Episode 78
“Starry Plain? “He is a man with a rare greed for relics.”
Holt led the elite Hellhounds in pursuit. Minimum level 200 Hellhound with a level comparable to that of most mid-sized guilds.
To ordinary users, it was a scarier target than a large guild. Red eyes are a symbol of evil people who practice reckless PK. The party who saw the hellhound quickly took out the return order form.
“Damn it, I just finished hunting down a mob!”
“Stop being greedy and use it quickly. “If you get caught by those bastards, you won’t even be able to recover.”
“You damn bastards!”
Ssssss! The knight, who was in tears, activated the return spell. In an instant, the party fled. Holt looked at that and laughed as if it was funny.
“Kkeke, they’re just boring people here and there.”
Level 302. Occupation Destroyer.
A destroyer who destroys everything at random!
Holt was a professional whose fighting skills were second to none. Since Holt was at the highest level and even led his own guild, it was natural for users to run wild.
Holt adjusted his gauntlets.
‘Still, I have a feeling I’ll be competing against a decent guy for the first time in a while. This guy has the guts to play solo in the Starry Plains, so we shouldn’t let down our guard here either.’
In the Stargazing Plain, formidable monsters of level 250 to 300 appear. However, thanks to the power of starlight full of negative energy, most of them were much stronger than their level.
Holt and Hellhound soon arrived at Stargazing Plain.
Holt narrowed his eyes and scanned the plain.
“The tracking technology was discovered here. “If I hadn’t used teleportation, I wouldn’t have been able to leave this plain yet… Everyone, open your eyes and look!”
“yes!”
The Hellhound Guild members responded with enthusiasm and began searching the Starry Plains. Among them, Wanson, who was the only one who opened his mouth, whispered to Holt.
“You probably won’t find it. Didn’t I tell you this last time? He’s the one that beat my tracking skills by even teleporting after him. “I’m sure they’re using some strange technique…”
Holt swallowed softly.
Frankly, Wanson was right. Because Wanson had more knowledge than Holt when it came to the chase. But Holt was still feeling it.
‘Otherwise, I can’t explain this shaking fist.’
Grrrr!
Holt’s fists always trembled before a big battle. It means that it senses a fight and craves destruction.
Money is money, but Holt used PK to satisfy this fist’s desire. Holt was a natural fighter.
“Hehe, I don’t see any suspicious guys!”
“Same goes for me.”
“Okay, thank you for your hard work.”
Has X already left here?
Holt tried to calm his vibrating fist. I felt like I had to calm down this fist by beating the monsters in the Starry Plain.
“Here today…”
It was the moment when he was trying to direct autonomous actions. A vast amount of mana stirred across the Starry Plain. Mass teleportation! The corners of Holt’s mouth quirked up.
“Prepare for battle.”
Has X noticed the chase and brought reinforcements?
It was a possibility worth considering. X always acted alone on TV, but it makes no sense for him to have no colleagues.
It was impossible for such a strong person to even have his own power. If you don’t have power in the first place, you can’t become that strong. Holt muttered as he saw them getting closer.
“X, you were really shaking for once.”
How the strong recognize the strong.
Holt realized that the people he was approaching were not ordinary bettors. There seemed to be at least five or six people who were at the X level.
Soon, starlight appeared as if pouring down on the Stargazing Plain. The two sides that had been shrouded in darkness were revealed.
The first to react were Holt and Hellhound.
Holt’s brow furrowed suddenly.
“…Explorer? “Were you guys in the same group as X?”
Powerful people who appeared out of nowhere in the Starry Plain!
They were the Explorer Guild, known as explorers and the best rookies in Fate. Asus, the leader of Explorer, tilted his head.
“X? Oh, did the X that you mutts were tracking come to the Starry Plain? I don’t know about you, but X is a pretty tough competitor. But where did X go? “I want to at least foster friendships among fellow Mage streamers.”
Asus responded with a sly smile, but he was also embarrassed.
Asus’ job was a hidden class legendary explorer.
He had the skill ‘Treasure String’ that allowed him to instinctively track objects that were set as treasures.
Of course, it is not omnipotent, and you have to invest effort and time to trace the thin string.
‘Are you saying X was chasing that dragon too?’
The red hatchling dragon that destroyed them!
Asus set Dragon as a treasure even though it was burning with breath. And from that day, I started tracking the dragon.
It was a really hard day. As soon as the thread appears, it disappears and continues to a strange remote area. Still, I didn’t give up and pursued it persistently, and I was just about to catch up.
But what is X and what are the mutts doing?
The reason was unknown.
But both guilds could guess what was about to happen.
“Asus, are you talking about my fist?”
Hellhounds are an inherently warlike group. There was no way I would just let go of the Explorer I met while already missing the X.
Dudeuk! As Holt released his fists, the Hellhound elite began preparing for battle.
“It would be suitable for a warm-up. Because of you guys, I’ve already become aware of using back alley information. “It’s also an opportunity to score points for X.”
X knows something about dragons.
So, he came to the Starry Plain.
In that short period of time, Asus made its own decision. And it was decided that this battle could be fought for both personal grudges and personal gain.
