Master SSS-Class Magic Swordsman

Chapter 41

Tomb Cave 041.

●

There were three people inside the wall.

One B-class hunter and two A-class hunters were recruited from the ’10th noble Harland family’.

Seeing Alberto and Eud, they realize that they have met a rescue team.

All three of them thanked us again and again and wept.

Among them, the arm of one A-class hunter was completely gone.

It is said that he had to give up his arm in the end to the attack of the worms.

Afterwards he somehow poured the potion, though hemostasis. As a result, he used almost all of his potions.

“Thank you, Alberto-sama, Helmet Dwarf…! Thank you……..! Of course, I thought I would die when I run out of this magic power…!”

“I lost all my potions, and I was just waiting for the time to be eaten……!”

“Ugh…”

As above, Eud introduced himself as a ‘dwarf of helmets’.

Alberto quickly calmed them down.

It’s not that I don’t understand them, but I couldn’t spend more time here.

Get the information you need quickly.

Eud asked in a voice that resonated slightly inside the helmet.

“- Have you ever checked the number of deaths of the Phoenix Hunters?”

“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Po, the Phoenix guys…?”

“The number of deaths…”

At Eud’s question, all three hunters recall their memories.

“I’m not sure, but Dian, Eliri, Anna, and Alex—they were still alive during the melee…!”

“I remember… All ten of the Phoenixes were maintaining their formation somehow even after the ‘boss monster’ appeared.”

“Probably, I think he was alive…”

I’m not sure, but at least all ten of them were alive the last time I saw them.

Eud let out a big sigh of relief inside the helmet.

Afterwards, they heard that a significant number of survivors of the expedition had dispersed after the appearance of ‘Main Centipede’. And the other hunters who were confirmed dead as well.

“I heard that the first occurrence of the incident was ‘Safe Zone 4’.”

“Yeah…….”

A safe area found by leading investigators in the dungeon.

There are special manastones there, so it is said that it is a place where monsters’ access is minimized.

Such places are numbered from 1 to 8 in order of proximity to the entrance.

However, it is said that such a safe zone was artificially broken this time.

“Do you know what this potion is?”

Alberto took a Stimpak Potion from his holder.

All three of them seemed to understand the contents and intent of the potion.

“If it’s to live…!”

“Good. The road to the top – The shortest distance we’ve come down, can be approximated by the corpses of insects. I can’t be sure, but I’m sure there won’t be any monsters. So, first of all, head to safe zone 2 somehow. In the guild and in the Cathedral Church, we decided to form an additional rescue team.”

All three took potions from Alberto.

“We can’t help out any further than this, as we will continue our search. From then on, it’s up to you.”

“””Yep……..!”””

gulp-!

The eyes of the hunters who drank the Stimpak Potion turned red in an instant.

Some vomited at the rushing Awakened ingredients.

But after a while, the medicine starts to turn around.

Now the pain in the body will gradually disappear.

“Then, head straight up!”

“““Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

Dada-da-da-dat-!

The three hunters raised their weapons and ran towards the upper route.

Of course, it took Eud and Alberto four hours to get here too.

Even if they did not achieve the correct attack, only infiltration and annihilation, that was enough.

It will probably take a considerable amount of time for them to climb.

“……At least half of the expedition is not here.”

About 25-30. That would be the number of those still alive in the current dungeon.

Eud hoped that, somehow, all ten of them were still alive.

Even with the appearance of danger S, no one died.

Hope is enough.

Eud and Alberto quickly moved further inside.

The current location is an additional 30 minutes from Safe Zone 4.

flock of insects. There were also considerable remains of zombies around.

But from here on, the road gets more complicated.

According to the map, the number of oysters increased from this area.

‘Obviously everyone thought there were too many oysters.’

There, the two realize ‘change’.

“From this point on, it’s completely different from the map.”

The number of underground routes I heard was about ten.

But the place we’ve reached now – at least twenty.

Alberto felt the illusion that the more he counted, the more the holes were getting bigger.

Of course, the time of the incident and the shortage of personnel.

Also, considering the degree of injury, the survivors would not have been able to go very deep.

But from now on, that’s a different matter.

Should I choose only one route among these holes and dig again?

Are there any dead ends along the path you have chosen?

It takes tens of minutes to cross the area once.

until you arrive. until you have explored them all. Can they all survive?

Alberto had been thinking about it for a while.

Eud took off his helmet.

The boy’s face, sweating with fatigue, is revealed.

“Eud?”

“Ugh-!”

He immediately realizes what Eud is going to do.

Alberto reflexively covered his ears.

“——–!!!!!”

Sound waves echo around the surroundings.

…but surprisingly, it wasn’t binge drinking.

no. When Alberto opened his blocked ears, there was no sound.

Alberto knows. Eud has a very good sense.

He said that his sense of taste was obviously blurry, but maybe that made him more focused on other senses.

As he did when he saved the Hunters earlier, he often senses things that are unknown to his general sense.

That is, Eud is-

He was able to grasp the information using the ‘inaudible sound’ made now.

Eud closed his eyes and focused on his hearing.

He gradually picks up the reflected sound.

He examines the number and location of those who exist inside.

“This……..!”

“Originally, it was used to fight monsters with good ears – wow, I’m sorry! I used it without even discussing it!”

“No, it’s okay, it’s okay! So, has the material been confirmed?!”

“It’s not all. And I don’t know if I went any deeper…”

Recalling the sound that had returned gradually, Eud pointed his finger in the direction where he felt “human.”

“There are a total of six places that can be reduced. Within an hour of each, there are survivors.”

“I’m glad we’ve reduced the number of searches to six!”

Alberto nods his head, confirming the holes Eud pointed to.

