SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 78

The end of the queen bee (1)

land of rebirth.

It was quite a distance from the crossroads. It was an area that was not even shown on the map, and at the same time it was not the name of a single place.

Because it is the name of a special greenhouse where half elves grow various spiritual plants. It is quite large and grandiose place to be called only a greenhouse, but since it is not an official hunting ground, it is not marked separately on the map, so many people are confused.

‘I’m just playing chess in the opposing camp for nothing.’

The problem was that it wasn’t just wandering around.

The fact that another field with the name of ‘Regeneration Land’ was located on the side of the Black Dragonflight camp caused a lot of disappointment. For a fairly large and important quest called a race quest, he didn’t hesitate to cross the border of the territory.

‘I’m glad it’s not that damn place.’

However, those who moved individually, those who moved in a party unit or a guild unit, all failed.

Among the Black Dragonflight, the longer you stay in the ‘Land of Regeneration’, which is closely related to the undead, the more damage is done to all living creatures.

The earth itself absorbs the vitality and strengthens the power of death.

As they were wandering in search of flowers that did not exist in such a place, it was natural for humans to wither and die and the undead would gain more power.

Because of this, it was impossible to conquer the field even though it was only level 130.

‘The question is, how do you get into the greenhouse… … .’

Knowing that, Rokhan moved southwest instead of crossing the border. He uses the rune book to move to the nearest saved place, and runs the horse again for a long time.

After a tedious sprint, he arrived at a small village of half-elves.

“stop. Who are you?”

It’s just a small town, but from the moment you enter the entrance, you’re picky. Not to mention, there were various plants grown and studied by the half-elves here.

In particular, some of the buds and saplings of the World Tree were also located here, so the nerves of the half-elves could be sensitive.

“This is a human Jean Berserker Lokan. I came here to see if there was anything I could do to help as a ‘half-elf’s friend’.”

Looking at the half-elf who was wary of him, Rokhan used his cheat key. It was to use the effect of the title obtained by achieving overwhelming results in the recognition quest.

“Jean Berserker Lokan who brought dozens of saplings of that World Tree, I wanted to meet him once. Welcome!”

‘It’s eaten.’

I knew it. As soon as he heard the story, the half-elf guard reacted immediately. The title effect was applied, and it was to build trust in Lokan.

As proof of that, when I called Rokhan, the race name was already missing.

“okay. You’re looking for help. Even if you don’t have a job, you should find it and ask for it, but I’m having a problem. Then please.”

[Remove pests][Quest]

Eliminate the bugs that appear in the half-elves’ greenhouses and provide nutrients to diseased plants.

-Completion condition: pest removal

-Differential compensation according to the number of pests and pests removedThanks to you, I was able to receive the quest immediately.

If you are a half elf, you can get the pest removal quest without difficulty even without the title effect, but if you were a race other than half elf, you would have to go through quite difficult quests several times. It is very difficult to give ‘trust’ to other races, even if it is not trustworthy.

After listening to a few rules and precautions, I was able to enter the village, a ‘greenhouse’ hidden by a large-scale illusion magic.

“Wow.”

As we entered the greenhouse, what caught our eyes were unbelievable sights. For a moment, there were trees and grass so large that I thought I was getting smaller.

Amazing scenery as if you were in a giant country.

There was also a sharp and lively gaze hidden in the great scenery that even Lokan could not easily adapt to.

[Giant Mantis of Life][Lv 121]

They were insects that grew in size together with the energy of life in the greenhouse. It is similar to the giant mantis in the shape of a praying mantis, but it is a different species. Can you think of it as a hot plate?

‘Still, it’s scary in the beginning.’

But in the beginning, it belonged to a very powerful species. It was easy to predict the movements of human or animal type monsters, but the movement of insect type monsters is not yet familiar to users.

Just because it is difficult to respond, the difficulty of attacking increases by more than 1.5 times, so it could be said to be the best hunting ground for current users.

In addition, the entry conditions are strict, so the number of users hunting must be counted in one hand.

“What are you twisting?”

But the opponent is Lokan. Instead of becoming frightened or cautious, his vision widened and his movements quickened.

Tadat!

As soon as I found it, I took a battle ax with a leaf attack instead of a snowball fight.

It would be nice to use bombing, but it was not necessary to damage the plants in the greenhouse, so he chose to attack directly.

Whoops!

The giant mantis of life quickly swung his arm to slash it, but Rokhan’s power was overwhelming. He wasn’t even a muscle-centric monster, and his slender forearm was lightly cut off even with a level difference.

The arm of this guy, whose main weapon is two sickle-like arms, was cut off, so all that was left was to open his abominable mouth.

Even he lightly grabbed it and broke it, then slashed it with an ax several times, and it quickly sagged.

[You have removed pests and pests.][You have completed the completion conditions. Return to the entrance to claim your reward. The more pests you solve, the higher the reward.]

“It can’t be.”

According to the strategy of the previous life, the more pests and pests you solve, the more rewards you can get, but the most effective way was to run and receive rewards each time you solve them.

