Chapter 749 – Side Story 3. Renewal of the Forest of the Missing (3)
“Are you a dog and a bat?”
“Woof!”
“Squeak!” “Is this really how bats cry?”
“I don’t know either! “Woof!”
“…”
Hwayoung and Harin were standing half naked.
No, Harin is crawling on all fours.
What’s going on? Is something wrong?
Since they said they were two animals, I naturally thought they were just summoned beasts. But when I actually came here in person, I realized that instead of being an animal, I was a comrade at the level of an evil warrior, right?
It’s no fun like this. If these two go on a rampage, it will be a forest of missing people, and they will be able to erase more within an hour.
“Hey, brother.”
“Huh? Yes, that’s right.”
“We are helpers for this part. It doesn’t help much, it just feels like we’re walking around together. So, you don’t have to worry that we will solve everything.”
“Okay? That’s a good thing. But in Seoul, it was Eunji and Yewon. “Is the forest the two of you?”
“It’s like that.”
“Huh! We are in charge of pregnancy for this part! “Woof!”
I don’t know what to say about this, but I decided to go with them since they weren’t much of a bother even if I took them with me.
It seems like the main goal from the beginning was pregnancy. Didn’t you both just come here with the intention of mating?
“First of all, how much can you guys help?”
“You can stand guard while you sleep!”
“It is also possible to provide simple labor.”
“And to bed!”
“Huh. After all, that was the goal.”
“Correct answer! Bruise! Pregnancy is the goal!”
“Well, something like that.”
“Harin, are you going to keep leaving bruises at the end of your sentences?”
“Bruise! Huh! It’s cute! “Woof!”
“Hwayoung. “Since when did Harin become like this?”
“… Over the past 10 years, my intelligence has deteriorated further. “The wildness has become more intense.”
“…”
It’s very sad that Harin’s intelligence has declined, but her energy can’t be compared to what it was 10 years ago.
‘The state of transcendence has already been surpassed… Semi-immortality… No. You have reached the level of success. It’s almost similar to the energy that Garia of the Blue Moon gave off. If you train just a little more like this… Harin will become a god.’
In terms of her simple strength, she was higher than Hwayoung next to her.
What on earth has this guy, Seong Harin, been doing for the past 10 years?
Although she was smiling, the depth of karma gathered in her shadow was incredibly deep.
[Are you curious about Ms. Seong Harin’s whereabouts?]
“Briefly.”
[Destroyed 7 hostile planets in the Battle of Ten Thousand Demons. The number of intelligent beings killed by her alone exceeds 10 billion.]
“…”
You’ve been killing so many people over the past 10 years.
I understand why it got to that level.
Having killed 10 billion people, it makes sense to rise to the level of a god.
[Also, the source has been awakened. It is presumed to be the origin of the beast series, and although its intelligence is lowered, its wildness and senses are maximized. The win rate in a battle with Zeke, who is on his way to becoming a combat god, is about 50 percent.]
“You’re crazy.”
I stroked Harin’s head.
I can’t believe that such a calm guy could fight and win against Zeke, who has reached the level of a demigod.
“Hwayoung.”
“Yes.”
“I think you are the brain of our party.”
“Yes? Me?”
“Okay. I also have no intention of making a fuss. You do the brain.”
“Ahh…”
“So, Hwayoung.”
“Yes.”
“What should I do from now on?”
Hwayoung touched her forehead and looked like she didn’t know what to do.
Harin, who is no better than an animal, and me, who came here without any thought.
Before Hwayoung escaped from the Forest of the Missing, she had to take care of both me and Harin.
“First, let’s find a safe house. The goal is to find the shrine of God in the Forest of the Missing and awaken the three sealed fetishes. “I think it will take about a week.”
“A week? Okay. Are there other players here too?”
“This time it’s just the three of us. “No matter who shows up, they are not participants but simple NPCs.”
“Ohh.”
“But there are quite a few hostile NPCs, so it might be annoying.”
“What are hostile NPCs?”
“First of all, there are missing people wandering the forest and animal hunters.”
“Beast hunter?”
“Yes. “They will come to get us.”
“Aha. Because you play the role of animals.”
“Yes, yes. And there is also a cursed beast. There are also murderers.”
“The cursed beast is definitely not a deadly beast, right?”
“That’s right. “There are a lot of deadly beasts created in labs running around.”
When you think of a deadly beast, Keker comes to mind.
What on earth is that guy doing? I think I heard a story about a dragon being killed and eaten in the devil’s cave.
“A hunter who brags about missing animals, a murderer who kills wild animals.”
“Since they attack each other, why not take advantage of that?”
“Are we fighting each other?”
“Yes. Because the forces are different, the killer tries to find and kill the missing person, and the hunter kills the deadly animal.”
