I looked at the personnel in District 1.
There are about ten people.
Unfortunately, the rest of the group was nowhere to be seen.
As I looked around, Hong Dae-hoon smiled and said.
“Why? Are you waiting for your colleagues to arrive?”
As I stared at him blankly, Hong Dae-hoon spoke with a bitter smile.
“Don’t worry about your life. If you give me the fruit you picked earlier, I’ll send you back alive.”
I let out a short sigh.
“I thought you were stupid, but you’re even dumber than I thought.”
“what?”
Ignoring the angry Hong Dae-hoon, I jumped down from the tree.
I said, pointing to the tree.
“Take it if you want. As much as you want.”
Hong Dae-hoon looked bewildered when I gave it to him so readily, even though I had just been cussing him out.
Then, soon, his face turned into a laughing one.
“Kid, just back off quietly… … . I’ll let you off the hook this once.”
Hong Dae-hoon said that and spoke to the people in District 1.
“The person with the higher agility goes up and picks the fruit, and the rest of the people watch over Seo Kang-rim so he can’t escape!”
At those words, several people surrounded me.
I didn’t bother to resist and just waited quietly.
Anyway, I guess I just have to wait a little bit.
People picking Manhyang-gwa had bright smiles on their faces like farmers who had enjoyed a good harvest.
“Wow, I finally found this.”
“I’ve had a hard time getting around, but now I can go back.”
“Hong Dae-hoon! When you receive money, you share it properly, right?”
“Yeah, yeah.”
Everyone was excited and picking Manhyang-gwa.
Meanwhile, a person who was picking fruit dropped the manhwagwa he was holding in his hand.
Hong Dae-hoon screamed when he saw that sight.
“Hey! Handle it carefully!”
“Uh, uh… … . But, my body… … .”
As he spoke, shivering, there was a sound of something crashing down.
It was a person sitting on the opposite branch.
He was foaming at the mouth and his hands were shaking.
“Hey, what’s wrong with you?”
“Wake up!”
“Why on earth is this… … so… … .”
People who were examining the injured began to stagger one by one.
Is it just starting now?
Notification windows began to pop up in front of me.
[The poisonous scent of ‘Manhyang-gwa’ begins to spread.]
A scent that is too strong becomes violence rather than fragrance.
Just like mixing dozens of perfumes in one place doesn’t make the scent any better, it just makes your head spin.
As the fragrance and scent of various flowers filled the surroundings, a nearby flower garden caught my eye.
It was difficult to notice because it was covered by flowers, but there were white bones sticking out here and there.
They were the corpses of those who died while intoxicated by the fragrance of Manhyang.
If I hadn’t raised my ‘Poison Resistance’, I would have ended up like that.
[The effect of ‘Manhyang-gwa’ has been nullified due to ‘Poison Resistance’!]
Behind this beautiful paradise, hell lurked.
Hong Dae-hoon was also staggering, holding his head, as if the poison was starting to spread.
“Damn it… … What the hell is this… … Why, poison… … .”
While others were falling one by one, Hong Dae-hoon was still holding on.
I guess that’s because it’s a noble class.
Or maybe I had built up a tolerance to poison by eating the white and green citrus fruits.
The easiest way to conquer this place.
It was coming here after consuming large quantities of sandalwood and cinnamon and building up tolerance to toxins.
It took a long time, but it was the most reliable way.
Hong Dae-hoon glared at me with bloodshot eyes and said.
“Seo Kang-rim… … Why are you okay… …!”
“It’s a trade secret.”
-Kagan!
As soon as I finished speaking, Hong Dae-hoon came running at me with a weapon in his hand.
He was holding a spear of a unique shape.
A weapon you’ve never seen before.
The light at the end of the day was shining so brightly that it seemed to pierce my eyes.

[Grade] Yongsam-pum (Dragon Third Grade)
[Description] A long-range weapon that can be used for a variety of purposes, including stabbing, cutting, and striking. It has powerful attack power.
═══════════════
What is this? It’s called Bangcheonhwageuk?
Even if it was a replica, it was a weapon that was not easy to obtain at the current level.
I thought it was something I received from a guardian angel, but even so, it was too much.
“Where did you get that weapon?”
“You don’t need to know that. What’s important is… … .”
Hong Dae-hoon glared at me as if he was going to kill me while holding the Bangcheonhwageuk.
“Give me that Manhyang-gwa right now.”
-Kaang!
As soon as I finished speaking, Hong Dae-hoon ran over and swung his Bangcheonhwageuk at me.
Although I blocked the attack, the arm holding the sword started to tingle.
It’s not just because I like weapons.
Hong Dae-hoon’s ability itself was far stronger than mine.
“This kid, he acts like he’s so great, but he’s nothing special… …!”
Hong Dae-hoon also noticed that fact and smiled, revealing his teeth.
The poison from Manhyang has spread and you must be receiving a penalty, but it’s to this extent.
Indeed, it was a skill that made it understandable that District 1 had monopolized the initial attack in the previous life.
“Just throw it away!”
-Kagan, Kang!
He attacked, screaming as if spitting out blood.
As soon as you block an attack, another attack comes from the opposite direction.
Even though I was blocking the attack, I felt as if I was being hit.
There was no room to counterattack and I couldn’t get inside his gap.
“Haha, hahaha! I was scared for nothing!”
He continued to attack with even more momentum.
If things continued like this, it was obvious that I would lose.
However, I did not meet them without any preparation.
