The 31st Piece Turns the Tables

Episode 526

Kugugugugugu Palace…

The ancient door that had become one with the wall and seemed to show no change began to open.

However, if the open door was a solved problem, there were still unresolved problems.

“… I tell you in advance, I have no intention of fighting with you. “If you walk from that direction, I don’t have any intention of turning it down.”

The Black Knight revealed his intentions from the beginning. That actually makes the situation more suspicious.

Swoosh…

Swoosh…

Karen and Karuna take their hands off the pillar.

Leap…

Leap…

Snowfall joined them.

“… How did we get here? “Are you following us?”

“It’s not that free, and I arrived here before you in the first place.”

“….”

“I just followed the voice calling me for a long time.”

After observing him closely, the Black Knight did not seem to be lying at all.

‘… sound?’

Karen and Karuna also said that someone was calling them from the moment they entered Tamuto Jungle.

Face the door leading here.

Of course, this was also an important issue. But Snowfall now asked a more important question.

“Immortality? “Weren’t we together?”

“We have decided to move separately from the immortals for the time being. “I hate acting with doubts remaining.”

“What is the ultimate purpose of immortality? “What are you and that kid planning?”

“Immortal and I did not have the same goals. The Eternal Church is also just an immortal army and has nothing to do with me.”

“Hmm…”

“It’s very unpleasant to put me on the same level as those low-ranking fanatics in the first place, but…”

“Then… what is your purpose?”

“… I can not say. “It’s definitely not something I should say in a situation like this.”

The Black Knight further explained his innocence.

“I cannot reveal what my purpose is, but my reason for coming here is the same as yours. “Maybe, if what I’m thinking is correct… we might as well move on from here together.”

“Do you… know something?”

“That’s…”

Gikkigigikkik…

Suspicious friction sound.

The space shook.

Paaaaat-!

Snowfall climbed up a tall pillar and looked at the surrounding scenery. The ruins, which had already become one with the jungle, somehow looked like a maze and it didn’t seem like it would be easy to find the way.

And something approaches this place from afar.

“Damn… bad premonitions always come true.”

“… what?”

Snowfall came down and spoke to everyone.

“From now on, don’t make any noise until I give you the signal.”

“What is that…”

As Kang Seol glared at Karen, she also realized the gravity of the situation and closed her mouth.

Tsuzzzzuzzu 즛 …

Kugu -gu -gu -gu -gu -gu -gu -gu

…

It had no eyes and was shaped like a snake with a long body.

Or should I say it’s like an eel digging into the ground?

The problem is that it is very large. So much so that the previously majestic door can be crushed in one bite.

Tsutsutsutsutsu…

It slowly approached Kang Seol and his group.

Sreuk…

The snowfall extinguished the torch.

* * *

Kang Seol remembers the first time she met this nasty creature.

“… huh?”

He is a player who has already created numerous pieces and has played a variety of pieces.

Still, it’s unique.

The horse that came into his hands this time was very unusual.

Crunch…

Crunch…

[Mobs wake up.]

[Mobs only move based on instinct.]

[Mobs cannot see.]

…

Suddenly, an unknown entity appears with the following message. Snowfall as a player.

‘… reptile?’

The horses that had passed through him so far were all humanoid, although they were of different genders. But now… it’s broken.

Squeak…

Squeak…

As soon as Mops was born, he chewed and ate the eggshell in which he was born. There was no mother and there were no traces of other eggs around it.

It was abandoned.

in harsh environments.

Snowfall could not control Mobs or choose his future. Because my intellect was weak to discern between facts and facts, I couldn’t even open a map to figure out the location.

Of course, I couldn’t figure out where this space where the mobs were was located.

scary.

The feeling of being left alone in the deep sea.

Naturally, Snowfall had to let go of Mobs’ fate and turn to a new horse.

Because it was clear that a fate that one could neither control nor choose was worthless.

But I couldn’t let go of the snowfall.

How lonely this life must be, abandoned even by such a fate.

