The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant - Chapter 21
Episode 21
“What is that…”
The woman could not hide her embarrassment at Namgung’s words.
“That thing you’re wearing on your finger. “You guys from Shakan, right?”
flinch –
the woman’s shoulders shook.
“200 heads. A needle with paralyzing venom that can be said to be a lower version of the red hornet’s stinger. “What were you planning on doing to me with this?”
As he said, the ring on the finger of the woman who held out her hand had what looked like a very fine needle.
“…Ahh!!”
When Namgung twisted the woman’s wrist and took off the ring, she let out a faint moan at the pain she felt in her wrist.
Tangerang –
After throwing the ring on the floor and stepping on it, he looked around and said.
“What… evil!”
He twisted the woman’s wrist a little more.
Heedless of her screaming, he roughly lifted the sleeve of his clothes as if he wanted to check something.
The blue blood vessels on the woman’s wrists, which were covered by clothes, were swollen as if they were about to burst.
‘Hocha’s Fang. It’s the lowest level poison, so it won’t kill you… but it’s quite painful for those with wounds.’
“Is there anyone else who ordered this?”
“Please save me!!”
At that moment, the woman shouted at Namgung as if she had been waiting.
“Those people ordered it!”
Rustling –
At the same time as she shouted, the bushes in the park shook. Then a group of people from around the area appeared.
“….”
Namgung looked at them and tilted his head.
‘what? Those guys.’
A shabby appearance that looks as if it hasn’t washed in days, and a foul smell and the smell of alcohol despite being quite far away.
Besides, he seemed quite old.
It wasn’t anything unusual.
Because they were vagabonds who could sometimes be seen around stations or on the streets.
“Damn it. “Anyway, nothing is going right.”
“Things got really messy.”
“What do you think? “You just have to deal with it.”
They wandered around as if they were annoyed and slowly walked towards Namgung.
“You saw the news, right? “It’s a situation where we don’t even know how many people have died.”
“Nothing will change if one more person is added.”
“hey!! there. “If you want to live, give everything you have and get out.”
The man at the front of the group of vagabonds shouted at him.
“Hmm…”
Namgung looked at them pitifully.
‘A bug is bound to get caught at any time.’
He sneered as he looked at the sword the man was holding. It was a low-level sword that could be purchased from a bundle.
The price is probably 500 heads.
‘I think I bought a sword with the head I received as a survival reward… At least that person seems to know how to use a bundle.’
Looking at the blood on the blade, I could tell that the goblin had been hunted with that sword.
Proving Namgung’s thoughts, the man seemed to be one of the youngest in the group.
“Before I cut your head off with this knife.”
The man raised his sword and shouted at Namgung, but his every action made it difficult to tell that he knew how to use a sword.
‘It doesn’t even look like it’s big enough to kill a person…’
At best, it’s probably meant to be a threat.
Namgung, who survived numerous battlefields, was able to instinctively see through his opponent’s skills.
It wasn’t an ability like a skill.
It was a long experience.
Besides…
“Hey!! “Can’t you hear me?”
Apparently, they didn’t properly see the number of goblins that Namgung had killed.
The goblin’s corpses had already turned to ashes and disappeared.
“Can I give you what I have?”
“What is it? what is it. Head yes. “Give me the head you got earlier!!”
“I’m serious? Are you really trying to take the head from me?”
“…what?”
“Do you know how to steal the head from someone else?”
“That’s right….”
Shuuk—!!
puck!!!
At that moment, Namgung threw the old dagger left over from the dungeon from his arms.
“Kaaak!!”
The dagger was instantly embedded in the shoulder of the man standing in front of him.
The man dropped the sword he was holding on the floor without even using it properly and sat down on the floor.
“You can receive it from the person who has the head, or when you kill him.”
Namgung
slowly walked towards him.
“Haha, hoho, I probably didn’t do this with the intention of sharing the head with a smile. Are you going to kill me?”
“What are you doing!! “Kill that bastard!!”
As the man shouted, the others, who were confused for a moment, all rushed towards Namgung.
“It’s not uncommon to live in an apocalypse, but…”
He smiled bitterly as he looked at the rushing crowd.
“It’s so shabby.”
Except for the man in the lead, there were no proper weapons. To them, it may have been something they committed with great determination, but to Namgung, it was just another commonplace incident.
Buuuung–!!
Gakmok clumsily hit Namgung on the shoulder.
Namgung didn’t even avoid it.
Pajik-!!
When the wooden piece broke due to the force, the man holding it looked at Namgung in confusion.
“I will kill you Lord!!”
The man shouted, aiming at the broken wooden beam.
“With what? how?”
Seeing that the end of the leg was shaking so much, it seemed like I didn’t even have the courage to swing it again.
Phew….
At that moment, the man’s side turned red.
“Why do people like you always show up in situations like this like cockroaches?”
“Ugh!!”
The man fell backwards with a scream as he saw the dagger stuck in his side.
“이 개새끼가!!”
“Dude!!”
