How to Survive as a Player Chapter 108

#108

“For us… Stop paying attention… go away.”

“… You know that if the deal fails, you will be the first to die by my hands… . Remember that, you bastard.”

“f*ck off.”

Holding his rough breath, Sehyun finally uttered the last words. I could feel the shapely gaze of a man with his thighs pierced in the darkness. Sehyeon fired one more arrow in the direction where he could feel the danger.

It would be nice to be able to kill them with this, but to them, this was nothing more than a small rebellion. As the saying goes, the day a man brings a magic gun and points it out, everyone here becomes dangerous.

So, you might be able to use it once, but the second time was unlikely. Unless they were idiots, it never happened twice.

“Ha, f*ck… !”

The man, who was full of curses, soon disappeared, dragging the man with his thigh pierced. Only then was Sehyeon able to put down his crossbow. The surroundings were complete silence. No one opened their mouths or even let out a small sigh. Only Sehyun’s heavy breathing ran dangerously through the air.

The first to break the silence and open his mouth was Yoo Si-woon.

“… crime… sorry… do… . I am… .”

Yoo Si-woon, as if there were still tears left to shed after crying so much, fell down in front of Se-hyeon with tears streaming down his face. Sehyun opened her mouth, but then closed her mouth because she didn’t have the strength to spit it out.

In her arms was a frog man who had been suffering from a high fever since morning. She was trying hard to open her eyes and not lose consciousness, but her symptoms were getting worse.

I tried giving him elixir, but he refused so much that I had to give up after several attempts. Moreover, the moment you take the elixir, you become defenseless for a week. In this situation, Sehyun was not confident that she could protect the frog man.

If only there was a wound recovery potion.

It was a potion that I had never dared to try because it was not easy to make, but only now did I feel a deep sense of regret. Still, if they are Celestials, maybe they exist.

“… if… . Recovery potion… Is there… bite… .”

“yes yes… ! “Let me ask!”

Perhaps sensing that Se-hyeon’s condition was serious, Yoo Si-woon immediately began to ask for help from the Celestials crouching against the iron gate. It was the first time I heard a loud voice.

“If you have a wound healing potion, please give me one! please… Please help me… ! “If only one is fine, please!”

Despite the loud noises, the Celestial Race remained silent. The shadowy face reminded me of Yoo Si-un’s first meeting. Races that have no intention of standing up.

“please! I am… Ugh, I’m not good at it… I have so much to repay this person. So please help me! I must somehow… I will definitely pay you back… ! a little… Please help me, hmm… .”

Yu Si-un cried out at the top of his voice several times and asked for help. His actions made him raise his head one by one and look back at Yu Si-un. When he screamed until his voice was hoarse, for the first time, someone opened his mouth.

“Poetry, even if it’s a test piece… are you okay… ?”

“yes I’m okay! please… !”

“That way…” Let’s roll… .”

The sound of a bottle rolling could be heard in the dark. However, the medicine that rolled towards Yu Si-un was not just one. Dozens of them. The directions were all different. Medicine bottles rolled in from all directions, filling Yu Si-un’s face.

Everyone took out their own potions and added them without saying a word. Yoo Si-un expressed his gratitude several times in a tearful voice, reaching out his hand to grab each potion and bring it to Chae Se-hyeon.

“Sehyeon… . Many people gave it to me. Hurry up and eat it. “I’ll spray it on your wounds.”

The colors of the drugs in front of me were all different. These were all potions developed after independent experiments in their own empire.

Sehyun took one of the dogs, opened the cap, and placed it near the frog man’s mouth. Perhaps because he was thirsty or because he knew it was not an elixir, the frog man gulped down the medicine.

After emptying a total of five bottles, the boiling fever subsided and my pitifully closed eyes became quite clear. In addition, Sehyun rolled up his sleeves, which he had never seen before, and looked down at the frog man’s arms. As expected, the flesh was black and dead and rotting. It must have been painful, but it was pitiful to see him not even moaning, so I closed my eyes.

As the potion was poured onto the severed arm, the sound of burning flesh was heard and a foul smell came out. It must have been quite painful, so a small croaking sound came from within my arms.

“Frog.”

“yes… . me too… I’m going to do it now… .”

Sehyeon took a sip of the potion he could get his hands on. Then, he entrusted the wings to Yu Si-un and gave him the potion.

“Because it’s okay… Please pour it out.”

“… “Yes, I will pour it in gently.”

