Chapter 346
Episode 346: Jeong Hyeon-ah
The next day came.
– Brother, it’s okay if I accidentally kill you on the way. And I would advise against making that mistake as much as possible.
“Would you want to say something like that to a girl who isn’t even an adult yet?”
– What is he saying now? When the Triad was created, the Black King was younger than Hyuna is now. Do you know what it was like for that ‘girl who wasn’t even an adult’ at that time?
I know roughly.
In the end, I answered with a short sigh.
“Client, do you remember what we coordinated?”
– I remember.
“Then would you please stop throwing up now?”
A low chuckle can be heard on the other end of the phone.
Is it fun?
I hung up the phone without answering further.
The details of the request negotiated with the enemy were complicated, filled with annoying restrictions and special contracts, but the information that [Cthulhu World] processed into the form of a quest was very intuitive.
[
A strange change has occurred in the Cheongho faction. Check the cause of the change and return Cheonghopa to its previous appearance.
Secondary Mission 1. Survival of the Red Head
! Time limit: Red bean dies after (3) days. !
Secondary mission 2. Jeong Hyeon-ah’s survival
! Time limit: Hyunah Jeong will no longer exist in this world after (3) days. !
Reward: 9,000,000 XP + additional compensation based on mission performance + Park Gwang-rim’s safety
In case of failure: The destruction of this world begins. (If the secondary objective is failed) the Black King becomes the owner of the Triad.]
Troublesome restrictions.
Park Kwang-lim or Jeong Hyun-ah are not the problem.
If you fail, the world will be destroyed. Simple, right?
It is also worth noting that if either Jeokdu or Jeong Hyeon-ah dies, the Black King becomes the owner of the Triumvirate.
The moment one of the three becomes the leader of the Triad, [the division of the Triad] ends. And then the next event that causes the destruction of the world begins.
This development is absolutely unacceptable to me.
“We must delay the destruction for at least one more day.”
I am not a warrior of justice who moves to solve the problems or absurdities of this world.
“I’m doing it for my own benefit.”
“that’s right. “No one else matters.” “bothered. bothered. bothered.” “Oh, shit.” “What does this feel like?” “It gives me goosebumps.” “Someone keeps touching my body.” “Do not touch.”
Ugh- Ugh- Ugh- Ugh-
“No matter how much I scratch, this unpleasant sensation doesn’t go away.” “I want to get away quickly.” “The air in this world is a problem.” “I want to tear my skin off.” “Something is whispering to me.” “No one can help me.” “In the end, I have no choice but to do it alone.” “No one else can help.” “It’s unpleasant. It’s unpleasant. “It’s unpleasant.”
Suddenly, I raise my hand and see bright red blood on my fingernails.
“huh? “What is this blood?”
sigh.
Where did you scratch while talking on the phone with Jeokdu?
I wiped away the blood and fumbled around, but… … .
* * *
Kim Shin-hwa could not find any wounds anywhere on her body.
It’s because of the [fast healing] effect he has.
A related alarm was also output, but Kim Shin-hwa did not seem to be aware of it.
The wound heals quickly, so there is no pain or scar left behind, but the unpleasant sensation of a snake grazing her body continues to sharpen Kim Shin-hwa’s nerves.
That’s a good trend.
You will soon be able to see something interesting.
* * *
… … There were no wounds anywhere.
“Then where did this blood come from?”
“Let’s not think too deeply.” “okay. are you okay.” “Let’s just think of a way to get out of here.” “We have to run away quickly.”
Oh yeah.
Anyway, Gong Yi-soo is coming soon.
Of course, if he comes, everything will be resolved immediately or-
Hi everyone! Thank you so much! I am leaving this world! Cthulhu World is over! What kind of development… … You shouldn’t expect it.
But it will be much better than the situation that has been wandering without any solution until now.
Let’s hold on just a little longer.
You can somehow escape this world by buying time by eliminating, delaying, and overcoming the events that cause the world’s destruction.
