Chapter 665
thumping
The sound of water droplets echoing quietly through the silence. I dodged the dripping liquid from the cracked prison ceiling and looked into the air.
【Escape from Namshank
You are eventually imprisoned in the underground prison of Nanman Yashu Palace.
This dark, damp, and desolate space resembles your future. However, it is still too late to give up on life.
Two days remain until the execution is carried out.
You must escape the prison within the given time limit.
It is your choice whether to survive alone or together, and if you fail, all that remains is death.
But keep in mind, if you have a strong will and a ray of goodwill, your life will open.
Class: Transcendence
Restriction: Taekyung Jin
Mission: Escape from prison before execution (unfinished)
compensation : ???
chain quest
Failure: Death
The quest window that I have already checked again and again.
I stared at the translucent hologram window, but the magic that changed the contents of the last line did not happen.
‘If you fail, your life will be ruined.’
It’s not the first time.
From the time he set foot in Murim until now, he had received such a damn quest several times. Of course, at first I was really devastated.
‘At that time, I really felt like I was going to die.’
As a hunter, I fought countless battles, but I was always afraid of death.
It would be more accurate to say that I was more afraid of everything I had to leave behind than death itself.
If you die at the gate, at least the death insurance money will come out to your family, but if you die in Moorim, there is nothing.
Of course, there is an unbridgeable gap between me then and now.
Every time he went through a crisis, his liver, which was forcibly injected with botox, grew bigger day by day, and his body and mind became stronger in proportion to it.
but… … .
‘This is the first time I’ve been in a situation like this.’
The reason I was able to survive every time at the crossroads of life and death is simple.
There was someone by his side to fight alongside him, and when he had to fight alone, he was ready to risk his life to fight.
And after struggling to the end, he survived.
Iron gruck.
At the very least, it wasn’t like now, where heavy iron balls were hung all over the body and even air power was banned.
“… … damn it.”
He groaned softly and closed his eyes. The text written in the quest description seemed to emerge clearly from the darkness.
[If you have a strong will and a ray of goodwill, your life will open.]
The system would sometimes send me messages that I didn’t know were hints or nonsense.
In that sense, is that a simple encouragement? Or is it a crucial clue that tells you how to escape the prison?
And that time when I was deep in thought with my eyes closed. Liquid dripped from the air above his head and hit the floor, splashing on the back of my hand.
slap
It is too sticky to be simply called groundwater, and the temperature is so warm that it makes you feel dirty.
I opened my eyes at the same time and opened my mouth without even looking at the ceiling.
“… … you crazy I was told to drool a little bit.”
Chureup, along with the sound of swallowing, came Taesan’s voice.
“sorry. Taesan. It was because I was so hungry.”
“Then why is a hungry bastard putting his mouth on a hole in the floor? He just sits still.”
“Still, if you lick it, it’s subtly salty.”
“Lick? what?”
“rock. This is a stone restaurant.”
“ah. I will be thrilled.”
“Fantastic? What kind of sauce is that?”
Such a crazy bastard… … .
I swallowed the swear words that had built up in my throat. Anyway, if I get angry with him now, I’ll only lose my energy. Nothing changes.
Moreover, the situation in Taesan is not so good now.
No matter how the creature was created, the blood flow was too thick, so the point blood didn’t work, but the gong power was banned and the whole body was bound.
No matter how much Taishan is a natural-born historian, no answer comes out in this situation.
“Taesan. I’m hungry. I want to go out soon.”
As I was listening to the whining of the guy resounding quietly, I had a sudden thought.
that all of this is because of me A thought that might be called a feeling of guilt.
“… … Hey Taesan.”
“footnote. Why did Taesan call me?”
“sorry.”
“huh?”
“Sorry. sincerely.”
I looked up at the ceiling with the horse, and through a hole the size of a child’s fist, I could see wide, clear eyes like those of a calf.
A look that doesn’t understand English.
It’s something I always think about, but he was the owner of a pure mind that didn’t fit his age and size. For example, like a clean sheet of white paper.

I opened my mouth like a sigh.
“I should have used better judgment. I didn’t. It was a mistake.”
It was a painful misjudgment, and in Go, it was a handshake.
In order to settle the handshake, he was imprisoned himself, but… … shit. Whether that was really a good choice remains questionable.
And Taesan, who looked at me curiously, answered.
“Taesan. Okay.”
“Are you okay?”
“Yep. Taesan is really good.”
I kept my mouth shut and lowered my head. Perhaps Taesan didn’t even understand how the current situation was going.
The most important fact to him right now is that he is hungry right now, and the second most important thing is that there is no way to satisfy this hunger.
‘Yeah, maybe that’s better for him.’
But the next moment, after hearing the words that followed, I realized.
That Taesan is a much more clever guy than I thought.
“footnote. There is no need to feel sorry for Taesan.”
