Apocalypse's All-Rounder Mischief

Chapter 27

Zombie rampage was only a harbinger (2)

“Why are you hesitating, human? Are you scared? Come in if you are confident!”

Kahlik glared at Junyoung and shouted again.

It seems that he already knew that Junyoung was after him.

“Nyan!”

And then looked forward and wept briefly.

Did you see something?

Its unique ability, detection, has not been activated, but it appears to be very wary.

It’s not just the guy.

Tatiana also suddenly flinched her body and she looked at Junyoung.

“Somehow, I don’t think I should go in there. The atmosphere in the building is quite gloomy compared to when I was there. I don’t feel good.”

Junyoung nodded.

Of course, he also noticed something strange.

“If you see them suddenly provoke like that while running away, it means they have a plan.”

I see you are fully prepared.

But it could be a hoax.

In terms of poca, it’s a punk.

There is a high probability that it’s a bug, but if it isn’t, you’re in big trouble.

You can’t risk your life and risk it.

‘I would like to withdraw for now.’

but don’t just go

I’ve come all the way here, but I can’t go empty-handed.

‘research!’

It was closer than before, so I tried again.

[There are objects that can be explored in front.][Would you like to spend mana to explore the target?]

Immediately, the light of inquiry lit up in Kahlik’s body.

Again, this time it was a success.

Let’s see what kind of guy he is?

‘Yes. Explore.’

[Consumes 10 mana.][Search was successful.][The target is Hobgoblin Kahlik.][Hobgoblin Kahlik]

-Rank: ★(1 star)

-Description: One of the commanders who rule the goblins of Drust Forest. His immense physical strength and superpowers, as well as his skill in magic, make him very difficult to deal with.

-【Singularity】 The defense is very strong, but if it is hit by the magic flame, the defense will decrease.

-[Tikin’s Protection] Within a certain radius where the “Goblin God, Tikin’s Altar” is built, “Tikin’s Protection” is activated for the goblins! Combat power soars, and even if hit by magical sparks, defense does not decrease easily.

-[Reputation Reward] Reputation can be acquired by killing Khalik

‘A hobgoblin?’

Goblin Commander.

I thought there was magic attached to the front, but it doesn’t seem to be.

Instead, it is indicated that the rating is 1 star with a star (★).

I don’t know exactly what that means, but it seems to mean some kind of strong monster.

‘The vampires did not have such a mark.’

Even the magical vampire Jung Yu-mi was not able to show it.

That means there is a high possibility that the Hobgoblin Kahlik has a stronger fighting power than Jung Yumi.

Of course, even if that were the case, it was possible to damage him with magical sparks, so there was no chance of winning.

‘But not there.’

A gloomy energy swirling around the convenience store building.

I didn’t approach it hastily because it didn’t feel good.

‘Certainly.’

It is clear that the goblins built an altar to Tikkin in that convenience store.

It is unknown why that convenience store building became a fortress for goblins.

‘The reason he brought me here is probably because of Tikkin’s protection from the altar.’

Under Tykin’s protection, his combat power soars, as well as magical flames.

He would have been in a lot of trouble if he had just attacked me.

Like sly goblins.

“Human from another world! Why are you hesitating? Come in here with that weapon!”

“Kikiki! Human bastard! come in! Come in!”

“Kyakyakya! Meat Meat Human Meat! Soft cat meat~!”

In the meantime, Kahlik and his goblins continued to taunt Junyoung by raising it.

“Aaaaah!”

And looked at them and wept loudly.

It’s a pretty hot expression.

Have you ever heard the goblins say cat meat?‘It’s because he can understand people’s words very well.’

No, I mean, now it’s a goblin.

Still, looking at his face, he must have understood.

Andrew was just staring at the goblin he just said was cat meat.

Sharp eyes as if to leave it alone!

‘Twitter, I have another cat to touch. Cubicity is a problem everywhere.’

Cats are naturally strong at the back, but will And, the awakened cat, be terrified?

At that moment, the goblin, who met Andrew’s gaze, flinched and avoided his gaze.

He seems to have gotten some kind of eerie feeling.

“Calm down, Andy. Let’s go back today.”

