131. It’s so urgent that
it’s so urgent!
Kurrrrr!
Starting with the floor sinking, the walls and ceiling of the infirmary also cracked and disappeared into the twisted space.
‘It wasn’t time to rest.’
This is a dungeon and at the same time a cave located in the Red Forest. So Kang Seung-hyun thought that if the boss monster died, the dungeon function would disappear and only the cave site would remain.
But that wasn’t it.
‘The dungeon itself is disappearing!’
Originally, the transition dungeon is an unstable place that appeared on the Azul continent due to space transition.
So, when the boss monster that maintained the dungeon died, it began to reverse into a gap in the original space dimension.
“What happened?”
“The dungeon is collapsing. If you stay like this, you will fall into the dimensional rift.”
“Dimension gap?”
Upon hearing Kang Seung-hyun’s words, the three Red Roads shouted in surprise. All three of them didn’t know much about the dimensional rift, but they knew it was dangerous.
“The dimensional rift is a place you can never get out of once you enter!”
“They say there’s a terrifying monster living there!”
“Aaaaaaagh!”
“Let’s run away!!”
Nickel and Gascoigne screamed.
Adventurers know a lot about the dimensional rift because they often go to dungeons, but the common people of the Azul continent do not.
So there was a tendency to think of the dimensional rift as a hellish place where mankind could not live.
“Everyone calm down.”
[Soothing voice]
Kang Seung-hyeon calmed the two of them down and said.
“Even though the dimensional rift is dangerous, it’s okay as long as you have the means to return.”
Koo Goo Goo!
Then he looked inside the broken infirmary and picked up something from the floor. It was the half-dismembered remains of Gordius Larva.
“Healer, why are you picking that up?”
“A personal hobby?”
“…there’s something I really need in here.”
“What do you really need?”
tuk tuk.
Grabbing the wreckage and shaking it lightly, something the size of millet protruded from inside. That was the core of the boss monster.
[Boss monster’s core (lowest level)]
“If you use the boss monster’s core, you can create an escape portal.”
“An escape portal?”
“Live!”
There are many ways to get out of the dungeon, but the most standard way is to catch the boss monster and acquire the core.
‘You went through that hardship and knocked me down, but you spit the lowest grade? Have you seen this scumbag?’
Kang Seung-hyun clicked his tongue when he saw the core that Gordian spat out. Even if the grade is low, you can create an escape portal, but you can’t help but get angry.
‘You are leaving. bye.’
Kang Seung-hyeon threw the remains of Gordian into the dimensional rift beyond the broken cave.
“Mr. Rosen, take this.”
“Wow!”
Then, he handed Rosent a kernel the size of a millet of Gordian. Rosent carefully wrapped it in fear of leaking a nuclear weapon.
“Inject magic into it.”
“My me?”
“Because in order to open the portal, you need to activate the boss monster’s core using magic.”
It hurts to say more, but people with no magic power or people with a magic resistance constitution cannot open the portal.
In order for such a person to open a portal, he would have to waste precious magic potions.
“It’s a waste to use a magic potion on this millet-sized kernel.”
“okay. I’ll try.”
Rosent closed his eyes and concentrated.
A small amount of mana flowed into the core.
“It will be difficult to open it by yourself, so please help Mr. Nickel and Mr. Gascoigne.”
“Let’s open it quickly and get out!”
“Haaaaa!”
The three Red Roads gathered their strength and squeezed out their mana.
Wow!
The magical energy the three of them gathered flowed into Gordian’s core, emitting bluish light.
Great!
Pod!
As the nucleus breaks at the same time. A black portal was created in its place.
Woo woo woo.
“It worked.”
Kang Seung-hyun checked the escape portal.
If you pass through this portal, you can go to the entrance of the dungeon unconditionally. This is an advantage that cannot be seen in return magic circles or return scrolls that go to a designated place when activated.
“Let’s go in!”
“We’ll move Bill!”
“quickly!”
The Red Road trio helped the fallen Bill Sayhan and jumped into the portal.
“Come quickly, too!”
