Chapter 228: Area B Cleared
‘What?’
Allard thought.
‘Even if they infiltrated…’
If the Kyrad Faction’s detachment did not come, Soo Hyuk decided to infiltrate in the opposite direction. But even if he infiltrated, he shouldn’t be coming from there.
Where did they come from? It is the main outpost of the Kyrad Faction.
It is not like there are multiple paths leading to there. It is only one.
In other words, the fact that Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung were coming through that road meant that they had penetrated the main camp.
As soon as he thought about it, he got goosebumps all over his body. Allard breathed deeply to calm himself and left the base to meet them. He wanted to hear their explanation of the situation as soon as possible.
____________
“Why the hell did you send the signal to retreat?”
Elogatan asked Elami with narrowed eyebrows.
He did not understand the retreat signal.
It wasn’t that he was being pushed back in battle. And they were not fighting for a long time.
“Right now, there have been raids from the Amiletta Faction. Redkros wants you to come back right now.”
“What?”
At Elami’s answer, Elogatan asked with a surprised expression.
“Are they attacking? Did they flank us?”
“Yes.”
“Huh, was that what he meant?”
Elogatan recalled the conversation he had with Allard.
He thought Allard was just saying it so he would lose focus.
“But how did they attack?”
Elogatan was curious about how the Amiletta Faction attacked?
“They appeared through the warp gate.”
“What? Then there are only 10 people. Did that force you to order the retreat?”
Elogatan frowned.
“Outpost 5 has already been hit. And Riinka-sama…”
Elami blurred the end of his words.
“Riinka-sama was hit?”
Elogatan couldn’t help but be surprised.
It was surprising that Outpost 5 was attacked, but it was even more surprising that Riinka suffered.
“Yeah, that’s why we are thinking of sorting things out first.”
The conversation ended with Elami’s answer.
‘Riinka-sama…’
Elogatan moved forward with her thoughts. It was so shocking that Riinka was defeated.
Riinka, who is one of the strongest in the Kyrad Faction, was defeated?
‘Who the hell came?’
“Huh?”
Soon after arriving near the outpost, Elogatan woke up from his thoughts and tilted his head.
“… what?”
And he looked at the outpost with a puzzled expression. Black smoke was rising from all over the outpost.
“Didn’t you say that they appeared as a warp gate?”
Elogatan asked Elami.
“Yeah.”
Elami replied with a bewildered expression.
“What is that situation?”
The outpost should not have looked like that.
Only 10 people can go through the warp gate at a time.
No matter how strong the ten people are, they would not have made the situation like that.
Of course, it was by no means impossible.
There was only one situation that could have happened.
‘No way Amiletta is here…’
It was when Amiletta the ruler class demon appeared.
If she is here that is possible. Thinking up to here Elogatan speeded up and ran to the outpost to assess the situation.
Finally, he arrived at the outpost.
‘A human?’
On the other side, he could see a human riding a wagon.
_________
“Ah, that’s how it happened.”
Allard nodded as he heard the explanation. Then he looked at Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung with respectful expressions.
‘They are amazing!’
If Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung had not come from the realm of the Kyrad Faction, he would never have believed them. It was so absurd.
“Then we will go to Zone A.”
Soo Hyuk got up from his seat and watched the quest ‘Break the Wings’.
{Break the Wings}
There are 8 zones A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H between Ilom and Alin.
Among them, C, D, and Vote, the central areas, were controlled by the Amiletta Faction.
However, they were unable to advance to Alin Castle.
The Kyrad Faction took control of areas A, B, G, and H, which can be called wings.
Because.
Drive out the demons of the Kyrad Faction in areas A and B!
[Area A：X]
[B area: O]
Quest Reward: 500,000 Contribution
They did not completely drive out the demons in zone B. However, it was changed from X to O, either because they destroyed the outposts or because they killed the commander Redkros.
The completion conditions have been met. They no longer need to be in area B.
‘If only the main base in Area A was destroyed…’
Soo Hyuk smiled softly.
It is unknown whether wiping out the base or killing the commander is the quest completion condition.
However, where there is a base there is a commander.
In other words, if only the main camp was destroyed, the quest completion condition would be satisfied.
“Thank you very much. Thanks to what you did we were able to turn the tide of war.”
Allard got up from his seat and bowed his head to thank Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung.
“No problem. Of course, that’s what we should do.”
Soo Hyuk replied to Allard’s words and opened the door.
He came out of the tent with Yeon Jeung. Then summoned his ghost wagon.
Yeon Jeung was in the driver seat, and Soo Hyuk got on the passenger seat, opened his inventory, and took out the map.
It was to check the road to area A once again.
“We can go west.”
After checking the route, Soo Hyuk put in the map while Yeon Jeung started driving.
