Hoarding in Hell Novel

treason?

Lenian drooped a fine knot in front of Hyunmoo's eyes.

it was a rat tail Judging by the thickness and size, it was certain that it was a ratman.

I don't know why it ended up like this.

"While the butler was away, some of the Ratmen rebelled. Without Yerdan or Kirsson, I thought a Kazat would be enough."

indeed. Yerdan and Kirsson are both working under Park Hwi-so. Yerdan is close to learning.

Kazat trembled like an aspen, fell on his face in front of Hyunmoo, and bowed his head.

"Great One, I am not enough, I have allowed the ungodly."

Unlike Kirsson, Kazat is not in a position to be respected by the Ratmen. It is only being weighed down by the reign of terror and strict discipline that borrowed Hyunmoo's authority.

However, as Hyunmoo frequently vacates the shelter recently, it seems that he has a different heart.

"How many?"

"About 70?"

"Huh, there are quite a few? But did you block them?"

Although Kazat belongs to Hyunmoo's family, the level is not significantly higher than the average level of ratmen.

If 70 ratmen were secretly plotting and attacking, there was a high probability of being beaten without even having time to resist.

But the reason for blocking was simple.

“Yeah. 40 of them tipped us off the other day.”

“……”

What a great friendship.

"The conspiracy to treason seems to be progressing quite a bit. By the way, out of the 40 reported, two were secret police. They all said they were watching them until it got serious to increase their self-worth. This is when the traitors get puffed up as their numbers increase. And it looks like he was trying to do it."

"So, was it suppressed early?"

"No... As soon as it became known that they had suppressed and reported on it, the remnants of the traitors cut off the heads of the leaders and brought them back. And they pretended to be like this from the beginning and brushed their teeth. Would you like to see it hanging over there?"

Lenian said, waving the ratman's tail. Hyunmoo passed Kazat and headed towards the concourse.

Five of the ratman's heads were covered in tar and smelled disgusting. Hyunmoo's expression distorted.

"No, Mr. If you put something that smells like this while you live... No, it's okay."

Hyunmoo sighed and beckoned. Kazat squinted his eyes and shook his heads.

it's treason

He was a little startled, but he thought it might happen someday.

He knew that the ratmen were dissatisfied with him, and he was often absent. It was fortunate that it ended without any damage.

Hyunmoo lightly took about 5 seconds of self-reflection time and moved on to the next stage neatly.

"I was lacking. I think it was still too friendly image."

Hyunmoo smiled and turned to Kazat.

"Where are the rest of the traitors?"

***

"Turn it off..."

"Gyaak, ah ah ah!"Hearing the sounds coming from beyond the improvised room, Hyunmoo organized the items.

He found a way to consume the crystal moss, but now rare equipment is the problem.

Even if all ratmen and goblins are armed with this, there are still enough left.

I'm replacing them with crystal stones whenever I can, but I'm not sure where everyone is picking them up, so they go beyond the warehouse and pile up on the ground.

"Great man."

Kazat opened the door and came out. The black man, who was as black as ink, was all red in color from how passionate he was in his mission.

"As you said, after a just and fair trial, the 25 rats who directly participated in the treason except for the leadership are being remodeled, and the 40 rat men who did not inform earlier have their tails and ears cut off, and crypt labor for the period that they did not inform. I have been sentenced to death. However, the renovation work seems to take a little longer..."

"It's okay. The longer it takes, the better."

Hyunmoo said as if insignificant.

"Yes. But..."

"Why?"

"I don't know why he allowed such a gracious remodeling to a group of traitors..."

Hyunmoo didn't understand Kazat's words for a moment. is that grace?

However, I thought it might be gracious if I think about it from the point of view of a fanatic.

Of course, the remnants of the traitors who are now screaming in real time in that room and being remodeled don't seem to think so.

"Should I explain it to you?"

"Lord, I have sinned to death!"

Kazat knelt down and apologized.

"It's okay, come here."

Kazat approached, rubbing the ground with his face down.

I know you want to be as polite as possible, but it's too slow, so I hope you just walk... … While he was thinking about it, Kazat came all the way to his feet.

Hyunmoo held out a wand to Kazat.

It was a silver wand full of unknown characters. At the top hung the skulls of the head of the ratman who had committed the treason.

As Kazat accepted, the skulls clashed and creaked.

"Hey, this is..."

"I thought your authority was lacking while I was away. I was going to make one earlier, but it took a long time. Still, I'm glad that something quite useful came out."

[Nightmare about Usurper (Legend)]

[Classification: Cane]

[Physical Attack: Low, Magic Attack: High, Penetration: Low]

[Special Ability: Engrave up to three spells and cast it immediately without a chorale. Once a day, the possessor can summon the most feared monster. The level of the summoned being is proportional to the level of the holder.]

[Note: After the Whispering Star, Montstril, whispered the imagination of treason to Aegea the Great, Aegea was unable to sleep at night. Every time he fell asleep, he was murdered in a dream by his sons, wives, friends and men, and the paranoid king began a purge. Alone, Aegea died while engraving the names of countless people to be purged on her staff.]

Montstril had once been helped, but looking at the comments, it seems that Montstril is not normal after all.

What's more, summoning the summoned beast that the bearer fears the most.

'Why is it that only these crazy things are entangled with you?'

Hyunmoo couldn't understand at all.

[Moonstril, whispering star, is watching you.]

Appealing that you are watching at this time is also perverted.

"Great One, I will be loyal!"

Kazat again swore his allegiance to Hyunmoo with tears in his eyes.

