Chapter 72 – 071 Village – Outskirts of Leheel
Susa, whose sleepy eyes suddenly became clear, screamed at the top of her voice.
= Put out the bonfire! Husseok and the porters get on the wagon and look out for four weeks!! Elles! Find the Ktachinan warrior and tell him to be careful!=
At Susa’s shout, the porters and escorts started to move in a hurry, and Isilite, Brillit, and Dinte quickly woke up the sleeping Que and climbed on board.
The commotion spread to the high-class wagons along the roadside as well.
In the midst of the commotion, Ktachinan from the Awick family came running, clutching the sword of the sword belt.
=Susa-sama, what’s going on?=
Susa climbed onto the frame of the wagon at some point and looked at Hwanin, who was looking around, and said.
= There may be an attack. No, the deformed species will attack soon. Ctachinan-nim, you better be prepared.=
=Then wouldn’t it be better to leave right away?=
Ktachinan also looked at Hwanin and asked, but Susa shook his head to show his disapproval.
=Maybe the labyrinth overflow is more extensive than we expected. In that case…….=
=…… Heterogeneous species may attack you on the road ahead. In the worst case, you may be attacked back and forth.=
=Yes. Just in case you don’t know, I would like to suggest gathering together rather than lined up like this. As you can see, low and dense shrubbery can block one direction.=
=Okay.=
Hwanin, who turned his gaze away from Ctachinan, who was half-running back to the ranks, looked down and called for emergency food to wake him up.
“Emergency food, wake up. Emergency food.”
Coo, coo? Coo~
“It’s surveillance. The enemy is approaching.”
… Quet!
Maybe it was because I ate a full meal and slept soundly, or the emergency food that flew up into the sky after flapping its wings to see if it had been digested…….
Quet! Quack! Quee~!
He pointed in one direction and started crying hard.
Susa, learning from the trip that it was a sign of the enemy approaching, screamed at the top of her voice.
=Namseojook-!! In the southwest, the monster’s wet fish-!!=
Hee hee hee-!
Que~.
Coo woo
Que Que Quet-
In the meantime, five high-class wagons gathered near Susa’s wagon.
The escorts escorting each carriage also gather around Ktachinan with a buzz. 17 of them.
The owners of the wagons did not show their appearance, but Ctachinan shouted at the escorts who were cooperative and began to encourage the escorts of each wagon, as if they had at least instructed them to cooperate.
=I am Ktachinan escorting the direct descendant of Awik 3rd class baron! Currently, there are overflowing heterogeneous species in this area due to an overflow phenomenon! An unknown deformed species is attacking here! First of all, we must work together to solve this crisis…… !=
‘The other side will take care of itself.’
First of all, Hwanin applied the lowest-level program to the three Que including Isilite, Brillit, and Dinte.
Quee~!
Coo~!
It wasn’t just Kue who kicked the ground with his feet and cried for a long time that was overflowing with strength.
The three of them feel the change in their bodies and look around, then look in that direction when they hear Hwanin’s voice.
“I have blessed Que who is riding with you. The number of enemies coming in is not small, so be careful.”
= Ah! Go, thank you.=
=Thank you.=
Unlike Dinte and Brillit, who answered in surprise, Isilite was shocked at the size of the power wriggling inside her body.
‘Isn’t this worse than receiving an enhanced scroll or an occultist’s enhanced secret technique?!’
As a mercenary, Isilite, who had participated in faction wars between small towns several times, had the experience of receiving the strengthening effect of a strengthening mystic several times.
That’s why I saw through the power of this reinforcing effect more accurately than Brillitt and Dinte.
‘Even if I can’t do it, I’ll strengthen it to level 4, maybe level 5!’
It’s usually a light greatsword, but now I can’t feel the weight itself.
My arms and legs are overflowing with strength, so I feel like I can easily shoot 10m just by running in place.
‘What the hell is that person?’
Isilite stared intently at the Hwanin standing tall on the frame of the carriage.
He has mastered the three major defensive techniques to an insane level, so let’s say that aside from the physical technique, he also did an unknown explosive attack with a magic sword.
Is it possible to strengthen a 5th grade enhancement magician?
= No. Said to be a blessing …… Maybe.=
Couldn’t she have succeeded in drawing the absurd odds of winning?
With that kind of ability, even a 6th grade professional might be able to deal with it.
Even if she only becomes a 7th-class careerist, she is placed on an equal footing with upper-middle-class high-ranking people. She was told that if she was in the 8th class, she would even be equal to the baron, the owner of the city.
At first glance, it was said that he paid 10 gold coins for a month of training for an 8th grade professional.
It is as difficult as picking a star in the sky for a young man like himself, who has no money or background, to be chosen as a disciple of such top-notch warriors, and even if he is selected, he is only a nominal disciple and is treated no different than a servant or slave.
Then…….
‘If I behave well, I might be your first disciple.’
The first meeting with her was like shit, but the owner (scheduled), the soul, was not without recognition. Because she took the person she was trying to steal and gave her money.
He seemed to have personality and character, and his attitude toward that scornful merchant was dignified.
‘There is a possibility!’
