Chapter 71: What is Waiting Ahead
In the white room, I questioned Arisu on the looks of the enemy.
I feel that the size of the Mage Orc is different.
「Although I saw it with the light from the torch for an instant, but I can’t see it properly, I guess it is because the orc is wearing a robe. Other than that, it is holding a staff in its right hand.」
「It is the same as the previous report. That staff….. Does it have an increase in effect like games?」
「Something like attack of Wind Magic will increase…...」
Mia looked at me without any expression.
That face seems to show an expression of「I want」.
Maa maa, since there is that sort of special effect, I don’t see why we can’t give it to Mia immediately.
「What kind of magic did it use?」
「It used 《Lightning》 once, but I endured it. It is quite painful, but it did not affect me very much. Then the orc tried to escape by becoming invisible…...」
《Invisibility》huh?
But once you used that, you can’t run.
「After swinging around the spear suitably, I seemed to have hit the orc’s head, and he fell rolling on the ground. So I directly stabbed down on the head to kill it.」
No doubt she is Arisu, a true warrior.
She is completely merciless.
With a splendid judgement.
「What about the enemies nearby.」
「There aren’t any. They could be hidden in the deeper parts…… or all the orcs are already dead, probably changed into gems.」
That is also possible.
I don’t know how many 《Lightning》 Mia had released into the cave.
I don’t even know the effects of it.
Until now, I don’t even know the level of the General.
It could be level 15 or so.
If I am not wrong, it could be from level 15-20.
As for the Mage’s level….. I guess it will be around level 10.
Hence it can use Wind Magic, and until Rank 3.
From a game’s consideration, orcs are not good at magic, with such settings, there could be a slight difference in this area.
Maa, if those guys appear again, then we will understand it.
To deal with this sort of situation in the future, should Arisu focu on raising her Spear Skill?
Ah, the one that should focus on leveling should be Mia.
「When you have 6 skill point, Mia, for Wind Magic and Earth Magic, which one do you want to raise?」
「Such a headache…...」
Mia groan while crossing her arms.
She was so troubled until she frowned.
「Kazu-chi. What do you think will occur from now on?」
「First of all, I am curious about what is going on in the deep parts of the cave…… And another question is why did the Giant Wasps appear in huge numbers.」
「Hmm, and the stone pillar that we found around the bottom of the mountain.」
「Don’t tell me it is connected to some other places like a gate?」
Mia and I looked at each other’s face.
「Ah ah? Kazu-san and Mia seemed to have understood something? How come I completely don’t understand anything?」
「I understand, so I will explain it for you. Since new enemies have appeared today, so perhaps new powers could be born here, which could be due to a hidden item, like a certain something that I saw with you.」
「Only me and Kazu-san…… Ah, the stone pillar! But that…...」
「Yes, that was something there that we could not read. But after using 《Read Language》 to read it. The content is 『fixed coordinate, space search, restrict scope』.」
Mia was groaning that「no matter how you see it, it is a transfer gate, but still thanks.」
「Since there is something like a transfer gate, what should we do Kazu-san, destroy it?」
「No, if it is possible, before making such a decision, we should investigate what is on the other side of the gate. Using familiar and 《Remote Viewing》, we could conduct a somewhat safe investigation on the other side.」
「Is it, a suicide special attack scout is really convenient.」
Yes, after summoning then granting support magic to it. When it is fighting with enemies of the same rank, it is a great strength.
The only problem is, if there are countless of the same-ranked enemies, then there is nothing we can do.
Hahaha, as the parasite of the party, I must also work hard from now on.
「If it is just like Shiki-san said, since there is the existence of a transfer gate, then there is 2 possible goals now.」
「2? Huh, Shiki-san?」
「During yesterday…… That person has already considered all sorts of scenario.」
Even Mia mumbled 「Where did the Anego come from」in shock. (TL note: Elder Sis = Anego, indicates respect. Used for female gangster boss too)
Anego huh, oi, where is the gangster part.
「Although we say that there are 2 goals, which is to send or to be sent. Just now we have been working on the premise that the enemies have been using a transfer gate at a certain location and sent their combat strength from another base, but it is not limited to that. Perhaps we could activate the transfer gate and send the orcs’ combat strength to another unknown place, that was what Shiki-san had considered.」
Other than that, I need explain a bit more in depth.
Perhaps to the orcs, this mountain that appeared, is something that is out of their expectations.
Maybe they are moving in order to escape from this mountain.
For example, to open the transfer gate, they need to offer up sacrifices, so that is why they kidnapped the schoolgirls.
But the orcs are a bunch of idiots who do not listen to the General and the Mage’s orders…...
So when the commander achieved his aim, they just occupied the buildings of the middle school and high school as their base and then they stopped their invasive movements.
With this, we will be able to explain the weird actions of the orcs.
Anyway, we saw that the movements of the orcs are too chaotic.
But that is the intel we have gotten from the orcs, we need to further confirm it and find the timing for the ritual…...
Then how did the Giant Wasps appear.
It could be the result of another ritual or maybe they are kept in reserve until now.
「Or perhaps the students are used as a seedbed.」
Mia mumbled.
「As the seedbed for the bugs. It is a common setting in ero games.」
「You really understand the detail, Mia-sensei.」
「You can call me as the All-Knowing.」
Mia puffed out her flat chest.
