Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Predecessors Cut Down the Trees, and the Descendants Were Smashed

85.7 per cent for option two and 14.3 per cent for option three.

……

[Option 2]

【Exchange money to buy scrolls】

……

"It's really worth a lot."

After confirming, Zheng Zhuo said.

"Three skills. Lv.2's [Ice Wind] and [Ice Pick], and Lv.1's [Frost] are instantaneous. But we ...... I don't need it. ”

"Aha! It's a big profit, a big profit! ”

Zhuang Yusheng rubbed his hands. He just waited for this sentence.

……

After making full use of Zheng Zhuo's [Identification], Zhuang Yusheng exchanged the [Winter Ring] for a golden coin. The amount of coins was so large that Zheng Zhuo was worried that he would leave himself like this, roll up his property and run away.

However, it turned out that Zhuang Yusheng was even more greedy than Zheng Zhuo thought. He wanted to eat everything he could.

As a teammate, Zhuang Yusheng is really a bad candidate.

However, for Zheng Zhuo now, the "bad candidate" is precisely the most suitable candidate.

Zheng Zhuo intermittently released [healing] to himself. He slowly recovered, from being able to sit up, to eating and drinking, to moving freely, to removing the bandages. Everything went faster than he imagined.

And the time, as the pastor of the church said, is seven days.

……

[Until the end of the world: 49 days]

"Okay."

Zheng Zhuo straightened up. The bandage fell to the ground with the movement of his hand.

He straightened up and moved his shoulders.

Has fully recovered. The magic of [Dungeon World] is truly incredible—in reality, it is simply impossible for a wound of this magnitude to heal at this rate.

(It's not so much a miracle that there are no infections and complications.) In reality, it is a question of whether or not you can survive...... )”

Zheng Zhuo has escaped from the brink of death many times. He began to worry about whether he would get used to it: it was not a good sign.

Regardless of whether it will have adverse effects after returning to reality. Just the three worlds he experienced [Small Town World], [Ocean World] and [Dungeon World] had completely different attitudes towards "injury" and "death".

"The outlook on life and values have been blown away......"

Zheng Zhuo sighed as he began to pack up his things.

That's when it happened.

He noticed the cylindrical paper tube leaning against his coat.

"Paper tube?"

By the way, this is what he dragged down the side of the crossbody bag with the [Mage's Hand] when he first climbed on top of the giant mushroom man's head.

Zheng Zhuo opened the paper tube. Inside was found to be a silver sentry. The body of the whistle is streamlined and mimics the shape of a fish.

"What is this?"

Zheng Zhuo opened [Identification].

……

【Flying Whistle】

Flying props.

After throwing, fly 30 meters in the air and make a loud whistle. Can attract creatures within a radius of 300 meters.

……

This is a very useful prop!

Perhaps, the original owner prepared this to deal with the kobold settlement on the third floor of the dungeon. It's just that before I reached the third floor, I lost my belongings on the second floor.

Zheng Zhuo left the room and showed the [Flying Whistle] to Zhuang Yusheng, who was fondly stroking the big bag of gold coins.

"Oh!"

Zhuang Yusheng is also a bright eye. But......

His follow-up reaction was not as exciting as Zheng Zhuo thought.

"[Flying whistle] is good. However, this is a one-off. He twisted the tail of the take-off whistle and showed Zheng Zhuo the cavity on the back, "Look, it only has one buckle here." The whistle is made by passing through the cavity through the loop, and there is only one loop, that is, it can only sound once. Suction radius 300 meters...... It's okay, but as far as I can remember, kobold settlements are long and narrow, maybe several kilometers. ”

"It's only 300 meters, which isn't enough. It is also a [explosive bomb] with a large sound range, a long launch distance, and a destructive effect. But having [Flying Whistle] is better than nothing. ”

Zhuang Yusheng came to such a conclusion.

"What? Looking at you like this, do you want to buy a scroll with money? ”

"It's better to buy a scroll than to buy a [bomb]." Zheng Zhuo said, "Our ultimate goal is to take the sapphire from the blue dragon. Spells work better at that point than if they had used a missing one-time bomb. ”

"It's okay for me." Zhuang Yusheng raised his eyebrows, "This saves money." I bought too much last time, and the price of local [Bombs] has started to increase due to scarcity. ”

"How much did you buy last time?"

"For 50 gold coins...... About 1,000 pieces. ”

……

At that time, Zhuang Yusheng just said it casually, and Zheng Zhuo listened to it casually, but did not take it to heart.

When they walked through the rest of the Poison Swamp the next day and arrived at the entrance of the third floor, they realized the impact of 1,000 [explosive bombs].

“…… How did you drop the Bomb into the Kobold camp before? ”

Looking at the ten-meter-high gate in front of him, which was tightly stuffed into the passage and made of a combination of impermeable iron sheets and copper plates, Zheng Zhuo asked.

"I didn't have this stuff when I came here before!" Zhuang Yusheng looked at the spikes on the iron sheet, and his heart was stunned, "Before, this was a small fence gate!" I'm just throwing the bomb from above! ”

Zheng Zhuo pressed against his forehead.

He had wanted to see what was actually going on in the kobold camp before deciding what kind of scroll to buy.

But now it seems that his first choice will be magic that can smash the door.

After that......

He wasn't sure if he would be able to make it back safe and sound after smashing the door. So, he had to guess how to buy the other scrolls first.

According to Zhuang Yusheng, there are many guard towers in the kobold camp. When he himself fell into this world, he had seen barracks full of spikes.

At that time, he also saw many stealth creatures who were enslaved by kobolds. Those creatures can silently approach enemies from underground.

So, Zheng Zhuo now needs three kinds of magic.

First, the magic that can break the kobolds' camp gates.

Second, the magic that can attract the attention of kobolds.

Third, magic that can dispel or defeat submariners.

It can be magic that can be done on its own, or it can be magic that works with Fireball, Mage's Hand, and Heal.

Returning from the junction of the second and third floors of the dungeon, Zheng Zhuo plunged headlong into the bazaar.

With a limited budget, he picked out a number of pending products.

……
