S-Class Hunter Heals with Monsters - Chapter 160

Episode 160: Sulae arrives in Gold City
Lee Young-ho, a resident of Gold City.
He was an unemployed man who had never worked before.
Although he was unemployed, he was also a bum who lived with all kinds of luxury goods thanks to his good parents.
He, whose hobby is browsing occult sites, turned on his computer as usual today.
In fact, it’s just a word for occult, but in today’s world where monsters and gates exist, the occult is no longer a superstition.
“Let’s see. The newly uploaded photo… What is this? A mermaid monster appears in the East Sea?”
The first thing that came up was a post about a half-human, half-fish with a lower body that looked like a shark.
Someone from far away took photo number 49.
“Isn’t this a duplicate photo? There was a comment saying that the same photo had appeared before and that hunters were going to catch it.”
Those hunters were captured by Cheon Do-un and reborn as slum cleaners.
He had no way of knowing that at this very moment, someone was sweeping the slums with all his might.
As he was looking around to see if there were any new articles, his eyes stopped at an interesting title.
“Chimeras poured out of the slums?”
This is a hot new post that just came up. When I clicked on it, pictures and videos started to pop up.
Footage shows dozens of chimeras running wild in a square.
Lee Young-ho’s eyes sparkled when he saw that.
“Wow, that’s crazy. Chimeras appearing in the middle of the city? And this many?”
Slums. A lawless city that I’ve only heard of.
What kind of place is it that such absurd things happen?
Lee Young-ho looked at the comments.
-It’s not normal for chimeras to appear all at once like that.
-Isn’t there an illegal research lab in the slums?
-That’s it. What kind of neighborhood is that? Is there an illegal research lab in this day and age? Lol.
-Can you live with anxiety? I wish they would push out areas like that and get rid of them.
As soon as the photo was posted, comments poured in.
There were also comments that immediately mentioned the illegal research lab as if they had been waiting for it.
Although hired people started the public opinion war through comments, Lee Young-ho, a mere site user, had no way of knowing about it.
He was swept up in the atmosphere of the comments and put his hands on the keyboard.
-Is there really an illegal research lab? Does it make sense that there are so many chimeras in the city?
After writing the comment like that, I pressed enter. But I was still not satisfied, so I wrote the comment again.
-I also think that cities like that should disappear. What is the government doing? Just throw them away.
Now I kind of like it. Lee Young-ho nodded with a satisfied expression.
A city where chimeras roam the streets? For the safety of its citizens, such places should disappear.
‘But what happens to the people who live there when the slums disappear?’
People who lose their homes and jobs in an instant and are pushed to the edge of a cliff.
He thought about it for a moment, but then chuckled.
I don’t know anything about that. I just thought it would be good if it disappeared because it seemed like a dangerous area.
“Wow. The comments are really good.”
As it is a provocative video, provocative comments increased in real time.
The debate is whether there really are illegal laboratories in the slums.
I couldn’t help but get involved in this hilarious comment war.
“I guess I should play here today.”
Lee Young-ho placed his hands on the keyboard with an excited look on his face.
Ta-da-dak, ta-da-dak. Every time my hand moved, the comments increased.
-The slums are a dangerous area where chimeras appear! We can’t leave them alone. They have to disappear quickly.
After pressing enter, I thought for a moment and then added a new comment below.
-I went there and it was a really dangerous neighborhood. I saw someone stab a passerby with a knife and run away.
Of course, he had never witnessed it. He had grown up well as the son of a wealthy family and had never even set foot in a slum.
But this kind of thing needs to be seasoned to get a good response.
“Oh, I see the reaction is coming in.”
Lee Young-ho was thrilled when many people agreed with his comment.
For a jobless keyboard warrior, life would be a waste of joy without this.
He chuckled and commented enthusiastically.
It was three minutes before the Chimera army appeared in Gold City.
* * *
At that time, Cheon Do-woon and his party arrived at Gold City.
The place they arrived was a mountain villa far from the city.
Cheon Do-woon looked around. He could see the Gold City scenery below the mountain.
