Surviving the Game as a Barbarian – 69



Episode 69 Barbarian Hero (2)

“You must be worried right now because there is no one to clear the road right? Hand over the essence of the Orc hero to me. “I will open the way from the front.”

“Now I see he was just a crazy guy.”

My brother stares at me with cold gaze.

Then I realized one thing.

“No one can clear the way? What on earth are you talking about? “Can’t you see the wizards over there?”

Talking to this guy is a waste of time.

This guy who is only a member not only does not have the knowledge to make a judgment but…

I am not fully aware of the current situation.

This also applies to the members who are watching this situation from a distance with interest.

“Half-pun you come this way. “I don’t want to bear the stigma of leaving his younger brother in limbo.”

“Bjorn…?”

We need someone who can communicate better.

For example the Wietnom that led the battle against Liakis.

‘That guy would make sense.’

But I don’t think he’ll bring his boss just because he asks nicely…

“Hmm.”

First I cleared my throat.

And like a barbarian he shouted with all his might.

“If you don’t want to lose everything invest in me! I will open the way—!!”

If you have ear canals you can’t help but hear it even if you don’t want to hear it.

After a while a man came out.

***

“What is your name?”

“This is Bjorn son of Yandel.”

“Iraz McGrane is currently serving as the vice-captain of the Dzarwi Clan.”

He finished his speech in an instant and got straight to the point.

“Say Bjorn Yandel. “Who on earth heard that we subdued the orc hero?”

Yes it starts with that too.

“I guessed it.”

“You guessed it…?”

“okay.”

Of course I didn’t understand at all at first.

Why did such a large clan come down to control something like an orc colony?

After carefully combining the clues I came to a conclusion.

“If they really came down to capture the great Orc warrior there’s no way they would have that much strategic material.”

A large clan?

So you always carry that level of consumables with you?

Well that can’t be true.

To some extent this is beyond the scope.

“I wonder if there was a real purpose.”

Level 5 monster orc hero.

A type of hidden boss that is summoned when you sacrifice 777 orc warrior’s magic stones at the altar in the center of the colony.

I’m sure that was his goal.

The ‘Oc Lord’ appears with a slim probability so you can’t catch him no matter what he does.

‘The reason they had as many supplies as I did was probably to prepare for a situation where an Orc Lord might appear.’

“But it looks like the Orc Lord hasn’t appeared?”

“Huh do you even know that?”

McGrane let out a strange exclamation.

However there were no further questions.

“Now then explain why we need you.”

A word that omits the many questions and curiosities that still remain with him.

There’s no more time to waste here.

For some reason this man smelled of efficiency so I also got straight to the point.

“I have the imprint of an immortal and the essence of a vampire. For reference this is the essence from the Rift Guardian.”

“So you can use all three abilities.”

It must have been the first time that a vampire appeared as a rift guardian but McGrane just nodded his head once and moved on.

“And again?”

“There is the essence of a corpse golem. It’s not well known but the pain tolerance level is—”

“There is no need to explain every detail. “Isn’t it possible to fight while taking potions?”

“…That’s right.”

“So is that the end?”

When he nodded honestly he closed his eyes as if gathering his thoughts. As befits someone suspected of being efficient the time was not long.

“It’s definitely not that bad. No compared to those two he’s infinitely better.”

A completely different reaction from Misha’s older brother who looked at me like I was crazy when I said the same thing.

Even coming to a conclusion was quick.

“Good let me invest in you.”

“Vice-captain! That essence was requested by a noble family—!”

Misha’s older brother next to him complained about that decision…

“stop! If you say that Jeongsu didn’t show up that’s enough. “If you can save a few more people with just one purified water isn’t it worth the investment?”

He immediately ignored my objection and continued talking to me.

“Of course there are conditions. “If you escape here alive please join our clan.”

Damn for some reason I agreed too easily.

It wasn’t worth worrying about.

“I refuse.”

Once you join a clan it is difficult to leave.

There’s nothing I can’t do but should I be branded as a traitor who doesn’t know grace?

One time I did not pay the ‘withdrawal fee’ and an attack event occurred in the labyrinth.

But in reality not in a game.

“Why? “That would be a good suggestion.”

“I have no intention of going under anyone yet.”

What if I create my own clan in the future?

There is no need to enter a single unit and be restricted in your future actions.

Well if your life was at stake there would have been no other choice but…

‘I guess it’s the same over there that there is no choice.’

It’s kind of a game of chicken.

In fact the winner has been decided.

I have one person’s life on my shoulders but isn’t the other person carrying the lives of 23 people on their shoulders?

“It’s a shame it was rejected.”

“So what is your decision?”

“Good I will give you the essence.”

Did he think it was a waste of time to fight?

McGrane neatly erased his regrets. Then he had someone bring a box.

‘This makes me strangely nervous.’

I tried to calm down and slowly opened the box.

Click-

There are three Orc heroes summoned with magic stones.

For reference each name has a unique name.

In other words it is a high-ranking variant and has some pretty troublesome essences. Therefore even though it is a level 5 monster attacking it at the raid level is essential.

And the important thing here is…

‘Danish? Belta? Targas? ‘Which of the three spit out the essence?’

