Return of the Frozen Player 559
Night of Owls (2)
“Okay, now you too go to your friends… … Go!”
Wood deok! Millpage, who had snapped the Ascendant’s neck, raised his body.
He trembled as he approached the players who had finished the battle.
“Ha ha ha! Should I say sorry or thank you? … Anyway, thanks to you, I was able to live!”
“Suddenly sorry. Because of the stupid leader.”
Kiora sighed and handed each of the three a small piece of paper.
“I don’t know what to say instead, but please take one of these.”
Upon receiving the paper, Mio looked at it curiously.
Christine murmured as she pondered what the paper was for.
“Ohhh, this is the golden ticket you’ve only heard about.”
– It’s my first time seeing the real thing.
The two of them seemed to know each other, so Mio asked.
“What is this?”
-This ticket allows you to ask for help from the Harlem Guild at any time.
“Mercenaries are famous for being thorough in their favors.”
Kiora added an additional explanation.
“Otherwise, it is a business that is difficult to survive. Grace and enemies, repay tenfold
There is a word to say.”
“aha.”
Mio nodded and put the golden ticket into her inventory.
“I will use it when the time comes when I need it.”
“Okay, now that the greetings are over, let’s get some sleep! I couldn’t sleep well because I was being chased. Oh yes, stay up all night. I’ll give you three more tickets.”
“You stupid leader! Neighborhood restaurants don’t give away tickets like that!”
It was a noisy night.
Two to three, three to five.
Mio looked up at the sky and narrowed her eyes.
“Dark clouds… …
It looks like it’s going to rain.
“suit.”
Mio, who woke up from sleep, rubbed her eyes and opened her mouth.
The suit who had been shifting night shifts with her turned his head.
“Haam, good morning.”
– Yes, good morning.
Perhaps because of the fierce battle last night, he woke up an hour later than usual.
Cheer La Rock.
The suit retrieved the weapons deployed near the camp and launched the ED.
– Thank you for last night.
“what… … ah.”
You saved my life.
Mio stared at him.
“Wouldn’t the suit have saved me in the same situation?”
– Of course I would have saved it.
even at the cost of one’s life
The ED, which I couldn’t bear to mark, lingered in my throat.
Mio smiled.
“Then you don’t need to say thank you. Pay me back by saving my life someday.”
– … … Isn’t that more difficult?
“If you don’t like it, don’t.”
– I never said no.
After the pointless conversation, the suit stood up.
– Then I’ll go hunting for breakfast.
“Oh, then I will cook.”
– … … no. If you feed too delicious food from the first day, you shouldn’t raise your expectations.
“hmm.”
Mio nodded.
“I heard that, too. then
Shall I come hunt?”
– Take a break today. You fought like that yesterday.
When the suit left the camp, Mio, who was left alone, took out her secret weapon again.
‘How far did I think yesterday?’
okay.
I was obviously thinking that the form of a non-level person made no sense in terms of common sense.
‘But to call them all nonsense… …
All the herbivores before the final chapter are complete
It was high and smooth.
It was also the biggest reason she couldn’t give up on ‘purple mineral water’.
‘If only I could get a unique simbeop suitable for this class.’
Because I was convinced that I could become much stronger than I am now.
“Whoa.”
While Mio is concentrating on studying secrets.
Christine, who had been sleeping soundly, slowly opened her eyes.
He quietly slipped out of his sleeping bag and surrounded
looked around
Millpage and Kiora are asleep, and the suit is nowhere to be seen.
All he could see was Mio’s defenseless back.
Christine, lost in thought while looking at her, secretly closed the distance.
Wow.
White divine power formed at his fingertips.
‘At once, definitely.’
The moment he slowly reached his hand toward Mio’s neck.
“You filthy and despicable bastard!”
A loud cry rang out, forcing the camp to leave.
Startled, Christine hid her hands, and Mio turned around as well.
“Ugh. What if I ate all the delicious food by myself… …
“It’s a surprise. Was it Millpage?”
“It makes a lot of noise once you talk in your sleep.”
Christine clicked her tongue and heard Mio’s voice in her ears.
“By the way, Miss Christine Lewis?”
“Yes, Miss Mio.”
“I didn’t even know you were awake. And why are you standing behind me?”
Christine hurriedly opened her mouth at the soft reprimand in her voice.
“Ah, that. I saw a bug, so I tried to catch it.”
“… … A bug?”
“yes.”
“Of course, I don’t like bugs too much. It would have been nice if Junho was there.”
With his ‘Pest Extermination (A)’ title, the bugs wouldn’t even come close.
“But from now on, when you come, please give me a sign. Otherwise, there may be misunderstandings.”
“Yes, I will be careful.”
– Today’s hunting great success.
Just in time, Chute appeared with a bird and some rabbits.
He skillfully put on an apron over his suit.
– Breakfast will be ready soon, people
wake up
From the top of the cliff overlooking the forest, the sea and the sandy beach.
The woman opened her mouth.
“What are you going to do? Shall we attack right now?”
“Hmm, that sounds like a bit of an unsportsmanlike ploy.”
The man with his windblown purple hair held down with a hat opened his mouth.
“Only three masters of the Big 5 and one gold-plated mercenary. And even Mio Tenmei… … It’s not a power to be taken lightly.”
“well. If it’s just you and me, I think we can organize things with our eyes closed.”
It wasn’t arrogance.
To be honest, I thought it would be possible to deal with those five people by myself.
