The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 201
Episode 201 The Madman’s Subjugation Battle (3)
Gigantopis.
The biggest and most dangerous monster in the wilderness. It was a snake with a lifespan of 200 years and a correspondingly large size. It was also a monster famous for being fanatically obsessed with and competing for strong-smelling herb roots.
So it was.
When Cartu set up a hideout in the Kranosk region, the person he paid the most attention to was none other than Gigantopis. The reason was simple. Because if I touched him wrong, he was someone I couldn’t handle.
‘…But why? ‘Are they coming out here?’
Cartu’s eyes widened as if torn apart. Filled with astonishment that was even more bouncy than a bouncy ball, his gaze fell, and there there was a group of monsters slithering towards him, raising a huge cloud of dust.
It was a period top piece.
It wasn’t just one or two.
Even at rough count, there were well over twenty!
‘crazy. crazy! why?’
I didn’t understand. I couldn’t even believe it. The area around this place where he had taken refuge was an area where not a single Gigantopis lived. It was also the furthest away from the habitats of the creatures we had investigated.
But the sight of dozens of nightmarish giant snakes rushing towards me, making a fuss. It was to the point where I wanted to distort reality and think I was just having an extremely terrible nightmare.
But now the situation was a stark reality. It was a true story and facts. The disastrous scene that followed soon after hit the fact straight into Cartu’s visual center.
Siiiiit-!
Gigantopis, who had slipped from the lead, raised his large head. The monster snake’s yellow eyes persistently tracked the being running in front of it. There was an abnormally large hedgehog there.
“Little girl! “Kkosseum!”
A hedgehog running hard. A person is showing his bare upper body between the sharp thorns. Her silver hair was flowing. He was holding something up. It looked like a fairly large herb root.
It is a long root licorice.
Judging by the smell, it is certain.
Gigantopis’ eyes were filled with greed and obsession.
Si-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-!
A huge head crashed down. But at that moment, the Minotaur, who was running alongside the hedgehog, tackled(?) him.
“Nuuuuuu-!”
Kwaang-!
The Minotaur’s Cheolsango, no, a star-spangled shoulder punch that came in from the side without even blinking!
It was because of that shock. Gigantopis’ head, which had been struck violently, was jerked to the side. I accidentally hit the header on bare ground. Thanks to this, the undead zombies who were lying in ambush in the bare ground were struck by lightning.
“…Gurwoeook?”
Quad deuk! Quack!
The weight of Gigantopis, which weighed several tons, was combined with the speed at which it was sliding with all its might and the force of hitting its head. It was a blow. That force completely plowed the surface and the ground, like paving sidewalk blocks at the end of the year.
Needless to say, the undead zombies that were hiding underground to attack the punitive forces. There was no time to escape or sleep. They were plowed together in harmony (?), side by side with the pile of dirt being plowed. In an instant, his stomach exploded and he was separated into three parts and fell into the arms of Mother Nature.
Of course, all of these results were what Rachiel intended.
“good! “Keep running!”
“Little girl! “Kkosseum!”
Rachiel, riding on the little girl’s back, cheered. Everything is as planned. The intention I had in mind is working 100%.
‘I thought they were lying in ambush nearby, pretending to leave the den empty!’
Rachiel lowered her body close to Little’s back and glanced at him. Below the ground that Gigantopis had just plowed. The zombies in ambush were seen struggling after being struck by lightning. That number seemed to be enough for about 30 bodies.
A smile of conversion appeared on Rachiel’s lips.
‘I had fun with a similar strategy in that warlock’s novel, Demon Sword Emperor.’
Suddenly, the contents of the novel came to mind.
Was this when the warlock first began the advance of the undead army? The kingdom, which was hit by the first blow of an unexpected disaster, was caught up in this ruse while attempting a lax subjugation.
They entered the den to subdue the warlock. They advanced through the magic trap inside the lair. Only at the end of the march did they realize that the den was empty.
However, the punitive forces were caught off guard at that moment. They celebrated their victory, thinking that the warlocks were afraid of them and ran away from their lair.
Thanks to this, they were exterminated. I was surrounded by the undead army that was in ambush around the lair. Trapped back in the den. Due to lack of supplies, they suffered from hunger and thirst. Not even a single soldier survived and they all died and were absorbed into the undead army.
‘So… I thought they were going to use a similar plan now. ‘Tsk!’
Rakiel quickly lowered himself.
Immediately after that, a huge mass passed through the space overhead.
Siiiiit-!
It was the head of another Gigantopis targeting this direction. But Rakiel was not scared. To be honest, my legs were a little shaky, but at least I looked calm and shouted.
“Urus!”
Then, a huge Yellowy responded to the shout!
“Nuuuuuu-!”
Kwaaang-!
Urus’ headbutt flew like a patriot and pushed off the second Gigantopis’ head. The giant snake’s gaping maw missed its target and hit the ground. Grinded. Without hesitation, he crushed the elusive (?) undead zombies below the ground.
Siaaaaat-!
The remaining dozens of Gigantopis had their eyes shining brightly and their tongues lashing out. Each time, a little air entered their mouths through their forked tongues. Smells are transmitted to the Jacobson’s organ in the mouth. Then I felt it. It smelled like long-root licorice.
