Chapter 34

34. Belloto Mountain Range 4

“Rare Monster?”

“I am sure.”

A strangely increased Veloto spread. Adventurers with no news.

“The only thing that can explain this whole situation is the rare monster.”

From the circumstances, it seems that a rare monster from Belloto Sangae has appeared. If you use [Sense of Superiority], which summons and controls monsters of the same kind, you can lead a large amount of Veloto spread.

“Then the reason the other adventurers are not coming back is...

”

[space domination]. A skill that creates a mini dungeon by distorting the surrounding space. You cannot get out of [Space Control] unless you defeat the rare monster.

“It seems everyone is trapped in a dungeon.”

Right now, adventurers must be wandering in the dungeons of Veloto Mountain.

“This is outrageous. Belloto Sanga uses a special poison.”

Kim Ho-jung looked at the patient next to him and said. He murmured with a despairing face.

“I am the only one who came back alive from that chaos...”

He is the only adventurer who escaped from the forest before being caught up in [Space Control]. The person who escaped was also poisoned by the Veloto mountain dog, so it goes without saying about the other adventurers’ condition.

“Actually, it’s no different from having Hill sealed.”

If you use a heal to heal your wounds, your paralyzed body will rot.

“Due to the nature of Veloto’s spread, the toxicity can be removed if it takes some time.”

“The problem is... it’s hard to pass the time. You can’t run outside.”

Being trapped inside the dungeon, it was impossible to escape and kill time. Then, the answer is that you have no choice but to hold on with your remaining stamina...

“That’s right. On top of that, [A sense of intimidation] will be used.”

[Intimidation], one of the skills of rare monsters. Since the target’s damage is increased, the stamina and magic consumption are much faster.

“I can’t use heal, the damage increases, it’s impossible to escape, and the poison spreads through my body.”

From an adventurer’s point of view, could there be a more terrifying situation than this? Once Hill is sealed, there is no Hell.

“I can only hope that everyone has a wind potion.”

If you have a wind potion, you can remove the poison from Belloto’s spread. Then you can use heel, so things will be much better.

‘There are probably more people without it.’

As I always say, the pockets of adventurers are narrow. You won’t be able to afford to carry a wind potion.

“What if everyone really died?”

“That won’t be it. There must be many people alive.”

In the mountains after the sun goes down, monsters that are stronger and more dangerous than those of Veloto Mountain appear.

“The adventurers who went out at this time are the participants aiming for a late-night sweep.”

That’s how talented they are. It must be because I was unlucky enough to be caught by a rare monster.

“Then what are you going to do now?”

“There is nothing to worry about.”

Kang Seung-hyun stood up from his seat.

“You came here to do something anyway.”

“As expected, that’s how Mr. Kang is!”

rare monster. He’s a pretty strong and tough guy, but he’s worth dealing with.

‘You can get one artifact as a bonus... more than anything.’

Kang Seung-hyun remembered the hard work he had while fighting the rare rat.

‘A healer who doesn’t listen and has useless party members and a mentality like toilet paper.’

After going through a hellish party, I feel hopeful no matter what I do.

‘Because I have a decent colleague this time.’

Two dimension movers brought as point slaves, not common adventurers of the Azul continent. Rare monsters could easily be caught.

“We know the weakness of Velotto’s spread, so let’s prepare the items first.”

A set of potions for defeating rare monsters.

An air potion for attacking Bellotto’s spread.

That’s all you need to prepare now.

“Are you missing anything?”

“Let’s go.”

The two bought supplies at the camp tent and headed for the north exit of the camp.

– It was really dark in the mountains at midnight. Away from the camp, there was no light to be found.

“In Korea, I could even see the lights of the surrounding city buildings... but this place is truly dead after sunset.”

Kim Ho-jung took out a lamp from his inventory. If you put it in your inventory while lighting it, you can use it without lighting it.

“It’s better.”

“really?”

“no.”

Thanks to the lamp, the field of vision was only slightly secured. It was still dark and dark all around.

“If I had a fire attribute or light attribute skill, I wouldn’t have needed a lamp.”

