Episode 22
Upon entering the room, the smell of mold stung my nose. Reconnaissance crews were waiting in a place reminiscent of the military quarters of the past.
‘Ten people:
I sighed and looked at their faces.
Every time my gaze passes, the level window pops up abruptly above the unfamiliar faces.
’14 level. 15 levels. 14 levels… … : Most of them were at the same level. That was the moment when I moved on to the ninth person.
[Lv.22 Hyukmujin]
The numbers jumped up. Even a familiar face.
‘Hyuk Moo-jin?’
It is true that Hyuk Moo-jin, who quarreled with me when I first arrived at Jinga in Taewon a few days ago. When their eyes met, he raised an eyebrow at her.
“Nice to see you again. three. ball.
ruler.”
I stared at the hostile smile and said.
“From now on, call me Captain.”
“… … I don’t.”
He let go of Hyuk Moo-jin’s stinging gaze and looked at the 10th scout. The young man who had been smiling brightly since I first appeared stood up.
“Confucius, no captain! i look forward to.”
[Lv.13 One Leaf]
Due to the exhibition situation, it seems that the position has changed. The secretary of Baekhodang, whom we met earlier, said that the reconnaissance team itself was composed of warriors drawn from various places.
‘Because Hyukmujin originally belonged to Sumungak.’
I don’t know if that’s why, but the atmosphere in the room was chaotic.
The members of the crew were looking at me with expressions mixed with awkwardness among strangers, anxiety about war, and anticipation.
spoke for the first time
“This is Jin Tae-gyeong, who was appointed as the Baekhodang reconnaissance leader. He wishes you well.”
clap clap clap Someone’s lonely applause faded in just a few seconds, and Han-yeop lowered his hand with an embarrassed face.
It’s a tougher atmosphere than you think.
‘But this isn’t bad either.’
Now it is an exhibition situation. It’s better to keep the tension as it is now than to laugh at each other and promote friendship.
Of course, if it is too much, it becomes poison, and one of the things I do as a leader is to release it in an appropriate way.
‘That’s because I’m used to it.’
Newbie hunters who enter the gate for the first time are literally frozen. Practice is different from practice. The knowledge and training learned at the Hunter Training Center flies far into space and is overwhelmed by the primordial smell of death.
So, the veterans in the guild helped the rookies with mental care, and I was one of them.
‘Yeah, it was only for F-class, though.’
The level is also the same. From what I feel, Moorim’s second-class is at the level of going back and forth between E and F.
So, I became the party leader leading an F-level party of 10 people. I’m the party leader, so I’ve never tried it, but I’ve been watching until I get tired of what I have to do.
“I have combat experience. Behemoth.”
All members of the reconnaissance team raised their hands at the sudden statement. Everyone has a puzzled face.
“I went through more than 5 battles. Behemoth.”
Half of the hand is down. One of them was also included.
There are 5 people who have experienced 5 or more battles. This isn’t bad enough. No, it’s beyond expectations.
But the most important last question remains.
“I have a murder experience. Behemoth.”
Four hands going down helplessly. I looked at the only scout who still had his hand raised.
[Lv.22 Hyukmujin]
“How many did you kill?”
The guy snorted.
“five. It was during the bandit subjugation last year. One of them was a debt holder. He was a pretty strong guy… … he said without hearing more.
“good. From now on, you are the assistant manager.”
Hyuk Moo-jin, who was about to say something, closed his mouth.
“Deputy Chief?”
“uh. If you don’t like it, say it now?
Now that only beginners are gathered, the most important thing is the experienced.
Hyuk Moo-jin is the only one who can wield a weapon at the enemy without hesitation.
‘Black cat and white cat.’
Whether it’s a white cat, a black cat, or a cat that doesn’t care, as long as it catches mice well, it’s good.
Hyuk Moo-jin, who was deep in thought with a complicated face, answered.
“… … joy. It’s an order, so I can’t help it.”
It is difficult to say that I want to be assistant manager.
“Then Hyuk Moo-jin is the assistant manager. When I call you in the future, I will call you.”
“Day number? What else is that?”
“Number order. From now on, reconnaissance teams will be collectively referred to by numbers instead of names. Hyuk Moo-jin Lee Il Ho. then you sitting over there
okay. You are this number.”
from number one to number ten. I ended up pointing to each person.
Hyukmujin frowned.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Because this is convenient. A battle might break out today, so would you like to memorize your name all day?”
that.”
“Then do as you say. It is an order.”
I did not avoid Hyuk Moo-jin, who glared at me with a hard face.
Rather, there was a heart that expected him to come out as cheeky as he did back then. A battle could take place within a few days, but it would be difficult if it was the way it is now.
If you attack, you should tell them about the power gap. Surely.
“… … I will follow your orders.”
“What are you?”
“No. 1, No. 1.”
