Episode 132. Small Five Dragon
Puseok.
Then, what shattered with a loud sound…
Surprisingly, it was the wooden supports!
Looking closely, I saw that the supports were precariously supporting the cave wall.
Han Ibi said in confusion.
“Why is there a wooden stand here?”
But there was no time to talk.
Soon, the area near the cave entrance began to collapse along with a rumbling sound.
Maeng Gap-son quickly picked up thick wooden sticks and started climbing the slippery cave wall.
“I will take care of the rest, so you just have to tell the bridgeheads that the cave suddenly collapsed when they come to rescue us. “Don’t say anything else.”
Then Han Ibi added.
“Now that I think about it, Mr. Heo was injured after being buried by a falling rock. “It was an unfortunate accident.”
Han Ibi was moving Heo Son Dam to the area where the entrance collapsed and stones fell down.
Maeng Gap-son, who was climbing the wall, glanced back and said.
“Giggles. This guy is smarter than I thought. See you later. Absolutely not! Don’t forget. Otherwise, it will be a pain in the ass.”
* * *
There was a rumor going around in the salt society.
‘Zhonglimae brings disaster.’
‘There is nothing left where he passed away.’
‘Zhonglimae is the King of Destruction.’
The students were so excited, even though they didn’t show it on the outside.
Of course, there will be quite a bit of envy and jealousy mixed in.
And it was also because of the scenery that unfolded right in front of me.
“This association is disappointed in you all.”
Silence enveloped the crowd.
“It’s not enough! “It’s not enough!”
The old man shouted, banging on the platform.
It was Jang Jang-ryeon, the owner of the salt society.
“These positions are not important. What really matters is skill. You guys sucked. “It means you don’t have enough skills!”
The audience was quiet.
You can almost hear the sound of drool falling.
The officer said.
“Nevertheless, granting this position is because a promise was made in advance. But damn it!”
He said, slamming the podium once again.
“If I had my way, I would have disqualified them all and kicked them out. So…”
Officer Jang Ryeon narrowed his eyes and continued.
“You will have to continue to devote yourself to training. Training is the only thing that can guarantee your life in this rugged river. Did you understand?”
“yes!”
The answers from the students, who were in full military spirit, rang out.
The officer said.
“Just look at what sacrifices our Murim Alliance has made to raise minnows like you.”
He pointed to Danghoyeon, one of the bridgeheads standing at the front, looking at the students.
“The party leader lost his life-giving arm. Do you understand? I didn’t fight against the evil demonic cult, nor did I carry out a mission that risked my life. Besides…”
Jang Jang-ryeon took a deep sigh and continued speaking.
“…What about Heo Bridge Headquarters, which suffered an unexpected accident? Due to a natural disaster that occurred during the test, he has not yet regained consciousness. All of this…”
Officer Jang Ryeon glanced at the students lined up and continued.
“…It happened while I was training you guys. So, you must remember this sacrifice and be reborn as true workers of the Murim Alliance. Do you understand?”
“yes. All right.”
After the terrible moment of the principal’s lecture, the appointment ceremony for Soohae-ryong, which everyone had been waiting for, was finally held.
Of course, the fault was the responsibility of a few, but…
the officers said.
“The Yellow Dragon of the Little Five Dragons….”
There was extreme tension in the audience.
“…This is the Dangbaekmun of the Sacheondangmun, which received the highest evaluation in the comprehensive ranking.”
Dangbaekmun clenched his fists.
– Yellow dragon (黃龍): The yellow dragon at the Dangbaekmun Gate of the Four Heavenly Gates
protects the center and is a symbol of a dignified monarch.
The officer said.
“Please allow those who have been called to come forward.”
At that time, Gilson Rok, who was a few rooms away from Han Ibi, muttered.
“What is this? “What did he do well?”
At that time, Zhuge Yan of the Zhuge family next to him spoke in a low voice.
“Gil Sohyeop. Be careful what you say. Looks like you haven’t heard it yet. There was talk that the damage suffered by Sichuan Tangmun during this training was beyond imagination, so the Yellow Dragon was awarded as a consolation prize.”
It’s not that it wasn’t, but the students didn’t look very surprised.
