Chapter 483 The Monster Called a 'Masterpiece'
Hearing the man named Fang Yi casually say...

The phrase "Items that are remarkably effective against the 'Woman of the Forest'" is mentioned.

Looking at the man's handsome face, somewhat indistinct in the shadows of the camp.

And the loose change in my hand.

Paul lowered his head humbly.

Pointing to the alchemical bomb on the cart behind the man.

I asked that question without thinking.

"So these are..."

Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Fang Yi's very indifferent reply.

"These are the bombs that need to be buried in the corresponding areas of the camp."

"A bomb that can specifically target and kill those monsters."

Hearing the man's reply.

Bohr cleverly concealed his somewhat unpleasant expression in the shadows.

"That won't do. I have to ensure that sir's plan to destroy the camp goes ahead."

We need to find out more about these things first.

After having a clear plan in mind.

Bohr then pointed to a few people dressed in armor, standing straight in the camp.

The guards, their eyes wide open, stared into the darkness outside the camp as they performed their duties.

He expressed his doubts in a more humble tone.

"Why not look for those guards?"
"If other mercenaries are unaware of the bomb's location after it's planted..."

Before he could finish speaking...

Fang Yi's face immediately showed visible impatience.

"This is not something you need to care about or know."

The man first waved the coins in his hand.

Pointing to the numerous spherical bombs on the cart.

The command was given.

"Find a few mercenaries to do the digging work."

"There's a shovel on the truck, and I don't want to get my hands dirty."

"Burying one will get you forty [old gold coins], the money comes from the outpost."

"But it must be done according to the requirements; the specific specifications and requirements are roughly as follows."

After saying a few words, he seemed rooted to the spot, not moving an inch.

Paul was quite 'hesitant' about his orders.

Fang Yi frowned slightly.

"Not enough?"
"But this job is not difficult."

"It's like a windfall."

"But as for the reason behind it, I can't tell you just to be on the safe side, unless..."

As he spoke, Fang Yi smiled and patted the money pouch at his waist.

It is well known that spies and traitors are the easiest places to make money.

As long as you can provide them with the information they care about.

They are absolutely not stingy.

He was also planning to extort another sum from the other party.

Make the other party feel at ease to receive this information.
-
Paul gritted his teeth and decisively handed over a money pouch.

"200 [Old Gold Coins], please."

Fang Yi took the money bag and walked up to the man.

He lowered his voice a few decibels.

"Captain Zhalan didn't seek help from the guards who were on duty, but instead went to the mercenaries."

"Naturally, it's because these funds should be considered 'reasonable expenditures' for the camp renovation."

Looking at Bohr, who was getting a little anxious because of his 'off-topic'.

Fang Yi, however, began to chat leisurely.

“Deputy Captain Zhalan will take the lion’s share, and I’ll take my portion.”

"As for you, if you have the ability to lower their profits, then naturally..."

Halfway through the sentence.

Fang Yi then stopped speaking before he could finish.

They successfully executed this feint.

Listening to Fang Yi's reply, which didn't get to the point.

Upon confirming the authenticity of the intelligence, Bohr became extremely anxious.

He pulled out another bag of coins.

"800, I want to know those things."

Knowing that the time was right, Fang Yi grabbed the money bag.

"It is said that it can distinguish whether the person stepping on it is a monster or a human!"
"Of course, I don't understand alchemy either."

"That's what Zhalan said anyway."

As he spoke, Fang Yi reached out his hand to the man again.

"Of course, I'm only taking these risks because of your recent generosity. Tell me..."

Bohr looked at the Prometheus pendant on the man's waist.

He then smiled.

He tactfully handed over a scroll.

"Skill Scrolls"

"When mentally focused, one can attach mental energy to accelerate and correct the trajectory of bullets for precise shooting."

"Have you learned this skill?"

Fang Yi shook his head slightly upon seeing this.

After casting a glance at the skill scroll in his hand as feedback.

Bohr's smile was even wider.

"It seems this scroll has been waiting for your arrival."

"This skill scroll is temporarily unusable because it has already been bound to someone else."

"Since the person you are binding with has died, you need to go to the guild."

"Only staff skilled in precise manipulation can unbind this item by spending 1000 [Old Gold Coins]."

Fang Yi, who possessed the ability to discern that this statement was true, was able to distinguish it as a matter of substitution and spiritual transfer.

Grab this one, which is blessed by [Zero-Time Calculation - Voiced Sound].

Like those coins, they were clearly accompanied by a curse.

We should be able to test the skill scroll with the [Punishment Strike] curse removal effect soon.

He revealed gleaming teeth.

