Episode 411 Bad Relationship (1)
When faced with a hopeless situation, most people turn to the hope circuit first.
If you do this, do this, and do this……
Then, won’t everything work out?
Assuming countless what-ifs, they are blinded by the slim possibilities and miss the golden time.
years or even decades.
We rolled and rolled in the labyrinth, but our expedition was also a single person.
“……You want to leave this place?”
As soon as my decision was announced to the crew, the atmosphere of chaos began to permeate.
“What a hasty decision!”
“But wouldn’t it be better to wait here a little longer? It might be a little late because something went wrong over there.”
“That’s right! There are Noark guys all around, how far can we go by ourselves!”
A dissenting vote that spreads like an epidemic.
It’s a natural thing to do.
Because that’s the most hopeful of all the options.
If rescuers come, everyone can return alive.
The crisis is over, and the only thing left is to return to the city and be happy. Perhaps the hardships you’ve been through this time will degenerate to the level of a snack bar.
But…
‘It’s dangerous.’
I know.
So far, it’s not that hopeless.
Real despair comes when the golden time is over and even that ray of hope is trampled on.
At that time, even if I wanted to do something, I couldn’t.
So just do it now.
“What are you all talking about? Have you ever had a problem with your head as a group?”
He uses strong wording, which is understandable to cause backlash.
It is a kind of shock therapy.
“In Ice Rock, there were rats. When we arrived at the Eye of the Sky? No matter how many times we tried, we couldn’t reach them. And what about now?”
“…….”
“It’s been three days and there’s no news. A little late? A rescue team is coming? That’s funny. If that’s the case, there’s no way the area around here will still be full of Noarks. They must have been called to the frontlines to stop it.”
After taking a deep breath, I continued.
“Everyone listen carefully.”
“…….”
“We were abandoned.”
I honestly don’t think so.
Judgment that if this is not the case, vain hope cannot be broken.
“Why did the royal family abandon us!”
Well I don’t know why either.
Maybe something really happened and I couldn’t come.
I think it’s more likely that way too.
But so what?
Regardless of the circumstances of the opponent, the result does not change.
“If you haven’t been abandoned, why aren’t you still coming?”
“That’s…”
The crew member, who was blurry, continued with gritted teeth.
“…So you’re going to move somewhere else?”
“okay.”
“With everyone so exhausted? Do you think that will happen? Everyone will die—!”
“What’s the difference if you wait here!”
As my voice rose, the wizards activated ‘Voice Control’ with insufficient magic power, so I shouted loudly without worrying about it.
“Everyone open your eyes!”
“…….”
“No matter what they do, it doesn’t change the fact that they won’t come to our rescue!”
All the members of the crew fell silent at my cry.
If you want to refute, there may not be a distance to refute, but it was what they felt in their hearts.
that what I said may be true.
If I hadn’t had that doubt in the first place, I wouldn’t have been as anxious as I am now.
“…….”
“…….”
I opened my mouth in the silence that lasted for a while.
“I don’t intend to die in a place like this.”
“…….”
“Are you different?”
The answer to that question was a member of the Kaislan team.
“…Who wants to die?”
“Okay then. Follow me. Kill the enemies and protect the comrades. At least that’s more meaningful than waiting for the day you die here.”
After saying that, I glanced around at the crew members sitting on the thick branches.
Looking at their expressions, it didn’t seem like my voice had resonated deep in their hearts.
If you think about it, it was natural.
Lichen Suits.
A mysterious explorer whose name and face were unknown until he joined the expedition.
Even if he showed himself here and there, how reliable he would be in this situation.
They naturally looked at their team leaders.
And…
“Let’s head to where the light leads.”
Jun was the first to step out.
He looked at me with an exaggerated courtesy to the point of seeming sacred, perhaps to help me.
“Our 4th Team will walk through the hardships you have chosen.”
Next was Kaislan.
“The Lapdonia royal family has appointed Lichen Schweitz as the head of this expedition. Doubting his judgment and presenting a different opinion can be interpreted as disloyalty to the royal family.”
The introduction was long, but his words could be summarized in one sentence.
“Our 5th Team will follow your orders.”
Like Jun, are you trying to empower me?
Kaislan kneels down on one knee on an uncomfortable branch and takes the ceremony.
It was a little surprising.
At the top-level meeting, he seemed displeased.
“Our second team is a little different.”
Then Aqurava opened her mouth.
“It’s not because I have vague faith or because I’m afraid of the royal family’s military law. I just agreed with that person’s opinion. It seems like it’s difficult for the royal family to come to our rescue.”
“so?”
At my urging, Aqlava smiled.
“The second team will follow you.”
Okay, so now we have one last team left.
The third team, led by James Carla, the vice-captain of the Sawtooth Clan.
As soon as their eyes gathered, James Carla gave him a puzzled expression.
“For me…”
The performances of the team leaders in front of him seemed to be a bit of a burden.
But did you think that it didn’t suit you?
“I’m Lee Ha’s alumnus. Just because I’m against it doesn’t mean I’ll change, and an ordinary person like me should always find the trend and follow it.”
It was a little boring, but it was like this guy. seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
His sincerity mixed with his joking tone seemed to have been conveyed well enough to the other members.
