Chapter 150
Episode 150
“Hmm….”
Namgung searched the body of the fallen basilisk. Unfortunately, there was no reward box in sight.
“Still, I’m glad. “It looks like this is coming out.”
There was no separate reward box like at the carnival, but when I searched the corpse, I was able to find a small bead inside.
The brown bead was the [Earth Dragon Jewel] that Namgung was well aware of.
However, the difference from catching the serpent was not just the reward box.
“I can’t see the item description.”
Strangely enough, the items he obtained at the carnival had numbering and descriptions, but he couldn’t see anything in the [Earth Dragon’s Jewel] he had just obtained.
It was not that the description field was blank, but that the description field itself was missing.
Just as ordinary objects other than carnival reward items did not have numbering, the jewels did not appear at all, just like tools in reality.
‘In fact, this feels more realistic.’
Inside the tower, these supernatural tools were not artificially created, but existed as real tools.
Maybe that’s why only one subdragon can live together at the carnival.
Click –
Fortunately, the gem fit perfectly into the socket of the bracelet, and it seemed to have the effect of the gem as it emits a soft light.
‘If I remember correctly, this is probably the effect of equipping the Earth Dragon Jewel.’
Namgung glanced at the jewels embedded in the bracelet and slowly placed his hands on the floor.
Kugggggg…!!!
Then the bracelet started to glow and a thick rock wall appeared in front of him.
It looked like a simple barrier, but the wall quickly shattered into pieces and began to spin and fly around him.
Kwakang…!!
When he raised his hand, flying rock fragments rained down like missiles toward the place.
Quagga River…!
A loud explosion like a bombing was heard.
However, Namgung did not stop there and this time he entered the swamp. Then, sign fish appeared inside.
Ugh… Ugh….
Six sea fish were summoned, and rock fragments hovered around as if to protect them.
“Is it the power to manipulate rocks? Are you able to attack from a distance? “I feel like my position is diminishing.”
Gyeongin said while looking at the rock fragments.
“Nothing compares to your arrows. Moreover, it is better to use it as a barrier to protect the fish rather than for attack. “Of all the monsters I have to deal with in the future, none of them will die from being hit by a rock.”
“Isn’t it so powerful that it can be called a rock?”
Gyeong-in smiled bitterly as he looked at the floor, which was a mess as if a meteor had fallen.
“…They were attacking the wrong place, not between the eyebrows.”
“You can hit there too, but to truly catch a basilisk, you have to hit the hemorrhoids above the anus where the tail is connected. “There is a part in it that corresponds to evil.”
“Over the anus? “I didn’t know it had such a weakness while hunting it until now…”
Kuga looked surprised at Namgung’s words. However, Namgoong was even more incomprehensible about his reaction.
“Then how did you guys catch it? “Did you catch the basilisk by aiming just between the eyes?”
“yes.”
“Huh…”
The scales between the eyebrows were weaker than other parts, but that was because the basilisk itself was very strong.
If you compare the hardness of the weakest part, it will not be much different from the scales of other subdragons.
‘It won’t be something that can be easily destroyed…’
When I think back to when I was hunting Salamanders, it didn’t seem impossible because each individual had outstanding abilities, but the lack of information about the Basilisk was surprising.
‘Rather, you didn’t intend to explore because you were strong?’
Namgung looked at Kuga.
“I didn’t know there was such a weakness… but I think Lathea will like it if I tell her. “I guess that’s okay, right?”
“of course. It doesn’t matter to me. But I’m even more surprised that you, who finished the carnival, have no information about the Basilisk.”
“Of all the subdragons, our clan is the least compatible. “Elemental attacks are easy, but poison attacks are fatal to us.”
“Ah… I see.”
Namgung nodded as if he understood.
“Even a little bit of basilisk poison kills you instantly. A basilisk invaded the village once before, and it was truly terrifying because all the advanced hunters were away. “A lot of people died.”
“Hmm… Is it easy for an advanced hunter to catch a basilisk? “At that time, it seemed like the senior hunter in the barracks was your colleague.”
“It’s not easy even if you become a senior. “If you can kill the other subdragons by yourself, you will pass the test, but the basilisk is at a different level.”
“okay?”
“huh. Since that day, the elders have been here guarding the basilisk to prevent it from escaping the swamp. But to think that it has this kind of weakness… even Flon would be surprised. “Giggle.”
Cougar seemed to be in a good mood to show off, so he walked over the basilisk’s body with light steps and started walking down the path hidden in the bushes.
“for a moment.”
“huh?”
Namgung said while looking at his back.
“Even advanced hunters can’t kill a basilisk on their own?”
