I Robbed the Demon’s Warehouse

Chapter 126

126. Chapter 126

-Welcome to the challenge of the 10th floor.

-Subject: An approaching sandstorm

-After exploring the ruins, you have arrived at ‘Skabe’, the largest city in the desert.

-‘Sukabe’ is a city that is extremely reluctant to visit outsiders.

-You have been granted a visit by ‘Skabe’ on the condition that you cooperate in defending against the approaching sandstorm.

-Currently belongs to the ‘Diablo Clan’.

– The countdown starts from the moment all Diablo clan members arrive or the clan leader announces the start.

As expected, the ordeal on the 10th floor was a group ordeal.

In the ordeal, it is only said that it is a sandstorm, but the sandstorm referred to here was not a simple natural disaster.

Numerous monsters pushed along with the sandstorm. I’m just lumping them together and calling them sandstorms.

“Sewoon, this is… … .”

“Do you know what an ordeal is?”

“yes. You mean we can protect this place, right?”

“that’s right.”

Seun and Yoo Seo-ah were standing on top of a huge wall.

It was a castle wall that looked quite sturdy for being built on sand, but various water-based weapons were visible around it.

Those were all weapons to protect the castle wall from non-human monsters.

Other than that, such as standing guard or refining weapons. Many soldiers were guarding the walls.

They were dressed in leather armor and wrapped in white cloth, a suit that seemed appropriate for a sandy environment.

While Yoo Seo-ah looked around curiously, she saw a soldier approaching.

“You guys? Oooh, look at the cockles. People who say they travel in the desert don’t even cover their noses. Is that cloak a decorative issue?”

“Me, us?”

“Then look at it and tell me. Are there other people besides you wearing such strange clothes over here?”

The soldier, who spoke a savage tone, was also wrapped in a white cloth like a scarf, covering his mouth and nose.

Even though all I could see was his eyes, I could tell at a glance that he was bothered.

Was it because it wasn’t a shelter and it was the first time he’d ever had a conversation with a resident during an ordeal?

Yoo Seo-ah couldn’t answer right away and was at a loss.

“No matter how short the workforce is, what are you asking me to do with an outsider? Whoa. What do you guys know how to shoot a bow?”

Looking around, most of the soldiers on the wall other than the one in front of me were carrying bows behind their backs.

It seemed that the main weapon here was the bow.

Well, since it has such a strong wall, it would be much more efficient to shoot an arrow from the top of the wall than to go out with a spear knife.

“If you don’t know how to hold a bow, don’t be fooled and do chores behind the scenes. Don’t get in the way.”

As the contents of the ordeal show, the people here do not welcome outsiders. That is also the reason for my disrespectful tone.

But the ordeal here wasn’t just about being proud of one another. As long as the goal is to block the castle wall, it was possible to achieve greater efficiency when the sum was well matched with them.

So, if you were ignored from the start, it was impossible to make a good record.

“About a bow.”

“What is it, where did you get the big breasts from?”

Sewoon took out a bow from his subspace pocket and held it up.

Dragon Palace.

It was one of the weapons that Koh Chang-seok made for Sewoon.

The bowstring was strong and springy, and the bowstring, made from sea drake sinew, was surprisingly sturdy.

It took a lot of strength to pull the string, perhaps because it was made exclusively for Sewoon, but instead, it was a bow that boasted extremely strong power and range.

The same goes for arrows used there.

About 50 arrows made by Ko Chang-seok were in the subspace pocket.

“It’s not a supply item, it’s like a precious bow. The reason for the bow found in the ruins?”

Ignoring the soldier’s question, Sewoon hung an arrow on the string of his bow and took a stance.

Concentrate on the ‘Emperor Eagle’s Chuck Eye’ to develop your eyesight.

A cactus sticking out among the rolling sand dunes catches my eye.

The more I focused on my vision, the bigger the size of the cactus felt.

“What are you aiming at? Maybe that cactus? Aye, bluff too. Even if you look at it roughly, how are you trying to match something that is over 1,000m away?”

As the soldier raised his voice as if he was dumbfounded, the eyes of the soldiers around him focused on him.

This fuss is rather welcome. With this single attack, I was able to show my power to many people.

– ‘Grad Empire’s Justice’ is strengthened through internal air.

– Temporarily greatly increases the elasticity and durability of the Dragon Agung.

Great!

As the inner energy settled in, the bow rod shook red.

As the elasticity increased, Sewoon put more strength into his shoulders and pulled the bowstring strongly.

When I applied enough force that the arrowhead caught right in front of the rod, the rod screamed that it was too much.

“I know, so stop it. If you overdo it and your good bow breaks… … .”

The moment when limits are added to concentration, and confidence is felt in the hand holding the arrow.

Yuung Pi-

Sewoon let go of the bowstring.

Naturally, the soldiers’ gaze slanted into the air following the arrow.

For destructive power, it is best to use magic, but what I will show you now is simple archery, not magic.

The arrow, uncorrected by any magic, sharpened the wind.

I didn’t draw anything like a parabola.

The arrow ignorantly cut through the wind and flew in a straight line.

The soldiers who had been handling their bows for as short as a few months and as long as decades while guarding the fortress walls opened their mouths wide at this unbelievable sight.

The arrow was already invisible.

Only then, by the time you want to check the results.

Perong!

The body of the cactus that was leisurely enjoying photosynthesis in the distance exploded.

