To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 482
Episode 482 The Devil’s Realm, the Underground (8)
“Heo Eok…! Huh…!”
shortness of breath
My whole body was exhausted just by lightly swinging my arms.
Ray, who confirmed that the monster’s body was split in two and stopped breathing, collapsed on the spot.
The goblin queen also sat down, as if her entire body had relaxed.
It had only been about 10 minutes or so since I went down to the basement.
They were able to defeat the monster by working together for the first time.
* * *
When he came to his senses, it was already around the time the dungeon corridor was dark.
It seems that the monster that has already cooled down has been the owner of this hallway, so the other monsters are nowhere to be seen.
Thanks to that, Ray and the Goblin Queen were able to survive even in unconscious situations.
When she had time to gather herself and look around the situation, the Goblin Queen grabbed Rey’s hand.
“Follow me.”
Goblins tend to have a bit of night vision.
When it is so dark that you cannot distinguish even an inch ahead, you can perceive your surroundings far better than humans.
While walking down a dark hallway looking for a place to rest.
The Goblin Queen spoke softly in a firm voice.
“…one last move. You have a hidden number.”
It wasn’t a reproachful tone, but there was a slight sadness in his voice.
Hana Rei also didn’t hide it because she wanted to hide it.
‘It’s not like a hidden number.’
Even now, he can’t even remember how he swung his sword back then.
no.
Did he catch something after the dagger was shattered?
Even if I tried to recall it, I couldn’t recall it clearly because my memory at the time was ambiguous.
Ray shook his head.
“That was a sword beyond my realm.”
If you ask me to open it again, it’s a sword that I can’t do twice.
For now.
‘Did Aira foresee this state?’
The sword from earlier was a sword that could only come from the imaginations of luxury warriors.
As he swung his arms as he wanted, the sky split and the earth shook.
A small crack in space begins to appear.
Her own sword moved slowly after him.
As his heart wanted to end the monster’s breath, the path for him was clearly visible.
After Rey was silent for a long time, the Goblin Queen let out a small breath.
“Well… It’s just an alliance relationship. If I feel offended by this, then I must be strange. Oh, would you like to rest here for a while?”
At the place where the Goblin Queen stopped, there was a small field where the moonlight glistened even though it was inside the dungeon.
Ray nodded.
“It’s good. But first before rest…”
He approached the Goblin Queen.
Carefully, he reached out and touched her face.
I feel quite a bit of repulsive force at the tip of my finger.
It’s not a fatal wound, but it’s not a minor one either.
Her body was swollen from the battle with the monster, and her wrists were shaking from fractures.
Ray frowned and let out a sigh.
“I need to start with treatment.”
“therapy? let it be As long as you live, you will get better.”
Her speech, which was still clumsy, was made all the more bizarre by her swollen throat.
If done incorrectly, it may cause breathing difficulties.
“I can’t see it like that. lie down and rest for a while I’ll be right back.”
Laying the Goblin Queen down on a gentle hill hurriedly left.
Fortunately, there were many grasses around, so I was able to gather some herbs.
They weren’t medicines that were particularly effective in treating wounds, but it would be better than nothing.
A piece of roughly mashd grass was wrapped in cloth and wrapped around the neck.
“Umm…”
“Be patient even if it hurts.”
“It doesn’t hurt. No… I only found out now, but I don’t think I have any sense.”
Perhaps the swelling caused by the bruise is so severe that the sensation in a specific area has disappeared.
“It will come back on its own in time. Everything else is fine, so I’m worried about your body.”
‘Are you sick and tired of fighting so violently?’ She muttered, making a splint out of a skillfully trimmed twig and fixing the goblin queen’s wrist tightly.
The bones are already aligned.
Fortunately, the bone is not completely out of alignment, so if you leave it as it is for a few months, it will reattach beautifully.
After thinking about how to get rid of the swelling in his neck, Ray briefly thought of antibiotics, but shook his head.
A sore throat is usually caused by a virus and often gets better without antibiotics within a few days.
“I have no choice but to look at the condition of the neck.”
There is no way to use your hands.
In addition, it was good to keep an eye on her condition for a while because she did not complain of pain or shortness of breath.
The Goblin Queen cleared her throat for a moment before speaking calmly.
“By the way… can you feel it?”
“What do you mean?”
“Right after killing the monster. Something strange is going around your body. It doesn’t feel too bad, but I wonder if it’s just me.”
Strange things going around your body?
Is it a goblin or a parasite?
Even in the state of sight, Ray looked at her pulse.
