Chapter 213 – 207 Stupidity = Gottmogg’s Prison Labyrinth
Hwanin and his party, who got rid of the corrupt humans and came out to the large western room, which is symmetrical to the large eastern room, encountered four heteromorphic species.
Three ghosts like a cloud of white mist, and a skeleton dog.
=I’ll do it.=
Isilite rushes out with a determined expression and swings her red rick, literally slicing through the four of them.
Anne, who was waiting with her shield erected in front of Hwanin, witnessed the light shining only when Red Rick hit the heterogeneous species, and she let out a small exclamation.
=I’m already doing that.=
“Is that great?”
Anne nodded her head at Hwanin’s question, which she did not understand because she did not directly deal with phase power unlike other professions.
=Did you ever swim in a stream when you were little? At that time, she must have fired a water gun with her hand. =
She nodded her head because she had never played by the stream, but had done as a child her father in her bathhouse.
=You need a lot of water to shoot a water gun quickly and strongly, but if there is little water outside, you can’t even shoot. That’s why you can do that kind of technique from the late 4th or early 5th level when you have sufficient phase power, but Dew is now at the 4th level and handles it like that. That’s great enough.=
…… Hwanin, who thought for a moment, nodded her head.
It is known in many ways that it is better to save energy by releasing energy only when hitting rather than continuously using it.
However, it is a beneficial method in terms of energy consumption, and has nothing to do with raising skills or attack power.
However, if you dig a little deeper into that part, controlling the release of the phase force will lead to the control and tuning technique of the phase force.
“If you hone that skill, you will be able to adjust the strength and weakness of the phase force release, and since you can coordinate and control it, you will be able to reduce wasted phase power.”
Anne, who had only explained one thing, glanced back at Hwanin, who seemed to have realized three or four things, and shrugged her shoulders.
=Doryeong.=
“Well.”
= This is what I felt while watching Doryeong until now, but maybe it’s because he’s a genius, so he’s too stingy with praise. =
“…… Is it.”
= Seul Lee thinks of himself as ordinary or below average, but that’s all because of Doryong. In the first place, following the training of the doryeong means that you have qualities in itself. When training, don’t beat Dew, but praise her for doing well. =
“…….”
= I don’t have confidence because I always get beaten up every day. At least it seems that he gains confidence little by little while sparring with me, but it would be more effective to praise him than that?
“Hmm.”
= I don’t mean to praise you for doing well when you’re not good at it. It’s just my idea that it would be nice to lower the passing score of Doryeong by a small amount.
Hwanin shut his mouth.
Even if you ask them to praise you, don’t you praise them only when you can see that you are doing well? Praise for not doing well is only poison to training.
When Hwanin kept his mouth shut, Anne looked at her, wondering if she had crossed the line a little.
He himself was receiving education under the guise of Dalyeong and Dalyeon, but he wondered if it was presumptuous to give instructions like this and that.
Urgently added.
= So I mean it might be? I don’t think there’s any dissatisfaction with Doryeong’s training or that it’s lacking, huh!=
“No, thanks to your point, I remembered something I forgot. Heed the advice.”
There is a saying that people are 10 people and 10 colors.
Simply put, studying is like that. There are people who work harder when you give them compliments, while there are people who need to be dragged by the collar so they don’t think about anything else.
Issilite usually works hard regardless, but after all, it’s the latter. When she gave her encouragement or even the occasional compliment, she was visibly happy and would work harder on her training.
‘However…….’
Even now, she is holding about 40 points out of 100 points as a passing grade, but if she lowers it a little more……. She was a hwanin who wondered if she was at the level of ignorance.
A small room in front of the stairs going down to the 12th floor.
The party, who started exploring at 7:00 am and finished exploring the 11th floor around lunchtime, had a little late lunch and a break in the room before going down to the 12th floor.
Anne and Isilite take off their armor and start stretching, saying that Al is relaxing.
Hwanin sat next to them, leaning on Bisang’s side, recording and memorizing the traps he encountered on the 11th floor in his notebook, while checking the types of traps he had discovered on the previous floor.
‘I can’t guess.’
I learned about classifying labyrinth traps from Gallot.
Level 1 is a level where you don’t die even if you get caught, and if you’re unlucky, your limbs will be broken or cut off.
Level 2 is the level where you die without luck.
From the 3rd grade, magic traps begin to appear.
If you fall into a level 4 trap, you have a high chance of dying or getting a status abnormality.
Level 5 is a stage where you have to assume that you will die if you get caught.
At the time of education, I had no knowledge, so I just memorized it, but after experiencing the actual battle, I realized how rough this classification is.
