600. Expected Changes (5)
Their system was similar to that of the Open or other sects in that they determined rank by the number of knots.
However, the warriors of Baekgyeong are distinguished by their affiliation and rank not only by their knots, but also by the color of their knots.
The knot was tied to a small horn.
A warrior in a rabbit mask carefully held onto the horn that was about to burst out.
Even this one knot could be received after three years of initiation into Baekgyeong.
Actually, the blue knot wasn’t the end.
When you have completed all six knots of the blue belt, you will receive a red knot.
Only after you have filled all the red knots will you receive the white knot.
One had to receive a white knot to take on the role of a leader.
The rabbit masked warrior stared blankly at the blue knot on his waist.
There’s still a long way to go.
It was not known when it would be possible to fill all the blue knots.
The rabbit masked warrior checked the blue knot hidden at his waist once more and readjusted his sword sheath.
Her name was Ja-cheong.
Ja-cheong was the youngest of the group dispatched for this mission.
She looked around with a serious expression.
No matter how much I raised my spirits, I couldn’t feel any signs of life around me.
At this point, I started to wonder if it wasn’t an illusion that there were people around me.
Jacheong looked around for a moment and tilted his head.
It’s because of the sudden presence felt around me.
I turned my head and saw my colleague walking towards me.
“Who is it?”
I wasn’t asking a question. I was just mumbling to myself.
Since they were divided into the east, west, south, and north to search for enemies, there was no way their comrades would come near them.
But then a colleague wearing a rabbit mask walks by nonchalantly.
Then the warrior wearing the rabbit mask answered.
“No matter how hard I looked in the north, I couldn’t find it. The leader ordered us to look for it in the south together.”
“The captain’s orders? When did the captain give such an order?”
“Just now. If you’re curious, check the orders here.”
The rabbit mask held a letter.
Ja-cheong quickly approached his colleague at that sight.
Sasa-sak.
It seemed that even Ja-Cheong’s lightness technique had reached a high level.
In the blink of an eye, Jacheong stood in front of his colleague and held out his hand.
The colleague handed me the letter without any hesitation.
Jacheong, who was checking the letter, opened his eyes wide.
This was not the leader’s handwriting.
There was something strange about the content.
“… … ‘I was fooled’? What does that mean… … .”
Ja-cheong trailed off and drew his sword.
Sling.
At the same time, he cut the front.
Whoosh!
Among Baek Kyung’s colleagues, there was no one who would commit such a low-level prank.
Ja-Cheong drew a black line through the empty space and faced forward again.
That was when.
Suddenly a voice was heard from behind.
“You’re really gullible.”
At that voice, Ja-cheong responded with his sword.
stroke!
The sword cut through the air again.
Suddenly, a crackling noise came to my ears.
phut!
With that sound, Ja-cheong was pushed back about five steps.
If it weren’t for the internal energy I had cultivated in Baekgyeong, I would have probably lost consciousness and fallen down.
Ja-cheong held out his sword and looked ahead.
“Who the hell are you?”
“That’s a secret.”
“Secret? What are you talking about?”
“You guys won’t tell me your true identity. So it’s a secret to me too.”
“You know our background?”
“That’s why I prepared these masks and costumes.”
The opponent was wearing a rabbit mask and white uniform.
Ja-cheong narrowed his eyes.
It was clear that the opponent was using a defensive strategy.
There was a strangely annoying, cheap tone to the words that were used to nitpick.
Ja-cheong gritted his teeth and looked at his opponent.
Judging from the white uniform and rabbit mask he was wearing, he seemed to be a warrior of the Baekgyeong clan he belonged to.
But judging from the way he spoke, it was clear that he was the enemy.
Ja-cheong quickly found a small hornpipe hidden in his belt.
Of course, the opponent was Hanbin.
Hanbin decided to start his greetings with a surprise attack.
There were two main things Hanbin had to gain from this meeting.
One of them was Gugyeol.
Hanbin smiled faintly and looked ahead quietly.
When the original rabbit masks of Baekgyeong were gathered together, they all had a kkul.
But when I actually faced the opponent, the dot indicating the knot had disappeared.
It was there before, but when I looked, the dot indicating the knot was gone?
The disappearance of the knot was inevitable. Hanbin’s concern was how to make the knot appear on the opponent’s body.
After much thought, the conclusion we reached was a surprise attack.
What if you could surprise your opponent and completely draw out their martial arts level?
I thought I might be able to get the knot too.
But even though we made a surprise attack, the target did not appear.
What would be the situation where the knot only appears when several people are gathered together?
Hanbin was curious about the answer.
Hanbin crossed his arms and looked at the other person.
Even if he didn’t get the trophy, he still had something to gain from his opponent.
That was the information.
The information I received through the female demon was only a rough estimate of Baek Kyung.
The information about another force opposing Baekgyeong was not even known.
In addition, what is the scale of the background?
All I knew was that it was a tribal organization.
Their overall size was also enormous.
To that extent, Baek Kyung was a dark force.
Why else would it have been mentioned even once between the teenage generations and the old school?
The masters of Hwagyeong are an organization that kicks people’s butts, and the people of Jungwon don’t know them?
This in itself didn’t make sense.
That organization was none other than Baekgyeong.
But can we get information from Baekgyeong’s warrior?
The odds were fifty-fifty.
Information required a tight design.
After a moment of hesitation, Hanbin snapped his fingers.
Exactly!
At that sound, Jacheong narrowed his eyes as if he was nervous.
