Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 351

Episode 351 Moving Giants (1)

“It’s definitely not a normal distribution.”

Song Sang-baek, who entered the base without any difficulty, was once again surprised by the very existence of this base runner.

This was an area not far from the territory of Sangvis Castle. Although it was not a particularly busy area, it was an area with a moderate population density and was not completely devoid of people.

Even though such a large base was built in such a place, it was not noticeable thanks to the geographical features. When viewed from in front, the base running was quite large, but when viewed from a few blocks away, its presence was so faint that it could easily be overlooked. It blends in well with the surroundings, as if looking at a pine tree far away.

“To set up a secret branch of the Uicheon Alliance in a place like this…”

Song Sang-baek chuckled without realizing it.

Certainly, Lord Uicheon is different in this respect. This is because neither he nor Hwang Gon ever thought of using this base as a watchtower to set up an intelligence station right in front of the enemy.

To be exact, I thought about it several times, but never dared to put it into practice. In that case, I thought it would be beneficial to raise one more elite soldier.

It was the difference between Song Dong-baek, the leader of the Sa faction, and Dam Sa-yeong, the leader of the political faction.

“Hmm, that’s right.”

Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes turned to the stairs.

The five-story base was more spacious than expected. As it was used as a secret bunta for Uicheonmaeng, the stairs also looked solid.

‘Sandalwood (white birch)?’

A strange look appeared in Zhengmeibaek’s eyes.

Although it was not flashy, there were objects made of sandalwood throughout the base, which had an old-fashioned feel. From what I could see, it seemed like they were replacing it with a new one every time.

‘It’s amazing.’

The bark of sandalwood contains a lot of oil, so it catches fire easily. To prepare for an unexpected situation and burn down the entire base, sandalwood objects were placed at each main axis of the base.

It wasn’t normal sincerity. It was a very simple, but surefire tactic to destroy the evidence.

‘It’s worth it.’

They are not in a position to criticize each other for violating morality by having a building like this in the first place. All they do is attack and kill and burn everyone as soon as they find them.

Know in advance and destroy the enemy before they attack. I could feel the venom of the informants who were determined to return alive even if it meant burning down the entire building.

‘He even tells me about the existence of this place and asks to meet…’ No

matter what he proposes or what he asks for, it won’t be normal.

Revealing the existence of one hideout is like revealing that there are many other hideouts. After today’s meeting, Zhong Zhenbaek will survey all the areas around Iron Blood City.

Of course, the other person would not know that either. This was why I was looking forward to today’s meeting and also worried about it.

Song Geum-baek, who was looking towards the stairs, opened his mouth.

“Is it okay for me to go up?”

An old, grumpy voice came from the top of the stairs.

“If you wish, I will come down.”

“Sure. “Because it’s safety first.”

“Huh, that’s right.”

Squeak, squeal.

I wonder if the sound of stepping on the stairs can be so tense.

Walking down step by step was surprisingly refreshing. I couldn’t even imagine that it was the gait of an old man over 70 years old.

Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes deepened.

‘It’s different.’

The world that Ha Soo sees and the world that Go Soo sees can never be the same. Before he could feel the vitality oozing from the old man’s steps, he could smell the bloody smell hidden there.

There won’t be many people who directly kill people. At least it was clear that he was a person with less blood on his hands than he did.

Instead, this person hurts people just by existing.

He was a man who started a war with his three-inch tongue and looked into the world with wrinkled eyes. He was famous for being a ferocious politician rather than a martial artist.

‘It’s like the footsteps of a lion.’

There was a great feeling in the refreshing yet heavy steps.

Just like that, an old man came down to the first floor.

“Wow, that’s surprising.”

“What do you mean?”

“The world says that the Iron Blood Lord is the embodiment of bravery. I didn’t believe you, but now you see. “I thought he would be extraordinary, but I never thought he would retain such spirit at his age.”

Zheng Zhongbaek smiled.

“That’s too much praise. “That also exceeded expectations.”

“Hehe, in what part is that so?”

“You are called Emperor Uicheon, the leader of the political faction, but people who know you say you are a serpent with the body of a dragon.”

“Huh! That’s really embarrassing to hear. How about meeting him in person? “Do you look like my snake?”

“No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like a dragon, but it doesn’t look like a serpent either. “It’s like a dragon, much bigger than a dragon.”

“haha! Since he went from a serpent to a dragon, isn’t this a compliment that will never come again? “I feel so much better.”

A sense of composure was evident from his grinning face.

No matter what he was feeling on the inside, he didn’t show any signs of being offended on the outside. It can be said that a meeting of such giants is natural, but just from the sound of laughter, Song Zhengbaek clearly realized that the opponent was not an easy one.

‘A person who must not show any loopholes even for a moment.’

Zheng Zhongbaek pointed to the table with his hand.

“My legs are quite sore from coming all the way to the ceremony. “Let’s sit down.”

“Oh, I didn’t properly consider Seongju. “Let’s sit down.”

Two people sat down at a table next to the window.

The eyes of the two people looking at each other with their backs straight were very contrasting. While Song Sang-baek’s eyes were fierce, they contained a gentle calmness, while Dam Sa-yeong’s eyes were soft, yet contained fangs that belonged to some kind of animal.

“I have prepared tea, but I don’t know if it will suit Seongju’s taste.”

