Episode 164 – Virtual Labyrinth

The head of the last Minotaur fell to the floor.

How long did it take you to clear all 8 of them? 22 Seconds? 23 Seconds?

I think it took about that long, but the result was not bad for a fight while keeping the amount of magic power to a minimum.

If I used more strength for no reason, I would have lost more stamina than I do now.

If I had used more mana… It would have been less strain on the body than it is now.

The air in the labyrinth is full of demonic energy.

Considering that the speed of magic recovery is nearly 7 times slower than outside, it was better to save magic even if the body was a little more tired.

Anyway, the body will be fine if it is rested.

Kania hmm… She murmured softly and wiped her blood off her knife.

What didn’t she like? Or maybe she was rather nice.

It’s hard to read Kania’s thoughts because she doesn’t show her emotions well on the outside.

“Not bad.”

Clap clap. Stia, who clapped her hands, approached, she said. On both sides of her were Dina and Scarlett, who had been trembling as if they wanted to help her from earlier.

Should I be happy with Stia’s praise? She didn’t get a good feel for it.

She just nodded her head, so she didn’t respond. It was the same with Kania.

Everyone knew roughly the guidelines for action in the labyrinth, so no one bothered to mention that I fought while conserving my magic.

Of course, after the abduction of Odin’s Eye Labyrinth, the academy taught me various things.

It was the first time that such a thing had happened, but it proved that the academy was not an impenetrable place.

‘I must have wanted to be prepared for something else to happen.’

There was also an academy raid a few days after the Labyrinth incident.

Because of this, the academy changed its education policy.

So far, how to deal with villains. What to do in case of monsters. I told you about the habits and characteristics of the monsters that have been revealed so far.

Of course, it wasn’t that I didn’t tell you those things even now….

Rather than how to win against opponents, I started to teach them how to deal with unexpected situations.

When you are suddenly attacked. When I was kidnapped by the Labyrinth. What to do when you encounter an enemy much stronger than yourself.

To put it simply, until now, if we had been teaching monsters’ weaknesses and how to win, now we’re teaching them how to survive.

I am quite happy with that fact.

Considering that soon the whole world might turn into a battlefield, it would be much better this way.

No matter how many times you know the weaknesses of the monsters you can deal with, you will face an enemy much stronger than yourself and die meaninglessly without being able to resist.

That’s because that’s the battlefield fighting the demons.

When the war begins in earnest, you will be called to the battlefield regardless of whether you specialize in villains or monsters.

The world seems to be destroyed by monsters right away, but there is no time to deal with villains.

Among the villains, there must be people who don’t want to die, so they step in and help. On the other hand, there are people who run away.

‘There may be bastards who are out of their minds and commit crimes….’

Just because the heroes went to the battlefield doesn’t mean they don’t pay any attention to what’s inside.

If a villain appears to create a commotion, heroes will be dispatched from battlefields where the situation is relatively good.

Actually, the world will become more and more chaotic because there will be far more villains trying to take advantage of the chaos than there are villains trying to live.

‘I’m already tired just thinking about it, really.’

Even if you somehow overcome the monsters and subdue the demon king, it doesn’t end there.

Because the first to greet the heroes who have returned from the battlefield are the villains who have grown up.

Seriously, why was he thrown into this world?

The Minotaur took care of everything, but didn’t put Durandal in.

For some time to come, Kania and I would be in charge of all battles.

Since you never know what might happen suddenly in the labyrinth, a few people had to be in perfect condition to do their best.

I don’t think it’s going to be dangerous on the 1st floor with specs like ours, but….

Labyrinths are called labyrinths because you don’t know what will happen.

Even if it’s on the first floor, how do you know if an insurmountable enemy will suddenly appear?

Even if it is an enemy you can stand against, you will have no choice but to struggle if your stamina is exhausted.

In the labyrinth, even if you win, just struggling is a huge loss.

That’s why safety rule No. 1 In the labyrinth is to use physical strength and magical power to a minimum. Number 2 is to keep some of them in perfect condition.

