Chapter 496 (2/2)
“Weak weak~?”
“About as strong as a Soldier Mantis nanodesu”
Tauards even while looking bored
After checking out all the staircases on second floor, we found out that the two staircases leading above led to different areas and the three staircases leading below led to the same area
“I guess the floors branch out more the more you climb up?”
“Looks like it”
The third floor housed the sauards as the second floor The area is also about as big
The deher leveled at 3-6, and sooblins in addition to those andered around alone
The group leader would always carry a bone knife, some even had bone short swords and bone axes in rare occasions
The ascending and descending staircases have similar traits as the ones on second floor
“I wonder, can Goblin-san take the stairs?”
Lulu tilted her head when she saw a pursuing deoblin stopped in its track before the staircase
“Let's give it a try”
Liza caught the deoblin and tested it out
The monster wouldn't enter the staircase no matter how hard she tried
Seizing and pushi+ng the deoblin into the staircase halted it, like it hit a wall
“Looks like thebetween floors”
The test ended with that conclusion by Arisa
The fourth floor is largely the same as the third floor
The deer at level 4-8, and roup of 2-3
Rarely there were even groups of six, with oblin Vanguard Priest er
“This is kinda like a tutorial dungeon, don't you think?”
I' more and more with Arisa's mumble above the more we climbed up
By the fifth floor, there were alroup of 2-3 They grouped ot to be around 5-10
From e know so far, we can conclude that monster levels are floor nuth would be around their level + 10~15
“Let's get to the floor above quick”
“Yeah, hold on a bit”
There's no staircases on floor 5 besides the one we took to get here, instead there's a spot with a blank zone on the Map
“It's finished with floor 5?”
“I wonder about that?”
We arrived at the blank zone while routing solothe way
“Boss room~”
“Looks like it”
The blank zone was a huge room, the door autoot inside, and a monster that seemed to be the boss appeared at the center of the room
A single level 18 <deoblin vanguard=”” knights=””>> as its guards
“Torya~”
“Wou nanodesu!”
The beastkin girls deuards in a jiffy without a hitch
“Treasure chest”
“Master, here comes treasure so I report”
“Satou-san, I found a staircase over here!”
Mia informed me about a treasure chest while Zensan about a staircase
Looks like the staircase will appear if you beat the boss
“What a weird copper coin”
“Apparently it's called Deoblin Copper Coin”
Lulu replied to Arisa's murmur
The treasure chest had a lot of copper coins engraved with deoblin's side face inside
There were also orna with [Tower Escape Orb] which was an escape item, and health potions and poison
“Geez, they just toss poison together with these stuff, scary”
“And it only got mark as a label too”
After giving our impressions about the treasure chest we climbed up the staircase that showed up at the back of the boss room
“It's like, a stage change?”
“Kind of feels like we're inside ruins”
Lulu is right, the walls on this floor have cracks running on theround, and pieces of cruround
Froh powerful demi orcs were added into the monster co deoblins
On every five floors, the ed, and there were more traps and monsters with peculiar skills
We continued our exploration as such and arrived at a wrong floor on the 15th floor
Some floors that are multiple of five don't have a boss room
We found the boss room ent back and climbed up different staircases, so it must be just how this tower has been built
What an obnoxiously made structure
“The eneher now”
“T-they are We could suffer a critical wound if we let our guard down here”
It's getting tougher for the silver ot to floor 20
“Is that so?”
Since Sera was the only one having it easy, I asked her to put holy ic enchant, afterward Lady Karina and Zensan had amonsters
Monsters in this tower are generally weak against holy ic
“It's getting longer for us to get past a floor”
“Well, the er after all”
I look up at the ceiling
“I'll see if I can break it”
I broke the ceiling apart to see if we could use it as a shortcut, but there was a zone filled with purple
The absorption rate is incoolem I sent out crumbled down in an instant
Just as I was hesitating to juan to close it up while wriggling
Its na besides the name is [UNKNOWN]
“Pokey pokey~?”
“Meddling medley nanodesu!”
Tama and Pochi tried to interfere with the restoration, but it was no use
“Magic just passed through it”
“Same with arrows as well”
Our attacks got annulled like it ith the Purple Mound
“Then–”
It instantly evaporated when I swung the Divine Sword
“Seconds~?”
