How to Live as an Illegal Healer - Chapter 473
485. Abduction 1
“The story so far.
After a long fight, the night party succeeded in defeating Tehes, one of the ‘Four Disasters’ and the barrier that protects the vessels of the gods, in the swampy area under the black water of the Western Pollution Zone. They get their first bowl like that and decide to move on to their next target, the northern contaminated area ‘Zirniye’…” “Oh,
what bullshit, really.”
“Because we haven’t even reached the swamp yet?”
It’s already been 4 hours since the Yame Party walked northeast as indicated by the [Compass of the Forgotten God].
“No, I was wondering if it would come naturally if I narrated it like this.”
“Will it work?”
“Can’t I?”
“It will work.”
Of course, getting to the swamp and defeating one of the four plagues was just the usual Alec bullshit, and the real savage party was still roaming the wet and rotten Tehess.
“It’s so hard… No matter how much you think about it, this is not a place for people to live.”
Kim Ho-jung sighed and muttered.
Contaminated monsters that attack whenever they have a chance are also a threat, but it was not easy to move forward in this area because the ground itself was rotten and rubbed.
To compare, it feels like walking on a muddy dirt road right after rain.
“My feet are soaked, so it’s hard to walk… Because of the poison, my stamina is dropping…”
“Walking on all fours would be more comfortable than now.”
“You mean to die? no!”
“It’s hard and uncomfortable.”
“Even though it is difficult and uncomfortable, I want to live as a human being!”
“I have no problem.”
For reference, Lee Ji-ah was wearing [Air Walk], so she was alone.
Boogle Boogle.
Push Yiyi!!
Not only that, but there are frequent expansion phenomena in which the land swells up here and there in Tehes.
“uh!”
“Gas burst!”
This is caused by poison gas generated during the process of decaying the ground, so if you don’t avoid it right away when this expansion part bursts, a terrible accident occurs in which the whole body is exposed to poison as the gas erupts.
“Kaeaeak!!!”
“That’s it! The lizard bastard burst it!”
“That’s not a lizard, it’s a salamander.”
The problem is that the contaminated monsters of Tehes are not affected by this poison gas at all, so when a human prey passes by, they intentionally explode the expansion part and leak the poison gas.
“In addition, it is a monster that emits venom from its body, so if you touch it with your bare hands, you will be poisoned right away…”
The monster that attacked this time is a contaminated Velika salamander.
Min Su-yeon was kindly explaining, but
“At times like this, you should be beaten.”
“Quit!”
“Get lost!”
Fuck!
Kang Seung-hyeon, without hesitation, struck down the contaminated Velika salamander.
Anyway, salamander-type monsters have excellent regenerative power, so rather than slicing or stabbing them.
puck! Fuck! Puff!
It’s because it’s better to knock them down with blows until they collapse from exhaustion.
“They say you’ll get poisoned if you touch that.”
“…It did.”
“Is Kang Seung-hyun just losing?”
“Is the existence of ‘Venom’ also paying attention to Healer hyung?”
“You’re not human, then.”
“Rather than that, isn’t that Venom, not Poison?”
Of course, the reason why Kang Seung-Hyun is fine even when he defeats a contaminated monster with his bare hands is because the poison notices it… It’s absolutely not. It was thanks to the [Gloves of the Silver Screen] obtained earlier.
[Gloves of the silver screen]
[Summons ‘gloves of the silver screen’ when activated.]
[Automatically purifies pollutants that touch the gloves.]
[Poison resistance +300%]
Not only was it possible to hit, but it was also possible to attack much more painfully.
“How does Underland deal with living in a place like this?”
“Well, this is the easiest compared to other contaminated areas. And the Underworld.”
“Is this easy…”
“Anyway, Tehes doesn’t have much to worry about unless he’s addicted.”
“That guy is the ‘weakest’ of our Four Heavenly Kings.”
In this way, the night party was somehow moving towards the swampy area under the black water.
rustle!
“huh?”
“Shh!”
I felt someone’s presence among the withered trees.
“Aagh!”
“What are these bastards!”
As I got closer, I could see a duo being attacked by a group of people.
“These are the bottom end of the Underworld.”
Kang Seung-hyun immediately activated [Observation Eye] and found the Underworld badge attached to the inside of one of the assailants’ jackets.
“Wow, they’re going to crowd real people and beat them.”
“There are no other people around here right now…. Even if I kill anyone, no one will know.”
“I’ve confirmed your identity, so there’s no need to waste any more time.”
Seunghyeon Kang took out the [Dagger of Blue Moon] and smiled.
“I’ll deal with it right away.”
Tadat!
At the same time, he jumped through the trees.
Wow!
Shagaak!
“Hehe!”
“excuse me.”
He kicked one of the Underworld guild members vigorously and swung his knife.
“What is this bird…!”
The other guild members who saw the situation swung their weapons and tried to attack Kang Seung-hyeon, but
Shiaaaa!
“Gueg!”
He was hit by a translucent hand bone that suddenly appeared and was pinned to the floor, only to be pierced by a knife.
“Hehe! Teacher Kang!”
