SSS-Rank Mechanic Player - SSS-Rank Mechanic Player chapter 83

It was literally an embarrassing situation.

I entered 1-4 through 1-5, but the fact that there was no passage starting with 1 meant that there were some complicated rules.

But no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t figure out what it was.

“Gerard.”

– Yes, master.

“Do you remember all the numbers you’ve seen from the beginning until now?”

-That’s right.

“Isn’t there something worth substituting for? For example, mathematical formulas and rules.”

-To do that, the data that is currently coming in is too insufficient.

“It sounds like you need to look around a bit more. Then, from now on, let’s just go straight until we get a clue.”

It was from this time.

Tae-jeong only ran on one road.

As expected, two aisles were added each time the space was expanded.

10 to 12 pieces. 12 to 14. 14 to 16.

The numbers were still mixed, and after running for several hours, the aisle quickly increased to 20 or so.

There are still no rules or formulas out there.

Slowly, anxiety began to creep in.

999 days added and an ever-expanding endless labyrinth.

A feeling of desolation that he had never felt before came over him.

It took a while to go straight again like that.

“It’s blocked.”

The first blockage was revealed.

This wasn’t anything special.

It’s just the first time, so it feels like it’s going to be a clue.

Tae-jung, who had been looking around the walls for hints, soon turned away with a disappointed look.

Because it was just a simple wall with nothing on it.

After returning like that, he chose an aisle again and started to move recklessly.

18 hours already.

He did not eat anything and struggled only to get out, and he parked the aircraft in a corner of the space only after filling up for 20 hours.

There are currently 30 aisles in total.

There were three places that were blocked on the way.

“I have to stop here for today.”

I could have done more if I wanted to, but I wanted something to cool my head.

Even if we continue like this, there doesn’t seem to be a way out.

After roughly filling her stomach with biscuits and drinks she had brought from home, Taejeong entrusted Gerard with vigilance and soon fell asleep.

how much time had passed

“Mmm.”

Taejeong’s eyes flashed open and instinctively looked left and right.

At the same time, realizing that his body was inside the aircraft, he let out a sigh of relief and took a sip of the water next to him.

-Are you awake already?

“How long have I been asleep?”

-3 hours and 30 minutes.

“What’s special about it?”

-There is not.

It’s only been a day since he came here, but Tae-jeong was able to recognize one fact.

“I guess there are no monsters here. You haven’t noticed it yet, and even though the radar is outdated, it doesn’t show up here at all. Besides, I haven’t seen a single ant cub since I came in.”

It was the first time I was in such a quiet dungeon while hunting.

A bizarre dungeon that looked like great guys would come out in terms of atmosphere, but in reality it wasn’t like that at all.

That thought did not change even on the second day.

“It has already increased to 56. Doesn’t this increase to infinity like this?”

It really couldn’t have been a big problem.

As we passed through the aisle, the space became larger and the entrance also increased.

I tried a bag just in case, but even that didn’t mean much.

“There were two blockages today. Isn’t it normal that everything is usually blocked and only one exit is open? Isn’t that right, Gerard?”

-The universal maze is designed like that.

“So that is it. that’s a bit weird There is nothing you can do about it. But how can the increasing number of open passages be much greater than the blocked ones? If you enter one of these, two more will increase. It’s the same wherever you go. How the hell are you going to find this?”

In this space, he hit the bag eight times.

Two of them were blocked and six were open.

The passages in those six places were the same, two more, 58 passages.

It was a structure that could never end.

Time passed, and three days had passed since entering the dungeon.

Taejeong was still wandering through the maze.

Still haven’t found any clues or hints.

Now the aisles had multiplied beyond count.

The space also became so huge that it could not be compared to the beginning, and the distance from end to end was unfathomable.

And then he realized why people couldn’t come back from this place.

The reason why even a paladin close to a high level could not return.

It wasn’t because of powerful monsters.

“He died of starvation, wandering around like this.”

He was right.

Looking back, I could feel it more clearly.

If it continues like this, it is doubtful whether 100 people will be able to come out after having a party.

If so, how did the other nine get out of here?

This was also a deep question.

“The food I brought is running out soon… … .”

The time limit for the first quest was 3 days.

So, it is true that we did not prepare much food.

Even if he ate sparingly, there was a high probability that he would not be able to survive the next week.

Taejeong, whose feet started to catch fire, began to use the blaster to double her movement speed.

Now that there is no answer, he believes in one thing.

It was a speed battle.

After wandering around like that, he came to a dead end again.

“damn. There won’t be an end like this Gerard, are you still there? Physics formulas, mathematical formulas, anything is fine… … .”

-sorry. No outliers could be found with the data received so far.

“In this case, you will starve to death.”

– It’s unfortunate, but it can’t be helped.

“what? what you say now… done. let’s not talk One more at a time like this… … .”

Tae-jung, who had muttered something while turning around, turned around and looked at the dead-end road.

“This one, but how thick is it?”

-I don’t know… … .

“Of course you would. When you look at it stacked up one by one, it doesn’t look particularly solid.”

