Reincarnator
< 12. Red Zone (4) >
Gains and losses
One body was wrapped in two colors.
At the same time, a red rune constantly breathes its magic into the Dragon Horse Ball and wraps around it.
'Good. You've got to do this.'
Otherwise, it's a pity that you suffered in the Triple Tube.
The reward for two coffins is a rune.
Kill all the constantly rushing monsters and hold them off until you reach the Red Rune.
However, in a way, this is just a preparation process for the three tubes.
If the first tube is prepared for the one who found the last dungeon, the third tube is a gateway for the truly qualified person.
The three coffins in front of the number that reached the red rune.
< Deal with the strongest of them all. >
We have to deal with hundreds of them alone.
Even the ones that have passed so far appear to be implemented at the red rune level once experienced by the Investigator.
The one who appeared in front of such a small number of eyes.
Dragon
The dragon is the most well-balanced being.
Different from humans, different in birth and different in intensity.
Those who were born as such and choose the path of the Devil, the most twisted of all.
That strength is inexplicable.
I once saw Hansoo go deep into the Abyss.
And when we saw him on the road to the Crystal, we invested another three years to choose a way back through the realms of the two dominant species.
I wasn't sure I could win.
It seemed better to deal with two dominant species than to deal with him.
I was really surprised when such a creature appeared in three coffins.
I didn't think it would be implemented if I could remember what I saw in the past.
'I almost fainted.'
If the same red rune is different, its strength will change dimensions.
Even though he was only 0.01% of the red runes, Hansoo had to fight his way through life.
Skill that came out of a struggle after killing him.
Dragon Horse Mask
In fact, this name is just a random name.
Zero numbering is literally in people's imaginations.
The numbering series is ranked among the most remarkable things humans have ever discovered.
Of course, there were people who thought,
< What if we didn't find something better than the numbering series? >
I decided to call it zero-numbering.
And Hansoo thought that the skills he had acquired this time were qualified enough.
'It's amazing.'
The rune counts in your body are racing like crazy.
Hansoo calculates the effects of the poison burning on his body, nodding and grabbing the cursed survivor's neck and pulling out his neck.
Coudeux
The mermaid's shape was separated by the survivor's vertebrae.
'Seven. Good.'
Hansoo covered it with the energy of the Dragon Horse Ball and scattered it everywhere.
Glug-ug
Bone fragments of an enormous scale cut through the sea of venom and stuck on the necks of mermaid-like creatures that were punching hard into the bottom of the boat.
<!!!!!! >
I couldn't quite figure out what they were screaming about in the water, but I felt their fury.
He starts racing toward Hansoo with a madness.
Hansoo avoided his trident and swung his hand and crushed his wrist.
Coudeux
<!!! >
He missed the trident screaming.
Hansoo held the trident with his right hand and threw its head straight through the chassis.
Then I twisted my body and pulled out the trident that was stuck in their necks, and I pulled out the neck bones that were attached to them again and scattered them everywhere like memorizers.
<.... >
All the mermaids who saw it were flawed.
Twelve out of the thirty killed in a short while.
Moreover, the attack was gradually intensifying from the top, and the piercing work was impenetrable because of the knives swinging from the inside.
If we go on like this, we will all be slaughtered before it sinks.
<... >
They look at each other, then retrieve the trident as it is, and begin to quickly return somewhere.
'Hmm. Trident. It's worth it.'
Their weapons are so durable that they won't rust even with this poison.
When it comes into contact with air, the durability will gradually decrease, but it will be useful for about three days.
Hansoo took all eight sinking tridents and swam to the bottom of the boat they had pierced.
Then the water quickly escaped into a hole that was leaking iron.
Shhhhh!
"Strike the neck! I'm in!"
chin
"Huh. Let's check and swing."
"... Huh?"
The bastards who attacked the trident piercing the bottom of their boat with restless pores suddenly popped out of the hole, swinging their swords reflexively and looked surprised to see that they were human.
