Chapter 53: Fungi-eating Ape

It is certainly a relief to be safe and sound, but unlike Mikoto's original idea, Amprisa also entered the Chaos Sanctuary - although she was completely unaware of the name and meaning of the palace, and Siones was also accompanied by Siones. According to Amprisa, after discovering Mikoto's disappearance, she and Siones searched in the palace for a long time but found nothing, and finally returned here for no reason - this experience seemed too simple, which surprised Mikoto for a moment.

An empty palace, no humans, or even no demons. Of course, Amplisa did not encounter a demon. Otherwise, she would not even be able to fight back with her power. But this luck also made Mikoto wonder. Does the Dark Wanderer have any reason to let Amplisa go alone? Mikoto certainly would not doubt Amplisa, but as for Sainz, who appeared with Amplisa...

Although the man had never acted out of order, perhaps because of intuition, Mikoto was always inexplicably alert to him. Of course, this unproof vigilance does not mean anything. Being safe and sound is better than anything else.

If you count the harvest this time, the most abundant thing is of course the 500 reward. Mikoto, who has some understanding of the price of the reward points that can be exchanged for items, can understand more clearly. Once she returns to the main god space, what these 500 reward points mean. But in addition, the pair of pure gold boots also made her care a little.

I believe that any player who has played "Dark" will be interested in green outfits. This type of equipment has a very low explosion rate. It is really a test of character to get a set of people in the same series. Back then, Mikoto was lucky in the game and got a "Akana's Death Staff" in the early stage, but in order to find the rest of the parts to get the "Akana's Scheme" set, she searched around for several months but found nothing, and finally had to leave it alone.

The entire set of green equipment can often add additional defense, strength, mana and even skill points. In addition, in some cases, you can also obtain some rare hidden attributes, without much need to say anything about the effect. This time, there is a rare opportunity to obtain a complete set through a series of tasks. Mikoto is really unwilling to miss it. The task with the total difficulty to S level is amazing. I believe that the rewarded set will not be too cold. The gold color like glass flowing like ordinary goods is not like ordinary goods. Mikoto believes that the real attributes of the equipment will never be as simple as the surface.

The sky outside the mausoleum was dark. After checking the time, Mikoto found that it was already dawn and they stayed in the mausoleum for a whole night. It took only three days to set off from Roger Camp. Although a series of accidents made Mikoto a little mentally and physically exhausted, the materials prepared were sufficient and there was no need to go back to replenish them for the time being.

"Sir Seines, since you have found out the reason for the sacrifice of the Templar, you should have gone to the monastery, right?" Mikoto's words were rarely so respectful, but this could not hide the obvious driving away in her tone.

"Monastery?" Seines raised his eyebrows, then waved his hand as if insignificantly, "Ah, that's probably not. The Blind Sisters' Monastery was captured by the demons of hell two days ago."

The man said something in a relaxed tone, but in this dullness, which shocked Mikoto, and Ampalis even screamed!

"What did you say, Lord Synes?!"

The monastery is a fortress for humans to fight against demons, and its military status is more important than the Rogge camp! The conquest of the monastery is something that has not happened for thousands of years since the three demon gods were sealed. What it means is self-evident, and Ampalisa's panic is taken for granted.

"Are you kidding, Lord Sainz?" If it were normal for Amprisa, she would definitely not use such suspicious words to the senior officials of the Blind Nun Society, but this time the other party's remarks were too shocking, and the calm expression on the other party's face made it difficult to believe what he said.

"Kidding? I think Lord Mikoto has known about this a long time ago, right?"

"Er..." Although Mikoto expressed surprise just now, her surprise was different from Amprisa. Of course, she had known that the monastery would fall. In the game, this was something that had happened before the opening of the plot. She was mentally prepared for this, and Mikoto was surprised by the rapid speed of hell. There was no sign of any sign when they left Roger camp three days ago, and now everything has settled.

"Sure enough, you know." Sainz smiled unexpectedly when Mikoto didn't refute.

"But...but, Lord Synez, Lord Mikoto, there is a monastery! How could it be so easy..."

"It's Andalil." Mikoto answered this time, but she did not say another more terrifying name. But this was enough. The deterrence of torture the queen made Amprisa take a breath, opened her mouth but didn't know what to say, as if she had seen the end of the world.

The saying of the end of the world may not be exaggerated. In the near future, the three demons awaken one after another and use magical tools to deceive the guardians of the Holy Mountain into invading the World Stone Hall on the top of Mount Arite. Once the World Stone is controlled by it, the real end of the world will follow.

