Originally, it was Selene who would not want to mix a word with Meteor, but now the situation was the situation.
With just four people, they fell into a suspicious space.
But one of them can’t even control his body properly, and the other is just an idiot.
The only person I could talk to here was Yuseong.
Selene was the first to talk to Yoosung, with the calculation that it wouldn’t cause any harm right away, even if it was a little reluctant and scary.
“In the cabin…… What happened? You spoke as if you knew we would come here.”
Yooseong lightly shook his head.
“I knew I was going to move, but I didn’t know where or how. I didn’t even know it would break up like this. All I can say now is that the world is in danger and here is danger.”
“What is that…….”
The time when Selene, who was dumbfounded, tried to ask lightly.
Cruella struggled to open her mouth.
“The explanation… later…… !”
Her arms trembled and she barely pointed her finger in front of her.
There was obviously nothing there, but there was an ominous feeling as if something would appear at any moment.
“Something is coming… !”
Now, Cruella lightly touches the meteor as if telling her to stop.
As the meteor fell, she staggered as if she was about to fall, but managed to hold her posture and draw her sword.
Her eyes were unfocused and her cold sweat was soaking through her hair.
She was so hot that she felt the illusion of steam rising from her body.
In her monologue when playing as her Cruella, it came out that it wouldn’t be strange if she lost her mind right away, but she was desperately holding on so as not to collapse.
She really thought she was a great mind, but she told her that if she hadn’t had that level of spirit, she wouldn’t have secured her current position.
“… ….”
Hearing Cruella’s warning, Selene looked ahead with a serious expression.
A trail in the woods that seems to have been paved by someone.
Beyond…… The grotesque shimmering shadows were approaching.
“Hey! Something strange is coming!”
Allen shouted while striking a fighting pose.
Strange.
That is strange.
The black energy slowly approaching after forming a human silhouette made me feel like I shouldn’t get involved.
Selene frowned as well and pulled out her wand, encrusted with purple mineral, from within the robe she was wearing.
“What is that?!”
“Even I haven’t heard a proper explanation, but one thing is certain: it’s an enemy to fight. I heard that you can’t return to the original world unless you kill them.”
“Eww, I can’t believe that. Not even a curse would work on those guys…….”
No, it will work.
Yoosung muttered to himself.
Their name is ‘Concentration of Thoughts’.
It was created from the thoughts of those who disappeared from being eaten by this eroded land, and almost 99% of those who take the form of shadows like that are weak.
It can be said that they are in charge of the position of miscellaneous mobs in the eroded land.
Although it gave off a very uneasy aura, the reality was just a lump of experience points that could be easily defeated.
“I can’t. I have no choice but to protect it! I’m not afraid of ghosts!”
With clenched fists, Allen showed off his confidence whether it was courage or recklessness and took the lead of the group.
He hates to use his hair.
All decisions are made within 3 seconds.
He was the type of person with no countermeasures who covered up his body by constantly training his body.
However, because he is basically righteous, his personality has won the favor of many players.
As I said before, what Allen prefers is a human similar to himself.
It means that I want to be close to someone who doesn’t like to use my head annoyingly, trains my body with grit, and doesn’t bend to outside pressure.
‘Okay, let’s get some points this time.’
Yooseong walked forward and stood side by side with Allen.
Then he gave me a line that seemed moderately good.
“We will fight together. It’s not that I don’t have enough guts to stand still and be protected.”
Hearing that, Allen smiled contentedly.
“Yes, if you are a man, you should. Then I go first!”
Then he suddenly sped up and ran forward.
“I don’t know what those guys are, but I can beat them with guts!”
While scattering unsympathetic lines to the crowd.
‘Your temper is impatient. You could wait until it comes…….’
While I was thinking about that, I saw a stare staring at me from behind.
When she turned her head, she could see Selene, a timid and cautious girl. She was staring at her with the look on her face.
Wouldn’t you, too, run like that without a countermeasure against an unknown enemy? Seems to be asking
Yooseong turned her body and stared at Selene’s face.
“Since I am blind, I am not very good at distinguishing facial expressions…… I would like to ask if Are you worried? Do you think I will recklessly rush after that cadet?”
“… ….”
Nod.
Selene nodded her head quietly.
To that, Yooseong answered by raising the corner of her mouth.
“I’m sorry then. I was just about to.”
“Ah… ….”
As Yooseong turned around and ran away without hesitation, Selene could only let out her sigh.
It was absurd for her to think she was living her common sense.
‘I knew what those things were, and I was so fearless…… !’
Turbuck-
“The mandible… Whoa…….”
Selene looked around at her voice and couldn’t help but startle again.
She is a woman who exudes viscous flesh while glaring in front of her while sweating like crazy.
Cruella tried to fight with her sword firmly held even though it seemed difficult to stand still.
‘How can everyone burn their fighting spirit in a situation like this… ….’
Whatever she was like, she couldn’t just sit still and watch.
You have no choice but to try it!
–
“These guys are weaker than I thought.”
Muttered Allen, shaking her fists.
“I agree.”
Yooseong also agreed leisurely.
Since the aggregates of thoughts were not living things, the meteor’s slash went in as it was.
