The Reincarnation of Fusion Punk - Chapter 266



Only Noblemtl

#266. Onion of the Martial Arts World

#Episode 266.

The situation was resolved without damaging Hwangryun’s prestige.

I also saved the life of Rudolph, who was struck by lightning with a sword. I am probably the only great man who would draw his sword in front of the Seven Thrones for a guy like this.

Does this mean I’m a murderous, indiscriminate terrorist?

Look, world!

Kurururung——!

“The mountain prose of Su, Sungsan······has been punished by Buddha!”

Suddenly there was a clap of thunder, and one of the gatekeepers screamed, spitting out blood.

Kururururung—

The great split in two on both sides of Mt. Sung. The softly shining blue stone slabs were shattered and poured down. The valley of the Shaolin Mountain Gate was hit by the Qi wave and was torn apart into pieces.

A sight as if a giant had trampled Jin-gak.

Not only was the mountain gate wall that the Gwangbeop Seonsa had flown into destroyed, but the aftermath of the long battle that spread throughout Sungsan was extraordinary.

The matter has been settled, but the aftermath of the incident that occurred in front of Sungsan cannot be completely hidden.

This unfortunate incident was all because of Rudolph, so I bowed my head like a parent who was called in front of a teacher.

“I’m not that son of a bitch’s parent, but I’ll take responsibility and pay for it like a man.”

“A broken slab of stone can just be laid again······.”

White smoke spread into the air.

Monk Gwangbeop, looking up at Mt. Sungsan, quietly recited:

“Hwangryun’s anger won’t subside easily.”

Hwangryun’s personality is full of aftereffects, so be careful from now on.

However, since the Seven Seats cannot crawl to other cities, this is a story that only applies within Surtr City.

Rather, wouldn’t Shaolin be in more trouble for the time being?

I asked, worried about Ahimsa, who I had to leave to Shaolin.

“Shaolin seems to have been quite hated as well. Is that okay?”

“That’s nonsense. If he had really invaded Shaolin’s grounds and caused a ruckus, do you think even the Seven Seated Emperor would have been able to get away safely?”

“?”

Then, a sudden interruption occurred, and the dialogue began.

The ambassador immediately scolded him with an attitude that seemed to indicate his displeasure.

“Hwangryun is a person who is sensitive to status and power, so he probably wanted to put an end to all the rumors floating around the martial arts world. The reason why someone who doesn’t care about the city’s affairs is doing so is because it is an event to widely announce the existence of the Jeongpa Heaven. Who would dare to hate and be hostile to Shaolin?”

Twelve, Master Banggak.

He once sided with Shin Seung and worked hard as a leader, but now he seems to be trying to do his own thing in the Shaolin of the Light.

[ Let’s not interfere since you are not the room leader. ]

“······.”

Shudder.

When I gently stopped him with a soft voice, the Master Banggak’s mouth immediately closed like a clamshell, as if he was reminded of the time he had beaten Dylan during the expedition to Ragnarok. Although he was not as bad as Hwangryun, that middle-aged man was also quite unpleasant.

I, who sent the telegram, sympathized with Banggak’s words through my voice.

“That’s not wrong. The Ambassador is right. Shaolin is Shaolin.”

“······Ahem.”

However, Banggak’s words are not completely wrong. Even if they lost influence and were temporarily cowering due to the incident caused by Shinsung, Shaolin is Shaolin. Even Chiljwa would not do something to turn the entire Shaolin into an enemy.

Also, considering that Hwangryun acted in a narrow-minded manner despite his great fame, I think his confidence in breaking through even the Shaolin Mountains may have been a kind of bluff.

Did they intentionally create such a big fuss?

Anyway, I’ll be the only one who’ll suffer a loss since I’ve caught that Rudolph.

At that moment, the monk Gwangbeop opened his mouth.

“There are a lot of eyes watching now. You’d better get ready quickly.”

The monk turned his head. He saw the swans poking their heads out from above the sewer. Along with the birds that had not yet completely disappeared, the eyes shining from under the eaves of the pavilion were watching Sungsan.

Rumors will spread wildly again. Even if we leave other places aside, it is obvious that news of this battle will spread to the Baekmanbangdo, the portal of openness, as well as Beijing, Nanjing, and even the large cities of the Federation.

As I continued to look in that direction, the figures moved in unison and hid their bodies. Judging by their quick movements, they were not sloppy authors. Even in the martial arts world, they must have expected the situation to be serious, as strong auras were all gathered around Sungsan.

