Chapter 121: (1)


    Boom!


    Fierce steam erupted from various ces.


    The corridor vibrated, and the wall copsed, revealing gears and wires inside.


    [Danger!]


    [The damage to the Ancient Statue is severe!]


    Climb the stairs, then go right. If you go straight to the three-way intersection, youll find the exit. Get ready to leave once youre there.


    Well break through the head and make our escape.


    Ziing.


    Kishashas voice disappeared.


    I dashed through the corridor, where the red light and fluorescent tubes shed together.


    Oppa, I think somethingsing from behind!


    I turned to Jennas voice.


    nk, nk, nk. Something massive was approaching in the dark corridor, shaking the ceiling and walls.


    [XYZ Ultimate Golem Lv.46]


    Karrk! Karararara! Dont underestimate my invention!


    It looks like the door has been broken.


    The golem extended its hand as it approached.


    The aiming device on the repeating crossbow began to spin rapidly.


    Tudududududung!


    With a somewhat sharp sound, bolts shot out from its hand. Velkist, who had been following behind, swung his sword. Splintered wood and arrowheads scattered in all directions.


    Ill handle this.


    What are you talking about? If were going to fight, we should all fight together.


    Venik () is in a bleeding state. Health decreases at regr intervals.


    Ediss desperate voice echoed.


    How many?


    Got it. Hold on a little longer. Dont let Priasis die.


    Themunication was cut off.


    Neryssa, who had been looking at me, smiled lightly.


    Eloka stopped as if waiting.


    Three is enough. You two should go ahead.


    But


    Dont you trust us?


    Finally, Jenna nodded and patted her cheek.


    Okay. Brothers and sisters, dont die!


    This is nothing to worry about.


    If you think its no longer possible, run away immediately. I hope Im being clear.


    I turned and ran again.


    Jenna followed behind me. A momentter, the sound of intense battle came from behind.


    Will they be okay?


    Do you think those guys trained for nothing? Have a little faith.


    I increased my speed.


    The corridor was narrow. Moving with more than three people would only be a hindrance.


    To tell the truth, the oue is unknown. The result may be that those guys lose. If so, three death messages will appear before me


    We should hurry.


    We must clear the mission as quickly as possible.


    And we didnt have much time.


    [Elite Lizardman Warrior Lv. 32]


    Karrrruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuk!


    The door next to the corridor opened with a creak, and a lizardman rushed out.


    He was wearing sturdy te armor and held a dazzlingly shining sword in his hand.


    Ping!


    An arrow urately pierced a gap in his armor like a needle.


    I drew my dagger and thrust it into the lizardmans helmet, which resounded with a scream of pain. When I withdrew the hilt, he spurted blood and copsed.


    I continued running through the corridor.


    Lizardmen appeared several times, but we dealt with them all as we kept moving forward.


    [Velkist () is in a bleeding state. Health decreases at regr intervals.]


    [Roza () has returned to the embrace of the goddess! Her courage will be remembered forever.]


    Its really annoying.


    No matter how difficult Pick Me Up was said to be, this was beyond hard.


    Clearing the stage seemed to be a difficulty that the developers didnt want.


    My ount was somewhat simr.


    I thought of the heroes of Niflheimr, who had suffered several times.


    Especially Seris. She must have felt simr to me now. A smile involuntarily appeared on my lips.


    Oppa.


    Dont worry. Well definitely clear it.


    I continued forward, dispatching the lizardmen blocking the way.


    The de of Bifrost stained crimson. After crossing two sections and climbing numerous stairs, I finally reached thest room.


    All sorts of wires were gathered here.


    A thick iron door was firmly closed as if denying entry.


    Karrk! Foolish humans, youve finally made it here.


    I heard a voice.


    Do you know what the woman youre protecting is trying to do? Shes defying the order of the universe!


    What are you talking about?


    Boom!


    I forcefully kicked the door.


    Inside a circr room several meters in size, withrge monitors extending in all directions, a small lizardman in robes was staring at me. The lenses of hispound eyes reflected light.


    [Master of Arcane, Kurushakh Lv.35]


    Kiaak, human! Youve made a mistake


    I took out a poisoned dagger from my belt and threw it.


    The purple de pierced through his robe and into his abdomen.


    Then three arrows pierced his nose, throat, and heart precisely.


    Kkuuh


    Thunk.


    He vomited ck blood and copsed.


    Instant death. I checked the surroundings. There was another door on the right side of the wall.


    Destroy all these suspicious devices. Leave nothing behind.


    Yes!


    I opened the door and entered.


    The entire room was filled with octagonal crystals.


    Crack! Thud! Thud!


    The sound of impacts spread from outside the open door.


    It seemed like Jenna was smashing the devices with enthusiasm.


    This is thest one.


    I looked down at my feet.


    The ck blood that the lizardman had spilled was stuck to my boots. If I had the time, I would have listened to what he was saying, but


    I gripped the hilt with both hands.


    When I plunged the sword into the crystal, gold spread like a spiders web. I twisted it and pulled it out. Crunch! Shattered pieces of the crystal scattered in all directions.


    Kugugugugung!


    [Danger!]


    [The Ancient Statue has reached its limit.]


    [Its copsing!]


    The entire room began to shake.


    [Mission type has changed.]


    [Mission Type  Escape]


    [Objective  Exit this area!]


    [Special Objective  The survival of NPC Priasis Al Ragna]


    I went outside.


    As it shook, Jenna was diligently smashing machine parts with her bow.


    Jenna!


    Oh, Oppa!


    This ce is about to copse. We need to get out.


    What about the others?


    Well meet them on the way out. Follow me!


    Jenna jumped up and joined me.


    We immediately left the room. The vibrations intensified.


    Kugugugug. Rocks were falling from the ceiling.


    We just took care of thest crystal. The entrance should be open now. The mes outside should have disappeared. Go out right away.


    Were fine here. Well manage.


    As soon as I cut off themunication, I jumped to the side.


    Sharp rock fragments fell where I had been standing. I ran after that. Lizardmen were scurrying around in various ces in the corridor. I ignored them.


    Where is it?


    I recalled the map of the bonus stage.


    I calcted the fastest way to escape after joining the other three.


    Left, right. Then right again.


    Kwakwakwakwakwung!


    Boom!


    A powerful explosion sounded from a side corridor.


    I immediately moved. In the smoke, a human figure appeared. Jennas eyes gleamed as she dived into the smoke.


    Over here!


    In the smoke, the three of them revealed themselves.


    Slower than expected. Weve been waiting.
