『哇嘎—————！』103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeduaGP322U
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedWOD4mxIT
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2IaZ16CJG
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPb7aIkiWJ
但在安提娜眼前的這隻，卻有讓任何人眉頭一蹙的特點。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZh2gyc4Mgx
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGd2OJ0fue
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeCPiS6O6H
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJIM4ekeye
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2iNNNopw0
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ArB4SeSDz
眼下這隻怪物，正是有著這樣非凡的體型。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEamuwyLYHS
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1xwAayaQ4
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijYTuHfJ9O
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6vmOTDzFS
所以毫無疑問，眼前這隻章魚是「異常的」。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz6ySKRW2G
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsB5ddQzIl
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZNdf9hmyP
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0WhgL1QX1
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4J3UQ3g32
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0mWwDFd0I
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......。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CA1lFcgBn
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0RkMnXz29
她落下了不甘與懊悔的淚水。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIqro6vcvG
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEERZc4qhi
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Z58KAl0VS

時間倒回稍早。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvBo33aBvy
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZRkCwRDN6
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQgrQlUiA8
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0r8UQu2K0
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFI7Ha4Bkt
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6didl5Hu5
於是，赫麗娜便決定讓他們去完成這個重責大任。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUT0N2kq8n
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthZaCRQSlQ
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZobwB2Pr81
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFvwQsk1vE
然而這個看似比較權宜的結果，卻有意料之外的變局。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJUj2fTIZD
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOIOrOOUUk
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2DX7dvDOu
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPjqBT0yM2
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZoRq29dAf
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfRxMTtvRI
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxo44F6OAy
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4gPIaUF9N
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPL5U1Gpgva
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tnQDz0z1z
她思考起自己的愚蠢。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLiQIbCn8j
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnV9f60zNT
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqu7zkei1i
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNh7QugFl6
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsukpSgwttO
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqEPG9cz7H
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUyQmdi968
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUDW1aGTvh
——如果可以……如果可以的話……我還想再跟大家……103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFk7EsuU4x
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCthoxhDNzO
雖然說不出話，少女仍是從喉間發出細微悲鳴。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33ghLJDtD6
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh7onmPs5C
可是如今想這些也沒用了。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqfLdAGKiV
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUM5pHCfUsd
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo6h9Kp7PZ
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbtVJtWyKS
很快的，所有一切都模糊了⋯⋯。

時間悄然流逝。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii1wIxSlFY
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Qz35jLBga
少女感覺到有某種東西投入已經死寂的心潭。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqd6DK8ec0
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo4tvbL8Pw
很細微的聲音......傳入少女的感官。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQuKaaSfZf
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnBTXh31I0
——好像……有人在呼喊著我。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdEoJDHnCu
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MS5vRxkUP
但少女只覺得眼皮很沉重，根本沒有一點睜開的力量。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2KYekw6km
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAS4qlEeuLd
可是，正當她又要完全睡去時，又有某種幻影若隱若現。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AmyuUllWc
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYukZm3M6Q0
——不能死。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjUZC2aQl4
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmtu27qFLB
⋯⋯但是活著又如何呢？就一定能夠復仇嗎？103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAp9pQxrcl9
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GeK6jzAtt
而且就算復仇了，任何人也都不在了不是嗎。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2s15f0SxBA
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zpUubIcdF
這樣的話，還不如就乾脆地去放棄一切。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUJNMHl4Im
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XlGF7qB0v
少女幾乎放任自己茫然的思考往消極的方向而去。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27lyAr3Rag
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZc23AI6hw
再次下墜。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccymVHQ6Dd
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6yAj4BpmN
然而少女又聽到了剛剛的聲音。
不斷地不斷地⋯⋯103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmysfuh5xr
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUiMFn2LPs
每當想要沉沉睡去時，就又傳遞而來。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySLeh5kJTs
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zf1XkA0lY
於是，少女終於聽得比較清楚了。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSuvas0qK4
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHjQA1WABD
那是個尖銳的音色。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VDdVDbvHO
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMKzeeDb0a
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfonbNkc57q
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYK85XEXq5
不是在那個地獄裡所發生的慘劇。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0tyFJzyKx
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNszVgbUMcU
而是風光明媚、夜柔雲輕時的共同歡笑。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWfJd62Hn5
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DC7FETIBx
也因此聯繫上了更久之前的溫暖記憶。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAciW35D5g
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBGnESoNHN
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPFGQiCKZN
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3Ab7ZVW6Z
然後，那個人的樣子映入眼簾。隔著一片濕潤的朦朧。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NZmO38eqf
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ctxJfwGa9
「好吵。」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzk4hECpDyl
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO64sQIHdtz
安提娜發出了直白的感想。抱著她的女孩笑了。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhb5oUP1xC
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuzzkrTEZH
「……太好了！妳還活著......我以為妳已經……」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQIy9UQoLq
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XnBZ1Ehew
說著說著，少女哭了起來，雖然原本就有點哽咽。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrLWO2mgIn
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGAg3g7T9j
「妳是……艾瑪？」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wP4NpfvHZ
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xKdKi3FE0
「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......」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUM98vZeAts
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaLw6uC4pf
艾瑪顯然還略帶哭完後的沙啞與鼻音。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPdGeMfFFP
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWj5AQquNw
「這麼說來......剛剛感覺有某種液體流入我的喉嚨......那是藥水嗎？」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9D2Xko3ua
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjNfJXnBPo
看了看衣服上殘留的紅色汙漬，如此向艾瑪問道。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAGmlV0b1X
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1OiA0KqDu
「嗯。幸好還來得及……」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGajJdasODI
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnRYhEJw1V
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCJk0baVq4
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuy51hxr7IE
「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？！」
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJG3Bt49Iq
「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。」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2APfvBMTXF

