Episode 72
“They said it was filthy cold.”
The man raised his head after moving supplies from the supply warehouse located under the walls of Aldeon. At night in Berthas Plateau, there were no faraway corners, as if morning would never come.
A man with a ferocious look, with a sparse beard growing casually, a stubby nose with torn eyes, and dark nasolabial folds.
“older brother. It looks like that bastard is outside right now.”
“Are you sure?”
“yes. That bastard is on the air right now.”
And the man turned his head to Laifeng, leaving behind looking up at the top of the castle wall at the words of Laifeng, who immediately listened to him.
Ming Chen.
As the de facto head and president of Jeungsan Industries, he was directly connected to AC.
‘Even if it wasn’t for that dog-like bastard…’
Pudeuk!
Ming-Chen gnashed his teeth nervously, feeling the cold air scratching the tip of his nose.
I never thought that this would come.
The number of people in the workshop he runs is about 100, so he and Laifeng’s operators didn’t have to enter the capsule and access it.
The continuous PK suffered from Damian over the past few months not only exhausted all available manpower for Mingchen, but also resulted in lowering the level at which Jeungsan Industries could farm by more than two or three steps.
This happened as their level was reduced due to PK.
Besides, it was the worst of evils that ate away even a penny of gold except for one pair of panties. Even if it was a low-end assortment of equipment, the damage to the increased production business was not small.
‘I killed him. I’m going to take off everything attached to my body, cut it into pieces, and dip the salted fish in it…!!’
It could be said that this is the reason why Mingchen is glaring at the invisible Damian while exuding a sly life as if he were a crippled enemy of his previous life.
If it had not been for his obstruction, Jeungsan Shinup would have been making stable profits by now, and there would have been no reason for him to directly access the game and go through hardships like this.
“Where is the location? did you find it?”
“Looks like you’re going around the search route west of the fort. It’s a long oval-shaped return and the distance is about 10 kilometers round trip, so shouldn’t it take two hours?”
“Hmm… that’s right.”
Mingchen narrowed his eyes as Laifeng spoke while looking into Damian’s live broadcast.
It was a golden opportunity in many ways, both in terms of timing and environment.
Ming Chen had frequently been pressured by his superiors for not operating properly, and was aware to some extent that not only Jeung Production and New Business, but also his own head could be blown away.
It was a time when a decisive blow was needed.
It was also the fact that he participated in the defense of Aldeon Fortress with a minimum number of people instead of accompanying 100 workers at the workshop.
I was able to say that it was one of the methods I chose because I was well aware that I couldn’t catch Damian by just blindly pushing ahead.
Sensing that he needed something decisive to convince his superiors right now, Mingchen appealed for labor instead of combat power and was organized as a pioneering team for Aldeon Fortress.
It was because I had been watching for a long time for the timing to completely immerse Damian.
Bangple (= stream sniping)!
This was the reason Mingchen had Lai Feng spy on Damian’s broadcast in real time.
“Did you take care of what I said last time?”
“Yes bro.”
When Laifeng took something out of his inventory, Mingchen took it carefully and inspected it.
It was a round sphere wrapped in navy blue cloth.
Even though it was wrapped in cloth, it was not known what the contents were, but seeing Ming-Chen’s handling of it, it was known that it was very precious.
“If you make a mistake, you will all die together, so take good care of it. Unless you want to test the performance with your own body.”
“I wonder if there is any.”
So, Mingchen checked once again to see if the sphere was well wrapped in cloth, and then handed it to Laifeng, not forgetting to ask for trust.
Even though this item, which he prepared by disposing of part of the Jeungsan Industry, had a remarkable effect that there was no need for even the slightest doubt.
As he said, it was a kind of dangerous thing that they themselves would be harmed if not handled with care.
“Prepare. This time, we must do it without mistakes.”
flash!
Before long, Mingchen’s eyes shone sharply in the dark.

“I am now at the Aldeon Fortress search route. There are variations for each search route, but it can be considered within about 5 to 10 kilometers. Because mutant species appear in this Berthas Plateau, which is usually called the boundary, Aldeon Fortress has several search routes and is on constant alert. Those who will participate in the defense battle next year, please refer to it.”
Damian muttered lowly, stepping on the spot where the scouting party led by Giorno had passed.
It was a small voice that only the viewers could hear.
The entire search road is filled with black darkness and can only be faintly discerned by the moonlight.
At first glance, it was not easy to find because it remained vague enough to raise doubts about whether the road I was on was right, but Giorno was advancing quickly like a ghost on such a rough road, as if he were going in and out of his house.
The 6th reconnaissance group, including Damian, had to concentrate on raising their mobility to match Giorno’s speed.
Even though it was a fairly fast pace, it was almost flying speed, considering that the distance was rarely shortened.