Hyukmujin’s voice trembled as he answered. He’s a guy with a better sense than you think. I don’t know if it’s because of the rumors about the sleepy dragon in Shanxi.
The important fact is that Hyuk Moo-jin has adapted to me.
I did not express myself and continued.
“What I am about to say may sound unfamiliar and strange. But bear with it, that’s better than being stabbed to death.
is not it?”
I didn’t show my dissatisfaction as openly as Hyuk Moo-jin, but the other scouts also looked at me with anxious expressions.
Except for one person.
“I will follow the captain’s words!”
Han Yeop exclaimed like a girl fan. The only difference is that I have a spear in my hand instead of an idol light stick… … .
‘ah. yes.’
I grinned at the scouts.
“Okay, use the sword yourself. Behemoth.”
The essence of party hunting. split the position
The raid method in reality has already been documented for a long time.
three tankers. dealer net. Two mages and a healer. This is the most ideal combination for a party of 10.
‘Of course there are no wizards or healers.’
We need to balance as much as possible with only tankers and dealers, but… … .
“… … No one knows how to use a shield?”
His voice trembled at the shocking result. Oh my God, only ten dealers. Even Ahom is the sword, and there is only one spear.
‘What a terrible single species this is.’
A hybrid is better. It’s because it’s a mix of things.
Hyuk Moo-jin said with an expression that there was something wrong.
“If you’re a man, you shouldn’t hold a sword.”
Seeing the other guys nodding their heads at those words, I couldn’t stop praying.
‘I’m very full. I’m very full.’
Put your head in a puddle of blood, that’s what they say.
knife? window? There is no such thing. Take a picture with a stone you accidentally caught, sprinkle dirt on it, climb on it, and bite it with your teeth… … .
In the line of death, what you hold in your hand is your weapon and your lifeline.
These guys, who have dealt with bandits at best, don’t know that yet.
‘Should I practice starting tomorrow?’
Not for them, but for my survival.
Even if you just teach the tricks, it will have a definite effect in a melee.
I rolled like a dog for 7 years and I can’t die because of newbies.’
It was time to think like that. Dang. Dang. Dang.
A large bell rang three times.
In this place where individuals do not know the exact time, a bell is struck at a specific time, and the three bells that just rang signaled that it was a miserly time (1 to 3 p.m.).
and… … .
“Prepare. It is the first outing.”
It was also a signal shot to announce the first mission of the reconnaissance team.
“You will be doing well.”
Qin Yuqing raised his head at Yu Peng’s unexpected words. He was staring blankly at the teacup that had just cooled down.
“What are you talking about?”
“Three Gongja.”
A full day had passed since Jin Tae-kyung’s reconnaissance team departed Jinga, Taewon. This mission was to reconnoiter the Hyeon-eup near Jinga in Taewon.
“We left around noon yesterday, so we’ll be there in two days.”
“ah. Tae-kyung.”
Qin Weiqing laughed out loud. It was a laugh that looked tired.
“What else do I say? It is not.”
“Isn’t it?”
“How long are you going to treat me like a child? Now he is a proud man too.
You will do well.”
“… … I doubt my ears.”
“In the meantime, I have been covering a lot. I was very young then.”
“I agree with you to some extent.
It has changed a lot in just a few days.”
“Because heroes grow through adversity.”
“Anyway, I’m done with the maknae now. Now I can focus on my family a little more.”
“Get some rest. You look hard.”
“Wuppin. The family members of the main family are dead.”
A voice brimming with sadness and determination made Yu Peng shut his mouth, and Qin Wei Qing resumed his work.
However, the silence was broken in just an instant.
“That… … A black dot in the sky that is getting closer and closer. Jeon Seo-eung, who spread his huge wings and landed on the window of the office, was Hao-mun’s.
Jin Wi-gyeong, who hurriedly got up from his seat, opened the barrel fixed at Jeon Seo-woong’s ankle. The moment I opened the letter, the letters written like grains caught my eye.
[One kill, one kill, Jo Pil, and 20 members of the detached unit. Appearance of Zhengyang Dingyang.]
“Jeongyang… … Honju if you cross Jeongyang. Beyond Honju is Taewon. No matter how detached they may be, I never thought they would cover hundreds of li in a few days.
And that’s not all.
There are family members of the branch who have not yet returned to their home. What if they’re tracking them down?
‘It’s urgent. ,
It didn’t take long for Qin Yuqing to make a decision.
“Right now select fifty samurai and go to Jeongyang. One kill is a brutal master of climax. The family members of the main family..”
I remembered the children. The little limbs, the painfully distorted face and those empty eyes. Qin Wei-gyeong gritted it.
“Bring the family to safety.”
“Lord.”
Wipin’s expression hardened. Qin Yuqing, as if possessed by something, stared blankly at his face before opening his mouth.
“Taekyung. Where did Taekyung say he went?”
A choked voice came out.
“… … This is Jeongyang.”