“……Already messed up.”
“What are you going to do with everything already decided?”
“Hahaha, I didn’t like it at first. How many times have I been unable to work at the royal family? I have to find my own way to live.”
“I’m going to stick with the royal family in this situation. To do that, returning alive is the priority.”
I clenched my fist as I looked around at the muttering members.
Kwak.
ok let’s try
***
“There are more troops patrolling the area. I guess they noticed they were dead… what should I do?”
what to do
The plan for the future is simple.
“Use multiple teleportation magic.”
First, use the scalpel teleport to get out of the middle of the enemy territory.
Well, there’s no problem here, but…
“After using such a big magic, the wizards will be out of power for a while. Our location will be revealed.”
Certainly, the searcher from Noark’s side will follow the reverberation of magic and pursue us.
There is no other option.
“But I have no choice but to take it. Even if Amman moves secretly, there is no way this person will not be caught by the enemy.”
“That’s true, but…”
“As long as the eye of the sky is smashed, they can’t communicate freely. It’s best to spread the distance with multiple teleportation magic.”
At my judgment, the team leaders showed some concern, but did not say it out loud.
Ok then this problem is over.
“What next?”
After that, the plan is also very simple.
“Whether the pursuit party is caught or not, it goes up north.”
The destination is the Northern Hemisphere of the Dark Continent.
“…isn’t it the south where the allies are?”
“okay.”
There is one reason why the North was chosen over the South.
All the seekers can track is where we teleported.
They don’t even know where they went next.
To put it simply…
“You’re trying to fool the enemy into thinking we’ve headed south. If they send their troops south, the north will be empty that much.”
“That’s right. We’ll hide under the lanterns. Until closing day.”
“I understand. Did your staff come up with this?”
I don’t believe I would have thought that.
It’s okay. It’s nothing important.
“Everyone, get ready. When the magic chants begin, they will gather like dogs.”
“……all right.”
The strategy was shared with the team leaders, and each team leader gave instructions to his team members.
All preparations to start planning with this are over.
Tadat.
Soon we came down from the tree where we were hiding.
After all, you won’t be able to hide yourself with magic while completing the scalpel teleport magic.
“It’s a land you can step on in three days.”
The touch of the ground felt unfamiliar for a while, but the five wizards in the expedition team immediately divided themselves in perfect order and began drawing a magic circle on the floor.
Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
There are two multiple teleportation magics needed to move 28 people.
As much mana is used, a guy with good spirits will soon notice the change.
After, please, I hope it’s a little late.
“…….”
The escort formation spread out in a semicircle as if escorting wizards with their backs to a huge tree.
“Mister, someone is coming. Very fast.”
Soon, Erwen, who had an unusual sense of humor, recited in a low voice.
and how long has it been
“…they stopped when they found us. They’re rushing back now.”
Yes, you’re trying to call support.
Whii-i-iik-!
Before he could give any instructions, Erwen shot an arrow through the dark forest.
But…
“Did you kill him?”
“No. It’s stuck in a tree.”
“Right.”
Well, even if I got it right, it would have been just to buy a little more time.
I sighed once again and shouted loudly.
“Everyone prepare for battle!!”
You don’t have to keep your mouth shut while everyone is caught anyway, right?
Soon, the Noarks will come in with excitement.
And we will somehow endure until the scalpel teleport magic is completed.
Swoop.
I checked the back one last time now that I have relatively free time.
“Coordinates! The coordinates entered are wrong!”
“Oh sorry Fix it now!”
The wizards who draw the magic circle more urgently than ever, whether they are aware of the urgent situation. Thank
you for your
hard work, but it would be a lie if you said there was no regret. .’
Of course, I know that this is unavoidable.
In the original game, unless you were a level 1 wizard, you could not use the ‘dimensional door’ magic, and the cost of using it was the life of the caster. Currently,
a car commonly used in the labyrinth The original text is an improved version of the original version.
To be precise, it is a downgrade version.
An improved portal that can be used even by a 4th level wizard.
Even it can only be used once in a lifetime and does not necessarily lose life when used.
But… ….
‘Cannot be used on the 7th floor or higher.’
The improved version of the portal has such a decisive penalty. So, what I feel regret is the other part.
‘I should have asked for a 1st class wizard somehow…….’
I requested, but was rejected from the Marquis line.
There are very few first-class wizards in the Mage Tower, and there is only one in the royal family. Even if
the Tower of Heaven is destroyed and all members of the expedition come back alive, it is a loss if the first-class wizard dies.
I wonder if
the entire expedition is abandoned.
I suddenly thought of that, but soon I shook my head. Should I say
that the thesis itself is wrong?
It was wrong to put our lives on the scale with the first-class wizard in the first place.
In the end, the finalized plan was to send the main force to rescue us. Of course,
in the process, the rescue team would have to suffer damage, but considering the reputation of each member of the expedition, even the royal family was willing to sacrifice that
much
. .Let’s stop thinking about this.’
Why didn’t the rescue team come?
It’s been a problem I’ve been thinking about countless times, but I’ve decided not to think about it anymore.
That’s what I’ll know when I get back alive anyway… ”
Coming …!”
If I can’t go back, there’s no point in trying to find out.