“huh? “Oh, that’s it…”
Kuga couldn’t hide his expression of regret.
“They told me to prove my skills and then made me do something that even they couldn’t do. How should I take this? “Is it correct to say that he was trying to kill me, not test me?”
Chin –
Namgung said as he placed his hand on Kuga’s head. “No,
that
’s…”
“Ahhhh!!”
Kuga frowned as he tightened his fingers.
In fact, in terms of ability, Kuga would also have the power to not lose to Namgung.
Even though he is a low-level person, he still has the ability to hunt salamanders.
Nevertheless, Kuga could not shake off Namgung’s hand.
This is because the image of overpowering the Basilisk was ingrained in my mind, and my body stiffened, thinking that Namgung was on the same level as a high-level hunter.
“Why don’t you forgive Kuga? “He was just following orders.”
It was then.
Namgung turned his head when he heard a voice coming from behind him.
“Latea acted mischievously, but it was probably because she thought you could succeed.”
“Now Elder…!”
Three old men were standing there. Although they looked small on the outside, the energy felt from them was extraordinary.
‘It’s them.’
[That’s fun. Can you sense the energy of blood vessels in those old people? [That is also a high level.]
The moment I saw the elders, Mumyeong spoke as if he was interested.
‘Are they saying they have learned the art of Yaksha?’
[It won’t be like that. However, the method of treating blood vessels is not limited to Yaksas. Having that level of achievement means that they are not easy to judge.]
Namgung looked at the elders at the anonymous words.
“If that kid wanted to kill you, he would have taken on the fight head on. “You wouldn’t have done such a troublesome thing.”
“Then why did you trust me even though you did such a troublesome thing?”
“I guess they believed in your return.”
“…return?”
“Your experience.”
“Even if you say that, I don’t feel very good. Rather, I think they suspected my regression and wanted to check it out. “Do I really have experience?”
Tuk –
it was that time.
One of the three old men took out something in front of Namgung.
“I can’t say it’s an apology for that, but… I think this might give me some credibility.”
What they took out was surprisingly a sacred object.
“Brother, that is…!”
It is also the sacred relic of the seven serpents.
“Where did you get this?”
Even Namgung could not help but be surprised, as he had never expected to find a holy relic so quickly.
“Probably not only us but also the elders of the clan have holy relics. “The tower is probably trying to use it as a tool to make us fight you.”
“I received a quest from the tower to kill the clan here, but what does the holy relic mean to you?”
The elder made an expression as if he didn’t know about Namgung’s question.
“I see… I guess Lathea didn’t tell you.”
“What does it mean?”
“Just as you received the tower’s quest, we received the relic’s quest.”
Namgung frowned slightly at his words.
This is because they instinctively sensed that the quest they received was not a good one.
“What is that quest? Just by looking at it, I think it’s a prank by the high-ranking officials.”
“Same as you. “Just as we asked you to kill us, our quest is to kill the intruders in the tower.”
“So what do you get?”
“freedom.”
“….”
Namgung was silent for a moment in response to their answers.
“When you came to the tower, the tower shook.”
“And I knew it when the relic appeared. “Something happened.”
They looked at Namgung with interest.
“But I didn’t know that it would just mean killing a participant in the pantheon.”
“The people here are the ones who have already finished the carnival. So Lathea must have become interested in you.”
“A person who didn’t even finish the carnival came all this way to rebel against his status.”
The elders spoke to Namgung.
“Honestly, we are still very dissatisfied with her decision. “It would be easier to kill you if I had the same freedom.”
“That’s what we want to see. “Do you really have the power to destroy this tower?”
“If you prove it to us…”
the elders spoke to Namgung in meaningful voices.
“Our clan will lend our support to you.”
Gulp –
Kuga seemed nervous at their words and swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.
The sound of his uvula shaking broke the silence.
“I was definitely interested in hearing that they were the ones who ended the carnival. But…”
“…But?”
In the tense atmosphere, Namgung answered in a rather calm voice.
“Looking at it now, I don’t think it will be of any help.”
“What?”
“What does that mean! A person who hasn’t even been to the end of the carnival dares…”
“So. “Why do people who have been to the end of the carnival want to believe me, who has not been to the end?”
“…what?”
“Woo (无) was like that. The carnival I have experienced is at best only half of it. “If you think about it that way, your experience must be so great that it can’t even be compared to mine.”
Namgung looked at the elders.
“Why do you want to trust me when it would be so much easier to kill me? I am curious about your intention to test my skills and see if I am strong. no.”
He
took a step closer to them.
“Carnival in the first place…”
Namgoong said.
“Are you finished?”
