Anthill (2)

 

Park Ki-tae is a guide.

 

Although he was not specialized in combat, he had a firm standard of his own as he fought numerous battles.

 

'Hunter's rank is absolute.'

 

Grades from S to F.

 

Over the past 20 years, people have divided grades in detail, and grades that may seem simple at first glance are the result of the whole world putting their heads together. There were no exceptions.

 

Those who were eligible for promotion showed skills beyond that grade, but those who repeat their steps in the Hunter database clearly revealed the disadvantage of having to be at that grade somehow.

 

Hundreds of battles.

 

It was a conviction from experience.

 

If it was an F grade, there was a reason why it was an F grade, and if it was an E grade, there was a reason why it was an E grade.

 

So, I did not expect to attack the anthill from the beginning, and I was sure that the will of the two people who did not know the subject would be broken in just one battle.

 

just to there. I was going to do my best in a way that guarantees safety, but I was bewildered by a series of scenes where Kang Min-ho was dealing with ants.

 

'… … Is this grade E?'

 

out of common sense

 

Soldier ants are D-class monsters.

 

If he had the ability to defeat him in the first place, he shouldn't have been an E-class, but Kang Min-ho showed an overwhelming power against not just one, but dozens of soldier ants and worker ants.

 

That meant a grade D or higher. It's a stage that doesn't just cross the D-grade gate, but crosses the C-grade realm.

 

It was shocking.

 

I should have known right away if I had that much skill on the ground in Incheon, but it was the first time in my life that I met a person named Kang Min-ho.

 

quack.

 

smashed the ant's head.

 

It was a perfect victory.

 

It seemed that Minho Kang was saying something to him, but now he couldn't hear those words.

 

'It became certain with just one battle. I don't know why Kang Min-ho stays in the E rank, but in terms of combat, he is beyond what I could expect. Especially dashes and daggers. These are skills that are well known to the public, but they show completely different powers to the point where I doubt whether they are the same skills as I know them. It means that Kang Min-ho's skill utilization is exceptional.'

 

Park Ki-tae did not know.

 

only one month.

 

The fact is that it is the result of a short period of time.

 

Kang Min-ho clearly had the ability to meet an E-grade, but it was completely changed with just one instruction.

 

In fact, it was a natural result.

 

People say that Dmitry's lore is very special, but Roman Dmitry could be said to be Dmitry himself.

 

The power that disrupts the rating system.

 

It's embarrassing now that people don't know about his existence, but in the not-too-distant future, Roman Dmitry will defy the standards of common sense.

 

Park Ki-tae shrugged off his emotions.

 

The battle is over.

 

Normally, I should have run away by now, but after seeing Kang Min-ho's appearance, I changed my mind.

 

'For now, it's been proven that these people aren't stupid. If you really had the skills to subdue the anthill... … This is a great opportunity to earn 300 million.'

 

Sure.

 

It was still disappointing.

 

Although Kang Min-ho cannot handle all the ants alone, the part that Park Ki-tae was paying attention to was Roman Dmitry.

 

Roman Dmitry and Kang Min-ho are clearly divided.

 

Seeing a talented person like Kang Min-ho following Roman Dmitry, it seemed that there was something special that he was not aware of.

 

Believed.

 

This was an opportunity.

 

Park Ki-tae chose to stay, unlike his initial plan.

 

* * *

 

Park Ki-tae said.

 

"From now on, you have to make a choice. As you go inside, the number of ants will increase, and it is impossible to escape due to the geographically limited nature of the ant den. It's just a prelude. If you can't afford the waves of ants, now is your only chance to stay safe."

 

It was sincere advice.

 

But.

 

Roman Dmitry and Kang Min-ho had no intention of backing down.

 

They chose to keep going, and as a result, as Park Ki-tae warned, the battle was repeated.

 

Whoa!

 

Kyaaaah!

 

The ants ran away.

 

To the beings who invaded the realm, they exposed their ferocious teeth, and as in the beginning, in the situation Roman Dmitry and Park Ki-tae were watching, Kang Min-ho was alone.

 

I have gained confidence now.

 

At first, he had doubts about himself whether he could deal with the soldier ants and the worker ants alone, but once he checked his skills, he slaughtered the enemies without hesitation as if he had gained momentum.

 

puck.

 

quack.

 

blood splashed

 

I cut down the people I encountered.

 

Kang Min-ho's power itself was not much different from what it was a month ago, but the explosive power from Sura's mind method showed completely different results.

 

It was a new world. As the battle repeated, he couldn't help but get excited.

 

suddenly.

 

He felt that he would like to take the promotion test on his return.

 

'When I first took the promotion exam, the examiner who was in charge of me said that. The future of those who obtained the qualifications of a hunter at that age is clear. Unless you get a strong performance from the beginning, you live in a miserable situation and die by a monster. So it's better for Hunters to give up.'

 

It's not wrong.

 

If he hadn't met Roman Dmitry, he would have suffered a tragic death like the judge's warning after failing to get out of his E-class condition.

 

So I wanted to prove it. Ability to not be pushed even when dealing with dozens of ants. How would the judges at that time evaluate you now?

 

Of course, that was a later issue.

 

I knew all too well that we could discuss the future only by solving the problems we encountered.

 

' said Roman Dmitry. I'll come forward and give it to you in situations I can't handle. So, no need to be afraid.'

 

messed it up

 

Beyond the darkness.

 

The ants were constantly running.

 

It felt like walking on thin ice, but strangely, I wasn't afraid.

 

Whoa!

 

Kyaaaah!

 

Another swarm of ants appeared.

 

Kang Min-ho ran towards them without hesitation.

 

* * *

 

Things went smoothly.

 

Now that he had entered quite deeply inside, Park Ki-tae had a strangely ominous feeling.