* * *
“Wizard, is there anything I can help you with?”
Jang Hyeon-deok asked a question to me as I walked around the living room fully armed.
“How will a driving expert without a car help me?”
“Umm… … .”
Jang Hyeon-deok lowers his head with his arms crossed.
Oops, did I say that too much?
However, Jang Hyeon-deok soon responded by striking a strange pose.
“You can help in a magical way!”
sigh.

“What on earth is that pose?”
“It’s a magic expert pose that goes beyond a driving expert?”
Sigh again.
“I do not need. Because you are not better yet. “Don’t think about anything else and stay at home.”
“Oh, indeed. “I think everything is better.”
“The hardest thing is to understand your own problems. Sanghyun, I think I’ll be back later than dinner, so don’t prepare anything for me.”
“All right. Please be careful.”
* * *
“You’re just leaving.”
A vast desert formed around the mansion.
Obelisks rising everywhere. Egyptian hieroglyphs painted on the exterior walls of the mansion.
“Well, considering the theme, it wouldn’t be strange if a pyramid or a sphinx appeared.”
Aside from the interior, you can see the desert sand moving occasionally.
“There’s something big and long under the sand.”
There must be a crocodile hiding, right? I wish it was a crocodile.
That’s scary.
I took a deep breath and fumbled with my mask.
“Phew… … .”
I feel a bit more at ease.
My emotional ups and downs are a little strange these days. I’m sure I’m missing something else, right? Are my thoughts entirely my own?
I don’t know. Actually, this kind of thinking is a problem that cannot be concluded even if there is no mental problem, right?
Thinking about it more deeply will only make your head hurt.
“No matter what happens, it will be solved if we attack and destroy it.”
So rather than hesitating and worrying, let’s move.
“Gam (鑑), Myeong (銘), Hyeon (present), Yeong (影)… … .”
I recited a simple abbreviated mantra and composed several techniques.
Tsuzzzzzzzz-
A magic circle unfolding loosely on the outskirts of the desert.
“Let’s secure one extra life.”
Now is the rush.
I flew into the sky and activated my magic.
[Mirror image]
[Large-Scale Illusion]
[Desert Mirage]
* * *
Whistling alarm sound.
“It’s Kim Shin-hwa!”
“Kim Shin-hwa is coming!”
Members of the Cheongho Sect, or rather, those who at some point became cultists of the [Scaleed Conspiracy] against their will, are pouring out into the desert.
The wizard’s invasion was already expected. A huge amount of firearms were carried instead of Khopesh, which could only be used in close combat.
No one is holding a trivial object. Rocket launchers and autocannons appear in an extremely ferocious manner.
Heavy, large-diameter firearms that are difficult for ordinary people to carry due to their weight.
Among them, the magic stone weapons sold by Kim Shin-hwa to Yeom Geum-ja are noticeable.
Although Kim Shin-hwa rushed out at the word of an emergency, he was nowhere to be seen. Where is it? Where is it? The opponent is a wizard. Be careful because you never know what he might do.
“There it is! “It’s in the sky!”
Who shouted? Thanks to a shout heard from somewhere, everyone’s eyes go up to the sky.
indeed!
It’s Kim Shinhwa! If that’s not Kim Shin-hwa, then who is Kim Shin-hwa?
The appearance of a wizard floating in the sky with a proud stance.
A silky scroll fluttering in a surreal way.
And the absolutely terrifying four-eyed mask.
“Shoot!” “Attack!” “Taste the wrath of the desert!”
Rockets and bullets flying indiscriminately. Magic Stone Bomb.
[System: The penalty attribute ‘Feast Offering’ is activated.]
The desert formed here is not just for decoration. The abyssal entity that wields the power of the desert begins to unleash its power.
It’s a joke!
A noise so terrifying that it makes your hair stand on end.
Obelisks placed here and there in the desert simultaneously emit purple thunderbolts.
A tremendous attack that covers the sky.
