Iron Blood Conquers Expansion 143

Chapter 143 – Chapter 143 Stepping Out to the Sun-15

Beasts are basically strong.
The female type is not much different from the human, but the male type has much higher strength, stamina, and reflexes.
In terms of pure physical ability, excluding magical power, it is at the top among the races.
Among them, if it was a tiger beastman, it was famous for being strong among beastmen, making a pair of lion beastmen.

As the underground slowly approached, Longtao moved accordingly.
As if they had made a promise, the two looked at each other in a circle.
Without paying attention to the gazes around them, they focus their efforts on understanding each other.

‘There’s nothing to be gained by subduing Longtao now.’

Even if they cut their throats right away, those subordinates will not roll into the basement.
Apparently Longtao was quite charismatic, and the other guards seemed to trust him and follow him.

‘I was thinking of collecting Dirga if I had to, but… I’d love to get this guy too. Then let’s just test it here.’

In order to break the confrontation between the two people who were just going round and round while looking at each other, Ji-ha deliberately stepped on a piece of wood that was scattered on the floor.

Pudeuk.

Long Tao grinned and blew his body away.
The underground also collided with each other while strengthening their bodies with magic.

Bang! Bang!

Fist and fist collide in the air.
A fist clash with a tiger beastman who is said to be the strongest among beastmen.
A normal human would have his hand bones shattered instantly, but his subterranean body was strengthened with magical powers.

But the difference in weight and weight class is too big.
Underground trains to survive and is in good shape, but the 198cm tall tiger Suin has different muscle efficiency and weight.
The fist had a similar amount of impact, but was pushed backwards due to sheer weight.

“Hoo!”

Lungtao let out a sound of excitement as he jumped in and opened up a series of attacks.
In a head-on collision, you inevitably lose. Underground evaded and focused on kicking away.
Even though it is a body reinforced with magical power, the impact of being hit with a sledgehammer is transmitted to the body. It was a merciless Nanta that would have turned a normal human body into mush in an instant.

‘You’re strong…’

If Wordsland were a world without magic, this guy would have become a loser in a region with just his fists.
In between the honest blows and strikes that cut through the wind, the underground counterattack was mixed.

“Huh?”

Rongtao frowned at the shock that made his armor resonate and backed away.
Ji-ha, while avoiding it, stabbed his fist into Rong Tao’s wrist joint.
Any creature is vulnerable when it comes to wrists, and beasts are no exception.

Although Longtao’s fists were powerful, they were all linear attacks without fakes, so if you knew the trajectory, you could evade and even counterattack without difficulty.
He didn’t hit with the proper form, but since he was hitting with magic anyway, it didn’t matter too much.
Longtao was amazed.

“You understand your abilities well.”

In terms of pure fighting, humans can never be opponents of tigers and beasts.
Because the difference in weight, strength, and defense is as great as that of a 3-year-old child and a professional fighter.
Even if it was unique, I wouldn’t try to compete with a tiger beast man with my bare hands.

However, the underground strengthened the body with magical powers, excluding the basic common sense of fighting and dealing with it.
Even if you hit it moderately, the shock is transmitted.
Rongtao recommended Jiji anew.

“Tell me again. Won’t you come under me?”
“You mean to be Dirga’s bodyguard, or to be your subordinate?”
“That’s it.”

Brang, who was watching, let out a shrieking sound.

“Wait, Longtao. I can’t hear the words now. The bodyguard is not your personal private army.”
“How about that?”
“Those who want to be Dirga’s escorts want to have strong weapons, and Dirga wants stronger men to be her escorts. If this is the case, do you think those details don’t matter?”

Lungtao smiled, and Brang frowned.

“It’s sophistry. The escorts gather to see Dirga-sama, not to follow you.”
“Say it, but…”

Underground clicked his tongue.
The guards watching from behind Longtao were looking at Brang disapprovingly.

‘This is the reason we became two families under one roof.’

Longtao subtly drew Dirga’s escorts under him, and Brang was resisting it.
According to the principle, Brang is right, but… Longtao had charisma.

“I will listen to your story after this fight. Underground, won’t you do it right?”
“You are playing too.”

The reason they clashed with only their fists without pulling out their weapons was because they both wanted to recognize each other.
If you draw a weapon here, it will become intense.
Rong Tao thought for a moment before gripping the sword at his waist.

“Maybe it won’t end with just the arm.”
“I might as well kill you.”

I put my hand on the sword at the back of the underpass.
As they tried to grab their swords, the door opened and people rushed in.

“This is Warris’ constable. I have received a report.”
“Declaration?”

Longtao and Brang looked puzzled.
Underground shook his head.
The plan I had laid out in advance was activated at this timing.

“That’s right, the police officer was dispatched when the outsider was rioting. What are you going to do?”
“…”

Rong Tao thought for a moment and then nodded his head.
He realized that this was an underground arrangement.

“Okay, move the inn.”
“Wait, Longtao. That…”
“We lost. As suggested, the guards will split up and take care of their lodging. I try to act as little as possible to cause trouble and not to offend the innkeeper. Got it?”

Brang had a dissatisfied face at Rongtao’s one-sided decision, but after seeing the magistrates, he nodded his head.

“… I can’t help it. Just do it.”
“Good. Go away.”

