Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

Episode 29: A Strong Shortcut to the Foot of the Mountain

We'll be there soon!

Roger that. Be careful.

Stop the work and stand up.

When you hear clearly, you feel a slightly heavier vibration like a ground sound.

"- Okay."

Walk through the tent and go out.

Touch the surrounding wire and use the technique that was registered in the slot.

"'Endurance enhancement'"

LP is consumed and pale light strokes the wire surface.

There is no change in appearance, but this should make the wire surprisingly tough for a certain amount of time.

I don't have time to rest.

I'm heading in the direction Letty reported, and I'm going to line up Tiger Bassami at the entrance.

I'll do the same for now. "Enhanced durability"

It also strengthens the tiger bass, which is about half buried in the mud. This will last a little longer.

However, the LP has been cut by about 20% using a series of techniques.

I'll go back to the tent and wait there.

If you stand here within the confines of the campsite, the LP will begin to recover visibly.

"All right, all right. It's working well enough."

Seeing that, I smile alone.

With this, we will be able to withstand the use of lact art.

"Mr. Reggie!

At that time, the voice reaches from the other side of the fog.

"There you are."

Raise the tent and create an entrance for the two of you to escape.

The strength of the wire and tiger is increasing.

It's a lot of stuff.

"Reggyyyy!

"This way! Let me in."

Letty came running with the lact on her back.

There was also an oily toad behind it.

When Letty found the goal, she increased her speed and threw herself at the frog for a moment.

But soon afterwards, the frogs also chased after each other, making them thin.

"Hmm!? Letty!"

"Hmm!?

I waited for them to speak up.

Oily Tod was swelling his mouth as he tried to stretch out his long tongue.

A direct hit will disrupt the situation.

"Frozen Arrows"

"Ghhh!?

An ice arrow is thrown at the foot of the frog.

It was instantaneous, but it froze the water surface and disturbed the movement of the frog's feet.

"Lacto! I'm impressed."

"Good luck running. I can't afford LP anymore."

Letty nodded deeply and quickly.

For a moment, the unbalanced Oily Tod glanced at the two and resumed the pursuit.

But...

"I'm in!

The tiger splash jumps up with a huge splash.

It bites and fastens to the forefoot of the squirrel and frog.

"Gheva!?

With a mixed noise of confusion and anger, the frog twists and bursts.

A wall of wire made a noise with Gashangashan to the left and right to restrain the giant body.

"Lacto, can you shoot from inside the tent?

I can afford it.

Letty, who rolled into the camp, was kneeling tightly.

In contrast, Lacto has a vibrant expression that sparkles brightly.

"All right, I'll catch up with you at once."

That said, she starts chanting.

It was synonymous with the countdown to death of the poor giant frog.

"Hey, it works amazingly well."

Lacto, who pierced the frog with three series of arrows, lowered his hips firmly to the wooden chair and made a sound.

"Wow, I feel like running after frogs is kind of a loser."

Next to that, Letty was exhausted and hit a fire, folding her long ears.

"You think Letty's the main hunter, except for the oily toad?

Well, that's true.

I speak up as I proceed with the dismantling of the Oily Tod.

While nodding, she seemed unconvinced.

"Both of you have the same level of skill uplift, and Letty is better at walking."

"Well, if you can chase me like that, I'll go up!

Lacto's comfort (?) Letty swells her cheeks.

Certainly Letty's growth in her walking skills has been remarkable, and if she competes in the swamp, she will have a good match with me, who is swinging extremely fast.

Or is it that I am too far from my base to develop any skills at all?

"So, how many frogs were there?

"Er... It's just the tenth one."

"Isn't that enough to hunt? It was called a field test, but it's a normal level of picking."

He was hunting quite a few without knowing.

My inventory is packed with a lot of frog material, and I don't think this will fit into the campset.

In the meantime, Letty is right. The results of the field test will be more than enough.

"Just going back to camp feels so good that Arts can shoot without worrying about the LP. It seems like a habit."

"I'm glad you like it."

Lacto, in particular, seems to have fallen quite in love with the camp and is in a good mood, swinging his torso on a wooden chair.

It must be quite pleasant for her to be able to keep beating arts to infinity.

Well, shall we withdraw it?

Just after the dismantling of the oily toad, the giant body disappears into particles of light.

Confirm that Letty and the others are outside the tent and retrieve the encampment.

A fairly huge mass is stored in a small camp set, which is stored in a mysterious space called inventory, and the feeling of oppression disappears at once.

Collect the wires and prepare for departure.

After that, you're going to the foothills of the cattle.

Lacto says as he takes out his bow.

I rebound my backpack and nodded as I showed the map.

"Oh, once back in the Beast Forest, head north from there."

The field stretches north of the Beginning Grasslands, but at the same time it is adjacent to the Beast Forest.

As a result, we will continue on the path without roads, but crossing the forest can be significantly shorter in distance.

"Alright, let's go cheer up!

Letty, who was completely rejuvenated, raised her fist and shouted.

Me and Lacto will follow along the same path.

Enter the woods and pave the way to the gap between the branches and the trees where the pigeons are intertwined. I'm kind of a pioneer.

"Somehow I remembered we were pioneers for a long time."

Lacto thought the same thing about me, and she walked in front of me and did nothing like that.

"Can you make roads in places like this?"

Holding down the jumping cymbal with his hand, he frowned.

More paved roads would make it easier to get around and go hunting.

"I've never heard of such a skill before."

Letty, who was standing at the head and swinging her hammer around, turned to us and said.

Yeah, she's pretty trustworthy because she's collecting information.

"Road pavement. I wonder if it will be a productive skill."

"Maybe I'll make asphalt. So, blacksmith or something?

Three people who are not very familiar with production. Flowers the conversation peacefully by arranging intertwined speculations of ideals and delusions.

"Aaah! But this forest is so dense!

Suddenly Letty barks.

Speaking of what I was staring at by twitching my temples, it was a thick fallen tree that suddenly appeared.

She beats it up like a parental vendetta, but it's not as strong or as broken as it seems.

"Well, well, Letty, back off a bit."

Lacto walks in front of such a girl.

Arrange the chants (cords) with exhilaration and release the ice arrows.

"... that?

However, although the ice arrow stuck to the trunk, it did not reach crushing, and it sprayed in time.

Wow, what should I do?

"What am I supposed to do, just go around?

Behind the frustrating lettuce and puzzled lact, raise your hand gently.

After they saw me, they were silent. After that, she nodded with a beautiful smile.

I don't like it.

"Why!?

They put up their weapons and resumed chanting.

In front of me, wounded, there was enough violence to make the fallen tree pathetic.

Oh, Mr. Reggie, it's about time.

Well, if we keep going straight, it'll be quick.

……

A few minutes later. We finally passed through the forest and stepped into the open meadow.

The grassy meadow stretches beneath the penetrating blue sky. On the other side, there is a spiritual peak sitting high enough to make the back of the neck hurt.

This is the foothills of the cattle.

As the name suggests, there are plenty of cows.

Letty, standing next to me, looks at the meadow with her palm on her forehead.

There were two kinds of energies, a muscular cow with brown fur, and a cow with white and black mackerel patterns - the so-called Holstein - eating the grass at ease.

All right, let's stretch it out.

"I'll do my best!

"Yeah? Wait a minute."

As the magnificent landscape warms her heart, the girls on the left and right raise the inflammation and roll their arms.

I realized it a little late, and they were running before I could stop them.

"No, stop it!

A voice similar to my scream is slightly slower. [M]

The two attacks had already been unleashed.