“Okay. It’s okay because it doesn’t attract people’s attention and the distance is just right.”
Cheon Do-woon saw a butterfly. The butterfly, which recognized the signal, flew into the sky.
Every time the wings flapped, a speck of light fell. In the midst of that sparkle, the body inflated in an instant.
A giant monster that is over 100 meters long.
As the butterfly returned to its original form, a huge shadow filled the sky.
“I go first. You just fly gently over Gold City.”
-Agreed. Positive. Got it. That’s my job.
The butterfly flapped its wings.
As my friend started flying, the flying squirrel also jumped down the mountain.
Kim Na-ri, who saw that, was troubled. What kind of change should she make?
Kim Na-ri nodded while watching the Coconut Family.
“I decided!”
Kim Na-ri’s body turned into silver liquid and collapsed.
The pile of clothes that had fallen down shook, and a poodle’s face popped out from within.
-king!
It looked like a poodle, but it had wings on its back.
The wings were round and translucent like those of a butterfly.
The tail copied that of a fox. In imitation of a scorpion, a flower bloomed on its head.
“Are your legs like horse legs?”
-King, king!
The answer was yes.
Although they couldn’t communicate verbally, the wagging tail conveyed Kim Na-ri’s feelings.
“It’s good. I can tell it’s a chimera at a glance.”
-king!
Kim Na-ri spun around in place at Cheon Do-woon’s praise.
“Okay. Now, let’s all go. I’m the one who’s being chased. I’ll leave a little later than you guys.”
-king!
Kim Na-ri looked back at the chimeras.
I gave the signal and ran down the mountain, the chimeras following me.
The chimeras immediately figured out what this game was, having played tag in the forest every day.
After the chimeras left, Cheon Do-un sat on a nearby rock.
He took out a sack from his fanny pack. As expected from a sleepy servant, the sack was nodding off.
‘I have some time to spare. I should give Dodak a massage while I wait.’
During that time, Dodak-i didn’t take off his mask, so he couldn’t give him a massage. He thought the surface would have become rough, but his expectations were wrong.
“It’s moist…?”
The condition of the roots of the Dodak was quite good.
It looked so moist and smooth, just like when I used a moisturizing cream.
Just then, as I was wondering what was going on, I saw Doppel hanging on Dodak’s side.
‘Could it be… because of the doppelganger?’
Doppel is a fertilizer-type chimera. I remembered that Doppel was always attached to Dodak’s side.
Could it be that the fertilizer component that Doppel possessed was passed on to Dodak?
‘Let’s try it.’
Cheon Do-woon grabbed the doppel and held it. The doppel burst in his hand.
“Tongue, bro!
Nam Ki-seok shouted in surprise. Cheon Do-woon smiled and waved his hand.
In his palm was a doppel that had returned to its liquid metal form.
“This is a doppelganger. A creature without a definite form. To return it to its original form, its form must be destroyed.”
“Oh, I see. I was surprised because I thought you were going to kill me.”
Cheon Do-woon pressed the doppel, which had become liquid metal, with his palm.
When it became flat like a dumpling skin, I rolled it up.
Dodak, who became Kimmal.
Doppel clung to Dodak’s body without any hesitation.
“Uh… I think Doppel likes it.”
“That’s right. Judging from the reaction, it looks like you’ve been giving Dodak some fertilizer.”
Doppel loved to stick to plants. He loved to share his fertilizer components with the plants.
That is the meaning of one’s existence.
Because it was made that way, the dodak instinctively hung on the side to share nutrients.
“Thanks to that, the moist condition of the dodak is maintained… but Doppel needs some rest. Come to think of it, the stocks were dirt and grass, right?”
Cheon Do-woon looked around. There was no grass because it was winter, but there was a lot of dirt.
He took off the doppel and handed it to Nam Ki-seok.
“Nam Ki-seok, you wait here and feed Doppel.”
“Me?”
“Yes. Since it’s a mountain, you can just let it loose on the ground. You take care of it so it doesn’t get lost.”
