Chapter 78 78.00. < Chapter 15. Guests of the underworld - 5 > (1/2)

- Boom, boom!

Onyx, who is ridiculously excited, talks so quickly that he doesn't understand. Kang Shinhyuk held him in his arms and helped him with his spiritual energy to digest the golem fragments that he had already swallowed.

”It's all right now. They're not enemies. ”

- Whew...

I stroked the calming one a few more times and then looked around. The moles that were gathering outside the room were shouting something, but the room was blocked by the heat and light of the furnace.

”Savior, help me! ”

”Goo, Savior! The Kingdom is toppling! ”

”Savior, your claws! ” Tr ans la ted b y jp m t l .ｃ o ｍ

Kang Shinhyuk first turned off the fire in the furnace so that moles could come in. I've recovered some firewood that hasn't burnt yet. It's worth 8,000 HP for a kilo.

“Anvil, did you hear that? ”

At that moment, King Jesus hurriedly rushed in and grabbed onto the bridge of Kang Shinhyuk. The other moles didn't seem to understand, but King Jeju, a member of the Hero Universe, did.

“Yes. I made a little mistake while I was making my claws, and something else was done. Well, let's just say that surrounding this underworld isn't just metal. ”

“Unless it's just metal, what is it!? ”

“Golems.”

“…… Yes?” T r ans l ated by jpmt l .ｃo ｍ

King Jesus stood firm in his place. Kang Shinhyuk hung the king on his legs and asked the handset.

“Is there a good place to keep an eye on things? ”

- I will recall the autowalk to the command room. Plug the terminals into the nearby wall.

Kang Shin-hyuk has already plugged the cloth into a wall that has been turned into a purple metal.

Without surprisingly colliding, Chloe's tip is naturally buried in the wall, and then the wall cracks open and creates a hole around it!

What was even more surprising was that the hole gradually expanded into a passageway that would allow people to pass through, and the floor was covered with parallel escalators that they had seen at the airport. Kang Shinhyuk muttered because he was exhausted.

“What a technological level this world is. ”

“Golems make sense. I don't think I can make the entire facility into a golem... ”

Even Shin Eun-ah, who was close to the top of magic on Earth, could feel how high the level of the world was.

But what bothers me is that this facility doesn't seem to be built for moles. That is, before the moles went deep underground, there was already an intelligent being able to build this kind of facility here…….

‘Then, where have they gone now...? It's obvious. ’

A sanctuary buried in darkness, for the people who found it...... We'll be able to find several scenarios that start here.

Maybe this facility was built by a mole, a predecessor of the human species. How ominous it has been since the resonance of the name Refuge.

The fishermen had been fighting the crisis for a long time, and eventually they were unable to overcome it, leaving only shelters underground…… It was a natural flow.

“I should call Claire, too. ” Tr a ns lat e d by jpｍ tl.coｍ

“It's best not to touch Claire when she's on her own. It's a lot of concentration.”

“Okay, let's go first. ”

Kang Shin-hyuk stabilized the moles, saying that the whole kingdom wouldn't collapse just because the facility was reestablished, and then he took King Zixia on the sidewalk.

The mobile news started moving at a remarkably fast rate as soon as it sensed that they were coming up. King Jeju squealed, hanging onto Kang Shinhyuk's legs like he was afraid of falling.

“What a pathway in the basement! ”

“It wasn't there. The golem changed the body structure and made it instantaneous. ”

“You sound great, sunbae. ”

The movement was so fast that it stopped quickly. The wall that appears at the end of the moving walkway. When Kang Shinhyuk plugged the handset back into it, the wall collapsed and a huge space appeared.

An enormous number of monitors were installed on one side of that huge space. A monitor that still shines in real time and places other than the Kingdom.

“That's huge.”

“Look here. ”

Shin Eun-ah quickly found something strange. It was installed close to the edge of the wall, but the entire screen was obscured. If this is not a camera problem, this is…….

- Commander, we have an external situation. The 32nd Shelter is currently under attack by a group of monsters matching 99.7% of its impact on the ground.

At the right time, reports came from the handset. Kang Shin-hyuk is a monster looking at the blushing monitor? I muttered.

Tr anslate d b y jpｍ tl.c o ｍ “What kind of monster is that? ”

- Humanity calls it swallowing fungus. A parasitic monster that reproduces into a spore that is absorbed into the respirator to suck out the victim's health and magical power and breathe out. Because of the overwhelming fertility and the magical shield and the incoming infiltration, it has recently made enormous sacrifices.

“Oh, wow. ”

A description of the stripe protruding like it was waiting. Kang Shinhyuk was frightened and quietly listened to him.

- But it had a habit of not coming into the basement, and we made a lot of sacrifices, and we found out why. It's because of the toxicities that contain underground mineral venadilites that are blocking spores from reproducing.

“You blocked it?”

If we shut it down, there's no way the fog would be able to seep into the basement like that.

No, wait...... what if the moles were crawling through a hole and spores had seeped in and slowly multiplied for a long time and descended down this passageway...?

Kang Shinhyuk felt a chill. If the Golem's explanation is true, then Kang Shin-hyuk's party could be in danger too!

Of course, we could see that the rate of penetration is still not so high, given that only a small number of maggots were affected.

- Humanity has constructed numerous underground evacuation facilities utilizing Benadilite, but unfortunately only a few will die in preparation for migration. Rarely did the survivors break into several shelters, which were in standby, with no work to be done.

In addition, Kang Shin-hyuk said that the shelter facility that was in standby began maneuvering, thanks to his success in creating a handset of fragments of the golem facility.

“What do we do with that now? ”

- We blocked the area of Swallowing Fingers shortly after identifying the situation. However, there may already be spores inside, so you will need to proceed further. Fortunately, that's not much, so it won't last until the emergency.

Finally, the explanation is finished. Kang Shin-hyuk immediately contacted Claire using the hero universal whisper system and found out where she was.

T r a n s l a te d b y Ｊp ｍ t l.co ｍ However, Claire was surprised to see the sudden wall breach and the coverage of movement, but tilted her head toward Kang Shinhyeok's explanation.

“That's a monster? No, I didn't feel a life reaction. Fungus... No, I don't think that's a fungus. ”

- Monsters that aren't living can exist for as long as they are. It was for convenience that they were named germs, but it was clear that they were monsters who clearly behaved with hostile physicians towards humanity.

“Of course, if you look at the pattern of behavior...”

Claire looks a little grumpy. Kang Shinhyuk asked her to check the body for Swallowing Fingers' intrusion with the help of a shelter facility.

“But it's not poison, is it? ”

“No, it turns out it's poison. Bacteria are living things. Biotoxins are poisonous, right? If any substance harms us, we'll call it poison from that moment on. It just depends on how the poison works. ”

“I see…….”

It was a vivid commentary like an alchemist. With Kang Shin-hyuk's admiration, Claire catches up. It would be so cool without this part.
