#124
124. All or Nothing (2)
After a while.
The leaders of each party gathered in the lobby.
Liman, who was twitching his lips, spoke first.
“Is it true that the guys from the other waiting room are coming?”
“Confirmed.”
“I can’t believe it…”
Edith opened her mouth.
“Han, he called us… he must have had an idea, right?”
“I have a job to do.”
I drank the water on the table and said.
“You can brush it in reverse.”
“War?”
Kishasha grinned.
I shook my head.
“Leave the response to the 1st party. You guys are ready, and if something happens, I signal and help you.”
“Will five people be enough?”
“You’ll see.”
You don’t have to try your best from the start.
If their purpose is to plunder, act accordingly.
The meeting ended quickly.
There is nothing special about it. Auxiliary and gathering heroes take refuge in their quarters.
Except for the 1st party, combat jobs wait at the equipment workshop. Until I give you a signal.
came out to the square.
I could see downstairs through the glass floor.
The personnel of the equipment factory are rushing into the dormitory.
“I was bored, but it worked out.”
Belquist touched the scabbard.
There was already a glimpse of life in his blunt face.
“Don’t use it carelessly.”
“If not at this time, when do you use it?”
“You can’t kill it. There’s so much to do.”
Killing is suboptimal.
Until the 40th floor, the hero protection system is applied. Even if a hero dies during PvP, he only suffers a certain amount of penalty and does not disappear.
“anyway.”
I looked around.
The members of the 1st party, including Belquist, are gathered.
The delivery of instructions has already been completed. There was a will to fight in each of their eyes.
“Don’t be too scared. It’s no different from a mission.”
“Jjondanyo. I’ve done all sorts of things, but that’s about it!”
“Then begin.”
Jenna gave a vigorous salute and went down the stairs.
Iolka grumbled and followed, followed by Nerissa and Belquist. Everyone except me headed downstairs.
‘There is no need to go out all at once.’
Even if someone dies, it will lead to great damage.
The death penalty permanently lowers all stats and skills. It was a risk equivalent to death, turning a promising player into waste in an instant.
‘Alone is enough.’
We also have insurance in case of emergencies.
The rest is just waiting. I slipped my leather gloves on and slowly descended the stairs. The destination is the dimensional gap on the second floor. It’s a place for them to enter.
There are dark shadows everywhere in the dimensional gap.
I hid on one side of the shadow and lowered myself.
5 minutes later.
[Danger!]
[Master, an unauthorized airship has invaded the waiting room!]
[The airship ‘Capitalism’ is calling.]
giggling!
The dimensional vortex glowed blue, and the front of the airship appeared.
[There is no alarm facility.]
[The Master’s Hero does not detect an intrusion. If you are ambushed, you can take a lot of damage. Be careful!]
The scale is not large.
Even so, it was more than 10m long, reminiscent of a medium-sized merchant ship. The airship slowly pulled out of the whirlpool with a flag wrapped around the mast. The red flag depicts a skull wearing an eyepatch.
“Is anyone there?”
“Hahaha, did you get the bastard this time too? You don’t even need to act!”
A hearty laugh escaped from the airship.
clap. Kirik Kirik. The wooden stairs started to come down.
‘hmm.’
I lowered my stance even further with my hand on the scabbard.
Five men are coming down the stairs. He wore red leather armor and carried various weapons including a sword on his back.
“No welcome! It’s trivial.”
“According to my experience, the warehouse seems to be on the first floor!”
A short man opened the door at the bottom of the airship.
A large cart appeared.
“Bring a large chest full of gold coins.”
“That’s right.”
He pulled out the cart, revealing his only three front teeth.
“You know the eyewitness?”
“Yes, kill half of them and bring them back, right?”
“Draw it. Take it and synthesize it.”
“If those bastards attack…”
“I’m going to bounce quickly and come back.”
‘also.’
They are not considering all-out war.
What you want is plunder targeting the warehouse.
Four out of five people pulled the cart.
They plan to go down to the warehouse on the first floor, load up on gold and valuable materials, and then return. If you run into someone, you will immediately try to cover your mouth. To stun or half-kill them, then kidnap them.
‘and.’
If it doesn’t feel right, it pops up right away.
hit and run. It was a pretty brutal way. Without an alarm system to alert the hero of an enemy invasion, the Master has no choice but to stamp his feet and watch.
“Haaam~”
The guy leaned back against the airship and yawned.
The sense of crisis is not visible. I hid myself and went near the airship, then slowly walked out.
“Did I die because I was sleepy… huh?”
His eyes lit up at me.
“Fuck, shit! The airship bar…”
I grabbed him by the hair, pulled him, and put my knee on his face.
Blood splattered with the sound of teeth breaking. Then, he slammed his face into the airship’s wall. puck! puck! puck! Wooduk! It broke her arm and then kicked her. His new model slid across the floor while spraying blood.
Giing.
The airship began to move.
I climbed up holding on to the end of the folded stairs.
I let go of my hand and made a big leap. He got on deck. I immediately ran to the control room.
bang!
As I kicked in the door, I saw a man operating the device.
“What are you so busy with?”
“This, this crazy…!”
The guy drew a knife and swung it.
Snug. I dodged lightly, grabbed his wrist, and bent it the other way around. Ugh.
“Quaaaaagh!”
He sat down holding his wobbly wrist.
I kicked him hard in the face like a soccer kick. Blood spattered on the glass window.
“Off, uh, uh uh!”
“Are all seven puppies brought in?”
“I-I don’t know…”
there’s no way you don’t know
I grabbed the broken wrist tightly.
“Ouch!”
“Tell me. Before you get killed.”
“All, all seven!”
‘There is no magician.’
I clicked my tongue.
A dazzling hologram floated above the device board in front of me.