These guys whom I usually call the Three Orc Brothers each drop an essence of a certain color.

Danish is a red essence containing [Shouts of Enthusiasm].

Belta receives the blue essence containing the [Standard of Struggle].

Tarugas is the green essence containing the skill that is the core of my shield baba training method.

Which of the three came out?

“Whoa….”

I soon opened the box and checked the color of the transparent test tube.

“It’s green.”

Luck follows you one after another.

It makes people anxious for no reason.

***

“[The essence of the Orc hero] seeps into the character’s soul.”

“Strength increases by +70.”

“Agility increases by +35.”

「The fighting spirit increases by +40.」

“Physical resistance increases by +20.”

“Bone strength increases by +30….”

***

Changes came immediately and in droves.

There were no external changes like during the Einar era but…

Wow-

As expected from a physical essence it is overflowing with power.

Not to mention the improvement in strength the perceived weight also went down due to the increase in agility.

Whatever you do in the future you will be able to move more nimbly than before.

And above all….

‘Is this because of the fighting spirit?’

Uncharacteristically a desire to wield this power as quickly as possible creeps up.

“Let’s take off the equipment first.”

I suppressed my excitement and took off my equipment as instructed.

As I was doing that someone started talking to me.

“How did you know anyway? “We received a request.”

“I didn’t know.”

“…You didn’t know? But how did you so confidently ask for purified water?”

Well they probably didn’t know which essence among the three would come out.

I expected to put it in a test tube and decide on a member to take the purified water later.

The cost of the test tube will not be a big burden for them.

“Hmm that’s what I heard.”

“Is that the end of the question?”

“For now that’s right. “There is no time.”

As soon as I pack the stripped gear into her backpack and hand it to Misha McGrane hands me a bunch of her scrolls.

I didn’t bother to ask what this was.

Just hold the whole thing in your hand and say ‘Crackling!’ Tore it to the side in one go.

“The character used a physical defense auxiliary scroll.”

“Temporarily increases physical resistance by +10.”

“The character used an advanced endurance auxiliary scroll.”

“The amount of stamina decline is temporarily reduced.”

“The character used an energy regeneration auxiliary scroll.”

“Temporarily greatly increases stamina regeneration…”

A colorful aura that gently glows on the skin due to the effects of various scrolls.

“Now then drink this too.”

Next to the scroll were various potions.

“The character has taken a strength-enhancing elixir.”

“Temporarily increases strength by +10.”

“The character has consumed spirit tears.”

「Temporarily increases all elemental resistance values ​​by +15.

“I took the Basilisk Flask.”

“Temporarily increases pain resistance by +15…”

Damn is this real power?

“To be honest I can’t get used to it at all.”

“Hmm if it goes on like this it’s going to be difficult.”

“…I agree.”

Full-scale doping has not even begun yet.

When McGrane gave the signal the support explorers cast their abilities.

“Aaron Deflain casted [Heroic Protection].”

“The character’s magic power increases significantly.”

“Aaron Deflane casted [Flame of Regeneration].

“The character’s physical regeneration ability increases significantly.”

“Tarotess Pian casted [Coffin of Sacrifice].”

“The character’s threat level increases significantly…”

Every time a new kind of power enters your body you feel an unknown thrill.

I feel like I am an emperor.

But it’s still not enough.

In order to break through the darkness filled with Liakis’ clones you have to become more of a monster than an emperor.

“Now it’s your turn.”

As he winked Misha’s older brother approached him.

I can’t say it because it’s in front of the vice-captain but it seems like he doesn’t like something about it.

Actually that was common.

“No matter what ability you absorb his will be the most helpful.”

“I see.”

In order to make rational judgments it is necessary to let go of personal feelings.

Therefore I bit Misha’s brother’s neck.

“Ugh.”

So strong that you can taste the fishy taste of blood.

“The character casted [Blood Master].”

Vampire’s active skill [Blood Master].

The effect is simple.

“Temporarily absorbs Tailon Kalstein’s passive skill [Unholy One].”

When sucking blood directly through the mouth one of the target’s skills can be absorbed at random.

“I guess he took it because his eyes changed color.”

“I know without having to explain.”

[Unclean One].

A passive skill that reduces the maximum integer value to -1 but increases the performance of all active skills by 1.5 times.

“You’re pretty lucky.”

I completely agree with this but I wish you would stop saying things like that. Because I have a feeling that something just as bad will happen later.

“Then why not start early?”

I nodded.

Then he slowly imaged and activated the skill.

The skill obtained through the essence of the Orc hero.

“The character casted [Giant].”

In an instant the ground moves away and the people around them turn small.

「The character’s physique increases and the threat value and body value increase in proportion to the size.」

Also known as Barbarian Hero Mode.

The attention of everyone around him is drawn to his majestic appearance.

“Oh my…”

“That… is truly a monster.”

As a sign of reverence McGrane took off his cloak and his adjutant’s and handed them to me.

“…I think it would be better to cover it up with this for now.”

Since I agreed I quickly took it and wrapped it around my waist.

With this preparations for sortie were completed.

“There are only about 30 minutes left. Is it possible?”

Do you think it’s possible?

I shouted barely able to control my overflowing energy.

“Behel—laaaaa!!”

Nothing is impossible for me now.
