< Episode 422 > Water Dragon River
.
The shadow reflected on the river felt even bigger than that giant.
“f*ck.”
As soon as I saw it, a curse came out of me.
Why is that popping up here?
“What is that…?”
“Report to the Lord immediately!”
“What is that…!!”
I’m not the only one who was embarrassed, but the people who were in the crowd were embarrassed. In the midst of those who don’t know what to do.
I sent a telegram while glaring at Dangdeok.
-Could that be what you prepared?
“…”
Dangdeok didn’t answer, but I could see that his eyes were shaking.
I wondered if it wasn’t so, but I asked one more time to hear a definite answer.
-It’s an order, so answer clearly.
-I… don’t know… that’s the thing.
Dangdeok doesn’t know? Circumstances, of course, I figured out that Dang-deok had prepared it to catch the poison king.
Surprisingly, that doesn’t seem to be the case.
Then…
“Suddenly, what is that…”
It was obvious that he was in the depths of the river. It was so huge that even the slightest movement could be seen on the water.
Following its movement, the blue demons follow him as if escorting him.
I had to look at it to be sure.
That huge thing was definitely a red monster.
I’ve seen them in previous lives, but compared to the green and blue monsters that bite and tear each other, from the red rank monsters, they have the characteristic of dominating lower individuals.
Even the power itself is at the level of an unmanned person who has reached the end.
If you think about the characteristics of those who lead other monsters, you will know how daunting it is to hunt.
The problem is not only there.
Pudeudeuk- I
remembered as I clenched my fists.
‘why.’
Why have they already started showing up?
‘It’s not the right time yet.’
The Second Coming of the red class occurs after the coming of the Heavenly Demon.
Calling herself the Heavenly Horse, by the time she begins to properly appear on this earth.
At that time, it was the time of the second coming of the forgotten red monster.
“It is not yet time. Damn it…”
How could a guy like that openly stir up the river?
much less
Looking at the waist of escorts and swordsmen.
The demons they were wearing were in good shape with no sign of anything special.
The fact that the object that informs you when a demonic scripture gate occurs is so calm means that no demonic scripture gate has occurred nearby.
this soon
‘Does that mean he’s not the one who just appeared?’
It meant that some time had passed since the red demonic scriptures appeared.
whenever? When did the red demonic scriptures start appearing?
I can not know. At least there was no such word in the news from the midfield.
Around the time I was examining the condition of the monster with a frown.
“What is it?”
The poison king appeared and began to examine the situation.
Dokwang also opens his eyes wide as he senses the presence under the river.
“Is that…?”
“It looks like a red-ranked monster.”
That’s what I said when I saw him.
Hearing my words, the king of poisons startled and increased his movements.
Not only that, but everyone around them began to react close to astonishment.
“Red…?”
“This is nonsense…! A red monster, isn’t that a story from hundreds of years ago!”
“What is the little goat talking about?”
The buzzing sound gets louder and louder.
It’s only natural that such a reaction would appear in the records.
In the meantime, my gaze was still looking at the river.
The appearance of enemy grade monsters out of the blue is astounding.
Now, it was more important to understand the situation first.
‘It must be above the river.’
The more you understand, the more f*cked up the situation is. This situation was the most reluctant of the hunting situations.
The radius of action was reduced and the best situation to be in danger was now.

‘It’s not very dangerous, but…’
I glanced at the people gathered behind me.
What I found was the place where Paejon and the Dark King were.
Pajon was widening his eyes as if he was surprised by the appearance of the red monster.
The Dark King was observing the situation as if it were rather interesting.
‘The power is sufficient…’
The power to hunt the red monster was sufficient and overflowing. It shouldn’t be that difficult since there are a lot of Hwagyeong warriors gathered in a lot of peak warriors.
the problem is.
‘Now… that the red monster is not used to.’
The problem was that this was an era in which people had no idea how to hunt red monsters, only being handed down in records.
That would be too.
It was because there was a different way to hunt from the red monster.
Around the time when a headache is clearly felt in an unexpected situation.
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo-!!
Goo Goo Goo-!
A tremendous sound was heard in the river, and waves began to crash on the calm river.
The waves are so strong that the huge ship shakes violently.
“Hold tight!”
“Aww!”