Gilson Rock frowned.
“Is there such a thing?”
At that time, I heard the officer speaking.
“The position of Blue Dragon (Blue Dragon) is… the Zhonglimae of the Qingcheng Sect, who took the honors of the most students in the final exam.”
Then I heard whispering here and there.
“No, even if you cause an accident like that, they give you a blue dragon?”
“I heard that while trying to save him, Heo Son-dam got into an accident and fell unconscious…” “
And he said he was fine, even though he broke a few fingers.”
“So, he is the King of Destruction…”
Anyway, Han Ibi walked up to the podium, bouncing those stories out of her ears.
No matter what the content is, didn’t he eventually attain the status of one of the Five Demon Dragons?
– Blue Dragon (Blue Dragon): Blue
Dragon, the Zhonglimae of the Blue Star Sect, protects the East and rules over rain, wind, clouds, and thunder.
It was then.
Tiring.
[Main Quest Achievement: I achieved excellent results in the Flame Society process and was awarded the title of Blue Dragon, a symbol of bravery, among the Five Demon Dragons.] [Reward 1: The advice function of the Tactical Strategy item has been activated.] [
Now
. You can talk to the DB of Tactical Strategy Tenacity from now on.]
[Reward 2: All martial arts levels increase by 1 level.]
[Reward 3: Strength +25, Strength +20, Dexterity +20, Wisdom +15, Charisma +10, Reputation +100 ]
Wow!
Han Ibi’s eyes opened brightly.
Reputation… because reputation soared in an instant.
This could be said to be the best reward for Han Ibi.
How annoying he had been because of his reputation as a bankrupt…
Anyway, even after that, he continued to be given the title of Little Five Dragon.
– Baekryong (White Dragon): The white
dragon of the Huashan faction protects the West and is also a symbol of ‘speed’.
– Shaolin Temple’s Hyejeong
Black Dragon protects the North and is believed to have ‘water nature’.
– Red Dragon (赤龍):
The Red Dragon of the Shaman faction protects the southern region and has the ‘nature of fire’.
Yes.
The honorable title of Sowopaeryong, selected by the Murim Alliance, was bestowed upon these five young men.
At the same time, a mumbling sound was heard.
The majority of the tone is dissatisfied.
“what. “It’s the first time in 10 years that I’ve been selected, and this time it’s no different.”
“Yes… Shaolin shaman volcanoes take turns eating for a day or two.”
“Why on earth do you not disclose the selection criteria transparently?”
It was then.
Bang bang bang.
The officer ryeon was hitting the podium again, attracting attention.
“Now, since we are all powerful and wealthy, we will put aside the cumbersome pretentiousness. “It’s over now.”
Then the students looked at each other in confusion.
The officers shouted even louder.
“There is no banquet or anything like that. Since the cost of food is too expensive, the students who did not receive the name of Little Five Dragons will return immediately tomorrow morning. Do you understand?”
“yes. All right.”
Although it felt truly outrageous, the students had no choice but to answer loudly.
* * *
The atmosphere was truly serious yet extremely awkward.
This is because Jong Li-hyuk’s expression was so gloomy.
It was so serious that even Yeo Nan-ju and So Eun-ri noticed it.
Han Ibi felt a little sorry.
It was probably the biggest frustration that Jong Li-hyuk experienced in his life.
The heartless Yeo Nan-ju chattered carelessly.
“Jongli Sasuk.”
As soon as he was given the title of Blue Dragon, he was immediately promoted to the status of Sasuk.
“Please try to raise the honor of our Qingcheng faction. Now stop thinking. Ho ho ho.”
Surprisingly, she seemed happy to be back with Jong Ri-hyuk, whom she admired.
‘Tsk tsk tsk.’
Han Yi-bi clicked her tongue and spoke to So Eun-ri.
“Do you have anything to tell me?”
So Eun-ri said.
“I’ll see you when I come back safely.”
As expected, it is extremely plain. To the point of being dull.
Han Yi-bi turned her gaze and this time spoke to Jong Li-hyuk.
“brother.”
“When you have eyes to see, be careful what you call.”
“Yes…”
You must have been very shocked. Well, anyway…
“Are you going to return to Qingcheng Mountain right away?”
