さん、いよいよピンチっすね」
トムの苦言に頷きそうになる自分を
「くッ......」
入り組んだ建築群をいかに遮蔽物に見立て、敵の遠距離攻撃を回避しようにも......こう絶え間なく狙い撃ちをされ続けては、反撃する隙がない。
傭兵団
序盤こそ、こちらが優位に立ち回れていたものの、数の暴力に抵抗し続けるのは難しい状況に陥ってしまったわ。
私の『首狩る酔狂共』はトムを入れて残り4人。それっきりの戦力では、生き残るだけで必死。
こちらと連携を組んで、【感染都市サナトリウム】の中層攻略を阻止していた他
の戦力差が大きすぎるわ。
「また、か」
狭い路地、私達の進行方向を塞ぐようにして、6人の
後衛職が回復魔法スキル持ちだったら、完全にこちらの足を鈍らせるのが目的の構成ね。
どう突破するか思案しながら、加速をする。
「ッッ」
だけれど予想外なことに、接敵まで5秒を切った距離で相手の陣形が一気に崩れた。
「ザコは邪魔。どいて」
そんな台詞を吐いて、ぞんざいに敵を一蹴したのは一人の少女だった。
六人の背後から悠々と歩いて来た彼女によって、敵が一瞬にしてなぎ倒されてしまった。いや、あれは白い獅子による鈍重な捕食だ。牛よりも大きなライオンが豪風のごとく吹き荒れ、その牙と爪で以って六人の
赤色の帽子を目深にかぶり、男の子みたいな恰好の黒髪少女。
ポケットに手なんか突っ込んじゃって、余裕をにじみ出してくる所が気に食わないわね。
「ちょっと期待していたより、無様な事態になっててガッカリかな」
こちらはとっくに限界を迎えているのに......ここに来て目の前にいる人物が誰なのかを把握し、重ねて舌打ちをしそうになる。
「【
「今更、弱った私達を狙いにきて、威勢よく吠えられてもねぇ......最強を名乗る、って誰にでもできそうね?」
安い挑発だけれど、相手が自分の力に少しでも誇りや何か自負するものがあるならば。
きっと私達が切り抜けられる状況を作れるかもしれない。
「そんなに怯えないで、シンさん。自分は最初から、
帽子の下で不敵に笑う少女は言った。
「シンさんの思惑通りにするってこと。そちらがMPもHPも全快するまで待つよ。それまで他の団員や
こちらの思考を崩すように、完全なるマイペースで彼女は告げた。
「でもその後、団員たちがどうするかは勝手だよ」
結局、目の前の【
「フゥ、エル......ここは慎重に......」
【感染都市サナトリウム】の中層に来た俺達は、とある
物影に隠れ、風妖精のフゥとエルにひとまずは警戒するべく、様子見をしようと提案したのだが......。
「何あれ、強そう! エル、
「たろりん? フゥは強くなったんだよ? あんなのへっちゃららー♪」
エルは突っ込んで行ってしまった。
フゥまでもが俄然、好戦的なのは今回のクエストに備え、スキル『風妖精の友訊』をLv30から50まで上昇させたのが原因なのかもしれない。
「エルりん、いっちゃった。たろりん、いく?」
無邪気な表情で首を傾げ、俺に問い掛けてくるフゥ。だが、この可愛らしい姿形に騙されてはいけない。なにせ【
「あぁ......エルよ......仕方ない、行くか」
「はーい! たろりんのお役に立つよ~♪」
どうして一度は様子を見ようとしたかと言えば、明らかに
たちには悪いけれど、アレがどんな攻撃パターンを繰り出してくるのかじっくりと観察させてもらってから、介入するつもりだった。
俺達には【人攫いの人狼】討伐のクエストが控えているのだ。
とはいえ、ちょっと見た限りではリーチの長い腕を活かし、高速すぎる連続攻撃を行うだけが取り柄に見える存在だ。長距離から鎮圧すれば脅威度は少ないと判断できる。
「はい! フゥはたろりんの風に、耳をかたむけるん。エルりんよりいい子?」
「どちゃくそいい子だぞ、フゥ」
フゥの柔らかほっぺを指先でなでれば、【
「ふふーん♪」
笑顔満点なフゥの先で、エルが果敢に
】に向かって、フゥは羽ばたき一つで進行を鈍らせた。どういう原理かは知らないが、上手く風の流れを操っているのか俺に暴風が向くことはない。
「風を知る者、己を知る。風を呼ぶ者、友を呼ぶ。風を読む者、未来を読む――」
いつもの幼い口調ではなく、威厳ある声音でフゥが何かの文言を詠唱する。
「エル! もう攻撃はしなくていいから、下がって!」
俺はエルが後退するのと入れ替わるようにして前に立つ。そして風の館によって封じられた【
これにて一件落着。
「あの子......今、何をやった?」
「あれってもしかして、白銀の天使ちゃんじゃ......」
「君! 一度、細菌感染した者をどうやって!?」
生き残った三人の
「錬金術です!」
「ええと、それより、あれだ! 助けてくれてありがとう!」
「あれが、錬金術......」
やっぱり半信半疑なようだ。
特に女性みたいに髪の毛をストレートに伸ばした線の細いイケメン
「どうか、お願いだ! 俺達に力を貸してくれないか?」
「......あのアイテムを、錬金術、で......?」
「おい、ゴッホ! ブツブツ言ってないで、お前からも頼んでくれよ!」
あらら......今回はエルの好戦的な行動が、結果として彼らを救うことになってしまっただけなんだよな。だからこれ以上関わるつもりはなかったけれど、どうやらこの人達も同じクエストを受注しているようだ。
】は強いから、協力した方が成功率は上がるかもしれない。
それにこの人達の仲間の元に上手く合流できれば、ターゲットに遭遇できる確率は高い。ここは流れに乗るべきだろう。
「わかりました。仲間の元に案内してくれますか?」
俺が了承すると、二人の男性
"Sister, you look like a pinch at last."
I scold myself for about to snort at Tom's bitterness, and I keep running silently.
"Kuh......"
