Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.

Episode 100 Treasure Bank of Life

Immediately after Nil and I step into the jungle, we activate the appraisal magic.

If you have a flock of plants that you don't know so well, plants that you touch unexpectedly may be dangerous. Description of the plants that appear around. Due to the large variety of plants, many names are displayed.

However, all the descriptions written in the notation are the same. For example, the first standing, there will be four meters, and the large, round grass that grows from the ground...

[Crazy Glass… A kind of plant that lives in dense forests.

It is.

Even if you look at other plants, it's a kind of plant that lives in dense forests. This is all I have written.

"What do you think?

"Hmm... so far, I don't see any dangerous notation. All plants are described only as plants that grow in dense forests.

"You mean all the plants are safe?

"No. Appraisal magic changes the notation… Maybe it's because I don't know enough about the plants here, even if I combine it with the world at large. Keep away from potentially dangerous things as much as possible.

"Yes, I understand.

Nil nodded that he understood and proceeded without touching anything nearby, as I said.

And we were baptized in this area as soon as possible.

"Ah, it's hard to walk..."

Every time you move your feet away from the ground, you hear a slippery sound, and every time you put your feet on the ground, your feet slip and sink.

"Don't let this rob you of your health..."

In addition to the state of the ground, the situation of sharpening the nerves spreads around.

The sound of leaves rubbing (supposedly) as if something was moving from the surroundings, or the sound of a bird or something. The temperature is not so high, but the moist air is tightly entangled throughout your body, causing discomfort.

I thought it was a bad place... but as I moved on, a big fallen tree appeared in front of me.

When Nil tried to get over the fallen tree lying on the ground, the place where Nil tried to hold hands moved.

Nil!

"Huh?!

I was shocked by my voice and pulled my hand into the fallen tree.

Insects with colors and patterns similar to fallen trees covered in moss surprised at their voices and ran away with a unique sound.

It looked like a spider with a scorpion tail. I've never seen an insect before, but if it's poison, if it's poison that doesn't poison it... you might think too much, but be careful in places like this, and don't be too careful.

"I didn't notice at all..."

"I didn't notice anything until I moved. This is the place. I'll try not to touch anything around me.

"Yes... Master!!

When Nil answers and looks at me, he pulls me with his eyes round and his shield on.

"Shah!"

Khhh!

Looking back, a bright red polka dot snake hung from the branch directly above and hit Nil's shield on a bright white body.

It's smaller than a meter in size, from what we've seen in the worm, but it looks dangerous anyway.

He couldn't take me down, and went back to the branch, but it was just a haircut.

"Come on... let's move on carefully..."

"Yes...."

Recognising strongly that they are predators, Nil and I raise our alert to MAX.

I thought I was good at hiding things, but compared to the hidden abilities of wild creatures, I cheated on children. Abandon self-esteem completely and proceed in a jungle with poor scaffolding with great care.

When I was walking around Mt. Kuroumi, I was in a situation where the scenery remained unchanged, but now I am afraid that the situation around me will change rapidly every time I go along.

"Master.

Nil stops and looks back at me.

"What's wrong?

"... can you hear me?

Stop your body from moving and listen to Nil's words.

As always, you can hear scratches of leaves and screams that you don't understand.

But behind that, there's definitely a hidden sound that you can't hear.

If I dare to express it in letters, is it sharp? It sounds like the sound of a metal blade rubbing together.

"Sure you can hear something.

"Where do you hear it?

"I don't know... is this sound coming any closer?

I feel that the sound of sharpness that you hear is gradually getting bigger.

It seems that the clear sound can be heard from the right hand side of the road as we proceed.

"What do you want to do?

"I don't know what it is... but the noise is moving, so it must be a living thing. Stay away from the bad guys and get over it.

"I see.

Like horror movies, I don't have any hobbies that are close to what might be dangerous for me. Start the movement so as not to be exposed to the direction of travel of the sharp sound.

Shari Shari...

…………

Shari Shari...

…………

Shari Shari...

"... isn't there a sound coming?

"You're definitely chasing me..."

Nil and I have weapons.

"Nil's not in good shape, so don't overdo it.

"Yes."

Nil holds his shield firmly while saying so.

Sharpshire... sharpshire...

It stops when the sound gets closer.

A nervous swallowed saliva squeaks his throat.

Watch as the leaves of the banana trees grow in thick, longitudinal foliage.

The leaves and trees make a dark shadow that I can't see well.

…………

………

Soon, the noise that should have been heard around you disappeared somewhere.

Shit! Shit!

From where I was watching, was it a giant... quack...?

The total length is about three meters. Two pieces grow from the left and right of the head with sharp corners like a curved double-edged sword, more than one meter long. A creature whose horns turned into swords.

