Chapter 79 Sand Off Forge (2)
Shurim, a large desert designated as one of Arcadia’s five forbidden regions.
As if the reputation was not a lie, the heat of the desert boiling with super-high heat was creating an environment so extreme that it was difficult to even breathe.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh …
Joong-shik almost becomes a zombie and follows Jae-young. However, unlike him, Jaeyoung’s condition was fine as usual.
[Stamina consumption increases rapidly due to the heat.]
[You have suffered from abnormal status exhaustion.]
[Recommended to rest in a cool place.]
“Wait… take a short break…
” At the message that he was caught, he sat down and exhaled heavily. His face was drenched in sweat, as if to draw all the moisture out of it.
“Are you exhausted already? Why is the cycle of exhaustion getting shorter and shorter?”
“…how on earth can Dex-hyung be so fine?”
“huh? me….?”
excruciatingly hot heat. That is why Jaeyoung prepared a defense plan through Tan early on.
[Enchantress, the witch of severe cold.] Jae-young
maintains her spiritual state by summoning a being specialized in ice properties. As the passive skill Enchantress had was activated, her body changed into a state in which she could not dare invade even the severe heat of Shurim.
[Passive skill frozen heart is activated.]
[Fire resistance increases significantly.]
“It’s okay because I have a skill related to fire resistance.”
Jaeyoung had no intention of explaining in detail what kind of skill Kangshin was. Jung-sik looked at him with envious eyes at his evasiveness.
“How on earth is your rank so high that you are perfectly fine? I came in here and got a fire resistance skill, but I’ve already risen to C rank! I will die anyway.”
Fire resistance that has already risen 3 levels beyond acquisition. Even so, this unreasonable heat pierced Jungshik’s feeble resistance and continued to torment him.
“Hyung… I’ve been wandering in the desert for three days already, isn’t this enough? There are dwarves living in this vast desert. No matter how you think about it, that’s too absurd.”
Jaeyoung and Jungshik have been scouring the desert for three days. He told him that he was looking for a dwarf for him, who lost his mind after suffering from the endless heat without knowing exactly what he was looking for, but after that, it was Jung-shik who persuaded Jae-young that it was false information.
“I don’t know where you got that information, but it could be wrong.”
“Oh, that won’t be it.”
“How the hell are you so sure of that?”
‘Cause there’s a guy that’s fucking around next to you. That’s the terrifying Great Demon King.
“How dare this damn human take my words lightly? uh? hey? What are you doing? Do you want to die? uh?”
I can’t even hear it, but Tan furiously goes mad next to the luncheon, saying that he will make the 5th tour of hell a full course. And next to him was El, who was firmly scratching at Tan.
“You damn bat! How long do we have to wander this desert! If you bring them, I’ll guide them to their destination right away! How can you turn the contractor around and around!”
L, who seems to be angry again, violently slashes Tan’s back with the palm of his hand. Tan frightenedly avoids her palm. While I was happily watching the two of them making a fuss, sand suddenly exploded from one side and something huge came out.
“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeg
“Kyaaaaaaagh!”
Two scorpions appeared splendidly with strange sounds. The huge and heavy claws of the scorpion, which seemed to be the size of a two-story house, were shining sharp, as if the body could be split in two just by brushing against it.
[Lv. 160 Huge desert scorpion]
A super powerful monster that is so enormous that it is difficult to guarantee victory even if it comes in groups at the level of current users. In addition, not one but two appeared at the same time, so if it was a party of general users, the angle of annihilation would be sharp.
“Ice blast.”
However, the opponent is Jae-young, who is already borrowing the power of an absurd level of strength. With his short start-up sound, the magic immediately turned the two giant scorpions into ice cubes.
blah blah.
Two nasty scorpions that appeared and never managed to wield their claws properly. It looked like a boss monster, but it turned into an unlucky extra that was completely frozen in one shot of ice magic.
“Take care of it.”
“yes.”
Jaeyoung yawned and spoke indifferently, as if he hadn’t experienced it once or twice. Joongsik slowly approached with a hammer and hit the scorpion that had become an ice statue.
Caang.
Clink.
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
The remains of the scorpion shattered like broken glass after his hammer made a clear sound and scattered across the sand. And several status messages appeared in front of Jungsik’s eyes.
[The combat contribution is low, so a penalty for the acquired experience is granted.]
[Level has risen.]
[Health and mana have been fully restored.]
[Status abnormal exhaustion has been lifted.]
[The title ‘Eat Freerider’ has been acquired. I did.]
The lunch with the sparkling effect of leveling up and fully recovering physical strength and mana. And this time, unlike before, he exclaimed when he saw that he even obtained the title.
“Wow, I also got the title.”
“okay? What title is it?”
“….a freerider who eats it raw…..”
“…you seem to keep getting more and more strange titles?”
Titles like Hellven Mine Slave No. 1 that aren’t something to show off and brag about. At Jaeyoung’s words, Joongsik immediately became depressed and said with a sullen look.
“That’s right…”
“Don’t worry about such strange things, just focus on leveling up. What level are you now? Are you over 80?”
“Um… no. I am 72 now.”
“Yeah… I just wanted to level up from 24 to 72 in 3 days. This is enough of an assault to the extent that it is safe to call it a bug. You know that too, right?”
“Yes… what…”
Raised the level by 48 in just three days. I grew up rapidly because of the scorpions that kept popping out unintentionally. couldn’t
“But don’t be too cocky. It’s because your current situation is good for you to become a puffed-up character with only a high level and no substance.”
“I know that too. That’s why I’m thinking of working hard on my abilities and skill proficiency.”