No matter how you look at the enclosed architectural group as a shield and avoid enemy ranged attacks... there is no gap to fight back if you keep getting sniped at like this constantly.
Mercenary Regiment (Clan) It's been a long time since I encountered The Beast Kingdom of Hell Warfare Practice, but I've already been killed by quite a few allies. Anyway, the opponent mobilized an unknown number of mercenaries (players) from here. You've shown us in advance with a number of mercenary regiments (clans), and you're going to keep going after us, right?
It was at the beginning that we were able to gain an advantage, but we were in a difficult situation to continue resisting a number of violence.
My "Neck Hunting Insanity" has 4 left with Tom in it. With that exact power, I'm desperate to just survive.
In conjunction with this one, other mercenary groups (clans) who were blocking the mid-level attack on [infected city of Sanatorium] contacted us and said they had returned to death, and this time it was a matter of holding hands.
Of course, there's too much of a difference in his power.
"Again?"
The narrow alley, trying to block our direction of travel, makes me tongue when I see six mercenaries (players) standing side by side.
If the rear guard has healing magic skills, the goal is to blunt this leg completely.
Increase acceleration as you figure out how to break through.
"Huh."
Unexpectedly, however, the formation of the opponent collapsed once and for all at a distance of five seconds until the enemy was intercepted.
"Zako is in the way. Out of the way."
It was one girl who threw up such a dialogue and kicked the enemy in the ass.
By her walking slowly from behind the six, the enemy was knocked down in an instant. No, that's blunt heavy predation by a white lion. A lion bigger than a cow is blowing wild, instantly suppressing six mercenaries (players) with his fangs and claws.
A perfect brunette girl wearing a red hat deep in her eyes, like a boy.
I don't care if you stick your hands in your pockets.
"I'm a little bit more disappointed than I was expecting."
This one is taking its limits so far...... I come here to figure out who the person in front of me is, and I'm going to lay it over and tongue it.
"[Danger Zone (Red Zone)] ..."
"Now that you're coming after us weak, even if you're barking in majesty... is it possible for anyone to name the strongest?
If it's a cheap provocation but the other person has something to be a little proud of in their power or something.
I'm sure we can create a situation where we can cut through.
"Don't be so frightened, Mr. Singh. I've been here since the beginning, with the intention of (...)"
