Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 601 Third Record (4)

Hair covering the face as if wearing a wig.

And a single eye revealed among the scattered hairs.

Kuung-!

Height is about 6m.

Although it already exceeds the standard for a large monster, its body size is felt to be much larger thanks to its exaggeratedly long arms.

Well, at any rate, it will be smaller than Hipramagent.

Kuung-!

Still, the pressure is on a different level.

Because I know that guy better than anyone else.

Siliot, Lord of Silence.

A 5-story hierarchical monarch armed with tricky gimmicks.

To me, an ‘explorer’ who uses water purification, it is like a disaster.

It is impossible to counter with ‘Binding’ magic like when dealing with Ricardo Lüchenprague, a ‘traitor’ who possesses this guy’s essence… ‘Why is

he here?’

Regardless of the doubts I felt, the action was immediate.

Tadat.

The moment he makes eye contact with the guy, he steps back and hugs Erwen.

And….

“…!”

Give simple instructions using hand signals instead of using your voice.

While looking at the wizard Gahyun, whose eyes I just happened to meet.

‘We will attack.’

‘Very strongly.’

If it were Clan Anavada members, they would have been able to give more complex instructions using hand signals, but this is something that doesn’t change even if you complain.

Fortunately, Gahyun carried out the instructions as soon as she received them.

“Gahyun Vesilus casted the ancient magic [Katuka’s Thunderstorm].”

Katuka’s Thunderstorm.

It is one of the ancient magics that Gahyun, who plays the role of a ‘wizard’, can use. It is an instant magic with no casting time.

Of course, it was not lacking in power at all.

Flash-!

Several flashes of light covered the entire canyon as if the sky was about to collapse.

Cooooooooooooo!

A huge vibration, not a sound, touches the skin.

Also at the same time.

“The character has escaped the range of the [Unspoken Spirit].”

Siliot, the Lord of Silence, who was climbing the cliff, falls down and the sound returns.

“Uh oh…”

First of all, after using magic, Gahyun had a somewhat stupid look on her face.

“Hmm… It’s a strange monster.”

The village chief was carefree.

Oh, come to think of it, there were no hierarchical monarchs in the labyrinth of the era in which this man lived?

According to the records engraved on the Stone of Honor, Hierarchs began to appear in the Labyrinth after Abyss Searcher Limenin reached the 10th floor.

“Lord Vesilus, do you know the identity of that monster?”

“If I saw it correctly… that monster we just saw is the Great Demon Lord’s Hierarchy Lord… ”

“Hierarchy Lord… ?”

The village chief tilted his head as if it was an unfamiliar word.

However, there was no time to kindly explain.

“What are you doing! “Follow me quickly!”

We have to get out of here first.

Even if you have to catch that guy someday, the top of a narrow canyon is not a good place to fight him.

In the first place, I needed time to organize my thoughts.

“Hold on tight, Erwen.”

“yes yes!”

Soon, he quickly moves forward while holding Erwen in his arms.

Tadat.

As I started running in earnest, I noticed one more new change. When a monster appeared, I tried to just break through somehow.

‘Am I fortunate among misfortunes…’

Perhaps it was an aftereffect of the appearance of the Lord of Silence, but the monsters blocking the road disappeared everywhere.

“Baron, please tell me where you are going now!”

“Going down.”

“under…? “There will be a hierarchical monarch waiting below!”

“So I’m going. “If you fight, flat ground is more advantageous than a canyon.”

“Are you sure… you want to fight that guy?”

Gahyun shouted as if it was nonsense, but I had only one thing to say.

“Then is there another way?”

“What a fucking class monarch! Even if hundreds of people prepare and catch him, he still ends up as a victim! The five of us are going to catch that guy? Even though this fairy here can’t do even one person’s job? ”

In fact, it is not an incomprehensible reaction.

There is no need to mention the notoriety of the hierarchical monarchs.

The talk became more heated… I guess it was because of the field effect.

Since I don’t have time to treat the hammer, I decided to just go easy on it this time.

“Gahvin Vesilus!”

At that time, the village chief’s shout echoes through the canyon.

The village chief’s words are something I’ve never heard before.

“Yes yes…?”

Looking at Gahyun, who was completely dumbfounded by this, the village chief spoke strongly.

“Stop complaining and follow what the Baron says. “This is an instruction.”

“Yes? Ha, but…”

“Are you saying you’re going to disobey?”

“Oh no… I’m sure there must be a way other than fighting him.”

