Evren occupied the entire exquisite suite in the ship by himself.

Zarory had the second best suite on the ship though he had yet to step foot in there

Clang.

Cl...

Noises ehoed from the bottom of the ship.

Evren slightly opened his eyes on his luxurious bed.

As I thought, they can merely scratch the 2000 man ship.

'I guess that means three days worth of sleep'

He closed his eyes.

...

Meanwhile

In front of Zarory's suite.

'He has such a luxurious suite and won't even stay in it.'

With that thought several men thought to use it in his stead.

Whilst they were enjoying it, they didn't see a dark figure behind them.

'Huh'

Whack.

Whack.

On the deck.

'Hey wait this is such a big ship and you two have the best spots shouldn't you...'

Zarory held the main perpetrator by the neck over the toxic waters.

The man bargained for his life whilst looking at the terrifying waters colliding against the ship.

'You seem to be misunderstanding something, you're living on our charity so know your place!!'

Throw.

His body arched as it flew in the water.

Gulp.

The others felt anxiety eating their hearts.

There was no replay button so they couldn't do it over or else they would never had done it.

Grab.

Throw.

Grab.

Throw.

.....

No matter how they struggled they all ended up on the water.

They could do nothing against Zarory who already had red runes.

'Agh, help!!!!'

'Save me!!'

They continued to fight for their lives in the toxic waters that melted them slowly by the second.

Suddenly their faces went pale in fright.

Something was grabbing onto their ankles.

They were pulled down beneath the water surface.

The things that blocked the path that lead from the tutorial area to the starting point of the red zone. These beings couldn't leave the water since the only reason they could live in the water was because they received the curse of the toxic waters

They didn't really have a way of eating people outside of the water, so they pulled them into the water. They made holes at the bottom of sh.i.p.s and pulled the humans down. When their bodies are marinated by the water and get soggy enough, they eat them.

The 2000 man ship could handle their assaults so it was pointless, they were just about to leave when a few humans jumped in the water.

Seizing the moment, they grabbed them and dragged them deeper into the water.

All the members gathered on deck.

Seeing this they were frightened.

Suddenly something big jumped out of the water.

It has the body of a cursed survivor but much bigger. Like the king of mermen.

It was a

They were basically cursed survivors but stronger and they could not leave the sea for extended periods but there was another problem.

It was equivalent to a third year adventurer of the red zone.

When it landed on the deck they knew.

'Shit, that thing...'

It controlled the toxic water like a sea deity and flung it at the 100 as the ship was surrounded by water it was quite a lot.

Enough to wash them off and bring them to the sea.

The cursed fighter looked at Zarory. It wasn't afraid.

At this moment, the door of the ship opened and Alaric exited.

The cursed fighter flinched. It felt something dangerous from him.

It walked to the edge of the deck and took one last look at Alaric before jumping off into the water.

It wisely decided to avoid fighting him.

Zarory looked at its entry point back into the water.

'We're letting it get away?'

Alaric looked across the toxic waters.

'That 100 would only inconvenience us. If we arrived and they inform the ones at the top of the red zone about our abnormalities, it would be troublesome if we had to avoid scouts.'

'It's more peaceful this way'

Evren headed straight for his bed and fell asleep amidst its soft embrace. Not sparing a thought for them.

Three days had passed.

.....

The sh.i.p.s that started off from the ten thousand tutorial areas will arrive on one of the thousands of roots that spread out from the dead World Tree according to the path that the fairy had set .

Since the only place to live within the toxic sea is above the dead root .

A structure where the people who started off from the tutorial would climb up from that location .

Though it was a root it was basically the size of a mountain range .

That was why it was called the .

And a giant being constantly swam around the toxic sea and ate whenever a World Tree Root gew out .

.

A fish of calamity .

The result of Genetic Biology of Demonic creatures of the natives of the that they created in order to defend their race from the harsh environment and one of the five calamities that dried the to death .

