Regression Life Starting With Two Traits - Chapter 140
Chapter 141 Giant lizard in the rocky desert area
The bird Ajin brought was a familiar bird that I had seen somewhere.
I asked Ajin, who was petting the bird.
“Are we flying?”
“Are you flying? Anemos is a flightless bird. Instead, they are faster than horses in deserts and grasslands.”
Surprised by Ahjin’s explanation, I looked at the bird again and remembered.
The face of this bird was engraved on the belt that Hyuk obtained from the imperial treasury of the empire.
I heard the same explanation from the warehouse keeper then.
And Anemos… … .
[Yes, that’s my name. It’s no coincidence. In ancient language, Anemos means wind.]
Anemos, the element of wind.
These birds seem to have been given that name because they run as fast as the wind.
“I think I heard that it is a rare species, but it seems that there are many in the East?”
When I asked, Ajin said, “What do you mean by that?”
“Is it a rare species? Who is it? Aren’t these the ones that are widely spread across the eastern grasslands?”
“Is it wide open?”
“It might be hard to see in the west, but there are many in the eastern grasslands. This is also their habitat.”
Quite good!
As if agreeing to Ajin’s words, one of them made a sound like a duck.
“okay.”
Well, the desert between the East and West was teeming with monsters of all kinds.
Even a bird with fast legs would have had a hard time living in such an environment.
So it must be a rarity for Westerners.
I cautiously approached and stroked the back of the bird like Ajin does.
It was a trained bird, so I didn’t express my objection.
“Have you ever ridden a horse?”
I nodded my head at Ajin’s question.
“It’s just like a horse. It just took the shape of a bird.”
Ajin also taught me other rules to be careful of.
After that, we rode Anemos and left the barracks.
“Ah, the speed is quite fast, so be careful not to fall. under!”
As the desert outside the barracks unfolded, Azin issued a warning and made the Anemos run.
I ran at the speed of the real wind, so I wondered how fast it would be.
“How fast, no matter how fast… … Wow!”
But I soon had to regret that thought.
It was because it was very different from running at that speed myself and feeling riding on something.
[Puhahahahaha. okay! If you got my name, this should be it!]
At a faster pace than I thought, I squeezed the reins and strained my lower body to keep from falling.
“I said I was fast!”
Ah-jin, who was running side by side, shouted.
I didn’t dare to answer him.
The birds that inherited the name of Anemos were running that fast.
We started across the desert at the speed of the wind.
*
The sandy desert area ended and the rocky desert began to unfold.
Huge rocks revealed their grandeur, and in some places, deep valleys were seen.
“Do people live in places like this?”
The end of the sand dune is on high ground, so we had to go down the rocks.
There was a wide expanse of dry land below where we were going.
“That’s why I do nomadic activities. No one can settle down in such an inhospitable environment. and.”
Ajin stopped talking and then pointed to the edge of the desert and said.
“At the end of this desert are grasslands and rainforests. Most of us live there.”
The way down was rough, so I had to get off Anemos and drag it along.
“Are there any monsters?”
In response to my question, Ajin looked around and cautiously put out his foot and said,
“The thing to watch out for most in the rocky area is not poisonous snakes or scorpions.”
“Then what?”
“A lizard.”
“lizard?”
When I asked back, Ajin put a finger on her lips and looked ahead with a serious face.
“The lizards that live in the rocky desert are large, but they have the same skin color as the rocks, so it is difficult to tell them apart.”
Ah Jin cautiously moved forward and continued his explanation.
“Normally, it sits quietly attached to a rock wall, but when someone touches it first, or when it wakes up hungry, it becomes an outlaw in the desert.”
“Are there any weaknesses?”
“I heard that you are weak against magic. And I’ve heard that it’s a bit dull for its size. But don’t be careless.”
Ajin said firmly and continued to move his feet.

Nothing much happened until they came down all the rocks and landed on a flat surface.
I followed Ajin and asked what I was curious about.
“By the way, didn’t the gate open in the east?”
It was said that the reason the gate was formed was the work of demons, or cracks were formed due to it.
As it affects the whole world, there may be a gate in the east as well.
However, at least among the information I know, there has been no mention of finding a gate in a similar environment.
Besides, this could be an important proof that demons are active in the east.
“there is. We’ve been in the middle of a headache because of it for several years.”
Again, the Eastern Region was also experiencing a gate.
If so, there was a high probability that demons had entered.
“So, what did the eastern region do with the gate?”
In the case of empires, they did not take any action other than dispatching wizards to investigate the outside because they were not created in civilian areas.
Because monsters didn’t come out through the gate like us.
So I wondered how Dongbu would react to Gates.
“At first, we were also taken aback. Because suddenly there are cracks and holes. However, Capitel was calm.”
Ahjin climbed onto the Anemos again and continued.
“He immediately prayed to God. And proclaimed to us.”
‘The rift is only the beginning. Prepare for a new world.’
“… … I mean.”
“Did you receive a trust?”
“It was a prophecy. It remains to be seen what the world will reveal, but Capitel is also a powerful shaman. There is no lie in his words.”
“You are very trustworthy.”
“He is our leader.”
Ajin said as if it was natural.
“So, what actions did you take after that?”
“I watched it for the first few years just in case, but nothing really posed a threat to us.”
As Jin spoke, he did not lose sight of his surroundings.
“So I just let it go. And the nomads were instructed to avoid areas with cracks.”
Well, for the first few years, we only dealt with guys coming out of the gate.
It was only recently that we went directly to the gate.

