#Kowloon City scenery

Meanwhile, Mao and Soo, who had first entered the underground passage of Kowloon City, were in a state of confusion.

“Jang Il-seo… …?”

“this…….”

Because no matter how long I waited, there was no sign of Jang Seo and Gwa Pyeong coming.

Moreover, Soo saw it clearly.

‘I never thought the Three Elders would show up… … .’

It was a natural course of action since my child had been kidnapped. But no matter how much I tried to understand it with common sense, my shocked heart could not calm down.

The Divine Spear Demon, Maeng Cheol-yong.

Because they couldn’t believe that one of the absolute masters representing the Demonic Cult had just tried to kill them.

‘Jang I-seo. Is this the size of the board you’re on right now?’

As a crow cleaner, he always lived his life in the background, erasing traces. So he was almost never at the forefront of an incident.

But now that I’m standing on the stage where Jang Seo is, isn’t it beyond my imagination?

A strange feeling of fear and elation at the same time.

“Let’s go back. Jang-seo isn’t coming!”

“Haha, yes. I guess that’s better than going in alone. Even if we go, there’s no one to explain anything about us.”

Mao and Soo nodded. And at that moment, they were about to turn around.

“Stop!”

Suddenly a shout came from inside.

“this.”

Shadows fell over both their faces, and deep sighs were let out.

Ta-da-da-dak!

In an instant, armed soldiers rush in and engage in a wheeled battle.

Those with sharp facial features are the Iron Horses.

Mao poked Soo in the side, tense with his spear aimed at them.

“Hey, innkeeper. Tell me something.”

“My name is not Innkeeper… … Anyway.”

Ahem. Soo-oh cleared his throat with a cough and opened his mouth.

“excuse me.”

“Invaders!”

“no!”

One of the bandits suddenly turned his spear and stabbed Soo-oh in the stomach. He turned his body to dodge, and the bandits, who had closed the distance in an instant, thrust their spear tips in at once, leaving Soo-oh no time to move.

“what are you doing?!”

“Haha, these guys are a bit sensitive.”

“Oh, okay. Leave this to me.”

“No, Your Majesty?”

Mao ignored Soo’s warning and pushed aside the spears blocking his way, then shouted with a confident air.

“I am Mao! I have come here to negotiate with the captain.”

Then the Iron Horse enemies started whispering among themselves with serious faces.

At this, the corners of Mao’s mouth slightly rose.

As expected. As the genius expected.

Just like Gwapyeong, there will definitely be people who understand what I’m saying, and the rookies can’t help but be flustered when they hear the word “leader.”

Why? Because a genius like me is not worthy of being called upon by them.

Mao smiled curiously and glanced back to ask.

“what.”

“They want me to kill you?”

“what?!”

Wheaaaaaaaaa!

As I turn my head, a bandit in front of me fiercely thrusts his spear into my face.

“Oh my god, this is crazy!”

One more thing, he is not the Mao of old.

Compared to the Jang Seo he had faced so far, this level of fighting was just a drop in the bucket.

He slightly turned his head to avoid the attack, then pushed the bandit’s chest hard with his palm.

“Ugh!”

Then the bandit groaned and flew away, crashing into the wall and fainting.

Other bandits, enraged by this, tried to come forward.

Ting!

This time, Soo, who was behind him, instantly snapped his fingers and fired a dark energy.

“Huh?! ”

“Cough!”

The bandits fell backwards with their foreheads struck.

“coin?!”

I looked at the floor and saw two coins rolling back.

As everyone looked on in surprise, Soo-oh was also surprised and picked up the coin again.

“Why did you throw this?”

Oh, that pathetic kid. Mao frowned and said, rubbing his palm.

“What are you looking at, you little shits?”

The bandits realized that these two were strong.

There was a moment of silence, and in an instant it entered a lull.

Mao and Soo stood back to back and congratulated each other on the recent situation.

“It’s a little different from what I heard.”

“You’re a very petty innkeeper, but you’re strong.”

“Haha, I’m not the innkeeper, I’m So-oh.”

“Maoda.”

chuck!

Ssang-oh turns his body and takes a stance facing the bandits with his back to them. Still, they are quite in sync after walking together for a few days.

“By the way, is this what you said you would do on your own? The situation has only gotten more difficult.”

“They started it first?”

I should have just caught Jang Bo-jo and Yong. Maeng Cheol-yong.

Soo-oh shook his head and looked around.

“These kids dare… … .”

The Iron Horse has bared its fangs and revealed its will to kill, and the situation has already gone too far to be resolved through dialogue.

And judging by the way they stand diagonally so as not to interfere with each other’s fighting, they are clearly trained.

“What do we do now?”

Mao asked. Soo pushed his sunglasses with his index finger and adjusted them before answering.

“I don’t normally do things for free, but since you are the Seven Princes, I will take care of it.”

“how?”

“My specialty is cleaning up.”

“I don’t feel so good, but I’m okay. I’ll try to fix it.”

Mao took a step back, and Soo took a step forward. It was a change of direction.

Soo cleared his throat and raised both his hands affectionately towards the angry soldier and shouted.

“surrender!”

“what?!”

Mao let out a sigh of relief at the disappointing development.

“You’re really sick, man.”

Mao narrowed his eyes and rolled up his sleeves. It meant that he wanted to have a go at it. To be honest, I gained some confidence after fighting someone just now.

‘I did it without thinking, but I got a feeling.’

