rather than kill them.
And that choice was right.
Doggone!
"Grrrr!"
Bakiki!!
"Naah!"
Nil and Pirte joined forces, and as they neutralized the bandits one after another, the slaves associated with the bandits, who were unable to issue orders, lowered their weapons one after the other.
If you look at the situation where every slave, his master and a bandit with combat experience is incapacitated one after another in seconds, you can clearly understand whether they can beat each other or not.
In the end, the bandits didn't have time to do anything, and everyone was silent.
W-We don't want to fight!
As soon as the bandits were all silent, one of the slaves shouted, dropping his weapon.
If any of the bandits asked me, it would be a big deal later, so I would have waited until I had a situation where I didn't have to worry about being asked.
"We have no intention of attacking you either."If you throw away your weapon, I won't make it worse, so please be quiet. "
We can't afford our situation in time, and we'll do everything we can, but we can't wait until you trust us with your words.
When Pilte tells everyone to surrender, the slaves drop their weapons one after the other.
“I didn't need any backup.”
“Yes, it looks like this place isn't ours.”
“It would be easier to talk about it if the minor had fallen down inside the wall.”
"If the bandits can be defeated so easily, they won't grow so big."
"That's right..."
My low hopes were then shattered by Heine and Pilté, who investigated the inside of the walls.
That's all of them.
Heine and Pilte took all the people out of the wall and bound them and rolled them to the ground, but neither the player nor the minor were seen.It's not unlikely that you're masquerading, but... you're not stupid enough to get caught, and it's unlikely.
"If you kill these people, will your lives be in danger?"
"No, we are worthy of goods, and even if they die, we will not die."
Apparently, it wasn't linked to my husband's life.
This is a battlefield, and we assume that Puppet members will die.If only one member dies and several slaves die, the products we collected will die one after the other.
If the member dies and the slave's master is gone, as long as there are slave marks and shackles, there is no escape anywhere, and it is easy to catch them later.If so, the idea is that there is no need to keep life interlocking.Thanks to you, it is easier to do this.
"Then it's easy to talk."
Ladies and gentlemen, please make a big detour to the battlefield and head south.I think that if you go from the west side into the forest, you can go relatively safely.
If you go all the way south, you should see a small village in front of the mountains.Stay hidden around there. "
I didn't reveal the location of the Hidden Village, but Nil gave the slaves enough information to get there.
I don't know how much this story will save them, but at least they will be able to live a much more hopeful life.
If I can use any holy soul magic to remove the shackles of slaves, I would like to do so, but Nil's shackles have not come off, so you will soon know whether it is possible or impossible.
I see, I get it.
The slaves nodded in bewilderment at Nil's words.If you suddenly show up, ravage those who have the right to kill and take their lives, and suddenly tell them to go anywhere, they won't be frank.
However, whether my life as a slave is long or not, they nodded honestly without saying anything in particular.It wouldn't be a bad idea for them if you could just do as they say… I'll leave the choice to them.
Talking about the hidden villages here, if one of them gets caught, it could put the people of the hidden villages in danger.That is the only thing that must be avoided.
Cynthia, can I read their memories?
Seeing the stunned bandits, Heine asked.
"Yeah. Now that we know who we're dealing with, it'll be easier to move from here."Extract as much information as you can.When we're done, we'll get rid of them, and then we'll move on. ”
"Ah, um..."
That's what we're talking about. One of the slave men comes in and breaks it.
"If you're looking for the Puppets, keep heading west."
To the west? Not to the southwest?
Yes.
He didn't try to say anything more, but he felt a quiet rage in his eyes.Because he's a slave, you don't have to ask him how many emotions are swirling inside him.Besides, there was a situation where I couldn't tell you the details.
"... All right, thanks."
"No... I... thank you."
Having said that, the man bows his head deeply.
Even if we were the first, they seem to feel like they've been helped by us.
Unless they killed the bandits, they couldn't get out of here, and they weren't released yet, but they were just grateful.
"I'm sorry, but we can't go together."I'm going to get rid of them and go somewhere else. ”
“Yes, I know. We'll be on our way, so don't worry.”
“I'm sorry.”
"Please don't apologize!" We're lucky to be free of these people!
Instead, please be careful when heading west. "
"Yeah. Okay."
When the slaves talk like that, they're a little far away from us.They seem to be trying to help each other get out of this battlefield, and there's something we're talking about.It's safer than running alone, and you're right.The wisdom to live as a slave...
Protect Heine and Pilte while praying that they don't get caught running away from here.
How about that?
"As I heard earlier, it looks like there's something going on towards the west."
"Don't you know what that thing is?"
I can only tell that there are not as many people as there are here.
You're inviting me... to join you...
"No... I don't think I know anything more."
I don't think the bandits in this base know anything about the bottom line.
The slaves told me to head west, probably because someone told me that people were gathering here on the west side.
Certainly, as things stand, we have no choice but to rely on that information, but I think it's natural for a slave or a person who managed it to feel lured in if someone who is careful not to give it any information is only giving it away.
I don't say it's evidence, but it's perfectly concealing Maina's own appearance and what she's trying to do by gathering people.
I definitely think it's a trap, right?