***

Although he made legendary equipment that he handed over to Kazat, Hyunmoo's physical condition was quite good.

Now, it was not too difficult to 'craft' two legendary equipment a day.

'It might be convenient if I leave the production to Lenian, but... … .'

Still, he can't craft any legendary gear.

Considering Lenian's taste, it seems that there are bizarre things that can't be used at all. So, Hyunmoo, if possible, was in charge of the production.

But what Hyunmoo was trying to do today was a little different.

[Swordsman's Dagger (Legendary)]

It was a legendary piece of equipment stolen from Ryu Su-a.

I even thought about taking a snake from hell and giving it to Yu-min, but the condition of raising them one by one and increasing their sympathy was burdensome.

It's better to release a monster that you brought into the family at that time.

therefore… … .

"Dismantling."

smashed away

The swordsman's head emitted a fierce light and then shattered and scattered.

At the same time, the lights gathered and more crystals were formed than the ring.

'As expected.'

Hyunmoo has already disassembled several legendary items. However, only a smaller amount of crystal stone than production, and no higher-level objects.

I was wondering if it was because it was an item made through 'production', so I expected that it would be okay if it was an item that I got naturally. But the result was the same.

I was disappointed because I was looking forward to it.

'But there is definitely a level above that.'

Hyunmoo took the mask out of his inventory. It was a strange mask that looked like a haze had gathered to form a shape. Just looking at it was enough to cause motion sickness as my vision was scattered here and there.

[mask(??)]

[Classification: Faceplate]

[Physical Defense: Low, Magic Defense: Low, Evasion Rate: Low]

[Special Ability: You can greatly reduce or increase your presence. It is difficult to detect the presence of stars unless they are directly under the star or have received 'permission'. While wearing the mask, you are exposed to rift contamination, and mana is continuously restored.]

It was an item made with 'heavenly ashes' that Hyunmoo obtained by killing an angel in the Taean dungeon.

He said it was a rare material, so he made it because he thought it was an item to make something. Innumerable amounts of mana went into it, but Hyunmoo's own mana hardly went into it, and there was no flashy effect. It just popped up out of nowhere.

'Taean Dungeon, the same as what I saw in that black space.'

The baby angel who created monsters like drawing a picture. I thought maybe this mask was an item with similar properties to those guys.

'I mean, it's like a manager level... … .'

It's definitely something that destroys balance. Moreover, the comments were not unusual.

[Note: One of the extremely rare remaining celestial relics. It was successfully reproduced in ██████. This is why ██████ was able to survive even after making countless enemies. The person wearing this is basically a member of ■■■■■, there is a high probability.]

This is a really annoying comment. Admiral Ren seems to have an antagonistic relationship with 'Censorship Removal'. Even Admiral Ren is speaking as if he were giving instructions to someone.

'I guess I'm not alone.'

However, this mask was not something we could put our minds to.Hyunmoo tried the mask on again. The moment the mask was put on his face, his vision changed completely.

Countless colorful shadows lingered in all directions.

Strange things that were in human form but could never be imagined as living beings, and disproportionate beings with odd numbers of limbs, shot regardless of walls and floors.

The reason why I thought it was 'living' even though I couldn't touch it and couldn't even talk is because when I wear the mask for a long time, one by one, two figures begin to materialize. that's only part of it.

I can't calm myself down when I see eyes, mouths, ears, tongues, organs, or something unknown in the middle of the blurry shadows.

Even as time goes by, I feel as if they are staring at me more and more.

"……after."

Hyunmoo hurriedly removed the mask before the figures' bodies were revealed.

Still, the shelter was a harmonious space where monsters, like slaves, were working, and pleasant torture and screams were heard from somewhere.

"Huh, I'm glad it's not such a horrible place like before."

Still, I couldn't get rid of the unpleasant thought that something invisible might be moving around.

In the current difficulty: Easy, there was nothing wrong with wearing a mask.

Cloudy shapes were seen, but they were rare, and most of them were human or familiar animal shapes. There was no body materialized.

So I was avoiding wearing this mask in Difficulty: Hell.

"It would be nice if I could make items like this though..."

If there is a hint, it is a rare material such as 'Heavenly Ash'.

"Kazat!"

Hyunmoo called Kazat to bring him a map of the neighborhood.

The area Hyunmoo occupied was about the size of one dong.

He had to include an underpass, traps available in case of emergency, an arsenal, more than 10 shelters, etc., before he could be said to have completely 'taken' it.

More than that, if Hyunmoo went directly, it was difficult to send only goblins.

Hyunmoo looked at the map and suddenly his eyes stopped in one place. It was near the place where the Orc hordes had been smashed in the past because of the quest.

"Why is there an apple shape here? Orchard?"

"Hmm, Kirsson's drawing skills are unbelievable... but it's probably referring to a crystal painting."

"Crystalization?"

"I think it would be better to see for yourself."

directly? do you have Hyunmoo was puzzled, but followed Kazat.

The place where Kazat was headed was none other than the ground. Kazat pointed to the horizon.

"It's over there, over there."

Countless buildings in downtown Seoul lay like corpses leaning against each other. One of the buildings stood very sloppy.

It looked like a gigantic old tree made of crystal moss.

"Is there a crystal flower or something?"

"Yes. But there are countless monsters attracted to the scent of the fruit around the crystal flower."

"how much?"

"Mainly starting with the insect series..."

ding. It was then. A notification popped up to Hyunmoo.

[The Whispering Star, Montstril is watching you.]

[The Whispering Star, Montstril wants to grant you a trial.]