I decided to just quietly watch the guy’s progress.

Parts…

When Mops was born, it was the size of an adult’s forearm.

That alone was quite large, but if you asked how they could survive without anyone’s protection and without any information about this place, they would tilt their heads.

Kang Seol quietly watched.

…

At first, the mobs in their mouths were moss in the stones and stones. The moss alone was enough to fill my hungry stomach. That is, if you chew continuously throughout the day.

As a result, Mobs’ body grew slightly larger. The guy moved his body diligently, probably realizing that he could no longer be satisfied with moss alone.

bean-!

bean-!

Mobs was delighted when he hit his head on a rotten tree trunk and discovered a nest of bugs.

“good job!”

Snowfall was happy as if it were her own work.

Mobs survive.

Mobs must survive.

The world abandoned him, but Mobs did not abandon himself.

A strong desire for life and the fighting spirit to move forward.

If Snowfall had been able to control Mobs, she would have taken him to the end of the world.

Because I’ve never encountered anything as primal as this guy. Those aspirations felt pure.

Wow!

Kkeeeeeeeek-!

Wow!

Mobs preferred animal meat to bugs. No, in the first place, what a guy growing at an uncanny rate needs is a piece of meat that will fit perfectly into his mouth.

Crackling…

Clucking…

It eats birds, destroys the nests of strange birds, and even swallows their eggs. As a bonus, a nest.

Kiiik…

I was worried about the snowfall when I encountered the monster, but Mops crushed the monster’s body with its huge size and turned it into a piece of meat like other animals.

From then on, doubts began to grow for Kang Seol.

What are Mops?

Also, where is this place where Mops was born?

It’s like if there was a land from the beginning, wouldn’t it be this place? Surrounding environment that makes you think.

Everything was primitive and fascinating. The beasts and bugs were huge, and the predators that ate them were even bigger.

And when they finally wiped out the giant apes in the ruins, which were the top of the food chain, the Mops had grown too large.

The Mobs were still hungry, and for the time being, they would just continue hunting and feasting here.

I didn’t find out anything.

To the extent that I have memorized the paths that Mobs kept hitting while passing by. In the end, Mobs got so angry that he destroyed the place.

Who are Mops and where do they live?

[Mobs will now create his own destiny.]

[Although the heart-pounding adventure has come to an end, his life continues.]

…

Snowfall was unable to reveal it to the end.

* * *

Tsuzuzuzuzu…

A black snake circles around the ruins built against a huge tree.

Kang Seol knew at a glance that this guy was Mobs. No, I had no choice but to notice. The compass mark that had always pointed underground has now disappeared.

It took quite a long time to find out.

Where do mobs live?

Unfortunately, the timing wasn’t the best.

Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrut…

An eyeless snake circles around. Fortunately, it did not land on the ruins. However, it seemed to be observing the surroundings, as if it had sensed that prey was here.

If someone asks Kang Seol if he can fight against mobs, he is ready to answer whether he is sane.

Mobs was invincible, at least within his domain. That is why he became the ruler of this great hell.

When he became the loser of this ruin, he had already surpassed the supreme level. From when it was much smaller than it is now.

And the power I feel now…

‘… a lump of power.’

If I were to put it simply, it was like that.

The power itself contained within the body was overwhelming. The energy alone was greater than that of anyone else in the group. There is probably some pressure from that superior body.

‘… This is his territory. Fighting here is the worst option.’

Seuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucuuuuuuuuuuuu’t

walk so they don’t hear her footsteps.

When he walked three steps, not only the twin knights but also the black knight followed closely behind.

Of course, be careful about the sounds you make.

The torches were extinguished, so the surroundings were not bright, but the mysterious light emitted by the tree fruits and ores was illuminating the surroundings.

Snow and his party walk carefully out of the entrance.

Snowfall felt uneasy even as she walked.

It wasn’t because of the sound.

This is because when I climbed the pillar to check it out earlier, the topography of this place was quite unique.

