Chapter 481 Ant Cave (2)
Park Gi-tae is a guide.
Although he was not specialized in combat, he had his own firm standards while fighting numerous battles.
‘Hunter’s rating is absolute.’
Grades S to F.
Over the past 20 years, people have divided the ratings in detail, and the ratings that can be considered simple at first glance were the result of the world putting their heads together. There were no exceptions.
Those who qualified for the promotion showed skills beyond that grade, but those who repeated their steps in the Hunter database clearly revealed the disadvantages of being in that grade somehow.
Hundreds of battles.
It was a conviction gained through experience.
If it’s an F grade, there’s a reason why it’s an F grade, and if it’s an E grade, it’s an E grade.
So, I didn’t expect to attack the anthill from the beginning, and I was sure that the will of the two people who didn’t even know the subject would be broken on their own in a single battle.
right there. I was thinking of doing my best in moderation as long as safety was guaranteed, but I was embarrassed by the series of scenes Kang Min-ho was dealing with ants.
‘… Is this grade E?’
beyond common sense
Soldier ants are D-rank monsters.
In the first place, if you have the ability to defeat him, you shouldn’t be E-class, but Kang Min-ho showed an overwhelming appearance against not one, but dozens of soldier ants and worker ants.
That meant that it was D-class or higher. It’s not just a step beyond the D-class barrier, it’s a step that crosses the C-class area.
It was shocking.
I should have known right away if I had that kind of skill in Incheon, but I saw a person named Kang Min-ho for the first time in my life.
Kwadeuk.
I broke the ant’s head.
It was a perfect victory.
It seemed like Kang Min-ho was saying something to him, but he couldn’t hear those words now.
‘It became clear with just one battle. I don’t know why Kang Min-ho stays in E-rank, but he’s beyond my expectations in terms of combat. Especially the dash and the strong. Although they are well-known skills, they showed completely different powers to the point where I doubted if they were the same skills I knew. It means that Kang Min-ho’s skill utilization is extraordinary.’
Park Ki-tae did not know.
only one month.
The fact that it is a result obtained in a short period of time.
Kang Min-ho was clearly equipped with skills worthy of an E grade, but he was completely changed with just one teaching.
In fact, it was a natural result.
People say that Dmitri’s tradition is very special, but Roman Dmitri was Dmitri himself.
A force that collapses the rating system.
It’s embarrassing now that people don’t know of his existence, but in the not too distant future, Roman Dmitri will overturn the standard of common sense.
Park Ki-tae was emotional.
The battle is over.
Normally, I should have run away by now, but after seeing Kang Min-ho, I changed my mind.
‘First of all, it’s been proven that these people aren’t babbling. If you really have the skills to subdue the ant nest… … This is a golden opportunity to make 300 million won.’
of course.
It was still not enough.
Kang Min-ho alone would not be able to handle all the ants, but the part Park Ki-tae paid attention to was Roman Dmitry.
Roman Dmitri and Kang Min-ho are clearly divided up and down.
Seeing a talented person like Kang Min-ho follow Roman Dmitri, it seemed like he had something special he didn’t know about.
believed
This was an opportunity.
Park Ki-tae chose to stay differently from his initial plan.
* * *
Park Ki-tae said.
“From now on, you have to choose. As you go inside, the number of ants will increase, and it is impossible to escape due to the geographically limited nature of the ant nest. It’s just a skirmish. If you don’t have the confidence to deal with the waves of ants, now is your only chance to live safely.”
It was heartfelt advice.
however.
Roman Dmitry and Kang Min-ho had no intention of stepping down.
They chose to keep going, and as a result, the battle was repeated as Park Ki-tae warned.
kyaaak!
Kyaaaaagh!
The ants came running.
They showed their ferocious teeth to the beings who invaded their territory, and as in the beginning, only Kang Min-ho stepped out while Roman Dmitry and Park Ki-tae were watching.
I have confidence now.
At first, he had doubts about whether he would be able to deal with the army of soldier ants and worker ants by himself, but once he confirmed his skills, he slaughtered the enemies without hesitation as if he gained momentum.
puck.
Kwadeuk.
Blood spattered.
I slashed each step I encountered.
Kang Min-ho’s power itself was not much different from a month ago, but the explosive power from Sura’s mental method showed a completely different result.
It was a new world. The more the battle was repeated, the more excited he was.
suddenly.
He thought he wanted to take the promotion test as soon as he returned.
‘When I first took the promotion test, the examiner in charge of me said that. The future of those who qualified as hunters at that age is obvious. Unless he gets a strong chance from the beginning, he lives a life of solitude and then dies from a monster. That’s why it’s better for Hunters to give up.’
That’s not wrong.
If he hadn’t met Roman Dmitri, he would have died a miserable death like the judge warned him to live in an E-class situation.
So I wanted to prove it. A skill that is not pushed even when dealing with dozens of ants. How would the judges evaluate the present self?
Of course, that was a later issue.
I knew very well that I could discuss the future only when I solved the problem I encountered.
‘ said Roman Dmitri. I will come forward in situations where I can’t handle it. So there is no need to be afraid.’
gritted it
beyond the dark
The ants ran incessantly.
It felt like walking on thin ice, but strangely, I wasn’t afraid.
kyaaak!
Kyaaaaagh!
A bunch of ants appeared again.
Kang Min-ho rushed towards them without hesitation.
* * *
Things went smoothly.
Park Ki-tae felt strangely ominous now that he had come quite deep inside.
