Chapter 70

Episode 70 Barbarian Hero (3)

Running with all his might.

Leading a monstrous giant with a thread reaching 5m in diameter.

cooong! cooong!

Every time my feet hit the ground, I heard footsteps like those of large monsters.

“Don’t fall behind and follow me well!”

Behind them are Misha with 23 clanmates, and behind them are 40 third-floor explorers who have not been swept away by Jack Fletcher’s instigation.

How they got together is simple.

[Give up all your equipment and I’ll take you.]

Not only was McGrain a rationalist who wanted to make up for even the slightest loss…….

「The character cast [Impulse Imprint].」

「The sacrifice placed within 100m radius The body value of the character temporarily rises by the number.」

Judging that it would be better if there were at least one more offering.

“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”

Power overflows.

As much as the overflowing power, the unbearable instinct of destruction dominates the whole body.

‘This must be because of the fighting spirit.’

I’m glad though

I can’t stand this urge.

“Kyaaaaaaagh-!”

The miniature bodies of Liakis flew from the front.

Even if it’s called a miniature, it’s over 2m in size

.

Whoo!

Wields the mace without mercy.

Because his body has grown so much, it feels like he is swinging a spoon rather than a mace.

I don’t know what the right person thinks, but.

Poo-!

One of the clones hit by a blow to the stomach turns into powder and disappears.

If it was the original me, I would have had to hit a few more times to die.

Once again, I feel how much my physical stats have been blown up.

But the problem is…….

Kwaaang-!

Every time you smash a guy, an explosion blooms.

Not at the place where the clone died, but at the place where I am standing.

「Riakis’s hatred is activated.」

「The character takes a lot of chaos property damage.」

This is why the presence or absence of a main tank is important in the [Evil Gap] pattern. These self-destructing clones will definitely deal damage to the target who killed them.

In other words, whether it’s a famous swordsman or a famous shrine, even if the deal is high, it doesn’t help anything here.

Kwaaang-!

The level of damage that would have gone to the goal in one hit if he was a weak magician.

My whole body tingles.

Even if it had pain tolerance, it would have been like this, so if it was original, the music would have exploded every time it exploded.

Chiyiyiik-!

The black liquid that clung to his body melted away while giving off smoke.

In places where the condition is not good, the muscles have already flowed and the bones inside have been exposed.

But there is no problem.

Because I am a dark barbarian who has inherited the will of a vampire.

「The character will not die until the heart is destroyed by the passive skill [Source of Darkness]」 You just

need to protect the heart somehow.

Well, in the current situation, that might seem like a matter of time, but…

Clink!

Countless glass bottles are flying even at the moment when the clones are turned into powder and the path is pierced.

In addition, the priests who hurriedly followed were pouring heels as much as they could.

“It was dangerous just now! Don’t kill too many at once!”

“Behel—laaaaa!!”

“If you hear me, answer me!”

no that would be easy

In the [Giant] state, the threat level is increased according to the size. In other words, the probability of attracting monster aggro increases.

However, the originally large barbarian’s body rises to an insane level.

In fact, it is different from constant provocation mode.

It was all thanks to this that the following explorers could move comfortably.

Because everything is rushing only to me.

“Look!! I can’t hear—”

“I can.”

Still, once I adjusted my pace as McGrain advised, Mischa’s brother and another melee fighter right behind me exploded their clones.

Just…….

“The priest! What does the priest do! Come on, get treatment!”

It’s not very reliable to catch two or three of them and tremble like that.

I don’t like the fact that the priest’s heal is dispersed.

Above all, if you adjust the pace, you can’t explode the passive effect to the maximum.

「The character’s HP is less than 50%.」

「All resistance and resistance values increase due to the passive skill [Hero’s Path].」

Orc Hero’s passive skill [Hero’s Path].

Activated when health is less than half, this skill increases all types of defense values.

And according to my research… ‘

The maximum effect was applied when it was less than 20%.’

It was for this reason that the Orc Hero Essence was needed in the first place.

No matter what color essence it is, the passive is the same.

“Okay, both of you go back.”

“What? I can still—”

Something like a dealer trying to emulate the role of a noble tank.

“Something might appear from behind.”

Soon I calmed down the two dealers with nice words and sent them to the rear.

McGraine, who was watching from behind, said nothing this time.

I just screamed like this.

“There are only 10 minutes left. The future is important, so please do your best.”

Yes, I’m rooting for you there.

***

Tier 5 explorer Taylon Karlstein.

As he steps back from the forefront, a middle-aged man starts talking to him.

“Oh, are you here now?”

“Yes, Mr. Hernesion.”

Soon after, Taylon nodded, and the face of Anton Hernesion, the regular team 7 wizard to which he belonged, brightened.

“Yes, vice-captain, you judged well.

“Yes, that’s right…”

Taylor answered weakly, swallowing bitter feelings in his throat.

Then, as if avoiding a conversation, he averted his gaze.

At the end of that line of sight was a barbarian.

“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”

Countless monsters swarm in the dark.

And a barbarian who wielded a mace while screaming more like a monster than those monsters.

Kwaaang-!

Taylor chewed his lips as he heard the sound of an explosion that would make it meaningless to even count how many times it had already happened.

Deuk-

The vice-captain made a good decision?

Don’t you know what might appear behind you?

I was disgusted with myself for pretending not to know the question and nodding my head.

‘Shit.’

The truth was simple.

It wasn’t even the vice-captain who told me to step back in the first place. It was that barbarian.

A half-penny younger brother who belonged to a half-mage who couldn’t say anything when he was told to get out of the colony where

he was a sorcerer.

[Something might appear from behind.]

Telion couldn’t refute what he said without looking back.

no i didn’t

It was a short time, but I thought it was not something people would do.