It seemed to be in automatic mode with simple controls. I looked down at the man who was crouching on the floor weeping.
“When are you leaving?”
“Woah, originally it’s 10 minutes later! But if I touch it in 5 minutes…”
puck!
I hit the back of the man’s head with the scabbard.
A man with a broken head fell on his face, bleeding.
‘Is it automatic operation?’
work got boring
The airship is currently stationary, but it will automatically move after a certain amount of time. And it will go back to where it came from.
“It’s Han.”
<How did it go?>
“It worked out well. I don’t think you need help. Just wait 10 minutes and then go back and sleep. Let’s not wait.”
<What are you talking about? Don’t you wait?>
Communication was cut off.
I pressed various buttons on the device board.
[Beep! Manipulation is prohibited.]
[Beep! Manipulation is prohibited.]
[Beep! Manipulation prohibited… … .]
‘It’s eaten.’
The only thing that can be done is to immediately start and descend the stairs.
I tied the stunner with a rope and dragged him along. I locked myself in a suitable storage room on board. The same goes for the baby lying down. I went down the aisle, then lifted it and moved it. The bloodstains were roughly wiped off with a rag.
[Master, the enemy is trying to plunder!]
[‘Dragon’s Heart (lower grade)’ is taken out!]
[‘Black Dragon’s Scales (C) X 3’ are taken out!]
[‘Magic parts (lower class) X 2’ are taken out!]
[‘Black Dragon’s Bone (C)’… … .]
[‘300,000G’… … .]
I’m picking out the expensive ones and taking them with me.
After a while,
Rumbling.
The sound of cartwheels was heard in the distance.
I hid behind the pillars on the deck. As I poked my face out over the railing, they were coming back, pulling a cart full of chests.
“It’s worthwhile today.”
“This is enough to get you a drink and a woman!”
“Cheolkeol, I can’t see a single mouse. There is no Hogu like this.”
Each of them walks with a brightly colored face.
“Hyung-nim, we… um? Where did you go?”
“Aren’t you already sleeping in and spreading out? He said to leave it to watch over this! Eh!”
The stairs are already down.
After putting the cart in the storage compartment at the bottom, they came up to the deck. As if waiting, the airship started moving.
“Are you leaving early today?”
One question was raised,
“What do you know? It’s better to go quickly!”
naturally buried.
I took a light breath.
Airships are headed for a dimensional vortex.
[Danger!]
[The airship ‘Capitalism’ is departing with the Master’s items loaded!]
The system message flashed red, but Amkena had already exited the game. You will only be able to see the log after reconnecting.
Flash!
The whole body was under strong pressure, and the background changed in an instant.
Gray skies and barren lands. It was outside the tower.
The airship spread its wings and quickly advanced through the sky.
I wonder if it flew like that for about 10 minutes.
<Dimensional jump carried out!>
The mechanical boy’s voice rang out.
The landscape changed again. Numerous typhoons were raging beneath the ground.
[Dimension 3847 – Harla]
Hundreds of meters ahead, the dimensional vortex is spinning.
It was an unfair destination.
He stuck his head out of the pillar.
I checked the deck. A person leans his arm on the railing.
The other four were not seen to have entered the ship.
‘This should be enough.’
I got up and left.
The man leaning against the railing murmured.
“Even Master wasn’t like this before. The world has changed. Isn’t that so… Huh?”
puck!
I kicked the man in the back.
“Now, wait, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
The overturned man’s body fell endlessly.
I turned my back and walked to the inboard door.
Opened the door.
“100 million!”
A bloody guy came out.
Blood is leaking from the broken teeth.
“You’re weak. What the hell is this bastard?”
Belquist grinned.
“Did you really have to hide in a chest?
“What’s the situation?”
“This one is the last one.”
Belquist pointed the blade at the man.
“Ki, wait. Help me. If you kill me, there will be retribution. If you don’t want to die!”
Kwajik!
The sword pierced his shoulder and lodged itself in the deck.
“Huh uh uh!”
The man rolled his eyes and trembled.
Belquist spat.
“It’s nothing but worms.”
“This one is also finished.”
Jenna came out on deck.
The dagger was soaked in blood.
“They’re worse than I thought. They’ve done this countless times.”
“I was very nervous because they said they were coming in, but what… I’m disappointed.”
Even Iolka and Nerissa.
All members of party 1 gathered on the deck.
“Brother, we were going to go into the station. There are only 5 of us, so is that okay?”
It did change a bit from what I expected.
The original plan was to subdue the airships from within, and then gather elite personnel to counterattack. However, since it was an automatic operation, there was no room to load other party members.
“There must be at least dozens of people in the enemy territory. As a result of the interrogation, they said that if you adjust well, you can return to the waiting room. Once you go back and fix it…”
“No. There is no meaning of surprise.”
I shook my head.
“They’ll notice if you’re late.”
“then…….”
“It goes like this. And it’s over in one go.”
A few blows won’t stop a hunter.
On the contrary, it will only exacerbate it. It doesn’t matter if the power is strong or weak. If someone like that clings to you, it will get in the way of your mission. There is only one way.
“But there are only five of us…”
“Not enough.”
Belquist cut off and kicked the man at the feet.
“These bugs can be finished off with a bunch.”
“It was definitely weak.”
I looked at him.
The reason why it is weak compared to the level is simple. Because I didn’t train properly.
If you’ve given up on top climbing, you don’t have to be tenacious like us.
“Decision?”
“Decisions and what.”
I put my hand on the sack.
“You’ve come this far, are you going empty-handed?”
“That’s an obvious answer.”
There is no turning back now.
“Shake it all off and burn it all. Dry the seeds.”
There is one rule about hunters that I learned while running Niflheim.
‘Stay till the end. until folded.’
The dimensional vortex was swallowing the airship.
