To Hell with Being a Saint, I’m a Doctor

Episode 816 Danger in Baybon (12)

Ray went down the mountain along the stream.

If you move to the waterside, not only will there be no traces left, but you can also prepare for any possible tracking scent.

The knowledge I learned from Hongyoung before was quite helpful.

There was no such penance as he tried to move while suppressing his mana so as not to be caught in the current that reached his waist.

“Be careful not to fall.”

Due to the steep slopes of the Baybon Mountains, the current is also rough.

I wonder if I didn’t do it in vain.

The members were centered and followed well.

However, after going through many things without getting enough sleep, he looked tired.

Deris encouraged them.

“If you leave the mountain range, you will soon see Celia’s trade route. You can rest enough when you return to the kingdom, so cheer up a little more.”

“Okay.”

“yes.”

You just need to get out of this mountain range.

With that thought, the members squeezed out their last strength.

Unlike them full of hope, Ray’s face was dying every moment.

‘There is an ambush ahead. If you touch it, it’s like telling us where we are.’

Right now, this road is a supply route known only to the Black Room.

Even so, the fact that the troops were deployed showed that the commander was a very prudent person.

“There is an ambush. It’s wrong here.”

“Mmm.”

Deris widened her senses.

But beyond the forest, nothing was felt.

There’s no way a saint would lie.

that is to say

He said there was an ambush ahead of him, although he didn’t know it.

‘Even if they’re saints, if they’re the same age as us, is there such a difference?’

To be honest, I don’t think all the rumors about the saint are true.

Like defeating an undead dragon single-handedly, subduing a group of Wyverns in the Lessian Empire and negotiating with the Empire.

Aren’t these rumors that are absurd even at first glance?

A little doubt appeared on Deris’ face as she looked at him.

“Excuse me, but is there really an ambush?”

“there is. There are only about ten people.”

“Then wouldn’t it be better to break through?”

break through?

There’s no way.

Those ten people could be called the elite of the black room.

To be honest, it was difficult to get out without sacrificing the Dengweedan, even if it was alone.

Besides, if you get caught, you may not be able to escape anymore.

Ray flatly refused.

“It’s too dangerous. The location may be known. In this case, it is best to turn around.”

It is impossible to dispute the words of the saint again.

Deris lowered her head and replied.

“All right. Do as you please.”

Deungwoldan left the stream and started to descend the mountain again.

They went down the slope because following the ridge was the easiest way to descend, but could be discovered by the dark room.

The sharp incline made them all nervous.

“Ugh!”

“Be careful.”

“Thank you.”

If you take even one wrong step, you will fall.

Among them, who were almost crawling down, Ray strode to help the members who had chosen the wrong path.

It’s a slope, but this is almost a rock wall.

But what does it mean to look relaxed as if walking on a flat surface?

“Help me too.”

“Hold your hand.”

“thank you!”

He picks up the members and leads them to a place that seems safe.

It is possible to support the weight of two people with almost only the toes.

It was a level that was difficult to even dare to imitate.

‘What the hell…’

Deris gnashed his teeth and went down to the ground.

When he came down, the other members, led by Lady Simon and Cade, were able to slowly step on their feet.

“Looks like everything has come down.”

“There is no more than one person.”

“Then…”

Ray, who was about to head for the trade route, suddenly stopped.

When I turned my head and expanded the feeling, a large army of over 20,000 was stationed along the trade route of Silia.

It is a movement as if they are waiting for them.

‘If I can’t go to Celia, there is only one option.’

Lawfield Plain.

Lich and Zeke would have prepared a place with the principality and allies, so it wouldn’t be particularly dangerous.

If there is a problem, there are so many troops that there is no countermeasure in the black room.

It would be best to run away again on the day they do attack the plains.

After thinking about it for a while, Ray eventually decided to head for the plains.

“The road to the trade route is blocked. We must go to Lawfield Plains.”

“…yes.”

“Huh….”

The speculation emanating from the 20,000 troops in the Heukbang could be felt even by the Deungwoldan.

As a result, there was no objection like before.

Ray thought as he looked at the burning capital of Baybon.

‘Now I’m thinking of trying it for real.’

Previously, it was just a matter of eating the land.

Heukbang decided and deployed troops on the continent, so the pressure was extraordinary.

Soldiers dealing with magic.

The power of action and judgment to collect information and move accordingly is not comparable to that of other kingdoms.

Didn’t I almost face an ambush because I read the escape route just now?

With trade routes blocked in advance and forced to go to the Lowfield Plain, I became very curious about who was in command of the army.

* * *

Halfman was quite taken aback by the movement of the black room, which had never been seen before.

He was paying attention to the situation within the continent regardless of means and methods.

Rather than blaming myself for not noticing it at an important moment when the power of the dark room over 300,000 moved, I thought ‘how?’

“Surveillance was not lacking. No, it was rather excessive. But how the heck…”

The half-man top has already crossed the trajectory of the top.

talent and money.

