Episode 65. Woohyooooo….

Undead.

A strange being that is created when a corpse is revived by the strange power that remains in this world.

-uuu.

-Oooooh… ….

It is unknown why the follower of the monarch who leads such monsters came here, but what is important right now is to get out of this situation, not their intentions.

Luckily, the caster himself does not seem to be present, but even if they do not listen to their commands, undead are beings who are faithful to their instincts and are obsessed with eating the living.

What will continue from now on will be a melee with dozens of undead here coming to eat me.

-Ooh, oh…….

Is it possible?

Can I defeat this number of undead with just the weapon I have in my hand?

-Woohyooooo… ….

No, it’s not enough to take them all down, but it’s just enough to open them with a bow.

As I tensed and aimed my spear at the undead from the wall, I suddenly realized that they had stopped in their tracks and were staring at me.

He looks at me with wide eyes, and opens his mouth blankly…….

-Ooh, ooh…….

When I raised my spear out of caution at that sight, they immediately tilted their heads when they saw me and started making blank voices.

With a hideous mouth covered in blood, eating several people.

-Woah, Hyo…… ?

I want you to call it a word so clear that you can’t just think of it as a groan coming from a corpse.

-Woohyo, Woohyooo…….

-uuu… ….

… What are these guys?

Why are you suddenly calling my name?

-Woohyooooo…..?

-Oh, wow, wow…

For a moment, I thought they had made a mistake, but when I listened again, it was clearly my name that came out of their mouths.

For some reason, he only says Uhyo and leaves out the last name, but that may be because his tongue and jaw joints are not normal.

Yes, since they are the type of people who first think about eating when they meet someone, standing there and saying something cannot be considered normal.

So what these guys are saying is definitely my name…

-Woohyooooo!!!

-Woohyooooo!!!

… But still, isn’t it a bit strange?

No matter how many undead people are swarming around and screaming, why are they suddenly flocking in and calling my name and causing an uproar?

-Wooow~

And why are you doing this again, egowefun?

If you think this situation is dangerous, you can just rush out like before, but why are you singing along with them at this time?

-Woo Hyo Oh~ Woo Hyo Oh~

-Oooooh~

However, no matter how much time passes, an atmosphere of hostility towards each other does not form.

As I watched Ego Weapon just quietly cry, I even thought that it was stupid to be nervous about them before.

I don’t know why, but at least based on the immediate atmosphere, I didn’t think these guys would attack me.

“Uh, um… If you don’t plan on attacking me, can I just pass by?”

-Woohyooooo……

The undead just stand there blankly without attacking them, even when they ask questions.

Still, just in case, I gently pushed them against the window and opened the gap between them, and their legs ended up being pushed out of their seats to open the way.

Even if you touch it directly and stimulate it, there is no reaction.

After carefully removing them one by one, I stepped into the passage I came from and turned around, and as soon as I walked away, I saw them looking back at them and crying.

-Ooh, ooh ooh…….

-Wooooo~ Woohyooooo~

“…It’s my name, but looking at it like that, it looks like I’m watching some kind of voodoo ritual.”

A moment when I somehow survived, but felt uncomfortable in many ways.

But seeing that the weapon in my hand was still buzzing, I could understand why the undead reacted like that before me.

Anyway, I heard that Ego Weapon, who had no ego, was quickly awakened by my abilities.

Similarly, the undead who are only crazy about their instincts may have become unable to ignore my existence through the power of forcibly imprinting my name.

Of course, thinking about the times I faced a death knight in the past, I don’t think my power would work on a 4th knight level.

“Anyway, it would be hard to think that this would work even on a boss level.”

After leaving the scene, I took some time to review the current situation as I prepared to return to where the party was.

Currently, this dungeon is inhabited by a being with enough power to distort Airi’s prophecy.

Even if it is not the Corpse Lord himself whose danger is comparable to that of the Demon King, it would be unreasonable to expect favor from any of the Four Knights who are his followers.

