Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 470

#470. you are thorough

* * *

About 32 years ago.

A meteor shower pours down.

After the whole sky is covered with starlight.

Some strange changes have taken place in the world.

From caves in the mountains, abandoned lungs to historic cultural heritage, elevators, and even empty space.

A place covered with a film of light appeared everywhere.

Many were suspicious of the place and wary.

But also, not a few have set foot there either actively or by mistake.

Through them, people learned several things.

One is that the space is distorted in a place covered by a vast screen, so that it becomes infinitely wider and divided into different floors.

The other is that there are monsters in it.

And the last one is, of course, if you catch monsters there, you can get all kinds of rewards such as items and rare metals.

According to his achievements, he could sign a contract with the Constellation and acquire superhuman powers called skills.

The people who learned of this became enthusiastic and flocked to the wilderness.

People called the superhumans born in this way players, and the place covered in vastness became precious like a treasure.

That’s a dungeon.

The player’s cradle.

Ending the Age of Heroes.

It was a symbol of the Iron Age itself.

Of course, more has been revealed about dungeons by countless players over the past few decades.

Some monsters come out.

what is that strategy?

And where and what items or resources you can get your hands on.

However, there were still many unknowns, such as why and how the dungeons were created and where monsters and items came from.

“It’s also suspicious.”

So it was.

That’s why Limon couldn’t help but frown.

[Why did the dungeon become the place where Indy Jones left a legacy?]

“It’s too coincidental to be a coincidence.”

After checking the remains of Indy Jones.

Limon and Charlotte returned to their lodgings to sort things out.

It was so unexpected that the remains of Indy Jones, which had been buried underground for decades, became a dungeon.

[Do you think the Liberation Brigade played a trick?]

“Because they secretly have a lot of talent.”

[No matter how hard it is, I think it’s a very absurd assumption that a dungeon can be built.]

Yuna-kyung muttered nervously.

In this Iron Age, each dungeon is a precious treasure trove.

The more diverse dungeons a country has, the greater the possibility of becoming a high-level player and the richer the items and resources you can obtain.

It is no exaggeration to say that the number of dungeons is the national strength.

But what if you could artificially create a dungeon?

It was an ability that all guilds and countries in the world coveted, enough to let their hands come out of their necks.

“Actually, it doesn’t matter if it’s a coincidence or not. The thing is, I can’t go there.”

[Because the sword master can’t enter the dungeon.]

“To be precise, it’s not like you can’t enter the dungeon…” [

Don’t think about it!]

“I just said it.”

It’s like you’re telling me not to make a big deal of it.

Yuna-kyung said in a panic.

Limon reluctantly agreed.

Unlike the others, he couldn’t enter the dungeon even if he wanted to because the entire entrance disappeared as soon as he approached.

Just like the dungeon denied the very existence of him.

That was also the biggest reason why sword masters were ignored in this era.

“How are you?”

But Limon is the only one in trouble.

Charlotte said in a languid manner as if there was nothing wrong with it.

“If the remnants of the Liberation Brigade are there, you can just watch while I take care of them.”

“I’m saying it because it’s going to be hard to watch.”

Limon frowned.

I had intended to leave it to her from the beginning.

However, watching from the side of the companion and letting Charlotte enter the dungeon alone were different cases.

“It would be difficult for even the boss to find the remnants of the Liberation Brigade alone there, but what are you going to do?”

The biggest problem is that they cannot find the Liberation Brigade at all.

Of course there are up to 100 floors.

Searching for the Liberation Brigade while breaking through a vast dungeon with numerous difficulties on each floor alone was like finding a needle in the sand.

Considering the sheriff’s testimony that they searched the place for days and found no one else.

At Limon’s point, Charlotte snorted.

“Nothing to worry about. I have already finished the preparations.”

“Preparation…”

Limon hesitated.

Then he narrowed his eyes and looked at Charlotte.

“Is this why you thought it was strange that you came back without entering the dungeon straight away?”

“There’s no way you didn’t know that I was what you could think of.”

“You are thoroughly prepared for that.”

“Even if I compliment him, the only thing I can give you is jewels.”

“…But what about giving real jewels?”

It’s because there is no cash.

When Limon is shocked by Charlotte’s behavior of giving away all the jewelry she was wearing.

Yuna-kyung also tilted her head.

[Chief over there? What are you ready for?]

“Look out the window.”

[yes? Suddenly, why is it outside the window…?]

Immediately after looking out the window as he was told to do so while being confused.

Yuna-kyung widened her eyes.

[…is that something?]

“What is that?”

A blonde cowgirl appeared in the empty lot in front of the inn.

Dozens of cowboys lined up behind her in line with Oh.

And even now, feeling the presence of easily exceeding the hundredth unit, which is increasing one by one.

Limon laughed.

“These are the chasers who will help hunt for our boss.”

* * *

The reason Limon and Charlotte came alone in the first place was because there were only two tickets for the transcontinental train.

In North America, where people have to risk their lives every time they pass through the wilderness, the transcontinental train is a means of transportation that everyone has no choice but to use.

Because there was only one VIP room that I could use right away without making a reservation.

And the transcontinental train had a long interval between trains.

