A few hours ago...

The firefly constellation, Camille, finally succeeded in making the antidote. However, the most important thing was to experiment with it. It couldn’t be used if it hadn’t been tested. Park Muyeol, who was training in the garden with Inumusiki, caught Camille’s eyes.

“......”

A short time later, Park Muyeol became the experimental body and stared at the zombie in front of him with a blank expression.

“Grrruk.Clack clack!”

A zombie with chains around his arms and legs were showing his teeth to Park Muyeol and trying to attack. Park Muyeol frowned as he read the message floating over the zombie’s head.

[※ Be careful! If bitten, you will turn into a zombie and play as a zombie for a period of time. If you can’t free yourself from the zombie transformation after a certain period of time, then your character will be deleted.]

‘This is it.’ Park Muyeol folded his arms and frowned. A single defeat meant it was over. However, Camille calmly offered a potion like she didn’t know Park Muyeol’s thoughts.

[Please take it.]

“Can you really cure a zombie with this?”

[Yes.]

“Then why are you giving me the antidote, not the zombies? Do I have to be bitten? Such an adventure...”

[It isn’t like that, so try it. You’ll know once you take it.]

“Cough.”

Park Muyeol was still displeased, but he swallowed Camille’s antidote in an instant. A short time passed...

“Hmm?”

An aura like Camille’s fireflies started to rise from Park Muyeol’s body and flew in all directions.

“This...”

Park Muyeol stared at the fireflies with surprise. The fireflies clung to the zombie and in an instant, it erased the ugly appearance and started to restore the human appearance. The zombie finally completely became a human.

“T-This place?

[Fortunately, it works. I will immediately tell the leader that I have completed the antidote. I’m sure there will be a fight soon.]

Camille scattered and disappeared with these words. All that remained was Park Muyeol and the unknown male NPC who had been restored to a human. The surprising thing was that the same firefly energy was coming from the man’s body.

“Where is this place? Why am I chained up here? Additionally, what is coming from my body...?”

“......”

Park Muyeol cut off the chains binding the man with his wooden sword. Park Muyeol spoke to the man who was rubbing his wrists, “I will gradually explain what is going on. Follow me.”

An hour later, the core powers of Murim gathered at the front gate.

Their hands were holding the antidote potions Camille had given them. First, the Murim leader Namgung Yun took the antidote and then the sect leaders and members did the same. Soon, the energy of detoxification overflowed from their bodies like fireflies.

“Open the gates!”

The firmly closed gates slowly started to open at Namgung Yun’s shout. Everyone’s hearts pounded. It was the first time they opened the gates since the zombie disaster struck. Finally, for the first time, the gates were wide open. The first one to run out was Park Muyeol. The moment they were opened, the zombies sensed movement and rushed forward.

“Kuwoooook!”

“Uweeeek!”

“Uweeeek!”

However, many of the zombies were unable to reach Park Muyeol and knelt down on the ground. Some of them returned to humans, while those who already suffered a lot of injuries that were difficult to recover returned to being ordinary corpses. The sect members saw this and shouted.

“I-It is real! The antidote works!”

“Good. We can’t lose. Let’s go!”

“All disciples of Huanshan, follow me!”

Waaaah!

The shouts became a signal and those who drank the antidote rushed toward the zombies. There was no need to grab a weapon and kill. The zombies returned to human form as they were approached. The even more frightening thing was that those who returned to being human also showed the effects of the antidote.

[As expected of Camille. You are amazing.]

[You are flattering me.]

Namgung Yun heard Inumusiki’s words and opened his mouth, “I’m sorry, but there is no time for this. We have to finish it quickly. The soldiers need to be scattered all over the East Continent with the antidote, but our core force has to kill the demon king.”

[Um, you are correct.]

Inumusiki, Camille, Park Muyeol, Zhen Sulong, and the Murim people started to move quickly. Their purpose was to kill the source of evil that had made the East Continent like this. However, they were eventually forced to stop in place.

“Stop!”

The people who were moving quickly froze at Namgung Yun’s shout. In front of them was a zombie wearing familiar clothes.

“Tai Chi daoist immortal...”

At Metheus, Gorba’s orc village...

Lucifer sat on a rock with one of hand supporting his chin as he watched the burning orc village and muttered to himself, [Hrmm. It isn’t here either...]

At his feet lay the bloody orc leader, Gorba, who was barely breathing.

“Gasp.Gaasp...”

[You are still breathing? You are pretty strong.]

Lucifer showed a particularly arrogant smile as he looked at Gorba.

[Huhu. Where did the confidence of beating me go?]

“Chwiiik... You... Strong... Gorba... Admits it... Gasp...”

