Chapter 294 Going on a Search
Ha-Wol’s Question.
Even as the sun goes down, Morto does not return to the village.
Of course Morto is outside right now.
By now, you must be wandering around looking for a wish-granting pond you don’t know where it is.
I chewed my tongue.
‘For some reason, he said he was going to find a pond outside and put on a grim expression.’
At the time, I didn’t know why NPCs were so condescending.
Besides, raccoons are nocturnal, after all.
I thought that the guy who climbed the tower couldn’t be afraid of walking around at night.
‘Is there a rule not to wander around at night?’
Why didn’t the stupid guy say something like this again?
I was a bit dumbfounded, but I had to tell you this information.
Those who were frantic to find the culprit also gave up on moving at night.
There must be a reason.
“Are you sure you know why I shouldn’t go out at night?”
“You haven’t answered my question yet.”
Ha-wol also does not pass smoothly.
We have something we want from each other.
And there is a certainty that each other knows the answer they want.
Although she is more predictive than certainty.
Okay, let’s throw in some ground rice.
“Would you believe me if I answered that question? I could lie about Morto.”
“You already saw it.”
“Didn’t you tell me where you saw it and in what form?”
Her eyebrows narrow at my answer.
You may recognize that you saw Morto, but only you know if he is dead or alive.
Tok. Ha-wol, lightly brushing off the ashes, looks at me.
“Funny. If you’re going to lie, do it. Raccoons can detect lies. If you lived as long as I did…”
Suaaaaaa.
For a moment, I had the illusion of being sucked into her eyes.
“Maybe you can look inside.”
[SS-class power, mind-seeing eyes are staring at you.]
[‘Mental Protection (S)’ resists!]
[Resistance failed!]
[SS-class power star-watching eyes stare at you! ]
[Most of the opponent’s field of view is blocked.]
Messages popping up in succession.
I know this feeling.
I felt it for a moment when I met the wise John Trailer.
His power is the SSS-level Sage’s Eye.
Although the level and resolution were different from that, it was an authority that was strangely similar.
Even back then, my authority reacted, though it was a little milder than it is now.
Does a similar type of authority work in this way?
what happened
Because that doesn’t matter now.
Looking at Ha-wol, who was visibly surprised, he crumpled his face.
“You know that this is rude, right?”
“That’s it.”
Deokchun also cried softly.
Are you trying to read other people’s minds?
I read the information with a similar feeling, so it was ambiguous to go out shamelessly, but I can’t help but feel bad.
“I never thought he would have an insight-type authority.
“Thank you for the compliment, but it seems like an apology is the order.”
“Yes. sorry. Excuse me.”
“I accept your apology. Shouldn’t you answer me instead?”
If you try and succeed, you don’t know, but if you fail, you have to pay the price.
Since it didn’t cause any direct harm, I thought I’d end it by getting the information I wanted.
In fact, I’m not going to force you to ask for more.
Ha-wol, who pressed his temple with his fingertips, nodded.
“I see. It was me who did the handiwork. I was surprised though. I thought there would be other powers besides insight-type powers.”
“You saw it there.”
I said it covered most of my view, but I didn’t say all of it.
He must have noticed that he had multiple powers.
“yes. His name was Cho Hyun-soo, then Evileye, then Petit Gongdu. It was quite dizzy. Even the familiar faces were bizarre. From golden to silver to something odd. It even has the power to twist and hide the inside. Ugh, confused.”
…Not an authority. You saw it right.
I wanted to say something, but I kept my mouth shut because it seemed like it would do more harm than good.
Maybe it’s because the types of powers are different, but it’s not like I’m seeing information, but it’s like seeing images.
I never thought my shy friends would be so helpful no matter where I put them.
Nyanpun Lick Hair Loss Man! thank you!
[Mental Protection (S) Lv.7]
[Skill level up!]
[Mental Protection (S) Lv.8]
I swallowed tears inside and waited for her to come to her senses.
Whoa.
A leaf blown by her breath landed in front of me.
-A
leaf turned into a teacup.
“It’s a white wooden car. It boosts your concentration. It’s also a good car.”
Likewise, she made a teacup in front of her and swallowed the tea.
Why don’t you go out at night.
I thought it wouldn’t be a simple story.
Is it for security?
-Clap clap
Howell clapped his hands.
“You man.”
At her call, a small and cute raccoon beast appeared from nowhere.
A person who appeared on the spot like a mirage.
I had no idea what was hiding until now.
Black eyes twinkle.
“I watch it so that no one eavesdrops around.”
“Only believe in you!”
The guy who disappears like a shot at Hawol’s command.
I was dumbfounded for a moment and looked at the back.
“What is it?”
“The raccoon tribe is the best solver. Now, I think security should be this. You asked about the night curfew. In order to do that, I have no choice but to talk about a mad night.”
Ha-wol, who sat with her legs crossed casually, started talking.
* * *
Dawn.
The dawn in Daerimwon, located in the forest, was darker than other places, but the faint light seen through the leaves signaled that the sun was rising.
Leaves with morning dew.
Bondi should have dried up the heat announcing the morning.
-Koong Kung -Goo
-goo-goo
“Let’s go! Move, slugs!”
“Comfort Behiga’s soul!”
“I want to pluck out all the fangs of those noisy tiger cubs.”
