Chapter 42 – Change of composition (2)
‘How can I just receive it?’
After catching his breath, Serenian lowered his bow in front of the dead enemy.
There is no kindness in the world without a price. If you have such a favor, you should rather doubt its intention. Because it is the wrong relationship between the giver and the receiver. The same goes for divine help.
The help of the spirits was never infinite without cost. The elves who immigrated here had a duty to survive, and they had already heard from the priest of the spirit that fulfilling that duty was the way to repay the help of the spirit.
A helping hand descends from the sky whenever it is needed, but this new world can never accept only that and live a peaceful and calm life. Pioneering and conquest, of course, requires a lot of effort and blood.
“As you all know, our foundation is the will of the 12 fairies who were born to protect the world tree that attracts the evil ones. We have been a battle and a war since our birth. A long peace will last, and even if we changed, the fundamentals would not have changed.”
Serenian opened his mouth, looking at his people who were focusing on him. He felt like he had to tell them this feeling he was feeling now before he could go any further and fight.
He said, “They say it has to change, but in fact it doesn’t really change either. It just goes back to the beginning.”
“You are right. It’s time to reawaken the old root… Sleeping in our souls, Chieftain.”
Fortunately, her remarks, which could have been somewhat radical, had the power to draw sympathy. It was because of her thunderbolt floating next to her and emitting sparks, but it also meant that the image she had shown so far and the help of her spirits shook the hearts of the elves as much.
When Garmin, the warrior in charge of the battle, took the lead and agreed with her opinion, the other elves’ eyes changed.
“Keep going. The labyrinth is deeper, and there are more enemies left.”
After a brief rest, the elves moved again. Towards a deeper and larger labyrinth different from the anthill.
“Ren, I think it would be good to send a divine beast to see what is there.”
However, she moved cautiously, mobilizing all possible means before going deeper.
As Seunghyun advised on how to deal with it, Ren sent one of the two drones that flew reliably flying in the air with bright flashes first, and tried to explore the inside first.
“I’m entering now.”
Len’s voice trembled as he gripped her controller. I’m proud of the eyes of adults, but it’s just as burdensome. But she couldn’t be shaken by that. She herself is definitely a member of the raiding party, and everyone’s lives are in danger if she doesn’t do her job properly.
“It seems that the inside is also the same cave after all. However…”
“Very spacious.”
Inside the screen where everyone is concentrating. At the end of the passage that appeared there, a vast expanse of space appeared. It wasn’t even completely pitch black.
An underground world where several huge houses can fit. When the luminescent stones embedded in it illuminated the interior, its majestic scale was revealed.
Excluding the one where elves are now entering, there are countless passages leading to the enormous scale. Everyone who watched the scene on the screen, even Serenian, was at a loss for words.
“Joe, Chief. At first glance, it seems like too many. And it’s too big. I can’t guarantee if we can kill all of them this time.”
With everyone at a loss for words, one of them opened his mouth with a somewhat pale face.
Serenian couldn’t deny that. The enemies just glimpsed on the screen seemed to number in the hundreds. In addition, there are many passages that have not yet been observed. If you add the enemies that will be there, it could go up to a thousand units.
“Why don’t we occupy and maintain this place as originally planned? Fortunately or unfortunately, even though they know we’ve come this far, they don’t seem particularly interested.”
Gamin, who noticed, suggested a compromise. It was the opinion that we should fold it once here and prepare more next time to completely penetrate it.

‘Too slow.’
And Serenian was in conflict. Lee Sung said that Gamin was right, but the feelings boiling in his heart insisted that he fight more.
“Hmm?”
However, it was at that time that Ren, who had left the discussion to the adults and watched the screen intently, discovered something.
While carefully observing the demonic daughter-in-law, Ren saw another type of demonic beast he was all too familiar with. Just a little different.
“Look at this. A monster ant!”
Ren showed it to the adults.
Intuitively, I was convinced that I had to inform them.
“Beast ants. But why are they?”
Serenian saw it and widened his eyes.
The scene seen on the screen was because of the beast ants that the elves had fought so fiercely with, passing between the beast bugs and feeding them.
It wasn’t just about feeding them airlifted food from somewhere. When Serenian saw that one of the ants came with a white egg and fed it to the mutant pill bug she had just been dealing with, she felt a sense of alienation.

“It’s a complex dungeon. A super-large dungeon with multiple dungeons united into one. Actually, it’s hard to even call it a dungeon. Too big.”
“Complex Dungeon…Before. Hear for the first time That there is such a world.”
Serenian got out of the dungeon once. However, unlike before, he tried to defend the occupied area by leaving part of his troops inside the dungeon.
I made a simple fortress by inserting a shimpin spear into a narrow passage and making a barricade.
And as soon as I got out, he radioed me and told me what he had seen. Things I’ve already seen roughly.
“Complex dungeons are not something that can be conquered overnight. Since it is a place where many dungeons are united, you have to attack each dungeon one by one, which is spread around a huge hub. That huge cavity I just talked about is the hub.”
I taught hunters what is basic common sense.
I don’t know why the dungeons that appear on Earth appear in the world inside the flowerpot, but I have to deal with them first.
“It’s amazing how the hell you know that so well, but I’ll get it right now. Still, if that’s the case, I think there’s hope.”
“Actually, I am more curious about the relationship between the witch beast daughter-in-law and the beast beast ants than the structure of the dungeon.”
As soon as she understood and understood her, I changed the subject of her while watching her linger at the entrance of her dungeon.
The changed subject was the strange sight she observed before leaving the dungeon. It was a relationship in which the demon beast and the demon beast daughter-in-law coexisted in that huge dungeon and one side was unilaterally exploited.
“There is nothing strange about it. Monsters, no matter what they do…”
“Because they don’t seem like simple monsters. Especially the ants.”
Serenian didn’t seem to feel much, but I was different.
Because I can see the fact that there are actually two types of bugs that appear in flower pots, which are huge by the standards of elves and are less than 1cm tall.
“Those ants may not be witches. It won’t be under the control of the Witchbeast.”
As I was able to see emerging information, I saw that those ants were different from the beast ants that I had been tired of seeing.
That meant that the ants were literally just ants. It’s still huge, but that’s just because the elves are smaller than them.
“Of course it would be just a beast. Come to think of it, it doesn’t make much of a difference whether it’s a magic beast or not. Isn’t it an enemy you have to fight and kill anyway?”
“Oh, no. It would be a different story if they weren’t the monsters who hated and were hostile to us until now.”
But when I thought about it, it didn’t seem like a big deal, so I was going to ignore it, but Serenian’s eyes widened as he understood my words.
I still didn’t know what those elves were like.
“Communion with spirits, which have been with us from our roots, is an ability that all elves possess. However, each clan has one more specialized ability, and the ability of us Great Forest Elves is the ability to communicate with nature’s flora and fauna. Although that ability, like spirit magic, has become extremely rare over the years… Nevertheless, there are still people with that ability like spirit magicians.”
“Then what about those ants?”
“Worth a try.”
I could hear the excitement in her voice. She was worried about fighting huge enemies, but she seemed to think that maybe a solution could be found.
“Who has that rare talent?”
“Ji, now only the ex-Chief Urea is imprisoned.”
However, the opponent was a bit bad.
