CH 286

He was a foolish and straightforward person, who is good at expressing honest emotion with a good head that could hardly be called a ploy.

* 2 hours quickly passed by.

Luger was leaning against the wall of the academy, as if he hadn’t prepared anything or everything had already been prepared. When Leeha appeared, Luger only glanced at him for a moment, then took out an apple and bit it.

“At times like this, you usually ask “Are you ready?”, it is where people start to talk. Or ‘Would you like an apple?’. You don’t have to say a lot, but why are so quiet?”

Leeha pursed his lips and gave a sarcastic remark, but Luger did not even pay attention to him. “Okay. Well, there shouldn’t be any need to talk like that between us. I also said that I wouldn’t want to do this if it wasn’t for the quest.”

However, it wasn’t only Leeha’s concern.

He did not know when something like this quest will come again. The difficulty of the Three Musketeers co-op quest may also rise more and more.

‘Damn it. It is a problem if we start by being uncooperative.’

Since they were grouped into one group called the “Three Musketeers” on the Middle Earth anyway, Leeha thought he needed to work together, so he tried to approach Luger first even if he didn’t like it. However, if the other side did not respond, Leeha had no intention of forcing it.

“Let’s go.”

After some time, after Kidd arrived, Luger threw the core of the apple he was eating and took out a crystal ball.

“Follow me.”

There was no need to talk about how they would follow. Leeha and Kidd opened their skill window to check if the Chain Teleport skill was active.

If it was inactive, they would shoot Luger without any hesitation, but he had already set it to active.

Sseuk-!

Luger’s body disappeared and Leeha and Kidd also used Chain Teleport. The Three Musketeers skill.

Sssk-!

The lush city that had been green just now had disappeared in an instant.

“Wow…. It’s worse than I have heard.”

“Pheeew……. It would have been painful if the assimilation rate had been raised. Even at 50%, it feels so chilly.”

This was the reason why people could easily feel the cold even though the assimilation rate was low. Huuu-

When they breathed, thick lumps like the steam rising from a dumpling shop spew out.

“Hmm?

Why-”

“Shh.”

Luger frowned and looked around. Watching him lower his stance, Kidd lowered his stance as well.

‘Damn it, give a signal when you stop. He will het beaten up if he ever went into the army. He seems like a guy who doesn’t even know the squad signal system.’

Leeha, who was furthest behind, also lowered his stance.

They were not walking on ice like the arctic. The degree to which the thin layer of ice covered the land. There were places where the snow had not melted and accumulated. Along the ridge, there were also rocks and some plants adapted to the cold.

In other words, it meant that there was enough terrain to hide. The three of them hid on the hill and peeked.

“Troll Sentry. There’s still a long way to go until the northern troll district…

Luger’s ominous voice made Leeha and Kidd nervous.

Luger’s expression was clearly different from usual. If Luger, who had been here often, felt strange, it could be taken as an indication that the situation wasn’t normal.

And now, given the contents of the quest they received, there was only one thing that can be guessed under such circumstance.