Currently, Meteor’s specifications are truly overbalanced thanks to time stop and Ether Blade.
As long as the damage wasn’t negative, it was enough to defeat the first act boss alone.
[ End of battle ]
[ You have obtained 17 aggregates of experience. ]
17 Pieces.
This is normal, but it feels a bit salty, perhaps because I’ve been playing non-normally so far.
‘Is it because of communist distribution?’
It’s good to think of Wizardry Caliber’s fighting style as roughly similar to that of a famous zombie game.
Isn’t it called Left 4 Dead?
Form a party of 4 people to block the incoming waves.
Then, reach a certain point and carry out the mission.
Except for special battles, most of them were structured like that.
The experience gained there is unconditionally communist, and regardless of contribution, it goes back equally to the four members of the party.
I’d definitely complain about a system like this if it weren’t for the bugs…….
Meteor, who couldn’t kill most monsters, was going to benefit greatly from this system, so I couldn’t help but be very fortunate.
“If you stay here, they will come again. To get out of here, you have to move forward.”
“Ha, yes. Explanation later…… For now, let’s aim to get out of here.”
Selene seemed to have a lot to say, but she didn’t ask anymore if she was about to let it go with a sigh.
“You mean you just have to move forward, right? If you run into any guys, take them down!”
“Yes, that is it.”
“It shouldn’t be difficult!”
Allen burned with enthusiasm.
But as he said, it was difficult for her to move forward in many ways.
“Haa… ha….”
It was because of Cruella, who seemed to be having a hard time even taking a single step.
Noticing that everyone’s eyes were focused on her, Cruella lowered her head and said.
“I’m sorry for being rude…… Leave me and go I will try to do something.”
She says Cruella in the game is suffering, but she somehow moves around and wields her sword, but she seems to be more severe here.
She took her word for it that she absolutely threw it away.
While no one was able to speak first, Yooseong opened his mouth.
“I can’t do that.”
“I don’t need shy kindness… Now I’m just a hindrance….”
“When I faced them, the enemies were not as strong as I thought. I will go even if I have to carry it.”
Then Cruella frowned and shook her head.
“Don’t make me feel pathetic anymore, Yuseong…. In my life so far, I haven’t looked back… If there was anyone who stood in my way, I abandoned everything and moved forward… Now that’s just me. I don’t resent being abandoned. Just let it go…….”
At times like this, she could just ask for help from the people next to her, but she had a strange obsession.
She herself has ended the lives of countless people.
Even those who followed her, if they got in her way, she thoroughly excluded them and moved forward.
Therefore, if someone comes to take their own life, they do not resent it.
Everything happened according to interests.
Similarly, even if someone abandons you, you just think it’s because you’re weak.
How can you complain when you’ve been like that yourself?
In one word, he was a person who regarded Naero Nambul as ugly.
So, in a situation like this, it seems difficult to bear being a hindrance to the cadets of the academy, who are far below him.
“Princess, if you are left here alone, your life cannot be guaranteed. Think of the person who will grieve when you are gone. I want you to consider the position of those who are left behind.”
“… ….”
The person who will be sad if I disappear.
Cruella thought.
If she died, many people would be happy, but there is only one person who would cry out in sorrow.
But Cruella didn’t like her meteor mentioning her, having never met Lunaella before.
“What do you know… ….”
“I’m sorry if I was rude. But personally, I don’t want her to die here. In any case, aren’t you the one who gave me grace?”
Grace?
She couldn’t remember.
“That… What are you talking about?”
“When I first met you. Didn’t you edit the school rules yourself for me? So that I can cover my eyes.”
Hearing that, Cruella laughed incredulously.
With something trivial like that.
“You might think it was no big deal from the princess’ point of view. But it came to me differently. How common is it for a stranger like me to receive such favor from a high-ranking person in a faraway foreign land? I thought he was a very nice person, and after I found out that the school rules had actually changed, it was considered a blessing. So I’d like to return the favor. Please do not refuse my favor.”
Yooseong is always thinking in his head how to brush her mouth under any circumstances.
This time, the deadly mouthfeel that came out like a water runoff was the result of numerous simulations made in the head.
It was possible because I understood the characters’ settings and personalities.
And it seems that the mouth-shaking this time has also been successfully eaten.
Cruella is smiling as if she’s saying she won’t win even in the midst of her pain.
Thinking she just had to finish, Yuseong lowered her stance with her back in front of Cruella.
“Come on, get on your back.”
“…… Anyway, this is embarrassing.”
“Don’t hold back. Just as it wasn’t difficult for the princess to change her school rules, it’s not too difficult for me to carry her on my back.”
“Haha… okay. Don’t be shy, but excuse me…….”
Cruella, who couldn’t find anything more to say no to, was obediently carried on Yooseong’s back.
‘I’m sure I’ve got a good impression.’
This was obviously possible thanks to the quality of the concept we did at the beginning.
Yoosung in the original story didn’t bother covering his eyes, so he didn’t have to violate his school rules.
“Well, that is a beautiful story.”
“Wow… ….”
Allen, who was watching it, nodded his head as if acknowledging it, and Selene looked at her again.
‘Wow, this is three times as good?’
For Yuseong, I felt like I was doing an EXP hot time event.
