『哇嘎—————！』167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GKzzEBwcq
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6iuPIkXTT
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQPbj5ZrgS
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq2hRAtu23
但在安提娜眼前的這隻，卻有讓任何人眉頭一蹙的特點。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFCRMAyt1U
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwORRnV117N
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqgADYx542
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlCPKm2Hxp
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGV8rgiM6x
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77FiHRxY6D
眼下這隻怪物，正是有著這樣非凡的體型。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK1HEKcQ9n
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnZkHitzbt
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXor7Xebh1
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vvbLg1SsV
所以毫無疑問，眼前這隻章魚是「異常的」。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNSwIqEVPr
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTBqfaqEGi
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpJYIBRo7B
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyH5IuEoZ9
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wFO6R8sSa
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlspnZ0hScV
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......。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LIkjAlt2f
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbVOKVM61i
她落下了不甘與懊悔的淚水。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWzt4L0bpv
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XSUgTjlK2
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSFTci8kFn
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLCnXvYC1H

時間倒回稍早。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCc9Wj11hHe
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbqMemzR1M
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRSX9SicQn
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYQsMNsH0E
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcHLOPjHu7
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuMezUGEce
於是，赫麗娜便決定讓他們去完成這個重責大任。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhT6PwiiyG
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjL7ap9iRFv
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlElGoyT1VL
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4jqmKaxJD
然而這個看似比較權宜的結果，卻有意料之外的變局。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItDnXFm7n7
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW630VlBLDa
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4INA3dx6y
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhbnM12GAX
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaDIhaSiL7
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjhOEMJSf6
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE5e69BaHJ
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67ziWdO9lB
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsujnFUMQSw
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDW4Sk0h9ah
她思考起自己的愚蠢。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIAburYftD
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQpb39bacN
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmmeLUKDaR
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8biDBDbqaq
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvxOMXmhEP
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9M3GbYNgwu
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoak6t3NT88
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKKjiwXifI
——如果可以……如果可以的話……我還想再跟大家……167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPZzanMmdd
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BKghC4QQd
雖然說不出話，少女仍是從喉間發出細微悲鳴。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXiRPkUJ7J
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkf0valRjKz
可是如今想這些也沒用了。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6hjP65CCE
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBZeo0ejlQ
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9Lnq7I2XM
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNjGyt8Owv
很快的，所有一切都模糊了⋯⋯。

時間悄然流逝。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HSinrGr9s
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VrlJCx5vh
少女感覺到有某種東西投入已經死寂的心潭。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yox4oxskt
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFal1VQvjr
很細微的聲音......傳入少女的感官。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3N4wPOYoCr
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6xuXVdVWb
——好像……有人在呼喊著我。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eYESEAW21
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdfeAjEtJn
但少女只覺得眼皮很沉重，根本沒有一點睜開的力量。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnkOFY9pcD
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13PhtgY2Ca
可是，正當她又要完全睡去時，又有某種幻影若隱若現。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJelsc1ezcf
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SoVyVeb97
——不能死。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTwrphpPVm
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5JFhFHwCP
⋯⋯但是活著又如何呢？就一定能夠復仇嗎？167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGgXWxdTh1
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoghLGQ5lc
而且就算復仇了，任何人也都不在了不是嗎。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrup20YYedc
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHnlcS0rkv
這樣的話，還不如就乾脆地去放棄一切。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTCvo0aGL6
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18eDovJrxa
少女幾乎放任自己茫然的思考往消極的方向而去。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBOfZjXLtl
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hGPwMrhFQ
再次下墜。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9XOmMf4OU
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyEXl461SU
然而少女又聽到了剛剛的聲音。
不斷地不斷地⋯⋯167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDSe2AnCAf
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFySxBOrUB
每當想要沉沉睡去時，就又傳遞而來。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyML5vMdnX
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvkLUg4PeJ
於是，少女終於聽得比較清楚了。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAstUccREX
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bOcjAxEYE
那是個尖銳的音色。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAh1RsLe3J
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnSvs9a5kl
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZUhJECtAl
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDHq2hXkjv
不是在那個地獄裡所發生的慘劇。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1h1hRTP4K
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBusg5Z2hfm
而是風光明媚、夜柔雲輕時的共同歡笑。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcd6tzhEjmp
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoNJxfHeLP
也因此聯繫上了更久之前的溫暖記憶。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhu6GBQIUH
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1RbBzvA6D
