Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert - Chapter 114
Sand Mage Of The Burnt Desert Chapter 114
Episode 114:
The countless sand thorns that pierced the body of the armored big-horned bear collapsed like lies.
There was no evidence left that the sand had turned into a giant thorn.
All that remains is blood-stained sand.
Even that quickly disappeared, covered by new sand carried by the wind.
“What was it?”
“why?”
Kim Kyung-soo’s party blinked.
It was definitely not an illusion or something I had seen.
With their own eyes, they clearly saw Zeon making thorns using sand.
It was neither a lie nor an illusion.
Zeon’s abilities were clear.
‘You definitely used a flame-type skill, right?’
‘They even use sand there? Then, Dual Awakening?’
I felt goosebumps running down my spine.
It’s amazing that it’s a dual, but another ability is handling sand.
They immediately realized how great and dangerous Xeon’s abilities were.
Although the exact grade is unknown, Zeon’s possibilities were endless simply by being able to manipulate sand at will.
Zeon’s eyes turned to the four people.
“You know you have to keep it a secret, right?”
The four people nodded heavily.
Invisible chains were constricting their hearts.
They instinctively knew that the moment they broke their oath and opened their mouths, the chain would burst their hearts.
‘I became his slave…’
‘Shit!’
‘Fuck!’
‘This life is ruined.’
They bowed their heads.
One greed turned them into slaves.
I couldn’t blame anyone.
Because it was a disaster caused by their greed.
Jeon said to Kyungsoo Kim.
“You are their leader, right?”
“That’s right.”
“Then it’s your job to crack down on them.”
“yes! “I will.”
Kyungsoo Kim lowered his head.
There was a look of resignation on his face.
The others were no different.
No one expected that one wrong choice would lead to such dire consequences.
‘Are you glad that your life was spared?’
Then Zeon asked.
“Where do you live?”
“We live in block 13 of the central district.”
“Is block 13 near city hall?”
“That’s right.”
“Good for you.”
Zeon smiled.
The reason he forced them to obey using the Scroll of the Covenant was because Neo Seoul needed someone to handle the chores.
Kim Kyung-soo’s party had pretty good conditions.
Since he was born in the central district and is a native, he was well-versed in Neo-Seoul’s situation.
Since all four of them are awakened, their uses were endless.
This could be said to be the best handgun Xeon could obtain.
Slaves 1 2 3 4.
Their identities were decided in Zeon’s mind.
Kyungsoo Kim asked cautiously.
“What should we do now?”
“Nothing will change.”
“yes?”
“You four can live as usual and carry out orders when I give them.”
“What kind of order is…”
“It will vary from time to time.”
“yes?”
“Is it unfair?”
“That’s…”
“It’s not the dispute I raised. It’s a disaster caused by your greed. “If you don’t want to follow my orders, there is only one option left.”
Kyungsoo Kim and his colleagues’ eyes trembled.
This is because I felt the cold murderous intent hidden in Zeon’s gentle tone.
The man smiling before their eyes was by no means soft or petty.
If he were that kind of person, he wouldn’t have even dared to use the Scroll of Oath during their attack.
The true face hidden behind that smiling face is frighteningly cool-headed and ruthless.
Now they seemed to know a little bit about Zeon’s true nature.
‘I can’t believe you touched someone like this.’
Regret came over me later, but it was no use.
They could never do anything against Zeon.
“I will follow your orders.”
Kyungsoo Kim bowed his head.
Others followed suit.
Zeon smiled.
I knew very well that they were not sincere.
I didn’t expect real loyalty.
These are merely tools that faithfully carry out his orders.
That was exactly what Zeon wanted from them.
Jeon asked Kyungsoo Kim.
“Do you have any contact items?”
“There is a two-way communicator for the dungeon.”
Kyungsoo Kim took out an earring from his pocket.
It was an air defense item.
It was an item made for communication between party members in the dungeon, and everyone in Kim Kyung-soo’s party was wearing one.
Zeon said as he put the earrings on his ears.
“Good for you. “We will contact you through this from now on.”
“All right.”
“With that, let’s go into Neo Seoul first. “I will contact you separately.”
Zeon pointed to the carcass of an armored bighorn bear.
“But we don’t have a car engine…”
“I’m taking my car. The engine is running smoothly, so it would be worth driving that car. “When I arrive at Neo Seoul, I return the car to a man named Will, who owns a butcher shop in the slums of Sinchon.”
“Then Lord….”
“Just call me Master.”
“yes! master. Then how are you going to come back Master?”
“I guess I forgot what my abilities are. “The desert sand is not a hindrance to me.”
“Mmm!”
Kyungsoo Kim turned around, sighing.
he said to his colleagues.
“Did you hear what Master said? “I’m returning to Neo Seoul with the armored bighorn bear carcass.”
“Does the word ‘master’ come out that easily?”
“What if it doesn’t come out?”
“But you still have pride. “How can you call me Master?”
Lee Junsu looked at Jeon’s eyes and answered.