Two things were satisfied, and finally the support of the Principality of Soleil was supported.

I didn’t neglect monitoring with the money I earned.

when he’s in trouble

The branch manager slammed the door and entered.

“Sweet Lord! They say that the Baybon Kingdom has fallen!”

“Babybone? It can’t be!”

“This is information I got from people I trust! Undoubtedly!”

Looking at the confident expression on the branch manager’s face, the information was virtually certain.

There are only a handful of kingdoms in the vicinity of Celia that can compete with Baybon.

To that extent, the Baybon Kingdom was a deep-rooted powerhouse that had been handed down since the age of magic.

But was it captured overnight?

“Is it black?”

The branch manager nodded at Hafman’s question.

“yes. Allied forces did not move. It seems that the black room defeated it single-handedly.”

“Lord Taesangdan… no, you must already know.”

He was at Baybone.

Even so, the fact that Baybon couldn’t be prevented from falling must mean that the Black Room put a lot of pressure on it.

“Tell the fact to the Goblin Queen of the Principality and seek cooperation!”

“yes! I’ll let my allies know too!”

“If possible, bring in troops as well! Now is not the time for your land to be mine!”

Ugh-!

Harpman bit his nails.

Virtually, Baybon disappeared.

Let alone troops, nothing could be expected, so it was good to see that the only allies near Celia were Gleiman and Devon.

‘Serious. Materials that used to go through Baybon can no longer be used as Celia’s trade routes.’

Baybon’s demise is not something that should be dismissed as just Baybon’s work.

The collapse of the upper guilds and upper guilds that used trade routes would give a big blow to the situation.

He had already sent letters to Lessian and Leybon Kingdoms.

You can expect their support in case of emergency, but right now you will have no choice but to go through with your own hands.

Inside the office where gold coins are piled up.

Halfman tapped the desk in an unprecedented distraction.

* * *

By the time Lei and Teng Yue were running along the water’s edge.

Gunther found out that Noksadae had been wiped out and that the king had already fled.

“Follow me. I wouldn’t have gone far yet. Turn your forces to block Celia’s trade routes and set up ambushes in the forest. If even one is caught, that is the way the king escaped.”

“Johnny.”

As the men in black prostrated themselves and left, the sword in Gunther’s waist trembled.

At the end of the first Noksa-dan’s achievements, he was given the title of ‘dae’ by Lee Jwa and barely became Noksa-dae.

Since they were only in charge of dangerous missions, their skills improved, and they were able to raise their level by receiving swordsmanship and mana vision in the room again.

That’s just fifteen years.

Gunther was indignant at the law against having affection and the fact that the subordinates he had carefully raised were slaughtered.

He broke a handful of weeds under his feet.

Unknown blue-green grass.

Growing even when stepped on, it was very similar to Noksadae he knew.

Gunther didn’t even leave the body behind, and put the grass he had broken on the ground where his men had closed their eyes.

“Don’t worry. I will tear your skin and draw your blood to release your wishes. You’ve worked hard so far.”

He touched the soil for a moment and then got up.

waving a black cloak.

Gunther headed for the Lawfield plains.

The demise of Baybone made the surroundings riot.

It was not well known to the public yet, but through Hafman’s contact network, the kingdoms that could be called allies, including the Lessian Empire and Glaman Devon, were able to hear about it first.

What is currently known is that Heukbang has 300,000 troops and that it has captured Baybon and is moving in earnest with the allied forces.

The kingdoms that were concentrating on their internal affairs literally fell on fire.

There are no troops capable of fighting.

However, since he did not put much effort into diplomacy, there was no way to stop the Black Bang and the coalition from attacking.

Hafman took into account the will of those kings first and moved.

Soleil Principality and Hafman Merchant’s name suggested an alliance, so the kingdoms that were driven to a dead end had no other option.

At most, it was a small force of a few thousand men, but Hafmann did not look down on it.

As they pledged to share information as well as procurement of war supplies and funds, the top ranks are in fact falling behind.

Inside the office at the upper level, which is busy every day.

The branch manager seemed concerned.

“Is it really okay to spread it out like this? There is nothing left.”

Halfman worked all day, forgetting his only hobby, counting money.

“Branch manager, if everything goes bankrupt, you won’t have money or anything. Shouldn’t we live first?”

“That’s true, too, but with so many kingdoms forming alliances, how can the Black Army win easily?”

Actually, that statement is correct.

However, I don’t think the black room could have expected this much.

Perhaps, considering the number of cases, they foretold their victory, so they must have raised a large army and occupied Baybon.

“Do as you say. Even if the corps perishes, it can be raised again, but if the world perishes, isn’t it meaningless?”

“…All right.”

The branch manager left the office.

management of allies.

From the circulation of funds to the procurement of goods.

In the war, the Hafman Upper House continued to be busier than ever as it had to take on work alone that one upper class could not do.