"I definitely think it's a trap." But if we don't have any other information to rely on, we'll have to go. ”
I don't have any information on Tempest, and I don't think I'll be able to make it west...
“As long as I have time to find out more about Tempest and Puppets, I can think of something else…”
Originally, we started acting on the assumption that we would only be dealing with handymen, so we had too little information about other bandits.Even if we know it's a trap, if there's a chance we can get information from it, we don't have a choice.Including that, the person who created this battlefield must be controlling the board.It really oozes bad character.
Master, the bandits are finished.
"Okay, I'd like to say let's start moving... but be as vigilant as you can."We're going west, but we're going to jump into a trap.I don't know what kind of opponent is coming at what time, and I don't think I can count on the terrain or anything. "
Think of the trap set up anywhere and move.
"Yeah. If you feel suspicious, you can stop every time."We're going to be safe first. "
Yes!
Originally, I wanted to run at full speed, but I didn't want to run through the minefield.
It's going to take a while, but I'm going to step on the trap and slowly move on so that we don't all blow up.After starting to move for a few minutes, I proceeded crisply without anything in particular, but a few minutes later, Nil and Pilté, who were at the head, stopped.
"...... something...... - You feel uncomfortable going forward."
Pilte murmured as he looked ahead.
"Did you find anything?"
"No, I didn't find anything suspicious, but I think the view is uncomfortable."What is it...? "
With that said, Pilte kept staring at the plain while stopping.
I also feel uncomfortable, and I think it might be the case if I was told that there was a trap set up around here.
"I think the discomfort is probably caused by grass growing from the ground."
Ah! I see! That's true!
Pilte noticed the discomfort in Heine's words.
"The grass around here is divided into places that have been trampled underfoot and places that are not.I probably tried to erase the trail if I didn't keep my eyes peeled. ”
"That means there's someone who did it, and the purpose is... well, you don't have to think about it."
"It looks like you have to be very careful from here on out."
"It would be best if we could proceed so that we don't find out, but it would take a long time..."
From where we are, we can't see people, and we can only see things like thin lanterns and lights swaying in the distance.If you go so carefully to the place where there is so much distance, the night will really dawn instead of being a metaphor.
"I don't have time for that, so let's go ahead and process it all at once."It's easy to activate a trap with Golem magic.Sometimes it's magic, so take turns. "
Sinya-kun.
In the middle of the conversation, Surakotan calls me by my name as he sneezes.
"I have a very good idea."
"A very good idea...?"
"If it's okay to trigger the trap, I'll run through it all at once."
It's not that I'm angry, it's just a pale word, but what are you talking about? That's the content.
"Actually, I've tried a lot of things, but even if I step on the trap, I can run through it before it activates."
"" ""... what?! "" "
Everyone was surprised.
Of course. There's no point in setting up a trap if you can simply run through it.
"I realized it when I was out on the battlefield and running around."I thought maybe I could go... so I tried it earlier.And then I went. "
"I told you I'd gone..."
It was a big battlefield, so it was a mixed battlefield.There wasn't a single place or two that had Trap Magic.I don't know where I checked it, but I can't believe I was doing that...
"Ah, that's dangerous!!"
The one who is angry is Pilate.This was also normal. There are no idiots who stick themselves into the trap.
"That's okay, I tried it after I stepped on the trap magic, activated it, counted the time to give it an effect, and I was confident I could go."
Still!
"Ugh..."
Since Surakitan is engaged in research, if I thought I could check it myself, it would be an experiment in which the results were known to a certain extent. I think I was confident, but it is not such a problem.It's no surprise that Pilate gets angry.
"I-I 'm sorry..."
Though Surakutan's personality may be there, his unfamiliarity with fighting may have made him act a little imprudent.It's possible that my senses went crazy when I was hit by the battlefield air.However, if Piltee, who is not usually angry, is so angry, he will have reflected on Sura-tan, and if there is no second time, it is fine now.
"Suraitan. Are you sure you're okay?"
“Yeah, that's for sure.If I run as hard as I can, I can make it through before the trap works. ”
………………
I think there is no doubt in Surakutan's character that Surakutan's story is true.If there is even a little uncertainty, there is nothing to say so far, and if it is okay, it will definitely be okay.
On that premise, I will consider a situation where it would be dangerous if Surakitan ran through the plains and tried to activate the trap.
For example, if the trap was not inductive but rather shaped like a physical pitfall.
No matter how fast the sura-tan runs, it falls into the hole.No, the slatan is running at super-speed, so it should hit the side of the hole before it falls into the hole.Slatan's speed is incredible, but his recoil when he falls is huge.Even though we're in a meadow with grass underneath, if we turn at full speed... we won't want to imagine much.Besides, there must be other traps set up there.If you fall over and put it in the trap... you're going to die the worst.
In addition, this plain is not flat and has slight unevenness.If the rocket enters the convex part at the speed of the slatan, the launch pad of the rocket is good and the slatan itself may fly away.
I tried to think about it a lot, but after all, I can't agree with the forced breakthrough that I left to Surakutan.
"No, I don't want to endanger Surakutan."I think we should be careful here. ”
I can do it, right?
“No, I don't want to take as much risk as I can now.”
