Tensei Shitara Slime Datta

Chapter 228: Encroachment of Labyrinth pt2

The control room is located on the lowest floor of the labyrinth. The room, which could be called the center of the labyrinth, was made to organize everything within the labyrinth. A large monitor was installed in the center of the room, showing the appearance of Zero and the opponent in the battle inside the labyrinth. The inside of the control room has been renovated with decorations that have no particular meaning and there are also devices and that keep on flashing. 「It started heh. 」「 Yes. Everything went as planned – 」Ramiris nodded to Benimaru's murmur. Ramiris sat on a luxurious chair made specifically for his personal use, taking a contemplative pose by placing his clasped hand in front of his chin. [1] Benimaru stood on his right side, staring at the screen sharply. Although the two people were talking as if their atmosphere was serious ...... 「Don't mess around, do your job! Your Shuna hit Benimaru on the head with a folded fan in her hand. "Ouch! Hey, it hurts to fold! Don't you have the gentleness for your beloved older brother?? 」「 None. Such a thing is not important, please take your work seriously! 」Shuna cut it in one blow. There were others who supported Shuna with their words. That man is Beretta. 「Why are you joking, Ramiris-sama ..... If you don't stop, I will report this to Rimuru-sama, you know?」 「Wai! You, what are you talking about! I'm serious ~! 」Ramiris panicked after hearing tsukkomi Beretta. He stopped performing his competitive behavior and began to explain in panic. 「You too, Benimaru. This is not the time to play around, a very serious crisis is getting closer, becoming more aware ...... 」Dimarahi by Souei, Benimaru nodded gently. Although he and Ramiris enjoyed themselves with the atmosphere. (It's because these people don't mess around ....) (Hey. I was just playing around a little, I hope Rimuru is not mad at me...) Their gazes intersected, Benimaru and Ramiris communicating their inner feelings. However, they were able to read the atmosphere and they decided to stop playing again. In fact, the situation is not satisfactory. The floor that had been attacked so far by the enemy was displayed on the big screen. According to the display, the enemy was fighting the current 50th floor boss. With terrifying speed, the enemy broke all the past records. In such a critical situation, Benimaru and Ramiris still had time for their behavior. What is not surprising ... Just a moment ago, an order from Rimuru had reached Benimaru. Rimuru conveys the enemy's predicted objectives and countermeasures. As for defending the labyrinth, Benimaru and the others [2] were not needed. For this matter, Ramiris and Zegion agreed, intercepting the intruder itself was unanimously decided. Benimaru presents everyone's intentions to Rimuru who is still anxious about the labyrinth's war potential. And then, from Rimuru, 'Defend the labyrinth to the end!' such orders are accepted. Benimaru was still recovering from the fatigue after fighting Kazaream, but no one was worried about that.

After all, it was because of the thick density of magic essence within the labyrinth that surpassed the comparison from the outside. Clearly, he could feel that his energy was starting to recover. Moreover, perhaps because he released magic essence to the limit once, he had a premonition that he could take the energy of 『Turn Null』 while becoming more accustomed to it. Filling and mixing it while emptying the container bit by bit, in the sense of filling the magic essence at the same time. (Huffs! Like this, I think I can control this energy!) The top group of the labyrinth's defensive war potential is still alive, in the worst case; Benimaru may also need to leave. Predictions of enemy actions can be made, and the potential for war is still alive. There is no uncomfortable factor. 「Good. Then, should we work seriously now? Ramiris-sama, what percentage of the labyrinth has been eroded by that man at the moment? 」..... Right ..... at the moment, 15% I think. There's more left! 」「 Understood. So, when Gozurl and Mezurl on the 50th floor were defeated, did we start the strategy? 」「 Alright. Since my preparation will be done with a little more, it will be a good time. 」「 Then, we will start. 」After the exchange, Benimaru began issuing instructions regarding a special strategy. Ramiris also continued his work. The defeated Gozurl and Mezurl were easily revived at the very bottom floor. And then they came to the control room in shame. "Great work! Yes, please rest in peace. 」「 We are very sorry, we have no reason to offer, Benimaru-sama. We want to slightly exhaust the enemy ..... 」「 We do not even become a hindrance to the man ..... 」「 Do not care about it. You are not weak, only they are strong. Be relieved because everything is as planned. 」Gozurl and Mezurl hanging their heads in front of Benimaru seemed a little relieved when they heard those words. With a meek face, they sat on the chair provided. At the same time―― then Alright. As planned, the strategy will begin! Everyone, in your position !! This strategy will begin now. And then, at the time of taking the Demon Golem (Demon Lord Protector Colossus), the strategy would move on to the second stage. Everything was as planned. Everyone, get your own work done without any rush! Leave the rest to the combat group !! 」Benimaru. Tension spreads to the subordinates of Ramiris, the Dragon King and the operator, the dryads with the Trainees as their leader. 「Alright, Ramiris-sama. I'll go too. 」Beretta respectfully told Ramiris. "Good! You can lose, but death is not allowed! 」「 Fufufu, a joke. If I lose many times, then I will be labeled as a loser. I will definitely win this time. 」Leaving those words, Beretta immediately teleported. Then, he was already standing by Zegion's side. So, the battle inside the labyrinth slowly increased ……