The complexity, operation method, type, and danger of the first, second, and third-tier trap structures are all different, but when they are lumped together like that, they cannot play the role of information.
If it were you, you would have divided the risk of traps in each labyrinth into ten levels from 1 to 10 under those five levels.
Anyway, from the 3rd floor, the 11th floor, the risk of traps increased significantly.
Guillotines thumped down from the ceiling, nerve gas and poison gas spewed out from the floor, and windows burst out of the walls.
At this level of increase, magic traps could appear from the 4th or 5th floor.
‘The magic trap is the biggest stumbling block.’
At that time, the conversation between Isilite and Anne flowed into Hwanin’s ears.
=Anne. How many are left now? About 200?=
= 187 horses. It will be completed in two days.=
It’s been 4 days since I entered the labyrinth, and I’m already filling up all 1,000 of them. That’s almost 200 fish a day.
=I thought it would take about a month for 1,000 animals, but it’s pretty soon.=
= It’s all thanks to Doryeong, you, and Byeongsang. Before I got here, I expected it to take about 3 months to complete my duties.=
=Did it take that long?=
= There are two common ways. Catch 10 of them a day by yourself near the entrance, or get a party that goes down a little deeper and go in.
The latter is slow because you can’t find a party often, and the former can be entered every day, but it has the disadvantage that it is a little dangerous because you are alone.
Anne smiled lightly as she looked at Hwanin, Isilite, and Vispar.
It is said that no one can predict the future of a person, and that is true.
Who would have thought that you would meet someone to give your heart and body to, in a place you thoughtlessly found, and get a friend you thought you could make for the rest of your life.
Even now, once a week, when I wake up, I can’t tell if it’s a dream or reality, so I pinch her cheek or her thigh. She gave her virgin to Hwanin and pinched her cheek every morning for a week until it hurt.
= It must be a bit difficult to become a Holy Fighter. =
= Huh? What?=
=You have to do this every one to three years. Anne, you are Fleur, but if you leave Merianol and come to Radseah…….=
= Oh, it’s not like that. It’s my choice to be active in Radsea, and it’s my duty, but there are pretty big benefits if you work hard at this.
= Benefit? What?=
=This.=
He tapped the Giant War Hammer, Giant Tower Shield, and silver plate armor placed beside him.
=The hammer of punishment, the shield of the castle wall, and the light of salvation, respectively. These are magic tools of the Church of the Land God that are lent to priests who have been doing their duty for more than 10 years.=
= Ah. That.=
Isilite remembered that she had gone out before the tournament to exchange her armor.
The size changed so much that the weapon I was using before did not fit, so I submitted an exchange request to the headquarters, but it took a month to complete the exchange procedure.
Anne strokes her arms with a proud face and explains her functions.
=How great this is, the hammer of punishment is equipped with gravity weighting, durability increase, automatic durability recovery, and token functions?=
= There are four functions……. By the way, what is the proof function?=
= It allows you to use holy spells without the symbol of the Earth God Church. And the shield of the castle wall has increased hardness, increased durability, automatic durability recovery, and phase power amplification, and the light of salvation has pain relief, body strengthening, durability increase, and automatic durability recovery.=
Depending on how many functions are endowed with magic tools and which functions are attached, they are lightly divided into four levels: best, high, medium, and low.
And the weapons of the Church of the Earth Gods were artifacts that had only optimized functions as weapons, and each one consisted of hundreds of gold coins.
= And……. These are all features that can’t be thrown away.=
= Right. And a 30-year duty attendant can buy this for pure material costs, no labor costs involved. About 40 gold coins?=
Isilite nodded her head. If she had that kind of benefit, she couldn’t do it diligently, so both of you would ask me to do my duty.
According to Anne’s story that followed, there are conditions such as prohibition of sale (excommunication and accusation in case of sale), duty to return in case of damage, duty to recover in case of loss (support of church), but compared to her performance, it is a minor level.
After properly quenching her curiosity, Issilite finishes her stretching and picks up her undone compression bandage and begins tying her breasts together.
Anne looked with envy at Isilite’s big breasts, which revealed her presence by pushing up her light shirt.
Wow, those boobs are real……. What do you eat to make your breasts so big?
When Doryeong and Seuli first met, I heard that her breasts were G-cup.
But after spending her first night with her, Seul’s breasts gradually grew larger and became an H cup? But isn’t that the end?
Right now, I’m at the level of an I cup. I wondered if the period of growth came late.
Or maybe that’s it. That a woman who falls in love with a man becomes prettier because something exudes from her body.
Anyway, when Dew enters her labyrinth, she puts a compression bandage on her chest. The same goes for any woman. That way, it hurts less even if she gets hit in the chest, and it’s comfortable because she doesn’t shake even with violent movements.
