Chapter 612 – Lee Byung-Ho (3)
*
Red Gate, it was the moment I took my first step into an unknown space.
When I came to my senses after a moment of dizziness, I noticed the corpses of monsters lying on the floor.
Maybe they’ve already fought some monsters, maybe they’re the ones living in front of the gate.
‘It doesn’t look like anything special.’
Is it just that the amount of magic attribute is greater and the density is higher than that of a typical gate?
The atmosphere and monsters didn’t look much different.
‘Isn’t it?’
These are the ones you can see at regular gates, but they look slightly different.
Still, I can’t draw a conclusion because I haven’t fought in person, but my first impression was that it wasn’t as good as I thought.
“The next person has to come in, so please move this way!”
“Yep.”
Considering the countless hunters who have to come in behind me, I shouldn’t be blocking the entrance.
Well, since I started with SSS rank hunters, I kind of expected that nothing special would happen, but after experiencing it myself, I felt somewhat drained.
‘But, is it really heavy?’
I could definitely feel the difference in the density of magical power.
It didn’t feel like I was moving a rock like in sparring, but compared to usual times, it certainly wasn’t easy to manipulate magical power.
Maybe that’s why they made them fight in extreme situations.
Should I say that it is easy to adapt thanks to the vaccination in advance?
As I moved according to the instructions, I saw hunters busy making a base camp.
“Is that how they make it.”
Perhaps because it was my first time seeing this scenery, I was mesmerized by it without realizing it.
It was quite a sight to see various magic circles and devices flying through the air according to Choi A-rin’s instructions.
I heard that under normal circumstances, when you first enter the gate, you start by building a base camp.
Unless you are in a situation where you need to clear the gate quickly, it is safer to explore by gradually expanding the area around the base camp.
The gate right before the backflow phenomenon occurs is the base camp, so they said they would first go deal with the gatekeeper.
‘My mother-in-law is there too.’
I was filled with admiration as I watched the children flying through the air fall into place without any error and the buildings being assembled.
It’s amazing to move something that heavy, but to be able to achieve such high precision.
When she’s under me, she looks like an extremely delicate girl, but my mother-in-law is scary.
“Monsters can approach, so don’t lose sight of your guard!!”
As I was watching with fascination, the old man’s yelling came from behind.
I guess it was because there were a lot of people around me, so I relaxed a little without realizing it.
If you’re very nervous about the word “Red Gate” And see this scene unfolding before your eyes, maybe other people will be too.
“It’s a wave!!!”
Just as I let my guard down for a moment, I saw a group of monsters running towards me from afar.
They must have been bothered by us entering their territory, so they started running towards us with a threatening spirit.
“Secure the space around the gate and let the vanguard hunters move forward! Rear-end hunters, wait until given instructions!!”
“Rearguard hunters, only attack those far away! Be careful not to misfire!!”
Hunters who quickly find their place without any signs of panic despite instructions coming from all directions.
Maybe I was used to this kind of situation, but I also moved to the front line, paying attention to what others thought.
The ones running from afar were ordinary-looking goblins, Redgate and Goblin, an unlikely combination, but they were different.
‘Why is it that size?’
A typical goblin is a very formidable guy that can reach the waist of an adult man.
However, the goblins running in front of us were about two-thirds the size of an adult male, had muscular bodies, and were running at breakneck speeds using both arms and legs.
It would not be an illusion to think that they are stronger than the higher species called hobgoblins.
“Fuck. What kind of goblin looks so creepy?”
“Isn’t the speed unusual? Is this Red Gate?”
I wonder if this is the first time I’m seeing other hunters as well. How many chances will I have to see the guys living in Red Gate?
“Oh.”
As they got closer, large magic circles began to appear in the air.
The flow of magical power felt everywhere, a tremendous flow of magical energy that could not be felt in the academy, and without realizing it, my body gained strength.
“Prioritize targeting those far away! Shoot!!!”
“Shoot!!”
All kinds of colorful magic fell on the goblin and caused an explosion.
It would be common sense for a typical goblin to run away from a force so strong that it shook everything, but these guys were different.
“You survived after being hit by that?”
“Prepare for vanguard battle!! Never let your guard down!!”
Goblins who did not lose their fighting spirit even when they were scorched here and there by all kinds of magic.
When I saw the guys running like crazy as if they were fighting to the death, I felt disgusted without even realizing it.
Because the goblins were closer than a certain distance, magic could not be used, and a clash with the vanguard hunters began.
The moment the distance gets closer, the goblins suddenly kick the ground and leap.
‘Crazy.!’
The sight of him leaping over a distance of over 3 meters and putting his fist down in one go made me feel like my common sense was being shaken.
