Chapter 384 – The Cotton Field
“Do not come! To me!! I mean, don’t come close!!”
The death of his subordinates seemed to have given him quite a shock, and the Ten Commander struggled like a child.
However, such tantrums do not work for the steel skeletons, who are the cruelest nannies of Hell.
The captain of the Ten was caught by a steel skeleton and hung dangling in the air, looking like a floating figure in the winter wind.
“Where did the village chief and his two sons run off to?”
“Free me! Release me!!”
“What is the Altar of God the village chief was talking about? Does this have something to do with the basement? What’s in this?”
“Free me!!”
“…”
“Kyaaaaa!! Free me!! Help me!!”
“This fuck.”
The leader of the ten, who has gone into a state of panic, doesn’t even think about seeing me in front of her, she just screams like a girl.
What a panic talk!
There will be no conversation like this.
The behavior of the leader of the 10, who struggles to save his life and demands only his opinion, is no different from that of an immature 7-year-old!
A cultured, decent, well-educated intellectual would not do this!
I think I need to instill adult manners into the leader of the Ten.
I picked up the spearhead of the Ten Commander that was broken by the steel skeleton. The spearhead part is broken short, so when you grab the handle, only the spearhead remains.
Although somewhat rusty and chipped, it is sharp enough to stab people and cause pain.
After grabbing it in reverse, he immediately plunged it into the thigh of the captain of the Ten.
“Aaaaa!!!!!”
“Shut up if you want me to let you go!”
“Ouch… !!”
At the word of release, light returned to the ten captain’s eyes. The boy gritted his teeth and muffled his voice.
It seems that the culture of an intellectual has been instilled in her when she puts a steel needle once on her thigh.
After all, it’s something people should grow up to see. Didn’t you have a reason enough to have a conversation because you were iron inside your body?
“Whoa, it looks like you’ve finally come back to your senses. If you want to be freed, answer me straight up when I ask.”
“Keuk… !”
At the word liberation, the Ten Commander nodded his head vigorously.
“Where did the village chief and his two sons run away?”
“As soon as the skeletons appeared, they ran into the basement!”
“To the basement? Is there a way to escape?”
Usually, it is normal to run to open fields or mountains where it is easy to escape from pursuers. But going into the blocked basement?
“Damn it, are you lying?”
As he grasped and twisted the education of an intellectual embedded in his thigh, the captain’s waist bent like a bow.
“Aagh!! Really!! It’s real!! There are monsters in the basement! It looks like you’re trying to fight against it!!”
“Monster?”
“Yes! There is a monster raised by the village chief in the basement!”
Seeing that there is no detailed description of the monster, it seems that even the leader of the Ten has no idea about the monster’s identity.
“They say it’s the altar of God, what do you mean by that?”
“Whoop, whoop! The village chief calls the place where the monster is sealed in the basement the God Altar. And call that monster a godsend!”
“Monster… Godsend… ?”
What kind of nonsense is this?
Isn’t this a remote village where people make various bedding items out of cotton wool? But a monster and calling it a gift from God, is there some kind of pseudo-religion?
I have a lot of questions, but I can’t spend too much time on this guy.
Most of the questions will be solved by catching the village chief anyway.
“Hmm, good. You will set me free now.”
“Me, really?!”
Come to think of it, when I was fighting the goblins last time, I had wounded them and absorbed their life force with my bare hands.
Is it possible to absorb life force through other tools? Wouldn’t it be possible because it was easily absorbed through the sickle of the god of death?
I caught the ‘intellectual culture’ embedded in the thigh of the captain of the ten. Then I focused my mind.
The thigh muscles tightening the spear blade, the overflowing hot blood, the blood vessels passing through, the heart beating hotly and pushing the blood out.
It is an intense life force.
It is easy to see that the vitality of the leader of the decade belongs to the axis that is quite excellent even among ordinary adult men.
No matter how hard it was, it seems that he did not get the position of captain of the ten men of the armed group, the security guard, for nothing.
Like a sponge absorbing water, it absorbed the life force of the leader of the Ten.
“Keep it off… !”