However, despite such attacks, Kim Shin-hwa did not suffer any damage. Circling her sky in a large circle, Kim Shin-hwa extends her hands to the sky and casts her magic.
Bzzzzzz… … .
A pitch-black shadow covers the sky.
The high priest wearing the crocodile mask laughs at the sight.
“Is it a dark cloud?”
It is laughable to call for rain against those who dare to use the power of the desert.
But it is a mistake.
Bzzzzzzzzzz… … .
The pitch-black mass that was thought to be a dark cloud instead of spewing out rain or lightning, pours down to the ground in its exact form.
[Bug Storm]
[Spell Enhancement: Deadly Poison]
So many bugs are falling from the sky that they can be mistaken for dark clouds.
* * *
Kwaaaaang!
An explosion heard from outside the mansion. And scream.
A rumbling sound that resonates throughout the mansion.
This is the same strategy that has often been used in the past.
While Hwan-sang was on a rampage, he hid in Cheong-ho’s mansion.
Isn’t it easier to deal with the cause of the problem right away rather than dealing with the henchmen that appear and the difficulties that arise in order?
“Anyway, the infiltration action is simple.”
Sensitivity that spreads in all directions.
Where should we start? Hyuna’s room? Cheongho’s room?
Or- Oh, there it is. An unpleasant magical power that feels unusually strong.
The place I always visited to meet Jeong Hyun-ah.
This is the very room where the Cheongho faction’s executive meeting was held.
kkiiiiik-
A door that opens slowly.
This moment is always the most tense. Anxiety that something may be different from what is confirmed by the senses.
The room where the round table was was now transformed into a temple where an elaborate ceremony was held.
“It’s Egyptian style.”
An unrealistic level of change.
The physical structure and size of the building were completely ignored. A huge space the size of all the other rooms in the mansion combined.
Fine sand on the floor. Torches placed here and there. A tall stone pillar.
And the four artifacts placed in the center of the temple.
‘Did you say that the Red Head is made up of four statues?’
That’s not a statue.
monkey, jackal, and hawk respectively. and an ivory jar with a human face carved into it.
“Canopic jars.”
A jar used to store internal organs removed from a corpse when making a mummy.
Each contains the lungs, stomach, intestines, and liver.
To be exact, the intestines of the [Scaleed Conspirator].
“ha-”
A short sigh.
Eating the intestines in this jar – instead of becoming a slave to the abyss, you can gain otherworldly powers.
You probably haven’t eaten it already, right?
[System: ‘Enhanced detection’ is activated.]
Someone is approaching from outside the room.
Well, it’s an inevitable trend.
Rather than that, it is more important to check this jar.
Because depending on what happens to the contents of this jar, a completely different solution is needed.
I quickly approached the altar and opened the lid of one of the jars.
“Oh, shit.”
Inside the jar… … . there was nothing.
[System: The penalty attribute ‘Feast Offering’ is activated.]
Mei profit-
At the same time, the door opens slowly. And a human voice followed by a growling sound.
“Kim Shin-hwa.”
You know someone.
“I’m so glad you came this far.”
A hissing breathing sound accompanied by an unpleasant voice that sounds like a snake.
I answered, barely moving my stiff facial muscles.
“… … long time no see. miss.”
[What appeared before your eyes was a being that could never be called human. But that doesn’t mean he wasn’t the ‘snake person’ you were worried about. Reptilian? It’s an interesting delusion.]
shit.
I didn’t come in without a plan, but this is the worst situation I could have ever expected.
[Scales sprouting all over the body. Moving scaled tentacles instead of hair. The lower body is twisted and intertwined into one. Four arms mutated in a bizarre way.]
[What should I call it? The Naga mentioned in legend? Gorgon? Or, would it be better to call her Wadjet, the winged cobra goddess who is said to protect the pharaoh and guard the valley of the underworld?]
The horrible description depicted in the message window.
But that was exactly the image achieved by Jeong Hyeon-ah, who ate the intestines of God.