Most of them were unmanned, so it wasn’t difficult to keep the balance. In the meantime, there were a few people who couldn’t cope.
Those who couldn’t catch the difficulty fell off the rocking boat and fell into the river.
Originally, it would have been easy to get out of it even if that was the case.
The warriors couldn’t get enough of the feast of the green and blue monsters that found food and attacked fiercely.
“Ouch-! Save me… save me!”
The limited space in the water suppressed the skills he had.
The incapacitated body was enough to turn a first-class soldier into a mere prey.
Watching them disappear after being devoured in an instant, everyone is on edge.
Since each of them were unmanned, rather than being scared, they began to prepare for battle.
He draws his sword and raises his bet.
The bets emanating from the body begin to mix in the air and create a single flow.
‘this…!’
I should have been shocked to see it.
This is dangerous.
I tried to shout out to catch up right away.
Whoa-!
late.
Already, it began to move in the water as if stimulated.
As he moves, the waves get stronger.
Eventually, the shadow of the guy gradually darkens, and he reveals himself by penetrating the river next to the giant.
Shoot ah-!
As he lifted his heavy head, the rice shook.
Everyone had to hold their breath on the rough ship.
The bets that were mixed up in the air quietly fade away as if they had never happened.
Its size is comparable to that of a giant.
A long body with finely arranged red scales along it.
It flicks its long tongue to the tip of its snout and rolls its eyes to look at the ship.
Someone who confirmed his appearance spat out words in a trembling voice.
“…pear…snake?”
okay.
His appearance was like that of a snake.
It’s just that the size is unbelievably huge.
******************
Enemy level monsters.
The last find recorded on the record is from about four hundred to five hundred years ago.
It was said to be a monster that boasted of strength and size that could not be compared to green and blue grade monsters.
White monsters turn plains into vast rivers, make snow on tropical nights, and so on.
As long as it changes the terrain and affects the ecosystem.
The red level right below it was said to be enough to reign as the king of a region.
It is said that as long as they stay, those who are not allowed to live or walk there have terrifying power.
Because it was an absurd record to say that it was only possessed by a monster.
By the time he saw this, the king of poison had no doubt that it was an empty record.
If you have passed the first-class level, it will not be difficult to handle blue like a toy beyond green monsters.
At best, it was because I wondered if a monster one level higher than him would show that much of a difference.
Even if that was the case in the first place, it was just a monster that had already disappeared into the back of history and never appeared again.
The poison king had never thought the color red so dangerous.
And this.
It was a common thought among people living in the middle court.
A grade that will never appear again anyway.
A vain and inflated record.
That was all the red ranks had.
Now, the king of poison had no choice but to change his mind.
“This…”
The record wasn’t too wrong.
“It’s ridiculously large…”
How could I think otherwise when there was evidence of that right in front of my eyes.
Shhhhhhhh…
It’s a snake. It’s also a huge snake.
True to the name of the red monster, the snake with red scales was the size of the boat they were riding on.
It rolls its yellow eyes here and there while the monster scans the people on the deck.
At that gaze, the people around them begin to tremble as if they felt fear.
Most of them were less than first-class warriors, and the severe ones even lost consciousness after biting into bubbles.
Seeing that, the Dokwang had to frown.
‘What the hell…!’
The sudden appearance of a red class. What kind of disaster is this?
What about the other monsters flocking around?
Either way, things weren’t looking good.
The same goes for the monster’s eyes.
The poison king knew right away. That the eyes of that monster had an appetite.
It was clear he was looking at us as prey.
The poison king, having grasped that far, shouted without hesitation.
“Turn the boat!”
First you have to get out of here. Unless the poison king is an idiot, he wouldn’t think of leaving the ship alone in front of a guy like that.
at the same time.
Shaaaaaaa-!
I didn’t think the monster would let the ship turn around.
The moment the tip of the ship moves, the monster rushes at it with flashing eyes.
Confirming this, the poison king jumped from the deck and attacked the monster.
At some point, the poison king’s hand was holding a dagger.
The poison king, who raised a lot of bets, shoots the dagger in his hand at the monster without hesitation.
The dagger containing the energy of the hwagyeong quickly flew towards the monster’s head.
Originally, it was the poison king’s dagger that would have pierced steel without incident.
Ting-!
“…what!?”
Poison King’s dagger bounces off powerlessly right before it touches the monster.
