Gizgerai approaches, snatching a box full of two larvae.

Her hot gaze stares at the rattling creature in the box.

She sighs a little as she looks at the inside, not just the outside of the caterpillar.

“Khh... This will be fun, right? ”

"Fun"?

I felt her erythema in her strong hair.

My mouth was torn long enough to reach my ears, and a white beep appeared.

The bony hand was already pressing down on one caterpillar's head.

The larvae twitch their thick, muscular necks, as if she would eat them, but the necromancer chuckles and crashes its head to the ground. A bunch of green slime fell deeply upon the playful finger.

“Oh, cheer up. You're so fearless. I think it's in the middle of something.”

That's how they react to larvae.

‘I knew there was a peculiar taste. ’

Don't tell me I didn't like it that way.

I sense anxiety.

Curious eyes turn towards Asia.

“What are these guys? ”

He swallowed and replied.

“A worm that eats itself. ”

“Like?”

“It is not yet complete, but the insect I showed you is able to eat and follow not just the appearance, but also the habits and memories. Continued research

The more it goes on, the more likely it will be. ”

“Heheh... Great... ”

Gizgerai smiles joyfully and asks a question.

“How did you come up with this? ”

I was wondering the same thing.

Being on the same side as making caterpillars was the first time in the world.

Ghost Chief of Internal Affairs.

Shea Usnore, called the imperial second sharp shadow, replied.

“Azura's top players have been working on their development for a long time. War now.

I'm in a hurry because it's done. Now that we have a new brotherhood, we'll need Garvera to establish our livelihood quickly. ”

Of course, the lord opposes the war.

Turn a lord who actively does not commandeer supplies and troops into a caterpillar.

Everything is perfectly imperial.

“Garvera...? ”

The Chief of Internal Affairs explains the questions in Rubia.

“The dead bodies of those who think they died because they were small were eaten by the vines. You build endlessly.

He raises them, he devours them all. ”

“Oh my……. ”

“In order to think of themselves as bigger and ‘more’, they copy the faces of the things they eat and plant them in their heads. It's only possible when I'm at least 100 years old. ”

“Is that what happened? ”

The story of Rubia, who read the whole book, is beyond comprehension.

It must be very rare.

‘Maybe, it's hidden.... ’

Shea nods.

“Stayed a long time... I studied the giant Garvera, who was worshiped as a god by mountain tribes, thanks to his unprecedented cunning and strength. The occupants focused on the ability to ‘copy’ their faces, and nearly 10,000 humans were sacrificed to gain that fruit. ”

By saying, "Fruit," the Chief of Internal Affairs pointed to the larvae in the iron box with his hands.

I felt a vague aversion to the wizards' madness in her description.

10,000 humans would not have died peacefully.

“That Garvera... in the imperial slander...

Is it being bred? ”

It was a sudden speech.

You get fired.

Dark, virtuous vines.

A place where black and sticky shadows were solidified and broken plazas.

< two, four, eight, fourteen…. Garvera's borders are drawn one by one every 10 years. He's lived 140 years. And I implanted all sorts of stuff.

Nannau's words are gone now.

Exploration and independence in strange places.

I suddenly remembered how extraordinary she was.

The loss of not seeing each other again kept floating in my heart.

Shea looks at me with her red eyes wide open.

“Perfect guess……. But I don't know for sure. I'm guessing just like you. All I know is that Duke Laurence is the son of a bitch who planned to capture it and study it in the first place. More than that, he blocked the intel. ”

Necromancers interject as if they can't take it anymore.

“What do you do with a sole? ”

“The sorcerer carved inside tells me who will obey the caterpillar. You can control the caterpillar if you show me the symbol the tower owners gave you. ”

You see something with a silver Horse Emblem on its side. Caterpillars tighten their heads as soon as a light burst.

The red mark on the larvae 'eyes seems to match the Horse Emblem.

However, Necromancer's expression was not very bright.

“Are there only one such markings? ”

“Not a lot... but... ”

“More than one? ”

“I'm reminded of at least five. ”

“Then you can lose control at any time. ”

Xiao nodded.

“Especially the duc or the passengers involved in this production will have far more authority than I do. They think they can control it from afar. So these caterpillars are sealed or trying to kill... ”

Indeed.

Maybe the order to eat rubia was brainwashed in the first place.

If you leave the caterpillars alone, they will likely crawl to Rubia while she's asleep, staggering in the middle of the night.

