I heard why Orion came here.
Lehman Hoffman? To find that gentleman's legacy.
He is the strongest player of the past who solidified the 80-year Hunter era.
I too had heard that name well.
'This is the first time I've heard about the legacy.'
They say it was secretly left in Class X.
Among the 100 strong, it was established as an established theory that it was a treasure that would strengthen the hunter or information that had to be hidden.
'So, what is it here that made the number one jump in?'
I really wonder.
I continued my thoughts as I watched the pouring attacks.
Kukwaaaaang!
A deafening roar of destruction that is incomparable to the initial sound.
The earth and sand rise up as if they were going to pierce the sky.
X-class is X-class.
This is the level of destructive power on the way to the central region.
It's different from Shadow Walker.
A group of earthworms that look like they're shaped like muscles.
The moment when the dense muscle fibers become filled with mana and turn blue.
A torrent of flesh-whip volleys came at me at a speed that my two-handed agility could not even detect. So what?
Oh my god!
The flow of monstrous force that penetrates me shatters the ground.
Fortunately, unlike the entrance, this place is a rocky area.
The ground was made of a material that was strong enough to withstand the attacks of these creatures. Thanks to that, I don't have to crawl out of the hole.
'The conclusion is that even if it's a legacy, it's something I don't need.'
Even if that legacy makes my body strong, my stats are still the same.
If it was information that had to be hidden, it was a problem that the 100th class would have taken care of.
A good, weak citizen like me just had to struggle to survive by doing what I could.
"You guys should disperse too. Huh?"
Chuluruk!
Kwaang! He swings his head with a loud noise.
Sigh. I guess you have no intention of going.
There's nothing I can do. I have to ignore it and run.
"Heh. Heh."
The X-class gate is dirty wide.
It wasn't just empty words, it was really big.
The information that there was another world there was not a lie.
When will the central part come out?
Actually, isn't this the central region?
When I'm tired, all kinds of thoughts come to mind.
Fortunately, the bracelet's effect is that it rapidly restores stamina.
'More than that, when will they fall?'
A bunch of muscle worms that are overwhelmingly stronger than me.
I feel like a piper.
He keeps following me and persistently hits me in the head.
Every time, the floor would crack and bounce back.
Obstructing the view.
'The black mountain in the distance doesn't seem to be close.'
Still far away.
Perhaps the change in surrounding scenery is a blessing.
I looked around.
The result of running without rest.
It was a forest that we arrived at after passing through a solid ground area.
Get lost!
"Huh? Are you going now?"
As soon as you step into the forest, you see earthworm friends spinning around.
No, I wasn't going back.
"what."
They were loitering outside the forest.
He walks around with his head turned towards me, as if he is blocked by an invisible wall.
He acted as if this wasn't his territory anymore.
"Are we past the starting point now?"
So this is the central region?
I turned my eyes away from them.
It is a desolate black forest.
Instead of leaves, there are only dense, dry branches.
The wood was the same color as the ground we had been walking on.
'It looks so damn hard.'
It is a black mountain visible beyond the dense branches.
Still a long way to go.
I measured the time.
'Are there about 6 hours left now?'
First, let's start with the record.
I opened the subspace and approached the paper that had been set up.
I wrote down the terrain and monsters I passed through while drawing mana for a long time.
An act that is almost like engraving a mark on paper.
I hope this will help me reach my goal of 100 strong.
'That way, Heejin and I will be safe.'
Oh my. It's my fate.
How did I come to know about this?
Coincidentally, I also developed the ability to improve the situation.
If this is the case, there is nothing we can do.
In a place where even 100 people are dying, you can only help them die less.
'I deserve to be rewarded handsomely.'
You dare make the Meister move?
I didn't ask for the business trip, but I guess I'll have to accept it.
That should tell you that business trip expenses are quite expensive.
"Phew, that's it."
After finishing the recording, I exited the subspace.
My warehouse closes only then.
It's time to move forward again.
'How do you check for signs of a gate breaker?'
As we move forward, we recall.
Information obtained through the community.
How to check for signs of a breaker.
'Dimensional gems exist."
An indestructible jewel located deep within the gate, at the innermost part.
If it was about to break, it was a sign of the breaker.
'Then, should I just check to see if there are any cracks?'
It's an easy target.
However, getting there is the problem.
'Where on earth is the heart?'
For now, we're just moving forward.
Repeated dashes and rests towards the vaguely visible black mountain.
Here comes another intruder.
Hehe!
Hehe!
It's a new X-class monster.
A nimble monkey-like guy.
The tip of the sharp tail flashes black.
The kid who was far away passed me by in an instant. Wow, that's faster than ever.
Kihihak!
There are more than one or two.
Where on earth do they all appear in such a long line?
Dozens of them rushed in at once.
It's more agile than any monster I've encountered before.
An entity whose destructive power is also concentrated at one point. The forest withstood the blows that struck me.
It must be as hard as the black ground that the trees passed through.
'They're all solid.'
That's why it keeps wags its tail.
That doesn't mean it won't work, you monkey guys.
"I'd rather have an earthworm. Oh, it's so noisy."
With his head nodding.
Resumed advance.
A screeching roar. A loud noise like hitting a tree. And jumping.
How far did you run?
A strange structure appeared before my eyes.
'It's a shack.'
This is a human structure discovered in a place like this.
Something smelled.
It smells like Orion.
Kkihak!
Even the monsters seemed unaware of the hut.
The guy on the other side of the building keeps spinning around. That's right. That's the safe zone.
'Can we finally get away from this annoying noise pollution?'
It is the existence of a cabin where even X-class monsters cannot be seen.
Maybe it's just me who can see it thanks to my insight.
As I approached, a strange sensation ran through my body.
'It's creepy.'
I looked behind me, sweeping my arm.
As expected, the monkey guys were confused.
A bewildered reaction to my sudden disappearance.
Then, like a swarm of earthworms, they started to loiter around the place where I disappeared.
'That's strange.'
This guy and that guy.
When he sees me, he runs to the end.
It's as if this ethereal state is coated with honey.
It's a shame there's no comparison group.
No, even if there was a comparison group, they would die quickly.
'Even if you look at it like that, it's a monster that can kill even 100 people.'
Phew. I took a deep breath and approached the cabin.
A black hut that appears to have been made by cutting down the surrounding trees.
It's a tree that wouldn't budge even if a class X monster ran riot.
'If you can make it with that, you must be incredibly strong.'
If someone is that strong, can we expect anything from them? Maybe Orion is in this cabin?
Squeak.
It was dark inside.
That's understandable, since there's not a single window.
So I squint my eyes and see something.
A silhouette leaning against a corner.
He was clearly a man.
"You, what the hell are you?"
The guy was embarrassed.
Are you scared? He leans even closer to the corner and asks a wary question.
"How do I look now?"
It was good that you prepared in advance.
The flowing low and mid sounds.
Inyoung swallowed dry saliva and opened her mouth.
"A completely blue form. The only visible facial features are white eyes...."
Is it really that scary?
Thank you for answering.
"How did you see through my dimensional distortion and come in?"
So this guy was the one who fooled the eyes of the X-class monsters. He's capable.
So this guy is Orion?
I approached him and asked.
"You are Orion."
"Don't come near me!"
The world is distorted before my eyes.
My outstretched hand got caught in it.
Of course it was fine.
"Huh? Dude, I'm sure it went in properly...."
Finally, I've met someone I can communicate with.
There was no reason to be upset by this level of attack.
A body that is immune to attacks anyway.
He stopped and continued asking questions, telling me not to come closer.
"Are you Orion?"
"I, I am not Orion."
