The Last Adventurer

Chapter 121 – . Magatia (1)

5.

El Palm, after 10 minutes the choice he made was none other than his position.

“Going in.”

Of course, that decision wasn’t just a agonizing thought in my head.

In the first place, El Palm wasn’t the type of person to worry about something like that for 10 minutes.

I knew that even if I thought about it that way for 10 minutes or 100 minutes, I wouldn’t get a proper answer.

For 10 minutes, El Palm was investigating.

He explored the surrounding area a bit more.

“It’s likely to be 27. Also, their skills are excellent, but not overwhelming. They have a good chance of winning.”

When the answer was reached, El Palm took the stand without hesitation.

And he was the first to enter.

“Oh, you came in.”

The second was Devo.

“Thank goodness.”

“Ah, you came in. Tsk.”

Then Ralph appeared, and after him Miner appeared.

The last one was Kiri.

“That’s fortunate.”

The first thing Kiri let out when he entered like that was a sigh of relief.

“Yeah, that’s good. Some people might not have been able to get in.”

Because all five of them managed to get in.

And after I breathed a sigh of relief, what I saw at El Palmar Party was a surprise.

“Boss, you’re amazing. You really got it right.”

As El Palm said, since there were less than 28 people who entered here, all five were able to enter.

Because it was a feat I had never seen before, to be able to accurately determine the number of adventurers just by looking at their traces.

Of course, it was nothing special for El Palm.

It wasn’t really anything that could be called a talent.

Because it was just a talent that I acquired naturally while surviving.

And now it wasn’t really a very important talent.

“Start exploring.”

“yes.”

The first thing we had to do now was to more clearly identify the intruders who had entered here.

“First of all, the area is an oasis.”

The view from the first floor that was immediately visible was an oasis.

It was an ordinary scene.

And it was a favorable view.

“There are footprints here.”

Because in places like an oasis, traces are left very easily.

Moreover, most adventurers did not bother to hide their traces at Mystic Gate.

Because there were many times when I was confident that there was no pursuer.

This was the case in this case as well.

“You’re moving very openly.”

There were signs of movement everywhere, and everyone’s expressions, including Divo’s, hardened at the fact.

It’s true that they don’t try to hide their traces, but moving so openly is a different story.

“It’s clear that these are no ordinary guys.”

Usually, I moved cautiously to avoid the threats of monsters.

The fact that they were moving so openly meant that they were confident that they could hunt any monster that came out.

And the meaning soon became apparent.

Traces of battle appeared.

“This…….”

“Sand mole.”

Sand mole.

A monster that lives in the Nihal Desert, it is like a mole that moves through the sand, just like its expression suggests.

If you put it this way, it would look like an ordinary mole, but to the adventurers of the Nihal Desert, it could be called a nightmare.

“This guy is a total hitter.”

First of all, it was a mole that could move freely underground, so it was very difficult to hunt.

No matter how strong the magic, sharp the sword, or powerful the bullet, it was not easy to penetrate the ground.

And the claws and strength of the sand mole, which digs through the solid ground so easily, were more than the adventurers had imagined.

The strength of its body, which withstood the tremendous pressure felt underground, also defied comparison with other monsters.

That wasn’t all.

“If we meet in a place like this, the ground will collapse.”

The most troublesome thing was that as the sand mole dug, the ground beneath it became weaker and eventually collapsed.

Adventurers were taken aback by the sudden appearance of sinkholes, and some even got injured.

It was bound to be a headache in many ways, and especially as the number increased, the risk increased significantly.

That was why El Palm Party’s expression was stiff.

“But there are a lot of their corpses here.”

Because hundreds of corpses of sand moles were now strewn around El Palm Party.

“There are no adventurer bodies.”

While catching this huge number of sand moles, the adventure suffers no casualties.

“I wonder how you caught it.”

It’s so hard to even imagine a hunting scene.

Of course, El Palm was different.

He already knew the answer before he even saw these corpses.

“It’s poison.”

How they hunted sand moles.

