Regression Is Too Much

25 – The boss is too weak (5)

“… I didn’t know that goblin could talk.”

This is the first word that firefighter Cheoljin Park said.

“Keruk… I can’t see, I can’t hear well… Only the sense of smell is sensitive. Keruk. I didn’t even know you guys existed. Keruk.”

“… “

So I guess I noticed it because I smelled it.

I couldn’t take a bath because there was no river, but I diligently wiped it off with water…

“So, let’s roll the Minotaur and drown it in the swamp?”

Choi Ji-won asks me with his arms crossed.

I nodded slightly.

“Of course it would be impossible, but… we are superhumans You can’t think of it with common sense.”

“It seems possible if done well, but… “

Choi Ji-won shrugs once.

“As I said beforehand, all the people in the clearing have low levels or no level. That doesn’t mean it won’t help.”

Choi Ji-won speaks clearly. That was something I already knew.

“To be honest, I am a gambler. I don’t see it as highly likely.”

This time, firefighter Park Chul-jin said with a grin.

“But… I like it.”

He seemed to like the part about being able to save everyone without a victim.

“Let’s see… We may try to gather people in our group, but not many people have invested heavily in strength.”

“How many people do you think will be possible?”

“… 5 People. Nothing more.”

Then, Choi Ji-won. Cheoljin Park. And 5 members of Park Cheol-jin’s group. At least 3 more are needed.

Why am I taking it off? I shouldn’t return if I go near the swamp.

“First of all, let’s gather people who don’t belong to Gongteo or Mr. Park Cheol-jin’s group.”

When the plan succeeded, no one should have died of starvation somewhere without even knowing the existence of the portal.

Gathering the wandering people together was a necessary procedure.

“And once people get together, let’s get applicants there, right?”

It was a bonus to be able to get the cooperation of the strong among the people gathered.

“… Hmm. I guess I can do it to gather the others in the forest. Some of my co-workers have search-type characteristics.”

Firefighter Park Cheol-jin nods.

Again, the biggest advantage of this plan is that there are no victims.

With success, no one can die. Everyone survives, and at the same time, you can take down the Minotaur.

“Now then, I will be guarding the goblin shaman, so let’s all scatter… “

“Keruk… human. If you do that, you have a problem.”

“What?”

The goblin shaman, who had only a few lines left, suddenly made a sliding tackle like Kim Min-jae.

“If you roll the outer shield like that, the structure of the seal’s magical power will be destroyed. Keruk.”

“… Are you saying it’s broken?”

“It will definitely explode. Keruk. About half of the island will be blown away.”

“… “

Then… This plan is pointless.

However, the goblin shaman’s words were not over.

“But there is a solution. Kelluck. Kelluck. You just need to reinforce the magic structure of the outer seal. Keruk.”

Beans. A goblin shaman struggling with his staff.

“I know that humans are looking for small pieces of gold that have mystical powers. Keruk. I need that.”

“… Golden beads?”

A goblin shaman who asks for a ‘gold item with mystical powers’.

It seems that what he is asking for is a golden orb.

“Keluck, Keluck… As you can see I am dying. Lack of strength You must borrow the power of gold. Keruk.”

“How many do you need?”

“The more the better. Keluck… No time, man. I’m dying soon… “

“… “

It is said that golden beads are needed, so it feels like the risk of the operation is rising rapidly.

“… Hey. Any other way? You said you had a good method.”

I tried to ask the goblin shaman to tell me another way out of regret.

“You can release the outer seal in about 3 seconds, while maintaining the inner seal that binds the monster. Keruk. Smash the monster for 3 seconds. Keruk.”

“… Don’t you need a golden ball for that?”

“No. Keruk. Both methods of cracking are necessary.”

The method the goblin shaman was trying to propose in the first place also required a golden bead.

Firefighter Park Cheol-jin turns his head and looks at me.

“Junho-kun… What should I do?”

We are at a crossroads.

The path of sacrificing Choi Ji-won was a pass in the first place.

Let’s say you offer a golden orb to a goblin shaman…

Are you going to go head-to-head with the Minotaur with a 3 second advantage?

Or are you going to bet on the gamble of rolling him round and round and drowning him in a swamp?

“The golden orb is the last bastion. Can you trust the goblins?”

Firefighter Cheoljin Park asked.

“… “

Can I trust this goblin?

The worry was short, and the decision was quick.

There is a saying that the enemy of an enemy is an ally.

“Trust me. Let’s roll it.”

And I was a natural gambler.

People who stayed in the vacant lot.

People who worked with firefighter Park Cheol-jin.

And roaming in groups of their own, those who heard of our plans and joined them.

When I gathered all of them together, it seemed that there were almost 90 to 100 people.

Considering that 200 people were summoned to the clearing for the first time, the number was reduced by about half.

There must be an overwhelmingly greater number of dead people than those who escaped by eating marbles.

“Anyway, Mr. Beads is dry. This is my only hope.”

