Pick Me Up! Chapter 20

20. Mission Type, Survival (3)

[‘Gide(★)’ is bleeding. Stamina decreases for a certain period of time.]

“rotation!”

“Gide, hold on a minute!”

“I said shift! Never mind that guy! Stop the goblins!”

“but…….”

The passage on my left is blocked.

A goblin’s corpse is building a wall. It will be fine for a while.

“Jenna, stop the bleeding on Gide’s wound.”

“What about the goblins?”

“I will block them.”

ran into the clearing

The guy next to me was about to jump off the roof. When he lifted it up and cut it, the severed head fell.

Jenna tore the sleeve of her dress with a dagger and wrapped it around Gide’s wound.

“Hands, hands!”

[‘Gide(★)’ falls into fear! All stats are reduced by 30%.]

“Don’t be rude! I’ll be fine when I go back!”

“Keep, turn it off!”

“Bugs!”

I kicked Gide.

“Wake up, you will be! Are you going to keep up with us? The cut is left hand. Wielding the sword with your right hand!”

“I’m sorry…”

“Stop the bleeding and get things right as soon as possible. If you don’t change, Hanson will die.”

“yes yes!”

“Jenna, come back as soon as you confirm that the blood has stopped.”

“Okay!”

Before you know it, three goblins who have climbed over the wall are wandering around in the clearing.

I ran straight ahead and swung my sword long. The upper bodies of the two goblins swept away by the radius fell at an angle. The other hit the head with the edge of the shield.

On the left, a wall of corpses is collapsing.

There were even those who climbed on corpses.

“…”

There is no room for cursing. I put my sword in the face of the goblin as it jumped into the clearing. The goblin became her skewer as it was in its jumping stance. On the other side, two goblins were climbing over the wall again.

Unfavorable with a sword. The distance to run is too far. But it doesn’t stop. It’s even more of a headache the day they go to Aaron or Hanson. As he ran, he decapitated two of them. This time, three of them appeared in different places.

“Are you done yet?”

“It’s done!”

“Kiaaaaa!”

Corpses in the aisle to the left fell and goblins began pouring out.

“I’m coming back. Take care of those guys!”

“yes!”

Jenna jumped up and immediately pulled the protest. The three goblins collapsed side by side in a triple fire like lightning.

Coincidentally, the goblins who broke through the barricade were pushing out from the left.

“Get back in, boys!”

I kicked the goblin in front with all my might. The goblin collapsed and fell like dominoes with the guys behind him. She stabbed her sword without hesitation.

Too much time was wasted covering the empty lot. On the contrary, the left side became the most dangerous. The goblin’s dagger leaked through the cracks in the corpse and scratched the elbow of the leather armor. If the dagger was just a little sharper, it would have cut through the bones. I cut off his wrist.

If someone gets up, kick them. do not allow progress Push with the shield and pierce the sword. I pierced one guy’s chest and pushed it as it was. The ranks of dozens of goblins were pushed back one after another.

“I can’t hear the sword!”

Hanson let out an urgent cry.

“Gide, can you change?”

“Gwa, that’s okay! We can fight!”

“Switch. Hanson, get out and examine the sword!”

[14:35]

Hanson withdrew into the clearing and wiped the blood-stained blade with the sleeve of his clothes. Soon his true identity was revealed. Hanson let out a deep moan.

The days were running out. It was an expected result. It’s better than an F-grade old iron sword. But anyway, it was an ordinary iron sword.

Neither do I. I was still safe due to the difference in performance, but I felt the blade getting stiff.

“Even without a blade, I can beat a goblin!”

I hit the goblin with my shield. The goblin with a broken neck drooped.

After a moment of leisure, I looked around the vacant lot. Dozens of goblins are lying in the clearing. For the time being, there didn’t seem to be any intruders.

Aaron is also not well. The barricade collapsed long ago. Gradually the ranks were pushed back. The spear stabbing speed was noticeably slower than the first time. The signs of fatigue were clearly felt in the movements.

“Jenna, switch with Aaron.”

“yes!”

“I’m still…”

“Get out!”

Jenna jumped in with a nimble body and cut the goblin’s throat.

A fountain of blood gushed out. Jenna started swinging her dagger, not caring that her clothes were getting wet.

“Rest when you can. Don’t be stubborn.”

“Ah, I see…”

Aaron slumped against the wall of the clearing and caught his breath. His long spear was stained with blood right up to the handle.

[12:35]

“Three minutes left, hold on for three minutes!”

Was 30 minutes such a long time?

Now gradually I felt tired too. But even I can’t afford to take a shift. I stabbed and stabbed the goblins that were pushed out again.

“Aaron, switch with Jenna!”

Aaron jumped up, grabbed his spear, and ran to the right.

Aaron couldn’t even rest for a minute. Because the goblins started climbing the wall again. Jenna had to drop out to deal with the goblins in the clearing.

“Stop coming up! Annoying!”

Jenna pulled the bowstring with a pickaxe. More than half of the arrows in the quiver are missing. They said they were recovering, but there were many arrows that were broken or damaged in the process of getting stuck.

[11:22]

“Heh, heo, heo, heo, heo!”

Gide caught his breath. Her eyes were sunken.

“Hanson, shift!”

“yes yes!”

Hanson’s complexion, running while holding a sword and shield, is also not good.

“Jenna, shoot the arrow at Hanson.”

“Yes? But…”

Jenna cast her gaze at the quiver on her back.

