“The mountain… was it Jirisan?”
“Because the energy here was so good…”
The place we arrived at following Solen was a hiking course in Jirisan.
Because the guide was so long, we had to take them by helicopter, but I never thought we would end up going all the way to Jirisan.
“… That’s the place.”
Solen let his beard growl with tension.
According to the sign, it’s probably a place called Nogodan.
Before setting out to subdue the Horned Ogres, Solen added one more concern.
“You really have to be careful when entering the Horned Ogres’ mountain home. They are good at traps.”
“A trap? What was there?”
“Most of them are designed to kill intruders…”
It was truly varied.
Arrows pouring out when you step on them, rolling rocks, spinning axe blades, and even spears rising from the ground.
They were all so typical…
“…There is something like that.”
I couldn’t help but keep at least one thing in mind.
What Solen pointed to was a group of wyverns with red spots.
From what I’ve seen in Daegu, they were not only larger than the existing wyverns, but also had the repulsive power of an 8th-tier creature.
By the time the guys reached the middle of the mountain…
Pushuung!
A giant harpoon was fired from the mountain.
and…
Crunch!
It pierced the chest of a giant wyvern in one blow.
-Keeeeeeeek!
Charrrrrr!
A wyvern being pulled helplessly by the connected chain.
It looked like Jirisan had turned into a giant toad.
“There’s even a ballista, what the…”
-Keeeeeek!
-Kaaaak!
Harpoons flying in succession.
A dozen or so eru-patterned wyverns disappeared without a trace.
To summarize from our perspective…
“… We can’t get in by helicopter.”
“If only my body was stronger…”
Lee Yong-soo added as if he felt sorry.
Even though Lee Yong-soo had the 8th-level repulsive power of the helicopter James had reinforced, it was difficult to guarantee that he would be able to survive being hit by something like that.
There was no other way.
He sent Lee Yong-soo and Solen into the subspace and summoned Lancelot from Camelot.
“Did you call, my lord?”
chuck!
Lancelot prostrating himself.
Wheeing!
In front of him, a refreshing breeze from the green fields swept through his hair.
tweet!
A ruined world.
Although about a third of Jirisan was burned down and turned into a desolate place, nature still existed.
Crisp and crunchy pine cones, and even a startled squirrel running away.
Was it because the clear air filled the depths of my lungs?
I ended up spitting it out to Lancelot.
The forbidden language used by bosses at work.
“Lancelot… Do you like hiking?”
“……!!”
Lancelot flinched and shook his shoulders.
Walking this beautiful mountain path alone with my respected boss.
Is there a better leisure activity in the world?
It was clear that Lancelot’s heart was also swelling.
“I… like it.”
“Yes, yes! Let’s go quickly.”
Immediately after incorporating the Manong tribe, I finally reached the 7th rank.
He was finally able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Lancelot, who had been ranked 7th from the beginning.
Traps set by the horned ogres.
Even if a particularly strong-looking harpoon were to fly at me, I was confident that I could easily take it down.
and…
“Let’s talk about something together…”
Those above you have other things to talk about.
Looking at the Manon tribe that had flowed in as refugees, I couldn’t help but think of the knights of Camelot, who were once ordinary beings.
They probably have stories to tell too.
The Jirisan mountain climb started right away.
I decided to take this opportunity to listen to Lancelot’s story.
.
.
.
Peeing!
The taut rope that had been hanging over my leg suddenly snapped.
Crunch!
The gears of an unknown machine meshed together.
Swoosh!
The iron spear came out quickly and rushed towards Lancelot.
but…
Knock knock!
Thud!
The sharp blade was dented like an aluminum can.
It was a great success.
Fireworks exploded like firecrackers, rushed in like the wind, and small bombs fell like autumn leaves, but none of them could break through our repulsion.
Phew! Phew!
“Ugh, this is annoying.”
A presence no different from that of a fly.
Most of the time it was just itchy, and the occasional strong attack only made a slight sting.
Meanwhile, the conversation between me and Lancelot was in full swing.
Lancelot answered my question.
As if bringing up a very old story.
“It was the black magician of Barnaul. The one who took over our Avalon dimension…”
We’re on our way to rescue the captured Manong tribe.
Refugees from the dimension of destruction.
Although they were a pitiful bunch of Manon, they could not compare to the misery of the knights of Camelot.
They are undead who cannot die even if they die because they are possessed by a cursed item.
“What happens if the dimension is completely destroyed?”
“It varies depending on the invaders’ goals. Most of them are magic stones, but… there are also cases where they take the land itself, and cases where they turn an entire dimension into a ‘specialty product’ manufacturing factory, like the black magicians of Barnaul.”
