Surviving the Game as a Barbarian – 83



Episode 83: Sewerage (4)

I don’t know exactly when it started.

Just when I noticed.

“Misha? Dwalki? Hikurod?”

Everyone was as frozen as a stone statue with their eyes wide open.

‘What on earth?’

As soon as I feel a question information that I had not seen before comes into view.

A very thin and long needle.

It’s stuck in each of my colleagues’ necks.

The important point here is…

‘I’m probably the same person who got the needle stuck.’

The neck muscles are stiff.

And that numb feeling is gradually spreading downward.

“The character has been poisoned by ‘Basilisk paralysis poison.’”

“The character’s body value is over 300.”

“The poisoning effect is reduced by half.”

My heart sensing a threat begins to beat like crazy.

On the other hand the brain calmly issued commands.

What I need to do right now.

Slurp-

The massive arms raised the shield to cover the upper body.

The legs are slightly bent and the balance of the body is lowered so that you can react at any time.

“….”

A silence that feels like it’s choking you.

In that process I even conserve my breathing and focus on the sound.

Knock-knock-ttook-

There is the sound of water drops falling from afar.

And that’s it.

But I had no doubts.

Like when I stepped on a goblin trap.

The enemy is clearly nearby.

“….”

A shivering silence continues for a few seconds.

It felt as if every nerve cell in my body was on edge.

fault.

At that time I heard a very small noise.

It’s hard to call it the sound of footsteps… It’s like a noise like stone crumbs rolling in the wind.

‘…Is this a stealth type skill?’

I made a quick decision.

I don’t know what it is but the poison is gradually spreading through my body.

So at a time like this it would be better…

“The character used [Wild Eruption].”

It would be better to try to win somehow.

That would be at least a little more likely.

“Behel—laaaaa!!!”

Let out a shout with all your might.

Of course unlike monsters the ‘threat value’ absolutely has no effect on humans…

This part of the research was completed yesterday.

[Hmm… It was a very strange feeling. My head knows there’s no danger at all but my body seems to be telling me I have to run away…]

People with weak energy feel fear when exposed to [Wild Eruption]. Therefore there may be cases where it fails to act as a ‘provocation’ and runs away.

But on the other hand if the target is a belligerent person…

[For some reason I felt like I had to do it quickly. Oh of course before you grow up. After becoming huge I felt similar to Dwalki.]

‘Provocation’ is possible to some extent.

So what about the unidentified enemy hiding in the dark?

“It’s an interesting feeling Barbarian.”

I thought so too.

Well it’s amazing but this is the line that should be said.

I don’t know what I did but I can hear voices from the front and back at the same time.

However let alone the problem of not being able to know the enemy’s location.

‘Wait a minute that voice sounds familiar…’

I froze in shock.

The voice just heard was that of a woman.

He was a little husky but that was clear.

‘Who the hell is it?’

The brain that feels a question combines keywords.

A ‘woman’ who hides herself like an ‘assassin’ and shoots a ‘paralyzing stinger’.

…I remembered.

“It was you.”

That psychopathic bitch I met in the Land of the Dead.

It must be that bitch.

***

Did you have any intention of hiding your identity?

“…I didn’t know you could tell them apart just by voice.”

Soon she appeared in front of her.

A slim figure of slightly over 170 cm.

Burning red eyes and a half-cut off right ear. Except for the fact that she was wearing casual clothes everything was the same as back then.

Trudging.

She takes a step forward and closes the distance between her.

To be honest she was dripping with cold sweat.

She has recently grown explosively and even earned the nickname Little Vulcan….

“You’ve become a lot stronger Barbarian. “You can’t even move after being hit by that.”

Well I still can’t compare it to this bitch.

‘He is an explorer who can even use Aurors who are active on the 8th floor…’

Just looking at cancer there is no answer on your own.

However I have no intention of just dying.

It infuses strength into the hands holding the shield and mace and rearranges the frightened mind.

The woman asks while looking at me.

“Is it because of your colleagues that you don’t run away?”