Hansoo once removed the poison from his feet and approached the bottom of the boat.
Hansoo starts swinging his hand at the Arun Tree.
Coudeux
A few panels with wooden shapes were created, although they were somewhat clumsy.
Hansoo put it on the floor and blocked the leaking hole.
Even though it was blocked by a wooden plank, the hole was quite large, so the poison still leaked outward.
Hansoo makes a vending machine and starts hammering the remaining piece of Arun Tree into a rough nail and pressing it down with his fingers.
The material of the ship was also not hard enough, but it was not impenetrable to a sharp piece of Arun wood.
After some soldering is complete, Hansoo squeezes a bag of kelk mucus onto it and begins to heal.
"... hurry! Let's do it!"
"Dammit. How did that get in so easily?" It's stuck! "
When people saw Hansoo doing, they took the burinake material and began to nail the leaky sole like Hansoo.
I couldn't hold it down like a hand, but I hammered the weapon I was holding and hit it from a distance, so I was able to hold the plank to some degree.
Then he began to squeeze out the slime pouch.
"Damn... that's bitter."
"Give me some recovery skills. By the way, what should I do with that water..."
I stared at the poison that people had stuck to the floor with a grumpy look on their faces.
Hansoo said, going up.
"Just leave it and it evaporates. If we stay in here, we'll get that vapor. Let's go up."
It doesn't matter if the wind washes off from the top, but holding it in a confined space for a long time will affect your health.
"Ugh."
At that point, people started heading towards the burinake deck.
No one wants to breathe poison vapor.
Hansoo comes up and takes a deep breath.
'I had a little stamina... but this is good.'
Above, there were people staring into the sea with a cautious look.
Fifty new riders and a hundred existing ones stared into the sea, and when they were judged to have completely retreated, they raised their heads and now began to look at each other.
Then Hansoo smiled and said.
"Don't fight there. Look outside. You can have a good look."
"...?"
After saying that, Hansoo looks at the giant tree that looks far, far away.
A tree that slowly begins to appear beyond the horizon, beyond the red areas they are aiming for.
I literally saw a twisted stump of twisted wood, rising through the clouds, muttering to myself.
'The number of dead worlds.'
The background of the World Water Mountains they will be active in, and the tree underlying them.
At that time, I heard a great shout from the one who was watching the highest ground.
"I can see the ground! I see the red zone!"
"What?"
The people ran to the burinake deck.
Then he looked happy.
"You're here already?"
Johann also vomited a joyful voice.
You see the land rising from the sea far away.
'Dammit. I don't know what's coming, but it's better than this damn ocean.'
It was better to fight than to fight, but I felt stressed out because I thought about dealing with those who were hurting their tridents in the sea.
When the ship sinks, it can't do anything about it. It's a massacre.
'Of course, people should live on the ground.'
As they sighed in relief, the ship unfortunately betrayed their expectations.
"... Huh?"
"He's not getting off there."
The ship continues to sail through the sea, circling the land in front of the fairy's eyes.
And everyone who saw it was disappointed.
"... not on land, but on an island."
It looked like land, but it wasn't the end.
'... Somehow. Said it would take three days.'
Seeing the vast ocean unfolding behind the island, people vomited out disappointed sighs.
But at that time John was looking at something else.
'... Are those roots, not soil?'
It was covered in dirt but appeared like a wooden lantern from all over the giant island.
It feels like a part of a giant root is spreading out over the water and thin soil is covering it.
It just looks like an island because it's the size of an ellipse.
John looked tired of seeing it.
'... are those the roots of a tree from far away? It stretches all the way out here?'
The tree roots that were partly submerged in the water looked similar to the giant tree stumps that were supporting the sky, which looked far away.
"Well... if it's that big..."
Looking at what it looked like, the area that was exposed on the water now looked like the roots of a tree.
However, even though it was that size of a tree, I wanted to give it this much.
"Is this what a good view looks like?"
