Chapter 105

Episode 105 PK (1)

The person who opened the rift.

In other words, who is the mafia?

It’s a question I’ve had since I entered the ‘Glacier Cave’.

Because the mafia was a ‘variable’ to me.

It was necessary to know in advance whether it would be a positive variable or a negative variable. So, without assuming that Mr. Bear was a mafia, I opened all possibilities and collected clues.

As a result.

‘Yes, it was him.’

I found a person who is presumed to be a mafia.

But that was all.

Should I say I don’t know what this guy wants?

‘I can’t just kill that thing after that.’

The more I don’t know what’s inside, the more uncomfortable I feel. Sёarᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

That’s also true, because if that guy is the mafia, there’s a lot of potential for it to become a negative variable in the future.

But…

‘I’ll have to keep an eye on it for now.’

The mafia is one.

And he hasn’t done anything yet.

If you kill them all, it means there will be a problem.

Hurreuk-

As long as the two innocent people aren’t going to ‘shut their mouths’.

“Is Michelle okay?”

“…Me? Are you okay?”

Misha answered naturally, but in fact, yesterday’s fatigue will run rampant in her body.

Unlike Jensen and Mr. Bear, we only got three hours of sleep because we were on the watch.

“Don’t worry. Isn’t it better than the Witch’s Forest?”

“That’s… that’s right.”

I smiled and brushed off my worries.

Well, a child who endured that would not stumble to this degree.

“Shouldn’t you stop messing around and start slowly?”

Soon after, Mr. Bear spat out a word, and Misha stepped back and returned to her original position.

the furthest back of the formation.

If someone does something stupid, you’ll know right away. If he wasn’t there, it would have been burdensome to be a tanker and stand at the forefront.

Turbuck.

As soon as you take the first step, the party follows at your speed.

‘It’s not 2D graphics, it’s actually like this.’

A dark ice cave.

The ground in the castle is slippery, and the overall terrain structure is more three-dimensional than the crystal cave on the first floor.

There were steep sections as well as places where the road was cut off in the middle and had to be climbed over with a rope.

It’s just…

“Still, it’s fortunate that there’s only one road.”

There was no need to get lost without a searcher.

It’s not that there weren’t side roads in the middle, but it wasn’t long before a dead end appeared.

All you had to do was go through the main aisle.

Smash the monsters that appear from the ice wall.

Poo-!

By the way, the monsters that appear here are Wormstone Saber Tiger Frost Wolf Ice Golem Owl Bear.

Unlike the Bloody Fortress, where the 7th grade monster ‘Bone Knight’ appeared, most of them were 8th grade monsters.

‘But the actual difficulty is higher here.’

Abnormal condition [Hypothermia].

A debuff field effect that reduces agility by up to -30 and doubles cold damage taken when there is no cold resistance.

“Be careful, Ms. Nephrin. Perhaps because her body is stiff, these guys’ attacks seem to be more painful than before.”

“Ah, somehow…! That’s why!”

As the journey continued, ‘Jensen’, who was in the second row on either side of me, began to utter anguish.

Of course, out of consideration for them, I didn’t slow down. That’s because the two of them had almost no stake anyway.

puck.

In fact, Misha who protects me, Mr. Bear, and Mr. Bear. As the three of us made our way through the road, we slowly reached the end of the chapter.

Did it take four hours to get here?

As I walked up and down the winding passage, a wide cavity appeared.

“Minister Huiyu.”

Three monsters trapped in a pillar of crystal-clear ice.

“Your skin color is white, so you are an Ice Orc.”

“…Ice Oak?”

“Don’t worry, it’s only level 7.”

The weapons the Ice Orcs were holding were all different.

One holding an ax, one a hammer, and one holding a wand.

“…I wonder if I have to fight them too?”

“They wouldn’t be here for no reason.”

Mr. Bear replied cynically to Zensia’s muttering.

and that moment.

Chijijik-

The ice pillars that imprisoned the ice orcs began to crack and crumble all at once.

“Aren’t you giving me time to look around?”

Mr. Bear’s relaxed reaction, anyway.

“Don’t panic and stand in formation!”

I shouted urgently to the restless Jensen. That’s right, it’s easier for Misha to keep an eye on you guys when you stand in formation.

“Ah yes!”

Soon, Jensen came to my side, and Mr. Bear stepped back from a distance and took a sniping position at the same time.

Kwak-kwang to-du-du-du-doo.

Ice shards fell and the three ice orcs woke up.

He exhaled a ferocious snort, saying that he was a mid-boss.

[Chuiyiik-!]

One shaman and two warriors.

It’s a pretty balanced composition, and it has [Hypothermia], so it’s a pretty tricky opponent.

If you don’t know how to attack.

“Whoa…….”

He let out a long breath and raised his shield.

It got pretty tense.

Not because of the Orcs that can be caught at any time, but because of other parts.

‘If I’m going to do something tricky, now would be the right time.’

There is a mafia in the team.

Of course I don’t know what the guy’s purpose is.

Maybe you just want to break the rift and have no intention of hurting anyone.

But if that’s not the case, be prepared.

So—

Quaang!

Focus on defense rather than offense.

It’s better to hide power just in case.

In that sense, he gave instructions to Misha to just watch and not step forward.

“Why didn’t you run to your lover and are you still here?”

“I don’t know what might come out of the back. And I’m not a lover.”

“Well, it still seemed like that.”

Mr. Bear expressed doubts about Misha’s positioning, but it was for a convincing reason.

And…….

“Tsk, they are there, but I’m going to have to use my strength this time.”

It brought out abilities that had never been shown before.