I was about to nod next to him as a natural idea.

The necromancer hangs up.

“If that's the case, I'll take it from here. ”

“What... are you thinking? ”

I intervened.

“I have one idea… two…. No, I think too much. I need to run some tests right now. If he was raised in Garvera, that means he's a plant after all, right? When I hear this,

I have a friend I'd really like. ”

Gizgerai looks at the caterpillars with very lovely eyes.

Lena shakes her head as she looks at the insects writhing in dark green slime. Xia asks if you want to turn it into a zombie, but the Necromancer smiles happily and does not reply.

“Gis is an interesting person. What else is on your mind? ”

I wonder who.

Rubia was also calling the necromancer by her affection like a nun, but no one felt unnatural about it.

* * *

Ten days later.

Daglac!

I ran underground.

Gizgerai has been a Red Flake member of the Empire in the meantime.

You contacted the auctioneer in Dalian and uncovered some absurd information.

Pa!

Information that could drive her crazy under the underground roads she's pioneered.

‘It's worth it. ’

I learned the location of the growing Garvera.

A wild beast that has yet to be discovered by the hunters.

‘I said he was just born... Already. ’

I was amazed at Red Flake's intelligence for constantly updating the location of strange objects.

Dallac!

< I need Garvera.

It reminds me of what Necromancer said.

I stopped him from going there myself.

I don't want her preparing for agriculture in the basement.

Judging that I'd rather move without doing anything other than powering up my magic.

The Necromancer's magical powers don't matter if it's time to travel.

‘By the way... What are they doing with Garvera?' ’

The sooner we get back, the sooner we'll know.

I keep running, looking at the milestones of the subway.

Location now located on the map.

Sus

S •

‘That's about it.'

Activate the hidden machine according to the method you taught us.

Kugu Palace

Moonlight.

You see a small hole drilled through a row of long ladders.

Unlike the nightshade that was stuck everywhere, it is a light that floats in the air.

Push the gaped ceiling from the end of the ladder to open it.

Cold air pours down.

Then I saw a white frost embedded in the slightly open stone ceiling.

A deep forest just ahead of the passageway.

I looked at the perfume barrel Gizgerai gave me.

Epeta Leaf and Brerash Berry.

Even if Garvera is at the end of the forest, he can still smell it.

Once the perfume barrel was in my hands, I walked into the forest.

I quietly walked through the frozen forest and turned my gaze.

There were no signs of lumbering or campfire to see if humans were not coming in.

But without any tension, I continued into the darkness of the forest.

< The body of a vine moves three times faster in the forest.

On the frozen floor.

You see the dead animals hanging from the frozen trees.

There were bodies everywhere.

Only the tender and chewy parts of the corpse remained everywhere.

Beautiful floating stars gleam at the torn belly and cut throat.

‘It's about time. ’

Again.

You open the perfume bottle from the necromancer and spray it slowly from the tip of your head.

The white frost spread like green water.

I walked slowly to get him to my position.

At some point.

I could feel the path slipping apart.

Or dig a few steps in front of the one you were supposed to take.

Something intertwined from an invisible angle.

It's as if the whole forest is the size of an entity.

You will feel hostile and you will be terrified.

Dallac.

I just stood there.

‘Garvera... It's no big deal, right? ’

I could feel him moving around in the trees.

I was confident that no matter where and whenever I attacked, I would win.

You may be killing in the dark, but you can expand your territory and just freeze it or burn it with lightning.

It's just a fun party to watch.

You hear frosts on the floor as you hear them on the ground, a series of sounds like a brief vibration of air.

At the same time, black vines quickly surround me from all sides.

My body was tied up without a knife, and the perfume Gizgerai gave me fell to the floor.

When the vines reached out and picked up the bottle of perfume

I climbed up.

Glug glug... Glug...

And then, like a big fly head, he chewed the bottle of nostalgia.

His mouth was still filled with the blood of animals in the forest.

‘What an appetite. ’

Now that you're out, the situation is over.

But...

Glug?

“Ah... The vines are a little tough.... ”

Pull it out at once with your strength.

I tried to cut down the whole vine in the direction it came from.

A dozen layers of virtuous vines won't rip off easily.

“This... is not it... ”

S S I Suit

A gigantic centipede's mouth overhead.

Happens.

Of course I do.

You can't be like this.

"Fried?"

However, we can't let all the surrounding space be destroyed by lightning.

< Please bring as little damage as possible.

