“Don't worry, we won't see each other until the last day. ”

At the end of the speech, Miller left.

An officer who created a relationship before said he must have something to give as a gift.

He was busy moving on as planned.

‘Then let's go. ’

Around nightfall.

With Miller's word that there will be no fighting until tomorrow, Yoon-suk quietly leaves the barracks again.

Obtaining all the rewards you can get and completing the mission with the best conditions.

That was the goal of all challengers, including Miller, but not Yoon-suk.

Yoon-suk came here to dig into El's past.

So even if I had a little loss in compensation, I was thinking of putting that goal at the top of the list.

Tadadada.

Yoon-seok, who had left the military behind, ran through a blood-blooded plain in a single battle.

Go a long way across the horizon until the harsh mountains rise.

‘Do I have to search here.... ’

Within less than 10 minutes, Yoon-suk, who had studied the vast plains, stopped and looked forward.

The entrance to the mountain range.

If the information I got from the soldiers is correct, there's a Treshon Bridge stronghold somewhere in these mountains...

‘Let's go inside. ’

Yoon-suk moved his new brother into the mountains without hesitation.

The ground frowned as if it had come from a swamp. The sound of the wind blowing on the surrounding trees was grim for some reason, but it is not Yoon Seok who is afraid of such things now.

It's just...

"If you're unlucky, you won't find it until it's over. ’

As I spread my senses as widely as I could, I soon realized that I was digging through the mountains.

It's not like the Tribes don't march across the plains with troops this size.

The current situation is just the beginning.

With the plains in the middle, the pagans are holding back the advance of their enemies as best they can, and in the Trinity, they search their strongholds before leading hundreds of thousands of troops....

By the way, since it's been four months since we searched for this state of confrontation, there's a good chance it's hidden that deep.

‘Should I have left the Avatar then...? ’

I felt bad that I could search more broadly and quickly with wings.

Of course, using Mine sprouted wings, but it was inappropriate because of the time limit of 1 minute.

Regretting only one past thing is not in accordance with Yoon-suk's taste.

Yoon-suk quickly prepared a countermeasure.

‘Well, without wings, you have to run on your feet. ’

Of course, it was a little different from what normal people meant when they jumped on foot.

Tada.

Yoon-suk took a high leap into the sky.

Then he condensed the pulverizer into the air and used it as a stepping stone to spread it out like a long leg.

The nerves are dispersed because we had to manipulate the energy constantly, but a hundred times better than going through the mountains by ourselves.

Bam, bam!

Even after the sun had gone down, waves were rising at regular intervals in the mountains.

Until the next morning.

* * *

“Well done. ”

“No, my boss did all the hard work. Thanks to you, I'm alive and well. ”

Seven days have passed since the mission began.

This resulted in 10 skilled challengers returning to the tower after their mission, and in this world, their disappearance was simply dealt with as death.

“Hey, Miller. Why don't we have another drink later tonight? ”

“Yes, if he's still alive tonight. ”

“Hahaha! Don't get cocky. ”

During the past 7 days, much has changed while Yoon-suk has been searching for the stronghold every night.

The battle is still ongoing, but at least Miller's so-called 'Red Wolf’ mercenaries have undergone significant changes?

In the face of a meeting with Intermediate Officer Levuck Tsuliman, Miller made a connection with senior executives.

A group of challengers may have contributed steadily to the war, but what was most decisive was his accomplishment.

Two days ago, I received a medal, and even tomorrow I was scheduled to attend a sermon with the saint that was difficult to see.

‘Looks like they're settling in. ’

Yun Seok, who had completed two additional tasks in his last mission, was able to guess greatly.

I don't know, but Miller would have taken a substantial bounty on top of all the fame.

‘Compared to that, I'm still on the move. ’

I participated in the battle.

There was only one person there, and after that, Yoon-suk spent all his time wandering around the mountains.

Unexpectedly, Yoon-suk had already been accepted as a very unusual figure among the challengers.

“Are you leaving again? ”

After one more battle today, a challenger spoke to Yoon-suk in a car about to leave the barracks.

A fairy woman who chose the only difficulty level....

Unlike a vague impression, he was a wizard who dealt with the magic of a fearsome element of power.

“Yes, I'm sure there will be additional challenges out there. ”

Yoon-suk surrounded the excuses he had always done.

If you are a challenger, you have no choice but to let me go.

But today, this woman was also a little different from usual.

“You don't even know my name, do you? ”

“ ……. ”

Yoon-suk was hot when he stabbed the correct horse.

But I didn't really expect her to notice, and the woman stares blankly for a moment, then regains consciousness.

“My name is Siori Mobila. ”

“I'm Choi Yun-seok.”

“I know that. Pride is bad... Anyway, since we've left the skillful challengers and now we have fewer people, why don't we stay and talk properly today? ”

I felt no malice.

This woman, who was confirmed by the effects of the Judgment Blade in the first place, was much more prone to standing.

This conversation would also be a consideration for the seemingly uneven Yoonseok on her part.

But to put it bluntly, this kind of boating is just absurd.

“I'm not interested in intimacy. ”

Even if there was no point in investigating El.

I'm here on a mission. I'm not here to play.

Of course, I know there's teamwork.

One has to have similar levels to be meaningful.

After several battles, Yoon-suk realized.

The fact that all of these men will one day be incapable of completing the mission on their own.

“... Yes. Do what you want. ”

When Yoon-suk cut the line just right, he didn't repeat the same words anymore.

I felt offended without knowing where it was, but if I hadn't said this much, I would have kept bothering you.

Yoon-suk rather went to the mountain range feeling busy.

‘Let's really end this day. ’

I didn't have the income to do this for seven days.

I really searched everywhere, but I couldn't find any clues to the stronghold.

