『哇嘎—————！』157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmh7VOc4a27
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡap8Mjz6ANv
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlvlf5RcH1
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDxcf16xjd
但在安提娜眼前的這隻，卻有讓任何人眉頭一蹙的特點。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuWTmUaFv5
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOyZo0U4vP
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIWGrrrgHg
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8f9wa6HIm
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMK0YYO53m
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOItXvLa187
眼下這隻怪物，正是有著這樣非凡的體型。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtnsdJk3Rx
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8xuqNGeJS
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqajQoZ2R1a
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG04kpmeGOt
所以毫無疑問，眼前這隻章魚是「異常的」。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yiOOyYTBI
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcJ4Gja4wd
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchEWQej2fG
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3mhx6zAs8
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEf9q8iQbSc
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyRA8kobpG
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......。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZprwW4r6I
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ35VsZE8O
她落下了不甘與懊悔的淚水。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsytKCXFyu
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUbc1wf3NX
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFKrTOao2U

時間倒回稍早。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9FA8xGDrW
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rNNVpSAGE
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjW6pmdUux
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemwWvMkbjQ
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYUMzuD3SD
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Y8rZdah4A
於是，赫麗娜便決定讓他們去完成這個重責大任。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LM3Qd0L2Q
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qqIh8kIMb
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskBvRGUfio
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiip5odV3u
然而這個看似比較權宜的結果，卻有意料之外的變局。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a0WRlABuJ
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9x89iqcT1g
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWW1GzqrYMI
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgTn8f2VCu
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VrHrMGsRb
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIekF5EiW0
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOIkiNt6El
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnK4FifGq6
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMWzkRDFF5
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BvUDAvXmD
她思考起自己的愚蠢。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkzz4s877x
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEh37WYOVIz
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFHVxEwjy8
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlaseA5Wpm
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKX839ItoY
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxguXVVYFw
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcNgPPL88Q
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTiqMv40Oo
——如果可以……如果可以的話……我還想再跟大家……157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGp6RKZLKW
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVlDSikrGU
雖然說不出話，少女仍是從喉間發出細微悲鳴。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtPPy68Rys
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ7aF3CI0c
可是如今想這些也沒用了。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuANafH3ZXN
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqhQrWkTZ2
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42XDgLcllR
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtjIJEKHUL
很快的，所有一切都模糊了⋯⋯。

