Chapter 350 – 344 Anomaly
I looked closely at the cavity for a while, but didn’t find anything out of the ordinary.
Hwanin crossed his arms and struggled, then met eyes with Anne, who was with the women he rescued.
Upon meeting her eyes, Anne realized that her phantom had something to say to her, and she immediately ran to her phantom.
=Do you have something to say?=
“Okay. I just had something I wanted to ask. Do you know anything about the shape of the core?”
When she asked while looking around her, Anne also looked around her and answered.
= I’ve never seen a core. I only saw the core core three times while participating in the core core subjugation request through the church several times……. There doesn’t appear to be anything core here. Didn’t you even find the ghost?=
“Okay. No matter how much I looked, I couldn’t see it.”
While answering, something suddenly came to mind, so Hwanin took out a map and calculated the current location, movement line, gait, and viewing distance, and began to fill in the map.
After that, the shape of the forest surrounding the spawning ground of the core approached me strangely.
Anne also noticed that, and asked while placing her hand on it.
= Doryeong. Aren’t these three places a little strange? This is almost the size of a training ground.=
“…….”
This is a labyrinth, and the core is the heart of the labyrinth. There’s nothing strange about being in the ground, but wouldn’t it be natural for it to be hidden in a tree?
When Hwanin turned to her carriage to call for Isilite, she could see Isilite approaching with a woman who appeared to be some second-rate warrior.
A Miao woman in her mid-to-late 30s who wrapped her blanket around her body like a cape. She is a woman with many similarities to Raviola, including the blue body hair of her hair and cat ears, as well as her face.
= Master. This person said he wanted to thank the owner.=
The beautiful woman who caught her Hwanin’s gaze shrugged her shoulders slightly and bowed her waist deeply. In the wind, the front of her blanket opens wide, revealing the naked body of a mature woman.
=Thank you very much for saving us, the villagers like this, Holy Son.=
Compared to other women, she still has some mental composure left. In response to her confident and dignified attitude, Hwanin answered while tying the woman’s blanket.
“We just did what we could. By the way, do you have any relationship with Miss Raviola?”
= Yes? Ah, she is said to be Yu Mian, the child’s mother. Perhaps…….=
“What you think is right. Miss Raviola must be happy to hear that she is safe.”
= Ah…….=
A small joy spreads along with relief on Yu Mi-an’s face.
She was worried that her village might have been destroyed, and her Hwanin’s answer to her was a relief that could not be compared to anything else.
“By the time we return to the village, Praver’s reinforcements will have arrived. You don’t have to worry anymore.”
And Yu Mi-an intuitively noticed that the saint in front of her had solved everything in this situation.
It has been two months since she was brought here. Had things gone right, the rescue team should have arrived less than a month ago.
But now, the fact that the saint’s party, not Prabur’s enforcement unit, has arrived is a story that things have not worked out properly. And her own daughter, with her inexperience, could not have solved such a problem.
= Thank you very much. Thank you! How should I repay this favor… !=
You are a woman who is stronger than you think.
She might feel a little frustrated when she goes through such a thing, but Hwan-in accepted her greeting with admiration, although it was a little bit of Yu Mian, who hardly felt that kind of feeling.
Hwan-in thought for a moment about Yu-mi-an, who had a great liking for her, and then asked her just in case.
“You don’t have to answer if you feel uncomfortable. Have you ever seen anything unusual in the labyrinth before being captured by the core? Dark woods, reservoirs, amphibian heteromorphs, gnarled trees, anything goes. If you’ve ever seen anything that makes you feel even slightly out of place, I’d appreciate it if you could let me know.”
At Hwanin’s question, Yu Mi An thought for a moment and then pointed at the wooden wall in the direction of 2 o’clock.
=I didn’t see anything else, but I did see that incredibly huge toad exhibiting unusual behavior. Every time I visit this place from time to time, I see him standing motionless for hours with his back against the wall.=
Hwanin looked at the place and gave Yu Mi An a soft smile.
“All right. Leave the rest to us, Yu Mian, go back to the wagon and rest.”
=Yes.=
After thanking her again, Anne whispered to Isilite in a small voice as she looked behind her as she returned to the carriage.
= Even after going through that, her spirit didn’t break down in the slightest. Isn’t she a real strong woman? =
= I heard that a person with a sense of responsibility is strong. Before she is a woman, she is strong because she has the responsibility and mission of being a high family in Kravin Village. =
=Yes, it could be.=
Coincidentally, Yurpa’s eyes also met, so Hwanin, who signaled to come here, pointed at the wooden wall that Yumian pointed at and ordered Isilite to break it down.
“Be careful what lies beyond.”
=Yes.=
The moment when Isilite stepped forward and created a sword of light with multiple swords, raising her tension moderately.
= Huh? Two bags?=
A faint light quickly gathered around them and two swords were created.
Two identical swords of light that subtly illuminate the surroundings.
Seeing her not believing that she had created it, Hwanin smiled and congratulated her by tapping her on the shoulder.
“Congratulations on your growth.”
=Certainly, I caught a lot of heterogeneous species here. Congratulation. Will I be overtaken by Seuli at this rate?=
= Oh? Oh yes Thank you, Master. Thanks Anne too.=
Hwanin looked at Anne, who congratulated Issilite, without letting her notice.
In a short time of less than half a year, Isilite, who was only in level 3, jumped up to level 5 and got a rare job called Sword Hee, continuing to grow.
