1st place in the ranking is the villager

– Volume 1 Episode 18

18. Black Heaven (1)

Arriving at Reva, which is located right next to the swamp where Black Lizardmen live, Hoya moved toward the eastern gate as he had heard from Moan in advance.

It was a much busier road than Reform, but it didn’t feel the same as when I first arrived at Reform.

Because this is a game, not reality.

They don’t do any real harm to me.

no interest in me

“We’re looking for a priest to hunt in the dark swamp! We have all the tang deals, so we’ll start right away! You can hunt for 4 hours and use a fixed pot!”

“We will do it at 60% of the average equipment repair price! It’s a blacksmith quest!”

“Is there anyone who has built up intimacy with the guard NPC! If you connect me, I will pay for the effort!”

“I’m looking for a tank to hunt with!”

In front of the alumni gate was full of players.

Hoya passed them and went out the east gate to the hunting grounds.

[King: Brother! What are you doing now? Can we meet at the fountain in the square for a minute? please!]

Then a whisper arrived from King.

Hoya couldn’t help but be embarrassed by his whispers.

[Hoya: Uh… I’m not Reform now.][King: No, bro! Because it’s easy to talk to! Isn’t it more Reforn than that? Are you out hunting for iron bores? It would be quicker to just buy it at the auction house!][Hoya: I am Reva now.][King: Yes?]

After that, King’s whispers stopped for a while.

[King: Uh… Then there’s nothing I can do about it. Have fun!]

“…are you in Leva right now?”

“what?”

Seol-young Baek, the guild master of the Seol Baekho guild, and her game nickname, Seol Bek, she couldn’t hide her absurdity now.

“No, I said that I was hunting with you until yesterday? But now you’re in Leva? Did you even use a warp scroll?”

“I don’t know that either.”

After finishing the important quest she was working on and writing the Warp Scroll, she was the Snow White who flew to Reforn, but Hoya, the purpose of her coming to Reforne, was not in Reforn.

The opponent had rejected King’s invitation before, so he came to show his sincerity and sincerity, but the important person was not here.

He should have whispered to the King before tearing up the warp scroll, but he was so time-pressed that he skipped that process because he was going so fast.

Rather, it has become a meaningless waste of time.

“Master, then it would be more efficient to move to the next place than to stay here.”

“I know, I know… haha, it’s a pity.”

“…I honestly don’t know why Master is so obsessed with villagers.”Reicer, the deputy master of Snow White, who almost always moves with Snow White, honestly couldn’t understand her.

He knew that the villager who had been on the list had now become a celebrity without even revealing her face.

However, that alone is not a reason to cling to the master of Seol Baek-ho, who fights for the first and second place in the Korean guild, moving directly to catch him.

“It’s because you can’t see the video. If you see it, you’ll be just like me, right?”

“Is that enough?”

“Yeah, that’s about it. I’ll send it to you later. … At that level, with that skill and power, it’s going to be quite difficult to recruit later instead of now.”

Snow White never exaggerated.

Rather, he belonged to the side of the Yabak.

When she spoke like that, her Rister also grew a little more interested.

“But practically, there is no time for the Master to personally visit him and recommend him. It’s still the time that he barely subtracted.”

“Um… Homin-ah. First, by sending whispers frequently, build friendships. I’ll give up today and try again next time, huh?”

When Snow White reached that conclusion, King raised his hand.

“Yes! Me! Me!”

“what?”

“Isn’t it better if I go now?”

“Yeah, no. Raise the level.”

“Chiit……”

“You can’t take it off.”

Snow White and Reister disappeared as they tore the warp scroll.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaah!”

As soon as a black lizardman with a scimitar in one hand saw Hoya, it screamed and ran towards him.

Black Lizardman is the first monster.

If they make even a single clattering sound in a wet swamp, they hear like a ghost, and the guys around them gather directly to the source of the sound.

Thanks to that, it was a place that did not require much aggro skills to attract monsters.

But he was also an extreme hunting ground, where if he was unlucky, more than ten would flock at a time.

They are the ones who give you a lot of experience.

Scratch!

“Whoa…”

Hoya looked around after dealing with the last Black Lizardman who was running at him.

There were only two scales of the Black Lizardman lying around.

Even if I purposely made a noise for an hour and caught the ones that were drawn to the sound, I think I passed 20 easily.

Emotionally, it feels like it doesn’t come out any better than the Giant Golem’s core.

So far, I have collected a total of 8 scales while catching Black Lizardmen for several hours.

It feels like it will take a few days to reach the target number of 50.

Hoya moved to the swamp, hoping that it would be a good option as it took that much time to procure materials.

When I checked the time, I thought it would be okay to hunt for an hour more.

how far did you walk

Hearing the cries of the Black Lizardmen from the front, Hoya climbed up the tree from the ground and moved by stepping on the branches so as not to make a rattling sound, narrowing the distance from the sound.