Of course, by the time Kania and I are almost completely exhausted, we will take turns.

We moved on.

As it is a virtual world, it was not as good as the Labyrinth of Odin’s Eye… There was one thing that was better than that.

Since the labyrinth created in Odin’s Eye was built outside, and even in the sky, the wind blew in from the exit.

If it had been closer to the real Babel, there is a possibility that even the wind wouldn’t have come in… Because Odin’s eyes couldn’t do that.

But this place is different.

The wind is completely blocked.

‘I can’t find my way through the wind blowing in.’

In the end, it meant that I had to move as far as my feet could and hope for an exit from this side.

Starting from the 4th or 5th floor of Babel, there are hints that are difficult to interpret in order to check the qualifications of the person who entered the labyrinth….

Until then, it feels like a tutorial to learn the controls. There are no hints.

As I walked around without knowing the direction, I ended up hovering in the same place several times, and various monsters suddenly appeared.

Among them, the one that stood out the most was the centaur.

Unlike the Minotaur, which was huge and only had a head of a cow, it was a monster with a human upper body and a lower body of a horse.

He was holding a huge halberd in his hand, and the sight of him running and wielding the halberd at random was horrific.

At least, it’s a shame because everyone here is a skilled person.

Moreover, centaurs are originally a group of people.

I don’t know if it’s because of the labyrinth, or if it’s because he’s somehow separated from the group.

If a group of centaurs appeared on the battlefield….

‘I don’t even want to imagine it.’

Centaurs are fairly powerful monsters with a low risk level of C+ and a high level of B.

Even if a group of 10 of them go around, they can rightly be called an army.

If there were no great wizards or sword masters on the battlefield, they would be annihilated.

Even assuming I was on a battlefield like that, I wasn’t sure that I would be able to easily defeat 10 centaurs on a wide open plain.

Still, the centaur we met was alone in a narrow labyrinth where it was difficult for him to run freely, so it wasn’t too difficult to deal with.

‘The tentacle monster… I can’t see it either.’

In the past, most monsters in Odin’s Eye Labyrinth had tentacles.

Some arms turned into sharp tentacles and flew away, while others turned their entire bodies into tentacles.

It’s not once or twice that I almost died from being pierced through the neck or chest by those tentacles.

‘If I hadn’t met Kania by chance….’

I must have died there.

Slowly!

It wasn’t until it was time to cut down another skeleton soldier that I remembered that it was only natural that there were no tentacle monsters.

Each floor in the labyrinth has its own theme.

The labyrinth on the first floor is a common underground dungeon. Monsters such as Skeleton Soldiers and Minotaurs appear.

The second floor is a desert. Monsters such as giant centipedes and sand worms appear.

On the 3rd floor, which is the glacier area, rainwater pours down like ice trolls.

However, there was no mention of tentacle monsters anywhere. No, it might be there if you go higher, but at least the academy didn’t teach you.

The 4th and 5th floors are currently being raided, and it’s a secret that can’t be easily disclosed to the outside world.

Besides, even if there are tentacle monsters, they will be very different from the ones you saw in Odin’s Eye Labyrinth.

Basically, it will be much stronger… Above all, there is no possibility that they are artificially created.

Because the labyrinth created in Odin’s Eye was actually a Chimera’s laboratory.

I don’t know how they captured it. A few minotaurs were rampaging, but most of them wielded sharp tentacles.

A bizarre appearance with corpses spliced together….

The boss guarding the exit was particularly terrifying.

‘What was the boss monster on the 1st floor of Babel?’

I think it was probably a mutant minotaur, as far as I remember.

The only thing I remember clearly was that there were also two giant golems.

I’m sure the academy told me, and if this virtual labyrinth really closely followed the real Babel.

‘I’m sure the boss monsters are the same ones.’

I think that would be enough for me and Kania to clear the first floor.

The problem is… Although the point is that we have to find the boss room first before both of us run out of stamina.