“I do not know.”
Of course it is.
According to the original story, Jong Ri-hyuk takes advantage of Kang-ho’s escape to track down the culprit behind the destruction.
The real adventure and adventure begins from there.
Ebi Han said.
“I’ll finish it quickly and follow you.”
Jong Lihyuk just nodded lightly.
He seemed like he wanted to get out of this frustrating situation quickly.
Han Yi-bi said to Yeo Nan-ju.
“Now go ahead. “I’ll just go in now.”
“is it so. Sasuk. See you later then.”
Han Ibi came to the entrance of Hyeonseogak to see off the group and sent them off.
Originally, I should have followed them somehow, but…
‘Damn it. Well, what will happen? When did it ever go as planned?….’
It was impossible to ignore the official schedule as it had even received the name of Blue Dragon, the flower of the Murim Alliance.
He said goodbye to Hyeon Gil Son-rok, whom he had become very attached to, as well as Wang Cheong-rin, Baek Mi-hu, and Moon Won-bi.
Although Wang Qinglin had been bickering so much, it was paradoxical that she was the only one who greeted him with tears in her eyes at the last moment.
* * *
All of her roommates had left and Hanibi was sleeping alone in the dorm.
It’s truly been a long time since I’ve had a good night’s sleep.
However, there was a being who woke up that precious sleep, and it was Maeng Gap-son of the Murim Alliance.
Han Ibi, who suddenly stood up in a state of alert, recognized the other person as Maeng Gap-son and yawned profusely again.
“What are you doing at this time of night?”
“What’s going on? joy. It will rot. Do you have any idea how hard it was for me to clean up after that?”
No, why is it my fault?…
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Maeng Gap-son said.
“There are so many things I want to ask you, but I don’t have time, so I’ll ask the most important thing first. “As for the books… are you really throwing them away?”
Oh my… is that the story again?
“you’re right. “I threw it off the cliff.”
Maeng Gap-son nodded and said.
“If it is fate, then it must be fate… Perhaps it would be better for it to disappear from the world.”
Han Ibi asked while tilting her head.
“No, but… why are so many people interested in that book?”
Then Maeng Gap-son shook his head and said.
“I do not know either. “I just do what I’m told.”
“No, I heard he is a high-ranking person in the Murim Alliance….”
“Because there is a heaven outside of heaven.”
Han Ibi said with meaningful eyes.
“The person who ordered it is the Son of Heaven?”
“What nonsense?”
However, Han Yi-bi clearly saw Maeng Gap-son’s eyes shaking slightly.
“I’m just saying this. If you’ve finished what you want to say, I’ll just go to sleep. “I heard that we need to have an audience with the Murim Lord tomorrow and gather at the Hwasan Sect.”
Maeng Gap-son said.
“that’s right. “I will lead you, so sleep well.”
Then it disappeared out the window in an instant.
Truly unrivaled light attack skills.
Han Ibi thought.
“There are all kinds of people looking for tactical strategies here and there… I shouldn’t even dream of saying that I have one.”
* * *
Han Yi-bi and other small-scale soldiers arrived at Cheonsu-gwan under the leadership of Maeng Gap-son.
They had an audience with the Murim lord.
But…
the Murim Lord was too busy.
There were many seals to be stamped and many meetings to be chaired.
So I could only say a light greeting.
The Little Dragons, who thought they were quite amazing, were somewhat disappointed.
Except for Han Ibi, whom I met beforehand.
On the way out of Cheonsu-gwan, Tang Baek-mun asked Maeng Gap-son.
“Are we going to the volcano group now?”
Maeng Gap-son nodded.
“Yes. “He took on a senior position in the Hwasan faction.”
The volcano sect’s bladder room asked in surprise.
“Our volcano?”
Maeng Gap-son nodded silently.
Then Han Ibi asked.
“What on earth does this term mean? “Can’t you tell me by now?”
Maeng Gap-son said.
“It’s a meeting.”
“A meeting?”
“Yes. In the Volcanic Sect, you will encounter the Five Dragons of the Murim Alliance, who can be said to be the best masters and allies of the Murim Alliance.”
