23. Day of the week dungeon (2)
As the night drew near, Aaron came to the training ground and said.
"Forgive me for being late."
"What are you sorry about?"
I muttered and threw the wooden spear.
Aaron accepted.
"If I were just a little stronger, two of them…"
"They died because they were weak. That's all."
dinner. The training ground is empty except for Jenna and Aaron. The personnel who had been training during the day ate dinner and stretched out.
I understand.
It was not usually easy to train all day long. It is human nature to want to rest when you are tired and want to sleep when you are resting.
Aaron took the spear and stabbed the scarecrow.
One attitude deserves to be called exemplary. There was no clutter in the action. That's how Aaron started the '1000 stabs' he always did.
Jenna was training at the firing range.
Practice shooting arrows quickly. It took only one second to take an arrow from the quiver of the waistband, attach it to the string, and then shoot. There are still a lot of misses, but the hit rate is increasing day by day.
I practiced swinging the real sword very slowly.
It takes about 1 minute to lower once. It's a training method I've only seen in martial arts novels, but it's incredibly helpful. I was able to know where strength goes into the body and how to fix which part.
Has it been an hour like that?
I put the sword in the scabbard.
Wipe the sweat from the nape of your neck with a towel.
Current time 9:47 PM.
My estimate is about 10 minutes before Amkena connects.
I was about to leave the training ground, but Jenna followed me.
"Is the master coming soon?"
"You're quick to notice."
"It's your brother's subordinate No. 1."
I came out to the square and picked a suitable bench anywhere and sat down.
Jenna sits down.
[Welcome to Pick Me Up!]
As soon as 10 p.m.
[Loading has finished.]
[TOUCH ! (selection)]
It's been a month since I came to this world.
It would have been a little over 10 Earth days.
Through my observations, I was able to figure out Amkena's access patterns.
The time difference between the waiting room and the earth is about 3 times. In Earth time, Amkena was online 3 times a day, morning, noon and evening.
Based on this, it is possible to create an access prediction table for Amkena, but the sample is still insufficient. It will gradually become clear as time goes on. Now, it was at the level of hitting with a sense.
For reference, time on stage flows in real time.
If it had been a threefold difference there, I would have died yesterday.
[These… The Master told me to come to the plaza when I log in! It's a very good master!]
Isel appeared and said.
[Compared to him, our Loki… I hope the other guys will follow suit. Anyway, good job on yesterday's battle! Breaking through the survival mission on the 5th floor with trash, after all, Master of Masters! The cap was cool.]
A cap.
It's an expression of time.
[ah! radish! Ton! Cheeky, cheeky! I'm struggling to the bone, but I'm going to spread out in the dorm? I won't leave you alone!]
"Leave me alone. They all come out on their own when you call."
Anyway, the number of people who sortie for battle is limited.
[Ah, I got it. Otherwise, it's okay.]
"What kind of wind did he blow into?"
"It's a trade secret, dude."
Jenna looked at me suspiciously, but then sighed and relaxed.
"So, is today a day dungeon?"
[Wait a minute! The master started manipulating it.]
Issel disappeared.
[Form a party.]
[Drag and drop heroes!]
['Han( )' joins 'Party 4'!]
['Jenna( )' joins 'Party 4'!] [
'Louis ( )' to 'Party 4'…]
'Dungeon of the week.'
nothing to see
[Open the space-time gap!]
The front door opened with a bang.
Isel came back and shouted for the plaza to leave.
[Louis Joffrey Owen Nawat!]
After a while, three men came out to the square with trembling faces.
I was resting, but it seems I was interrupted.
[The five of us enter the space-time rift. Execution!]
"Five people? The two of them and us?"
Jenna blinked.
Those are people that Jenna, who is staying on the first floor of the main dungeon, has hardly ever seen. Those three also lowered their heads, as if we were uncomfortable.
I entered the gap of time and space.
After a while, four people including Jenna came along.
[Climb the tower and save the world!]
[Main dungeon: Current number
of floors to climb – 5] [Dungeon feast that changes every day!]
[Day dungeon: Kendert Forest (11 hours)]
[Collect various rare materials!]
[Exploration Dungeon]
[Cannot access! Clear the 10th floor of the main dungeon.]
'As expected, it's opened.'
The mirror in the middle, which had been painted gray, regained its color.
It was the passage of the daily dungeon.
"Are you fighting with me?"
"So, his name is…"
"Owen."
He was a common middle-aged man you see everywhere.
He is looking at me with a nervous expression.
"If it's your strength, I don't think we'll be of much help…"
"Hold on to your worries. You guys don't have to fight."
"Then I hope."
Of course, that doesn't mean just watching.
The mirror in the middle began to glow.
When the light went out, we were in an unfamiliar forest.
['Party 4' has entered the Daily Dungeon Kendert Forest (lowest level). They will collect materials and come back!]
[Tips/Dungeon types vary depending on the date. Please check!]
"Where are the enemies? Is it a special mission like the 5th floor?"
Jenna looked around with a sharp face.
I pulled Jenna's cheek.
