Episode 122. I tried to sneak in
“Hurry up and get it over with!”
As Franco shouted, his colleagues began attacking Karen with even more force.
Karen immediately went into a defensive stance.
Kaga River!
Karen blocked one attack after another, but had no choice but to step back.
Not only was he frantic from the constant attacks, but his mana was blocked, making it even more difficult to block.
‘Tsk… !’
Karen gritted her teeth as the pain felt like her grip was about to explode.
In fact, against these opponents, it was possible to defend and counterattack at the same time as long as you could utilize mana. This was the conclusion Karen reached after mixing swords so far.
However, no matter how hard I tried to raise my mana, the mana in my body did not budge.
‘shit! What kind of ridiculous skill is this… !’
Kang-!
Karen distorted her face and blocked the attack again. Karen’s face gradually turned an earthy color.
For hunters, mana cannot be used.
That was because it was like saying that the current situation cannot be reversed.

thud!
The huge body of the last remaining hybrid monster fell to the ground with a heavy sound.
Only then did Kim Jin-seong put down his sword. Afterwards, he shook off the blood and checked the number of corpses.
‘A total of six. Just by looking at this, it looks like a very large monster.’
The Twin Head Ogre that I had seen on the island so far was also a large monster.
However, it was noticeably larger than that, so it seemed to be quite large.
‘Well, even if it’s not super large, the entry test is over.’
So far, there were fourteen large monsters that I had killed with my party members.
Since I had just caught six very large monsters, I had met the criteria for passing the test, which was 20 large monsters.
‘Of course, this is after catching Franco with the sack.’
All of the remains of the ogre were in Franco’s possession. That’s why he had to catch Franco even more.
Kim Jin-seong soon approached the corpse and began cutting off only the navel area, just as Franco had done.
Jinseong Kim thought as he put the remains into the black bag he received at the immigration office.
‘Anyway, was it really a crossbreed monster?’
Jinseong Kim checked the notification window again, which he had temporarily put away while hunting.
▶ You have defeated the monster.
▶ Obtained 215 Vis Creama points.
▶ Acquired the monster’s comprehensive characteristic, ‘Mutant Ogre Created by God’.
▷ Mutant Ogre created by God: Obtains the following characteristics and permanent storage skills.
– Strength and stamina are permanently increased by 100, and agility is increased by 80.
– Skin defense is permanently increased by 100.
– Glasgow Kiss: Headbutts the opponent with all his might. Upon using the skill, skin defense increases by 1,000% for 5 seconds. Consumes 250 mana.
‘The abilities obtained are similar to those obtained from Twin Head Ogre and Minotaur combined.’
Considering not only its appearance but also its name, ‘Minota Ogre’, it really seemed like a monster born from crossbreeding.
‘Could it be that cross-breeding monsters like this are common in the New Continent?’
Kim Jin-seong packed all the loot from the six corpses into a sack.
Afterwards, he immediately turned around and headed toward the collapsed cave entrance.
Kang! Kang! Wow! Okay!
However, the sound of battle was faintly heard in Kim Jin-seong’s sensitive eardrums.
Moreover, it was clearly coming from outside the entrance of the collapsed cave.
‘… I can tell just by hearing the sound. Franco is still fighting with the party members.’
Kim Jin-seong was confident in his heart.
In fact, the sounds of battle outside the entrance could be heard even before Jinseong Kim slayed the monsters.
* * *
Wow!
Once again, blood spurted from Karen’s body.
“Ugh… !”
Karen groaned and stepped back.
His entire body was already stained red from blood flowing from large and small wounds.
It was the time when the enemies were once again trying to rush towards him, who was frowning and suffering.
“Wait, wait.”
Franco held out his hand and stopped his rushing colleagues.
His colleagues all looked at him with expressions asking why, but Franco’s eyes remained fixed on Karen.
match. match. match.
“amazing. “I never thought I could endure this much with my mana blocked.”
Franco, applauding, had a look of genuine admiration on his face. It seemed like he was purely surprised by Karen’s skills.
“First of all, the basics are very good. Not only swordsmanship and physical balance, but also stamina, strength, and speed… . “There is nothing lacking.”
“… Why are you suddenly praising me out of nowhere?”
At the question of Ivan, who was standing next to him, Franco turned to him.
“He is such a talented person that it would be a waste to kill him like this. is not it?”
Ivan’s eyes widened at Franco’s words.

“… Are you really trying to recruit that bastard?”
Franco nods without hesitation.
He took his gaze away from the surprised Ivan and asked Karen again.
“Choose. Are you going to keep fighting and fall behind like this, or are you going to come under me?”
“… … .”
Looking at Karen who did not respond, Franco reached into his waist and took out something.
“If you are going to come under me, wear these hunter shackles.”
Franco threw away the shackles he was holding.
Karen, who had accepted the shackles, still looked down at them in silence.
Franco turned his gaze away from Karen, who had no idea what she was thinking, and asked his colleagues.
“What about you guys? “Don’t you think it’s okay if you have this level of skill?”
Soon the colleagues looked at each other and began to express their opinions one by one.
“hmm… .”
“It’s not a bad skill… .”
“I don’t think it will bother you, but will they listen to us?” ?”
Although everyone looked uncomfortable, there was not a single person who voiced an opposing opinion.
The combat power that Karen showed was so outstanding that even they could not deny it.
“I think everyone agrees unless there are opposing opinions.”
Despite Franco’s continued words, no one came forward to object.
In fact, some of them even put down the swords they were holding at an angle.
