Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking - Chapter 149



Episode 143. Are we going to try it?

Currently, there is one more demon slash party in addition to Kyungmin Baek’s party in the City of the Dead.

One person returned to deliver information to the guild hideout, so there are only five of them, but all of them are powerful people who come and go to the Abyss.

As much as he entrusted support to the rear in case of an emergency, Baek Kyung-min was confident that he would overcome anything in the future, even if he was alone at the party.

Beep-!

I sent a signal to the 2nd party in ambush behind me.

At most, we will join in one minute.

‘Damn the cook. They must have noticed that we were watching.’

In the first place, I had no intention of hiding that I was being monitored.

I was going to see how the cook reacted.

‘I did not pretend, but there are not one or two suspicious things.’

Who dares to suggest it, but both of you are eager to join the strongest guild called Demon Slash, but the chef arrogantly refused to join the guild from the beginning.

Even the refusal was not once.

Of course, you can refuse.

But the serious problem is…

‘I never thought I’d play with those f*cking slimes.’

It doesn’t look like you’ve officially joined that guild yet, but you should see it as one in fact.

At least, Baek Kyung-min was so sure.

‘How much money does it cost to hunt once, do you invite outsiders to join the raid because you’re crazy?’

It’s not just raids.

‘That cook. I’m sure he’s crazy about money.’

Slime Master Everett Lowell has long been known as a wealthy man.

He is a guy who used to spend as much money as a joke, several times higher than the big players in Korea.

It’s a rumor, but the gold in the inventory is worth trillions?

He’s a cook who looks like he’ll reveal money at a glance.

No matter how effective it is, to sell a dish that loses its effect in a few hours at such a crazy price.

Certainly.

He must have stuck that way because of the money.

‘Even if he doesn’t have a direct connection to this incident… There’s no way the slime guys didn’t use polite cooking to treat Yoo-seok like that.’

Roh Yoo-seok was an executive at Demon Slash, full of flying and crawling guys.

It’s because there is no fixed party to go into the Abyss with, but he was a talented person who could have done his part well enough if given the opportunity.

If he had been a tanker or healer instead of an archer, he might have taken the place of Kyungmin Baek now.

The fact that such a guy died alone in the middle of the city without even asking for help means that his opponent was overwhelmingly strong.

In order to do things quietly, I would have had no choice but to move in small numbers, but it is obvious that there must have been a definite means to overwhelm him with a small number.

‘A better dish than what Daesan sold to his brother…’

You can tell just by looking at it today.

The more I watched, the more the cooks grew stronger like monsters.

Perhaps they are stronger than those who have been in and out of the Abyss.

No matter how you look at it, the cause must be the cooking with a huge buff.

‘Those little kids are like that. If the slimes ate similar dishes, it would have been difficult for them to survive alone even if they were lost… Without even having time to call for support… Kuh!’

The hand holding the sword is full of power.

Bright red blood oozes from the molars that he bit into.

‘Cheoljoong seems to want to drag him over to us until the end…’

Kyung-min thinks differently.

He’s already attached to the slime, and keeping him alive will only make him a troublesome enemy.

Moreover, there is a high probability that he is related to Roh Yoo-seok’s death.

I can’t accept a guy like that as a colleague.

Then, when the opportunity presents itself.

Before they grow up and enter the Abyss, we must end the slimes before they use their cooking to increase their power.

‘Maybe this is my last chance…’

If the investigation by the guild leaders proves that Roh Yoo-seok’s death and the slime guys are related, eventually, a war will inevitably break out between the two guilds.

‘I don’t think we’ll lose to those guys, but…’

What if buff dishes were only served to gnomes?

Then you can never guarantee victory.

Didn’t he feel it himself too?

With just one dish, attack power and survivability are more than twice as strong as before.

‘So…’

There is no better place than here.

Even if the cooks and the others don’t appear in public again, everyone will agree.

This is the worst dungeon with nightmare difficulty, where the dead and missing people always pour in.

Because it is the city of the dead.

* * *

A shadow popped out through the dust.

No matter how you look at it, it was the guy I saw at the entrance.

‘But why did you come alone?’

Well, it doesn’t matter much.

In the end, without a tanker, the guys behind you won’t be able to move recklessly.

I hid on the second floor of a still intact building and looked down at the entrance of the aristocratic street.

The man with the shield appeared alone and looked around her eagerly.

No matter how you look at it, it was clear that they were looking for us.

‘I’m sorry, but until when do you have any plans to perform for free?’

