Chapter 79 – Authenticity (9)

‘This is enough.’

You cannot intervene directly, but there are many ways to help. You can take out the insecticide that has accumulated dust from the veranda right away and spray it.

However, in the presence of the elves, I didn’t have to do anything more than necessary, and instead started the Battlebot, which had been sleeping for quite some time even after replacing the batteries.

Until now, the size of the rift was at most 2 cm, so it was impossible to move to another area. I thought I could put in the Battlebot if I maneuvered it well and squeezed it in.

“—!”

In the meantime, the elves lifted their bows and sniped at the monster moths flying over the air-raid shelter.

Looks surprised, but calm. In the first place, they will not be able to ignore the experience they have accumulated so far. Even Serenian had already had experience fighting monster mosquitoes and flying enemies.

‘Being stronger.’

I could understand why Serenian went to fight a being called a hero with a grim face.

Thunderbolts that crackled in the flower pots spewed toward the sky like lightning strikes in reverse, and in an instant roasted several monster moths alive.

Since then, Serenian leaped to the ground avoiding the enemy’s paws that were trying to grab him. The elves didn’t get pushed back even when they got close.

The arrows they shoot are no longer crudely carved out of wood, and the armor they are wearing is proper armor.

The Battlebot pushed all the larvae crawling on the ground, and the flying moths that tried to attack them all were shot down and crashed to the ground at about the same time.

It was a sudden battle, but none of the elves died. Caught by a moth and dragged into the air, only one man who fell was all he could do, grunting and holding on to his arm as if injured.

While the majority, including Serenian, were still holding weapons and guarding the front, one was rushing to the bonsai pot to call for help.

‘It won’t be the end.’

Of course, with the experience so far, both they and I knew that this raid was not the end. The dungeon was in the form of a portal rather than a tunnel, and I wasn’t even sure if it was a dungeon or not yet.

“Isn’t it okay to go?”

I put down the Battlebot’s controller and picked up the drone’s controller again.

It was enough when I saw it myself.

From noble mtl dot com

“–!”

Ignoring Serenian’s cry, I moved the drone and charged into the portal. Cracks in the ominous shimmering space gradually approaching the screen.

The drone that passed through there at once went into another world.

“Chew…”

And I was nervous for no reason and was horrified to see the scene unfolding on the screen. I inadvertently got goosebumps and almost dropped the controller.

Connected through a portal, this place was literally a nest of moths. Instead of bats, the main inhabitants of the cave, there are numerous human-sized moths clinging to the walls and ceilings.

On the floor, caterpillars and pupae were gathering and wriggling.

‘What the heck are these guys really like?’

No matter what they say, the main enemy of the elves is this legion of demonized bugs that keep appearing.

The strains become stronger and more bizarre, as if they grow as the World Tree grows.

Long ago, in the mythology of the elves, just like the story of their ancestors driving out terrible enemies and cultivating a great forest, the elves of Eden had to fight monster bugs to create the paradise they wanted.

I’d rather help them pour down into the pots, but if they appear without me, there’s no way I can help them.

I didn’t dare to investigate further, so I hurriedly pulled out before the drones attacked and approached Serenian. Her face was pale across the screen, but her eyes did not waver.

After that, I moved the drone and danced in front of her. It meant there were dangerous guys ahead.

“—.”

She nodded her head as if she understood that.

As expected, the elves didn’t force themselves to approach the portal. In addition, those who urgently came to support were armed and wary of the portal and only made a defensive line.

‘I can’t just throw away the land itself.’

Even though it was dangerous with enemies in front of them, it seemed that the elves were going to use this land right away. Just as a barrier was once put up at the entrance, but after the fairy ants completely took over the burrow, the barrier was demolished.

However, it would be difficult to push the residents to live in a place where monsters might pop out at any moment.

Besides, those monsters weren’t the ones that could be stopped by erecting barriers like they are now. If so, how will the elves in the pot overcome it?

“For now, it’s best to stay vigilant and clean the inside as soon as possible.”

“But Ren didn’t show me how many enemies there were inside. It will be a bit difficult to attack first unless the work of training these newcomers as warriors is finished.”

“Fairy ants will help.”

“But ants can’t deal with flying creatures…”

Seunghyun’s prediction was correct. Elves had to struggle to find their own way.

Convened by Serenian, now slowly becoming a governing body as the number of elves increases and the size of society itself grows, the council convened by Serenian continues to discuss how to colonize new lands while ensuring the safety of its inhabitants. Discussed

I had to decide ASAP. Even at this moment, Leon and others were receiving support from the military and moving non-stop at the timing of the enemy’s power loss, continuing to send migrants.

“It seems to me that the most realistic option would be to keep the troops stationed until they can afford it. Only then will the people who have to live there feel safe.”

“Uh, actually, that might not be enough.”

Serenian opened his mouth. The best way she thought of it was, after all, that she had an army stationed by her side that could contain the enemies if they came.

But when she said that, she gave her opinion by sneaking up on Garmin, who was acting as a general who actually led the army.

“If that is not enough, I will stay there too.”

“Yes? That, it is.”

She added herself to refute her opinion that her army alone might not be enough. Currently the strongest elf in this place. And a representative

No matter how insensitive the elves are to her authority, at least they know how important she is as the being who rules the sky blesses them directly.

In other words, her existence means heaven is watching them.

If such Serenian stayed by their side, not in a safe, strong, and mysterious house that the sky god gave her, there would be nothing that would make her feel as safe.

“I bet no one will doubt it.”

“If there are divine punishments from the sky, even if they all rain down…”

Executives who participated in the meeting also affirmed her words.

‘But if we continue to fight attrition, our allies’ losses will pile up. There is an underground shelter, but I can’t let my people live there without sunlight.’

However, Serenian’s face was dark even after the meeting was over. Because he knew this wasn’t his perfect plan, even though it was decided in his own way.

“Is the time available now?”

So she picked up the walkie-talkie. In fact, she thought she would listen to a being completely different from hers, another unofficial official of the Eden Central Council, of whom very few people knew of its existence.

“After listening to everything, it’s obviously not perfect. If you set the fight as the default, there will always be a variable. Because that is the variable of battle.”

“We need some time. We plan to train 200 of these newcomers to act as warriors, but we don’t have enough weapons or equipment to arm them yet.”

“Time.”

Seunghyun’s eyes twinkled as if he was interested in hearing her words.

The elves of Eden were obviously different from the existing elves. The overall atmosphere was biased towards military force as they had to survive in a harsh environment infested with enemies both inside and outside.

I was a bit taken aback by her statement that she would make the majority of the villagers into warriors who could fight regardless of age or gender.

If that plan is completed, Eden will become a mad group with hundreds of warriors capable of fighting against a group of terrible monsters.

This is possible because most activities, including food production, can be replaced with the world tree and the power of divine spirits. However, Serenian was not aware of how shocking this plan was.

“In the end, most importantly, we need a new kind of barrier to protect ourselves from flying enemies. Maybe God knows the answer. However, in that case, we may need your consent.”

After thinking for a while, he smiled as if he knew something.

Surprised by that reaction, Serenian’s eyes widened. In what way will the spirits of the sky help them this time?

“There is no reason for us to reject His grace. You have to accept the inconvenience.”

“Then go back and wait. It probably won’t take too long.”

He sent her away, giving her a strange smile.

‘I think two will be enough with the largest glass.’

After leaving the herb pot, Seung-hyeon, still smiling, took his coat and headed to a private cafe right near the house that he used often.
