483. Western Tehess 2
Western Tehess Special Forces ‘Admiral’ Garrison.
As it is located at the entrance of Tehes, the land of corruption and deterioration, it is a building built using materials with high poison resistance and decay resistance to withstand the miasma flowing from the inside beyond the forest.
“The atmosphere is really no joke…”
“It’s just like in a horror movie, everyone came to a place like this and died and only a kid like me survived.”
“Usually, the last person alive also dies in the cookie video at the end of the credits?”
“I don’t know. I leave right after the movie ends.”
“why? Isn’t the cookie video the flower of a movie?”
“Why are we having a movie discussion in a place like this?”
While the rest of the party was talking nonsense, Kang Seung-hyeon looked around the garrison.
‘Certainly I was hooked.’
Since the special forces base also serves as the entrance to the contaminated area, it is basically a place used as a place to make final preparations before entering the contaminated area or to meet with the party.
“What are you looking at, Mr. Kang?”
“Something that is not Mr. Kim Ho-jung.”
“to.”
So no matter when they come, there are always dimension movers, but the only people you see now are Admiral Knights.
The dimension movers who should have stayed in the original garrison left the contaminated area due to GGG’s aggro, and the few dimension movers who remained in the contaminated area must have entered Tehes.
In other words, the only dimension movers in the garrison are Kang Seung-hyun and his party.
“First, let’s go see Hus Iaref.”
“Didn’t he say he was the head of this order?”
“yes. He is one of the four civil servants in the Contaminated Area of the Azul Continent who are preventing the contaminated monsters from coming out.”
“To be a public servant in the Contaminated Zone…”
Kang Seung-hyun headed to the knight commander’s room where Huss Iarev was staying.
Then, as the soldiers, who had not paid attention to what Kang Seung-hyun and his party were doing before, approached the entrance to the knight commander’s room, they looked at Kang Seung-hyun with wary faces.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Because he is behaving strangely.”
“I just came to see you?”
“Normally, there is no reason to meet the knight commander.”
Each special unit guards the entrance to the Contaminated Zone, but does not investigate or monitor people entering and exiting the area.
“Because those guys’ role is to prevent the spread of contaminated monsters to general areas.”
People have unlimited entry.
So, an adventurer who wants to go to the contaminated area can ignore the knight commander and just go in.
“But he didn’t go to the contaminated area he was told to go, so he came to see the knight commander, so he was looking at him.”
“What, I think we’re doing something wrong again…” ”
Before, one of the dimension movers failed to kill the knight commander and bounced off, so he must have become more sensitive.”
“what? why?”
“Is there any reason why? Just an idiot who failed to kill him because he was curious about what would happen to the Templars if such an important person suddenly died.”
“Why the hell…”
As I repeat, there are many idiots among those who enjoy, and there are many criminals among those who visit the contaminated area.
“…Is Master Huss on business?”
The soldier guarding the entrance opened his mouth with a very nervous voice.
Even the soldiers know that the adventurers who come this far are not ordinary skilled people, so they have no choice but to be more nervous.
“Before entering Tehes, I came because I have something to tell you about a request for cooperation.”
“Request for cooperation…? ah!”
At that moment, the faces of the soldiers brightened and hurriedly stepped aside and moved away.
“I was waiting. Come on in.”
‘huh?’
It was a different reaction from Kang Seung-hyun’s idea.
Originally, an answer such as ‘Please wait a moment’ or ‘I will ask Mr. Huss and come back’ should have come back, but the situation was passed as if it had been promised in advance.
‘What, did you mistake me for someone else?’
A sane person here would correct misunderstandings and tell the truth.
“Then let’s go in.”
Whatever the reason, it didn’t matter as long as he could meet Hus Iaref, so Kang Seung-hyun went inside confidently without correcting the misunderstanding.
–
“The outside is nasty, but the inside is decent?”
“No matter how well the buildings here are built, they quickly fall into disrepair due to the negative smell of Tehes.”
“That’s why I gave up on design.”
Entering the living room, Kang Seung-hyun and his party sat down and waited for Huss Iarev to appear.
fluff.
Soon after, the door opened, and at first glance, a figure from the Templars who seemed to be a high-ranking person and his assistant entered the room.
“I’m Huss Iaref of the Admiral’s Knights.”
Huss Iaref.
Head of the Iarev family and leader of the Admiral Knights.
Although his body has become very weak after leading the Admiral Knights and fighting in Tehess for quite a while, he is respected by his subordinates because he remains strong and defends against monsters.
‘Your face resembles my son.’
It’s probably good information, but he’s the father of Richard Iarev, whom I met earlier in Hind Village.
“I’m Healer Kang Seung-hyun.”
“Kang Seung-hyun? That’s a name I’ve heard before.”
“Because I’m a bit famous. Shall we list the history?”
“Well, it’s not important to this matter, so let’s get right to the point.”
Huss Iaref sighed and continued.
“You have only one thing to do. To find someone missing in Tehes.”