It was definitely like that. In the past, he had just poured his strength into it without thinking, but just now, he had unknowingly stored a small amount of his danjeon’s internal energy into his palm and released it.

He said that the method of utilizing internal energy that he learned from Jang I-seo had now reached a point where he could do it automatically without even thinking about it.

In short, it is just beginning to take its first steps.

However, Mao’s fighting spirit quickly cooled down when he heard Soo’s voice.

[Your Majesty, please go inside first.]

A voice that no one else can hear. It is the upper-level sound of Jeon-eum-ip-mil, which is difficult to learn. Mao’s eyes widened. What on earth is this guy’s true identity?

[It seems like these guys don’t even know how to use a needle. Let’s just pretend to surrender. Wouldn’t it be better to go and find the Sixth Prince first? That’s why I came here.]

Otherwise, the dragons outside won’t stay still.

After much persuasion from Soo, Mao finally nodded.

“shit.”

I soon swore and raised both hands. I thought it was better than just going through it, whether I believed it or not.

Then, the bandits came up roughly, snatched the spear and dragon sword from his back, and tied him up with ropes.

“… … Take him away!”

So Mao and Soo headed to the brain prison.

* * *

Meanwhile, the two people were trapped in the brain prison.

“Gwapyeong. Wake up, Gwapyeong!”

Jang Yi-seo was quickly entering the underground passageway carrying Gwapyeong on his back.

“Wake up!”

He looked more desperate than ever. It was only natural. The image of him trying to save himself, laughing, and being torn to pieces was still vivid in my mind.

How can anyone be in their right mind after seeing this?

furthermore…….

‘Still alive.’

His heartbeat was faint, but it was clearly felt beyond his back. It was a miracle. He had lost a lot of blood, and his body was in tatters. But his naturally strong muscles had avoided death.

If you somehow get treatment quickly, you might survive.

‘Just wait a moment.’

So Jang-seo gritted his teeth and ran through the underground passage.

And before long, a large number of iron-clad soldiers appeared blocking the road.

“Stop!”

The warriors’ sharp cries rang in my ears. The tone was not friendly.

‘What happened to Mao and Soo?’

The first person who entered was nowhere to be seen, and only the bandits who were very alert remained. Soon, Jang-seo lowered his head and picked up a bent coin that had fallen on the floor.

A faint trace of blood.

I knew right away that it wasn’t going to be a very good situation.

“Arrest that guy too!”

The bandits are rushing in.

It would be best to resolve this through conversation, but right now I don’t have time to explain everything step by step, starting with the gatekeeper.

So there is only one answer left.

Phew!

Jang I-seo jumped up from his seat and started running in reverse towards the oncoming bandits.

“Hey, stop it!”

The panicked soldiers each drew their swords from their positions. One disheveled display was full of holes in Jang Yiseo’s eyes.

After lowering his posture as much as possible, he dashed through the gaps between the soldiers in a sprint.

“W-Close the door!”

He tried to hurriedly close the second gate leading to Guryongseong from inside. But it was too late.

“omg!”

A man who passed through before the iron gate even moved.

Soon he raised his head and looked around.

A dark, empty space, completely blocked on all sides.

A dozen or so bandits, armed and with tense faces, are waiting.

And the ladder going up right in the middle!

There it is.

“Intruder! You must not let him go!”

At someone’s obvious shout, the scattered bandits rush in front of Jang Yiseo. But even that is obvious.

Jang Yi-seo jumped up from his seat and ran again.

“no?!”

Then, he stepped on the knees and shoulders of the person who came close and climbed up, and ran all the way over the bandit’s head. And then, bang! He jumped up to a height of almost 6m in one go and grabbed the ladder and hung on.

Movements that no flying squirrel has.

Then, he hurriedly took out his bow and pulled the string. But that only lasted for a moment.

“Stop!”

The one who appeared to be a senior raised his hand and mediated with narrowed eyes. Everyone was taken aback, but the reason was clear.

It was only then that I realized who the person riding on Jang Il-seo’s back was.

“Captain… …!”

Gwapyeong, covered in blood and unconscious. That was him.

The soldiers could only sigh at the incomprehensible situation, like a dog chasing a chicken and looking up at the roof.

And Jang Yi-seo, who had finally entered Kowloon Castle by climbing the ladder, paused for a moment at the sight before his eyes.

“Here… … .”

The dark and musty interior looked like a back alley in a plague town. All sorts of junk made a maze of paths, and old, sick people dressed in rags were sitting everywhere.

They all had sunken cheeks and sunken eyes, as if they were suffering from the same contagious disease.

Moreover, some of them were so severely ill that they seemed to have difficulty controlling their bodies.

“What are the actual interests… … .”

How difficult it must have been for them to show indifference to the stranger who showed up. They were already fighting a serious illness that made everything seem insignificant.

It’s so different from what I thought.

But seeing these gives me still hope.

If the situation inside was like this, I would have definitely gone to the doctor.

“Congressman. Where are you, Congressman!”

As they shouted loudly in their own language, the sick looked at each other and looked around. Then Jang-seo spoke in a louder voice.

“Over-estimation is critical!”

Only then did everyone look astonished. What an overstatement. In an instant, the situation became chaotic and a commotion broke out.

And after a while.

“And… … rating?”

Someone came down the dim stairs behind me and said:

The sick people who found him all bowed their heads in greeting. Jang-seo also turned around with a stiff face.

Then, two people stood there tall.

Those who give off a dangerous aura just by existing.
