Episode 435. How each one spends their vacation (2)
“Ohh. A bet?”
An interesting smile formed on Jinhyeok’s lips.
“It’s nothing special. Think of it as an event I’m providing for the unity of the Goinmul Corporation and the fun of the holiday. Oh! It’s possible.”
Hmm….
It makes me more suspicious when I say that.
There was no way that the head of the mercenary company would do such a thing to please others.
But whatever it is, you can decide after listening to the conditions.
“That would be… kind of fun. If it takes anything worth sweating for.”
“Whoops. Anyway, would you like me to make the bet less exciting?”
Rick waved his hand lightly into the air.
OK.
Tring!
[‘Rick Hennessy’s special quest has occurred.]
Description: The deceased corporation splits teams and competes against each other, and the winning team receives ‘Captain’s Hat’ (1 day) and ‘Brewhill Desert Salt’ (1 bottle). We will give you a reward.
[Captain’s Hat]
Obtainability: Administrator Only
Description: As long as life is not harmed, the wearer of this hat gains absolute command over the rest of his colleagues. However, when several people share ownership of the hat, the absoluteness of the command can be weakened.
[Salt of the Brewhill Desert]
Difficulty to obtain: Administrator Only
Description: By adding this salt to cooking, even the worst ingredients can be transformed into the best. Since it is the highest grade seasoning monopolized by the senior manager ‘Kundala’, it is almost impossible for even the gods to obtain this salt.
This… something quite interesting came out.
The captain’s hat was out of the question, but ‘Salt of Brewhill Desert’ was a lure that Jin-hyeok, a gourmet, could not help but be interested in.
Not only is it difficult to meet Kundala, who rarely shows up. It was because it was difficult to even figure out where the personal territory of the guy who was constantly moving was in the tower.
I tried almost all the ingredients that existed in the tower… but
one of the very few ingredients I couldn’t get my hands on was that salt.
“Can this be enough to capture the heart of player Kang Jin-hyuk?”
can you capture it?
How delicious it would be if you sprinkled it on rainbow shrimp…
Gulp!
My mouth watered down my throat just thinking about it.
“I’ll do it.”
There was no worry.
Jinhyuk grabbed Rick’s hand.
* * *
A big variable occurred in the peaceful vacation.
It was because the condition Rick suggested was too lethal.
[Team member selection time is 30 minutes.]
[The 30 minutes will be the key to victory, so each person should carefully choose the captain of both teams.]
[Remaining time: 0h: 29m: 59s]
The timer started running.
Everyone shook their heads in silence.
-Are you saying that as long as I have the captain’s hat, that damn old man will crawl under me?
Chun Yu-seong threw the medical book across the sandy beach.
The important thing now is not to study where the bones are attached and which antibiotics are appropriate for each inflammation.
Whether you give away a whole rib or die of inflammation, getting that hat in your hands is the priority.
– Restrain the contractor, have a meal with the contractor, sprinkle roses in a nice lodging where the sunset sets alone with the contractor… Kyaaaa!
Blood spurted from Alice’s nose as she was imagining it.
It was hard to endure the delusion that exceeded the limit.
– Is it your turn to give the owner a shot?
-Put the piranhas in the free pool…
-No. Wouldn’t it be better to nose-feed the mint chocolate that he likes so much?
-I don’t have enough time to pay back everything I’ve received so far in 24 hours.
– Everyone, be quiet. Head hurts.
The spirit beasts also had different minds.
What is certain is that this team competition has more valuable rewards than anything else so far.
The warm atmosphere is gone. Only those whose eyes were burning with greed and murder were left.
“First of all, we’ll have to split the team.”
Chun Yuseong, who organized his thoughts, slowly opened his mouth.
“Yes, it should. But, can this be a bet? Everyone will try to be on my side…”
Jinhyeok scratched his chin as if in trouble.
A team game has to be balanced to some extent. If one side has an overwhelming advantage, it cannot be called a game.
Even if it’s a swordsman with no budding hair.
Sweet Potato, who has been with Alice, the contractor, from the moment she was born, is on her side.
‘Of course, the spirit beasts and T-Bone, whom I have raised and cherished like my own children, will come to me. Blue Dragon also gave it a friendly name called Soft Hooded Cranes and even saved my life, but it would only hurt my mouth to say it.’
It was very obvious who Teresa and Wol-yeong would choose.
After all, the fight is over before it even begins.
however.
“huh?”
Jinhyuk felt something strange.
For some reason, no one was standing around.
Everyone huddled around Cheonyuseong as if they had promised.
Even the contracted Alice, the sweet potato, and the spirit beasts.
“What, what? Why is everyone there?”
Jinhyuk’s voice became urgent.
“This is public opinion. It would be better to say freedom fighters against tyranny…”
“No, how good I was, Kuma. The times we had together. Have you forgotten all of them already?”
“mosquito?”
Sweet Potato tilted her head.
