Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 574



Only Noblemtl

574. Every day is new again (6)

It was truly surprising that the Gagi Army moved with a competitive spirit rather than calculation.

Just as Hanbin had said, his mind had changed.

Kagi-gun’s expression looked more determined than ever.

He grabbed his armor, turned to the left, and positioned himself to block Dokgakseo-woo’s path.

This was their plan.

That was when.

The Dokgakseo moved.

Krung.

Kagi-gun, who saw the movement, covered his mouth.

It was to stop the scream from coming out.

There was a reason why Dokgakseo was hesitating.

The big rhinoceros did not attack because it had urgent business to attend to.

A large pack of wolves was trampled beneath Dokgakseo’s feet.

Those wolves resembled the gray wolves, the most vicious in the North.

In some ways, it was a wolf that was hard to see north of the Churyong Mountains.

The lone wolf was trampling on the pack of wolves.

What was even scarier was that the wolf was no pushover.

He was not even making a sound in order to take advantage of the gap in the darkness.

It was creepy that such a fight was going on and the people on the other side of the hill had no idea.

In other words, the reason Dokgakseo-woo’s horns flinched was not because he was scared, but because he was stepping on a wolf.

The wolf’s strength was controlled so well that no blood flowed out of his body.

Gagigun, this part was amazing.

It was clear that the wolf had been killed to hide its scent from someone.

That someone is clearly the next target.

The next target was naturally himself and Damcheon Lake.

Gagi-gun swallowed hard.

In addition to this, there was one more mistake that Gagigun made.

It was exactly the size of a single-story building.

It was a mistake to judge it as a small baby rhinoceros.

The appearance of the Dokgakseowoo was completely different from that of a normal rhinoceros.

Hanbin’s words that the shape was very different from that of the Dokgakseowoo of the Namman Wild Beast Palace were correct.

It was bigger than people said, and it wasn’t just the horns that were scary.

Black protrusions resembling spear blades were sticking out all over his body.

The size was the same.

The large rhinoceros looked as if several of them had been put together.

It felt like a gate-breaking weapon used by soldiers.

I thought that if that thing were to hit me, even the master of Hwagyeong would be helpless.

It was a mistake because I only saw the horns.

That was when.

Damcheonho could be seen rising over the rocks.

At that sight, Gagigun quickly crossed his hands.

It was a signal to stop the plan.

Damcheonho, who saw the signal from Gagigun, fiddled with his armor and opened his eyes wide.

His original plan was simple.

He climbed up on the rock, pulled out his sword, and tried to drive it directly into the crown of Dokgakseo-u’s head.

It’s like a butcher slaughtering an ox.

Isn’t a rhinoceros also a cow?

The Dokgakseo-woo was just a musou.

Thinking about it this way, I even started to think that he was just an ordinary cow.

I thought that even if it wasn’t able to pierce the spirit’s skull in one go, it wouldn’t be a problem to knock it down with impact.

It was enough to knock him out.

Of course, after seeing Dokgakseowoo now, Damcheonho’s previous plans were completely erased from his mind.

His left hand, holding the sword, trembled slightly.

It was instinct.

Even Damcheonho, who was known to have the strongest competitive spirit, was instinctively intimidated.

I regretted what I said a little while ago when I took the plunge.

Damcheonho held his breath and put the armor on his waist again.

The closest thing to Dokgakseowoo now is Damcheon Lake.

The most dangerous one was Damcheon Lake.

Damcheonho, which had been retreating, stopped moving.

Because Dokgakseo-woo raised his head.

He looked up at the tall rock, as if he had sensed something.

Dokgakseo bowed his head again.

He struck the wolf corpses with his horns and gathered them in one place.

Damcheonho didn’t even breathe at the sight.

The sight of Dokgakseo-woo cleaning up the wolf’s corpse was similar to that of the black herons.

What was even scarier was that it was moving little by little now, but without any sound.

It was like a hunter hiding his presence for the next hunt.

Damcheon Lake didn’t even move a muscle, as if it had become a stone statue.

Fortunately, the poisonous snake changed direction.

He was blowing his nose while looking in a different direction than the rock where Damcheon Lake was.

It seemed as if smoke was rising from Dokgakseo’s nose.

It looks more like a chimney than a beast’s nose.

He stomps his feet and spits out breath.

Now that I have set my goal, it means that

The sight of them digging the dirt with their hind feet seemed to indicate that they were preparing to run towards their goal in one breath.

Judging from the atmosphere there, the spirit of a master preparing for a decisive blow was radiating out.

Damcheonho’s eyes widened as he thought it was fortunate that the attack was not directed at him.

“That’s… … .”

Damcheonho trailed off.

In the direction that the giant unicorn was looking, the Kagi Army was holding its breath.

After giving the signal, the group hid behind a tree.

Damcheonho, who was climbing up a high rock, saw everything.

It seemed as if the Kagi Army thought they had completely hidden their presence.

It was a mistake.

From above, the Dokgakseowoo was completely caught off guard.

It was clear that he had gone a step further and was now the next target.

Sasak.

The Dokgakseowoo started to move.

Damcheonho’s eyes grew wide to their limit.

The sound was perfectly hidden, as if a master were unfolding a portrait.

Sasak.

The relationship between Dokgakseowoo and Gagigun became closer and closer.

It was clear that in just a little while, Gagigun would be trampled by the large rhinoceros’s feet.

Damcheonho gritted his teeth.

It was all his own plan.

It was he who suggested that we grab Dokgakseowoo when Gagigun suggested that we leave the place.

