Hoarding in Hell Novel

Chapter 227 Trial of the Stars (4)

Kawaro, who was confronted with an angry Curie, was embarrassed, but responded calmly.

As he swung his arm, dozens of gold bracelets on his wrist rang with a squeaking noise.

Curie instinctively crouched down and jumped. The sound of the bracelets hitting each other was quickly amplified and began to resound.

The Land Lantern Maw could not withstand the vibrations within his body.

The body fluid inside his body shook, and in an instant, his whole body exploded and he died.

Curie, who had crouched down on his body, stood up, igniting more and more fierce flames.

“Huh, even wearing armor, you can withstand it.”

Kawaro, who had spread the distance for a while, murmured. He only died, a waste of land lantern anglerfish.

Even if he was alive, he would have died because of the heat.

The giant Kawaro was riding on was also killed by the vibration, so he had no choice but to walk.

“It seems to be getting hotter than I’ve ever seen, Curie.”

“Kawaro! How did you do the lampel?”

“Rampel?”

Kawaro looked puzzled at the name that came out of nowhere.

“You mean that kid? Did you know that your strength comes from your muscles?”

Kawaro thought about what Curie was suddenly saying, and then remembered that both apostles had died.

One was certainly an Apostle of the Starving Star, but the other was unknown.

“Is that kid dead?”

“You still lie naturally, you deceiver!”

Curie clenched his spear and pointed it at Kawaro.

Thump, the moment she slammed her foot hard, her Curie’s body became a single giant spear that rushed in.

Skill: Charge.

It was a simple skill, but the effect was not simple.

The fierce flames emanating from Curie’s body interlocked with the rotation of her spear and pierced towards Kawaro.

Kawaro couldn’t hide his bewildered expression when he was engaged in an unfamiliar close combat after a long time.

Kawaro decided to sacrifice his bracelet, which she had no choice but to cherish.

Skill: Secret Deal.

quagga gag!

Curie’s charge scorched his crypt hot and fiercely smashed at the same time.

She was on the verge of creating a new crypt with her charge.

At the apex of that devastating attack, Kawaro, unable to even think of escaping, was drawn into the attack.

Curie only stopped after making a tunnel nearly tens of meters. The family members who were swept away by her attack were shattered or burned without leaving any shape.

Curie stared at the tip of her spear. Despite her fierce attack, Kawaro held the tip of her spear with his finger with an annoyed expression.

“I always thought you were someone you could talk to. Did you crawle under the conquering star and even your brain ripened?”

On one arm of Kawaro, three bracelets that were ‘traded’ disappeared for the damage he should have worn.

Kawaro glared at Curie in one more number than she expected.

“You know that all these bracelets are myth-level items, right?””So what? Was it a waste?”

“I am a person who regrets losing rare items.”

Curie had no intention of joking.

“Because you’re from a Tamgwan duck, your greed is still there.”

The easy nicknames of satiety and sloth were the starving star’s taste. And it was a tribute to the trials he had passed.

Having passed the ordeal of the Starving Star twice, Kawaro liked the titles of satiety and sloth, but most who knew him used other names for him.

exploration duck.

It was a nickname that was still attached to him before he became an apostle and even now. She pressed the tip of her spear against the tip of Kawaro’s chin.

“Rampel encountered Ivanov and repulsed his forces of the dead and decided to retreat strategically! With the Wailing Star intervention confirmed, he sent a messenger to join me! Then suddenly I felt his morbidity!”

“So I killed Lampel?”

“If it weren’t for you, I’d be Ytwolo’s child.”

Kawaro let go of Curie’s spear.

He was no longer wary of the tip of Curie’s spear. Because he knew that this was Curie’s method of conversation.

In fact, even if Kawaro let go of the spear, Curie did not stab him.

“I felt a scream, Curie. But you and I are different stars. It’s okay for us to kill each other, and it’s even natural.”

“……”

“But the reason you’re asking me about this is because you don’t even know how this happened. Seeing you come to me so quickly, you must know that I have nothing to do with you.”

“Yeah, do you know something?”

Children who can’t even talk unless they hurry up with threats or threats.

That was Kawaro’s impression of the conquering star.

Fortunately, Curie was a rational apostle who could communicate with other stars in this way.

If it was Lampel, it would have been obvious that he would only fight for his death after making ridicule and abusive language.

“No. I’ve just heard Ytwolo’s scream. Did you know that the Apostle’s scream sounded twice?”

“…Yeah. That must have been the starving star.”

Both had lost one of their fellow apostles. Instead of doubting Kawaro, Curie began to speculate together.

Now, the situation was embarrassing for her as well.

“Are you likely to have been together?”

One may have killed the other and soon died of exhaustion.

The skills of Ytwalo and Lampel were similar. If it was a 1:1 fight, there was a good chance.

Curie continued to speculate.

“Or the one who killed Ytwolo might have killed Lampel as well.”

“No, it’s impossible.”

Kawaro muttered.

“Rampel said he was dealing with Ivanov? Then he was at the top level. But Ytwolo headed downstairs. I thought he’d come to check Kang Hyunmoo’s location, but it seems like he’s been in a disgrace on the way.”

“then…….”

Curie opened her mouth heavily.

“Rampel could have been beaten by Ivanov, but Ytwolo would have been beaten by Kang Hyunmoo.”

Kawaro fell into silence.

It was a possibility I didn’t want to imagine, but it was possible enough. But I didn’t know anything until I checked.

He couldn’t even remember how long it had been since he had lost an apostle. In the days of the great war, the apostle died and a new apostle was born, but it is different now.

An era when the tension that seemed to be cut off disappears and only meaningless workshops come and go between ruins and fixed territories.

It was a time of slow death.

But suddenly a strange change was taking place.

“I thought it was a normal quest.”

Kawaro muttered with a bitter expression.

Curie, who was watching him, suddenly opened his mouth.

“Appointment.”

“Yes?”

“You were also there when the appointment was made. Remember?”

Kawaro immediately recognized what Curie was saying. But he was also a nuisance.

Unlike Curie, Kawaro was the one who wanted to forget about the promise and ignore it.

For the promise was also a symbol of their humiliation and incompetence.

Appointment.

The treaty between the stars that have now disappeared or have given up, with the stars that still remain.

When Curie did not answer Kawaro, he began to speak as if to remind him.

“If you keep this place safe, we will not intervene any more. The apocalypse will not proceed any further. But if you finally set foot here…”

“Oh, it’s noisy. I remember.”

Kawaro got nervous and pushed Curie’s spear away. Curie had a fierce expression on her face, but there was no sign of fighting.

“It was decades ago. Most of the agents who came to the Promised Land at that time either died or disappeared. Now this place is nothing but ruins that no one remembers or cares about.”

“But you still care, don’t you?”

Of course. I don’t know Curie, but Kawaro had already stepped into the crossroads, heard a shout, and ran away as if running away.

At the time, I thought it was a warning I had heard of trying to kill the Achiever of the ordeal, but it didn’t seem to have anything to do with the promise.

“…it seems like we have to hurry.”

Kawaro calmly stared at Curie.

As long as both apostles were killed without knowing the cause, they could not be reckless.

Curie and Kawaro were both apostles who could think rationally.

Curie put his spear over his shoulder and said.

“If we fight amongst ourselves, won’t it be good only for the weeping star?”

“Yeah. We don’t need a handshake, do we?”

“Don’t look at the back of your head. You might get greedy.”

Curie whistled towards his back. The iron-blooded soldiers who had been waiting with the flames killed all over the darkness walked out one by one.

There were 50 iron-bloods, now there are only 30 left.

Although Kawaro still had many family members, the number was rapidly declining.

“First, let’s hold onto Kang Hyunmoo and think about it. What should we do?”

***

Hyunmoo did not know how to respond to the sudden death of the apostle.

It wasn’t as good as the apostle’s death.

If one of them is dead, it might incite each other’s conflict, but if both of them suddenly die, they become wary.

Especially, if the only dead side is the starving Apostle, the other side can come down without blockage.

One of the worst-case scenarios.The union of stars, or solo, begins.

There was no guarantee that a fight would happen, as the Weeping Star seemed to be pressed down slowly.

It was then.

At some point, Kirson, who was guarding the middle floor, came down to the reservoir and approached.

“Boss, they are united.”

“……Oh yeah.”

It was something that could be confirmed without having to fight with each other. In this state, Kirson and the monsters seemed to have instructed everyone to back down as it was useless to waste time.

They can’t stop enemies anyway.

“Good job. Now, hide where I said.”

Even the Cursed, if they feel the situation is bad, they will come down thinking that it is better to fight with Hyunmoo than to overdo it. Hyunmoo also thought that it was better.

“Yes, boss. But…”

Kirsson hesitated for some reason.

Now the apostles will run straight towards Hyunmoo without any checks or blockages. However, Hyunmoo was telling Kirsson to take the monsters and stand back.

“Oh, don’t be moved unnecessarily. I’m going to win anyway, but if you guys get robbed for no meaning, I can’t be in charge. What am I going to do in the main camp without a single worker?”

“Wouldn’t it be better for me to stay?”

Hyunmoo thought Kirsson’s words were surprising.

I thought that Kirsson’s relationship with him was only for business.

Kirson for the survival of his tribe and his own growth, Hyunmoo for his leadership and knowledge.

However, he did not know that he would commit himself to a battle in which his life might be in danger.

“Do whatever you like. If you want to stay, stick with Ha-hyun. Now… because the birth is imminent, so I may not be able to use my strength to fight.”

Ha-hyeon was doing her best to hatch, as if she had decided that it would be better to hatch Sang-hyeon in a hurry rather than dragging her heavy body erratically.

If the timing was right, it could have hatched before the apostle appeared.

It is unknown how much the newborn Sang-hyeon will be of help, but he believed that it would not be a useless item, as it was a ‘gift’ that Monstrill had made out of spite.

Kirsson nodded his head. As he was about to approach Ha-hyun, he suddenly stopped and looked back at Hyunmoo.

“Boss, don’t die.”

“I’m not dead. Dude. Do you remember how many times you killed me?”

“There is nothing in the world that does not die. Boss.”

Kirsson responded with a strangely calm world. At his unexpected appearance, Hyunmoo looked at him with a puzzled expression.

“The boss is an idiot if he really thinks he won’t die.”

“How do you know that?”

Kirsson answered Hyunmoo’s words with a grin.

“Can’t you remember how many times I’ve killed the boss? This time it’s especially dangerous. Cursed or something.”

“Don’t worry about that… because I also put a safety device on it.”

Of course, it cannot be said to be perfect.

But what is the safest way to fight against the apostle?

It was right to use all available means.

“Anyway, don’t die. I’ll be watching the back of your head.”

***

And after 8 hours.

The combined forces of Curie and Kawaro have arrived at the underground reservoir.