< So that it helps research. Are you asking me not to go in person?

A vivid message from Gizgerai.

Kuaak!

You dodge the giant mouth that closes just above.

Tsk…….

Mucus falling into the shoulders.

“This bastard……. ”

[Activates Tentacle Control Lv.3!]

Glug!

A tentacle planted by a necromancer reaches out and stabs him in the mouth.

Cough!

‘Down… only below…. ’

Deploy inventory space like a forest floor occupied by vines.

‘Freeze.’

Bloop.

0 degrees.

The moment Garbara felt frozen vines.

‘Freeze.’

The top is frozen again.

Add it here and then get to me.

‘I'm not sure I want to adjust it so delicately……. ’

[Activate Freeze Lv.5!]

Sharp ice pickings rise from the floor.

[Piercing/wedge properties are utilized.]

The long ice pickings pierce through the vines.

When Garvera is surprised and empowered, dozens of layers of vines snap apart like rotten grass.

‘The sword.’

Seogbae!

It was much easier to use a knife for a subtle attack.

The dead trees burst out in blue light as you swing your sword along the direction of the vines.

Everything that supported Garbara's bloodshed is gone.

Light!

He swiftly slapped the body to hide back in the forest with a knife, and swiftly slapped the one who was trying to get away.

I stepped on it and fixed it.

Then I punched him in the jaw with the back of a knife.

Glug glug!

The body, about two meters long, struggled, but once again, the vines did not return.

“Phew... ”

Lena started dragging him out of the forest with a chain of hump iron.

‘There you go.'

I was too careless.

Either way, we managed to capture it without damaging it.

I thought, cleaning up Garvera's fried blood.

Should I put it in my inventory? ’

But maybe he'll start a riot there.

The principles within the inventory are still unknown.

Maybe.

Ashton's books, which he uses every regression, may be damaged.

Chew on the worst case.

Or tear it all apart.

There may be blood splattered on the treasure.

‘I'd better quit. ’

Phew!

I grabbed the one who was constantly rebelling to stay out of the woods.

“Let's see……. ”

He froze as soon as I shut him out of my area.

“I can't even move my feet. ”

If it's not the devil's salary, it seems to work.

If we seal it off with this.

Humanity's swordsmanship is worth a try.

Maybe.

The power to consider such a scenario may have already been exceeded.

* * *

It's been two days since I walked underground with Garvera.

‘Said he'd be here by now. ’

The meeting with Gizgerai was different from the starting point.

A huge space for thousands of people.

The Necromancer has developed a secret passageway that extends like a spider web beneath the Erast into its own realm.

The underground fortress is once again erected.

This is a place where enemies can attack from below at any time.

‘Is this it?’

The Necromancer who organizes the research tools on the other side of the meeting point.

I saw him.

For some reason.

Along with the twenty ghost zombies that were killed in Erastor.

“Huh? Here he is! ”

I smiled brightly at the mouth of Gizgerai who saw me.

“But my hair...! ”

“It's nothing. Habits when researching. ”

Gizgerai had two kinds of hair tied together.

I just tied my hair back, but I felt like I was in touch with reality.

And...

Bloop.

A new presence appeared behind her.

Fresh-haired down.

Spinning glasses.

I feel like I'm becoming something else, beyond just the dimension of high power.

“Who... is this? ”

“He's a member of the Assassination Society I specially brought with me. Dr. Seolzi.”

“Doctor… yeahh…? ”

Something was wrong with him.

“He's the best plant authority to talk to plants. He's a great guy to study Garvera with a sample of caterpillars. ”

“Hello... hello...? ”

A small voice like a stammer of broken interfaces.

A clear greeting.

But...

She hasn't looked at me since the beginning.

I realized that and swallowed a horse.

Who did you say hello to? ’

“Half price… whoa…. Are you... attracted to the perfume I made...? Stupid... 7 years old...? Ah-ha-ha... ”

I was surprised when I saw the grimace and moved aside.

Glug. Glug glug.

Garvera makes a small noise.

“That's right...? I was tied up and suffering...? Oh, right... If you stay with me... You'll be happy... You will blossom in your potential.... ”

Khuru ru ru!

“Hahaha... I can't run away... Idiot... Idiot... Ahahaha. ”

Dr. Seol took one more step for me.

No, I approached Garvera.

I took seven steps aside and stuck to the wall.

Maybe.

You'd better not interfere.

You really think he's part of the Red Flake?
