Myst, Might, Mayhem Chapter 273

<Episode 74 Underground Gold Jade (4)>

The office of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the National Assembly.

The expression of Yookcheonho Im Gyu-wol who was quietly examining the hastily edited Geumok Jeondo hardened.

“this….”

The guard Mo Xian who was elegantly drinking tea and looking at him asked in confusion.

“Why but?”

“Commissioner Wei. “There is a problem.”

“problem?

“I revised evangelism too hastily….”

“Don’t hesitate and speak quickly.”

“If you follow the twist the path leads to a special area of ​​the Infinite Geumok.”

“Special exclusion zone? “Could it be…are you talking about the 120th district?”

It was Mukseom who served as the head of the Saseonbu before becoming a military officer.

Therefore he knew more about the underground gold jade than most other goldsmiths.

The invincible gold jade itself was called the worst gold jade but among them the ones that even those with long experience had to pay attention to were the gold jade after the 1120th generation.

Management of the latter part of the 120th division was so difficult that there were even rules that had to be absolutely followed.

“Bring evangelism and see.”

“…yes.”

Accordingly Lim Gyu-wol of the Yukcheonho went to him with a message.

Guard Muk-seom’s gaze which was looking at the revised Jeondo stopped somewhere in the Jeondo.

“this….”

The same words that Lim Gyu-wol had said came out of his mouth.

Only a part of the Invincible Geumok was drawn but the path of evangelism continued into the latter part of the 120th generation which should never be entered.

If we go to this evangelism path…

‘One hundred and twenty-six times…’

He knows that if he is a hundred and twenty-sixteen gold jade

“Are the remnants of the Old Blood Religion still alive?”

“…That’s right.”

“Huh.”

In response to Lim Gyu-wol’s answer guard Muk-seom clicked his tongue.

“What a tough life.”

“Yes… I can’t understand either.”

“That is beyond my understanding.”

“…What the guard said is correct. It has been almost 30 years since food service was stopped but it is said that you can still hear the sound of something scratching when you get close to the place. So we took measures to prevent anyone from going around that area but I wonder how humans can survive for decades without eating anything…”

“If that question could have been solved it would have been solved by our superiors a long time ago.”

Geumok Prisoner No. 126.

I don’t know his exact name but he is Guhyeolgyo Yukhyeolseong whose identity is unknown.

No one knows when he was imprisoned in the golden prison.

He was the oldest of the prisoners imprisoned in the underground prison and was known as one of the three to be guarded against.

Unlike ordinary prisoners this one hundred and twenty-sixth prisoner was classified as an extremely dangerous person even though he was imprisoned to the point where it was difficult to even eat food.

It was because of the prisoner’s strange talent.

It is said that his talent was to captivate people’s minds just by stimulating their sight and hearing and that he suffered many losses because of this.

However in addition to this talent there was a strange nickname that identified this inmate.

That nickname was none other than Immortality.

The higher-ups found the incomprehensible vitality of prisoner number 126 interesting and attempted to investigate but found nothing.

The superiors who decided that they could not do anything about the cruelty of the hundred and sixteen times that she kept her mouth shut despite her torture and interrogation gave an unofficial order to break her will.

It was none other than cutting off food rations to prevent prisoners from eating.

One of the biggest needs of humans is food.

She thought that if she could block this kind of desire she would be able to break her stubbornness and will but something that no one expected happened.

Even though she did not consume anything she did not starve to death.

She was still alive.

The higher-ups were surprised by this fact and blocked the information so that it would not be known anywhere.

There were only a very small number of people in the imperial palace who knew this amazing fact and among the Geumuiui Commission only those who had been in charge of the Saseonbu.

Even now the members of the general military training department knew that the minimum amount of food was still provided to prisoner No. 126.

The above warrior Muksum opened her mouth in a serious voice as she watched the evangelism.