The place where the World tree had dried to death from the five calamites had simply turned into hell and had fallen down into ruin .

Since a tree which had its roots ripped apart could not live properly .

It had the ability to devour everything but then it wouldn't have anything to eat anymore so it as if it was farming, slowly going around and biting off the roots of the World Tree bit by bit .

A giant mutant that seemed like it was born to kill the World Tree .

Evren had already gotten up ,feeling the vibrations in the water.

'We'll act separately for now.'

Evren handed Zarory a note. Of contained the most efficient places and prey to hunt.

'Burn it after you are finished'

He nodded showing he understood.

Evren looked at the calamity fish in the distance. Killing that had to be done as soon as possible.

Leaving this floor after running around beneath the thumb of those 'natural disasters' and the seven who stood at the top. Most didn't even know what all of them looked like.

Nonetheless, that was how it usually went. They ran about the floor like headless flies running away from all who was stronger than them. That was the smart way for the weak to survive.

But he wasn't like them. He had two zero numbering skills,

The Numbering Series were the most outstandings things that the humans had found out and numbered . The zero numbering were the things that they had yet to discover that surpassed what they already had.

He had two such skills. Dragon's blood, a budding dragon's physique, knowledge of the future, the seven stars trait, the sixth sense stat and the trait he gained from the first gateway. He had so many advantages, he would be the a retarded fool if he didn't trample all the others beneath his feet.

He knew how to kill all five of the calamities and they should have a suitable prize so why wouldn't he kill them.

' End Root '

The place where the world tree started. It was the end part of the root bit it was so huge it looked like an island.

The five calamities were basically like natural disasters for those who crossed the Red Zone .

It was not something designed to be killed but rather dodged or endured .

And they didn't have the leisure to think about how to prevent the natural disasters .

Since in the Red Zone one didn't have enough leisure to think about such things .

One would spend time figuring out how to dodge a hurricane rather than how to get rid of it .

And even more so if there are imminent dangers around them such as tigers and murderers roaming around .

They had prepared with the knowledge of all the remaining humans but that was not enough .

That was what hansoo was told. And Evren agreed, he should find a guide.

From now on it'll be hard. Zarory had red runes and two battle traits but he hadn't mastered the traits enough to keep up with him.

He had chosen a good trait as well. One that would be useful in battles. His skills and red runes as well still outclassed Zarory.

If Zarory was a demon among beginners of the red zone, he would be the king of demons.

'Watch out for.....'

Those were the last warnings he gave Zarory before leaving him at the end root and hiding the ship to search for his guide.

Like people trying to climb Mt . Everest that after they had completed their preparation, were still looking for a Sherpa on site .

Like an adventurer exploring the Amazon forest, even after getting a whole truck for preparations and plan for months, he would still look for a local guide .

A 3rd year adventurer who would try to hunt the Calamity Fish, something that no one else would even think of attempting .

She could be anywhere in this vast world since that woman had the ability to be anywhere whether it is the End root, Base root, Middle root or even the Trunk .

Of course one would be at that level if they spent 3 years in the Otherworld even if they had focused on hunting down the Calamity Fish .

'It's normal for people to have gone up already . '

It actually seemed impossible to find her in 2 weeks but Evren knew a way to find her .

'The Cross'

It wasn't the Cross of revival .

Since such things only exist in the tutorial area .

But the fact that it was made to find somebody one missed was similar .

If you think of the reason why Camille Rowe was attempting the Calamity Fish hunting then it is obvious that she would be around the Cross at this moment .

Thousands of giant crosses that the Helper Clan had erected on every End root .

He suddenly thought of earrings.

'Sigh, though it was expected. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is especially in this world'

The earrings could be directly activated. In fact it was a one time use item. But unlike most it had an active and passive state.

While in active you could only use it once but while passive it's durability slowly decreased until it crumbled.

The red rune temporary upgrade siphoned all it's durability.

'Though if it wasn't for it, I probably wouldn't have gotten this.'