John, who was looking at the island overboard one day, trembled and asked.
It was definitely not easy to see anywhere else.
You don't have enough roots to root the mountain range, so you can't see the huge trees that are exposed to the sea even when they wake up dead in the modern world.
But Hansoo shakes his head and points far away.
"That's the highlight."
"What?"
He looked at the direction Hansoo was pointing.
Somewhere slightly different from the direction they're heading in the red zone.
When people raised their eyes and looked carefully, I began to see something.
'... Is that thing even alive?'
Something much bigger than a tree stump that I had mistaken for an island.
The tree roots that looked like islands were huge, but something far away was literally different in size.
It still looked so far away that it got in their sights.
I had no idea how big the part that was locked down was, but the back that just sprayed up on the water was much bigger than the busy island, and the fins that were floating up on it felt like I was looking at some ceiling cliff.
A gigantic fin gradually makes its way through the currents to the island they passed by.
It is said to be a little bit, but it was so big that it narrowed the distance to the island in no time at all.
Then something with a giant fin opened its mouth, screaming.
Kuaaaaaaaa
"Whoa! Whoa!"
"Holy shit!"
I moved a little, but the whole sea shook.
And the living creatures literally began to devour the roots of the trees that passed by them.
Powder, Wood, Powder.
"Ahhhh!"
"Hold on to your belly!"
As the roots that passed under the boat were pulled out by his mouth, his stomach waved like waves.
If it had been a small ship, the waves would have destroyed it all at once.
If they had come a little later, they would have died.
Hansoo also looks nervous as people grab the boat and use his strength.
I said it was a good one, but it's never cute.
Ships that start at 10,000 tutorial points rest on one of thousands of roots split from the dead world's water according to a set path set by fairies.
The only place left to live in the Sea of Poison is on the dead roots.
And the structures that people from the tutorial go up from there.
It's literally the size of a mountain range, even if it's rooted.
That's why.
And he's swimming in a sea of giant venom, constantly eating as the root of the world grows.
Mandarin Fish
The fish of destruction.
The indigenous inhabitants of the world that used to be the background of the red zone, Elvenheim.
One of the five disasters that killed Mado Genetics Crystal, which they developed to protect their species from the harsh natural environment, the Great Race.
The world in which the world was wiped out by the five plagues was turned into hell, and Elvenheim was wiped out.
The rooted trees can't live properly.
It has the ability to eat everything, but it eats everything at once, so it eats the roots of the world water metallurgically as if it were farming.
A giant mutation, like being born to kill the world's water.
I also saw the self of the past clearly.
He ate all three roots next to the arrival point in the Red Zone in a few days.
Of course, there's no need to tell me what happened to the new recruits and the next year's people.
As Hansoo resolved his mind to see the gigantic goat that helped destroy the whole world, he turned his head toward the direction where the whole root-chewed herd slowly moved.
'Now I'll have to pay for my meal.'
Glug-ug-ub
The boat begins to turn roughly in the direction of one hand.
Now that he's fully fed, he'll move slowly towards the roots of the next tree to feed him.
Not just a snack like that, but with roots as big as land.
Two weeks...? I don't know, but I can't afford it. '
We need to get ready to kill him first.
That's one of the missions you've been given.
< Remember, the world water must be restored. >
"Hey... hey! What the hell are you doing?"
"Hey, hey, hey!"
People start screaming, looking at the direction of the ship and the direction of the giant monster just now.
Are you out of your mind? '
If we were lucky enough to find him in advance, he'd be headed in the same direction as the rest of us.
In the meantime, John said to Hansoo,
"I don't know what you're thinking, but shouldn't everyone agree and go somewhere dangerous? I appreciate the ride, but once we're in the same boat, we'll have to listen to our opinions."
Hansoo nods.
"Some people certainly disagree."
"Yes. I mean..."
"I'll let you down now."
"?"
"I must go there. What can I do? Put your hands in the air."
Hansoo looked at the surrounding sea and said.
