Chapter 557 – 550 Giant Forest Village
The time Hwanin saw the heart core was only a moment. According to time, his women and Gaya party numbered several times his number.
“You say the shaman is an intruder, but that would be a very benign phrase.”
That’s why the chief and the shaman didn’t feel strange and only showed interest in his story.
=What is the difference between an invader and an aggressor? I feel like the latter is worse.=
“You’re right. An intruder, in the dictionary sense, refers to a person who enters or enters an area or sphere without permission. Invaders are those who invade and attack the territory of another country without justifiable reasons. In this case, it would be to steal the Labyrinth.”
= Huh. Heh heh heh.=
The chief grins as he watches the baby’s quips at his own story.
He wasn’t even mad. Are these tiny little things coming to take away the land we live on? Are you kidding?
“Inattentiveness and arrogance invite ruin.”
At Hwanin’s point, the chief laughed.
=All those who enter will die and become fertilizer for this land.=
“Is that so. I saw it on the way, but judging from the size of the village, it seemed that the population was less than 70.”
Cows and chickens were seen outside the village, but there were not many of them.
=Yes. Including children, the number is 62. But children are great warriors too.=
“You can tell just by looking at Miss Utava.”
The chief nodded slightly at Hwanin’s answer. And Hwanin broke the chieftain’s illusion.
“The number of people outside is close to 50 million. Of course, not all of them are warriors or magicians. Can you see the light covering my party’s body? People with such external characteristics are called professionals, but they are…….”
As his explanation continues, the expression of the chieftain, who had looked down on him, becomes serious, and the shaman also sits close to the table where Hwanin and his party are sitting and listens to his story.
“…… There are many truly strong people among them.”
= Hoo. How strong is it?=
“…… There are people who are strong enough to resist even you. If not, there will be few giants among you who can beat them.”
The topic suddenly fell into the wrong place, but Hwanin calmly answered the chief’s curiosity, and Isilite and Anne were suddenly pointed out, but their eyes were shining at the gaze of Hwanin and the chief, and they imitated the usual Hwanin to gain momentum. Raised
The chieftain’s eyebrows wriggled slightly at the unexpected energy.
Isn’t there an aura that seems to be suitable for a warrior of the same kind from a small person who looks like one of his fingers.
= Uh……. So what level are you?=
“I can assure you that if you are a skilled player like me, you will be unable to move and lose your village while being trampled on.”
The chief looked deep in thought at the story, which could be interpreted in many ways, and the shaman expressed deep interest.
Doesn’t that mean that even if they can’t do anything about it individually, they have the power to wipe out the ground of their lives?
And if you want to wipe out the village, you will encounter their own resistance, but the story that you can do it while blocking it? That…….
The shaman asked Hwanin in a calm voice.
= I don’t feel lies in the words of Mr. Spirit. It must be a story based on facts. Then why did a person with such power come to our village… I’m curious about that more than anything else.=
Hwanin thought for a while about the new option he came up with after seeing the more rational and intelligent giant, and the existing option he had been correcting since meeting Utaba, but eventually chose the existing option.
The new process is too long and cumbersome. I like something quick and simple.
“We came in to destroy this labyrinth.”
At that moment, a killing spree poured out from the chief, filling the log cabin several times larger than the sports complex.
Except for Bisang, the Queers were frightened and trembled, and Gaya and the members barely held on to their wobbly legs.
The only normal ones are Hwan-in, his women, and Bi-sang, who does not lose to anyone when it comes to being bold.
The death of the chief died down shortly after the story of the shaman, who was still alive.
=Have come in is past tense……. You mean you didn’t know we were living here.=
“The name people outside gave to this labyrinth is Giant Forest Labyrinth.”
=Isn’t that what you meant to know!=
Feeling deceived, the chief let out a deafening roar and poured out even stronger killing blows.
In the end, they couldn’t stand it, and Gaya and the crew collapsed to their knees, and Yurpa and the other Que also clung to the emergency with trembling legs.
