Chapter 126 - Pirates from the Chinese Server (2) (1/2)
“They are growing very large monster birds. These birds monitor us while flying in the sky, so if they are flying in the sky, we have to wait until dark on the nearby shore.”
Sungwoo could not figure out exactly what the Chinese pirates were doing, but it was obvious that the Chinese pirates had someone with a job that could raise flying animals.
Sungwoo nodded without saying anything.
“Let’s go, Gust!”
Beep!
The griffin, Gust, spread its wings, roaring. He ran down the road, rolling his feet, flapping his wings, and starting to push the ground. In no time, his heavy body carrying the two soared into the air.
Whoowooooooong-
His altitude rose in an instant. Suddenly, the 8-lane Kyongin Expressway on the ground looked so small.
And far away in the downtown of the Kangso District, Sungwoo noticed countless Red Orcs wriggling, entangled with each other.
“There are so many orcs out there!”
An enormous army of orcs was gathering near Anyangchon. Passing over the army of orcs, Gust flew further west.

A gray container box was placed in a corner on the northern shore near the Kyodong Island dock.
“Done!”
Jeeeeeeeng―
The lantern on the door flickered and the light came on immediately. The light pushed out the gloomy darkness around it, creating a pale shadow.
Four people sitting on the table in front of the container box turned their heads.
“Oh, are you done installing the batteries now? It’s a gloomy orange light. It looks like a very old lantern.”
“But it’s moody here, isn’t it? Man, we have to hug a woman in this mood. Damn it! Why should our leader have us not touch the prisoners here? I hear that our players in Taiwan are enjoying themselves freely now.”
“You know what? There are quite a few prisoners there that even low-level guys can play with. Hey, if we go to the mainland of Korea, we’ll also have a good chance. We can earn lots of gold and take a couple of Korean women in our arms. Don’t you think Korean girls are better than Taiwanese girls?”
Chatting and laughing like that, they filled their cups with alcohol, but an unknown, large centipede was inside a transparent glass bottle.
“Wow! It was a really clever idea to make strong alcohol with a ‘monster centipede’ egg we caught from Hangzhou. Wow, just great!”
“Still, our captain may fly the monster bird in the sky to monitor us, so look closely at the sky. If we are caught, we may have to donate the other two bottles to that drunkard.”
“Hahaha!”
The players from China completely occupied the area around the dock on Kyodong Island. They were now dispatched all over the island to monitor the coast. There were some like these players who were idling their time away instead of doing their jobs.
“By the way, don’t you think we are better off after we were kicked out of the mainland? It’s much more fun for us to beat the local players here like this than fighting those monsters on the mainland. Don’t you think so?”
“You bet. Besides, we are gaining lots of gold. I think our leader…”
At that moment, the man wearing a ponytail raised his hand.
“Wait a moment! Shush!”
There was a moment of silence. He put down the glass with a frown. Then, he put his right hand on the dagger on his waist and stared at something.
“Hey, there seems to be something out there.”
“Really?”
“Are you hearing anything? Where is it coming from? I can’t see anything.”
Other players found nothing. But they trusted the senses of this guy with the ponytail.
His job, “hunter,” gave him senses that far surpassed those of an ordinary man.
“…”
While there was an eerie silence, only the sound of bugs chirping was heard.
The man wriggled his eyebrows and glared somewhere in the dark.
But the four others here could not see anything in front of them.
“Damn it!”
At that moment, three heads fell onto the table, along with the sound of the wind.
A green demon with a huge scythe stood tall in the space where there was nothing before.
“Uh?”
