The Anti-Intellectualism Demon King’s World Invasion - Chapter 116



Only Noblemtl

Episode 116

By the way, the ship that the Goldtooth Pirates brought was a fire boat filled with urine.

Goldtooth bought a fireboat from Trash Island a while ago.

I never thought it would be used like this.

I imagined the smell of urine raining down on the gray dome.

I felt a shiver run down my spine without realizing it.

I wonder if it was the same for other people.

“Ugh.”

“Whew!”

He shuddered and made sounds similar to retching and groaning.

Those Goldtooth Pirates guys, they must have some kind of trust so they attacked the apartment.

So, that means someone knew the secret of the defensive shield.

I don’t know who that is, but this is really dangerous.

“I made a guess about urine based on information I had heard before.”

I answered Director Park.

“So what happened? Did the Goldtooth Pirates break through the defense shield and enter the apartment?”

– No. Hoyoung was able to stop it with great effort.

– Sir, after I opened the defense shield, I asked Director Park to attack the fire boat.

– Detective Kim said that we shouldn’t rely solely on the defensive shield, so he had the foresight to install a tower crane catapult on the apartment roof. And because he had practiced, he was able to throw the catapult accurately at the fire boat. It completely sank. Ah~!

Chief Park let out an exclamation full of regret.

– I guess they also knew the importance of the fireship. They failed to destroy the fireship because they had to turn around and rescue the ship that was advancing through the breached defense shield. The plan was to activate the defense shield when the advancing guys got inside, block their escape route, and then destroy them. But they took advantage of the gap in saving the fireship and drove the barge with the cannon to the brink of sinking. The cannon will probably not be able to fire for a while.

“What about the defensive shield?”

Bomi must have been worried because she intervened without my permission.

– The defense shield became thin and melted after being hit by the urine rain. There were a couple of holes, but they were small enough for one or two boats to pass through, so we sent a patrol boat to guard in front of it. Fortunately, there has been no further attack yet, perhaps because of the power of the tower crane catapult.

“Phew, that’s a relief.”

Bomi breathed a sigh of relief, but the fire boat survived because the embers were still there.

“Please quickly call the Navy on Trash Island for help. They will definitely come to help.”

I signed a contract with the Navy, like a mutual defense treaty, so that if anything happens to my apartment, they can come running right away.

– That’s right. I already contacted you.

“I called you. Are you not coming?”

– That’s right, it looks like the ark ships have appeared on Trash Island. So they’re also on high alert there.

What is this? Is this a diversionary operation?

Well then the situation is pretty serious.

What is the connection between the Ark Church and the Goldtooth Pirates?

It seems certain, given that we know that the defensive shield is damaged by Sophie.

If there is any force that knows about the weakness of the defensive shield that we do not know about, it would be the Bangju Church that has even the slightest connection to the Dragon Palace.

No, there is also a star priest.

Whether it was the Ark Church or the Star Lords, the Goldtooth Pirates seemed more dangerous than I thought.

For now, I’ve blocked it well in the apartment, but I don’t know what kind of tricks they’ll come up with next.

And the northern and eastern parts of our autonomous region, Garbage Island, were also problematic.

The Navy would block it, but Trash Island had a long defense line and didn’t have a defense system as strong as an apartment building.

Even if the northern and eastern parts of Trash Island were like that, the apartments were our home port.

If the apartment was gone, normal survival, such as supplying supplies or resting, would be impossible.

It would be no different from the Republic of Korea without Seoul.

I have to go back right now, if only to protect my apartment.

But would Bomi agree?

Bomi was angry and insisted that they quickly go and rescue Jiyeon.

I also found experimenting with trumpets and tridents to be a waste of time and was not very fond of it.

Still, I thought it was more important to secure our rear.

If Bomi objects, I plan to ignore it and go back.

I am the leader who leads the apartment complex and Hallasan Lake.

I was about to open my mouth to announce my decision.

At that moment, Bomi hit the player.

“Sir! What are you doing? We need to go back quickly.”

I was bewildered by the unexpected words and asked Bomi.

“Go back? Where to?”

“Of course it’s the apartment. Didn’t you hear what I just said? There was a hole in the defense shield. We need to save Hoyoung quickly. And the apartment residents too.”

“Oh. Of course. But what about Jiyeon?”

“Delay. Jiyeon will be okay. She’s held up well so far. Even if she’s a few days late, what could happen if she’s a priestess?”

Bomi shrugged and answered.

But why did you insist on going to rescue Jiyeon so hastily?

Knowing Bomi’s impatient personality, I didn’t bother to find fault with her.

“Sir, let’s leave quickly. Oppa Jungwoo! Let’s go.”