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRz8nVkozZ
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZUO16CMiS
然後，那個人的樣子映入眼簾。隔著一片濕潤的朦朧。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXAUjVLzcq
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDAKRfaCQX
「好吵。」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUs0sS6KFxS
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0yrA7Z4s8
安提娜發出了直白的感想。抱著她的女孩笑了。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKN9rtPlbJ
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSk3swTpZRk
「……太好了！妳還活著......我以為妳已經……」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjk7rDwuE3
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GLROUZDZh
說著說著，少女哭了起來，雖然原本就有點哽咽。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHDRxc8kHW
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPTNTqB5CU
「妳是……艾瑪？」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldd5YFoYRI
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZQRjttDrH
「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......」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhPqkumPle
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQldaUsmstt
艾瑪顯然還略帶哭完後的沙啞與鼻音。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpZac05P2v
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WqznJVoUy
「這麼說來......剛剛感覺有某種液體流入我的喉嚨......那是藥水嗎？」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63rkeoJNFo
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwIsOc5OPk
看了看衣服上殘留的紅色汙漬，如此向艾瑪問道。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKw08GAPD6
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAeH7Nb36t
「嗯。幸好還來得及……」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjncjib6iTn
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIYxhySUdN
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGi09vpybJT
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UIQOnKqXV
「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？！」
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8tx57WgQD
「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。」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkSilm8Zeb
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxbtPUJTUo
「是為了救我對吧......」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYibZQ4OuGu
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSaiIP7r7I
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pEBqJP6qa
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlDSqYTRu6
即使如此，他們還是奮不顧身。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUjUh1VTX0
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LUeAIY3IX
安提娜想到這裡，不禁又因為愧疚而低下頭。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡva69XEF3gc
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBzQBiBXLT
但現在不是繼續消沈的時候了。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dno1DmfH5
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUvibM1FdY
若不想讓狀況更糟，就必須站起來！167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡro4xdzB94w
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDnbgbybTf
這也是唯一能夠報答他們的方式。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD7ZHbbv0Y
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdIexr0Q7G
「對不起艾瑪，我已經沒事了。」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDl296WdRx
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKk4VJ25GF
「嗯，那我們趕緊到前方的工地跟他們會合吧！」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnSSnSoCn0
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroIPTMY3ii
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0gEAdoGFs
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7hvrAQqWm
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGK1u7hjSlh
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU4nWRPnFO
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1z7jzyTPPK
米克森注意到兩人。瞬間的眼神交流後，艾瑪朝安提娜說：167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenGutIufYF
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIIRGuEuld
「我們一起上。——麻痹箭！」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih1QV5leTR
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9R81cmMYfn
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pcg7PEezG
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIySpni6TV
原本苦戰的隊友們，因此有了能夠脫身的空檔。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatkd7QLXJa
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Clkxkd7cH
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS7v4MYsTG
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRu4560gxX
但接著過來的維德就沒那麼和善了⋯⋯167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPlXGeuSXz
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuZKbJNSeD
「妳做起事情還真是隨心所欲啊！」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlKSzxgTny
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd0Rh96ZRO
維德攤開手，語氣有些嚴厲地諷刺。克里斯見此則解釋：167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwArJmubvdT
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BvYiWveIb
「維德哥只是刀子嘴豆腐心，提娜妳不要放在心上。」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlylUkTuS9Y
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnUV7TToiu
「確實是我的錯，對不起！然後也真的謝謝你們......。」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMMvMBtVWt
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmSo8d2te3
「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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4nEz0sMFr
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEz4Kp2VveG
「所以妳也別總是只想單打獨鬥啦！」然後是維德。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryeBH5MdcU
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CdzV9UGM5
「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！」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lMdzaNxO5
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWAQSI48zl
「艾瑪說得對。下次千萬別再做這種讓人擔心的事情了。」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3B4ebTFaA1
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BUF3NVOXE
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxcgzuAGgp
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigA5BQ1Plb
「謝謝.....真的謝謝你們大家......是我太逞強了......」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsk60yorqgi
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcPAB975ew
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKRMRnA6zS
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYP7VRwcQv
「提娜。」167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEidZ6k0BgV
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKw0B0aECz
但也在這時，艾瑪伸出了手放到安提娜的肩膀上。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCYCjJ1SFl
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwue7KnVgO
平凡無奇的叫喚，讓安提娜感到格外溫暖。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYNGb8dsQ9
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1tWkN8M53
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。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOT4OhgiPR
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AWdysBHge
但僅僅如此，她便明白她的意思了。167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qSbfomz30
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KvTiFTXAh
擦拭完眼淚，轉過身之後的少女，似乎稍微理解何為團隊了。
