Chapter 215

Chapter 215

After four hours of navigating the rugged mountains of Adamantine Mountain, the pioneering frontier began to come into view from a distance.

The fence was surrounded by dense forest and was barely enough to prevent wild animals, and it was a place with a large number of tents and only a few wooden buildings.

It was hard to even call this place a village, it had the atmosphere of a temporary space so it was more appropriate to call it a campsite.

Leeha sped up.

Now, if only he could find the NPC who knew the traces of the dark elves, he would be able to proceed with his quest.

“Perhaps....... Mana clairvoyance, Eagle’s Eye!”

There was only one route to the pioneering base.

While Leeha adjusted the magnification of the Eagle’s Eye, he looked closely from a distance. If by any chance there were assassins who have transformed into non-humans.

Perhaps, because they are leaving the vicinity of the Adamantine mountains, there were more trees and rocks around. Just like before, disguising as a tree could be enough. However, nothing particularly caught Leeha’s eye.

He just knew that there were more people than he expected on the frontier.

‘I’m glad... wait, Is that a monster?’

At the top of the trees surrounding the frontier, he could see a faint glow of mana lingering for a while before disappearing.

It was obscured by the branches and leaves, but from the distribution of mana, it was obviously close to a human form.

‘Is it the Midnight Circus......? It’s possible. This is a lawless area.’

There was no organization in charge of security. And if it was Midnight Circus, it’s an assassin group. As ‘chaotic users’ who are excluded from the city, it was rare to find a comfortable space for them. It would also be understandable as to why they roamed around the frontier.

Click-!

Leeha pulled the bolt, reloaded, and moved again. Not knowing what was going to happen now, Leeha folded the leather case and put it in his bag.

Leeha proceeded carefully and headed towards the entrance of Siande Frontier. The buzzing noises around him started to get louder and louder.

“Is there anyone who wants to practice dueling?! Looking for a summoning or taming users!”

“W......who wants to visit the unexplored C-A-7-? Please apply only if you have 130,000 HP!”

“Let’s loot around Minis! Is there anyone going to rob an NPC’s farmhouse? Let’s go together with the break the bandits quest”

“Selling random teleportation scrolls! If you’re lucky, you’ll get a lot of pioneering stats by getting dropped near unexplored areas~ Buy it quickly~”

It was a shout that was different from regular party hunting or business.

‘Is it because of the mood? It is strangely rough.’

There were no additional surprises until he entered the village. If this is the case, then it should be safe.

‘The Midnight Circus isn’t that persistent, are they? Compared to the Rising Sun or Tsar, it’s much better.’

Most importantly, Leeha knew that there was more than one target.

When Petyr died, the targets for assassination were Shin Nara, Biyemi, and Tale.

‘Maybe they sent assassins to the others too.’ That was a possibility. Moreover, if they were hiding on the road from Hell Anvil to Siand Frontier, it meant that they had investigated Leeha’s movements for more than one or two days.

He didn’t know where they came from, but their preparations were quite thorough.

Leeha opened the friends’ window and looked at the locations of the others.

It would be helpful if he let them know in advance that something happened. First, he went into one of the wooden buildings of the Siand Frontier to collect information from an NPC.

“’The One’ pub. I guess there wasn’t much competition in a place like this.”

Creaak-

After pushing the two swinging doors that opened at the height of his chest, Leeha already found people sitting around a table.

“Oh...”Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com

And sighed.

People jumped out of their seats with the sound of kudang-dang-dang. Besides, there were more than just one.

“Oh, is it Midnight Circus?”

“Haha, I thought they were here to perform- but they were actually here to catch someone!”

“Come on, audience! Isn’t hanging out with clowns a special experience? Uwahaha!”

“Those bastards didn’t even listen to me when I asked for a duel!”

Of course, they just watched.

“......Crazy.”

As he received the gaze of the people around him who did not have the heart to help, he could see for sure.

This place was the frontier for pioneering, the place farthest from the law and the closest to the fist.

Group PK or PVP was a common occurrence!

‘Fuck, I haven’t been able to save the location yet!’

The return scroll goes to the nearest town, so he wouldn’t end up here.

In other words, he had to use a random teleportation scroll to get out of here. Then he would have to walk another four hours from Hell Anvil.

Did it seem like Leeha had given up when he stood still?

The clowns, who had been running around without a break, slowly slowed their movements and began to surround Leeha. There were still six of them.

“Kuhihih, call Ringmaster-niim To secure an audience, we will show them a performance.”

“All right. Mr. Clown.”

The cheekbones of the clowns rose as if they were ascending to the sky. And Leeha, didn’t want them to see. He didn’t want to reveal it in a place like this.

“Right, it’s a trial version. These bastards. Delicate Hand Movement, Snipe-” Both of Leeha’s hands quickly went into his bag. Biting the gunpowder bag, he started loading two pistols.

“That’s not gonna work!”

Leeha waited for the moment the clowns jumped toward him.

“-Soul Link.”

Paaaaat-!

“Kihut?”

“Why are you celebrating already? Kuhahaha!” Red light radiated so much that it blinded the clowns.

“You’re toast, you bastard.”

To the clown with blinded eyes, Bang—! Leeha pulled the trigger and shouted.

“Kill all the bastards with powder on their faces, Kuma-ya!”

Kuooong—!

A fireball was fired at the assassin.

“Whoa, what is it? What did he summon?”

“A bear?”

“Wasn’t he a long ranged dealer?”

The five surviving assassins, as well as the eyes of the people nearby.