The only possibility is that it would be the death knight I met before, but he also saved my life with the expectation that he would someday become a companion, so it would be best to be careful when meeting him.

So, if possible, you should leave this dungeon as soon as you join the party, but as I was planning it, I soon saw dozens of undead gathered together and lined up in front of me.

-Ugh.

-Kooooo… ….

This is not some ordinary undead.

Although their armor has signs of wear, they are what can be called elites, each and every one of them properly armed.

It was clearly not a zombie adventurer, but a troop brought in from outside, which also meant that one of the four knights had entered the room the party entered.

“Damn it, we’re already here.”

Airi’s prophecy has also collapsed, and all we have is an ego weapon made of mithril.

If you think about it calmly, the right answer would be to abandon the party here and run away to protect yourself alone.

The party members who entered this limbo with me.

And that child, who was labeled a culled hero because of me, should run away and ignore dying miserably to the undead like the murderer who was eaten before…….

-Paddeuk.

The moment I think about that, the strength that comes to my chin is overwhelming.

Even though he thought that the right thing to do was to step down if he was not qualified, my steps were moving towards the place where the party and the 4 knights were confronting each other.

There was no way there was a choice in the first place.

To get out of the dungeon, you need to find a way and find food, but the map drawn so far and the bag containing food are all located where the party is.

Furthermore, since we do not know what dangers may arise in the future, the cooperation of a hero or something like that is absolutely necessary.

-… Uh, wow?

I made up my mind to move forward, looking at the undead that faced me, and I spoke quietly while aiming the tip of my spear.

“It’s not Woohyo, it’s Woo Hyosung, you guys.”

Please, I hope this damn ability will help you survive from the monsters that have come back from the dead.

****

There is no safe zone for humans within a dungeon.

However, Henrietta, the wizard who currently follows the Dota Hero, did not feel any particular sense of crisis as she was currently exploring such a dangerous place.

Unlike other times, at this party there was one ‘competent guru’ who listened to what he said unconditionally.

“Thank you for your hard work. “Thanks to the hero blocking all the passages in this area, we were able to search the entire area with peace of mind!”

“Well, that’s a good thing… …. Ah, ha.”

Currently, all passages connected to the area are blocked due to surrounding structures being built up.

Henrietta approached the hero who had worked hard to build her barricade and gave him her bottle of water with a smile.

A water bottle not for rest, but to replenish stamina needed for future work.

“By the way, warrior. “I guess this area is bigger than I thought, so could you help us with the search?”

“Do you mean search?”

“Yes, I know it’s hard to deal with monsters while they’re on alert, but we can only investigate one at a time, right? But I think we can investigate one section at a time if we use the hero’s power~”

“Ah, yes. I will do it. Little bit more… ….”

Lee Garam, a brave warrior, spreads his trembling legs and moves forward to investigate the room again.

As Henrietta, who was watching the scene, burst into laughter, the avant-garde and the monks belonging to the same party began to approach her.

“Magic specifications. “Isn’t that too severe anyway?”

“Yes, even if you are a hero, your stamina is not infinite.”

“hahahaha~ I blocked off everything around me, so what danger is there right now?”

Henrietta bursts out laughing and touches only the cane she holds in her hand.

The eyes staring at the tattered steps of the warrior Dotae did not show even a trace of restraint in his actions.

“I said it before, but you have nothing to be embarrassed about? On the contrary, if we don’t make their position known like this from the beginning, they will definitely ignore and oppress us like the other warriors did.”

“… Okay, well, let’s just watch for now.”

“Yes, for now.”

They don’t participate directly, but they also hate the race of warriors.

Even if they were eliminated, that girl would definitely treat them no differently than the warriors who persecuted them.

Henrietta, who was so confident, smiled wryly and took the time to clean the wand she held in her hand.

‘hehehe, I never thought the day would come when I’d see that damn character-breaker lowering his head after hearing what I said. It would be nice if I could continue to suck like this from now on~’

I just trust in the strength of the barricade the hero has erected.

