How to Live as an Illegal Healer

125. Hive Mind 2

Pabababak!

A black arrow pierced his small body mercilessly. The Rare Scarab struggled desperately even after being hit by an arrow.

Great!

The arrow that pierced the body shattered the relic inside the body, and

Bzzzzzzz…!

Pew!

With a gruesome sound, the rare scarab’s body exploded. This is because the power to withstand the arrows disappeared as the artifact was destroyed.

Tuduk! Took!

Fragments of shattered artifacts bounced from the wreckage of the exploding scarab.

‘Ah, I didn’t mean to destroy the artifact.’

As such, it is difficult to attack small rare monsters like the ‘Black Sun Scarab’ by avoiding the relics in their bodies. Thanks to this, there were many adventurers who broke and ate artifacts while fighting.

‘This is why small monsters are annoying.’

Kang Seung-hyeon felt sorry for him and took the pieces of the artifact.

“I’ve dealt with the annoying watchman for now.”

Buses!

When the rare scarab died, the swarming swarm of scarabs began to disperse. It seems that the brainwashing was just released from the shock.

“Leader! Leader!”

“Are you alright, Le Peny?”

The three Red Roads ran towards Le Peny. Right now, Le Peny was in a state where she had received tremendous damage from attacking a rare monster with her bare body.

‘This person is not normal either.’

It’s a shame that Le Penny is a strong magic resister.

“I will treat you right away.”

“it’s okay.”

Le Peny, who was lying on the floor, stumbled and got up. He said, wiping the blood from his mouth with his hand.

“You can treat it later.”

Although it took a lot of damage from the Scarab Cannon, it wasn’t so much that I couldn’t move. I still had enough time to fight.

“It’s better to kill the bug child during that time.”

Now that the symbiote has awakened, there is no time to relax.

There was a high probability that Gordius would escape the cave if he left his hands unattended.

“Tracotti is pretty close here.”

When Gordius gets out of the cave, he will head to Trakoti first. Unless you know Kamar, a small town like Tracotti has no way to prevent an attack by a boss-level monster.

“If you leave it alone, it will cause a mess.”

In addition, Gordius is a monster specializing in mind control. If you are careful, a village may disappear in a day.

“We are fine too!”

“It hurts a bit, but…”

Nickel and Gascoigne also agreed with the captain.

[Fria’s bond pouch]

[Generates small health potion arrows.]

Pak!

Cucumber!

Seunghyun Kang fired a health arrow to restore Le Peny and Nickel Gascoigne’s health.

“I’ll do it after the proper treatment is over.”

“thank you!”

Batak, bruise, bruise!

Kang Seung-hyun and his party headed straight to the altar room.

They intended to attack Gordius as soon as they entered.

“Huh huh?”

“No symbiote!”

“What happened?”

But there was nothing on the altar. Only the empty cocoon where Gordius Larva slept was left.

“Where has this child gone?”

“Looking at the remaining shell, it must have hatched here.”

Kang Seung-hyeon inspected the cocoon of Gordius Larva. It was still squirming unpleasantly, but it was completely extinguished because the kernels had come out.

‘huh?’

In between, I found something shiny.

Like Larva’s cocoon, the texture was sticky, but it was an object with a strange luster.

[Observation Eye]

Kang Seung-hyun activated [Observation Eye].

Both eyes began to flash blue and display various information.

[Tears of Gordian]

[Gordian, who has grown into an adult, cries for the first and last time in his life when he comes out of his cocoon.] [Recovers all

mental power when used.]

[When used, the abnormal state is ‘deep hallucination’. ]

‘Was it a recovery item? Thinking of trying something like this.’

Gordian’s tears, instead of restoring all mental power, had the effect of putting them in a hallucinatory state.

At first glance, it seems like a good item, but hallucinations and illusions are mental abnormalities, so if you get them, your mental power will gradually go down.

‘The risk is as great as the performance is good. It’s only useful when mental power is very dangerous.’

It’s an item that doesn’t mean much to someone like a savage healer with the Chogokin Diamond Orihalcum mentality.

‘Still, should I take care of it for now?’

The moment Kang Seung-Hyun took Gordian’s tears,

V’ZZZZZZ!

cooong!

A swarm of scarabs suddenly appeared and charged at the stone pillar. The impact caused the pillar to fall backwards and hit the wall violently.

Koo Goo Goo!

At the same time, the ceiling at the entrance collapsed. In the aftermath, the only exit to the outside was lost.

“Aaaaaaa!”

“The entrance is blocked by a rock!”

Nickel and Gascoigne shouted, looking like they were about to cry. The only entrance was gone, so there was no way out or in.

“…This room itself was a trap.”

“trap?”

“He had no intention of fighting us from the beginning.”

Right now, Kang Seung-hyun and his party are unable to control Gordianus Larva’s mind because of Le Peny’s magical resistance. Of course, it is not easy to make a host.

“Even symbiotes can’t beat us if they’re parasitized by a weak monster like Scarab.”

“yes. Because without a proper host, they cannot exert their power.”

So Gordius unleashed the Rare Scarab to pass the time. While Kang Seung-hyeon and his party were fighting the Scarab Cannon, the guy ran away to find a new host.

“Then what he’s aiming for…!”

Ordinary citizens of the Azul continent can become incredibly strong by borrowing the power of symbiotes. And Gordius can manipulate a host with low sanity at will.

“These are the members in the hideout!”

“The infirmary is in danger!”

In other words, its purpose was to cause an [excessive loss of mental power] and use the fallen human as a host to manipulate it.