I guess someone isn’t a psychopathic bitch.

The emotion of wondering about something like that is so fucking creepy.

“The question starts with me. “You probably kept your promise but why do you want to kill me now?”

I swallowed my saliva and asked back.

I was curious about the motive for the action. Well if you know that you might come up with another way.

but….

“You want to kill me?”

She furrows her eyebrows and tilts her head.

“You were the one who opened the door and broke in first barbarian.”

“…door?”

“Say it. “Who heard about this place?”

‘What on earth is he talking about?’

For some reason the conversation is conflicting from the beginning.

I asked bluntly.

“I don’t understand so speak plainly. You broke in? “Where are you saying that?”

The woman frowned again.

It seems he has finally realized that there is a huge problem with this conversation.

“…How did you open the door?”

“If it was something magical that was in the sewer I smashed it with my mace.”

“You broke it…?”

“Is there a problem?”

The woman closed her eyes for a moment in response to my bold question then shook her head as if she understood.

“No there is none.”

As she is a top explorer she does not seem to blindly believe in magic like Dwarki or the dwarves.

However she was curious about the reason and asked questions.

“But why did you break it?”

“Because this bitch ran away here.”

Only then did he naturally put Elisa who he was carrying on the floor.

Actually it bothered me a while ago.

I was carrying it because I didn’t even have time to do so but it was clear that it would get in the way if a battle broke out.

“…That Karui priest who was wanted a while ago.”

“I’m glad you know. “So has the misunderstanding been resolved?”

“The misunderstanding has been resolved.”

“Then that’s a relief. It was nice to meet you. We’ll just go now. Oh you don’t even need to bring potions. “I’ll take care of the rest—”

“Once we find out about this place we can’t just let you go.”

“…Even if I destroy the video recorder and swear to keep everything that happened today a secret?”

“Because the situation is different from back then.”

Damn… it doesn’t work either.

I completely erased my weak feelings.

Now that I have heard the definitive answer from that bitch’s mouth there is only one option left for me.

thus-

Crash.

She took off the armor she was wearing.

“…What are you doing all of a sudden?”

Whether the other person expresses doubt or not.

I took off my gaiters took off my helmet and shoes and threw them away haphazardly.

and….

“hey.”

I spoke to him.

Fortunately the other person agreed to the conversation.

“…?”

A look in your eyes that tells you to say something if you have something to say.

I continued speaking quickly.

“Do you know two ways to make people angry?”

“…what?”

“The first thing is to stop talking in the middle. And the other one….”

“The other one…?”

I don’t know either.

No one told me that.

“Behel—laaaaaaa!!!”

Dash forward with all your might.

I hope it distracts that bitch just a little bit.

Pull his arm holding the mace behind his shoulder.

The woman who was shocked for a moment seemed to have noticed my trick belatedly and laughed.

“What a funny guy.”

Well if you dash from this distance it won’t be that embarrassing to you.

So how about this?

Huh!

He swings his arm forward and throws the mace.

Swish-!

As expected you are avoiding it.

The woman who nimbly turned her body to avoid the mace looked at me as if I was wondering what was going on.

“…?”

It seems I didn’t expect a guy named Barbarian to throw a weapon at me from the beginning…

Without any hesitation I threw away the remaining shield in one hand.

Whick!!

A shield that rotates and flies like a disc rewarding the practice I practiced on my days off.

Its speed cannot even be compared to a mace.

but….

“…!”

That needlessly flexible bitch easily dodged the shield by bending her waist backwards.

I wasn’t disappointed because it was what I expected.

Tadat-!

Using the moment when the mace and shield were separated he kicked the ground once more and continued his dash.

The distance narrows in an instant as his body size has surpassed that of ordinary people.

‘now.’

Elisha extends his hands forward as if sliding into the bitch.

That bitch’s expression was still relaxed.

Just ‘look at this?’ A face like that.

Tadat-

In fact the bitch missed the gap exactly by taking three steps back.

This time too I wasn’t particularly disappointed.

