14th floor – Lv. 459 The Forgotten (1)
There is a difference between not having to sleep and not having to sleep.
No matter how strong and strong the human body is, the fact that it operates on a 24-hour cycle does not change.
In fact, all non-human creatures are the same.
The reason the leader quickly became undead was apparently to prevent overwork.
If you have a lot to do, the undead is the best choice. From a distance, the undead and the machine are no different from each other.
Even at dawn, when humans, orcs and goblins were asleep, the leader was devising something, and he conducted an interview with each party member after a long time.
The hunter’s turn was the last.
After all, it may be because everyone knows his goal and is on the verge of being accomplished.
“I don’t think it’s necessary to say too much. Is the purpose still the temple of time?”
“Of course. I just want to go see my wife and children.”
“Are there any complaints about the party’s situation?”
“It’s the feeling of an old man who is about to retire, so what’s the point of dissatisfaction? But I’m still thinking a little about whether it’s right to stand in the top position.”
12th year
He was treated like a senior in the tutorial section, but in this tutorial, who has already gone to space, he is nothing more than a kid.
It is true that there are no senior exiles in the party except for the leader.
“When I’m not there, there’s nothing I can do about it, because it’s only you and the old man who will catch the leader. To be honest, it’s more than expected.
“How did you get here after playing like a village worm hunter?”
“To be honest, you are also quite talented. It looks like you have no choice but to rely on equipment in terms of combat, but it would have been nice if there was a sincere and capable person like you in the guild last time.”
“Actually, I did the entire boss.”
“I said that you seem to have a lot of organized combat experience. That’s what it was. So, you got married early, didn’t you?”
“Earth’s family doesn’t know the news after the divorce.”
Perhaps it was thanks to the thought of being on a stable footing, it was not awkward to talk about the outside world, which is often considered taboo.
After all, it is just a defense mechanism necessary for the life of an exile, through which countless people pass by in the name of companions.
As long as it remains as a good memory, it shouldn’t be a problem.
Those who don’t have time often do a lot of stupid things because they don’t know it, but they are experienced professionals who can be sensible even when they become little wizards.
“I mean the 10th floor, the boss floor. The one to draw from there is probably a fairy card. Take it as severance pay.”
“How are you sure?”
“I’m not sure. But it’s possible to avoid the eyes of the god of fortune in an indirect way. It’s obscure enough if you leave out the vague allusion, cause and process and leave only the rough conclusion.”
As a hunter, it is an unknown standard.
However, they talk equally with the gods, and if you are an exile at the same level as the gods, there must be a way to know.
It is not a lie to say that he is a god-like senior.
“I’m really lucky.”
“It’s luck. It’s the essence of this labyrinth.”
Other than that, it was just a joke. The leader was friendly enough and knew how to make those he talked to feel good.
The hunter drank alcohol after a long time, and the leader sip the fairy blood and chatted.
An ambitious night of chatter continued until the fleet commander arrived.
The hunter nodded and came out.
Military spaceships are like submarines. For maximum space efficiency, the hallways are narrow and the rooms are small.
Fortunately, there is a little more space to imagine the vampire soldiers.
He goes back to his room through the narrow hallway that seems to tighten his mind.
He subtly laid down on the short bed and opened his mind map.
[Episode 1226]
[Remaining time: 1 minute 12 seconds]
It seems unlikely that an exile will ever be able to see his last hour.
The hunter watched the end of the timer announcing that he would never be able to respawn.
After a while, he became an NPC from exile and lost his qualifications to clear the labyrinth.
* * *
The fleet commander wanted to be with me for as long as possible, the great warrior of the goddess, the incarnation, the progenitor of the Federation, and the proof of his faith.
Unfortunately, I was exhausted enough, and rather than chatting with him, I talked about the future of the Federal Army in the future.
I don’t know why he admires my strategic insight so much, but it seemed like his anus was going to break soon, so he gave me a congratulatory order.
It wasn’t a pointless time.
The Goddess is watching, and if I take my time for meaningless things, a big thing will happen.
Clearly, the main discussion was on how to deal with dragons that would soon appear in space.
Since the commander is a general-level person, it will be spread evenly.
The goddess also helped a little with jade, so the commander left my room in prayer with bright eyes.
Actually, my room now is originally the commander’s room.
Silence for the junior officers and soldiers who slept with the first four stars and no four lollipops.
The god of nature, who has already become quite friendly, speaks to me.
“The friend’s condition was a bit bad.”
“Isn’t that the expression you’ve seen a lot somewhere?”
“That’s it. When the immortality that I thought was a curse was finally over, it was a look that suddenly made me wonder if it was actually a blessing.”
“Other than that, it’s hard to come up with a psychological state that’s so sad. It’s the first time in 100 years that I’m discharged.”
Exiles who have successfully settled in the kingdom do not necessarily end their exile there and enjoy heavenly powers.
The kingdom is clearly a more comfortable environment compared to the previous section, which most could not penetrate.