“Then your Avalon is now…”
“Just like us. Avalon is probably… undead itself by now.”
Lancelot added bitterly.
Advertisements
A completely dead dimension.
However, it is a dimension that is still being utilized as a resource even though it is dead.
Lancelot imagined his homeland in such an image.
I asked.
“… Will we ever be able to save Avalon?”
It was a thoughtful question.
Because right now, I don’t have the ability to say that.
Even though he added the possibility of ‘someday’, Lancelot shook his head.
“That is impossible. The Chamber of Commerce does not open the way to other dimensions to anyone other than invaders. And my lord…”
“…not an invader.”
“yes.”
Lancelot continued speaking, looking up at the sky as if assuming the worst case scenario.
“Perhaps… Your Majesty, you may become the new owner of Avalon’s factories. But if you don’t make more money than Barnaul, the Chamber of Commerce won’t sit still.”
“Chamber of Commerce…”
Lancelot had a broader perspective than I.
Because, unlike me, he personally experienced complete destruction.
But it was also true that I was cowering before their power.
“But why are they coming in so slowly? If the higher dimensions you mentioned were to come in, it would be a total mess.”
“After all, what the Chamber of Commerce wants is fees. They don’t want the planet to be destroyed all at once. It would be like killing the goose that lays eggs.”
In short…
“Are you saying you’re going to raise it and then eat it?”
“That’s correct.”
It was an arrogant and unmatched remark, but… perhaps this was also an opportunity.
Because you have to grow faster than they can even imagine.
Of course, not just me, but in a way that makes the existence of the Earth stronger together.
“My lord”
Lancelot called out to me softly.
“As you know, my submission stems from the curse of Camelot.”
It’s something I had guessed.
Absolute obedience to the owner of Camelot.
Because it was part of a terrible curse placed on the Skeleton Knights.
“But unlike forced obedience, it is up to my will what kind of mind I have. That is why…”
Like the Manon tribe, he also wants to save the knights of Camelot.
Lancelot also seemed to have received that sentiment.
So, I can’t help but add this to you.
“I am satisfied enough that my lord is not an aggressor. It has been so from the beginning.”
“… Okay, thank you.”
That was all for me.
Because I didn’t have the ability to save them yet.
But even in conversations between people who are bound together by their own shortcomings, something incomprehensible is bound to blossom at the center of them.
For now, a short hike of about an hour has brought that.
like that…
We were slowly reaching the middle of Nogodan.
“Where the hell are you crawling in from! You bastards who came out of the makeshift boat!”
A tall fence surrounding the mountain peak.
Above him, an ogre with horns and a bald head spoke in a grating voice.
They were smart enough to set a trap.
Rather than going out to hunt humans out of the blue, they chose a strategy of settling down in Jirisan and hunting monsters and people in the area.
Because of this, the beautiful Jirisan Mountain has turned into a mountain village inhabited by monsters.
The Horned Ogre Scout chuckled as if he found it amusing.
“I don’t know how you got in here… but it was your fault. Our mountain village is full of devices that can cook you…”
Even though he kept talking…
“I guess this is the right place. You just got here. Let’s go eat some kimbap and cider now.”
“Yes, my lord.”
I went straight into subspace.
Leaving the portal open to give them hell.
and…
Shushu shushuk!
“…loads?”
That was the will of the ogre scout.
.
.
.
About 30 minutes had passed.
The mountain was littered with corpses of ogres impaled on holy spears.
Along with that…
10,000 Manong tribesmen.
The nearly infinite number of furries gathered around me like a flock of sheep.
Tick tock!
licking!
The guys showed their gratitude, and my trousers were soon soaking wet.
Of course, I was doing everything I had to do.
The Manong tribe, who were second to none in finding traces, dismantled the ogre traps, and I also ate my fill of them by scattering burritos in all directions.
Looking at the bustling Manon tribe, Lancelot added with concern.
“There really are a lot. There probably won’t be enough space even in the subspace…”
“There’s no need to worry about that. Didn’t they say they wanted to live here from the beginning?”
I just installed the portal straight away.
[Received 1,000 Magic Stones] [There are 57,943 Magic Stones remaining.]
To begin with, the Manon tribe had no fighting power at all.
If you go down to the city center for no reason, you’ll most likely become a target of other people or monsters.
It would have been better for the ogres to have made their nests in the beautifully decorated mountains.
Moreover, as long as the portal protects, there is no place safer than this.
“…Mr. Jeonggyeom!”
Solen, who had found a new home, ran towards me in joy.