Taejeong, who was muttering, suddenly summoned the aircraft.

At the same time, he stepped back and pulled out a multiple rocket launcher.

At that moment, Gerard’s voice was heard.

-What are you trying to do?

“I don’t know if you see it. I’m trying to pierce it once. Still, do you have data on the structures you saw on your way here? how is it? using this here. Will it collapse?”

– The odds of that happening are very slim. For this place to collapse, at least a level 5 bunker buster or a small nuclear warhead would have to be dropped. And that’s only in limited areas.

“okay? I don’t know what it is, but it’s something that would never happen with these rocket launchers.”

-That’s right.

“great. Then let’s stir it up.”

Saying that, Taejeong increased the distance and secured a minimum safe distance.

At the same time, he aimed the barrel forward and pressed the fire button.

Wow! Shuak!

The rockets that were fired in turn caused a collision with the wall as it was.

bang! Kwak!

There was a great roar and the rising dust filled the aisle.

“Is it a success?”

I moved my feet into the dust to check the result.

A situation where you can’t see anything because there is no ventilation.

As he progressed slowly, something caught his foot.

It appears to be a piece of debris that has fallen off.

When the obstacle prevented the aircraft from moving further, he switched to melee and started walking again over the rubble.

It’s been a while since I took such a long step.

Soon the smoke cleared and a long passage came into his field of vision.

Looking back, the wall that stood in my way earlier had been completely demolished.

“It’s really pierced.”

It reminded me of survival, but the wall actually broke through.

Beyond that, the passage continued.

It was the moment when Tae-jung’s intuition came into play.

“Somehow it seemed so.”

– How did you know?

“just. that reminded me We are good at breaking through walls.”

– Interesting. Are you thinking of incorporating it here?

“It’s not interesting. It’s natural if you’re human. Rather late. I should have done it right away. I’m looking for his rules or something. Anyway, there is nothing to block now, so I just go straight on the real one road. If you go all the way like this, you will have no choice but to come out eventually.”

Taejeong, who started moving again with a much lighter heart, ran on the same road from then on.

I couldn’t think of anything else now.

Wow! bang! Kwak!

Another wall collapsed and a path was formed.

11th already.

Roughly calculated, the number of increased passages will exceed 300.

In fact, time was wasted, so he didn’t even count.

There was nothing that caught his eye except the passage that faced the exact place he came out of.

After another day like that, he took a nap in the aisle and looked at the chocolate bars and water left in his inventory.

“About 5 days if you save money. You must reach the exit unconditionally within it.”

Stretching once, he slaps both of his cheeks to cheer himself up.

Then, with clearer eyes, he started moving again.

Unlike the beginning, as time passed, Tae-jung’s anxiety grew.

Anxiety that his judgment, having chosen all other factors, was wrong, and fear that the size of this maze would be bigger than he thought and that he would not be able to afford the given food.

But whenever he felt that way, he thought of his younger brother and the people in the guild.

‘I’m definitely going out. I will leave unconditionally.’

It’s already been four days since Tae-jung broke through the wall and stuck to one path.

There were only three chocolate bars left.

He ate half of the chocolate bar and wrapped it in paper again.

It was a level where I didn’t even get a message because I had already saved up food, but I had to save food to buy more time.

It was fortunate that he had a machine as he was a mechanic user.

At least the calories due to physical strength are not consumed.

“under. I want to eat kimchi stew. I really did a really good job on it. No, everything was fine, everything.”

Since I’ve been starving for a week, Tae-jung missed the home-cooked meals Park Se-ah cooked for me.

what is she doing now

A sudden curiosity arose, but even that was quickly forgotten by hunger.

“Let’s go again.”

The aircraft began to move along with his weak voice.

The biggest drawback of the first-generation aircraft, Protector Armor, was that it did not operate automatically.

Even if that was possible, I would be able to spend all my sleeping and resting time on the move.

It was Tae-jeong who felt the navigator’s cruise function was amazing.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been dreaming like that.

Finally, something he had never seen before began to appear.

A sunken ground visible at the end of the passage.

His eyes widened in an instant, and he quickly approached.

It was a stairway leading somewhere.

“Look at this. There are stairs.”

Tae-jeong’s heart, slightly reminded, began to pound.

He must have been, he was the one who had run around the same place for almost 10 days.

Since he hadn’t seen that common monster, the loneliness and helplessness that arose from it was something that could never be understood without experiencing it firsthand.

So he is very happy with this new structure that has come out at this point.

The width of the stairs was narrow, so Tae-jeong, who put the aircraft in, stepped straight down.

At some point, the stairs came to an end, and Tae-jung, who came down and stepped on the ground, was able to see a truly amazing sight.

A huge monster painted black.

It boasted a much larger torso than any monster he had ever seen.

For a moment, he was overcome by a tremendous sense of intimidation and was about to take out his equipment when he heard a strange voice in the air.

[What an ignorant guy. I hope it comes like this.]

Deed deed deed.

The ground started shaking violently.