“Just answer yes or no. I just want you to be careful. “Today’s answer will determine your future.”

“…I will follow.”

However, thanks to the village chief’s timely intervention, the situation calmed down quickly.

Normally, in times like this, there would be no answer if the command authority was shaken, but fortunately, the village chief seemed to know that fact as well.

Tadat.

Soon the village chief increased his speed and came next to me, who was in the lead.

“Looking at that guy’s reaction, he seems like a very tough enemy. I guess he has his own thoughts, right?”

“…Of course.”

To be exact, I’m still thinking about it.

Anyway, it’s not like we’re already in a state of despair.

Because the essential elements for a raid are already in place.

‘Priest Wizard Knight.’

The most important human resources when raiding the Lord of Calm. Of course, there are still too few people to catch it with five people, but…

unlimited divine power and ancient magic.

The village chief also shows overwhelming power throughout this chapter, perhaps because his stats have skyrocketed.

At this level, the minimum conditions are met.

‘The problem is me and Erwen…’

Still, if we think positively, there is a high possibility that he will have some ‘role’ in the raid.

The [Dungeon & Stone] I know was that kind of game.

‘Once the boss battle begins, I’ll have to run a raid with those three and check their angles.’

For reference, the most important thing here is the shrine.

If you use your infinite divine power well, it will be possible to hold on somehow—.

“I’m manaaaaaaaaaa!! “Stop it!!”

At that time, there was a commotion behind me.

When I stop running and look back, I see Gahyun and the Archbishop who have stopped before I know it.

No, not exactly…

“The archbishop suddenly stopped and is not moving!”

Gahyun looks worriedly at the archbishop who has stopped as if he is possessed by something.

“Stay aside for a moment.”

I put Erwen down and approached to check, but the archbishop just stared blankly into space.

It is clear that there is a problem somewhere.

‘what?’

The Lord of Silence doesn’t have a pattern like this?

Is it something different because it’s inside the crack?

Then there are too many variables—.

“baron.”

At that time, the archbishop suddenly opened his mouth.

‘Oh, surprise…’

I calmly checked the situation while secretly stroking my shocked chest.

“Is the Archbishop okay? “What was the situation?”

If there was a problem, there was a need to quickly find a solution.

“Don’t worry. I’m fine. In fact, it’s in better shape than ever.”

What is this again?

“…What does that mean?”

“Literally. God’s miracles are filling my whole body. It made me wonder if I had ever been so fulfilled in my life…”

Judging by the look in his eyes, the archbishop was still in a state of disbelief.

Ha, I really don’t have time to be like this.

“baron.”

Archbishop Cha, who was contemplating what to do with the archbishop, moves his gaze and looks at me.

“Do you, Baron, have any intention of serving something other than the heroic spirits of your ancestors?”

Those are the exact words the Lord of Silence said to me earlier before he appeared. However, this time, as soon as I heard it, I felt a sense of discomfort somewhere.

I’m not sure yet, but…

“I’m just asking just in case.”

I needed to check.

“Are you sure that ‘something else’ you were talking about is Rhea Atlas?”

The Archbishop was silent.

Just as if you were answering my own question.

Ssaaaaaa –

thousands of black particles rise from the darkness of the labyrinth. And they gather to the archbishop’s side as if to give a blessing.

Unfortunately, I know the identity of that effect.

An effect that occurs when you change jobs to a priest of Karui.

Sooooooo much!

The archbishop smiled brightly and stretched out his hand toward the black particles.

There was no point in denying it anymore.

Although it was so sudden and hard to believe.

“See? “God’s grace?”

The Archbishop was transferred to the priesthood of Karui.

***

「Eden Hesteia has succumbed to temptation.」

「You can use the power of Karui.」

***

My head hardens.

Suddenly, the priest on our team changed jobs to become a priest of Karui.

How should I do this?

‘Should I kill him now?’

Looking at that defenseless figure, it doesn’t seem like it would be impossible at all.

No, I feel like there is no other chance than now.

A choice had to be made quickly.

It was clear that it would be troublesome if the archbishop with infinite divine power turned into an enemy after changing to a priest of Karui.

‘But… if I kill him, is there an answer after that?’

Putting aside the question of whether it was moral okay to kill the archbishop so easily.

Without a priest, you will never be able to capture a hierarchical monarch.

But my mind is complicated.

‘Maybe you shouldn’t kill him.’

I don’t know the strategy for this crack yet.

But what if the archbishop, who turned into a priest of Karui, had to play a key role?