But, more purple mucus immediately came out and repaired the hole
It's not like I can get past it, but we can't use anti-Godout of it anyway
We give up trying to create a short cut and go the normal way
By noric to move the point where the staircase is
We eventually arrived at floor 30 by repeating that method
“Gee, this floor sure has a lot of variety”
Arisa uard
Level 50-60 <uards reign this floor 30
At this floor, it takes soic support to beat a monster
“Hectic”
“Michan gets to act as both a healer and support unit after all”
Lulu offered a throat quenching honey water to the completely exhausted Mia
Mia, Zensan and Sera have to chant their spells, unlike h
Lulu can also use uns, she only uses force ic after battle, hence she doesn't have it as bad as the two
“Next, co~?”
“It's Myu-tan this time”
Pochi cutely confused the <uard=””>> name
“It's been a while since we have to cooperate together like this”
“Yep, it's worth the struggle to beat them”
Arisa nodded as Liza faced off against the Dragon Mutant Vanguard with the dragon spear in her hand
It onkind It's ons by huons
“<dragonic acceleration=””>> nanodesu!”
The Mutant Dragon's layered barrier got pulverized by Pochi's finisher in one hit
Thanks to the series of battle we had here, she apparently ed to finally learn her finisher which was only one step away from completion back then
Pochi as taking a pose while sot bloay by the tail attack of thedeath
“Uwaa, that thing could stillhit by that? It must have like three times the HP of an equivalent monster at Selbira Labyrinth”
“<dragonic penetrate=””>>”
Liza ed off the Mutant Dragon Vanguard's skull
“Ouchie nanodesu”
Pochi stood up like she didn't feel any dae
Looks like she juht before it hit her
“It's giving about the sa spot if they were a wee bit weaker~”
“I will go train here tomorroell!”
“Tama too~”
“Pochi is gonna train too nodesuyo!”
Arisa's complaint was met with opinions from the muscle for brain members
“You can't There are enemies with instant death attack here, remember?”
“It's okay so long you don't get hit desuwa! It was a quote by a hero fro to it if it hits you』, correct?”
<tln: a=”” corruption=”” of=”” char's=”” quote=””>
You'll die to the [Instant Death Attack] then
Gotta dodge before you get hit
“Satou-san, it's a real boss room ahead It has the usual crest on it”
“Thank you, Zensan”
What spawned at the boss roouard] on its name
It's called [Chaos Lord] It looks like the reaper outwardly
“Alright, everyone let's put our back into it!”
Arisa's yell encouraged everyone
“Everyone, sorry but this one's got Instant Death attacks”
As I couldn't let the girls be exposed to danger, I locked the Chaos Lord in a barrier and defeated it using a chain of [Implosions]
“What an awfully blunt way to kill…”
“Aamen~?”
“Soumen nanodesu”
Taether toward the vanished Chaos Lord
“Tama, take care care of trap on the treasure chest”
“Roger~”
Tama leaped out like, kyupin, and opened the treasure chest
“How is it, Lulu?”
“Just a second, I'll be done appraising shortly–this one's a ed with elementary spells, this one is an elixir? Wait no, it's a lesser elixir This one is a hydra poison, I think? There's also rings and necklaces that boost status values in here”
Besides the stuff that Lulu appraised, there were all kinds of jewels and a huge araved on them
Money found in the treasure chests here are engraved with species of bosses found in the same room
“Satou-san, I couldn't find the stairway”
Zena asked me to come with her, so I did and found a piece of paper
『Under construction We await your attendance next time』
–What is this, a game?!
I almost retorted out of reflex
“This is terrible”
“Maybe it's gonna get an update patch”
“It's probably going to be sold as a DLC”
I calether with Arisa, and took us all out with Unit Arrangement
“That sounds pretty rough”
“We got to the highest floor but didn't found anything reseeon Core”
Even though she probably knew about it already through Tactical Talk, I reported still to Hikaru as staying behind
“Welcome back, Satou-sama”
“I'm back”
Princess Sistina ca nearby
“Was there any change outside the tower?”
“The geed It'll be quicker if you see for yourself”
I went to look together with the princess and indeed, there was a change
The green geht, while the purple geht
Wonder if the purple light gets weaker by defeating the monsters inside?
Green–the color representing God Tenion er because we took Sera, God Tenion's miko, inside
Or perhaps it was because we had used holy inated from God Tenion many times over?
“–Satou Sete has made a request to destroy the tower if you could”
Hikaru conveyed the king's request
He probably judged it a danger if the monsters inside this tower overflowed outside
“Sure I don't mind, but are you sure I should do that here?”
“No, please take care of the one at Selbira first Since many people there can fend for themselves and it has the best facilities for evacuation”
Well, it's got the oldest labyrinth on the continent right next to it after all
“Got it I'll transforo there”
Now then, been a long time since the last Hero Time, isn't it?