Nevertheless, considering that there is no information about this area before or even now, it may not have been that many gates were created.
And maybe there’s some information I’ve missed.
Because not all hunters in the world shared information.
“Tell me about Capitel. Who are you?”
“You have a lot of questions. Take a look and judge for yourself. My mission is to bring you to Capitel.”
Ajin said so and started his own Anemos.
Soon, the Anemos I rode started running after him.
bang!
It was then.
The earth trembled, and then a giant lizard’s paws came up from the gorge next to us.
The lizard that soon revealed its face was bigger than expected.
“Is that him?”
At my question, Ajin nodded and told me about the lizard.
“No matter how mage you are, you will have a hard time dealing with them.”
“Are they guys?”
“There is only one now, but there will be several more coming up behind me. We are fast, so let’s run away.”
Ajin put on a serious expression and spurred the Anemos he was riding.
As if to catch up with the faster Anemos, the Anemos I rode began to speed up as well.
thud!
Looking back, I saw the lizard’s head the size of a five-story building turned toward us.
Only the head was the size of a five-story building.
The body hasn’t even appeared yet.
Crow, roll, roll!
It looked like the Komodo lizards of our world, and as soon as they were all on the ground, they started hustling on all fours in our direction.

No matter how slow it was, it was only a matter of time before a guy the size of the 63 Building started running, and it was only a matter of time before he caught up.
In addition, two identical lizards were chasing him behind him.
‘Anemos! Can you speed them up some more?’
When I asked Anemos, the element of wind, he snorted and said,
[It’s not that simple. But I can’t help them fall down later.]
I didn’t think there would be any side effects.
I also had to lie down for days when I first surpassed my physical limits.
‘It’s okay, I’ll get out of the situation and see.’
[i get it.]
Soon, Anemos began to move, and we traversed the rocky desert at a speed we had never felt before.
Big and la la la!
The sound of the roaring guys chasing us from behind began to fade away.
Just when we thought we’d avoided one danger, other giant lizards started appearing beside us.
“How many of them are in that group?”
When I asked a question, Ajin made a ruler between her eyebrows and said,
“It’s the first time I’ve experienced it myself, so I heard that even ten of them stick together.”
“How did the person who told the story live?”
When I asked about the momentary sense of incongruity, Ajin put on a puzzled expression.
It seemed he didn’t even know.
“I’ve heard it from someone who wasn’t the person involved, so I don’t know.”
“Then I don’t think we should just run away. They seem like obsessive guys.”
Thanks to the system, I encountered various monsters whenever I ran through the Fantasia field.
The consistent behavior of the monsters that appeared each time was that they were tenacious in pursuing them until they entered the village.
It wasn’t just a tribal habit.
It was to the extent that even those who had the habit of running away when threatened would risk their lives to run away.
[Starts eradicating the virus.]
As expected, a system message appeared before my eyes.
“Ajin! Where is the nearest town?”
“Soon there will be many places where nomads stay for a while as the grasslands spread out! At this rate, about an hour!”
Ah Jin calculated the speed and distance and gave the time.
I said as I turned the Anemos I was riding on.
“Then, I guess we’ll have to wait some time!”
“What are you doing?!”
Turning around, Anemos saw the lizards running in front of him and started a game.
Pretty much! Quack! Quack! Quack!
Barely holding on to the struggling creature, I stretched out my hand toward the seven lizards running towards me.
Even with skin like steel, if it was vulnerable to magic, it might be a good game for me.
‘Anything, you have to try it to know.’
I summoned the elements and figured out a way to deal with the lizards.
And just like that, I had a good idea.
I thought I could put these guys to good use.
‘first… … It’s a sandstorm!’
Called Anemos, the element of wind, and Edaforce, the element of earth, to create a powerful sandstorm.
Quagmire and light!
“omg!”
Ah-jin, who stopped beside me, saw my magic and opened her mouth wide.
The lizards hesitated, not daring to break through the sandstorm.
“It was good.”
I didn’t end there and summoned Fydor, the element of water.
‘Make a dark cloud with Anemos. Let’s show how scary flying lightning can be in a dry sky.’
[All right.]
[I rub it hard.]
Soon, huge dark clouds began to cover the sandstorm.
And soon, lightning struck below with a flashing blue light.
Rumble! Kwagwagwang!
It was a few seconds later when the sound of thunder and lightning was heard.
Lightning streaks continued to strike the area for about ten minutes.
“you are… … Were you a weatherman?”
Ah-jin, who saw all of this, looked at me with round eyes and asked where his sharp eyes went.
“No, as you know, I am just a wizard.”
I got off the back of the Anemos I was riding and drew my sword.
“What, what are you doing? Are you sure you want to go in there?”
“It’s dangerous, Ahjin wait here.”
I smiled at Ah Jin, who asked in surprise, then jumped into the sandstorm with a mana aura on my sword.
The storm I created anyway.
As long as I was with the elements, I was safe in the storm.
