Surviving the Game as a Barbarian - Surviving the Game as a Barbarian chapter 102
102 Episode Mafia (1)
“What, what! suddenly… … .”
“earthquake… … ?”
The explorers who were sleeping are awakened by the sound that spreads across the ground.
I realized.
That once Hans is Hans forever.
‘Maybe the name change would be of no use.’
Taking a deep breath, Hanst… … .
No, I looked at the man who will now be remembered as Hans G for the last time.
“I, I didn’t do anything!”
Yes, it is.
How could you open a rift here?
It’s just my luck.
“Bjorn?”
“Run!”
I grabbed Misha and started running.
’cause I don’t have time
There was no explanation, but Misha asked.
“… Maybe a crack has been opened?”
“okay.”
Just like in my life, another shit happened.
Of course, it’s not the kind of shit that threatens my life.
However… … .
‘Nemiral, how much did I spend?’
I selected a rift to enter, and purchased items accordingly.
I was excited and even enchanted the lightning attribute.
But, what the hell is this?
“Bjorn! there!”
I don’t know who it is, but I spit shit on my plans.
Are you a player?
Or is it just someone with a lot of knowledge in this world?
Well, you can feel it when you go in.
Whoops!
A portal was formed in the direction Misha was pointing.
Perhaps by now, thousands of portals had been created all over the first floor.
“Misha!”
I could fall, so I grabbed Misha and hugged her in my arms.
And slipped into the portal.
***
“The character has entered the first floor rift.”
***
Quang-!
After landing with a heavy noise, he lowered the Misha he was holding.
And immediately looked around.
Perhaps they had barely boarded the last train, and three men and women had already entered the crack.
First, we took a closer look at each one.
“Oh, being a barbarian and a beast is already reliable. nice to meet you Call me Carlson.”
Once a human man.
He is 170 cm tall and his weapon is a sword.
Let’s express our first impressions with animals… … .
Well, I think a rat would be good enough.
“… It won’t be a burden. Abman Urikfried.”
The second is a beautician male.
Judging by the round ears that sprouted from the top of his head, he seems to be from the Black Bear tribe, one of the seven major tribes.
Characteristics are his muscular body, and an extra-large crossbow reminiscent of a siege weapon.
“hello. My name is Jencia Naphrin. The weapon is this sword here. I will try my best not to become a lung.”
The last one is a human woman.
He is about 160 cm tall and has a curly face.
Also, surprisingly, she has black hair and twintails.
It’s not that I don’t like it, but I’m sure there are people out there who wear this kind of hairstyle.
Anyway, now it was our turn, so I introduced myself as the representative.
“I am Bjorn son of Thor, this is Michelle. As you can see, they are a group.”
“yes?”
yea what is yea

Misha pursed her lips as if she had noticed my intention when I sent her a glance to stay still. Then he relaxed his eyes and looked into the air.
… Is that his poker face?
It was strange at first glance, so he led the conversation before attention was drawn.
“I took on the role of a guardian within the labyrinth, and I am most confident. What are you guys good at?”
When entering the rift, checking each other’s power is the most basic procedure.
“I am a sword! Oh, and he ate the essence of a goblin archer, and he was trained as a hunter from a young age, so he has some knowledge of traps and mechanical devices.”
A woman named Jencia described herself in more detail.
Not a goblin swordsman, but the essence of an archer?
As soon as I heard it, I wondered if there was such a thing as such, but it wasn’t something to be deeply concerned about.
It’s not even my character.
At first, just by looking at the equipment, I could tell that he was a novice.
“I mainly use swords and shields. that… Mr. Bjorn? Anyway, it’s not as good as that one, but when I was working as a team, I played a role in receiving attacks from the vanguard.”
Swordsman Warrior Carlson was better than Zencia, but in the end he was similar.
At least about the middle of the second floor?
However, seeing that she does not reveal her essence as naively as the previous woman, her experience seems to be of great value.
Well, maybe I didn’t eat it.
‘Besides electric power, there are two beginners… … .’
Well, I kind of expected it.
The situation is different from when I met Hikurod and Raven. It’s only been three months since the rift opened, so it’s impossible to know in advance and wait.
Even that was open on the first day, so it was only this much, or it must have been full of locals who couldn’t even go to the second floor.
‘In that sense, it’s also award-winning.’
I turned my gaze to the last turn.
But did you accept it as a urging to introduce yourself?
“As you can see.”
Uncle Bear with forage, beard, and muscular attributes shrugged his large crossbow on his back.
He was the only mid-level explorer of the three.
I asked bluntly, like a barbarian.
“I wish I could tell you how reliable it is.”
“In that case, shouldn’t you be the first to say it?”
Uh, that’s right.
“I am a level 6 explorer, and Michelle is a level 7 explorer. Originally, I was mainly active on the 4th floor.”
“Okay, I’m level 5.”
Shiba, you were a senior, not a middle-class.
Usually, level 6 is called intermediate, level 5 is high, and level 4 is the highest level explorer.
From level 6 onwards, the guild conducts a promotion review, and the gap between the levels widens enormously.
Go ahead, this makes me even more suspicious.
“Why is there a level 6 explorer here?”
“Isn’t that the same for you?”
Zep, what kind of uncle doesn’t say a word?
“… We originally worked as a team, but due to circumstances, the two of us joined. I haven’t been able to go up to the second floor yet because there is no explorer, but a crack opened and I came in.”
