Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound - Chapter 339

Episode 339 Trap (1)

When I look into ‘it’, ‘it’ looks into me too.

Those who hunt ‘it’ must be vigilant lest they become ‘it’ themselves.

On the periphery far beyond the borders of good and evil, far beyond the boundaries of human thinking, ‘they’ are standing in this direction.

-『Memoirs of a Nameless Old Demon Hunter』 (This is the last record found in the bosom of a corpse)-

‘…!’

Bikir opened his eyes in the dark.

There was no body. Only the severed head remains, floating in the air.

Bikir put on a bitter expression.

‘is it. Did I have a dream?’

A short dream I had the moment my throat was cut off.

Everything was just a fleeting Namgaildream.

In the dream, Bikir had achieved many things.

I grabbed everything that had been taken away from me since I was a child.

He uncovered the dark side of death, took revenge on his family’s brothers, and entered the academy to build friendships with future great heroes.

He also found and killed countless large-scale demons.

……but all of this was a dream. It was just a useless bubble.

Now Vikir was facing reality again.

burning land. Mountains and rivers of corpse and blood. Flock of crows infest the sky.

era of destruction. The battle between the human world and the demon world ended with the victory of the human world.

But it was a mere victory.

99% of humanity has been annihilated, and countless great heroes have been cut off.

Once opened, the ‘Door of Destruction’ is not closed, and it is unknown when the 2nd and 3rd demons will come from within.

Because of this, Vikir could not close his eyes even after he died.

At the thought of the comrades who died first and then the comrades who are still alive, despite having their throats cut, they just keep their bloodshot eyes wide open.

at that time.

‘Bikir.’

I heard someone’s voice.

Bikir tried to turn his head, but only his neck remained on the pole, so he couldn’t look back.

‘Bikir.’

However, the voice was approaching this way first.

Before long, a warm hand touches your cheek.

Where I turned my head, a soldier was looking down this way.

A woman with a long scar on her cheek. She had vague, hazy features.

But Bikir recognized her identity at a glance.

‘Sergeant Janet of the 1st Platoon of the 4th Company of the 207th Regiment? Was it alive!’

But she wasn’t alone.

After that, many faces came to mind.

Bikir knew each and every one of them.

‘Captain Circe Hayal Lieutenant Kuberin Sergeant Saladin Corporal Miryamu Private Private Mir Yamu… All of them are alive! I thought I was dead… I thought I was dead!’

Is there anything more gratifying than the return of a comrade whom you thought was dead?

Bikir let go of his throat and cried out.

……but?

The appearance of the comrades who came right in front of me was a little strange.

Could it be the dried blood on the cornea? The red and hazy appearance of his colleagues was quite different from the last memory of Vikir.

‘Sergeant Janet. Come to think of it, the knife marks and burn marks that covered your entire face are completely gone? Her face is fine, so it’s like a young lady who grew up finely.’

‘Captain Circe. Didn’t you lose your left leg in the last battle? I think I made a prosthetic leg…’

‘Lieutenant Hayal. Hey… have your ears regenerated?’

‘Sergeant Kuberin. One eye that was blind again…’

It wasn’t just that.

Junior officers, junior noncommissioned officers, and soldiers who lived in poverty and struggled all their lives before being brought to war.

All of my comrades looked healthy and happy.

Those who had physical defects such as limbs, eyes, ears, etc. appeared in good shape, and those who suffered from poverty and starvation appeared in wealthy and prosperous clothes.

Moment.

Something flashed through Bikir’s mind.

In a dream, Bikir had met a person named Sindi Wendy.

And through her, he sponsored his comrades-in-arms in the future with a large amount of money.

Is that why?

The comrades I met again were alive and not dead.

I was living a happy life doing what I wanted to do without any damage to my body.

And now they have gathered.

Each one holds Bikir’s arms, fingers, legs, toes, ears, nose, mouth, and eyes.

‘Bikir!’

They gathered together and cried out.

Before long, the body parts carried by the comrades are pushed towards Bikir.

Numerous swirls of emotions engraved spiral patterns in my brain.

sorry.

have no face

I’m putting all the burden on you alone.

I will cheer you on.

cheer up.

Go ahead.

Numerous messages make my vision go round and round.

and.

Bikir heard everyone’s words echoing deep in his mind.

‘thanks.’

– Tdyling!

[Leaved the ‘Laboratory of the Dragon Demon’ on the 9th basement floor]

[Entered the ‘Lost Paradise’ on the 10th basement floor]

Loud notification sounds that hit the ears one after another.