It was a quest that could be repeated anyway, and even if it was an additional reward, it wasn’t overwhelming, so it’s hard to expect a reward for the effort you put in unless you’re very lucky.

Therefore, even if it was cumbersome, it was more efficient to hunt around the entrance and go back and forth frequently, but there were not many people who did that yet. It only became known after someone with a spirit of experimentation even made a calculation formula and published it.

“It was up to level 160.”

Also, the level of monsters appearing in this greenhouse varied from 120 to 160. Of course, death does not mean that the quest fails, but there are many people who prefer to level up safely by receiving rewards from time to time near the entrance rather than taking risks.

Of course, there were those who didn’t.

“If you catch 100 fish, there is a definite reward.”

Just like Lokan.

He had learned something in his previous life, thanks to his character who had to end when he started something challenging.

A guaranteed reward that can be obtained by killing 100 mutant bugs or recovering diseased plants. It was ‘acquisition of the desired plant’.

Of course, it was natural that items related to the World Tree could not be obtained, but it had the advantage of being able to obtain high-quality materials used in alchemy.

In the beginning, there were many people who completed the quest by solving 99 cases because the additional rewards were reduced as much as the guaranteed rewards.

“Then let’s go for a run.”

Lokan, who had set a goal, increased his speed. As he traversed the greenhouse, he began to slaughter every worm and insect in sight.

* * *

Kaang! Kaang!

“It’s a long way, I can’t stand it!”

“Be quiet! I can’t concentrate!”

Along with the sound of knocking on iron, the voices of desperate men resounded throughout the greenhouse.

Pushing a huge body in front of them is a huge long-lived beetle. The men’s attacks hardly worked because the hard shell was worn like a piece of armor.

“Brothers, be strong! Yerin is cheering for me!”

And behind them, desperately, there was a woman who raised her voice without even holding a weapon.

As a half elf, it is no exaggeration to say that her beauty with a small face, a slender jawline, a tall nose, and long ears to match her racial characteristics is of a celebrity level. It was enough to glance back at her.

Whenever she shakes her body excitedly saying that she is cheering, something swaying heavily catches her eye.

“Penetrating Strike!”

Break up!

Thanks to that support, the man who looked like an archer showed off his combination skills.

A fatal blow with the ability to pierce. It barely pierced his shell, but that was all. Even before he could deliver a follow-up shot, the furious beetle turned his gaze to him.

“Look at me! Provocation!”

When the guy turned his head, the tank hurriedly used the skill. Trying to bring his aggro back. The long-lived beetle, who seemed hesitant to see if it worked, started rushing forward.

“Uh-huh!”

The long-lived beetle was a man with tremendous power, but also defense.

The tank raised the shield and took a defensive stance, but it bounced off as if it had been hit by a car.

“One point!”

A combination skill that was activated again at that time!The arrows of the archer flew in succession aiming for the broken shell, but the aim was a miss. Because of the provocation, he twisted his body violently, so he only pounded on his intact skin, further aggravating his anger.

“Damn!”

A long-lived beetle turned and attacked the archer and the woman. To be precise, it was aimed at the archer side, but it was the female user side who got cocky.

“Divine Shield!”

“damn.”

And the unfolded shield. Probably because it was a priest-type, the shield that was clumsily spread using divine power did not face the archer, the target. He protected himself from being targeted and tried to survive.

But, as expected, the archer kicked her tongue and flew away.

To get her away from her. He himself drags all of her aggro to prevent her from harming her.

He clenched his teeth and activated the last combination skill.

“Emergency Escape!”

Whoo!

The horns of the long-lived beetle that rushed through the wind split the air. The cooldown is long, but only once, a combination skill that can save life is activated and it avoids the gnome.

And now was my chance. Aiming after the long-lived beetle that could not overcome the rushing force and continued to run, he once again measured the arrow at the demonstration.

“Damn it, avoid it!”

A figure of a man came into his eyes. A human figure staring blankly at this side of the road of the rushing beetle.

If I looked closely, I could have confirmed that it was the face I saw through the video, but I was not able to figure out that.

Before even thinking about why there are humans here, he vomited a warning that was close to screaming.

“What else is this?”

Wow!

The next moment, he pinched his ball.

In a single blow, the skin of the long-lived beetle, which had been unable to resist even with its own combination skills, was crushed and the body fluids flowed like brain water.

and silence.

It was all I could do to shake my body. In just one room, he fell into a moribund.

No, they couldn’t claim that because they left out their vitality. Because I know that it didn’t even scratch a part of the shell except for breaking it.

Thanks to that, it was none other than a female user of the priest class who reacted before them, who had a bewildered expression on their face.

“Thank you for saving me! Had it not been for him, he would have been annihilated!”

“Oh, brother”

The expressions of two men full of absurdity and sadness. How many buses they rode and brought her items to hear her call her her brother! But the first person I see is my brother

Even before their faint sound came out, the female user suddenly ran to the side of the newly emerged ax warrior, saying that they were afraid, and pretended to be soft and aroused a protective instinct.

‘What is this’

Without knowing that the opponent he was trying to fight was Rokhan, and that he had grasped all the circumstances at once.