Even though they had sent signals to cancel the plan, it was right that Damcheonho had to take ultimate responsibility.

He seemed determined and picked up the horn from his bosom.

It was a horn whistle that Hanbin gave me.

It may be a little early, but it is time to use the horn that Hanbin gave me.

Damcheonho quickly blew his horn.

Damcheonho, who was playing the flute, took the flute out of his mouth.

The flute that Hanbin had given to play in times of emergency was blocked and no sound came out.

“What the heck is this… … .”

Damcheonho’s eyes widened as he looked at the flute.

The entrance to the horn was completely blocked.

It was clear that the paper was blocking the entrance.

He quickly pulled the paper out of the horn.

Damcheonho, who had removed the paper, tilted his head.

Looking closely, I realized it wasn’t paper, but a thin cloth.

Damcheonho quickly spread out the cloth.

At that moment, Damcheonho’s eyes widened.

[The last sentence is “Each person is a life of his own.” And I hope you will wear this identification band on your arm.]

In that moment, Damcheon Lake froze.

The final decision is for each person to survive!

When I heard the words “each for himself,” my desire to live doubled.

The proverb that there is no one in the world you can trust came to mind.

Damcheonho also knows that this is Hanbin’s consideration.

The earnestness that is the core of the Eighteen Steps of Begging wells up in my heart.

This was a survival instinct that I had not felt during my training at Cheonsujang.

The determination to sacrifice one’s life for martial arts disappeared like melting snow.

Martial arts are also necessary for survival.

Damcheonho first put the words “each person lives for himself” in his head and wrapped the cloth that Hanbin had handed him around his arm.

As Hanbin said, it was an identification badge.

I don’t know how to use it, but I had no choice but to trust Hanbin.

Even if I survived here tonight, I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to take the first eighteen steps of begging.

The important thing was to survive for now.

That was when.

A loud noise was heard about twenty paces away.

Kuaang!

When I turned my head, I saw that the tree under which Gagigun had been hiding was torn in half.

It was a tree big enough for an adult to hide under, but it fell down without any strength.

A group of soldiers were seen being thrown back by the impact of the tree falling.

Damcheonho quickly blew his horn.

Phew.

It wasn’t to ask Hanbin for help.

Damcheonho also knew Hanbin’s intention of each living for themselves.

It was just to divert Dokgakseowoo’s attention because he felt that he couldn’t just leave Gagigun like that.

Fortunately, the water level of Damcheon Lake was so high that the Dokgakseo changed direction.

Two-dadadadak.

Damcheonho quickly hid his presence as Dokgakseowoo ran towards him, as if he no longer needed to hide his presence.

Then he got down from the high rock and ran towards where the group was.

At the same time, a loud noise rang out from the side of the rock where Damcheonho had climbed up.

Kuang!

Damn it!

Damcheonho, who had instinctively turned his head, opened his mouth wide.

A few flies got in, but that wasn’t a problem for Damcheonho.

Part of the rock he was climbing had split off.

With that kind of strength, poison wasn’t the problem.

Damcheonho grabbed Gagigun’s sleeve and ran.

“I’m sorry. It was a mistake that I said I would catch Dokgakseo.”

“I underestimated him too much, Hyeonmu-gookju.”

Gagigun answered with his eyebrows furrowed.

Damcheonho, who thought he had left Dokgakseowoo’s sight, continued speaking.

“But no matter how much I think about it, I think it would be better not to believe what the youngest prince promised.”

“What does that mean?”

“I said I would heal you no matter how badly you were injured.”

“Why is that a lie?”

“There can never be any casualties.”

“How can there be no casualties when it’s so brutal?”

“If you get caught by that guy, you die instantly. There may be deaths, but I bet my life that there will be no injuries.”

“Oh, then it would be better to blow the horn that the youngest prince gave me right now.”

“That doesn’t work either.”

“What does that mean?”

“Perhaps there is a piece of cloth blocking the front of the horn.”

“What the heck… … .”

Kagi-gun, whose words had been trailing off, quickly took out a hornpipe from his bosom.

Then I found the cloth that was blocking the entrance to the flute.

As Gagi-gun spread out the cloth, Damcheon-ho continued speaking weakly.

“It will say ‘Each one lives for himself’. That is the final sentence.”

“No.”

When Gagi-gun shook his head, Damcheon-ho asked urgently.

“What, what does that mean?”

“Look here.”

When Gagigun held out the cloth, Damcheonho seemed surprised and snatched the cloth from Gagigun.

Everything else was the same, but the writing was different.

[The last sentence is “Heavenly help.” And… … .]

“How can this be?”

As Damcheonho pointed to the text with a trembling hand, Gagigun quickly answered.

“This seems to be the youngest prince’s arrangement.”

Damcheonho asked in surprise.

“Arrangement? What do you mean?”

“What is the Twelve Rules of the Habuk Peng Family? Isn’t it that if we unite, we will live, and if we divide, we will die? We have violated that rule. Perhaps the youngest Confucius predicted our actions and gave us the task.”

“Who on earth is the youngest prince… … .”

“It seems that you are the incarnation of Zhuge Liang. We are just the foolish subordinates who split the silk bag.”

“omg!”

Damcheonho let out a scream.

The silk pouches that Ga Ji-jun mentioned as an example refer to the three pouches that Zhuge Liang predicted Liu Bei’s danger and told Zhao Yun about.

What Gagigun said was that Hanbin had gone a step further and predicted that the silk pouch would split into three.