“……!”

Bikir opened his eyes.

When I open my eyes, it is an unfamiliar ceiling.

“…I see. This is the reality.”

It’s been a long time since I had a dream that wasn’t a nightmare. Somehow, it seemed that his stamina had recovered a little.

‘If I think that the comrades in my dream have given me strength… I must be too sentimental.’

Bikir raised his head, recalling the dream he had earlier.

White. Only the white space was wide open.

‘This is the place where I went down one floor from the laboratory of Yongmain.’

On the 9th floor, the moment he was crushed by the dragon’s fist, Bikir was once again transformed into a dog and barely escaped.

At the end, if Sinclair hadn’t used her magic with all her might, she would have died.

As soon as Vikir opened her eyes, the first thing she checked was the reward.

–< Strange Candy > / Level / Golden

Candy that raises the level by 1.

It tastes sweet.

-Level +1

50 golden candies.

It was an enormous reward equivalent to 15,000 ordinary candies.

It was probably the result of a combination of the reward for escaping from the Yongmain’s lab and the reward for escaping from the Yongmain’s pursuit.

‘Mysteriously, the item doesn’t come out.’

Could it be because Bikir has told the fairy several times that he doesn’t need item rewards? Strangely enough, only candies came out as rewards.

‘If you were a normal challenger, it would be difficult to clear the mission without an item. The fairies’ tricks to make things difficult for me actually helped.’

Bikir stood up after checking all the rewards.

She was not wearing any clothes, and something soft touched her naked skin.

‘Come to think of it, this is…’

I looked around and saw a comfortable sofa next to me.

Bikir was now lying on a large, soft bed.

Next to it are a desk and chair, silver candlesticks, and various foods such as delicious fruits and bread.

< Paradise Lost Floor 10 >

Bikir already knew information about this floor.

Actually, there is not much information.

Most of the settings are open on this floor, except for some hidden settings, and they are written in kind and detailed text on the wall.

< This is a resting place for challengers who are tired of the ordeal of the Tower! > < The largest candy store in the Tower exists here >

< Challengers can exchange their items for candy here >

< Challengers can bring their items here Candies can be exchanged for items >

.

.

And next to it, there was a catalog with the prices of the items sold in the store.

< Small hard wooden bed- [1 red candy] >

< Large fluffy duck down bed- [2 red candy] >

< Small cloth sofa- [1 blue candy] >

< Large leather sofa- [2 blue candy] >

< 10 cans of cold beer- [1 blue candy] >

< 10 pieces of crispy fried chicken legs- [1 red candy] >

< 5 pieces of sweet whole cake- [1 green candy] >

< 1 modern game console- [ 2 green candy] >

< Letter to the person outside the tower - [1 golden candy] >

.

.

At the bottom of the catalog were written ways to enjoy shopping.

< You can exchange the item you have for candy! >

< When exchanging an original item for candy, you can only get 50% of the price when exchanging candy for an item, but on this floor, 100% is specially exchanged! > < Already Candies that have been eaten and become stats can also be spewed out and turned into candy, especially for residents of this floor! >

< The color of the additional candy is randomly selected from among red, green and blue! >

< Now decorate this empty space by purchasing your own items from the catalog! >

.

.

Bikir looked at the bottom of the notes.

< ※ A small bonus for all of you who must have worked hard to get here! Let's send a message to the person outside the tower who will be waiting for me! >

< ※ Originally, a 'letter item' worth 1 golden candy is provided free of charge to residents of this floor once a month! > < ※ This room The probability of getting into is less than 0.0001%. You are the lucky one who has been chosen! >

< ※ From the next floor, the difficulty level increases by at least 10 times compared to the previous floors! > < ※ Please take a good rest here, reorganize your body and mind, and challenge the tower again! >

This was the end of the guide.

A structure that can fill a large empty space with things bought at a store.

Daily necessities or luxuries at reasonable prices in their own way.

There are no elements that threaten survival, and various rest and entertainment are provided.

Above all, he could send a message to family and friends outside the tower who might be worried about him.

All of these things were not a dream or a mirage, but a definite reality.

……And Bikir thought.

‘It’s the worst.’

The most dangerous layer where all the great heroes who said they were flying before returning were sticking out their tongues.

A trap set by demons to hunt challengers.

The most vicious, meanest, and most outspoken snare in all of the Tower’s quarters was here.