The moment they saw their colleague stabbed with a dagger, the rest of the people rushed towards Namgung, perhaps out of courage or madness.
“There is this problem because the first gate of hell was closed too quickly. “This kind of trash should have been completely cleaned up.”
“Hwaaaaa!!”
“Aaaah!!”
Namgung drew his sword towards the men who were running towards him while making a sound that was either a scream or a shout.
Boom…!!
To him, who had been through asura (修羅), their sloppy attack was no different from watching it in slow motion.
Phew…! Sigh! Deep!!
Tadadaang…!!
Namgung dodged their attacks and stabbed his rusty old daggers into their waists and thighs one by one.
“Ugh…!”
“Ugh!!”
Namgung, who quickly overpowered a group of fifteen people, walked towards the man who was first in the lead.
“It’s a rusty dagger. It’s also a very old old dagger. “The wound itself is not fatal, but the rust on the blade is toxic.”
Tsuuuuu….
At that moment, their wounded area slowly began to turn green.
“It is not very useful against monsters and is a useless tool… but it is excellent for weak humans who have just opened the gates of hell.”
“Ugh…!!”
“what’s this?!”
The rust on the dagger slowly began to spread from the wound area like poison.
“You better be careful. “If we leave it in a state where there is no immunity, we will have to cut off all the limbs.”
“Please save me!!”
The people who had collapsed knelt down towards Namgung and begged as if they had never done so before.
“Nothing special. It looks like he knows how to use the yaksha bundle. “You can take the immune booster sold there.”
“Go go… thank you!!”
At Namgung’s words, the man using the sword hurriedly opened the bag.
“What are you doing?”
“Damn, I know…”
But, except for him, the rest of the people looked at each other with puzzled expressions, as if they didn’t even know how to open the bundle.
Even if the instructions were ingrained into memory, not everyone could use them properly.
Just as a child uses a cell phone that he or she has only used a few times better than an adult.
“1000 heads?! Are you kidding me…!! “How can I buy this!!”
At that moment, the man shouted.
“Look at you, Mr. Kim. “Is that the strange screen you showed us earlier?”
“If it’s 1000 heads… doesn’t that mean we can’t buy it?”
At that moment, their faces began to distort.
“I don’t think we’re close enough to even tell you how much the price is.”
“…Damn it!!”
The man holding the sword gritted his teeth at Namgung’s words. But at that moment, Namgung handed him the sword that had fallen.
“It’s too early to give up. you. “You told me how to get the head, right?”
“…what?”
Namgung sneered and spoke in a low voice in his ear.
“Either receive it or take it away. “I think some of them still have heads.”
The man’s eyes changed at his words.
‘that’s right. After the mess was over, everyone received 500 heads each. Among those old people, there are definitely quite a few who don’t wear headsets.’ Looking at the trembling of the uvula
as
he swallowed dry saliva, Namgung shrugged his shoulders as if there was no need to say anything more and stood up.
“Ugh… Ugh…”
“What should I do now…”
“I got involved in something like this for no reason… Ugh…!!”
It was then.
The people around were shocked as the blade of the sword protruded through the chest of the fallen man.
“What are you doing!!!”
“Look! “You’re crazy!!”
“Hehehe… I can’t help it. Those who will live must live. It’s a world like this. is not it? That’s what everyone thought and did it. “Nothing will change if one or two people die.”
The man took a deep breath and said.
“You crazy bastard!!!”
“I’ll kill you first!!”
At his words, people began to shout.
‘The world isn’t that much of a mess yet… but if your life is at stake, you end up being faithful to your nature rather than reason.’
Namgung knew this better than anyone else.
Therefore, just shaking a small gap was enough to produce results without having to get blood on one’s hands.
“…Kill me!!!”
“Damn you!!!”
“shit!! “This piece of trash…!!”
The people who had gathered to rob Namgung just a little while ago now began to fight, biting and tearing at each other.
“How could this be…”
“Because it’s a world like this.”
The woman behind Namgung looked at the scene in disbelief.
The outcome of the fight didn’t take long.
The man, who was carrying a sword but was unfamiliar with it, was beaten to death by the others.
Those who were trying to snatch the sword that had fallen to the floor ended up stabbing and stabbing each other and falling to the floor one by one.
“Thank you for saving me.”
The woman spoke to Namgung with a pale face.
“I couldn’t help it either. “Those people told me… that if I didn’t do as they told me, they would kill me…”
“I’m sure they would have told me.”
At that moment, Namgung lowered his head and spoke to the woman.
“You’re telling a foolish lie.”
“…yes?”
The woman responded to his words with a pale face.
“Among them, the only one who knew how to properly use the Yaksha bundle was the sword master. The rest couldn’t even open the window. Besides, he wasn’t very good at it, but he was clumsy, as if he was trying to remember.”
“That…”
“Those people prepared an attack using you as bait? “I think someone told me to do this.”
“Who is this…?”
Namgung spoke to her.
“You.”
At that moment, the corners of the woman’s mouth changed strangely.
“You did it, didn’t you?”
It was laughter.