When the rift was opened, the answer I prepared to tell you at that time if there was anyone suspicious.
but… … .
“It’s a coincidence. I am similar Well, it’s been a while since I left the original team.”
Whoops, Nemil.
‘Is it true, Guraya?’
I wonder if arrowwraps that are tough enough to solo play really exist, but when I see that macho uncle’s face, I understand.
‘But first, I have to be the most careful about this man.’
Uncle Bear was designated as the No. 1 alert target.
The force he has is also powerless, but every situation is suspicious.
‘If it’s not this man in the first place, there is no one who can go to the 2nd floor at this time to dig up Grade 8 Mana Stones.’
Of course, this is a story only when you look at the circumstances that have been revealed.
Carlson and Jencia.
The possibility that these two are hiding their skills cannot be ruled out.
“Oh, but who came in first?”
Soon, I asked calmly, as if asking a question out of pure curiosity.
Who really opened the crack?
In fact, unless the three of them are in the same vein, this question alone will obscure their identity.
However… … .
“I do not know? I think we all came together… … .”
“It’s so simultaneous, I don’t think anyone can say who came first.”
“You care about weird things.”
Am I not allowed to eat me after all?
After that, fuck you.
This isn’t a mafia game.
***
Someone unknown opened the crack.
This deviated from my plans in many respects.
First of all, there is the issue of distribution.
“Okay then, it’s decided.”
After discussion, me, Misha, and Mister Bear each got three shares, and Carlson and Jencia… In short, it was agreed that ‘Jensen’ would share a share.
Because the world of explorers is heartless.
“It won’t be that bad. I will give you all the remaining essence.”
“Yes… … .”
This is commonly referred to as kicking a ladder.
That’s what the dwarfs and ravens did to me in Blood Citadel.
By the way, that’s what I did too.
Well, what is left of concession and consideration in such a place?
‘Zeep, there’s a lot of acknowledgment different from how you look. I told you not to give me magic stones.’

My plan was to open the rift by day 3 or so.
And I tried to make it all take-out among the locals on the first floor and just take care of it.
However, there was a variable called Uncle Bear, and he had no choice but to make significant concessions in distribution.
First of all, Misha decided to eat the Guardian Essence… … .
When a number item or a rift stone is dropped, I have to roll the dice with Mr. Bear.
‘Ha, I’m not sure about dice.’
Novel from https://noblemtl.net
My stomach hurts already.
Not Jill herself, because she doesn’t have the confidence to win.
That’s why I didn’t want to create the dice variable itself… … .
“Then let’s get going.”
Shake off your regrets and move forward.
Behind me, there are ‘Jensen’ on both sides, behind me is Uncle Bear, and behind me is Misha.
Jigsaw.
As if walking on thin ice, you hear cracks with every step you take.
It wasn’t even a bad description.
We were just passing over a frozen lake.
Fortunately, it was part of the misfortune.
‘I can use the things I’ve prepared.’
There are a total of four cracks on the first floor.
Depending on the type of monsters appearing, the difficulty level, as well as the rewards, are different.
So where do we go?
After much deliberation, I chose one place, and coincidentally, that was the place I was walking right now.
[Glacier Cave]
A level 8 monster that appears in the 2nd floor Beast’s Lair.
A rift that opens when you offer that monster’s manastone to the altar.
For reference, the selection criterion was only Misha.
Well, I also became level 4 this time, and there was only one Essence digit left… … .
‘I mean, there is nothing to eat.’
If you say crack, it’s a first floor crack.
Even Guardians are only level 7, and they don’t even spit out the essence that suits me.
‘In the first place, this uncle willingly surrendered the essence, probably that’s why.’
Anyway, so I decided that it would be more efficient to raise Misha for now and use it to fill in the blanks with better essence later—.
Uh, no, but wait.
For some reason, it seems like this was the case last time, but Ainar left for the Holy Land… … .
‘I hope it won’t happen again this time… ji?’
“Why do you suddenly stop?”
“It is nothing.”
I brushed away the thoughts that had suddenly arisen and focused on my surroundings.
Still, it’s not like you’ve entered the crack.
Besides, there is also an unknown mafia, so it’s not the time to be mesmerized.
aa-.
frozen snow mountain.
Snowflakes scattering from above.
And the sun’s rays reflected off the ice and felt even warmer.
‘It’s strange to be in a dark place every day and come to a place like this.’
After walking for about 30 minutes, the lake zone ended, and a suspicious oyster appeared underground.
For reference, there was one monster blocking the way.
“Goo!”
Level 7 Monster Yeti.
A gatekeeper-class elite monster that appears only in the ‘Glacier Cave’ and appears from the beginning.
As soon as he saw us, he muttered as he saw the man spit out a menacing roar.
“Wait, do I really have to grab that and go downstairs?”
The answer came from Mr. Bear.
“I don’t know what this place is like, but in a rift, the road is usually where the monsters are.”
An answer that makes you nod your head as a gamer.
I’m getting more suspicious… … .
“Don’t go out and die, you guys stay behind.”
“… Is it really okay?”
At Uncle Bear’s kind consideration, ‘Jensen’ looked at me and Misha. Seriously, I have no conscience to risk my life fighting with a guy like that because of only 10% of the Mana Stones.
So I just said so.
It seems like it would only be uncomfortable if you were lying next to each other in the first place.
“I do it first.”
Soon, Uncle Bear lowered the oversized crossbow from his back for the first time.
and… … .
Whoo-!!
The battle began by shooting arrows.