“Is it poison?”

“The venom of the red scorpion.”

“yes?”

Even the identities of those who used the poison were identified.

It wasn’t difficult.

“Can you figure that out?”

“It’s hard to achieve this level of effect with just poison attribute magic. That means they prepared the poison separately. There aren’t many groups that have such effective poison against sand moles. In particular, if you look at the corpses of dead sand moles, they didn’t die instantly from the poison, but rather died from additional attacks while their bodily functions were disrupted by the poison. That’s one of the characteristics of scorpion venom.”

Given the various circumstances, the possibility of the Red Scorpions being Germany was very high.

“If you’re here, the green scorpion must have come.”

“What if it’s a green scorpion?”

“The adventurer who is best at clearing green-grade Misty Gates within the Red Scorpion.”

And the Red Scorpions were most likely sending the surest card they could here.

“oh my god.”

His colleagues looked surprised at that explanation.

I didn’t expect the Red Scorpion to appear here.

Of course, El Palm was different.

He wasn’t surprised by the appearance of the Red Scorpions.

‘After hearing Oz and my conversation, there probably wasn’t much time to organize a party right away.’

El Palm moved faster than ever before, without even recruiting additional members.

For those who learned of the conversation between Oz and El Palm through spies, this meant that there wasn’t much time given.

In that situation, asking the Red Scorpions for help was, in a way, a reasonable decision.

‘It must have cost a huge price.’

Of course, unless the Red Scorpions are stupid, there is no way they would move under just any conditions.

‘I don’t know who it is.’

Also, what we really need to find out is who hired the Red Scorpions. They were the masterminds.

The worries ended there.

El Palm didn’t worry any further about the background.

“It won’t be easy.”

What we have to face right now is that we have to deal with the Red Scorpions.

“If you are the green scorpion of the red scorpion group.”

And the opponent was a very scary one.

“Your name was Kimar, right?”

Green Scorpion Kimar.

Of course, there are 5 circles.

“Active in the Nihal Desert for 30 years.”

But what was even more frightening was that the green scorpion Kimar was an adventurer with a great career.

Before the appearance of Mystic Gate, he was a core member of the Red Scorpion Group and was active for a long time.

The person who fits the word “veteran” better than anyone else.

“I know it’s very cruel.”

And during that long period of time, he was also a man who gained a reputation for cruelty.

It was not an easy fight in many ways.

“Boss, you think so?”

That’s why.

“lucky.”

“Right? Lucky, huh?”

El Palm, he said he was lucky.

“Oh, no, what did you say?”

“What the hell are you talking about?”

Of course, this was something El Palm’s colleagues could not have even imagined.

“You’re saying I’m lucky to have met such a monster?”

El Palm explained it calmly.

“I will do my best to conquer it.”

“yes?”

“If it’s the Green Scorpion Kimar, we’ll be able to conquer it without much trouble. We just have to follow along.”

“ah.”

Only then did his colleagues understand.

What El Palm meant by luck.

Of course El Palm knew.

“The problem is the fourth floor.”

“The 4th floor?”

“I don’t know who died here, but at least they weren’t weaker than the Green Scorpion.”

There must be something out of the ordinary on the fourth floor.

“So you have to help me.”

“yes?”

That’s why.

“The Green Scorpion will need to be fully powered up to properly check what’s on the fourth floor.”

El Palm, he started to move.

6.

There was no adventurer in the world who did not know how big a difference a single adventurer’s circle could make.

“There is an incomparable difference between the 4th circle and the 5th circle.”

Of course, no one was unaware that the 4th and 5th circles were of different dimensions.

“The difference is more than a circle.”

But in reality, there was a bigger difference between the two than everyone thought.

The reason was simple.

“Most adventurers who have reached the 5th circle have only opened up to the 5th circle until they die. So, to put it simply, adventurers with 10 years of experience can’t even hand out business cards among the 5th circle adventurers.”

There are many 5th Circle adventurers with experience, and experience that is on a whole other level.

Green Scorpion Kimar did so.