Seeing that they take care of their colleagues even in this situation, it seems that they are really close to each other.
Seunghyun Kang drank the stamina potion and approached the portal.
“What are you doing?”
LePenny got up only after the four disappeared through the portal.
“…Can you use that magic repulsor?”
He crossed his arms and muttered.
“yes?”
“Isn’t it going to break as soon as I touch it?”
“Is that why you waited?”
“okay.”
He was worried that his constitution might cause problems with the portal, preventing his comrades from escaping.
“If something happens, I’ll be left alone.”
That’s why he deliberately waited for the others to pass through the portal.
“You can’t let other guys get involved.”
Although he has the appearance of an immature bully, Le Peny was a decent leader who led a group.
“Because this mess happened because of me.”
“You don’t know your fault.”
Seunghyun Kang smiled and gestured.
“Don’t worry, come in.”
The components of a portal made with nuclear weapons are the life force and mental strength of the boss monster.
“Magic power is only used to break the core. There is no magic in this portal, and even a normal return scroll can withstand at least one magic repulsor.”
“Then I’m glad.”
Le Penny passed through the portal with a smile.
– Ugh.
Pod!
As the two passed through the portal, the landscape changed from a gloomy cave to a forest.
Patter, Patter.
It didn’t rain as hard as before, but it didn’t stop completely either. The sky was overcast and the clouds scattered a cool drizzle.
“Turn it off!”
“Hey!”
“It’s done.”
Looking around, the Red Road trio were carrying Bill Sayhan under the tree.
‘I think it’s better to say that it delivers people rather than moving them.’
All in all, Bill Sayhan was taller than the three of them, so his legs were dragging on the floor.
‘But something is missing. what?’
Kang Seung-hyun was about to take out the stamina potion.
“The captain is here too!”
“I can spend an hour with this.”
Nickel and Gascoin, who were moving Bill Seihan, discovered Kang Seung-hyun and Le Peny.
“Come this way, Captain!”
“If you stand there, it will rain.”
The two of them pointed under the tree with proud faces. But Le Peny just looked around with a hard face.
“for a moment. What about the other kids?”
“huh?”
“The rest of the members!”
“uh? ah!”
Nickel exclaimed with a bewildered face.
I realized that, but only six people came out.
“We went out alone!”
“Ah, everyone passed out earlier!”
“Aaaaaaa!”
Right now, the members of the Red Road were asleep without the world knowing, or they had collapsed after being freed from Gordian’s mental control.
Of course, there was no way to know that the dungeon would disappear.
“…Ah Mr. Kim Ho-jung!”
It was only then that Kang Seung-hyeon realized the reason for his emptiness. It is because he left behind Kim Ho-jeong and the Rudy family who were sleeping without the world knowing.
‘I wouldn’t mind, since it’s usually not a big deal.’
You can’t leave it alone if you’re in a dying dungeon.
I had to go back into the cave right now.
“What are you doing? Move now!”
Le Peny was the first to stand up.
“I have to bring the kids quickly!”
“No!”
“The captain needs to rest!”
“The kids are in danger, but I’ll take a break!”
Le Peny was a patient who should be resting right now, but he seemed unwilling to do so.
“If I tell you to sit down and stop doing useless things, you won’t listen.”
[Fria’s bond pouch]
[Generates small stamina potion arrows.]
“Let’s go quickly. There is no time to procrastinate.”
Papabak!
Kang Seung-hyeon drove a stamina arrow into Le Peny’s body and ran into the cave.
“Rocent, take care of Bill. You can’t leave an unconscious patient alone.”
“okay. Be careful.”
“let’s go.”
Le Peny followed Kang Seung-hyun with nickel and gascoin.
“Everybody wake up!”
“huh? What…”
“No time to explain! get out!”
The two Red Roads rushed into the cave and began waking their colleagues.
“I’ll sleep for another 5 minutes…”
“It hasn’t come up yet.”
At first, the members were not awake, but
coo-gu-gu-gu-goo!
“omg!”
“There was an earthquake!”