Kim Kyung-soo glared at Lee Jun-su.
“Is that head an ornament? “Our lives are in his hands, so is it time to show off our clumsy pride?”
“But still…”
“If he tells us to die, we should at least pretend to die, you idiot! Please become aware of reality. “Don’t piss people off.”
“Shit!”
“And you know what? What happens if you say it out loud today? “If you don’t want to be bullied, you can join in on your own.”
“okay.”
In the end, Junsu Lee and his colleagues answered helplessly.
In an instant, I went from a proud awakened person to a slave, so I was bound to lose strength. Still, I had to take comfort in the fact that my life was saved.
“let’s go!”
At Kim Kyung-soo’s order, three people loaded the carcass of the armored bighorn bear into the vehicle and connected the buggy to it.
After completing all preparations, they left for Neo Seoul as soon as daybreak.
Zeon, who was left alone, took out a piece of beef jerky and ate it.
“Good. Even if it wasn’t, I needed a straw to tell me about the situation in Neo Seoul.”
They were all full-time citizens.
The scope of movement was that wide.
The uses were endless.
It’s unfortunate for Kim Kyung-soo’s party who were reduced to slaves overnight, but they don’t feel any guilt.
If you wanted to kill someone else, you had to be prepared that you could do that too.
That was the way of the world.
“Now can we just wait for Levin to come out?”
Quarrr!
I felt a slight vibration beneath my feet.
It was a vibration that occurred while Levin was fighting a vampire bat.
It was proof that Levin was still alive.
Zeon lay down on the sand and chewed some beef jerky.
＊＊＊
“Aaaah!”
A purple glow erupted from Levin’s whole body.
Absolutely! Quick!
A purple electric current flickered from Levin’s entire body, which turned into a ghost and was floating in the air.
Bub bub bub!
The purple electric current spread through the air, burning and exploding the vampire bats surrounding Levin.
Dozens of vampire bats fell from the rainwater at once.
Levin muttered while floating in the air.
“Your grade went up.”
The purple glow from before was a phenomenon that occurred when he was promoted.
With this, Levin became C-level.
While dealing with the killer, I became D-rank, but not long after, I became C-rank. It was a super-fast promotion that was truly unprecedented.
I knew it as soon as I reached C rank.
The fact that it has powers that are on a level different from that of Class D.
Now the vampire bat’s ultrasonic waves could not affect him.
It has been completely ghosted.
In addition, the lightning ability, which is a means of attack, has been further strengthened.
The purple electric current, Purple Lightning, had a destructive power several times stronger than that of white lightning.
Before his level rose, Levin had to face death dozens of times.
Sometimes, I ran out of mana and had to fight a vampire bat with my bare hands.
I cut off their breathing with my teeth and blocked their attacks with my arms and legs.
The wounds that had accumulated like that filled my entire body.
I lost so much blood that I lost consciousness.
I just wanted to give up and die comfortably.
But Levin fought desperately, trying hard to shake off the temptation.
After fighting for days like that, when I reached my limit, I was suddenly promoted.
When I reached grade C, the wounds on my entire body healed as if they had been washed with water, and my whole body was full of vitality.
There were still a lot of vampire bats left, but I no longer felt afraid.
Levin shouted.
“Come on! “You bats.”
Hum!
His voice echoed through the underground space.
The remaining vampire bats were stimulated by this and attacked all at once.
However, the vampire bats’ attack no longer did any harm to Levin.
The vampire bats pierced Levin’s ghost-like body in vain.
We attacked with ultrasonic waves, but it was no use.
A cold smile appeared on Levin’s lips.
“Everyone is upset.”
Absolutely!
At that moment, a net of purple electric current spread throughout Levin’s body.
It was his skill, Purple Lightning.
The only thing that changed was the color, but the power was incomparable.
The purple lightning that filled the cave burned or exploded all the vampire bats.
The cave was filled with the musty smell of burning meat.
“Ugh! “I just can’t stand this.”
Just because I was a ghost didn’t mean I couldn’t smell it.
Rather, my senses became more sensitive and it felt painful.
Levin went up to the ground without removing his ghost mask.
He quickly passed through the sand and came up above the desert.
“You’re here.”
As expected, it was Zeon who welcomed him.
Zeon said, looking at Levin, who was shimmering purple.
“As expected, your grade has gone up. Congratulations.”
“Thank you, brother!”
Levin removed the ghost and regained his true identity.
He said, looking around.
“Where did the car we rode in go? “I can’t see it.”
“Something happened.”
“yes?”
“And now it doesn’t matter if you don’t have a car. “Because most magical beasts can’t harm you.”
“yes!”
Unless you have a special skill or are a magician of the same Specter class, you cannot hurt Levin’s body.
Although he may not be able to use the desert as his home like Zeon, there were no demonic beasts that could harm Levin, at least in the desert near Neo Seoul.
“Let’s go back to Neo Seoul.”
“Yes! bro.”
Levin willingly followed Zeon’s footsteps.