I know. that there is not much

“Anyway, if there’s a hole in there, search all over. Throw a stone at the goblins!”

“all right!”

ping!

An arrow pierced the goblin’s philtrum. The goblin with its philtrum pierced struggled forward. A knife was in his hand as he struggled.

The knife was lodged in Gide’s lower stomach as he was about to switch off with Hanson.

“…!”

Gide’s pupils dilate.

An inexplicable moan escaped his open mouth.

dump.

Gide fell face down.

Dark red blood gushed out from his abdomen.

[‘Gide(★)’ has fallen into a dying state. Your life is in danger!]

I bit my lip.

It’s not an emergency situation. If any of the three of us fall out, the passage will open immediately.

Hanson swung his sword, not knowing that Gide behind him was dying.

Gide opened his mouth.

Bloody foam flowed out.

“wait!”

Jenna rotated her body and fired four arrows in a row. The arrows hit the goblins crossing the wall from different directions.

With this, the arrows in the quiver ran out.

[08:05]

Jenna ran to Gide.

Gide’s eyes are cloudy. She wouldn’t even know what was already in front of her eyes.

“shit!”

As the sword struck, the goblin’s skull split vertically.

“Ah, uh, uh, ah…”

Even if you have time to do first aid, there is no way.

Pull out the knife stuck in that stomach? Immediately, blood gushed out like a fountain.

I’m sure you know that there’s nothing I can do about it. Jenna lowered her head slowly, then stood up again and grabbed the bow.

[‘Gide(★)’ has returned to the arms of the goddess! His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]

“G-Gide, give me a shift. It only takes 30 seconds… Now, wait a minute.”

Hanson gasped and murmured.

There is no one who will listen to that.

The goblin stabbed the spear. I grabbed the window sill with my side and pulled it out. A long window stuck out. You’ve got a weapon you can use for a while. I grabbed the spear with both hands and stabbed it.

Through the first one, through the second one, through the third, fourth, sixth.

He gave strength to his whole body. The muscles in my ankles and calves were agitated.

pushed it straight A strong repulsive force returned. gritted it It tasted like blood. The goblins in the aisle were gradually pushed back.

I squeezed my strength to the limit and thrust the handle of my long spear into the goblin’s chest.

“Kueeaek!”

At least ten of them would have penetrated.

There was a momentary delay in the goblin’s advance.

ran straight into the clearing.

“Hanson, go to the passage on the left! I’m in charge of this!”

“Brother? Gide…”

“He’s tired and he’s resting. Don’t talk nonsense and go.”

“Oh, I see!”

Hanson gasped and ran to the left.

It seems that Gide’s corpse, which was at his feet, was never found. Now that she’s blocked her way with a goblin skewer, she can rest for 30 seconds to a minute.

I swung the iron sword. Sticky blood and fat stretched out.

[Heroes’ souls awaken in critical situations!]

[Follow me!]

[Skill awakening!]

[‘Han (★)”s ‘Lesser Swordsmanship’ has risen to Lv.5!]

[‘Han(★)”s ‘Pain Resistance’ has risen to Lv.2!]

[‘Han(★)”s ‘calmness’ has gone up two notches! It has risen to Lv.3.]

[Follow me!]

[Skill awakening!]

[‘Jenna(★)”s ‘Lesser Dagger Skill’ has risen to Lv.3!]

[‘Jenna(★)’ has learned the ‘Quick Move’ skill!]

If you wake up, sleep, and die, it’s useless to anyone.

I jumped right in.

The situation in this aisle is instantaneous. They couldn’t come out because they were stuck in a narrow alley, and as soon as their balance was broken, dozens or hundreds of goblins would fill the empty lot.

Hit the head of the goblin in the lead. I kicked her chest hard with my foot, but it doesn’t push me. The goblins behind them were acting as cushions. Then die there. After being kicked several times, he vomited blood and died standing.

[05:21]

Jenna ran across the vacant lot with her dagger.

The arrow fell long ago. The goblins climbed over the wall, which was taller than a person, without getting tired.

“Aagh!”

[‘Hanson (★)’ is suffering from bleeding. Stamina decreases for a certain period of time.]

A scream was heard from the aisle to the left.

Hanson’s right arm is covered in blood. It looked like it had been cut with a knife.

bleeding profusely I couldn’t even cut it cleanly.

‘… … Inability to fight.’

“Gather in the clearing! Away the aisle! Turn your back to the wall!”

Currently, there are four directions of goblin invasion.

Alleys to the left, right and down, respectively. Lastly, it is the stone wall of the vacant lot.

It takes at least four people to stop it.

The remaining combatants are me, Jenna, and Aaron.

“Brother, help me! Help me!”

If I go to the rescue, I will be in danger too.

I headed to the clearing.

Immediately, goblins began pouring in from the passageway below.

“Where and where should we gather?”

Aaron’s behavior was a mess.

The original shape of the leather armor is unrecognizable, and the whole body is covered in blood. Mine won’t be any different either.

“Jenna, Aaron, stick with me.”

[‘Hanson(★)’ has returned to the arms of the goddess! His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]

“Gide and Hanson…”

“If you’re going to mourn, do it after you’re alive!”

The road is open. Goblins poured out like ants in the clearing.

Me, Jenna, and Aaron formed a square with our backs to the northern wall. I’m in the center, Aaron is on the right, and Jenna is on the left.

“Are we going to die here?”

“F*ck the bullshit.”