“You’re in trouble” she said. It doesn’t matter if you approach the 129th Golden Jade you are inviting death but if you even approach the 126th Golden Jade…”

Before he could finish speaking Lim Gyu-wol of the Sixth Heavenly Order stood up and spoke.

“Commissioner. I’ll go down there myself. Anyway if it’s not Bae Ji-seok I can resolve it on my own.”

“…no. The cadets aren’t the problem. “If something goes wrong you can’t do anything about it.”

With those words Guard Muksum stood up.

* * *

Somewhere inside the Infinite Geum-ok.

Cadet Zhou Yunxiang who was looking in all directions tore a tiny bit of his sleeve and attached it to the torch.

Then she burned and smoke rose.

‘ah….’

As I held my breath the smoke headed towards the right side of the four passages.

Zhou Yunxiang looked at the passage on the right.

The only possibility was the direction in which the smoke was flowing.

So he moved there.

As he went his shoes became completely tattered so he had no choice but to take off his other shoe as well.

If it weren’t for the innate Qi the soles of my feet would have been damaged on the wet and cold cave floor.

The car was moving forward aimlessly like that.

-Help me! Please save me.

Zhou Yunxiang listened to the voice of salvation coming from somewhere.

Has someone fallen into the same trap as you?

The only person worthy of that was Yeom-gyeong who was assigned to the inner part of the Infinite Golden Jade with him.

In response Zhou Yunxiang ran towards the place where the sound was coming from.

There was a sunken area in the floor about two feet in diameter.

-Help me! please! please!

A sound was coming from underneath.

Zhou Yunxiang immediately held out a torch towards that place.

Underneath the deep floor submerged in the flickering light of the torch I saw a human figure hanging helplessly her thighs pierced by a solid-looking rope.

At this Joo Yun-hyang shouted at the figure.

“Is it a prayer?”

Inyoung did not respond to Joo Woon-hyang’s shout.

Zhou Yunxiang frowned.

Is she not hearing her own voice?

While I was wondering I soon heard a voice coming from the floor.

-Help me. please!

Is this guy right?

When I heard her voice she was almost pleading.

It seemed like she had to be saved first.

Jaune Hyang who was wondering what to do about this looked around shining a torch below her.

However when I looked down under the light of the torch there was a skeleton that looked like a human body aside from the one hanging on a rope.

It seemed like someone had fallen here and died.

‘Did you fail to dispose of the body?’

She said she inspects the machinery from time to time but it looks like she hasn’t checked everything.

But I saw something sticking out on the other side of the rope.

I didn’t know because it was covered in the shadow of the torch.

‘Sword soldier?’

An unusually shaped sword was stuck in the wall.

It was in the form of a sword being thrown straight at the smooth blade. There was also something like a rope tied to that sword.

It looked like he could reach down and pull it right out.

‘I could use that.’

After making a decision Ji-un Hyang moved to the other side and reached under him.

It seemed like she couldn’t reach it but she quickly grabbed the sword stuck to the wall.

She was about to pull the tooth out and it was at that very moment.

-Excited!

My heart was beating violently and my natural energy was shaking.

“Huh.”

At the same time Zhou Yunxiang’s whole body convulsed as he held onto the sword.

She couldn’t control her trembling and heard numerous noises turning her mind upside down.

[Kill! Kill me!]

[Why are you doing this?]

[Please save me. please…..]

It wasn’t a single voice.

The number of voices gradually increases seemingly reaching dozens or hundreds.

Meanwhile Zhou Yunxiang’s eyes were shaking.

I saw someone I thought was Yeomgyeong hanging below but there was no one there.

It was as if I had seen something in vain.

I’m embarrassed by this

[Give me your body!]

[asleep! asleep!]

‘Ugh!’

The noises that sent shivers down my spine made me even more confused.

All of the noises were full of sorrow and resentment making them extremely irritable and they were quickly eating away at Zhou Yunxiang’s mind and body.

‘You have to take your hands off.’

Zhou Yunxiang tried to remove his hand from his sword.