I was just thinking about how I would roast that hero from now on.

-Grumbling.

However, an unexplored dungeon is an unknown space that has not yet been touched by humans.

If you rely on just one hero who listens to you, there is a possibility that dangers that are incomparable to attacks by murderers may arise.

In addition to the monster beyond recognition that exists inside, there is also the intrusion of non-human, transcendent beings from the outside.

-Quaaang!!

The moment when such a being broke the barricade and entered the scene.

The complexions of the party members staring there began to turn pale.

“What, is it an attack!?”

“This is ridiculous! Ugh, why are the undead here!!”

A group of undead begin to enter through cracks in the barricade. And one giant undead created by combining them.

Henrietta, who realized that it was not even the corpse of a giant, but a ‘rag golem’ created by tying together dozens of people, quickly began to run towards Garam, expressing her astonishment.

“Hey, warrior! It’s an attack! Undead attack…….”

“S-sorry. My strength is running out now….”

“You damned useless hero!”

Maybe it would be better if I took a little rest, but I’ve spent too much effort in a short period of time trying to please someone.

However, Henrietta had neither the time nor the heart left to show consideration for such a girl.

“Profit! Everyone, get ready! We have to defend this area until the two people who went out to scout come back……. For a moment! “Where are you going!”

“Shut up! How are we supposed to deal with that number with this number of people?”

-Paz, that is, puff!

Henrietta uses magic to deal with the undead that are rushing in.

Henrietta passed them by as they lost strength and fell down after being burned by the flames and electric current, and then ran towards the exit that she had opened with her own hands, smiling proudly.

At this moment, I took advantage of the attention of the undead on my colleagues to escape through the crack in the barricade even if I was alone.

“hahahaha! Yeah, yeah! Even though the corpses do not have the strength of a warrior, there is no problem……. hehehehe!!!”

However, even such an attempt to escape was blocked by the suddenly appearing undead.

Henrietta was surprised by the figure that appeared from the darkness and grabbed her head, so she used her magic, but instead of burning the corpse hit by her fireball for a long time, it only stood there and strengthened the hand holding her neck even more. .

“W-what are these undead! Don’t let go of my neck right now… …. Kehak!”

“Are you trying to run away, abandoning her companion?”

Yes, they are not ordinary undead.

That was a fact that could be felt not only by the tenacity that was enough to receive my magic with his body, but also by the thirst that came over him from the hand that grabbed his neck at this moment.

“Ah, ah, ya, ah… Now, let’s sleep…”

By the time you notice it, the moisture and nutrients from your body are already being sucked out, starting with the neck where your hand is being held.

As even her outstretched hand for resistance dried up in real time, the empty hole beneath her hood, visible beyond her, began to point towards her.

“That was a really bad idea. I will make you a graduate student!!!”

-Quad!

The sound of everything existing in the body being sucked in in an instant, bones and skin sticking together.

Afterwards, the body, which had become infinitely lighter, fell helplessly to the floor, and fear appeared on the faces of the party members who were watching the scene.

“What, what? Well, that….”

“I suddenly felt dry… …. “Huh!”

But even that is just the beginning.

The ominous power that permeates the place where nutrients have been deprived soon awakens the instinct based on the lingering regrets remaining in the body.

A strong obsession with living beings driven by the instinct for survival, which all living things consider to be more important than anything else.

“Uh, huh. Ugh… ….”

A being who accepted the undead who were revived with such a dry body as a servant.

He opened his mouth as he approached the adventurers who were scared and surrounded by the undead.

“They are alive over there. “It’s fate that we met like this, so let me make a suggestion.”

A harsh voice flowing from beneath a black hood.

From Noble mtl dot com

A dry body where bones and skin stick together, making even decay meaningless.

The ghost in the black hood, which itself seemed to symbolize hunger and hunger, opened its empty mouth and spoke of its purpose to them.

“The world is wide, but human lifespan is too short to get to know this world…”

“So, wouldn’t you, like me, become a dead person and participate in infinitely learning about the world?”
