"Again, I would like to explain this survey."
We were gathered in yesterday's tent.
As yesterday, Maru plays the facilitator.
"All I ask of you is exploration, not total aggression.Our goal is to identify the threats and treasures, accurately understand the former, and retrieve the latter.This does not mean, however, that we must not engage in complete aggression. "
Even if the monster of the original dungeon goes out, it can't operate for as long as the magic body (avatar) is thin.
However, it is possible to reach destruction in that short time, and it is quite dangerous when it reaches dragon level.
It is imperative to check what kind of monsters will emerge and whether there is any nature of going outside.
At present, there are no such signs, but we have only managed to attack the second layer.Don't be alarmed.
Items acquired in the original dungeon can be taken out.So she wants to take it home if possible.
"Today's goal will be to explore and tackle the third floor and make the safe room temporary.The first team of investigators have set foot here and we will be dispatched.Of note is the variety of monsters that emerge.Speaking of kinds alone, it also surpasses the castle of the demon king. "
Dungeons usually have the character of a tendency.
It can be consolidated with monsters who are good at fire attributes, or it can be operated with the concept of "beginner dungeon".
Demon King Castle is the home of monsters, where the true demon King lives, so there are a variety of monsters.
In the case of the original dungeon, it depends on the mood of the spirit using the magic accumulator.
Therefore, the spirits' favorites are overflowing, and there are many kinds like this one.
There is no concern for entertainment.
"This dungeon is also expected to have a 'Learn the Attacker' character.This is believed to be the reason for the delay in exploration by the first group, and the fact that the monsters appearing in the second group were all of the species that were incompatible with the members of the first group.Though we managed to break through, it was judged difficult to explore further.This is how we decided to put in the second team. "
The first floor is the forest area.Orcs, goblins, double-headed demon dogs, gum and black demon dogs, wooden sub beast Trent, horse sub beast Bacon with two horns, and elves.
The first team broke through these.Perhaps the Spirit was watching.I would have expected the assailant to exist if I had imitated the dungeon, even if I had made it in my spare time.
The second floor consists of the mine wind area.
First, restrictions on road width and height prevent large numbers of people from travelling.
Before the countless branches, the first team will divide their manpower.
Coming out are Covolt, Living Dead (Zombie), Skeleton Knight (Skeleton), Rich [Ghost Magician] Hold, Big Mist-like Beast Sandworm, Bloodsucking Bat, Arakne, Ghost (Reis), and Golem.
For example, if a ghost (lace) hits a group of people without [White Wizard], it is a threat.
Physical attacks, normal magic attacks don't work, and the black magic on the other side gets molested.As long as the whole thing is not so strong, it is extremely troublesome because it comes together and attacks.
That's where the living zombies and Skeletons lead Rich.
In addition, the sandworms attack and eat the rear guards, such as wizards, from behind or beside them.
The swordsman's attack is played by the Golem, and the shield is entangled in Arakne's thread.
Those lacking magic are sucked out by countless bloodsucking bats.
If the field is disrupted by various monsters, I can't hold back the raid by the covolt herd.
"The variety of monsters is perhaps to see as many battles as possible.I mean, to get him to cut out his hand. "
Some people nod at my remarks. [M]
"I feel the same way.Know what's in our hands, then work out a way to defeat it.... it looks like some kind of Demon King army staff. "
Ex says.
Arthur puts his hand on his chin and takes a thoughtful approach.
"If Lemegeton is studying adventurers from past offensive videos, did the Spirit use the first layer to get information from the Survey Team?If there's a difference between Lemegeton and the Spirit... "
"A Remegeton that takes into account the victory and entertainment of the Demon King army... Unlike you, the Spirit is doing nothing but whimsical nuisance."
Mira-san told me to take over.
Ex and Arthur nod.A little smiling.
"Mira-sama is right, but that's why I can say it's troublesome.Because the spiritual existence that you can enjoy is how Mr. Lemegeton intercepts us.It's also the magic of nature. "
"Remegeton does it with members of a mostly stationary Demon King Army, but it is highly likely that this Spirit is playing with the next layer to match the Attacker.Speaking of cards, it means more than the Demon King Army. "
Merlin puts her arms together to lift her full-bodied chest and joyfully distorts her lips.
The second team seemed to be aware of the trouble of the dungeon once again due to the specific comparison target.
That sounds kind of weird to me... being Lemegeton.
The third floor is the ice cave area.
Here, the first wave of annihilation and nearby damage lasted for several days, and the members decided it was impossible to break through.