A guy who runs around jumping around and flicking his tongue at my face.
I said, patting her head lightly.
“Before that… This time, you guys need to help me out.”
Phew!
A black heat wave rising from the city.
Baek Min-woo put his hand on his forehead as if he had a headache.
“… Again?”
Their true identity is goblin sorcerers.
Knowing that they were outnumbered, they would have retreated, but they continued their guerrilla war, killing civilians to the end.
Red Gangun Sword Unyang grabbed Baek Minwoo’s shoulder.
“We should move soon. It’s unfortunate, but… the damage to the outer areas will be much more severe.”
“I know. I know…”
That you can’t save everyone.
It was a proposition that had not changed since the destruction came, but I couldn’t bring myself to say it.
Because this place was Baek Min-woo’s one and only hometown.
Phew!
Hurrruk!
You can’t weigh the weight of life.
Baek Min-woo, who had been in agony, eventually lowered his head.
“…Okay, let’s go.”
“…”
That was the only way.
The sorcerers’ terror will continue, but it will save more people.
At that moment, I was about to move towards Bupyeong.
“…huh?”
Tiring!
A message came to mind.
—–
[Web transmission]
The distribution of the ferocious pursuers, the Manon tribe, begins.
I hope that the Pax FC staff will be able to break the pots of hidden monsters with the help of the Manong tribe.
—–
“Manong tribe…? Distribution…?”
“What is this…?”
And shortly thereafter…
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo!
READ IN LUNACAVE.COM FOR FASTEST UPDATE
From Chinatown, which had been their stronghold, the ground began to shake with the sound of frantic footsteps.
“…!?”
It was a fierce pace.
Hundreds of creatures pour out from the portal.
But looking at that fluffy fur, Baek Min-woo thought.
“A vicious… pursuer… ? That?”
Hair that covers the face like a saddlebag.
But standing on two legs and pricking up its ears, it was clearly a squirrel.
And on top of that…
[Pax FC]
Their affiliations were clearly stated in holographic letters.
Doo doo doo doo doo doo!
Hundreds of Manong tribesmen spread out throughout Incheon’s downtown area.
“…Should I follow you?”
“Let’s go. It’s not like Daehyeop Jeonggyeom sent a message for no reason.”
Pfft!
The two of them followed the Manong tribe who were running without hesitation, demonstrating their lightness.
What they soon saw was…
“Kkieeeek!”
A startled goblin warlock, and.
Hehe!
It was a fluffy Manong tribe lying on their stomachs in front of the two people.
‘…Are you asking me to compliment you?’
“haha…”
Only then was Baek Min-woo able to deal with the annoying goblin sorcerer.
Hehe.
Looking at the tail of the Manong tribe spinning like a propeller.
“… It’s already come to this?”
A week has passed in the blink of an eye.
A large-scale monster outbreak that swept through Korea.
Although it was a regrettable disaster that resulted in countless casualties, paradoxically it was also a time when Korean believers grew remarkably.
“Oh, yes yes. Then please take care of me.”
Not all monsters have been cleared out.
However, Yoo Seong-cheol reported that the damage from monsters had decreased surprisingly.
The tense situation that has been going on for some time is gradually calming down.
“It feels like home for the first time in a while.”
The martial artists who had been sweating together with me returned to Beijing.
Since the representatives, including Minwoo, also stayed in each region, it was the first time in a long time that only our family was left in the subspace.
Oh, and including alien pets that have become part of the family.
Creation.
The eldest sister, Kim Joo-yeon, was hugging Solen and touching her soft belly.
“Jeong-gyeom, I love you.”
“…”
A look of utmost satisfaction.
There was absolutely no trace of destruction to be read on that face.
And on the other hand…
A 77-inch OLED TV and a cozy leather sofa installed on one side of the logistics center.
A table equipped with various snacks, drinks, and cup ramen.
It was the work of Kim Sol, who spent hours fussing over how to set up the optimal game settings.
“Finally! Finally!”
Now, the final puzzle.
widely!
When Kim Sol snatched the newly released PlayStation like a flying squirrel…
Crackle…crackle…
“…uh?”
A printer in the ‘Logistics Situation Room’ began printing out unidentified paper.
More precisely, in the facilities of the Chamber of Commerce, which were still in operation.
On paper…
[Self-rescue plan due to sharp decline in brokerage revenues in Korea and Japan]
– Resolution on the integration of other dimensions into the Pacific region
The title and content were written like that.
This is truly ominous.
and…
“…no!”
Crispy!
Kim Sol dropped the game console with a scream.
Anticipating the turbulence that will come again.
