Chapter 18

Episode 18. Murder Street (5)

Factory District.

Valkar, the wolf-beast, put his nose on the floor.

sniff sniff.

A myriad of smells mixed in a dizzying mix.

A reverberation unique to the city. Players who have already passed, players who have died, the smell of players who are still alive and hiding somewhere.

The city was covered with the smell of countless players.

Paradoxically, there were so many smells mixed together that I couldn’t track other players on these smells alone.

Valkar had identified only one smell among many.

The smell of player Yoon Tae-yang.

“This way.”

The way Balkar was able to get Yoon Taeyang’s scent was simple.

They capture two players,

Yuric, a human wizard, and a tattooed shaman.

Valkar interrogated them and compared the reverberations left on their bodies to extract the smell of the sun.

Of course, both players died after spitting out the information.

Following the smell of the sun, we arrived at an empty factory.

“It’s a place where no one else is.”

“It’s time to farm hard.”

Muteh, the tiger beast, opened his mouth.

“scale. do you have that?”

“You mean the map?”

Muteh’s words were inaccurate, but Arin perfectly understood what he was saying.

Squeak.

Arin laid out the map on the large table.

The map was also to appear as a supply item in the Street of Murder stage.

Arin’s map was of a fairly high level, and even detailed structures were expressed.

Muteh looked at the map.

Buildings in the factory district.

The place they stopped by chasing the sun, the place unheard of.

“Balkar. Where does his smell lead to?”

“It is southeast of the current location.”

“Southeast.”

Mute’s eyes deepened.

“This guy is picking out factories and stopping by.”

“Oh, I heard and see.”

Although it is an area named as a factory district, of course, the factory district was not a district made up of only factories.

“That guy. It hasn’t been long since you came to this city. How do you know it only sounds like a factory?”

“Didn’t you come in after seeing it through the eyes?”

“There is no trace of going back for that. He moved with a clear goal.”

“I don’t know. Maybe you got a map while searching the building.”

Muteh looked at the map.

I don’t know the facts, but the data was accurate.

“He entered Sector B starting from the clock tower in the center of the city. I stopped at a non-factory structure only in Sector B for the first time. The next place we went was the factory set in the C sector. We went directly to Sector D and our current position is... ... .”

“Are there three factories left in Sector D?”

Muteh nodded at Arin’s words.

There were three possible destinations for Yoon Taeyang, the prey, to go next.

Balkar suggested.

“Tear apart and look for it.”

“Huh. You want to leave it to chance?”

One less player anyway.

Judging from their actions so far, there was no possibility that the group would exist.

The eyes of Valkar and Arin Mute flashed at the same time.

According to Yurik’s story, it seemed to be quite strong for a human.

In other words, it meant that there was a high possibility that it was a game that had enough taste to hunt.

Mute also nodded.

“It’s not bad entertainment.”

“Then you choose me first. i’m here I think it went right up.”

“Then I choose East.”

Muteh shrugged at Arin and Balkar’s quick choice.

“Am I not even able to choose?”

“The person who chooses first is said to be the owner.”

“Valkar is right. A diligent hunter greets an evening with a full stomach. you know?”

Joyful Arin and Balkar left first, followed by Moute.

to the plant of their choice.

Hoping that Yoon Taeyang would be there.

***

Turong.

The sound of the door closing echoed through the empty factory.

A factory that someone else had already run through.

The sun tasted it.

I thoroughly checked every corner of the factory, but unfortunately, there was no result.

“It’s bullshit here too. Where is next?”

– If you turn southwest from here, there will be another large factory.

“Southwest. southwest. Is it this way? eww. How many factories are left? I’m exhausted when I do it.”

The sun hid itself and quickly checked its surroundings.

I thought there were two more.

Didn’t see it right away.

It looks like you came in alone.

-Anyway, that was just... ... .

A glimpse of red light as the sun was hiding.

The tiger’s seal was clearly shining red.

-Are you looking at it wrong? It passed by so quickly...

– I returned the replay just in case. red match.

– The prey is a beast tribe;

-Is this okay?

– Everyone, take a seat!

– The picture comes out like this. Also Dantalian c.

Muteh, the tiger beast, looked around.

Soon, Moute’s gaze was fixed on a table.

Muteh laughed, tearing his bright yellow pupils vertically.

“You’re lucky.”

I could feel the shimmer of mana behind the table.

-Taeyang, this.

“I think we should play a round. situation.”

The sun’s expression was calm.

When he heard about the Beasts from Yurik, his mind was already ready.

If you don’t know what’s going to happen, assuming the worst is the most comfortable option.

Rather, it was a better situation than encountering all three beasts.

tadak.

The desk was smashed as the sun rolled forward.

Muteh, who found the prey, howled.

Aaaaaang!

The skin is tingling.

In the records of the old Joseon Dynasty, it was said that people who heard the roar of a tiger while taking a walk at night often appeared in silence, and Taeyang seemed to know the reason.

‘If it had been in real life, I might have done the same.’

Taeyang brushed off his thoughts and immediately stepped on the advance.

cooong.

Unprecedented energy rises from the soles of your feet.

The sun felt the movement of mana represented by electromagnetism and divinity.

The movement of power that started in the soles of the feet was amplified in the knees.

‘Don’t leak and follow me.’

The sun controlled the body and was also involved in the movement of mana.

Delicate control beyond simply gathering energy.

Mana broke at the hip joint and blazed around the body of the sun.

Soon, it gathered for a moment on the sharply twisted shoulder, then bounced out elastically.

The sun smiled white.

The sensation of magical energy passing through the body was more ecstatic than I thought.

Transcendent Jin-Gak – Fan Fist (旋風拳).

flash

In an instant, the son-in-law blinked, and

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!

Furniture inside the factory was smashed.

-? and Mr. what is it

-Look at the gorgeous effect. thief.

-Aren’t you behind in one room?

-I didn’t use some kind of magic. It’s Yun Taeyang’s skill painting, is this?

– Was Dantalian a game like this?

The roar of the beastman of the tiger echoed through the dust.

Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

The sun’s expression was distorted.

‘It didn’t fit.’

With Taeyang’s own sense, he succeeded in inserting mana between movements.

Mana management was second, so I didn’t know what was right, but it definitely improved beyond the first in terms of output.

However, a problem arose when he focused too much on ‘mana management’.

The movement itself became excessively heavy and dull.

To waste is a predestined procedure.

It wasn’t because the tiger’s hand was great, there was no way any enemy would fall for such a stupid attack.

“It’s difficult. This.”

The output definitely increased, but there were too many things to pay attention to during the operation process.

In reality, the game is decided in 0.1 second units.

The nerves between techniques were enough to take away practicality.

As the sun licked his lips, the rim broke through the dust and struck his forepaw.

An attack that comes in for an instant while the line of sight is blocked.

The sun reflexively raised its arms.

And immediately regretted it.

cooong.

what? Did I get hit by a dump truck?

Aaaaaaaang!

The sun that had been hit by the forefoot bounced off the guard.
