Automatic Doll Automaton

The group started walking through the mountains with Carrot and Crank at the head and Lena and Adam at the back. About an hour after entering the forest, an ogre appeared with a huge wooden club.

“Kurrr!”

“Oooh! It is also a large species!”

“Prepare for battle!”

While everyone was nervous, Crank said quietly.

“Carrot.”

She slightly closed her eyes and took a graceful ballet pose like a music box doll. She then began to spin violently, then turned into a top and flew off, slashing the ogre’s neck with precision.

wheeeing!!!

“big···! How big?!”

Surprised by the sudden pouring of blood, the ogre covered his throat with a large hand, and the ghetto shouted.

“Direct support from the rear! leg! Concentrated shooting on the knee! Shoot!”

Tutututututututubabababababa!!!

The 3 automatic crossbows purchased by pretending to be crazy with expensive money showed terrifying firepower. In an instant, his knees turned into hedgehogs, and the ogre collapsed without even swinging his stick.

thud-!

“movement! crank! Pick up Molly! Carrot! Run! You are the point man! Halfway up this mountain!”

“Ahahahaha! Follow me! The point man is out!”

Carrot jumped out and everyone jumped away from the ogre. said the ghetto.

“Lena is back cover! look around! If there are pursuers, let them know and intercept them!”

“yes!”

After running up for a while, a stupidly standing Carrot appeared. People who seemed to be adventurers were lying around them.

“What?!”

“Are you a person?”

“Carrot! What happened?!”

“I’m not!”

Everyone made ridiculous faces at the absurd answer, but Crank lowered Molly on his back and looked at the people who had fallen on the floor. Most of them were horribly crushed, as if they had been hit by a large weapon, and many were missing the upper or lower body.

“I think I got hit by that ogre earlier. Did you eat the missing part?”

“There are people living there.”

From behind the rock Carot pointed out, something like a human head rose and then went down. Crank was about to approach, but Lena was ahead.

Returning behind the rock, she soon helped a man lead her out.

“Ugh, ugh…!”

“What are you? What happened?”

“Uh, we are adventurers dispatched from Trogen… Came here for work… To the ogres…!”

“Are you guys here looking for dragon rares too?”

When Carrot spoke casually, the man’s eyes lit up.

“Everyone, you too?”

“ha···! It came from Argon. You know that this is Argon Village’s territory?”

“Oh, no. Strictly speaking, it is on the borderline with trogen. Take a good look at the map.”

Ghetto nodded and looked at the corpses around him.

“The informant didn’t just sell information to our guild. Tsk, I feel like playing around.”

“What?”

“First, let’s start with those corpses. Hey, what’s your name?”

“Goff.”

“Goff, are you the only one who bought it? how many people came Did you find the rare?”

“12 people came. I couldn’t find the rare. It was on the way up.”

Ghetto looked back.

“How many!”

“Seven people! Oh no! Six humans and one automaton!”

“Good thing. Five people, including you, survived.”

Upon hearing the story, Goff immediately began to sob. Time began to steadily decrease while collecting the body and treating Gough, who had a broken leg. The ghetto was restless.

“It looks like the sun will set in a little while. Shall we go down the mountain?”

“yes!? Let’s go back the way we came?!”

Molly freaked out.

“Because it is a mountain where ogres roam. There will be other large species as well. The bald ghetto’s judgment is right. But the sun will set on the way. The night is dangerous.”

Everyone’s faces turned brown. But Carrot was bright.

“But don’t worry. i will protect you all I am an expensive, well-maintained weapon. not worth the money Don’t compare it to the smashed junk over there.”

Gough opened his eyes wide.

“Oh, is it an automaton?”

Carrot lifted her skirt slightly and said hello. Crank helped.

“It’s a waste to go down now. Our power is still intact. Mr. Ghetto.”

Ghetto looked back at Lena and thought a little, then nodded.

“Okay, let’s hold on. Unfortunately, there is no time to bury. move forward like this. Yuri, how about Goff?”

After feeding the expensive healing potion from a bottle with a broken leg bone, he soon became limping and walking. Ghetto ordered the move, but Goff blocked it, watching Yuri raise his thumb.

“please! Let me take those friends! I’ll give you any amount of money!”

“no. You can’t fight while carrying a corpse on your back.”

“They are all village friends. I can’t just throw it away!”

“Ah, this man!”

In the midst of a scuffle, Carrot did what everyone couldn’t bear to say.

“Then, as a compromise, should I cut off the head and bury it separately? Take it with you when you go.”

Goff, who had a terrifying expression, fired at him.

“You are a puppet with no manners! How could you say that…!”

Carrot looked up at the ghetto.

“Hey, do you want me to break your leg again? You looked like you were going to give it all while crying earlier, but now that your eyes are at the same level, your spirits are getting stronger, right?”

“this···! this···.”

Goff stopped talking and lowered his head.

“···cut.”

Carrot smirked and pretended to listen.

“huh? what?”

“Cut your throat!”

“You are not being honest. okay.”

