In the Promised Land
Tsk... tsk... tsk...
The fires of the campfire were blazing up into the sky like wildfire. The active volcano appears to be near the center of the Promised Land, but it still has not arrived.
It was telling me it was that big.
[Cough...]
At the top, the dragons were whirling, elongated, staring at their prey.
“Don't worry. They can't get into the woods. The monsters here have their own absolute realm. ”
To the heatless looking up at the sky, the colony said, putting more flaming cigarettes into the campfire.
“From now on, the forest is the realm of platinum dragons. Don't even think about flying up there. At that moment, they will rush like bees. ”
“You know better. ”
Heatless looked at her for a moment.
“Why?”
His gaze rises.
“I think we should spend the day here anyway...... How about we talk about you at least once? ”
“Ha…? What's the point of your old life here? Aren't you the same? No matter what you did in reality, no matter who you were, you will now be the owner of a throne that everyone recognizes. ”
Jung Minji saw his fight in the saints and couldn't help but admit it.
I saw the battle between Philip Roen and Salman.
I acknowledge that even the two of them will not be able to win with their abilities.
But the heat of steel standing on top of those guys.
That's the reality.
When he rushed to consolidate the five dragons, he was already unifying the continents.
‘Despite Nar di Maug's magic. ’
That's why they want to see it with their own eyes.
How this man, who started with nothing, could unite the continent with his powers faster than he did.
“I hear you're allied with Allies of Allies. Why did you leave him and follow me? ”
“Do you even know that? As expected, the man who unified the continent is different. I don't know anything from one to ten. ”
She shakes her head and replies.
“I didn't abandon him. You were just wondering. About coming here nobody wants to go. ”
Heatless asked her in a low voice.
“Why do you hate humans? ”
It could have been just too much.
It was her and Alize Creed who sought the throne in the Seven Thrones to a tribe other than humans.
But Alize is inherently different.
It is because he sought safety, not the one seeking the throne in the first place. He who wished for his comfort next to him who ascended the throne was the same as before and in the present life.
‘He chose Reynolds. Not enough vessel to sit on the throne. ’
But the colony was different.
She knew she was ten years old, but she led the five dragons into a blood clot with Kangho Lee to the end.
‘Red Rosa. ’
People saw her collapse through the heart in the Nelzuff Desert in the south and named her after the terrible war.
Ironically, the blood flowing from the whole body was as beautiful as a flower blooming.
Because he lost his horse when even the enemy couldn't afford it.
The blood scattered on Heat 30722; did not evaporate for several months, but it was evidence of how much dragon blood covered it.
Nevertheless, she chose death over surrendering to Lee Kang-ho to the end.
‘It's not just about honor. It's not because they lived a life that hated humans enough to die in reality. ’
The hatred of the people of the colony must have been created here.
‘If you know why……. ’
Perhaps we can learn the secret of the Promised Land.
The fever looks at her with sharp eyes. She hesitates for the first time.
“Why do I hate humans? It's simple, because they abandoned me to live. ”
I twitched my eyebrows at what Jung Minji said.
"Just?"
It may sound strange, but it was a natural choice for outsiders who were conscripted to the Seven Thrones.
I have suffered more heat than anyone else that the outcome of my ill-fated sympathy is death.
And as the leader of a tribe, I thought she had enough admission now.
‘The grudge in my eyes is sharp enough to call it a delicate murmur. ’
“ ……. ”
“When I was summoned to the Seven Thrones, there were 100 people who fell here. ”
Heatless listens quietly to her.
“There were no safe nodes, and the monsters in front of us were the only ones we couldn't handle when we were recruited. The only place the monsters didn't invade was the temple. ”
‘Temple……? ’
“On the first day, 30 out of 100 people died. There were torn corpses in front of us, but we couldn't even get our thumbs out of the temple, so we just had to watch them until they rotted. ”
The three Nodes that Kang Chan-Seok built were one of the safest.
It wasn't that there were monsters around, but at best, Goblins and Lizardmen.
Even so, when the first monster wave erupted, it was devastating.
After a long time, those who had fallen from this place who had not been able to attack would not have remained intact.