And that anxiety soon became reality.

‘…Damn it.’

The tree had been cut down.

The other side is a distance that can only be reached by taking a strong leap.

Of course there will be sound.

Because that’s what giving strength is.

Everyone exchanged looks.

It was obvious that a very difficult situation would arise the moment we crossed this point.

Nod…

Everyone took their stance and ran at the same time.

Kiaaaaaaa-!

Mobs appeared from somewhere and swept over the place where they flew in with their mouths open.

Kwaaaaaa!

This moment is like a scene from a horror movie.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

“Eat this!”

“no! Karen!”

Karen’s flames flew into the Mobs’ maw.

Push…

[Mobs ignore 95% of all damage in the Hall of Guardians.]

…

Mobs are invincible.

At least here.

It’s not a lie.

That’s why Kang Seol didn’t choose to fight.

“Jump!”

Paaaaaaat-!

The four break through the maze by dividing into four branches at the same time.

Kwaaaaaa-!

Kwaaaaaa-!

I could feel the mobs chasing me, destroying the ruins. It probably hasn’t moved this wildly since it became a predator.

Adventure 41 ‘Hall of Protection’

In this world, there are places where civilization is thriving and places where it is not.

You arrive at a location first discovered while exploring the pristine forest of Tamuto Jungle.

There was a huge door and you somehow managed to open it. There are traces of a broken civilization here. Giant trees and primitive life forms that may have existed in the beginning.

And even a lurking threat.

The Black Snake Mobs, the absolute ruler of this place, has recognized your presence.

Mobs will only act to fill their stomachs for the time being.

Fighting against mobs here would be the height of foolishness.

We need to get out of here.

ASAP.

Goal: Exit the Hall of Guardians while avoiding the pursuit of mobs.

Current remaining time 「Unknown」

Ta-da-da-da-!

“Ahh! “Why are you only chasing me?”

Karen cried and ran away at full speed. Aside from Snowfall, she was the fastest thing here, but Mobs was no slouch either.

If I let my guard down even a little, my next step would be running through the jaws of a black snake.

I had to figure out a way.

‘Then…’

Huuuuuup…

Snowfall that makes the shadows swell.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

The shadow burst out with a noise like a balloon bursting.

It was a noise more foreign and chilling than any other roar.

Kiiiiiii!

Mobs was in pain and turned his head towards the snowfall.

The target has now changed from Karen to Snowfall.

Kwa-ga-ga-ga-ga-!

‘Hmm!’

The fear coming from behind made my fur stand on end.

My legs couldn’t rest.

If you run so fast that you can’t even feel it, you will barely be able to catch up.

“Change it!”

Too-doo-doo-doo-doo…

Quaaaaaaang-!

“Here you go, monster.”

Crumbling…

Karuna made a noise and led the mobs.

If you take turns distracting the mobs, you will be able to reach the end of this hall.

But a twist of fate unfolded before their eyes.

‘This is….’

Four paths that merge and then diverge.

Just now, Jiang Seol realized that he had made a serious mistake.

There is only one road leading here.

The other three roads are all dead ends.

Of course, if you only have 2 seconds to spare, all you have to do is break it and move on, but with the mobs chasing after you, 2 seconds was enough time to get Kangseol and his group into the left and right molars.

This is a road that Mobs often passed when he was growing up.

It was a place where I got very nervous every time I bumped into it.

In the end, the mobs cut out one large path and only passed through that path every time.

‘Of course there…’

The black knight headed there.

He will use Kangseol and his party as bait to escape leisurely.

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa8551114588 there?

“… what?”

A huge roar erupted from a corner of the road in a location that was neither Karen nor Karuna.

It is an unexpected action in a completely unexpected situation.

“… I guess it’s my turn this time.”

Kwa-ga-ga-ga-ga-!

Mobs began chasing the Black Knight.

In the meantime, the three reach a blocked road.

Kang Seol shouted.

“Break down the wall!”

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