At Jiha’s words, the police officers looked embarrassed, but the field commander bowed his head to Jiha and retreated.
He had already been dispatched after receiving a special order from the mayor.
Brang’s complexion changed as the constables, who had come in like a tide, slipped away like an ebb.
He would have known that the underground was not an ordinary common, that he was a big man who moved the constables with a single tongue.

“… What are you?”
“It’s a man.”

Ji Ha, who answered briefly, said while looking at Rongtao.

“I’m about to go back now, but are you going to change your mind and stop it?”
“No, we don’t know each other yet, so let’s stop here for today.”

The guards let out moans of dissatisfaction at the words that they would return the underground well.
From their point of view, the basement came in first, but they don’t like the fact that they have to let go with their eyes open.
But when Rongtao looked back, he quickly shut his mouth.

“As promised, let’s all immediately disperse and check out the inn. I won’t let more than 3 people stay in the same inn, but will this be enough?”
“Good.”

Jiha shook his hand and turned around.

“Let’s go, Mayan.”

After leisurely leaving the inn, Ji-ha walked while organizing her thoughts.

‘The rumor that I paid for the inn cheaply and kicked out the tyrannical guards of Dirga will spread on its own. Citizens will hear my name all over again…’

Underground was working to capture the hearts of the citizens of Warris step by step.

‘The scattered guards of Dirga must have a lot of dissatisfaction inside. They cause accidents, or when they’re quiet, they cause accidents… I openly subdue it and build a paving stone.’

Jiha, who had decided on her future course, spoke to Mayan, who was following her.

“Do you know anything about Dirga?”
“I am a wandering arms dealer.”

Mayan spoke softly as if she had been waiting.

“It is a small race and is a subspecies of dwarves, but the parties deny it. They are all made up of women, and in order to leave descendants, they have no choice but to meet men of other races. They say that all of Dirga’s children will become Dirga.”
“It’s a race that doesn’t come out of mixed blood.”

Mayan continued.

“The Dirga are a race that has a great talent for making weapons. The weapon they made is called Dirga Weapon, and even of the same grade, it is far superior. Dirga Weapons 2nd grade usually become 1st grade weapons.”
“Okay.”
“So naturally, there are many people who want Dirga weapons, but Dirga only hands over weapons to men.”
“You say good weapons are only handed over to men?”

This is information you already know.

“Yes, it’s tradition, but I won’t change it. Usually, it is said that Dir will hand over a class 3 weapon to escorts, a class 2 weapon to a man who has lived higher, and a class 1 weapon to a man who has made a nobleman.”
“Jeong-In?”
“Dirga is going to be with one man for the rest of her life and have a child with him. There is a story that the reason for wandering is to meet a better man.”
“What is the criterion? Is it a face

Mayan shook her head.

“It is ambiguous. Everyone thinks she is a man with superior fighting skills, judging from the fact that she gathers escorts.”
“Hmm, it’s a first-class weapon…”
“Unique Narsha Russell Arms, who is coming this time, does not yet have an affection. For Dirga, welcoming her lover is a very important event, so she holds a festival and invites all Dirga she knows. When Narsha, who is unique, gets married, there will be a very big festival.”
“Okay…”

Then it is a story that Longtao is not Narsha’s lover.

“It must be a gorgeous wedding.”
“No. Dirga has no marriage culture. They want children from a man, not a legal betrothal or binding force.”
“…”

I stared at the basement.
Mayan answers so bluntly.

“Did you do any preparations?”

Mayan, who was hesitant, hesitated, then she revealed the circumstances.

“The lady told me.”
“Enlil? Why?”
“… He said to let me know if you ask.”

Knowing that Jihaha is running Mayan these days, she seems to have prepared it just in case.

“The lady told me to keep it a secret…”

Mayan revealed it to the underground based on her own judgment.

‘It’s a very indirect way of saying what you can say with your own mouth…’

Jiha, pondering the meaning, stopped and looked up at the sky.
Mayan also naturally stopped half a step behind.
Passers-by looked at the basement, which suddenly stopped, but the basement closed its eyes and organized its thoughts.

Longtao is a hero.
Did they say that a hero recognizes a hero?

‘I don’t know if I am a hero, but…’

The moment Jiha met what kind of guy Rongtao was, he had an intuition.
Dirga is set up as the pants boss, and Dirga sees the weapon and gathers the men flocking to her under her.

‘Similar to me…’

He is an ambitious and purposeful bastard.
Brang opposes it, but although he does not know the power, he lacks the charm.

“He will try to swallow me.”

As Jiha calmly spoke, Mayan didn’t seem to understand what he meant.
If Jiha is intent on reaping Dirga’s guards, on the contrary, Longtao will now know the Underground and try to devour its forces.
I’ll investigate the basement right away and find a point to dig into.

“Then the first thing I must do is…”

Jiha made up her mind and looked at Mayan.

“Lead ahead.”
“Yes?”
“To rest at Enlil’s house.”

There are now four Uniques that the underground has reaped.
Leticia has parted ways with the elves, Yura has been completely subjugated to the underworld, and Asira is now trying to make up her mind.
Looking at all these things, it was Enlil who had to come to a conclusion the fastest.

‘Come to think of it, the longest time has passed since I vampirized… Two or three months from now, the blood must have increased enough.’

Individual Enlil was now following the underworld, but he was still in conflict when the fate of the race was at stake.

‘I’ll suck blood today to increase my mana…’

The basement concluded.

I make that dark elf completely mine.
Follow forever
