The Player Who Returned From The Apocalypse

Chapter 71

[ You have entered the B-grade gate. ][Quest defense accepted. ][ Protect the cores. ][ Survive. ][ Some monsters become allies. ]

Seongjin, who entered the hunting gate first, read and erased only the important contents of the system message that came out.

In the end, the gist of the quest was defense, the quest that was done before.

Obviously, it was also the first quest to talk to a monster after doing a D-grade quest.

‘Will it be like this again?’

I looked around.

Unlike before, several cores were prepared.

I’ve never seen a gate like this.

Exactly the opposite of this, I had to break the core.

Perhaps these cores are prepared elsewhere, and if you don’t break them all, you will be able to clear the quest.

Of course, keeping them all would be more rewarding, though.

“…Oh my God, it’s a real B-grade real gate.”

“Yes. It was a real gate.”

“Can’t you see the system message more than that? This is a quest. Quest!”

As soon as the three people who followed Seongjin entered, they started talking about the information they had learned.

They were natural as it was their first hunting gate.

In particular, as soon as the word quest was finished, he was eager to check the information.

“There, Seongjin. What the hell is this?”

“Brother. I don’t know what it is. How can we get into the B-class gate?”

“How do you open this gate? Maybe we can open it too?”

All sorts of questions were like looking at a reporter.

Sungjin put his index finger to her mouth and let out a sigh.

Then the group shut their mouths.

They thought that there might be something in this place, but they thought they were talking too loudly.

“It seems to have calmed down, so I will answer you. First of all, this is different from other gates. The amount of monsters and the process are also different.”

“Hmmmm.”

As if sympathizing with Seongjin’s words, Sangsu nodded his head.

He appealed that he was a good listener, and others also took up notepads and made an effort to write them down.

“Once I receive the quest, I proceed. The quest is on the varied side, but fortunately this is a quest I’ve done before.”

“Then you must know the strategy.”

“Um, let’s say it’s an attack… At that time, it was all wiped out by force. In the original format, you have to kill the pre-existing monsters in this gate along with the new monster horde.”

“You fought really ignorantly.”

“It’s like your brother.”

“Somehow, I’ve known since I was trying to kill all the monsters in the dungeon.”

“…Hey, isn’t my evaluation too harsh?”

Sure, he fought ignorantly, but he did it because he was confident.

Sungjin coughed and spoke again.

“Hmmmm, anyway, the content of the quest is to cooperate with the existing monsters to deal with the monsters that appear at the time visible in the corner of the field of vision.”

“Then how do you identify Pia?”

“Allied monsters can interpret if they are similar to our party. It’s easy to tell from that, but… it’s better to take a look too. We move around to take a look at the gate structure as well.”

In the past, fellow monsters were right next to each other, but this time, they also seemed to be scattered because they had multiple cores.

To find them, and to learn the geography to effectively protect the core, he started moving.

Tock, tock, todd, tock-

As before, the gate was in the shape of a cave, so the footsteps echoed.

But it wasn’t soggy as before.

Rather, the fresh air made it easier to breathe and relieved tension as if in a forest.

There was no need for a light because green spheres like fireflies were floating around.

After walking for a while, a large green light appeared.

“You’ve made it so grandiose.”

I’m sure I was sure it was in the cave until a while ago.

Looking at this space, I couldn’t.

Trees with deep roots are lined up and the sky is shining like the sun.

It was like a dense forest.

The good news is that the stone walls are still in the cave.

‘They are the only ones who will do this.’

Sungjin thought so and looked around.

above the tree.

I could feel the magic there.

If you look closely, you can see a green-haired doll pointing a bow.

“Hello. Elves.”

Sungjin approached them with a smile.

Elf.

Sometimes they were monsters, sometimes they weren’t, and they were an ambiguous race.

When looking at the mana of the salesperson in the actual skill store, it seemed to be a person rather than a monster.

Approaching so slowly… .

Whoops!

“Huh?”

An arrow pierced right in front of Sungjin’s feet.

As if as a warning.

He stopped his feet and looked up at him.

Now it looked straight.

That means they have hostile eyes.

‘Why are you doing this?’

Elves are not a very militant race.

At the end of the day, even when the monsters were overflowing, the elves did not hostile them.

Of course, at that time, the existence of Mana may also have played a part, but basically, they were not a race that liked to fight.

Just in case, I checked the appearance time of the hostile monster.

