『哇嘎—————！』180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMIPxsfv3p
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFHRr2M1iG
發出怪異鳴叫聲的東西，以外型來說並不陌生，是島上冒險者皆耳熟能詳的怪物......三眼章魚。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLVpYpxxkA
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwPcWqPnFR
但在安提娜眼前的這隻，卻有讓任何人眉頭一蹙的特點。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxNvSxtPvZ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3UZeOcpBi
首先值得注意的，便是牠異常龐大的身軀——幾乎足以比拼弓箭手村地帶的石巨人。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg5nWiV9yC
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4n5j08J5Pi
而配合放大的身體也同樣伸長無比的觸手，假如讓這些觸手完全打直、支起身體，甚至能夠吞沒一座高樓吧。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ceD1FDdZh
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gHA4VSkH3
眼下這隻怪物，正是有著這樣非凡的體型。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWxsyOmbhO
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRp5QoD7E8
明明任何人都知道，這種怪物極限的大小絕不會超過成人，哪怕是當中的菁英怪，也不可能有這麼誇張的身體。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh0nuZRaGK
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HL1CGbr8n
所以毫無疑問，眼前這隻章魚是「異常的」。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUFpxihGCC
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHI3Ly7QpO
並且，牠還有一些相對無法第一眼就被觀測到，但同樣彰顯出異常與危險的地方；比如觸角上，吸盤所在的位置帶有刀片一般的銳利。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1fC7Fu9gX
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRHrqE6BrS
而這些銳利的鋒面，現在也成了掠奪少女生命力的最大殺手。——少女感覺到死亡的迫近。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PGN6epEfj
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQ1wdt1AeZ
明明瞬間治療傷勢是很容易的事，但安提娜現在根本踩不到地面，動彈不得。而且愈是掙扎想要擺脫控制，反倒讓自己更接近死亡......。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6V4NNyWKH
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2h0VciE7S1
她落下了不甘與懊悔的淚水。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF71Xf0NsT4
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmGPOO51JF
在這竭盡所能的瞬間，她回想這陣子以來的點滴，以及今天會面臨到這種狀況的原因。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmgLnsCKxs

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfWvdHJdc8
當赫莉娜教官決定用上精靈族的神器銀懈之槍後，也代表著必須再回到弓箭手村一趟。好在赫麗娜手上還有回村卷軸，可以省去徒步的時間與精力。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMbxilOxLd
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlZrZCZ1BF
然而⋯⋯勇士之村的情況還不能放任不管，尤其他們又聽聞靠近山腰的地方已經產生破口，場面非常混亂。但以安提娜等人的技術，對付一大群變異肥肥還是太危險。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg04Mfp9ZnH
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YJgbwvS1n
於是，赫麗娜便決定讓他們去完成這個重責大任。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKUCyIXryh
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBftqRtI4m
並且在取得銀懈之槍後，先前往災情相對可以控制的墮落城市。那裡有著兩大盜賊團，而且其中一個組織的領導者，還是島上的冒險者大師之一，達克魯。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LaEH50zCO
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOdc4Qpywa
然而這個看似比較權宜的結果，卻有意料之外的變局。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxIbK6CbME
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyEdDcVsqO
幾人雖然順利拿到了神器，卻在墮落城市的外圍遇上可怕的東西——即是眼前這隻即將奪走安提娜生命的巨大三眼章魚。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBqhLLI9Ar
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPLN5gbZbs
事實上，少女在這場團隊抗戰中也打得很焦急，明明後來米克森決定暫且撤退另想辦法，少女卻因為太想要為同伴做些什麼的心情而留下來對抗。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpETPNu9bf
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ460Ct5D6ym
而她會有這種太過激動的情緒，或許也包含著長時間「超負荷」所帶來的精神侵蝕。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEBLcTJtNr
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKo8afU4mq
等到現在真的面臨死亡時，那種炙熱的情感才終於一口氣冷卻下來。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuyMuHT77Y
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuVG35MhZf
她思考起自己的愚蠢。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuEdVvKV5u
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtjHsn0iDw
幾個月前，在弓箭手村郊外也發生類似的事情。若不是艾瑪的出手協助，當時可能就命喪黃泉了，而原因追根究底也是源自於這種太過急於求成的心態。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH17sKrfmJH
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrTk7IWMvJ
在她的心底，始終都存在著那道抹不去的陰影。因為怯弱，薩肯才必須犧牲，少女總是這麼自責。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPJJxm9vnP
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHxLbpBiar
因此，即使偶爾也會恐懼，罪惡感倒也會迫使她主動接受挑戰，卻也可能將她導向萬劫不復的深淵。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehakpwJe7z