‘Maybe it's a wonder I'm still alive. ’
The question is, how has she been alive all this time?
“We had no food. We had to make a choice. Will you stay in a safe temple? Or risk getting out. You know, there was only a torch and a small knife in the inventory when they were recruited. ”
Heatless nods at her words.
It was obvious what the outcome would be. It was because he experienced the same things as the people who gathered at the time of the first conscription.
“Human hunting. ”
In his words, Jung Minji smiled bitterly.
“That's right."
Choose prey in front of you rather than risk leaving monsters.
“Better proven to be safe than meat that doesn't even know if it's poisoned or not. ”
“ ……. ”
Fever was as if something had happened to me before.
Eating human flesh to survive.
Kwaak
I felt the strength in my fist.
There's nothing to say in that situation. The difference between making a choice and getting a choice is whether you live or die.
“But what is a temple? Why are you all in the same place at once? Billions of people were recruited at the same time, but what I found was a week later. ”
“This is not the only Rocksmouth land in Seven Thrones. ”
“What?"
“Platinum Dragon. Nar di Maug may be the only creature on the continent with the power of divinity. This land is controlled by Maug, not by Rockshmoor. Perhaps the moment mankind was first recruited, he brought them together himself. ”
She may not be wrong.
The magic of creation, Nar di Maug, was said to be unique in the beginning, except for God.
‘Perhaps it is equal to great magic or higher. ’
If you're that good....
Lakshmoor will also try not to touch his heart in order to get a few humans out.
“But only the student has changed, and the exam is the same. Dragon or God, after all. ”
Jung Minji said coldly, looking at the blazing flame.
“Maug appeared to us when ten of the other seventy died. ”
“ ……. ”
“Hehe... Hehe. Like laughing at us who drank human blood because we didn't have any water. ”
The sound of its gnashing teeth is heard clearly in the ears of the heatless.
“He told us to make a choice. If you leave behind only one of the sixty sacrifices, I will send the rest to the continent. ”
His face seemed to be drawn in front of his eyes.
His eyes, who were arrogant to look down on man as a toy, were definitely like God.
“In the process, my brother died. They tried to sacrifice the boy who knew nothing. ”
She puts her hands on her forehead.
Her arm, covered in white scales, cannot be called human.
“But I didn't stay still either. I killed half of them with my own hands.... But then what do we do? My brother's not coming back. Eventually, they pushed me into the temple and ran away. I didn't even get revenge right. ”
I felt her anger.
“Stupid. ”
At that moment.
The colony stares at the words of infertility.
“…… what? ”
“I understand the situation. Survival of the fittest. I'm not wrong. It's funny, especially in our situation, wanting humanity. ”
“…… you. ”
“I'm sorry about your brother. But they abandoned you for a living. If you wanted to live, you should have at least tried to get into the majority, not the minority. ”
I didn't mean to comfort you.
Jung Minji did not understand why she had revealed her past to the feeble.
“You also drank human blood in many ways to survive. ”
“Now... you mean they're right, not me?" ”
“No, it's not a matter of right and wrong. ”
The fever was fine with her. Maybe you can because you're the only one who's lived here longer than she has.
“It means you've got the wrong person to be mad at. ”
Jung Minji stares at the silent heat without saying anything.
“Do not abandon humanity under ordinary circumstances, but live for it. It's wrong for the student to take such a test. ”
“ ……. ”
“The god who recruited us in this godforsaken place, or the gecko who laughed at you, watching you die and kill each other at the temple. ”
Heatless looked straight at the colony.
“That's why I'm here. ”
“…… what? ”
“To twist the wrist of the student who caused such a stupid problem. ”
She loses her words and looks at her fever.
It is ridiculous to say so confidently, but strangely, his words did not seem impossible.
“But he's trying to keep us restless, too. ”
“Huh?"
Heatless stood up slowly with a low sigh and robbed his clothes.
“Pick up your weapon, civilian. ”
He said she was furious.
[Grrrrrrrrr….]
In the darkness, you hear a roar toward them, with a sharp glare.
Without heat, he glanced around with a bold voice and said.
“It's going to be a long night. ”