That’s because I stretched out my hand so that it could be seen in the first place.

‘As expected.’

A straight passage that can hardly be said to be wide.

If a large barbarian attacks from the front the only place to avoid is behind.

Of course there would be no answer if I suddenly stepped back but…

Even then he only moved just enough to avoid it.

Rather than a personality issue it may be an aspect of efficiency that he naturally developed while pursuing high standards.

‘I guess we can go to plan A.’

Therefore [Giantization] was cast at the right time.

This is a link created inspired by the dramatic survival of Liakis.

“The character casted [Giant].”

As the body expands the arms become longer to match.

The distance which would have originally been about three steps short is immediately shortened.

“…!”

For the first time a look of embarrassment appears on that bitch’s face.

I haven’t even started properly yet.

He immediately grabs my shoulder and pulls me towards him.

A considerable amount of resistance was felt at my fingertips.

but….

“you.”

It’s different from before when I was pushed out of power.

That’s because at that time I was a beginner barbarian with level 1 and 0 essence.

“I need to build up some strength.”

An opponent who is helplessly dragged in by the power left to me by the corpse golem vampire and orc hero.

“Tsk!”

Push your fist into the face while holding the neck tightly so that you cannot avoid it.

Wow!

Heavy sound and touch.

As expected it was impossible to subdue it with one blow.

thus-

‘One more time.’

I quickly retrieved my fist and brought it down again.

But at that moment.

My visual acuity has been raised to its limit and I can sense that bitch’s movement. Before I knew it he had come to his senses and was swinging his dagger.

‘Are you planning to cut off my entire wrist?’

I made a quick decision.

That bitch is an Auror user.

Therefore whether it is physical resistance bone strength constant horsepower or anything else it is not very meaningful. I’m sure that dagger will cut my arm before it reaches the opponent.

so…

‘I guess I’ll have to go to plan B.’

Stop your outstretched fist.

It’s not like I’m going to save myself now or anything like that.

I just didn’t think it was reasonable to suffer a loss unilaterally.

I’m not afraid of getting hurt at all.

If that’s what you have to do to live.

‘Flesh explosion.’

The moment I finished imaging in my head.

A strong explosion erupts from the hand holding the opponent.

Pow-!

Flesh exploding.

And acid blood.

Cheeeeeeeek-!

That poisonous bitch only frowned and didn’t even moan.

But wasn’t there a pain tolerance stat?

Even if she could endure the pain her movements became stiff for just a moment.

‘Okay then back to plan A.’

Avoid the dagger being swung and plunge your fist into the abdomen.

I know this is a chance that will never come again so I keep going as if there is no next time.

Wow! puck! puck! puck!

As befits a dealer with a paper body it wasn’t long before a response came.

“…!”

Fresh blood leaking out of the mouth as if the internal organs were chewed up.

As soon as I see this so much excitement rushes into my head that I feel pressure in my eyes.

Damn there’s really no way to win against this bitch—

“Amelia Rainwales casted [Self-Replication].”

When the brain senses hope.

Suddenly my instincts rang an alarm and sent me a warning.

The cause was really simple.

“Barbarian.”

…Why can I hear a voice behind me?

He is definitely being held here by me.

Tadadat-!

I stopped punching without realizing it and looked back. An identical-looking woman was running towards me.

‘Fuck.’

I didn’t really wonder why something like this could happen.

[Self-replication].

An ultra-rare essence that can only be obtained from the guardian of the ‘Doppelganger Forest’ a 4th floor crack.

“I guess this is okay since I ate the essence of a vampire.”

The woman held by me muttered.

And that moment.

“Amelia Rainwales casted [Suragak].”

The woman’s body took a big leap and she spun in the air and landed a kick in my face.

Kwaaang-!!

Shock as if my entire head had been blown off.

No did this really fly?

Tuk.

A heavy impact sound heard next to the ear.

Dark vision.

Consciousness fades away like a cell phone that runs out of battery.

“Your mi….”

Fuck.
