105 PK (1)
who opened the crack.
That is, who is the mafia?
It’s a question I’ve been holding on to since I entered the ‘Glacier Cave’.
Because the mafia was a ‘variable’ to me.
It was necessary to determine in advance whether it was a positive variable or a negative variable. So, without concluding that Mister Bear is a mafia, I opened up all the possibilities and gathered clues.
As a result.
‘Yeah, it was him.’
I found a person who is presumed to be the mafia.
But still, that was all.
Am I supposed to say I don’t know what this guy wants?
‘Huh, I can’t just kill that one.’
It makes me feel even more uncomfortable because I don’t know what’s inside.
That’s right, if that guy is the mafia, there’s a good chance he’ll become a negative variable in the future.
but… … .
‘I’ll have to keep watching for now.’
The mafia is one.
And he hasn’t done anything yet.
It means that if you kill them all, it becomes a problem.
buzz-
Unless two innocent people ‘shut their mouths’.

“Michelle, are you okay?”
“… me? Are you okay?”

Misha answered naturally, but in fact, yesterday’s fatigue will spread throughout her body.
Unlike Jensen and Mister Bear, we only slept three hours a night on our watch.
“Don’t worry. Isn’t it better than the witch’s forest?”
“that… Right.”
I smiled and brushed away my worries.
After all, a kid who has endured it won’t be swayed by this level.
“Stop flirting and start slowly?”
As soon as Uncle Bear uttered a word, Misha stepped back and returned to her position.
The backmost part of the formation.
If someone is doing something stupid, you will immediately notice it. Without him, I would have been burdened with the role of a tank and standing in the front.
Tub.
As soon as they took the first step, the group followed at their speed.
‘It’s not a 2D graphic, it’s actually like this.’
A dark ice cave.
The ground covered with the castle is slippery, and the overall topographical structure is more three-dimensional than the crystal cave on the first floor.
There were some steep slopes, as well as some places where the road was cut off and you had to ride a rope to get over it.
but… … .
“But I’m glad that there seems to be only one way.”
There was no way to get lost without a seeker.
It’s not that there weren’t any side roads in the middle, but it wasn’t long before a dead end appeared.
All you have to do is go through the main passage.
Destroying monsters that appear from the ice wall.
Puff-!
For reference, the monsters that appear here are Warm Stone, Saber Tiger, Frost Wolf, Ice Golem, and Owl Bear.
Unlike the Blood Citadel where the 7th grade monster ‘Bone Knight’ appeared, most were 8th grade monsters.
‘But the actual difficulty is higher here.’
Status abnormal [Hypothermia].
A debuff field effect that reduces agility by up to -30 when there is no cold resistance and doubles the received cold property damage.
“Miss Naphrin, be careful. Perhaps because of my stiff body, these guys’ attacks seem to be more painful than before.”
“Ah, somehow… … ! So it was!”
As the journey continued, ‘Jensen’, who was in charge of the second row on either side of me, started making a sick sound.
Of course, he was considerate of them and didn’t slow down or slow down. After all, it was like the two of them had almost no share.
puck.
Actually, Mister Bear and Misha who protects Mister Bear. As the three of us were digging through the road like this, we slowly reached the end of the chapter.
Did it take you about four hours to get here?
As I walked up and down the winding passage, a wide cavity appeared.
“Hwiyu, that’s great.”
Three monsters trapped in a pillar of crystal-clear ice.
“Looking at your white skin, Ice Orc-kun.”
“… Ice Orc?”
“Don’t worry, it’s only 7th grade.”
The weapons the Ice Orcs were holding were all different.
One with an axe, one with a hammer, and the other with a magic wand.
“… … Do I have to fight them too?”
“They wouldn’t be here without a reason.”
Uncle Bear responded cynically to Jencia’s murmur.
And that moment.
sizzle-
The ice pillars that had imprisoned the Ice Orcs began to crack and break at once.
“Hey, don’t you give me time to look around?”
It’s a relaxed reaction from Mister Bear anyway.
“Don’t panic, stand in formation!”
I hurriedly shouted at Jensen, who was restless. That’s because it’s easier for Misha to monitor you when you’re in formation.
“Ah yes!”
Soon Jensen came to my side, and Uncle Bear stepped back and took a sniper position at the same time.
Whoops, whoops.
Ice shards fell, and the Ice Orc trio woke up.
He spit out a ferocious snort called the mid-boss.
[Chwii profit-!]
One shaman and two warriors.
It’s a fairly well-balanced composition, and [hypothermia] is a very difficult opponent.
If you don’t know the strategy.
“Whew… … .”
Take a long breath and raise the shield.
I was pretty tense.
Not because of the Orcs you can catch at any time, but because of other parts.
‘If you’re going to do something clever, now is probably the right time.’
There is a mafia in the team.
Of course, I don’t know what his purpose is.
Perhaps he simply wanted to break the rift and had no intention of harming others.
However, if that is not the case, you should be prepared.
therefore-
Quang!
Focus on defense rather than offense.
It’s better to hide the power just in case.
In that sense, I have given Misha an order not to go out and just watch.
“Why didn’t you run to your lover and are you still here?”
“You never know what might come out of the back. And I’m not a lover.”
“Well, it still looks like it.”