The captain of the Ten, whose life force was being absorbed by me, let out a breathless sound. His toned body loses moisture and becomes crumbly like a dried apple.
“Um…”
It’s not an intense wave that you can’t handle like when you absorbed Drake’s life force. In addition, the ‘culture of intellectuals’ that connects the ten leaders and my body do not play the role of a bridge properly. No, rather, it feels more disturbing than doing it with bare hands.
On the other hand, when absorbing life force through the sickle of the god of death, it worked better than doing it with bare hands.
It must have been because the sickle of the god of death was a special item.
There was nothing more flowing into my body, so I slowly withdrew my hand. The Ten Commander had become a completely withered mummy.
“Whoa, as promised, you released me from the human world~?”
The guards of Ajio Village have been put to an end, so the only thing left is the village chief who hid underground.
“I don’t know if it’s a gift from God or what, but it would be better to follow the village chief, right?”
In my opinion, Natalya nodded his head without objection. Roin, on the other hand, looked a little worried.
“I’m worried that there might be a trap or something because it’s underground, but there might be an exit beyond the basement that we don’t know about. You will be able to solve the problem with ease.”
“Good. Then let’s go in.”
The avant-garde, as always, was Natalia’s steel skeleton. He went in after him.
After descending all the steps that seemed to have been carved out of stone, it was a somewhat rugged cave without a single light.
Even with the sphere of light Natalya summoned, the area beyond the cave was engulfed in darkness, and I had no idea where the end was.
The repulsive smell of blood was thicker than anything I had smelled outside. In addition, the damp and cool feeling unique to the basement made it even more unpleasant.
“The passage is not very wide. I can’t use troll skeletons.”
Having said that, Natalya reverse-summoned all the troll skeletons and white bone skeletons.
The old man who came in after me complained softly while looking at the long underground passage.
“What is this? Did you build your house over a natural cave?”
“I know. Let’s go with it for now.”
Various questions about the current situation, which cannot be understood by common sense, popped up in my head, but I shook my head to blow my thoughts away. Right now, the priority is to beat the guys who are hostile to me.
In the process, questions will naturally be resolved.
The old man who was walking behind the steel skeleton let out a small sigh.
“Fortunately, the cave is a single road.”
By the time I thought I had walked quite a bit, the atmosphere around me changed. The aisle seemed to gradually widen, and soon a fairly wide cavity appeared.
The maddened voice of the village chief came from afar.
The guy was standing on a slightly raised altar in the middle of the cavity.
And in the center of the altar was a coffin. The door of the coffin was closed.
“These shameful bastards!! Are you coming into the altar of a god with dirt feet!!”
“How many idiots do you have to build an altar in such a basement where no light can reach?”
“Gaaaaagh!!! I can’t forgive you!! Dare!!”
They approached the glowing village head slowly, slowly, with the skeletons in front.
“Snack,” Something like mud dragged the soles of my feet sticky.
I frowned and looked down at the floor.
The red carpet that filled the floor of the huge cavity caught my eye.
The carpet rippled according to my movements and those around me. It is not a carpet.
“This, blood?”
I got used to it and forgot about it. I finally realized the identity of the smell of blood that had been wafting from the moment I opened the basement door.
However, if there was enough blood to fill the floor of this cavity, how many people would be needed?
The children of the villagers who disappeared, the number of children not too small in proportion to the number of villagers excluding slaves.
“Chief!!! Where are the children of the villagers!!”
“Thugs!! You too will become a sacrifice to the gods!!”
When the village chief opened the door of the coffin, dark red blood poured out from the inside.
“Ugh… ?!”
“Is it Natalie?! What’s the matter?”
At the same time as the door of the coffin opened, Natalya hesitated and stepped back.
“There is an intense, death aura within me… !”
After hearing Natalya’s words, I glared at the coffin.
After the door of the coffin is opened, the strong overflowing energy of death is clearly felt.
The owner of the energy slowly came out of the coffin. The village chief looked at it and rolled his eyes in rapture.
“Ah, can you feel it! This is a precious treasure given to me by God! You scoundrels who deny my God! I will give you a taste of the power of the gods!”