Isilite’s enthusiasm had hit rock bottom like a farmer who had lost his entire fortune in a natural disaster just a moment ago.
In fact, she even declared that she would voluntarily become dependent because she couldn’t afford to lose all her fortune, so she would do more than that, not less.
But at this moment, her enthusiasm soared as if it would pierce the sky.
Even if she can’t learn all of her master’s defensive skills, if she properly learns at least one of the three skills, evasion, block, and counterattack, she can become a town or city-level military commander.
20 years of service? After all, the disciple must serve under the shadow of the master for the rest of his life.
Without the teacher’s permission, he cannot even stand on his own.
The owner has a good personality, so if he serves faithfully…… !
= Enemy appeared! Hill west of the Shrubs!!=
=Small and medium-sized compound monsters are released!!=
=Watch the wagon!!=
Wah—suddenly brought to her senses by the burst of her roar, Isilite turned her head to the west of the low shrubbery, clutching the hilt of her greatsword with a brittle grip.
In the darkness of the faint moonlight, dozens of pairs of glowing eyes were rapidly descending the hill.
‘I have to appeal to my master that I’m useful against them!’
Just as she drew in her breath to the point where her chest swelled greatly, Ctachinan rode up on a brown Que and shouted, looking at Brillit and Isilite.
=There are two warriors! The swarm of monsters are too united! We need to disperse with a cavalry charge! Are you thinking of using your strength together!?=
= There is!!=
Isilite shouted without hesitation, but Brillit gave her eyes to her susa and accepted her consent before she nodded.
= Then go! I’ll take the center! Left and right please!=
Leaving behind the escorts forming a square around the wagon, the three of them spurred on Que’s side and charged towards the wave-like swarm of demon beasts.
=Got it!!=
Ctachinan collided with the group of demon beasts at the forefront with the brown Que who had been with him for a long time.
Brown Que bites and throws the beast with its beak or tramples it with its legs as strong as a log, while Ctachinan assimilates to its movements and cuts off the beast’s neck or backbone with its black sword.
‘I’m glad. There are a lot of them, but they are all 2nd or 3rd class squirrels!’
Thinking that this would be enough to defeat the monsters with almost no damage, Ctachinan was taken aback by Isilite and Brillit’s charge that followed.
Kwagwagwang!!
With the sound of something exploding, the magic beasts that collided with them flew away.
= Aaaaa!!=
= Haaaaa!!=
Moreover, the female warrior holding a greatsword started to blow the beasts by swinging a greatsword like a hammer, and the female warrior holding a spear was punching holes in the beasts’ heads with a creepy sound.
‘What happened? The amount of aura was level 3 and 4!’
It was the same when I first saw it, but when I borrowed them, the amount of aura was far less than my own. But what does she mean by that power that is on a level similar to hers?
Even more surprising was the straw Que they were riding.
Every time Straw Que, who competes with meekness, fights aggressively against the Witchbeast, the flesh and bones are dented, and the Witchbeast’s limbs and waist are broken and rolled apart from the kick.
‘What…… It’s not the gray Kudo for the Royal Guard.’
I was surprised for a while. No matter what, having a great co-worker is the same as having a solid backup.
= Break through! Follow me!!=
Ctachinan, who saw a group of monsters gathering around him like a cloud, activates the magic of the black sword to strengthen his cutting power, swinging his sword without hesitation and breaking through the group of monsters.
Occasionally using the low-flying glide of the brown Cue, Ctachinan, who had nearly broken through the beasts, opened his mouth again at the sight of two straw Cue flying over his head flapping their wings.
‘What is this…… A crazy leap, right?! It’s definitely the color of straw!’
Ctachinan, Isilite, and Brillit drove Que and bypassed the swarm of demonic beasts as they saw them, striking their flanks once again.
As it pierces through the group with the momentum of its speed, dozens of monsters fly away as if hit by a car, and the group’s fighting ability plummets.
= You have to beat the beasts as much as possible to reduce the burden on the base!!=
At the moment when the main camp and the monsters clashed for the last time, Ctachinan, who once again broke through between the monsters and divided the group into two, was about to jump from Maak Kue.
= Unleash the spell!=
= Northeast! Northeast of the Shrubs!!=
= A group of monsters appeared again!! =
= It’s not a witch! It’s a heterogeneous species!!=
‘Even to the rear!’
Witchbeasts are a bit stronger than beasts, and their leather is just tough. But this species is different. In the case of level 3, ordinary people’s weapons are almost ineffective.
Intellect is no different from that of a beast, so it may not have been diversion, but the situation is not good.
Ctachinan’s gaze turned to 17 people who were fighting over 40 monsters. All of them are people who escort people of high status, so they have enough skills, but…….
‘There’s not enough staff!’
… Kkkk-…… !
… Karrrr…… !!
… Kyaaaaa…… !
Ctachinan’s impatience intensified at the noise coming from the rear.
Can not help it. There will be casualties, but escort them too. They will understand as much as it is a sacrifice to protect the escort target!