Ring!

[Durek, the leader of the exiled knights, expresses fierce anger at the gaze looking at him.]

The plan is simple.

Putting the boss’s aggro on the guys chasing us, and we take advantage of that gap to get rid of them.

I destroyed an entire large building to buy time to hide and lure them to the boss.

‘Who would have thought Michael had something like that?’

At first, I tried to use a smoke grenade.

But Michael suddenly brought out a rare potion called ‘Essence of Explosion’.

This is a special potion used in some quests. It is an item used to remove huge rocks or collapsed buildings blocking the path.

‘I thought it wasn’t a quest item, but I made it myself…’

It seems that I will have to negotiate with him again.

What the hell are you doing, you have so many coveted items?

‘Ah, now is not the time for this.’

Quaang!

Just now, mid-boss Durek’s first attack hit the demon slash tanker’s shield.

I haven’t counterattacked yet, but the boss’s aggro is towards him anyway.

As long as we avoid the boss’ wide area well, there is no chance that the boss’s gaze will be directed at us unless our party attacks.

‘But where did all the other guys really go?’

Did you notice?

Is it a trap?

Move carefully.

Although they are quite strong, having a mid-boss does not significantly reduce their strength.

‘It’s easier to sneak around when the whole party starts a boss fight…’

When I looked at you like that.

From noble mtl dot com

Most of the dust that was obstructing the view soon disappeared.

Then, those who had not been seen before appeared.

“!?”

But a problem arose.

The place where they appeared was the roof of the building where my colleagues were hiding.

‘How did you know? No, is it just a coincidence?’

Was the tank a bait to draw attention?

How the hell did you get there?

At that time, when many questions bloomed, the destructive greatsword emanating a vicious red aura was swung with force that could cut through the moon.

‘No!’

Just like the demon grinder I use, it was the legendary great sword that can only be obtained in the Abyss Dungeon, the ‘Earth Slicer’.

Kurlureung!

The basic skill ‘Earth Slicing’, which is attached to the Earth Cutter, was automatically activated, and the whole building was collapsing like before.

My colleagues are hiding under that building.

[Warning! Player ‘Biro”s teammates have been damaged by an attack. It is in self-defense.]

And the message I heard.

‘…I made up my mind.’

Attack attempted with protection mode off.

That means they tried to kill us.

“Lemonooooo!”

Colleagues who must have been buried under the rubble of the building.

But I wasn’t worried.

‘I have to hurry up and join you.’

Because we have always been simulating for situations like this.

Kwaguawang!

Remnants of collapsed old buildings rose in all directions along with a cloud of white dust.

And in the center, a woman with a shield stood with her back to her companions.

I shouted as I jumped straight to the railing on the second floor.

“Sacrifice!”

Landed on the ground and ran forward at the same time,

As the distance narrowed, a magical chain that started with the lemon connected us all.

Then use the blessing of the saint.

Amplified Dot Heal began to heal everyone’s damage.

‘Whew.. I almost got into trouble.’

Since I was moving alone, the buffs of my colleagues were canceled.

Because of that, I hurriedly turned the buff skill.

In the meantime, the dust gradually cleared, and the five people who were on the roof a little while ago appeared.

Demon Slash and the gang that watched over us at the entrance.

“What are you doing all of a sudden?!”

The other side doesn’t attack.

I asked a question to pass the time.

I wondered how they didn’t rush right away, and it took time for my colleagues covered in dust in the sudden situation to recover.

“Isn’t that the suspicious one? Why did you suddenly disappear?”

“What? We were just looking for the timing to hunt the boss! And what does it matter if we disappear or not?”

The excuses are already ready.

No matter how it comes out, it is not difficult to accept it in words.

‘But when will they attack again and again, and why don’t they attack now?’

Is it because of the tanker facing the boss over there?

Otherwise…

My colleagues finished maintenance while I was thinking.

It was fortunate.

‘If you’re going to kill us, you’ll regret giving us your time now? Well, I have no intention of losing even if I jump right in.’

“Kwaaagh! Punish the traitor!”

It was then.

I heard the voice of the middle boss knight leader.

[Warning! Durek, the exiled knight leader, casts ‘Forced Mobilization’. Skeleton soldiers nearby are gathering here.]

“What are you guys doing!”

While dealing with the boss alone, a man who seemed to be the leader of the other party approached and shouted.

‘Huh?’

But it was a little strange.

The target of his anger was his colleagues, not us.

‘What is it?’

How come things seem strangely twisted?
