“That’s the ‘squid’.”
“You mean Youngblood’s eldest brother caught him?”
“They said they were hiding in the sea, making themselves invisible!”
Lee Ha was looking around, chasing NPCs who had come to the prison.
A forest made up of trees so large that they seemed like a barrier, and the village in the middle was in a strange state of balance with the trees.
100m tall old trees that do not let in moonlight or starlight, and the village is built to make full use of those old trees.
The small houses built on the ground and in the air almost looked like ‘ant caves’ in the forest.
That wasn’t all. Are you talking about child NPCs who glance at themselves even as they are being dragged out of prison again?
Lee Ha felt strange seeing the red goats revealing all of this as it is.
They made a preemptive attack and acted hostilely, growling, but in some way, would you say they were sloppy or kind?
‘Anyway, it’s good news. I guess this is what paying respect meant.’
There is no way a complete disposition has already been made. I also know that there is no way to completely accept the members of the New World expedition.
However, there is room to have a conversation at least once. Lee Ha was happy that there was still a chance to persuade him.
“Big....”
“Red Goat! Shut up! This is the residence of the tribe’s guardian deity! “This is not the place for something like a squid to open its mouth!”
“Yes, yep!”
Lee Ha felt like he was going to laugh as he watched the NPC reacting violently to a single exclamation. The whimpering momentum was scary, so it was just as sloppy!
‘Tribal guardian? Just take the hint~ and give it to them. I guess this is where the village’s chieftain or something is located. ‘Good, it will be easier if you talk to a high-ranking person from the beginning.’
I even heard about it from the kids on the way.
Hereafter, the name of the red goat that remembered its own scent is Youngblood, and its title is probably ‘big brother’. Unless, indeed, they are all brothers and sisters.
Although the size of the village could not be fully measured, it never exceeded 500 people.
It would not be a low position to be called ‘eldest brother’ in this remote, primitive village.
‘Maybe that person is the chief.’
Below, I climbed the stairs that went around a huge wooden pillar.
Even though it seems like a goat would be able to climb up with its strange sharp hooves, was the staircase installed for a humanoid?
It was inevitable that I felt more mystery and curiosity than anxiety. It was a kind of disciplined courage.
For Lee Ha, who crossed the Sea of Dawn and saw the huge world called ‘Yonggung’, it was thought that nothing more scary would come out for a while.
The Red Goat NPC then covered Leeha’s eyes with an eyepatch and led him to the door.
“Red Goat! “I brought you the squid, the leader of all squid!”
Kiyi.... The door opened automatically. What I feel is the resonance of the blowing wind and the sound of footsteps.
Jeopuk, Jeopuk, Jeopuk. Below, you can clearly see that the inside is also quite large.
“great job. “Let him sit there.”
“Red Goat!”
It wouldn’t be at the level of an ancient. Below’s guess was that he might be similar to the Platinum Dragon Bahamut in terms of ‘age’ alone.
‘It is said that he has lived through a similar period of time as the Demon King’s Fragment – Hmm, looking at what he says, I can’t tell which side he is on.’
Is it like a spirit being that has lived for a long time with a neutral attitude? Lee Ha just nodded while listening to Ibex.
“Okay, what brought you across that sea? Tell me. “Why did the human who made Youngblood say ‘there is a great squid’ come here?”
“Hmm... You said you saw the demonic hordes running away here, so you probably know to some extent. “We, the humans on the other continent, have had two bloody battles with the pieces of the Demon King.”
Lee Ha looked into the ibex’s eyes and carefully opened his mouth.
If these goats and these things called Paleo are part of the devil, they will die the moment they open their mouths. I couldn’t judge it to be 100% yet.
“Um, um. I guess so. so? “Did you bother to cross that sea to wipe out the remnants?”
The ibex’s ‘back’ shook. Below, I could see that this was the same behavior as a normal creature tilting its head.
“no. We came here chasing someone. “To prevent a third blood clot.”
“Is there anyone worth it? Les, Pirot-Kokri, and Gibbrid must still be asleep. The last time we met, we barely managed to stop the energetic Paleos from running away. “There’s nothing they can’t beat because they’re devastated, but they’re annoying if you mess with them.”
Lee Ha was rather embarrassed to see the demon king’s sculptures treated like old neighborhood gangster friends.
However, I was able to feel confident. There is no way that the beast(?) that talks like this is on the devil’s side.
Leeha looked the ibex in the eyes and slowly told the truth.
“no. Bluebeard, Les, has awakened. And they came here from a continent across the sea. “We were chasing him.”
“what!?”
“Red Goat! Yes, you guy! “What kind of nonsense did you say to your guardian god?”
When the ibex was startled, the Paleos standing behind Leeha immediately thrust their spears at him.
Just as Jelapong was trying to block the quick attack, Ibex shouted first.
“stop! Stop, my children. “I’m just a little surprised, so don’t be hasty.”
“Red Goat!”
Lee Ha was a little embarrassed to see the Paleo people retreating.
‘Should I say it’s a spirit thing...? Anyway, he is a tribal guardian deity who has endured an enormous amount of time, and he seems to rule like a tribal leader himself.’
I can’t shake off the feeling that it’s sloppy.
As Leeha was thinking about the ibex, the eyes on the giant goat’s back were closed.
“After Le woke up, you came here...? Okay, so – no, if that’s the case, then it’s worth it. Because Le is the one who pollutes and corrupts the beasts—”
“That’s right. Le left our continent and came here, polluting the water spirits in the Dragon Palace deep in the sea. If we don’t find him quickly, danger could come to Ibex and Paleo.”
Lee Ha added, carefully interrupting Ibex’s muttering. The goat did not react particularly after hearing that.
Should I give a little more ‘keywords’? Lee Ha opened his mouth again with the Ibex in front of him, lost in thought.
“But Les, our power alone is not enough to find and destroy Bluebeard. Therefore... I would like to make a suggestion to Ibex. “If you would provide us with land to build a tower that can connect our continent to Mana, and if you would guarantee the safety of that tower!”
gulp.
“We will be able to bring humans from the continent across the sea here and exorcise all the pieces of the Demon King. “Before Bluebeard woke Gibrid and Pyroth-Kokri.”
Lee Ha said with strength in his voice.