Gorba watched the burning village while lying down and felt his strength gradually fading. On the one hand, he was proud to have saved the young orcs. Currently, the adult orcs were out helping with the expansion of Metheus and all that remained were Gorba and the young orcs and female orcs. In order to evacuate the young orcs, he asked for a one-on-one duel like a man. Fortunately, the presence in front of him accepted it.

Gorba was able to save the young orcs and the female orcs. Just then, there was the sound of something crashing.

“......”

It was the Roasted Ten Layers Spider Legs Tower made by his friend, Jackson. Gorba hadn’t forgotten what he was taught and spread it to other orcs. It was now a culture among the orcs. Some time ago, he visited the frost orcs in the North Pole and delivered it to the orcs of other tribes. There seemed to be peace once again among the orcs.

‘However, it ends here...’

Gorba gradually felt a loss of strength. The presence in front of him was sure to kill him. It was the first time that Gorba had ever felt so helpless.

‘No, it isn’t the first time...’

Come to think of it, there was one other time. It was when he was beaten by his friend, Jackson. Jackson was really strong back then.

‘Hut.’

Gorba had a smile on his face as he greeted the incoming death. It had been a while since he met Jackson and he suddenly missed this person.

[It was pretty fun entertainment. I will ask again. Where is the autumn balancer?] Lucifer asked Gorba.

Lucifer had come to the south of the Ark Continent to find the autumn balancer. However, he couldn’t find traces of the autumn balancer anywhere. It had been a long time since the taboo had been weakened, but this could be a hindrance. Therefore, he finally came to the orc village and this situation occurred.

“...Chwiik. I don’t know.”

[Hmm. It can’t be helped. Still, I didn’t expect you to know from the beginning. I’ll send you away nicely. Goodbye.]

Black light gathered at Lucifer’s fingertips. Gorba for death for the first time. However, something happened just then.

“Put out the fire straight away! Save the orcs!”

The soldiers of Metheus suddenly appeared with water buckets and started to put out the fires in the orc village. Lucifer slowly lowered his hand.

[You have good luck. If it wasn’t for his orders, I would’ve killed them all and destroyed Metheus... well, there will be a chance next time.]

Lucifer spoke these words and flicked his fingers. Then the space split and a portal was created. The place he was headed now was the East Continent. He has tried to find and quietly deal with the autumn balancer, but he couldn’t find any traces. Therefore, he was going to kill the blue sky dragon who was called the spring balancer.

‘The order of their deaths doesn’t matter.’

Lucifer stepped into the portal and soon disappeared. Gorba closed his eyes as his consciousness disappeared. Voices could be heard through the darkness. “Over here! Gorba is over here!”

Around this time, I was staring at the broken Orca Kingdom.

“The barrier has disappeared!”

“Everybody, prepare for battle!”

“Go straight to the demon king!”

Aries stood next to me with folded arms.

[...It looks like it was successful. I hadn’t expected you to make the one inside the barrier Kirkinos’ Star’s Beloved.]

Like Aries, I was watching the barrier disappearing with folded arms. Two-thirds of the barrier had already disappeared.

I quickly got onto Jinny and was ready to go to Drain.

Around the time that the barrier completely disappeared, Aries pulled out a weapon that was on her back.

[Full force! Charge!]

Waahhh!

The constellations rushed forward with a shout. The first thing I heard was Cat Baker’s flute.

Piriri-?

One of the best supporters, she had the power to inspire allies and increased their abilities.

[You have heard a celestial performance.]

[All stats have increased by 1.3 times.]

[Various mental conditions are released.]

This was the first time I had seen such a wide range increase in stats and the release of abnormal conditions. She was truly a member of the Seven Chivalrous Stars. The NPCs of the Orca Kingdom around Cat Baker started to wake up one by one.

“Uh, where is this?”

“What? What happened?”

“Why am I here?!”

I nodded as I watched the plan progress steadily. Then I took Jinny and flew toward Drain’s location right away. Fortunately, Drain wasn’t far away.

“Hey, hop on!”

“Buroder!”

People who hadn’t had the magic removed were howling as they moved toward Drain. I lifted Drain onto Jinny.

“Are you okay?”

“Phew. I really thought I was going to die.”

One of Drain’s hands had made a claw out of magic power. Drain smiled like he was aware of my gaze. “Huhu. This is really amazing. It cut the magic circle very well?”

“Raise your fist.”

“Like this?”

“Yes.”

I touched my fist against Drain’s fist. There were sparks and then I could see Kirkinos’ message.

[The crab star, ‘Kirkinos,’ is looking at you.]

“Kirkinos, you know the situation, right?”

[The crab star, ‘Kirkinos,’ is saying he knows.]

“Good. Teach this guy your abilities quickly. We are going to where Satan is.”

"Wat? Buroder. You are going to the place where that damn guy is? Wow, crazy...”

“Hold on tightly!”

“Kyahh!”