——如果可以……如果可以的話……我還想再跟大家……180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuubHxewR94
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipaetmbUmA
雖然說不出話，少女仍是從喉間發出細微悲鳴。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMJdbKrQiw
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLM3ggsPIXu
可是如今想這些也沒用了。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSFUrAHhKP
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeKzyaNDrc
少女被觸手勒得痛苦，感覺意識也開始朦朧。而且因為身體被牢牢固定住，也沒有辦法使用救命技能。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bly0yyiyq
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjm3dWTx0Bu
很快的，所有一切都模糊了⋯⋯。

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaY9yN5aFCC
少女感覺到有某種東西投入已經死寂的心潭。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGUgMOReH0
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vGvB1ZjQE
很細微的聲音......傳入少女的感官。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJAFNpIj5N
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacGPEQLFml
——好像……有人在呼喊著我。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OHaqeHN0t
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡronNNWCePD
但少女只覺得眼皮很沉重，根本沒有一點睜開的力量。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGe2xRERzyi
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuKk6c516J
可是，正當她又要完全睡去時，又有某種幻影若隱若現。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLVRxmNQYS
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfIBC7uBCD
——不能死。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAVh1qXYlu

⋯⋯但是活著又如何呢？就一定能夠復仇嗎？180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxX27VyDRE
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUTHUGpeKC
而且就算復仇了，任何人也都不在了不是嗎。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtcYnQHQfz
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDKqHYC3h9
這樣的話，還不如就乾脆地去放棄一切。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JmSfIiqcW
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAJ2p41mw3
少女幾乎放任自己茫然的思考往消極的方向而去。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcBrMCiKPh
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiH2alqKMAq
再次下墜。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOcxxG4V0s
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd7GQss7hs
然而少女又聽到了剛剛的聲音。
不斷地不斷地⋯⋯180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs1SI80iE1
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3q7nEjuus3
每當想要沉沉睡去時，就又傳遞而來。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMgWSNkWfx
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeh7qvAIvBV
於是，少女終於聽得比較清楚了。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvlZ20OcXX
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzsJ8roda9
那是個尖銳的音色。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsWBdcf1L7
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknB6b0fvGZ
接著⋯⋯雖然沒有看到，但少女黯淡的意識裡，這次浮現了另一個景象。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDD917PbCo5
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MvT4PWRYr
不是在那個地獄裡所發生的慘劇。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJ4ns27v9r
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nVNEUKj4e
而是風光明媚、夜柔雲輕時的共同歡笑。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTMOKfckb9
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA69BgAwLWI
也因此聯繫上了更久之前的溫暖記憶。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56G82W7o7M
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlZjkW9V8a
從此作為契機，少女的感官恢復了。聲音清晰，眼睛也開始可以捕捉光芒。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17YxCBbsdu
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutEac4NfbT
然後，那個人的樣子映入眼簾。隔著一片濕潤的朦朧。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKJkOdoLtE
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYla82aYbn6
「好吵。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwIMHK1RSq
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlje6SqfKOi
安提娜發出了直白的感想。抱著她的女孩笑了。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacYocGPCau
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9P4eczq1a
「……太好了！妳還活著......我以為妳已經……」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpSTD2lvfl
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcnclwuGEx
說著說著，少女哭了起來，雖然原本就有點哽咽。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDTar3vXSk
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNoR1VNidg
「妳是……艾瑪？」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnBDzf83OD
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kwTBoUZl4
「真是的，我當然是艾瑪啊！如果我再晚來一點，我們就沒辦法像這樣交談了......」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwpqmQaFHC
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqgY5lB7PJ
艾瑪顯然還略帶哭完後的沙啞與鼻音。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQxsqOXfHf
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCN2Ncud9P
「這麼說來......剛剛感覺有某種液體流入我的喉嚨......那是藥水嗎？」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjikaUFtpKF
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT4adAY6ab
看了看衣服上殘留的紅色汙漬，如此向艾瑪問道。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nD4zVKTi2
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNZyjPkzIt
「嗯。幸好還來得及……」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpDDcerSfc
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMmrkMC7sW
這時，安提娜聽到了其他的聲音，不遠處的陣陣打鬥聲讓瀕死所致的記憶斷片也開始接續。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQ6dqZXVfq
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtW2RMZHcQ
「這個聲音……」安提娜睜大眼睛，立時彈坐而起，「那個怪物現在怎麼了？！」
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOPmGS5upZ
「現在米哥他們正在和牠戰鬥著。他們勉強把牠引到工地那邊。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwxYA476uL
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3w0LPExok
「是為了救我對吧......」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRvSnA3cw7
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqbM3pjHVR
本來米克森已經決定撤退了，若不是為了營救安提娜，也不用重新置身危險的戰鬥中。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsbPN1wHWB
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWvq4et1sK
即使如此，他們還是奮不顧身。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbjWZmsAAg
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ461jMU5V7i
安提娜想到這裡，不禁又因為愧疚而低下頭。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFpUh6fCXZ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpvhp4oTq6
但現在不是繼續消沈的時候了。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvk9aVphTjx
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTlluURtvm
若不想讓狀況更糟，就必須站起來！180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvya0vsI1i5
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50O63DF2sA
這也是唯一能夠報答他們的方式。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8alSEXbkY
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJz67phJxRK
「對不起艾瑪，我已經沒事了。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdJ4lIeJFy