That said, it seems unlikely that the corners are made of metal, and it is probably the same material as the crust that covers the whole body. The criterion for that judgment is that it has exactly the same color as the whole body in the hue of bright green and black striped patterns.

It seems that the corners can be opened and closed in the same way as the quartz, and every time it moves, the four corners rub against each other, making a sharp sound. Though the crust, it seems better to think of the hardness as metallic.

The torso is closer, thinner, and longer than a quail. Six legs came out, and the tip was in the shape of a hook nail.

"Something's coming out that looks bad..."

It's a monster I don't know.

The surrounding noise must have disappeared because other creatures fled this monster. I've never fought before, but it's not a good choice... it's definitely strong.

A small tentacle at the base of the horn moves irregularly.

Shari Shari...

Slowly... slowly move the six legs and come closer with Nil and me under control.

Unlike humans, for monsters and insects who always take their own lives to live, the act of attacking and eating something is always next to the danger of being eaten.

Much more pure and sophisticated killing than facing adventurers around.

Jakin!

A giant quack that opens four corners loudly with a loud sound and kicks the ground. All the plants in the path are cut down by their horns.

"Don't touch the horns!

Yes!

Nil and I split up and ran. Nil slips through the corners, I jump up and avoid the corners, then kick the tree next to it and turn around behind the giant quail.

"It's magical!!

Nil deploys a magical formation, releasing intermediate wind magic and rumble cutters to the quagmire, with more than ten wind blades hitting the quagmire from the side.

Garrigari!

"No! They'll play it!

He was aiming for his torso, but the blade of the wind was thrown and he flew deeper as he cut down a nearby tree.

"Aim for the legs!

Nil turned his magic team to his feet in response to my voice.

Gagging!

It is, but it seems difficult to penetrate that crust with a lamble cutter. Even with an elongated leg, it ends with a light scratch.

Rather than preventing it, it appears to be parrying, but it's not working either way.

Jakin!!

"Nh!!

The quail rotates its body one hundred and eighty degrees, and shakes its horns toward Nir like a flash of flash.

Nil rolls sideways and runs away from the corner, and now he comes straight towards me.

"You cheating bastard!

Zann! Jakin!

They use their horns skillfully and attack me looking for gaps as they step back.

The attack itself is faster than good. I know exactly how to crush the other party's escape route.

"Master!

Fuck!

Nil will cover us with Wall Rock. The Wall Lock, which I created to push out of my feet, blew up the quack and kept me away for a while.

Sharishari!

"I said cheating. Are you mad?

The quagmire is coming at me, not the magic nil. You instinctively realized that I was the leader. You don't seem to want to take your aim off me.

Jakin!

"I'll take your legs!

When the quack shakes his body large, he turns to the side and runs a thin blade through his leg.

Zuba!

One of the three that were growing to the left was cut from the root, and the other was cut in half and rolled to the ground.

Sharishari!

Move the four horns a few times and get away from me. It seems that my vigilance was heightened by my deep hands.

Shari Shari.....

Half of the cut feet are twitching.

"It's hard..."

Nil stood behind her diagonally and shouted.

"Hardness alone is fine, but my body is ready to parry no matter where it gets attacked. That's the trouble.

The overall curved shape constantly changes the angle of the body. Ranged attacks are almost nullified if they are not well targeted.

"Nil, just pull your attention with Aquaspire.

"I see.

Nil takes a few steps back before he starts preparing for Aquaspire.

Stupid!

Suddenly open the back crust and release the clear, thin wings from the inside, buttering and winging.

The stirred wind pushes away the nearby grass and leaves, falling one after the other. Sounds and winds as if a helicopter were flying. I don't know because I've never been on a ride, but...

"I will restrain you!

When Nil's Aquaspire hits the quail's torso, it loses its grip and posture, but it doesn't get shot down.

"That's it! Shoot again and again!

Yes!

The quack still moves around aiming only at me.

Jakin!

"Nh!!

It leads you to places that are difficult to move. The quail opens a big corner and tries to skip my neck.

Gagga!

"Master!

Super Nice Timing Cover!

Nil's Aquaspire disoriented me, and the horns of the quagmire are off track to kill me.

Without missing that great opportunity, my thin sword was drawn into the corners of the quail as if it had been prescribed to go there from the beginning.

Zann!!

The thin sword cuts straight from the head to the buttocks.

Shit! Shit!

While flying, the quail splits left and right and crashes (hard) as it knocks down the trees.

Shari... shari...

I've been moving corners and feet for a few seconds, but it immediately stops moving and doesn't sting.

"Is it over...?

"I don't think you're living in two.

"That's right.

