Raid Breaker
< [Chapter 29] Longevity (1) >
@ Longevity ratio.
Redbird Knights.
I could tell by their names that they had something to do with the Red Eagles.
Jung Tae-gyun, the master of the Redbird Knights, was a person who had lived in the Red Eagles Knights for a long time.
He was a Captain-class knight who climbed to the top three of the Red Eagles and left the Red Eagles a year ago because he wanted to build his own.
It was the Redbird Knights that came out like that.
Redeagles and Redbird had no choice but to get along, as they came out of a situation where they understood and cared enough about each other.
Jung Tae-gyun was a very typical defensive + reinforcement knight, and since the time of the Red Eagles, his tanking skills have been well established.
The knights of the Redbird Knights were mostly soldier-grade, but the main process, at least the right arm of the bacteria, was establishing the face with Officer Knight.
The number of knights was seven, and Titan was running two. He hired 20 helpers and four dungeons as porters and cleaners to attack this grade 5 dungeon.
This was definitely enough power to target a Grade 5 dungeon.
“I think I need to know my abilities one last time... … This is a very sensitive issue, so not in detail. Can you tell me roughly what family and role you can play in the team?" ”
Jung Tae-gyun was in his mid-40s, but it looked like he was in his early 30s. In addition, his strong body and intense eyes allowed him to see that he was a proper reinforcement knight.
“It has emissions capabilities and specializes in sniper shooting. ”
Soohyuk spoke of the most okay abilities.
“Oh! That's great. You will play a big role in this dungeon raid. ”
As soon as Tae Gyun heard Su-hyuk's words, he turned around and nodded.
In fact, Knights with emission capabilities, who also know how to handle firearms, were the Knights' favorite kind of dealers. If you're a marksman there, I'd recommend joining the Knights right away.
“You won't have to worry about food wherever you go. ”
“I think you're worth more than food. Anyway, if you do well, I'll give you a bonus, so take care of it. ”
Since Jung Tae-gyun was a fairly rounded person, it was quite comfortable just talking to him.
“Thank you."
Suhyuk comfortably talked with Tae Gyun and immediately joined the expedition.
However, the atmosphere of the expedition was not the same as that of the master, Jung Tae-gyun. To be precise, I felt a strange distance because the main character leading the Redbird Knights with the bacteria was unusual.
‘Well, I came as a mercenary anyway. ’
But Soohyuk didn't really care about the atmosphere. He joined this expedition in the first place to earn dimensional power and money.
So no matter how the existing expedition members saw themselves, they didn't really care.
* * * *
“What's this gun? ”
Not everyone in the expedition was distant from Soohyuk. Rather, there was one person who was annoyingly following Suhyuk.
His name was Zhang Seon Yul, a new recruit who joined the expedition.
“You don't think the Helper doesn't know the dimensional rifle, do you? ”
“Yes! I thought it was K-14 at one point, but it's a little different from the details. I'm good with guns, but I have no idea. ”
“It's just a personalized gun. ”
“What a custom! ”
The tune looks at Inferno with an elongated expression.
The longevity rate was very young for the helpers. It just seemed like he was in his late teens, but he said he was 20 years old even if he died soon.
What was even more curious was that he was a enhancer.
I don't know who made this child into a reinforcer for whatever reason, but the senior citizenship has only been a kid for a few months since he started working for Helper.
“Then why do you keep following me around? What do the expedition people say? ”
“Just my brother's most curious. Other people don't have fun. Other people don't have fun. They're even weak. ”
“How do you know it's not funny, it's not weird, it's weak? ”
“Hehe, I just know. ”
“You don't look so normal yourself. ”
The more I talked to Soohyuk, the more I felt that he was definitely not normal.
Since then, Seohyuk continued to annoy Suhyuk. Suhyuk was annoyed, but thankful that he was the only one to take care of himself on this sloppy expedition.
Especially when I was watching the tune, I remembered when I was working so hard on the janitor that I wanted to do something to help.
When Seohyuk left because of work, he had peace again, but felt empty.
- Sir, I need to tell you something.
What is it? ’
- Actually, I've been wanting to tell you for a while now, but I don't feel so good about it, so I've been patient.
You don't feel good? Why? I haven't even entered the dungeon yet... Did Heilang show up? ’
- It's not like that.
Then what is it? ’
- Th... … The longevity that follows you these days is about Helper.
What about him? Is there a problem? ’
- Not exactly a problem, but it could be a problem. By the way, that longevity rate is not an ordinary child... Helper.
‘Obviously not ordinary. How can I be normal when I'm a reinforcer at such a young age? ’
- No, he's not a enhancer.
What are you talking about? ’
- I don't know if you think you're a reinforcer or not, but he's an awakener, not a reinforcer.