−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−− The floor keeper 60 is Demon Golem. It received the order to eliminate the intruder, showing tremendous destructive power, it was a violent machine. Modified by Gadra-roushi, it is equipped with various weapons; its cruelty is like never before. However, in front of Dino and his partner, even with his strength, stalling the enemy did not come true. 「Yes, this is very troublesome ...... this object is very strong .....」 「From that, why not vanish as light particles? It is possible ...... this golem will not come back to life, right …. . ? 」「 I don't think so. Oh well, even if it happens, it's not a threat. But if this about it is troublesome, I agree. 」Against Dino's grunts, Pico and Garasha responded respectively. Granted, Dino thought that it made no sense for the Golem which was an artificial object to be revived, but given Ramiris' evil smile, there was a unease that made Dino unable to deny it. (If that person, it might just be ...) It wasn't Ramiris who had the power to be a threat, but it couldn't be said with anyone else in the labyrinth. Not to mention, their level of threat was beyond imagination with immortality given within Ramiris-controlled territory. In addition, Ramiris' ability is absurd, it is not strange if he is able to exert an effect even to artificial beings. From Dino's point of view, Ramiris'『Labyrinth Creation』 is a threat. 「However, the enemy suddenly left. From the 61st floor, I'm sure ghost-type enemies will come out crowding, right? ""That's true . I see low-class ghosts, but they are just small fry ..... If so, the upper floors are more troublesome, right? 」As Pico and Garasha had said, they were unable to see the appearance of the enemy after defeating the Demon. Golem and go down to the floor below. But, Zero knew the reason. That was because Adalman and his partner went out to intercept Dagruel, which Zero witnessed on his own. Since there was no reason to say so, Zero remained silent. 「Oh well, maybe because of that. Maybe, they went to intercept Dagruel, I guess. 」Dino carelessly said the right answer. Zero heard it, he thought that he needed to slightly increase his evaluation of Dino. Zero thinks that Dino is a fool, but he is surprised because of Dino's sharpness in situational awareness. 「Eh, does that mean all the monsters from here are outside? Can you do something like that? 」「 From it ..... Using monsters living inside the labyrinth as troops ..... Honesty, isn't that a cheating game? 」「 I don't know, don't tell me that. Say your complaint to Rimuru! 」Because the enemy won't come out, Dino and co have free time to have a talkative quarrel. The indifferent Zero watched them, opening his mouth. 「You guys, listen. I will return to the 60th floor, I will concentrate in my work to steal the authority of this labyrinth. Even now I have eroded the labyrinth as we traveled, but only about 15% was taken by me and it did not advance. However, I managed to load the transfer function. Above the 60th floor has become my area. However, it takes time to scrape the 61st floor and below. As with what happened, it will not develop properly. I leave the rest to you, rampage as much as possible and give me time. 」

There is no way not to be exposed, and to be honest, it is troublesome. With this and that, Dino and co arrived at the 70th floor. However, the place was naturally empty ..... 「As expected, Adalman had gone to the battlefield. It would be troublesome if that guy stays here, aren't we lucky? 」Dino thinks positively. Pico and Garasha also agreed and then they continued. However, even below the 71st floor, no enemies had appeared. 「Isn't this weird? This place is supposed to be a paradise of insect-type monsters ............ When Dino says his doubts— ―― Hoohohohoho! You're coming, Dino. You have betrayed me not long ago, I will make you regret it now !! 』Ramiris laughter echoed around him, suddenly, the structure of the floor changed. And then 4 shadows appeared. Gabil, Gerudo, Beretta and later Zegion. Those 4 are the ones who seem to meet Dino and Co. Ch Cih's. They came out as expected heh―― 」Dino looked up and saw Zegion. 『Eh? Dino, you're only three people? 』Ramiris asked Dino. In Dino's eyes staring at Ramiris waiting for an answer, he saw Ramiris projected with stereoscopic imaging. (He did such complicated actions for strange things ....) 'Oh well whatever' so he sighed, 「One person is late because of his business. 」So, Dino replied nonchalantly. In addition, 『Hmm. 』Dan nodded, Ramiris dropped the bomb statement. 『Alright, Dino's opponents are Zegion and Beretta heh ~』 So. 'What did he say?' Dino failed to understand. But, when his words reached his brain, he understood the meaning. 「Do not joke, idiot !! Fuck I can win !! 」Dino's screams that understood the meaning of Ramiris' words echoed inside the labyrinth. [1] For those who are unaware of what Ramiris is doing, he is performing the Gendo Pose. [2] Intended for those who went outside Tempest and were absent and defended Tempest from the start like Gabil and Gerudo.
