Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert - Chapter 130
Sand Mage Of The Burnt Desert Chapter 130
Episode 130:
Ear Collector.
That was the man’s nickname among scavengers.
Scavengers never reveal information such as their real name or occupation.
This is because we know very well that life ends the moment information is leaked.
Scavengers active in Neo Seoul have different situations from scavengers active in the desert.
Normally, they live like normal people, completely hiding their desires.
It was an inevitable choice because there were not only them but also many awakened people in the city of Neo Seoul.
The moment it is revealed that he is a scavenger, his situation changes and he becomes prey to other awakened people.
Therefore, the scavengers, including the ear collector, lived as parasites in Neo Seoul, completely hiding their identities.
Scavengers who live in Neo Seoul while hiding their identities have created their own network.
It was the so-called black network.
Scavengers shared information and hideouts with each other through the black network.
The underground space where the ear collector is currently located was one of those hiding places.
Nest number 7.
It is the name for a hiding place.
This meant that there were at least six more hideouts like this one.
Nest number 7 was a very important hiding place.
Because of this place, I was able to hunt people in the slums with peace of mind.
No one could have imagined that a nest of scavengers would exist in Dongdaemun, a district of fanatics.
Even John, the ruler of Dongdaemun.
Therefore, scavengers, including ear collectors, used nest number 7 to great advantage.
Currently, about a dozen scavengers are resting in nest number 7.
The scavengers they met in this way exchanged information while completely hiding their identities.
The ear collector also discovered the intruders while he was resting in nest number 7 after finishing his human hunt.
Absolutely!
He thrust the electric shock baton into Xeon’s face.
“I will ask you one last question. “How did you get in here?”
“I opened the door and came in.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. You opened a door with an awareness-impairing spell and a special lock and came in? “Do you know who the idiot is?”
“It’s true, but you don’t believe it.”
Zeon clicked his tongue.
If it weren’t for Brielle, Zeon wouldn’t have been able to find the scavengers’ nest so easily.
So it was natural for them to not believe it.
“There are people who have to experience hell to come to their senses.”
The ear collector grinned and hit Xeon’s face with the electric shock baton.
Absolutely!
Blue flames flew out and Zeon’s body trembled.
“Hehe! pup. So, you should have said it gently.”
The ear collector laughed as he watched the Xeon vibrating violently.
He naturally thought that Brielle, who was also caught in the net, would cry with tears streaming down her face. But Brielle was just staring at the ear collector with her eyes wide open.
The ear collector muttered.
“what? “Is this girl an idiot?”
“You are the idiot. Do you think Zeon would be shocked by that?”
“what?”
Only then did the ear collector feel strange and looked at Zeon.
I don’t know since when, but Zeon was no longer shaking.
Zeon’s cold, sunken face was visible behind the flickering blue electric current.
The ear collector instinctively realized something was wrong.
“Fuck!”
Bye!
At that moment, the net that was tightening Zeon and Brielle tore like a piece of paper, and a hand wearing a gauntlet popped out.
Sigh!
“Tsk!”
Zeon’s hand grabbed the ear collector’s neck.
It happened before the ear collector could react. Xeon’s movements exceeded the ear collector’s reaction speed.
But the ear collector did not suffer easily either.
He threw away the high-voltage electric rod, which did not work, took a jungle sword from his waist, and stabbed Zeon in the abdomen.
Zeon slightly twisted his waist to avoid the great sword. And then he threw the ear collector’s body on the floor.
bang!
“Wow!”
The ear collector let out a short scream due to the tremendous impact felt on its back. It was such a shock that an ordinary person would have been instantly incapacitated.
However, the ear collector was a D-class martial arts awakened person.
He had a solid body and excellent athletic ability.
It was not weak enough to collapse from this level of impact.
The ear collector immediately got up and tried to fight back. But his body did not obey his will.
Before he knew it, Zeon was pressing his chest with his knee.
Tremendous pressure pressed down on the ear collector.
“Off!”
The ear collector’s eyes widened as if they were about to pop out.
It felt like my chest bone would break at any moment and my internal organs would be crushed.
No matter how much he used his dragons and moved his mana, his body did not move, as if it had been crushed by a huge rock.
Eventually, the ear collector gave up and screamed.
“What are you? Why is this…”
“Air shield!”
At that moment, Brielle used magic to block the sound from spreading outside.
The Ear Collector’s attempts to call out to other scavengers failed.
Zeon chuckled.
“It was a cute attempt.”
“This bastard…”
“I’ll take one of your ears in return.”
The ear collector’s eyes widened at Zeon’s words.
“Oh, no!”
Suddenly!
At that moment, with a sharp sound, the ear collector’s ear was cut off.
The ear collector screamed from the pain he felt in his ears.
“Kaaak!”
“If you’re not quiet, I’ll cut off the rest of your ears.”
“Fuck you! Why are you doing this to me? “We saw each other for the first time today.”
“Isn’t this the first time you’ve seen the owners of all the ears you’ve collected?”
“pup!”
“I guess I haven’t come to my senses yet.”
Zeon put his hand to the opposite ear of the ear collector.