At this point, the rangers from the militia who come across the mountains and hunt pagans will be honored.

I decided to run the Yoon-seok method.

‘I've been thinking wrong. ’

It wasn't a place I could find in the first place.

Even the captured prisoners were teleported so thoroughly that they didn't know where their strongholds were.

To be honest, I wonder if there really is a home here now....

‘If you can't find it, you have to let yourself out. ’

Yun Seok first activated the Mandarin Warrior King to start popping stats. And I opened up the power to help him with his plans.

The judgment of the Monarch of Destruction is increased 10 times within the realm by the laws of the Maiden.

The basic range of the Lord of Destruction's judgment, coupled with its characteristic, is a 20-meter radius.

That was multiplied by ten times.

‘A 200m radius……. ’

Of course, this vast mountain range is only a fraction. But one mountain peak is enough to make it powder.

‘The Judgment of the Ruler of Doom. ’

Soon, the sky darkens, and the light of destruction shoots from the sky.

And when the flash of light subsided,

The mountain peak where Yoonseok was, disappeared, and instead, a huge sinkhole formed.

‘Maybe not here. ’

Yoon-suk went to the mountain peak on the other side without much emotion.

And then I did the same thing again.

‘The Judgment of the Ruler of Doom. ’

Although this technique was originally designed to last 40 minutes, Yoon-seok has a Nong Chang that allows you to use the technique that is waiting to be reused once every 10 minutes.

Kwak-Kwam-!

Once again, one mountain peak disappeared.

But...

Dwarf!

Maybe the hierarchy got out of place in two strikes.

I didn't mean to, but the whole mountain range started shaking like an earthquake.

It wasn't bad.

This should be enough for the purpose of digging through the grass to protrude the snake.

“ ……. ”

Unlike one would expect, the pagans and the horses didn't even snore.

Maybe the snakes that were hiding in the grass were so surprised that they curled up even deeper.

‘Or it wasn't home at all. ’

At this point, I think that the Trinity didn't know any wrong information at all....

Today, I decided to go to the end of the day, whether killed or eaten.

Yun-Seok wandered around the mountains using his technique every time he had time for reuse.

About five hours after that.

Uh, is this it? ’

A mountain in the night where darkness settled.

The eyes of Yoon-suk who repeated the same act without dryness reminded me of this.

Under the sinkhole where nothing should be.

There was a strange magical force sensed there.

Yoon-suk entered the sinkhole using the light of purification. And I finally found it.

A blue portal in a place that looks like an altar.

‘I think I found it. ’

* * *

"You have entered the Treshon Bridge Sanctuary.

Yikes.

As soon as I walked into the portal with a smile on my mouth, I remembered the phrase.

And I realized that I had come to the right place.

‘You deserve to be called a pagan. ’

Yoon-suk looked around.

The confined space resembled the Maze of Abysses, which we heard on our last expedition.

Like an underground dungeon?

The wall was lined with countless lit lanterns, but it was entirely dark.

In addition, the ceiling was high enough to be 40m, and in proportion to the wide passageway, strange murals were drawn.

Don't you know they're still here? ’

Yoon-suk walked out of the hallway that no one wanted to welcome. And they encountered a massive stone gate.

“Who are you? ”

In front of the stone gate, there was a man who looked like a gatekeeper.

Though he was cautious of Yoon-suk who appeared suddenly, he was embarrassed and politely asked for his identity.

I think he thinks he's a high up in the Church....

“Step aside.”

I could not use the misconception to simply move on to the conversation.

“Yi, this is a sacred place. If you can't confirm your identity……. No, I can get out of my way if I don't have my own order... ”

Screaming.

Yoon-suk didn't open his mouth twice.

I just swing my sword and split the stone door in two.

“Sting, intruder……. ”

Luck or bad luck.

The gatekeeper who was hit by the falling debris fainted, muttering. Yoon-suk did not pay much attention and entered beyond the stone gate.

And I found a girl.

"There is a special challenge within a 20m radius.

"Kill Elizabeth Rowen, the pagan witch.

I could tell even if it wasn't this phrase.

That little girl, bound all over by a thousand chains to the wall, is El.

“El……. ”

But it was different from the last mission.

It was not the appearance of a 10-year-old girl.

I think it's about 17, 18...

It is difficult to estimate the exact age of the fibula.

Yoon-suk gripped his teeth without even knowing it.

“W-who...? ”

Did he just wake up from the commotion?

El raises his head powerlessly.

At the same time, her eyes were revealed between her crimson head, coagulated with blood and sweat.

Yoon-suk stopped talking.

‘What is this……. ’

There are only terrible wounds that seem to have been cut by something.

There's no room for snow.

I heard from El the other day that she lost both of her eyes before her life.

But…….

"That's how young you were? ’

What the hell happened?

You said you were the final boss, a pagan princess.

Why did I have to be so miserable?

The sadness overlaps with the active appearance of childhood I saw in the last mission.

“This voice……. Is that you? You're back. I knew you'd come back. ”

I don't know who El is talking about.

It was only after hearing her voice that she relied heavily on and followed.

“H-help me. I want to get out of here... ”

El said that with a split voice.

Squeeze the last remaining strength of your body, like the last strap in the dark.

Screaming!

Yoon Seok cuts the chain that ties El together with his sword in one swoop, then carefully hugs the lost El.

"I have accepted Elizabeth Rowen's request for a hidden challenge.

"The contents of the mission will be changed.

"For the remainder of the day, escort Elizabeth Lorwen away from Treshon Bridge and the Trinity forces. Mission failed when escort target is dead.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

And tens of thousands of horsemen.

It means that both of these groups have turned into hostile relationships…….

‘Good.'

Yoon-suk smiled coldly.

Previously, it was still fresh, but now it seems to be a bit difficult.
