Monster Heavenly King - Chapter 133
Only Noblemtl
133. Clue (5)
“Didn’t he clearly say that he was a guild of vagabonds?”
“that’s right.”
It was a completely incongruous combination, but it wasn’t hard to figure out what the two words he said meant.
-And that means the Vagabond Guild is also connected to the Association.
‘That’s what will happen.’
I don’t know if the purpose they are pursuing is the same though.
What the hell is going on here?
While I was thinking like that, a thought suddenly crossed my mind.
‘huh?’
-what’s the matter?
‘No, that’s…’
The Heavenly Demon Church, the Labyrinth Association, and the Vagabond Guild.
The Cheonmasin Church remains as it is, but that is still the case.
The Labyrinth Association was no different from a martial arts alliance that had grown to a world-class scale.
And, the guild of vagabonds is just like a blood cult.
in other words,
‘All the guys I defeated in the past have come back to life.’
Moreover, the fact that he was still hostile towards himself remained unchanged.
“What the hell.”
Naturally, curses could not help but spill out from between my teeth.
This bad relationship just keeps going on and on.
There’s a saying that history repeats itself, but isn’t this a bit too much?
‘Do I have to go through that hardship again?’
Moreover, there are those in the system who have been upgraded with skills or magic.
Just thinking about fighting them again made my bones literally hurt.
Ma Cheon-gang, who had been quietly watching the scene, left a comment.
“Good work.”
“No, why are you talking like it’s someone else’s business?”
“Because it’s not my job.”
“… … ”
That was right.
Even if Ma Cheon-gang leaves here, none of the three places will chase him.
But, he was different.
A situation where all three places are already hostile to you.
“Hey, are you being so lethal?”
“Don’t use the water ghost strategy. You’re trying to drag in an old man who retired a long time ago. You’ll get punished for it.”
“A guy who bragged about being a half-sister when we first met.”
“Bragging is bragging, it’s not the same as struggling.”
“Your friend is going through a lot of hardship, and you’re just going to sit by and do nothing?”
“I won’t just sit back and watch. It’ll be fun to see you struggle and get destroyed in three places.”
Elena, who was looking at the two bickering people, sighed softly and turned her gaze away, clapping her hands.
“You two, let’s talk about that later. For now, let’s take a look at the people we saved. We can’t just leave those people alone forever.”
If you encounter a monster without proper equipment, it will be difficult to survive.
When I returned to the collapsed cave, I saw a considerable number of Awakened and vagabonds sitting there.
“Oh? I thought the bum would run away, but he didn’t.”
-I shot a few of the guys who were running away, so they became quiet.
Luke’s voice is heard over the radio.
He was carrying out his mission perfectly even when Hyunseong and his party were chasing the Blood Demon.
-Did you have a harvest?
“any.”
But there was only very vague information.
If we continue to try to obtain information by only selecting those who are blood demons, it will take several years before we see any progress.
Hyunseong looked at the remnants of the homeless on one side.
‘I guess I’ll have to ask these guys.’
-To these guys? Do you think they have any useful information?
‘No matter how careful you are, there might be a few sharp-witted guys working under you who might have some good information.’
The guy who was a blood demon didn’t seem to have a very meticulous personality at first glance.
If that’s the case, he must have unknowingly leaked a clue somewhere.
‘That doesn’t fall into the category of betrayal.’
-Yes, I think I know what you mean.
This is also how they used to track their blood cult in the past.
“Shouldn’t we send the Awakened ones back before interrogation?”
“That’s true, but…”
The problem is that the cave collapsed.
The equipment of the Awakened ones inside are also buried together.
Hyunseong gritted his teeth as he looked at Elena and Macheon River, who were wondering what to do.
“What is there to worry about?”
“huh?”
“Just hand over all the equipment to those bums.”
Unlike the Awakened who were held captive, the vagabonds were properly equipped.
These guys didn’t trust each other so much that it seemed like they always had their best gear on or in their bags.
Some quick-witted guys even grabbed their bags and left.
“but.”
Elena nodded.
The original purpose was to catch the Blood Demons, but the vagabonds were just as bad.
“It’s a good thing this is a homeless base.”
Since there are more vagabonds than awakened ones, there is no need to worry about lack of equipment.
“Hey, this is our stuff!”
“Do you think we’ll just sit still?!”
Complaints heard among the homeless.
The guys still didn’t seem to know what their position was.
“Tyranny… I can make it so you don’t feel tyranny anymore.”
Kuung!
The shoulders of the vagabonds shook as she struck the ground with the sickle she had on her shoulder.
“Ah, even if you took down the leader, this many…”
“Hey, hey.”
“What? Why?”
“You don’t know those people?”
“?”
He was about to go out strongly, but was puzzled when people around him tried to stop him.
Although he didn’t know them, the other homeless people seemed to recognize them.
The person in front of you is an Awakened person who is called a living legend.
At that time, whenever I returned from the labyrinth, I was greeted like a triumphant general, and a face that I could not help but recognize, saying that I was the hope of humanity.
‘furthermore…’
Even snipers whose location is not even properly known.
No matter how many of them there are, it won’t take long for them to be sorted out.
“Well, it’s easier for us to just drop it and take it instead of stealing it.”
I wanted to ask what, but I didn’t have the courage.
Eventually, the items the vagabonds had were returned to the Awakened, and the Awakened kept bowing their heads in gratitude.
“Thank you! Thank you!”
It didn’t matter to them that Hyunseong was a skeleton.