“But there is one problem.”

“Problem?”

Eud put his helmet back on right away.

——– Kigigigigigigigi.

Perhaps Alberto also felt that intimidation.

“These guys are also nearby…”

“…that’s a real problem.”

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The holes drilled at the top are collapsing.

A huge object appeared there.

The word that came to Eud’s mind the moment he saw it was, after all, the word ‘super-large centipede’.

The entire body is made of upper.

Above the reddish upper, there was a hole in the heat that seemed to explode at any moment.

A monster that looks like dozens of huge wagons joined together.

They each move with their wriggling legs.

Countless legs climbed the wall, breaking magic stones.

fluttering its antennae,

It opened its huge teeth and let out a cry.

A different pressure from the monsters I’ve encountered so far.

A boss monster that cannot be compared with monsters up to risk A.

[——–Saga Gaga Gaga!!!]

Mine Centipede.

A “risk S” that had occurred in this dungeon appeared in front of me.

“okay. They said they were the first to be found here!”

“Alberto, it’s not just one!”

Then there is a roar from another hole.

Smoke came out of the hole on the other side as well.

Red carapace monsters rise with the heat.

Two additional demon centipedes appeared and crossed with their kin, which appeared first.

Red light fills the dungeon, which maintained a subtle glow with manastones.

“Eud, the characteristics of Mine Centipede that I spoke of before departure. Do you remember?”

“‘Most of the body has a burning property’. ‘Toxic to each leg’. ‘Creating an explosion in the red upper’. And above all-”

[Gaga Gaga Gaga…!][Shaga Gaga Gaga Gaga!!!]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Mine Centipede, the first to appear, slammed towards the floor.

It causes an explosion from the upper, and it is slammed down at a speed completely unexpected for its size.

“-Very ferocious!”

“Almost all insect monsters are like that!”

“Because it’s all dirty!”

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

rumble rumble!!

Avoiding the giant centipede that was stuck in the ground, Eud and Alberto split in two.

Alberto kicks off the wall, and Eud uses the Mana Stone as a stairway to get ready for battle at once.

But the attack had just begun.

The other two Mine Centipedes split in two and started climbing the wall.

Then, along with a rumble, it shows its snout to the two of them with a tremendous movement.

Alberto quickly avoided it and swung his sword.

“Ahhh-!”

🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

The sword was swung continuously toward the upper in an instant.

One Mine Centipede roared, bursting with sap.

[Keeeeeeeeeeek!]

“Is that a boss-level defense?”

The damage is done, but the inner skin is not easily exposed.

Insect-type monsters with uppers have a stronger defense as their grade increases.

This highly violent insect monster was a boss monster that inevitably required a long battle.

Eud also steps on the protruding magic stones and throws himself into the air.

And swinging his legs like a scythe, he slammed it down into the crevice of the centipede’s head—the gap that the upper had not filled.

——– Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Bubbly boo boo bum bum!!

Explosions erupting from various places at the same time as they touched.

However, since the body was hardened with magical power, it was protected to some extent.

The armor of Eud’s phonyx uniform also reduces explosion damage.

However, it was also difficult for Eud to score a critical hit with ease.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“It’s not usually hard.”

“And then there’s the explosion. this…….”

After returning to the ground, Eud and Alberto confronted the Mine Centipedes again.

“The biggest problem is, there must be two more besides these guys.”

As if they were planning to attack again at any time, the Mine Centipedes flashed their eyes.

Rather, the people who thought it was food were angry that they had damaged their uppers.

It is radiating more hostility than when it first appeared.

“……Eud. I have an offer, would you like to hear it?”

“According to Alberto-sama’s opinion, I.”

“Good answer. -Then let’s go first.”

“Yeah. ……Yeah!?”

“Uh-huh, didn’t you say you followed your opinion, Eud?”

Before Eud could give a proper answer, Mine Centipede charged again.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

With the sound of the dungeon wall being destroyed, vibrations echoed everywhere.

Eud and Alberto, who dodged the charge, took advantage of the gap and hurriedly continued their conversation.

“Are you okay?!”

“It’s more of a problem with the remaining two attacking the survivors. I’ll stop the three here, and you’ll be rescued and you’ll be dealing with the two remaining. And tell me frankly. Your job will probably be harder!”

“Ahaha……!”

“More than anything… ‘It’s not like there are only these guys in this dungeon’.”

Whirly Rik-! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!

With the tongs on its snout, the Mine Centipede, which was rapidly approaching, was pushed back by Alberto with his sword.

A huge Mine Centipede was pushed against the wall with a powerful blow.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

“Get it done as quickly as possible, half of the Stimpak Potion! Get it!”

Eud quickly grabbed the potion holder that Alberto had thrown.

In the dungeon, Alberto had decades of experience.

Even Eud is right to follow his judgment of the situation.

And, Eud’s thoughts were not much different.

One will deal with these three, and the other will go to the rescue—Eud judged that too.

“Then I’ll go first, Alberto-sama!”

As there were only two people, the moment of division would come eventually.

As soon as Eud replied to Alberto, he headed inside one of the six paths he had narrowed down earlier.

But would it have been natural? Eud headed inward, the mine centipedes chasing after him.

“Where are you aiming?!”

– Alberto blocks it.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

[Kee-e-e-e-e-e!]

Due to the intense pressure from the sword, the leg of one Magic Centipede was severed by spraying poison.

At this moment, the hostility of the dangerous S monsters was focused on Alberto.

Seo-Gung-!!

Alberto aimed his silver sword at the Mine Centipedes.

“Then this old man Alberto Cheros… I will kill you personally from now on. Let’s attack somewhere, S-class bug bastards!!”
