Sand Mage Of The Burnt Desert Chapter 213
Episode 213
“Chwiit! “He is human.”
“Kill it.”
For ordinary orcs, cool-headed reason does not exist.
When it spots an enemy, it attacks.
If you win, you get eaten, and if you lose, you get eaten.
It was the orc’s habit to shut up and attack an enemy when they saw one.
As soon as the Orc scouts saw the buggy carrying the human awakeners, they became excited and attacked.
Thump thump thump!
The orcs charged, kicking up sand dust.
The sight of hundreds of men much larger than humans charging at us was so daunting that it made us wet ourselves.
“Ready for battle!”
“Shit!”
The awakened people each grabbed their weapons and prepared for battle.
The orcs ran at such a frightening speed that their enormous size was put to shame.
They arrived in front of the awakened people in an instant.
bang!
Quang!
With heavy drinking, the orcs and the awakened clashed.
Jang Yong-beom’s party also participated in the battle without hesitation.
Suddenly!
“Kkeet!”
An orc was cut in two by Jang Yong-beom’s claymore.
Even though he killed the orc in one go, Jang Yong-beom’s expression was not bright.
“These guys are pretty tough. “Everyone be careful.”
“okay!”
“Don’t worry, Captain.”
Aiden Giselle responded as they each fought against the orcs.
Aiden dismantled the orcs using the ultra-vibration skill, and Giselle grabbed the orcs’ ankles with freezing magic.
Finally, the Mountain held his palms against the Orc and engaged in a power struggle.
“Keuuuuu! “Kill monsters.”
As Mountain used the dragon, veins popped out on his forehead and forearms.
Orc also fought back against Mountain with pure strength.
“Chwiit! “It kills humans.”
“I win.”
That’s it!
Surprisingly, the winner of the battle of strength was Mountain.
Humans overwhelm the demonic orcs with their power.
The orc’s back slowly bent backwards.
An expression of disbelief appeared on the orc’s face.
“Chuck! That’s a lie. There’s no way I could lose by force…”
Pow!
The orc’s back, which instantly fell backwards, was completely broken with a cracking sound.
The Mountain lifted up the orc’s body, which was shaking with a broken back, and let out a roar.
“Wow!”
It was a sight that someone who didn’t know could mistake the mountain for an orc.
“That ignorant bastard!”
“Crazy monster.”
It was so outrageous that even fellow party members Aiden and Giselle shook their heads.
The Mountain moved in search of its next victim.
It was a party dispatched by Neo Seoul.
It was made up of strong awakened people.
Their power was by no means inferior to that of the Orc troops.
As time passed, the Awakened overwhelmed the Orcs.
“Chwiit!”
“Aaaah!”
The orcs screamed and fell.
Naturally, there were deaths among human awakeners as well. But in the end, it was the human awakeners who won.
“Huh! “Huh!”
“I won.”
The awakened people took a deep breath and rejoiced in their victory. However, Jang Yong-beom, who led the victory, did not look happy at all.
“All the buggies were broken.”
The buggy, which was moving in a precarious manner, was completely destroyed by the orcs’ attack.
From now on, I had to walk on my own two legs.
“Shit!”
“We have to inform Neo Seoul of the appearance of these monsters, but when are we going to walk there?”
“You’ll dry out and die before you even get to Neo Seoul.”
The surviving awakeners sat down with expressions of despair.
Giselle Aiden Mountain gathered next to Jang Yong-beom.
Even though they killed more orcs than anyone else, they didn’t look that tired.
Aiden asked Yongbeom Jang.
“What are you going to do now?”
“Neo, I have to go back to Seoul.”
“Is your car broken too?”
“Your legs are still fine. “You can just walk.”
“Others won’t last.”
“Why bother worrying about other guys? “Tell them to survive on their own.”
“I didn’t say that because I was particularly worried.”
Aiden chuckled.
We came here together at the request of Neo Seoul, but I didn’t really think of them as colleagues.
What Aiden cared about was Jang Yong-beom and Giselle Mountain, and he didn’t care what happened to other people.
It was the same for Giselle and Mountain.
In this cold world, only they could call each other family.
Yongbeom Jang gave an order.
“Take everything useful from the broken car. “Because it will help us survive.”
“yes!”
Aiden and Giselle immediately searched the car and packed up their belongings.
Mountain carried all the items he had packed and Jang Yong-beom’s party left.
When the other awakened people came to their senses, there were no useful items left for survival.
“Holy shit! “You took everything, right?”
“Quickly follow those bastards.”
The awakened people quickly followed Jang Yong-beom’s party.
***
The sun was setting.
As the western sky turned red, Zeon and his group settled down at the foot of the sand dune.
Zeon pulled out a black lump from subspace. It was the well-dried dung of a demonic beast. It had the advantage of catching fire easily due to its high fat content.
Zeon lit the demon’s dung on fire and created a bonfire.
Meanwhile, Levin took out food from his subspace backpack and distributed it to the group.
“Today, I brought you special food from Mr. Clexi’s store.”
“Is there still this left?”
Elroy was surprised.
Time does not pass in subspace.
In theory, food can be stored forever without spoiling.
However, because the volume of subspace is not infinite, there is a limit to the amount that can be stored.
Levin bought a lot of food from the goblin market and Old Man Clexi’s store and stored it in his subspace backpack.
“There is still a lot left. “I haven’t had a chance to bring it up until now.”
“I’m glad. “Even so, I was tired of demonic beast meat.”