The girl laughing invincibly under the hat said.
"I mean do as Mr. Singh thinks. I'll wait till you get your MP and HP up to speed. Until then, no other members or mercenaries (players) will be allowed to do anything. When you're recovered, you and Mr. Singh can take a ride."
She told me at a complete mypace to break this one's mind.
"But then it's up to the team to do something about it."
In the end, I realized that victory over the [danger zone (red zone)] in front of me was unlikely to escape the siege net.
"Huh, El... be careful here..."
Coming to the middle of the [infected city of Sanatorium], we were encountering a situation where certain mercenaries (players) were being chased.
I suggested hiding in the shadows and trying to watch out for the wind fairy hu and el for a second...
"Whatever it is, it looks strong! Elle, kill!
"Tatarin? Hu's getting stronger, huh? It's like that."
Elle has penetrated and gone.
Even Hu is Russian, and the belligerent is probably responsible for preparing for this quest, raising his skill, Friends of the Wind Fairy News, from LV30 to 50.
"Erin, I'm done. Tarot, go?
He tilts his neck with an innocent look and asks me. Huh. But don't let this adorable figure fool you. It has evolved from [Wind Calling Princess (Garuda)] to [Green and Windy Absolute Princess (Gin Regina)].
"Oh... it's Elle... I don't have a choice, let's go"
"Yes! Tatarin will help ~"
Why did you try to see how it was once, when you obviously had the appearance of being chasing mercenaries (players)? My arms are unusually long and I don't have eyes on my uppermost face. And he's creepingly shaking his neck to the left and right, letting his long arms munch at an inconspicuous speed, and attacking the mercenaries (players).
It's bad for the mercenaries (players) who are desperate to escape, but I was going to intervene after I let them closely observe what attacking patterns they are going to have.
We are holding off on the quest for the [Wolf of Man] Crusade.
Nevertheless, from what I've seen a bit, it just seems handy to make use of the long arm of reach and make a series of attacks that are too fast. If we crack it down from long distances, we can determine that the threat is low.
"Yes! Hu turns his ear to the wind of Taro Rin. A better kid than Erin?
"Damn good boy, duh."
With the soft cheeks of Hu at your fingertips, [The Green and Windy Princess (Jin Legina)] looks delightful.
"Hmm."
At the end of a smiling hu, I could see Elle courageously going to the cannibal (ghoul) to punch him, so not even if he was soothing.
Towards the attacking [Cannibal Demon (Ghoul)], Hu dulled his progress with one wingspan. I don't know what the principle is, but the storm won't be right for me if I'm successfully manipulating the wind flow.
"He who knows the wind, knows himself. He who calls the wind, he calls his friends. Who reads the wind, who reads the future -"
Instead of the usual young tone, Hu chants some kind of wording in a majestic voice.
"El! You don't have to attack anymore, back off!
I stand forward so Elle can switch back. Then sprinkle the [Cannibal Demon (Ghoul)], sealed by the Wind Hall, with "Red Water of Unstrayed Salvation".
One case settled on this.
"That kid...... what did you do now?
"Could that be the angel of silver..."
"You! Once, how do you get the bacterially infected!?
The three surviving mercenaries (players) have arrived, so I just say here with a doggy face.
"It's alchemy!
"Uh, more than that, that's it! Thanks for the help!
"That's the alchemy..."
I knew it sounded half-hearted.
Especially a handsome mercenary (player) with a thin line stretching her hair straight out like a woman, staring at me like I can't believe it.
"Please, please! Can you help us?
"... that item, alchemy, so...?
"Hey, Gogh! I didn't say bump, ask for it from you too!
Alas... Elle's belligerent behavior just ended up saving them this time. So I didn't mean to get involved any more, but apparently these people are ordering the same quest.
Indeed, [Cold-blooded werewolf (Licant Lycan)] is strong, so working together may increase your success rate.
Besides, if we can successfully rendezvous with these people's people, we have a good chance of encountering the target. We should probably get on the stream here.
"Okay. Can you show me to my people?
When I acknowledge, the two male mercenaries (players) raise their shouts of joy. But only the good-looking Ron Hair dubbed Gogh was squeaking something with a hard look.