"This 'gift' is nice."

"I remember you."

Bohr lowered his head.

He concealed the slight upturn of his lips, which hinted at a smile.

"This is what you deserve, being blessed by luck."

"I'll look for it right away."

Before Bohr could finish speaking, he was interrupted by rough voices from the camp.

"You dare disobey my orders?"
"Who gave you the courage?"

Indeed, even in plate armor, he still looked quite pot-bellied.

Surrounded by a large group of people, Zhalan was clearly ready for battle.

And the camp's second-in-command, who was standing in front trying to dissuade him and was being questioned by him.

A priest with a mercenary rank of [lv4].

Yar.
-
After Zalan's voice drew the attention of most of the mercenaries who were also on guard duty in the camp...

Dressed in a gray robe, Yar calmly and slowly delivered his analysis.

"Deputy Captain Zhalan, as the person in charge of the stronghold, you should..."

Hearing these words.

Zhalan's wrinkles deepened instantly.

At the same time, he took a big step.

With an aggressive air, it charged towards the pastor.

"Are you going to disobey orders?"

Yar, not to be outdone, took a step forward.

"This is a reasonable and well-intentioned suggestion!"

Hearing these words.

Zhalan snorted coldly.

He shoved the priest in front of him aside.

He drew his longsword from his waist and pointed it at the man named Yar.

"Since it's a suggestion, there's a possibility it won't be adopted!"
"With the help of the hunting dogs brought by the dog trainer, I'm about to leave the camp and chase after that monster!!"
"Are you going to disobey the orders of the outpost commander?"

Looking at the aggressive Zhalan.

"I said through gritted teeth."

"Vice Captain Zhalan, do this."

You'll regret this!
"What if there's a monster tide like the one a few days ago?"

Hearing these words.

Zhalan disdainfully sheathed his longsword.

“Yar, I am the one who owns this camp.”

"The person in charge of this outpost."

He walked past the trembling, furious pastor.

Zhalan glanced back at the dog trainer leading the hunting dogs behind him.

And several squads of swordsmen in armor, leading horses and holding torches high.

"I took several teams with me."

"But didn't I leave some people for you?"
"They've also set up some traps, so what trouble could possibly arise in this camp?"

As he spoke, Zhalan looked towards Fang Yi from afar.

He added a sentence with a pointed implication.

"Hold on here and wait for me to come back!" With that, he waved his hand.

He yelled, "Let's go!"

He then opened the wooden camp gate and walked out of the camp surrounded by wooden walls.

He led his group away.

Only those who couldn't stop repeating the year remained.

"Idiot! I've had enough of this idiot."

"I will make Lord Woyin replace this idiot!"

But he secretly glanced at Fang Yi's Yar.

And the mercenaries who looked at each other in bewilderment after watching the play.

Fang Yi shrugged.

Then he patted Paul on the shoulder.

"The farce is over."

"Get to work, and be quick about it."

Hearing the man's reply.

Paul lowered his head humbly.

"The farce is indeed over."

"I'll go right away."

After saying that, he pushed the cart and turned to leave.
-
Watching Bohr walk away.

Vaughn slowly walked up to the man.

whispered.

"Captain, those things have been arranged."

Then, he said something insincerely.

"The conflict between the priest and the vice-captain seemed a bit unnatural."

Are they there?

Draw the [Kiriichimonji] and place it on the [Precision Shot] skill scroll.

Gradually, we draw upon the positive energy of the [Reversal Technique - Enhancement].

Fang Yi, who had just exorcised the curse and practiced and mastered [Punishment Strike], glanced at Vaughn in surprise.

Are you not stupid?

He could see the look in Fang Yi's eyes.

Vaughn then made a gesture to keep quiet, and then awkwardly scratched his head.

“I just have some ‘experience,’ Captain.”

It's obvious that even the most skilled veteran actors...

Even Vaughn, who 'acted out' his role as the boss driving under the influence and you had to stop his car, is no match for him.

Sensing the presence of several stealthy monsters lurking around the camp, secretly observing it.

Fang Yi verbally expressed his approval.

"Your judgment is correct, but it has nothing to do with you."

"Remember to put on your armor first."

"In these last few minutes, I'll tell you how to use [Traces]."

"Of course, that will have to wait until I finish the exorcism work at hand."

When Vaughn heard Professor Fang Yi's promise, his eyes lit up.

But looking at the yellow halo on Fang Yi's longsword.

They offered very kind advice.

"Captain, if we need to exorcise the curse..."

"Should we look for that Sona, or that Pastor Yar?"

"You're probably..."

