Ch 159
“I don’t know what would happen! But it’s best to avoid that madman’s weapon!”
“Madman!”
The bottle of liquid shattered as those bastards were shouting.
They were worried that a big explosion would happen, but was that all?
“S-S-Sasuke-nim…”
“Yes, Gaeryong.”
“Quick, we have to run fast.”
“What?”
“If my prediction is right, that probably is……. Vam-”
However, the words of the Dragon Knight’s guild master could not be completed.
The bright red liquid that came out of the broken bottle was— Shuwaak! It began to spit toward the sky like a fountain.
It was not a huge amount, but what was more amazing was that it was forming a certain shape.
“-pire’s blood. And what the Alchemist uses is……”
“Huuu, huuu, a blood golem came out-!” The bright red blook took on human form To be precise, it flowed in the shape of a human.
“And all the iron golems that assist the vampire count, rise!”
And Crowley moved and raised his hands like he was dancing.
In line with his rhythm, light flashed from the fallen Byeolcho Alliance guild members who were beaten by Ram Hwajeong earlier.
With a cracking noise, the armor, shields, and swords on their corpses were crushed together and also began to take on human forms.
“The commander of non-human army…… ‘Mad Commander’ Crowley!”
“Kuhahaha, I really like that nickname. It’s even better because there are a lot of free materials on the battlefield!”
One of the reasons why Necromancer Faust and Alchemist Crowley had a bad relationship.
Crowley, who creates golems based on the property of the material, utilizes items worn on corpses.
However, Necromancers also use corpses. And he raises the corpses to make them his own soldier.
In other words, the two had no choice but to be antagonistic with each other as they do not want to share the same materials “Master. It was as we thought.” “Okay. We have confirmed in, so it’s okay” Sasuke and Hyein’s eyes met as they faced Ram Hwajeong.
They failed to catch their target, but they didn’t seem to mind it.
“Everyone retreat. Retreat! Retreat! Back off! There’s no point in fighting! Remove the space lock and everyone escape!”
“Ara? You shouldn’t leave! The battle has just begun-! Garaaaa一!!”
As Crowley raised his arms and move them like a conductor, the golems started running
“W-What are those?”
They couldn’t believe he could create a golem……
And Leeha had been watching the figure since a while ago.
He thought about what he had to do as Ram Hwajeong might be really hurt. It was no wonder that there were [Outsiders] like that.
‘I can’t see Kijeong. He didn’t come?’
He waited at the place where Holy Grill predicted the ‘battlefield’ would be.
Thanks to Madame Ju’s highly accurate information, Leeha arrived just as Ram Hwajeong and Dragon Knights was just about to fight
and he could watch the battle from start to finish.
Kijeong’s figure was nowhere to be seen on the battlefield that was turning into a mess.
“It’s good that the surprise attack was successful, but after getting hit like that, they won’t be able to move for a while- hmm?”
Leeha was trying to analyze the battle in his own way when he felt something move in the thicket in the distance.
He was quite far from Tygonas Hill. It was not a place where one could easily see the battle.
However, Leeha was a sniper. He certainly ‘felt’ the difference in the spot where something was invisible.
‘What? Who.. is there?’ It was not visible to the naked eye.
Leeha lifted the Hummingbird and carefully examined the spot against the scale. His vision got sharper but he still couldn’t see it.
It was natural that ordinary users would not be able to see it.
‘Eagle’s Eye! Maximum magnification!’
The distance narrowed in an instant.
Leeha’s were focused on one side of the grassland with some trees and bushes that it would be embarrassing to call a forest.
Leeha looked around at the maximum magnification, but it was difficult to confirm the movement he had just felt.
‘What? Is it a monster? No, is it a user that is hunting nearby?’
However, it was stranger to see that. If it was a user, he should have noticed Leeha ‘beforehand’.
There were a lot of shiny items such as armor, helmets, and swords. It would be difficult to hide in that thicket.
Then this would mean…….
Wriggle.
‘Camouflage……! It’s camouflage!’
Wriggle, wriggle, Leeha finally caught the movements.
Once he found it, he looked at it attentively.
A military-colored camouflage mixed with earth, green, and black. There were at least two people wearing camouflage and watching the battle.
‘That kind of cloak…… No, wait. That cloak……
When Leeha fought Rising Sun
He disguised himself using natural objects or darkness. Because he couldn’t afford such professional item
The words camouflage cloak flashed in Leeha’s mind.
‘In the capital,
they wore a camouflage cloak and blended in the city!