As if blocked by a transparent wall.
The moment the poison king was embarrassed by the unexpected situation, the monster changed its course to the ship and headed to the poison king. Shut your mouth-! He opened his mouth and tried to swallow the poison king in one bite.
at that time.
Someone grabbed the poison king by the scruff of the neck and tossed it to the back.
Thanks to this, the Poison King was able to escape without being eaten by the snake by a single inch.
“Wow, is he crazy? Why are you so fast?”
It was the white lotus sword that caught the poison king and threw it.
Dokwang flew to the back and landed on top of the river.
It was the cornerstone of the award fee, which was said to be usable only when it reached the Hwagyeong.
The white lotus sword also arrives at the side of the poison king, and the poison king bows briefly as he sees her.
“Thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to get out of danger.”
“Thank you…. What was that? It looks like the strong wind came out.”
“…you’re right.”
To the words of the white lotus sword, the poison king answered with a frown. As the white lotus sword said, it was confirmed that the monster had deflected the previous attack.
Throwing away the strong wind… I mean, how could that be?
Another person appears next to the poison king who is unable to grasp the situation.
It was the head of the family and the head of the martial arts fist, called the master of the 100 masters of the central plains.
“I will join you.”
The Dog King nodded his head at those words.
The three masters who crossed the hwagyeong stand side by side on the river.
The ship gradually turned and began to move.
The monster was not looking at the ship, but at the three people ahead.
The guy knows that too. That you can’t head to the ship unless you kill the three in front of you right away.
Seeing that, the poison king harbors doubts inwardly.
‘Couldn’t it be… the ship is the purpose.’
There is an illusion that the purpose of the monster is on the ship.
That’s not it. The poison king shook his head.
It was a red monster that suddenly appeared, and now I had to focus on protecting that ship.
Around the time when the poison king was taking out his dagger and catching his breath.
Looking at the monsters in front, the white lotus sword said.
“Wow… that’s huge. It’s really nasty.”
Even as the poison king felt her words weaken slightly, he remembered that it was something he could not deny.
as she said
Compared to the monsters he had seen so far, that monster boasted an unbelievable size.
What would have happened if such a guy had been on the ground and not on a river like this?
What if there were not just one, but several?
The poison king grabs the dagger in a terrible imagination.
The snake was not running as if it were watching the liver.
Originally, monsters acted only with their instincts, so they should have rushed as hard as they could even now.
He didn’t seem to be looking at the situation.
And the same goes for the poison king.
‘I have to figure out what happened just now.’
The poison king remembered the moment when his dagger bounced off.
The dagger was properly wrapped around the river. There was no problem with the stretching curve.
But why did his attack bounce off before reaching the monster?
I couldn’t tell.
when you’re thinking about it. The white lotus sword quickly swings the sword and shoots strong energy at the snake.
It was a sudden attack.
Shiiik-! The light blue strong air rushes in to slash the snake at high speed.
crisp-!
Just like the sword of the poison king, the strong force of the white lotus sword also collapsed in front of the transparent wall.
“As expected… it doesn’t work?”
The white lotus sword spat out regretfully, but King Dokwang saw it and was startled.
“White lotus sword…! What are you doing all of a sudden!”
“why. I wanted to check if this was the case. You can’t just watch and do nothing.”
When she said that he had to fight anyway, the poison king had to cover his forehead.
Fortunately, the attacked monster only sticks out its tongue and examines the situation, but it was a bit of a problem if it was provoked and attacked.
Of course, I was surprised by the actions of the white lotus sword, but it wasn’t that there was no harvest.
It was thanks to him that I was able to be sure that the attack did not work against the monsters.
The poison king, who confirmed that, quickly rolled his head to find an answer to the situation. Soon, as if something had passed, the king of poisons popped into his mind.
Could this be…
‘…Are you saying that red-ranked monsters are living things that don’t work with bets?’
Dokwang swallows his saliva at the cool thought that came to him inadvertently.
It wasn’t recorded in the records, but it was something I didn’t know.
From the red monster, the number of cases where the energy created by the bet does not work.
This is a frightening case just to imagine.
If this happens, the value of the warrior who uses bets to kill monsters will decrease.
After all, I was able to talk about the downfall of humans who couldn’t stop the monsters.