“run!”
I saw the ceiling and walls shaking and started to run away on my own.
“Okay, I think I’ll just have to wake him up somehow!”
“Everybody wake up! If you don’t want to get lost!”
Because the situation was so urgent, Le Peni started to wake up his men with a kick.
Fuck!
puck!
“Ouch!”
“Ugh!”
“Get out quickly!”
“yes!”
The effect was clear. The members who came to their senses ran outside as the captain commanded.
There were many things I wanted to ask, but it seemed like I would get hit again if I procrastinated.
“Mr. Kim Ho-jung, Mr. Kim Ho-jung!”
Kang Seung-hyun also went into the room to wake up his colleagues. Not only Kim Ho-jeong, but also the Balik couple and Rudy were in a deep sleep
.
In particular, Kim Ho-jeong was sleeping with a happy face, unaware that scarabs were scattered everywhere.
“Oh wake up soon.”
“Ufufufufu!”
There is no time to kindly wake up.
Kang Seung-hyun poured a stamina potion on Kim Ho-jung’s face.
“Whoop!”
This effect was also evident.
Kim Ho-jeong opened her eyes while writing Oh Man-sang.
“If you wake up, wake up.”
“What is it… Uh heh heh!”
Kim Ho-jeong, who was rubbing her eyes, jumped up when she saw a scarab rolling around next to her.
“It’s all over the place.”
“I want to get out of here!”
“We have to wake up the others too.”
Kang Seung-hyun took out a stamina potion and poured it on Rudy’s family.
“Uh cold!”
“Ugh.”
“Ugh!”
They also raised their bodies with arrogance.
Everyone looked awake, but
“If you don’t want to die, get up right away.”
“Yes yes!”
“Let’s go, Rudy!”
Hearing Kang Seung-hyun’s words, he immediately came to his senses.
“This is done. What about that one?”
Kang Seung-hyun took his party and joined Le Peni’s party.
“We all woke up too.”
“Because it was bedtime, it was easy to find because most of them were in the dorm room.”
“I think we just have to go out now!”
Kang Seung-hyun and Le Peni’s party hurriedly ran to the entrance.
If it was a normal dungeon, it would be impossible to escape through the entrance, but in the transition dungeon, it was possible to escape only by going to the entrance somehow.
“Ah…”
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
But when they got to the entrance,
“There’s an old pit!”
“I guess we are too late!”
“I just need to go a little bit!”
The floor was deeply sunken, creating a huge pit that could not be jumped over.
If you stumble here, you will fall into an endless dimensional gap.
“Sensei Gagang! Do we have an escape scroll?”
At that time, Kim Ho-jung took out a scroll from his inventory. It was something I bought at the Crimson Mage Tower the other day.
“Can’t I use this to get out?”
“Yes, but there are only three copies in all.”
Only 2 people can escape with one scroll. Even if everything is used up, only 6 people can escape.
“Two of us can’t go out!”
“yes. There are not enough of them.”
There are 8 people in this seat right now.
If you escape by using a scroll, someone will fall behind.
“How about making arrows and shooting them? Let’s retrieve it!”
“The scroll is for two people, but if you make it with an arrow, only one person can benefit from it. Even if you use the arrow retrieval skill, only 6 people will be able to escape.”
“Then it’s the same!”
Kim Ho-jung screamed and shouted.
King God’s arrow retrieval skill has no meaning in this situation.
‘I don’t like developments where someone sacrifices because it’s not fun.’
Kang Seung-hyun clicked his tongue and looked around at the people gathered at the table. Judging by the expressions on their faces, some people were determined to give up their escape and stay behind.
“Teacher! I’m fine, so I…!”
“Okay, I stay.”
“If the captain stays, me too!”
“Why are you thinking of making sacrifices instead of thinking of good ideas?”
“But I don’t have any good ideas.”
Kang Seung-hyeon ignored them and was lost in thought.
‘A way for 8 people to escape together… Ah!’
At that time, Kang Seung-hyun’s head flashed and an idea came to him.
“There is only one way.”
