『哇嘎—————！』91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9zEnPHPDO
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWifyRYYaf5
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJ7piTseYy
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3OXkTYypZ
但在安提娜眼前的這隻，卻有讓任何人眉頭一蹙的特點。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YomfYns82
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XJDLXOaGO
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUf9XfMPYY
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIq8JtxqF3n
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPX5WOkzzGV
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RB4XV9h51
眼下這隻怪物，正是有著這樣非凡的體型。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWEMrsXeAw
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuzp1ZfgLn
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdokGDYxaO
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRuHE8ddIS
所以毫無疑問，眼前這隻章魚是「異常的」。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhILF73wtt9
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDymMDE3MrF
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypwYUYMY29
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAi41U0XXF
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2P9bPowHTU
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5mmOkyvVT
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......。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOCLjOp2Vz
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBkoue1BmP
她落下了不甘與懊悔的淚水。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajezEFrI6n
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoIlG4Wqi8
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUxEUsDqDb

時間倒回稍早。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPc0PW99Yj
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wtPwyZNuo
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDb4wHbG08
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWjsLdesQE
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwE2vmwywh5
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUhlfj9Eb4
於是，赫麗娜便決定讓他們去完成這個重責大任。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUErkZHzlVN
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNdR7wwbWo
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA3zvhcYNX
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgP0sTdMN2
然而這個看似比較權宜的結果，卻有意料之外的變局。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIPNU1MZgU
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6p4qCznLP
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhKcJKmGIu
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcO90TCxPU
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcm9jwyGbE
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePWFaWYPHI
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wiNylGdKO
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVQuKEF9PU
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI97t5nwhU6
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSlk4zdPI3
她思考起自己的愚蠢。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0yMBsyPfJ
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyj0eW3ibv
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9Vglm7zYC
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRGpOATk1e
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7U9MufLDdK
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkP4MhmU1TC
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4pkDFk8Fp
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgF17rWxiC3
——如果可以……如果可以的話……我還想再跟大家……91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2axkWPVXMm
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxq6ddO3QK
雖然說不出話，少女仍是從喉間發出細微悲鳴。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbz8lOOMDwN
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafq6Mxm6oE
可是如今想這些也沒用了。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbja8TPwbX
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LnMtFmGM5
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8YRBDGM5C
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASQ5SGG0G2
很快的，所有一切都模糊了⋯⋯。