“People say they come to the fantasy world and throw fireballs and thunderbolts, but what are we?”

“Just a point slave.”

After curing the poison of Belloto Sanga, he healed the remaining wounds himself.

“You were a healer.”

“So I was able to escape alone. Because I was able to recover my stamina.”

Even if the wound cannot be healed due to the poison, the reduced physical strength can be filled.

Keitel ran away while recovering his physical strength, but was eventually caught up by Velos Sangae.

“Instead, they couldn’t even help other people... It was like an endless maze no matter how strangely you go.”

“It’s because of the rare monsters.”

“Rare monster? Damn, somehow...!”

No matter how much I ran, I couldn’t see a single light from the camp!

Keitel screamed, running wild.

“Where are the other adventurers?”

“That way. There’s a bunch of Belloto dogs over there... I ran away from there.”

The place Keitel pointed to was a narrow path. There are probably rare monsters there.

“We are going to rescue the others. I won’t ask you to follow me.”

Anyway, a normal healer won’t help in the battle against Veloto Sangae. You don’t have to take it.

“If we find the wounded, we will send them here, so treat them.”

Instead, you can heal other injured people. I decided to leave the job to Keitel.

“all right. My comrades will be inside too... Please, please!”

Kang Seung-hyun lit Keitel’s lamp. This will make it easier for the wounded to spot Keitel.

“This way, Mr. Kang! this way!”

Kim Ho-jeong, who entered the trail first, called Kang Seung-hyun. After chasing Kim Ho-jung, they were able to find the fallen adventurers.

“Uh... uh... it hurts...”

“...”

“Please help... someone... please...”

There were adventurers who were motionless, but there were many adventurers who were still alive. .

“These people are still breathing!”

Kim Ho-jeong looked at the people and said.

“But why didn’t you finish it?”

“It is not that it is not finished. I will leave it alone until I die.”

Not to mercifully stop breathing, but to die slowly in pain.

In fact, many adventurers were dying abandoned in the forest. If they hadn’t come to rescue them now, they would have been found as cold bodies.

“The only ones who do this... are the ones who take life lightly.”

“You think life is fun?”

“The ones who died and came back are usually like that.”

I don’t think it’s a situation where I can leisurely watch people. Seunghyun Kang ran forward and pulled the trigger.

‘I’m a bit crazy, but I can’t help it.’

[Fria’s bond pouch]

[Generates wind potion arrows.]

Papabababak!!

Kang Seung-hyun fired arrows at everything he could see. It is better to shoot wind arrows at random than to separate corpses from people one by one.

“You crazy man!”

One of the adventurers hit by the arrow screamed,

“...doesn’t it hurt?”

“It’s like an antidote.”

Knowing it wasn’t painful, I blinked my eyes.

“Anyone who has been hit by an arrow should go outside and look for a light.”

“There is a healer named Keitel! If you feel better, let’s help others too!”

“I see!”

Three or four adventurers who could move their bodies escaped the trail.

‘Let’s leave the rest to those people.’

There is no time to help each one. First aid was provided, so you have to take care of the rest.

“Sir Kang! Over there...”

As Kang Seung-hyeon came out of the trail, a more devastating scene unfolded before his eyes. There were a lot of dead bodies piled up in the forest.

Not only the corpses of animals, but also those that appeared to be human were mixed in. Among them were corpses that had become white bones.

“That’s strange... don’t Belloto dogs prefer live prey?”

“Usually, though.”

Most of the carnivorous monsters in the Veloto Mountains prefer fresh meat. They don’t pile bodies up like that.

“There are some guys who don’t cover rotten meat and eat well, right?”

A viciousness that deliberately causes the captured humans to die slowly rather than instantly. A habit that does not cover even rotten meat.

“Kreurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....”

A huge Velotto dog appeared on top of the piled up corpses. Its body was rotting in places, revealing bones, and evil black magic and a stench emanated from it.

“Those who died once and then came back to life.”

He was an undead, commonly referred to as a reanimated corpse.