Junyoung stroked Andrew’s hair.

True education for that goblin can be done tomorrow.

Today is not the only day.

“Nyaan!”

Then he nodded his head as if he knew it and raised his tail straight.

The more he sees him, the more clever and quirky he is.

He knows how to be patient when he’s angry.

“Koohahaha! Are you scared? You bastard from another world!”

When Junyoung was about to go back, Kahlik noticed it and ran out of the building to provoke him.

“If you are confident, keep coming!”

With those words, Junyoung pulled the trigger of the flamethrower.

Hurr!

When the blue magic sparks appeared, Kahlik backed away with a puzzled expression.

Even though it was far away from the effective range, the magical sparks seemed reluctant.

Then he said with a sullen smile.

“You filthy human! You believe in weapons and don’t know the world is scary. Anyway, it’s only a matter of time before you guys die. I’ll keep an eye on you to see if you can get through tonight.”

tonight?

Is something popping out at night?

But with those words, Kahlik went inside the convenience store building.

Its subordinate goblins also disappeared into the building, leaving only five or six of them standing on the alert.

‘I can’t see.’

The all-glass parts of banks, cafes, and convenience stores should be transparent to see inside, but now they are obscured by a strange energy.

‘I can’t attack blindly and it hurts my head.’

Actually, even if tomorrow comes, there are no special measures.

‘I have to deal with them somehow.’

Otherwise, you won’t have a day to feel at ease.

It’s pretty close to the hideout.

What is unusual is that the building, which was located about 100 meters from the hideout until yesterday, is now almost several hundred meters away.

Did you move to another world and widen the distance?

‘It’s unfortunate, but fortunately.’

Of course, it is not a safe distance.

After all, there are only one thing that is within reach of your nose if you fall over.

‘It’s best to hide and surprise when that guy comes out.’

Or there is a way to destroy Tikkin’s altar, but that doesn’t seem easy.

‘Is it possible to grasp that energy through exploration?’

A very gloomy aura is swirling around the entire building, centering on the convenience store.

Tykin’s protection!

There is no clear color, but the surrounding space is slightly shaken, so you can see where the boundary is.

‘It may or may not work, but let’s do it.’

Of course, you have to approach the building a little more to do this, but it’s not difficult since Khalik and Goblins are inside.

‘research!’

[This is a searchable target.][Want to spend mana to explore?]

A smile appeared on Junyoung’s lips.

As expected.

‘Yes.’

[The target is Tikkin’s protection.][Tykin’s Blessing]

-Description: A special energy that is expressed at the altar of the goblin god Tikhin. It greatly increases the attack power and defense of the goblins located within the protection zone.

-【Singularity】Tikin’s Altar exerts its power due to three totems secretly hidden somewhere in the Drust Forest.

‘This is it.’

I finally found a way.

Again, it was a good thing I did the research.

‘If only totems are found and destroyed, the altar loses its ability.’

Of course, it’s not easy to find where the totems are hiding, but how is it that there is a way?

‘Drust Forest seems to mean this forest.’

Find the totems hidden somewhere in this forest and destroy them.

Immediately, Junyoung spoke to Tatiana.

“Today, we are returning to the hideout. If you see anything unusual on the way, please tell me immediately.”

“Is it unusual?”

“It could be a tree, a stone, or a sculpture. If you notice anything that seems a bit strange, please tell me.”

“I see. But may I ask why?”

“In the convenience store, there is an altar that gives buffs to the goblins. To get rid of that altar, we need to find and destroy the totems hidden in the forest.”

Junyoung briefly explained the situation.

Then Tatiana looked at her with her eyes wide open.

“Wow! How the hell do you know that? Have you also awakened the power of foresight?”

“It’s not that big of a skill. It’s just that there are some miscellaneous abilities.”

“Looking at it a while ago, it seems that you can communicate with goblins…….”

“It is an ability that came about by chance. Anyway, that’s not important, we need to find the totem quickly.”

“like! I am very good at finding things.”

Tatiana began to look around her, twinkling her eyes like a hawk.

But, listening to Junyoung and Tatiana’s conversation with a prickly ear, And suddenly ran to somewhere quickly.