“Shut up the bird head!”
“Do not be angry. You have to control your heart to avoid a tragedy.”
It was wiped out by search parties flocking from each tribe.
A total of eight tribes.
The assembly point is the eastern entrance.
Sixty-four of them.
Sixty-five if you include me.
This is even though only eight people were recruited from each tribe.
The forest surrounding Daerimwon is extensive. As it is an open field, it is equipped with an ecosystem.
I didn’t know if someone would say that there were less than 100 people, but all of them were talented people who rose to the top.
As much as the passion for finding the culprit increased, the selected people gathered, so even looking at their power alone, they were at an incredible level.
Even the representatives of each tribe there.
There was a hint of the horse’s will to complete the search and securing of the culprit on the search site.
“This is the level of going to war.”
“I can’t say no.”
Ha-wol, who was next to him, helped with his muttering.
It’s only here, but the work to find the culprit must have started inside the village.
It’s only possible that the culprit is outside the forest, but it’s not impossible that he’s inside the village.
Maybe that’s what you really need to worry about.
Even so, the human body is one. It was impossible to check both sides at the same time, so the answer is to move where I can lead as much as possible.
“I’m sure everyone has heard the basics, right?”
Gray, the head of the armed tow tribe, opened his mouth.
He likes to step out in moderation and is calm, so Gray took on the role of moderator most of the time.
“I don’t want to work cooperatively. Daelimwon respects the uniqueness of each tribe.”
Depending on what kind of person you are, the search method is very different.
It was more efficient to let them move freely than to force them together.
Everyone is nodding their heads knowing that.
“Each representative goes to the scene accompanied by two searchers to accompany them. The rest of the search crew, working as a team or individually, will find the traces of the suspicious person on their own. Signal if you are in danger.”
I fiddled with the paid whistle.
It had a string that could be worn around the neck, and it was about the size of two fingers.
If it blows, you can hear it even tens of kilometers away.
If you are a beast with good ears, you will notice it even from a distance.
This is good.
“I believe that the personnel distribution has already been completed. Then let’s start right away. Is there a representative who opposes it?”
Gray looked around, and again there was no objection.
There is no need to say that the operation has begun.
Because the moment the affirmation of silence was recognized, everyone moved.
“Look for it with the pride of the tiger tribe, fools!”
“If you search, you’re a tow tribe.”
“If you wake up, I’ll go get you. You know that the natives have good ears, right?”
“Four-legged beasts. That I could fly in the sky.”
“How can you see the asshole covered by the tree?”
It’s nice to see them running out like they’re competing.
I’m telling you to do it yourself.
“Let us go too.”
I also started moving with the representative and the search crew.
All of them had excellent physical skills, so the speed of movement was fast.
I ran through the forest, jumped over the shrubbery, and the tree obscurely blocked the path.
“Ooh!”
Taiga, the representative of the Baron, smashed it with his torso.
Representatives covering their mouths.
“It sounds like fun.”
“And creepy.”
“Ah, what a beast.”
It’s been a while since I came here, but to the beast people, the beastly behavior seems to be something similar to shame.
It is the essence and culture at the same time, it is also history, so it cannot be eliminated, but the feeling that it should not be completely beast.
Hippotus was similar. Because he was well dressed and went around hiding his wild nature.
Well, I flinched a little when I asked if Morto was going to bite too.
At first, I thought it was courtesy among beastmen, but now it’s different.
There’s a story Hawol told me last night.
Night travel prohibited.
The tragedy of fratricide.
The disaster caused by the wish-granting pond.
‘Fantastic night.’
Acknowledge your inner wildness and accept the truth of the jungle.
I don’t know whose wish it was.
A mystery still unsolved.
That night when someone made a wish. Unlike now, those who didn’t get along well and didn’t live together invaded each other’s territory and blood soaked the earth.
There was no such thing as carnivores overpowering herbivores.
If they were literally beasts, they were beastmen, and they could surpass their opponents with their individual abilities.
Ten days starting from that night.
Thirty-five percent of the prisoners died.
…That’s what Hawol said.
A world that was already destroyed. Even with the same prisoners, this four months happened, so I don’t have to tell you how it ended.
You don’t even have to look further, you know just by looking at the tower.
I don’t know why those who did that don’t fight now or why they don’t give up and use the pond.
Hawol didn’t even talk about that part.
It would be nice if there was an opportunity to ask separately later.
-Taat
kicked off a rock that came up to his waist and jumped forward.
approaching the intro.
I see familiar shapes of rocks and trees.
“We are almost there.”
Pausing for a moment, I raised my hand.
Those who slow down all at once.
It is natural, as if it had been put together in advance.
“Follow me carefully as it may damage the site.”
“Hmm, isn’t everything messed up already? Everyone knows. You came late.”
“Still, shouldn’t we find at least some traces! haha!”
When Seo Liang, the head of the Myoin tribe, wags his tail and says, Chicken Man scolds him.
“Okay. I like it because it’s positive. Our chicken head.”
“Let’s go! Let’s go quickly!”
When even Liana, the representative of the Toin tribe, was sent, the movement began again.
The scene getting closer little by little.
Black hardened bloodstains visible intermittently.
The smell of blood that stings the nose.
And…..
-Routing
“Gelik!”
The place where Behiga died.
Added corpse of one Tow Clan.