Adam and Urie dig while Carrot grabs a hatchet and decapitates the corpse. Meanwhile, Crank searched the corpse and collected artifacts.

Burying the sack with her head in the ground, Gough was startled when Lena brought a large rock and placed it on top.

“What, what? What power…!”

“I’m going to rob a dragon rare, so shouldn’t I be as prepared as possible?”

“We also brought three automatons. However, due to a malfunction during the battle, it was not able to fight properly and was broken. damn it!”

“huh? Did you say 12 people earlier? Didn’t it include an automaton?”

“Only people, automatons should be hit with equipment.”

Ghetto nodded and shouted.

“depart! Let’s keep climbing to see what comes out! As soon as the sun goes down over that mountain, we start preparing for camp!”

Everyone climbed the mountain nervously. It wasn’t steep, but it was difficult to walk because there were a lot of rocks and trees.

Intermittently encountered monsters were driven away with arrows or Carrot and Lena intercepted them.

“Certainly the scenery is nice, and dragons are worth living. Is it really there?”

“Anyway, we are exploring. We just need to check the location and secure the evidence.”

As the sun began to set, the group came across a truly gigantic cave and stopped in front. Molly opened her mouth through the crowd of people looking around.

“Shall I tell you my general opinion?”

“okay. How do you rate the mage?”

“At least it’s not a living dragon rare. If it were real, the mana would have to be so thick that you couldn’t breathe, and the monsters would be so infested. Either fake or abandoned.”

“Good. A safe return is near.”

Ghetto, who was snooping inside the cave, looked back and gestured. Carrot hopped and ran. Hearing something, Carrot nodded, waved his hand at the crank behind him, and was shot into the cave like a bounced spring.

“Molly! smoke screen! One big enough to cover this area! The rest climb up the cave and build a bunker!”

Everyone moved in a hurry. Lena pulled out some rocks and quickly made a great pit, and disguised herself as a tree shed, a bunker was created in no time. It was narrow, but enough for people to hide.

“Smoke!”

Smoke billows from the ground at Molly’s cry. The smoke that gushed out for a long time soon filled the surroundings like fog. Just in time, the cool temperature in the mountains held the smoke from dispersing, and the smoke screen stayed for quite some time.

“Prepare so I can use it one more time.”

“all right.”

Maybe 30 minutes passed. As the day got darker and I was worried, I suddenly heard a loud shout.

Queueee

The first thing that jumped out was a small doll covered in blood. As previously mentioned, Carrot ran in a straight line to the other side of the wide clearing in front of the cave and pulled out the owner of the cave.

“I-what is that?”

“Oak! It’s an oak!”

A group of orcs poured out in droves. Carrot let out a joyful scream.

“under-! Ha ha ha ha ha! Catch me!”

Disappointment and worry for a while, Ghetto said.

“Molly! range attack! Let’s catch them all! Automatic crossbow! Catch it so it doesn’t go too far! Shoot!”

While hiding in the bunker, three automatic crossbows shoot arrows, and arrows rain from the sky.

Pupper puck!

“Quack?!”

Molly completed the spell while the orcs who had been hit by arrows wandered around in the light fog.

“Smoke Ignition!”

Fuhuaaagh!

The accumulated smoke caught fire and suddenly ignited. Fireworks were pouring in all directions with a flash of light. But that’s all, the smoke ignited in an instant, and there were many burnt orcs, but no orcs were burned to death. cried Molly as they cackled.

“Everyone gather here! hold your breath! Don’t breathe! As long as possible!”

Everyone shut up and poured into the bunker. A few minutes later, when everyone’s faces were about to turn blue, Molly rummaged through her arms, pulled out a scroll, tore it open, and placed it in the center. Something like wind came pouring out.

“You can breathe now.”

“Whoa! What happened! Did the magic fail?”

“no. that burned the air. Look at that.”

As he poked his head out, most of the orcs suffocated and fell wriggling. Carrot was bewildered, but he was walking around breaking the head of an orc with the club he had dutifully picked up without anyone telling him.

“Carrot!”

Hearing the call, Carrot threw down his club and hurriedly ran.

“Everybody was here.”

“Are you okay?”

“Oh, nothing is broken. But why are all the orcs knocked down?”

“It’s because it burns the air.”

Carrot, who opened her mouth at Toast’s words, immediately clapped her palm.

“ah! that’s right! You guys need to breathe! that’s interesting. It’s because it burns the air. Oh oh!”

“It’s choking. But there might be some of them alive, so we have to leave them like that for a while and then kill them.”

“huh.”

After 30 minutes, it was completely dark. Attaching lights to their bodies one by one, the party went around and smashed the heads of the orcs who were still breathing.

In the meantime, Gough’s colleagues appeared in the woods. It seemed that he had come to hear flashes and explosions.

“Goff!”

“Dion! F2!”

The ghetto, who was watching them hug each other and rejoice, asked.

“Are they your colleagues?”

“okay! uh! Hey, how was the rest?”

“I don’t know. Only the two of us survived. And with that guy.”

In the distance, an automaton with a bony skeleton and a hard mask-like face stood there, carrying a large backpack.
