Chapter 271.1 - To The Lowest Floor 3
BGM: Lost in Green
===
Finally, the day had come for them to carry out the transfer to the lowest level.
In addition to the amount of cores needed for teleportation, we’d also secured some for Takanashi-san to use in forging. Everyone was carrying their own weapons and armor, as well as essential survival items, water, and food.
The current plan for Class 2-7, just as Momokawa explained, was for the three who escaped to form a rescue team, while the rest attempted to escape on foot.
To him, it was nothing more than a convincing lie meant to lower our guard. But in fact, it was still the most promising plan we had right now for saving the entire class. Naturally, the previously chosen members of the rescue team had to be significantly reshuffled.
So, even if we managed to activate the Heavenly Gate on the bottom floor, that wouldn’t be the end, it’d actually be the beginning of a long journey to escape. That was the reason we made sure to thoroughly prepare everything while we were still in the School Tower.
As a result, all the burden ended up falling on Takanashi-san alone, and I did feel bad about that. But even so, she didn’t complain once and gave it her all.
I somehow managed to learn the 『Simple Alchemy Formation』, but maybe it’s just a bad match for me, there was no way I could handle any of the more advanced formulas. All I could do was help with the dull prep work of primary material processing alongside Himeno-san and Nakajima.
