Episode 471 The Second Demon King, Mien (2)
Drip-drip-
The small sound of water dripping from the ceiling hurt my ears.
“Umm…”
My body felt heavy.
It was hard to even move my eyelids, so all I could do was roll my eyes and look around.
broken stone.
The scent of Mian.
All I felt was this.
His own mansion had disappeared, and all he could see were caves with scarlet lanterns.
How the hell did that happen?
I tried to calm myself by moving Mana.
But strangely, there is no response from Mana.
The mana in the air was out of his control.
Ray was quite taken aback as he had never been like this before.
“Kkeuh…”
He barely got up and checked his condition first.
Fortunately, it seems that there are no injuries, but the impact of the ground upside down did not go well.
First of all, it is urgent to get out of here.
Ray walked through the cave using a twig that was rolling around as a walking stick.
The cave was quite deep.
It seemed like an hour long walk, but there was no end to the cave.
Fortunately, among the misfortunes, there are scarlet lanterns hanging on every wall.
It’s terrifying to imagine what would have happened if I hadn’t been able to see properly in this situation.
“How far do we have to go?”
The body gradually loses strength.
That time when I was just about to give up and take a break.
Stairs began to appear in front of me.
There are only stairs going downstairs and no stairs going upstairs.
“Are you saying there’s something downstairs?”
It is the main battle that must come down.
It’s a little uncomfortable to go down without any preparation, but there’s nothing to gain by staying here.
After thinking for a moment, Ray went downstairs.
The stairs were a bit demolished.
It is unsettling to see holes and cracks here and there.
From the bottom, the smell of animals and the smell of fishy blood came up a little.
By the time he got out of the stairs and completely descended to the basement.
Koo Goo Goo –
The ground suddenly moved and the stairs disappeared.
You can’t go up, you can only go down.
What is the structure of this place?
Ray cautiously clung to the wall and looked around.
Then a huge aisle appeared.
Next to it was a small road, like a sidewalk made for people to pass through.
There is no feeling of popularity around.
Perhaps you are the only one here.
I wondered what had happened to Soonbok and Mien and the other knights, but I decided to put it aside for now.
“Let’s get some rest first.”
Because I had been walking ever since, my body, which had no strength before, became incapacitated.
Sat down on the wall, Ray rummaged through the leather pouch in his chest.
Pounds of dried beef jerky.
I don’t know how long I can last with just this.
Now, if you can’t manage mana, it’s probably only going to last three to four days.
Rey bit the corner lightly, trying to save as much as possible.
It’s hard beef jerky that you wouldn’t normally regret, but you realize the value of it only when you don’t have it.
Ji-Ik-
I tore off the jerky and melted it in my mouth with saliva.
He didn’t even have the strength to chew.
“It is delicious.”
It’s just dried meat seasoned with salt, but it’s delicious. My
stomach
cried even while I was eating beef jerky.
How many days did he sleep in the cave?
day? Two days?
If not, maybe a week?
What do you mean by this place?
While thinking, Ray remembered Mien’s last words.
‘I’m running out of time… I’m running out! Get out quickly!’
don’t have much time
Did she know something was going to happen?
Come to think of it, at that time, Mien’s body reacted with blood and divine power.
“The sacred power of Mien… a saint created by the Black Room…” I
once read in a book that the blood of a saint brings miracles when I was in the Holy Land.
Could it be that the miracle happened in this way?
Many thoughts cluttered my mind.
Putting aside his thoughts for a moment, he leaned against the wall and rested for a while.
* * *
After two hours of rest, he got up and started walking.
Thanks to my good memory, I never forgot the way I came.
After walking along the road, there was a fork in the road.
When you get stuck in the maze, there is a saying to follow the left wall.
As I turned to the left, the scent of blood, which I had felt weak before, was a little stronger.
It doesn’t smell like human blood.
Somehow, a musty smell.
I wonder if it would feel like this if mud and blood were mixed.
The hard floor soon became muddy.
As my shoes became muddy, my steps became heavier.
“I can’t go far like this.”
The floor is so muddy that I can’t even rest properly.
I was thinking about going back when I heard a woman screaming in front of me.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
Was there anyone
Ray quickly ran in the direction of the sound.
As I forced my already tired body to move, my whole body screamed.
I focused on the sound while holding back the pain I felt here and there.
As I followed the woman’s screams, I came to a narrow side road, and when I entered it, there was a large cavity.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
A scream rang out again.
However, there is no woman in front of him, only goblins giggling and staring at him appetizingly.
One of the goblins raised its neck and screamed.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
“Kiki kick.”