Yoo Si-woon held Se-hyeon’s wings, who were too scared to touch them, and slowly poured medicine into the wound, which was bleeding and rotting.

Chijijik-

The inside of the burner vibrated with terrible pain. Sehyeon clenched his teeth and held on. I strained my whole body to the point of breaking into a cold sweat and waited for a terrible time for the burning sound to go away.

“all… Is it okay… .”

“No more than this… There is no treatment, Sehyeon… .”

The wings, which looked as if they had been burned, could only receive first aid, and the wounds did not recover. Her wounds were also not healed. Still, it was enough. The terrible pain was greatly reduced, and there was no longer a rotten smell.

This was enough for now.

“are you okay. Now… It’s okay. Please pour some on Yoo Si-un’s feet too.”

Despite the name Jaseng Empire, Yu Si-un’s feet had not recovered at all since he came here. This was because the skill control device blocked all passive and active skills. This was the reason why Sehyeon could not recover with <Rapid Recovery>.

Yu Si-un felt like the potion was a waste, so he opened one and poured it on his feet. Perhaps because it wasn’t that serious, Yu Si-un’s foot showed signs of recovery quickly.

The remaining potions went into each person’s inventory. This was decided after Sehyun tried to stop him from giving it to him.

“and… Yoo Si-un.”

“Yes, please tell me.”

“Among the things I gave you, there might be a protective artifact… I will. About 3… yo. this.”

“Yes i have. W, here.”

“That… Inside each person’s clothes… I’m going to attach it. Easy to reach… “Hang it somewhere you can’t see it.”

Se-hyeon attached the brooch that Yoo Si-woon gave her to the inside of her chest where it was easy to reach. He turned the brooch slightly so that he could reach out and turn it right away in an emergency.

“And this… It should be written last. This way… When I go out. therefore… Unless you’re in danger of dying by then… “You have to save it.”

Yu Si-un and the frog man nodded without saying a word. Both of them followed Sehyeon’s instructions, steadily inserting the brooch into the inside of their clothes and fastening it. Only then did Sehyeon let out a long breath and leaned his back against the wall of the iron cage.

“Sehyun, you’re still very sick… . “Lean on me.”

“under… Because of the magic stone wave… .”

Sehyun smiled slightly as if she was okay with Yoo Si-woon and the frog man, who were looking at me with concern. Still, seeing that the symptoms were getting better was a sign that airship operations were changing from high-speed flights to low-speed flights.

We are getting closer to the next anchorage point.

“… “It used to be.”

It was at that time that I heard Yu Si-un’s deep words. As if he was anxious, his words were rambling, he looked back on the past several times, and only later did he start talking.

“I heard a passing report that hacking of the airship protection program was completed… . Park Seung-gun… There was a time when I was looking for a race that had expertise in engineering. It happened a long time ago. It was definitely… back then. They said the airship modification failed… “I may have succeeded now.”

remodeling.

At those words, Sehyeon looked back at the dark ship. If Yoo Si-un’s words are true, it means that Park Seung-gun hacked the protection program transmitted to the Engineering Empire, blocked the transmission, and modified the airship arbitrarily.

In other words, this airship was currently an illegally modified airship. The race that took part was probably another sacrificial empire.

“… “How much information does Yoo Si-un know?”

I hadn’t intentionally asked before, but I couldn’t help but ask now. Is it because of how amazing Yu Si-woon’s abilities are that they are dragging him around like this, or because of the amount of information they know, why they are binding him into such a powerful contract?

Yoo Si-woon raised his dark eyes and stared at Se-hyeon. She shared the difficult truth about her hard-to-read eyes.

“… Everything. “I know everything.”

“The person behind Park Seung-gun… “You mean?”

“… yes. All the empires we have passed through so far and the empires we will pass through. I am… All the empires on Park Seung-gun’s list… “I know everything.”

An unimaginable thought suddenly passed through my mind. Maybe that’s why I was reluctant to ask any more questions. Yu Si-un’s eyes sank down again. As the conversation ended, an unfamiliar silence came.

The dark room became gloomy again. Sehyun, who was looking at the Celestial Race with their heads bowed, recalled what happened a little while ago.

The helping hands.

Through that action, Sehyeon realized that most of the Celestials here were road players. The potions they gave were all experimental, not commercialized yet and could only be used by road players.

In this case, what could be inferred was that they were also an exploitative empire with unequal contracts like Yoo Si-un.