Kwaaang-!

A single swing of the weapon immediately returns with terrible pain.

No matter how nimble your body is, you can’t avoid it.

The problem is that the fact makes the body dull.

Even in a situation where he has to swing his weapon without rest, his hands are stiff and do not move.

really pitiful.

“Hey, don’t worry too much. As long as you don’t feel pain, anyone can do it.”

Couldn’t you manage your facial expression?

The man next to him spoke as if to comfort him.

One of only two remaining warriors who also withdrew from the front line with him.

“I’ve heard that most Essences with Pain Resistance are underrated, but if this type of tactic is viable, it will need to be re-evaluated.”

Despite the man’s consolation, he kept his mouth shut.

Because at first I thought so too.

Pouring potions like that is only possible if you have pain tolerance, and in the first place, that barbarian and yourself are different even in the role group.

It feels like fighting on the front line as a warrior, but…

rather than wasting time by taking it with your body, your role is to aim for a momentary gap and put a blow into the enemy’s throat.

Kwaaang-!

So it is a natural result.

You don’t even have to feel embarrassed.

yeah i thought so

But…

“Behel—laaaaa!”

The more I look at that big back, the more I question it.

‘How can I not hesitate at that point…?’

Flesh engulfed in the explosion flows down like water.

The rushing beast bites open bones with its teeth.

But even in the midst of that, that barbarian brandished his weapon accurately without the slightest hesitation.

Unlike myself, who had a stiff body.

We are doing what we need to do without stopping.

‘But this is something anyone can do?’

can it be

In the first place, I heard that having pain tolerance doesn’t mean that you can’t feel pain completely…

even if that’s not the case.

“They say that no one can follow a barbarian in terms of bravery, but that must be true.”

“It’s almost like someone who doesn’t know about death.”

Just because there is a potion, a priest, and the essence of a vampire doesn’t mean you are invincible.

As one famous explorer put it,

There is no existence that does not die in the labyrinth.

Same goes for that barbarian.

‘There’s no point in denying it anymore.’

Ironically, after admitting it, my heart felt lighter. Silently doing what one has to do in a situation where one’s life is at stake.

How many people can’t even do this simple thing.

What that barbarian is doing now is absolutely not something anyone can do.

As you can see from the reactions around you, which are different from before.

“The vice-captain’s insight is really amazing. I didn’t expect the author to do that mission so well.”

“Does anyone know what that friend’s name was? A person like that must have been known to some extent…” “How did

the conversation with the vice-captain go? I think it would be very reassuring if someone like that joined the clan. ……”

Even if you don’t know the detailed circumstances such as pain tolerance, you can’t help but feel it when you see it.

That the barbarian saved them.

“It’s horrifying to think what the situation would be without the author.”

“Did you say missha? What is the identity of that friend?”

“I don’t know……”

Someone asked Banpun’s younger brother, but unfortunately he couldn’t get a proper answer.

However, he thought as he heard the murmur of Hernesion, the wizard next to him.

“If the Balkan, who was called the hero of the barbarians, came back alive, it would look like that…” There

is no need to wonder what the name of that barbarian is already.

“It’s over! The end is in sight!!”

“Speed up!”

Sooner

or

later

,

everyone will know

. A roar like a storm roars. And at the same

time

, dark red rays are shot from the ceiling toward the center of the darkness.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

sight.

Seeing this, McGrain murmured.

” It was breathtaking.”

” I agree.”

Beyond the darkness that disappeared like fog, nothing remained.

There was only a trace of the destroyed land where there should have been an orc colony

.

If it was a bit late to get out

…

In fact, it was funny to end it by saying that it

was close. At the end of the day, the soul power.

In other words, MP ran out and [Giantness] stopped, and the explorers who went to the other side seemed to have died as well, as the clones started to rush in like a tidal wave. I escaped in time

. It’s like a miraculous situation just by that.

Still, everything isn’t over

yet.

I quickly checked the number of survivors.

It was exactly 30.

It was because most of the explorers who had paid for equipment and followed died at the last minute.

‘In other words, the probability is 1 in 30. No, if you add Misha, it’s 1 in 15… …..’

It should be low, but it is difficult to be relieved.

I watched the others change without relaxing.

It was then. Sёarch* The NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Bjorn…?”

Misha’s voice came from the side. ” For some reason,

my body isn’t moving…” Soon after, I turn my head and look at Misha

,

and I see a stiff appearance.

“Misha Karlstein has been designated as [prey]. 」

「Misha Karlstein falls into a state of incapacity.」

Is this a fucking

true story

? I didn’t know that it would come out of your side.”

“Why is everyone looking at me like that…?”

There is no time to explain every word.

I just wanted to ask, just

in case. “Do you plan on taking him?”

“That’s…”

”

That sounds like trouble. It’s hard for us to accept any more sacrifices.”

McGrain firmly draws a line on behalf of his older brother, who is having a hard time answering.

However, I ask again.

“Do you think the same? No matter what the relationship is, you’re still my brother, so are you going to let me die like this?”

“Bjorn… I don’t know what it is, but I’m fine, so stop…”

It’s okay, whatever’s okay.

Your life depends on it.

“So the answer is ?”

I

asked again, and the guy caught McGraine’s notice and replied

briefly .

C.

“You’ve wasted precious time,”

I mumbled and picked up Misha, who had turned into a log, and tied it with a cloth.

Then I quickly checked the time.

[23:45]

The remaining time until the labyrinth closes is about 15 minutes.

It’s short . A time that can be said to be short if it is long and long if it is long.

「Riakis, the lord of chaos, wakes up.」

I think it will be the longest 15 minutes in my life.
