Chapter 75 (2/2)
Hansen's shoulders flinched at ed his command
”Stop! Stop immediately!”
The ain They seem to follow all of Hansen's orders
”Move back Move outside the range of the Cave Octopus's remains!”
”Move back Even further!”
Hansen ordered as if he was delivering ly
I'm sure they are one team
And not just any team If they have been trained to listen so well to coood chance they are an elite team
It just made me even more curious
'Are they perhaps a special forces team that the temple quietly hired?'
That was a pretty unlikely hypothesis If they were going to do that, they would have hired special forces for all 100prisoners
Then just what is their true identity?
”We need to get out of here first Hurry!”
Hansen and a couple other people supported me
The parasitic monsters jumped toward us in masses, but nobody really cared and continued to run
That i aside their own safety to save me
Of course, they probably drank so potion in advance
But I still felt a bit sorry I had been doubting these people
After they laid me down in a safe location, they started to take the parasitic monsters off of each other
”Ow, it stings!”
”Disgusting monsters!”
””Please take this one off too”
While they did that, I took a look tohere the Cave Octopus had melted
Things were progressing as I expected
”Aaaaaah!”
”Ugh! What is this?”
”Save me!”
The members who ran forward to take the priest for the in pain The re on those party members
”Stupid idiots The Cave Octopus hasn't been defeated yet”
Once you stab the Cave Octopus's eye, it's body melts away But that does not kill the Cave Octopus It actually just divides itself into thousands of et rid of its weakness
There are also over ten thousand parasitic monsters in the area as well
'Running in without a plan is just co suicide'
That is what I wanted to say
But it was already too late Tens of clearing squad members ran toward the priest, and none of them survived
Annihilation
The re at my shout, as well as the five next to me
As expected, Hansen, and the rest of the twelve volunteers were all included Hanka was still here as well
And two prisoners were still here as well, which I did not expect
Hansen was tapping his foot
It was because of the priest He seeht in front of us, but we could not save her
The rest of Hansen's posse was the same way
”We need to quickly save the priest-nim”
”Is there no method?”
”Fire Magician, create a path!”
I guess their goal really was to save the priest
Then are they really the temple's special forces? That makes no sense at all
”The Cave Octopus is pretty resistant to fire The average fire ic will not kill it Also……”
I briefly shared the Cave Octopus's characteristics The short version is, 'You are too weak to kill it'
”Then what should we do?”
Isn't it obvious? I need to hunt it
”I have a method”
”How?”
”No matter what it is, we need to hurry The Cave Octopus is starting to forain”
Hansen's posse urged me orried expression
I was seeing it as well The Cave Octopi, that annihilated the squad ether
But rushi+ng will not solve anything I needed to heal my body first I need to be able to
Thankfully, the feeling in ain
I picked up my twin blades and stood up
”Please put a mana shi+eld on me”
”Will you be okay?”
”I need to do as ic on the Cave Octopi That will help slow itsspeed a bit”
”We understand”
I felt themy body as I ran toward the Cave Octopus
Huff Huff Huff
My breathing was pretty rough
I had orously too No matter hoeak they were, there were over 10,000 of them
I still had some parasitic monsters and the Cave Octopi left
But there weren't too erous than thousands of theroup, but these sporadic er
Hansen and his posse helped kill the rest
Thanks to that, the Cave Octopus and the parasitic monster corpses disappeared quickly
Once that happened, Hansen, who had been consistently wondering if it was now okay to approach the priest, finally ran toward the priest Hanak, as well as a couple other members, surrounded him to protect him
”Priest-nim! Please wake up”
His voice was full of concern
I pushed htly tired body forward and headed to the center of the hall
I could finally see the priest's appearance Since she was unconscious, of course she looked like a mess
”Priest-nim!”
Hansen grabbed the priest's arain and started to shake it
But the way he looked was surprising
His gaze and voice was very passionate Al her to open her eyes
On the other hand, his actions were very careful It looked like he orried that anything he didthe priest
That is not soer would do The two of them must have some special relationshi+p
From the looks of it, it felt like a princess and her servent That was how cautious yet gentle each and every one of Hansen's actions were
But the priest was notShe was still completely unconscious
But she was not dead Her chest and sto in a routine
While that was going on, I heard a voice in my head
<your level=”” has=”” increased=””>
<you have=”” gained=”” the=”” light=”” breaker=””>
<you have=”” gained=”” a=”” piece=”” of=”” an=”” old=”” map=””>
The rest of the Cave Octopus's corpse must have finally disappeared
'Light Breaker, eh? I guess I did get one'
But there was soht Breaker
'Piece of an old map? What is that?'
No matter what it is, I'et a pretty good reward if I find all of the pieces and complete the map
But that is a problem for later
A bright portal was created next to the priest Since the final boss monster was completely defeated, the exit to the Demon Cave was created
”Let's head out first”
Once I said that, Hansen finally noticed the exit portal
”Sounds good Let's all quickly leave Hanka-nim, please carry the priest-nim on your back”
”Okay”
The tones were very formal, but nohis boss's order
The priest was placed on Hanka's back Hansen was very careful as he put her on Hanka's back Almost too careful
Seeing that made me question the priest's identity as well Maybe she was not just a priest, but also a wo secret
But that was not soht now
Would I be able to get answers to all of h that exit portal?
While I was thinking to myself, Hanka threw hiot in a line as we headed toward the portal
