Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert - Chapter 81

Sand Mage Of The Burnt Desert Chapter 81

Episode 81

: Zeon looked at Croker and the crocodiles rushing towards him with terrifying force.

Croker was a C-class martial arts awakened crocodile, and all of them were D-class and E-class.

It was an enormous amount of power that could clear out a decent portion of the slums in an instant. But it was of no use in front of Zeon.

A fire broke out right in front of Zeon.

A fire wall was opened with a fiery gauntlet.

Hellish flames fill the underground space.

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

The crocodiles screamed from the extremely high heat.

Because they have adapted to living underground in a humid environment for a long time, they are vulnerable to high temperatures.

The heat that ordinary people would consider simply hot felt like hellfire to them. Moreover, the fire wall that Zeon deployed was several times hotter than a normal flame.

The bodies of the crocodiles that were charging at the front caught fire and collapsed.

The crocodiles rolled around on the floor and screamed to try to put out the fire, but it was no use.

Once a fire was lit, it was not easily extinguished.

“You son of a bitch!”

Croker fired his unique skill, Stone Fist.

As the name suggests, it was a skill that made a fist as strong as a stone and threw it.

Although it was just a simple punch, its destructive power surpassed other skills of the same class.

bang!

His skills were exactly the same as Zeon’s.

But Crocker couldn’t be happier.

This is because Xeon deflected his skill with the Incandescent Gauntlet.

Suddenly, Zeon’s new form became blurred and appeared right in front of Croker.

He approached with sandy steps.

To Croker, who was unaware of that fact, it felt like he had unleashed skills like space movement and blink.

“you?”

bang!

At that moment, Zeon’s fist exploded into Crocker’s abdomen.

“Kaaak!”

Croker jumped back with a scream.

Croker, who hit the wall and vomited blood, struggled to get up.

His eyes as he looked at Zeon were full of anger.

I felt it last time too, but I was not Zeon’s opponent.

To himself and the crocodiles living underground, Zeon was nothing short of polar opposites.

Xeon could not be defeated using ordinary methods.

He wrote

“Fuck!” “Inject everyone with medicine.”

Crocker took out a syringe from his pocket.

It was a syringe filled with yellow liquid.

Without hesitation, he inserted the syringe into the heart and injected.

The crocodiles who saw this also inserted a syringe into the heart.

The yellow liquid in the syringe was one of the drugs they manufactured. What makes it different from other drugs is that it explodes all its potential in an instant.

“Kaaah!”

“Huh!”

Crockers and crocodiles let out strange breathing sounds and stretched their backs. Their size was much larger and their muscles stood out.

Zeon looked at them with an interested expression.

“I guess it’s some kind of stimulant.”

The world is broken, but humans are broken more seriously.

Numerous drugs that had serious effects on the human body were developed, and there were people everywhere who took such drugs without any hesitation.

One thing is certain: no matter what effect a drug has, it is accompanied by serious side effects after taking it.

If it was a drug that amplified human potential in a short period of time, like the stimulants they injected, the side effects were bound to be greater.

“I’m dead!”

“Kaaah!”

Crockers and crocodiles screamed and rushed at Zeon.

Shuwang!

Zeon’s hair fluttered from Croker’s punch.

The wind pressure hit Zeon before the fist. However, Zeon easily avoided his attack.

Then the crocodiles attacked Zeon from behind.

Their movements were closer to beasts than humans.

There was no reason in the red eyes. All I see is madness.

It became twice as fast as before and that much stronger.

bang!

The concrete hit by their fists exploded like a bomb.

Croker’s case was even worse.

Quaaa!

A red haze shimmered all over his body.

The drug brought out his potential to the limit and even made him use his Aura.

“Fuck! To die. “I’m dead!”

Croker stretched his muscles to their limit and unleashed all his strength.

Zeon looked at Crocker’s movements, body reactions, and even eye movements.

The frenzied attack by croakers and alligators lasted for almost ten minutes. But after exactly ten minutes, their movements noticeably slowed down.

“Is the limit about ten minutes?”

I don’t know the identity of the drug they injected, but it was clear that it could only produce maximum output for about ten minutes.

At this point, I’ve figured out everything I can from them.

At that moment, the sand scattered on the floor rose up, writhing like a snake.

Dozens of sand snakes raised their heads stiffly and glared at the croakers and alligators.

It was Viper, one of Xeon’s skills.

Croker’s eyes widened at a sight he had never seen before.

Even when he lost his senses, he sensed danger.

“What?”

Zeon snapped his fingers instead of answering.

Wedge!

At that moment, the sand snakes flew towards the croakers and crocodiles like arrows.

Viper instantly made a hole in the bodies of Croker and the crocodiles.

Even if his potential exploded thanks to the drug, he couldn’t survive even with a huge hole in the middle of his torso.

The crocodiles’ bodies collapsed like sand castles.

At least Croker was able to stand patiently, but he was reaching his limit.

Croker’s eyes returned to normal.

“You… what are you? “What about this skill…”

I’ve met many awakened people so far, but this was my first time seeing someone who wields sand.

“Then what about fire magic? “Is this really a duel?”

Zeon smiled and held up the fiery gauntlet.

“It’s just an item.”

“item?”

Crocker’s eyes wavered.

I never dreamed that such a powerful flame-type ability would simply be an item.

“You sneaky bastard. “You were hiding your true abilities like that.”

“That’s the only way we can survive in this world.”

“Shit! I was completely fooled. “I didn’t mean to touch your things in the first place.”