She was a Hwanin who thought that it would not be strange even if envy or jealousy arose, but surprisingly, Anne did not harbor even the slightest bit of jealousy.
‘Is it Fleur’s tendency?’
Or is Anne’s heart broad and bold? Either way, that level is enough to be called a personality.
Her phantom raised her evaluation of her even higher, and was a little embarrassed to receive her yurpa congratulations. .
Shhh-
Along with the sound of the wind cutting, the sword of light slowly cuts through the root of the tree.
Hwanin instructed her Hwanyeon to control the tree so that it would not fall inside, and Anne followed behind Isilite, removing her left and right so that the fallen tree would not interfere with her.
Did he walk like that?
Kugoong! A tree fell over, exposing a small space inside.
=…….=
= Uh…….=
= Ah… ?=
Hwanin’s women expressed bewilderment at the sight revealed through the trees.
The view inside was unreal.
A huge crystal the size of a man, and a misty gray-white energy around the crystal, and a golden orb inside the crystal emitting light.
The space, about the size of a room, was dyed in such golden light, creating a dreamy landscape with gray-white clouds and mist.
Hwanin, who gazed at the gray-white mist for a moment as it hovered like a cloud on a stormy day, looked at the flawless, human-sized, transparent crystal without even the slightest scratch.
Well, without needing to say anything, that must be the core.
Hwanin looked back at his girlfriends who were holding him from behind as he tried to enter the core room.
It looks like something has hardened under pressure.
“Why?”
= That…… It feels like an invisible chain tightly wrapped around your heart and body. Yes, this…….=
“…… Is it a mental invasion?”
Anne, who had been talking stammering, nodded her head broadly at her ghostly answer.
Even in the midst of this, her heart rang in her ears as if her heart was pounding up to her eardrums. Her hands and feet get cold, but only her cheeks and her face feel hot.
Not only Anne, but Isilite and Yurpa were also experiencing something similar.
Hwanin awakened their spirits by firing a wave of tranquility in a calm voice at their appearance.
“Calm down.”
=Lord, master.=
“Seeing that it can cause mental damage in an instant, it is certain that this is the core of the labyrinth.”
Even Anne and Yurpa, who had the highest rank, were caught up in the mental invasion. Going any further than this is dangerous.
“I’ll break your core, so wait here.”
“I’m fine.”
Perhaps because he was born in a labyrinth, Hwan-yeon, who is not affected by mental invasion along with Bi-sang, says that and sits on Hwan-in’s shoulder.
Whiiyi——……
As he approached the huge crystal, Hwanin felt a strange feeling grow stronger.
It feels like a golden orb inside the crystal is watching you.
「Hwanin. I’ve been thinking about it for a while, but that fog seems to be reacting to you.”
“…….”
“And when I used Wave of Tranquility, it seemed that the cloud fog absorbed a little of the wave…….」
Hwanin felt the same way. It is said that she also felt a sense of wonder, so she was reluctant to approach the core any more.
No matter how much he has phasic currents and claims that he is immune to mental invasion, that is just speculation based on the phenomenon.
‘Even if I don’t get close, there’s a way to break it.’
Breaking with energies like Spirit Arrows or Spirit Blast…… Excluded as it may cause unknown phenomena.
Likewise, breaking with a magic weapon-barrier is excluded from the fact that it is an energy body.
Hwanin felt a pebble the size of a fist caught between his feet and picked it up.
It is not a hollow pebble, but heavy and hard like granite.
Hwanin injects lower spirits into his body, then activates Grimoam’s belt and the necklace of body activation that Anne received as a prize for winning the Farhist Martial Arts competition.
At this moment, Hwanin, who was second only to Isilite in strength, threw a stone at the golden orb in the crystal with an accurate pitching motion.
The reason why I was aiming for the sphere was because I somehow felt like I had to.
👅— Snap!
Thrown at a speed of over 300km/h, the stone flies like a bullet, penetrating both the crystal and the golden sphere at the same time, leaving a huge hole.
Deed deed deed——
Right after that, the ground started shaking wildly up and down, left and right, as if screaming, and not only that, but the grayish-white mist turned golden and scattered strong light everywhere, inflating its size.
“Uh…… Joe, it seems a bit dangerous, doesn’t it?”
Hwanin felt the same way, so the moment he took a step back.
「Eh?!」
Clouds and mist colored with golden light suddenly poured toward Hwanin.
He reflexively created a strong phase flow, spread three triple soul shields to block the front, and spread a panel shield as a barrier, but the golden mist literally penetrated the barrier and surrounded Hwanin.
‘I should have blown it from a little further away. Or maybe it should have been broken with an energy body.’
I thought that something like this could happen, but when it actually happened, I wasn’t happy about it.
Wrinkling his eyebrows as his eyes were covered with golden brilliance, Hwanin thought of a means to use even now, but there was nothing appropriate.
What was the rumor that those who broke through the labyrinth would gain wealth and honor? It wouldn’t have been a rumor like a trap.
=Master!!=
=Doryeong!=
= Now, honey…… !=
Turduck, chin.
Hwanin, who was preparing for the unknown phenomenon to come, felt his girlfriends hugging his waist, arms and neck.
“…….”
If you were away, you would avoid your body, but you know what will happen and fly your body.
Anger-!!
Hwanin wrapped his arms around his girlfriends in the hope that no one would die in the dazzling golden light.