“Don’t work in vain. Sweet Potato said she was tired of your abuse. Right? Kumaya? Yes, eat this and cheer up.”
Chun Yuseong passed the bluish magic stone to the mouth of the sweet potato.
Misleading! misread.
damn swordsman guy.
In the meantime, he even paid bribes.
“Gumaya. Are we going to fall apart because of that? Are we just that much?”
“mosquito?”
“Don’t look naive like you don’t know anything! Yes, magic stones. If you team up with me, I’ll buy you a set of snacks exclusively for ancient species that are hot on the coin exchange. You know what? A special meal made with magic stone sauce that’s full of nutrients?”
The time has come when you have to buy the very thing you laughed at, asking if there are hogu who buy something like this.
“Mo, Mosquito!”
Sweet potato quickly came to where Jinhyeok was.
At least one or one of them was barely captured.
But there is a very long way to go.
[The time limit has elapsed.]
After 30 minutes were filled, the team selection was finally completed.
Jinhyeok looked at the sweet potato and Wolyeong next to him.
I tried bribes, teasing and threatening, but in the end, this was the limit of the members I could gather.
Due to their respective interests and personal grudges, the “justice implementation” team led by Chun Yu-seong gained an overwhelming advantage.
On the other hand, the ‘I Hate You Again’ team led by Jinhyeok failed to live up to its name.
“Ha ha! It’s sad to see this. The three of us should do our best. If you can.”
Chun Yoo-seong exploded with light.
As soon as I was certain of victory, the dark memories inside me slowly bloomed.
“Ah! If there’s an underwater competition, you don’t have to worry about your clothes getting wet. I have clothes specially prepared for you.”
“Clothes? What clothes?”
Jin-hyeok asked, but Chun Yoo-seong only repeated what he had to say.
“You’ll soon have to wear it for 24 hours. It’s directly airlifted from France, so you don’t have to worry about the quality.”
“…!?”
creepy
Cold sweat ran down Jinhyuk’s back.
I’m not sure why.
However, I strongly felt that I should never lose this bet.
Soon the first game started.
[Beach volleyball]
It is literally a sport played on sandy beaches.
Usually, it is a game where good men and women burn their youth while laughing hahahaha, but here it is a little different.
Because everyone was risking their lives in the game.
Boooooung… Quaang!
I thought the sparks were flashing, but Chun Yoo-seong put the spike down.
fast. But…
Jinhyeok used the ‘Gamma Cheonryeongbo’ to get the ball at once.
Swoop.
“Haap!”
Wolyeong’s toss followed.
“Mooogiii!”
The tail of the sweet potato, which rotated 720 degrees in the air, exploded.
Because the rotation was properly loaded, the power was beyond imagination.
Right then.
“No way!”
Alice, who activated blood magic, took the ball.
Drops of blood spurted and the ball soared high into the sky.
“Stupid lady!”
“Leave it to me!”
Whoops!
The ‘Blessing of the Stars’ was condensed into the ball.
No, it’s not just a gathering level, it’s a level of capturing a huge meteor shower in one sphere.
Wait, is that a bit harsh?
Aside from receiving it, it was at the level of being completely evaporated just by being nearby.
“There are things I want to do as a captain.”
no i get it What if the captain kills the crew?
“I’m ready to do anything for that. Jinhyeok-ssi said the same. From now on, live for myself.”
That’s true, but that doesn’t mean you should let go of your mind.
I don’t know what kind of wish it was to stand on the same side as Elise.
“Teresa. Wait…”
I tried to stop it, but it was too late.
A dazzling light ran in a straight line.
Wow!
A huge golden cross appeared on the other side of the coat.
* * *
Same time.
On one side of the tower, another variable was taking place.
“I never thought I’d have to come to a place like this. It’s really filthy hot.”
Massive physique with bulging muscles.
The Lord of Thunder, Thor, holding Mjolnir, complained.
Then, the other deities next to him broke the silence and uttered one word at a time.
“It can’t be helped. We’re in the position to ask for a favor.”
Loki, the god of mischief.
“By the way, is this right here? I can’t see a single ant cub?”
Baldur, the god of light.
“I came exactly as you gave me the coordinates.”
Finally, there was Heimdall, the gatekeeper of Asgard.
After losing Yggdrasil by Olympus, the remnant forces floating on the stairs shook off the hellish pursuit and arrived here at ‘Oasis’.
Her body was exhausted from running down the stairs several times trying to avoid Hermes.
Even the rest of the deities of Ragnarok, who took on the role of bait, would be being chased at this moment, so I couldn’t help but feel more anxious.
But I’ve been through so much trouble.
No one was seen near the oasis.
“Could it be that you were tricked?”
“It can’t be. That person said it himself. There must be some circumstances. Or, if you make a little more fuss, he might react.”
The moment when Thor and Loki’s conversation continues one more time.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
The entire oasis vibrated violently.