With those words, Crocker sat down.

My breath stopped.

Zeon looked at Croker with an indifferent expression and then walked away.

The place he headed was a secret passage behind Croker.

I saw Goran and Ava go in there.

Everything was Goran’s big picture.

Instead, Croker’s plan to upset Goran and Zeon was taken advantage of.

It was a cruel act befitting the ruler of Sinchon.

Zeon was curious as to what Goran was aiming for in making him and Croker suffer.

There’s probably a reason there.

Zeon entered the secret passageway that Goran entered.

The passage was narrow and dark, and there was not a single light. But there was no problem with Xeon.

He had eyes that could see through deep darkness.

Zeon walked down the stairs, following the traces of Goran and Ava.

After descending for a while, we arrived at a very large underground space.

There were numerous beds placed in a space that seemed to be over a hundred meters wide. Hundreds of people with complexions as pale as corpses were lying on the beds.

A thin tube was inserted into their forearm, and red blood was flowing through the tube.

The blood that flowed out was collecting in a large tank in the center. And Goran and Ava were standing in front of the tank.

They were staring at the tank, not even knowing that Zeon had arrived.

Xeon quietly approached the tank.

“Huh?”

Ava, who belatedly noticed Zeon’s approach, looked embarrassed. However, Goran was so focused on the tank that he did not notice Zeon’s presence.

Zeon naturally looked where Goran was focused.

There was a girl sitting in front of the tank.

She was a girl with messy blonde hair, deep dark circles under her eyes, and a somewhat cynical look.

The girl was wearing a wide black robe and a cone hat that looked like something witches would have worn long ago.

However, there were chains tied around the girl’s ankles. It seemed like a restraint to prevent escape.

Goran said while looking at the girl.

“It was you. “You were making drugs supplied by crocodiles.”

“Shut up! human.”

“human?”

“You’d better look away before I tear your eyes out. “How dare a human look at a noble elf like that?”

“You weren’t human. Elf? “It seems like that.”

I couldn’t recognize him because his ears were covered by the cone hat. But judging from her tone, it was clear she was an elf.

Goran laughed.

“Hehe! That’s funny. “I wondered what kind of engineer would make such good drugs, but I never thought it would be an elf.”

“You bastards who are worse than demonic beasts! Do you think I’ll stay still when I’m released? I’m going to kill them all. “I will kill every single human cub left behind.”

The girl glared directly at Goran and spat out harsh words.

People often have the image of elves as being noble or quiet, but that wasn’t the case for the girl.

The elf girl’s name is Brielle.

She originally lived outside Neo Seoul.

Disaster came suddenly one day.

He encountered human awakenings who were passing by nearby.

She tried her best, but was ultimately overcome by humans.

From then on, her miserable life began.

After being sold to humans several times, they ended up in the Neo Seoul slums, far away from where they originally lived.

Crocker discovered her true talent.

It was his talent for alchemy.

As an elf born with senses, she had excellent alchemy talent.

Crocker came up with a way to utilize Brielle’s talent.

The goal was to develop a new drug.

As Crocker thought, Brielle was excellent at manufacturing drugs.

She created several new drugs that had never existed before. Thanks to this, Croker was able to become an emerging powerhouse in the drug market.

All of the drugs provided to Goran’s organization were made by Brielle.

All of the drugs Brielle makes use human blood as a medium.

Because the drug made by Brielle was made from blood, the most important substance in the human body, it had far fewer side effects than other drugs.

The problem was Brielle.

A pure elf who loves nature is making drugs that are harmful to all living things.

In her heart, the anger and resentment toward humans grew bigger day by day.

In the end, she came to hate and resent everything in the world.

Goran said to Brielle.

“You bitch will work for me from now on. “I am now your master.”

“okay! I’ll make it for you. Croker and you are all the same bastards. “Well, it doesn’t matter what kind of bastard you make drugs for, it’s all the same.”

“Hehe! It’s a good mindset. “That way you can live longer.”

It was when Goran smiled with satisfaction.

“An elf drug manufacturer. “It’s a really fun neighborhood.”

Goran’s blood ran cold at the sound of Zeon’s voice coming from behind him.

When I looked back, I saw Zeon looking at Brielle with an interested expression.

Goran said, glaring at Zeon.

“what? “What about Crocker?”

“You can see it when you go outside. ah! Even if you ask, I won’t be able to answer. “Because he died.”

“You’ve already sorted it out?”

“It wasn’t that difficult.”

“Instead of fighting like this, just come under me. “If you and I join hands, we will be able to take control of the slums in no time.”

“I refuse. “It’s not right for me to work under someone else.”

“You really want to see the end.”

Goran’s expression hardened horribly.

His original plan was to embarrass Zeon and Crocker and then secretly steal Brielle, a drug manufacturer.

After that, we cleaned up the slums again and dealt with Zeon, and everything was perfect. However, all plans went awry as Zeon dealt with Crocker and the crocodiles faster than expected.

Zeon said while looking at Brielle.

“I don’t particularly have feelings for elves, but this is a bit harsh. “Anyway, humans are the most dangerous.”

“You talk like it’s not really you. “We are all hypocrites…”

Brielle’s harsh words poured out all at once. But Zeon’s expression didn’t change at all.

“hey! Elf kid. “If you want to get out of here, you’d better keep your mouth shut. But out of these two, I’m the only one who has a chance of releasing you.”

At that moment, Brielle closed her mouth without realizing it.

Zeon’s eyes turned to Goran.

“Let’s run away somewhere else.”
