Chapter 35
The circumstances were as follows.
Entering the black cloud, Dojae dealt with the Red Oaks engulfed in black smoke differently than before.
Those bewitched by the black smoke were faster and stronger, but none came within five meters of Dojae’s toes.
How long had he been inside?
He spotted Kim Hwan-soo circling a specific area and Kang Young-chan sprawled on the ground.
They were inside a transparent barrier formed by mana in the shape of a doughnut, seemingly completely unaware of the barrier.
If it weren’t for his senses sharpened by the golem’s nerves, Dojae would have thought they were just stupidly spinning around.
Dojae approached the mana membrane and pressed his palm against it.
CRASH!
“Captain!”
“Lee Sergeant?”
The mana barrier shattered and dispersed into the air.
“What are you doing?”
“What is this sergeant doing here? I should have ordered you to join the main force.”
Dojae realized his mistake.
He realized he had radioed while meeting with Altein for the main quest.
“The radio’s broken.”
“Broken?”
“Yes. Not just the radio, but this too.”
Do-jae showed Kim Hwan-soo his smartphone screen.
Only after Kim Hwan-soo pulled out his own smartphone did he understand.
“Got it. Head back now. This place is beyond your level to handle.”
“Huh… Wait. I feel weird.”
Just as Kim Hwan-soo was about to send Do-jae back, Kang Young-chan stopped him.
Then.
“Hey, what the hell are you doing?!”