Shasha Sha—

Beggars are particularly quick to do this, even though they pretend not to know much. They’ve already come all the way to the neighborhood and watched everything. They’re probably ready to sell useless information like how fine the dust on Sungsan is.

I thought about it carefully.

The time of day given in Surtr······.

The plan I had in mind went awry.

It is a very short time to sort out and seek enlightenment from someone.

Ahimsa also cannot finish all the work with the monks in one day, so he just leaves it at Sungsan.

I was thinking about just chasing after Rudolph, but I was bothered by Hwang Ryun’s usual threat that he wouldn’t let him off easy next time.

【 Next is something you can never escape from 】

If you dare open your eyes wide in front of the Seven Seats, it means that I too will be taken out of Surtr.

The self-proclaimed martial arts world’s heaven is truly narrow-minded.

Wuwei is also a person who is very troublesome because he looks like a swordsman.

In the meantime, Rudolph was busy groaning.

“Ugh······Chiljwa······I’m angry······I’ll take revenge······.”

“Stop shaking and pretending to be sick. I have a few broken ribs, but I’m fine.”

“That’s better. My spine was split in two.”

“Hold on a little longer.”

“Brother, why are you being so cold in front of the patient?”

“You’re getting better now. You’ve learned some good external skills.”

“What, it hasn’t even been ten minutes······.”

“I like that external force.”

“······.”

When I praised the utility of external forces like a parrot, Rudolph sighed and sighed. Then he asked in a tone that was secretly filled with anticipation. While moving around like an invertebrate.

“Anyway, what, I’m the son of a blood demon or something? The most famous of the other species of vampires······.”

“It was just something I threw out there.”

“yes?”

“I don’t know much about blood horses. I know a little about Slemokin.”

“Hey, brother, think about it again. This isn’t a problem that can be overlooked. If not me, then who in the world will continue his progress?”

Gulp—

Blood is still gushing from Rudolph’s wounds.

It seems that he is still mentally unstable due to the shock from being stabbed by Hwangryun’s sword. Although he barely managed to survive by crawling on the dirt floor after being beaten, his external achievements will continue to grow.

“Do you feel like your achievements have increased somewhat?”

“I don’t know about that, but first of all, I feel really dizzy.”

“You are the first person in history to survive after being pierced by the Seven Seated Swords.”

“This is the talent of the Blood Horse······.”

“stop.”

Bam-

I knocked out Rudolph, who was bleeding profusely, by hitting his neck, and then stuffed a few of the elixirs that Shaolin had given him down his throat. Still, since he was half human, it seemed like the elixir was working. You could tell by the way his new flesh was growing.

“Can I leave you at Shaolin for today? I’ll come pick you up soon.”

“So be it.”

A high priest came and took Rudolph away.

I’m ready to go on a day trip to the martial arts world.

—!

A city near Sungsan at that time.

Since a while ago, I felt an ominous presence coming from one direction.

The size of the energy would be similar to that of all those who have now gathered at Sungsan. There is someone who possesses absolute power.

I shook off the eyes of the martial arts master who was following me and walked towards the place where I could feel the energy.

* * *

As I reached the back of the guest house.

An old man, holding a pine-patterned sword in his arms, leaning against the wall behind the bike-strewn guesthouse.

Swish-

“Jin-in, were you waiting for me?”

The shaman’s Jin Gong Jin appeared before me naturally.

This is the first time I’ve seen it since the sandstorm in Baldur City. I originally wanted to find Jin Gong-jin and Dokgo Woong-baek after watching the battle between powerful people like Ma-zon and Geuk-chang Ak-mu, and to organize my vague enlightenment for a long time.

“Are you coming from a shaman’s house?”

“I’m coming from Odin City. They say that the corpses around Odin City disappeared at the same time.”

“You came back from an investigation.”

“That’s right. It really is something unusual······.”

A strange occurrence where all the corpses near Odin have disappeared.

If it’s enough to call Odin, the leader of the Twelve, Jin Gong Jin, then it could be as important an event as the Ragnarok City Restoration Battle. Is Schnauzer Javier still wearing his squeaky shoes? Or is he slowly taking them off since the Federation is in chaos? I don’t know. He’ll figure it out.

At that time, Jin Gong-jin asked quietly.

“What’s going on with Hwangryun?”

Is that what you’ve been waiting to ask?

