Regression Sword Apocalypse Reconquest - Chapter 65
Only Noblemtl
Episode 65
‘When you’re sick, the best thing to do is to drink a bowl of hot porridge and rest.’
For people who were so hungry that they were practically digging up dirt, if you just boiled rice in water, they would eat it like crazy.
A proper death to those people.
A delicious dish that will strengthen your body and mind.
It was the dish everyone wanted the most.
“Good ingredients, and a good chef. Aren’t you jealous?”
Goh Jeong-hwan’s cooking talent.
A giant mushroom material that holds great power.
You never know how delicious the food will be if those two come together.
Boksulboksul is also swallowing her saliva without realizing it.
Sehyuk smiled at the sight.
“But there is a condition.”
“what?”
“Flesh of a river predator. Give me that fish. That’s the amount of food needed to keep the starving people alive.”
The fluffy, fluffy fur I was worrying about.
“Yeah. Since you guys can’t leave here anyway, I don’t think you’ll betray me. Use it well.”
“Let’s just cut it off a little for now.”
He ended up cutting off some fish meat and handing it over to Sehyuk.
Sehyuk immediately took the fish meat and headed to Bokseul Bokseul’s kitchen.
Behind him, his colleagues follow in, taking out sacks of rice and other ingredients from the car.
‘It was a wise move to bring a lot of food in case of an unexpected situation.’
Sehyuk put the fish meat down next to him and looked at the newly acquired mushroom.
With just these two items, you can cure all the fluffy, malnourished, starving castaways.
‘Of course, I don’t plan on using it all. But I can still see results even if I leave some behind.’
A mushroom that came out after catching a giant mushroom.
Sehyuk can be certain of this because it is material that he also knows for sure.
‘I never thought this would come out here too.’
An ingredient guide created by someone who pursued cooking before returning.
Sehyuk also had the opportunity to obtain the materials encyclopedia.
This mushroom was listed as a Unique+ grade material in the Pokedex.
Sehyuk tried to recall his memories.
[Ancient Spore Giant Mushroom]
[Disease resistance, stamina, and magic power greatly increased]
[Permanent increase effect when consumed over a certain amount]
A material that greatly enhances human physical abilities, permanently.
The effect will be weaker if you consume a small amount, but since the original ingredients are strong and you will be adding other ingredients, this amount is enough.
‘There’s such material. This area certainly seems to have its own ecosystem, much more powerful than the one outside.’
Everyone starts cooking together.
“Since everyone is sick, let’s make some porridge. There’s nothing better than this for making small amounts.”
Sehyuk and Choi Sunghyun are in charge of preparing the ingredients neatly.
Go Jeong-hwan is in charge of general management.
Fish and mushrooms are good ingredients for broth.
And as the saying goes, if the soup is tasty, the porridge will be tasty too.
“Wow, this is crazy. I really want to be the first to have a ladleful.”
There was something different, from the smell of the bubbling pot.
Rich and salty, with a deep, rich mushroom flavor.
Not only Go Jeong-hwan, who was sticking close to the cooking, but also Choi Seong-hyeon, who was helping him, was licking his lips.
“You guys should make it and eat it later. I’m going to give you the remaining ingredients first anyway.”
“Really?”
“Yeah. You have to invest as much as you put in effort.”
Anyway, I was planning to invest all the remaining materials in my colleagues.
Because it will greatly increase your physical abilities.
Because his colleagues were in their first year, they couldn’t keep up with Sehyuk’s incredibly fast growth rate.
‘I can’t be the only one growing.’
When cooking is almost finished.
Cha Ye-seong cleaned all the dusty dishes that she hadn’t used for a long time.
“Here you go! Then I’ll go and have a drink.”
“Okay. Thanks for your hard work.”
According to Go Jeong-hwan, Cha Ye-seong’s cooking skills are nothing short of a disaster.
So Se-hyeok desperately tried to stop Cha Ye-seong from touching the cooking.
Instead, I was given the job of washing the cooking utensils and dishes, which were quite a lot.
Sehyuk and his party slowly began to scoop up the porridge into bowls and carry it outside.
To the large concrete underground plaza where people were lying.
As Sehyuk and his party came out carrying the porridge, Bokseul Bokseul, who had been checking the condition of the people in the square, suddenly raised his large body.
“I will help too.”
“Fluffy. Eat something first.”
“My men and I are okay, so give it to the sick people first. I’ll help too.”
Bokseul Bokseul and his men receive the bowls and begin to slowly distribute them to the people.
Some of his subordinates even served porridge to those who could not eat their own food.
There were people with injured arms, wrapped in bloody rags, and people who were so skinny they couldn’t even move.
And then the effects of the porridge began to show.
The first person that Boksulboksul started to feed was an old man who had turned into a skeleton.
He was a man with sunken eye sockets, just breathing, like a corpse.
“The elderly cannot hunt for food outside.”
In Sehyuk’s opinion, he seemed to be someone who had become so weak from hunger that he had even fallen into a coma.
“We also tried hard to get food from outside and feed them, but we were all dying, so there was nothing we could do.”
Saying those words, he poured porridge into the mouth of the old man who was dying with great effort.
Grind it well so that it is edible.
The moment I put a few spoonfuls of that food in my mouth.
“eww….”
The old man who had his eyes closed opened them.
People nearby rushed over and helped the old man up.
That wasn’t all.
The castaways of another world who were literally drying up and waiting for death.
A breath of hope began to blow upon them again.
“Crazy. It’s so delicious….”
People who have been starving for a long time are desperately eating porridge.
Among them, there was a couple who hurriedly fed their young child porridge.
There were even people who shed tears while praising the deliciousness of the porridge they had eaten after a long time.
One thing was certain.