It’s just a delusion, but it’s an imagination that vaguely feels reality. Around the time when the poison king was swallowing dry saliva.
I could feel the movement of the monster.
Shaaaaaa-!
The moment the snake showed its fangs and tried to attack the three warriors.
shhh-! bang-!
“!”
A wild lightning strike from somewhere hits the snake’s head.
Sheaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The snake’s head shakes with a roar.
The angle of the snake’s head changed as it screamed.
The giant head fell into the river, and the impact caused the water to rise into the sky.
The current that rose high soon fell back down again.
It looked like it was raining.
Seeing this, the Dokwang’s eyes widened.
I saw with my own eyes that the attack with the bet until just now didn’t work, so what the hell was that?
The poison king looked behind him with surprised eyes.
It was to confirm the unmanned person who had blocked the snake with a sword strike.
Before long, the poisonous king confirmed that he was unmanned.
“what…? Why are those children…”
Leaving behind the unbelievable Dokwang’s reaction.
Kyaaaaaa-!
The monster that disappeared in the water for a while quickly jumps out and rushes again.
The three front-line Hwagyeong warriors rallied to identify the attack.
“Four spans from the left eye to the right.”
A voice is heard from behind, and immediately another sign rushes at the snake. There was no hesitation.
The three blades burrow into the snake leaving traces in the air.
Exactly, the snake’s left eye stretched slightly behind it, and energy exploded from the tip of the sword, and it exploded in shock.
Pan-!
Shaaaaaaah-!
Just like before, the snake’s head shakes.
The poison king could see clearly.
The moment the unmanned sword strike touched the snake, the transparent membrane cracked.
What’s different about them? Even while questioning, the voice continues to be heard.
“Five spans down from the tip of the next chin. Raise it up and hit it.”
When the word is heard, there is no hesitation in carrying it out.
The sword wrapped in golden energy goes under the snake and shoots out sword energy.
bang-! It is the same this time.
The chin of the snake hit by the sword surges upward. Crispy! You can see that the transparent membrane around the snake is slightly shattered.
The slightly opened gap felt blurry.
“Woohyuk.”
Was a short call enough? The handsome Mi-gongja immediately raised his sword and swiftly fired a sword containing pottery through the created gap.
Then, an attack that had not been reached until now grazes the skin of the snake and injures it.
Pick-! A wound opens on the snake’s neck, and blue-green blood splashes into the river.
Kyaaaaaa-!
Perhaps because of the wound, the snake shouted harshly and distanced itself slightly.
The snake began to curl up as if to be wary of them.
The king of poison had to open his mouth wide at what happened in an instant.
Those who attacked the snake until just before the snake start to crouch, fly back and land on the river.
with a splash.
A young man was standing on the river where the three warriors had returned from the beginning.
He was the one who had been giving orders.
Looking at him, the poison king whispered quietly.
“Soyeomra?”
Gu Yangchun’s eyebrows tremble slightly at the call of the king of poison.
He seemed to be in a bit of a bad mood.
aside from that What were the people who had just been shooting at the snake?
Hwagyeongin themselves were also thinking about what to do.
As far as I know, the late exponents, who must be at their peak, drove the snake casually.
Shaman’s sleepyong, descendant of Namgung’s sword dancer, Geomjon.
With their swords down, they were standing around So-Yeomra and holding their swords.
As if waiting for the next command.
The energy wrapped around the swords had different colors, creating a strange sense of intimidation.
How could those who could not reach Hwagyeong, much less, stand on the river?
The poisonous king could not understand what had happened.
Around that time, Soyeomra, who was in the center, opened her mouth while looking at the king’s party.
“From now on, I will be conducting.”
“…what? Gongja Gu suddenly said something…”
“I will not accept objections. If you don’t like it, just sit still and don’t interrupt.”
The King Dok tried to say something at Gu Yangchun’s words.
Swoouuuuu-!
I had to shut my mouth at the movement of the monster that I felt.
I feel a huge wriggling feeling under the river.
Yangcheon Gu also looks around to see if she felt this.
“Prepare.”
sereung.
At the words briefly mentioned, the three late indexes sharply raise their momentum. It was like a well-trained swordsman.
Even if the three of them are like that, what is Guyangcheon who is giving them orders casually?
Dokwang had to question the unknown pressure that Gu Yang-cheon felt.