Looking at Isilite’s breasts, her compression bandage almost wrapped, Anne glanced down at her and looked down at her own breasts.
…… Sir, is this the world? Does it make sense that the circumference of Dew’s breast with compression bandage and mine without it are similar?
Nope. Among the Fleurs, I also have a large chest. Yes, if it was from another species, it must have been as big as a dew.
=…….=
Somehow depressed, Anne silently began to put on her armor. Still, Doryeong likes my breasts because they are pretty. Yes, because you like it…….
Oh, why do my eyes keep sweating?
Hwan-in, who came down to the 12th floor, told Isilite and Anne, who was somewhat sullen, about the change of schedule, and started moving towards the 4th floor at the shortest distance.
=Why are you moving so fast all of a sudden?=
“It is because of the impending completion of your duty and the confirmation of the entrapment agency. To add to that, the heterogeneous species are weak, so they are not very helpful for your training and growth.”
=Trap?=
When Anne, who asks questions back in doubt, and Isilite, who listens quietly as always, come up to the 12th floor and summarize what she has learned and what she expects to be needed in the future, she nods.
“So I’m thinking of checking out what kind of traps will appear on the 4th floor. If magic-related traps start appearing, I will return right away, and if not, I will try to go down to the 21st floor or higher.”
=What would you do if a spell trap came out on the 5th floor?=
“I will have to hunt on the 4th floor for a while. Securing funds, acquiring combat experience, and growing jobs are also necessary.”
= Indeed. For the four of us, the 4th floor is suitable. Is the 5th floor a bit dangerous?=
=…….=
Isilite, who had only one thousand experiences in the labyrinth, rolled her head diligently during the conversation between her Hwanin and Anne, absorbing her knowledge, and then became slightly sullen without the Hwanin and Anne noticing.
In the 4th layer, there is a 4th degree heteromorphic species. Occasionally, heteromorphic species that are stronger than the level appear, but they will not be higher than level 5.
And it won’t be dangerous. Anne is in the 6th grade and has a lot of experience, and the master doesn’t need to say anything.
But what if a Class 5 anomaly starts appearing in earnest? She’s only level 4, so maybe she’s just getting in the way?
‘…… Let’s do our best so that Master and Anne don’t get caught.’
While Isilite was thinking, Anne revealed her concerns.
=It’s definitely because of the trap. It’s not good to increase the manpower, but it’s a bit like looking for places where there are no traps because the radius of action is narrow.
“As for traps, I intend to learn.”
At Hwanin’s answer, Anne and Isilite opened their eyes wide and looked at them.
=Uh, if Doryeong learns trap expertise, it will definitely be relieved…… Wouldn’t it be a little too much work for Doryeong to learn that?
= That’s right. The master still has many things to do. He watches our sparring every morning and evening, trains his physical strength and spiritual skills, manages schedules, secures party personnel, and does that every night…….=
It’s not something you do every other day or sparsely, it’s something you do every day, like a routine.
=Honestly, while recovering physical strength with the doryeong, that, phase stone… I’m a little worried about doing X. Me and Dew do it three or four times a day, and Yuri unnie will be added to it later, but I’m really sick of it.
To Hwanin, a 21st century modern man, the people of Nionebreth are quite lazy.
Here, we use something similar to the 100-degree method of dividing the day into 12 hours, just like the old Earth. Although clocks exist, they are not properly distributed, so the concept of time is very relaxed.
Usually, I come home at sunset, eat, play, go to bed, and when the sun rises, I have breakfast and go to work.
If you say you work hard just because you went out to work, it’s not like that again. After working moderately and resting moderately, when the bell rings, it is time to eat lunch.
After eating, I take a break until the bell rings again, start working, and when the sunset starts to set, I leave work saying the day is over.
Here, in winter, when the day is short, the working time is further reduced, while the time spent at home becomes more than 14 hours.
It doesn’t matter if you work from home or have a side job.
Reading and studying are done at the homes of wealthy people or rich people. Drinking costs money, so I go to bed early or play adult games.
It’s like diligent people and occasional side jobs.
In other words, Issilite and Anne, who are accustomed to living a life that ends with working 6-7 hours out of 24 hours, cannot help but worry about Hwan-in, who works 18 hours a day with the lights on even at night.
I wondered if I might have died from overwork while working like that.
Hwanin, who read the women’s concerns, somehow felt a smile form on his lips, but he did not stop the expression and hugged the women’s waists while wearing armor.
At Hwanin’s gentle gaze, the two women blush and avert their gaze.
“In my hometown, this is normal. Rather, it means to do what you want to do, so it also means to take a break. More than anything…….”
