Episode 429. Suspicion (4)

One side of the blown metal box rolled helplessly across the dirt floor.

In the unexpected situation, Do-cheol and Peter’s gaze did not leave the metal box.

“What, what?!”

“… … !”

Only Yuri, who knows what happened, looks at the metal box with a faint smile.

Do-cheol was surprised and hid behind Yu-ri’s legs, and although Peter didn’t flinch, he still looked surprised.

But their real surprise was just beginning.

Ssuk-.

What slowly emerged from inside the metal box was a cross-section of a severed leg.

And not just any bridge, but a golden bridge.

The severed leg that had risen from within the box looked around as if it was checking left and right.

Then, it suddenly jumps up and escapes from the box.

“Ugh!”

“Me, me?!”

Do-cheol and Peter also had a rough idea of ​​what was in the box.

But even they didn’t know that the remains that had been buried in the ground for nearly a thousand years were still intact.

I never even imagined that a severed leg could move as if it were alive.

Because of that, Peter’s eyes grew so big that they looked like they were going to pop out, and Do-cheol took a step back in slight fear.

Meanwhile, Yuri squatted down on the spot and opened her mouth towards the severed leg.

“This time, your left leg? Okay, you’re going left.”

Since the arms were named right and left, Yuri gave the leg the name left foot to differentiate it.

His left foot hopped towards the glass.

Thump thump thump-.

The left foot stood in front of the glass, making a dull sound.

The guy is… … .

puck-.

“evil!”

He kicked Yuri in the shin.

Yuri rolled around, clutching her shin, after being attacked out of nowhere.

The left foot lightly stepped on the glass.

Thud thud thud-!

No, to be more precise, it would be more appropriate to say that he climbed on top of Yuri, who was rolling around, and jumped on her.

Of course, there’s no way Yuri could keep getting hit.

He quickly snatched the left foot away.

“This is crazy! What the hell is this!”

The left foot, caught by Yuri, kept shaking its body.

Pat pat pat-!

“Oh my! You worked so hard to create the atmosphere, why are you acting like this! At times like this, I want you to cooperate!”

Pat pat pat-!

Yuri wrestles while holding onto her left foot, which is fluttering like a freshly caught fish.

At that sight, Do-cheol and Peter both looked dumbfounded.

Yuri and Left Foot, who had been bickering so fiercely, were finally able to separate after a long time.

Yuri, who was shaking off the dust on her body, and her left foot suddenly turning away from him.

Looking at that sight, one thought naturally occurred to Peter.

‘… It’s like watching a couple who are really upset and whining, asking why you came now.’

Ouch-!

Peter flinched as he realized the thought that had occurred to him.

Although he tried hard to deny it, saying, ‘There’s no way that could happen,’ it seems that Peter wasn’t the only one who felt that way about the current situation.

“You should have come now, you’re already making a fuss over something so trivial.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the left foot, which had been turning its back, quickly turned its body towards Yuri again.

Thump thump thump-!

The left foot, which had been jumping heavily in place as if to say, ‘I’m angry,’ glanced towards Peter this time.

Yuri snorted as she noticed the meaning.

“Oh, if I had been just a little bit later, I would have been dragged away by that old man?”

Knock knock-!

“Hey, you shouldn’t have been dragged away, right?”

puck-!

“Oh, sir! Stop cracking my shins! That bastard on the right cracks my head all the time, and you’re a shin!”

As if we were friends who had known each other for a long time.

Peter’s expression hardened as he looked at Yuri and Yeo-Ri, who were not shy about interacting with each other.

‘That can’t be… That can’t be… … .’

Even though I kept denying it, I couldn’t help but be shaken when I saw their natural appearance.

And did he notice Peter’s feelings?

Yuri smiled at him once, then stretched out her hand and opened her mouth.

“Stop whining and come here too.”

Along with those words, golden liquid flowed out from Yuri’s palm.