‘There are fewer ants than I thought. If the two queen ants have produced ants continuously for the past month, there must be a number of ants living in this ant nest that I have never experienced before. But so far, I haven’t deviated much from common sense. No, it’s worse than an ant nest with a single queen ant.’
It was definitely strange.
ant nest.
It is a hunting ground that people avoid.
This hunting ground, where ants were infested in the tunnels, never easily allowed people to come.
It was then.
“I found the nest of the queen ant.”
A distance of 100m.
A huge space was discovered by search magic.
In the ant nest, there is a space used as a nest for the queen ant, where the queen ant constantly lays eggs.
From the beginning, the destination was the nest of this queen ant.
No matter how much you kill ants, if you don’t deal with the queen ant, it was a key factor in subjugating ant nests to the point that there is a saying that it is a dodol table.
I erased the anxiety from my mind.
No matter what variables there were, once they arrived at the nest of the queen ant, it was no different than having a high ground in front of them.
took a step
yet.
A huge space was revealed.
Not only Park Ki-tae but also Kang Min-ho reacted in surprise at the sight of being sucked into the sight.
“… this.”
“and.”
There were ant eggs everywhere.
It was a stupid choice to stay here for a long time, considering that the number was uncountable and that the ants hatched in less than a day.
However, Park Ki-tae once again felt ominous.
The feeling, more intense than before, said what the source of the anxious mood was.
“It’s kind of strange. The number of ant eggs that a queen ant can lay in a day is at most one hundred. However, at first glance, there are more than a thousand ant eggs that can be seen. It makes no sense. The meaning of having so many ant eggs at the same time… … .”
swallowed the horse
This is only possible when dozens of queen ants exist.
It didn’t make sense.
Incheon Mayor Kim Jun-hyeok delayed subjugation with only two queen ants, but the existence of dozens could not be accepted by common sense.
Park Ki-tae had never heard of such a precedent.
Since ant nests are common hunting grounds around the world, even in a chaotic world, there were standards of their own.
It was then.
Gul-gul-gul-gul.
The ant eggs were shaken.
It was bigger than the other ant eggs, and it started to crack and something popped out.
Kwajik.
It was a front paw.
After making a hole with its front paws, the ant exposed its face.
Moment.
Park Ki-tae widened his eyes.
body of ants.
It was the queen ant.
* * *
The queen ant.
Its existence was a mystery.
It is known that among countless ants, a queen ant hatches with an extremely high probability, so this should not have happened in this place where two queen ants already live.
The problem was not only that. While Park Ki-tae was staring blankly at the other ant eggs, ants in turn penetrated the eggs and came out.
kyaaak!
“… This kind of nonsense.”
His eyes trembled violently.
It was the queen ant again.
Even three were not enough, four or more queen ants appeared from the ant eggs that continued to hatch.
I got goosebumps.
situation in front of you.
There was only one way to explain this.
‘Could it be a premonition?’
catastrophe.
Before the world turns into hell, portents foretelling cataclysm occur several times.
It is a warning to prepare for a cataclysm and another hell.
There is no other way to explain the existence of dozens of queen ants in an anthill at the same time, other than the precursor phenomenon, as the precursor phenomenon completely breaks the existing common sense.
That is to say.
Material desire was wriggling in this place where people’s eyes could not reach.
If subjugation of ant nests had been delayed, Incheon would have been attacked by ants before long.
The thought was over there.
Suddenly, screams were heard from all directions.
tat tat tat.
kyaaak!
Kyaaaagh!
It was the sound of ants flocking.
Park Ki-tae’s complexion turned pale at the terrifying sound of at least thousands rushing at him, which was incomparable to the previous one.
“You also have to run away. If it is a precursory phenomenon, we cannot handle it alone.”
I hurriedly searched for it.
I pulled out a teleport scroll and held it in my hand, but despite Park Ki-tae’s urgent voice, Roman Dmitri remained calm.
“It’s up to me to decide whether or not to handle it.”
“Damn it.”
He spat out curses.
They were crazy babies.
Although their skills are better than expected, it didn’t make sense to stop the portent phenomenon with just the two of them.
From the precursory phenomenon, it is a problem that must be dealt with at least in the city unit.
Even if you were a B-class or higher peak hunter, it was impossible to survive the attack of the ants that were about to come.
My mouth was dry.
My body trembled.
I wanted to keep my loyalty, but I couldn’t do it this time with death right in front of me.
Didn’t Roman Dmitry say that?
I won’t hold you accountable.
“… I’m sorry. I am really sorry.”
I closed my eyes tightly.
Aww.
I just tore the scroll.
Park Ki-tae could not open his eyes until the teleport was over due to the light that wrapped around his body.
* * *
Anger.
thud.
The teleport coordinates were Incheon.
Park Ki-tae, who appeared in the new space, hurriedly got up after confirming that he was safe.
‘It is unavoidable for two people to die. But the premonition phenomenon is a different matter.’
survival of the two?
It is impossible.
Park Ki-tae has already made the deaths of the two a foregone fact because it is a futile hope to hold out even for 10 minutes against thousands of ants, which may be more than that.
The problem was the prognosis.
It is clear that the size of the disaster will increase due to the queen ants that continue to be born, so for the safety of Incheon, it was necessary to subdue the ant nest somehow, even at the risk of life and death.
“You have to tell me this.”
I hurried my steps.
where he is headed
The destination was the Incheon government.