I wanted to fill 10 of them today, so I moved quickly and the Black Lizardmen came into my sight right away.

It will be quicker to take a surprise attack if there are already a lot of them, rather than making footsteps and dragging them along.

But there were passengers.

A party of five people was already hunting the Black Lizardmen.

Since he had no intention of doing Monster Steel, Hoya tried to find another Black Lizardman and move again, but the situation was strange.

“Heal! Hurry up!”

“The cooldown isn’t over yet! Please take a shift and drink the potion first!”

“Damn it!”

“Fuck! Where did all these bastards come from!”

The player in the priest’s uniform was at a loss for what to do in the rear.

Next to him was a woman in a robe, lying on the floor, motionless.

The condition of those who were protecting the vanguard by protecting them also did not look good.

It seemed that the three of them were taking turns taking turns playing the role of tanks, but it seemed very heavy.

There were still five Black Lizardmen in front of them.

It seemed like I should have helped.

Given the circumstances, it seemed unlikely that I would ever hear a monster still sound later.

Still, in case of any unforeseen circumstances, Hoya started recording a video.

It was something he had learned from his friend during the cold days of his life.

After that, when Hoya came down from the tree and tried to act, undead monsters such as skeletons and zombies suddenly began to spring up from the ground.

“What else is this!”

“Ah… how do you deal with the death penalty…”

“I haven’t heard of undead coming from here!”

When they saw the undead, they screamed in frustration, but their faces, which were stained with frustration, turned bright after a while.

The undead that rose from the ground began to attack.

It was not the players who were attacked, but the Black Lizardmen who surrounded them.

Only then did they realize that things were going strangely.

“What is this…”

When the undead, who knew how to attack them, started attacking the same monster, they even felt embarrassed.

However, among the trees, a woman with a cane raised her head, and they understood the situation and were able to relax their tense bodies.

The Black Lizardmen also began to be bitten by the undead, and after a while, they all turned into light and disappeared.

“Everyone, are you okay?”

A woman with her head sticking out from among the trees approached and asked how they were doing.

Her party, surrounded by her Black Lizard Man, looked at her almost as if she were looking at her goddess.”Go, thank you…! Thanks to you, I lived.”

“Fufu, say nothing.”

“Are you a Necromancer by any chance?”

“Yes it is.”

“That’s amazing…. that you can summon this many undead at once… It must be a necromancer’s hidden job.”

A necromancer, a profession that commands the dead and the undead.

As she stepped forward, seeing the undead paving her way, they assumed that her profession was a necromancer, and their guess was correct.

“No, it’s not hidden. It’s just an ordinary Necromancer.”

“Wow… Still, this number of Undead… It’s amazing, really.”

“Whew.”

Her face, which was smiling like an old noblewoman, quickly changed to a mean smile.

“Aren’t you all idiots? There’s no way that all of these numbers were just my summons, right?”

“Yes……?”

The party was taken aback by the sudden change in her mood.

Hoya, who had missed her timing and was still watching the scene without getting out of the tree, was also embarrassed to see it.

The woman smiled and beckoned, revealing several men in black robes down to their hoods from among the trees.

On the left chest of their robes, there was a mark painted in common with a black cloud in a white circle.

The party’s face was stained with frustration, just like when they were surrounded by Black Lizardmen.

“B, Black Heaven…….”

The guild ‘Black Heaven’ to which players such as dark knights, warlocks, and necromancers belong.

They were famous in many ways.

First, it was the fact that the guild master, Dino, was the ‘agent of darkness’, the necromancer’s hidden job, and the second was that they were a PK-specialized guild.

All players in Black Heaven were either Bankao or Cao players.

In other words, the people with the mark of Black Heaven in front of them were all Kao users, PK criminals.

“Let’s see~ Since we saved you, can you give me the price of your life? As the price of your life, if you give out the weapons you are wearing now, I’ll send it to you.”

“Chloe-sama, aren’t you so kind?”

“After all, our Chloe-sama is an angel. How do you think of receiving only weapons?”

“Fufufu, thank you for all the compliments~.”

“Ooh, don’t be ridiculous!”

The person standing at the front of the party with a large shield and blunt weapon reacted to Black Heaven’s conversation.

At that word, the friendly atmosphere of Black Heaven quickly cooled down.

“What’s funny? Hey, if you have a brain, think about it. Isn’t it cheaper to get a single weapon than to die here, lose experience, drop items, and get 2 days of access restrictions?”

“Chloe-sama, don’t do that too much. They’re stupid, so you can’t count.”

“Yeah. I’m smart enough to understand idiots.”

It’s a shame to receive only weapons and send them away.

It would be more truthful to say that the cat guards the fish shop.

Sunghoon cursed inside and clenched his teeth.