Elroy savored his appetite and took the food from Levin.
It was a steak made from cultured calf meat.
Hot steam was rising from the steak.
“It’s crazy.”
Brielle opened her eyes wide and loved it.
Levin handed Zeon a steak as well.
“This is your brother’s.”
“thanks.”
“It’s all thanks to Brielle making the subspace backpack.”
Levin patted his subspace backpack and laughed.
The four people smiled and started eating.
Brielle muttered as she cut the steak.
“Eating like this makes me feel like I’m having a picnic.”
“Even a picnic in hell is a picnic.”
Eloi struck the candle, and then the two elves started fighting.
Since it was an everyday occurrence, Xeon and Levin didn’t pay any attention.
Even though they argue like that, they don’t cross the line.
Rather, we were getting closer by arguing like that.
“hmm! “It’s delicious as expected.”
“It was made by Old Man Clexi himself.”
“I suddenly want to see you.”
“me too. “It may be a bit harsh, but cooking skills are everything.”
“I don’t know if you’re okay.”
“I’m sure you’ll be fine. “Who would dare touch him in the slums?”
“Well…”
Zeon shook his head.
Yoo Se-hee, the head of the Goblin Market’s union, is his maternal granddaughter, and he himself is the head of an intelligence group called Eyes of Argos.
Even in the slums, he had a power second to none. The picture of him being harmed by someone else did not come to mind.
In the sky where the sun had fallen, countless stars were filling the space.
The four people put their cleaned plates away in subspace and then looked up at the night sky.
“I can see the stars well today.”
“I know! It’s a rare day. “It always looks hazy because of the sand.”
“Enjoy it while you can. “I don’t know when I’ll see you again.”
After eating delicious food, all four of us were able to enjoy the stars in the night sky with open hearts. But their peace did not last long.
“There’s a light over there.”
“Fuck! “Look who’s there.”
“Maybe it’s a scavenger. Everyone, stay alert.”
People’s voices were heard from afar.
In an instant, the smiles disappeared from the four people’s faces.
“It’s a person.”
“what?”
They quickly got up from their seats and prepared for battle.
What are the odds of meeting someone in this vast desert? It had to be considered almost impossible unless someone approached it with a purpose.
At that time, a group of people appeared from beyond the sand dunes.
They were the awakened people who survived the orc attack.
Jang Yong-beom’s party was at the forefront.
Yongbeom Jang said while looking at Zeon and the others.
“There really was someone there.”
“A human being who starts a fire in the desert without fear. “Are you not afraid of the demonic beast?”
Aiden clicked his tongue as he looked at the bonfire.
The desert night was the time of the devil.
The demonic beasts that had been sleeping during the day to avoid the hot sunlight became active in earnest. I don’t understand why Zeon and his group started a fire without fear at such a time.
Zeon stepped forward and said.
“That’s it.”
“what?”
“This is a position we have occupied. “Do not come any closer than this.”
“This is ridiculous. “Is there a separate place for you in the desert?”
Jang Yong-beom’s voice became cold and an eerie chill came over Zeon and the others.
But Zeon answered without changing his expression.
“Don’t you know that there is no one in the desert you can trust? “How do we know it’s a scavenger?”
“That makes sense. good! Please reveal our identities. We are awakened people dispatched from Neo Seoul. “I went out to check on trends in the desert and was attacked by pig-like beasts and lost my car.”
“You mean you came from Neo Seoul?”
“Yes. My name is Yongbeom Jang. Neo is an awakened person officially registered at Seoul City Hall. The same goes for these. “They are all officially registered awakened people.”
“Jang Yongbeom?”
Lee Chae appeared in Zeon’s eyes.
Yongbeom Jang was the person who saved Zeon when he was in danger of being killed by a sandworm on the way to the magic stone mine.
Jeon couldn’t hide his surprised expression because he didn’t expect to meet Jang Yong-beom’s party in the middle of the desert.
Zeon asked calmly, hiding his agitation.
“Did you say you were attacked by a magical beast that resembled a pig?”
“Yes. “The vehicle they were riding in was destroyed.”
“It looks like we met an orc troop.”
“I guess that demon beast’s name is Orc.”
“you’re right. “Please come this way.”
Zeon said, lowering his guard.
To Jang Yong-beom, Jeon was just a small relationship that passed by, but to Jeon, Jang Yong-beom was a lifesaver.
A long time had passed since then, but the favor still had to be repaid.
Yongbeom Jang looked at Jeon intently.
It’s strange that Zeon suddenly changed his attitude.
“Do you know me by any chance?”
“I know.”
“how?”
“I went with you a long time ago. “You probably won’t remember that one.”
“is it? Anyway, I’m glad you know me. “Because you don’t have to go through any troublesome procedures.”
If Zeon refused until the end, he tried to subdue him by force.
Yongbeom Jang said while looking at the bonfire.
“But are you fearless? Is this reckless? “If you light a bonfire, demons will come.”
“There are no demons around here.”
“How do you know that?”
“I already checked. You can stay with peace of mind.”
“Is that so? I’m glad.”
Jang Yong-beom breathed a sigh of relief.
Although I didn’t pay a ticket, I was very stressed as I had to carry around a bunch of cumbersome awakened people.
It was both pathetic and burdensome to see that all those who were known as awakened people were only looking at themselves.
As Jang Yong-beom sat in front of the bonfire, other awakened people also let their guard down and approached.
