Genius Salsu of the World to Be Destroyed - Chapter 30

Episode 30
A weed field near a wild market.
A win.
Oh Yang-ho carefully pulled out a handful of grass from there, taking care not to damage the roots.
The name of this grass, which looks like a weed at first glance, is black bellflower.
It was a herb that had a slight tonic effect when the juice of the stem and roots was eaten, but it was not used often because of its terrible smell.
Yangho muttered as he packed the black peppercorns in his pocket.
“Now if you put this into this liquid… … .”
Yangho took out a glass bottle from his bosom.
It contained a mixture that Yang Ho had personally prepared at KPA.
Pong-
Yangho dropped a black drop of vinegar into the liquid.
At the same time, the skill was activated.
Alchemist-exclusive skill, ‘Extraction’.
Pugurururuk-
As the essence of the black dropwort began to quickly dissolve and mix with the mixture, Yangho immediately closed the bottle cap.
Yangho took the bottle and returned to the raiders.
“I’m ready.”
“hmm.”
After hearing Yang-ho’s words, Yeong-su got up from the lump of cement he was sitting on.
Taking that as a signal, the rest of the men also began to line up behind Youngsoo.
The magician Woo Jun-young.
Heavy article Hong Jeong-hoo.
Puppeteer Heo Young-ah.
Paladin Jo Ha-seong.
Elementalist Noh Ji-an.
And at the very back, the alchemist Oh Yang-ho.
These are the seven wild shopping district raiders.
Yeongsu spoke to all of them through voice.
‘Test test. Can you hear me?’
“yes.”
“yes!”
‘good.’
Thud, thud, thud.
They started walking towards the main gate of the wild.
The main gate of the wild place that we arrived at so quickly.
It was a heavy door made of iron plate.
In addition, thousands of thick vines covered the front and back of the door, making it much more solid than before.
That moment when all the cadets thought, “How on earth are we going to break this?”
Sling.
Youngsoo took out a greatsword from his inventory.
That greatsword I brought from the Candleley Gardens.
Yeongsu pulled the greatsword back as far as he could.
And then the skill was activated.
—-
[Skill] ‘One-point strike’ activated.
—-
A skill that strongly stabs and twists the target in front with the sword in hand, breaking it, one-point strike.
It was the first attack skill learned when you became a killer, so it had an extremely simple principle and limited range.
But that’s why the damage done when mastered was quite extraordinary.
But what if this skill, which is usually cast with a dagger, were cast with a greatsword that is dozens of times heavier than a dagger?
BANG!!
A single blow struck the thick iron door with a single blow.
The surface of a sheet of iron that is pierced, twisted, and torn.
Thousands of vines, torn to pieces.
And so the gate of the wild was opened.
The deep, black darkness beyond the door looked down upon the raiders.
A darkness as black as ink, so dark that the interior cannot be seen at all.
And then there are the dark sounds coming from the darkness.
Yeongsu gave instructions by voice.
‘Oh Yang-ho, throw the stink potion.’
Yangho threw the vial he had just added black peppercorns to into the darkness.
Phew, a short swoosh followed by the sound of the wind cutting through the air, followed by the sound of something breaking.
The liquid inside the vial began to rapidly vaporize and spread out.
A strong foul odor.
Still, it was a rather unpleasant smell for people.
Enough to be able to endure it without having to block your nose.
But that wasn’t the case for the blind wolves.
A monster with an extremely developed sense of smell, the blind wolf, whose eyesight has deteriorated due to living in the dark.
This level of stench was enough to overwhelm their olfactory organs.
“Kuaaaang!”
“Kahhak!!”
Soon the blind wolves began to run wild in the darkness.
It’s not that he went berserk, he just started going wild because he was so purely distressed.
Some of them completely lost consciousness, and some started rushing towards Youngsu and his group.
Youngsoo said.
‘Elementalist, lights up.’
The elementalist, Noh Ji-an, activated his skill as instructed.
Four large fireballs rose into the air.
The fireballs brightened up the bare face of this place that had been filled with darkness.
This secures the field of vision.
Youngsoo gave instructions again.
‘The magician, the heavy knight.’
Sling.
Yeongsu took out the poison sword Sigal from his inventory and held it while speaking.
‘Kill him.’
The magician Woo Jun-young, the heavy knight Hong Jeong-hoo.
Junyoung’s long spear swept away the blind wolves one by one, and Jeonghu’s horse-mounted spear dashed forward and broke the wolves’ ranks.
And what these two people were doing, Yeongsu was doing by himself.
The blind wolves were cut down in an instant.
And the survivors ran out of the store in panic.
But the raiding party didn’t bother to catch the guys who ran away.
There were people to deal with them anyway.
Outside the wild shopping district, a tent village.
The blind wolves that had escaped rushed towards that place without any plan.
but-
“Come at me, you little monsters!”
Yong Kwon Sa, Park Bu Hyung, and Inspector Jang Do Soo.
The wolves, who had lost their sense of smell and were unable to come to their senses, were swept away by the two’s combined attack.
An old man in the tent village was surprised and asked Gapseok.
When the old man asked how this happened, Gap-seok answered.
That scared monsters are running out of the shopping mall.
Someone is raiding the interior of the Wild Market.
The implication was simple.
“Wild attack, commence.”
Yeongsu declared as he walked forward, stepping on the blood of blind wolves.
* * *
It wasn’t just the people in the tent village who were shocked by this wild situation.
“You’re going to attack the wild market… …? Are you crazy?!”
Former combat science professor at Hongryeon Academy, Go Jong-yeop.
He was observing the movements of the wild merchants from afar through a telescope.
However, we were closely monitoring the movements of the KPA, which had entered the realm of the wild.