Seeing that they remained unmoved under his [punishment strike].

Unlike the curse on the coin that Zaran forced out with [Punishment Strike], this skill scroll emitted black smoke.

Upon hearing the swordsman's advice, Fang Yi shook his head and did not reply immediately.

They only brought out the [Holy Water - Thick Type].

I applied a little bit of a sticky yellow liquid to the Kiriichimonji.

Again, follow the knowledge of [punishment and strike].

They sensed and manipulated the energy on the blade.

He then placed the longsword on the skill scroll.

[Punishment and crackdown]

An unprecedented yellow halo appeared on the longsword.

A skill scroll placed on a longsword.

A sense of weakness suddenly arose, and it began to 'escape' from the scroll.

Then the dagger that the man had pulled out was easily absorbed into it, turning into the thick black smoke of the [Weakness Curse].

Draw a magic circle.

He took out 1000 old gold coins and placed them inside.

At the cost of money turning to ashes, the soul on the skill scroll was easily transferred away using [Substitute Spirit].

Fang Yi obtained the skill [Precision Shot] by crushing the skill scroll.

He then stared at Vaughn, who was dumbfounded and speechless.

I added a sentence.

There's no need for that.

"Skills need to be practiced, and growth comes from solving problems when facing difficulties!"

"Come on, next up is training [Tracking]."

Fang Yi was preparing to test the forced upgrade effect of the "Diligent Learning and Improvement" skill, specifically the "cramming" method of imparting knowledge to others to quickly improve their skill level.

Then, reveal to the other party that you can 'lend' your skills to others.

If feasible.

He planned to give Miss Ganlu Temple a special training session on her boxing techniques later.

A few minutes later, in an open area of ​​the camp.

"Enter the world of 'shadow' and then suddenly reveal yourself to attack."

"That's the principle behind 'stealth'."

"However, [Stealth] is not an invincible state. As long as you detect a fluctuation and disrupt the opponent with an attack, you can..."

As he spoke, Fang Yi drew the Prometheus sword from his waist.

He casually aimed at the woods outside the camp.

"boom!"

【Precision Shooting】

The bright yellow bullet, flashing white light, was launched.

The warhead had just left a trail of intense fire in the air.

It ruthlessly pierced through a small pigman who was crouching and heading towards the camp, holding a shield in one hand and a hook in the other.

It stirred up a few flying debris, a mixture of entrails and broken bones, which rained down on the forest.

It was the [Pigman Hook Hand (Elite)] that had entered [Stealth] mode.

The voice in his ear announced: "[Due to the enhancement effect of the [Diligent Study and Improvement] branch, the character [Vorn]'s skill [Tracking] has been improved.]"

The notification sound indicates that you have been upgraded from level 1 to level 2.

Having verified the possibility of passing on the knowledge, Fang Yi took a deep breath.

He roared towards the camp.

"Monster, prepare for battle!!!"

Before Fang Yi's roar could even echo through the camp.

They were already standing in the camp.

Yar held a staff in one hand and a mace in the other.

He swung the hammer down hard.

A blazing holy light rose from the camp.

The sound caused ripples in the air near the camp.

This exposes some of the [Pigman Hook Hands (Elite)] who are shrouded in shadow and [stealthily moving] to the view.
The guards standing atop the camp sentry post raised their muskets in unison.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The bright yellow bullets intertwined to form an impenetrable line of fire.

It struck the small monster wielding the wooden shield with pinpoint accuracy.

Although most of the monsters swayed slightly, they continued running forward as if nothing had happened.

They attempted to climb the wooden wall and rush into the camp.

But under the intense firepower of the guards positioned high above them...

This idea is clearly somewhat unrealistic.

These monsters staggered a few times before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.

But Yar, standing in the camp, did not let his guard down.

Instead, it gave a new command.

"Flare!"

As soon as the words were spoken, several flares that briefly turned the night sky into daylight rose into the air.

In the distant forest, there was a rather large path.

The human-shaped figure, whose form was only partially covered by trees up to its waist, was also revealed.

He was carrying a giant log that was as thick as three people could hug, and his body was emanating miasma.

The Plague Giant, covered in pustules, slowly made its way towards the camp.

Yar, in the camp, looked at the monster's appearance.

His pupils contracted sharply, and his hand holding the mace began to tremble.

"A [Champion-level] monster?"

"But it seems so."

"No, it's even stronger than [Champion Level]!"

"It's the latest masterpiece of the [Prophet]!"

next moment.

Several cold female voices echoed through the forest, answering Yar's question.

It was a group of "Wicked Women of the Forest" who arrived together.