“It seems like just yesterday that we were chewing rice balls that fell on the dirt-dry ground. “Don’t worry about that.”

“Hehehe! “I heard that the lord of the castle had an eventful life.”

After a while, a woman came down from this floor carrying a tray.

Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes lit up.

“Did you ask a master of his caliber to bring tea?”

“What do you think? “It was what he wanted, so I had no choice but to grant his wish.”

“It was a breeze to bring tea?”

“To be exact, they say it was a lifelong dream to see Seongju.”

“I guess so.”

Song Sang-baek did not bother to ask who the woman was.

The woman who put down the tea on the table bowed politely and stood behind Dam Sa-yeong.

“It’s none other than Yongjeong (??). “It depends on the lord of the castle’s taste…”

“I’m sorry to interrupt you, but this person doesn’t really want to have a personal conversation.”

“Huh.”

“I don’t know what the intention was, but I feel quite uncomfortable just knowing that such a secret bunta was set up so close to the main castle. “If you weren’t Lord Uicheon, you wouldn’t have come here.”

“Hehe, I guess you’re angry.”

“It has to be that way.”

Although he says he is angry, his expression is full of composure.

Dam Sa-yeong felt the composure of a strong man when he saw such a remittance bag. In politics, there is nothing more foolish than revealing one’s true intentions, but the remittance bag was different.

It shows an ambiguity that does not hide who it is, but does not know where it will turn out. However, because he is full of composure, he seems more picky than any other person I have ever met.

‘It goes without saying that in order to become the chairman of a group, whether political or non-partisan, one must have the necessary abilities and formality. Even though he is a Sapara who succumbs to power, this person who started from the bottom and rose to the top is also not lacking as a loser of the times.’

Damsayoung nodded.

“It is natural that Seongju Song is not in a good mood. But I also have no intention of apologizing.”

“I know.”

There are only differences in methods, but war involves using any number of techniques to defeat the opponent. Although he couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable, Song Sengbaek understood Dam Sayoung.

“So tell me. “Why did you bother to call me to this unpleasant place?”

“Hehe, straight to the point… Okay. Let’s do it.”

After taking a sip of tea, Dam Sa-young spoke in a deeper voice.

“There is a vicious devil shaking the midfield recently. “I’m sure Seongju knows.”

Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes sparkled.

“Are you talking about Western Sogyo?”

“That’s right. “I’m having quite a bit of trouble because of that annoying devil of mine.”

“It has to be that way. “Not only was his individual ability outstanding, but there were also many people who supported him.”

“It’s support… I guess the Lord of the castle also intervened?”

“exactly. You contacted me without hesitation and asked me to meet you, but didn’t you show me the spirit that I liked? “I was very curious about how far the young prince of magic would be able to advance, since both sides were aiming for the world anyway.”

“Are you trying to infer the power of magic by watching its movements?”

“It had that meaning as well.”

Song Sang-baek smiled cheerfully.

“When the world is in turmoil, everyone is given equal opportunities. “How could I refuse if I wanted to create the chaos myself?”

“Hehehe.”

It is an ambition that is revealed without hesitation.

Dam Sa-young had to laugh at that honesty and confidence.

“So, in the eyes of the lord of the castle, what did that devil’s actions look like?”

The remittance bag was clearly said.

“It was the best.”

“It’s the best.”

“No matter how much the Four Factions Alliance supports you, and even if an intelligence group called Hao Wen acts as your hand and feet, it will be difficult to find someone who can shake up the world as much as Xu Xiaoqiao. “I must confess, I wonder if that is even possible for me.”

“Hehe, you are too humble.”

“It’s true. Although Seo So-gyo is a small master of the Heavenly Demon God Church, I think he has already shown himself to be a great master. “Whether it is martial arts or other abilities.”

“You seem very impressed.”

“Don’t you think so, Lord?”

Damsayoung shook her head.

“I think differently.”

“How do you view it?”

“At least, if that devil had not headed to Shandong, he would have been evaluated the same as Seongju.”

Shandong.

When the area where they could touch each other’s sensitive parts was mentioned, Song Zhengbaek’s gaze deepened even further.

“Are you disappointed that Seo Xiaoqiao went to Shandong?”

“I’m disappointed. If it were me, I would have pushed back against the main alliance even more along with the Anti-Jeonghoe. And when the time was right….”

Dam Sa-young smiled.

“I guess they tried to attack your home castle directly.”

He suddenly says something dangerous.

Song Zhengbaek chuckled.

“If you’re going to have an accident, it would be better. However, if the situation is like that, there is a risk that nature and deaf training will come into contact. “In Seo Sogyo’s opinion, the demand is sufficiently unstable.”

“If you want to create real chaos, shouldn’t you take that risk?”

“True chaos?”

“If something like that happens, the Demonic Cult will not be sitting on the mountain with a heavy butt.”

It was the bloodiest word of any conversation we’ve ever had.

Song Sang-baek looked into Dam Sa-young’s eyes and realized that she was speaking with sincerity.

‘What a scary old man.’

If we want to turn the world into a real turmoil, not only we but also the demonic religions must break out.

I know, but Zheng Zhongbaek asked once again.

“Do you really want that?”

“Of course. “That’s why.”

“…?”

“I took some medicine myself.”