 

'There are fewer ants than I thought. If the two queen ants have been producing ants continuously for the past month, there must be a number of ants that I have never experienced in this burrow. But so far, it hasn't deviated much from common sense. No, it's worse than an ant den where there is only one queen ant.'

 

It was definitely weird.

 

It is a hunting ground that people avoid.

 

This hunting ground, full of ants in the tunnel, never allowed people to go easily.

 

It was then.

 

"We have found a nest for the queen ant."

 

100 m away.

 

A huge space was discovered in the search magic.

 

In the ant den, there is a space used as a nest for the queen ants, where the queen ants constantly lay eggs.

 

From the beginning, the destination was the nest of this queen ant.

 

No matter how much ants were killed, it was a key factor in subjugating the anthills to the extent that it is said that if the queen ant is not dealt with, there is a saying.

 

I erased the anxiety from my mind.

 

No matter what variables there were, once they arrived at the nest of the queen ant, it was as if they had reached the heights in front of them.

 

moved a step

 

yet.

 

A huge space was revealed.

 

Not only Park Ki-tae, but even Kang Min-ho showed a surprised reaction at the sight being sucked into his eyes.

 

"… … this."

 

"Wow."

 

There were ant eggs everywhere.

 

It was an uncountable number, and considering the ants hatching time of less than a day, staying here for a long time was a stupid choice.

 

However, Park Ki-tae felt ominous once again.

 

Feelings more intense than before said what the source of the anxious mood was.

 

"It's kind of weird. The number of ant eggs that a queen ant can lay in a day is at most 100. However, at first glance, there are more than a thousand visible ant eggs. It doesn't make sense. What does it mean that so many ant eggs exist at the same time... … ."

 

swallowed the horse

 

This is possible only when there are dozens of queen ants.

 

It didn't make sense.

 

Incheon Mayor Kim Jun-hyeok delayed the subjugation with just two queen ants, but the existence of a dozen could not be accepted with common sense.

 

Even Park Ki-tae had never heard of such a precedent.

 

Ant dens are common hunting grounds all over the world, so even in a chaotic world, there were standards of their own.

 

It was then.

 

wiggle clack.

 

The ant eggs shook.

 

It was larger than the other ant eggs, and cracks began to form in the eggs, and something popped out.

 

Kwajik.

 

It was the front foot.

 

After making a hole with its front paw, the ant exposed its face.

 

Moment.

 

Park Ki-tae's eyes widened.

 

ant body.

 

It was the queen ant.

 

* * *

 

queen ant.

 

Its existence was a mystery.

 

It is known that the queen ant hatches with the worst probability among numerous ants, so it should not have happened in this place where two queen ants already inhabited.

 

The problem wasn't just that. At that time, while Park Ki-tae was staring blankly, the other ants' eggs also pierced through the eggs one after another and showed their faces.

 

Whoa!

 

"… … Oh, this is absurd."

 

His eyes fluttered violently.

 

It was also the queen ant.

 

Although three were not enough, four, or more, queen ants appeared from continuously hatching ant eggs.

 

I got goosebumps.

 

situation in front of you.

 

There was only one way to explain this.

 

'Isn't this a foreshadowing?'

 

catastrophe.

 

Before the world turns to hell, there are many omens that foretell catastrophe.

 

It is a warning to prepare for catastrophe and another hell.

 

The omnipresent phenomenon completely destroys the conventional wisdom, so there was no way to explain the simultaneous existence of dozens of queen ants in one ant den other than the omnipresent phenomenon.

 

That is to say.

 

In this place where people's eyes could not reach, the subject was wriggling.

 

If the subjugation of the anthill had been delayed, Incheon would soon be attacked by ants.

 

The thought was there.

 

Suddenly, shouts were heard from all directions.

 

Tata Tak.

 

Whoa!

 

Whoa!

 

It was the sound of ants swarming.

 

Park Ki-tae's complexion turned pale at the terrifying sound of at least thousands of birds rushing at him, incomparable to before.

 

"Well, you have to run. If it's a harbinger, we just can't handle it."

 

I hurriedly looked around.

 

He took out the teleport scroll and held it in his hand, but Roman Dmitry was calm despite Park Ki-tae's urgent voice.

 

"It's up to me to decide if I can afford it or not."

 

"Damn it."

 

cursed out

 

They were crazy kids.

 

He was better than expected, but it didn't make sense for just the two of us to prevent the omens.

 

From the foreshadowing phenomenon, it is a problem that must be dealt with at least by the city unit.

 

Even if it was a B-grade or higher peak hunter, it was impossible to survive the attack of the ants that were about to come.

 

Mouth was dry.

 

My body trembled.

 

I wanted to keep my loyalty, but I couldn't do it this time because of the imminent death.

 

Roman Dmitry didn't say that.

 

I won't hold you accountable.

 

"… … sorry. I am really sorry."

 

I shut my eyes tight.

 

I tore the scroll as it was.

 

With the light wrapped around his body, Park Ki-tae could not open his eyes until the teleport was finished.

 

* * *

 

evil.

 

thud.

 

The teleport coordinates were Incheon.

 

Park Ki-tae, who appeared in the new space, got up hurriedly after confirming that he was safe.

 

'It is unavoidable for two people to die. But omens are a different matter.'

 

survival of the two?

 

Impossible.

 

Because it is a vain hope to endure even for 10 minutes against thousands, perhaps even more, of ants, Park Ki-tae has already made the death of both of them a fact.

 

The problem was foreshadowing.

 

It is clear that the scale of the catastrophe will increase due to the continuous birth of queen ants, so for the safety of Incheon, they had to subdue the ant burrows at any cost.

 

"I have to tell you this."

 

hastened to walk

 

where he's headed.

 

That destination was the Incheon government.