「是為了救我對吧......」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzyxGThEdw
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhfcQEIrl8
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfQokOTaNa
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuspx0sPpu
即使如此，他們還是奮不顧身。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0BBh8hXKb
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOD3AVDy4X5
安提娜想到這裡，不禁又因為愧疚而低下頭。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpLrLg8S59
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeIxG1Gjux
但現在不是繼續消沈的時候了。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4pty3jUnq
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16ClerEzZK
若不想讓狀況更糟，就必須站起來！103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamjJPiqfHe
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjypPizihN
這也是唯一能夠報答他們的方式。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikhlItKkei

「對不起艾瑪，我已經沒事了。」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuMANB50KU
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjZcmgOU96
「嗯，那我們趕緊到前方的工地跟他們會合吧！」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLw96N7EzP
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStaRcJeMzx
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Jq3DrsY0B
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOz2NJviGZR
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpuywB9GXK
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwp6boW1e8j
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5V4BzHrXv
米克森注意到兩人。瞬間的眼神交流後，艾瑪朝安提娜說：103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0TiDsiwR2
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGi3PP7CDe8
「我們一起上。——麻痹箭！」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Hx703ExXX
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGSbZrI22t
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ2Xoj2AFd
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGA6YpTRrx
原本苦戰的隊友們，因此有了能夠脫身的空檔。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElIOkvdDfx
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TdgTFiGPS
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtLIALk41f
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQdohzpvPY
但接著過來的維德就沒那麼和善了⋯⋯103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBF0791VhM

「妳做起事情還真是隨心所欲啊！」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz9Fiplxqx
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOyEmnskjF
維德攤開手，語氣有些嚴厲地諷刺。克里斯見此則解釋：103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98Je1m1GTA
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZoV8RzpJ3
「維德哥只是刀子嘴豆腐心，提娜妳不要放在心上。」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1J4TzAvPJL
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULVqHl4CqB
「確實是我的錯，對不起！然後也真的謝謝你們......。」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKefepMPOW3
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfweNZGT2F
「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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nU7daDkAl
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezheggqzyU
「所以妳也別總是只想單打獨鬥啦！」然後是維德。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oNiGTEW49
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrAenzWq6W
「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！」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KTrZcCcwA
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibBP4l9e91
「艾瑪說得對。下次千萬別再做這種讓人擔心的事情了。」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6htbyr0Au6
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92I5uFx61b
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8OQ668nHN
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJQYxsit5G
「謝謝.....真的謝謝你們大家......是我太逞強了......」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWa0PSznxz
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFIGWb3CZQ
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。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmpWiVvKUd
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡee9yvZIxn5
「提娜。」103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLobwnFThAH
103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6mUXqrMW9

103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwLknv53ke
平凡無奇的叫喚，讓安提娜感到格外溫暖。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9N2QqZV9N

安提娜轉頭，只見一向話多的艾瑪只是不發一語地點了點頭。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINAE1oK7p7

但僅僅如此，她便明白她的意思了。103Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAMId6nE0f