He looked down the mountain, leaving Doppel with a nanny.
I saw a butterfly flying over the city.
By now, people with quick action will be taking photos and videos and uploading them in real time.
“Should I go and catch it?”
Cheon Do-woon stood up and shook off his seat.
The tagger in tag has moved.
* * *
Kim Na-ri is excited right now.
Have you ever been so excited and running around?
‘It’s fun!’
Kim Na-ri ran along the road with her horse legs that had turned into hooves.
The sound of horse hooves echoed cheerfully every time they ran.
“What the heck, it’s a monster!”
“Run away!”
“Why is there a chimera here…! Is that a chimera?”
There were screams coming from all sides, but that made it even more fun.
‘It wasn’t like this when I ran away before.’
When I ran away from the lab, people chased me.
A hunter shooting a gun, a civilian with a club, and a researcher running towards them with a stun gun.
They were all trying to catch him. It was scary then, but now it was different.
‘People aren’t scary anymore!’
Who knew you could run around the city like this?
It wasn’t just Kim Na-ri who was excited. The chimeras from Hanbit Research Institute were also excited and running.
Of course, people who saw it weren’t thrilled at all.
“Eww! What the heck is going on!”
Occult maniac Lee Young-ho ran through the city screaming.
Throughout the city, the alarm from the Hunter Association was ringing.
People ran to shelters amid the loud sound of sirens.
The light dust pouring down from the sky was beautiful, but to the evacuees, it felt like a means of attack that blinded their vision and confused their minds.
“Bomb shelter… Just hold out until the bomb shelter!”
“We have to dodge before that giant monster attacks in earnest!”
People shouted. As it was Gold City, the bunkers were well-equipped.
As long as we get there, we’ll be safe. The problem is that we’re moving too slowly.
Lee Young-ho looked up.
Every time the giant chimera flapped its wings, a gust of wind accompanied by light dust blew in.
Objects were flying everywhere. Books and flyers that someone had dropped flew through the air. Cars parked on the road were pushed over.
“Soo, I can’t breathe…! I feel like I’m going to be blown away by the wind!”
“Get down! Grab something and hold on!”
It’s a disaster. Just a few minutes ago I was leisurely surfing the internet at home. What the heck is this?
Lee Young-ho lay flat on the floor and crawled forward.
It was only a few minutes ago that I was joking around on an occult site, leaving comments like “Get rid of the slums.”
‘I told you to get rid of it because it’s a city infested with chimeras!’
I never thought a chimera would appear in Gold City.
Was this a punishment for easily ignoring someone else’s business? Lee Young-ho groaned and moved forward.
“Hey, the monster is coming!”
Someone shouted. I looked up and saw a monster running towards me.
Slowly, slowly.
The sound of horse hooves echoed as Kim Na-ri ran. The wings on her back flapped.
-king!
The cute poodle’s whine sounded like the roar of the hellhound Cerberus to Lee Young-ho.
Behind it was a sapling waddling with its roots.
Next to me, an ant the size of a palm came running.
Starting with that, about thirty chimeras came running down the road.
“Hey, what is that?”
Is this what the Hell Legion is like?
“Oh, I’m getting stepped on…!”
I might get eaten.
Lee Young-ho shut his eyes tightly in shock. At that moment, a loud thud rang out.
When I opened my eyes, I saw a crater-like depression in the asphalt. Someone was standing in the middle of it.
-Wow… King!
When they saw him, the chimeras stopped with a squeak and stepped back.
What on earth is going on? Who is the author that the monsters are reacting like that?
Lee Young-ho’s mouth opened in surprise. At that moment, someone recognized the man in the crater and shouted.
“S-class Hunter…! An old-time S-class Hunter!”
“That’s the guy in the article!”
“I survived. An S-class hunter has arrived!”
People cheered. Lee Young-ho also joined in and raised his hand.
“Woooooo!”
He survived. Lee Young-ho cheered in relief.
On the other hand, Kim Na-ri and the chimeras were surprised and scattered.
The drunkard has arrived.