Then, he faintly felt the touch of mana.
“Eh?”
Surprised, he poured a small amount of mana into the goblin queen’s body.
Gulleong-.
Although weak, the backlash has returned.
It must be proof that mana flows through the body.
“It’s a strange feeling.”
The Goblin Queen slightly waryed him and withdrew her hand.
On the other hand, Ray tilts his head.
‘A goblin mana? Did he absorb that mana into his body while killing the monster?’
All objects have mana.
Life is no exception.
For some reason, the mana of monsters, which would otherwise be scattered immediately upon death, lingered for a long time in this dungeon and affected the surrounding creatures.
Maybe that’s why the goblin queen got mana.
no.
No matter what, what do you mean goblin mana!
He wouldn’t have even made a mana rod, so how could he manage it!
“…I just rested a little, but my body seems to be full of energy. Maybe it’s because I just killed the monster.”
Although it was weak, it would be natural since it contained mana.
Usually, when a monster or beast has mana, it is called a ‘spiritual creature’.
By killing just one monster, the Goblin Queen has now become a spiritual creature.
‘It’s hard to say that his physical ability has improved dramatically, but… he’ll be able to avoid minor illnesses.’
But why did he come now and have mana?
Even when she was on the 4th floor, she killed many monsters and grew up.
Even at that time, she did not feel the existence of mana itself, but now she suddenly came to contain mana in her body.
No matter how you think about it, something was strange.
‘Just going down one floor and catching a strong monster won’t give me mana.’
If that’s how you get mana, it makes sense that you should have restored about half of your previous strength by now.
“Come to think of it… we haven’t even checked what floor this place is on yet.”
In the dungeon, the current floor number is displayed at the entrance of the underground stairs.
Not only that, but the coordinates of where you are are also written in numbers, so if you don’t look carefully, you could end up lost in a dungeon with a similar structure.
“It’s not too late to check tomorrow. Get plenty of rest now.”
I’m not kidding, if the goblin queen used her wrists just a little bit more, she’d be unable to move her hands for the rest of her life.
It was only by matching the bones and applying a splint, so the rest had no choice but to rely on the monster’s exceptional healing power.
When asked to rest, the Goblin Queen agreed.
“I think so too. I can’t even die in a pointless fight.”
I felt chills running down my spine thinking that monsters similar to the monsters I saw today would still be swarming in the hallways.
Even lighting a fire in order not to be caught is doing it with great care.
without even having a simple meal.
They were speechless in front of the fire, lost in thought.
There was only a heavy silence for a while in the fields lit by bonfires.
* * *
A week has passed since the Holy Kingdom’s contingent entered the dungeon.
The knights who had succeeded in supplying food and drinking water to the main force by plundering the monsters trudged through the corridors with tired bodies.
As the gloomy atmosphere prevailed, a knight with a good physique laughed and joked.
“haha. To think that so many knights had to deal with only monsters… I don’t know when the continent’s chivalry changed to be kind to monsters instead of women.”
There are tens of thousands and sixty of the knights here.
Even though the Lessian Empire and knights from other countries were mixed, 60 knights could easily steam a small and medium-sized village.
People of that size were dealing with goblins and grotesque hairy beasts all day long, so their pride was hurt a lot without realizing it.
“Conserve your stamina. We have to go hunting again tomorrow.”
“What is hunting? If I live like this, I will not be able to die in my name. Do you really believe that a rescue team will come from outside?”
When the knight asked if he was serious, the other knights stared blankly at him.
The Paladins silently nodded.
“I will definitely come. The Seongguk will not betray its faith.”
“Whoa… when the hell are the rescuers coming? no. Even if a rescue team arrives, more and more people are trapped here. If this happens, won’t we have no choice but to live by ourselves?”
“Seongguk has been looking for an answer. This time, without fail, Gaia will lead believers on the right path.”
Wrong.
As long as the name ‘Gaia’ came out of the paladin’s mouth, they would not give up and turn around.
Since they were nobles risking their lives just for that, it would have been quicker for them to give up.
“They are speechless. I’ll wait another week Still, if the rescue team doesn’t come, I’ll get out of the main unit with those who understand me.”
The knights also knew very well what he was talking about.
From the main unit, only mechanical orders to defeat the monsters were given every day.
I wonder if it was in the past when I could use mana.
In the current situation, bumping into a monster was crossing the line of fire for them.
No matter how knightly he may be, his own life is precious.
The paladins respected him and nodded slowly.
“Do whatever you want.”