“Thank you so much!”
To Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung who headed towards the west entrance, Allard bowed once more to express his gratitude. Allard did not straighten his back until Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung disappeared.
“Haragan.”
And with a wide smile, he called for Haragan.
“Yes.”
Haragan, who was bowing down as well, replied then Allard continued.
“Prepare to go out.”
Soo Hyuk said that he killed most of the high-ranking demons in the main camp.
No, he said he killed them all, but there must be some they missed. But it doesn’t matter.
Many high-ranking demons must have died. Above all, their head Redkros died.
The absence of higher-level demons and the absence of the chief. They can push now.
Moreover, Area C was almost entirely dominated by the Amiletta Faction.
What if they get help from area C? They will be able to get it back in an instant until the middle.
________
“Is it going to be over soon?”
“What?”
Soo Hyuk answered Yeon Jeung’s question.
“The auction.”
“Ah.”
Soo Hyuk sighed and checked the time.
‘It’s already over.’
It was already six o’clock. There were only two hours left until the auction ended.
“Are you going?”
Yeon Jeung asked.
Currently, Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung were on their way to the site of Area A.
“No.”
Soo Hyuk shook his head. He can receive gold at any time. The important thing now was the finish of area A.
‘How long will it take?’
Soo Hyuk thought about how long it would take to achieve the conditions in Area A.
‘As expected, if we just destroy the main camp, it will happen soon.’
They just need to find the main camp. The outposts are connected by warp gates anyway, so you only need to find one outpost.
‘I’d rather go to the front.’
Finding an outpost is not difficult.
Perhaps you could find out right away if you went to the initial area of Amiletta Faction A.
“I think it will be over at 10 o’clock at the latest. What should we do? Personal maintenance? Or should we just get the next quest and move on?”
After thinking about it, Soo Hyuk asked Yeon Jeung.
“Why don’t you decide after knowing what kind of quest it is? I think he will give us another quest like breaking the wing if we finish this one. If it’s the same quest, we will put it off until tomorrow, and if it is a quest we can do today, we will do it.”
In the Kyrad Faction, besides A and B, G and H were completely controlled.
Obviously, he would give another quest like ‘Break the Wings’.
“Okay.”
Soo Hyuk nodded his head. And after some time, they were able to arrive at the initial site of the A area.
“Welcome Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung!”
The demons guarding the entrance bowed their heads and greeted them. Apparently, information about Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung had already been delivered.
“I will guide you right away!”
The demon soldiers began to move in the lead, and Soo Hyuk followed behind them to arrive at the outpost commander Lipta’s tent.
Did you feel Amiletta’s magic emanating from the mark? A demon wearing luxurious armor walked out of the tent.
Unlike the demons I’ve seen so far, it looked quite old.
“Hello. My name is Lipta, the manager of Area A.”
Lipta continued after greeting Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung.
“Please go inside.”
At Lipta’s words, Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung got off the carriage and followed Lipta’s guidance into the tent.
Entering the tent, Soo Hyuk took out Cranosson’s letter from his inventory.
“Please have a seat.”
“Here it is.”
And the moment Lipta offered his seat, Soo Hyuk handed out the letter.
“This is a letter from Cranosson.”
After receiving the letter from Soo Hyuk, Lipta started reading it right away.
It took a long time to read, then Lipta looked at Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung and said with a happy smile.
“It must have been difficult to help us as humans. Thank you.”
“No problem.”
As in the case of Allard, Soo Hyuk shook his head and went straight to the point.
“I have one question.”
“Yes, go ahead.”
“Do you know where their headquarters are?”
“The headquarters?”
Lipta had no choice but to question Soo Hyuk’s words.
Why suddenly asking about the main base?
“Surely…”
Then after a sudden thought Lipta continued with a nonsensical expression.
“Are you planning to break into the main camp?”
“Yes.”
Soo Hyuk nodded at Lipta’s question.
“No!”
Then Lipta said in a panic.
“The main camp is too dangerous.”
Even though it is Soo Hyuk who is strong enough to catch the Barlogs, attacking the main camp directly was dangerous.
There were a huge number of demons there. And high-level demons too.
“Moreover, if you came through Area B, you would know that if you go deep you will end up surrounded by the demons of the Kyrad Faction in Area B as well.”
Soo Hyuk thought as he listened to Lipta.
‘Oh, they don’t know yet.’
He just cleaned up area B. That fact was not delivered yet.
“You don’t have to worry about area B.”
“Yes?”
Lipta questioned Soo Hyuk’s words.
“It’s because we just came back from cleaning the Kyrad Faction demons in Area B.”
“Clean up?”
Lipta asked the question again because he could not understand what he was hearing.