As Asus took out a fancy magnifying glass, the Explorer guild members also began preparing for battle.
‘It doesn’t happen often, so I’ll leave the broadcast on.’
Asus turned on the broadcast.
Asus wasn’t scared by Hellhound. That’s right, Explorer is a rookie guild that’s just as good as the big guilds. Even though Hellhounds were notorious, there was no reason to be afraid of them.
‘Fame is just an illusion. ‘I’ll give it to you.’
It was the same for Holt.
Holt is a natural fighter with destructive power. Even if there was a difference in overall power, there was no reason to back down. Because he could win if he could serve 10 people.
Before the storm.
Calmness came to the plains illuminated by starlight.
“…!!”
“…?!”
“…What is that again?”
Goooooh.
What broke the silence that day was none other than the light of the portal!
A portal appeared in the empty Starry Plain, and a red mass appeared there. Asus’ face turned bright red when he saw the red lump.
“I found this little dragon!!”
“…De Dragon? “That’s a dragon?”
On the contrary, Holt could not keep up with the situation. That’s because unlike the Explorer, which chased the dragon in the first place, the Hellhound only saw the X and ran towards it. But Holt’s judgment was good.
“…We are the first to catch a dragon in Fate.”
A dragon bigger than X!
It would have been the icing on the cake if I had gotten the X, but for now, the dragon is enough. No, the boat is profitable. Of course, Explorer’s eyes were wide open, but Holt didn’t care.
“It’s up to you to catch it first!”
“That’s ridiculous! Do you think you will hand it over easily?”
Hellhound. Explorer. And even Yongyong!
The three-way battle in the Stargazing Plain has begun.
Yongyong looked around and sighed.
“Kyuuu. “Kyuuu.”
Things that aren’t that big of a deal are annoying.
Honestly, from Yongyong’s point of view, these guys were at a level that could be easily ignored.
But everything is for the weak master. Soon, Yongyong spit out a Dragon Fear full of life.
“!!!”
An overwhelming life!
In an instant, everyone who was running towards each other froze. Users with relatively low levels fainted and fell to the floor. Asus broke into a cold sweat and smiled.
“…Why does it seem like your stomach is stronger than last time?”
*
“For some reason you are thinking of leaving me…”
A hidden place in the Starry Plain.
X muttered while examining the ruins of the ancient kingdom underground. Did you like the stars that seemed to pour down? Since Yongyong was whining so much and wanted to leave, I was about to send him out of the ruins first.
“Are you already in puberty?”
I suddenly got goosebumps. If Yongyong were to rebel now, no matter how good he was, he wouldn’t be able to handle it. X shook off the ominous thoughts and moved forward.
‘Unlike Zurpia, it’s a ruin with nothing special.’
It seemed to be the site of an ancient kingdom where agriculture was developed to suit the wide plains. After all, eating well and living well is the best. X, who was examining the mural depicting everyday life, nodded.
‘I don’t think a land like this would be bad, right?’
The dream of a large landowner who runs tenant farmers!
Unlike Zurpiana and Cossant Island, the site of Stargazing Plain was very large. If the ancient kingdoms we had seen before were only city-sized, this place could be called a country. Thanks to this, quite a few ghosts appeared.
“This is the 40th time!”
Sssss.
X clenched his fists when he saw the scattered spirits.
[You have defeated the ‘Noble of the Ancient Kingdom’ for the first time in Fate World!]
[Your reputation increases by 300 points!]
[Your level has risen!]
[Your level has risen!]
“Let’s see….”
The last Vengeful Spirit After defeating X, he looked around. I searched with my eyes open to see if there was any treasure, but I couldn’t see anything special. X shrugged his shoulders.
‘I’m going to stop by one more time anyway.’
X planned to look around the ancient kingdom site that he had marked before using the forgotten seal. Since this place was also one of the candidates, it was okay to postpone the full-scale search until later. X headed to the portal leading out.
“Anyway, I’m curious.”
Why on earth did Yongyong want to go outside?
The old saying goes that there is no end to worrying about your children. X strongly sympathized with those words.
Shush!
X, who was thinking deeply, came out to the Starry Plain. And I was horrified.
“Hey Yongyong, what were you doing?!”
“Kyuu? “Kyuuu….”
The earth is on fire!
What had happened was that the vast Plain of Stargazing was burning brightly.
The perfect combination of the pouring Milky Way and the burning plains created a spectacular sight, but that wasn’t the important thing.
What on earth happened to start a fire on this scale? X glanced at Yongyong slightly.
“You Yongyong. “You have to be honest about what happened.”
“Kyuuuu….”
“No, there’s no use trying to be cute.”
X spoke firmly and looked at the burning plains.
The fire spread at an alarming rate due to the strong winds. Fortunately, there were no users around.
‘Still, it’s my first accident.’
Would you like to see it at least once?
X raised his palm.
“Sea God’s Judgment!”
Kuoooo! A huge tsunami appeared out of nowhere and covered the Burning Stargazing Plain.
The fire that was burning the earth was extinguished in an instant. Soon, X held Yongyong’s face with both hands and spoke.
“Hey guy, I guess I’ll have to hear your excuse now, right?”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