And the infirmary was littered with humans that could be used as hosts.

“It’s a bonus to keep it here so it doesn’t interfere with our host search.”

“Shiih haircut! You bastard bug!”

However, Gordius overlooked one thing.

Wow!

Enraged, Le Penny smashes the rock at the entrance with her fist, and

sorghum!

[Harpoon Arrow★]

Pabababak!

Kang Seung-hyeon pulled the trigger and destroyed all the rock fragments pouring down from the ceiling.

shred! shred! shred!

“You’re going to grab my ankle with something like this?”

“I wonder if I would have known if I had put the skill in the room.”

It was that this party was stronger than Gordius thought.

“Even if there is a skill or something, just explode it with magic repulsion.”

“That’s right.”

The two made a new entrance in the blink of an eye.

“Anyway, it’s really amazing…”

“As expected, the strongest captain! The strongest healer!”

“I will follow you for the rest of my life!”

The trio of ordinary Red Roads who saw it couldn’t hide their surprise.

“Admiration comes later.”

If Kang Seung-hyun’s idea is correct, Gordian’s destination now is an infirmary full of patients.

“The infirmary will be a piece of shit by now.”

The patients, as well as the general members taking care of the patients, do not have the mental strength to withstand the mind control, let alone the ability to defeat Gordius.

“Let’s go quickly!”

“Damn it, you went in vain in the end!”

Kang Seung-hyun and his party rushed to the Red Road infirmary.

-“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”

“

As expected, everyone got hit.”

It was the members of the Red Road who were mentally controlled by Gordius who greeted Kang Seung-hyun and his party after escaping from the secret room.

“The kids have gone crazy!”

“Everyone, wake up!”

“Dimes! Hundred! Denari! Qter!”

Rosen sobbed while calling the members by name. However, there is no way that a person who has been brainwashed to come to his senses just because his name is called.

[Eye of Observation]

Kang Seung-Hyun activated [Eye of Observation] while drinking a stamina potion.

[Brainwashing]

[I was attacked by a powerful mind control attack.]

[I am being controlled by Gordian Larva.]

“There is no host among them.”

It’s not that you’re parasitized by a symbiote, but when you’re mentally controlled, your physical abilities don’t go up.

You can tell just by looking at the scarab.

“Then I can take it off easily.”

“what?”

“I’ll take the right side. Mr. Le Peny, take the left.”

“Hey, those guys aren’t monsters, are they my subordinates?”

Le Peny shouted with a puzzled face.

Due to Le Peny’s personality, who valued his comrades unnecessarily, even if he was brainwashed, he could not attack his subordinates.

“It’s to hit me and bring me to my senses.”

“You just said you would get rid of it!”

“Leader!”

“Leave this to us!”

At that time, nickel and gascoin took the lead.

“Never mind, go first!”

“you!”

Nickel and Gascoin, who came forward, said with firm faces.

“It hurts to attack your teammates.”

“We’re weak anyway, so it won’t hurt much if we get hit.”

“And I really wanted to do these lines.”

Saying so, the two rushed towards their comrades. In fact, the brainwashed members and the Nickel & Gascoin combination were too weak to do much damage to each other.

“Then I’ll keep the kids at bay.”

Rosent also captured the brainwashed members.

“If someone with no ability like me goes, it will only get in the way.”

“That’s right.”

“I’ll leave the boss monster to you two.”

“All right.”

“Everyone be careful.”

Kang Seung-hyun and Le Peny passed the three of them.

Some of the members tried to chase the two, but

“I can’t go!”

“If you twist it, come to your senses!”

I couldn’t move forward because of the leech combination.

– Contusion! bruise! bruise!

‘As expected, he doesn’t take anyone as a host.’

Seunghyun Kang thought as he ran to the infirmary.

The Red Road punks I had just met were relatively ordinary members, just like Gascoyne and Rosent.

‘The symbiote gets stronger the stronger the host.’

If it is going to parasitize on a human anyway, the answer is to make a host that is even slightly stronger.

‘Right now Mr. Kim Ho-jeong can’t move because of the penalty. So even parasitism won’t be of much use.’

So except Kim Ho-jung, who is sleeping coolly.

The Balik couple and Rudy are of course excluded because their stats are inferior to that of the Red Lord.

‘Then all that’s left… are the search team members.’

The Red Road Search Team is the second strongest member of the Red Road after Le Peny.

Even so, compared to a dimension mover, it’s not even the blood of a bird, but

‘it’s a different story if a symbiote is a parasite.’

jump!

The two arrived at the Red Road Infirmary. All well-made beds and chairs were overturned, and all shelves and cabinets were smashed.

‘And the strongest among the members of the Red Road Exploration Team is…’

A man was standing in the center of the infirmary.

‘It was a black shirt.’

The only member of the exploration team who damaged Kim Ho-jung during the fight earlier. It was a Red Road member in a black shirt.

“You are a step late. That friend has already been beaten by Gordian Larva.”

The black shirt had its red hair turned white due to the influence of the Gordian parasite, and the wound on its shoulder had been completely restored.

“Why is it that guy…!”

“Le Peny, prepare your mind this time.”

Unlike the members I just met, that guy is a host who gained powerful powers under the influence of the symbiote.

In fact, it was the same as the boss monster in this dungeon.

“Don’t say bullshit about not being able to hit me because I’m a colleague.”

“I got it.”

Le Peni was reluctant, but this time he couldn’t just let it go.

“…Wait, Captain.”

Then the black shirt opened its mouth.