It would take at least a few days for Elise and the rest of the Golden Dragon to arrive in Rushmore City.

Limon thought involuntarily.

So it was.

This is why Limon made a puzzled expression when he heard the reason they were able to come all the way here in one day.

“You said you came all the way here on an armored train?”

“yes.”

“…Rushmore City is supposed to be a place where armored trains don’t operate, right?”

“So I chartered a train to EK.”

“It’s really like the Golden Dragon clan…”

How can everyone from the princess to her aides be the same?

Limon sighed at the absurdity of starting with the mindset that money was everything and actually solving everything with it.

Of course, that wasn’t something that could only be done with money.

There was a reason why the only long-distance transportation in Rushmore City was the transcontinental train.

“I’m asking to confirm, how many times have you been attacked?”

“It’s number 24.”

“I managed to keep the train from blowing up.”

“Unfortunately, it eventually exploded on the 21st, and I turned the engine with telekinesis and dragged it.”

“Oh, yes.”

Should we admire the durability of the armored train that withstood 20 attacks by the fallen spirits without being blessed by the spirits?

Should I get tired of the tenacity of repelling all the attacks and steadfastly pulling the train all the way here?

Rarely do I worry for a while.

In the end, Limon decided to lighten the mood with a light joke.

“Still, I’m glad only one train exploded.”

“I didn’t say one.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“A total of 10 armored trains were chartered, bringing all remaining armed forces, but only one arrived after the other trains fell out.”

“….”

The other trains are in serious condition, so it just takes time to pull them.

Other armed forces will arrive in a few days.

Seeing Alice talking seriously, Limon fell silent and Yuna-kyung broke into a cold sweat.

[Team leader, rich sister’s family are all like this?]

“…don’t ask me.”

I don’t know why the Golden Dragon clan didn’t write down the word impossible in their dictionary.

When Limon sighs.

Charlotte said arrogantly.

“How are you, Swordsman? Do you still think I will miss the bugs of the Liberation Brigade?”

“I have to admit I underestimated the boss.”

“Unexpectedly, you readily admit it.”

“Because the truth is the truth.”

Even if I endured for nothing, it would only make me miserable.

When Charlotte, looking at him talking nonchalantly, puts on a sad expression.

Limon said suddenly.

“It’s hard to say instead of an apology, but come on. take this.”

[… Huh?]

And Yuna-kyung made an expression like a young pigeon that had fallen from its nest.

It was because Limon was the one who picked it up from above his head and offered it to Charlotte.

“Why are you giving this stupid bird?”

“He’s a little silly, but he’s the type to know about dungeons.”

“Do you mean to use hunting hawks instead of hunting dogs?”

“Well, it’s not good enough to be a hunting hawk, but it’s better than nothing.”

Limon laughed.

It’s like this now, but Yuna-kyung was also a high-level player who broke through to the 70th floor during her lifetime.

It was enough to serve as a guide for the masters of the Seven Dragons, who were unfamiliar with the dungeon.

“Hmm, since you’ve recommended it that much, I won’t take it for now.”

[Hey, boss? rich sister? Shouldn’t you at least check the person’s intention to entrust the job?]

“You’re not a human, you’re a bird.”

[Birds have rights too!]

“What kind of spirit beast are you talking about?”

Was it because he was resentful of being treated like a junk navigation?

Limon said calmly to Yuna-gyeong, who argued with a rough expression.

“If you can afford to eat, sleep, and pay for your living, consider recognizing that right.”

[…Thinking about it, I think I can guide you through dungeons.]

Is it human dignity?

Living expenses that sound like billions?

In front of the two options, Yuna-kyung humbly decided to serve Charlotte.

Dignity is meaningful only when you live on, because I wanted to refrain from going around working to earn money even after death.

Looking at the blue bird, Limon smiled.

“Have a good look. I will help as much as I can.”

[Help me? What?]

“…why are you looking at me with the eyes of an unemployed man who boasts that he is preparing for a job when he has no intention of working?”

[Yeah, that’s true.]

Struggle!

[Oh, why are you hitting me! Anyway, it’s true that the team leader can’t enter the dungeon!]

“When did I say I would go in and help? He said he would help out.”

[There are things you can do outside the dungeon!]

“There are many.”

He has his own work to do.

Watching Limon speak confidently, Yuna-kyung couldn’t erase her doubtful expression until the end.

Charlotte, on the other hand, asked with an interesting expression.

“Are you going to intervene until the end?”

“Aren’t you embarrassed to come all the way here and just leave your hands alone?”

“What a cheeky hound.”

Isn’t it just a matter of not beating the liberation brigade?

Charlotte, who looked at Limon with a smirk, eventually gave a light snort and spoke proudly.

“Wherever you like, do whatever you want.”

“Look forward to it, boss. At least I’ll make sure you don’t have to worry about things outside the dungeon.”

And Limon gave a meaningful smile as if he knew it would be the case with Charlotte.

The guide’s blue bird.

Forces to undertake the exploration.

The Golden Dragon Princess who will hunt.

Even the sword master to support from the rear.

It was the moment when a truly fantastic dungeon raid party was formed, unprecedented since the opening of the Iron Age.
