Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 121

Flash!
The tree branch that was stuck on the ground gave off its brilliance this time again.
‘I don’t like having to watch something like that every time.’
The brightness is so bad that you wonder if something will happen to your eyesight if you keep looking at it.
At that time, Daesung, who didn’t want to look at me, raised his arms at an angle to block my view.
[The space-time and ecosystem of ‘Plomaria’ have been assimilated to Earth.]
[The space-time and ecosystem of ‘Oak Land’ have been assimilated to Earth.] [
Languages are being integrated to adjust balance due to ‘planet modification’.]
[ Integrated dimension information: Plomaria]
– The ‘Lando’, a race of swords and magic, resides.
– Compared to Earth’s civilization, it is most similar to the Middle Ages.
– Kielan Dorgov, the third king of the Kingdom of Plomaria, rules over the continent.
[Integrated dimensional information: Oak Land]
– A new continent developed by branching off from the southern continent of Plomaria. All citizens are made up of ‘Orcs’.
– Compared to Earth’s civilization, it is most similar to the primitive era and maintains a diet of the fittest and the fittest.
– Shaman Orc ‘Bulg’ reigns as the leader of the tribe. Aside from that, dragons are worshiped like gods.
This is before I even read the entire text written in the system message.
Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
At Daeseong’s feet, a complex shape began to form as he scratched the floor.
For a moment, his body floated upward as if gravity had disappeared.
Before I knew it, I was in a cave with flickering lights without any other light source.
“Ugh…what is this place again?”
“Damn it! “What the hell has been happening since before?”
“Huh you? Why are you here? “Isn’t this Korea?”
There were voices of deep embarrassment and swearing coming from all directions.
I looked around calmly and saw that there were about thirty people gathered around.
‘Hunters from B-class to S-class.’
They were high-ranking hunters, both domestic and foreign, who were considered the best on the planet.
While some people were already familiar from what I saw in the media, there were also quite a few faces I had never seen before.
“Jake, are you here too!”
“I was fighting those gilled monsters in California and then suddenly I came here. “Ugh, I’m completely out of my mind.”
Those who were already familiar with each other exchanged greetings with suddenly brightened expressions.
It would be nice to find a familiar face in a situation where you have been kidnapped to a mysterious place.
‘There are three S-class hunters from Japan, the Middle East and the United States. The rest are mostly B or A class.’
The space inside the cave was ridiculously small compared to the thirty people gathered there.
In a crowded place like Dottegi Market, Daesung stayed in a corner and quietly observed the strength of the members.
Is it because he is holding his breath in the corner of a small space? Or maybe it was because I was so embarrassed by the given situation that I had no sense of relief.
Those here were not yet aware of Daesung’s presence.
In fact, the current situation itself was within the expected range because it was recorded in the 4th priority information of the Void Record.
However,
‘If it’s as written there, soon…’
a bloody wind will blow.
As soon as that fact flashed through my mind, an echo rang out in the cave that was full of murmurs.
< Even though they were selected at random, they all look really stupid! >
“Surprise! “What?!”
People who were startled by the echo stopped what they were saying and became silent.
< Oh? Even though he has a stupid face, it looks like he has at least some concentration. Anyway, I don't like talking at length, so I'll explain it just once. Listen carefully. >
People looked around as if they had no idea where the sound was coming from in a cave without speakers.
The Heogongrok states that this is a type of magic that sends a recorded voice through the flowing wind.
Of course, people who have never experienced things like ‘witchcraft’ or ‘magic’ would not be able to fully accept it.
< This is a test to weed out the strong. From here, no more, no less, only one person can get out alive. >
The moment the echo in the cave let out a bombshell.
The people who were making a fuss froze as if a fuse had blown in their brains.
< I like strong warriors. If you want to get out of here, kill the guys next to you and survive as best as you can. See you later then. >
“What kind of bullshit is that!”
“hey! Hey you bastard! “I don’t know who it is, but can’t you stop being a bitch?!”
People poured out all kinds of abusive language, but no echo was heard anymore.
Everyone fell silent at the same time, as if they had agreed in advance.
The crowd was so dumbfounded that laughter broke out.
“No shit… what is this…”
“Everyone! You sure don’t believe that nonsense, do you? “We are not fools, let’s not be fooled by those words!”
“Kill the person next to you? That’s bullshit! “Let’s all work together to find a way out of here!”
Starting with someone’s shout, the chaos quickly returned to order.
These are also talented hunters who have engaged in all kinds of desperate battles at the gate and have made it their business.
They were people who could make judgments about how to act most effectively rather than being swayed by a given situation.
But that order was shattered in less than a minute.
“Huh?!”
The man who declared that he would be the first to find a way out suddenly fell while moving forward.
Only then did people discover that a translucent membrane blocked the front and back of the cave except for a certain radius.
‘This is a unique barrier. There is no physical way to escape.’
It has a similar structure to the < Room of Erosion >, which has the power to show trauma by trapping it in a barrier.
In order to escape the inherent barrier, you must meet the conditions set by the magician.
And the condition set here, as I said, would be to kill everyone.