Mister Bear expressed doubts about Misha’s positioning, but it seemed to be a convincing reason.
and… … .
“Tsuk, there are those guys, but Mani, I’ll have to use my strength this time.”
He brought out an ability he had never shown before.
“Abman Urikfrit has summoned the Cheol-Woong Iradun.”
A gigantic bear protruding through the portal created in front of Mr. Bear.
was the soul.
‘… Iradun?’
To be honest, I was a little surprised.
As a 5th-level explorer from the Beast Tribe, I wondered if he had already signed a soul beast contract… … .
‘It must have been the summoning world.’
I can see why he was able to solo even with a bow jab.
If there is a tank summons, there is no need to stick with the team.
[Gaah!!]
The summoned bear cub ran quickly on all fours, roared next to me and stood up. And he began to mark one warrior as a dedicated warrior.
‘I’m going to go with Plan B.’
I acted completely rationally.
Nothing has changed anyway
Because he hid his power, didn’t the bear bring out the number of souls he had saved up until now?
[Chwii profit!]
For that reason, the hammering of Ice Orcs was allowed.
If it hits your body, you’ll get a kick out of swearing, so I just twisted it like a head with my head.
Quang-!
In addition to wearing a helmet, the bone strength stats were also adhered to, so the head was not crushed.
Just to the extent that my brain shakes and I feel a little dizzy.
Even then, the natural regeneration value was applied and he was recovering quickly.
However… … .
dump.
I picked it up and fell to the floor.
That’s right, if you catch the three orcs too easily, you’ll be unable to talk about the mafia.
“I’m sorry, are you all right… Ouch!”
Carlson ran up to me in amazement and took over the aggro.
And that moment.
「You have killed the Ice Orc Warrior. EXP +3.」
The arrow that was shot pierces the head of the hammer orc.
As a result, the shaman’s aggro was changed to Uncle Bear… … .
Level 5 Explorers were seasoned.
Tadat.
Bear in the early 190’s, with his large body, he agilely evades witchcraft and shoots accurately with arrows in his crossbow.
“The Ice Orc Shaman has cast [Steel Ice Wall].”
The shaman’s defense skills were also meaningless in front of that formidable arrow.
How can a level 7 monster stop that?
aa-!
The arrow that smashed the ice wall hit the shaman’s head and exploded.
「You have killed the Ice Orc Shaman. EXP +3.」
Now there is only one orc left.
‘Are you going to catch them all with three arrows?’
A feeling of disappointment creeps in
If the battle is too easy, the one-sided composition was coming out to the extent that my plan of making it difficult was overshadowed.
‘Is this a rank 5 archer?’
Zep, the floor is cold, so just pretend to wake up right now?
As I was thinking about it, someone muttered to me.
“That was the soul number.”
cold voice.
“Now we can go ahead as planned.”
Uncle Bear, who was loading the next arrow, collapsed and vomited blood.
dump.
Finally, the mafia took action.
***
There are several prerequisites that must be met to become a mafia.
You must be knowledgeable enough to know how to open a rift.
The ability to find directions must be excellent enough to go to the second floor in 19 hours.
You will have the ability to clear it by yourself.
This alone reveals a rough shape.
A seeker with a level 5 strength.
This is the true nature of the mafia.
The problem, though, is that all three of them had enough of this possibility.
1. Mister Bear.
Level 5 Explorer.
A way of thinking that resembles a player somewhere, etc.
I have to say that my mouth hurts.
2. Carlson.
He was the only one who said his name at the time of introduction.
He didn’t even mention the essence he owned.
Also, the equipment on the lower level was well maintained.
like new.
I kept watching to see if it was a camouflage device, but I didn’t even eat the Frostwolf Essence for a reason.
It was suspicious enough.
Well, not like him.
3. Gencia Naphrin.
He said that he had been trained as a explorer and had a knack for it.
He also said that observation is his specialty.
To me, it was all insurance.
To make the subsequent dialogue sound natural.
[Stand, do I have to grab that and go down?]
Even when I met the Yeti blocking the cave.
[oh! When I touch it, it glows.]
Even in the second chapter.
[Somehow, I feel like my body is not moving well… ···!]
Even when the middle boss cast [Suppression].
[By the way… is it all over now?]
Before the last wave begins, even when everyone is vigilant.
He continued to pretend he wasn’t and pointed to the point.
As if they knew the strategy.
Of course, this was nothing compared to Uncle Bear or Carlson.
If it wasn’t for the dirt on the shoes.
As soon as I entered the crack, the first thing I checked was the shoes. To open the ‘Glacier Cave’, you need to go to the 2nd floor Beast’s Den.
Jencia was the only one with dirt on her shoes.
Well, if you haven’t polished your steps in the city, I’m convinced…
[Now that I think about it, there is one strange part, but after falling into the water, the smell of Jencia changed.]
Novel from https://noblemtl.com
Misha’s tip convinced me.
It’s not as good as Rott Miller, but first of all, like a beast, the olfactory stat itself is on the high side.
[Originally, it smelled a bit stinky.]
[Like a den of beasts?]
[Ahh! I see it now I asked why it was familiar!]
Gencia is a mafia.
I judged it to be such a malignant variable, with plenty of room for a negative variable.
And thanks to that, I was able to prepare in advance.
Fu-wook!
The moment when Zencia’s sword pierced Uncle Bear’s abdomen.
Novel from https://noblemtl.com
Misha, who dashed as if waiting, threw a vial and hit it.
Clink!
Glass shatters and spills contents.
“Thank you, 30 million stones— yay!”
Jencia, who was trying to talk about something leisurely, puts on the solution and backs away in shock.
“What, what! What are you doing to me… … .”
I quickly got up to my feet.
However, was my fainting a part of the reason that that year was designated as the time of surprise?
“What, what… … .”
Jencia looked even more confused.
Instead of answering, I let out a shout.
“Behel—laa!!!”
what is it
From now on, it’s called self-defense.
She did not know that MC met a Hanz, the harbringer of misfortune. That’s why he was ready
🤣
