CH 691 (2/2)
The D-class monster slaughter ant was hit by a knife and fell apart.
He grinned as he wiped the ant body fluid from the knife.
”Are you scared?”
I hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to answer.
In fact, to me, it is because the big-headed user in front of me or the ants passing by it look like that.
What would you think if one day an ant suddenly argued, 'Hey, come on!'?
Hearing such provocations from beings who are so weak that they would never have imagined fighting in a normal way is more than shocking, but even funny.
As I stood still, holding back my laughter, the bald player thought I was scared, so he tapped my cheek and turned around.
”From now on, keep your eyes open. If you make a mistake with the master, it will cause a lot of trouble on this floor.”
I, Yunsol, and Drake were also surprised by the spirit of those words.
Meanwhile.
The bald player who struck me on the shoulder soon started catching other ants and bees.
continuing to grumble.
”Oh man, I don't mind. You should level up quickly and catch some cool monsters. Don't be trash like this...
However, he couldn't finish his speech.
Because I was observing.
”There is nothing like garbage in this world.”
The words I said to Yoo Da-hee, who had just started the game one day, are also prayers.
Hearing my advice, the bald player wrinkled his expression as if he had heard a dog whistle.
”what? Whom is he giving advice to, heo-jeop, who can't even wear his gear properly?
Bald probably see my naked look
He seemed to think he was a newbie who couldn't even wear basic armor.
Seeing that people who walk around naked in the game don't know how scary they are, I thought it was definitely a newbie.
I recalled the words I had said a long time ago, just before the Medusa raid.
”The real world is full of garbage, but at least in this game
There is no such thing in 'Deus Ex Machina'. They say that they are all made because they have something useful.”
A slaughtering bee and a slaughtering ant, which are considered the weakest among D-class monsters.
These become food for other monsters, allowing the game ecosystem to run.
living things in an ecosystem
If these beings, which account for more than 40% of the body's body number, disappear, the world will probably be
will be destroyed in an instant.
'And that's not all.'
I pondered as I looked at the slaughter bees and ants passing by.
carnivorous ants. and slaughter bees.
Who knows that the cataclysm is caused by these little creatures that no one has noticed?
The second cataclysm is the most terrifying and terrifying of the three cataclysms.
'Well, but that's still a story in the distant future... I thought it was, but now it's right in front of you?'
After I finished reminiscing, I looked back at the bald player in front of me.
”These bees and ants are weak basic mobs, but all rankers
At the beginning of them were these guys. No player has reached a higher level without catching bees and ants. In a way, it was these bees and ants that made you who you are today. You all grew up catching these guys, didn't you?”
He said that even a thousand miles starts with one step.
There must have been a time when even the top rankers who took down big and cool monsters were newbies.
And they, too, must have been leveling up by catching these bees and ants here while relying on crude equipment such as wooden swords and leather armor.
So, treating the bees and ants here as garbage would be unthinkable for a frog tadpole.
But the bald player in front of me didn't listen to me at all.
”Oh, what kind of bullshit, you bastard. Not an ecofascist. I'm just going because I'm afraid I'll build up karma, I guess I'm lucky. If it's by nature, just don't do it.”
He walked away from me and kicked an ant walking down the street.
The bald head went away before the slow-moving ant could do anything.
”There are so many filthy things, these scum. Ah- I want to catch dragons and demons as soon as possible!”
continuing to grumble.
Meanwhile.
The number of bees and ants roaming the field was still very high.
And there are so many newbies who catch them.
I shook my head.
”Ah, newbies these days don't know how to thank basic mobs. I mean latte
”Hey, you look a little nerdy.”
”Keukkeuk, I still think you're right!”
Drake and Yunsol also nod their heads looking at the newbies.
The surrounding piles of dirt and crypts,
Yoon Sol, who was examining the colony of mushrooms growing on a huge scale, once again expressed his doubts.
”But I really don't understand. How could such low-level players come to such a remote, large colony? There is a 'Meat Boiling Jungle' or 'Heavy Jungle' in the middle. There are a lot of powerful monsters like me, harpy queens and twinhead ogres. How did you get through them?”
But I didn't feel like I had to answer.
I glanced towards the front.
”I”
Then, Sol Yun also quickly understood what I was pointing to.
There, several players riding on camels, horses, and lizards stood with free expressions.
”Taxi~ Taxi~ 990,000 gold from the anthill to the beginner village~”
”Bus is recruited! Departs when all 30 people are full~ Youth will be discounted~,”
”Good morning! It's a standard taxi! From the anthill square to the beginner village, only 1 million gold! If you come round-trip, we'll give you a discount! There are no late-night surcharges or extra-map surcharges!”
Considering the equipment and mounts, the level is quite high.
These high-profile players do not seem to need to come all the way here to catch bees and ants.
Their purpose seemed clear.
That's the 'transport'.