‘Of course, the KPA guys have gotten stronger than we imagined. But… But does that mean we should try a wild attack right away?’
It was shocking, but on the other hand, it was also fortunate.
‘… It would be the best outcome if we all died there.’
But the opposite possibility also existed.
There is a possibility that the KPA will really succeed in conquering the wild.
‘But then what happens?’
In fact, neither Jongyeop nor Hongryeon knew what was inside the wild shopping center.
Because it was a place that wasn’t even planned to be conquered in the first place.
It wasn’t even a place that existed in the game.
So even if the KPA succeeded in conquering the wild castle, there was no way of knowing what rewards they would receive.
but…….
‘It doesn’t matter what reward they get. If they succeed in their conquest, that in itself is a problem… … !’
Hongryeon, Cheonghwa, Mujin, Taiping.
A place that none of the four largest guilds in South Korea have been able to conquer.
If KPA were to attack such a place, it would mean that KPA’s power would surpass that of the other four places.
‘… We have to watch until the end.’
It would be best if they were annihilated in the wild.
But if you don’t do that and succeed in conquering it –
‘…We must destroy them, even through war.’
war.
Feeling a vivid premonition from this eerie word, Jongyeop stared at the wild thing.
* * *
Inside the wild shopping mall.
Immediately after sweeping away the blind wolves, the cadets took a moment to catch their breath and look around the inside of the store.
The most notable feature were the vines.
Tens of thousands of vines, large and small, densely covered the walls and ceiling.
Just like blood vessels.
It was Yeongsu’s voice that called back the cadets who had been distracted by this strangely grotesque sight.
‘Puppeteer.’
“Yes? Oh, yes!”
A slender and pretty-looking female cadet answered.
Her name is Heo Yeong-ah.
The class was puppeteer.
‘Send the doll out into this hallway.’
“… Really?”
‘If we hesitate, we all die.’
The infant seemed to hesitate for a moment, but eventually summoned her doll.
A wooden doll about the size of a young boy.
“I’m sorry, Douglas… … !”
The infant sobbed and manipulated her doll into walking down an empty hallway.
Then-
Pubbuck!
The spears flying from all directions annihilated Douglas.
Youngsoo counted the number of spears that had flown in and been stuck.
One, two, five, twenty, twenty-five, thirty.
‘All 30 spears have been used up! Charge quickly before they refill!!’
The raid party quickly advanced through the hallways.
For a moment, a frantic rush began.
Go straight for 20 meters, then turn left. The drop trap that suddenly attacks from around the corner can be destroyed by Youngsoo. After that, go up the stairs just one floor and kill the Kobold standing guard there to collect blood.
He used his alchemy skills to alter the blood he extracted in this way into a lure potion, and used it to lure out all the widely spread out groups of kobolds.
“Khahaaak!”
“Clararak!”
A group of kobolds swarming in, stimulated by a lure potion.
They came from all over the place and set off several traps.
A triggered trap loses its function.
That’s why Youngsoo listened carefully to the sounds of the traps being activated.
‘Digestive fluid trap, strangle trap, compression trap, and poison fog trap. These four traps have been disabled.’
It was possible to identify the types of traps that had been activated simply by listening to the sound.
So, based on this information, Youngsoo calculated the safest route.
‘straight.’
The expedition team ran again.
We quickly ran through the broken traps before they could be repaired.
So they finally reached the top floor, in the center of the building.
A situation where you can enter the boss room by breaking through just one trap.
‘The final trap, a colony of metal cannibals.’
A trap with countless swaying metal vines with sharp teeth.
A terrifying trap that turns anyone caught in it into dust.
And the one trap that Youngsoo has never been able to break through in the game.
But this time it was different.
Because it wasn’t Youngsoo himself, but Youngsoo’s army that came.
‘Alchemist, take out the last vials.’
‘The doll rushes into the trap holding the vials.’
‘Elementalist, light the vials on fire.’
‘And the knight will put a shield on the doll. Then-‘
Pubberbung… … !
The vials in the doll’s arms began to burst one by one.
And the shield suppressed those explosions.
What would happen if the shock that should explode and spread like that were suppressed and suppressed again?
The moment when the growing explosive power reaches its limit.
Tick.
All the pent-up explosive power poured out at once.
And with the explosion, the liquid at the bottom of the vials vaporized and spread in all directions.
A special solution created solely for the purpose of corroding metal vines.
As the liquid burst and spread with a tremendous explosion, the metal cannibal vines were instantly swept away.
These are things that cannot be eliminated no matter what you do.
‘Yeah, this is it.’
Yeongsu felt relieved as he watched the trap that he had been unable to break through being swept away so easily.
‘This is why we played as a team.’
Alchemist, Puppeteer, Paladin, Elementalist.
If it weren’t for their collaboration, it would have been impossible to create this explosion.
The current achievement is in itself the result of teamwork.
Jeobuk-
The raiders, including Youngsoo, crossed the scorched earth cannibalistic colony.
What existed beyond was a room covered in vines.
Not the man-eating plants, but the regular vines that cover the entire building.
This room is a kind of hub.
This room was the center that spread mana throughout the building.
In that case, one question inevitably arises.
Where does that energy come from?
‘That’s it.’
The team members who followed Youngsoo’s fingers and turned their gaze were finally able to see.
A long knife stuck in the floor.
And all the vines in this room are connected to this sword.
This sword, which flew in from somewhere and stuck itself here, transformed the normal vines and turned this wild place into hell.
‘That’s the magic sword.’
‘Demon Sword… …!’
A magical sword, an essential item for the upcoming war with the elves.
‘You must get it.’
Yeongsu walked forward, holding the poison sword.
The demon felt a huge presence approaching him.
Kkuddeuk-
All the vines that covered the room began to squirm little by little.