“Thank you, I really appreciate it.”
Thanks to Sehyuk and his group, we were able to find our daily lives again after a long time.
And, for the first time in a long time, I felt hope again.
After a while.
Sehyuk looked at the people sitting on the floor.
Everyone is much more at peace after eating the porridge.
Color returned to the faces of those who had been dying withered and black faces.
The faces of people who were hungry and tired are now full of life.
“Oh, if only I could eat food like this all the time.”
“Honestly, if I had to choose between the 100,000 won omakase and this porridge, I would choose the porridge.”
The closest aides of Boksul Boksul, who hand out porridge to people and are the last to receive the porridge.
Their faces were bright with smiles as they talked.
And then, Bokseul Bokseul, who was holding the dead body, approached Sehyuk.
“Thank you so much.”
His face was very serious.
“I don’t know how to repay this favor.”
There was not an inch of falsehood on Boksulboksul’s face as he said those words.
“What are you doing when you know that?”
Sehyuk gave Bokseul Bokseul a gentle smile.
I had a gut feeling.
Finally, Boksulboksul opened her heart.
“What does that mean?”
“If you’re grateful, how about continuing to trust me in the future?”
Saying that, Sehyuk held out his hand.
“I’m looking for people I can trust.”
The fluffy, fluffy fur I was worrying about.
He finally made up his mind and grabbed Sehyuk’s hand tightly.
“Please take care of me.”
* * *
A few days passed.
First, Sehyuk and his party finished negotiations to recruit the castaways who followed Boksul Boksul.
The people led by Boksulboksul have also expressed their intention to join Sehyuk and his group if they escape from here.
It seems that Bokseul Bokseul’s leadership was pretty good.
First, there were many people who said they would follow Boksul Boksul.
The people who were hesitating also all made up their minds to follow Bokseul Bokseul after she persuaded them.
‘As expected, I was good at reading people.’
Bokseul Bokseul was a really good person.
Worth a visit here.
And, Bokseul Bokseul asked Sehyuk and his group one more favor.
“Everyone has temporarily regained their energy, but we still have no food. So, won’t you help us?”
“I think I know what you’re trying to say.”
Sehyuk was also about to bring up that topic.
“Are you planning to clear the grassland and grow crops?”
This was something that had already been discussed.
Sehyuk also felt the need for this work.
‘Since we are staying here in order to escape this area, we need to solve the problem of food to eat while we are here.’
And, Sehyuk had something in mind.
Let’s get to work right away.
After quite some time, Fluffy led his men to clear the field.
When I asked how they got the seeds, they said they just collected and stored the good ones from the grasses that people ate.
A field where seeds are sown.
Before that, Sehyuk put into practice the alternative he had brought.
The idea is to bring in Cha Ye-seong and a small dragon.
Small dragons can use all basic magic of the lowest level.
And among them, there is also magic related to growth.
Here, Cha Ye-seong joins in by additionally sharing the magic power of a small dragon.
Co-casting.
By sharing the magical power required for magic, you can use magic more powerfully and efficiently.
And Cha Ye-seong takes out the key tool.
The autumn twilight sun given by the fairy.
The strengthening effect that becomes more powerful through joint casting is also called the amplification of the beneficial effects of the crystal ball.
The effect was amazing.
The golden magic of the autumn twilight sun that brilliantly illuminates the fields.
In an instant, green shoots emerge from the brown soil, grow, and the grain ripens and turns golden.
It reached a level where it could be eaten with just one magic.
‘I thought it would grow well since it has its own growth bonus in this area, but it has grown very well.’
“Oh, oh!”
Boksulboksul, who was watching the sight, was amazed.
Fluffy, rubbing her eyes.
It seemed like he shed tears at the sight.
“What are you doing? Let’s start harvesting quickly!”
When Cha Ye-seong and the little dragon use magic, the waiting Fluffy’s subordinates rush in and cut the grass with their sickles.
Before they knew it, quite a few bales of straw had piled up in front of them.
Besides, is it because of the influence of the environment and magic power?
The crops that grew also had special effects.
It has some stamina and magic boosting effects, as well as satiety-related corrections, although not as much as mushrooms.
“It seems like the food problem has been solved to some extent.”
One night, after the grain was organized in the warehouse, everyone finished their work and went out to rest.
Sehyuk had a conversation with Bokseul Bokseul.
What to do next.
The meal is resolved, but the situation is not completely over.
First of all, most of Boksul Boksul’s followers are not in good condition.
Although the immediate hunger problem has been resolved, there are still many people injured and unable to fight.
‘I’ve taken care of it temporarily, but we need to get out quickly or find an alternative and fix it.’
Because there are no proper medicines here.
Now is the time to evacuate the survivors from this area.
We need to get out as quickly as possible.
In this strange area, where all the survivors who had come had disappeared.
And then a question arises in Sehyuk’s mind.
Doubts that have not yet been resolved.
‘What on earth could have happened that made all the people who came disappear? If it’s to this extent, it can’t be completely impossible.’
What secrets lie hidden in this area.
And why did all the people who came here before the return disappear?
The reason was not even mentioned in the future book.
I just saw the monsters here and the answers on how to solve the abnormal phenomenon.
‘Maybe, if you go there yourself, you’ll know.’
I have a feeling that’s going to happen.
And then the next day.
An incident occurred.
“Fluffy, what is this? I trusted you and left it in your care.”
“I’m really sorry. I have no idea what’s going on….”
Flesh of a river predator.
That unique grade material disappeared somewhere overnight.
And, Sehyuk found out while digging into the truth of this incident.
Why this place became an urban legend.
One story that seems to have something to do with destruction.
The secrets of this area.
At the same time, Sehyuk came into possession of several powerful items that held secrets.