“Nyan!”

A cry immediately followed.

I turned her head towards it, wondering what was going on, and saw him standing still and staring at one side.

‘That one?’

At first glance, giant mushrooms that look over 2 meters tall.

Of course, these are the things I saw while chasing the goblins earlier.

They are bizarre mushrooms of absurd size, but I thought it was nothing unusual because this is a different world run by goblins anyway.

“what’s the matter? What is there?”

“Nyaan!”

The green light that twinkles in And’s eyes!

That’s what happens when you unlock something hidden.

[And triggers detection.][And found an unknown gap.]

At the same time, between the pillars of giant mushrooms, a gap large enough for a person to fit in appeared.

[Unknown Gap]

-Description: An unknown gap.

The description is the name.

What kind of gap is there?

Andy tried to get in, but he bounced back as if something had pushed him.

“Meow!”

tuk. tuk.

He tried to enter several times, but to no avail.

“Eon!”

The guy turned his head and looked at Junyoung.

A characteristic curious expression.

The boy’s eyes were shining as if there was something there.

‘It’s very likely to be a totem.’

And’s detection is excellent at finding something hidden as it is now.

But that’s it.

Exact information about the subject is not available.

In that case, what you need is exploration.

‘research!’

[Unknown gaps can be explored.][Want to spend mana to explore?]

The gap was covered with a mysterious light.

It is the light of exploration.

‘Yes.’

[Search was successful.][The target is the Dark Totem Barrier.]

‘also!’

[Dark Totem Barrier]

-Description: A place where the dark totem that gives power to the goblin god Tikin’s altar is hidden. It is sealed with a special barrier.

-[Caution] Totem of Darkness can only be destroyed by destroying Totem of Fighting Totem and Totem of Life.

As expected, it is one of the places where the totem is hidden.

There were three in total, but thanks to And, I found one of them very easily.

However, it is said that this can only be broken by destroying the other totems first.

‘You must destroy the Totem of Fighting and the Totem of Life first to enter the area.’

That is the reason why And continues to bounce back without being able to get into the gap in the barrier.

“Andy! There are two more places like this. Find another place.”

Then Tatiana stretched out her right arm and pointed her finger in one place.“Is that maybe?”

“Where?”

“There is a sculpture with a strange pattern on top of that wooden pole.”

“Five!”

Junyoung was surprised by Tatiana’s observation skills.

It is in the middle of a particularly tall tree that is about 30 meters away.

It is difficult to find unless you look carefully because it is covered with leaves, but Tatiana found it at once.

A piece of goblin warrior shape.

However, it is still unknown whether that is Tikkin’s totem.

‘Let’s approach it and start exploring.’

[Search was successful.][The target is the totem of fighting spirit.][Totem of Fighting]

-Description: A totem of fighting spirit that gives strength to the altar of the goblin god Tikin.

found.

“Andy, drop that totem down!”

“Nyan!”

And then climbed up a wooden pole and slammed the totem with his paws.

puck!

The totem was anchored to a tree, but when a powerful paw bang that sent goblins or zombies in one shot exploded, it crashed to the floor without a hitch.

quadang-

Although it looks almost broken.

I can’t be so reassured.

‘Let’s burn it out.’

Junyoung fired a flamethrower at the totem as if waiting.

Hurr!

A spark of blue magic engulfed the totem, which instantly turned into smoke and dispersed.

Notifications sounding at the same time.

[Tykin’s Totem of Fighting Totem has been destroyed.][The goblin god, Tykin, is furious.][Tykin’s Curse is activated.][Shock and stiffness effects are activated on melee and long-distance occupations within a radius of 30 meters.][Duration 30 seconds]

Curse?

Junyoung was startled.

‘What is this?’

Information not included in the investigation.

“Ah!”

For a moment, Tatiana trembled as if she had been struck by lightning.

[Tatiana is cursed by Tykin.][Tatiana is in shock for 30 seconds.][Tatiana is stunned for 30 seconds.]

Tatiana fell to her floor, motionless, as if corpse.

[Tatiana, Lv1]

-Status: Shocked and stiff due to Tykin’s curse

Curse removed after -30 seconds

“this!”