‘I got caught up in a really shitty situation.’
What crime can they have? It’s the same for these people who are also unlucky and suffering from scabies.
If possible, I wanted to find a way to get out of here without seeing blood.
Unfortunately, Heogongrok only informed us of the upcoming situation and did not provide a clear solution.
“Get out of the way! “I’ll try to destroy that thing!”
The man standing at the center of the crowd shouting excitedly was Shuhei Okada, a Japanese S-class hunter.
He is a renowned and skilled person with the record of conquering the most level 2 gates across the wide archipelago.
Whioooo!
Auras gathered around his fist, making the cave even colder.
People who saw the vast airflow made an audible noise.
‘Try doing that for 100 days.’
Daesung, who knew it was a fool’s errand, quietly took out a cigarette and tried to think of a solution.
Sure enough, Okada’s strike, which put all his effort into it, did not inflict any effective damage on ‘Mak’.
Okada grabbed his fist, and the disappointed people let out a groan.
‘Do we really have no choice but to kill them all?’
I don’t like it because it gives me a bad aftertaste when I put useless blood on it.
A little more time passes and
“…no matter what we do, that wall never breaks.”
“…What did that guy say earlier? “Did you say that only the last one left can get out alive?”
“….”
Silence.
“It’s all you. “Why are you looking at me all of a sudden?”
“Hi?! “Don’t touch me!”
“Isn’t that bastard’s eyes a bit suspicious?”
At some point, the atmosphere started to turn strange.
People who had been united in hope until just now began to show distrust.
Whenever I heard a rustling sound, I started to scream and swear.
There was no conversation, but the air flowing in the cave was saying this on behalf of everyone’s thoughts.
-The only way to get out of here is to kill everyone but me!
…Called.
Hwiiing-.
The aura condensed again into Okada’s fist hovering near his pelvis.
He is an S-class hunter.
Except for Jake Griffin from the United States and Khalid from the Middle East, both of whom are also S-class, he has no opponents. If the circumstances arise, exterminating them all would not be an empty fantasy.
‘Should we target Jake and Khalid first? No. If you relax too much from the beginning, you will end up losing your strength later.’
Shuhei’s eyes were busy rolling.
A sudden moment.
“uh?”
Only then did Shuhei, or most of the people here, look around and notice.
“What you looking at.”
The presence of a white-haired man squatting in the corner, puffing on a cigarette.
“I’m thinking, so don’t disturb me. “Don’t do anything rash.”
“Ha Han Dae-seong? You are Han Dae-seong, right? Why are you here….”
“Do you understand? I told him not to disturb me. I emphasize again, don’t do anything rash. “You either smoke like me or you chat with familiar faces.”
Even at this moment, Daesung was thinking about a way to get out of here without killing them.
However, unfortunately, Daesung’s love for humanity, which can be described as complacent, did not reach the hearts of those here.
‘Holy shit, Han Dae-seong… It’s hard to have Han Dae-seong…’
‘Without measure, he’s the biggest problem here!’
‘Damn, this is as obvious as fire. No matter how hard I try, there’s no way I can do anything about that bastard.’
Surviving here alone means, in other words, being the strongest.
And no one dared doubt that the strongest person here was Daesung.
“….”
Without anyone opening their mouth first, the gazes of the three S-class people crossed.
A silent conversation continued. And the heads nodded simultaneously.
Jerk.
After reaching some kind of agreement, the three S-class members stepped forward on behalf of the group.
The rest of the people at the rear followed suit and took a timid step.
“You’re such a fool to think. “Your mindset is worse than that of an amoeba.”
No matter how stupid they are, they wouldn’t be able to see their faces gulping and their expressions hardened without noticing them.
They are as united as when they first came here. In a very bad way.
“I guess it’s a ploy by you all to band together and do something to me, right? “I’m the strongest here, so I’ll take care of myself first and then think about it.”
“We know that you are strong. But fuck…! “There are 30 hunters, so how can they not handle just you!”
Shuhei, with a blood clot in his neck as if he had made a decision, shouted.
Daesung burst out laughing and flicked the cigarette with his finger.
“I was such a fool that I wondered if I could somehow get out of here to save you guys.”
“No one can leave here until everyone but me is gone!”
“I don’t think it’s completely wrong, but just correct one thing.”
Daesung, who was in a squatting position, finally lifted his butt off the floor.
That was the moment when the entire group became thoughtful and took half a step back.
Pick-.
Jake, who was standing in the vanguard with Shuhei, suddenly felt his left cheek becoming wet.
When I twitched my eyebrows and scanned my left cheek with my fingers, I
saw bright blood stains appearing on a short node.
“Aaaaaah-!?”
A scream came from behind him, but Jake couldn’t pay any attention to it.
Next to me, Shuhei had become a headless corpse and was gushing out a fountain of blood.
“No one can leave here until everyone but me is gone.”
Daeseong shook the head of Shuhei, who had the same facial expression as when he was alive, not knowing that he was dead.
His last words, which have now become his will, are modified to have different nuances.
How?
You didn’t even move from that spot, right?
Did you just stand still?
Since when?