"Fortunately, there doesn't seem to be any changes in area characteristics or monsters appearing.I can't deny any more possibilities. "
Even if you dive on the first floor again, it will remain in the forest area and the monster's expression will not change significantly.
The original dungeon belongs to the Spirit, so if you can get rid of humans, you can modify the first layer.
By not doing so, I'm sure you're enjoying your strategy.
I don't want to crush it, I want to defeat it.
"Is that why you have a rich [job title (job)] for both people and people?Isn't it fun to point at our weaknesses, Ex? "
In Merlin's words, Ex laughs back a little late.
"... sure.If we can overcome the weaknesses analyzed by the Spirit, we can't go higher. "
"That's right. Let's use it instead."
Merlin's positive remarks also make the air slightly brighter.
"Fufu, that's Miss Merlin.…… I explained it to you on the journey………………………………………………………………………………………………………… "
I'm an adventurer nerd, but I'm not really familiar with the original dungeon.
Once or twice in the past, I've heard reports of discoveries and exploration.
The rest will be commissioned and explored somewhere like this, so there is not much information that the general public can know.
So I asked Maru to explain to me how to attack the original dungeon.
It was Fellow and Mar who won the expedition this time, but what was missing was the experience of the original dungeon strategy.
How important is the technical knowledge that is built by the accumulation of experience?
To put it very harshly, I had the experience of "taking black magic has a negative effect", so "what should I do" "[Black Magic] first? If the number is small, it won't be a big deal, so can I leave it? It seems like black magic is flying magic, but can't it be prevented like other attacks? If the magic hits and activates, why don't you wrap up your magic armor?'I have come to the conclusion that I was able to prevent it,' and a useful technique called resistance (resist) emerged.
Because of our predecessors' trials and mistakes, our times can fly it and move like 'Resist black magic'.
However, the original dungeon is difficult to accumulate and inherit because the organization in charge changes at that time or because the difficulty of attacking is greatly changed by the Spirit's personality in the first place.
Turning to Maru, he stood in front of everyone and opened his mouth.
First of all...
◇
Don't deploy the camp before the dungeon because if the monster comes out and goes wild, it could destroy equipment and more.
It's over when the Cocoon, which transfers spirit to the Magic Body (Avatar), is destroyed.
We will have to fight with our own lives and may lose our lives.
Therefore, before the dungeon, it was decided to set up a camp at the middle of the village and the dungeon, while retaining some personnel.
Let us know if anything happens so we can deal with the monsters with the Magic Body (Avatar).
"Well...."
I'll check my gear out of the cocoon. [M]Now I am [Black Mage] Reme.
A black robe and a take-up wand.And this time, I'm hanging my sword from my waist.
Surprisingly, no one, including Mira-san, will touch on this.
It's just kind of a warm gaze.
... from someone who knows my dreams, I might be able to guess.
"Mr. Reme, is this gear right for you?"
[White Wizard] party member, Jos called out.
He puts his hair on his ear and shows me the device.
It is a tool that is hooked onto the ear and has an important part that fits neatly into the hole in the ear.
"Yeah, it's okay."
"Thank you very much. Still... Reme is amazing after all.I thought it was a tag tournament, but I was free to think about it. "
"... it's just an application."
The glare of respect dazzles me and I smile bitterly. [M]
"It's great to think of that.That's not modesty. "
"Mira-san is right...!
"Jose-kun is an honest and good boy.He's a boy, so there's no danger... he's a boy, right?
"Eh, what are you talking about?... do you look like a woman?
"I'm sorry, I have a neutral face."
"You do have a pretty face, though. It doesn't have to do with sex."
Join Mr. Citry.
"Ugh... it's a man.Ask everyone who entered the hot spring with you.Yes, Lemé was there, wasn't he?
Jose looks at us with a troubled face.
Because Mr. Fulcus is a magical body (avatar), he hasn't eaten anything, but from his blurry appearance, I can see that he is thinking about rice.
It's about the sword teacher. I've had a lot of practice, so I've come to understand this sort of thing.
"Hmm? Oh, yeah."
While responding to Joss, I think.
... I thought our party was going to be fine.
In a good way, as usual.
You can't see tension or anxiety because you're the one who controls it.
Can you do it, Clan Leader?
"Fu, it's harder to lead this member and lose."
Arthur and Ex are calming down.
"Oh, it's Maru. This chest hurts when I think your skin will be exposed before this number of adults.I wonder if this is love or exclusivity. "
Marguerite instantly replaces various equipment [Summoner].In the process, you become naked for a moment.
"Thank you for your concern.But all those who gather here are certain of their abilities.I wonder if anyone is immature enough to be distracted by a woman's nudity. "
"Do I look like I'm licking around?