But isn’t that where people live? It is very difficult to see how it works as ideally as some people imagine.
The kingdom is a space where new exiles pour in every time a new tutorial is opened.
It is also a society.
But it is a kingdom.
There’s a reason it’s called that.
Originally, it was nothing more or less than a space where various worlds intersect.
The reason why the nickname became ‘Kingdom’ is because there is a king.
who is that king?
A powerful and powerful exile.
Even exiles are superhumans.
I’ve never seen a democracy between exiles work properly.
How can a man who upturns the ground in one blow and a man who is just a little fit get an equal vote?
The strong guy decides everything.
It was never a good thing for those who barely reached the kingdom to be called a kingdom.
A hierarchy arises when there is a society. Welfare policies to protect the vulnerable are not yet in the labyrinth.
It’s just a very livable thing for a labyrinth.
That is why there are people who think that they will just live as NPCs on the continent like fairy exiles.
“Anyway, it’s just that it’s so shabby that it’s just a little bit of an understatement. It creates a lot of regrets.”
Exiles who have learned to get used to death gradually move away from it.
Once you reach the kingdom, the level of information you can access also changes.
Once you get there, it’s much easier to do it again after that.
If you stay in the kingdom so often, you will quickly settle down unless you are a challenger, and your time will be consumed quickly.
And you will finally realize.
In the early days of his exile, he regrets the remaining time that was only considered a curse.
It is a blessing, not a curse, to be able to start over from death unless the circumstances in which you would rather die.
A time of 100 years can confuse even the instincts of living things.
Most of those who are embraced by death again have complex feelings, which appear in an unfamiliar manner.
You can tell by looking at it for a long time.
In a labyrinth where relationships with someone are difficult to sustain, it is rare that such deep and thick regrets are etched on the face.
The hunter did just that.
The face of the exile nearing the end.
It was normal, but now it’s unfamiliar.
The fear of having to take it for granted again.
But at the same time, the joy of being able to face a comfortable death.
It is a deep emotion unique to those whose instinct to live is broken.
“It would be heartbreaking if I felt that way alone, but I thought the same thing.”
“Then it’s probably right. I think I can check with the Goddess, but…”
“Aren’t you a party member you’ll be sending out soon anyway? Just leave it alone.”
“Perhaps he died of old age after living with fairies in a certain episode in the past. Let’s not touch it.”
Human lifespan is short.
If you step on the trap of a fairy at an insignificant time and age, you might lead a strangely twisted life.
“If it’s a fairy card, it’s perfect for retirement pay.”
“Our party welfare is so good.”
There are many ways to get cards from the kingdom anyway.
But will you find the Temple of Time again after the Kingdom?
Even if there were a girl, it would be a star picking in the sky.
“So, why do you think that girl is like that?”
“Are the odds going weird? I think it’s probably the embodiment of luck.”
“Is it face-to-face?”
“If you are in control of the probability in this labyrinth, isn’t it only the god of fortune in the first place?”
“In the Temple of Time… … Hmm. I might know something. Your party is unlike any other party I’ve ever seen. Doesn’t it seem like the superintendents are watching too?”
“I’m going to see a god who worships the god of the abyss soon, so I’m going to talk to him about something.”
“I’d be really surprised if the ambassador suddenly gave an answer.”
That’s it.
The substitutes were vague even in the setting of the game days.
Perhaps, if there is a secret in this labyrinth that I do not know, it is most likely related to them.
First of all, we need to get to the kingdom and see.
* * *
Unlike our party-only transport, there were no hot springs to help restore magical power, so the magicians’ magic did not recover much.
No matter how strong a wizard is, he is consumable.
There is no such thing as mana potions.
Balanced, too versatile, and firepower is good for magic classes that need to be limited like that.
I thought about taking a little more rest, but seeing the rest of my time, I didn’t really want to.
Since it took three months anyway, it means that something is going to take place somewhere.
If you know that you are ready for a forced break, you don’t need to rest here any longer.
“The location of the stairs has been confirmed. The task force has already secured the location. Would you like to move right away?”
Of course I did.
I asked him how to find alternative stairs, and he said that there is an AI that predicts the location of the stairs based on the location of the exile’s appearance and progress.
It’s something I’m seeing for the first time.
A country that is very serious about exiles.
After all the soldiers came out to salute and passed between grand ceremonies where a military band played marchers, our party stepped back on the steps.
As always, a sense of wealth comes.
[TIP: Air is always with us, so you may not feel its value!
It’s already too late to tell you now, but check to see if there’s a way to store oxygen in your luggage!
No? Good luck in the next episode!]
If you don’t know this, you must die. Doesn’t that tip mean you have to get out before going down the stairs?
shit game. Look at that exclamation mark in the tip message. It’s really disgusting.
Of course, when it was space-themed, the oxygen cylinder was the item the youngest always carried.
Me and the little boy are totally undead.