The follower who revealed the guild mark of Hwahong guild?!
Leeha concentrated his eyes. As the space lock was released and Byeolcho Alliance retreated, the battle came to an end without Crowley being able to show off.
‘One.. no, two. They change direction.’ Two men laid on down in the thicket and turned to crawl.
Rustle, Rustle, Their cloaks flew open for a moment when they moved. Leeha did not miss the momentary gap.
“There’s none……
I didn’t see it wrong. The Hwahong guards did not have any guild marks, it was the same for Hwajeong and the Alchemist Crowley.
“There’s no Hwahong guild mark……. Who
are they?”
It meant that a third party watched the battle. In a very professional way.
Leeha crouched and crawled slowly.
In Tygonas Hill, where all the members of Byeolcho Alliance have disappeared, only Crowley’s shouts were heard. Leeha moved towards the thicket he had just seen.
‘There is no camouflage cloak in Middle Earth. They were not sold in the Tailor Shop, the ones he used was made by using mud, branches, and camouflage cream. X
A professional camouflage suit that could completely blend in with the surrounding, like the protective color of a chameleon. Leeha knew that Middle Earth did not sell such items.
‘In other words, someone made it.’ Even the color combination was very professional.
It could blend in the city as well as in the meadows. If one was Korean, one would know a bit about it because one would have gone to the military, but what if it was a civilian abroad?
‘It couldn’t be made willy-nilly. Such a professional camouflage, even removing the crawling sound……
One would conclude that they have used it more than once or twice. And in this situation, Leeha had no choice but to think of one assumption.
‘What if these guys were the ones who came in the capital and showed up in front of me?’
At that time, there was a Hwahong guild mark, so he thought it was Hwahong. After that, when Ram Hwayeon came to see him, she did not know that Leeha and Kijeong were acquaintances. It was only for a moment but she had a surprised expression.
‘Right, she was definitely surprised. Ram Hwayeon was surprised. So Leeha thought the follower did not tell her. ‘Because he didn’t know me.’
He wasn’t holding a musket so Leeha thought that the follower did not recognize him.
However, now that he thought about it, something didn’t add up.
The follower would not have known Leeha, but what if he took the screenshot and reported to Ram Hwayeon? If it was her, she would definitely recognize Leeha
In other words, if Ram Hwayeon was surprised, it meant that she did not receive any report. And that person was not from Hwahong.
‘What if he’s not from Hwahong? Then who is it?’
Leeha felt goosebumps all over his body.
What was the identity of the follower that appeared in front of Leeha and Kijeong in the capital? For what purpose did they appear like that?
‘Just like how the camouflage cloak was made, the guild mark of Hwahong was roughly the same……. what if it was dyed?’
It was possible. Leeha had not yet found a way, but if it’s a tailor who made clothes professionally, it was possible.
Besides, what about the fast movement of the follower? Although Kijeong recognized it as Hwahong,
it might have been possible that only the thigh part was died red and had induced an optical illusion.
‘ And if he ran away after hearing ‘Hwahong’, Kijeong would misunderstand and follow him.’
Leeha was less than 300 meters from the bushes. His Eagle’s Eye skill had already been deactivated, but he could still see them.
As if afraid that they would get caught, they moved extreme vigilance, so their speed was slow. An ordinary person would have been unbearably impatient.
No Leeha was almost certain. They have been trained professionally.
‘Hmm? They are taking out a scroll.’
It was not possible to change the color of such items.
Leeha was not able to see their faces, but he recognized that they pulled out a piece of brown paper.
Shuwaak-!
After getting enough distance from the Hwahong guild, they tore the scroll and disappeared.
Neither Ram Hwajeong nor the Alchemist would have known that they were observed.
“Hmm……
It’s now time to disappear.
Hwahong began investigating whether Dragon Knight and Seomgwang only appeared in Tygonas Hill for a trap or if they had something to do here.
It would take a little longer.
‘But before I leave……
I need to check it. Leeha took out
a map.
[Beginner’s Marking (Lv. 9)]
Effect: Highlight and mark the target’s movement in the map(2/3)
‘Okay, they did not use anti-marking.’
Was it because they were sure that the camouflage would not get caught?
Or was it that they can’t easily get a marking prevention system?. Anyway, Leeha was happy.
‘This one misjudgment will make you regret it forever.’
The experience of fighting a life and death battle against Wild Angels and Rising Sun brought back Leeha’s instinct.
The thorough sniper started moving again.