He was 61 years old this year, and outwardly he looked older than that, a wrinkled old man who looked like he might collapse at any moment.

However, he was an adventurer who was once considered a genius even in the Nihal Desert, having opened the 1st circle at the age of 16 and reached the 5th circle at the age of 31.

And he opened the 5th circle and maintained his reputation in the harsh Nihal desert for a full 30 years.

It wasn’t just fame either.

In a group known as the Red Scorpions, the outlaws of the Nihal Desert, where he had incurred countless grudges and received death threats, he had never once offered his life to another adventurer.

Among those who were after his life were adventurers from the 6th Circle.

“Everything is simple.”

The secret to surviving was poison.

“Poison, just inject deadly poison.”

He was the most powerful person in the Red Scorpion Corps who could create the most lethal poison.

Of course, just being able to create a deadly poison wasn’t meaningful.

As he said, it was important to inject the poison.

That was the secret to the survival of the green scorpion Kimar.

“With this arrow, you know.”

Because he had such great archery skills that he could hit anything he saw.

It wasn’t an exaggerated metaphor.

He could guess anything he saw.

That’s why it was even more scary.

Because in the vast desert, his abilities were even more terrifying.

From the perspective of the victim, it was like being attacked by someone you couldn’t even see.

“My disciples are not as good as me, but they are also good.”

What was even more terrifying was that the green scorpion Kimar was not alone, but had many disciples with him.

There are only a handful of monsters that can survive the venomous arrows that Kimar and his disciples shoot.

Of course, that was what scared Kimar the most.

“I’m still not the only one who can find clues.”

Knock knock!

He pointed to a tiny mark on a wooden post along with the horse.

“It’s a skill that’s hard to teach right now.”

Even if you point out the trace, it is difficult to tell if it is a trace or not, it was such a small trace.

To be honest, it didn’t seem like an artificial trace. It just seemed like they were insisting that it was a trace.

“You are amazing.”

But the middle-aged man who heard the story believed it.

I had no choice but to believe it.

“You came all the way here without shedding a single drop of blood.”

It is questionable whether it is even possible to conquer the Mystic Gate, as there were no casualties or even injuries up to the third floor.

If you saw it and doubted its ability, that would be strange.

“You won’t regret hiring me.”

“Of course.”

From a middle-aged man’s perspective, it’s a situation where money is not a problem.

In fact, at this point, what I was curious about was the green scorpion’s intentions.

He too has amassed quite a bit of wealth while working as a member of the Red Scorpion Group.

It is highly unlikely that he would have been motivated solely by money.

“Kimar, I will definitely inform the queen about your activities.”

“Yes, please tell Queen Aretha about this.”

The one who moved him was none other than Queen Areda, who was already thought to be dead.

Queen Areda, she proposed.

“If I become the leader of the Red Scorpions, I will be of great help to Queen Areda.”

He said that if you help him, he will turn you into a red scorpion instead of a green scorpion.

It was a sweeter offer to Kimar than anything else, so he gladly accepted it.

Of course, the situation is more desperate than ever.

“I’ll be looking forward to it.”

Then, he appeared before them.

“This is the portal to the 4th floor!”

The fourth floor, the last floor of the green-grade Mystic Gate, and the entrance to it.

“What I saw was right. I was able to get there quickly by following the trail.”

With those words, Kimar’s smile was more confident than ever.

“Let’s finish this quickly.”

There was no hesitation for them.

I crossed the portal to the 4th floor with more confidence than ever.

“uh?”

“This?”

And they could see.

“Underground laboratory?”

The same scenery as Magatia’s underground laboratory.

“Did you come out through the exit? We were definitely on the third floor. Why?”

I couldn’t help but feel confused by the scenery.

I need to be on the 4th floor, so why am I outside?

But the confusion didn’t last long.

I couldn’t afford that.

Squeak squeak!

Because I appeared in front of them.

“Hey, Lloyd!”

Lloyd is a robot monster that can only be seen in the Magatia Underground Laboratory.