…The chaos unfolded without any doubts.
“Huh?! Heeeeeek-!!”
“Aaaahhh-!!”
The people, who had lost even one shred of will to fight, cried out and dispersed.
Of course, no matter how much you run, the only thing waiting at the end is a blocking wall.
“These idiots…! “The more things get like this, the more we have to come together.”
The moment Jake panicked when he saw the people scattering apart.
Ujikkeun-.
His vision turned 180 degrees.
“Ouch….”
Jake, whose neck was bent in a deformed manner, managed to break down and shed tears.
Sreung-!
Khalid, an S-class hunter from the Middle East, seemed to have already prepared everything when Shuhei faced death, and swung two daggers wrapped in Aurors.
“Kaaaa-!”
He was the one who sneaked in and assassinated the head of a notorious terrorist group.
With a quick movement like a bullet, it instantly entered the room where the target was and then decapitated it.
And now, he moved with greater speed than before and drew a diagonal line on the nape of Daesung’s neck.
Certainly, the speed was fast enough for Daesung’s vision to miss it for a moment.
Ting-!
However, if the weapon does not cut the enemy’s vital points, it is nothing but a sandfish.
“omg…!”
Khalid’s pupils immediately shot up as he stared in bewilderment at the metal object bouncing in the air.
Fuhuuk-!
Daesung said, pulling back his right hand that had been inserted deep into his uvula.
“It’s better to do it this way because it makes me feel more at ease. “There is no unpleasant aftertaste.”
The reason I hesitated whether to kill them or not was because they were innocent.
And currently, Daesung’s ultimate goal was not to escape from here.
[First feat achievement condition: Defeat the ‘High Orc Champion’.]
[When you achieve the feat, the next feat achievement condition is unlocked.]
To be precise, get out of here and kill the High Orc Champion.
There was someone else who really needed to be caught, but massacring innocent people was not something that Daesung was very happy about.
That’s why we thought about ways to reduce senseless killings. Although it is no longer meaningless.
at that time.
“Please save me!”
“We didn’t plan on doing anything to you! “Oh, those bastards forced themselves to instigate it…!”
“Trust me! It’s true!”
People who belatedly faced reality began to desperately lower their heads to the ground and beg for their lives.
They realized that it was pointless to join forces with the remaining small children when three S-class people died like a lightning bolt.
Daesung exhaled coldly.
“Do not lie.”
“That’s not a lie! “I swear to my deceased parents-.”
Suddenly!
Daesung, who embodied the ‘dagger of judgment’ for the first time in a while, cut the top of the head of a man who was talking about his dead parents in half.
“It’s not a lie. “It was clearly visible that they were trying to manipulate me.”
It’s not a guess.
In fact, from the moment they started flocking with dark intentions, Daesung was activating his ‘Eye of Insurgency’.
Naturally, the ‘stigma’ came to mind for all 30 people, without exception.
“Anyone who has a will to leave behind, come out. “Please listen.”
“Hey Iik-?!”
“Hwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-?!
The people realized that no matter how much they prayed, it was useless, so they picked up their bodies and ran away again.
Well, it was still a rat in a poison.
Deep! Deep! Deep!
Daesung quietly walked to the side of the distraught people and personally guided them to the underworld.
Hell wasn’t far away.
***
1 minute later.
“….”
In the middle of the bloody corpse field, Daesung stroked his blood-soaked hair.
Suuuu-.
While I was caught up in the lukewarm lingering sensation, the entire cave began to sway and slowly disappear.
When the conditions are met, the unique barrier is lifted.
And the place that was revealed was a majestic circular arena with strong winds blowing and sand on the floor.
“Oh oh! Comrades! Look over there! “A brave warrior has appeared!”
“Oh hum! Oh hum! Oh hum!”
“Congratulations on passing the test, human! And welcome to the Arena, warrior!”
A large man with skin as black as coal and his hair tied to one side sat at the head of the arena and shouted loudly.
A dangerous type of high orc that can be encountered with a slim probability even at the gate.
And he was also the one who dragged Daesung into this shitty incident.
“Oh hum! Oh hum! Oh hum!”
The nearly thousands of orcs that filled the stands cheered.
High Oak stood up from the head table with his arms wide open.
“I am the son of the great being ‘Bulg’ and the High Orc Champion ‘Tov’! As soon as I was freed from the time of pain, I wanted to find a new strong person to make me happy-.”
“Summon the annihilating dragon.”
Suddenly, black flames radiating roughly onto the sandy floor interrupted the High Oak Champion’s words.
The moment when the exasperated High Orc Champion was about to say something harsh.
Koooooooo-!!
A dragon large enough to swallow up half of the vast circular arena threw back its head and roared loudly.
“De Dragon?”
For reference, dragons are beings that the leader of the tribe and Shaman Orc ‘Bulg’ reveres like a god.
A great god who I have no doubt that someday he will burn the Orcs, who are treated as a ‘minority race’, and take them to heaven!
But why did that god jump out of that human’s palm right now?
“…What is it?”
The High Oak Champion forgot what he was going to say and began to sweat.
Something…
something is going wrong.
