Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert - Chapter 135
Sand Mage Of The Burnt Desert Chapter 135
Episode 135
Mandy returned with a serious expression after receiving information that the Scavenger was connected to this area.
It was an incident related to the district, not anywhere else.
Even though Mandy was a supervisor directly under City Hall, she did not dare to touch the district.
This area was a place with particularly aggressive tendencies and was so powerful that it was not something a single supervisor could handle.
I had to report to my superiors and wait for their decision.
With Mandy gone, there was a moment of peace.
Brielle went back to her room to study alchemy, and Zeon sat on the sofa in the living room.
I could see the city hall beyond the red neon sign.
Even though it was a dark night, the city hall was shining brightly like a lighthouse.
City Hall was a symbol of Neo Seoul.
For everyone living in Neo Seoul and the slums, City Hall was a milestone and a lifelong goal.
If the city hall collapses, the hopes of people living in Neo Seoul will also collapse. Therefore, it must continue to exist in the future.
“after!”
Zeon sighed and shook his head.
The more I thought about it, the more complicated my feelings became.
It was then.
“brother!”
Levin burst open the door and came in.
Zeon stood up and said.
“Are you here?”
“You were at home? “What about Brielle?”
“He’s in his room.”
“I see.”
Levin nodded and approached Xeon.
Zeon’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.
This is because red stains were seen on Levin’s clothes.
Blood was evident.
Levin, feeling Zeon’s gaze, smiled and said.
“It’s not my blood.”
“Did you fight?”
“Scavengers.”
“It’s spreading like a virus.”
Levin also shook his head and answered as if he was fed up.
“I don’t know where so many scavengers are hiding. “It’s so disgusting that it sticks out so intently, it’s killing me.”
Scavengers never target high-ranking awakened people.
It was simple to tell whether they were high-level awakened people or not.
It was the state of clothing and armament.
The higher the awakened person, the more heavily armed he or she is with better weapons and items.
Those people were never touched.
The scavengers strictly targeted only the weak.
The target was ordinary people or awakened people who were not particularly respected.
Among them, the ones that the scavengers were persistently targeting were low-level awakened people.
Their target was the appropriate level of weapons, armor, and other items worn by low-level awakened people.
Levin also appeared to be an ordinary low-level awakened person.
Because of that, it became a target for scavengers.
Of course, all of the scavengers who fearlessly rushed forward died at Levin’s hands.
Levin grumbled.
“The scavengers lost their fear because of the material leaking from the White Bear caravan. “Their targets, E-class and F-class awakened people, are on high alert.”
“I guess so.”
Zeon nodded.
The slums were in great chaos because of the scavengers.
Eaton, the ruler of Sinchon, tried to eradicate the scavengers, but it was not enough.
It was the moment when Zeon was about to open his mouth.
Tooung!
Suddenly, a strong wave was felt from the desert.
Zeon looked at the desert as a strong feeling touched his heart.
“What’s wrong? brother!”
Levin looked at Zeon with a puzzled expression.
Unlike Zeon, he felt nothing.
The powerful wave disappeared in an instant like a mirage.
The wavelength was so secret that it could never be felt unless it was an awakened person who had reached the same level as Xeon.
Even though Levin had now risen to C-level and his senses had become more sensitive, he could not detect it at all.
‘what?’
The place where the waves were felt was the White Bear Caravan’s fortress.
Zeon put on a robe.
“I guess it won’t work.”
“Are you going out?”
“I’m going to the goblin market.”
“Then I’ll go with you.”
“you also?”
“It’s better to go together than alone.”
“OK.”
The two went out together. However, the atmosphere in the slums was unusual.
Most of the people walking on the streets stood at attention and an atmosphere of caution prevailed.
Although people in the slums basically ostracize others, they are not wary of others to this extent.
The spread of scavengers changed the atmosphere of the slums in many ways.
Zeon and Levin passed through the slums and entered the goblin market.
The atmosphere of the goblin market was no different from that of a slum.
Because there had been an explosion not long ago, the atmosphere was even scarier than outside.
Thorough checks and searches were carried out at the entrance, and anyone whose identity was not certain was prohibited from entering.
Naturally, the number of people visiting the goblin market was bound to decrease. Still, the merchants did not complain.
Jeon went straight to Yoo Se-hee’s office.
“Come on! what’s the matter?”
Yoo Se-hee, who had been looking at something for a while, greeted Zeon.
“I just came to see what the atmosphere of the Goblin Market was like.”
“As you can see, it’s a mess.”
“Yes.”
“You’ve arrived just in time. “Would you like to see this?”
Yoo Se-hee waved the paper he was holding in his hand.
“What is it?”
“Read it yourself.”
Jeon took the paper from Yoo Se-hee and read it.
“This is…”
“Yes! It’s an invitation. “Invitation from White Bear Caravan.”
“It says there will be an auction.”
“They are bold guys. “I sent out dozens of invitations like this.”
Yoo Se-hee made a bewildered expression.
Neo Seoul is in chaos just because of the products that have been released so far, so I don’t know how they are sending out invitations so openly to sell even more amazing products.
“Who received the invitation?”
“It’s obvious. “I sprayed it on everyone in Neo Seoul who said they were using their power.”
“It looks like they decided to make the game bigger.”
“The problem is that what they are trying to do may shake Neo Seoul to its core.”
For Yoo Se-hee, the top priority was the goblin market.