時間悄然流逝。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBY0Y1o3UO
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLXiWvOTS8
少女感覺到有某種東西投入已經死寂的心潭。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bLnlDSD6G
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCGfV7nSNO
很細微的聲音......傳入少女的感官。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN5H023hwz
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj31PEXGXSS
——好像……有人在呼喊著我。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr58mjl7uSw
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvPErTMwGN
但少女只覺得眼皮很沉重，根本沒有一點睜開的力量。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8HTBwUZRA
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqlOw3f83H
可是，正當她又要完全睡去時，又有某種幻影若隱若現。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVuSIL1cmP
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4jwZOFt2y
——不能死。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDSES5zMW3
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VqxXhIl02
⋯⋯但是活著又如何呢？就一定能夠復仇嗎？157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjoGcJR9Tv
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc64k7YHuR1
而且就算復仇了，任何人也都不在了不是嗎。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmI3PLtOnq
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzAy4QdBMu
這樣的話，還不如就乾脆地去放棄一切。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMequGaroBC
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsIv6s8GBV
少女幾乎放任自己茫然的思考往消極的方向而去。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVSOHf9SSI
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqXDNUOp5z
再次下墜。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EvOHDMNVv
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlwO7f1dAW
然而少女又聽到了剛剛的聲音。
不斷地不斷地⋯⋯157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHi1Hn8qjhF
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJicxWQuqbp
每當想要沉沉睡去時，就又傳遞而來。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzyXGO0GFt
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE5btFXGim
於是，少女終於聽得比較清楚了。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXNk8kYIdb
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHy8IYjnPu
那是個尖銳的音色。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgjQ5titJp
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iyVzgi5TR
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhCTngh3uE
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ490eA8MqAU
不是在那個地獄裡所發生的慘劇。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAvyNCunv5
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5wdX0mdI2
而是風光明媚、夜柔雲輕時的共同歡笑。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPSmoqmYmF
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFZufNilue
也因此聯繫上了更久之前的溫暖記憶。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFftc2Nmvp
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY26kcNvOWT
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkUD5gA1Aw
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0vTN4dBBt
然後，那個人的樣子映入眼簾。隔著一片濕潤的朦朧。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJhxm0g7XT
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8c5RqphIHH
「好吵。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlAh9Hl8yb
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ953bHbxZVM
安提娜發出了直白的感想。抱著她的女孩笑了。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDch3U9fp6k
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1aCiTHttX
「……太好了！妳還活著......我以為妳已經……」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncoLML1s7I
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgZGIGIfvE
說著說著，少女哭了起來，雖然原本就有點哽咽。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDTdWI7Xb0
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yMrm4Ffm2
「妳是……艾瑪？」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3bZEDC0l8
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz1LlCaTMi
「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......」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtmQRab4dL
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsl3xQlTr2
艾瑪顯然還略帶哭完後的沙啞與鼻音。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9rfYEDWc6
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS2RtD7Z8Z
「這麼說來......剛剛感覺有某種液體流入我的喉嚨......那是藥水嗎？」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6SegEDvkx
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9tF8jr707
看了看衣服上殘留的紅色汙漬，如此向艾瑪問道。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGM04SSzSQc
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oU61Baxz4
「嗯。幸好還來得及……」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjegdp1RXW
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx9h7iRwa1
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiulgYx06dl
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvHxTVyWcR
「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？！」
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMN6U3EHAU
「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。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuR11FtH9Y
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrMuiywFVu
「是為了救我對吧......」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyb0VeiRPf
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F6LDhe8Sh
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcb108fFfA
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKH9hcREhB
即使如此，他們還是奮不顧身。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqpu46vdOZ
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRtE4VfnU6
安提娜想到這裡，不禁又因為愧疚而低下頭。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGdZ7oKVhB
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcvIAdmQsD
但現在不是繼續消沈的時候了。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEGNZhdch0
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIS2gUP8eT
若不想讓狀況更糟，就必須站起來！157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdLOC2IpPc
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpku02UFHc
這也是唯一能夠報答他們的方式。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSurhUXLwaL
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGowSO1CQ4L
「對不起艾瑪，我已經沒事了。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1Y9krTVUb
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aRKidnQTr
「嗯，那我們趕緊到前方的工地跟他們會合吧！」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZOsha1wKd
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouzvgfnbb3
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqmAEan43c
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsBbObRMh2
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YJIULHoDW
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjI6ouPEoYo
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQo21uYWWf
米克森注意到兩人。瞬間的眼神交流後，艾瑪朝安提娜說：157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud8wFKvewE
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71Hh2M8kEU
「我們一起上。——麻痹箭！」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXLZVEMKzy
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6KcDtLgwi
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdKTh2S451
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpIYxRLESG
原本苦戰的隊友們，因此有了能夠脫身的空檔。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vimeNqXds
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVThUTMjiTx
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ejMZEMQiH
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6p2erabwa
但接著過來的維德就沒那麼和善了⋯⋯157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1J21CE0O9H
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9qBo10ued
「妳做起事情還真是隨心所欲啊！」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXZSROfNZC
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGfDyuDbaY
維德攤開手，語氣有些嚴厲地諷刺。克里斯見此則解釋：157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4X3xM2rOC
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4bjDDdJqB
「維德哥只是刀子嘴豆腐心，提娜妳不要放在心上。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1btF6iAP6
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ab18wQKTn
「確實是我的錯，對不起！然後也真的謝謝你們......。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlGcIonp2Z
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzgRYIzHCY
「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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIb13zfYZ7a
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d8CC2xIcw
「所以妳也別總是只想單打獨鬥啦！」然後是維德。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiyt9rX6fX
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOBuNqvUYB
「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！」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd99OxcJsiw
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXsXyJKYgy
「艾瑪說得對。下次千萬別再做這種讓人擔心的事情了。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnfq4UGmFB
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdyF3kYDM3
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1akHF28C1L
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCxM7TfPvd
「謝謝.....真的謝謝你們大家......是我太逞強了......」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHQo1EvhLa
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArUqTZfc3t
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovJRSvsFWE
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8O1n5tKcB
「提娜。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEgD5byr95

但也在這時，艾瑪伸出了手放到安提娜的肩膀上。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimqGvqRRYn
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOx9QdvFBYm
平凡無奇的叫喚，讓安提娜感到格外溫暖。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4oOSo9LAc
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmJcNopf4J
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。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIovRs6tcg
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRi3hS0tLU
但僅僅如此，她便明白她的意思了。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprLZPkUTXp
