History of the Greatest Territory Design - Episode 115
115fury. Taming the Phantom Species (1)
“Bibbeong-!”
A huge sound rang out.
The entire lakeside was shaken with a force that would turn the world upside down..
So Lloyd, who was hiding in the grass with the White Lancer, felt puzzled..
‘uh?’
What is that?.
Why is the crying sound like that??
Somehow this doesn't feel familiar.?
‘It sounds like a fantastic species, that thing.?’
That was when he thought so..
Once again, a roar sounded from beneath the nest in the center of the lake..
“Bieberbung! Bibbeong!”
Kwaaaa-!
The sound is louder than before.
The magnificent roar created ripples in the lake..
The White Lancers who were in ambush nearby were so nervous that they unconsciously grabbed the handles of their shovels..
But Lloyd?
It was different.
I wasn't nervous at all.
No, rather, I was feeling even bigger doubts and doubts..
The reason was simple.
The roar of King Stoma that just rang out.
This was because I was able to ‘clearly’ understand the meaning behind it..
“for a moment. Did he just shout, ‘Someone broke my dam!’? I heard it right?”
“Podong!”
I asked while looking into the chest to check..
Podongi, who was wiggling in his inner pocket, nodded his head vigorously..
“Podo-dong, po-dong. Pop dong dong!”
“Right?”
“Podong!”
“uh. That's what I heard too.”
It is certainly.
King Stoma just said that.’
‘It sounded like I had a real-time automatic translator turned on in my head. Absolutely clear. But this feels very familiar.’
It's natural.
Because it happens all the time.
Because it was always like that when I talked to Podong, Bangle, and Hamangi..
‘So, this is a sensation you only experience when talking to a phantom species..’
In fact, he himself did not know the principle..
It was just like that from the beginning..
It was from the moment I summoned Podong..
I don't know why, but I was able to clearly understand everything Podong said..
As if a real-time automatic translator was turned on in my head..
Or as if you have a level 1 phantom language certification..
I could just hear it..
‘But why is it still like that??’
King Stoma must be a magical beast..
Why does that guy's roar sound like that of a phantom species and do I feel its meaning?.
The question wasn't long.
Soon a louder roar was heard..
“Bieberbung! Beabububububbung!”
Tukwahaaaak!
A loud noise accompanied by a roar.
One side of the nest was shaking.
The spray exploded..
A huge figure rose from within..
The overall round and chubby silhouette stands tall..
Shoot ahhh!
The 20-meter-long, flat, wide, flat tail, resembling the oars of a sailing ship, splashed the water..
It is strong and has short, thick hind legs that stand like pillars..
Round and fleshy buttocks with full strength.
On top of that, there is a chunky body and short front legs..
Finally, I saw a big, round head..
Just like that, with dark brown fur soaked in water all over the body..
Square front teeth revealed through wide open mouth.
100It roared again, raising a meter-tall body..
“Bibbeong-!”
Wow-!
A huge roar echoed dozens of times and shook the entire lake and mountain range..
Lloyd finally realized.
‘That's not beaver-like behavior, it's just beaver itself.?’
It was like that..
The demon beast is now awake and has come out of its nest..
King Stoma finally revealed his 100 meter height.
This guy was like a beaver not only in his habits but also in his appearance..
It felt like they had just placed a 100 meter tall beaver there..
The behavior after the roar was also similar..
Phuwak!
King Stoma leaned his body forward again..
I slid gently under the water..
started swimming.
The point where Javiel used blasting earlier.
It was towards the place where part of the dam collapsed..
‘Okay, as expected..’
A beaver is infinitely obsessed with the dam it built..
This plan was devised because of that habit..
The plan was working out well..
It looked like he was going to fix the dam..
‘Well done. Just keep going. Let's fix the broken dam quickly.’
Lloyd secretly cheered(?) for King Stoma..
I hoped it would swim straight to the point where the dam was demolished..
But things did not go as he hoped..
King Stoma, which was swimming well, suddenly stopped in place..
And started looking everywhere.
I sniffed it like I was smelling something..
I let out a roar full of doubt..
“Beebubung? Bibbeong?”
Of course, Lloyd was able to understand the meaning of the roar this time too..
That's right…….
‘……Smells something strange? Called?’
Sniff sniff!
King Stoma's round nose continued to suck in air..
A faint but foreign body odor felt in the air.
A smell that doesn't suit this place full of dirt, trees, and lakes..
The fishy smell of metal flowed in from one side and stimulated my sense of smell..
‘Bitch! Beebubung!’
King Stoma continued to sniff and think..
It is certainly.
If the smell of metal is this strong, you are human..
Only this weak and greedy race can emit such a strong, fishy smell of iron..
That means…….
“Bieberbung! Bubble bubbling!”
King Stoma's eyes turned to the dam..
The place where you felt the vibration that woke you up a little while ago..
I caught a glimpse of a part of the collapsed dam..
“Bibbeong!”
Now I understand.
That thing didn't just collapse..
It definitely didn't collapse because it was old or by accident..
It's human.
Those guys that smell like iron.
They destroyed it for some reason..
your precious dam!
“Bubble bubbling!”
King Stoma's big, black eyes were stained with anger..
I looked around the lake with my burning gaze..
Thanks to this, Lloyd had to swallow his dry saliva..
‘That guy is looking for us now.’
King Stoma's cry of anger.
As I listened to it, I automatically understood the meaning, like when I was talking to a phantom species..
‘It smells like iron. It seems like there are humans. It seems like it was humans who broke the dam and woke him up... … . Whoa, is that reasoning real?.’
It wasn't a joke when I heard it..
It was not at the level of intelligence or thinking of a mere beast or magical beast..
The podong and bells he carried seemed to be equal to the hamangi..
In other words, it had intelligence and reasoning ability equivalent to that of humans..
‘I need to reexamine my future plans..’
Lloyd's expression hardened..
He gathered his thoughts..
‘Originally, the plan was to continue damaging the dam in the future. By damaging the dam, King Stoma wakes up and repairs the dam. What if King Stoma falls asleep after repairing the dam? I tried to repeat the same process as before. Until the monster domino effect ends. Just for about a year.’
Like the beaver in the Animal.
Or like Sisyphus in Greek mythology who had to roll a stone forever..
By subjecting him to such repetitive labor, he attempted to induce King Stoma to engage in anti-compulsory activities..
But now I see it?
If that operation continues as is, this side is going to get seriously hurt..
‘Much more intelligent than expected.’
I thought it was just a magic beast.
I thought it was at beast level like Giga Titan..
I never expected that it would show the same characteristics as a phantom species..
‘So it became difficult to repeat the operation as planned..’
I'm not sure how it works now, but looking at King Stoma's reasoning ability right now, it seems like if it were repeated two or three more times, it would be caught right away..
That's why.
‘A customized response is needed.’
Lloyd's head started spinning..
original plan.
King Stoma’s characteristics and intelligence confirmed today.
I disassembled all those puzzles..
laid out on the floor.
Step by step from the beginning.
I tried a new shape.
And finally I found the answer.
“Javiel.”
Lloyd, who finished calculating, looked away..
I looked straight into Javiel's eyes and said.
“I need you to be a bit of a villain today..”
“……What do you mean by that?.”
Javiel asked back with a confused expression..
Lloyd curled one lip..
“Literally. You need to be a bit of a villain. To that King Stoma.”
“To King Stoma? If that means-”
Javiel's eyes sparkled..
“Is it okay to kill him?.”
“No, never. Never.”
Lloyd shook his head..
“You can't kill him, man. Think about it. What if I kill him? Then who will scare and stop the monsters that will continue to come in the future in a domino effect??”
“then…….”
“He's looking for someone to blame now.?”
“yes? You're the one to blame?”
“To explain further, I'm looking for traces of the culprit who destroyed the dam today..”
“So, instead of going straight to the dam, you're stopping and looking around??”
“uh. I see you sniffing?”
“yes.”
“It's looking for a place that smells like iron..”
“They concluded that a human was the culprit..”
“that's right. That's it.”
Lloyd grinned..
“So, brave, chic, and cool Lord Asrahan. Won't you represent humanity here today??”
“Why do I have to do that?.”
“Because you’re handsome.”
“…….”
Javiel closed his mouth, and Lloyd smiled evilly..
“Take a look around. Is there anyone here who is more handsome than you??”
“doesn't exist.”
“Oh, look how you don't even think for a second when you answer.”
“Because it's a clear fact.”
“that's right. So you should be the representative.”
“what is that…….”
“More precisely, I would like you to appear in a prominent place for King Stoma. And draw attention. Acting like you were the villain who broke the dam today.”
“Looks like you're after something..”
“that's right. I have something to aim for. Besides, you actually broke the dam, right??”
“But it's everyone here together…….”
“You hit the last hit?”
“…….”
Like this dirty and shameful young man..
Javiel glared at Lloyd with mischievous eyes for a moment..
However, he soon accepted the situation and nodded..
“great. Let's do it. Instead, I also have something I would like to ask of Lloyd..”
“ask?”
“yes.”
“I'll refuse.”
“…….”
“what. why. what. In a situation like this, if you set the mood and ask for a favor, did you think I would just accept it so obviously?.”
“Phew, no.”
“Of course not, right? Good job. Then hurry up and go. Don't forget to fight only at the shallow edge of the water to avoid creating waves in the lake..”
“All right. then.”
I don't know what you're trying to do, but please, don't take any chances..
……I was going to ask you that.
Javiel lowered himself with a sigh..
I walked under the grass.
I moved secretly for a while..
I increased my distance from the group by more than 300 meters..
I climbed onto a prominent lakeside rock..
Grumble!
I drew my sword and raised it..
I activated the dark mind technique..
Two circles collided violently.
Tuchem-!
A powerful blast was fired from the raised sword..
I flew across the lake with a heavy drink..
King Stoma, who was still looking around, turned his head this way..
I captured Javiel in an instant..
“Bibbeong-!”
It's you.!
King Stoma clearly remembered.
Just before I woke up, while I was enjoying a good night's sleep, I heard a binge drinking..
The same roar that broke the precious dam.
It sounded exactly like that..
It was certain.
So, the silver-haired man standing across the lake holding a sword was the culprit who destroyed his precious dam.!
“Bieberbung! Bibbeong!”
He roared in anger..
dived beneath the cold surface.
I crossed the lake, cutting through the current with my huge body..
Chuwaaagh!
Because it was so large, its movements seemed sluggish..
But the reality was different.
Flat, wide tail resembling an oar.
Every time its tail swings, it stirs up a huge amount of water..
100A huge body measuring up to a meter was pushed forward..
Thanks to this, King Stoma was able to attack the lakeside where Javiel was located with just a few tail movements..
“Bibbeong!”
Wow!
I raised my head as if breaking the surface of the water..
Immediately, he hit Javiel with his short, thick front legs..
Kwaaang-!
The rock was split apart by the heavy weight strike. No, it was completely broken..
King Stoma huffed and looked at the broken rock..
But he couldn't find the body of his abominable enemy anywhere..
It was then.
“It's this way.”
Suddenly, a cold voice was heard from about 20 meters away..
At the same time, an intense shock wave stretched out in a straight line..
Throwing a bet-!
The fired blast passed over King Stoma's head..
Thanks to this, King Stoma was startled..
“Bibbeong!”
Oh, I'm surprised..
Surprise soon turned into even greater anger..
“Bieberbung! Bibbeong!”
It was from then on..
King Stoma ran wild with even more ferocity..
He went wild to kill the heinous culprit(?) who destroyed the dam..
But every time, Javiel dodged the attack like a fly. As a bonus, I even deliberately missed his blast..
Thanks to this, King Stoma's gaze became more persistent in pursuing Javielman..
The more Javiel avoids attacks, the more.
The more I keep running away, as if making fun of myself,.
I focused all my senses and nerves on Javiel..
“Bibbung! Bubble bubbling!”
Likewise, King Stoma becomes more ferocious as time goes by..
Thanks to that, he wasn't even aware of the dream..
‘Okay, that's enough..’
Before I knew it, Lloyd was creeping up behind King Stoma..
However, in Lloyd's hand, he held a secret weapon that he had brought out to subdue King Stoma..
A potion that makes phantom species smaller..
It was a blue sunflower seed..