「嗯，那我們趕緊到前方的工地跟他們會合吧！」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YqnxmDdcZ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkO3XinzMRT
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGCo4Rj2RE
不遠處名為小心墮落的工地，是通往城市內的必經之路，也是現在米克森等人與怪物激鬥的戰場。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebZ0xcEaWP
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjliawiC23
跟著艾瑪小跑步穿越一堆看似廢棄的鋼筋後，打鬥的光芒隨即映入視野。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSkOREnAMF
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtT4zk1SEI
米克森注意到兩人。瞬間的眼神交流後，艾瑪朝安提娜說：180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7EvkuskoZ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURc0RmkFVo
「我們一起上。——麻痹箭！」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryXtHNYqyN
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4g8xlp58I1
不用太多言語便心領神會。和之前相同，艾瑪組織起進攻，放出的箭矢凍結了怪物的行動。在此同時，安提娜也召喚出了代替自己移動的烏鴉群，往怪物襲擊而去。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2Ua8J8w60
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdF7Ywrypy
原本苦戰的隊友們，因此有了能夠脫身的空檔。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUsSMs8ghw
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLipcMHJA7
米克森首先來到兩人身旁，在知道安提娜已經沒事後，明明看得出倦意，卻如釋重負般的露出笑容。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjMDZ8uSd4

「妳做起事情還真是隨心所欲啊！」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBabl6c3Ig

維德攤開手，語氣有些嚴厲地諷刺。克里斯見此則解釋：180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTlvPnqhJo
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNeTX8rsnC
「維德哥只是刀子嘴豆腐心，提娜妳不要放在心上。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T1iGk7smH
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFivsC50KS
「確實是我的錯，對不起！然後也真的謝謝你們......。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Mo8tOMsA2
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSANeNVe9A
「道歉我們就接受了。但還道什麼謝啊，既然是隊友就更加應該互相幫忙不是嗎？」米克森說。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXS8IwGTWQR
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRKzyo58km
「所以妳也別總是只想單打獨鬥啦！」然後是維德。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5P8A3tvR0
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBAbtBGXJK
「提娜，儘管自己再怎麼強，很多事情靠自己是沒辦法解決的哦！」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycPU3scm1k
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoENwIPb8b
「艾瑪說得對。下次千萬別再做這種讓人擔心的事情了。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQRMxIgLKn
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7Zksl5zCB
艾瑪和克里斯也接著說。被抑制住的淚水這次終於緩緩流淌而出。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYaC5BonY3
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYSRHHcsoU
「謝謝.....真的謝謝你們大家......是我太逞強了......」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FmgznC5fN
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AwlDMgC09
越聽他們說的話，淚水好像越止不住似的，安提娜只好暫時側過臉，默默擦乾眼淚。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBM5oTlEhF

「提娜。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RKVdhySD3

平凡無奇的叫喚，讓安提娜感到格外溫暖。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyS3MDfsSjj

但僅僅如此，她便明白她的意思了。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6dv8hzPMr
