Episode 127. Demon Hand of Greed (1)
“This is embarrassing.”
“What are you so embarrassed about?”
Ho Yo-seong licked his lips.
“I said I would visit you once, but you took a busy step this time too.”
Mudam shook his head.
“Let’s not get hung up on such trifles.”
“Curm! When you say that, I don’t know what to do.”
Ho Yo-seong filled Mu-dam’s cup.
“Is the oyster truck okay?”
“It’s okay.”
“It’s hard to find fragrant tea leaves these days.”
“It’s okay.”
Ho Yo-seong smiled as he filled his own glass.
“I deliberately burned the incense a bit weakly. You should be able to drink quite a bit.”
The two drank tea at the same time.
Unlike Ho Yo-seong, who licked his lips as if the taste was weak, Mu-dam seemed quite surprised. Of course, it was a very pale expression.
“The unique scent of tea leaves is so strong, but there is no burden when burning like this.”
“Is that so? I’m glad you got it right.”
Ho Yo-sung slapped his thigh.
“You didn’t like long editorials, did you? Now, then, why did you come all the way today?”
Mudam did not answer. I was just staring at Ho Yo-seong.
Ho Yoseong scratched his head.
“Those eyes are so… … .”
“hmm?”
“Ahem! no.”
“General military.”
“Yes, please.”
“Looks like you can’t rest the whole fortress. The area under the eyes is black.”
Ho Yo-seong touched his skin.
“It wasn’t only dark under the eyes, but the skin also became rough. Really, I can’t even do this these days.”
“… … .”
“Ah, I said everything in front of the Great Law.”
Mudam shook his head.
“Don’t push yourself too hard.”
“I want to do that too. This doesn’t sound like a spirit.”
Ho Yo-seong asked after emptying the hot tea.
“Okay, what are you doing?”
“I have come to confirm one thing.”
“What are you talking about?”
“About this inspector job.”
Hoyoseong’s eyes twinkled.
“Do you have any questions about the Three Gongja?”
“Exactly, I wonder what will happen due to the outside inspection, not the Three Gongs.”
“What else do you mean by that?”
Mudam, who was silent for a moment, opened his mouth.
“Do you remember the hardships you suffered from the Beast Palace when you sent a convoy the other day from the Joy Garden?”
“of course. It’s an unforgettable event.”
“… … .”
“But why?”
“Don’t the generals know better than me?”
Mudam’s eyes deepened.
“Recently, unknown masters have appeared near northern Guangdong. We haven’t formed a proper tracking team yet, so we don’t know where they come from or what they are.”
Ho Yoseong smiled.
“okay.”
“Did you not know?”
“No, I knew.”
“But how… … .”
“I was just surprised. The Daehobeop is definitely the school’s barrier, but I didn’t know you would pay attention to that.”
It’s not even my business, so how did I come all the way here to ask about it?
Words that can make you feel bad depending on what you hear. But Mudam wasn’t offended at all.
“If you didn’t know, you wouldn’t know, but since you know, you can’t help but pay attention to that part.”
“Even if you know it, it is the responsibility of the military department to investigate and destroy them.”
“Of course he knows too.”
“Still, there must be one reason why you came all the way and asked me.”
Ho Yo-seong’s eyes shone.
“Is there a special escort in that area?”
Mudam was surprised by Hoyoseong’s sharpness.

It was said that he couldn’t lie, but it was a shameless expression. Even so, Ho Yo-seong saw exactly why Mu-dam had come here.
“exactly.”
Ho Yo-seong laughed as if he couldn’t stop it.
‘Aren’t you too quick to admit it?’
Still a great person A soldier who uses a smiling face as a shield and wields all sorts of weapons is different from a tribe.
So it looked great, so I was wary.
It’s because people can’t look straight at the target they give their heart to. Ho Yo-seong thought that he was no different from such an ordinary great man.
“Currently, the law enforcement team is secretly heading to the special escort target. For one thing, we too must act.”
“I understand why you are concerned.”
Ho Yo-seong’s face became serious.
“Let me be clear. Those mysterious masters will never touch a special escort.”
“… … ?”
“To be precise, special escorts are not their goal.”
“Do you know who the escort is?”
“I do not know. That is entirely within the jurisdiction of the Ho Court.”
“How can you be so sure?”
“Because the goal of the mysterious masters is clear.”
“Who the hell are those masters?”
“Until there.”
“… … ?”
“If it was something that Daehobeop had to know, he would have told me right away. But I decided there was no need for that.”
Ho Yo-seong said while refilling the teacup.
“I can tell you what they really are and what their goals are, to alleviate some of the Great Law’s misgivings. If you really want it, let me tell you now.”
“… … .”
“Would you like it?”
Mudam shook his head, looking at the quiet voice.
“The commander-in-chief is right. I trembled with some kind of anxiety. I apologize.”
“no. It’s hard for a special escort target to appear once every ten years. I understand that the Great Protection Act must be nervous.”
“It’s embarrassing.”
Mudam sighed uncharacteristically.
“I feel strange. I’ve never been like this before, but I’m getting older, so I keep paying attention to the midfield situation.”