時間悄然流逝。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5M7pHyYQR
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtp23OVlaWC
少女感覺到有某種東西投入已經死寂的心潭。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGdSWO7aPa
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicJKOhx6yQ
很細微的聲音......傳入少女的感官。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2ZzbsnKRv
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMfM2bh3gI
——好像……有人在呼喊著我。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ypDx8fjNI
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrm60OOrH7
但少女只覺得眼皮很沉重，根本沒有一點睜開的力量。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmw4e8Wbcgo
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13fLs2eiRE
可是，正當她又要完全睡去時，又有某種幻影若隱若現。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwVERlBYbQ
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXimxldpCOd
——不能死。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcrWHUY8Wx
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkFFvtogoa
⋯⋯但是活著又如何呢？就一定能夠復仇嗎？91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhYtV3Fz0l
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PxKjzibU3
而且就算復仇了，任何人也都不在了不是嗎。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaknz7YRHq0
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxKL7oncic
這樣的話，還不如就乾脆地去放棄一切。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJx6jxdztK
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcv4ZjQqVH
少女幾乎放任自己茫然的思考往消極的方向而去。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPeD3Spr1l
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjxNaHQdqu
再次下墜。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsE3ijeeW8g
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpdrbyankk
然而少女又聽到了剛剛的聲音。
不斷地不斷地⋯⋯91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiZeJr7fjH
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUctskMQ2pq
每當想要沉沉睡去時，就又傳遞而來。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzULUktkaC
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIbATZiuDt
於是，少女終於聽得比較清楚了。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmdVAl3AAm
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fsE9H4G1q
那是個尖銳的音色。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQa2cSIjW3X
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQ5vYYqJCK
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSA221qPuiK
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjNIfGZIoy
不是在那個地獄裡所發生的慘劇。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ7CkoT3HS
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WrnHJ1yaC
而是風光明媚、夜柔雲輕時的共同歡笑。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJuBMX8h1d
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JkpCuwVNt
也因此聯繫上了更久之前的溫暖記憶。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdv6aIpKkL
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pIFWUq8dU
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRFhlcF3ay
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPkT7G6sDb
然後，那個人的樣子映入眼簾。隔著一片濕潤的朦朧。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KH0F9WGqD
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1bL36ouNx
「好吵。」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9AKyTEutW
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYmYpNkeC9
安提娜發出了直白的感想。抱著她的女孩笑了。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAX2kaqL7w
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqPkssdkJs
「……太好了！妳還活著......我以為妳已經……」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhhFZ6k3Ds
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzEyozinMc
說著說著，少女哭了起來，雖然原本就有點哽咽。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhP1YYo1QNr
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WNxowxdaF
「妳是……艾瑪？」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAch0wTVlaz
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCREdh8h51V
「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......」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XcdsLPw4J
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Waxhcnrti
艾瑪顯然還略帶哭完後的沙啞與鼻音。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59JQ1BXjiw
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuqdq3prlV
「這麼說來......剛剛感覺有某種液體流入我的喉嚨......那是藥水嗎？」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyq949l5S5U
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHmZNmBTag
看了看衣服上殘留的紅色汙漬，如此向艾瑪問道。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Xt8GyfVJ0
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCapRPAwlXa
「嗯。幸好還來得及……」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNzTEBLaTg
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HMdPQFjea
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdZTHmWzAz
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqBFs2WEW7
「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？！」
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayEJoXLbWO
「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。」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Gsxj15jgo
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0qpjGLiMf
「是為了救我對吧......」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFXPZI1r3m
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgY30JWQSf
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHe6Z0QHbkU
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5xLRwNg23
即使如此，他們還是奮不顧身。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78j1hkLrDS
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDf5zX0UVP
安提娜想到這裡，不禁又因為愧疚而低下頭。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAodCGzHhG6
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaVie5myFa
但現在不是繼續消沈的時候了。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVbamQDyqk
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbDYaBXVrc
若不想讓狀況更糟，就必須站起來！91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnJ4OH7gvF
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwtgFU7hm4
這也是唯一能夠報答他們的方式。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmb7n31r4c
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuNefm2ALP
「對不起艾瑪，我已經沒事了。」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTWcDIypr5
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3ghZ7YUgT
「嗯，那我們趕緊到前方的工地跟他們會合吧！」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqk8DGUBCNm
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHMn0bpbj7
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsH3MmfZPlp
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpZf52LuTY
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHOPwIJ5kS
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYatZMldMr
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetiAWQX9Wg
米克森注意到兩人。瞬間的眼神交流後，艾瑪朝安提娜說：91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8l9akQWwK
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIYc9vp1i3
「我們一起上。——麻痹箭！」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit9Dx2QrQp
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rPk6e2ncJ
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5r6BxBfAF
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwO704ewmTX
原本苦戰的隊友們，因此有了能夠脫身的空檔。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1uDhQQGWW
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwohHSI0OG
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vMv8FA7X7
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadYTqMd5OH
但接著過來的維德就沒那麼和善了⋯⋯91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQ130AhQuB
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZT4emmRWm
「妳做起事情還真是隨心所欲啊！」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAcO46mmxt
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDREDHpfam1
維德攤開手，語氣有些嚴厲地諷刺。克里斯見此則解釋：91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfporSZnOAN
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjSum202US
「維德哥只是刀子嘴豆腐心，提娜妳不要放在心上。」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbj8hYcvZ4
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ns57EONk6
「確實是我的錯，對不起！然後也真的謝謝你們......。」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTIa9BlyM1
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaS64ysm8Lt
「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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TiRO4uxrw
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBCJ9WgEwp
「所以妳也別總是只想單打獨鬥啦！」然後是維德。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYDGtsH4Ud
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1Om9aNNWS
「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！」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqzxrUiXLv
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz99UbNrhjg
「艾瑪說得對。下次千萬別再做這種讓人擔心的事情了。」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpjQGohYNj
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3gxJEdowc
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGq9X6FwWO9
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jpfgBR1xD
「謝謝.....真的謝謝你們大家......是我太逞強了......」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvAnEH9tx9
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZj5rRDAIzZ
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82aULYy0FR
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkRZCJifa9
「提娜。」91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgSVjZ1mf1
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFx8w831zhv
但也在這時，艾瑪伸出了手放到安提娜的肩膀上。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0nfFNuyXH
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJJKrwRBPA
平凡無奇的叫喚，讓安提娜感到格外溫暖。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo86WUNxdvC
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLAxYcQdRS
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。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dT5ruSQjx

但僅僅如此，她便明白她的意思了。91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5pHn4JqIx