When Peter saw this, he found himself clenching his fist.

‘Sir, really?!’

His fist was trembling because he had clenched it so tightly.

The trembling spread throughout his body as he saw the golden liquid flowing out of Yuri’s palm and becoming long strips.

Then finally the golden liquid turns into a broken sword.

Peter’s trembling stopped only after he witnessed the sight of his severed left leg turning into golden particles and being absorbed by the sword.

“… … .”

Peter’s fist loosens up.

He absorbed his left leg and stared at the sword, which was now about 15 centimeters longer than before, as if in a state of ecstasy, muttering helplessly.

“Wolu… … .”

There was no doubt.

Even though it wasn’t fully formed yet, it was definitely a moon.

‘There is no other object in the world with such a distinct spirituality.’

A spirit called Tears of the Moon.

And another nickname that stuck with it was… … .

‘The treasure of the King of the Moon.’

It was a treasure that symbolized the supremacy and heirloom of the Geumwol family.

And the reason why Wolu became a treasure symbolizing the Supreme Being was simple.

‘Only those chosen by Wolru can be called the King of Wolru.’

It was a long-standing tradition and unwritten rule of Geumwolmyeongga.

But it is said that a long time ago, with the death of the last King of Yue, Yuelu also disappeared.

But it seems that wasn’t the case.

‘It wasn’t that he disappeared. Wolu… was just with him even after death.’

Among the shattered remains of the King of Yue, Yuelu was also divided and fell into a deep sleep for a long time.

Waiting for a new Moon King to take him under his wing.

‘I see, the captain… knew that.’

Ian Oakland, Commander of the White Swords.

A being who ordered him to collect the remains of the last King of the Moon.

He must have known that Yuelu was sleeping among the remains of the King of Yue.

Because of this, Peter’s consciousness reached the round flask in his trouser pocket.

The flask that was protected even as the top was torn to pieces and flown away.

I could feel the tiny droplets of liquid inside constantly hitting the walls of the glass bottle.

At first I thought it was simply a return to where it belonged, to the head of the main unit.

But that was a huge mistake on his part.

‘This is what it’s trying to go back to… … .’

An object that a small liquid droplet wants to return to.

That’s right… … .

‘It was that guy.’

It was glass.

Peter’s expression as he stared silently at the glass was very complicated.

I can’t be happy or sad.

However, it is a reality where one cannot readily accept or deny what one has seen.

‘If that child is really… no, if that person is the true successor of the King of Yue… … .’

What should I do?

Also, what should the clan that follows the current leader do in the future?

When Peter was like that, he was silent and had a complicated expression on his face.

Yuri’s eyes, which had been somewhat hazy, returned to normal.

“Phew… … .”

Peter, who had completely lost all trace of life in his vision, was caught in his sight as he let out a small sigh.

After that, he opened his mouth and took Wolru back into his body.

“Peter Lehmann.”

“… … .”

Yuri smiled at Peter, who met her gaze at her call.

“Doesn’t it seem like we have a lot to talk about?”

“… … .”

Peter’s gaze at the glass became even more complex.

“These old men are going to die!”

Arriving at her lab, Se-gyeong gritted her teeth as she thought about the Masters.

‘How dare you do something like this to my research equipment!’

There was no guarantee that his research would remain intact, as he was permanently banished to the cradle.

No, I certainly expected that a lot of research materials would have been destroyed or sealed.

Just one thing.

I was still thinking that the core research facilities would be intact.

Why?

‘Because I made it so that it would explode if you touch it wrong.’

If you touch the equipment carelessly, the bombs installed throughout the equipment will cause a chain explosion.

The explosion had a radius of 1km centered around the laboratory.

So, I was confident that even if other research materials and equipment were damaged, this core equipment would be intact.

But those old masters were messing with their equipment.

‘Fucking old men!’

No, I wasn’t even able to get my anger down with just the damn curse.