“الباتاماها.”
Whoa!
Of course, even in the midst of this, Giorno confirmed and activated the magic circles of stealth and defense installed in the camp on the search route, while identifying and analyzing the damaged parts within the camp.
“Fortunately, the magic circle doesn’t appear to have been damaged. Seeing that the boundary magic circle was not released, it is highly likely that it was lost by wild animals. The camp repair is done by replenishing only the collapsed battery and then finishing it with shape-preserving magic.”
“all right.”
As Giorno said, the mage-type user waved his hand.
A simple telekinesis-level mana operation was sufficient.
Starting with the repair of the mage user’s position, two people each enter the front and the trenches on both sides to guard the sandbar.
‘It looks like he just joined the army again.’
And Damian couldn’t be cold, so he started to look for damage while heading to the trench located on the left side while wearing Hye-eun with cold air flowing through it.
I don’t know why it was attached, but it was because Damian agreed that personal feelings were not important in carrying out the mission.
“What are you going to do?”
“What?”
“If you are going to be vigilant, be vigilant. If you want to check the condition of the trench, check it.”
“follow your heart. Because I don’t care about anything.”
“aha. Then be vigilant. I’ll check the trenches.”
When Hye-eun answered with her arms crossed, Damian looked at the trench with a chin gesture.
It was a dug trench about two meters in diameter and depth.
A sheer mountain rises to the rear of the center that Giorno and Mage users are repairing, and as a result, the structure was created to naturally back the peak to block the monsters coming up from below.
The runes of the cornerstone engraved on the trench floor were designed so that even a soldier unfamiliar with magic could activate them if they operated according to the prescribed rules, and the magic was designed so that it was easy to hide the location from the enemy without having to take cover using surrounding features. .
If the Aldeon Fortress had been dealing with humans, not monsters, it was a condition blessed by nature that would have been possible.
“You know? If any of you are assigned to a reconnaissance team, the first thing you need to do to check the trenches is to activate the runes to see if the magic circle is properly activated. It’s something you can easily check on your own, so don’t panic if you encounter an uncooperative colleague. If a colleague dies in an unfortunate accident, you can easily repair it using the magic circle, so don’t forget to check the magic circle. If the magic circle is damaged, it is recommended to report it to the leader and get help from a wizard user or leave immediately.”
– Tangtang Horse Taenggu: Hahahahahaha
– Garlic Owls: I can’t stand the spin again hahahaha
– Swimming Pork Soup: No haha So why don’t we dance today hahaha
– lYagada 33 years l: Now~ let’s go~! Come on let’s go! Come on let’s go! Come on let’s go!
– Monomijjaengkwying: Let’s say the instructor can’t stand it
hahaha fight! fight! fight! fight! fight!
As Damian pointed his finger at the bottom of the trench, the switch’s chat window rose rapidly.
The trench repair mission belonging to the reconnaissance team was the second.
Viewers who have been watching Damian’s streams have called him the < Instructor of the 1st >, which meant that he was giving tips that could be obtained while playing AC.
In another sense, it was also a nickname given because Satan has shown a ruthless figure to the point of beating his knees.
It was the same even now.
Of course, viewers couldn’t know what the past was like with Hye-eun, but when you hear that Damian’s tone of talking about trench repair goes beyond cynical and even businesslike.
It wasn’t too difficult to infer that Damian’s tips were not benevolent.
“As I explained earlier, the monsters in Berthas Plateau have many mutants, so I explained that it is impossible to identify them, right? As far as I know, flying monsters have never appeared here, but there are monsters with similar abilities, so don’t be vigilant. If you’re unlucky, it’s filthy fast, but there are cases where filthy hard elite monsters appear.”
“what the. Anyone who hears it will know that you are someone who has participated in dozens of defensive battles.”
Hye-eun snorted as Damian talked while looking at the translucent camera.
It was the sound of Seonmudang catching people.
Of course, Hye-eun also didn’t know much about Aldeon Fortress and Berthas Plateau, but Damian, who clearly cut out the types of monsters, didn’t look good at all.
To Hye-eun, who already thought that there would be no difference in level between her and herself in her head, Damian was no different from a passing user or a criminal killing and killing.
Just as you cannot turn a pumpkin into a watermelon by drawing a line, Khao was the only one.
For Hye-eun, who inherited her position and class as a chevalier of Earthraia, a noble family, common sense values such as freedom and justice were more important than Damian’s situation or background.
‘transformation. human waste. killer. crazy guy Lovelace. Yang Achi Baby …! ‘
The reason she couldn’t understand Damian and didn’t even want to understand was right there.
To her, Kao was nothing more than a lower-class life at the bottom of which rehabilitation was impossible.
“Keep your head down!!!”
“…!”
That is, until a shrill cry passed by my ears.