――

Further east of the Taimo Heights is a desert. The vast sea of ​​sand has swallowed too much life. It is a forbidden zone of life and a corridor of death. But if you cross this desert, the other side is the famous coastal city - the prosperous Lugaoin. People from the wastelands choose to sail from the sea more often. Although the sea often engulfs ships with anger, the sea route is obviously safer than crossing the desert.

But at this time, humans appeared in the desert of the forbidden zone of life, two travelers who were accompanying each other.

"We have to hurry up...Mallover, time..." The dark figure in a cloak spoke intermittently, but it was not because of weakness, but more like unfamiliar with the language belonging to humans.

The man who is called Mallov is a man with gray hair, but in fact his real age is much younger than his appearance. In fact, until now he doesn't know why he is traveling or why he follows the mysterious man in front of him. Perhaps because of that nightmare, Mallov felt that he seemed to be lying in the tavern drunkenly, surrounded by the noisy sound. This journey full of yellow sand and the hotel with cheap wine, can no longer tell which one is true.

The tavern was burning in the fire, and a group of demons danced in the flames of hell...

"Oh, damn it, I have to take a rest and drink some water. You know, I am not a great warrior like you." Shaking my head to wake up, Malloff said in a hoarse voice.

"Rest...yes, you will get a rest, a long rest, but now it's not possible. Marx, my brother is waiting for me." The dark wanderer wrapped in a cloak seemed to moaning the dead man from hell. From under the cloak a piece of finger like a dead bone, a trace of black mist that was difficult to distinguish from the naked eye floated out of his hand and penetrated into the middle of Marix's eyebrows.

Malloff's originally tired steps gradually became lighter, but on the contrary, his swollen face became paler, and his dull eyes were blurred, as if he was sleepwalking.

Suddenly, the Dark Wanderer's forward steps stopped. Although the appearance blocked by the hood could not be seen, a surprised light "Huh" came from the shadow under the hood. He turned around and looked at the West who was left far behind.

"The magic circle was destroyed? Although it was just a toy... interesting, maybe I should expect some..." The steps stopped slightly, but after just a moment of stopping, the Dark Wanderer walked forward again. He could no longer wait, and no one could stop him, whether it was the hateful humans, the betrayed demons, or the gods who thought they were arrogant.

"Let's go, Mallover, we'll get faster."

Darkness is growing and spreading, constantly moving its pace. Mikoto doesn't know all this, or even if she knows it now, she is unable to stop it. At this time, they are wandering in the dense forest.

This is the border of the cold land. Although the altitude is high, the climate is not lacking in moistness and dense vegetation grows. The dense broad-leaved forest is lush and the night moisture is shrouded in the woods. The entire forest is covered in fog.

"Master Mikoto, maybe we can stop and rest for a while." Amprisa proposed this was not due to physical strength. In fact, they had only rested half an hour ago, but it was not a safe thing to rush through the foggy rain forest.

Nodding, Mikoto agreed with Amprisa's judgment. There was a lot of fog in the dense forest and her vision was greatly hindered. It was indeed very dangerous to rush to travel under such circumstances. At this moment, Mikoto's expression moved and she gestured to Amprisa and Saince. The three of them stopped leaning against the big tree.

Without waiting for Amprisa to ask softly, Mikoto moved her wrist and the invisible magic wave suddenly shot out. Then a heavy object fell to the ground in the forest not far away.

Spiritual transmission is a spell that Mikoto didn't care too much about in the game, but it felt very easy to use at this time. Although the damage is not great, the key is speed and concealment, making the opponent unable to defend.

Carefully walked towards the direction where the heavy object fell to the ground, and pushed aside the bushes that blocked the view. What appeared in front of Mikoto was a grass-green "little monkey". Its hair color was exactly the same as the surrounding trees. If it were not for the magic fluctuations unique to monsters, Mikoto would be noticed, such a perfect camouflage color would be difficult to detect even if it was standing in front of her.

This is a species that has never appeared in the game. It was knocked unconscious after one hit of the soul transmission, and there was no sign of waking up. Its strength was obviously pitiful. However, Mikoto cared more about other things. Behind the monster, it was actually a bamboo basket that was obviously hand-woven. Although the workmanship was pitiful, it did not hinder its function.

"This is the 'fungi ape', one of the lowest level monsters in hell," Sainz said, "and he has weak power. He usually relies on eating magical minerals and fungi in hell for a living, but obviously, it seems that the plants on earth are more in line with their appetite."

As Sainz said, the items collected by the fungus apes in the bamboo basket all had a magical feeling, which made Mikoto's eyes shine. I believe that no alchemist - even if she is just an apprentice, would not be interested in magical materials.

The entire bamboo basket was a little blue. When Mikoto carefully opened it, she screamed in surprise. Of course, this "shock" was a surprise.

"Hiss-it turned out to be ice matsutake!"