「Abman Urikfried has summoned iron hero Iradun.」 A

huge sized bear protrudes from the portal created in front of Mr. Bear.

It was the number of souls.

‘…Iradun?’

To be honest, I was a little surprised.

Since he was a 5th-level explorer from the beast race, he wondered if he had already signed a contract

with the soul water, but… ‘I never thought he was a summoner.’

I can see why solo play was possible even with a bow jab.

If there is a tank summoner, there is no need to insist on a team.

[Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!]

The summoned bear cub quickly ran on all fours and roared next to me and stood up. And, accustomed to it, he began to mark a single warrior.

‘I guess I’ll have to go with plan B.’

I acted thoroughly rationally.

nothing has changed anyway

Because he hid his power, Mr. Bear must have taken out the soul water he had been saving until now.

[Chwiiyiik!]

That’s why I allowed the ice orc to hammer.

If it hit the body, it would be obvious that he was being mean, so I just hit him with his head as if he was heading.

Quaang-!

In addition to wearing a helmet, his bone strength stats were also in compliance, so his head was not smashed.

Just brain shaking and a little dizzy.

Even that, the natural regeneration value was applied and it was recovering quickly.

But…

thump.

I picked up and fell to the floor.

That’s the judgment that if you catch the orc Samdol-I too easily, you won’t be able to take a look at the inside of the mafia.

“Are you all right… ugh!”

Carlson ran up to me in a fright and took over the aggro.

and that moment.

「You have killed the Ice Orc warrior. EXP +3.」

The shot arrow pierces the hammer orc’s head.

As a result, the shaman’s aggro changed to Mr. Bear, but the

5th grade explorer was skilled.

Tadat.

A bear man with a height of 190 cm, who swiftly evades witchcraft and shoots arrows accurately with a crossbow.

「The Ice Orc Shaman cast [Ice Wall].」

Even the Shaman’s defense skill was meaningless in front of that ignorant arrow.

How can a level 7 monster stop that?

Aaaaaang-!

The arrow that shattered the ice wall pierced the shaman’s head and exploded.

「You have killed the Ice Orc Shaman. EXP +3.”

There is only one orc left.

‘I’m going to catch all three arrows like this?’

A sense of despair creeps in.

If the battle was too easy, the one-sided composition was coming out to the point that my plan to make it difficult was colorless.

‘Is this a 5th grade archer?’

The floor is cold, so just get up pretending to be conscious right now?

As I was thinking about it, someone chanted.

“That’s the number of souls.”

cold voice.

“Now we can proceed as planned.”

Mr. Bear, who was loading the next arrow, collapsed vomiting blood.

dump.

The mafia finally got into action.

***

In order to become a mafia, there are several prerequisites that must be established.

Knowledgeable enough to know how to open a rift.

You must have excellent wayfinding skills to the extent that you can go to the second floor in 19 hours.

It should be the ability to clear alone.

This alone reveals the shape of the eolchu.

A seeker with a level 5 level of armed force.

This is the true identity of the mafia.

The problem is that all three had this potential.

1. Mr. Bear.

Level 5 explorer.

Something similar to a player’s mindset, etc.

My mouth hurts just talking about it.

2. Carlson.

He was the only one who said his name at the introduction.

He didn’t even mention the essence he possessed.

Also, the lower level equipment was well maintained.

like new.

I watched it all the time, wondering if it was camouflage equipment, but I didn’t even eat the Frostwolf Essence.

It was suspicious enough.

Well, not better than him.

3. Gencia Nephrin.

He was trained as a searcher and said he was well versed.

He also said that observation is his specialty.

All I see is insurance.

To make the following lines sound natural.

[I wonder if I have to grab that and go down?]

Even when I met the yeti blocking the cave.

[oh! It shines when I touch it.]

Even in the second chapter.

[I feel like my body doesn’t move well…!]

Even when the mid-boss casts [Suppression].

[By the way… is it all over now?]

Even when everyone was careless before the last wave started.

He continued to point out the key point, pretending not to.

As if he knew how to attack.

Of course, this level was nothing compared to Mr. Bear or Carlson.

If it wasn’t for the dirt that was on your shoes.

The first thing I checked upon entering the rift was my shoes. To open the ‘Glacier Cave’, you need to go to the beast’s lair on the 2nd floor.

Gencia was the only one who had dirt on her shoes.

Well, if you didn’t clean up what you stepped on in the city, I’d agree, but…

[Now that I think about it, there is one strange part, but Gencia’s smell changed after it fell into the water.]

I was convinced by Misha’s report.

Although not as good as Rotmiller, the olfactory stat itself is on the high side like a beastman.

[Originally, it smelled more filthy.]

[Like a beast’s den?]

[Ah! I see now. I wondered why he was familiar!]

Gensia is a mafia.

I judged that it was such a malicious variable that there was plenty of room for it to become a negative variable.

And thanks to that, I was able to prepare in advance.

Pooh-!

The moment Zencia’s sword dug into Mr. Bear’s abdomen.

Misha, who had been waiting for a while, threw a vial and hit it.

Clink!

The glass breaks and the contents spill out.

“Thank you. Thirty million stones would be— kyaaah!”

Gencia, who was about to say something leisurely, gets covered with the solution and backs away in shock.

“What the hell! What are you doing to me…”

I quickly stood up.

But did my fainting play a part in that bitch’s decision to make this time of the raid?

“What is it…”

Gensia looked even more confused.

Instead of answering, I let out a shout.

“Behel—LAAAAAAAAAAA!!!”

What is it?

From now on, it’s called self-defense.
