Episode 639: The night of the male dragon wielding a Chinese sword

.

On days when the baby moon turns red, all dragon species receive a buff.

Low-level guys only get a little harder and stronger, but the higher levels are the problem.

‘They can become people who transcend species.’

The higher the object, the more wild it becomes and the stronger it becomes, but there are also those who turn into monsters that completely exceed the standards.

What happens in the process of going back to the origin of a species and returning to the beginning.

In other words, it becomes stronger in the process of becoming similar to the First Monster.

So what about the first monsters that are close to the beginning?

‘It could turn into an unknown monster.’

In normal cases, there was no need to worry.

In the first place, the First Monster cannot come out unless it is a special case.

The red moon doesn’t exist in every world.

The problem was that the First Monsters were also out now, and Adela also said that this was the first time something like this had happened.

It was a variable created by a tangle of coincidence and inevitability.

“It’s the first monster, but what you need to be most wary of is the Dragon Mountain Range in the center.”

Adela, who was folding her arms and crumpling her face, spoke softly.

It may be lumped into words as the night of the dragon, but if you look at its essence, it is this.

When the dragon goes crazy, other dragon species are also affected.

In modern times, it would be similar to when the boss makes a fuss and the employees under him suffer and struggle.

‘It’s not normal for people called dragons, but they are affected.’

How will things proceed?

They even called it the Dragon Mountains. The same goes for the number of dragons Adela has caught.

This meant that there wouldn’t be just one, so we had to keep in mind that in the worst case scenario, a horde of dragons would attack.

When I first arrived here, I took the risk and tried to use this time to put pressure on the south or east.

“I guess it won’t work out the way I first planned.”

“We have to withdraw the existing operation. “There is no need to insist as long as the situation is wrong.”

I can’t do that now.

I agree with Adela.

There are more than one or two problems.

From parasitic species to ancient monsters to the red moon, who is willing to give a damn?

“I’m glad we made peace with Gallias.”

The owner of Southern Geass Fortress.

I was worried because he looked a bit odd, but in the end, we formed a temporary alliance.

Aid was also sent to the West. I’ve already prepared a defense line to some extent, so it won’t fall easily, but…

“Food is still a problem.”

Yes.

After talking with Gallias, the parasite species had already spread throughout the continent.

It is particularly severe in the West, but there are parasitic species in the East as well as the South.

It was obvious. The appearance of the First Monster meant that the parasite species in the host body had hatched.

Something big hadn’t happened yet, so this place wasn’t safe either.

“We can’t stay in the South. “The North also needs to prepare.”

Although it remains in the south for negotiations with Gallias, its main base is in the north.

In the end, I had to go back and prepare for the Night of the Dragon.

“You go first. “I have more work to do.”

Of course, that is the responsibility of Adela, the lord of Margon Fortress.

There is no need to rush around.

‘If you just get caught up in the flow, there is no answer. ‘You have to hit it.’

If it were a good trend, things would be different, but we cannot give ourselves over to a flow that leads to destruction and destruction.

It’s simple if you just look at the key points without getting distracted by the trivial details.

“In the end, ancient monsters and dragons are what’s important.”

Since you’re in the South, you have to figure it out.

Location of special gates. The western side is also gathering information to estimate its location.

“Please replace out where the Ancient Monster is in the West. “I’ll check out the ones in the South.”

“Well, that would be better. i get it. “I’ll put Mirva next to you.”

“Me too?”

“Kkueh.”

Mirva, who was picking out the wyvern’s fur outside, hugged the wyvern and trembled.

Why is that wyvern hugging me?

When it comes to monsters, do you understand what people are saying or are you just quick-witted?

He smiled and waved his hand.

“are you okay. “It’s easier to do this job alone.”

“If you say it that way, I can’t help it. “I have no choice but to move with Seongju!”

“Que! Kueheh!”

Is it really that good?

Even if you follow Adella to the north, you’ll have a lot of trouble.

As parasitic species have spread to the southern part, it will not be any different in the northern part.

Last time, we prevented it from spreading inside the castle, but I didn’t know that there would be parasitic species and first monsters scattered throughout the northern field.

‘Perhaps there are also subordinates of the guy who deals with parasitic species other than dragon species.’

This hasn’t been discovered yet, so I can’t be sure.

I shrugged my shoulders.

“Then the direction has been decided. Take it.”

Adela throws something at me.

I looked and saw that it was a bird statue made of jade stone.

It looks simple, but the finish is neat.

It was clear that the artifact contained a subtle magical power inside.

“It’s an artifact from all over the world. “If there’s a problem, let it go.”

“Is there such a thing as a communication bead?”

“I can’t use it here. “It was blocked by the system.”

Ah, for some reason, everyone said they would send dispatches or write letters, but they were blocked.

but. If communication had been smooth, someone would have already unified the continent.

It appears that systematic measures were taken to appropriately adjust the difficulty level and maintain a balance between forces.

“Let’s use this well.”

It would be nice if I didn’t have to use it as much as possible, but there’s no harm in taking it.

Well, now that we’re ready, let’s get moving.

There are approximately 10 days left until the baby moon turns red.

On the 11th night, the night of the dragon comes.

Find out the location of the special gate within it.