“It’s like everything you do in a polluted area.”
“The important thing is that this must be done in complete secrecy.”
“huh? What are you talking about?”
“{Hyung Kim. In times like this, you have to pretend you know
even if you don’t know.
“okay.”
That conversation just made it clear.
The Admiral Knights are currently requesting cooperation from the outside for some secret mission, but they mistook it for Kang Seung-hyun and his party, who came to receive a cooperation request from the Admiral Knights.
‘The fact that it has to be kept a secret from the Adventurer’s Guild Headquarters means that it would be difficult for them to find out.’
Kang Seung-hyun leisurely sorted out the situation in his head and asked a question.
“How far do you know about this?”
“Some Admiral Knights, some Hind Village Adventurers Guild, some Husher family members. And you guys. It will be like this.”
“…the Hersher family?”
The adventurer’s guild is a secret from the head office, but it’s related to the adventurer’s guild branch in Hind Village and the Husher family.
‘Then there is only one answer.’
The moment he heard that, Seunghyun Kang smiled and finished his grasp of the situation.
widely!
“The person we need to find is Branch Manager Li Wen, right?”
The full story of the incident is unknown, but the Husher family and the Hind Village Adventurer’s Guild Admiral Knights. Looking at the intertwined nature of these three groups, no other conclusions can be drawn.
“If you came after hearing the explanation, the conversation would be quicker.”
Judging by the guy’s reaction, it seems to be the correct answer.
“what? Liwen is missing?”
“{Healer hyung… did you make it in the end?}” “
{It wasn’t me.}”
“{….}”
“{If it were me, I wouldn’t have ended up disappearing.}” “
{I believe it. Obviously, you are not the criminal.}”
Kang Seung-hyeon ignored Alec, who was trying to look good, and spoke to Huss Iaref.
“I honestly thought it was a joke. There’s no way that coward could go to the contaminated area on his own, right?”
“I’m not a strong person enough to come to the Polluted Zone. So we broke the principle of not blocking anyone who came and tried to send Liwen back, but…”
Huss Iaref muttered as he touched his forehead with an anguished look on his face.
“He defeated my men and disappeared into Tehes.”
“That’s Liwen, isn’t it Zap?”
“It’s a hundred percent.”
“There is nothing in the world to impersonate, Li Wen…”
“At first, we thought we were similar people, but after that, we received a call saying that Li Wen was actually missing, and we found out that it was him.”
“So what power did you use?”
“He used a powerful divine skill. As far as I know, Branch Manager Li Wen heard that he can’t use divine skills because his divine power is very low.”
“…!”
At that moment, the five people remembered the existence of the miraculous potion ‘Delphinidin’ that can bestow powerful divine power on others.
At the same time, Shin Yoo-jun, who is presumed to be the producer of Delphinidin, has a hideout in Hind Village.
‘It’s Shin Yu-jun.’
‘You’ve sold medicine to this baby!’
I don’t know why Liwen went to Tehes, but at least it’s clear that he has something to do with Moirai.
“So, what will happen if this incident becomes known to the Adventurers Guild?”
“Since a guy with a bad reputation abandoned his role as branch manager and disappeared, he will be judged to be suspended and step down from his position as branch manager. Liwen Husher.”
“Isn’t that a good thing then?”
Kim Ho-jeong shouted with a happy face.
“Then, since the Husher family will hold a needless grudge against us, we will work with the adventurer’s guild to appoint a much inferior human to the position of branch manager.”
“ah! That’s bad!”
Soon, along with Oh Man-sang, he burst into screaming.
“Summarizing, if this story is known, it means that not only Huss Iaref-nim but also Hind Village will be in trouble, right?
“okay. So, make sure to keep it a secret…”
Kang Seung-hyun smiled as if he had waited for the reaction and continued.
“Then let’s get to the real point now.”
“what?”
“It looks like you were really in a hurry. To say such an important story without recognizing the other person well…”
Not with a gentle smile, but with the trashy face you see when the fish you’re aiming for gets caught on the bait.
“Actually, we are just a party of ordinary adventurers who came to Tehes and wanted to go hunting. I didn’t know that branch manager Li Wen was missing.”
“What is that…”
“That story… If you tell it to others, everyone will really enjoy it. What do you think? Huss Iaref?”
A man who keeps his mouth shut all the time, but as soon as he finds out the opponent’s weakness, he immediately uses it as a threat.
This is Seunghyun Kang.
“…something you want.”
“I like that the story is fast.”
Huss Iarev realized that Kang Seung-hyeon was threatening him with some intention.
“Actually, the reason we came to Huss Iaref was because we wanted to get cooperation so that we could travel around Tehes comfortably without being disturbed.”
The contaminated zone is a lawless zone where any crime is OK, but there is one exception.
“Please issue the Knights Uniform and Knights Badge skill so that we can disguise ourselves as Admiral Knights.”
That’s when you didn’t meet the special forces.