However the sword did not fall from his palm as if it had been absorbed.

Rather he was holding a sword and the blade was pulled out from the wall.

If the blade had been stuck while the body was reduced to a skeleton it should have already rusted but surprisingly it was still intact and even glowed with sword light.

‘Let go! Let go…’

I picked it up and tried with all my might to pry the sword out of his hand.

But it was no use.

Although the Xuan Tianjin Qi in the mid-range battle was fiercely fighting against this strange energy the screams and vengeful spirit contained in this unknown sword were too strong.

Eventually Zhu Yunxiang’s hand holding the sword stopped trembling.

Then Zhou Yunxiang raised his head and a strange light appeared in his eyes.

-Sigh!

Jaune Hyang’s eyes changed and he walked towards somewhere holding a sword in one hand and a torch in one hand.

As I was going there there were warning signs written in red on both walls.

[Entry within three days is prohibited]

Thirty-seven people are prohibited from entering.

It was forbidden to approach within 30 paces.

However Zhou Yunxiang ignored this warning and walked forward.

The moment I stepped on the thirty paces a chilling wind began to blow within Geumok.

-Roaring!

The torch flickered violently.

The shadow that touched the light was rippling like waves.

Even though a strange phenomenon was happening Zhou Yunxiang seemed not to mind at all and walked forward.

And he stood in front of Geumok.

[百二十九]

One hundred and twenty-nine.

It was engraved on the thick bars of the gold jade.

It was the room in Geumok’s list that had a warning written on it not to approach.

At that time Zhou Yunxiang picked up his sword and swung it towards the bars.

-Okay!

A sharp sword wrapped around the body of the sword and the thick iron bar was cut away with a clanging sound.

When Zhou Yunxiang kicked it the cut off part of the bar fell into the gold jade.

-thud!

Zhou Yunxiang went in without hesitation.

In the flickering light of the torch I saw something strangely shaped leaning against the wall.

The corners of Zhou Yunxiang’s mouth turned up slyly as he looked at this.

* * *

“hmm?”

Mok Gyeong-un who passed the engine-type trap section with ease tilted his head and looked somewhere.

Originally I was going to just pass by because it had nothing to do with the plan but a gold mine was open.

This was engraved above the open entrance to the gold jade.

[百二十六]

One hundred and twenty-six times.

Seeing this Mo Qingyun’s mind recalled what his subordinate Meng Wuyue had said.

[The gold jade with the Holy Spirit Pillar is numbered one hundred and thirty. However I’m just saying this just in case you don’t know so it would be a good idea to keep this in mind as well.]

[What?]

[It would be best to avoid the gold jade numbered 126 and the gold jade numbered 129 as much as possible.]

[Why?]

In response to his question Mong Wuyak told him about the warning he had seen.

He probably said that the hundred and twenty-sixth golden jade is where the nine blood education and blood fortresses are imprisoned.

It was said that there was a warning posted there saying that you must not approach within ten paces and that even if you approach to receive food you must cover your eyes and ears.

‘Eyes and ears?’

Why did they give such a warning?

I was a little curious for a moment but I quickly lost interest because it had nothing to do with my goal.

There is no need to enter the golden prison number 126.

however

‘Did the author open it?’

The golden door that should have been tightly closed was left open.

And someone went into the gold house and was doing something.

That someone was none other than a student named Yeomgyeong a disciple of the Hwasan Sect.

I wondered what on earth he was going to do but Yeom-gyeong was pulling something out of someone’s fully restrained body whose eyes were covered with a blindfold and whose mouth was gagged.

-Park!

The moment you pick them out one by one

-Gooooooo!

The energy of the bound person began to rapidly soar.

Mok Kyung-un looked at this with a strange look in his eyes.

That’s right in the eyes of Mok Gyeong-un who opened his ghost eyes energy was seen in concrete form and it had a quality that had never been seen before.

-Pachik! Pachichichik!

It was like a blue lightning bolt spreading out in a heavy rain.
