The place where the ‘Long Fang Orc’ came out was in the upper reaches of the Tanumine Valley.
The place I went with Sisala to rob ＜The Magic Workshop Encroached by Evil＞ is the end of the valley, so there is a considerable difference in location.
Also, unlike the downstream side, which was like a wasteland, there was still some water flowing on the upstream side, so there were grass and trees.
However, it was just a bit lively, but topographically, this side was much worse.
“That’s why the bottom is so dry.”
Dojin shook his head as he watched the water being sucked into the crack.
For some reason, the upper reaches of Tanumine Gorge had the worst topography, with some places sinking, some places rising, and the ground cracked here and there.
“ha… … .”
The thought of catching 500 long-fanged orcs in a place like this was already bleak.
How many days will it take? It would be a miracle if it was completed within three days, Do-jin thought.
‘What can I do? If it’s black, I’ll have to.’
Let’s finish what we have to do anyway as soon as possible. It was Do-jin who made up his mind, but in less than an hour, he was in a position to sit down and rest.
I climbed up a steep wall about 5 meters high. Then the floor went down again right away? I had to climb down 7 meters holding onto a tree trunk.
I thought it was fortunate that the terrain was a bit flat. Until you see a cliff 10 meters apart standing in your way. Thanks to that, I had to have fun climbing the wall again to go back far.
Since it was all like this just by moving a step, the physical strength and mental strength consumed by the movement itself was too great than the difficulty of fighting monsters.
“… I feel like throwing up.”
The feeling of getting motion sickness with your feet on the ground even though you are not on a boat.
‘If I want to try a little more and it doesn’t work, I’ll have to summon anemones.’
No matter how good the fuel economy is, a supercar is a supercar.
Anemone was too much to use as a simple means of transportation.
It would be like moving while spilling mana on the floor.
However, if it was this rough, wouldn’t it be considered that the movement itself was a battle?
Do-jin endured a little more, and at the moment when it seemed to be difficult, he contrived to summon anemones and run rough terrain.
But before that.
“Let’s rest a little longer. I’m really going to follow this.”
I needed more rest.
No matter how high his stamina stat was, Do-jin was a wizard.

When Dojin continues to grapple with the terrible terrain of Tanumi’s upper reaches.
There were quite a few groups gathered outside the valley.
The leader leading them was the Blood King, a person who was entangled in a bad relationship with Dojin.
“Are you sure you went in this way?”
After the Haberkan disaster, the Blood King tried to find Dojin with all his might.
The bloody guild, of course, released money and even put up a bounty.
However, it was not easy to find Dojin.
There were too many LOST users, and Rostania was vast.
In addition, in the midst of that, it was almost impossible to track Dojin because he wandered only in places where the user had not reached.
‘드디어 찾았다, 이 개새끼.’
In the end, the King of Blood had no choice but to change the way he found Dojin.
Since he is a magician, he had released surveillance personnel in Zeern with the hope that Zern would stop by at any time.
Enduring the long wait, the King of Blood had to suffer from various stress-related diseases.
They said that when a relative buys land, it is a human being who gets a stomach ache.
However, since the King of Blood had to hear the news of the success of Do-jin, who was no different from his enemy, how could he be in a good mood?
‘You can giggle until today. Starting today, you will become a prey pursued by us.’
The Blood King gnashed his teeth and prepared a lot.
Throwing away the image of Hogu that he and the Bloody Guild had acquired.
On the contrary, to plant an image of a wriggling prey in that damn Do-jin.
Popularity is also an image fight.
Right now, he is flying as an unrivaled wizard user, but the true nature of a popular monster is that he quickly falls into the abyss once he starts to stumble.
‘If I kill him just three times, that guy will be finished.’
Hunt the enemies of the bloody guild. No, the bug execution ceremony will be very nicely edited and released to the public.
Then even the bloody guild will be able to shed its Hogu image and find its former glory, albeit notorious.
No, it will be more than that.
The prey will benefit from having grown so plump in the meantime.
“Guild leader, shall we enter right now?”
A guild member who talked to me while thinking.
The Blood King answered with his gaze still fixed in front of him.
“No, not yet. This hunt should be certain. For that reason, we can’t create a perfect siege with only our guild members. call those bastards They found their prey.”
“Are you talking about the sidebars?”
“okay.”
“All right.”
What the guild members described as ‘Jjokbari’ meant the ‘Nangin’ guild, which was mostly Japanese.
They were also grinding their teeth because their guild members were cut by Do-jin in the past, so they were in a state of bloodshed and hand-to-hand for revenge.
After a while, the guild members reported again.
“They say they will send the elite strike force within 2 hours.”
“2 hours?”
A frowning Blood King.
But I couldn’t help it.
Gathering scattered guild members together in one place is not an easy task.
Like the bloody guild, it was inevitable that it would take this much time, even though he was hanging around expecting Dojin to appear near Zern.
“Sluggish bastards. I can’t help it. Once they enter and exit the valley, they block the hole and wait, and when the island monkey cubs join them, they start hunting.”