Impulsive choices can lead to irreversible consequences.

“The character casted [Swing].”

When I came to, my hammer was already swinging towards the top of the archbishop’s head.

A split-second decision, not a well-considered decision.

Kwasik-!

With one powerful hammer blow, half of the archbishop’s head was blown off.

But the archbishop still stood.

I wasn’t surprised because I was well aware that Karui’s priests were capable of half-head mode.

“What… what are you doing!!”

However, was Gahyun, who was watching, different?

“You attacked the Archbishop! “You are truly crazy!”

ah. He just doesn’t know what the situation is.

There was no time to explain.

‘Once more.’

I swung my hammer, but unfortunately it was blocked by the tentacles sprouting from the archbishop’s body.

A sight that looks too disgusting and unpleasant to be called a sacred spell.

“…What kind of situation is this?”

I hit the hammer a few more times, but the tentacles counterattacked, so I gave up and explained briefly.

“The Archbishop became the priest of Karui.”

“What?”

“Look. “He’s alive even though his head is half smashed.”

“Then shouldn’t we do it quickly?”

I heard you asked the archbishop what you were doing earlier.

“Count St. Red, would you give it a try?”

After quickly giving instructions, the village chief pulled out the auror and swung his sword without any questions.

But….

Quaaaang-!

That shell even blocked the aurors.

However, the village chief did not look disappointed at all.

“I think it will be possible if I do my best… but from then on, you will have to treat me like I don’t exist. Because it’s like a special move. “Do you want me to do that?”

The village chief looks at the rest as if it was all his choice.

Thanks to you, my worries deepen.

Now that he has made such an assurance, he seems likely to keep his word…

‘If the village chief disappears, there is only one wizard.’

I have to think about what happens later as well.

“You…”

Then the archbishop’s mouth opened.

“You don’t understand me at all.”

A voice without any emotion, like the old village chief’s tone of voice.

“Don’t worry. “You will soon understand.”

As soon as the Archbishop’s ominous declaration came to an end.

The Archbishop’s chest, with his spine bent backwards, opens wide as if he were receiving a ritual.

Ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-!

I knew what skill it was as soon as I saw it.

「Eden Hesteia casted [Unstable Vessel].」

Unstable Vessel.

The strongest special move possessed by Karui’s priest.

The effect of the skill is simple.

Becomes temporarily invincible during the casting time….

‘It explodes.’

In terms of range and power, it is the strongest skill that no other skill in [Dungeon & Stone] can match.

‘It’s already too late to avoid it.’

I made a decision.

Even if we give up on being the village chief, we have to stop that first.

The moment I was about to open my mouth with that thought in mind.

Kuung-!

A vibration is felt in the ground and the sound is muted.

「The character has entered the range of [Unspoken Spirit].」

「All essence skills are sealed.」

To make matters worse, even the Hierarchy Lord that was dropped earlier in this situation has reappeared….

‘I will attack. . ‘

‘Very strongly.’

I urgently send the hand signal I sent to Gahyun earlier to the village chief. But the village chief just looked at me with a troubled expression and shook his head.

Ah… Is it possible that the essence can’t be sealed?

‘Nimiral.’

Therefore, change your hand signals quickly.

‘Run away with all your might.’

‘Anywhere is fine.’

‘Survive.’

Even in my long life as an explorer, this is the first hand sign I have ever used myself.

As soon as I confirmed that everyone understood the hand signal, I picked up Erwen and stood at the bottom of the cliff.

Of course, even then, I wasn’t sure.

If I fall here, will I be able to survive?

‘Still… there’s a higher chance of survival than getting hit by that skill.’

With that thought in mind, the moment when you are about to kick off the ground and take a leap.

Kuung-!

A large hand appears from under the cliff.

I tried to jump without paying attention, but the movement of my hands was a bit strange.

It doesn’t seem like they’re targeting us.

‘uh…?’

In fact, the guy with his upper body on the street crouched down as if he was hugging the archbishop tightly.

And….

“….”

I thought he made eye contact with me for a moment.

Tuk.

Soon, while hugging the archbishop, his hands lose their strength and he falls down the cliff.

“The character is out of the range of the [Unspoken Command].”

After about 3 seconds, the distance increased and the [Unspoken Order] was lifted.

And how much time has passed?

Quaaaaaaaaaa!

An explosion like a nuclear bomb exploded from below.

“Everyone!Hold on tight!!”

The Great Demon Mirror began to collapse.
