Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter 57

Exploration

The next morning, Ferda's group leaves town.

Could it have been a sandstorm that swept through the desert once? The sky was clear without any clouds. Thanks to this, Kwain's speed is also accelerating.

I was flying fast across the breeze.

There was a heated talk on Kwain's back. The new colleague, Shantam, was talking about Akasha.

“· · · · · · As I said so far, there is one thing they have in common in their path of travel. It's the first time anyone's ever appeared from the east without any exception. ”

All of a sudden, the reason why Korut suddenly said, 'Where did Akasha come from? It was because I asked the question. Shantam replied based on the data he had gathered.

“Amazing. I thought it had been randomly appearing all over the desert. · · · · · · · ”

Korut blurs with honest admiration.

A moment later, he blinked and asked.

“Does that mean their stronghold is to the east? ”

“I haven't been there, so I don't know the details. However, I think it is best to proceed with the expedition towards the Sun's East at this time. ”

Shantam's answer without hesitation.

That's amazing. I didn't think anyone who didn't even know the origin of the Savior could get there. Ferda, who glittered with both eyes, immediately turned his gaze beyond the east.

The second time, the first time disaster started.

In the original article, the disaster was described as:

That day was not the same as usual. It is because the sky is getting whiter and whiter from the far end of the east sky. At first, I just thought the sky was brighter, but this was a mistake.

It was a giant flower. A flower big enough to cover the sky. Time gradually flowed. On the third day, flowers bloomed widely. Then huge fruits fell from all over the continent. Lots and lots of fruits.

Later, when the fruit was split in half.

A true disaster struck the world.

It was Akasha, a monster called the fragment of disaster, that protruded from the split fruit. The kingdom, which had no information about Akasha, walked the path of destruction in less than a month.

Every time a civilization is destroyed and a myriad of people are dying, the number of Akashas is rising. And finally disaster consumed the world completely.

‘The second disaster was not prevented. ’

I gathered information too late and did not respond well to impulses.

I did not share the information I worked so hard to gather with the kingdom. As a result, the kingdom was destroyed and the second author and reality were killed by the second disaster.

‘Of course, we managed to stop them in the third round. ’

When the 3rd round of the Savior was staged, there were many words that the writer threw too many. It was because Jo, who appeared in the third round, was too specialized in the second disaster.

‘Obviously, he was a hunter in a zombie world. ’

The third author was truly deceptive against Akasha, who possessed similar abilities as zombies on Earth. Moreover, the second author gathered a lot of information to prevent disasters.

Afterwards, all the other authors prevented the second disaster using the method of the third author. Ferda thought so too, if nothing else happened. That was the most effective and effective strategy.

When I was so lost in thought.

The star-spangled monster slaps Ferda in the ear.

“Kihaaaaaa!”

Subsequently, a huge object passes through Kwain's surroundings. Thanks to this, Ferda quickly uncovered the identity of the object.

“Wyvern?”

Monsters that look like resembling Pterosaurs.

It is the Wyvern. Wherever it appears, the Wyvern opens its mouth and threatens the group. I was ready to rush right away. But even before flapping his wings a few times, Isha opened her lips.

“Freezing prison. ”

Quad Duc

Wyvern's torso freezes in an instant. Not only that, the tail, legs and wings begin to freeze quickly. The moment the Wyvern was embarrassed.

Phew!

The magical sword created by Tervand pierces Wyvern's head.

The Wyvern plunges into a void end.

“Lord, are you hurt anywhere? ”

“My king, are you all right? ”

Seeing the two worrying questions, he nods.

Then he looks at the body of the Wyvern that crashed on the floor and asks.

“Yeah, I'm fine. What the hell is that? He looks like a friend. ”

“A flying monster called the Wyvern. ”

Shantam immediately replied. He speaks with a somewhat pale face, surprised by the sudden attack on Wyvern.

“He lives in a swarm in a canyon at the edge of the Eastern Desert. I think the Wyvern just fell is a pack of Scouts. ”

“I see. Huh? Wait, so that means... ”

“Looks like we're almost there. ”

Shantam smiled and replied.

Like he said, at the eastern edge, at the end of the desert, there is a huge canyon. A steep place you can't get to without flying. Moreover, this was not the only problem.

‘At the bottom of the canyon flows polar water. ’

Even steel is a cruel river that melts.

There were dozens and hundreds of Wyvern swarms in the sky. If that number of Wyvern attacks in unison, it won't be possible to cross the canyon, even if you're a skilled Swordmaster.

What I learned was in the fifth episode of the original article.

At that time, the fifth author crossed the desert to the canyon to gather information about the Second Catastrophe. Around this time, some of the readers of the Savior blamed them for crossing the desert when they had to clear it with reference to Wave 3.