“Kiki kiki kick.”
A sound resembling a woman’s scream came out of the goblin’s mouth.
Seeing that, the goblins laughed along as if they were having fun.
I was deceived.
Outside, I had never seen a goblin do such a trick.
In the first place, I didn’t even think that the stupid and greedy goblin would do tricks.
Inside the cavity, other goblins slowly appeared.
As befits a goblin with a large population, the number is over thirty.
Individuals are weak, but when gathered together, goblins are extremely powerful.
Besides, the goblins here were different.
The size also seemed to be twice the size of the goblins outside, and the intelligence was also high, seeing as they didn’t approach them recklessly.
A goblin threw a stone at him from behind.
Wedge-Ae-Ae-!
As the stone flew with a terrifying sound, Ray took out a dagger from his waistband and deflected it.
Passasac-!
As the stones scattered in the air and shattered, the goblins, who thought they were easy opponents, seemed quite taken aback by the unexpected situation.
“Kigigigigg…?”
As they panic, Ray quickly runs away.
It is a battle without a win.
I don’t know if my body condition is normal.
A single swing of the dagger almost gave me strength in my legs, so I needed to rest a bit more.
The goblins who came to their senses fiercely pursued them.
Stones and arrows fly behind his back.
Fortunately, the arrows shot by the goblins didn’t hit me because I had passed the narrow side road, but my body was getting more tired.
On the other hand, the goblins were frantic to find themselves.
It’s a chance to taste human beings after a long time, and they won’t be able to miss this chance of being a genius.
He sniffed and smelled himself, and it soon followed.
Ray deliberately fled into the mud he had passed through.
Although your feet will sink in, thanks to the mud, the smell will be erased to some extent and it will be difficult to catch up.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
The eyelids keep closing.
A strange feeling of fatigue came over me from earlier.
Besides, the body is also strange.
Something itching just seems to cause a slight muscle spasm.
It was clear that there were no injuries or abnormalities.
Just before getting out of the mud.
“Kigigiggeek!”
“Kiyi!”
The goblins found themselves.
Even after seeing the mud, he chased after himself without hesitation, and when he fell into the middle of the waist, he looked embarrassed.
The goblins from behind drew their bows.
There was no time to question how the hell a bow like that was made.
Arrows flew at high speed.
“Eck!”
Ray moved the dagger.
Although the reaction was delayed, it was not difficult to block the arrows shot by the goblins because of the original ability.
Dududuk-!
Eight arrows fell without power.
Angry at that, the goblins put arrows on their bowstrings again.
‘It’s a big deal.’
My physical condition is not normal right now.
Not only was it unable to move at will, but even when he fired an arrow, his hands were all sore.
Ray quickly moved his leg and pulled him out of the mud.
Papabak-!
The arrow went in the direction his body had been.
If it had been a little later, I would have consumed my strength again.
After getting out of the mud, Ray ran without looking back.
Soon the goblins were out of sight before he stopped and caught his breath.
“Huh… Heo-eok…”
What kind of goblin goblins use the selfishness of civilization?
Clearly, it was a proper bow with the string drawn taut, not the crude bow that goblins would carry.
“I bet the goblins didn’t make that…”
If that’s the case, goblins with high intelligence and a lot of objects would be really scary here.
Ray decided to call this place a dungeon for convenience.
There will be underground, there will be monsters.
If this is not a dungeon, then what is it?
I was looking for a place to rest.
He noticed something strange.
Koo Goo Goong-!
Every few hours, a roar is heard in the dungeon.
I’ve heard this sound twice.
The first is when Mien tells her to run away.
The second time was when I came into the basement of this place.
That means that someone entered this place every few hours or that the dungeon was moving by itself.
What if the dungeon is running wild?
Perhaps there is no meaning in remembering the road.
Moreover, he, who must have come back, sees the crossroads in front of him for the first time.
There was no way my memory was wrong, so I could only think that the dungeon moved by itself.
“It really is a dungeon.”
A self-moving dungeon?
Doesn’t it feel like the dungeon is alive!
If he were sleeping, and the place he was in would move in front of the goblins’ residence.
gulp.
The saliva went down the drain.
Even if you manage to survive, if you are an ordinary person, you will surely not escape death.
Of course, if you can handle mana, the story will be a little different, but unfortunately, mana still hasn’t budged.
In a situation where the mana in the air did not follow his will, the effect of the spirit of speech was also insignificant.
“In the end, I will have no choice but to wander around this dungeon.”
No food or water.
It seems that the replacement monsters need to figure out how to supply drinking water.
