Episode 148
[Keeeeeeek…!!!]
Salamander’s scream was heard.
The guy who was flinching from the spears thrown by the hunters finally fell limp, as if he had lost all strength.
“Gotcha!!!”
“I’ll eat as much as I want tonight.”
“Let’s move quickly before the fire cooks our flesh!!”
They began dancing strangely around the fallen Salamander.
Their faces were painted with pure white powder and black patterns carved into them. I didn’t notice them while they were hunting, but upon closer inspection, they had a strange appearance.
▶ We encountered the Yoran clan.
▶ The tower requires you.
The moment he came down the hill and saw them, a light appeared in Namgung’s vision and a piece of parchment appeared.
The color of the wax sealing the parchment was purple.
▶ A hero level quest has been obtained.
As soon as I grabbed the parchment, the quest contained within began.
▶ The quest 『Subjugation of the Losers』 has been added.
▶ Defeat the 3 clans in the tower. They are all losers who failed in the fight for the throne. However, they have forgotten their position and are gaining strength by hunting monsters in the tower.
▶ When you defeat all three clans, the tower will give you power that no one else can have.
▶ The level of the quest may change depending on the number of defeaters.
“Hmm…”
Although it was one level lower than the legendary level quest, the heroic level quest was also not something that was easily found.
However, Namgung’s expression upon receiving the quest was not very surprised or happy.
‘It’s like a quest created by reading my thoughts.’
The moment he pledged to subdue them, the tower ordered their subjugation as if to prevent that.
‘The tower is testing me.’
Namgung threw away the parchment he was holding and walked slowly.
“…Who are you?!”
It was then.
A spear flew out like lightning.
Kwasik-!!!
The spear passed by him and got stuck in the floor. The pole trembled as if it couldn’t overcome the force, and then it stopped! It broke with a sound.
“Amazing? “He’s small in stature, but I think he’s stronger than Hojun.”
The wind pressure from the flying spear broke the secret, and Namgung spoke to the hunter standing in the lead.
‘Is this roughly the distance at which stealth can be detected?’
However, from the moment they spoke, Namgung had already begun to gauge their skills.
“human? “Why are humans here?”
When they saw Namgung’s appearance, they asked with puzzled expressions.
“I am a participant in the carnival. As a result of the pantheon, the gates of the tower were opened.”
“…Is that damn thing still being done? “What dimension are you in?”
“I don’t know how many dimensions there are, so I can’t answer which dimension we are in.”
“Hmph, is it that level of barbarism?”
“I was a little surprised to hear that you came to the tower even though the carnival wasn’t over yet… It seems like you came to prepare for the life of a slave in advance rather than expecting it.”
“Kkeukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…!!”
The rest of the people around burst into laughter at the words of the hunter who had just thrown the spear.
“well. I’m not interested in other people’s business. I just have to do my best where I live. The tower gave me a quest. “Put down the losers.”
“….”
“At first, I thought it was nonsense and threw the parchment away, but when I saw that he himself said that life in the tower was the life of a slave, I saw the answer.”
“what?”
“Does it seem like you like being a slave because you look so friendly?”
Kwaaaaang–!!!
At that moment, the spears of the remaining hunters flew in all at once.
“…!!”
However, As, summoned in front of Namgung, deflected their spears.
“Soul soldier…? Damn seven serpents… those goddamn revelators!!! Chan!! I’ll take care of that guy. “I will catch that guy and take him to Lathea!!”
The hunter who had thrown himself into the Salamander’s flames a moment ago pulled out his sword and shouted.
‘I guess I need to check.’
Judging from his actions, there was a high possibility that the author was a leader among the hunters, along with someone called Chan.
Skang-!!!!
The moment Namgung took his stance, a sharp energy emanated from his whole body.
Quaggggggggeuk…!!
Kagang! Kang!!
“Cuga! be careful!”
When the two people’s swords clashed, the man named Chan shouted. At his warning, Kuga hurriedly backed away.
A
sharp sound was heard and the space where Kuga was just twisted as if it were splitting apart.
[Hmm, are you a real fan?]
“I told you it wouldn’t work.”
[If that guy hadn’t shouted, he would have definitely succeeded. It’s a shame.]
Mu-myeong said, licking his lips.
“You bastard…! “You’re using tricks in a sacred duel!!”
Kuga shouted, wiping the blood from his cheek.
The nameless sword was so sharp that even though he clearly dodged it, it cut like his flesh.
“I didn’t specifically say I wanted to duel with you guys.”
Towards the shouting Kuga, Namgung responded rather calmly.
“Well, anyway… I’ll do it if you want. “I think it would be a good person to test what I got this time.”
“Experiment? Are you saying you’re going to use me as a test subject now? “It’s extremely arrogant to think that someone is under the seven snakes.”
“Don’t keep pretending you know anything about me. “Because I don’t know you guys.”
Kwaaaaang—!!!
At that moment, Kuga jumped towards Namgung.
Gulp –
Namgung took a sip of the liquid in the small vial in his arms.
Kudddud….
An intimidating force that was incomparable to just a moment ago exploded from his entire body.
His muscles swelled and the blood vessels on the back of his hand holding the sword swelled as if they were about to burst.
Wow…!!!!
Kuga, who was rushing towards him, urgently blocked the sword aimed at his head.
Even though the swords clashed with each other, a dull sound similar to that of being struck was heard rather than a light clanging sound.
[Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…?
An anonymous laugh was heard and Kuga’s body, which had been running towards him, rose into the air and fell to the ground.
Chan, who saw this, was shocked, and Kuga, who was attacked, looked confused.
All he could do was caress his flushed cheek and look at Namgoong looking down at him.
▶ There is 1 minute left to apply Monoa’s level 1 elixir.
▶ When the application time ends, all effects activated by the elixir disappear.
▶ Activated effect: Hyeolmaeksul – Strong
“It’s still difficult to get used to it.”
[It’s not perfect, but it’s probably close to 90% of the lecture level. It will feel different than before.]
“Hmm.”
Namgung felt as if he was savoring the energy flowing within his body along with the notification he heard.
[That wizard is quite useful. Not only have I completed the [Philosopher’s Stone], but I don’t even have any alchemy, so I can create something similar to [Leah’s Grace].]
Namgung nodded at the anonymous’s words.
The [Monoa’s Grade 1 Elixir] that he drank a little while ago was Den Howl’s result.
Jinwei’s alchemy was needed to create [Leah’s Grace], which can be said to be the highest level elixir.
However, he had instructed Den Howl to re
“Are you Lathea?”
Namgung looked at the woman on the podium and asked.
“It is true that the tower gave me a quest. “They told me to clean up not only you, but the other two clans as well.”
“Quests can be given to anyone. “It doesn’t mean that those who receive the quest will necessarily succeed.”
“okay. But the quest is triggered because you meet the minimum conditions to receive it.”
“…What do you want to say?”
“It means giving you a chance to choose.”
“select?”
“I wonder if I will catch you and get the reward… or, on the contrary, I will destroy this tower that gave you the quest.”
Latea laughed as if he was dumbfounded by his words.
“Tear down the tower? This was created by Sang. “A person who hasn’t even passed the carnival yet is talking nonsense.”
“Yes, I heard that all the clans here are the ones who finished the carnival. By the way.”
However, seeing her like that, Namgung instead asked coldly.
“I guess I’m the first person to come to the tower during the carnival?”
Crying –
The chain around his wrist trembled.