Merlin, you can't do this anymore.
The conversation between Merlin and Mar is normal.
By the way, I don't think Marlin is really after Maru like that for someone other than herself at the party...It sticks to me a lot, and lately, I feel like I'm being targeted by members of the Demon King Castle.
Ex and Arthur have a conversation with the remaining Minotaur man: "I'll take care of them" and "I'll take care of it."
He's the shield that protects Marlin and Mar.
EXPARTS, REME PARTIES - unlike usual, there is no limit to heroes being leaders - several non-combatants accompany the other three sets of five parties.
Officials from the country attending the expedition, Fellow's film crew, and others who are proud to help you carry something big and heavy.
"Let's go, let's play with the spirits."
Everyone answers Ex's voice as they raise their voice and nod.
Then we touched the prepared metallurgical recording stone and moved it to a safe room connecting the second and third floors.
The safe room felt like a large room made of dirt, but there was no sign of a monster intrusion, so I was able to confirm safety immediately.
... are you still making some reference to modern dungeons?
Ah, can everybody hear me?
I can hear Ex's voice from the device that fits in my ear.
Looks like it's working.Now then... uh, push here... "
I can't hear you.But I'm sure the members of the party will still hear you.
Everyone's Magic Body (Avatar) has extra equipment for communication.
Lemegeton usually sends instructions and advice to other layers of monsters from the video lab through the communication device.
Otherwise, the dungeon may give instructions to the monster in the same way.
For example, if there was a vast forest area, it would be difficult to efficiently discover a group of five adventurers without any information.
We can't just hold the monster in the entrance and boss area, and if the Adventurer doesn't pass through it even if we let him wait in a specific location, his power will be wasted.
In the first place, viewers aren't having fun either.Just footage wandering through the woods.
That's why we need to tell the monsters what the adventurers are up to in order to attack the harassed dungeons.
This time, use it to communicate with each other.
There are two channels, exclusive to all clans and parties.
This was made under the condition that it would move on a party-by-party basis in an emergency.
It can be used to communicate with other parties and to interact with party members even if you get separated.
It is also possible to communicate with investigators in the camp if it is a clan channel.
Original Dungeon Surveys used to employ only adventurers, so they tend to increase the number of people naturally and in the traditional way.
Some of them may have been included in the previous investigation team, but there is no sharing or inheritance of information, so I don't know.
This dungeon seemed to have the effect of breaking up the attackers, so I thought it would be useful to establish a means of communication.
"This is interesting.I wonder if it could be used in a normal offensive.What do you think, Arthur? "
"It's convenient to have a conversation even with a low voice, but I don't know if it's easy to understand for the audience."
"You can talk later or edit it."
"But whispering and shouting make a difference in movement, right?I can't ignore the visual information that screaming motion gives the viewer. "
"Hmm...."
There is such a conversation between Ex and Arthur.
"Okay, did everybody try it?It's time to go. The passage continues for a while, and the third floor is beyond the door.It seems that the first team was hardly able to investigate, and there is little information.Let's tighten up and go. "
With Ex at the forefront, we move on.
The corridor changed from earth color to ice texture.
The magic body (avatar) doesn't feel painful, but it does feel it.
From the tremors of the body, it can be seen that the temperature is quite low.
By the way, Mr. Fulcus is joining the fight without armor.Because of the size of the aisle, we can't get through in armor.
But I also have a way to fight with my armor.
"Now, this is the third floor."
Ex opens the door.
The freezing wind that attacks us.
Fantastic sights in sight.
I heard some people murmuring "beautiful..."
Indeed, it was very beautiful.
Big cave made of ice.There is light coming in from somewhere, blue and bright.
If this is a sightseeing scenery, you can enjoy it and be impressed.
But this is a dungeon survey.Even though the scaffolding is bad, the temperature is such that the body trembles.The monster has destroyed the first team several times, so we need to be vigilant.
We proceed with caution.
There was a change just outside the entrance.
"Come on out now."
A crowd of people appeared - no.
You look like a wholly hairy, pure white person, but this is...
A monster that mimics what used to be called a snowman.
That's not the only threat.
"Down there!
Me and Merlin were the first to notice.
Almost simultaneously, Ex, Arthur, and Furcus reacted.
Me and Merlin approached the magic reaction, and the three of them felt a sense of killing.
The ice that stood at the EXPARTY and my party broke apart and something jumped out of the sea (,,).
Avoidance was done.
This area is not a cave in an iceberg, but rather a sea ice mass.