[Equipped with the item ‘Lightning Strike Map (Unrefined)’!]
I quickly took out the map from the low tide and held it.
Hong Dae-Hoon seemed perplexed by the sudden appearance of the weapon.
Now, there’s only more confusion left.
[The ability ‘Hermit’ is activated!]
“This kid again… … !”
As I disappeared from sight, Hong Dae-hoon screamed in anger.
I quickly stepped into his gap and swung my sword.
The six blades were gnawing at Hong Dae-Hoon like the teeth of a beast.
-Kaang!
However, my sword was blocked by the spear that Hong Dae-Hoon swung recklessly.
Luck seemed to be on Hong Dae-hoon’s side.
Hong Dae-hoon started screaming when he noticed that I was getting closer.
“If you come near me, I will kill you!”
He started swinging his sword in all directions.
The surrounding grass and trees were being cut down in an instant, as if a gust of wind was blowing.
【Wow, crazy Bangcheonhwageuk class.】
【Hey Kangrim, just write hermit and run away!】
【Okay, just jump out!】
As the gods chattered, I activated the hermit.
Hong Dae-hoon was still glaring and slashing left and right without mercy.
【It looks like Kangrim ran away.】
【Yeah, that’s wise.】
Running away is the easy way.
Just follow the gods’ words and wear a hermit hat and get out of here.
But there’s no reason to run away when I can win.
I held my breath and just waited.
As Hong Dae-hoon began to swing his spear and his breathing became more labored, his face gradually began to turn purple.
As my breathing became more labored, my breathing became faster and I had no choice but to inhale the scent of Manhyanggwa.
[Hong Dae-hoon is being consumed by Man-hyang’s poison!]
What he had to do was not fight me, but get away from the fragrance and the tree as quickly as possible.
Eventually, not long after, blood began to flow from the corner of his mouth.
After confirming it, he revealed himself.
“I guess the poison has finally spread.”
“This coward… … . Knock knock!”
He barely managed to back away, spitting up blood.
Judging by the tears of blood flowing little by little, it seemed that the poison from Manhyang had almost spread to its limit.
Hong Dae-hoon spoke out of breath, leaning against the tree and the scented candles.
“You… … Do you think you can get out of here safely?”
“… … .”
“Last time, I learned something from you.”
Hong Dae-hoon smiled madly with his blood-soaked face.
He took something out of his bosom.
It was a lighter.
“You too will burn to death here!”
“… … !”
Without even being able to stop him, he set fire to the incense and the wood.
The flames, as if waiting, jumped onto the tree and began to spread in all directions.
I knew you were stupid, but I didn’t know it was this bad.
If that tree burns down, it will be problematic in many ways.
I haven’t collected enough Manhyang-gwa yet.
I rushed to put out the fire, but Hong Dae-hoon used all his strength to stop me.
He was laughing even though he was bleeding.
“Hahaha! Look at how desperate you are… … !”
“If you keep doing this, you’ll die too.”
“If we’re going to die anyway, it’s better to die together!”
I tried to subdue him by using ‘Hermit’, but he did not move away even when I attacked him.
Before we knew it, the fire had spread quickly and sparks began to bloom like flowers on each branch.
As the fire began to burn in the incense burner, its fragrance became stronger.
[The poisonous scent of ‘Manhyanggwa’ is strengthened!]
[You start to become consumed by the scent of poison as your ‘Toxic Resistance’ level exceeds it!]
For a moment, my legs started to wobble.
The scent that had once felt sweet had now gone beyond that level and was starting to make me feel queasy.
As the fire burned, the scent grew stronger.
【Wow, Hong Dae-hoon, that guy is crazy.】
【Are we all going to set fire to this place and die?】
【Hey hey hey Seo Kang-rim, come to your senses!】
【Eww, it’s all burning up!】
Even though I tried to run away, my body wouldn’t listen to me because of the scent and smoke.
The incense and the trees were burning like giant flames.
Even if you have a tolerance for poison, you cannot withstand the strong scent of Manhyang.
If time passed like this, I wouldn’t even be able to move my hands.
I lifted my trembling hands and took the item out of the sink.
Hong Dae-hoon asked with a puzzled look.
“What… … . That egg?”
Unknown eggs and incense fell to the floor with a thud.
I used all my strength to pick up the egg and bring it to the celestial fragrance tree.
-Wow!
The egg smelled the scent of the fragrant incense and began to eat it without thinking.
It was as if I could hear Al’s heartbeat.
Soon a notification window appeared before my eyes.
[The earth attribute of ‘???’s Egg’ increases by 1.1%.]
[Growth Status: 100%]
When the growth status reached 100%, the egg began to vibrate and tremble.
Now it was time to hatch from the egg.
【Ouch, it’s finally hatching!】
【What’s coming out?】
【Hey, but there’s no use hatching it now, right?】
【No! If Hyunmu appears, you can turn off the lights and survive!】
【Idiot, but I just ate too much of the earth attribute!】
The unknown egg’s results vary depending on the properties of the food.
For example, if the attributes of the food are all fire, it is a false alarm.
The attribute of the tree is blue dragon.
The gold attribute is white tiger.
The water attribute is black tortoise.
The earth element was used to give birth to yellow dragons.
[???’s egg starts hatching!]
Slowly, cracks began to appear in the egg and a brilliant light began to pour out.
A shadow of an animal appeared in front of me along with the light.
It was not in the shape of a bird, a dragon, a tiger or a turtle.
