Episode 669
The poachers were startled when an electric discharge occurred in the air and lightning showed its teeth.
What the poachers were camouflaging now was an injured person.
An injured person was attacked by a monster while roaming the mountains!
As it was a dangerous place, it was always a good disguise. Especially if the opponents are young and inexperienced wizards.
however…
Why does it seem like the magic is targeting this direction?
Kwasik!
As the lightning struck, the poacher, who was wrapped in bandages, screamed and threw himself.
Just now, the lightning was targeting the poacher precisely. If he hadn’t dodged, he would have taken a direct hit.
‘Me, you crazy bastard!’
“Hey, wizard! Why are you like this? Ugh!”
The lightning did not end with a single strike.
As if the wizards had planned and prepared, lightning struck down like rain.
The poachers, who were wrapped in bloody bandages as if they had been seriously injured, felt that if they stayed still any longer, they might actually die.
“Ugh!”
“Run away!”
“Crazy wizard…!”
The poachers fled in a hurry into the darkness. Lee Han looked at that with expressionless expression.
‘…You must be a poacher, right?’
Seeing that his movements suddenly became faster, he looked like a poacher.
It would have been difficult for an injured person to react like that.
Of course, it could have been that he felt his life was in danger and realized his potential, but…
‘hmm. ‘He must be a poacher.’
Although he only went to Einrogard for about a year, there were so many strange outsiders that Lee Han met during that time.
An evil god worshiper, an anti-magicist, a dragon who forces himself to be emperor, no, not a dragon…
In any case, there was one thing that Lee Han felt while dealing with cunning demons and magic criminals who were worn out.
If something seems strange, attack first!
If Lee Han, who had less experience and fighting power than his opponent, lost even the first strike, there was really no answer.
It was right to think about the rearguard later and shoot first if something seemed suspicious.
In fact, wasn’t it said that there are so many poachers in the Vuitton Mountains now?
The other person could really have been a hunter, but it was more likely that he was a poacher.
Lee Han decided to think like that.
“what’s the matter?!”
My friends ran out in surprise.
While resting in the tent, he heard magic and shouting and came out.
“Poachers were approaching, so I used magic to keep them in check. “They all ran away, so there’s nothing to worry about.”
“As expected, it’s Lee Han!”
Gainando was happy, but Nilia was puzzled.
Most poachers were persistent, persistent, and unstoppable when it came to achieving their goals.
How can you approach this so clumsily?
“Did you just come over?”
“huh.”
Lee Han answered shamelessly.
Nilia pondered with a serious look on her face, not even knowing what part Lee Han had omitted.
“Fortunately, we stopped it, but more poachers may come.”
“You used magic like that??”
Guynando pointed to the ground outside the camp. Because of Lee Han’s magic, the soil was completely black.
“All poachers are fearless. And even more so until it happens to him himself. Everyone wake up! “I’d rather stay awake.”
The students went up to their respective locations and checked the surroundings of the campsite. At that moment, I saw the explorer Frostwalk returning from afar.
“Students, are you all okay?”
“A group of poachers approached.”
“There are definitely a lot of poachers.”
Seorigeotdo warned the students not to relax as they had discovered many traces of poachers in the vicinity.
He was dumbfounded when he heard about the poachers who had approached him while he was away.
“I guess they are rookies without much experience. In fact, even with a little experience, it is rare for them to walk directly into a camp made by wizards.”
“Maybe they looked down on us because we were still in a low grade?”
“Then they are even more inexperienced. “You look down on Einrogard students because they are in a lower grade.”
“lol. “Maybe so.”
* * *
Without realizing that his gang was being treated like inexperienced rookie poachers, Zulvan was training his returning men.
“Hey, you idiots like earthworms! How can you fool someone younger than your quiver and get caught!”
“They took away the magic without even listening!”
“gibberish! Would an imperial wizard attack a wounded man without even listening to his story? Your acting was terrible. Okay, so what did you do when the magic came? “Seeing that he’s fine, I guess he ran away!”
“Two, boss. “If you just hit the magic…”
“It’s better to get beaten, you idiots! If it had been true, they would have been fooled too. “I avoided it, so they didn’t know about it!”
Only then did the subordinates realize Zulban’s words and looked angry.
I never thought I would lose in a battle of guts with a much younger wizard.

“Follow me. “I’d rather do it myself than leave it to you guys.”
“Two, boss. I’ll admit we made a mistake. But it may be dangerous to go now. “They will be on guard too…”
Zulban lamented and shook his head at the words of his subordinates.
What happened was that none of them knew how to use their brains.
“There is nothing you can do if you make excuses like that. You stupid bastards. Follow me! “I will show you myself.”
Zulban mobilized a large number of his subordinates who did not participate earlier.
And it actually hurt some people.
“Kaaak!”
“Ugh!”
“Be patient. Because I have to show my scars. If magic comes, hit it! “If anyone avoids me, I will kill them.”
Certainly, even though Zulban used the same strategy, it was on a different level. His subordinates must have felt it too, as their morale returned.
Isn’t the reason you follow a violent and ferocious leader ultimately because that leader has power?
Following Zulban’s instructions, the subordinates chased after the leader with puffed hearts, hoping to get a share of the action this time.
“Salvage, please save me!”
“Please save me! “The Wailing Pig has attacked me!”