I explained to the vacuum cleaner that Rudolph was in a situation where he had corpse blood mixed in with his body, and it seemed like it had touched Hwangryun’s aura.

however.

After hearing the whole story, Jin Gong-jin began to explain as if he couldn’t understand it right away.

“Hwangryun is a warrior who has lived through the era when the Blood Horse was alive and the Great War. He is not so ignorant that he cannot tell the difference between the beasts that the people of Al Heimdall speak of.”

In Jin Gong-jin’s words, I found the source of the sense of discomfort I had been feeling.

“It is difficult to find one among the twelve emperors who does not know the existence of beasts, so it is incomprehensible that the Emperor does not know.”

If all that is said is true.

This means that Hwangryun did not just sense Rudolph’s energy by chance, but that he deliberately picked a fight with her.

What could have been simply considered bad luck and passed over was clearly leading to an ill-fated relationship with the Seventh-Chairman, Hwangryun.

I asked just in case.

“Isn’t it understandable to have some misunderstandings?”

“That can’t be true.”

However, Jin Gong-jin answered very firmly. Then he began to tell the things he knew about Hwang Lun’s personality.

“His nature is narrow-minded, cunning, and calculating. That’s why he doesn’t just act recklessly. Even if both his ears were cut off by the devil, he wouldn’t be the kind of person who would just now fail to discern the situation and run wild. There must have been a reason for him to do so.”

I could sense a hint of hostility toward Hwangryun in the tone of the vacuum that emphasized the narrow-mindedness. I also felt the same way, so I nodded appropriately. If you are in a position to know the true nature of Hwangryun, most people will feel the same way.

Once the waters had opened, Jin Gong-jin continued speaking.

“There is a group that secretly operates under the orders of Hwangryun. They used to follow us whenever we entered this city, but today, strangely, they are not here. Also, if we broaden our horizons, there used to be unidentified formations, but even those have disappeared as if they were washed away.”

So, that’s what Jin Gong-jin said.

“So you’re saying that after the Amazon Mengwu Gak visited Surtr, he quickly started erasing my traces?”

“Yes.”

“Why are you acting like that now? It looks like your ear has been injured for quite some time.”

“Because I, who was watching the wheel, left the city for Odin’s sake.”

“······.”

A master vacuum cleaner that will never be out of place no matter where you are in the world.

So the strongest of the twelve factions has been keeping the Seven Seated Emperor Huang Lun in check until now?

“I believe that the Seven-Leaded Emperor Huang Lun will one day betray him. The one who brought the blood of the traitors and corpses into this city is Huang Lun.”

“Jin-in, is there any evidence to support that?”

Their eyes crossed.

It was a very dangerous statement.

So much so that it could easily escalate into a war between the shaman and the Seven Guardians.

However, Jin Gong-jin’s voice was firm and did not waver at all. He seemed to be absolutely certain of the betrayal of the Seven-Leaded Emperor.

“It seems that he cut off the ear and left because he couldn’t immediately kill the Seven Seats who were protecting the city of Ma-Jon, but if Ma-Jon disappeared, he would choose to betray again. That’s the kind of person Hwang-Lun is.”

“I also think of the memories of Jinn and Baldur fondly, and I also know that his personality is not generous. However, isn’t that just Jinn’s conjecture?”

Swish—

Jin Gongjin took out the sword in his bosom. It was a sword with a beautifully pine tree pattern carved into it.

“The shaman will guarantee it.”

“Isn’t there something that happened during Angulimara?”

“All the key figures who started the war at that time are dead. If the shaman is still a problem, is the name of vacuum not enough?”

There is no shortage.

If the one who is the leader of the twelve branches has this much confidence.

“Do you have anything else to tell me?”

“Hwangryun is endlessly jealous of the Demon Lord. He wants to become the heaven of the martial arts world without the Demon Lord.”

“Why is that so?”

“Hwangryun is the leader of the Jeongpa martial arts world, and Majon is the best in the martial arts world who trampled the entire martial arts world with demons. I have been jealous of him for a long time.”

It’s a blow to your pride, especially if you’re narrow-minded.

I understand the pride and dignity of the unmanned.

If you only see good things and eat only good elixirs, you will become a person who can rule the martial arts world, but then an extraordinary monster like the Demon Lord suddenly appears and sweeps away the martial arts world, putting everyone under his command.

It must be absurd. It is something that cannot be easily tolerated.

So, in the past, when the Demon Lord had disappeared from the world, he must have been very happy being called the Heaven of the Martial Arts World.

and.