As soon as Bomi made up her mind, she threw a tantrum and said that they should leave right away.

“Ah! That’s right, sir! We have to get on the cruise ship too.”

“pleasure boat?”

“Yes. I heard it was going to be used as a commercial-residential complex.”

“Oh, right.”

“The fastest way to get to the apartment is to go against the tide anyway. So there’s no reason not to take a cruise ship. If you put it behind the Hallasan, it will automatically follow.”

I originally intended to park the Royal Flower here long term.

The Royal Flower had lost her anchor and was unable to stay anchored.

So the idea was to create a small circle of currents and have the Royal Flower hover here.

Later, after I rescued Jiyeon, the cruise ship would still be parked here, so I planned to just tow it up, but Bomi unexpectedly gave me a good idea.

Since we have to take a cruise ship anyway, it would be better to just take it with us.

“Clap clap! Stop playing around. Hurry up. Let’s move quickly. The apartment is desperately waiting for our help.”

Bomi clapped her hands and made Jungwoo, Jinman, and even Nurse Jang run around.

Then he turned to me and said.

“Sir! You’ll have to make a big move. I won’t let you.”

“Haha. Bomi, you really need to brace yourself for seasickness.”

* * *

Jinman appeared, swaying at the stern of Hallasan Mountain.

Jinman raised his hands above his head and waved them, but his hands kept coming down and grabbing the railing of the boat.

Not only was I seasick, but the rocking of the boat was so severe that I could have fallen over if I didn’t hold on to the railing.

Oh! The apartment finally appeared.

Jinman’s awkwardly raised hand gesture was a sign of arrival.

The trident that was striking the sea as quickly as knocking and the trumpet that was continuously shooting out whirlpools stopped.

Then the rough waves of the endlessly rushing current began to subside.

As soon as I put down my trident and trumpet, my muscles ached all over my body as if I had just finished a marathon.

During that time, I had to keep creating new birds without even a breath due to Bomi’s urging.

But I couldn’t rest as I got closer to the apartment.

So far, we’ve only just laid the groundwork, and now we need to board the Hallasan and prepare to attack the Goldtooth Pirates.

Oh! That’s right. There’s something I have to do before that.

I turned around and looked back.

“Ahh~”

I groaned without realizing it, and my joints creaked and screamed.

Even though the wind wasn’t blowing, it was a bit too much to walk a distance that would take five days and come back in a day and a half.

If I hadn’t noticed the bubbles in the middle, I would have done it in one day.

As I turned my head, I saw a large cruise ship hanging on the tail of the bird.

It was the Royal Flower.

The Royal Flower was being pulled by the current like a dog on a leash.

Before leaving for the apartment, despite Bomi’s urging, I developed a tidal current that I named the tail knot.

Taking inspiration from the currents of Trash Island, the currents were designed to pull in anything that floats at the end of the current.

I took up the trident again and struck the surface firmly.

As he swung his trident deep enough to send a spray of water flying overhead, the current snapped like a thread cut with scissors.

I blew my trumpet towards the bird with the severed tail.

The tail knot’s current, which was shaped like a hook, changed its shape into a circle due to the whirlwind I blew.

The cruise ship, which remained in the knot, began to spin round and round following the circular current.

Okay. Royal Flower Hotel parking complete.

I raised my hand and twirled my index finger.

Then Jinman started pulling the pulley connected to the boat I was riding on.

Although it was called a boat, a board slightly larger than a surfboard approached the Hallasan lake.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

As I boarded the Hallasan ship, Bomi, with a haggard face that looked like she had just come back from the dead, crawled over to greet me.

“It’s me. Bomi had a hard time.”

I smiled as if it wasn’t difficult at all and climbed onto the bridge.

Jungwoo, who was holding the key, also looked quite tired, perhaps because of the rough voyage.

He patted Jungwoo on the shoulder and asked.

“how is it?”

“We kept enough distance that the pirates probably didn’t notice us.”

I took out my telescope and looked ahead.

The peak of the defensive shield dome was vaguely visible above the horizon.

I guess I’ll have to go up a bit more to see the Goldtooth Pirates.

I left the bridge and climbed up the watchtower mounted on the tip of the main mast.

Then the ship’s mast came into view through the telescope lens.

The flagpole erected at the top of the mast had a skull painted on a black background, and the skull’s teeth were yellow gold.

To get a closer look, I put on the safety harness and climbed up the watchtower.

The children below saw this and shouted.

“It’s dangerous, brother. Come down.”

“Are you okay, sir?”

I waved my hand to signal that it was okay, but I didn’t let go of the telescope with my other hand.