It was the dragon that popped out.No, one dragon's head.
According to the report, nine necks were confirmed.
Probably a multi-headed water dragon - Hydra.
But this is the first time I've come out right after I got in.
"Non-combatants evacuate to the other side of the door...!
Ex's instructions.
If you're imitating a dungeon strategy, it should be safe there.
- No, wait.
"Wow ahhhh...!?
The scream of the investigator.
Through the ice - a thick tentacle was holding up the investigator.
It's not one or two.Not one person has been captured.
All non-combatants.
"Mr. Fulcus....!
By the time she pointed her finger at the door as she screamed, her actions were over.
Her black spear spreads in countless branches, grabbing all the tentacles that captured the non-combatants.
"It looks delicious when baked."
Fulcus whispers.
"... were you aiming to eliminate non-combatants...?You want a pure battle..... "
Arthur mutters while cutting off Hydra's neck.
If you're enjoying fighting monsters with your attackers, the non-combatants are definitely in your way.We'll need men to protect them, and we'll have to match them to the slowest travelers.
I'm sorry, I made a mistake.
Three of Hydra's faces eject water from her mouth, but Ex's shadow spreads like a shield to prevent it.
And Ex, who jumped out of the shadow shield, jumped and cut off three necks.
He wrapped his shadow around the sword and instantly stretched out his sword.
Hydra shook her body in surprise, but regenerated immediately.
"I don't think so, Ex.You did your best.Bad spirits just read it.In the first place, where else would you let him escape?We have no choice but to stiffen it or let it escape, and it's underwater where it stiffens?You did the best you could by turning the men who protected them into battle. "
"Merlin...."
If Ex hadn't let the non-combatants down, the snowman herd would have swallowed us more.
All the combatants were aggressively focused on the battle because they no longer had to be protected.
In fact, other parties are targeting snowmen.
"Ah, you know.We're on the side of justice.- Reme, I need your help.I don't know if it's an octopus or a squid, but I'll bake it exactly as Lord Furcus wanted. "
Yeah.
"Leave the tentacles to them, the others to the snowman.If you remember someone, let's go hunting for water dragons. "
Everyone moves on to Ex's words.
The decapitation of the tentacles completes the evacuation of the non-combatants beyond the door.
Just in case, I need you to come back to the safe room.Only the shooting crew remains stubborn... well, it's the worst way to get out, and you can do whatever you want.
The tentacles were already regenerating.
"Jose-kun. Give Marlin and I the" Increased Thinking Power, "and Fulcus and Mira the" Increased Attack. "Can you do that? "
"Leave it to me....!I won't keep it that long...!
"That's all right, I'll be right there."
"Reme-kun. Where's Citry?
"Please charm all snowmen."
"Ahah, you're being reckless.I can, but... "
Mira-san
"Yes, I'll cut it all off.I won't let Lemé touch one finger. "
"Thank you... Jose-san and Merlin, please."
Mr. Fulcus, who put his spear back, saw me flicker. [M]
"Mr. Fulcus... have you ever fished?
"... all - you - can - eat of nature, good"
The spear stretches. Now, with one, it gets entangled in the tentacle and approaches the main unit.
"Ahahah, you're fishing a big sea beast with magic tools...!It's as interesting as ever. "
While laughing, there is a tremendous amount of magic flowing into Merlin's wand.
It's the same with me.
Monsters who realized what Mr. Fulcus was aiming for are rampaging around and reaching for our tentacles - it's no use.
"I won't forgive you for touching Reme with your filthy tentacles."
Mira-san's innumerable blood blades cut off a giant tentacle beautifully.
Gotcha.
Goo, when Mr. Fulcus put his strength into it, the earth swayed.
The land of ice cracks, crushes, and overflows with sea water.
- A giant squid sub beast, Clarken, jumped into the air.
"It's regenerative."
"Ah, so let's take it out with a single hit."
When I hit my biggest Magic Defense Down, Merlin hit a giant flamethrower.
Clarken raised the demon and burned out in an instant.
The tentacles that fell around me also broke and returned to their magic.
"... baked too much"
Mr Fulcus looks a little sad.
"I'm sorry, Lord Furcus.I don't know, when I get back to the city, I'm going to have a great seafood treat. "
"Go for a drink?"
I was worried about Mr. Fulcus, who was easily caught by food, and about Merlin's wallet, which she said she would buy.
But now more than that...
Next...
Think. To get through this situation with this member -
How about these kids next time? I hope they'll have more fun than before.
I felt like I heard a voice for a moment.
I could gaze around, but I couldn't confirm the presence of the Lord of Voices.