At the reaction of Hwanin and his party, the shaman raised his straight eyebrows and bruised the chief.
= Chieftain. Calm down. Aren’t you ashamed to see calm little people?=
= Shaman! The giant forest doesn’t mean us! Even knowing that, they came in to destroy it…… !=
=It’s not too late to get angry even after hearing the spirit master’s story.=
=…… ! Turn off…….=
I want to get angry, but the shaman’s story has no gaps in the logic, so the chief tries to hide his reddened expression and closes his mouth tightly.
Hearing the chief’s actions, the sorcerer let out a small sigh and asked again.
=You have a mischievous side, Mr. Spirit. Before our chieftain’s heart explodes with rage, may I ask for a lengthy explanation?=
“I tried to explain, but the chieftain’s voice is so loud that it keeps cutting out.”
=I’m sorry about that!=
=Chief!=
Eventually, when the sorcerer shouted, the chieftain turned his head and showed an attitude like that of a child.
The sorcerer, who had been looking at the chief as if he could see through the blindfold, slightly bowed his head toward Hwanin and apologized.
= I apologize. I won’t stop talking about the spirit master now.=
“This labyrinth is different from other labyrinths. It is because the ecosystem, including all of you giants, is composed within the labyrinth.”
=I know that this place is called a labyrinth, but an ecosystem…… Does that mean other labyrinths aren’t like this?=
“All life living in the labyrinth is a heterogeneous, reversed entity created by the labyrinth. It can be said to be a labyrinth cleaner to indiscriminately attack things that enter the labyrinth. They are like biological weapons that can think, but cannot speak, and only have a grievous intent to kill the opponent.”
= I see……. Spirit Master thought that there would be giants like him here, not giants like us.=
When he nodded without answering, the shaman stared at the chief, who groaned at the gaze, then let out a sound of pain again before lowering his head.
It is to apologize for being angry blindly.
Hwanin nodded again to the apology and spread a wave of tranquility to soothe the spirits of the weak panicked party.
And he opened his mouth calmly, ignoring the two giants’ interest in the waves of tranquility.
“Here comes the conversation as you walk into the house. This place is known to those who are not us, and this labyrinth will be a very tasty place for each country.”
= It is a story that the troops we can’t handle will continue to come until we all die…….=
“At first, you will come with an insignificant force. We will defeat the invaders without difficulty. However, the country that has confirmed your danger will drastically increase the size and strength of the dispatch and send it back.”
= At that time, do we also become dangerous? Those who returned after seeing our skills are sending people who can kill us.=
When Hwanin nodded in agreement, the chieftain slightly showed his anger.
= Soul death. If what you’re saying is true, we don’t have a choice.=
“Although there will be a fork in the trivial choice, if you decide to die in this labyrinth even if you die, the outcome will be much the same.”
The chief stopped the sorcerer from saying anything and spoke to the Hwanin with wide eyes as if flames were raging.
=In my head, I admit that you are not mistaken about the spirit. But it’s hard for me to accept it with my heart. I also have a question.=
“…….”
= Ask. So, what is the real reason you came to visit us? And what proof does she have that everything you said is true? Are there really humans out there who will kill us all and destroy the village?=
“Actually, few people are strong enough to fight and defeat all of you. Of the tens of millions of Nionebres’ population, it’s probably not a handful. However, if a war breaks out instead of a battle, your greatest strength will turn into a weakness and hold you back.”
= Advantage turns into weakness?=
“That gigantic size. And the heart of the labyrinth embedded in your staff, Shaman.”
=…… !=
=…….=
“This labyrinth will make money in many ways, but that’s a story when your pride isn’t hurt.”
=We…… If you hold on, the angry men will secretly try to destroy it…….=
=We Grandas are not so dumb and stupid that we can’t even notice sneaky things!=
“If you put your heads together, the means and methods come out infinitely. There are not only warriors and sorcerers in the world, so those with excellent ability to hide themselves may come and hide in the ground like a silhouette mare.”