However, the fifth author, who did not know the reader's reaction, crossed the desert at the end of the few months and came to the canyon. And when he saw the landscape unfolding before his eyes, he gave up immediately. It was natural for readers to insult themselves with arrogance.

After that, there was no one who wanted to go to the end of the desert.

Then I got to the eighth round.

Once again, there is one who wants to cross the desert.

‘The 8th author, Yoo Baek Hyun. ’

Before the second disaster began, he headed for the desert alone at a given leisure time. He crosses the desert with only one wandering sword, and finally reaches the canyon.

‘And I came across the canyon like a lie. ’

At that time, Yoo Baek Hyun subdued the head of the Wyvern and stepped out over the canyon. And then what lay before his eyes was a huge barrier that was neither length nor height. Yoo Baek Hyun swung his sword without question at the appearance of the open wall, as if he were proclaiming the end of the world.

But the barrier did not break.

Even Yoo Baek Hyun had not been cut by the sword, so I had to give up. That's why I said that. It's useless to go anyway. Just don't go.

That's when I remembered the Eastern Desert Canyon.

“Then I'll explain Akasha's abnormal behavior for the rest of her time. ”

Shantam started the lecture again.

Korut raises his hand as if he knew what he was trying to explain.

“Are you talking about being vacant? ”

“Yes, Akasha absorbs human vitality and magical power, and when it is determined that it has absorbed enough, it firmly roots to the ground. And then we wait about half a day. ”

Ferda was immediately out of her mind.

Because this was a story that didn't come from the original. In the beginning, the original Akasha had never done anything like that. However, Shantham and Korut had a conversation as if they knew such behavior well.

“We've seen that a lot. So I tried to take care of it, but I couldn't even scratch it with a common weapon. ”

“Yes. When Akasha roots down, her coat becomes harder than steel ever since. In my opinion, it seems that you can barely tear the envelope apart if you're more than a Great Warrior. ”

Desert Great Warrior stands for Excellent Expert.

And all you can do is chew through the skin. It was well known how hard Akasha's roots were on the ground.

“Do you even know why you're doing that? ”

“Sorry, that's not enough data yet. ”

Shantam bows his head as if to beg.

Then I thought of something as if it were a coincidence.

“Ah! But I've discovered something interesting recently. ”

“What's that? ”

“As the termite brethren turned into Akashas, they whispered: They said," Not enough. ’It is said. ”

“Sufficient? What do you mean? ”

“I don't know yet. But what I've noticed here is that acacians have conversations. And when people become Akashas, they're naturally speaking their language. ”

In the beginning, new information came out in succession.

When I heard it with an interesting face. Tervand, who was at Keang's head, suddenly turns away.

“My king, I can see your destination. ”

A place pointed to by an ugly finger.

It was a canyon in the eastern desert called the end of the desert.

* * *

Kuoooooo!

With a loud noise, Keang lands near the canyon.

The next thing I saw was a swarm of Wyvern soaking in the sky. They cry out a life-threatening cry to make sure Ferda and her group are aware of it.

However, none of the group cares about the Wyvern's threat.

“Wow, the river is red here. ”

You mutter as if surprised by the realm looking down the canyon.

Then Shantam, who was just approaching, added an explanation.

“It's called the River of Blood. ”

“Why? Because of the color? ”

“Blame it on that, but when you go into that river, your whole body melts into a handful of blood. ”

The gruesome answer returns. But the reality was not a frightened face. Rather, I looked at the river of blood with curious eyes.

“Amazing. I'd like to take a look at the horsepower array. ”

“If the king wishes, I will. ”

Tervand replies like he's about to jump in right now.

“Well, no. That's it. It's gonna take too long to get there. ”

However, the reality soon shook his head.

It was because the canyon was too deep. And now, I had to prioritize a common mission rather than a personal curiosity. Isha yells frantically as she looks away from the river of blood.

“Lord! Look over there! ”

“Huh? Where? ”

“Hey, there! Across the canyon!”

Where her fingers are headed.

What was there was a twitching tree.

“· · · · · · · Acacia. ”

The complexion of Shantam and Korut, who discovered it, became stiff. They weren't even one or two. Dozens of them crawl across the canyon into the desert in droves.

“Looks like you came to the right place. ”

Ferda smiles coldly as she looks at it.

Now all that's left is to cross the canyon with Qiang, defeat the Akasha horde, and gather other information. At that time, I felt a fierce life in heaven.

“Kihaaaaaa!”

“Kahaha! Kahaha! ”

The Wyvern horde has just come this far.

Tervand, who discovered it, gave a cool glow of a golden eyelight.

“I think we should take care of them first. ”

“Yes, I do. ”

His nod raises his magical strength.

“I've got to make some friends with Kwain. ”

With a cold smile on your mouth.

Unilateral hunting has begun.