“Yes, I will place the children right away.”
Nodding his head, the Blood King felt his heart beat.
The sadness and anger of the past and the anticipation of the exhilarating revenge that will happen in the future made his heart beat rough.
‘Somehow I feel like today is going to be the best day of my life.’
빌어먹을 새끼는 저 밑으로 굴러떨어지게 만들고. I’m ready to fly up there.
A chance to show the idiots who called me a hogu what kind of guild is really bloody and what kind of person a man called Blood King is.
The Blood King gave strength to the hand holding the sword.
* * *
Finally, those who had a grudge against Dojin gathered in one place.
After thoroughly blocking the way out of the Tanumine Valley, they calmed their breathing while holding their weapons.
“Can I start right away?”
The Guildmaster of Blood, the Blood King, asked the guildmaster Nobunaga, who was standing next to him.
Nobunaga, who named the virtual reality after the surname of a feudal lord of the Sengoku period, nodded.
“We were already ready the moment he pointed his sword at us. I just couldn’t find an enemy to kill.”
“… … .”
The Blood King frowned as he watched Nobunaga speak while holding his weight. He drew out his sword and said.
“Then, let’s say that 50 people from each guild are equally recruited to form the siege.”
“If that happens, the number of slaughter units to be sent into the valley will be greatly reduced, won’t it?”
“If you add up the number of people mobilized by the two guilds, you and we, 250 people. Even if you exclude 100 of them, the number of people is 150. It is a number that is too much for a single wizard to hunt. As long as you block the hole through which it escapes, catching and killing the baby mice in the dock will be no task.”
Nobunaga thought for a moment, then nodded in affirmation.
“Good. Leave the relatively low-level guild members outside, and only select the best to form a killing squad.”
An agreement was reached between the two guilds, and an operation plan was quickly established.
Although it was a rule of thumb, both the Blood King and Nobunaga thought that this was enough.
A total of 250 people were put in to catch and kill one person, but would it be difficult?
“Start entry.”
The Blood King began an exciting revenge play.
* * *
There were quite a few monsters in Tanumi’s Valley.
There are slime types that represent beginner prey, there are beasts, and kobolds and goblins are not uncommon.
Since the only place with water around was the upper part of the valley, all kinds of monsters flocked to it in search of water, forming an ecosystem.
The sad thing was that the long-fanged orcs that Dojin had to catch accounted for only a fraction of the many monsters.
If the total number of monsters created in Tanumine Valley is 100, long-fang orcs account for 2 to 4 of them.
In other words, I had to face 100 monsters to be able to fill in only 2 to 4 quest monsters.
“I’m tired and bored to death.”
If you’re bored, you should be at ease.
This damn valley was a place where people’s blood was dried by the terrain.
There was no particular reason for the popularity of the monster to hit bottom, even though it was near a large city called Zerne, and there were monsters that were perfect for beginners to catch.
“Five!”
The eyes of Do-jin, who was walking with eyes more open than the dead Dong-tae, suddenly came alive.
They saw two orcs drinking water by the rippling water.
Not one, but two at the same time!
Excited, Do-jin immediately tried to send the two orcs to the underworld amicably.
But at that moment.
“Ha!”
Something poked out from the slope behind the orc.
Not one, but three.
Dojin unknowingly corrected the aiming point reflexively.
‘Ah, it’s f*cked up.’
After belatedly confirming the identity of the protruding object, Do-jin urgently exclaimed, realizing that it was a person and not a monster.
“Careful!”
I tried to warn them as quickly as possible, but alas, to no avail. The “flame spear” shot by Dojin narrowed the distance to the target in an instant and landed.
It was a perfect aim, a clean hit.
‘f*ck.’
Do-jin, who was suddenly in a position to hit people first, became dark at the thought of resolving the situation.
By the way.
“uh?”
Something was strange.
‘Why is that bastard pointing at me with a bow?’
At the same time as the thought, the battle experience accumulated over a long period of time sounded an alarm.
to live
Dojin’s body leaned to the left.
green onion.
Two arrows pierced where Dojin had been.
Pak.
After rolling his body, Dojin raised his head and thought.
‘I’m glad I don’t know what it is!’
In the meantime, the one who had been hit by the flame spear staggered to his feet.
Stand up after being hit by my magic? To Do-jin, who had the same idea, a tanned guy shouted as if chewing and spitting out.
“sh*t-like bastard! Today, I will cut off your limbs and throw them as dog food!”
uh? Where did you see him?
It looks like an overcooked steak, but the face is familiar.
‘Ah, isn’t that the idiot who was in the abandoned iron mine at the time?’
He is the one who has lived the longest among the strange kids who are ronin or tramp.
Dojin smiled brightly and said.
“Hey, nice to meet you. As I live, there are times when I am glad to see the youngsters who came to me for revenge.”
thank god. I thought I was in a hit-and-run accident again.
yes, it was nice Good bye then.
Looking at the two shooting arrows at the string and the nameless idiot (Kato) grabbing the sword, Dojin quietly whispered.
“anemone.”