And…

‘I guess I should visit the Dragon Mountains at least once.’

This is also something you need to pay attention to.

The places I haven’t been to yet are the central Dragon Mountains and the eastern region, starting with Sinemon Fortress.

You should also check this place.

I think I’ll be busy for a while.

* * *

Although he seemed sloppy on the outside and had a personality that was lacking in real life, Gallias did not become the owner of the fortress simply through force.

“He also made some preparations.”

“Yes.”

Each region has its own characteristics.

Even though the destroyed West is over, the North is barren and the average skill of the troops is the highest.

The eastern part was home to the largest number of dragons and dragon species, as there were mountain ranges extending from the Dragon Mountains.

The south was affluent with a lot of food and had the largest population.

Having so many mouths to feed and so much to eat seemed good at first glance, but in other words, it also meant that if the balance was broken, various problems would arise.

‘The dragon species monsters from the eastern part come down in search of food, and when food becomes scarce due to the parasitic species, people become troubled.’

I thought it was somehow strange.

Even though a lot of people died during the monster wave, they didn’t show much, so it seems like they were intentionally controlling the population.

Why control the population?

“It means that there is already a problem with food.”

“Okay. “Okay.”

As proof, when I asked him for information about the special gate, he came out quite kindly.

Although he pretended not to, Gallias was also searching for that location.

The reason we initially hesitated to provide support to the West was because we felt burdened about sending food there.

I thought he was a simple and thoughtless guy, but he turns out to be quite sneaky.

Still, whatever.

“It’s good for me to have a guide like this.”

The place where I am sitting is the carriage.

While carriages were usually pulled by horses, this was different.

Because it was a carriage led by a sand drake that looked like a large lizard.

It was a horse carriage, in fact, it was closer to a carriage attached to a dragon servant operated by a dragon knight.

“The locations where the first monsters appear are different, so it is actually not easy to replace the location of the special gate.”

“I guess so. “It’s not because they came out of the gate, but because parasitic species hatched.”

“yes. “There is no other way but to search the entire area.”

I nodded at the Dragon Knight’s words.

At least in the west, it was possible to trace back starting from the collapsed fortress, but there is no way to know anything here.

Since it was someone else who was moving the parasite in the first place, it cannot be inferred from the movement of the infected object.

“Especially recently, his movements have been strange.”

“The movements are strange? “I guess there was something different from usual?”

Nod.

The Dragon Knight nods.

I don’t know if he’s talkative or if the castle lord ordered him to reveal as much information as possible, but he’s telling a lot of useful stories.

“Before, we ran wild without any proper direction, but now it’s a little different.”

According to his explanation, the first monsters and other dragon species that were moving freely ran towards the south and north at once.

It was as if they had received some kind of order, and as a result of observation, there were no people heading east.

Moreover, they said that those who appeared to be infected objects all headed towards the center.

“That’s strange.”

I also couldn’t help but frown.

They headed north? I think the reason is probably because of me and Adela.

Didn’t Adela say that? He said he had a conversation with the leader of the parasitic species. I thought it was a show of force against him.

The most important thing is.

‘At first I thought the infected object was moving east, but now I see it’s heading towards the center.’

This was the part.

Dragon Mountains.

The red moon is gradually rising.

These guys, no way.

‘Is what you’re really aiming for a dragon?!’

I suddenly came to my senses.

if so. If what they are really after is a dragon….

“Everything is explained.”

All the things that I thought were strange until now have been sorted out.

Why did the guy who deals with parasitic species ask Adela for an alliance?

It’s easier to move infected objects to the Dragon Mountains if we don’t interfere.

Why are the polyps in the south running rampant and heading south and north?

That way, our attention will be focused in that direction.

Yes.

Their final target is the center.

The target is a dragon.

And on the night of the dragon….

‘Even dragons are swayed by their wildness and cannot come to their senses.’

Normally there would be no problem, but in that condition, it could cause infection.

That may be the reason why infectious agents have been consistently sent to the center.

In the worst case, this means that the dragon could fall into their hands.

-Oooooh!

As soon as I finished thinking, I activated the Jeomseo-gu artifact that Adela gave me.

A bird made of jade flapping its wings.

“Tell Adela. What they’re after is a dragon. “We have to stop it.”

It was a short sentence, but Adela would understand.

I gritted my teeth.

Two days have already passed since I set out to replace the special gate in the south.

Should I turn around or replace the special gate and move on?

There is no guarantee that you will replace it within the deadline.

No, does it make sense that in the meantime, only the eastern ones are okay?

“Karl!”

“Whoa! calm down!”

Timing that thoughts continue.

Suddenly the carriage shook and the sand drake howled.

The voice of a monster felt at the same time.

-Quaang!

As I kicked the carriage and went outside, I saw Yongjong rampaging in the distance.

It’s not just polyps. Even the first monsters were screaming in groups.

“Ugh! “I’ve barely escaped from the eastern part, but now they’re flocking to me like this! It’s so great!”

Some crazy guy was wielding a large Chinese sword and a spear.

“Atta, the ingredients are fresh and delicious!”

The problem is that the face is familiar.

That’s that guy.

“Jaekyung Park?”

He was the guy who ran Helldying Kitchen with me.