Se-gyeong gritted her teeth as she looked at her equipment in the large tank filled with dark blue liquid.

‘Sigh!’

As he was once considered to be the next Meister of the Ramel School, Se-gyeong immediately figured out the identity of the dark blue liquid.

‘It’s Cheongyu.’

A bluish oil.

However, unlike ordinary oils, it had an extremely high flash point and at the same time had a terrifying density.

The pyrotechnics will raise the ignition point of the bombs mounted on the equipment, and even if the bomb explodes, it will act as an absorber and disperse the shock.

But what was more troublesome was that although turpentine normally flows as a liquid, it has the property of solidifying into a solid even under slight impact.

And the hardened turpentine becomes as hard as a rock and takes decades to return to its original state.

‘The moment you try to break the tank, the turbidity will harden.’

Also, if you dive into the turbid water to rescue the equipment, it will solidify along with the turbid water.

Because of this, Se-gyeong gritted her teeth in a situation where she couldn’t do anything even though her equipment was right in front of her.

‘I don’t know about anything else… but I absolutely have to take this!’

That facility was the beginning and the end of his research.

Considering the materials that went into making the equipment, it could never be recreated.

Even if other things can be replaced, that equipment must be taken.

‘It’s not that there is no way!’

The only way is to carry it like this.

The problem was size and weight.

The basic equipment alone weighs over 1,200 kg.

But if you add the weight of the oil and the tank to that, it would easily exceed several tons.

‘But I can’t give up like this!’

Just looking at this, I ran away from the cradle.

I could never give up.

So Se-gyeong started to harass the Baekgeom Byeongdan members.

“Be careful… Move carefully!”

With so many people trained in magic hanging around, moving objects weighing several tons wasn’t that difficult.

Should I just be wary of the rushing Goljok or worry about the tank being shocked?

Because there were so many things to worry about, the speed at which the tank was moved was extremely slow.

While I was concentrating on moving the equipment for several hours.

Pheew pheew- bang!

The expressions of the Baekgeom Byeongdan and Se-gyeong changed at the sight of the yellow signal flare rising into the sky.

“Signal to retreat!”

“Why is that coming up now?!”

A signal flare that came up much earlier than the originally expected retreat time.

Then the Baekgeom Byeongdan members urged him.

“When the signal flare goes up, you must arrive at the meeting place within 30 minutes!”

“We won’t be able to arrive on time at this rate!”

Se-gyeong’s brow furrowed at the urging of the Baekgeom Byeongdan members.

“Damn it! Why is that suddenly coming up! There’s still plenty of time!”

A resounding cry of frustration, annoyance, anger and frustration rang out.

Se-gyeong bit her lip as she thought about giving up the equipment that was her everything.

‘No… that can’t be!’

I invested a whole three years into this project.

Perhaps an opportunity like today will never come again.

So, Se-gyeong made a decision and approached the water tank.

‘Just take it… Just take it!’

A tightly clenched fist.

He priced the tank with his anger.

Kuung–!

A heavy impact was transmitted to the tank.

Then, the blue oil in the tank hardened in an instant.

Damn it- damn it-!

This means that to get the equipment out of the smelter, you either have to wait for decades or you have to chip away at the smelter and risk damaging the equipment.

Se-gyeong’s eyes lit up as she knew that fact.

‘Even if it takes several years, I will definitely get it out of there!’

Se-gyeong, who had made a strong pledge, shouted to the members of the Baekgeom Byeongdan.

“Now don’t worry about getting stiff and just run!”

“All right!”

The Baekgeom Byeongdan members nodded as if their worries had been relieved and quickly began to move while holding the lumps of hardened blue oil.

Se-gyeong’s eyes, following behind, were still burning brightly.

***

Meanwhile, at a similar time.

Pheew pheew- bang!

Yuri tilted her head as she watched the Baekgeom Byeongdan members gathering where the yellow signal flare had exploded.

“Hmm… What are you going to do with that?”