=…….=
“Silhouette Mares have virtually no intelligence. They are just lowly and lowly monsters who try to slaughter according to their instincts and get joy by harassing living creatures. That is why patterns are simple and incapable of complex actions, but people are different.”
=Big.=
“And you asked about strength. Let’s go outside.”
Hwanin jumped on the back of the emergency room and flew out of the chief’s log cabin. Then, the chief and the shaman chased away with a clear expression of surprise, perhaps not knowing that they would fly.
In front of the two giants, Hwanin took out five souls of deviant silhouette mares of intermediate level, united them, injected core power into them, turned them into soul explosion beads, and sent them flying towards a particularly thick giant tree in the distance.
Gugwagwagwang…… !!
A black hole-like explosion occurred at the waist of a giant tree over 30m thick, which was about to stick to the super, and the giant tree, with only the explosion part disappearing without a trace, collapsed to the west of the village with a roar.
The giants of the village stare at it with dazed faces.
Hwanin asked, looking back at the chief and the shaman who were hardened for other reasons.
“If these attacks are pouring in from nowhere, how can the chieftain and the shaman stop them?”
=…….=
=…….=
The two giants gulped at the sight of Hwanin flying on a small bird.
With an attack like that, you can somehow block it and endure it. If it’s ‘themselves’. The people of the village? I’m going to get caught up in that explosion and die.
If you pour something like that from the sky and run away, there’s no way to chase it. They can get out of the labyrinth, but they can’t because of their size.
Besides, the fact that he doesn’t show any signs of getting tired of using that attack means that that attack isn’t everything.
The faces of the chief and the shaman, who followed Hwanin back home and returned to the table, were dark.
“This is the answer to your last question. Even after meeting all of you, my opinion that the labyrinth must be destroyed has not changed.”
I thought he would get angry, but the chief only looked at himself with deepened eyes.
Thinking it was a positive response, Hwanin continued to open his mouth.
“If this place exists, it will only become a street of dispute among countries. It is a story that becomes the fire of war.”
The location is also a problem.
Greed for resources is everywhere.
This place is close to Yeongdo’s patrol area, Radsea’s area, and Flavius’ area, but it is not included in any area. It is in the buffer zone with Evil Faction.
That means that Beltical and Merianol can also move, so it’s literally an excuse to fight in four countries.
Of course, Hwanin doesn’t care about that.
In his mind, all he had to do was break the core that sprinkles that brilliant golden light and increase his core power. If these giants had an evil disposition, Hwanin would have killed them without hesitation, even using black jade.
The chief and the shaman seem to be tricky, but there’s nothing you can’t do if you work with your girlfriends.
If you have a lot of phase power, you will be more likely to show resistance to attacks with phase power. But that is also the case when the amount of remaining phase power is large after maintaining the body.
The phase power of the two giants that can be seen in his enhanced soul vision and normal soul vision was just like an unemployed person in terms of phase power and aura compared to their size.
If you attack with curses or whatever, you’ll be able to win without getting hurt.
But the reason they don’t is because the giants are good and their girlfriends are watching them.
Hwanin is moving towards justice in his own way.
When the story did not continue, the shaman asked with a sad but slightly angry expression.
=You can see that Master Soul doesn’t mean to kill us all. But if we destroy the labyrinth, we cannot survive. How should we think of this difference?=
The eyes of Hwanin, who had been waiting for them to bring up this topic first, flashed strongly.
=…….=
=…….=
=…….=
Gaya and the crew stared blankly at the broken giant tree in the village of giants, where the sense of distance would become strange.
= Manager…… It’s crazy to have friction with the priest.=
=…….=
= Captain. This fact…… Shouldn’t you inform your home country?=
= What are you talking about? Do you mean that you will break your promise with the priest?=
=Seongjenim’s personal strength is scary, but the bigger problem is when those giants enter the mountains of Yeongdo. See if the home country is unaware of this fact, and the opinions of the radicals are raised and move somewhat wildly. Our motherland faces a great disaster.=
=Brother, sister. Wait. Seongjenim told me not to talk about what I saw and heard here. Just report that you shouldn’t touch Seongje-nim because he’s a very scary and dangerous person…….=
= Ha…… Esira, I can’t imagine what the ministers of the judiciary would think if you said such a thing blindly without any explanation?