Ho Yo-seong’s eyes deepened.
‘It’s not because I’m older.’
This is the sense of absolute adherence.
It’s been a long time since he showed his teeth and claws, but Mudam was still a beast among beasts.
The undead beast’s senses sensed the ominous air. Even without any information, the old master who devoted his whole life to Shingo could read the invisible war clouds.
Furthermore, this old man will know. No, you may already know subconsciously.
Who is the person who brought the war luck? Who stands at the center of the invisible vortex.
“Let’s take a break for a while and have a chat. Would you like another cup of tea?”
“Good.”
* * *
Jeom Jeom-hyeon (嘉得賢) had a quiet personality unlike a member of Kwangma University.
He is quick-witted, meticulous, and takes good care of others. In many ways, he did not fit in with the miners.
In fact, there was a reason why he, who had stronger martial arts than shading, became the leader rather than the sub-owner. He knew he wasn’t good at manipulating people.
So he became this leader. Wi Hong-ryun also objected, but in the end, he could not break the will of Jeon Jeok-hyeon.
A rare demon in Protestantism, where force is power.
However, there is nothing to blame for one skill. The real second factor of the light bar is the full string, not the shade.
Even Jeomjanghyeon like that had no choice but to take full advantage of the powerful wave approaching from afar.
‘strong.’
It’s different from the demons I’ve seen so far.
Unlike the masters who radiated air waves like active volcanoes or storms, the giant Han’s air waves were infinitely heavy.
It is like the breath of a whale swimming in the deep sea. The closer I got, the more my body tightened and my breathing became stuffy.
‘That person is Jongrisan, Geogyeonggaju.’
There were about a hundred masters in blue uniforms following behind such a mountain. All of them were large, with hard faces, and each held a black iron spear in each hand.
Jeon Cheol-hyeon’s eyes hardened.
‘It’s the sea king we’ve only heard about.’
Geogyeong, which only listens to the command of the head of household, is the best escort unit and the strongest armed organization. Even if they were sent alone, quite a few small and medium-sized groups would evaporate without leaving a single blade of grass in less than half an hour.
The head of the family is the head of the family, but the number of troops brought is as many as a hundred. I don’t know if there is even one group, but with this group alone, it is difficult to gain the upper hand in a decisive battle with Haewangwi.
After a while, Jongri Mountain stopped outside the entrance of Sohyanggok.
All members of this group of the Gwangmadae were already encamped.
Jeon Jeon-hyeon took a step forward and took a four-hander.
“It’s called Jeom Jeok-hyeon, the head of this group of the Protestant main body of Gwangmadae. I’ll see you, Geogyeonggaju.”
Zhongli Mountain’s eyes flashed.
“It’s quite right.”
It’s a humble review.
Say that in front of a person you’ve never met before. He may be considered arrogant, but no one has ever pointed a finger at him.
He was a man of such strength and arrogance.
“I came after being contacted by the deputy inspector and special inspector.”
“I know.”
“Guide me.”
Jeon Cheolhyun lowered his head.
“Please wait a moment. I will put a message inside.”
“tidings?”
Thick eyebrows wriggle.
A very small facial expression change. That alone seemed to stir the air around the area.
“You mean you’re not here?”
“That’s right.”
“It’s unpleasant.”
Zhonglishan did not hide his feelings.
“If you summoned the head of a family, you would have to keep the minimum courtesy.”
“… … .”
“Where are you now?”
“He entered the narrow road behind us. We have been given an order to protect this place.”
keep it
It meant no one was allowed inside. Even if the opponent is a big gyeonggaju.
Even if it’s an order from a superior, it’s not something to say recklessly in front of a big boss. Although he has a quiet and meticulous personality, Jeon Jeon-hyeon was also a member of the Gwangmadae, a man with overflowing spirit as a man.
Zhongli Mountain’s eyes narrowed.
Flash!
Intense demonic energy passed by the sharp eyes staring at the full string.
shiver.
A cold sweat broke out on his forehead. However, his expression did not change at all.
Zhonglishan nodded.
“Tell the inspector. I will endure it for once because I have good subordinates.”
It meant acknowledging the opponent’s skills and distribution. Jeon Jeon-hyeon once again bowed his head and expressed his gratitude.
It was then.
“Ooh, that’s scary. What are you afraid of, so you can become an inspector-like inspector?”
All eyes were drawn into the narrow valley. A woman was walking out of it.
She was quite beautiful, but her sharp eyes and scars that crossed her face obliquely gave off a subtle sense of intimidation.
Behind his back were two swords, one of which was a deformed sword that was as wide as ten inches wide, and the other was a pure white longsword without any blemishes.
Pussss.
A hazy black smoke rose from the ground she stepped on.
There was a hint of surprise on Zhongli’s face. The demonic energy felt by the opponent was beyond imagination.
“Then what shall we do? Shall we put up with your rude attitude for once? huh?”
“… … .”
“But I don’t think we have any reason to put up with you like you.”
“who are you?”
Wi Hong-ryun grinned.
“He is the most insane bitch certified by the Heavenly Demon Church.”