“Yeah, I’m glad then. By the way… I hope they give me clues sooner or later…”
While wandering around for 3 days, hunting scorpions and continuing to maintain his spirituality, the probability was pretty exhausted. Probability close to 900,000. However, because of getting information from El and repeating the battle while maintaining the spirit, the probability fell to 700,000 before he knew it.
-Probability: 782132
Now, Jaeyoung is starting to feel the need to save probability. However, there was still no trace of the dwarves hiding somewhere in the desert.
“Haa… Is there any way…”
Jaeyoung sighed as if in trouble. Tan flew in and asked with his eyes shining.
“How about pretending to be the master or a dwarf?”
“what….?”
“No, there is one who is secretly famous among the ones in the demon realm. He is quite dexterous with his hands, so he founded Hell Forge, which makes a lot of strange weapons with hellfire, and is a strange guy who is running a business against demons, but he is quite unique. He must be famous here, right?”
“….okay?”
At those words, Jaeyoung opened the Kangshin window again and looked for the person Tan was talking about. And he was able to find the Dwarf he was talking about among the long list of spiritual subjects.
[Head Breaker Tane.]
An entity whose prestige attached to its name exudes the smell of a madman. However, Jae-young said after carefully checking the skills and abilities he possessed in his previous life, perhaps a master commander overflowing with skills and talents.
“Well… that doesn’t sound like a bad way. What will change if you possess this child?”
“Ah, that’s why he said he’d tell you where he was based on his own if he called him to see how his subordinates were living after he passed away?”
“what….?”
In the end, the offer to let them know the base where their tribe lives in exchange for going out. Jaeyoung asked Tan, looking absurd at Tan’s words.
“Did you come to ask me about that again?”
“joy. Even though I’m a familiar who always has to stick with you, I’m still working hard while keeping an eye on the work of the demon world as much as my mind. Otherwise, the guys below will rebel against each other and fight for rank, making shit up.”
Still, Tan proudly says that he is doing what he has to do as a demon king. Jaeyoung nodded as if he understood that the suggestion was not bad.
“call. Change the spirit god target to that dwarf.”
“okay. Wait a minute…”
Tan muttered something and then waved his hand at Jaeyoung. And the cold aura of cold air escaping from his body. Then, immediately, I felt something like heavy steel welling up inside me.
[Cheuk ….. How long has it been since we’ve been outing …..]
Tain emits a gloomy aura while emitting a bizarre laugh from inside Jae-young’s body. Unlike those who usually silently lend their strength when performing a spiritual awakening, he kept talking to Jaeyoung, showing his presence without hesitation.
[This hot heat. strong sandstorm. It’s been a really long time. Compared to the hellfire, the heat is ridiculously weak, but…]
“I put aside unnecessary noise and brought it as promised, so will you guide me?”
[Ah… of course. Let’s see… Uh…? No, not here…?]
“Why? What is it?”
Tane shouted with a high-pitched voice as if in surprise. Jaeyoung asked with a frown on his intense thoughts that seemed to be deafening. Then, Tane said to him in a voice that sounded really embarrassed.
[Isn’t it right under you guys?]
“….what?”
[I’m sure. The energy you feel right below. It is the energy of Sand of Forge, the last ark of our Dwarf race,
which I devoted myself to and devoted myself to protecting
until I died . . However, even Jae-young stood in a daze, lost for words in absurdity at the fact that he had been shoveling without knowing it even though he had come all the way to the entrance.
[Kuhuhm….. I kept my promise?]
At the time when he was seriously thinking about whether or not to cancel the lecture, Thane cleared his throat as if he was embarrassed. At his words, Jaeyoung let out a deep sigh.
“Haa…then what should I do? Shall we dig in the sand until we find the entrance?”
A situation where you don’t know exactly how to get into the entrance. But Tane asked back as if what he meant.
[hmm? What do you mean? Digging out the sand?]
“No… it’s all buried in the sand, so of course I have to dig it out…”
[Why are you using such an ignorant method? There is an easier way.]
“An easier way…?”
Headbreaker Tane.
Hearing the easy way he spoke, Jaeyoung really had the urge to argue with him. However, he only let out a deep sigh and soon pulled out a huge hammer from somewhere and said,
“Hey Chinese. Stay by my side, don’t get caught up in it and stay far away.”
“…what the hell are you going to do with it? No, more than that, where the hell is that hammer…”
Uuuuuuu.
A huge hammer raised high into the sky. Strange energy began to gather in the hammer, and soon it condensed and began to release unprecedented power with a tremendous resonance.
“What the hell are you doing…?”
Joong-sik, startled, asked Jae-young urgently as if screaming. However, Jaeyoung said calmly with a really serious face.
“The easy way, not the ignorant way.”
“yes….?”
Joong-sik makes an absurd expression as if he doesn’t understand Jae-young’s words. But before he could say anything, Jaeyoung’s hammer hit the sand with a tremendous roar.
[Absolutely unbeatable super-powerful head smash.]
Kuwaaaang.
A hammer that was accurately hammered into the desert land covered with soft sand. With an incredibly heavy roar, the concentrated energy spread out to the sandy bottom.
“what….?”
Chinese food thought that the sand would scatter as if it were exploding with a huge shock wave. Strangely, however, the sandy bottom was still. As if it had absorbed all the shock. And all of a sudden, the sand around them began to be sucked in fiercely as if there was a hole somewhere.
Woo woo woo.
shoot aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
“Ughhhh! Dex tongue!”
Joong-sik and Jae-young were swept away by the sand that was sucked in somewhere as if there was a hole in a bathtub full of water. Shortly after their figures disappeared without a trace, the place returned to its original form.
It’s typical of the local Great Desert Shurim, full of bubbling sand and intense heat.