= Esira. There is a high possibility that Seongjenim will not forgive you for just saying that. If that’s the case, he’ll tell you everything first and then wait for his disposition…….=
Gaya was troubled as she listened to the members of the group.
‘I don’t think His Majesty the Holy Emperor was planning a giant army…… !’
Gaya held her forehead as she recalled the war of words between the Hwanin, the chief, and the shaman at the chief’s house.
The process of putting faith and trust into one’s remarks beyond words by demonstrating persuasive appeasement by demonstrating speech through psychological control and even showing appropriate demonstrations of force.
‘I have the status and position to provide you with a safe place to live. If you guys allow it, I’ll try to open the way.’
‘Soul death. Why do you care so much about us, the first time you’ve met today?’
‘This is the morality of a person.’
‘Is it your conscience trying to destroy this labyrinth? If you refuse, you will kill us.’
‘Killing it would be a labyrinth.’
‘………… Can we really trust that it guarantees our safety?’
‘I swear, if you guys will follow us kindly and graciously.’
‘…… I need an idea. We need to discuss…….’
‘Yes. Please review thoroughly, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask. I’ll wait.’
He did not dare to say ‘I’, but ‘we’, and adopted a word that left room for interpretation even in the oath.
Such a trick against a giant. The giants asked for time to think, but it must be time for the chieftain and the shaman to convince the other giants.
‘Ugh.’
Thanks to taking a bath, Gaya expressed a complicated, confused, and frustrated feeling by clutching her fair-haired blonde hair and sensitive ears at the same time.
As it is, the giants join Yeongdo, and the Holy Emperor is enough to be 6th grade? 7th grade? If you take that level of deep core power, you will be ruined if you keep your mouth shut for two months.
It would be natural for a fiancé to marry and break up, and he might even be expelled or expelled from the family.
In high-ranking aristocrats, the expulsion of a family means death. The reason Anne is still alive is because Her Highness Miriastum protected her.
As long as she was in the skirmishers, she was determined that death could come unexpectedly. That’s why she was able to lay down her life to save her crew members.
Still, it was a warrior’s death to protect his comrades and honor, not something disgraceful like death from an assassination following a broken marriage and expulsion of the family.
‘I’d rather go into exile in Yeongdo…….’
It’s a crazy idea, but I’m in a mental corner where I have to go to the point where I think that way for a moment…….
“You seem to be thinking a lot.”
…… She was so surprised that her heart jumped out of her mouth at the presence of Hwan-in, who spoke to her on the shoulder.
= Oh, oh, no. It’s not like that!=
Hwanin of hers, stuttering and greatly embarrassed, held Gaya’s shoulders firmly, stopped her movement, and whispered into her long, pointed, white ear, like Anne’s.
“It looked like he was driven into a corner to the point of thinking about exile. Wasn’t it?”
=…… !=
Does this person have excellent powers of observation and insight enough to even point out the heart…… !?
= Such a crazy idea…… I can’t lie that she didn’t. But that’s it.=
“I know. And I have no intention of seeing the lives of one of the few siblings of my girl fall into a pit of futility.”
=…….=
What… Wow, this heart pounding. Fear? Tension? If not…….
“If you promise me one thing, Gaya will definitely help you so that you don’t get into trouble.”
= What…… Is?=
“You can go back to Merianol and secretly send me two things. Of course, this promise will be kept secret until death. Oh, I will also inform you of the contents in advance so that you can ponder and think.”
One is a detailed report on Elwidris’ recent situation and dynamics.
Another is data on all groups of magicians in Merianol.
=…….=
Confusion and resignation began to appear on Gaya’s white and delicate face.