“Fuck! I’ll tell you. “I’ll tell you anything.”
“First of all, all those inside are scavengers, right?”
“okay!”
“How many people are there?”
“There are eleven including me.”
“How many dens are there like this?”
“I don’t know!”
“Do you really have to cut off the other ear to speak?”
“I really don’t know. “All I know is that this is nest number 7.”
“Seventh? So there are at least six more nests like this?”
Zeon’s eyes lit up.
Because I never expected that there would be so many dens like this.
This meant that the number of scavengers was much greater and more organized than he thought.
The ear collector said apologetically.
“okay! “I know that too.”
“Where is the nest?”
“There are only two places I know of, including this one.”
“You’re lying again.”
“Fuck! It’s real. One in Neo Seoul and one in the slums. “The network only reports nests in active areas.”
“network? Is there a network of scavengers?”
“okay! Black Network. “We all go there and get information.”
“Who runs it?”
“I don’t know!”
“You’re using the network but you don’t know?”
“No one will know that. You just use it because it exists. How do you know who runs it? “I’m not interested.”
“great. “Then how do I connect to the network?”
“Code! “You need to get a biometric code to access it.”
“Biometric code?”
It was when Zeon tilted his head at an unfamiliar word.
Quaaaang!
Suddenly, fireballs flew out of the darkness and struck Brielle’s unfolded air shield.
A huge fire engulfed Zeon and Brielle.
The moment the air shield broke, Xeon took Brielle and retreated.
But the collector wasn’t given that opportunity.
“Aaaah!”
The ear collector’s body, which had been hit directly by the fire, burned brightly.
He suffered from extremely high fever and died.
Zeon looked at where the fireball came from.
Heavily armed men appeared from the darkness.
They were scavengers resting in nest number 7.
“The nickname ‘ear collector’ is a waste. “You’re talking like a tentacle like that.”
“pup! “Everyone is talking here and there.”
“This is why you shouldn’t believe in things that have no basis.”
The scavengers laughed and chattered as they looked at the burning corpse of the Ear Collector.
There was an alarm magic installed in the passage that Zeon and Brielle had not yet discovered.
The moment the two people broke in, an alarm went off and scavengers came belatedly.
Zeon said, scratching his head.
“This was a pretty important moment and you ruined it.”
“Hehe! How to get biometric code? “Even that bastard doesn’t know.”
“why?”
“Because the memory of the moment I received the biometric code has been erased. All of my memories are intact, including mine and the others, but only the memory of when I received the biometric code was completely erased. So, it’s useless. Hehehe!”
The lead scavenger smiled, showing his yellow teeth.
The other scavengers agreed.
“haha! Our world is not that shabby. “You kid!”
“Now that I think about it, a pretty kid came too.”
“I am the first.”
“Do not be ridiculous! You bastard. “I come first.”
The scavengers who saw Brielle fought among themselves and there was an uproar.
“Humans worse than dogs.”
Brielle made a disgusted expression.
It was Brielle who suffered after being captured by human hunters.
She hated these types of people more than anyone else.
“Everyone die!”
Brielle shouted and unleashed her magic.
Wedge!
A dozen Air Arrows flew towards the scavengers.
“What! “It’s a pretty cute attack.”
“It’s useless.”
The scavengers deployed their defensive skills to block her attack.
The clothes and armor they were wearing were all craft items or stolen from other awakened people.
Of course, the performance was excellent.
It was difficult to inflict damage with the attack magic of a young elf who had not yet matured.
The scavengers immediately counterattacked.
Kwakwakwa!
The weapons of those awakened to the martial arts world and the skills of those awakened to the magic world flew in, filling the passage.
“Mr. Lee!”
Brielle opened her eyes wide.
Her response to her enemies’ attacks was simple.
It was to hide behind Zeon.
Zeon waved his fist while making a bewildered expression. Then dozens of flaming arrows rained down towards the front.
He unleashed Fire Arrow with his fiery gauntlet.
Kwakwakwak!
Dozens of fire arrows and attack skills flying through the passageway collided and exploded.
“Ugh!”
“100 million!”
The scavengers screamed.
It was blown away by the explosion.
At that moment, Xeon moved.
Pot!
He kicked the floor and launched himself at the scavengers.
Zeon, who was immediately attacked by the scavengers, swung his fist.
His fist slammed into the scavengers.
Kwakagagak!
It felt like a storm was sweeping by.
The scavengers could not even react and were hit by Zeon’s fist.
Even armor was useless in the face of Zeon’s attack.
The shield shattered and the armor made of special material shattered like glass.
In front of the tsunami called Zeon, the scavengers were swept away without even being able to scream.
The scene that emerged a moment later was gruesome.
All of the scavengers were lying on the ground with their limbs deformed or severely injured.
“Fuck!”
“Off!”
The scavengers’ desperate screams spread through the passage.
Zeon said while making eye contact with the scavenger lying in front of him.
“I think we’re ready to talk to each other now, right?”
“Shibaal!”
Instead of answering, the Scavenger screamed.
Zeon nodded and said.
“I knew it would be like that.”