“Rather than killing my friend and surviving… I will bet on the possibility that everyone can live.”

What was unexpected was that more people than expected supported our plan.

Among the dogs, there were also quite strong ones, but most of them were summoned to the tower with lovers or friends.

Also… There are many bad people, but there are still many good people in the world.

“Shall we shout Fighting and go?”

“Good. One. Two three!”

“””Fighting!!!”””

A cooperative front was created for a common goal.

God may have longed for our division, but despite this, humanity is united.

“Keruk… still lacking give me more marbles Keruk.”

“… Be patient, booby. You can’t kill me.”

The total number of golden marbles stored by firefighter Park Chul-jin and Choi Ji-won exceeded about 20, but the goblin shaman grunted that there were not enough.

In the end, the goblin shaman nodded slightly after giving away two more golden orbs I had been thinking about.

“… That’s enough. Keluck, Keluck… Everyone get away Keruk.”

He held a bag full of golden marbles in one hand, and waved the staff in the other hand into the air.

“KUL, NAL, TAR, AR, AIS… “

As he uttered a strange language, the spherical protective shield surrounding the Minotaur slowly began to glow.

“Humans, now! There is no time! Keruk… Keluk, keluk, kueek….”

The goblin shaman was overpowered, and a bowlful of blood mixed with pieces of organs poured out of her mouth.

“… Everyone, check your masks.”

“I am ready.”

“Huu, bastard. What it looks like is bloody bloody.”

“Let’s all live together. In the first place, I really didn’t like marbles or anything.”

Avengers in the tutorial warming up by turning their shoulders.

It was announced in advance that the air coming out of the swamp was mildly toxic, so everyone was wearing shoddy pieces of cloth around their mouths as masks.

It won’t be very effective, but it’s better than nothing.

By the way, I pretended to be protecting the goblin shaman, since breathing the swamp air will make you return.

If someone suddenly turns around and kills the shaman, everyone will be screwed.

“Now, I will give you strength according to my commands.”

Firefighter Park Cheol-jin with a nervous expression stood in the center in front of the beads.

His characteristic is ‘Iron Man’.

It is a characteristic that strengthens the body and dramatically improves physical strength.

“Guuu!”

The Minotaur struggled as if it realized that humans were trying to commit something.

“Keruk… I will stop! Now!”

From noble mtl dot com

The goblin shaman’s staff emitted light.

“Come on! One!”

“””One!!!”””

According to Park Cheol-jin’s command, everyone started to push the protective shield.

Veins swell in people’s arms, and the ground they step on is dug deep.

“Keuuu… “

Choi Ji-won, whose face turned red after giving him strength. It’s the first time I see something like that.

Excited.

“… sh*t.”

The protective shield surrounding the Minotaur shook slightly, but did not move.

Is it lack of strength even though only those with high strength ability were carefully selected?

“Whoa. Everyone lose your strength. I will take a break and come back.”

“This… It is not easy to apply force because the soil is deeply sunk.”

A man talking while rubbing his heated palms. As he said, the floor collapsed and the shield did not have enough power.

“… I think I can solve that.”

Among the people cheering for the pushing of the shield, a skinny young man walked out.

“I’ve been hiding my traits for a while, but… My characteristic is hardening. I can make the ground you are stepping on hard.”

When the man touched the soil, the relatively soft dirt floor hardened.

“Me too… I’ll help too!”

The person who came out this time was Baek Da-hye, a woman with bobbed hair.

“I… It has buff abilities! Although the grade is low… I will do my best!”

“Oh, oh oh… “

As the energy emanating from her hands wrapped around people’s bodies, the expressions of those who were out of breath became more comfortable.

“Me too… !”

“I also have a helpful trait… !”

People with plausible characteristics directly supported those who pushed the shield.

“I don’t have any skills, but… I will cheer you on!”

“You can do it! Can do!”

“We… will survive! I will survive this dog-like tower!”

“Fighting! Awesome! Let’s go!”

Those who failed to do so shouted cheers.

Not everyone was pushing their shields, but everyone was of one mind.

“Everyone… thank you.”

Firefighter Park Cheol-jin sniffs his nose as if his emotions were rising.

“For sure… Let’s make sure to survive! Let’s survive together! I’m going again! Hanaaa!!!!”

“””One!”””

Exciting!

“Two!”

“””Two!!!”””

Exciting!!!

“Three!!!”

“””Seee!!!!!”””

Woojijik!!!

Is it because of everyone’s hearts?

The spherical protective shield firmly embedded in the soil began to move with a roar.

“… Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.”

“The lower jaw… mandible… Mandible… “

People who breathe heavily.

There are even people who clench their teeth so strongly that blood flows from their gums.

But this is just the beginning. The remaining distance to the swamp is about 50 meters.

“… Oh goblin. How much longer can you hold out?”

Both arms of the shaman holding the golden orb and staff were trembling tremendously.

“Keluck… cool… Big… Until I die, I think I can hold on. Human. How long do you think I will die?”

“… “

Time is running out.