It didn’t hit the target, nor did the arrow pierce it, it literally exploded. It could not withstand the power of the arrow.

The soldiers who were watching this opened their eyes wide, not even exclaiming.

His mouth was wide open, and it was doubtful that his jaw joint was missing.

The soldier estimated the distance to the cactus as 1,000m, but in reality it was close to 1,500m.

The distance was so far that it would be difficult to see with the naked eye, unless the field of view was exceptionally good.

This was not an ordinary skill even for ordinary people.

In the eyes of the soldiers, who had been ignoring them due to the prejudice of being outsiders, there was now respect.

Sand City, Skabe.

Although it was a place that rejected outsiders, those who faced monsters in the rough desert basically had respect for strong power.

“Sin, sorry! I made a mistake. No, I stopped!”

The soldier, who had been looking at Sewoon with disdainful eyes until just a moment ago, bowed his head deeply.

As Sewoon failed to respond, the soldier broke into a cold sweat and was unable to raise his head.

At that time, a woman who had been watching this scene from afar came closer.

The outfit was not much different from the other soldiers, but the difference was that the face was covered with a red cloth, different from the white cloth of ordinary soldiers.

It was the first time Se-eun had talked to him, but it was a face he had seen before returning.

“My subordinate has been rude. Please forgive me.”

The walls of Skabe are largely divided into four areas.

Among them, the place where Sewoon and Yoo Seo-ah are now is the south gate.

She was the commander in charge of the soldiers at the South Gate.

“I’d like to have a little talk. Are you okay?”

The fact that she came is the same as saying that Sewoon’s strength has already been proven.

Soon, Sewoon nodded.

The clan members hadn’t arrived yet, and the countdown hadn’t even started, but it was as if the ordeal had already begun for Seun.

* * *

“Sit over here.”

“Ah yes. thank you.”

Yoo Seo-ah answered on behalf of Sewoon and sat down.

The place she arrived at was the most central spot on the southern gate wall, and it seemed to be some kind of command room.

The floor was covered with a carpet with gold patterns on a red base, giving the room a very old-fashioned feel.

“First, let me introduce myself. My name is Yasha, who is currently in charge of the South Gate of Skabe.”

“I’m Yuseo.”

“This is Jeong Sewoon.”

“I heard that you arrived here while exploring the ruins, is that true?”

“Ah yes. We… … .”

“I don’t think they called you to do a background check.”

Seun drew a line in her question.

The two arrived here following the guidance of the system, so they had no choice but to come up with a hasty excuse after digging deep.

It was because if she felt suspicious, the trust built by force could be shaken.

So it was more advantageous to go strong here.

I could see Yoo Seo-ah panicking, but Sewoon’s attitude didn’t change.

They had a snowball fight for a while, but Yasha soon lowered her head and let out a small breath.

“Then, let’s cut it short and get to the point.”

What are you trying to say with such an angle?

Yoo Seo-ah listened intently to listen to her words, but Sewoon seemed to have a rough idea of what she was going to say.

The clan Sewoon participated in before returning also said that he had been asked.

Of course, because I was recognized for my skills too late, I didn’t have enough time to do the favor, so I failed in the end.

“I would like to ask you to investigate the source of the sandstorm.”

“The source of the sandstorm? Do you know where it is?”

Yoo Seo-ah asked with her eyes twinkling.

Sewoon just nodded quietly from the side. As I thought, the content of the request was the same as what I heard in rumors before returning.

“Yes, since it is a natural disaster that has been occurring periodically for the past hundreds of years, most information about sandstorms has been revealed.”

“Then why do you want to investigate?”

“It’s because we’ve been hearing suspicious information lately.”

“If the information is suspicious… … .”

“The heat around the known source of the sandstorm increased, and the haze intensified to the point where it was difficult to determine the direction.”

“… … .”

“Not only that, but the extent of the damage is wider than before, and the number of missing people is increasing. Perhaps, I am worried that the aftermath will lead to a sandstorm.”

“So you want to investigate it.”

“That’s right.”

Sewoon nodded.

This ordeal was not about defending against the usual sandstorms that the sand city of Skabe always suffers from.

If that were the case, the soldiers would have blocked the attack on their own, even if the player didn’t help.

The reason this ordeal was an ordeal was because of the incident she was talking about.

“Are you asking this because we are outsiders?”

Yoo Seo-ah pointed out sharply.

It was a request that seemed dangerous at first glance, as the number of missing persons increased and the heat increased.

However, this was also a very important thing to prepare for the next attack.

Asking an outsider to do that? It was dangerous to send one’s own soldiers, so it only looked like asking an outsider.

“… … That’s right.”

In response, Yasha did not make excuses.

Rather, it was more credible.

“And with our forces, it is difficult to pull out personnel to investigate the source right away. I reported it to the superiors, but they dismissed it as something insignificant.”

“Um… … .”

“However, it is by no means a light request. I am betting on my position as the person in charge of the South Gate.”

From then on, it was time for Sewoon and Yoo Seoah to choose.

She made no excuses, and it was a request, not an order.

“If you need some time, I’ll leave your seat for a while.”

she got up from her seat

As if Yoo Seo-ah was entrusting the decision to him, he met Se-un’s eyes.

However, from the moment Sewoon entered the room, he had already decided on the answer to her request.

“I will accept.”

“… … Are you sure?”

“instead.”

Seun stood up from his seat.