“That would be fun.”
“And missing people and hunters don’t attack each other. “It attacks all deadly beasts and murderers.”
“Okay. Okay. “Let’s find a safe house first.”
Hwayoung told me that there were abandoned buildings scattered throughout the forest.
All you have to do is use one of these buildings as a base to explore the area.
“How about that one over there?”
“It’s a wooden house.”
“It smells good!”
“Okay? Brother, go over there. Since Harin says she likes it, it seems like a high-grade safe house.”
“Are there grades for houses?”
“Yes. There is also a cursed house. “There is also a blessed house.”
“Then at least it’s not a cursed house.”
“Right.”
We approached the wooden house.
It was an old Japanese-style house overflowing with vines.
“Unlike the exterior, the interior is much neater than expected.”
“I see. There are also daily necessities.”
There was also a second floor and an attic.
There were a lot of novels written in Japanese in the study on the second floor, and there were boxes of old Japanese toys and decorations in the attic.
“There are enough groceries. I can easily survive for a week.”
“I guess so.”
“Then shall we take a break?”
Why do you want to take off your clothes when you want to rest?
Surely, right from the first day?
‘I’m not bad, but I’m okay.’
I’m kind of excited. It feels like traveling to a Japanese inn and having fun.
Thump thump thump.
“Huh?”
“You are a guest.”
“You must be the customer I’m thinking of, right?”
“Yes. “It will.”
I pulled out a Chinese sword.
There are no other players in this forest. You can see them all as enemies. Of course, even if it were another player, I would have killed him.
-Help me! Fuck.! Please.!
A woman’s voice knocking on the door.
I opened the front door.
Soon a woman with long hair came into the house.
“Please help me. Crazy killers… Huh…?”
“Hwayoung.”
“Yes, brother.”
“Are non-hostile NPCs walking around too?”
“Right. There are also non-hostile survivor NPCs.”
“Is it worth keeping alive?”
“Hmm, maybe I can use it as an offering.”
“Sacrifice?”
“Yes. “Human sacrifices must be made at the shrines of gods.”
Hwayoung said let’s save the woman.
She couldn’t really tell if this woman was a non-hostile NPC or if she was just an acting murderer who was pretending she wasn’t dangerous.
‘What’s going on?’
If a sacrifice is needed, it would be better to keep it alive.
“Sniff. “Woof!”
At that time, Harin, who was eating her beef jerky, smelled her womanly scent and shook her head.
“The smell of blood.”
“Huh?”
“That woman smells like blood. “Woof!”
“You were a murderer?”
“…”
The moment her identity was discovered, the woman stretched out her hand and tried to stab me in the eye.
After turning her head to avoid her attack, she immediately swung her middle sword. However, she quickly backed away and ran out of her house.
Bang-!!!
“Run away! “Woof!”
“Can you catch me?”
“No. Let’s just let it go.”
She didn’t chase after him on purpose.
After freeing him, I plan to turn off the aggro of the miscellaneous things around here.
“The smell that came from that bitch’s body. “It wasn’t one, right?”
“Huh! At least 5. I assume you have a friend! “Woof!”
“I knew so.”
That bitch is the vanguard.
Eyes that were strangely frightened.
Killers stronger than me must have sent that woman here. To save me.
‘He was almost unarmed. The forest is too dangerous to come here unarmed just to deceive.’
I have been feeling the presence of deadly beasts for a while now.
Maybe it’s because of Harin that he doesn’t approach me. Still, it won’t last long.
‘They are slowly gathering together.’
This is what’s fun about the Forest of the Missing.
The longer you stay in one place, the more malicious the forest becomes.
All kinds of people will probably gather around this building.
‘Should I just rest at home for a few days?’
I think that would be good.
Since Harin and Hwayoung are there, I don’t think she’ll be bored.
Let’s just stay at home for about 3 days. It’s not Time Attack anyway.
Per-Eng!!!!
“Oppa! “There’s a fire in the back warehouse!”
“Hey. These bastards. “You don’t wait a day?”
The skill [Fire Suppression] Was activated.
It is not simply a skill to put out a fire.
It is a skill that turns the flame generated by a hostile entity into your own.
It can be seen as a firefighting specialty. It’s truly a skill worthy of a Savior or a hero.
What is important is the flame generated by the ‘hostile being’.
Those guys are my enemies. Because they lit the fire first, the conditions for skill activation were met.
Grumbling!!!!
All the burning flames were gathered and condensed onto my hand.
“Where is the direction?”
“Over there!”
The flames were fired towards the location Harin told me about.
“Come on, let’s die.”
This is a forest.
And I can control the flames as I please.
The fire you lit will suffocate you.
It won’t end until the forest is burned down.
