I turned around.- What's going on here?Alex is still standing at the edge of the clearing.- Don't you understand? We're here to retrieve the artifact.- So, how do corporations work?- Corporations? No. Everything is easier and more difficult. Black markets, where you and I sold the loot, do not just exist. Someone has to cover them. It so happened that I have been working with Yuji for a long time. He often brings in new players with whom I start doing dark things. Bandits are also interested in the rift and items from it, you know.The warriors froze around, five of them, all clearly level ten or eleven. Plus an archer to the side. Of course, I have a rebirth, but even with it, it’s not a guarantee that I can handle an experienced group of hunters. They are in no hurry to attack, waiting for Alex's order.I looked over at Alex. We have known him for many years. Before he got married, we even went clubbing together looking for girls for the night. I visited him, was one of the few

"The same ones that attacked me?" I would rip them myself. Everything will work out, because I have an ace up my sleeve.The girl looked at me suspiciously.- Well, what is it?I took out a keg from the magical vault, opened the lid. Since I have given a name to this substance, if someone looks at it, it is immediately highlighted. For the locals, this name means nothing, but Laska's eyes widened.- It's ten kilos. But in terms of power, it surpasses ordinary gunpowder one and a half times. So we actually have fifteen kilograms of gunpowder. Explosives of this level would blow the goblin chief to pieces.- Where did you get it? she whispered.- I'm an alchemist. And I have many secrets. So, can you help me?She thought for a few moments, and then reluctantly said:- The artifact and the problems associated with it do not interest me. But here's a drop from the leader of the goblins and monsters there - I don't mind getting it. But on top of another fifty thousand credits.- Zenami wil
FAULT ; ARTIFACT chapter 80
Six goblins fell to the ground dead, and three more with serious wounds, in the form of broken arms and legs, fell with a squeal and began to crawl away.The rest, seeing the consequences of the attack and the new enemy, stopped abruptly, I jumped out to meet, immediately formed another black ball. The goblins, assessing the consequences, abruptly turned around and rushed, it was, away, but I had already cast a spell. It is clear that they do not shine with special intelligence and did not guess that if they run away, then in different directions. So the black ball hit in the back one of the goblins that were running away in a tight group. There was another distortion of space, torn bodies fell to the ground.Weasel attacked the remaining two. The axes sang a terrible song, and the heads of the goblins fell to the ground. Then came the turn of the wounded.In total we killed fourteen enemies. For each, I got fifty minus five experience (because of the difference in level) and 80 zen.

- Weasel, locomotive! As soon as everyone gathers, lead to the boiler, - I shouted after the girl.A couple of arrows whizzed past my face, I glanced at the archers for a moment, they looked in my direction with hatred. Let them, as long as they are not able to inflict damage on me, then you definitely should not pay attention to them.The girl, meanwhile, ran into a crowd of goblins, seriously wounded several, her legs and arms fell to the sides. Everyone in the camp rushed to Laska. There are about thirty of them. Weasel quickly rushed to the side, dragging the crowd with her. I formed another gravity rupture spell.As soon as the girl ran past a hefty cauldron, he threw a ball at a thick stick, as thick as an arm, to which the cauldron hanging over the fire is attached. There was a crack. In general, the stick was already tense, however, it could withstand the weight of a cauldron of water, but as soon as I broke it well, it could not stand it. With a crunch and a crack, the stick

The girl braked sharply, darted behind a bush, I did not understand what had happened, but she sharply pulled her sleeve. Unable to stay on his feet, he flopped next to her.- What are you...- Quiet!I paused, followed her gaze. Two goblins are walking towards us. In the hands of a torch that creates around them two dim light spots.- Patrolmen? Something new.- Here and goblins stronger. Take a closer look, - whispered Weasel.Indeed, goblins are a head taller than usual, and stronger. Light from torches leaves glare on metal breastplates. Goblins have small maces with sharp spikes on their belts. They both walk slowly, talking about something.Weasel, meanwhile, drew her axes. Monsters are coming our way, and we have nowhere to hide, except behind a bush. There are several steps to the nearest tree. The fact that our movement will be noticed is one hundred percent."Wait," I whispered.A black ball began to form in his hand. The space was drawn towards him. As soon as the goblins w

- Come on, get up! What hung?Glancing up, I saw the girl stick out halfway, her fingers clenched on my wrist. With my other hand, I grabbed her hand, the girl exhaled sharply and pulled it towards herself with force, the wall in front of my eyes ran down, and after a few seconds I found myself on a flat stone surface. I am no longer surprised at the girl’s strength, she has a “duelist” class, so both dexterity and physique are pumped in.- Enough to lie, quickly run, - came the hissing of the girl.Jumping to his feet, he looked around.To the right there is a hubbub, several goblins began to peer into the darkness behind the walls, apparently trying to make out the sentries sent earlier. The entrance to the dungeon is guarded by a goblin, his partner went to see what happened there. And now the guard does not even look in our direction, all his attention is directed to the brethren crowded on the wall.We jumped down into the yard, dashed across the distance to the keep. The guard,

He turned sharply, trying to throw the girl off the back of her neck, but she put one ax into the magical space and clung to the armor. The hobgoblin spun around, tried to grab Weasel with his hand, but nothing happened, she deftly dodged. And then she slashed at the head. Thick skin and bone saved the hobgoblin, and the ax plunged barely a few millimeters into the head. A figure of 80 damage appeared above the goblin, he squealed.I stepped back, breathing heavily. The world shakes before my eyes. Pain ripples from the shoulder. I noticed a message that the hand was critically wounded and now I can’t move it for a hundred seconds.While the hobgoblin squeals and tries to throw Weasel off, I removed almost all the torches from magical space, dumped them in a pile. A strong flame shot up, illuminating the area. A black ball formed in the left hand, to which all space was drawn. The fire from the burning torches piled in a heap reached for the ball. I brought it closer. The flame seemed

- Yes. I have it marked on the map in the same way as the exits controlled by corporations, - I said, then stopped abruptly, looked at the girl. - Weasel.She also stopped and looked at me suspiciously.- What?- Thanks for helping.She looked away.- If you were a complete goat, then for any money I would not climb into that fortress to help you.- Why is this? Although I understand that life is more expensive ...- Tim. I am terminally ill. I have mimicking cancer. So I already have one foot in the grave. That's why I'm not interested in riches and other crap that ordinary people crave. My whole life here, in the rift, is an attempt to collect money in order to give them for treatment and live an extra day. This does not mean that I am ready for anything for the sake of money. But if there is a person who is also on the verge of life and death, instead of thinking about himself, goes and helps others, I cannot leave him alone. The reason why you decided to save those girls... I tota