“Oh, have you already dealt with two of them?”
“Anyway, I have a really impatient personality.”
“Are you a real healer?”
Of course, the only one who could see that hand was Kang Seung-hyeon who used [Ho: Ruth’s Hand].
“What are these?”
“doesn’t care. The more ingredients, the better!”
“okay! Rather, it worked!”
The Underworld guild members tried to jump vigorously toward the night party.
“Wait a minute! wait!”
“These bastards… They’re the Admiral’s Knights!”
“what?”
They stopped moving after realizing that they were the only ‘Admiral Knights’ with the right to referee in the contaminated area of the opening hall.
“This is it… I can’t help it because I was caught.”
“You never really hid it.”
“You dare to disturb the sacred contaminated area with evil deeds… You must be prepared, right?”
Regardless of whether Min Soo-yeon looked at him or not, Alec shouted as he confidently walked out as if he had been waiting for this moment.
“We are the famous Admiral Knights Task Force A-0613.”
“TF 0613?”
“What is that?”
“my birthday. Please remember and congratulate me.”
“What can I do…”
Cheak!
[Blood Blood – Helven]
The moment the man was dumbfounded, the blood that gushed from Alec’s fingertips turned into a red sword and cut through it at high speed.
“Kuk!”
“So, I ask for cupcakes for my birthday present!”
“You bastard…!”
The guild members tried to swing their swords at Alec while holding their shoulders.
“Hey you idiot! Are you crazy?”
“If you kill the Templars, we will be wanted!”
“Just jump out!”
“Sheesh!”
Alec was forced to step back because of the fancy Templar uniform he was wearing.
“They’re nothing if it’s not for authority!”
“Those bastards don’t have the skills to kill us anyway. It’s enough to get rid of them as usual…”
Anyway, the Admiral’s Knights are a group made up of people from the Azul Continent, and the idiots in the Contaminated Zone are dimension movers.
So even if you couldn’t kill the Admiral’s Knights for your own reasons, it was the Underworld where getting rid of them was no problem.
Sugar!
“Who sent you?”
“Cuck!”
The problem was that the members of the Admiral Knights encountered this time were not ordinary citizens of the Azul Continent, but the (self-proclaimed) task force A-0613 made up of dimension movers.
“This son of a bitch…”
“Isn’t it about time you noticed? Since when did the Admiral’s Knights use such a striking weapon?”
“Were you a dimension mover?”
“You should have noticed sooner.”
Kang Seung-hyeon turned the [Blue Moon Dagger] and quickly cut the guy’s throat.
Shaak!
“Keuouk!”
Of course, since he’s a dimension shifter, it’s normal that he won’t die by slitting his neck once.
[Miracle of Teratoma]
Rurruk!
Push!
Sharp ribs protruded from the slashed nape and tore his neck to shreds.
“Crazy…”
“What is that?”
The Underworld guild members who saw the scene looked at Kang Seung-hyun with hard faces.
They were also dimension movers, so they were never without skills.
However, it was never enough to enter the contaminated area, and it was a case where they stayed in Tehes because of Underworld’s policy in the first place.
“I know you are members of the Underworld guild.”
“Ugh…”
“Apart from that, I have a few questions about the Underworld, so can you answer them if it’s okay?”
Kang Seung-hyeon was talking with a smile on his face, but the Underworld guild members couldn’t help but laugh because something that had been ‘ribs’ was still hanging down in front of him.
“As expected, [Miracle of Teratoma] is perfect for performance.”
“It’s scary just looking at it. It’s disgusting… If you ask me a question like that, you’ll end up making up words that weren’t there?”
“But Mr. Kang can treat you with that. Awesome.”
“Awesome. Who else can beat people with their intestines and treat them?”
Lee Ji-ah and Kim Ho-jung, who were watching this, waited for Kang Seung-hyun’s reaction while chatting lightly.
“What do you want?”
“Anyway, you guys are the lowest level guys who could have disappeared from the guild, so I don’t think you know very important information, so I’m going to ask something simple.”
“It’s true, but it’s really ruthless…”
“How long does it take from here to the swamps under the black water?”
“20 minutes…”
“Then we are almost there.”
In other words, after 20 minutes, you can tell whether the crack in the swamp under the black water is a barrier protecting the vessel or not.
‘Of course, I’ll have to deal with the intruders before that.’
Kang Seung-hyeon thought about asking about the size of the Underworld, but decided to ask something else instead because he didn’t think he needed to listen to the opinion of the lower ranks.
“Ah, you know the head of Hind Village, right? Liwen Husher. In fact, we’re here to find him.”
“…Damn it somehow.”
After hearing that, the guild member clicked his tongue as if he knew it.
Originally, the special forces in the contaminated area do not enter this deep unless they are searching for missing persons.
“I already know that the Underworld guild is a group of idiots who kidnap people from Tehes and change them.”
“….”
“Did you kidnap the branch manager Liwen too?”
Upon hearing the question, the guild member spat out an answer with a face that could not say anything.
“It’s a bit ambiguous.”
“What do you mean?”
“He walked all the way to our hideout on his own feet. Can we call that a kidnapping?”