=There are sword warriors and spear warriors! We go back and take care of the newly appeared monsters!=
Ctachinan shouted loudly at Isilite and Brillit, who attacked the rear of the Demonic Beasts, and ordered the brown Que to jump and jump onto a carriage.
When I glanced back, only a female warrior with a great sword came running.
The spearman glanced at this side and put all his energy into dealing with the beast with an expression that there was no problem.
‘…….’
I want to push, but I don’t have time.
After leaping again with a fluttering, powerful flapping of wings, Ctachinan witnessed an unbelievable sight while gliding to the back of the base.
A black warrior with a black spear was blocking dozens of heteromorphic hordes alone in a place far from the wagon.
‘…… No, not a warrior! Ordinary people?!’
Thanks to his awakening, he has better night vision than normal people, and was shocked to realize that the active warrior, like a wolf running into a flock of sheep with a black spear, did not have an aura around his body.
A normal person without a job would have a hard time even piercing the leather of Heohyungjong?!
And when I ordered Que to jump and slide again after landing on the roof of the wagon and watched his movements…….
=Beautiful=
Ctachinan was shocked by a lightning strike on his head.
Move the three heteromorphic species that attack you at once by the safest and most effective route and evade your body.
He pierced and wielded a black spear while dodging, moving around with his weapon as an axis, avoiding enemy attacks, counterattacking, counterattacking, blocking and blocking at the same time, attacking at the same time.
Literally, the manifestation of open-fighting unity.
The dream he, of course, his teacher had pursued all his life, was unfolding before his eyes.
Quet~!
Hearing the shock of Kung and Aejo’s landing and the sound of crying, Ctachinan, who came to his senses, shouted loudly.
=Awyck’s Ktachinan!! I’ll join you!!=
= Master! Isilite goes!=
Hwanin heard two people shouting from behind, but he didn’t care and concentrated on knocking out the heterogeneous species that were attacking him from all sides one by one.
Heohyungjong’s soul level is lower-intermediate.
Hwanin, who renewed the spirit of the Spirit with the soul of the murdered heterogeneous species, was cutting through the heterogeneous hordes that surged like a wall with his surging strength and stamina.
Of course, it wasn’t recklessly running into dozens of heteromorphic herds.
No matter how many there are, no more than five will attack at the same time.
If we divide the level of attack here, there are two crabs that actively want to brush their teeth, one crab that sneakily bites their arms or legs, and two crabs that try to bite right away if they see an opening.
The rest are just spinning around waiting for their turn to attack.
Placing two soul shields made from heterogeneous souls behind your back effectively only blocks 2-3 simultaneous attacks.
Also, the attack of three beasts on Hwanin, or an individual attack that is not a cooperative attack, cannot be included in the axis of attack.
Here, even the black spear with tremendous cutting power.
Crack!
Kkeaeng!
If you stab a visible weakness or an invisible gap and swing it, the cut or stabbed heteromorph will scream and fall out unconditionally.
Another deformed species takes its place, but is too busy catching it to be thrown back by Hwanin’s attack.
Heterogeneous species are stimulated by the movements and movements of other heteromorphic species as they die, and only attack him to tear the human in front of them to death.
Thanks to the addition of Ctachinan and Isilite, Hwanin, who was more relaxed, switched from blocking, avoiding, and counterattacking to a one-sided attack, stabbing, slashing, and slashing heterogeneous species at random.
‘…… I shouldn’t have come to help.’
He was Ctachinan’s impression of looking sideways at Hwanin, who knocks down two when he kills one.
She understood why the spear warrior hadn’t joined us with a face that didn’t matter.
The raid was over as quickly as it had been abruptly.
With the corpses of more than 100 four-legged beasts scattered around the wagons gathered together, the aftermath of the battle began.
Each of the injured escorts took out herbs, healing agents, or potions to heal their wounds…….
=Don’t even look at anything else! Soul over there…… Only the corpse of the beast that Hwanin-nim slaughtered was loaded onto the wagon!=
Susa called three porters, Dinte and Hughes, sorted out the corpses of the witches, and loaded them onto the wagon.
=Throw this away, load that, load this, load that there.=
= Mr. Susa. How to do this?=
=The ones Hwanin-nim killed had only one wound or were barely visible! Load only that!=
=Yes!=
=The monster may attack more! Move quickly!=
=…….=
Isilite took turns looking at the porters and Susa, then glanced at Hwanin, who was gazing at the other side of the darkness with her arms crossed, and then quietly put down her greatsword and started helping her with her work.
=Hey, can I move this?=
=…… Well? Exactly. If possible, move the things under your feet.=
=This too?=
=That too.=
Thanks to the participation of Isilite, who has strong power, the work speed was accelerated, and after a while, Susa, who had loaded the luggage compartment full of monster corpses, immediately shouted for departure.
=Hwanin-nim, let’s get on! Let’s go!=
When Hwanin gets on the passenger seat and the wagon starts moving, the wagons that have been prepared first start moving along with the wagon.
Even those who were hiding in the carriage and those who fought the beast outside the carriage knew what Hwanin had done.
He didn’t say anything, but he seemed to acknowledge Hwanin as the strongest person in the procession.
