Dicuo, the mechanic from heaven

The girl looked at the lush forest outside the city and made a bold decision! !

That is.

"El, let's go! How about I teach you how to hunt now!!"

"what?"

"This is the archery of the gods! Hmm, to repay you for taking care of me during this time, it's not impossible for me to make an exception and teach you."

Artemis said this with a bit of arrogance, which made Al a little uncomfortable.

After all, it is.

Although the girl's character is rigorous and serious, she seems to feel awkward in some sense when facing boys.

"Let's go! Hurry up!!"

This is the period of time when we became completely familiar with each other.

The young goddess didn't hesitate, she grabbed her sleeve and ran out.

quickly.

Then we arrived outside Rivera.

"Hmm... There is indeed a demonic presence here..."

Quietly, crawling on the ground.

Artemis's professionalism made Al respect her.

Said it before.

Although the 18th floor is a safe floor and no monsters will spawn, monsters from other floors will still occasionally come here.

Some were scattered, hiding in the forests outside the town.

Yes... it's quite "daily" for a large number of monsters to suddenly appear and destroy a town.

Otherwise, why would it be rebuilt more than 300 times?

"Wait a minute, what is this?"

"Wild fruit."

Artemis answered Al's question.

At this moment, the boy was walking quietly in the dense forest twice. Suddenly, he found some small red fruits around him, like small gourds.

“It’s edible, I think.”

"Yeah... there are some over there too."

“It’s a little sweet.”

As El ate the small wild fruit, he thought of what Miss Aina, the guild advisor, had said before.

In the dungeon.

If you run out of food, you can try to "use local materials". Wild fruits are the best, and they are also part of the "dungeon". They will automatically refresh after picking them.

Therefore, remembering where it grows is also very important "common sense" for adventurers.

And if you can't find any wild fruit...

In extreme cases, you can only eat the flesh of monsters.

Theoretically, many monsters can be eaten, but they will make people feel a certain instinctive disgust, which is similar to a psychological effect, so it is best not to eat them.

After all, compared to physical pain, mental problems are the most troublesome - because they cannot be cured by healing magic or spirits alone.

"Oh oh oh!"

“This seems to be…”

"It's crystal candy!"

It seems Artemis has found something quite remarkable!

Among the lush grass at my feet, among the small crystals reflecting the brilliance above my head, there grew teardrop-shaped fruits.

This is a "rare material" unique to the 18th floor.

Or "rare fruit".

Just a small piece of crystal candy can be sold for more than 10,000 faris in Orario, making it a luxury snack for nobles and gods.

although.

Demeter often buys it to eat at home.

Both El and Artemis have tried it. It is quite refreshing, like a mint candy, and it is a sweet hard candy.

“I’m rich!!”

A certain beautiful girl god, who had completely transformed into a little money-grubber, quickly and skillfully lay on the ground and began to pick the fruits.

all of a sudden.

I got dozens of crystal candies.

"Ah! Why didn't I realize this sooner? It's so easy to make money here!!"

This is much more profitable than picking up magic stones! !

Obviously, Artemis, who was burdened with heavy debts, now fully understood the hard work and difficulty of making money.

By the way, the girl’s monthly debt is about to expire.

Even though he had been picking up magic stones with me for such a long time, it was true that he definitely couldn't collect 10 million or something.

Actually.

The gap is still a bit large.

Artemis planned to ask Demeter for help, at least to get a postponement or something, but she couldn't let the clan's residence be confiscated.

As for why not look for Al?

When Artemis found out that the boy still owed Demeter at least a billion dollars in debt.

I have complete respect for Al.

I'm afraid so.

A lifetime is never going to be over...

64

Chapter 64: Al: I like this better...

Artemis now feels that she and Al are "brothers in distress" in a sense.

She didn't even dare to think about it.

What would it be like if I owed Demeter a billion faris or something?

I'm afraid it will take hundreds or even thousands of years...Artemis's family will have to work for a certain beautiful female god from generation to generation!

Ahhhhhhhhhh! !

That’s too tragic!!!

Patting the boy's shoulder with great sympathy, Artemis even felt that El was a little too strong.

"Be careful, there are traces of monsters living here. Look at this, these are footprints, and the air is also filled with the scent of that creature... Ah... Found it!"

I've finished picking up the crystal candies.

Artemis still did not forget her "original intention" and soon took Al to find a tapir wandering in the woods.

This is a very common monster in the "Big Tree Maze" located after the 19th floor. It can be regarded as a faster Minotaur.

The young goddess quietly took out the longbow on her back.

Subsequently.

Holding the arrow, bending the bow to full moon, and attacking instantly!

"call out"!!

There was a violent sound of breaking wind. Just one arrow pierced through the huge tapir bear, smashing most of its head and killing it on the spot.

"How about it, it's awesome!"

Artemis felt a little proud.

Although I have seen El's fighting style before, I know that the boy has quite a lot of "long-range weapons" called firearms.

But obviously, the power of those things was still a little lacking in Artemis's opinion.

Ok……

Especially when she saw Al holding that Gatling machine gun, but it took several bullets to kill a Minotaur, Artemis felt that it was indeed not as good as a bow and arrow.

There are also crossbows and other things that Al often uses.

The young goddess doesn't know anything about guns, but she knows about crossbows.

The advantage of this kind of thing without a "soul" is that it does not require training and can be used by both the elderly and children. It is like a magic sword, but its power is fixed.

It is far inferior to the bow and arrow, a "technique" that becomes stronger as one's strength grows!

"This is a divine technique. If used by an adventurer like you, it would be even more powerful..."

Artemis wasn't lying either.

Gods cannot release their divine power at will in the underworld, so their physical fitness is actually far inferior to that of adventurers.

But with skills, the difference in strength can be made up.

Artemis is not the only one who is in charge of "hunting" and has reached the pinnacle of archery.

There are also many gods with the title of "God of War". It is said that their close combat skills are enough to fight with first-level adventurers - well, they can fight, because they don't have enough strength to defeat the opponent, but at least they can at least not lose the upper hand.

Hear this.

Al thought of the god who worked there when he often went to buy potato balls.

Jian Yu Lei.

The other party seemed to be the God of War from the Far East.

Come to think of it, considering that Artemis is also working as a supporter for me, this god with "superb combat skills" is actually quite pitiful...

"So, do you want to learn?!"

"No."

I refused it very decisively.

It’s not that Al has no interest in archery or anything like that, but people’s time is limited, and what he needs is a fighting style that suits him.

and so……

"I prefer this, Lady Artemis."

"Eh?!"

No one knew when, but in Al's hand, a pitch-black "gun" appeared. It was at least three or four meters long and had a very thick barrel.

"what is this?"

Artemis certainly had never seen any anti-tank guns.

I just heard Al say that this thing can also be "long-range", "precise", and "point-to-kill" - in a sense, it is a high-tech "longbow"!

Are you coming?

Mid-gate confrontation!

"what?!"

Just when Artemis was confused.

El directly demonstrated to the young goddess.
