CH 154

Rusty city (3)

“If you’re one of the paladins…”…”

Kang hajin and Baek Ho-min faced each other.

It was clear that the traces of the body that Baek Ho-min found in the alley were caused by paladin.

Kang hajin opened his mouth first.

“Are you a paladin named Hongryeon?””

Mokttukgaksi squinted and looked at Kang hajin.

“You know. Well, he’s one of the paladins working on the tower, so he deserves it.”

“We knew for a slightly different reason. Hongryeon is the chair of Dragon in a three-story serial murder case.”

Moktukgaksi shut her mouth.

It is not clear whether she knew the fact or not.

However, she was willing to cut the criminal’s neck to stop Platinum Lord from mass destruction.

“Who found out about that?””

“Youngjoo taught me this. She said keep a close eye on the paladin group, but don’t touch it until you cross the line in respect of the paladin group. I guess you already knew.”

Moktukgaksi remained quiet and soon answered.

“Yeah. I knew what Hongryeon was doing. But she left it unattended because she was strictly following the norms she had suggested. Platinum Lord would have allowed that.”

Platinum Lord gave atheistic palladin the right to punish dangerous criminals.

It was a decision made by Platinum Lord, believing in the character of each Moktukgaksi and paladins.

Even so, it was ironic that Moktukgaksi, who was trying to stop the monster, had a person closer to the monster than anyone else.

But originally, heroes and monsters are one step apart.

It is a moment when a hero turns into a monster if he takes a wrong step.

Kang hajin said with a sharp expression, looking at Moktukgaksi.

“Yes. But if the paladin kidnapped the lord, the story would be different.”

Platinum Lord respects Paladin’s right to punishment, and Paladin’s right to rule Platinum Lord.

Therefore, the paladin group captured the criminal as much as possible and handed it over to the lord even if he had the authority to punish him.

Platinum Lord was the system itself.

It was close to the collapse of the system for the paladin group to touch such a lord.

“Isn’t that why you don’t play it yourself even though it’s hard to agree with what the lord is doing?” Because what Youngjoo does is not for her own movie but for her cause?”

That was the line of Moktukgaksi

If Platinum Lord had put the city at risk for her own greed, Moktukgaksi would have immediately kept her in check.

“That’s right. Hongryeon is crossing the line now. That’s why we’re tracking down to take responsibility.”

“Where is Paladin Hongryeon now?””

Moktukgaksi pointed to the sky, or the top of the tower, and said.

“Now it’s already over one floor.”

Kang Hae-jin’s expression was filled with distrust.

It was too fast.

It was also unbelievable to kidnap an adult woman, also an uncooperative and powerful wizard, far away.

Even that the kidnapper was Paladin, whose name is not well known.

“I know it’s weird. However, it is speculated that Hongryeon has an accomplice.”

“An accomplice?”

“Yeah. Those who want to rule out Platinum Lord.”

“…are there still people like that left?”

Platinum Lord worked hard not to get caught up in useless things while proceeding with the counterattack.

It was part of the work that took a long time to organize the tower.

Thanks to this, Platinum Lord was unable to unite and scattered even if a protestor appeared.

“You must have seen it on your way here, too. The body that was brutally murdered.”

“Oh…”

Baek Ho-min recalled the hunter killed by Hongryeon.

“Wait, if that’s an accomplice…”…”

“There’s something wrong with my accomplices.” Or Hongryeon had another calculation from the beginning. Anyway, he is kidnapping Platinum Lord smoothly and dragging her upstairs.”

Since there was no contradiction in the testimony and behavior of Moktukgaksi, the Baek Ho-min party decided to act with the paladin group.

Since the paladin group itself was a powerful force, it was clear that it would be of great help in dealing with parasites.

However, Baek Ho-min had to explain one more thing before leaving.

“Let me explain why Platinum Lord brought the general public and the five-story parasitic ecosystem.”

Platinum Lord’s plan and reason were all inclusive explanations.

If I didn’t explain this in advance, there was a possibility that I would have occurred because I rescued Platinum Lord later.

Paladins seemed surprised to hear the story of the ecosystem, but only Moktukgaksi looked calm.

“Did you already know?””

“I’ve already been to the fifth floor when I was a teacher. The appearance of parasitic species has changed completely, but the original form of fear is bound to be trendy.”

“Even if you already knew, it must have been hard to agree to Platinum Lord’s plan, right?”

It was former head of the Paladin group and constellation Yoon Seul who conquered the five-story world. I participated as an assistant. You can conquer it without sacrificing the general public.”

Platinum Lord said something similar.

But she wasn’t just looking at the five-story system.

Beyond that, I was looking at the other towers that would be waiting, and even the 6th and 7th floors.

Even so, it was hard to say who was right or wrong.

Paladin and Baek Ho-min’s party packed their bags and hurried off. I don’t know where Hongryeon will be, but I had to catch up quickly before it was too late.

Kang hajin said as he ran along Moktukgaksi.

“It would be nice to track down if you could explain about the article Hongryeon.””

Mokttukgaksi frowns and looks at Kang hajin.

She didn’t seem to want to talk much, but as Kang Hae-jin said, she had to know as much about her opponent as possible for tracking.

“…Hongryeon was a talented but problematic child.”

“You made the person with the problem paladin”?”

“Yeah. Before entering, there was an opinion that it would be better to cut your neck now before going the wrong way.” However, he has never done anything wrong enough to hit his neck, and if he teaches well, he has the potential to grow well. In the end, it was my decision to make him paladin.”