“There’s even an owl over there, so it’ll be easier if we take out one of them by surprise.”
“It’s not a very good way considering the dimness.”
He can read the memories of the dead.
If the owl moves first, I will find out what it is and kill it with one shot.
“Let’s keep the identity of the owl hidden until the end if possible.”
Valencia citrine wrinkled the tip of his nose.
It was a habit that came out whenever complaints piled up.
“I hate frontal breakthroughs, and I hate using owls. What do you want to do?”
“I am not specifically opposed to a frontal breakthrough.”
Isaac Debord grinned.
“But, as I said, they aren’t easy opponents.”
He lifted his head and looked up at the sky where the dark clouds were gathering.
“It looks like the sky is on our side, so let’s wait a little longer.”
Because the moment to use 1,000% of Valencia’s abilities was approaching.
* * *
Do-do-do-do-do!
The sound of shells being fired filled the forest.
“Ah, this isn’t just a passing shower.”
Kiora, who had been hit in the face by heavy raindrops while sleeping, was annoyed.
“I think I will go at least three or three days. You’re not going to survive here for the time being, are you?”
“There is nothing I can’t do.”
Christine Lewis murmured.
“Actually, we’re not the kind of people who would gossip about getting wet in the rain.”
-Above all, there are many safety devices installed near the camp, so it might be safer here.
“Mmm”
After thinking for a moment, Millpage opened her mouth.
“Didn’t the 5 hero archmage do that? This world is the same as Frontier.”
“yes. Skaya said that this is the parallel world of Frontier.”
“Then it is.”
He immediately opened the map and pointed out a point.
“Mount Gamel. It’s about three hours’ drive from here, and there’s a huge natural cave called ‘Milla Cave’ in the frontier on this mountain. I’m not sure if there’s something similar here… … I think it might be worth checking out.”
“… … What’s up with the captain? Certainly something as big as Mila Cave would be worth hiding.”
– Hoo. Also the mercenary king. You are familiar with the geography of the Frontier Continent.
“Hahahaha! I’m embarrassed. Would you like another ticket?”
-It looks like you’re going to get scolded by Kiora, so that’s okay. So now decide O..
As the suit looked at Mio, the others also looked at her.
Maybe it was because he was the most active in the battle last night.
She nodded as she took on the role of party leader.
“Three hours isn’t bad. Let’s move.”
When the conclusion came out, the party quickly organized the camp.
Millpage thumped my chest and screamed.
“now! Then I’ll be in the lead, and Kiora will be in the rear.”
The party, assigned to their respective roles, started running.
‘It’s a bit awkward to move around with people.’
If she had been with her friends as usual, Mio would have been on top of a tree or far ahead.
It’s because it’s more efficient than moving together like this.
As she walked silently, she tilted her head.
If their senses are right, they are now gaining little by little.
‘Should I speak?’
After thinking for a moment, she shook her head.
Since the destination was a mountain anyway, it would be natural for the altitude to rise little by little.
Cuckoo, crap.
In the place where they passed, a thicket full of water began to grow at a frightening rate.
* * *
“… … Was this forest originally like this?”
After walking for a while, Mio stopped and said.
It’s already been two hours since we left the camp.
It’s not strange if you slowly see your destination
Well, the condition of the forest was a little strange.
“It sure is very foggy. Even considering the heavy rain… …
“I heard and saw it. They say it’s dark because the dark clouds block the sun, but it’s so bad you can’t see an inch ahead.”
The group looked around and threw one word at a time.
Because of the fog that covered the entire forest, it was impossible to see even 10 meters ahead.
In the meantime, the thick sound of rain that interferes with hearing and the dark vision because there is no light.
wait a minute.”
At that time, Mio’s eyes narrowed as she discovered something.
“I think we passed this thick tree.”
“Ah, that can’t be.”
Kiora waved her hand.
“You decided to run in a straight line to Mount Gamel. He said he never turned.”
“… … It is.”
Is it an illusion?
Unable to shake off the embarrassment, Mio drew out her sword.
Suck, snuck!
She said, hitting an X on a thick tree.
“It moves faster. It doesn’t feel good.”
After that, the group who increased their speed ran another 30 minutes.
Because the pace was raised to the maximum, the distance originally scheduled for three hours was covered in two and a half hours.
But what came out at the end was a mountain
It was not a tree.
-X
The group who were looking at the mark carved into the tree fell silent as a group.
– Mr. Mio?
When Mio suddenly drifted off to the side instead of the front, the worried suit followed her.
‘What kind of fog.’
He made his way through the fog, which suddenly seemed to be more numerous, and found Mio.
She was staring blankly at my feet.
-What are you looking at… … ?
The ED of the suit standing next to Mio cut off.
Whoa!
A wild wind that cannot be tasted on the ground hits the helmet.
“I got hit.”
It is nothing but the sea that hangs endlessly beneath your feet.
The suit hurriedly looked down.
A huge stem of bushes rising from the ground supported the island on which they stood.
“It wasn’t fog.”
What they thought was fog was none other than clouds.
“It was always said that it is known. I was fooled like crazy. Even my senses.”
A huge island in the sky, at least 10 km from the ground.
After confirming that the island was made up of thousands or tens of thousands of twisted bushes, Suit bit his lip.
-… … I think we know who is trapping us.
Valencia Citrine.
It was the nine thousand that the world calls the Queen of the Bushes.