After summarizing his colleagues’ opinions, Franco urged Karen.
“Choose quickly. “I’m not a very patient person.”
“… … .”
“I’ll give you just 10 seconds.”
Karen continued to look down at the shackles.
However, this time, his face was so worried that it was obvious even on the outside.
‘really… . If I wear this, will they welcome me as a colleague? Rather, they could turn me into a slave or human flesh.’
Karen raised her head and looked at Franco.
He was a man who deceived and killed even members of the same clan he had known for a long time.
Today is even the first time I see Karen. There was no way Franco could be trusted in such a situation.
‘But if I don’t kick this, I’ll die.’
Now that the mana was blocked, if the battle continued, the obvious outcome of death was waiting.
In the end, if I didn’t want to die, I had no choice but to wear these shackles on my wrists.
It was then.
“for a moment!”
Ivan raised his hand and shouted in a loud voice. Everyone’s eyes turned to him.
Ivan’s eyes were fixed on Karen’s left breast, which was in tatters and completely torn.
There was a large black dragon tattoo drawn there.
“That bastard is from ‘Ukobachi’!”
Everyone’s eyes widened at those words.
But no one was more surprised than Karen.
When his eyes were shaking violently for a moment, Franco quickly asked Ivan.
“Is that real?”
“that’s right! “I originally had a burning demon tattoo on my left chest, but I covered it up with a dragon tattoo!”
Karen’s eyes shook even more after hearing Ivan’s answer.
‘How could that…’ ?’
I was confident that I had completely covered my demon tattoo with a dragon tattoo so that no one could recognize it, but Ivan caught me at once.
“What, then is this guy originally from the New World?”
Franco said, looking at Karen with changed eyes.
‘Ukobachi’ was quite famous in the New World until recently.
It was said that if you were from ‘Ukobachi’, you were already active in the New World.
“You made it all the way to this island without being caught by the screening machine?”
“At least my whole face was pulverized, right? “There are a lot of kids who avoid screening like that and come in, right?”
Karen, who was listening to the conversation between Franco and Ivan, gritted her teeth without realizing it.
This was because there was nothing wrong with their conversation.
“If you really come from Ukovac, things will be different. “Aren’t they still offering a bounty if they catch them?”
“Uh, I think it’s at least 30 billion.”
“Then we can’t even keep him alive.”
There was renewed life in the eyes of the group, including Franco.
“Guys, it’s a whopping 30 billion! Kill it quickly!”
That was when the Francos were about to rush towards Karen all at once.
“… … !”
For a moment, Franco paused, feeling uneasy for no apparent reason.
And then, as if he felt something, he jumped high.
At the same time, something shot up from the floor where he was standing.
Wow!
“evil… !”
Franco, who was unable to dodge and received a deep cut on his thigh, screamed.
He landed on his back, held his bleeding thigh with one hand, and raised his head towards his attacker.
‘… jin!’
A black-haired Asian young man.
Franco’s eyes widened when he saw Jin’s appearance.
‘How did you escape from your habitat without making a sound?’
To get here from the habitat, you had to go through the collapsed entrance.
But so far no sound has been heard from the entrance.
Even if a rock was broken or a hole was made, a loud sound would inevitably have been heard.
‘no way… . ‘Do you have teleportation skills?’
When Franco couldn’t organize his complicated thoughts.
“Is this why you dropped me?”
Jinseong Kim looked around and opened his mouth.
The corpses of those who were in his group came into his sight.
“They locked me up, who was the hardest to deal with, and then hunted me after dealing with the rest.”
Kim Jin-seong’s gaze, which was checking Franco’s colleagues, soon became fixed on Franco.
“How dare you use such a troublesome trick if you’re not confident in your skills?”
“This bastard… !”
Sparks flew in Franco’s eyes.
At the same time, he shouted loudly to his colleagues.
“It’s the black-haired bastard I mentioned earlier! “Get rid of this bastard first!”
At those words, the group surrounding Karen moved all at once to surround Kim Jin-seong.
At that time, a siege network centered around Kim Jin-seong was formed.
Suddenly, cloudy gray smoke began to billow from Kim Jin-seong’s body.
Franco was taken aback by the gray smoke that instantly covered the surroundings.
‘This… . no way!’
When the people around him suddenly disappeared, Franco soon noticed the identity of the gray smoke.
‘Why is there a fog of illusion in a place like this…? !’
Franco kept turning his head and looking around with anxious eyes.
A fog of illusion that I have experienced only once in my life. This was because the memories of that time were still stuck as bad memories.
“Franco!”
At that time, I heard a familiar voice next to me.
Eight hunters approaching Franco through gray fog.
These were the party members he had killed, including Rio.
“Why did you kill me!”
“Ever since I was young, I have never rebelled and followed!”
“Are magic stones more important than our memories?”
Franco gritted his teeth at the sight of them shouting one word at a time with faces full of anger.
“profit… ! go away! “You bastards with no skills!”
“You are the trash!”
“You are trash!”
“die! “You bastard!”
Soon, Rio and other party members rush towards Franco with devil-like faces.
Franco started swinging his sword wildly at them as if he was going to attack them.
“Who is trash! go away! die! “Die!”
Sigh!
At that time, the tip of the sword suddenly pierced Franco’s neck and protruded forward.
A voice sounded in Franco’s ears, who stopped his actions for a moment like a still screen.
“I will use the mana blocking skill well.”
Kim Jin-seong suddenly approached the back and stabbed the back of the neck with a dagger, then twisted the handle and made a diagonal slash.
Wow!
Franco’s head flew up into the air.