Moktukgaksi looked at the other paladins one by one. From re-hitter, self-help, and dark energy.

“We tried to raise him properly with all our passion and sincerity. He is the first rookie to accept the paladin group since it was changed to an atheistic paladin group. I was able to become a paladin without knowing any harm to the church.”

Moktukgaksi muttered silently.

“The child’s success could be proof that we were right.”

Baek Ho-min, who was hearing it from the side, looked at Moktukgaksi with an expression of not knowing what to say.

As she said, the atheistic paladin group became a monster on its own instead of giving up serving a monster called the denomination.

Kang hajin, who was listening quietly, opened his mouth.

“Then, Hongryeon went out of the way…”…”

There are 30 prospective palladins under the Hongryeon. They’re all smart and upright. My values won’t be shaken just because he’s wrong.”

Moktukgaksi immediately said it as if cutting his neck. Baek Ho-min was relieved to see her firmness despite her failure.

Come to think of it, Moktukgaksi is a person who immediately cut off the necks of the elders of the church and uprooted their faith itself as soon as they knew that they had made the wrong choice.

She couldn’t have been shaken by a minor failure.

Baek Ho-min liked the unshakable appearance of Moktukgaksi.

So I didn’t realize that the light fear was slowly leaking out of her hard face.

Boom, crunch.

Boom, crunch.

A sword wielded by Moktukgaksi hit the reinforcement and walls of the building at once and cut down the parasitic species.

As she is unrivaled in cutting something, the number of parasitic species killed was overwhelming compared to others.

“It’s coming out from the bottom!”

Paladin dark energy Lynn felt the light vibration of the ground and immediately.

A scream broke out under the ground.

Breaking through the windows and the light floor, a parasitic species with long limbs like mosquitoes soared out. When the vibration did not stop as the building was destroyed, everyone tried to balance it.

After entering the 41st floor, the parasite species’ attacks intensified and the terrain became more dangerous.

The topography of the five-story system was similar to that of the four-story system. A long, arbitrary tower and a place where red crystals were frozen like a bridge formed one floor by one. If you reach the highest point, you can go to the next floor.

While fighting, Baek Ho-min became dizzy at the distant height that seemed to be a niche.

It was unfriendly, but it was true that it was much easier to walk compared to the four-story system. The problem was that it seemed prone to collapse.

“Hold tight!”

Baek Ho-min broke the window and went inside. Parasitic species, which had yet to come out of it, were stepping on the floor as if breaking down the wall at any moment.

The moment he made eye contact with them in the dark, Baek Ho-min flashed his eyes and used a reminiscent skill.

[Reminding: Martial King]

[Experience: High-rise, enclosed space, irregular parasite, etc.]

[Similar experience: 29.8%]

[Due to the similarity of experience, the synchronization rate increases significantly]

The quagar angle.

In a narrow space, Wuje grabbed a bowl of muksabal and started sword dance.

In an instant, blood, bones, and flesh splashed everywhere.

“You seem to like the bowl of muk.”‘

Martial King was running wilder than before.

Of course, it’s thanks to the good weapon, but among the circuits, “detail.”

There was also a virtue of reinforcing the part.

Strength and agility are also important in using sword techniques, but muscle control is as important as that.

The stronger the circuit, the better the constellations were to dance.

Yoon Seul’s lamp, which burns more roughly in the dark, dug through the shadows and split the parasitic species.

Sneak! Sneak!

Martial king finished the last parasite sharply without even feeling the knife touching the bone.

Baek Ho-min ended the recall skill with a rough breath.

After taking a breath, he came out of the window and looked down at him as if the paladins were dumbfounded.

“I heard about this, but more than I thought…”…”

“There’s a reason why the leader was greedy.”

When the paladins were whispering, Moktukgaksi distorted his face and retorted.

“Don’t say nonsense.””

As soon as Baek Ho-min tried to stand up with a smile, his body faltered and tilted.

Just before his body collapsed in the air without a railing, the paladin re-hitter quickly grabbed his arm.

Baek Ho-min looked down at the 40-story panoramic view hundreds of meters below.

It will be difficult to be safe if a few stars fall from height.

Moktukgaksi corrected his expression and approached.

“Monday, what’s going on”?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.” Maybe I used too much circuitry……”

Then Moktukgaksi grabbed his hand and checked the condition of the circuit.

I knew that Baek Ho-min was using skill in exchange for opening the circuit. But the circuit wasn’t very hot.

“The problem is not the circuit, but your body.”

“What?”

“You were running wild beyond your body’s ability. When was the last time I slept?”

“The day I left the camp…”…”

“Dinner? Rest? Did you get a proper wound treatment?””

“Eat is beef jerky, rest is run and walk in the middle.” You can just eat potion for treatment.”

To be exact, “Mini Lab” from time to time.

The skill was turned to replace the treatment.

Moktukgaksi frowned and stared at Baek Ho-min.

Baek Ho-min looked upset.

“Paladin and Kang Hajin aren’t sleeping either, right?”

“I’ve been trained to endure even if I don’t sleep for about five days.”

Kang hajin calmly replied.

“How do you do that?””

“Standing up for 10 seconds”? If you keep it in your spare time for about 20 seconds, it’s enough to hold out.”

“How do you do that?””

“We are on the 7th. We are fasting together.”

The same was true of the paladins.

Somehow something was wrong with Baek Ho-min, and he realized that he was with the monsters.

Haru seemed to be the only one to sympathize with. However, Haru was grooming the fur skin that turned into a shadow beast from a distance over there.

Baek Ho-min did not want to form a consensus with someone like that.