The next words that Jin Gong-jin followed were the best.

“That is why, over the past several decades, those with the surname ‘Maeng’ in the martial arts world have been killed for turning them against others or killed outside the walls. They are that narrow-minded and meticulous. Even Gae-bok wouldn’t have been able to figure it out.”

“······!”

“When the Demon Lord was absent from the world for 50 long years, those with the surname Maeng in the martial arts world were quietly destroyed. It was Hwangryun and those who acted under Hwangryun’s orders who did so. However, who would believe such pettiness?”

I know that Jin Gong-jin is not the type of person to waste time on such long nonsense. I remember him as being quite defensive and cautious, so it was strange that he just let it slide.

After thinking over Jin Gong-jin’s words, I decided on something and asked.

“So, does your Majesty have the evidence to drive out Huang Lun? It just has to be certain.”

“Now that the traitors and the group working under Hwangryun have all died, it will be difficult to find a way to save them. Originally, I had planned to attack them first.”

Does that mean there is no hard evidence?

The vacuum-type person who had been spitting out the sound of the smoke sighed and said.

“The Amazon’s reckless steps actually scared the small-minded Hwangryun, saving his life!”

I asked him, who was lamenting.

“Jin-in, are you saying that all the traitors in this city are connected to Hwang-ryun?”

“Yes. The one who killed the unmanned Hwagyeong, the Jewanggeom Namgungcheon, was probably Hwangryun, who was worried that he would speak out hastily, so he must have killed him with excessive care.”

Emperor’s Sword Namgungcheon.

Let’s think about it now.

What were his last words?

[ Oh, Heaven of the Martial Arts World! Why have you come only now! ]

Then it was torn to pieces and disappeared into blood.

It is not an ordinary will for an old man who has inherited a large family.

At this point, I was curious as to why Jin Gong-jin was so willing to reveal all those facts.

“Why are you telling me that only today? I am not even a Surtrian.”

“That’s why.”

Bam.

The scabbard with the pine tree pattern intricately carved into it touched the ground.

“I am not a person who is closely related to the complex world of martial arts, but I have seen Baldur’s determination to save the lives of the people. He is not a person of the Hwangryun clan, nor does he show any signs of betrayal, so I can speak so frankly.”

“······.”

“If you really have doubts, it’s okay to go to a shaman now.”

“Let’s go together.”

“I don’t think Hwangryun doesn’t know everything I know. If we go into shamanism together, what will he think?”

······According to the words of the vacuum cleaner.

Hwang Ryun was a more crazy person than I thought.

He will now hold his breath until the Amazon disappears.

Of course, he must have pretended to protect the city out of fear of the coming of the Demon Lord Maengwoo-gak, but once he decided to betray, he created a traitor in the city and hid it in his formation. Just because he was scared inside, it doesn’t mean he can become a good person again.

Knock- knock-

I thought for a moment, tapping the scabbard of the light sword, then said nonchalantly.

“If you do that, just go and kill him today.”

“Are you going to kill Hwangryun now?”

“If what the wise man said is true, isn’t this a person with many problems?”

I felt dirty as I remembered Hwangryun’s ridicule.

It’s not because I stuck a sword into Rudolph’s body.

The story of the Meng family being ostracized from the martial arts world was also quite an interesting topic for me. Was the subject the Seven-Leaded Emperor Huang Lun? My disciple happened to be a Meng family member.

However, Jin Gong-jin, who held Song Moon’s sword in his arms, took a step back. Jin Gong’s brightly shining eyes disappeared behind the guest house.

“Keep these words in mind. If you attack Chiljwa with force without reason or evidence, I will be the one who dies. Hwangryun is the absolute ruler of the Jeongpa martial arts world, and there are many who support him.”

“If there is evidence, would it be okay to kill Hwangryun?”

Jin Gong-jin thought for a moment and then nodded.

“Maybe so.”

“If you do that, I’ll look for it too.”

“It would be meaningful to search for the Mazone while it is still alive. The Mazone disappeared from the peak of the Valhalla Mountains not long ago, so Huang Lun must be holding his breath in fear.”

I remembered.

Level 9 unmanned. Emperor’s sword Namgungcheon.

The one who reported the old man who was said to be related to Hwangryun······.

“The end of the world.”

“hmm?”

“No. If I find evidence, I will send a messenger to the shaman’s main office. Then we can discuss it again.”

“······Do you really intend to fight with me?”