Just in time, Rachiel also enthusiastically waved the fake licorice in public!
Flap, flap, flap!
A fake licorice root twerked fiercely like a balloon doll in front of a gas station that opened today. Every time, the hearts of everyone at Gigantopis fluttered magnificently. The giant snakes’ obsession grew even more feverish.
‘This is it!’
As expected, it is as expected. Gigantopis, which I hunted while digging up long-rooted licorice the other day. Like him, other Gigantopis in the wilderness here also get very excited when they smell the long-rooted licorice.
‘Besides, these guys… must have been paying attention because of the guy who was caught before.’
What did Orc Chief Brash say right after successfully hunting Gigantopis and gathering long-rooted licorice? This guy I caught today was probably Gigantopis, the leader of the entire wilderness. It must have been the biggest and strongest one and had the long-rooted licorice all to itself.
Now I see that it was indeed true.
‘The rest of the Gigantopis all followed the leader’s advice. I wanted long-rooted licorice, but the boss was much larger and more powerful, so I didn’t dare to show my greed. But in the meantime, the leader was hunted. Thanks to this, each of them must have had their own circuits of hope burning warmly. Now that the leader is dead, it’s his turn to take over the long-rooted licorice.’
However, the long-rooted licorice was actually taken away by humans. Thanks to this, Gigantopis, who had had hope for a short while, must have been even more distressed.
I used that psychology. I thought my eyes would roll over just by smelling it. The prediction was correct, the catch worked well, and thanks to that…
“Whoever wins gets to eat this!”
The moment they entered the center of the undead army’s ambush, Rakiel threw the fake long-root licorice he had been shaking high into the sky. The eyes of dozens of Gigantopis looked upward as if fascinated.
Rakiel held on tightly to the prickly pear.
“Run, little girl!”
“Little girl!”
From now on, just wear pants… no, a real run away!
Kkosomi used Dodododo Full Acceleration. But none of the Gigantopis paid any attention to this side. Their eyes were only focused on the fake long-rooted licorice that was thrown up high.
Siiiiit-!
Dozens of Gigantopis flocked to one spot. They pushed each other with their huge bodies and fought over the rebound position to monopolize the licorice drop point.
And finally, the moment when the licorice falls to the ground.
Siaaaaagh-!
Shaaaa-!
The blood-splattering bloodbath of dozens of Gigantopis began. What about the undead army hiding in that area? It was literally like being struck by lightning, or rather, a nuclear weapon while playing Burrow.
Warlock Cartu’s mentality was also the same.
“Uh… uh…?”
Cartu’s mouth dropped open. We couldn’t even escape the undead army. Dozens of giant snakes tangled and fought, turning the ground upside down. Divided. The undead army within it was also divided.
‘Oh, no!’
It was an undead army that had been carefully raised over the years. How lonely and tiring it was to avoid people’s eyes. Nevertheless, I persevered with only the desire to achieve my dream. He was willing to make sacrifices for a great cause.
But, but…
‘That effort… my result!’
Everything is being torn apart. I don’t even dare to use my hands. I had no idea something like this would happen. No, I don’t know what to do from now on. It was just hopeless and dark. The strength drained from my legs. I fell to my knees.
However, an even more despairing scene appeared.
Slam! Slam! Slam!
Huge clouds of dust rose from all directions. They ran in perfect order under the setting sun. Green muscle warriors. The ranks of orcs were slowly but surely encroaching on the field of vision.
It was an elite orc corps comprised of at least 3 units and 1 ton of crazy physical strength.
“Today, we! “Let’s fight!”
“Today, we! Break it down!”
“Today, we! “We’re dating, kkuik!”
“…There’s a traitor here!”
The green muscle wall led by Chief Brash was advancing with impenetrable force under the scarlet sunset.
Warlock Cartu’s breathing suddenly stopped. You can’t win this. finished. His main army is suffering from Gigantopis’ whale fight, and Orc armies are rushing in from all directions.
‘…Let’s run away.’
So let’s plan for the future.
He made a quick decision. You just need to be safe. Then you can train the undead army again at any time. I can atone for today’s humiliation. Someday, I can take revenge on that damned prince by making him in a state where he can neither live nor die!
‘Someday, definitely!’
Crack!
Cartu gritted his teeth and cast a spell until it bled. The arrangement of mana was cleverly twisted around him. His appearance gradually became transparent. It was an invisibility spell for full-scale escape.
The moment the magic was completed, he finally felt relieved.
‘Whoa, I guess there’s no one here who can understand my invisibility magic.’
Unless you are a wizard of a level higher than yourself, you will never be able to see through or capture this invisibility magic. This would barely be possible without the arrival of the most powerful imperial wizard of the Magentano Empire. Gaining confidence, he moved to escape the battlefield.
Of course, he had no idea.
It turns out that Rakiel is fully aware of his escape.
‘Yes, acupoint scanning.’
Kiiiiing-!
Acupuncture point scanning, which observes the target’s internal acupoint flow without exception, exception, or superficiality, regardless of whether it is transparent or not, was activated through Rakiel’s eyes and scanned the entire area.