Goblins who show ridiculous abilities, as if the muscles they have are not just for decoration.
I swung my sword at the leaping guy, and he even showed a reaction by twisting his body in the air.
Physical abilities and reaction speed that are incomparable to those of ordinary goblins, as well as belligerence.
Could goblins change this much just because of the Red Gate?
Well, isn’t he just a goblin?
It reacted to the sword I swung, but could not avoid it.
__Chuck!!
The blade imbued with magic penetrated the guy’s skin and a pit bull burst out of the air.
The problem is that he was clearly blocking the attack aimed at his neck, and the cut was thinner than expected.
“Keaaaaah!!!?
The guy was roaring with a voice so loud that it made my ears ring. Even though he was screaming in pain, he was glaring at me.
Aiming for the moment he landed, I launched a series of stabbing attacks, and my blade dug into him before his feet fell.
__Phew!!
It felt like something was penetrating, but the toughness of their leather was definitely not normal.
‘Why not save your magic power?’
To be honest, since I was a goblin, I didn’t need to conserve my magic power.
The blade shined more vividly than before, and as I aimed at the next leaper, the blade moved more easily than before.
Even though it was stronger compared to regular goblins, it wasn’t so strong that it couldn’t fight it.
If you were to go by rank, it was a C-rank level monster, of course, considering it was a goblin, it was a ridiculous story.
It was a story that completely overturned common sense that these guys who pushed with quantity had this much force.
‘I guess that’s because the power of the first spells was adjusted.’
There are no hunters willing to waste goblin magic power.
Now that you know their level, let’s warm up a bit.
*
“Are you listening?”
“Yes.”
“Whoa.”
Although he possessed C-rank level fearsome force, his opponents were A-level top hunters.
Naturally, the battle with Goble ended in victory for the hunters.
There was probably a village of these guys nearby, and they rushed in to wipe out us who had invaded their territory.
Did you say that the monsters in the Red Gate have a higher sensitivity to territory than regular monsters, and that they respond in this way when their territory is invaded?
“Even if there is no damage, what should I do if the instructions are ignored?”
“Yes. “I’m sorry.”
“Whew. The same goes for you.”
“I’m sorry.”
The goblin guys responded so well that I got a little excited without realizing it.
If it’s too easy, it’s not fun, but there are monsters that have a moderate amount of impact but feel good to catch, and the goblin we had this time was one of those types.
There is a lot of quantity, so how can we tolerate these guys who are so aggressive and look for an opening and even make a surprise attack?
Also, he’s quite stubborn, so he’s good with his hands.
It must be said that they are very good for developing one’s senses, and it is even more so because their hands and feet are well suited.
I don’t know if that’s why, but some hunters left the ranks.
Actually, I was the first one to write it, but it was inspired by me and several hunters joined in.
Aren’t all people’s lives the same?
Well, anyway, I’m being treated like the instigator, so I’m getting more warnings.
“I know you’re boiling over because you’re young, but this is inside the Red Gate. Something might happen inside the Red Gate, so be careful. “Please.”
“Yes.”
“And I know you’re confident in your accuracy, but you have to be extra careful in raids like this.”
“I’m sorry.”
There was someone else who was treated like a leader like me, Taeyeon.
Thinking of helping me, he fired from behind and received a warning.
“In reality, there are many cases where people suffer damage due to friendly fire during raids. Even though no one was hit, there is always something like that.”
“Yes. I will be careful.”
The two of us who received warnings side by side were able to return to our places after the sermon.
“Hey, you fight well?”
“Let’s have a meal later!” Haha!”
“Ah. Yep! Thank you.”
The hunters who had received the warning along with me chuckled, started talking, and returned to their seats.
I don’t know if it was because he was a warlike type of hunter, but he seemed to quite like what I did.
Well, since he couldn’t hold back and started cutting like me, it would be nagging to say so.
“Don’t jump into danger.”
“Huh?”
“Don’t jump forward like that alone. “Do you think you are the only hunter here?”
“What. “Are you worried now?”
“… “
Does Taeyeon worry about me too?
The moment the corner of my mouth was about to go up without me realizing it, I saw Jian walking from afar.
But I’m clearly walking, so why is it so fast?
“Siwoo. Are you okay?”
“Yes. Nothing much happened. There were no injuries.”
“Is that so? Tent allocation has been completed. Would you like to check?”
“Tent?”
Could there be a tent or something at the gate you just entered?
How long had it been since I heard the sermon? What appeared to be a tent village in the corner caught my eye.
It’s definitely fast.
“Yes. “It was difficult to use a personal tent due to lack of space, so I assigned it to the same place as Seo-ah.”
“Yes. Thank you .?”