They trudged to the front gate of the camp carrying torches.
Unlike before, I was completely defenseless. If an attack rains down on the camp, more than half of the people will be wiped out in an instant.
As a large number of people walked without any defense, dripping blood, the frosty walkers who were watching the front gate were taken aback.
‘Is he really injured?’
Poachers didn’t act like that.
Even if you had to use trickery, you had to send in a few people to see what was going on, and even if you approached them, you had to feel like they could run away at any time in case of an emergency.
However, those approaching now were numerous and showed no signs of running away, and in fact, they even showed injuries.
Even if you were an experienced Frostwalker, you couldn’t help but feel confused.
And this is exactly what Zulban was aiming for.
‘The more seasoned and experienced you are, the more confusing it will be.’
Zulvan winked. The poachers are one step closer.
“Everyone stop!”
“Save me, please save me. “My colleague is seriously injured…”
At that time, Lee Han, who was standing guard on the other side, belatedly came running up next to Seorigaet.
Seorigeol looked at Lee Han and tried to speak.
“Now, let’s check whether those people are injured or not…”
“Blink!”
“!!!!”
Seorigaet was surprised and Julban was also surprised.
I never thought they would start using magic without asking or listening.
Zulvan was convinced by his intuition.
Now, that wizard is the one who fooled his subordinates with bluff!
‘Do you think I will be defeated?’
Zulvan blinked his eyes with a tired and worn-out face and tried to glare at the flying lightning.
If you hold out until the end, the opposing wizard will definitely break the spell…
Kwasik!
“!!!”
“Jul, Julban!!!”
As the leader was struck by lightning, screams erupted from the poachers.
You wouldn’t know it if you were equipped with the usual equipment, but if you were hit by a lightning spell while defenseless like just now, you wouldn’t be able to move for a while.
Sure enough, Zulvan’s legs gave out and he stumbled. His eyes were full of disbelief and astonishment.
“No way…”
“Blink!”
The wizard mercilessly struck down Zulban with another lightning spell.
The poachers were slow to react as they did not know how to move when their leader fell.
“He’s a poacher! Strike!”
At Lee Han’s shout, the friends went up to their respective positions and started casting magic. Several attack spells and curses flew in like a storm.
Yoner and Syanna threw shock potions forward. The poachers who were hit directly by the shockwave lost their sense of balance and stumbled.
Gainando and Ratford dealt additional blows to the poachers with curses and illusion magic. The poachers collapsed even more as their muscles became stiff and fear suddenly rose.
Nilia aimed her arrow and tried to pierce the one who ran the furthest away. At that time, Durgyu asked.
“Lee Han! “How do you know they are poachers?”
‘I know?’
Nilia, who was about to shoot an arrow, stopped.
When I thought about it, it was strange. Nilia was also confused as to whether those people were poachers or not.
“I get it!”
The frosty step let out an exclamation on behalf of Lee Han.
“seam! I recognized you from the scars! “This is truly amazing!”
“You mean a scar?”
“They said they were beaten by Wongokjeo! If you get hit by that big wild boar, you won’t get that kind of injury! “That is a wound forcibly made with a knife!”
It was only then that Dergyu and Nilia realized their friend’s insight after hearing Frostwalker’s words.
In that short moment, he realized something was wrong with his wound and fought back.
Frostbite lowered his head, probably impressed by what had just happened.
“Thank you. Wardanaz. They are supposed to take care of the students, but they are being disrespectful. “Who would have thought that poachers would take advantage of the stereotypes that explorers usually have!”
“I was just lucky.”
Lee Han was about to say that he just attacked all the suspicious people who approached him, but held back from saying that he was wounded and all.
‘I’ll have to tell you later when Frostwalker isn’t around.’
I didn’t want to seem like a strange person in front of Frosty Step.

“Even if we catch the poachers, it’s a problem.”
As he looked at the poachers who had finished trapping him, he looked troubled.
Unlike the poachers at the beginning of the mountain range earlier, the people wandering around here were not people who would just take away some equipment.
“Can’t you just lock it up?”
“They don’t know what they’re going to do. “We need to attach surveillance personnel, but since we have to find the unicorn…”
“Hey, if you let me go, I will never set foot in the mountains again.”
The poachers noticed and spoke to him, but they ignored him.
“Then why don’t you lock him in the stable?”
“What will happen if you lock me in a stable… ah.”
The frost steps stopped.
I belatedly remembered what was in this campsite.
“…Are you okay? “If that friend explodes with wildness and attacks…”
“Even though Ponrigg has a strong appetite, he is not the kind of guy who will secretly eat what he is told not to eat. Please believe me.”
“Hmm. “Then please do me a favor.”
The faces of the poachers brightened at the conversation going on in front of them.
I thought that if I did well, I could run away.
Since the number of wizards is less than ten, if they stay in the stable, they might be able to sneak out of the restraints and escape outside…
“Go in here.”
“Thank you, thank you.”
“hmm. okay. “Don’t do anything useless.”
Lee Han opened the stable door and pushed the poachers in.
The poachers hurried inside but then stopped.
I felt something hot breath.
purr.
Ponrig made a very uncomfortable sound when some random bastards came rushing into the stable that he had built with great care.
Beaks clicked and claws scratched the stall floor.
“……”
“…!!!”
The poachers’ desperate screams came from inside the stable.