There was still a long way to go for the hostile monster to appear.

If so, it means that these are fellow monsters, and Lizardmen meekly believed them as colleagues, but they couldn’t understand why they reacted like this.

“Don’t move there!”

An elf came down from the tree to warn him.

His bowstring, still pulling the string, was pulled tight, and instead of the arrow, an arrow made of green magic was attached.

He is probably the highest ranked among the elves here.

‘If you look at what makes sense, the fellow monsters are those guys.’

Seongjin raised both hands to indicate that he did not intend to attack.

“I don’t know why you’re doing this all of a sudden, but why are you doing this? Wasn’t it our colleague?”

“Colleague? Colleague? Ha. I’ve never heard of a brazen like you in my life.”

“Am I doing something wrong? If you teach me, I apologize.”

I know all the etiquette of elves, but I know that each tribe is slightly different, so I said that.

Then the elf replied to it.

“Aren’t you the Murderer who has already killed a comrade?”

“Killed a colleague… What is it?”

“Yes. It is clearly visible to our eyes. That you rejected the system and indiscriminately killed your fellow monsters!”

“Ah.”

Now I can see why they are taking the guard.

It squeaked from the first time.

Somehow, I thought there was no penalty for annihilating fellow monsters when doing defense quests in the past.

But the penalty was already there.

As a way to let others know that you have killed a fellow monster.

I don’t know how it’s known though.

“Humans over there, come this way. If you stick to that guy, you will only die. That guy is a killer.”

“Yes? Us?”

At the elf’s words, Sangsu pointed to himself and asked.

Then he nodded his head and spoke again.

“That guy is the guy who killed his fellow monsters in the course of the quest. You might not know it because you’re a beginner, but if you look closely at that guy, the text color will come out in red.”

“is that so?”

“That’s proof that you murdered a colleague. Come on over here.”

Through the elf’s words, Seongjin could understand why they were acting so troublesome.

In the end, they act to save the constant party.

And it also meant that Murder had not yet been marked.

“go.”

“still….”

“It’s okay. I’m not going to attack you for nothing. I’m going too.”

Sungjin said so and lowered the hand he had raised.

The elves define themselves as utter enemies.

But if you raise your hand and say you’re not an enemy, you won’t believe it.

“The elf boss. Can I mix things up a bit?”

“What? Murderer.”

“I understand the story you want to tell, but I also want to clear this quest. So, in the direction the enemy is coming, can I go to the gate entrance on the other side?”

“Why should we do that?”

“You have to. If you don’t, I might hit you in the back when a monster comes, right?”

“Ummm…”

“Think carefully, it’s easier for you to put your enemies in one place. On the other hand, you might surprise me. Let’s think rationally.”

The elf was worried after hearing Seongjin’s words.

Is it okay to let him pass through the forest like this?

Listening to him, his words were very valid.

Perhaps the trick he spoke of was the way he dealt with fellow monsters.

However.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

However, it was not good to follow his instructions.

Because I don’t know what the plot is going to be.

So.

“…you may pass.”

“It should come out like that.”

chuck!

The elf jumped as high as it was once, and the trees blocking the way also slowly moved to get out of the way.

Indeed, it was like an elf controlling plants.

Sungjin admired it and walked along the newly created path.

Tock, tock-

how far did you walk

It was when I was standing in the middle of the road.

“Uh… me, that one!”

“brother!”

“Mr. Sungjin!”

Sangsu and his group each shouted.

It was also because the trees that had made their way around were returning to their original positions.

No, to be precise, it aimed at Seongjin in the center and stretched out its roots and stems.

“It’s the road to hell. Go well.”

The chief elf said so and released the bowstring that had not yet been released.

Along with him, the other elves also laid down their bowstrings.

Shoot AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The arrow split and flew high into the sky and descended straight toward the castle.

A large rain of arrows pierced Seongjin’s body.

Behind him, thick tree roots wrapped around him.

“The killer was executed.”

Traitor humans cannot be trusted.

He, on the other hand, gets in trouble when he runs away and hits their backs.

That’s why the elves chose to kill him right here on the spot.

That’s when I thought it was over.

Wrath-!

Blue flames began to flutter through the roots of the trees.

The flame spread by consuming the wood, and soon a forest fire broke out.

“I thought this would happen. Monster bastards.”

Sungjin said, burning himself out of the tree’s roots.

after.

The elves now regretted their choices and cursed them.