Because I knew how the vagabonds treated their prisoners.
He was like a savior who saved me from death.
“From now on, I will never catch the undead again.”
“If there is a female skeleton with a good bone structure on the first floor, I will bring it.”
“Hey, that’s kidnapping.”
“Oh, then I will try to arrange a meeting.”
“… … ”
A gratitude that seems subtly twisted.
Ma Cheon-gang and Elena, who were listening from behind, held back their laughter that threatened to burst out.
In this situation, the awakened ones leave, and only the vagabonds remain.
“Okay, so shall we talk now?”
“Wh, what are you talking about?”
“What did we do wrong…?”
Elena almost beheaded him because it was disgusting to see a homeless person pretending to be a good person, but she endured it with superhuman patience.
Seeing that he didn’t reflect on the situation even after it became like this, it seemed like he needed to be properly punished.
“Tell me everything you know about your boss.”
“That, that…”
“Actually, we don’t know much either.”
“He wasn’t originally the leader, but he suddenly became strong…”
From what I’ve heard, it seems like he was originally just a homeless person who suddenly became strong.
While interrogating the vagrants one by one, one of them opened his mouth as if he had remembered something.
“That guy probably became like that after he went to Spider Canyon.”
“Spider Canyon?”
Hyunseong tilts his head at the place name he is hearing for the first time.
but,
“Ugh, there?”
“My head hurts.”
Ma Cheon-gang and Elena showed a knowing reaction.
“Do you know this place?”
“It’s a little, no, quite annoying there.”
As the name suggests, the terrain was not suitable for fighting.
While humans have difficulty fighting, spiders can move freely through their webs and even attack.
The spiders that came out were of a decent standard for the third floor, but everything else was problematic.
“Even if you go through all that trouble to catch it, the reward is the same as when you catch any other monster.”
“Now that I look at it, it’s called the worst hunting ground on the third floor of the Awakened.”
It seemed like the two of them had experience hunting in that Spider Canyon.
“If no one comes, that means it’s the perfect place to hide.”
“That’s true.”
“The problem is that it is that hard to find.”
“It’s called that because the most famous area nearby is Spider Canyon, and it’s incredibly large.”
“To what extent?”
“It must be as wide as a hundred thousand mountains.”
“crazy.”
Swear words came out of my mouth naturally.
If there are guys who have decided to hide in such a place, even finding them would be close to a miracle.
“If it were certain that it exists, I would look into it.”
It was just a hint that there might be something, so I couldn’t help but hesitate.
The problem was that they had to go themselves since they didn’t have any people to mobilize.
However, it is not possible to ignore the clues that have been found with difficulty.
Ma Cheon-gang, who had been lost in thought for a moment, soon opened his mouth.
“Let’s split up for a moment.”
“what?”
“First, Elena and I will head towards Spider Canyon. Contact me when we find information.”
“Then me?”
“You first need to level up.”
Hyunseong was still growing and there was a party.
It seemed necessary to raise the power to the maximum, as we didn’t know what kind of enemy would pop out from the blood sect.
“Can two of us do it?”
“You can take advantage of those who have helped me in the meantime.”
Unlike Elena, who was in seclusion, Ma Cheon-gang, who was doing business, had connections with Awakened people here and there.
Since the main objective was reconnaissance, not combat, if we could get help from those Awakened, we could quickly investigate Spider Canyon.
“I’ll match you with a blood demon later, so get stronger until then.”
“No, I caught it once, so you catch it this time.”
“It was your original role to catch the enemy leader. I’m in charge of catching the scoundrels on the side.”
“That guy got strong by practicing really hard.”
“If you admit that I am stronger, I will fight you.”
“No, absolutely not.”
“Okay, then you fight.”
“Here we go again.”
Elena looks bored.
When I saw them fighting childishly, I felt like there was no other child left.
At that moment, some homeless people approached him and asked him.
“So what should we do now?”
“What should I do?”
“I don’t have any equipment, so anything…”
“Oh, that?”
At the tramp’s words, she rummaged through her bag, took out an item, and handed it to the tramp.
It had a handle that looked comfortable to hold, a sturdy stick, and a triangular head at the end.
A homeless person staring blankly at the object commonly called a shovel.
“What is this…?”
“I’ll replace your equipment.”
“Is this a shovel?”
“Oh, do you see that over there?”
She points to the collapsed cave.
“Look for the equipment inside there. There’s probably still a lot left.”
“… … ”
The tramp swallowed the curse that was on the tip of his tongue.
No matter what you say here, it won’t turn out well.
Anyway, it is true that there is equipment inside, so if these people cooperate and dig the land…
“Oh, but I only have one shovel.”
“… … ”
“If I had known this would happen, I would have brought more. What a pity.”
She smiles with an expression that shows no regret at all.
Suddenly, he felt the gazes of the homeless people targeting the shovel in his hand.
And soon after, a fight broke out among the vagabonds.
“You’re trying to steal that too? As expected, homeless people have a different way of thinking.”
“But, can I just give it to you?”
“A shovel?”
“No, not the shovel. I mean the items inside.”
The equipment buried in the cave would also be quite valuable.
She nodded as if it didn’t matter to Hyunseong’s words.
“Anyway, by the time we dig that cave and retrieve the items, the Awakened ones who returned here will have arrived with their guild. It’s a shame that I won’t be able to see their expressions.”
“and…”
Hyunseong exclaimed in admiration at the thoroughly calculated evil.