As I was making progress quite quickly, Jin Gong-jin became flustered and asked back.

I answered.

“Anyway, I’m already at odds with Huang Lun. Since I saw that from afar, didn’t the real person wait for me until Huang Lun disappeared?”

“······.”

Hooooo—

Jin Gong-jin’s eyes hardened, and his beard fluttered in the breeze. The inn was becoming noisy. The Sungsan incident was over, and the affluent people who wanted to have a chat about it had come in and sat down.

soon.

“I will send a message.”

“When you have time, please come visit Ragnarok sometime.”

“Okay.”

Jin Gong-jin and I quickly parted ways.

Surt City. The Seven Seats of the Martial Arts World.

He promised to kill Hwangryun someday.

There is only one day left in the martial arts world.

Since it had come to this, I decided to go and see my disciple’s face, so I moved quietly so as not to attract Hwangryun’s attention.

I caught one person in the middle of the opening and asked him. I heard that Qingyou of the Huashan Group, my disciple Meng Youbai, is now working in a large company in Beijing. He is already quite a famous person, so the information spread quickly.

But.

“Stop!”

There was an underground tunnel on the way there. There, a group of men who looked quite strong stopped me. They were all covered in cyberware and had large shields over their heads. They also had swords on their waists, and their aura was unusual.

At least level 7 or higher. They look extremely shabby, but they aren’t at all. One of them was even close to level 8, and the prayers he gave off were intimidating.

I asked, scratching my head, hiding my presence.

“What’s going on?”

“We control this underpass. We bought the land, we installed the barriers, and we dug this tunnel. So, if you want to pass through, you have to pay a toll of 1,000 credits.”

A ticket for the Surt tram costs 80 credits for the general public.

More than 10 times the price of a tram for this short distance.

So, it’s robbery.

But.

The men glanced at me for a moment, carefully examining my face and appearance, then without much hesitation, they opened their arms.

“But! I’ll let you use it for free just for today. It’s my daughter’s birthday.”

“Congratulations. Are you sure you don’t need any money?”

“Haha, no problem. Just hurry up and pass.”

It didn’t look like he had a daughter, but I thought it would be like that since he was sending her for free.

These guys are green.

A martial arts world company, Nokrim Infracore.

They open roads here and there in the Central Plains martial arts world and collect tolls.

It could be an underground tunnel that crosses a complex road, or a shortcut dug like an ant hole under a slum or entertainment district.

They still have the habit of banditry, so even in a city with only a small area left, they still carry out infrastructure projects that collect tolls. Most of them act like robbers, such as by charging exorbitant tolls, but there is a reason why they have managed to make a living in this world.

First of all, it’s because they have a really good sense of humor. If they try to fool you into thinking it’s not right? If they think you look strong?, they’ll give you a huge discount on the toll or sneak past you. They’re really good at it.

Even though he hid his presence, he could smell the strong man. It was indeed Nokrim.

“Have a nice day.”

“Have a nice day.”

“Okay. Thanks everyone.”

That’s what makes the difference between a slum-dweller like Rudolph and a slum-dweller. The difference between a professional and an amateur is the details. The professional bandit glanced at the scabbard hanging on my waist and blew his nose. It was because anyone could tell that it was a famous sword.

“Suddenly, I miss my sick daughter so much······.”

It was obvious that he lied because he was wary that I would suddenly swing my knife, but since he didn’t bother me and let me go for free, I figured he would do it again.

The green forests are originally like that. The path of Surtr is something that is well-known. So I suddenly thought of something and asked.

“Hey, did the volcano’s blue oil pass this way?”

“How, how do you know that? That plum sword!”

“When did it pass?”

“About two days have passed.”

“Did you get money from him?”

When I asked, a man who was close to level 8 and the strongest in the Green Forest opened his mouth.

“······I didn’t receive it.”

“Because he’s a volcano?”

“It was pretty strong so I couldn’t receive it.”

“Wouldn’t it be okay if the three of you rushed in?”

“We thought we couldn’t guarantee victory or defeat, so we sent each other off with words of encouragement.”

hmm.

“I get it.”

I decided that there was no need to meet Maeng Yu-baek, who was walking around fine, so I turned around and left.

Well then, first of all.

I guess I should go back to my home base, Ragnarok City.

These days, I really need to take a look at that guy who’s trying to get a body to become a politician.

“The end of the Baekri Brain Department.”

This thing isn’t even an onion, and no matter how much I peel it, something keeps coming out.