I gently lowered my hand from their hips and touched their buttocks, which were less protected by their armor.
=Oh.=
=Eh?!=
Anne and Isilite covered their hips with both hands while screaming softly at the mischievous behavior, and glanced at the smiling Hwanin.
“I don’t want to treat holding you guys every night as labor.”
= Dolyeong is also real…….=
“Anyway, I have no intention of adding more people for the time being, so I, the party leader, will have to fill in the gaps.”
Anne, who pursed her lips as if slightly pouting, gave a snort and a snort, then walked with Isilite by the arms of her and walked in front of her.
= Do it in moderation, in moderation. Don’t fall down or get hurt and bring tears to our eyes.=
“Careful.”
After that, Hwanin broke through to the 15th floor in 8 hours, and in the process, she was able to complete Anne’s 1,000 fire lion purification mission, and she killed 3 one-eyed skeleton giants and 5 corrupted humans to her 3rd level phase. I was able to get one more seat.
Hierarchy.
It is a unit of labyrinth depth that is usually called combining five floors together.
Hwanin, who descended to the 4th floor in 5 days, heard a mysterious beast growling from deep in the ground beneath his feet. The feeling of crying gave me a little goosebumps.
Anne’s face, which had been relaxed throughout her life, was also permeated with mild tension, and her expression disappeared from her face enough to make Issilite feel stiff.
Kwyuh…….
Bi-sang lays down the fluffy feathers and sits close to Hwan-in, crying low as if anxious.
“Okay.”
As I stroked her beak and gently scratched the inside of her hair feathers with both of her hands, Bi-Jin closed her eyes as if laughing and accepted her touch, shaking her purr-hair and wheezing! Cry cheerfully.
It is an expression that relieved the pressure of the heart.
Hwanin confirmed that and called Isilite.
=Yes, master…… Yep?! Haeup…… !=
=…… No these people Why is salting in front of my eyes all of a sudden.=
When Anne yelled at her for a passionate kiss scene right in front of her nose, Hwanin replied by holding Isilite with a languid expression in her arms and stroking the back of her head.
“It’s the mental care of party members.”
= Huh? Oh Mental Invasion.=
Seeing Issilite cradled in her Hwanin’s arms with her bare face, she remembered that she was on the 4th floor for the first time and belatedly nodded her head.
Experts evaluate that the 4th floor of the 5th grade or higher labyrinth is the real labyrinth.
Isilite is now on her third round of the labyrinth, including the last entry, and this is her first time on the 4th level of the 5th level. No wonder she stiffened with tension.
=Certainly, the kiss of the beloved master is effective.=
Suddenly awakened by Anne’s playful voice, Isilite hurried away from her ghost and tidied up her slightly tousled amber hair, covering her blushing face with one hand.
After confirming that Isilite had completely shaken off her pressure, Hwanin asked, looking at her Anne this time.
“Will you do it too?”
=If you didn’t do it, I would have been angry!=
Anne, who was quickly placed in the arms of her phantom, received a deep kiss from her phantom that lasted for three minutes. Isilite smiled and said.
= My heart was beating little by little. Doryeong’s kiss is definitely a hit. Right?=
=Uh, yes.=
Why is he ashamed to ask such a thing?
=But the doryeong looks very fine. Is it because I experienced a level 6 forest labyrinth?=
“Well. Phase currents appear to be related, but the exact reason is unknown.”
She’s level 6, but she hasn’t gone too deep. After encountering a blue flame tiger while going around the outskirts, she immediately escaped the forest-type labyrinth.
There are two possible hypotheses if you are looking for a reason.
Because her nerves are different from those of ordinary people, or because her constitution is highly resistant to such labyrinth mental invasions.
It wasn’t important, so Hwan-in looked around the room with the party who regained their physical condition, as if the darkness had opened its jaws.
A large room about 63m wide and 42m long. A pile of rotted hides can be seen piled up in the southwest corner of the room. If you listen carefully, you can hear a small tick-tick-some popping sound coming from the south wall of the room.
When I open the map, Anne and Isilite stick to the left and right and give the map a glance.
The structure of the 16th floor is in the form of connecting rooms. Most of the doors are plain or open, although the 16th floor has a few marked traps.
“The floor trap sign is unbelievable.”
Trap is a Hwanin who decided to believe only what he saw.
Thinking that I should be more careful, I was trying to figure out the shortest way down the stairs to the next floor.
Quet. Cuckoo!
“The enemy.”
At the warning of an emergency pointing west, Issilite and Anne quickly drew their weapons and grabbed them.
At the same time, a gigantic skeleton, especially a skull with two skulls, crouched down through the archway leading to the room on the other side, about 63 meters in front.