"Mahah, Geohaehyo!"
"It's funny, why?"
"She's crying!"
"This is a place called the Daily Dungeon. It's a place to gather ingredients."
I looked around.
An unidentified circle with a radius of about 3 m is swaying behind his back. It shimmered with iridescent light and distorted the surrounding space.
"What, what, this?"
"Hmm."
I threw a small pebble into the space.
['Han( )' collects 'Garbage (F)'.]
[Tips/No trash required. Throw it away.]
He snapped a large branch from a nearby tree.
I threw the cut branches.
['Han( )' collects 'twig'.]
[Tips/Twig items can be processed into wood by collecting 100 pieces. Only a carpentry shop is required.]
"Okay."
"What? Please explain to me too."
"Throw the materials you've gathered there. Things like tree branches. Then they'll be piled up in the warehouse. You'll make items with them."
I broke off another twig and threw it.
['Han( )' collects 'twigs'.]
"Is that really the end?"
I nodded.
While the three of them were bewildered, they broke off nearby tree branches and began tossing them at the portal. A system message immediately came to mind.
In fact, you need tools such as an ax or a saw for smooth farming here. Even if you break a thousand branches, it is less than one log. But since Amkena didn't let me hear the tools, I can't help it.
"Really, is that enough? No need to fight?"
"You're different. Just follow me."
"Sheesh, I thought I was hungry for the first time in a while."
The three of them rubbed their chests as if somewhat relieved.
This kind of labor would be much better than fighting monsters in blood. We left the three of them alone and headed into the forest.
"Where are you going?"
"To hunt."
"Hunting? Which one? Wild boar? Deer? Rabbit? Will we finally be able to eat meat!"
"It's not that hunt…"
"Finally found!"
Jenna's eyes lit up and she suddenly started running.
"Wait, meat!"
Jenna ran from tree to tree. In his right hand, he is holding a bow loaded with arrows.
I followed Jenna.
Jenna was making her way quickly, jumping over tree vines and through the grass, but not too far behind.
A deer is grazing near a beautiful tree in the distance.
The deer, which was munching on the grass, found Jenna and jumped in amazement. But in an instant, one of Zena's arrows lodged in the deer's leg.
Jenna jumped over the tangled branch with a triangle jump. I slashed the branches at once with my sword and followed them. Not far away, a deer was walking with a limp.
"sorry!"
With a face that didn't feel sorry at all, Jenna put an arrow through the deer's neck.
The deer let out a plaintive scream and sprawled across the grass. Jenna licked her lips at the fallen deer.
"It must be delicious."
"…."
"Don't you think so too? That chewy texture, bursting gravy! If you grill it, it's a quick meal!"
'What is it?'
No matter how good Chloe's cooking skills were, potatoes alone were not enough.
"You, don't you know how to slaughter?"
"Of course. It's been years since I've noticed."
Jenna pulled a dagger from the belt at her waist. He cut the blade against the deer's carotid artery, and blood gushed out.
"After draining the blood like this, I peel off the skin and remove the intestines. After that, you can cut it to make it easier to eat."
"Separate all the ingredients and put them in the portal. Don't miss it."
"Where are you going?"
"Go to business."
"Then me too!"
"You hunt. I'm tired of eating only potatoes. If it's hard to carry the ingredients alone, call them. It's a hundred times better than branches."
"Old write!"
It was a little annoying, but I decided to hunt alone.
Leaving Jenna skillfully skinning a deer, I went into the woods. A rabbit looked this way and pricked up its ears. ignored and moved on
What you need to find is
the 'Queen of the Forest.'
It is a rare monster that appears in dungeons in the forest every day of the week.
The lower attribute stones he possesses become materials for advancement. Although not always there. I knew the approximate spawn location. If you go to the center of the forest, you will see a valley.
Just in time, I found a valley.
I drew my sword and shield. I walked slowly upstream along the valley, keeping an eye on my surroundings. There were also rabbits and wild boars drinking water, but they were ignored. As we went upstream, the forest grew thicker and darker.
I checked the remaining time at the top of my sight.
[32:45]
30 minutes left. At the end of that time, it will return automatically.
catch in it In addition to the attribute stones here, you need to collect two more materials from dungeons on other days of the week.
'found.'
There was a guy where the valley formed a small puddle.
Its appearance is similar to that of a deer, but it has large horns on its forehead. Its huge body was enough to believe that it was a rhinoceros. A doe with horns. Beside him stood two stags, two heads smaller than him, lined up as if escorting him.
[Queen of the Forest Lv.10]
Level 10.
I counted while hiding behind a tree.
three.
two.
one!
jumped out of the tree and ran.
Her gaze met that of a stag that was leisurely drinking water.
Pooh!
A deer with a deep cut in its throat was lying around. Another stag pointed his antlers at me. I removed the horns with my shield and put my sword through my throat.
After killing the two deer in an instant, I lightly brushed off the blood from the tip of my sword.
"I killed all your boyfriends, don't you feel bad?"
Purung.
The deer snorted wordlessly.
"Come on."
