『哇嘎—————！』113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYASPyYX9pu
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGleD87yjmT
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmOUyBy5Ye
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBWzIClNKr
但在安提娜眼前的這隻，卻有讓任何人眉頭一蹙的特點。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsH142IeY03
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9wssWbnRK
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ731LH9P3IV
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEY1DxuvCBq
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFf1608IvU
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xFSegb5Iy
眼下這隻怪物，正是有著這樣非凡的體型。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWLxKdUX2m
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtomb72srV
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4C9uUNlJM
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CUVknBXym
所以毫無疑問，眼前這隻章魚是「異常的」。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEaOTLNUen
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfFcukMgDf
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OL0XcxkYc
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JaxDLmzOZ
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OxnYZ8AkP
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRu8wpjRoK2
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......。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHchRElRHhs
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIndvYJeIE
她落下了不甘與懊悔的淚水。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oyjm7CCn5
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUvb944mCP
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2R17Tksff0

時間倒回稍早。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMTkh27ShV
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsC4225eya
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhzVA7m23P
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoP4O3DYAb
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgmdVikKcS
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TqOHABgwq
於是，赫麗娜便決定讓他們去完成這個重責大任。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2Fu3WB0zd
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt3hozbYUa
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0Tmik8dM4
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6tfqEmoT0
然而這個看似比較權宜的結果，卻有意料之外的變局。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JjZIsWFOL
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIyDUi6bd5
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEzPkUe7ax
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7x9tCmCzX
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgl5eXAz2o
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVO4oowCqc0
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPidtSOJ8v
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPCR1vZU5v
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJWSDwHnQI
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJVoUyDLic
她思考起自己的愚蠢。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlASVE28Jle
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHwz24fjKX
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaib7dSfUDR
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1uPdSgP30
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42tA8b42dw
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXsT9zWt88
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb8vvLixUg
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8GHHUqKlJ
——如果可以……如果可以的話……我還想再跟大家……113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHtEaftsRC
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DxePv9x5b
雖然說不出話，少女仍是從喉間發出細微悲鳴。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVD5PrcLZC
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiQbqMVAcs
可是如今想這些也沒用了。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OqrdSZKgq
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZXTzLZ7U1
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIzRjZ9KMo
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorLkT8id34
很快的，所有一切都模糊了⋯⋯。

時間悄然流逝。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMe9lt4bNuB
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuST7UNzdZ
少女感覺到有某種東西投入已經死寂的心潭。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9TWC3TwMd
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47KfRZmFvM
很細微的聲音......傳入少女的感官。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYDVO0RUbM
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWaRNxMBUi
——好像……有人在呼喊著我。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hdbe6s3L2
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XanBKD9qY
但少女只覺得眼皮很沉重，根本沒有一點睜開的力量。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxz2b36Hgwf
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpUo6pS5ES
可是，正當她又要完全睡去時，又有某種幻影若隱若現。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TRP8KKC4P
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBchUMwjA5A
——不能死。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLceNr3JMV
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9Q621hSzG
⋯⋯但是活著又如何呢？就一定能夠復仇嗎？113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYhMhxt1fS
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79z7NbXA4h
而且就算復仇了，任何人也都不在了不是嗎。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBggWtXuT2
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnx2MCfVzI
這樣的話，還不如就乾脆地去放棄一切。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMz8D8suYup
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9Y0yzJyIE
少女幾乎放任自己茫然的思考往消極的方向而去。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvYyuXRJBp
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgWf0RD6zk
再次下墜。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Or68JSI8X
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopoigiGufC
然而少女又聽到了剛剛的聲音。
不斷地不斷地⋯⋯113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHmMsRYWRj
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstdiCWUCrb
每當想要沉沉睡去時，就又傳遞而來。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNq6oRT0dd
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiK5PLds3uc
於是，少女終於聽得比較清楚了。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdajQsGCVl8
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpcEk7cC5z
那是個尖銳的音色。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFR3WiEbcTs
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoRkgo130E
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3ENXqwLkv
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bN8kGXFOd
不是在那個地獄裡所發生的慘劇。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVp58v7fh7Q
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3c1cHjTah
而是風光明媚、夜柔雲輕時的共同歡笑。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5Vx7SegFd
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBIZAdJN2Y
也因此聯繫上了更久之前的溫暖記憶。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNV3z5aCIzx
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IYUl081ZY
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiYHshMKtM
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5jkwxB3xu
然後，那個人的樣子映入眼簾。隔著一片濕潤的朦朧。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVqDdXPpwu
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKyXrFruvW
「好吵。」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxX8iMTPIB
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxp81v8tvZ
安提娜發出了直白的感想。抱著她的女孩笑了。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ShoI2xDEt
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4g99Iy8uf
「……太好了！妳還活著......我以為妳已經……」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO1a0OgAaR
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCGsQMxTxc
說著說著，少女哭了起來，雖然原本就有點哽咽。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvgIJkVIXx
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJb47BrTR4
「妳是……艾瑪？」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRurRYT8hP
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLAwwRgAJS
「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......」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla98JQRECl
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lVfQ8N1mG
艾瑪顯然還略帶哭完後的沙啞與鼻音。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZZBZOOU8s
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡto4h327C76
「這麼說來......剛剛感覺有某種液體流入我的喉嚨......那是藥水嗎？」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0flu259to
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrspA7HeCp
看了看衣服上殘留的紅色汙漬，如此向艾瑪問道。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifOUxxjSzF
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27FtaI5CBb
「嗯。幸好還來得及……」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dSb3Ka6fq
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpvPqy6286
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTd2VDa3Hy
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88kMZtPwYs
「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？！」
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeli4PFMA9
「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。」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6KJrQE0C3
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nEjLhPEXD
「是為了救我對吧......」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyJ3b7UdJk
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVxLx40WvQ
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAPH4tpYVF
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkhy0ocAG3
即使如此，他們還是奮不顧身。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduw1xlMvID
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJgwzyp3Em
安提娜想到這裡，不禁又因為愧疚而低下頭。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkCinXb3bf
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnb2b5eUou
但現在不是繼續消沈的時候了。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcIDfVp2Pg
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7TcjEoRQp
若不想讓狀況更糟，就必須站起來！113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdhpPptVUG
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2TEF4FxBu
這也是唯一能夠報答他們的方式。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8YMekf3hd
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjZF1ZQ0hW
「對不起艾瑪，我已經沒事了。」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuu6HTZIsXw
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUP18QNfI6
「嗯，那我們趕緊到前方的工地跟他們會合吧！」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPJ54BXJCc
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oQqozEIyT
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5c9fqXKaq
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDdJuFyXSh
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR0LKQWoBW
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRtZ64koRp
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoF6X0YYFT
米克森注意到兩人。瞬間的眼神交流後，艾瑪朝安提娜說：113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ViaO3LriP
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQdTtzZSeR
「我們一起上。——麻痹箭！」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zMSQ2TSpH
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObDWTjG1y8
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgxtIMIguC
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQtE6Zns6U
原本苦戰的隊友們，因此有了能夠脫身的空檔。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP1OIBvuil
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYqcWg7KUb
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUOm0izxN4
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeQ6GB0RKk
但接著過來的維德就沒那麼和善了⋯⋯113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PlHQUZHsB
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hZbeZ0CBu
「妳做起事情還真是隨心所欲啊！」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNleKRei4x
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbYaXX10eG
維德攤開手，語氣有些嚴厲地諷刺。克里斯見此則解釋：113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYkDbxXnD6
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n5aiOCism
「維德哥只是刀子嘴豆腐心，提娜妳不要放在心上。」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3dttMQga5
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnIDENFQwA
「確實是我的錯，對不起！然後也真的謝謝你們......。」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeYdQMOjPE
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUMTuUvoWs
「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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CUbRbVRly
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8tsWkE5mQ
「所以妳也別總是只想單打獨鬥啦！」然後是維德。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFhv4B8IA7
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgT8H5sFTq
「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！」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0n8YkcK5j6
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hx1VYDtyL
「艾瑪說得對。下次千萬別再做這種讓人擔心的事情了。」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qaVaFzXMD
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFvH68cCFz
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXXhXxlrIk
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2Bn0V4xhj
「謝謝.....真的謝謝你們大家......是我太逞強了......」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GBnrxFiYz
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZK7lOcO2N
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qg0GJlloD
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdn4gCsSuvn
「提娜。」113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpFnzw7Fvx
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfikwUadf4
但也在這時，艾瑪伸出了手放到安提娜的肩膀上。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDR8pAQxtaB
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFhGIZqCo9
平凡無奇的叫喚，讓安提娜感到格外溫暖。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwCdU1uhcc
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttuLjt2w8T
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。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc64gL9mZvs
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZLz8HLTPT
但僅僅如此，她便明白她的意思了。113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwATI30cK6U
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXi4AAPxUF
擦拭完眼淚，轉過身之後的少女，似乎稍微理解何為團隊了。