Unknown monsters are scary because they don't know what properties they have. The possibility of an attack the moment you turn your back thinking you're dead cannot be said to be zero.

"You were strong..."

"When you become an unknown monster, you don't have any countermeasures or any information.

"Unknown monsters will appear in the future...?

"Rather, this is the treasure trove of these monsters. This environment where no one comes and the trees are raw. It would be paradise for the monsters.

Looking down at the giant quack, I feel chilly about what I'm saying. From now on, I imagined that there was a monster with no information and no information.

"Yes, let's go.

Yes...

Step on your feet before you can't move due to fear.

As you go through the jungle for a while, there is a good smell that you have never smelled before. Forced analogy is citrus refreshment and a faint smell, a sweet smell like roasting sugar, and a slight smell of rot in the smell. Originally, it seems good to feel uncomfortable with the smell of decomposition, but somehow I feel that the smell is in perfect harmony.

"What does it smell like?

"Maybe it's fruity.

When I push my foot so that it can attract me to the smell, I get a little open.

Strangely, there are no plants growing in the surrounding metres, and the mud (muddy) on the ground is rounded out.

In the middle, plants in the form of skins grow together. The height ranges from about one to two meters, with dark purple fruit at the tip of the slightly sagging tip and branches.

"Is that the cause..."

The result of the appraisal magic remains the same as the other plants, in the dense forest... But it looks suspicious. It is more suspicious than ever.

It's suspicious.

Nil seems to feel the same way.

"In the world I lived in, there were plants that attracted and preyed on things by smell, so maybe that kind of thing.

When it comes to insectivorous plants, it's probably famous for sea urchins and sea urchins.

There are also botanical monsters in this world, and I am not surprised to hear that plants grow in front of me. If I touch it, it gets entangled...

When thinking about detours, from a slightly distant position, several Brutal Wolf sniffed off the smell of the ground and accidentally came into the mud.

"There are monsters like Brutal Wolf, too.

"If you're a terrestrial monster, you might want to think of everything as a habitat.

One of the Brutal Wolf approached the plant in question and sniffed at the tip of his nose several times. And then you put the fruit in your mouth. The image of carnivore is strong when said to be a wolf, but it is known that the wolf of the other world also eats fruit such as blueberries. Let's worry about that plant now, rather than the knowledge of wolves.

Blue tall wolf eats delicious dark purple fruit with its mouth.

However, there are no signs of plants moving.

Is this how I feel...?

The other Blue Tall Wolf came one after the other, and opened their cheeks.

"... you're not moving, are you?

"You cared too much?

Bagowwwww!!

I suddenly almost arrived at the buttocks.

From the outer perimeter of the area where the surrounding grass is not growing, that is, from the ground in front of our eyes, something like a latticed root rises a few meters high and completely traps the Blue Tall Wolf.

The mud and chaos are falling from the waiting roots and bouncing around.

Surprised by the sound, Brutal Wolf immediately ran away from the plants in a direction with trees, but there was no escape for the surrounded Brutal Wolf.

The raised lattice-shaped root closes like a drawstring and slowly returns to the ground.

Naturally, the blunt wolves that were trapped inside slowly dragged into the ground, along with the lattice-shaped roots and the central plants.

Blue Tall Wolf walks into the mud with a loud voice.

After the voice disappears and there is nothing left in the open area, a plant with a good smell slowly rises from the middle. And from under the ground in front of you, the grid-shaped roots also come up to the surface.

It seems that the area around the plant was a bottomless swamp, with a lattice-shaped root on the surface that would allow it to walk.

In other words, when I stepped into this mud, that plant understood its existence. I was satisfied with the reason why there were no plants on the ground. Definitely, that's a monster plant.

"... let's detour.

"... yes.

Nil and I slipped away and bypassed the scene.

... this jungle is too scary...

A few hours after entering the jungle. It's about noon.

"I still don't know what kind of place this is, and I'd like to get a place to sleep early.

"Wouldn't it be nice to open it if you could?

"I wish I could... if I could just look at that plant..."

"That's right..."

Both of us trembled and remembered what we saw earlier.

"If you can't open it, maybe it's a high place.

When I look up, the nil is caught and I look up.

There are also many tall trees in the jungle, some of which are taller than the others.

"There are so many monsters here. There will definitely be some nocturnal monsters. In that case, places with good prospects are not safe either.

"I see... what do you want to do? Ready now?

"I don't think there are tall trees ahead... Nil isn't feeling well, and I'll get some beds early today even in the sense of watching the jungle.

"I see.

We chose tall, thick trees that look like cedars, but have more trunk irregularities and fewer leaves than cedars. Twenty meters above a trunk, there are some thick branches lying next to it, and on top of that, it seems like you can sleep with a simple scaffold.
