After Burkhart-san casted sleeping magic, Elise was next to him continuously casting fatigue reduction magic before I realized it.
If you cast this magic on a sleeping person, their tiredness is removed for a short time. That’s because you won’t get mentally tired in the same way as being awake.
However, there is no way that this doping-like magic is good for your health if you keep fighting for a long time.
It was commonly referred as emergency measure.
“Wendelin-sama” (Elise)
“I am sorry.” (Wendelin)
As she confirmed Burkhart-san’s consciousness dropping, Elise presented the meal to me.
Even though I call it like that, the menu was pseudo-hamburger and chilly water blended with small amounts of sugar and salt.
Around 10 meters in front I could hear the sounds of Erw’s group crossing swords with a golem. It was difficult to even brew tea.
Furthermore I don’t even have such time.
I push the pseudo-hamburger into my mouth and wash it down with the pseudo-water/sports drink within a minute in the same way as I did it in my time as member of the trading company in my previous life.
I want to eat something like warm rice soon.
“Wend!” (Luise)
“Tsk! Has the effect already worn out!?” (Erwin)
I go out at once and cast a barrier spell of the wind system.
This barrier isn’t something that can completely prevent the golem from advancing.
Purposely making a hole in one part, it is allowing the golem to intrude from there little by little.
Narrowing down the number of golems like that, the three vanguards are in turns crushing each of them.
At the beginning I had cast offensive magic at the golems standing in the rear, but since it was futile I already stopped that.
If you want to know why, except for their numbers they also had a terrifying special skill.
『Even if I defeat them and defeat them, there will still golems come out.』 (Wendelin)
『There is a secret workshop producing them in the back.』 (Luise)
『That’s it!』 (Wendelin)
On the first level we ended up wasting quite a lot of time until we actually noticed that.
First off, of the numbers of golems on standby on the level only around a fifth was deployed on the floor.
Even if you defeat them and defeat them, there will appear reinforcements from holes in the floor and through the walls of the floor.
To continue, as there are the remains of crushed golems, there exist golems who collect those periodically.
『They bring those back to repair them?』 (Ina)
『If it’s like that, it will be endless?!』 (Erwin)
Do we have to destroy the artificial personality embedded in the head of the golems? There is an even simpler method. Just like humans, they will cease their activity if they are beheaded.
The artificial personality is equivalent to what is known as brain for humans.
『Erw! It is useless unless you behead them!』 (Ina)
As Ina thrusts her spear, she is pondering about the point of individual golems, who had their crystal containing the artificial personality embedded in the golems head destroyed, not being collected. It seems to be necessary for the repairs that a certain degree of body is left for the artificial personality.
『At the least the head will be collected.』 (Wendelin)
『Uwaa! You raised the hurdle!』 (Erwin)
The battle is continuing with nothing but short naps. Erw’s soul was screaming.
After that, as we collected the crushed golem’s artificial personality, this time we aimed at the stairway leading to the next level. I even collected the other golem remains and tossed them into my magic bag.
It is for the sake of avoiding the nightmare of those remains reviving and swooping down on us at the upper levels.
But thanks to that our speed of progress is also dropping.
In those five days the number of floors we captured is nine.
Gradually the ratio of the horse-riding knight golem is rising as well. All members are close to their limit of fatigue degree, too.
“It will be nice if it ends with this.” (Burkhart)
It was as Burkhart-san said having awoken after about three hours.
The ninth floor has been cleared. I really wish this is the last floor, I thought as I climb the stairway to the upper level.
Thereupon, as for the tenth floor, it wasn’t completely packed with soldier type and horse-riding knight type golems.
“Are? Is this the end?” (Erwin)
Erw had a facial expression as if it was disappointing, but all the other members knew that they didn’t want to know the truth in the end.
Inside the vast floor once again that was enshrined.
Before the forced transfer it was driven into stopping its activity due to running out of mana.
Well, I couldn’t avoid doing that. It was the huge form of a dragon golem.
After getting this worn out, once again deploying something like a dragon golem, the character of the creator of this underground ruin can definitely be called to be warped and poor.
“Perhaps its performance is even higher than the one’s before?” (Erwin)