The Awakened or the Night? ’
- It's a little different from Knight. No, it looks similar... … It's so subtle that I can't tell the difference. But it's not yet fully Awakened, but it's definitely Awakening.
‘Phew……. ’
- What's most troubling is that he noticed that you were different from the other knights.
You noticed that? Is that even possible? '
- Maybe they don't know what's right. It's just...... that you have something completely different from knights, and it just feels so powerful. I thought if I felt more detail here, I could feel my existence, so I stayed silent on purpose.
"Oh, this is ridiculous. ’
- I'm a little embarrassed.
So, what do we do? Should we keep our distance? ’
- Judgment is your decision, but I felt a favor for you. Why not stay close and find out exactly what they're capable of?
Wouldn't it be dangerous? ’
- He has an unknown power, but has not yet awakened. It doesn't seem dangerous at the moment because we only have the physical capabilities of the enhanced human being.
‘Okay, let's wait a little bit longer. ’
Suhyuk nods at Yan's advice.
Zhang Seon Chan...... Thanks to the unknown boy, Soohyuk's mind became a little complicated.
When Soohyuk had no work, he always followed Soohyuk around.
If they had been mistaken, the other expeditions would have seen Soohyuk and Seongjeong and said that the brothers who had been lost seemed to have met each other.
But they didn't really care what other people said.
After hearing Yan's words, Seohyuk followed Soohyuk around for no reason. So they stayed together every day for a week preparing for the expedition.
The funny thing about human relationships is that when the distance between them was close to each other, the relationship between the two of them naturally had to be close in some way.
It was the opposite of being distant from one another.
After all, Soohyuk and Song are together every day, I had no choice but to become friends.
Of course, there was a little bit of distance for Suhyuk because there was a question that had not yet been solved, but it was also getting rid of that sense of distance as the tuning was going along with him.
“So the scale of the silver Anaconda can't be pierced by a normal shot? ”
“I guess so. His scales aren't nearly as tough as those of Desert Armored Crocodiles, but they're pretty tough. That's why I coat Titan's armor with his vinyl. That gives you a pretty strong defensive ability. ”
“Oh, I see. So the scales are pretty expensive, too? ”
“Yes, but not as much as Adamantium. Used birds are limited and not absolutely necessary. But how many dungeons are you up to this time? You have experience, don't you? ”
It was finally the day we entered the dungeon, but the atmosphere of the expedition was no different than a week ago. Master Jung Tae-kyun was very busy asking if he would oversee the dungeon attack, and the main process of taking care of the expedition on his behalf was too difficult as a leader, but he was okay with leading the expedition.
“Oh, this is my fourth dungeon. ”
“By the way, aren't you part of the Knights? You just signed a freelance contract? ”
“Helper brought me a dungeon raid a couple times before. ”
“Looks like you're settling in nicely, though. ”
“Heheh heh, I don't know about anything else, but I like the one I noticed. He was a good explorer, so he took me with him. ”
The Seeker was the most dangerous thing a Helper could do. In short, the Helper needed a Helper to do something dangerous for them. Of course, it could have been pure virtue, but when Soohyuk saw it, he needed a useful explorer rather than virtue.
“It's dangerous, so be careful. Let me know if you need any help. ”
“Yes! Thank you. Brother.”
He nods and smiles. Suhyuk looked at the bright smile and thought that he was a child that didn't match the dungeon. But anyway, the world with this smile was only inside that colony. At least as a dungeon hunter, I couldn't live with a smile like this.
* * * *
Unless it was raining like crazy every few hours for two days, the terrain of this dungeon was absolutely fine.
It was closer to the forest than the jungle, and there were few dangerous areas like swamps. It was annoying to climb a steep mountain, but the terrain within the dungeon was unusual.
The size itself was quite wide as a grade 5 dungeon. The main proceeding, which is a factor of the Redbird Knights, had excellent ‘search ability’, and was able to carry out the dungeon attack very quickly.
In the process, Suhyuk was loyal to his role, and through the shooting, he managed to organize numerous horses and monsters.
Seeing that he was so good at shooting, he changed his attitude toward Soohyuk even though he saw Soohyuk badly.
In particular, Suhyuk took care of the areas where he went to explore for the sake of playing explorer and took care of the magic and monsters. It was my own concern, but no one noticed this concern.
That was a week ago.
In the meantime, the Redbird Knights have eliminated numerous grade 4 monsters, four grade 3 monsters, and many other low-grade monsters and beasts.
If you look at the dungeon itself, it's roughly 30 percent. We haven't been able to locate the identity or realm of the dungeon boss yet, but we should be able to complete the dungeon clearance within a month if we proceed with this.
But…… as always, risk comes at an unpredictable time.
Like right now.