Startled, I raised my head and looked up at the ceiling. Taesan, who met my eyes, continued to speak clearly.
“know. That Taesan is an idiot.”
“what?”
“Ever since I was very young, people teased Taesan as a fool, and whenever he was bored, they came and beat him. Maybe if I hadn’t met my lord… … Even now, I might be beaten by someone every day and cry. Taesan was very difficult.”
A very different atmosphere and tone than usual. I opened my eyes wide at the unfamiliar sight of Mount Tae, and a voice that continued like flowing water reached my ears.
“But Master was different. Master understood even when Taesan said something wrong, and when he ate a lot, he patted him on the back and told him to eat slowly. So Taesan promised to give his life to Master.”
“you… …
“But not too long ago, the lord said that to Taesan. Let’s trust the footnotes. If you think about it now that each province seems to be different from the people of the other political factions, your lord was right. Because it was footnotes that foolish Taesan saved his master a few days ago instead.”
U
“Taesan has gotten better at Hwaryongak. I also like the small and cute Namho, the sometimes annoying Hyuk Moojin, the ferocious Songilseom, and the pretty flower-like Juhwaran. And she likes footnotes second only to notes.”
Beyond the hole for the speechless me
‘s pupils softened.
“Taesan believes in his master. The lord believes in each lord. So footnotes trust footnotes. If it’s a footnote, he’ll definitely find a way. As always.”
I just stared blankly for a while as Taesan finished his speech and smiled.
It feels like being stabbed in the back of the head with a club.
I didn’t think Taesan, not anyone else, would say such a thing.
And that one word from him will be the biggest strength for me now.
‘Yeah, if you think about it, the roads were everywhere.’
In Moorim, I seem to have lived a life very close to death.
Jo Pil. chieftain. Roaring swordsman and blood drinker. Standing Heavenly Demon… … .
Every step I took, there was a crisis, and whenever I did, I took out the word “death” that I had hidden in my heart and mumbled it.
that I will never die I will never die in this place.
‘strong will
Did some of the contents written on the quest window mean this kind of heart? or not… … .
‘In line with a strong will. something else.’
That was the moment. Something that Salseong said to me in Hobuk just a few months ago flashed through my mind like lightning o_
‘her. Since I opened the dantian in Gearko, such a monster, you too can handle energy properly.’
And I asked like this.
‘I know how to deal with it even now. Don’t you know how much energy I have?’
After hearing my words, Salseong laughed without answering, then shook his head and disappeared.
With one word saying that even if I told you now, you wouldn’t know.
But now I feel like I know it vaguely.
Why did Salsung say and act like that at the time?
have shown.
How funny the kid who shouted out loud that he knew how to deal with energy because he had a lot of gong power must have looked funny in his eyes.
‘Samdanjeon (三丹田).’
The three largest and most important channels in the human body.
However, the lower part of the field is just a vessel for continuously filling and emptying gong energy.
Until now, I hadn’t realized even half of the benefits and tricks of the middle class.
But now it’s different. No, I know a little bit.
Making a break is… … That it is will, not force.
‘Unwavering, strong will.’
From the beginning, the middle battle was a realm of enlightenment, not air power.
Somewhere in the unknown territory, half a step ahead in the land of the chosen, which no longer depends on the size of the air power.
The sanctuary that must be passed through in order to be born as a human and rise to the level of a god.
Since martial arts was created in this world, countless strong people must have experienced their own failures and successes on this path.
Either crumble like a dry leaf, or become a giant who left a mark on this distant history of martial arts.
And today I… … I took half a step closer to the giants.
Suagh.
The energy of the world, which had been hidden in the air, shimmered along the outstretched fingertips as if possessed.

The moment Baeksang was about to enter the residence, he realized that an uninvited guest had arrived ahead of him.
‘This.’
It’s subtle, but it’s definitely a familiar energy. It’s even more strange that Baeksang doesn’t recognize it.
Perhaps the uninvited guest who was waiting for him also wished for it.
“You guys just go back.”
The escort warrior who opened the door one step ahead
They hesitated at Baeksang’s words. The gray-haired escort who had been by his side for thirty years already opened his mouth.
“Lord. still… …
“It’s done. It’s enough just to keep an eye on the surroundings.”
The captain of the guard, who stared at Baeksang for a while at the cool voice, scattered throughout the manor with his subordinates.
Baeksang, who glanced at the scene, grabbed the doorknob and pushed.
Seruk.
It was already dark outside, but the inside of the residence was bright.
There was a person waiting for a white statue in a place that was as spacious as the chieftain’s dwelling, and on the other hand, was extremely simple.
“You’re late. Where are you going?”
Baeksang calmly replied.
“You already know, don’t you? Princess:
A bitter smile formed on the mouth of the uninvited guest, Beast Tomb King.
Low-in sub-team