Hanbin shouted as if he found the sight amusing.
“Watch your back!”
“What’s behind… … .”
Ja-cheong turned his head. But only for a moment, and then he realized his mistake and immediately thrust his sword forward.
Looking closely, the opponent had narrowed the distance by about two steps.
It was clear that he was trying to lure attention with a lie and then launch another surprise attack.
Then Hanbin snapped his fingers again.
Exactly!
“Watch your back.”
“Don’t be fooled!”
Although he said that, Ja-cheong turned his head away.
She felt sorry again.
When I turned my head again, the other person had come a few steps closer.
Ja-cheong gritted his teeth.
Then Hanbin snapped his fingers again.
Exactly!
Hanbin shouted at Ja-cheong, who was stepping back in surprise.
“be careful!”
“You know how to fool me… … . Ah!”
Ja-cheong ended his speech with a scream.
Because I felt pain in my side.
Ja-cheong turned his head and checked his side.
There was a needle stuck in his side.
At that moment, Ja-cheong’s legs gave out slightly.
Ja-cheong hesitated and stepped back.
Another opponent appeared in an unexpected situation.
Now it was time to take a last resort.
It was a request for rescue.
The blue-knotted horn had only two uses.
If blown properly, it could be a call for help, but if blown backwards, it could also be a suicide device.
Now the first thing to do was to take out the horn.
Jacheong, who had been hesitating and searching for the hornpipe, opened his eyes wide.
Because the horn flute that was hidden well on his waist was gone.
That was when.
Seolhwa, who was at the back, grabbed the horn and shook it, shouting.
“Are you looking for this? Rabbit mask, sis?”
“Who the hell are you to block my view… … .”
“Our master told us to prepare valuable items in advance.”
Seolhwa laughed awkwardly.
Then Hanbin said.
“You can subdue him now.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
With those words, Seolhwa’s blood-curdling sword moved.
Sasa-sak.
In the blink of an eye, Ja-cheong was subdued by Han-bin and Seol-hwa’s joint attack.
Tied up tightly, Ja-cheong couldn’t move a single finger.
Then a cold voice was heard.
“If you’ve taken what you need, kill them. It’ll be a headache if other people join you.”
Hanbin pretended to cut his throat.
At that sight, Seolhwa continued speaking with a slightly hesitant expression.
“Your Majesty, can I not spare you?”
“Can I ask why?”
“We don’t know enough about Baekgyeong to just kill him. And it doesn’t seem to me like we’ve found everything you want.”
“hmm.”
“It’s because you smell strangely similar to me, Confucius.”
“You smell the scent of water?”
“It’s not the scent of a murderer, but it’s because he seems to have suffered from losing his parents since childhood. And if you look closely at his expression, something seems wrong… … .”
“Then do whatever you want. Just put it somewhere out of sight.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
As Seol-hwa threw a winning ticket at Han-bin, Jacheong, who had been listening to the conversation from the side, let out a sigh of relief.
That was when.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of the ground being dug next to me.
Papa Park.
Seolhwa started digging the ground.
In the blink of an eye, Seol-hwa dug up the ground and put Ja-cheong there.
For a moment, Jacheong felt dizzy.
I was impressed by the other person who said he would spare my life, but upon closer inspection, I saw that he was trying to bury me alive.
The opponent covered the dirt as if he didn’t care about Ja-Jung’s opinion.
“Now, wait a minute.”
“Why is that?”
When Seolhwa tilted her head, Jacheong shouted urgently.
“Didn’t you say you would spare my life?”
“It’s true that you’re saving my life.”
“You think burying them alive like this will save them? You villains!”
“It’s not about burying them alive, it’s about keeping them. You probably know how to do the Gwisikdaebeop.”
“What is this, the Great Law of Eating?”
“Even if you cover it with dirt, you can survive for two days with that level of martial arts. It’s better to keep hope alive than to have your throat cut here and now.”
“What, what do you want?”
Ja-cheong shouted urgently.
It would have been normal for the group leader to rush in when there was this much noise.
However, seeing that there was no sign of anything around, it seemed like the opponent had spread out his tentacles wide.
If he had displayed that level of awesomeness, he was clearly one step ahead of Jo Jang.
How could a master, more than a leader, use such a lethal method… … .
Ja-cheong felt like he was going crazy right now.
When I first found the horn, I was ready to take my life.
I didn’t care about my life even when the other person told me to take care of it.
But when he said he would spare my life, the life that I thought I could just throw away became precious.
Now I wanted to live.
If you think about it, wasn’t wanting to become a god a way to enjoy eternal life?
It seemed that he had completely forgotten his original intentions due to his loyalty to the organization called Baekgyeong.
I just now remembered my original intention, which I had long since forgotten.
After finding the will to live, I realized that the current situation was driving me crazy.
Burial alive!
Ja-cheong looked at the other person without saying anything.
The opponent stopped throwing dirt and just crouched down to look at Ja-cheong.
Ja-cheong swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.
At that moment, Seolhwa narrowed her eyes and asked.
“Do you have any money?”
“Money? What do you mean?”
“I want to start by gathering some money to buy some candy.”
“I’ll give you the money when it’s released.”
“How much do you have?”
“That’s enough money to buy candy for a year. So let me go.”
“Then I’ll get the money later and start with the questions, Rabbit Mask Sister. But if there’s anything different from what I know, I’ll ask right away.”
“Before that, let me ask you one thing.”