Although it had been stabilized for decades, the order of the slums and goblin markets was being shaken by caravans from outside.
She wasn’t happy about the current situation.
“You said you were holding an auction, right?”
“huh!”
“Can I go with you?”
“Do you want to participate too?”
“yes!”
“Hmm!”
Yoo Se-hee stared at Jeon’s face for a moment.
Levin, who was standing next to her, felt intimidated by her persistent gaze.
“good! “Well, you are qualified to participate.”
Yoo Se-hee willingly gave permission.
“thank you.”
“it’s okay. “If you put your mind to it, you can get an invitation like this in no time.”
“Still, I’m thankful for what I’m thankful for.”
If it weren’t for Yoo Se-hee, it would have been quite a hassle.
Levin, who was nearby at that time and was seeing an opportunity, said.
“Can I get some potion?”
“portion?”
“yes!”
“That’s kind of precious. “What do you need?”
Yoo Se-hee frowned.
Potions were basically expensive.
It wasn’t a problem as long as it was expensive, but it was also rare.
This is because the ingredients for the potion were very expensive and there were very few alchemists who could make it.
“It’s a potion that recently started being distributed.”
“Ah, detox potion.”
Suddenly, Yoo Se-hee burst into laughter.
The detox potion was something that had recently begun to be released.
After rigorous verification, only a small number were released, but they were popular.
Among the demonic beasts, there were quite a few who harbored extreme venom. To deal with such a magical beast, a detox potion was absolutely necessary.
However, because the quantity distributed was so small, it was difficult to obtain awakened people without connections like Levin.
Existing detox potions were few in number and had little effect. Still, I needed it, so I cried and bought it with the mindset of eating mustard.
However, the detox potion that recently began to be distributed in the goblin market was different.
Although it was expensive, its efficacy was far superior to other potions.
It seemed to be about three times as effective, with a little bit of lying added.
Due to this situation, the recently awakened people who were about to conquer the dungeon were scrambling to obtain a detox potion.
Levin spoke cautiously.
“Even when I tried to buy it at the store, it was so popular that it wasn’t sold out.”
“It’s because it’s still an early work, so only small quantities are made. Are you going to use it?”
“I’m going to save it for emergencies.”
“It’s a good attitude.”
Yoo Se-hee nodded and thought of Brielle.
‘I guess that cheeky little boy hasn’t said anything yet. Then I have to keep the secret too.’
The creator of the detox potion was Brielle.
When Yoo Se-hee made and tested the detox potion according to the recipe she gave, she was extremely shocked.
This is because existing potions could not keep up in terms of performance.
It was hard to believe that a young kid could create such an incredible potion.
As promised, Yoo Se-hee completely hid the fact that Brielle was the creator of the detox potion.
There is no reason to allow the goose that lays the golden eggs to be exposed to the outside world.
The secret was kept so thoroughly hidden that even Levin, who lived with her, did not know that the creator of the detox potion was Brielle.
Yoo Se-hee took out a detox potion from a drawer and threw it away.
“It’s precious, so keep it well.”
“oh! thank you As for the money….”
“I’m giving it to you as a gift, so just take it.”
“But…”
“If you want to show some affection, you can at least buy some snacks for the little boy.”
“yes?”
“I mean Brielle.”
“So why are you giving Brielle a snack?”
“If you want it, just buy it. “Don’t ask or argue.”
“yes!”
Levin, who did not know the meaning, answered with a dumbfounded expression.
When I saw that, I couldn’t help but laugh.
“Foot!”
＊＊＊
“Ugh!”
A scavenger dressed in shabby clothes was making a sound out of breath.
In fact, he was on the verge of dying.
“Save me…”
“That’s funny!”
The person who was looking down at the scavenger snorted.
It was a woman wearing a fedora and a barbarian coat.
Her name is Borin Strabach.
He was the leader of the Northern Area Green Leaves Special Task Force.
The scavenger dying in front of her was very unlucky. This is because Borin, the leader of the Blue Leaf Special Task Force, was targeted for plunder.
He never dreamed that the person he attacked was the leader of the Green Leaf Special Forces.
The price was truly harsh.
It was his death.
I wasn’t dead yet, but death was a foregone conclusion.
Because no one can live with their internal organs sticking out of their abdomen.
That was the state of the scavenger right now.
Borin muttered coldly.
“If you want to live even after attacking a well-traveled elf, you’re a thief.”
“I didn’t know you were an elf. “Please save me!”
“late.”
“Fuck elf. “Go to hell.”
Eventually, the scavenger gave up on living and cursed.
Those were the Scavenger’s last words.
Borin sighed and looked at the Scavenger’s body.
At that moment, her eyes lit up.
This is because the object sticking out of the scavenger’s arms caught my eye.
“This?”
She picked up the item and looked like she couldn’t believe it.
What was in her hand was a necklace.
A wooden plaque with an unknown meaning was hanging on a necklace made of leather string.
A familiar scent was coming from a wooden plaque that was shaped exactly like a coin.
It was a smell that only elves could smell and that humans could never distinguish.
It was the scent of cloud trees. And cloud trees grow only in Kurayan.
“A necklace made of cloud wood. How could this item be in human hands…”
As far as she knew, the only person in Neo Seoul who had this necklace was the elf queen, Serian Oleana.
Objects that did not exist in Neo Seoul suddenly appeared.
Even in human hands.
Borin looked toward the desert.
“Could it have come from the caravan?”
