Chapter 73 (1/2)
I couldn't stop wondering every time I saw the Hansen posse
Just who are they?
Why would they choose to coerous Demon Cave?
Based on their actions so far, their goal does not seeet the reward
I was sure about that based on howto make sure the teamas maintained
But the only reward that I could think of that orth it was the Unicorn Horn Flute
This le Unicorn's Horn Flute?
That makes no sense
'Is there perhaps an a reward that I don't know about?'
If that's the case, they will show their true colors as we defeat the final boss monster
I just need to uard up all the way until the end
'Do not get hurt Always h stamina'
I thought to iant hall
It was full of monsters
I wonder how many there are
There were at least tens of thousands ofthem like Cave Goblins, but the majority were over level 150
'shi+t, there is even a Red Snake!'
It is around level 180 It always roup, and not only does it crawl across the floor, it can freely crawl on the walls and ceiling Which rees while you fight it
Thankfully, I was able to know its weakness thanks to the draft plan
'What else is there?'
Blood Dog, Big Cat, Death Monkey, Death Cow……
It was like a gathering location for all sorts of reatly in size, color, and even level
But I did not see the bossof this size, it will be, at minimum, in the late 200s……
'Oh, is that also a monster?'
I saw a slick boulder in the center of the hall
But as I took a closer look, it was not a boulder It was squir around
'Cave Octopus!!'
I was certain It was not a boulder but the octopus's head I experienced ame, and I memorized its information from the draft plan as well
Because of that, I was hoping it would be any other monster but the Cave Octopus, but damn it, why did it have to be him?
It wasn't because he was hard to deal with
'shi+t, terrible luck'
There are two ame
One was for a quick level up, and the other was for the quest reward ite the final boss monster
I was the same way
The biggest reason was the, 'Unicorn's Horn Flute,' but I couldn't ignore the ite the boss h to have the bosslike the Golden Turtle, I could have earned a rare iteood use
My anticipation had gone up because of the Hansen posse as well If they were ai, that had to be it
But the Cave Octopus did not have anything like that
Well, one thing It dropped the 'Light Breaker,' with a low probability
If soracias for sure
Anyways, just how tall is it?
It sees should be at least three ti It would be a terrible miscalculation to think it would move slowly because it was an octopus on land Nor around like that, but once it turns to attack s move very quickly
Theis that there are a lot of different parasitic monsters around the Cave Octopus
The Bite Worm is smaller than your forearm, but they have sharp teeth that can rip off your skin with a single bite The Blood Spiders are the size of a soccer ball but can easily juet them off
They stick to you and pretty much stick a straw in your body and suck your blood
The Juggle Ant hops around like a flea as they approach you They are the size of a fist and also stick to your body and bite doith their teeth They are pretty poisonous, so a single bite can be very painful
There should be at least ten thousand of those
'It is not going to be an easy battle'
But I cannot avoid this battle I need to figure out a way to defeat them all
I lowered my presence and moved away from the hall
Eaton had a curious look on his face, but he could not speak out of caution
The two of us went back to meet up with the rest of the party
”Lower your voice The boss roup is approximately 500 meters away”
500 h for most noise to be okay
But every so often, there are really sensitive ones, so it is smart to be cautious
”What is the boss monster?”
”Cave Octopus”
”What is that?”
”This isabout it”
It is not a co that it usually doesn't come out even if the Demon Cave is open
Which mean, it is a monster you can only see if you enter Demon Caves
”It is close to level 300”
”Heeeeek!”
”A level 300 monster in a level 149 Demon Cave”
”We have no luck Spit!”
Everyone was feeling down Theyit will be impossible to return alive
The Hansen posse was the sas like the prisoners, but their expression also became darker
Which means, they would have had no prior information about the final boss oal
I can't understand them even more now
”Then what are we supposed to do from here?”
”Do we have to end up as fodder for the Cave Octopus like this?”
That is if I wasn't here
”We still have to try We can't just give up”
”Do you have a plan?”
”First, let's get rid of the other monsters There shouldn't be any more than 100,000, but there is still too many”
”Gasp! 100,000……!”
”Shhh!”
Are they trying to kill us? Why are they not cautious at all?
I lifted up ain
There really wasn't a difference with the nu monsters that would difficult to handle
The nu monsters I saere not that many
Which ood amount
Not just h, the o to me
”We just need to set up in the right place If we fight in a small area, even if it was 1,000,000 monsters instead of 100,000, ould be able to take them on”
”If you are talking about a sood”
